Trigonometry/Thales Theorem

= Construction of Right Triangles = Right triangles are easily constructed. Recall that a diameter is a straight line which starts at one point on the circle and goes through the center to the other side. Using this property of a circle:

 * 1) Construct a diameter of a circle. Call the points where the diameter touches the circle a and c.
 * 2) Choose a distinct point b on the circle (any point that is neither a nor c).
 * 3) Construct line segments connecting points a, b and c.

Provided the above three directions are followed, the resulting triangle Δabc will be a right triangle. This result is known as Thales' theorem.

This right triangle can be further divided into two isosceles triangles by adding a line segment from b to the center of the circle.

To simplify the following discussion, we specify that the circle has diameter 1 and is oriented such that the diameter drawn above runs left to right. We shall denote the angle of the triangle at the right θ and that at the left φ. The sides of the right triangle will be labeled, starting on the right, a, b, c, so that a is the rightmost side, c the leftmost, and b the diameter. We know from earlier that side b is opposite the right angle and is called the hypotenuse. Side a is opposite angle φ, while side c is opposite angle θ. We reiterate that the diameter, now called b, shall be assumed to have length 1 except where otherwise noted.

By constructing a right angle to the diameter at one of the points where it crosses the circle and then using the method outlined earlier for producing binary fractions of the right angle, we can construct one of the angles, say θ, as an angle of known measure between 0 and π / 2. The measure of the other angle φ is then π - π/2 - θ = π/2 - θ, the complement of angle θ. Likewise, we can bisect the diameter of the circle to produce lengths which are binary fractions of the length of the diameter. Using a compass, a binary fractional length of the diameter can be used to construct side a (or c) having a known size (with regard to the diameter b) from which side c can be constructed.

= Using Right Triangles to find Unknown Sides =

Finding unknown sides from two other sides
From the Pythagorean Theorem, we know that:

 * $$a^2 + b^2 = c^2. \,$$

Recall that c (the diameter/hypotenuse in the above example) has been defined as having a length of one, therefore:

 * $$b^2 = 1 - a^2. \,$$

permits us to calculate the length of b squared. It may happen that b squared is a fraction such as 1/4 for which a rational square root can be found, in this case as 1/2, alternatively, we could use Newton's Method to find an approximate value for b.

Finding unknown sides from one side and one (non-right) angle
As any triangle could be compared to our basic triangle (formed from a circle with a diameter of one), a table enumerating the relationships between angles and side lengths would be very useful to understanding the properties of any triangle. However, such a table would be unwieldy in practice and it is often not necessary to know the exact value.

Of course, given an angle $$\theta$$, we could construct a right angled triangle using ruler and compass that had $$\theta\,$$ as one of its angles, we could then measure the length of the side that corresponds to a to evaluate the $$\cos$$ function. Such measurements would necessarily be inexact; it would be a problem in physics to see how accurately such measurements can be made; using trigonometry we can make precise predictions with which the results of these physical measurements can be compared.

The most common way of communicating the idea that relationships exist without providing exact details takes the form of a 'function'. A function is like a machine that takes some simple input and produces some simple output. Usually a function defines some kind of rule ([| Function]) and provides us a handy notation useful in trigonometry. That way, we know that we're using a certain relationship without needing to know the exact numerical values. Basic trigonometric functions are simply stand-ins for the relationship between angles and sides of a triangle.

One such function, which allows us to know the relationship between any value of $$\theta\,$$ and the corresponding value of $$a\,$$ is called the cosine or $$\cos\,$$. This universal relationship is represented as: $$\frac{a}{c} = \cos\theta$$ which would save us the work of constructing angles and lengths and making difficult deductions from them.

This means that if you know the cosine of an angle, you also know the relationship between the lengths of the sides. The actual size of the triangle can be bigger or smaller, but the mathematical relationship represented by the cosine does not change so long as the size of the angle remains constant.

Cosine example
Some explicit values for the cos function are known. For $$\theta\, = 0$$, sides $$a\,$$ and $$c\,$$ coincide: $$a = c = \frac{a}{c} = 1$$, so $$\cos\left(0\right) = 1$$. For $$\theta = \frac{\pi}{2}$$, sides $$b\,$$ and $$c\,$$ coincide and are of length 1, and side $$a\,$$ is of zero length, consequently $$a\, = 0$$, $$c\, = 1$$. $$\frac{a}{c} = 0$$ and $$\cos\frac{\pi}{2} = 0$$.

The simplest right angle triangle we can draw is the isosceles right angled triangle, it has a pair of angles of size $$\frac{\pi}{4}$$ radians, and if its hypotenuse is considered to be of length one, then the sides $$a\,$$ and $$b$$ are of length $$\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}$$ as can be verified by the theorem of Pythagoras. If the side $$a\,$$ is chosen to be the same length as the radius of the circle containing the right angled triangle, then the right hand isosceles triangle obtained by splitting the right angled triangle from the circumference of the circle to its center is an equilateral triangle, so $$\theta$$ must be $$\frac{\pi}{3}$$, and $$\phi$$ must be $$\frac{\pi}{6}$$ and $$b\,^2$$ must be $$1 - \frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{4}$$.

= Properties of the cosine and sine functions=

Period
A full revolution is an angle of 2π radians, so increasing an angle by this amount gets you exactly back to your starting point. Therefore, a perfect circle is maintained, along with the relationships formed by triangles within, by adding 2π to any angle θ. This is called the period, --the size of the angle or the time period over which the relationships begin to repeat (correlating the two is complex, and allows us to talk about wave theory).

Using functions, we can represent this fact in terms of the cosine function by stating that : $$\cos\theta = \cos\left(\theta + 2\pi n \right),\,$$

Knowing the period of the sine and cosine functions (and by derivation, that of other functions) is useful because it means that we can substitute one angle for another when we know that the period is the same. This helps in calculations, such as when there is the need to add or subtract angles.

Half Angle and Double Angle Formulas
We can derive a formula for cos(θ/2) in terms of cos(θ) which allows us to find the value of the cos function for many more angles. To derive the formula, draw an isosceles triangle, draw a circle through its corners, connect the center of the circle with radii to each corner of the isoceles triangle, extend the radius through the apex of the isoceles triangle into a diameter of the circle and connect the point where the diameter crosses the other side of the circle with lines to the other corners of the isoceles triangle.

Therefore:

$$\cos (\theta /2) = \sqrt{\frac {1 + \cos \theta}{2}}$$

which gives a method of calculating the cos of half an angle in terms of the cos of the original angle. For this reason * is called the "Cosine Half Angle Formula".

The half angle formula can be applied to split the newly discovered angle which in turn can be split again ad infinitum. Of course, each new split involves finding the square root of a term with a square root, so this cannot be recommended as an effective procedure for computing values of the cos function.

Equation * can be inverted to find cos(θ) in terms of cos(θ)/2:

$$\begin{matrix}&\cos (\theta /2) =  \sqrt{\frac{1 + \cos (\theta)}{2}}\\ \Rightarrow &  \cos^2(\theta/2)  =  \frac{1 + \cos(\theta)}{2} \\ \Rightarrow &  \cos^2(\theta/2) - \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{\cos (\theta)}{2}  \\ \Rightarrow & 2\cos^2(\theta/2) - 1   =  \cos(\theta) \\ \end{matrix} $$

substituting $$\delta\ = \frac{\theta}{2}$$ gives:

$$2\cos^2(\delta) - 1    = \cos(2\delta) \,$$

that is a formula for the cos of double an angle in terms of the cos of the original angle, and is called the "cosine double angle sum formula".

Portuguese Surinamese

Portuguese Surinamese people are Surinamese citizens of Portuguese ancestry.

History
In 1853, the first Portuguese people arrived from the Portuguese island of Madeira, having been sponsored by a coalition of planters and by the colonial government. They were actually on their way to British Guiana, where the planters also sought alternative sources of labour after the abolition of slavery, but ended up in Suriname. A total of 500 Madeirans came as indentured workers to Suriname. At the end of their contract, they left the fields and sought an existence in the market. In later years, more immigrants from Madeira and British Guiana came to Suriname, however, no longer as indentured laborers but as free immigrants.

Portuguese Sephardic Jews had settled between the 15th and 16th centuries before the Dutch arrived. The first Portuguese Jews came from the Netherlands, Portugal and Italy to settle in the old capital Torarica.

Mike Sherrard

Michael Watson Sherrard (born June 21, 1963) is an American former professional football player who was a wide receiver in the National Football League (NFL) for the Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers, New York Giants, and Denver Broncos. He played college football for the UCLA Bruins. Sherrard was sellected in the first round of the 1986 NFL draft.

Early years
Sherrard attended Chico High School in Chico, California, where he was a multi-sport athlete, lettering in football, basketball, baseball and track.

He moved on to UCLA as an unrecruited walk-on athlete and was redshirted after breaking his finger in fall practice. The next year, he suffered from mononucleosis when he reported for spring practice and registered only 2 receptions during the season, while backing up wide receivers Dokie Williams and Jo-Jo Townsell.

Sherrard became a starter as a sophomore in 1983, posting 48 receptions (school record) for 709 yards. He also was the first player in school history to have 2 games of more than 135 receiving yards; 136 yards against the University of Washington and 140 yards against Arizona State University. The next year, he had 43 catches, becoming the first player in school history to have two seasons with more than 40 receptions, while also tallying a career-high 729 receiving yards.

As a senior, he was having his best season until breaking his clavicle in the first half of the fifth game against Arizona State University. He missed five contests and returned for the season finale against USC. He also played in the 1986 Rose Bowl 45-28 win against the University of Iowa, where he had 4 receptions and one touchdown.

Sherrard left as the school's all-time leading receiver in a season and a career with 124 receptions for 1,937 yards and 9 touchdowns.

Dallas Cowboys
In the 1986 NFL draft the Dallas Cowboys traded up from the 20th to the 18th position with the San Francisco 49ers, in exchange for a fifth round draft choice (#131-Patrick Miller), in order to select Sherrard, who became only the second wide receiver ever drafted by the franchise in the first round (Dennis Homan was the first one in 1968).

Sherrard started what seemed to be a very promising NFL career, becoming a starter in the thirteenth game against the Seattle Seahawks. He played in all 16 games (4 starts), registering 41 receptions for 744 yards, an 18.2-yard average (led the team) and 5 receiving touchdowns (led the team). At the time his totals ranked third for most receptions, third for most receiving yards, and second for most receiving touchdowns by a rookie in franchise history.

In 1987, he came into training camp as the Cowboys best wide receiver, but was lost for the year when he was tripped by a defender during a scrimmage on August 5, shattering two bones (the tibia and fibula) in his right leg. He also missed the 1988 season, when he re-fractured his right leg tibia and also the shin bone, while jogging on a Santa Monica beach as part of his rehab treatment in March.

San Francisco 49ers
The San Francisco 49ers signed Sherrard in Plan B free agency in 1989, but put him on the Physically Unable to Perform list for the entire regular season, allowing him plenty of time to heal for the playoffs, where he caught 3 passes for 40 yards and was a part of the Super Bowl XXIV winning team.

In 1990, he was off to a solid start, but broke his right fibula in a 20-17 win over the Cleveland Browns during the seventh game and was placed on the injured reserve list on October 29. He finished with 17 receptions for 264 yards and 2 touchdowns. The next season, he played in all 16 games, posting 24 receptions for 296 yards and 2 touchdowns.

In 1992, he appeared in all 16 games (8 starts), tallying 38 catches for 607 yards, including 6 catches for 159 yards against the Buffalo Bills.

New York Giants
On April 7, 1993, he signed as a free agent with the New York Giants. He was off to a great start with 24 receptions for 433 yards and 2 touchdowns through the first 6 games, but lost the rest of the season after suffering a partially dislocated left hip and a fractured hip socket against the Philadelphia Eagles. He also had injury complications when he was diagnosed as having a blood clot on the same hip.

His best professional season came in 1994, when he had career-highs in starts (14), receptions (53), receiving yards (825) and touchdowns (6). The next year, although he missed most of the preseason with a hamstring injury, he played in 13 games (13 starts), catching 44 receptions for 577 yards and 4 touchdowns. He missed the 12th and 13th games with a ruptured blood vessel above his right knee.

Denver Broncos
On May 5, 1996, he signed as a free agent with the Denver Broncos, where he only played one season as a reserve, before announcing his retirement on August 6, 1997. Sherrard persevered through multiple injuries and doubts about his future, to play 11 seasons in the NFL, recording 257 receptions for 3,931 yards and 22 touchdowns.

Personal life
Sherrard's mother Cherrie, ran the 80-yard hurdles in the 1964 Summer Olympics, where she was a teammate of Bob Hayes. She won a gold medal in the 1967 Pan American Games. His father Robert, played college basketball, semi-pro baseball and was a college professor at California State University. He is a cousin of Pro Football Hall of Fame cornerback Darrell Green.

After retirement, Sherrard worked as a fundraiser for Autism Speaks. He currently lives in Westlake Village, California with his daughter and two sons and is involved in television production.

In 2010, he was hired as the wide receivers coach at Oaks Christian School. In 2014, he was the offensive coordinator at Oaks Christian. In 2015, he was hired as the wide receivers coach at Newbury Park High School.

awardsandwinners.com [Request withdrawn]
From the site: I am trying to add: to support my addition at Estelle Evans for her winning NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture in 1969. I took this as a reference from that Award article, where Awards and Winners was used as source for many entries, presumably before the site was blocked. I'd like to use this URL because I can't find a good source anywhere else; NAACP's sites don't offer any such old news, nor do I find news articles or obituaries online. The best I've found is this at IMDb.

Possible problem: awardsandwinners.com cited its sources as Freebase (and WP), which was apparently shut down in 2016. Is this the reason for the block? I found this little exchange here, in case it helps.

Whitelisting the Requested link above would let me finish up Estelle Evans and move on. The problem would remain, however, for other articles of people listed at NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture, if editors try to add such NAACP awards. They'd need either similar exceptions for other URLs (.../1970, .../1971, etc.), or better sources elsewhere.

petitions.whitehouse.gov (the new homepage)
This is the homepage for We the People (petitioning system), but I can't make the url= link clickable. The whole site is blacklisted, to prevent every non-notable petition from being linked to. The whitelist re-allows petitions.whitehouse.gov/about, petitions.whitehouse.gov/responses, petitions.whitehouse.gov/response/*, and petitions.whitehouse.gov/homepage. (See? I added those links here.)

petitions.whitehouse.gov/homepage used to be the site's homepage, but now it is 404, so you can delete that entry ("\bpetitions\.whitehouse\.gov\/homepage\b") from the whitelist.

I hope you can add its new homepage, petitions.whitehouse.gov/, without adding the whole site. - A876 (talk • contribs)
 * Per /Common requests, we generally don't whitelist top domains as they a) are often part of the original abuse, and b) can be abused for those who have the will and knowledge to abuse them, which is often true with links to sites where people have POV to push. --Dirk Beetstra T  C 12:33, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I thought I quite clearly requested that the site's homepage be whitelisted, and not the entire domain. (I don't know why someone would conflate the two.)
 * For example, although adding new links to TinyURL.com/* is blocked, the TinyURL article has a link to https://www.tinyurl.com/, as it should. (In this case, the homepage is not whitelisted. If someone were to remove that old link, no one will be able to put it back.)
 * I'm just asking for the same thing, that the We the People (petitioning system) article add or be allowed to add a working link to https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/ (homepage only). (Whether that is accomplished by a one-time override of the blacklist, or by adding petitions.whitehouse.gov/ to the whitelist, I don't care.)
 * Also, petitions.whitehouse.gov/about is not the homepage. If it is reasonable or uncontroversial (a default "consensus") to list some other page instead of the site's homepage, then a comment is needed. This is a technical request; a work-around by substituting some convenient other-page that happens to already be whitelisted is not the expected solution. - A876 (talk) 20:13, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , and I think that I was quite clearly pointing to /Common requests, and explained that we do not do that. No, we link to the website to show what a website has to tell about themselves (see WP:EL) an about page fulfills that by definition. I need to see the tinyurl situation.  Dirk Beetstra T  C 02:22, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, a link is not an explanation. /Common requests doesn't say what you think it says. (btw, you don't actually say what you think it says.)

You said "we generally don't whitelist top domains". (I never suggested any such thing.) Now you have repeated the error saying "we do not do that" (as if you still don't understand).

/Common requests does not say that every page on every petition site and URL-shortening site is anathema (and in fact they are not – do "see the TinyURL situation" and others that link to the site, namely Bitly, Change.org, and (formerly) We the People (petitioning system)). It says "These sites are blocked for blanket reasons and it is rare that any page from them is whitelisted. " Okay, it is rare. Petition sites are blacklisted overall, for good reason ("we don't allow users to add links to Wikipedia to get people to visit and perhaps sign their petition"). Obviously linking the homepage (and possibly other pages) is okay, because it is normal and because doing so does not link to any specific petition (which meets the purpose of the ban).

Linking a website's homepage is the norm in a template in an article about that website. I'm sure "official website" was set to petitions.whitehouse.gov/homepage because that was the homepage. Now, the old homepage URL is a 404 and the homepage resides at https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/ (as it always should have). It follows that the whitelist entry should be changed to drop the former and add the latter. What could be simpler? I see no advice or consensus to list petitions.whitehouse.gov/about instead of the page that the site set as its homepage. I see no advice or consensus to list an about page instead of the homepage even if someone thinks it is "good enough" or even "better than" the homepage. - A876 (talk) 04:43, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , A876, as is explained there, whitelisting the homepage 'petitions.whitehouse.gov' is negating the blacklist, abusable in itself, and abusable through other ways. As with spam, people have a reason to abuse it - they are actively searching for support.  That is why we do not generally whitelist top domains.  That explanation is in /Common requests at MediaWiki_talk:Spam-whitelist/Common_requests.
 * Again, "Official links (if any) are provided to give the reader the opportunity to see what the subject says about itself" (my bolding). We link to a neutral landing page, an about-page does fulfill the function perfectly and avoid ALL possibilities of abuse.
 * Just to summarize:
 * the top domain of bitly.org is NOT whitelisted - www.bitly.com/?main and bitly.com/pages/about where already whitelisted for this purpose (in fact, www.bitly.com/?main is the link used, bitly.com is displayed).
 * change.org is NOT whitelisted - it should go through a whitelist discussion as the current link will be resulting in breakage on the page.
 * tinyurl.com WAS requested and denied (twice; see also diff), but someone decided to override that decision (that decision was denied and overridden before /common requests was written; see also MediaWiki_talk:Spam-whitelist/Archives/2007/09).
 * I hope this explains. Dirk Beetstra T C 06:28, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
 * My suggestion: which redirects to / and would serve the purpose. Jerod Lycett (talk) 19:13, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

I am still not sure as to why YourStory.com is blocked.

1. Shraddha Sharma, the founder of YourStory is a renowned journalist in India https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shradha_Sharma She has worked with CNBC and has won several awards and accolades and has been named as one of the top influencers on LinkedIn 2. YourStory is one of the top online publications for startups and entrepreneurs in India with high domain authority. 3. I don't know about the spam link incident that happened in 2015 but that was a long time back.

I am unable to publish my first article on Wiki because it has 2 references to Your Story which were actually interviews of me and my co-founder. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chaudhurisagar (talk • contribs) 09:57, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , can you expand on ‘me and my co-founder’? Are you related to the subject you are writing about?
 * Regarding the subject, you should be able to write an article without references to yourstory but using independent, reliable sources instead. Then it can be judged whether additional sourcing is needed. Dirk Beetstra T  C 12:11, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

The article quotes independent sources - leading publications in India - Economic Times (2 reports) - Bangalore Mirror - a Times of India publication (1 report) - Your Story (2 interviews) - Hindu Businessline (1 report)

The above websites are of high reputation in India and high domain authority. However, I am unable to publish the article as it has references to the YourStory website which seems to be blocked. So my request would be to unblock the pages which we want to link to. These are critical interviews. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chaudhurisagar (talk • contribs) 17:09, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , then publish it first without the yourstory references please. If the article has merit without the yourstory references it will stay and we will revisit this, if it doesn't this discussion is moot. Dirk Beetstra T  C 18:11, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

 * , someone can be a specialist in the field even if they are not notable for their own Wikipedia article. It is one of the guys behind memoQ.

 * , you requested it with the forward slash at the end: 'jealousmarkup.xyz/texts/neural-mt-looking-for-a-business-model/', so that is what gets whitelisted. Dirk Beetstra T C 08:42, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
 * , yes they can, but the chances of a self-published source by a non-notable individual being an RS are low, and normally I'd want some kind of evidence. Guy (help! - typo?) 09:46, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

 * No, the question is, are you sure this is going to be 'of general use'? I expressed concerns, user:JzG expressed concerns (already for the specific link ..).  It is your task to convince admins that this action is needed, I do not need to defend why I did not perform an action (well, I did: I have concerns / there are concerns - and, implicitly, the .xyz TLD was blacklisted because it was spammed massively and contains a lot of useless crap).

Siege of Katsurao

The 1553 siege of Katsurao was one of many sieges undertaken by the warlord Takeda Shingen in his long campaign to gain control of Japan's Shinano province, which was ruled by a hodgepodge of minor daimyō, notably the Suwa, Ogasawara, Murakami clan and Takato.

Shingen mounted his first invasion of Shinano in 1542 and steadily worked his way northwards, defeating the Suwa and Takato by 1547. His inexorable advance through the province alarmed the Uesugi clan, which controlled Echigo province to the north, and in 1547 Uesugi Norimasa sent an army into the province to confront Shingen, but this was swept aside at Odaihara. At this point the Murakami and Ogasawara finally entered the fray, and Murakami Yoshikiyo succeeded in defeating Shingen at Uedahara (1548), but Shingen regrouped and went back on the offensive. Identifying Yoshikiyo as the greater threat, he decided to concentrate his initial efforts on the weaker Ogasawara, and in 1550 he seized their principal castle at Fukashi, in modern Matsumoto, forcing their daimyo Ogasawara Nagatoki to flee and seek sanctuary with his ally Murakami Yoshikiyo at Katsurao.

Takeda Shingen then turned his attention to the Murakami, and after some difficulty succeeded in reducing their stronghold at Tosihi in 1551. After another two years of gruelling fighting the Takeda were finally ready to move against Katsurao itself, and Shingen entrusted the task to his brother Takeda Nobushige and son Takeda Yoshinobu. In the end Murakami resistance melted away, and uncle and nephew succeeded in reducing Katsurao after just seven days of fighting.

Aftermath
The fall of Katsurao broke the back of Murakami resistance to the Takeda, and most of the clan's followers subsequently went over to Shingen, while its leadership scrambled to escape Shinano Province. According to legend, in the aftermath of the siege Yoshikyo's wife found herself caught up in a stream of refugees attempting to get across the Chikuma River, and struggled to find a place on one of the ferries as the boatmen did not recognise her. Only after she had removed her hairpin and let her hair down did one of them realise that she was a noblewoman, whereupon he helped her get across the river to safety. As for Yoshikyo himself, he escaped into Echigo province, where he found refuge with the local lord Uesugi Kenshin. The fall of the Murakami convinced Kenshin that he would have to intervene in Shinano to prevent Shingen seizing control of the entire province, and his resulting invasions led to the famous Battles of Kawanakajima.

Charles Frederic Goss

Charles Frederic Goss (June 14, 1852 - May 7, 1930) was an American clergyman and author. His 1900 novel The Redemption of David Corson was a best selling book of that year. He also edited and partly authored a series of volumes on the history of Cincinnati.

Goss was born in Meridian, New York on June 14, 1852. He graduated from Hamilton College in New York in 1873 (he also later received a Doctor of Divinity degree from there in 1898), and from the Auburn Theological Seminary in 1876. He also married Rosa E. Houghton in 1876 and was ordained as a Presbyterian minister. After serving in churches in Texas, New York, Pennsylvania, and Chicago (at Moody Church), he became pastor of Avondale Presbyterian Church in Cincinnati in 1894. Popular columns that Goss wrote for the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune as The Optimist were published as a book of the same name in 1897, and his writing career grew from there.

In January 1906, a play based on Corson written by Charlotte Blair Parker debuted on Broadway, and ran for 16 performances. In 1914, the book was made into a silent film.

A 2012 episode of the HBO television drama Boardwalk Empire featured a character reading The Redemption of David Corson.

Samuel Jones Lee

Samuel Jones Lee (November 27, 1844 – April 1, 1895) was an American Civil War veteran of the Confederacy, politician and lawyer from South Carolina. He served as the first African-American Speaker of the South Carolina House of Representatives and was a committed member of the Republican Party.

Early life
Lee was born in Abbeville District, South Carolina, on the plantation belonging to Samuel J. McGowan. His mother was a free black woman and Lee asserted that his father was Samuel J. Lee of Charleston, although no documentation has been found to prove this - some historians have argued that McGowan was his father.

Civil War
When he was sixteen Lee followed McGowan and served with the Confederate Army during the Civil War, although there is no official record of his service; however, he was photographed armed and in the uniform of McGowan's regiment, the 14th South Carolina Infantry. Lee claimed that he was wounded twice during the course of the war: once at Second Manassas, where McGowan was also wounded, and then again at the Battle of Hanover.

Politics
After the Civil War, Lee became a farmer in Abbeville. In 1868 he entered politics, serving on the Edgefield County commission before being elected to the General Assembly that same year. He represented Edgefield County from 1868 to 1871 and then Aiken County from 1872 to 1874. In 1872 Lee became the Speaker of the South Carolina House of Representatives.

In 1874 Lee served as counsel to the legislative committee during the impeachment trial of state treasurer Francis Cardozo. Later that year Lee left the legislature and unsuccessfully ran for attorney general. He continued to serve as an Aiken County commissioner.

Law
Lee became a member of the South Carolina Bar in 1872 and used his connections to McGowan, himself a qualified lawyer, as well as his cooperation with the white establishment to establish a successful legal career. Lee was noted for his oratory skills and legal acumen, with an unprecedented twenty-seven appearances before the state supreme court.

Later life
Even after his retirement from politics he remained active in the Republican Party, regularly speaking at party events. In 1891 he was appointed a general in the state's "colored militia", a position in which he continued to serve until his death.

On 1 April 1895 Lee died in Charleston. At the news of his death the United States Circuit Court adjourned. He was buried with military honors at Friendly Union Cemetery, Charleston, in a funeral attended by six thousand people.

Legacy
Lee was the first African-American Speaker of the South Carolina House of Representatives. Despite this achievement, he is described by University of South Carolina academic Lewis W. Burke as having "left a trail of scandal in the wake of his political career." In 1875, while serving as an Aiken County commissioner, Lee was convicted of issuing fraudulent checks and in 1877 he was indicted on various counts of public corruption; however, he was granted immunity from prosecution in exchange for his testimony against Francis Cardozo. Once again, Lee was charged with corruption in 1879, although these charges were dropped.

In 1998, the South Carolina House of Representatives unveiled a portrait of Lee painted by South Carolina artist Larry Francis Lebby. The portrait now hangs in the gallery of the House chambers.

Resistor color codes

 * For example in this example, value of the resistor is ;

 * 1.Digit  = Yellow  = 4
 * 2.Digit  = Orange  = 3
 * Zeros    = Red     = 10^2
 * Tolerance
 * Gold   = ±5%
 * Silver = ±10%
 * No Band = ±20%
 * R = (43 * 10^2) ±10%  =  4300 ± 10% = 3870 ~ 4730 ohms

Death of Mark Chua

Mark Welson Chua (November 30, 1981 - March 18, 2001) was a Filipino student of the University of Santo Tomas whose death is widely believed to be linked to his exposé of alleged irregularities in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps unit of the university. His death became the catalyst for the passage of Republic Act 9163 or the "National Service Training Program Law", which removed completion of mandatory ROTC as a precondition for graduation for male college students in the Philippines.

Background
Chua took his elementary and high school education at Saint Jude Catholic School and his college education at the University of Santo Tomas. As a member of the ROTC unit's intelligence monitoring team, he had first-hand knowledge of corruption within the organization, which he and another student, Romulo Yumol, divulged to UST's official student publication The Varsitarian in January 2001. This resulted in the relief of then-commandant Major Demy T Tejares and his staff.

Death
Chua received death threats after his revelations. The new ROTC commandant advised him to undergo security training at Fort Bonifacio. On 15 March 2001, he was supposed to meet with an agent but he was never seen alive again. Three days later his decomposing body, wrapped in a carpet, was found floating in the Pasig River near the Jones Bridge. His hands and feet were tied and his face wrapped in cloth and packing tape. The autopsy report showed that sludge was in his lungs, indicating that he was alive when he was thrown into the river. In order to mislead investigators, his abductors had pretended to demand ransom from the Chua family.

On 31 March 2004, Arnulfo Aparri, Jr., one of the four suspects in the killing of Chua, was sentenced to death by lethal injection, and was ordered to pay Php 50,000.00 to the victim's family as indemnity. His sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment without parole after the death penalty was abolished in 2006. Another of the accused, Eduardo Tabrilla, pleaded guilty to culpable homicide and was sentenced to 6-14 years of imprisonment in 2006. The whereabouts of the two other suspects, Paul Joseph Tan and Michael Von Rainard Manangbao remain uncertain.

Edmond Deman

Edmond Deman (1857–1918) was a publisher, antiquarian bookseller and prints dealer in fin-de-siècle Brussels.

Life
Deman was born in Brussels on 26 March 1857. He studied at the Catholic University of Leuven, where he became friends with Émile Verhaeren and edited a student newspaper together with members of the circle that went on to found La Jeune Belgique. In 1880 he married Constance Horwath and together they set up as antiquarian bookdealers in Brussels.

From 1888 onwards, Deman used a logo designed for him by Fernand Khnopff in his catalogues. He also published a relatively small number of bibliophile editions, mainly of leading poets with illustrations by leading artists, particularly Émile Verhaeren and Théo van Rysselberghe.

During the First World War he took refuge in his holiday home at Le Lavandou. He died there on 19 February 1918.

Talk:Aquaculture/Mariculture

Is Aquaculture Feasible in Space Desserts?
There is little hydrogen or water on the moon although some may be available at the never illuminated bases of polar crater walls or mountains or ravine (rilles). It may be a while before water is plentiful in cislunar space from asteroids or hauled up from Earth. It may never be cheap. My question is: Would aquaculture be feasible in zero-g by saturating the humidity of the fish tanks to 100% relative humidity? In other words, are there any edible, palatible fish that would thrive in a zero g high humidity holding tank of misty air? Thanks for any assistance or links to applicable information left here. Opinions or detailed reasoning or theories welcome! Mirwin 03:27, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * That is an interesting question... Let's brainstorm how we could impliment such an experiment. It seems that sending up satelites or modules for the ISS would be ways of feasibly testing this hypothesis. Perhaps there is literature of the effects of 0-g environments on fish, amphibians or other animals that could provide us with answers. I came to this talk page to start a discussion... --Remi0o 00:28, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Feasible Research
What sort of research could be done with Wikiversity concerning aquaculture? We could do literature reviews. We could find a project or research question in which implementing a scientific study would require realistic amounts of capital. What sort of questions should we address and what sort of research would be feasible considering our funding. I suppose grants may be an option. What do you all think? --Remi0o 00:26, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Special Committee on Sustainable Aquaculture
I don't know whether it would be useful to anyone or not... but I may be able to arrange contact with some members of a current legislative committee here in BC -- The Special Committee on Sustainable Aquaculture http://www.leg.bc.ca/cmt/38thparl/session-2/aquaculture/index.htm

Small Scale Aquaculture
Is aquaculture feasible on a small scale (personal aquaculture, akin to gardening)? What sorts of aquaculture would work best this way? The Jade Knight (d'viser) 21:25, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

In 2011 I visited a restaurant in Costa Rica that had a Tilapia tank from which they took fish for the menu. The tank was about 4m diameter, and had a corrugated metal cover. I do not know the specifics of their operation, but it was a small (one-family) operation.

The Kepez Site
The main building (Kepez Campus) is located at main street in Kepez Square. It was opened in 2007 by the permission of the Turkish National Health Ministry. The hospital underwent an expansion in the 2011 and work was completed with additional bed spaces in early 2012.

The ÇOMÜ Hospital is a primary multi-care facility (open 24 hours) in its area, an Academic community hospital.

Nedime Hanım Site
The Nedime Hanım Site is located at Nedime Hanım Square, Old City.

The Emergency Service (Department)
The hospital's Emergency Service operates 24-hours a day, 365 days a year. It is based at Kepez Site. The Emergency Service serves the local population of Çanakkale province as well as adjoining parts of Balıkesir and surrounding area.

Talk:Fluid Mechanics

Book structure and level
Engineering fluid mechanics is a subject requiring several semesters of university study to properly understand - is it practical to cover this topic in this context? What level of complexity should this book be? Is it possible to split it into two books, one simple and one advanced? I think it should start where a introductory fluid mechanic course does.

Chapter 1: key concepts, Density, Viscosity, ect Chapter 2: Statics, Hydrostatics, ect Chapter 3: Fluid Dynamics, Bernouli, ect Just to start off... (unknown contributor)

- first, what do you mean by mechanics? Math or Physics? a Fluid behavior book for everyone? or a book with strongMath-basis for engineers and scientists? if the latter, I have worked eagerly 2 years to find an excellent structure for a fluid mechanics book. here is what I reached.

Theory: Applied Fluid-Tech
 * Fluid statics
 * Pressure - pascal's law, equilibrium law
 * Force - Horizontal, Vertical *
 * Fluid Kinematics
 * Scalar approach - Flow and potential functions
 * Vector approach - Closed Subject's R, V & A fields (Eulerian), Open Subject's V & A Fields (Lagrangian)
 * Tensor approach - Stress & strain tensors
 * Flow visualization lines - streamline & streamtube, pathline, streakline, timeline
 * Flow visualization techniques - Reflective techs, Surface techs
 * Fluid kinetics
 * Integral formulation - Reynold's conservation of 1.mass, 2.Force, 3.Moment, 4.Energy and 5.entropy increase
 * differential formulation - conservation of 1.mass (continuity), 2.Force (naiver-stokes), 4.Energy(Bernoulli)
 * Internal-incompressible flow *
 * Internal-compressible flow
 * Free surface flow *
 * External flow
 * in turbo-machines
 * in power/refrigeration cycles

the sections marked with * seems to talk about liquid only. but it's not true. everything is the same for vapors & gases. --Saeed.Veradi (talk) 20:15, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Some questions regarding pressure:
 * What are the topics under Force (under Fluid Statics)? Aint it lowkey covered within pressure already?
 * Also, though pressure comes under fluid statics, but where/how to cover the pressure of fluid in rotating/accelerating container?? Does that come under fluid statics too or does it shift to dynamics? Yashpalgoyal1304 (discuss • contribs) 09:58, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

- anyway, you face two obstacles:
 * 1) Yunus Cengel has written Fluid Mechanics Fundamentals and Applications for engineers. it has knocked out his 5 strong rivals, together with the older books. yes, I've red all these books. no, not every word.
 * 2) Munson
 * 3) Fox
 * 4) Streeter
 * 5) Shames
 * 6) White
 * 7) even if you write for general audience, why do you write fluid mechanics? It's a highly visual subject for which we can's provide a fraction of sufficient pictures.

Chapter 2: Vector Calculus
In this section we have some equation such as: $$Insert formula here$$A+B=c

Headline text
This formula says that the addsition of vector A & B is vector C.

Conservation of Mass
Should the derrivation of these laws be done in both Lagrangian and Eulerian reference frames? ??That comes from Mr.Reynolds theory of transport... which unites Lagran. and Eules stuff into one pakaged deal no ??? -Mechstudent Either way, it yeilds:

$$ \frac{\partial\rho}{\partial t} + \nabla\cdot \left(   \rho \mathbf{V}  \right) = 0 $$ In words we may suggest to use:

Rate of mass accumulation = Rate of mass in - Rate of mass out

new idea
There is an open content fluid mechanics textbook by Dr. Bar-Meir at www.potto.org. It seem that someone should take that book and insert it to here.

chapter order
Fluid Mechanics/Analysis Methods should come before Fluid_Mechanics/Fluid_Statics - as that would make analysis methods' chapter to be like an overview of coming chapters - in which each chapter is generally a more in depth view of an analysis method told there. The chapters (of statics only i guess) will need slight modifications to fit this flow. I can put some drafts if this sounds agreeable.
