The degree constrained minimum spanning tree is a minimum spanning tree in which each vertex is connected to no more than d other vertices, for some given number d. The case d = 2 is a special case of the traveling salesman problem, so the degree constrained minimum spanning tree is NP-hard in general. For directed graphs, the minimum spanning tree problem is called the Arborescence problem and can be solved in O ( E + V log V ) {\displaystyle O(E+V\log V)} time using the Chu–Liu/Edmonds algorithm. A maximum spanning tree is a spanning tree with weight greater than or equal to the weight of every other spanning tree. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_cost_spanning_tree |
Assume that all floating point operations use standard IEEE 754 double-precision arithmetic. Consider the sample (4, 7, 13, 16) from an infinite population. Based on this sample, the estimated population mean is 10, and the unbiased estimate of population variance is 30. Both the naïve algorithm and two-pass algorithm compute these values correctly. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithms_for_calculating_variance |
Additionally, some fighters actually choose to fight in a southpaw stance despite their dominant hand being their right, one such fighter being Vasyl Lomachenko. This is done as it gives access to a strong and precise jab from the lead hand, which is arguably the most important strike in boxing for setting up combos and interrupting your opponent during their attacks. Bruce Lee also practiced this same method of fighting with his dominant hand forward. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambidexterity |
Knowledge about effective treatments for excoriation disorder is sparse, despite the prevalence of the condition. There are two major classes of therapy for excoriation disorder: pharmacological and behavioral.Individuals with excoriation disorder often do not seek treatment for their condition, largely due to feelings of embarrassment, alienation, lack of awareness, or belief that the condition cannot be treated. One study found that only 45% of individuals with excoriation disorder ever sought treatment, and only 19% ever received dermatological treatment. Another study found that only 30% of individuals with this disorder sought treatment. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excoriation_disorder |
When immature and white, this mushroom may be known as: common mushroom white mushroom button mushroom cultivated mushroom table mushroom champignon (French for mushroom)When immature and brown, it may be known variously as: Swiss brown mushroom Roman brown mushroom Italian brown mushroom cremini/crimini mushroom chestnut mushroom (not to be confused with Pholiota adiposa) baby bellaWhen marketed in its mature state, the mushroom is brown with a cap measuring 10–15 centimetres (4–6 inches). This form is commonly sold under the names portobello, portabella, or portobella; the etymology is disputed. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_button_mushroom |
The distance continually changes for a number of reasons, but averages 385,000.6 km (239,228.3 mi) between the center of the Earth and the center of the Moon. The orbits of the Moon and planets are integrated numerically along with the orientation of the Moon called physical libration.At the Moon's surface, the beam is about 6.5 kilometers (4.0 mi) wide and scientists liken the task of aiming the beam to using a rifle to hit a moving dime 3 kilometers (1.9 mi) away. The reflected light is too weak to see with the human eye. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Laser_Ranging_experiments |
In cases where the integration is permitted to extend over equidistant sections of the interval {\displaystyle } , the composite Boole's rule might be applied. Given N {\displaystyle N} divisions, the integrated value amounts to: where the error term is similar to above. The following Common Lisp code implements the aforementioned formula: | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boole's_rule |
Then each player reveals their next card, followed by a betting round. Then a third card is revealed, followed by a betting round, a fourth card, a betting round, and finally a showdown. Players may not change the order of their cards at any time during the rollout phase. This game can be played for high or low, but plays best at high-low split, in which case it is called "Skinny Minnie". | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draw_poker |
NGC 7836 is an irregular or spiral galaxy located about 260 million light-years away in the constellation of Andromeda. It was discovered by astronomer Lewis Swift on September 20, 1885.NGC 7836 is a member of the NGC 7831 Group and is part of the Perseus–Pisces Supercluster. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NGC_7836 |
Hobbs wrote a song in 1982 entitled "Natasha," about a Russian waitress on a cruise ship, who was never allowed to leave it. The song was copyrighted in 1983, and sent to Big Pig Music (John's publisher) for a possible publishing deal, but Guy never heard back from the publisher. In 2001, Guy came across the lyric book to "Nikita" and noticed similarities with his song. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_plagiarism |
A conference called Glennfest was held in honor of Stevens' 60th birthday on June 2–6, 2014. The theme of the conference was p-adic variation in number theory.In 2015 he was elected as a fellow of the American Mathematical Society "for contributions to the theory of p-adic modular forms and for service to the mathematical community." == References == | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenn_H._Stevens |
Though sharing some core concepts with ICOs and IPOs, STOs are in fact different from both, standing as an intermediary model. Similarly to ICOs, STOs are offerings that are made by selling digital tokens to the general public in cryptocurrency exchanges such as Binance, Kraken, Binaryx and others. The main difference stands in the fact that ICO tokens are the offered cryptocurrency's actual coins, entirely digital, and classified as utilities. New ICO currencies can be generated ad infinitum, as might in some cases their tokens. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_token_offering |
This enzyme participates in bacterial chemotaxis - general and bacterial chemotaxis - organism-specific. CheR proteins are part of the chemotaxis signaling mechanism which methylates the chemotaxis receptor at specific glutamate residues. Methyl transfer from the ubiquitous S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet/SAM) to either nitrogen, oxygen or carbon atoms is frequently employed in diverse organisms ranging from bacteria to plants and mammals. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein-glutamate_O-methyltransferase |
Gram staining is used to determine gram status to classifying bacteria broadly based on the composition of their cell wall. Gram staining uses crystal violet to stain cell walls, iodine (as a mordant), and a fuchsin or safranin counterstain to (mark all bacteria). Gram status, helps divide specimens of bacteria into two groups, generally representative of their underlying phylogeny. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_staining |
("Torino Scale" is the proper usage, not "Turin Scale. ")Due to exaggerated press coverage of Level 1 asteroids, a rewording of the Torino Scale was published in 2005, adding more details and renaming the categories: in particular, Level 1 was changed from "Events meriting careful monitoring" to "Normal". The Torino Scale has served as the model for the Rio scale which quantifies the validity and societal impact of SETI data. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torino_Scale |
Two classes of single point mutations dramatically improve the activity of ebg enzyme toward lactose. and, as a result, the mutant enzyme is able to replace the lacZ β-galactosidase. EbgA and LacZ are 50% identical on the DNA level and 33% identical on the amino acid level. The active ebg enzyme is an aggregate of ebgA -gene and ebgC-gene products in a 1:1 ratio with the active form of ebg enzymes being an α4 β4 hetero-octamer. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Β-Galactosidase |
It goes into a low over-banked turn under the cutback, followed by a corkscrew over another piece of track, creating a head-chopper effect. It goes into another over-banked turn, followed by a series of S-curves to add to the excitement. It does one more 180 degree turn into a series of bunny hops going under the corkscrew. It does one final twist straight into the final brake run. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sky_Rocket |
Within this system anything whatsoever can arise from omnific awareness, thus the use of the term “indefinite” in labeling this monism. What does arise as the existents that we are conscious of is conditioned by the affections of awareness for its display. Thus this system does away with the idea of an active, creative force called free will and replaces it with an active volitional component known as affections, that does not itself create anything, whether movement or structure, but instead, constrains the possibilities of what arises naturally. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indefinite_monism |
In total, given a wildcard type like C extends T>, there are three ways to form a subtype: by specializing the class C, by specifying a tighter bound T, or by replacing the wildcard ? with a specific type (see figure). : 139 By applying two of the above three forms of subtyping, it becomes possible to, for example, pass an argument of type List to a method expecting a List extends Animal>. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covariance_and_contravariance_(computer_science) |
In fission yeast three different forms of mitotic cyclin exist, and six in budding yeast, yet the primary cyclin utilized is cyclin B. Cyclin B will serve as reference for discussion of the G2/M checkpoint transition. Similar to S Phase, G2 experiences a DNA damage checkpoint. The cell is once more examined for sites of DNA damage or incomplete replication, and the kinases ATR and ATM are recruited to damage sites. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle_checkpoint |
Structural mobility is mobility that results from a change in the income distribution function without regard to the identity of the agents. For two agents, a change in income distribution might be {1,3}->{2,2}. This case may involve some exchange mobility, depending on one's definition, but there is certainly some structural mobility since it does not involve a simple reshuffling of incomes. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_mobility |
"Witt's theorem" or "the Witt theorem" may also refer to the Bourbaki–Witt fixed point theorem of order theory.In mathematics, Witt's theorem, named after Ernst Witt, is a basic result in the algebraic theory of quadratic forms: any isometry between two subspaces of a nonsingular quadratic space over a field k may be extended to an isometry of the whole space. An analogous statement holds also for skew-symmetric, Hermitian and skew-Hermitian bilinear forms over arbitrary fields. The theorem applies to classification of quadratic forms over k and in particular allows one to define the Witt group W(k) which describes the "stable" theory of quadratic forms over the field k. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witt's_decomposition_theorem |
South of the notch the land rises gently but steadily into it, gaining about 450 feet (140 m) over two miles (3.2 km) from Bushnellville. To the north it descends more rapidly to the hamlet of West Kill. The highway drops 525 feet (160 m) in a half-mile (1 km) to the junction with Greene County Route 6.Route 42 is one of only three paved roads crossing gaps in a long chain of ranges that extends from Plattekill Mountain in the east to Utsayantha Mountain, near Stamford, in the west. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Notch |
Willis teamed up with Del Bigtree, the founder of the anti-vaccination group Informed Consent Action Network, to release another film, Plandemic 3: The Great Awakening on Bigtree's website The Highwire. In February 2023, a rough cut was screened at the "Rabbit Room" section of the 21st Conscious Life Expo in Los Angeles, a New Age and far-right conspiracy event where he won a humanitarian award in 2008. The trailer was released on May 23, 2023, and the film itself on June 3. Its promotional tagline, placed at a "slick" official website, is "100% Censored, 0% Debunked." | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plandemic |
Each radio station would transmit radio waves over a frequency bandwidth of about 180 kHz (kilohertz), centred at frequencies such as the above, which are called the "carrier frequencies". Each station in this example is separated from its adjacent stations by 200 kHz, and the difference between 200 kHz and 180 kHz (20 kHz) is an engineering allowance for the imperfections in the communication system. In the example above, the "free space channel" has been divided into communications channels according to frequencies, and each channel is assigned a separate frequency bandwidth in which to broadcast radio waves. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_communications |
When the particles of a stabilized suspension transition from an immobile state to mobile state, small groupings of particles form hydroclusters, increasing the viscosity. These hydroclusters are composed of particles momentarily compressed together, forming an irregular, rod-like chain of particles akin to a logjam or traffic jam. In theory the particles have extremely small interparticle gaps, rendering this momentary, transient hydrocluster as incompressible. It is possible that additional hydroclusters will form through aggregation. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilatant |
In March 2023, an anonymous construction worker from Chicago used Midjourney to create a fake image of Pope Francis in a white Balenciaga puffer jacket. The image went viral, receiving over twenty million views. Writer Ryan Broderick dubbed it "the first real mass-level AI misinformation case". Experts consulted by Slate characterized the image as unsophisticated: "you could have made it on Photoshop five years ago". | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepfake |
The Ancient Greek measure known as the orguia (Greek: ὀργυιά, orgyiá, lit. "outstretched") is usually translated as "fathom". By the Byzantine period, this unit came in two forms: a "simple orguia" (ἁπλὴ ὀργυιά, haplē orguiá) roughly equivalent to the old Greek fathom (6 Byzantine feet, c. 1.87 m) and an "imperial" (βασιλικὴ, basilikē) or "geometric orguia" (γεωμετρικὴ ὀργυιά, geōmetrikē orguiá) that was one-eighth longer (6 feet and a span, c. 2.10 m). | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fathom |
Gabriel–Popescu theorem The Gabriel–Popescu theorem says an abelian category is a quotient of the category of modules. Galois category 1. In SGA 1, Exposé V (Definition 5.1. ), a category is called a Galois category if it is equivalent to the category of finite G-sets for some profinite group G. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_object |
Recent interest has been given to the exploration of lignocellulostic material as a biofuel source. Given that it is the most plentiful renewable carbon source in the biosphere, it is a natural choice for this purpose. The composition consists of three elements—hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiofluorination |
John Larsen founded HomeMovie.Com in 2000, and his partner Lars Krumme joined him in early 2002. Prior to 2004, the company was also known as Home Movie Corporation, or HomeMovie.Com. It is currently offering its web-based Tools through StashSpace.com. HomeMovie.Com was the first company to offer consumer video to DVD transfer services for under $100, starting in 2000. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homemovie.com |
This pericope is at the core of the argument about the relationship between the views attributed to Jesus, such as Gospel, Grace, New Covenant, New Commandment, Law of Christ, and those attributed to Moses or the Mosaic Law, and hence on the relationship between the New Testament and Old Testament, Christian views on the old covenant, Law and Gospel, and as a basis of Christian ethics. The reason for this argument is a disagreement about the proper interpretation of the word "fulfillment" (πληρῶσαι; plerosai). This goes back at least as far as Marcion of Sinope and continues until today. Many modern scholars now consider these four verses to be a prelude to the Antitheses, but this position is not universally accepted, and many continue to interpret Matthew 5:17–20 independent of its textual neighbors. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antithesis_of_the_Law |
When working in industries where there are strict coding requirements or regulatory standards, it is necessary to be able to prove that an application was developed according to the required steps. traceability is having all the information necessary to prove in a software audit that you've done the proper process. Commonly this means being able to prove what code belongs to a particular requirement as well as who reviewed it and what the outcome of such a review was. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasoft_C/C++test |
The process required pressing tungsten powder into bars, then several steps of sintering, swaging, and then wire drawing. It was found that very pure tungsten formed filaments that sagged in use, and that a very small "doping" treatment with potassium, silicon, and aluminium oxides at the level of a few hundred parts per million (so-called AKS tungsten) greatly improved the life and durability of the tungsten filaments.The predominant mechanism for failure in tungsten filaments even now is grain boundary sliding accommodated by diffusional creep. During operation, the tungsten wire is stressed under the load of its own weight and because of the diffusion that can occur at high temperatures, grains begin to rotate and slide. This stress, because of variations in the filament, causes the filament to sag nonuniformly, which ultimately introduces further torque on the filament. It is this sagging that inevitably results in a rupture of the filament, rendering the incandescent lightbulb useless. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incandescent_lamps |
The derecho de gracia ("right of grace") or indulto ("pardon") is acknowledged by the Spanish Constitution of 1978 as a privilege of the King of Spain (article 62.i: "Functions of the King"). Spanish law defines it as a renunciation on the State's part of its own punitive power on behalf of an individual, founded on reasons of equity or public interest. The Constitution subjects royal pardons to the law and forbids general pardons, so they have to be granted individually. Theoretically, a royal pardon can be granted for a general offense or accessory offenses alone; if it is granted for a general offense, the accessory ones it implies are also pardoned, with the exception of punishments involving political rights (i.e., removal of the right to run for a public office as a result of a sentence), which have to be explicitly mentioned in the pardon decree if they are going to be pardoned. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidential_pardon |
To illustrate the potential improvements possible even in well-established algorithms, a recent significant innovation, relating to FFT algorithms (used heavily in the field of image processing), can decrease processing time up to 1,000 times for applications like medical imaging. In general, speed improvements depend on special properties of the problem, which are very common in practical applications. Speedups of this magnitude enable computing devices that make extensive use of image processing (like digital cameras and medical equipment) to consume less power. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithm |
It is also implicated in postpartum fever, because it may be a cause of endometritis. M. hominis is also suspected to be the cause of neonatal infections such as conjunctivitis, respiratory distress, fever, meningitis, abscesses, and congenital pneumonia. In adults, M. hominis may be implicated in pharyngitis, septicaemia, lung infections, central nervous system infections, other respiratory tract infections, joint infection, and wound infections. M. hominis infections are usually not seen in healthy adults. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycoplasma_hominis |
The collective security organisation then becomes an arena for diplomacy, the balance of power, and the exercise of soft power. The use of hard power by states, unless legitimized by the collective security organisation, is considered illegitimate, reprehensible, and necessitating remediation of some kind. The collective security organisation not only gives cheaper security but also may be the only practicable means of security for smaller nations against more powerful threatening neighbours without needing to join the camp of the nations that balance their neighbours. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collective_defense |
Capitalism is founded upon the exchange of capital (most obviously, money) for goods and services. However, social entrepreneurs must find new business models that do not rely on standard exchange of capital in order to make their organizations sustainable. This self-sustainability is what distinguishes social businesses from charities, who rely almost entirely on donations and outside funding. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Entrepreneur |
There are many methods of creating Z-pins. Typically, Z-pins are pre-cured and then inserted into composites. One process consists of pulling a continuous-fibre tow through a bath of liquid resin using a pultrusion machine. The fibre is then pulled out of the bath through the die which creates the shape and size of the pin. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-pinning |
To improve management of atherosclerosis, monitoring the stability of plaque by mechanical characterization of the arterial wall plays an important role. This task has always been done by utilizing intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) elastography to characterize the elastic properties of parts within the plaque. Plaque components and stability could be analyzed based on these detected elastic properties. However, detailed plaque structural detection could be limited due to IVUS elastography's relatively low spatial frequency (hundreds of microns). Intravascular OCE could perfectly complements IVUS elastography by developing high-resolution biomechanical imaging of the arterial wall. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coherence_elastography |
The rise of the fighting game genre with games such as Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat, combined with the release of popular sports titles such as NBA Jam and NFL Blitz, led to a brief resurgence in the popularity of video arcades, with new locations opening in shopping malls and strip malls throughout the country in the early 90s. The arcade industry entered a major slump in mid-1994. Arcade attendance and per-visit spending, though not as poor as during the 1983 crash, declined to the point where several of the largest arcade chains either were put up for sale or declared bankruptcy, while many large arcade machine manufacturers likewise moved to get out of the business. In the second quarter of 1996, video game factories reported 90,000 arcade cabinets sold, as compared to 150,000 cabinets sold in 1990.The main reason for the slump was increasing competition from console ports. During the 1980s it typically took several years for an arcade game to be released on a home console, and the port usually differed greatly from the arcade version; during the mid-1990s it became common for a game publisher to release a highly accurate port of an arcade game that had yet to peak in popularity, thus severely cutting into arcade owners' profits. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_arcade |
Here language quality is stated in accordance with the SEQUAL framework for quality of models developed by Krogstie, Sindre and Lindland (2003), since this is a framework that connects the language quality to a framework for general model quality. Five areas are used in this framework to describe language quality and these are supposed to express both the conceptual as well as the visual notation of the language. We will not go into a thoroughly explanation of the underlying quality framework of models but concentrate on the areas used to explain the language quality framework. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_modeling_language |
This is simply the observation that if the meaning of "Angela Merkel" is "the Chancellor of Germany," then "Angela is the Chancellor of Germany" should seem to the average person to be a priori, analytic, and trivial, as if falling out of the meaning of "Angela Merkel" just as "unmarried male" falls out of the meaning of "bachelor." If thesis (5) is to hold, the properties of Angela Merkel should be known a priori by the speaker. But this is not true. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descriptivist_theory_of_names |
There exists a 3-manifold group which is left-orderable but not bi-orderable (in fact it does not satisfy the weaker property of being locally indicable). Left-orderable groups have also attracted interest from the perspective of dynamical systems as it is known that a countable group is left-orderable if and only if it acts on the real line by homeomorphisms. Non-examples related to this paradigm are lattices in higher rank Lie groups; it is known that (for example) finite-index subgroups in S L n ( Z ) {\displaystyle \mathrm {SL} _{n}(\mathbb {Z} )} are not left-orderable; a wide generalisation of this has been recently announced. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totally_ordered_group |
During special events, invited speakers and dignitaries may address the university population or the general public from the Great Hall.

Systematic risk exists in projects and is called the overall project risk bred by the combined effect of uncertainty in external environmental factors such as PESTLE, VUCA, etc. It is also called contingent or unplanned risk or simply uncertainty because it is of unknown likelihood and unknown impact. In contrast, systemic risk is known as the individual project risk, caused by internal factors or attributes of the project system or culture. This is also known as inherent, planned, event or condition risk caused by known unknowns such as variability or ambiguity of impact but 100% probability of occurrence. Both systemic and systematic risks are residual risk. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systematic_risk |
Glass cockpits routinely include high-resolution multi-color displays (often LCD displays) that present information relating to the various aircraft systems (such as flight management) in an integrated way. Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) architecture allows for the integration of the cockpit instruments and displays at the hardware and software level to be maximized. CDS software typically uses API code to integrate with the platform (such as OpenGL to access the graphics drivers for example). This software may be written manually or with the help of COTS tools such as GL Studio, VAPS, VAPS XT or SCADE Display.Standards such as ARINC 661 specify the integration of the CDS at the software level with the aircraft system applications (called User Applications or UA). | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockpit_display_system |
Let v0 equal r0. Then let v1 equal rα1, where α1 is least such that rα1 − v0 is not a rational number.

McVeigh told Fortier of his plans to blow up a federal building, but Fortier declined to participate. Fortier also told his wife about the plans. McVeigh composed two letters to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the first titled "Constitutional Defenders" and the second "ATF Read." He denounced government officials as "fascist tyrants" and "storm troopers," and warned: ATF, all you tyrannical mother fuckers will swing in the wind one day for your treasonous actions against the Constitution of the United States. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_McVeigh |
Floppy trunk syndrome (abbreviated FTS, also known as flaccid trunk paralysis) is a condition that causes trunk paralysis in African bush elephants. Initially observed in 1989, the syndrome primarily affected bull elephants in several select regions in Zimbabwe. Afflicted elephants exhibit paralysis in their trunk, often having to adapt to feed. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floppy_trunk_syndrome |
A "deep farm" is a vertical farm built from refurbished underground tunnels or abandoned mine shafts. As temperature and humidity underground are generally temperate and constant, deep farms require less energy for heating. Deep farms can also use nearby groundwater to reduce the cost of water supply. Despite low costs, a deep farm can produce seven to nine times more food than a conventional farm above ground on the same area of land, according to Saffa Riffat, chair in Sustainable Energy at the University of Nottingham. Coupled with automated harvesting systems, these underground farms can be fully self-sufficient. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroponic_vertical_farming |
In Microsoft Windows operating systems, IPv4 addresses are valid location identifiers in Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) path names. However, the colon is an illegal character in a UNC path name. Thus, the use of IPv6 addresses is also illegal in UNC names. For this reason, Microsoft implemented a transcription algorithm to represent an IPv6 address in the form of a domain name that can be used in UNC paths. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address |
Shipping container architecture is a form of architecture that uses steel intermodal containers (shipping containers) as the main structural element. It is also referred to as cargotecture or arkitainer, portmanteau words formed from "cargo" and "architecture". This form of architecture is often associated with the tiny-house movement as well as the sustainable living movement. The use of containers as building materials has been growing in popularity due to their strength, wide availability, low cost, and eco-friendliness. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shipping_container_architecture |

Ring A synthesis (scheme 1) started by joining the THP protected propargyl alcohol 1.1 (the C2-C1-C14 fragment) and propionaldehyde 1.2 (fragment C13-C12-C18) in a nucleophilic addition with n-butyllithium to alcohol 1.3. The Lindlar catalyst then reduced the alkyne to the alkene in 1.4 and Swern oxidation converted the alcohol group to the enone group in 1.5. Fragment C11-C15-C16-C17 1.6 was then added as the lithium enolate of isobutyric acid ethyl ester in a conjugate addition to gamma keto ester 1.7. A Claisen condensation closed the ring to 1.8 and the intermediate enol is captured by pivaloyl chloride (piv) as a protective group. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuwajima_Taxol_total_synthesis |
In 2019, the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization produced its first report on The State of the World's Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture, which warned that "Many key components of biodiversity for food and agriculture at genetic, species and ecosystem levels are in decline. "The report states that "major global trends such as changes in climate, international markets and demography give rise to more immediate drivers such as land-use change, pollution and overuse of external inputs, overharvesting and the proliferation of invasive species. Interactions between drivers often exacerbate their effects on biodiversity for food and agriculture (BFA)." | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biodiversity_loss |
Buses can be parallel buses, which carry data words in parallel on multiple wires, or serial buses, which carry data in bit-serial form. The addition of extra power and control connections, differential drivers, and data connections in each direction usually means that most serial buses have more conductors than the minimum of one used in 1-Wire and UNI/O. As data rates increase, the problems of timing skew, power consumption, electromagnetic interference and crosstalk across parallel buses become more and more difficult to circumvent.

Paul Thomas Anderson recently was able to create 70-mm film prints for his film The Master. Film critic Roger Ebert criticized the use of DCPs after a cancelled film festival screening of Brian DePalma's film Passion at New York Film Festival as a result of a lockup due to the coding system.The theoretical resolution of 35 mm film is greater than that of 2K digital cinema. 2K resolution (2048×1080) is also only slightly greater than that of consumer based 1080p HD (1920x1080). | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_cinema |
On July 15, 2011, 667 people from 28 different countries participated in the online collective act of electronic civil disobedience called "Border Haunt" that targeted the policing of the U.S.-Mexico border. Participants collected entries from a database maintained by the Arizona Daily Star that holds the names and descriptions of migrants that died trying to cross the border territory and then sent those entries into a database run by the company BlueServo which is used to surveil and police the border. As a result, the border was conceptually and symbolically haunted for the duration of the one-day action as the border policing structure received over 1,000 reports of deceased migrants attempting to cross the border. The Border Haunt action was organized by Ian Alan Paul, a California-based new media artist and was reported on by Al Jazeera English and the Bay Citizen. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_civil_disobedience |
This means that, if someone has the DNA type of ABC, where the three loci were independent, we can say that the probability of having that DNA type is the probability of having type A times the probability of having type B times the probability of having type C. This has resulted in the ability to generate match probabilities of 1 in a quintillion (1x1018) or more. However, DNA database searches showed much more frequent than expected false DNA profile matches. Moreover, since there are about 12 million monozygotic twins on Earth, the theoretical probability is not accurate. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STR_analysis |
LCGs played a very important part in the Walcheren operations in October 1944. Landing Craft RocketThe Landing Craft Tank (Rocket), LCT(R), was an LCT modified to carry a large set of launchers for the British RP-3 "60 lb" rockets mounted on the covered-over tank deck. The full set of launchers was "in excess of" 1,000 and 5,000 reloads were kept below. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landing_ship |
These areas have long been recognised for their unique natural, cultural, scenic and landscape values, in particular the rich array of endemic and nationally significant flora and fauna. The planning area is important for: wilderness qualities; old-growth forests; outstanding and complex mosaic of landscapes (including heathlands, wetlands, and granite outcrops) location within an internationally recognised "biodiversity hotspot"; many rivers that originate within and pass through the area, including the Deep, Weld, Walpole, Frankland, Bow, Kent, Styx, Denmark, Mitchell and Hay rivers; range of recreation and tourism opportunities from wilderness hiking through to world class facilities such as the Tree Top Walk; and rich indigenous and non-indigenous cultural heritage. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walpole_Wilderness_Area |
Taking these quotes together, Klimovich concluded that Islam had to be classified as reactionary. Klimovich now contended that Islam resulted from a process of “feudalization” and centralization of the Arabic tribes, which was reflected in the centralization of the religious cults in the Kaaba. Put in these terms, Islam emerged as the “ideology of feudal lords (Russ. feodalov)”, representing exploitation and inequality. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_Orientalist_studies_in_Islam |
Robert Walser analyzed 88 metal songs' themes to determine if Professor Stuessy's claims were valid. In Walser's analysis, the dominant theme in the metal songs was "longing for intensity"; he found that the negative themes described by Stuessy and the PMRC were uncommon. Jeffrey Arnett analysed the lyrics from 115 metal songs: he found that the top three messages were "grim themes" about violence, angst and protest.Metal artists have had to defend their lyrics in front of the U.S. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_metal_lyrics |
Measurements on board the NASA satellite MESSENGER have revealed Encke may contribute to seasonal meteor showers on Mercury. The Mercury Atmospheric and Surface Composition Spectrometer (MASCS) instrument discovered seasonal surges of calcium since the probe began orbiting the planet in March 2011. The spikes in calcium levels are thought to originate from small dust particles hitting the planet and knocking calcium-bearing molecules into the atmosphere in a process called impact vaporization. However, the general background of interplanetary dust in the inner Solar System cannot, by itself, account for the periodic spikes in calcium. This suggests a periodic source of additional dust, for example, a cometary debris field. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encke's_Comet |
Due to their ability to grow on non-arable land microalgae may provide an alternative protein source for human consumption or animal feed. Microalgae proteins are also investigated as thickening agents or emulsion and foam stabilizers in the food industry to replace animal based proteins. Some microalgae accumulate chromophores like chlorophyll, carotenoids, or phycobiliproteins that may be extracted and used as coloring agents. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microalgae |
The kitefin shark has a moderately elongated body with a very short, rounded snout. The eyes and spiracles are large.

The state would purchase a 51% share, with the national government controlling 51% of this package and ten provincial governments receiving the remaining 49%.Investment in exploration at YPF as a percentage of profits had been far below those in most other Repsol subsidiaries, and declines in output at the firm represented 54% of the nation's lost oil production and 97% in the case of natural gas. Market analysts and Repsol blamed the decline in exploration and production on government controls on exports and prospecting leases, as well as price controls on domestic oil and gas. YPF increased its estimates of oil reserves in Argentina in 2012, but warned that government policies would have to change to allow investment in new production. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationalization_of_oil_supplies |
Periodic snapshots The periodic snapshot, as the name implies, takes a "picture of the moment", where the moment could be any defined period of time, e.g. a performance summary of a salesman over the previous month. A periodic snapshot table is dependent on the transactional table, as it needs the detailed data held in the transactional fact table in order to deliver the chosen performance output. Accumulating snapshots This type of fact table is used to show the activity of a process that has a well-defined beginning and end, e.g., the processing of an order. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fact_table |
Salvia divinorum is native to the Sierra Mazateca in Oaxaca, Mexico, where it is still used by the Mazatec, primarily to facilitate shamanic visions in the context of curing or divination. S. divinorum is one of several plant species with hallucinogenic properties that are ritually used by Mazatec shamans. In their rituals, the shamans use only freshly harvested S. divinorum leaves. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvia_divinorum |

The Air Force and Autonetics spent millions on a program to improve transistor and component reliability 100 times, leading to the "Minuteman high-rel parts" specifications. The techniques developed during this program were equally useful for improving all transistor construction, and greatly reduced the failure rate of transistor production lines in general. This improved yield, which had the effect of greatly lowering production costs, had enormous spin-off effects in the electronics industry. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minuteman_Missile |
Maximum elastic deformation must not exceed 10%, maximum permanent product deformation must not exceed 5% and packaging must not be damaged during the test. The test certificate includes a detailed description of the load under test as well as a picture of the pallet load before and after the test. Certified pallet loads must carry a label mentioning the date of the test, the name of the test institute, the producer and the maximum inertial force. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration_test |
After severe dehydration is corrected and appetite returns, feeding the person speeds the recovery of normal intestinal function, minimizes weight loss and supports continued growth in children. Small frequent meals are best tolerated (offering the child food every three to four hours). Mothers should continue to breastfeed. A child with watery diarrhea typically regains their appetite as soon as dehydration is corrected, whereas a child with bloody diarrhea often eats poorly until the illness resolves. Such children should be encouraged to resume normal feeding as soon as possible. Once diarrhea is corrected, the WHO recommends giving the child an extra meal each day for two weeks, and longer if the child is malnourished. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_rehydration_solution |
Mocha made landfall at 07:00 UTC just north of Sittwe, Myanmar, with 3-minute sustained winds of 215 km/h (135 mph). The JTWC issued its final bulletin on the storm upon landfall and estimated 1-minute sustained winds of 195 km/h (120 mph). Mocha rapidly weakened from Myanmar's rugged terrain as it was downgraded to very severe cyclonic storm intensity at 15:00 UTC. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclone_Mocha |
Drying defects are the most common form of degrade in timber, next to natural problems such as knots (Desch and Dinwoodie, 1996). There are two types of drying defects, although some defects involve both causes: Defects from shrinkage anisotropy, resulting in warping: cupping, bowing, twisting, crooking, spring and diamonding. Defects from uneven drying, resulting in the rupture of the wood tissue, such as checks (surface, end and internal), end splits, honey-combing and case hardening. Collapse, often shown as corrugation, or so-called washboarding of the wood surface, may also occur (Innes, 1996). Collapse is a defect that results from the physical flattening of fibres to above the fibre saturation point and is thus not a form of shrinkage anisotropy.The standard organizations in Australia and New Zealand (AS/NZS 4787, 2001) have developed a standard for timber quality. The five measures of drying quality include: moisture content gradient and presence of residual drying stress (case-hardening); surface, internal and end checks; collapse; distortions; discolouration caused by drying. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_drying |
Japanese words are spelled using characters that represent syllables (morae), rather than individual phonetic units (phonemes) as in the English alphabet. These characters are compiled into two syllabaries: hiragana and katakana. Japanese also makes extensive use of adopted Chinese characters, or kanji, which may be pronounced with one or more syllables. Therefore, when a word or phrase is abbreviated, it does not take the form of initials, but the key characters of the original phrase, such that a new word is made, often recognizably derived from the original. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_abbreviation |
Eight days later on March 15, News Corporation announced that it had signed an agreement with White Knight Broadcasting, in which KSHV would become the market's MyNetworkTV affiliate, as part of a deal that also saw Fox-affiliated sister station WNTZ-TV in Alexandria being committed to join the network under a secondary affiliation.On May 1, KPXJ became among of a handful of UPN-affiliated stations not owned by Fox Television Stations to remove on-air brand references to the network – rebranding as "KPXJ 21" – and cease promotion of the network's programs. However, it officially remained a UPN affiliate until September 17, 2006, before affiliating with The CW when that network debuted on September 18. KSHV-TV, meanwhile, joined MyNetworkTV upon that network's launch on September 5; unlike in other markets where The WB and UPN both had over-the-air affiliates — where the WB-turned-MyNetworkTV outlet either disaffiliated from The WB entirely or remained a part-time affiliate during the transition — KPXJ assumed temporary rights to the WB affiliation, carrying the final two weeks of that network's programming between 12:00 a.m. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KPXJ |
A process hazard analysis (PHA) (or process hazard evaluation) is an exercise for the identification of hazards of a process facility and the qualitative or semi-quantitative assessment of the associated risk. A PHA provides information intended to assist managers and employees in making decisions for improving safety and reducing the consequences of unwanted or unplanned releases of hazardous materials. A PHA is directed toward analyzing potential causes and consequences of fires, explosions, releases of toxic or flammable chemicals and major spills of hazardous chemicals, and it focuses on equipment, instrumentation, utilities, human actions, and external factors that might impact the process. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_Hazard_Analysis |
In addition to potentially signaling need or being a means to manipulate parents, crying in human infants has been suggested to serve as a costly signal meant to decrease the child’s risk of infanticide, something which is seen across cultures.Due to the fact that conflicts of interests exist between an offspring and both its parents and siblings, parents are expected to be sensitive to the quality of their offspring in determining how much investment to provide. As parental investment in one offspring cannot go to another, the potential exists for investment in a new child to reduce an individual’s fitness. This can happen when an offspring is unlikely to survive, thereby favoring investment in other areas. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Costly_signaling_theory_in_evolutionary_psychology |
Evidence of dedications is provided back into Classical antiquity. Besides the wish to express their gratitude towards a certain person, the authors often had also other reasons to dedicate their work to a particular person. Well into the 18th century, it was not usual for publishers to remunerate the authors; authors tended to be paid or remunerated as one element of a patron-client relationship, in which the author-client paid tribute, in the dedication, to his or her patron. A typical writer dedicated "their book to a high standing personality – to Fürsts or bishops – or to a city and tried to gain some money through this practice".In many cases the petitioner was lucky and received a gift from the patron. In some cases, the writer groveled before the patron and a formal dedication "contained often a very elaborate and submissive affection". In some cases not only the authors tried to get some money, but also the printers tried through dedications to cover a part of their costs. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dedication_(publishing) |

Integrate over a time interval ε {\displaystyle \varepsilon } , Insert the Fourier integral for the δ {\displaystyle \delta } -function, This equation expresses p ( x ′ , t + ε ) {\displaystyle p(x',t+\varepsilon )} as functional of p ( x , t ) {\displaystyle p(x,t)} . Iterating ( t ′ − t ) / ε {\displaystyle (t'-t)/\varepsilon } times and performing the limit ε → 0 {\displaystyle \varepsilon \rightarrow 0} gives a path integral with action The variables x ~ {\displaystyle {\tilde {x}}} conjugate to x {\displaystyle x} are called "response variables".Although formally equivalent, different problems may be solved more easily in the Fokker–Planck equation or the path integral formulation. The equilibrium distribution for instance may be obtained more directly from the Fokker–Planck equation. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fokker_Planck_equation |
The gene is believed to play a major role in social, cognitive, and emotional behavior. A decrease in OXTR expression by methylation of the OXTR gene is associated with Callous and unemotional traits in adolescence, rigid thinking in anorexia nervosa, problems with facial and emotional recognition, and difficulties in the affect regulation. A reduction in this gene is believed to lead to prenatal stress, postnatal depression, and social anxiety. Further research must be gathered before concluding these findings, however strong evidence is pointing in this direction. Studies on OXTR methylation—which downregulates oxytocin mechanisms—suggest this process is associated with increased gray matter density in the amygdala, implicating OXTR regulation in stress and parasympathetic regulation.In some mammals, oxytocin receptors are also found in the kidney and heart. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxytocin_receptor |
Contrary to intuition, F F D ( S , C ) {\displaystyle FFD(S,C)} is not a monotonic function of C.: Fig.4 Similarly, F F D ( S , C ) {\displaystyle FFD(S,C)} is not a monotonic function of the sizes of items in S: it is possible that an item shrinks in size, but the number of bins increases. However, the FFD algorithm has an "asymptotic monotonicity" property, defined as follows. : Lem.2.1 For every instance S and integer m, let MinCap(S,m) be the smallest capacity C such that O P T ( S , C ) ≤ m {\displaystyle OPT(S,C)\leq m} For every integer m, let MinRatio(m) be the infimum of the numbers r≥1 such that, for all input sets S, F F D ( S , r ⋅ MinCap ( S , m ) ) ≤ m {\displaystyle FFD(S,r\cdot {\text{MinCap}}(S,m))\leq m} . | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-fit-decreasing_bin_packing |
Both games helped the genre increase its sales by 38% over November 2009, according to NPD. Harmonix is expected to post more than $100 million in profit for 2011 buoyed by sales of Dance Central and downloadable content for the game, according to Bloomberg.

Sixteen Digital Equipment Corporation PDP-11 minicomputers were used as the processing elements, named Compute Modules (CMs) in the system. Each CM had a local memory of 8K and a local set of peripheral devices. One of the challenges was that a device was only available through its unique connected processor, so the input/output (I/O) system (designed by Roy Levien) hid the connectivity of the devices and routed the requests to the hosting processor. If a processor went down, the devices connected to its Unibus became unavailable, which became a problem in overall system reliability. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.mmp |
Therefore, in such instances, it may be appropriate to modify or adjust data so that the groups being compared for DIF are in fact equal or closer in size. Dummy coding or recoding is a common practice employed to adjust for disparities in the size of the reference and focal group. In this case, all Non-White ethnic groups can be grouped together in order to have a relatively equal sample size for the reference and focal groups. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_item_functioning |
Peercoin uses both the proof-of-work and proof-of-stake algorithms. Both are used to spread the distribution of new coins. During its primary years, Peercoin relied heavily on PoW, although there has now been a transition to PoS. Proof-of-stake is used to secure the network: The chain with longest PoS coin age wins in case of a blockchain split-up. A transaction fee prevents spam and is burned (instead of being collected by a miner), benefiting the overall network.To recover from lost coins and to discourage hoarding, the currency supply targets growth at 1% per year in the long run. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peercoin |
The reported dream enactment behaviors are frequently violent, and involve a theme of being chased or attacked. People with RBD may fall out of bed or injure themselves or their bed partners, which may cause bruises, fractures, or subdural hematomae. Because people are more likely to remember or report violent dreams and behaviors—and to be referred to a specialist when injury occurs—recall or selection bias may explain the prevalence of violence reported in RBD. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dementia_with_Lewy_bodies |
Common production from the residue then begins by oxidation with sodium carbonate to produce selenium dioxide, which is mixed with water and acidified to form selenous acid (oxidation step). Selenous acid is bubbled with sulfur dioxide (reduction step) to give elemental selenium.About 2,000 tonnes of selenium were produced in 2011 worldwide, mostly in Germany (650 t), Japan (630 t), Belgium (200 t), and Russia (140 t), and the total reserves were estimated at 93,000 tonnes. These data exclude two major producers: the United States and China. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selenium |
For publicly traded companies, it is possible to find a project's discount rate by using an equilibrium asset pricing model to find the required return on equity for the company and then assuming that the risk profile of a given project is similar to that the company faces. Commonly used models include the capital asset pricing model (CAPM):and the Fama-French model:where the β i {\displaystyle \beta _{i}} terms correspond to the factor loadings. A generalization of these methods can be found in arbitrage pricing theory, which allows for an arbitrary number of risk premiums in the calculation of the required return. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benefit–cost_analysis |

Remember that for P1, C is equal to A since they cut the cake in the first round. Also, A = A1 + A2 = A1 + (A21 + A22 + A23); therefore C ≥ A1 + A21.

In some cases, hardy flowers for cutting were grown outside there, rather than in the flower garden. A large country house hardly expected to buy any vegetables, herbs or fruit, and the surplus was often distributed as presents; the walled example at Croome Court in England covers seven acres, and the gardens have a large "Temple Greenhouse", an orangery in the form of a Roman Temple. A symbol of American self-sufficiency and the colonial homestead, practical kitchen gardens were the center of home life in early America. In Europe, especially Britain, the difficulties in food supply during World War II resulted in a huge, if temporary, upsurge in growing vegetables in small gardens, with much encouragement from the government Ministry of Food. In modern gardening, there has been interest in integrating the growing of food plants within a mainly ornamental garden; fruit trees and cooking herbs are the simplest and most popular expression of this. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herb_garden |

The syntactic properties of tense have figured prominently in formal analyses of how tense-marking interacts with word order. Some languages (such as French) allow an adverb (Adv) to intervene between a tense-marked verb (V) and its direct object (O); in other words, they permit ordering. In contrast, other languages (such as English) do not allow the adverb to intervene between the verb and its direct object, and require ordering. Tense in syntax is represented by the category label T, which is the head of a TP (tense phrase). | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammatical_tense |
While Microsoft's first attempt at bringing computing to the Chinese masses was a failure, later events have proved more favorable to the company. Lenovo's purchase of IBM's Windows-based computing division in 2005 gave the consumer electronics corporation, which is partially owned by the Chinese government, a strong presence in the Windows computing market both at home in China and abroad that has persisted since the initial acquisition. However, Lenovo's computers are full-fledged PCs, and do not bear a strong resemblance to the all-in-one television component that Microsoft envisioned becoming a large success in China. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Venus |
