However, it there might also be baskets, small wooden chests, cotton bags, pottery, and stone tools. Mayans usually would hang bunches of chili peppers from the roofs of their houses. A hollowed-out chunk of wood called a bee pot was also common. Bees without stingers would be housed in the pot to make honey. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_furniture |
In one Muslim country, Afghanistan, a common exorcism practice as of 2013 that has been criticized as inhumane, was to secure the mentally ill to shrines for forty days to ritually exorcise the jinn "possessing" them.

In one account of the Tungusic creation myth, Buga, their central deity, set fire to a vast primordial ocean. Following a long struggle, the flames consumed much of the water, exposing dry land. Then Buga created the light and, separated it from darkness, and descended to the newly created land, where he confronted Bun... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungusic_creation_myth |
Buga agreed he would bow to Buninka's powers if he could do so, but if he failed then Buga would subject himself to the same challenge. If Buga were then to succeed, Buninka must concede to Buga that he was the most powerful creator. Buninka agreed to the challenge and commanded a fir tree to rise from the sea. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungusic_creation_myth |
The tree grew, but it was weak and swayed to and fro, whilst Buga's tree was good. Buninka was forced to acknowledge Buga's greater power and bowed in homage. Buga put his hand to Buninka's head and turned it to iron. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungusic_creation_myth |
This caused so much pain in Buninka that he begged Buga for release, and Buga relented, releasing Buninka to be allowed to wander the earth on condition he did no harm to man.Buga then collected materials to make mankind. From the east he gathered iron; from the south fire; the west, water; and from the north, earth. F... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungusic_creation_myth |
After they had increased in numbers Buninka he wanted to claim half as his own. Buga refused to give him any of the living but Buninka was granted the vicious men and women after they had died, Buga keeping the virtuous to himself. So after death, the evil join Buninka in hell, which is in the center of the earth. Hell... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungusic_creation_myth |
In one account outlined in the K'iche' Maya sacred text, the Popol Vuh, the gods created animals first, but were displeased when they could not speak or worship them. They then tried to make humans out of mud, but the mud people simply came undone. The gods once again attempted to make humans out of wood. The wood peop... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnoprimatology |
The gods angrily destroyed them with rains and flood, and those wood people who escaped became spider monkeys. The spider monkeys were morphologically similar to humans but still lacked the ability to speak. In a different part of the Popol Vuh, Hunbatz (which literally means 1 Howler monkey) and Hunchouen (1 Spider mo... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnoprimatology |
The Hero Twins won the favor of the gods after they defeated the gods of darkness and death. Naturally, Hunbatz and Hunchouen were jealous, and were always trying to find ways to end their brothers. One day, tired of their brothers' jealousy, the Hero Twins led their older brothers to a tree and convinced them to climb... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnoprimatology |
In one adaptation called a SN2' reduction a formal organic reduction on an allyl group containing a good leaving group is accompanied by a rearrangement. One example of such reaction is found as part of a taxol total synthesis (ring C): The hydride is lithium aluminium hydride and the leaving group a phosphonium salt. ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allylic_rearrangement |
In one application a liquid fullerene is obtained when the pyrrolidone substituent is a 2,4,6-tris(alkyloxy)phenyl group although a small amount of solvent is still possibly present. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prato_reaction |
In one application the asymmetry in an atropisomer is transferred in a chemical reaction to a new stereocenter. The atropisomer is an iodoaryl compound synthesised starting from (S)-valine and exists as the (M,S) isomer and the (P,S) isomer. The interconversion barrier between the two is 24.3 kcal/mol (101.7 kJ/mol). T... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atropisomer |
The iodine group is homolytically removed to form an aryl radical by a tributyltin hydride/triethylboron/oxygen mixture as in the Barton–McCombie reaction. Although the hindered rotation is now removed in the aryl radical, the intramolecular reaction with the alkene is so much faster than is rotation of the carbon–nitr... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atropisomer |
The most important class of atropisomers are biaryls such as diphenic acid, which is a derivative of biphenyl with a complete set of ortho substituents. Heteroaromatic analogues of the biphenyl compounds also exist, where hindered rotation occurs about a carbon-nitrogen or a nitrogen-nitrogen bond. Others are dimers of... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atropisomer |
In a similar way, aliphatic ring systems like cyclohexanes linked through a single bond may display atropisomerism provided that bulky substituents are present. The use of axially chiral biaryl compounds such as BINAP, QUINAP and BINOL, have been found to be useful in the area of asymmetric catalysis as chiral ligands.... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atropisomer |
Other reactions that can be catalyzed by the use of chiral biaryl compounds are the Grignard reaction, Ullmann reaction, and the Suzuki reaction. A recent example in the area of chiral biaryl asymmetric catalysis employs a five-membered imidazole as part of the atropisomer scaffold. This specific phosphorus, nitrogen-l... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atropisomer |
In one approach testing monkeys, rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) are able to "steal" a contested grape from one of two human competitors.

In one approach to M-theory phenomenology, theorists assume that the seven extra dimensions of M-theory are shaped like a G2 manifold. This is a special kind of seven-dimensional shape constructed by mathematician Dominic Joyce of the University of Oxford. These G2 manifolds are still poorly understood mathematically, ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BFSS_conjecture |
In one archaic myth, related only in the Iliad by the goddess Dione to her daughter Aphrodite, two chthonic giants, the Aloadae, named Otus and Ephialtes, bound Ares in chains and imprisoned him in a bronze urn, where he remained for thirteen months, a lunar year. "And that would have been the end of Ares and his appet... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ares |
Ares was held screaming and howling in the urn until Hermes rescued him, and Artemis tricked the Aloadae into slaying each other. In Nonnus's Dionysiaca, in the war between Cronus and Zeus, Ares killed an unnamed giant son of Echidna who was allied with Cronus, and described as spitting "horrible poison" and having "sn... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ares |
In one arrangement, the motor has an ordinary induction motor stator.

In one case, a cerebral organoid grown from a patient with microcephaly demonstrated related symptoms and revealed that apparently, the cause is overly rapid development, followed by slower brain growth. Microencephaly is a developmental condition in which the brain remains undersized, producing an undersized head and ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_organoid |
The disease is difficult to reproduce in mouse models because mice lack the developmental stages for an enlarged cerebral cortex that humans have. Naturally, a disease which affects this development would be impossible to show in a model which does not have it to begin with. To use cerebral organoids to model a human's... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_organoid |
These include OCT4, SOX2, MYC and KLF4. The reprogrammed sample was able to be cloned into induced pluripotent stem cells. The cells were cultured into a cerebral organoid following a process described in the cerebral organoid creation section below. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_organoid |
The organoid that resulted had decreased numbers of neural progenitor cells and smaller tissues. Additionally, the patient-derived tissues displayed fewer and less frequent neuroepithelial tissues made of progenitors, decreased radial glial stem cells, and increased neurons. These results suggest that the underlying me... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_organoid |
In one case, a patient was diagnosed with both Morvan's syndrome and pulmonary hyalinizing granulomas (PHG). PHG are rare fibrosing lesions of the lung, which have central whorled deposits of lamellar collagen.

In one case, the decision to allow jurisdiction in a U.S. court over claims of copyright infringement and cybersquatting was premised on an effects doctrine theory of jurisdiction. Graduate Management Admission Council v. Raju, 241 F.Supp.2d 589 (E.D. Va., 2003). | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_jurisdiction_over_international_defendants_in_the_United_States |
The defendant in Raju was a citizen of India who sold "official" past Graduate Record Examinations (GREs) to U.S. customers that were of dubious origin and in violation of the plaintiff, copyright-holder Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC). These exams were advertised and sold over the Internet. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_jurisdiction_over_international_defendants_in_the_United_States |
The defendant never made an appearance on U.S. territory depriving the plaintiffs of one easy avenue of obtaining in personam jurisdiction over the defendant – the simple act of being able to serve process on the defendant while the defendant is visiting and within the territory of the United States (this would be the ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_jurisdiction_over_international_defendants_in_the_United_States |
The court described the jurisdiction it exercised over Raju's conduct of selling illegal copies of the exams to potential purchasers in several states within the territory of the U.S. as "targeting" the U.S. market for U.S. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_jurisdiction_over_international_defendants_in_the_United_States |

Under these circumstances, the court found that personal jurisdiction was proper under a theory of national jurisdiction: the defendant had targeted the U.S. at large from outside of the territory and intended to avail himself of the opportunity of selling test answers to a U.S. graduate school entrance tes... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_jurisdiction_over_international_defendants_in_the_United_States |
In one classical formulation, truth is defined as the good of logic, where logic is a normative science, that is, an inquiry into a good or a value that seeks knowledge of it and the means to achieve it.

In one complex dimension, every open domain is pseudoconvex. The concept of pseudoconvexity is thus more useful in dimensions higher than 1. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudoconvex_set |
In one complex dimension, the only compact examples are tori, which form a one-parameter family. The Ricci-flat metric on a torus is actually a flat metric, so that the holonomy is the trivial group SU(1). A one-dimensional Calabi–Yau manifold is a complex elliptic curve, and in particular, algebraic. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calabi-Yau_manifold |
In one cross-sectional, correlational study, four different developmental stages were examined: preadolescence (Grades 5 and 6), early adolescence (Grades 7 and 8), middle adolescence (Grades 9 and 10) and late adolescence (Grades 11 and 12). Self-report measures were used in which adolescents completed questionnaires.... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer_group |

In one design, the driveside (right) crankarm and the bottom bracket spindle are an integrated unit and the bearing cups are placed outside of the bottom bracket shell, threaded into the bottom bracket shell. There are a number of versions of this design available: Shimano's Hollowtech II, RaceFace's X-type, FSA's Mega... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottom_bracket |
With this new standard have come several cranksets designed to use the external bearings of other manufacturers, such as DMR's "Ex type" and Charge Bikes "Regular" cranks. In the early 1990s at Magic Motorcycle, a small USA component manufacturer later purchased by Cannondale, and re-formed into Cannondale's CODA brand... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottom_bracket |
The design resembles the external bottom bracket designs marketed by FSA, RaceFace and Shimano. The modern versions used the same sealed bearing size (6805-RS, 25 mm inner diameter, 37 mm outer diameter) and the original mounting tool fits. The crank had intricately CNC machined wide hollow crank arms made of two halve... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottom_bracket |
However, Cannondale moved on from that system and developed the SI cranks and the new BB30 unthreaded press-fit bottom bracket standard. BB30 requires special frames which have a 42 mm diameter unthreaded bottom bracket shell (which is larger than the 34.9 mm threaded ISO standard threads) allowing use of internal seal... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottom_bracket |

In one dimension – for a particle confined into a straight line – the square modulus of a normalized square integrable wave-function represents the probability density of finding the particle at some position x {\displaystyle x} of the real-line, at a certain time. In other terms, if – at a certain instant of time – th... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_Operator |
Note 1. To be more explicit, we have introduced the coordinate function which simply imbeds the position-line into the complex plane. It is nothing more than the canonical embedding of the real line into the complex plane. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_Operator |
Note 2. The expected value of the position operator, upon a wave function (state) ψ {\displaystyle \psi } can be reinterpreted as a scalar product: assuming the particle in the state ψ ∈ L 2 {\displaystyle \psi \in L^{2}} and assuming the function x ψ {\displaystyle \mathrm {x} \psi } be of class L 2 {\displaystyle L^{... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_Operator |
In one dimension, Sperner's Lemma can be regarded as a discrete version of the intermediate value theorem. In this case, it essentially says that if a discrete function takes only the values 0 and 1, begins at the value 0 and ends at the value 1, then it must switch values an odd number of times. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sperner's_Lemma |
In one dimension, a differential form A ( x ) d x {\displaystyle A(x)\,dx} is exact if and only if A {\displaystyle A} has an antiderivative (but not necessarily one in terms of elementary functions).

Then it is holomorphic everywhere.In this example, the two wedges are the upper... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edge-of-the-wedge_theorem |
In one dimension, all Lp metrics are equal – they are just the absolute value of the difference. The two dimensional Manhattan distance has "circles" i.e. level sets in the form of squares, with sides of length √2r, oriented at an angle of π/4 (45°) to the coordinate axes, so the planar Chebyshev distance can be viewed... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev_distance |
Nevertheless, it is true that in all finite-dimensional spaces the L1 and L∞ metrics are mathematically dual to each other.

In one experiment published in 1992, visual mental imagery was studied in ASL signers—deaf and hearing—and hearing non-signers. These hearing signers were born to deaf parents, and ASL was their first language. Another aspect looked at in this study was the difference between native signers and those who learned sign l... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_language_in_the_brain |
The other deaf signers' primary language is sign language, but they did not learn it until between the ages of two to sixteen.In the experiment of generating simple and complex images, deaf individuals were the quickest, followed by hearing signers and then hearing non-signers. This was expected; however, looking at a ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_language_in_the_brain |
At least in this area, experience with a visual-spatial language provides quicker reaction times. The results are consistent with abilities recruited for processing sign language being enhanced in the brain, compared to those abilities in non-signers. A couple of things the subjects were tested on were mental rotation ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_language_in_the_brain |
Signers had an advantage in mirror reversals, but there was no difference between signers and non-signers performing mental rotation. Because of these results, it may not be true to say that signers have a better ability to transform images, but the ability may be in rotating images. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_language_in_the_brain |
Because of this experiment, the cause of enhanced abilities was questioned to be because of auditory deprivation or because of using a visual-spatial language. Hearing signers who learned sign language as a first language may be the key to answering this question. == References == | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_language_in_the_brain |

There are still many issues that need to be addressed before performing stem cell therapeutic techniques on humans, but advancements are being made in model organisms with homologous structures. In the sickle c... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_cell_lineage_database |
Following this induction, mice formed symptoms similar to the symptoms of humans with sickle cell anemia. Through retroviral transduction of combinations of transcription factors, human and mice fibroblast cells were reprogrammed to pluripotent-stem cell-like cells (also termed “induced pluripotent stem cells,” or iPS)... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_cell_lineage_database |
Next, they wanted to test whether or not hematopoietic progenitors (HPs) would derive from the reprogrammed iPS cells and correct the sickle cell phenotype. Through many tests, they verified that the HPs had derived from the iPS cells. Later in their results, they concluded that when these iPS cells were introduced int... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_cell_lineage_database |
In one form of dialysis, called peritoneal dialysis, a glucose solution is sent through a tube into the peritoneal cavity. The fluid is left there for a prescribed amount of time to absorb waste products, and then removed through the tube. The reason for this effect is the high number of arteries and veins in the perit... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visceral_peritoneum |
In one form, the navigational system of equations acquires linear and angular measurements from the inertial and body frame, respectively and calculates the final attitude and position in the NED frame of reference. Where f is specific force, ω {\displaystyle \omega } is angular rate, a is acceleration, R is position, ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_guidance |
In one generalised telling of the universe's creation: in the beginning, there was Te Kore (The Nothing; Void) which became Te Korematua (The Parentless Void) in its search for procreation. From it came Te Pō (The Night), becoming Te Pōroa (The Long Night), and then becoming Te Pōnui (The Great Night). Gradually Te Ao ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Māori_mythology |
