Frosted_glass
|
Frosted glass is produced by the sandblasting or acid etching of clear sheet glass . It has the effect of rendering the glass translucent by scattering of light during transmission , thus blurring images while still transmitting light . Applications : To obtain visual privacy while admitting light . Decorative patterns may be imposed upon otherwise plain glass by using wax or other inhibitors to retain transparent areas . Frosted glass in light bulbs is used for evenly distributing the light from the bulb 's filament across its surface area . To distribute light uniformly in a photographic contact printer . To create an airtight seal in tubes . The frosted glass effect can also be achieved by the application of vinyl film , used as a sort of stencil on the glass surface . `` Photo-resist '' , or photo-resistant film is also available , which can be produced to mask off the area surrounding a decorative design , or logo on the glass surface . A similar effect may also be accomplished with the use of canned frosted glass sprays .

25th_Street_Station
|
25th Street Station was a proposed mixed use development to be located in the Remington , Old Goucher , and Charles Village neighborhoods of central Baltimore . It received final design approval from Baltimore 's Planning Commission on December 16 , 2010 , and will commence construction in early 2011 , with a 2012 opening . The development will include 330000 sqft of retail space , including a Walmart and Lowe 's as anchor tenants , with an array of smaller retailers and 70 apartments . As of October 2011 construction of 25th Street Station has not begun yet and the Lowe 's will no longer be an anchor . On May 20 , 2014 , the project 's primary developer , WV Urban Developments , withdrew from the project , citing numerous ongoing legal issues and challenges as the cause . The WV Urban 's project manager for the site upon the announcement of its withdrawal stated , `` WV Urban Developments is no longer pursuing its 25th Street Station project . As you are well aware , the project has been the target of numerous appeals and filings by opponents , which have delayed the project for years . '' The appeals were stated to `` have contributed to an environment sufficiently uncertain that the relevant parties are unable to reach the agreements necessary for WV to continue . '' WV Urban Developments had spent more than $ 5 million in planning costs and attorney 's fees defending the project against lawsuits that had been dismissed but appealed . As of August 2015 , the 25th Street Station project is essentially dead , WV Urban Developments sold the land that was to be used for the 25th Street Station project to a new developer , Seawall Development Co. -LRB- who has a proven track record of locally-oriented development and community engagement within Baltimore City -RRB- in late-2014 who on March 17 , 2015 agreed with the communities that surrounded this project that they would not develop the property in accordance to the 25th Street Station PUD and the November 21 , 2013 decision by the Baltimore City Planning Commission -LRB- essentially killing the proposed Walmart that was highly controversial from the original proposal -RRB- and would not oppose to a potential action by the Baltimore City Council and the Planning Commission to cancel or repeal the 25th Street Station PUD in exchange for the dismissal of two appeals pending within the Maryland Court of Special Appeals that was filed in opposition of the 25th Street Station project . The proposed site is bounded by West 25th Street to the north , Maryland Avenue to the east , West 24th Street to the south , and the CSX Railroad line to the west .

Perl_Mongers
|
Perl Mongers is part of The Perl Foundation and provides services to user groups for the Perl programming language . Perl Mongers was created in 1998 as a stand-alone organization by brian d foy who formed the first Perl users group - the New York Perl Mongers , or NY.pm , in 1997 at the First O'Reilly Perl Conference along with other founding members including Piglet Evans , Adam Turoff and David H Adler . The '' . pm '' plays off the conventional file extension for a Perl module and `` Perl Mongers '' is a backronym for that . Originally , brian d foy 's idea was to name the group after the Perl regular expression / New York Perl M -LRB- -LRB- o | u -RRB- ngers | aniacs -RRB- * / , but `` Perl Mongers '' became the popular expression of that . Soon after NY.pm announced its formation , the second Perl Mongers group was started by Chris Nandor in Boston . Others followed , in the District of Columbia , Los Angeles , and St. Louis . By the mid-1998 , groups had formed in Atlanta , Chicago , London , Minneapolis , Montreal , Philadelphia , San Francisco , and Seattle . By the end of 1998 , there were also groups in Amsterdam , Blacksburg , Champaign , Dayton , Lisbon , Melbourne , Pittsburgh , Rhode Island , Stockholm , Sydney , Grand Rapids , Michigan , and Vancouver . At the Second O'Reilly Perl Conference in 1998 , brian d foy , David H. Adler and Adam Turoff helped to create over 100 new Perl user groups by providing a means for people to connect with others in their area . Perl Mongers provided services including web hosting , mailing lists , and user group leader discussions . The Grand Rapids Perl Mongers initially wanted to call themselves the Grand Rapid 's Perl Monkees , but brian d foy would n't let them . In the early days of Perl Mongers , he was concerned with the unity of effort and tried not only to start new user groups , but get groups to participate in the Perl Mongers framework as an overriding organization . In 2000 , Perl Mongers became part of The Perl Foundation where it continues its mission to organize and serve Perl user groups . In Dave Cross 's 2005 Perl Mongers Census , he recorded 178 active Perl user groups .

Robert_I,_Latin_Emperor

Robert I , also Robert of Courtenay -LRB- died 1228 -RRB- , Latin Emperor of Constantinople , was a younger son of the emperor Peter II of Courtenay , and a descendant of the French king , Louis VI , while his mother Yolanda of Flanders was a sister of Baldwin and Henry of Flanders , the first and second emperors of the Latin Empire . When it became known in France that Peter of Courtenay was dead , his eldest son , Philip , Marquis of Namur , renounced the succession to the Latin empire of Constantinople in favor of his brother Robert , who set out to take possession of his distracted inheritance , which was then ruled by Conon of Béthune as regent . Crowned emperor on March 25 , 1221 Robert , who was surrounded by enemies , appealed for help to the pope Honorius III and to the king of France Philip II ; but meanwhile his lands were falling into the hands of the rival Despotate of Epirus and Empire of Nicaea -LRB- Battle of Poimanenos -RRB- . Some little aid was sent from western Europe , but soon Robert was compelled to make peace with his chief foe , John Ducas Vatatzes , emperor of Nicaea , who was confirmed in all his conquests . Robert promised to marry Eudoxia , daughter of the late emperor of Nicaea , Theodore I Lascaris and Anna Angelina . He had been betrothed to Eudoxia on a former occasion ; the circumstances surrounding the failed negotiations are unclear , but George Akropolites states that the arrangement was blocked on religious grounds by the Orthodox Patriarch Manuel Sarantenos : Robert 's sister Marie de Courtenay was married to Emperor Theodore I Laskaris . Accordingly , Robert , already Theodore 's brother-in-law , could not also be his son-in-law . Regardless , Robert soon repudiated this engagement , and married the Lady of Neuville , already the fiancée of a Burgundian gentleman . Heading a conspiracy , the Burgundian drove Robert from Constantinople , he fled to Rome to seek redress from the pope who convinced him to return to Constantinople , but on his return trip , in early in 1228 , the emperor died in Morea .

Judenzählung
|
Judenzählung -LRB- German for `` Jewish census '' -RRB- was a measure instituted by the German Military High Command in October 1916 , during the upheaval of World War I. Designed to confirm accusations of the lack of patriotism among German Jews , the census disproved the charges , but its results were not made public . However , its figures were leaked out , being published in an antisemitic brochure . The Jewish authorities , who themselves had compiled statistics which considerably exceeded the figures in the brochure , were not only denied access to the government archives but also informed by the Republican Minister of Defense that the contents of the antisemitic brochure were correct . In the atmosphere of growing antisemitism , many German Jews saw `` the Great War '' as an opportunity to prove their commitment to the German homeland .

Spamvertising
|
Spamvertising is the practice of sending email spam in order to advertise a website . The word is a portmanteau of the words spam and advertising . The word also refers to vandalizing blogs , online forums or wikis with hyperlinks in order to attain a higher search engine ranking for the vandal 's website . Spamvertisers insert links to their websites -LRB- typically , sites purporting to sell a commercial product -RRB- and add keywords of common or related searches . The apparent goal is that a search engine will find the vandalized page full of links and improve the popularity rating of the pages to which they link . This is typically done by automated editing programs which look for editable text fields in web forms and automatically fill them in with web links . The links typically lead to pills , porn and poker sites . It is recommended that you do not click on these links , as they could be phishing links or may contain malware . Most legitimate website providers do not tolerate this practice and will delete any site that has been spamvertised . The practice has led to many editable online resources employing anti-spam countermeasures , including the use of captchas in order to prevent automated editing .

Down_payment
|
Down payment -LRB- or downpayment -RRB- is a payment -LRB- Payed on the Ground -RRB- used in the context of the purchase of expensive items such as a car and a house , whereby the payment is the initial upfront portion of the total amount due and it is usually given in cash at the time of finalizing the transaction . A loan or the amount in cash is then required to make the full payment . The main purposes of a down payment are to ensure that the lending institution has enough capital to create money for a loan in fractional reserve banking systems and to recover some of the balance due on the loan in the event that the borrower defaults . In real estate , the asset is used as collateral in order to secure the loan against default . If the borrower fails to repay the loan , the lender is legally entitled to sell the asset and retain a portion of the proceeds sufficient to cover the remaining balance on the loan , including fees and interest added . A down payment in this case reduces the lender 's risk to less than the value of the collateral , making it more likely that the lender will recover the full amount in the event of default . The size of the down payment thus determines the extent to which the lender is protected against the various factors that might reduce the value of the collateral , as well as lost profits between the time of the last payment and the eventual sale of the collateral . Furthermore , making a down payment demonstrates that the borrower is able to raise a certain amount of money for long-term investment , which the lender may desire as evidence that the borrower 's finances are sound , and that the borrower is not borrowing beyond his or her means . If the borrower is unable to pay off the loan in its entirety , he/she forfeits the down payment amount .
