text: IT Strategy and Planning services help you link your business plans and metrics to your IT architecture and operations in ways that create lasting value through our Business Strategy and Network Planning, and Business and Financial Analysis services. IT Strategy Defining your IT strategy over a three- to four-year period When facing a significant IT initiative or service rollout, organizations need to address difficult questions and decisions long before a technical design can be initiated. These questions may include: What technology will best enable me to attain my business goals? Will I achieve a positive return on my investment (ROI)? What options do I have available to fulfill my IT service needs? Technology choices are expanding and changing at an astonishing pace, while optimal IT solutions are becoming more elusive. With the ubiquitous need for strong ROI in any IT initiative, upfront planning and analysis are essential to success. The RIZVIONICS IT Strategy service helps you analyze business plans, product goals, and any pending mergers or acquisitions to identify your corporate objectives. RIZVIONICS then categorizes current technologies, current development plans, and new IT initiatives into lifecycles to provide a roadmap for meeting the identified business goals. Our IT Strategy service helps you: Establish clear IT goals and objectives Identify application portfolios and technology solutions that align with specific business needs Create a roadmap to implement technology solutions to better achieve business goals Business and Financial Analysis Making well-founded IT decisions that support your corporate goals RIZVIONICS business consultants identify the underlying business goals and needs of your organization and understand the unique market forces driving your business. For any one IT objective, there may be multiple technical and operational solutions. RIZVIONICS analyzes the benefits and drawbacks of each option, giving you the vital information you need to move forward with confidence. By analyzing the financial benefits and costs, the true anticipated return from any project can be reviewed before spending a single dollar on technical designs. Business and Financial Analysis provides an evaluation of business objectives and a complete financial analysis to determine the costs, benefits, risks, and payback from a variety of IT decisions. This analysis may be employed across a number of technology decisions and includes an analysis of providing the service internally or externally (i.e., outsourcing). Business and Financial Analysis helps you: Quantify costs and benefits of IT investments Estimate payback of existing or target IT investments Clarify benefits and risks of short- and long-term investments Solutions Planning Providing the necessary planning and detailed roadmap to integrate solutions RIZVIONICS is uniquely qualified to deliver IT Strategy and Integration services because of the strength of our business consulting and technology expertise. Our engineers and consultants have developed the most comprehensive set of proven methodologies and intellectual capital used in the industry today to produce fast and quantifiable results. The RIZVIONICS Solutions Planning service helps you develop the plans and communication methods that will guide a large IT initiative through to successful completion. Our Solutions Planning service provides: Detailed architectural definition for a specific initiative or solution Budgeting for design and implementation Project planning for the design phase Governance plan to guide the project to completion Roadmap for solution integration RFP Planning and Analysis Providing pre- and post-contract planning services in an RFI/RFP scenario RIZVIONICS's IT Strategy and Integration services help you analyze your business plans, objectives, and financials to define clear IT objectives. We then guide you through selecting and implementing the best technology solution to achieve those goals through ROI studies, RFI/RFP development and management, and integration planning. The RIZVIONICS RFP Planning and Analysis service may include the following: Analysis of insourcing and outsourcing options Development of RFP/RFI content Creation of selection criteria and evaluation of providers Definition of contractual service level agreements Management of the RFP lifecycle Risk Assessment/Business Impact Analysis Develop a mitigation strategy that aligns technology with business risk Businesses today depend heavily on networking technology, automated systems, and processes. A disruption for even a few days could cause severe financial loss and even threaten survival. The continued operations of an organization depend on management awareness of potential disasters, a plan to minimize disruptions of critical functions, and the capability to recover operations expediently and successfully. RIZVIONICS's Risk Assessment/Business Impact Analysis supports your enterprise by ensuring technology investments are appropriately aligned with business risks. The primary objective is to provide a mitigation strategy that is focused on the impact potential disasters could have on your organization. By properly measuring the risks, quantifying potential impacts upon the organization, and proposing mitigation strategies that are tightly aligned with the levels of impact, RIZVIONICS can help your company develop mitigation solutions that are appropriate for the level of risk your organization. Activities performed as part of this service include: Business Assessment – Evaluation and quantification of business functions and technologies that could be impacted by a disaster. Risk Analysis - Assessment of potential for threats to the business/technology functions Impact Analysis – Quantification of the impact of risks to the business Mitigation strategy – Operations and technology strategies that incorporate business impact calculations Recovery Planning The knowledge to protect your business in the event of disaster Ensuring the continuity or recovery of your networks, systems, and business processes in the face of computer system downtime is critical for your company's survival. While a combination of online backup, disaster recovery, and high- availability tools can help you maximize uptime – technology is only part of the equation. RIZVIONICS offers a Recovery Planning service to help you protect your business in the event of disaster. Understanding the level of risk associated with applications, processes, and technology enable the proper investment decisions for business continuity planning. The methodology continues by recommending and deploying the correct disaster recovery strategy for your environment. The last phase of the methodology ensures that each business unit clearly understands what level of information technology capability will be available during the recovery process. Finally, processes are put in place to ensure change control and ongoing process improvement occurs, keeping the business continuity plan operationally sound and up to date. Key features of the service include: Develop and define recovery time objectives and recovery point objectives Develop recovery plan and strategies Audit and Testing RIZVIONICS verifies the BC/DR business objectives and aligns the appropriate regulations and requirements into a set of program objectives. RIZVIONICS then audits the BC/DR program—policy, recovery plans, and contracts—against this set of program objectives. RIZVIONICS continues by planning and leading the testing of the BC/DR plan. RIZVIONICS BC/DR Audit and Testing produces the following deliverables: BC/DR Program Objectives – Cataloguing of program objectives and discrete requirements and references. BC/DR Audit – A detailed validation of your BC/DR program's effectiveness and its compliance with applicable governing regulations. BC/DR Test Report – Analysis of your company's execution of the BC/DR recovery plan as measured during an RIZVIONICS-lead disaster recovery test. ITIL/ITSM Assessment, Design, and Implementation Optimize IT services with a best-practices performance measurement framework In today's environment, organizations continually struggle to ensure that their IT services meet the demands of their business requirements. Having defined and well-documented service management processes with measurable metrics for benchmarking can help ensure efficient use of resources and help the organization focus on business critical services. It is imperative that IT organizations optimize the performance of their existing models before investing in developing these models from scratch. RIZVIONICS provides a suite of ITIL/ITSM services: The ITIL/ITSM Assessment service provides a complete evaluation and review of your current process capability against the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL), including the provision, support, and management of effective IT services. The ITIL/ITSM Design service completes the picture by helping you create integrated service management processes that enable you to meet business goals while making the best use of available resources. The ITIL/ITSM Implementation service provides proven ITIL process templates developed from years of experience with ITIL and other industry standards, networking technology, organizational development and related tools, eliminating much of the cost and time spent preparing for the implementation phase. RIZVIONICS consultants use a triangulated approach via in-depth interviews with key stakeholders and primary process owners in the IT organization against a proven model based on ITIL/ITSM, industry standards, and best practices. We then make specific and achievable recommendations on how to focus your resources for maximum return and benefit to your organization.

TUESDAY, April 20 (HealthDay News) -- A guideline from the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and the College of American Pathologists (CAP) has been issued with the intention of improving the accuracy of immunohistochemical testing for estrogen and progesterone receptors in breast cancer. The guideline was published online April 19 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology and the Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine.
M. Elizabeth H. Hammond, M.D., of the University of Utah School of Medicine in Salt Lake City, and colleagues recommend that estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PgR) status be determined on all invasive breast cancers and cancer recurrences.
The authors further advise that assays be considered positive if at least 1 percent of the tumor nuclei in the sample are positive in the presence of expected reactivity of internal and external controls. The time from tumor removal to fixation should be limited to no more than an hour, and tissue specimens must be fixed in 10-percent neutral buffered formalin for six to no more than 72 hours before processing, the authors recommend.
"The main goal of the ASCO/CAP ER/PgR guideline is to improve the accuracy of test results and ensure that patients receive appropriate care like endocrine therapy, as it has the potential to improve survival and save lives," Antonio C. Wolff, M.D., co-chair of the ASCO/CAP Hormone Receptor Testing in Breast Cancer Panel, said in a prepared statement.
Several co-authors disclosed relationships with testing-related companies.

East withstands Harlem run
By Matt Nestor
Sports Columnist
The East E-Rabs had done almost everything right for three quarters Friday, Dec. 10.
After closing out the second quarter on a 17-0 run to go up by 14 at the half, and still holding a 5-point lead after three, East was holding a 3-point lead with 34 seconds left in the game with the ball.
But after an ill-advised pass by point guard Javon Henderson gave the ball back to Harlem, and with the ball in the hands of the hot-shooting Michael Proscia of Harlem, the East fans were nervous.
But as he had all night, East senior Alonte Holliday dug in his heels, came up with a steal with 20 seconds left, then calmly put down two free throws to cap a 22-point effort and give the E-Rabs (5-2, 2-1) a 67-62 victory over Harlem (5-2, 1-2).
"My heart was beating so hard," Holliday said of his game-clinching free throws. "My dad always tells me to just breathe. As long as I breathe, it's all good, and I can calm myself down."
The difference in the game for East was their play on the offensive glass. Harlem shot 5 percent better from the field and shot better from the free-throw line.
But a dominating effort on the offensive glass allowed the E-Rabs to take 12 more shots from the field and also shoot six more free throws. Holliday and Deontry Austin, who scored 16 for East, consistently got two and three shots off a teammate's miss.
"We were just playing catch with it," Holliday said. "Someone would shoot it, and another man would get the ball and put it back."
East out-hustled Harlem for much of the game, which helped lead to the massive run to end the second quarter. East coach Roy Sackmaster said his team is good at runs because of their aggressiveness, and that probably was the reason for the win.
"I think we're going to be a team of runs. We thrive off of each other's energy," he said. "It ended up being the difference in the game. When they made a run back at us, it was just to get close instead of the other way around."
For Harlem, it was a quick start on the road, which usually leads to a victory. The Huskies led 17-12 after the first quarter, behind 9 points from Tre Wagner.
Then, the senior was shut down after that, however, only hitting two free throws to finish with 11. Will Kerr was 5 of 6 from the field to lead Harlem with 13.
East recovered from the quick start thanks to the second-quarter run, which was kicked off by Andrew Lantz. The junior hit three straight three-pointers off the bench to keep East in the game early.
"That's another nice thing about our team is our depth," Sackmaster said. "We had a couple of kids who came in and gave us a new look. It's nice having a shooter that can come off the bench and give us a lift."
More importantly for East, the win was a good sign for the future. Even while shooting 38 percent from the field, and under 50 percent from the free-throw line, and falling behind early, they found a way to win the game.
"Despite coming out flat with them coming out ready to go, and the fact that we didn't do a lot of the little things that we normally do," Sackmaster said. "To get a win, that is a sign that we're a decent team."
Elsewhere in NIC-10 action:
→ Anthony Strickland scored 14 to lead five players in double figures as Auburn (6-1, 3-0) stayed undefeated in the conference, topping Belvidere 86-45. Belvidere (4-3, 0-3) was led by Mike Hernandez, who scored 12 points.
→ Guilford (6-4, 3-0) kept pace with Auburn at the top of the conference. Marcus Hardison led the Vikings with 13, while four other players scored 11 points, leading Guilford to a 61-43 win over Freeport (3-3, 1-2).
→ Boylan (5-2, 2-1) got 11 points from Chris Miller to help Boylan survive a 34-29 slugfest against Hononegah (5-2, 1-2).

To mark IDC Herzliya's 20th anniversary, we spent a day following Prof. Uriel Reichman, IDC's founder and president, and Jonathan Davis, VP for External Relations, around its delightful campus.
Some recent developments fuel speculation as to what President Obama has in mind for the next four years in several areas.
Last week's decision by a federal appeals court invalidating the president's so-called recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board raises questions as to whether he will put a brake on his habit of embracing novel and extravagant interpretations of his powers vis-a-vis Congress.
And what of Mr. Obama's seeming acquiescence in outgoing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's telling a congressional committee investigating the Benghazi attack that, in so many words, what happened was really none of its business? Does his silence indicate he hasn't rethought his dismissive attitude toward the legislative branch?
And did the testimony of John Kerry at his confirmation hearings to succeed Ms. Clinton as secretary of state portend a return to the discredited Mideast policies of Mr. Obama's first two years in office?
On Friday a federal appeals court ruled that the president violated the constitution last year when he invoked his power to make appointments without the "advise and consent" function of the Senate to install three nominees to the National Labor Relations Board. The president's nominees had been facing serious Republican opposition so, on January 4, 2012, when Congress was on a holiday break but had not formally recessed, President Obama seized the moment and made his appointments.
The problem is that in the time-honored fashion followed by both Democrats and Republicans, for a few minutes every three days a handful of GOP senators appeared on the Senate floor with one rising to the rostrum, banging the gavel and declaring the Senate in session. Historically this practice had always passed muster under Senate rules. Mr. Obama, though, rejected what he called a "sham" and asserted the right to decide something that was thought to be the prerogative of the Senate.
The decision is a complicated one and the court went beyond the immediate question of the NRB appointments. Yet at the very least it puts into sharp focus the important issue of our president's way of dealing with rules that stymie his initiatives: he trashes them.
It will be recalled that he acted similarly with respect to federal immigration laws when he disagreed with provisions that called for certain illegal aliens to be deported. He simply ordered the Immigration and Nationalization Service not to enforce the law –despite the fact that Congress had repeatedly declined to amend the legislation to his liking.
The president made no public statement about Secretary Clinton's testimony before two congressional committees seeking to learn what the White House and State Department roles were before, after and during the Benghazi attack and why there was such confusion in official statements about the run-up to it. He also said nothing of substance in a joint "60 Minutes" interview with Ms. Clinton.
Indeed, the gist of Ms. Clinton's testimony was that she relied on subordinates and had no personal knowledge. And she gave a non sequitur response to a question about why, initially, official statements drew attention away from any terrorist involvement:
Was it because of a protest, or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided they'd go kill some Americans? What difference, at this point, does it make? It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, Senator.
The president, as noted, has yet to comment.
And did Mr. Kerry speak for the president during his nomination hearing? This is not just idle curiosity. The Jerusalem Post story on the Kerry hearing was titled, "Kerry Wants To Hit Ground Running on Peace Talks." Sounds a lot like what President Obama's priorities were four years ago.
More troubling still was his analysis that the furtherance of U.S. interests around the world is being bottled up by the lack of an agreement between Israel and the Palestinians: "So much of what we need to aspire to achieve and what we need globally…all of this is tied to what can and doesn't happen with respect to Israel/Palestine."
Mr. Kerry inadvertently called to mind the failed Obama outreach to the Muslim world with his response to a question about the U.S. going through with its agreement to give Egypt F-16s and Abrams tanks even after Egyptian President Morsi referred to Jews and Israelis as descendants of apes and pigs and said Muslim children should be taught to hate them.

This is not correct. The people affected by this order are in fact eligible to be in the United States legally; he was just waiving the previous rule that required them to go through the hassle and expense of returning to their home countries. It is the kind of reduction in government regulation that conservatives used to support, until they realized that there was more mileage in bashing foreigners and bashing Obama.
"Yet at the very least it puts into sharp focus the important issue of our president's way of dealing with rules that stymie his initiatives: he trashes them."
The Republicans are every bit as much at fault here. Not liking that law that gives workers collective bargaining rights, they refuse to allow votes on the members of the Board that enforces those rights. Unable to get a majority in Congress to take away collective bargaining rights, they simply make it impossible to enforce the law.
And the same thing is true for the other recess appointment, of the head of the Consumer Financial Protection Board. Believing that abusive financial institutions should be able to run roughshod over consumers, and objecting to the fact that the previous Congress had enacted some reforms that put some limits on those abuses, yet unable to repeal the law, they simply make it impossible to enforce the law by refusing to allow a vote on the head of the Board.
This editorial criticized Obama for refusing to enforce laws he doesn't like. The editorial would be more effective had it also pointed out that Republicans actively prevent the enforcement of laws that THEY don't like.

Article alerts[edit]
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the
display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Barrington (name)[edit]
I would appreciate someone to look at Barrington (name) and tell me if it has the right categories, if I have added a correct lede, Barrington is both a given name and a surname." There was no lede before I added that.--DThomsen8 (talk) 22:37, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
- I can't say whether or not the list has the right categories, but I will point out that Barrington presumably was a surname before it became a given name, and that, at least in English-speaking countries, any surname may be used as a given name. J. D. Crutchfield | Talk 23:02, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
- thank you for that information. The only surname in Category:Surname is Barrington (name), so I doubt this particular category.--DThomsen8 (talk) 23:14, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
Category:Surname and Category:Surnames[edit]
I hope that I now understand the differences between Category:Surname and Category:Surnames. I see that Surname is much smaller than Surnames. In category Surname I see the specific surnames:
- Barrington (name), Ahmadzai, Coffey (surname), Dehmel, Mahato, and Wassan, and the name Harry Hon Hai Wong. I would make sure that those specific names be in Category:Surnames, and that the name Harry Hon Hai Wong not be in either category. Please tell me if I am wrong to make these changes.--DThomsen8 (talk) 19:41, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- It looks to me like you've got it right. Go for it. SchreiberBike talk 23:19, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
"Personal name" versus "given name"[edit]
I haven't visited this project before, but as one of the editors from WikiProject Classical Greece and Rome, I've been working on articles related to names (mainly Roman names) for several years, after a long period of researching names in various languages on my own. One of the issues that I've avoided wading into during this time was the definition of "personal name." But after spending many days working on this article and that article touching on names, I'm finding myself bumping up against this question repeatedly.
Webster's Third New International Dictionary defines personal name as "a name (as the praenomen or the forename) by which an individual is intimately known or designated and which may be displaced or supplemented by a surname, a cognomen, or a royal name." This is the definition I've always used; it contrasts personal name with surname, but indicates that it includes praenomina or forenames. Given name simply cross-references the terms Christian name and forename.
I do find lots of dictionaries supporting the use of "given name" to mean the same thing as "personal name," but I don't find any that define "personal name" to include surnames. I checked the American Heritage Dictionary (cited for the definition of "given name" in that article), Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary, American College Dictionary, Webster's New World Dictionary, Random House Dictionary, and Funk & Wagnalls' Standard College Dictionary, most of which, oddly enough, used the same definition word-for-word under "given name" but provided nothing under "personal name."
At the end of this process the only source indicating that "personal name" means something other than the definition here used for "given name" is Wikipedia itself, for which the only source cited is the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, which can't possibly be reliable authority for this definition.
I suppose that whether "given name" should be retitled "personal name" is a matter of taste, since the two terms are synonymous; I'd like to do that, since I think "given name" sounds rather confusing, while "personal name" clearly contrasts with "family name" or "surname." But if the majority disagrees with me, it's not a disaster. But I do think that the article personal name clearly has the wrong title, since it describes the opposite of a personal name; that article is about names in general (perhaps the confusion arises from the word "personal," which in "personal name" refers to a name that belongs to an individual, rather than a family; the author of the article may have assumed that it meant "names of people" as opposed to places or things).
My suggestion would be to revise the "personal name" article to eliminate the incorrect use of that term, and redirect personal name to given name, indicating in the lead paragraph that the terms are synonymous (unless, of course, the majority agrees with changing "given name" to "personal name"). Of course, that still leaves the question of what the article now titled "personal name" should be called; for now I'm thinking perhaps "Names (people)". Can I stir any interest with this proposal? P Aculeius (talk) 04:01, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- I think P Aculeius's expectation that if it were a valid phrase, "personal name" would be found in dictionaries is a reasonable expectation. Of course, this isn't true for all encyclopedia article titles, but I think it should be for this one. Since P Aculieus, after a reasonable search, was able to find the term in only one dictionary, I think it is unsuitable as an article title. Perhaps "Personal name" should be turned into a redirect page pointing to the various plausible meanings.
- I think the "Given name" article is moderately well-titled. It suggests that the name is chosen by the name-giver, rather than dictated by law or custom. So the family name is legally required or at least there is some social pressure to assign the family name in a particular way; in the Anglo-Irish tradition it would be the father's surname. FOr the given name, in the Anglo-Irish tradition, any name can be chosen, although there it is usually chosen from a large set of words considered suitable as given names. From what I was told by a friend at university, in China the given name is not freely chosen but rather chosen according to a Generation poem, although our "Given name" article suggest this is only one possible way to choose a Chinese given name. "Personal name" would be a poor choice to mean "given name" because it might though to distinguish from other kinds of names, such as corporate names or domain names. In that context, it might be thought to be a synonym for something like "full name".
- As for what "full name" means, I throw up my hands. Have a look at the forum section of http://www.notaryrotary.com. There are all kinds of tales of woe about whether a full name must include a middle name (when one has been assigned to an individual), whether a generational suffix is part of a full name, or which official document should be used to determine what an individual's full name is. Jc3s5h (talk) 11:47, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- I guess my thought process rambled a little as I consulted various authorities. My original intent had been to ask that "personal name" be used as the title of the "given name" article instead of the one currently titled "personal name." Since I was familiar with the term as a synonym for "given name," one used in scholarly sources, I expected confirmation from more than one source (although Webster's Third is a better source than any of the others I cited). But as the two terms are synonymous, and the editors here seem to be much more familiar with "given name" I suppose that's a losing battle.
- Nevertheless, "personal name" definitely means the same thing as "given name", and does not mean someone's full nomenclature. So rather than create a redirect page linking to several other articles, it should automatically redirect to "given name" (which ought, in fairness, to contain the term in the lead, even if the title remains the same). The sentence contrasting the two terms is in error. This is confirmed not just by Webster's Third, but my compact OED (which I forgot to consult last night), which explicitly states that the primary meaning of "personal" is "having to do with the individual, as opposed to the community," rather than "relating to people, as opposed to objects or places." The article currently named "personal name" misuses the term to mean something that it does not.
- That still leaves the question of what term or phrase should be used to contrast what's now covered under the title "personal name" from the subject of "given name." Last night I suggested "Names (people)"; perhaps "Names of people" or "Names in different cultures". Or perhaps we should consider using "Name" or "Names" (both currently lead to disambiguation pages, but "Name" is an automatic redirect to "Names (disambiguation)" so that could stay if "Names" were the title); I think the word might be primary with reference to people, and only secondary with reference to places and other things.
- Whatever the title, the lead needs to explain that there's no universally-agreed upon term for a person's full nomenclature (unless we say "a person's full nomenclature"), and that "among the terms commonly used are 'full name', etc. The lead should also distinguish these from "personal" or "given" names, which exclude names identifying a person as a member of a community (family, tribe, clan, etc.). Does anybody agree with this? P Aculeius (talk) 13:57, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- It's worse than "there's no universally-agreed upon term for a person's full nomenclature". There's no universal agreement on what characters are part of a person's name, and what characters are a description. From what I've read, in some state of the US, a suffix like Junior is considered a description, just like "eye color: brown" that might appear on a driver's license. Jc3s5h (talk) 14:41, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- Indeed, this is one of the pitfalls I run into as a genealogist; whether to record "Junior" and "Senior" (or II, III, IV) as part of the name. People are all over the place on this, but it seems that before the 20th century there was never any doubt that they were descriptive only. Until quite recently (in historical terms, at least) someone labeled "Junior" would drop that once the "Senior" died, and if he had a son by the same name, the son would become "Junior." Nor was there any requirement that the people so referred to be father and son, or even related. Anyone taking a list (such as a tax list or census) could simply use "Junior" and "Senior" as means of referring to the older and younger people of a particular name, irrespective of any relationship. This is why when I record people's names in genealogies, I always omit these suffixes. It's a little different in Wikipedia, of course, since we go by the most familiar "name," using that word in a broad sense, rather than a technical one. P Aculeius (talk) 15:59, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- Of course Junior is a description: it means, "the younger", and when the elder of the same name dies, it is customarily dropped, unless both elder and younger are well-known—as in the case of Oliver Wendell Holmes, père et fils—so that the distinction remains important beyond the life of the father; or when the younger has become famous during the life of the elder, as in the case of Roy Blount, Jr., so that Jr. has become as it were a part of his "brand". Even then, Senior and Junior remain adjectives descriptive of the persons who bear a name, not part of the proper noun itself. I can imagine that a state might declare otherwise by law, but it would go against general usage, and I'm not aware that any has done so. Is Jc3s5h? That would presumably require a formal change of name when the father died, unless the son were willing to keep the now-incorrect descriptor.
- As for personal name, I strongly agree that—in English usage anyway—it means the same thing as given name, and refers to the name by which an individual person is distinguished from other members of her or his family. Anything on Wikipedia that suggests otherwise should be boldly revised. In every English-speaking society I'm aware of, "full name" or "full, legal name" means one or more personal names, plus surname or family name. Generational descriptors may be added to aid in distinguishing among individuals who bear the same personal names, but are not strictly part of the full name. See, e.g., Black's Law Dictionary, fifth ed. (1979):
- A person's "name" consists of one or more Christian or given names and one surname or family name. It is the distinctive characterization in words by which one is known and distinguished from others, and description, or abbreviation, is not the equivalent of a "name."
- J. D. Crutchfield | Talk 16:22, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- I am not aware of a state law or binding regulation that explicitly says a suffix is part of a person's name. But consider that the Centers for Disease control recommend all states adopt a birth certificate described on this web page. The certificate contains a box 1, and within that box it states "1. CHILD'S NAME (First, Middle, Last, Suffix)". This certificate has been adopted within many states. It creates the impression among regular folks, and minor state and local officials, that the suffix is part of the name. If you happen to butt heads with a minor official who goes by the birth certificate rather than Black's Law Dictionary, you better have tens of thousands of dollars on hand to sue the minor official and get a judge to compel the minor official to obey the law. Jc3s5h (talk) 17:41, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- Well, if we're in agreement on what "personal name" does not mean, then I'd be happy to undertake some revisions. But we'd still have to come up with a new title for that page. Looking over what's on it, do any other ideas come to mind? You raise a good point, Jc3s5h. Today's record-driven society tends to regard a piece of paper (or its electronic equivalent) as the instrument that defines a person's name, to the exclusion of both custom and the intent of the parents. I suppose if it were up to me I would make clear that suffixes of this type are not part of the name, but exist solely for convenience. And of course I would provide some method by which the original intention of the parents would be legally binding without the need for a court order to reform errors. Sadly it's not up to me! P Aculeius (talk) 18:52, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- I would simply move the "Personal name" article to "Name". The primary meaning of name is the word that characterizes and distinguishes a person (as shown by, e.g., the entry from Black's Law Dictionary I quoted above). Other uses of the word name are mostly qualified somehow (e.g., corporate name, place-name). If some qualifier were deemed necessary here (maybe to distinguish it from the article on animals' names?), I'd grudgingly suggest "Name (person)" or "Name (of a person)".
- Now that I think about it, of course another encyclopedia has long-since solved this problem. There, "personal name" is used for any name applicable to a person, not just for the given name. J. D. Crutchfield | Talk 22:26, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
I think the Britannica entry pretty much rules out any expectation that people will understand "personal name" to be a synonym for "given name". I don't have Black's Law Dictionary handy, and I wouldn't want to agree or disagree with Jdcrutch's interpretation of it without seeing the whole entry, including the word which is being defined. But American Heritage Dictionary 3rd ed. gives, as the first definition for "name", "A word or words by which an entity is designated and distinguished from others." So I don't think we can presume "name" means name of a natural person. It can also mean a name of a corporation, political entity, machine, ship, poodle, etc. Jc3s5h (talk) 23:40, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- I think that's overstating the case. As I'm sure we all know, words and phrases can have multiple meanings. I can't possibly argue that the Britannica is wrong in using the definition that it did, even if I learned the phrase in a different context, and prefer it (and even if Webster's disagrees with EB). Ironically, I am a lawyer, but it didn't occur to me to check Black's Law Dictionary. Two points! But in the law we call this kind of thing a "conflict of authority." Because we can't resolve it, we have to acknowledge both uses. In other words, "personal name" can be used in either a narrow sense or a broad sense. It's a synonym, not an antonym, of "given name", and so the use here, which simply states that it's the opposite of "given name," is still wrong. But, it can be used to mean the opposite, so that also has to be anticipated. There's no chance of changing the name of the "given name" article, but I guess I can live with that.
- As for what to call the other article, I still don't know. But, having participated (in a very minor capacity) on a couple of other debates about article naming policies, there's something I think should be considered. It's the policy at WP:PTOPIC. Essentially, it provides guidance for whether a term with multiple uses should lead directly to a disambiguation page, or to one particular use, with a separate disambiguation page linked via a hatnote. The relevant question is whether a specific use is "primary" for the term. I can't phrase it any better than the policy: "A topic is primary for a term, with respect to usage, if it is highly likely—much more likely than any other topic, and more likely than all the other topics combined—to be the topic sought when a reader searches for that term." So, granted that there are lots of types of names, not just names of people. But when I ask myself what I'd be looking for when typing "name", I'd expect to see names for people before any other type of name. So, we could call that use primary. Or come up with another title. P Aculeius (talk) 01:42, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
- "Name" would be among the earliest words a baby would learn while learning to speak. Babies learn the name of the family pet right along with the names of other family members. I had a niece who had a pet female dog named Gretel. When she was two years old, as far as she was concerned, every female of any species, other than her mother, was named Gretel. So I really don't know if most readers would be thinking of "name for a natural person" when entering "Name" in the search box. Jc3s5h (talk) 02:10, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
- True, it wouldn't necessarily be restricted to people. Or humans, anyway. But it's actually the same type of name, whether you apply it to a human or an animal. The example you gave was a human name, although I don't think it's fundamentally different if you talk about a human named "Mac" or a dog named "Spot." I think both would fit under the same heading, as opposed to "Empire State Building," "Dodge Ram," "U.S.S. Intrepid," or "Enid, Oklahoma." But of course we can sidestep the issue if we can think of a different (or more specific) title. "Human names" doesn't sound like a good article title to me. "Personal nomenclature" at least avoids confusion with the use of "personal name" to mean an individual name, but it also doesn't sound at all intuitive. There has to be something better... P Aculeius (talk) 04:05, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
- The entry I quoted from Black's Law Dictionary is Name, and the definition given there is as follows:
- The designation of an individual person, or of a firm or corporation.
- Then follows the passage I quoted above, after which come several cross-references, followed by sub-entries for Corporate name, Distinctive name (as used in the regulation of trade), and Generic name (of a product).
- In light of this discussion and the Britannica 11th article, I'm coming around to the view that Personal name is the correct title for an article on the names of human beings, but that personal name should not be contrasted with or distinguished from given name; nor should it be identified, as the present article has it, with the full name (defined as given name, middle name, and surname) for all purposes and in all cases. In many cultures, past and present, the given name is the only personal name an individual has. In some cultures, and in some cases, a person has no personal name, and is designated by his or her relationship to another. Many, if not most, cultures do not follow the pattern of "First (given) name, Middle (given) name, Last (family) name". Even in the English-speaking world, that pattern may not be universal: I have the impression that Americans tend to use multiple given names a good bit more than Englishmen, even today. Personal name, it seems to me, is the term by which a person is individually designated, and that may or may not include various components, depending on the person's relationship with the speaker, his or her social status, the circumstances under which she or he is spoken to or spoken of, and a myriad of other potential variables. In some contexts, I am "J. D. Crutchfield"; in some, plain "Crutchfield"; in others, "Jim"; in still others, "Crutch", and so on. All of those are personal names for me, because they all, in context, refer only to me—even though none is my full, legal name.
- So the article, Personal name (or at least the lede), needs rewriting, but I think the title should probably stay as it is. I would also be in favor of a more generic article entitled Name, which, like the Britannica 11th article, would treat of all kinds of proper nouns, and could be branched to various main articles for the several kinds of names.

- Okay, I've had a go at both articles, leaving Personal name at its current title, but adding a hatnote directing to Given name, and mentioning the various common alternative terms for both types of names in each article. I also revised a few paragraphs for clarity, and added note sections for information that seemed relevant but potentially distracting in the main text; otherwise I left the basic structures of the articles alone. Have a look and let me know if this seems okay. I'm still not convinced about the title of "Personal name", though. After revising it, I think it might be better under "Full name." P Aculeius (talk) 15:03, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
- Does the title of the article have to be a noun, I agree that Personal Name is ambiguous, but Personal Naming gets over this and while referring only to human names, clearly includes multiple possibilities.Manninagh1958 (talk) 07:11, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

- I'm not sure that gets around any difficulties. Technically "naming" as a process would still be a noun. A gerund, I believe. But I think that would be confusing. How would "personal naming" be distinguishable from the concept of a "personal name?" I'm afraid what we have here is a conundrum that arises from differences in usage. The term "personal name" can mean two different things, and each meaning clearly contradicts the other. At this stage there's little to recommend a change other than personal preference, and there's no consensus for that. But my impression is that "personal naming" would involve moving the article to a title so ambiguous that nobody would have a clue what it meant before visiting the article. And almost immediately there would be calls to move it back. So for now I think our best course of action is to leave things as they are. Until there's a consensus for changing "given name" to "personal name" and "personal name" to "full name" or something similar, the status quo seems to be the best solution.

Leaflet For Wikiproject Anthroponymy At Wikimania 2014[edit]
Hi all,
My name is Adi Khajuria and I am helping out with Wikimania 2014 in London.
One of our initiatives is to create leaflets to increase the discoverability of various wikimedia projects, and showcase the breadth of activity within wikimedia. Any kind of project can have a physical paper leaflet designed - for free - as a tool to help recruit new contributors. These leaflets will be printed at Wikimania 2014, and the designs can be re-used in the future at other events and locations.
This is particularly aimed at highlighting less discoverable but successful projects, e.g:
• Active Wikiprojects: Wikiproject Medicine, WikiProject Video Games, Wikiproject Film
• Tech projects/Tools, which may be looking for either users or developers.
• Less known major projects: Wikinews, Wikidata, Wikivoyage, etc.
• Wiki Loves Parliaments, Wiki Loves Monuments, Wiki Loves ____
• Wikimedia thematic organisations, Wikiwomen's Collaborative, The Signpost
For more information or to sign up for one for your project, go to:

Requested move[edit]
There is an ongoing discussion about moving Gomez to Gómez, which can be seen here. Any and all opinions would be very much obliged! Corvoe (speak to me) 11:44, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
There is an article at Nalawade which is listed as belonging to WikiProject Anthroponymy. At present it does not have a lead section that would indicate what the article is about. It is unclear whether the article is about a surname, a clan, a caste or some other grouping. The references do not go to the topic, but all seem to be specific to individuals. At present the article is a miscellaneous collection of information and is subject to being sent to Articles for deletion (AfD) discussions if it is not rendered into an encyclopedic article. --Bejnar (talk) 15:02, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
A discussion on a hatnote for disambiguation of this term (it is a redirect) is currently occurring at Talk:Kennedy family (the target of the redirect). -- 22.214.171.124 (talk) 03:37, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
Comment on the WikiProject X proposal[edit]
Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
Expert attention[edit]
This is a notice about Category:Anthroponymy articles needing expert attention, which might be of interest to your WikiProject. It will take a while before the category is populated. Iceblock (talk) 16:45, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

Advising Information
Advisement and Registration
The staff and faculty in the School of Visual Arts are here to help you navigate the extensive range of resources available to you at the university. In addition to an assigned faculty and peer advisor, you will receive additional support from the School of Visual Arts Office, as well as the College of Fine Arts Office of the Dean.
Find your advisor on the student link
Faculty Advisor
Incoming students are automatically assigned faculty advisors. You can find the name of your faculty advisor by visiting the student link. Once you have declared your major, you may change your faculty advisor to a member of your department by completing the major declaration form
online. Faculty advisors help students identify their interests, and guide course selection.
Peer Advisor
Incoming freshmen are each assigned a peer advisor. Peer advisors are upperclassmen who volunteer to serve as mentors by giving building tours, organizing trips to area art stores, and assisting with spring course selection.
Other Student Services
Jeannette Guillemin, the Assistant Director of the School of Visual Arts, oversees advisement and student services. She is available to meet with current and prospective students regarding academic or personal concerns involving transition to college, major selection, career direction, study abroad, minors, or double majors. Her office is located in the School of Visual Arts Office, Room 552.
CFA Office of the Dean
Student records and degree processing are handled in the dean's office, Room 230. If you need to transfer AP credit, process transfer credit, or change your student records, Cecilia Yudin, Student Records Manager, can assist you. If you decide to purse a double degree, Manager of Student Services Alyssa Baker is available to answer your questions about the proper procedures to coordinate your program.
Registration and Academic Requirements
Each semester, the School of Visual Arts offers group pre-registration meetings to assist students with course selection. You should plan to attend advising days, and prepare in advance by reviewing degree requirements, checking sequencing of classes, and referring to your degree audit on the student link. On advising day, an advisor will review your selections, answer questions, and provide you with your registration access code.
Academic advisors guide students in their course selection, and help students maximize the resources at Boston University. At the beginning of study, each student in the School of Visual Arts is assigned a faculty advisor. Upon declaration of major, the faculty advisor often changes to a member of the student's chosen department.
To find your faculty advisor and degree requirements on the student link, go to Academics–>>Academic Advising.
Before the major is declared, students will only see their foundation requirements. Therefore, it is important to declare your major by sophomore year by completing the Major Declaration Form online.

Tom Anderson
|Tom Anderson
|November 8, 1970
|Los Angeles[1]
|Alma mater
|University of California, Berkeley University of California, Los Angeles
|internet entrepreneur
|Known for
|Co-founder of Myspace
|Home town
|Escondido, California[2]
Thomas Anderson (born 8 November 1970)[3] is the American co-founder of the social networking website Myspace, which he founded in 2003 with Chris DeWolfe.[4] He was later president of Myspace and a strategic adviser for the company until he left in 2009.[2][5] As of October 2014, Anderson is popularly known as "Myspace Tom", because, until 2010, he would automatically be assigned as the first "friend" of new Myspace users upon the creation of their profiles.
Early life[edit]
Anderson's father was an entrepreneur.[6] As a teenager at San Pasqual High in Escondido, California, Anderson was a computer hacker under the pseudonym "Lord Flathead" (friends with Bill Landreth), and prompted a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) raid after he cracked the security of Chase Manhattan Bank. He was not arrested because of his young age.[7][8]
Anderson studied English and Rhetoric at the University of California, Berkeley, prior to becoming the lead singer of a band called "Swank."[6] Anderson then lived in Taiwan for some time, before returning to the U.S. to study for a degree in Critical Film Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles.[4][9]
Anderson was a product tester and copywriter at XDrive, a digital storage company in 2000, where he first met DeWolfe.[9] He initially joined XDrive as a product tester after answering a flyer advertisement, while still at film school and looking to earn extra money.[10] After XDrive went bankrupt in 2001, he and DeWolfe founded direct marketing company ResponseBase.[4][9] They sold ResponseBase to Brad Greenspan's eUniverse in late 2002.[6]
With other eUniverse employees, Anderson set up the first pages of Myspace in August 2003. He founded the site partly as a reaction to Friendster, and its policy of blocking accounts that did not use real names.[11] Intermix Media was then founded as the successor of eUniverse, and it was under Intermix that Myspace garnered the level of popularity that it is notable for. When Intermix Media and Myspace were sold to News Corp, Anderson became president of the company.[4]
Myspace was sold to News Corp in 2005 for US$580 million (£361 million).[12] Following the News Corp acquisition, Anderson said: "Before [the acquisition], I could do whatever I wanted. Now it takes more time to get people to agree on things. All the budget reviews and processes. That can be a pain. But it's not stopping us."[6] Reuters quoted an unnamed News Corp executive: "Tom [Anderson] was responsible for the product but ended up being a complete bottleneck on getting things done."[13] Anderson was replaced as president in April 2009 by News Corp;[14] by 2010, he was no longer the default friend on Myspace, and was replaced by a profile called "Today On MySpace," or "T.O.M."[15]
In late May 2012, Anderson announced that he would be joining RocketFrog Interactive as an adviser to the 16-person, Los Angeles, U.S.-based company, which created a Facebook app.[12] However, in a September 2014 interview, Anderson did not mention any advisory roles in his life at the time, while his Twitter blurb in October 2014 reads: "Enjoying being retired."[16] He explained in the interview that he is not interested in returning to his previous vocation, but concluded: "I'll never say never, because more than anything I like the idea that anything can happen. I don't know exactly where my life will lead. Adventure and the unknown has always been appealing to me."[17]
Media appearances[edit]
Anderson had a cameo appearance in the 2009 American drama-comedy film Funny People starring Adam Sandler.[18]
Personal life[edit]
Anderson is active on other social media platforms, including Facebook, Reddit, Twitter (with 226,000 followers in October 2014), and Google+ (6.56 million followers in October 2014).[19][20]
Following an experience with photography at the 2011 Burning Man festival, Anderson's interest in his own photography was piqued. In a September 2014 ABC News interview, Anderson credited friend and photographer Trey Ratcliff for facilitating his skill development, and explained: "I'm not necessarily trying to represent nature exactly. I'm trying to make something beautiful like a painter would." Anderson travels globally with friends to locations such as Thailand and Myanmar, where he primarily focuses upon landscape images.[17]
Anderson also explained in September 2014 that his personal interests have always been diverse:
If you knew me before Myspace, you'd probably thought I'd have been a scholar teaching philosophy in a university my whole life. If you met me before college, you'd probably have thought I'd be a musician for my entire life ... I like change.[17]

Subsidiary means (court decisions and doctrines) Treaties Treaties and international conventions – written agreements concluded by two or more sovereign nations or by a nation and an international organization (such as the European Union) Customary Law Regulations and procedures contained in treaties and conventions often develop into general customary usage Even those states that did not sign and ratify them come to consider them as binding The International Court of Justice (ICJ) The principal judicial body of the UN Its seat is in The Hague (Netherlands) Began its work in 1946 Composition: 15 judges elected to nine-year terms of office by the UN General Assembly and Security Council Functions of the Court To settle in accordance with international law the legal disputes submitted to it by States To give advisory opinion on legal questions referred to it by authorized international organs and agencies Legal Character of Int.

Legal forms and methods are used in judicial and arbitral proceedings 3. Authorities and precedents are cited in arguments 4. The alleged breach of international law is defended by claiming that no rule has been violated Law as a will of a political superior Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) – a British political philosopher In his book Leviathan he claimed that, since people think only of themselves and behave badly, it is best if they are ruled by one powerful authority Law depending on a political community Sir Frederick Pollock – the only essential conditions for the existence of law are the existence of a political community, and the recognition by its members of settled rules binding upon them in that capacity Instead of conclusion The mistake of confusing international law with international morality must be avoided. While they may meet at certain points, the former discipline is a legal one, both as regards its content and its form, while the concept of international morality is a branch of ethics. This does not mean that international law can be divorced from its values. Malcolm Shaw, International Law, Cambridge University Press, 2003 (p. 19)

It's been awhile, but Victoria's Secret model Izabel Goulart hasn't forgotten how much we love to watch her work out in the obviously not-at-all erotic videos she shares of her various workout routines.
I guess I should have used Jaclyn Swedberg's full title: 2012 Playmate of the Year, or her unofficial title (the one that I gave her) Hottest Playmate Ever when talking about these workout videos because, DAMN.
It's a little known fact that every song Taylor Swift has written in adulthood matches up PERFECTLY to 1980's Jazzercise and aerobics videos.
I'm not sure when Dai Macedo's reign as Miss Bumbum Brazil is going to officially come to an end, but whoever takes over the title next has got her work cut out for her if she wants to be even half as amazing as Macedo.
Kendall Jenner has now joined the ranks of many fine women who share their workouts using Instagram video, something we always appreciate, and while the first 10 seconds or so of this effort are pretty pedestrian, the last couple seconds harken us back to the day when we stated that Kendall had shared the best butt video in the history of Instagram butt videos.
Miss Bumbum Brazil Dai Macedo's workout videos are so inspirational that she didn't just share one workout video yesterday, fuck that, she went and shared SIX of these bad boys.
There are few women on Instagram who make sexier workout videos than Paraguayan Olympian Leryn Franco.
Bianca Beauchamp, who you may remember from such videos as "Bianca Beauchamp Shared The Greatest Workout Video Ever Posted To Instagram" and "Playboy Model Bianca Beauchamp And Her Boobs Are Really Good At Making Workout Videos," is back with yet another workout video that is going to ROCK YOUR WORLD.
Earlier today (like an hour ago) we shared a rather epic video of 2012 Playmate of the Year Jaclyn Swedberg working out on Instagram.
For those unfamiliar with German model Jordan Carver, first off let me say I'm sorry, because I like to refer to her as The Eighth Wonder of the World.
We know you need something to get you through hump day.
