A phospholipase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes phospholipids into fatty acids and other lipophilic substances. There are four major classes, termed A, B, C and D, which are distinguished by the type of reaction which they catalyze: Phospholipase A Phospholipase A1 – cleaves the SN-1 acyl chain. Phospholipase A2 – cleaves the SN-2 acyl chain, releasing arachidonic acid. Phospholipase B – cleaves both SN-1 and SN-2 acyl chains. Phospholipase C – cleaves before the phosphate, releasing diacylglycerol and a phosphate-containing head group. Phospholipase Cs play a central role in signal transduction, releasing the second messenger inositol triphosphate. Phospholipase D – cleaves after the phosphate, releasing phosphatidic acid and an alcohol. Types C and D are considered phosphodiesterases. Endothelial lipase is a phospholipase. Phospholipase A2 acts on the intact lecithin molecule and hydrolyses the fatty acid esterified to the second carbon atom; the resulting products are a fatty acid. Phospholipase A2 is an enzyme present in the venom of bees and viper snakes.

Vincenzo degli Azani was an Italian painter. He was born in Palermo, where he spent most of his life, except for a spell in Rome, where he came under the influence of Raphael, he is known as Vincenzo da Pavia, Vincenzo Aniemolo, Vincenzo degli Azani da Pavia, Il Romano and Vincenzo Romano. Vincenzo was born at Palermo towards the end of the 15th century. After having studied the works of Perugino and other masters in his native town, he went to Rome. There he came under the influence of Raphael, whose works had a great impact on his style, although it is not known if he was his pupil. Vincenzo left the city in 1527 at the time of the its pillage and returned to Sicily, going first to Messina and on to Palermo, where he lived until his death, he left many pictures in the churches of Palermo including the Virgin and Child between four Saints, in San Pietro Martire. All show strong traces of the influence of Raphael. A late work, the Death of the Virgin, for the Chiesa del Carmine in Sciacca, was based on a painting of the same subject by the Netherlandish artist Petrus Christus.

It was left unfinished when Vincenzo died in 1557. This article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domain: Michael. "Aniemolo, Vincenzo". In Graves, Robert Edmund.

Solar Ray is a 2001 remix album by Susumu Hirasawa. It is the centerpiece of "Hirasawa Energy Works", a project to produce music in an ecologically friendly way. In 2000, Hirasawa switched from a gasoline-powered car to a hybrid electric, developing an interest in sustainable energy in the idea of using solar power to make music, he purchased two 120-watt solar panels, outfitted his home studio to be powered by them, connected two car batteries to store additional energy, which combined allowed Hirasawa to work for 12 hours. To further optimize the work hours and prepare for bad weather days, only equipment necessary for work was kept on; the studio was illuminated by less than 30 small low wattage blue LEDs. Hirasawa's workdays ended. In total, less than 7 kg of carbon dioxide were emitted during the making of the album. Solar Ray features remixes of songs from previous albums in the energetic technopop style of Hirasawa's former band, P-Model. All tracks are written by Susumu Hirasawa.
