wikipedia_2018-103 | John Philoponus ( 490 – 570 ) considered that the heavens were made of fire , not of aether , yet maintained that circular motion is one of the two natural motions of fire . In a theological work , On the Creation of the World ( De <unk> mundi ) , he denied that the heavens are moved by either a soul or by angels , proposing that " it is not impossible that God , who created all these things , imparted a motive force to the Moon , the Sun , and other stars – just as the inclination to heavy and light bodies , and the movements due to the internal soul to all living beings – in order that the angels do not move them by force . " This is interpreted as an application of the concept of impetus to the motion of the celestial spheres . In an earlier commentary on Aristotle 's Physics , Philoponus compared the innate power or nature that accounts for the rotation of the heavens to the innate power or nature that accounts for the fall of rocks . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-132 | The predilection of the Welsh for roasted cheese led to the dish of Welsh rarebit , or Welsh rabbit , seasoned melted cheese poured over toasted bread .

Welsh folk rarely ate rabbit due to the cost and as land owners would not allow rabbit hunting , so the term is more likely a slur on the Welsh . The name evolved from rabbit to rarebit , possibly to remove the slur from Welsh cuisine or due to simple reinterpretation of the word to make menus more pleasant . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-135 | Management is based primarily on stopping the usage of the precipitating drugs , the administration of serotonin antagonists such as cyproheptadine , and supportive care including the control of agitation , the control of autonomic instability , and the control of hyperthermia . Additionally , those who ingest large doses of serotonergic agents may benefit from gastrointestinal decontamination with activated charcoal if it can be administered within an hour of overdose . The intensity of therapy depends on the severity of symptoms . If the symptoms are mild , treatment may only consist of discontinuation of the offending medication or medications , offering supportive measures , giving benzodiazepines for myoclonus , and waiting for the symptoms to resolve . Moderate cases should have all thermal and cardiorespiratory abnormalities corrected and can benefit from serotonin antagonists . The serotonin antagonist cyproheptadine is the recommended initial therapy , although there have been no controlled trials demonstrating its efficacy for serotonin syndrome . Despite the absence of controlled trials , there are a number of case reports detailing apparent improvement after people have been administered cyproheptadine . Animal experiments also suggest a benefit from serotonin antagonists . <unk> is only available as tablets and therefore can only be administered orally or via a nasogastric tube ; it is unlikely to be effective in people administered activated charcoal and has limited use in severe cases . Additional pharmacological treatment for severe case includes administering atypical antipsychotic drugs with serotonin antagonist activity such as olanzapine . Critically ill people should receive the above therapies as well as sedation or neuromuscular paralysis . People who have autonomic instability such as low blood pressure require treatment with direct @-@ acting sympathomimetics such as epinephrine , norepinephrine , or <unk> . Conversely , hypertension or tachycardia can be treated with short @-@ acting antihypertensive drugs such as nitroprusside or <unk> ; longer acting drugs such as propranolol should be avoided as they may lead to hypotension and shock . The cause of serotonin toxicity or accumulation is an important factor in determining the course of treatment . Serotonin is <unk> by monoamine oxidase in the presence of oxygen , so if care is taken to prevent an unsafe spike in body temperature or metabolic acidosis , oxygenation will assist in dispatching the excess serotonin . The same principle applies to alcohol intoxication . In cases of serotonin syndrome caused by monoamine oxidase inhibitors oxygenation will not help to dispatch serotonin . In such instances hydration is the main concern until the enzyme is regenerated . | wikipedia-2018 |
wikipedia_2018-136 | Scaling this up to a production plant presented a formidable technical challenge .

The prospect of keeping so many rotors operating continuously at high speed appeared daunting , and when Beams ran his experimental apparatus , he obtained only 60 % of the predicted yield , indicating that more centrifuges would be required . Beams , Urey and Cohen then began work on a series of improvements which promised to increase the efficiency of the process . However , frequent failures of motors , shafts and bearings at high speeds delayed work on the pilot plant . In November 1942 the centrifuge process was abandoned by the Military Policy Committee following a recommendation by Conant , Nichols and August C. Klein of Stone & Webster . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-142 | A survey in 1931 concluded that parts of Salford contained some of the worst slums in the country . Many houses were infested by rats and lacked elementary amenities . Inspectors found that of 950 houses surveyed , 257 were in a state of bad repair with leaking roofs , broken flooring and rotten woodwork . The inspectors were " struck by the courage and perseverance with which the greater number of tenants kept their houses clean and respectable under most adverse conditions " . By 1933 slum clearance projects were under way , and by the end of 1956 over a thousand families had been rehoused in overspill estates at Little Hulton . These clearances have , for some , changed the character of the area to such an extent that " observers in search of the typical Salford may have to look in Eccles and Swinton , for much of the community and townscape ... has gone from Salford , replaced by tall blocks of flats " . Large areas of the city were redeveloped in the 1960s and 1970s , with Victorian era terraced housing estates that inspired painter L. S.

wikipedia_2018-144 | The value of the battleship has been questioned , even during the period of their prominence . In spite of the immense resources spent on battleships , there were few pitched battleship clashes . Even with their enormous firepower and protection , battleships were increasingly vulnerable to much smaller , cheaper weapons : initially the torpedo and the naval mine , and later aircraft and the guided missile . The growing range of naval engagements led to the aircraft carrier replacing the battleship as the leading capital ship during World War II , with the last battleship to be launched being HMS Vanguard in 1944 . Battleships were retained by the United States Navy into the Cold War for fire support purposes before being stricken from the U.S. Naval Vessel Register in the 2000s . | wikipedia-2018 |
wikipedia_2018-145 | Hugh was the son of Edward of Wells and elder brother of Jocelin of Wells , Bishop of Bath . Hugh 's year of birth is unknown , but he was probably an old man at his death in 1235 . The fact that he never left his residence from March 1233 until his death implies that he was impaired from old age . He first appears as a witness on documents of Reginald fitzJocelin , the Bishop of Bath in the late 1180s . After fitzJocelin 's death in 1191 , Hugh continued in the service of the next bishop , Savaric FitzGeldewin . By the end of the 1190s , Hugh was a canon of Wells Cathedral . Although Hugh 's brother Jocelin was given the title of magister , implying that he attended a university , Hugh is never called magister , making it unlikely that he ever received much schooling . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-149 | The album was originally released in a gatefold LP sleeve designed by Hipgnosis and George Hardie . Hipgnosis had designed several of the band 's previous albums , with controversial results ; EMI had reacted with confusion when faced with the cover designs for Atom Heart Mother and Obscured by Clouds , as they had expected to see traditional designs which included lettering and words . Designers Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey Powell were able to ignore such criticism as they were employed by the band . For The Dark Side of the Moon , Richard Wright instructed them to come up with something " smarter , neater – more classy " .

wikipedia_2018-154 | A large aspect of the hurricane 's devastation was the havoc it wrought on the eastern Gulf of Mexico oyster industry , particularly in the Apalachicola Bay area and off the coast of Alabama . Elena subjected the Apalachicola Bay reefs to high winds , strong tidal action , and moderate to heavy rainfall , churning up huge quantities of silt and mud which suffocated up to 90 % of live oysters and virtually destroyed the most important harvesting sites . Commercial harvesting was suspended until May 1986 , at which time some of the prominent reefs of the eastern Apalachicola Bay system were deemed able to sustain oyster @-@ catching . Low astronomical tides amplified the effects of severe turbulence in the water . Thousands of individuals relying on the Apalachicola Bay oyster industry soon found themselves struggling to make a living ; losses in production at two major reefs were expected to surpass $ 30 million .
