Jump The Cheese!!!

[edit]
Today is

February

I first stumbled across Wikipedia sometime in 2004, but neglected to create an account until December 11, 2005. I became actively involved in Wikipedia at around January 2006.
I spend most of my free time on Wikipedia expanding articles, reverting various vandalism, adding pics, and other random stuffs. I hate disruptive users.

Behind the name

[edit]

I chose the username "Jumping cheese" because I'm a high jumper and I hate cheese. Seriously. The "cheese" is lowercased because I accidentally forgot to capitalize it when I created my account. I only noticed my mistake after I made like ten edits, so I didn't want to create a new account and lose those edits. As I later found out, "Jumping cheese" (also known as "Casu marzu") is actually a real type of Italian cheese with larvae that jump on your face when you try to eat the cheese, hence for the recommendation to wear eye protecting (cheese fly larvae squirming in your eyes can't be good).
Here are some nicknames other Wikipedians have given me:

  • JC
  • J Cheese
  • Cheese
  • Mr. Cheese
  • Cheesy
  • Jumping

If you are really really bored, you can take a look at how my signature has changed over time. Enjoy!

Yellow warbler
The yellow warbler (Setophaga petechia) is a species of bird in the New World warbler family, Parulidae. It is the most widespread species in the diverse genus Setophaga, breeding in almost the whole of North America, the Caribbean, as well as northern South America. It has 35 subspecies, residing in various different habitats. Depending on the subspecies, the yellow warbler may be between 10 and 18 centimetres (3.9 and 7.1 in) long, with a wingspan from 16 to 22 centimetres (6.3 to 8.7 in). It weighs 7 to 25 grams (0.2–0.9 oz). In winter, female and immature birds all have similarly greenish-yellow uppersides and are a duller yellow below, while males acquire breast and sometimes head coloration. This yellow warbler was photographed in the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge in New York City, United States.Photograph credit: Rhododendrites


Today's featured article

The Saxe–Goldstein hypothesis is a prediction in archaeology about the relationship between a society's funerary practices and its social organization. It predicts a correlation between two phenomena: the use of specific areas to dispose of the dead, and the legitimation of control over restricted resources through claims of descent from dead ancestors. The hypothesis was first formulated by the anthropologist Arthur Saxe in 1970 and was later refined by Lynne Goldstein. Saxe predicted that societies would be more likely to use formal areas for the disposal of the dead, such as cemeteries, if they contained social groups that legitimized their claims to important, restricted resources by claiming ties to ancestors. The Saxe–Goldstein hypothesis was credited with revitalizing interest in funerary archaeology. It was particularly adopted by adherents of processual archaeology, a body of theory that sought to bring archaeology closer to the natural sciences. From the 1980s, it increasingly fell from favor, and was criticized by post-processual archaeologists as an overgeneralization that oversimplified the different factors that influence funerary practices.
