For the Autonomies

For the Autonomies (Per le Autonomie, Aut) is a heterogeneous, mostly centrist, centre-left and regionalist, parliamentary group which has been active, with slightly different names and compositions, in the Italian Senate since 2001.

History
The group was formed in May 2001 by six senators representing the northern special-statute autonomous regions of Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol (composed of two autonomous provinces, Trentino and South Tyrol) and Aosta Valley, two senators of European Democracy (DE) and senators for life Giulio Andreotti (a long-time Christian Democrat, who was then a member of DE too) and Gianni Agnelli. Instrumental in the formation of the group were Helga Thaler Ausserhofer, who served also as its first president, and Andreotti: the two formed a friendship and a strong political bond, despite their different geographical and political backgrounds.

The group has since been home for the regionalist parties usually affiliated with the centre-left Olive Tree (Ulivo) coalition and, later, the Democratic Party (PD), including the South Tyrolean People's Party (SVP), the Trentino Tyrolean Autonomist Party (PATT), the Union for Trentino (UpT), the Valdostan Union (UV) and Valdostan Renewal (RV), and most senators for life, including Andreotti (2001–2006, 2008–2013), Agnelli (2001–2003), Francesco Cossiga (2003–2006, 2008–2010), Emilio Colombo (2008–2013), Carlo Rubbia (2013–2018), Elena Cattaneo (2013–present), Giorgio Napolitano (2015–2023), Carlo Azeglio Ciampi (2015–2016), Renzo Piano (2015–2018) and Carlo Rubbia (2022–present).

In 2006–2008 the group survived thanks to the participation of six senators of the would-be PD. In 2008–2013 it welcomed the Union of the Centre (UdC), the Associative Movement Italians Abroad (MAIE) and some centre-right independent or minor-party senators; during that parliamentary term the group saw also the return of Andreotti and Cossiga. In 2013–2018 the group notably welcomed the senators of the Italian Socialist Party (PSI) and, since 2014, those of Solidary Democracy (DeS). Most recently, from 2018 to 2022, the group featured also Pier Ferdinando Casini (Centrists for Europe–CP), who has continuously served in Parliament since 1983.

A Branded Soul

A Branded Soul is a lost 1917 American silent drama film directed by Bertram Bracken and starring Gladys Brockwell. It was produced and distributed by the Fox Film Corporation.

Plot
In an opening scene set in ancient Rome, the pagan Valerain makes an attempt to abduct St. Cecilia for his extravagant birthday feast, but her spiritual grace prevents him, leading him to kneel before her.

Conchita Cordova, a singer in the cathedral choir of San Miguelito, has captured the interest of wealthy man John Rannie, whose oil business have displaced local peasants.

Rannie discovers that Conchita's fiancé, Juan Mendoza, has been recruited by Adolf Wylie, a German spy. Conchita finds herself pressured by Rannie, must either submit to his advances or risk exposing her fiancé as a traitor. Despite her reluctance, she chose to save Juan, and in a poignant gesture, she removes her cross, moving Rannie, who then ask for her forgiveness.

Meanwhile, the villagers instigated by Wylie, retaliate by setting fire to Rannie's fields. Misinterpreting Conchita's actions, Juan, thinking she harbors feelings for Rannie, throws her cross into the fire as a symbol of shame, which made her rebuke him. Conchita intervenes to protect Rannie from the villagers' wrath. They went to a church where he kneels beside her in the church. Coincidentally, in Rome, Valerain also kneels before St. Cecilia.

Trashy Lingerie

Trashy Lingerie is a custom-made lingerie apparel store based in Los Angeles known for its unique designs and its association with Hollywood celebrities. It is well-known for requiring an annual $2 USD membership fee to shop in the store.

History
Trashy Lingerie was founded in 1973 by a local shoe designer, Mitch Shrier, and his wife, Tracy. The store was named after a slingback shoe called the "Trashy", and although the company initially specialized in footwear, by the late 1970s, there was a demand from clientele to provide accompanying hosiery. The Shriers entered the lingerie business by hand-dying stockings in bright colors and by 1979, the store exclusively specialized in selling lingerie. The company went on to develop a full line of lingerie, offering of over 8,000 products consisting of lingerie, costumes, and bathing suits.

Trashy Lingerie went online in 1998. Trashy Lingerie and its sister companies, Trashy.com and Trashy Girls are owned and operated by Mitch Shrier, Randy Shrier, and Mary Loomis-Shrier respectively.

Media
The company's designs can be seen in over 500 films, television shows, commercials, concert tours, music videos and magazine features.

Madonna wore a custom-made, fitted black bustier with golden tassels from Trashy Lingerie while performing "Open Your Heart" during her Who's That Girl world tour in 1987. The bustier was sold at auction for $72,000 in 2011.

The exterior of the store was featured in The Go-Go's music video for "Our Lips Are Sealed". Gene Simmons selected it as the shooting location for his interviews in the documentary film The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years. The glamour and erotic photographer Ken Marcus featured Trashy Lingerie's designs in many of his centerfold shoots for Playboy and Penthouse magazines. The shop has also been featured several times in the hit show The Girls Next Door where Hugh Hefner's then girlfriends bought their costumes for numerous Playboy Mansion parties.

Media personality and retired decathlete Caitlyn Jenner wore a Trashy Lingerie corset on the June 2016 issue of Vanity Fair shot by Annie Liebowitz. This was her first media appearance after her gender transition.

Dragon House (Ho Chi Minh City)

Dragon House (Vietnamese: Bến Nhà Rồng) or Ho Chi Minh Museum is the original commercial port of Saigon. It is located on the Saigon River. Construction began in 1862 and more than a year later, in 1863, the house was completed. It is located at the junction of the Saigon River in District 4.

On 5 June 1911, Ho Chi Minh (at the time named Nguyen Tat Thanh) departed from the Dragon House on the French ship Amiral de Latouche-Tréville for a 30-year journey around the world. Therefore, in 1979, the old headquarters building of the commercial port has been rebuilt into a memorial park in Ho Chi Minh City.

During the Vietnam War the building was used by the United States Military Sea Transportation Service.

I Looked Up

I Looked Up (Elektra EKS 2469 002 / U.S. LP: EKS-74061) is the sixth album by the Incredible String Band. Recorded at a time when the band was busy rehearsing for their ambitious upcoming stage show, U, the album has been described by band member Robin Williamson as a "quickie" album.

Background
Recording of the album came just 5 months after Changing Horses. Like its predecessor, the album included six tracks with two compositions exceeding 10 minutes. As usual with the band, there are several instruments utilised in unique arrangements and overdubbing in the development of the album.

A rewriting of "Black Jack Davey", a Scottish traditional folk song, begins the album, sung by Heron in an uptempo style. The album also contains Robin Williamson's most experimental, "Pictures in a Mirror". The epic, a mixture of folk and drama, tells the story of Lord Randell. Williamson's vocals are prominent on this track for his range and ability to distort his voice. A highlight of the album, Mike Heron's composition "This Moment," is regarded as one of Heron's best pieces.

Dave Mattacks, a drummer of Fairport Convention, is featured on "The Letter", a track which is more reflective of Fairport's electric folk style.

Recording sessions also produced an unreleased track titled "Queen Juanita and Her Fisherman Lover" that is over 16 minutes in length. It would later appear on the compilation Incredible String Band: Tricks of The Senses. Three tracks from the album, "When You Find Out Who You Are ", "The Letter", and "This Moment", were performed at the Woodstock Festival, which constituted half of their set that day.

Many consider I Looked Up an improvement to Changing Horses however the album's chart success was limited and disappointing in the US as it only topped at No. 196.

Track listing
"Black Jack Davy" (then called "Black Jack David") would later be recorded again by the Incredible String Band on their album Earthspan on Island Records in 1972.

Personnel

 * Robin Williamson – vocals, guitar, violin, flute, gimbri, percussion
 * Mike Heron – vocals, guitar, piano, harpsichord, organ
 * Licorice McKechnie – vocals, bass guitar, dulcimer, drums
 * Rose Simpson – vocals, bass guitar, violin
 * Dave Mattacks – drums

 * 2) Click on Run
 * 3) Type cmd and hit enter (use command in Win98)
 * 4) Type ipconfig and hit enter

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection Network Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix. : IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : <IP_ADDRESS> <-your IP address Subnet Mask. . . . . . . . . . . : <IP_ADDRESS> Default Gateway. . . . . . . . . : <IP_ADDRESS>    <-your system Gateway

If you are on broadband, or use a network modem or your internet connection is not through your current PC, that IP is a local ip. Meaning, that is the IP my router gave me, not the IP the world sees. This means that the address is only specific to me in my local network.

If you use dialup with a modem on your current computer, that will be your external IP.

Windows XP
You can double click on the two computers on the task bar at the lower right hand corner also known as your Local Area Connection. Once that opens you can see the status of your local area connection as well as the activity of it. The status referring to whether or not it's connected, how long it has been connected, and the speed of the connection. The activity referring to the number of packets sent and received. Then you click the Support tab. The support tab shows you your IP address, the address type, subnet mask and default gateway if you have one. You can also click details. Details shows you your Physical (MAC) address, IP address, the subnet mask address, the address for your DHCP server, your DNS server as well as when you obtained the lease for your IP address and when it expires.

Linux
In Linux the are two commands that are used to find IP addresses of the machines interfaces. These are the new ip command that is used for almost all configuration of networks and the old obsoleted ifconfig command. Most installations of Linux has both of them installed, but some only have the new command.

where the <IP_ADDRESS> is your machines IPv4 address in your LAN. [user@wikibooks]$ ip add show dev eth0 2: eth0:  mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000 link/ether 00:80:C8:F8:4A:51 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet <IP_ADDRESS> Bcast:<IP_ADDRESS> scope global eth0 inet6 fe80::0280:c8ff:fef8:4a51/64 scope link Not valid: no accessible. You can also use curl and the ipinfo.io API: not valid to accesss
 * 1) Open a Terminal/Console
 * 2) Type ip address show or ifconfig
 * 3) Look for inet <IP_ADDRESS>/24 resp. ''inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>

where <IP_ADDRESS> s your global IPv4 address. If you are behind a NAT:et router, this isn't the same as your machines private IPv4 address in your LAN.

Finding your global IP address
To find your global IP which is what the outside world sees, you may use a website such as INet Clue or IP Finding or IP Chicken.

On this page
Click on edit. Anywhere in the edit box type four tildes: ~ Click Show preview (please, not Save page!). Lo and behold, in the preview your ~ has become your external IP address!

In Firefox
Simply download the extension "Live IP Address" to keep track of your current IP address. Useful if you are used to using automatic proxies.

In any browser on any operating system
Many websites can give you your IP address. These include, but are nowhere near limited to:

Invisible rail

 * This is the archived discussion of the TFAR nomination for the article below. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests). Please do not modify this page.

The result was: scheduled for Today's featured article/April 1, 2015 by — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:31, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

The invisible rail (Habroptila wallacii) is a large flightless rail that is endemic to the island of Halmahera in North Maluku, Indonesia, where it inhabits impenetrable sago swamps adjacent to forests. Its plumage is predominantly dark slate-grey, and the bare skin around its eyes, the long, thick bill and the legs are all bright red. Its call is a low drumming sound which is accompanied by wing-beating. Information on the behaviour of this shy bird, usually shielded by its dense habitat, is limited. Recorded dietary items include sago shoots and insects, and it also swallows small stones to help break up its food. It is apparently monogamous, but little else is known of its courtship behaviour. The only known nest was a shallow bowl in the top of a rotting tree stump that was lined with wood chips and dry leaves. The two young chicks were entirely covered in black down typical of precocial newly hatched rails. The estimated population of 3,500–15,000 birds has a restricted range and is classified as Vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).

 * Better yet, use the image on the Behaviour section. With a caption highlighting the bird is supposedly seen feeding on said tree. (a more obtuse caption akin to George Washington or Cock Lane Ghost Fanny scratching would also help the comedy) igordebraga ≠ 14:43, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Looks good. I made minor tweaks. - Dank (push to talk) 16:30, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment aliases. The instructions, against aliases, are probably for people. This bird may be known by some readers only (!) as "Wallace's rail" or "drummer rail", - actually the German name is Trommelralle (drummer rail), - I think it would be helpful to show the other names, - unless we want to stay on the mysterious trip ;)
 * Except you lose the joke, such as it is, about the invisible nature of the bird if you give lots of other names by which it is known. Actually I'd like to see an attempt to write this blurb in an April Fool style, with an alternative image as suggested.  At the moment it doesn't particularly strike me as amusing enough for 1st April. BencherliteTalk 17:11, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I've skimmed the article, and I'm not sure how this can be rewritten as an April Fool's TFA. - Dank (push to talk) 22:12, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I think you can try too hard with these "April fool" jokes, and then they become rather laboured and cease to be funny. Or they amuse a small clique and are incomprehensible  to everyone else. Also, I would be dead against a blurb that was primarily written "to be funny", rather than as a synopsis of the article. But I won't be making the choice for April 1st. Brianboulton (talk) 23:20, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
 * That sounds right to me. After the April 1st article is selected, let me know if you think it's labored. - Dank (push to talk) 23:31, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
 * If we do do this for April Fools, no image, or the mangrove image. Definitely. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:39, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

 Invisible rails are large rails that are found on the island of Halmahera in North Maluku, Indonesia. Located among impenetrable sago swamps adjacent to forests, these rails make a low drumming sound which is accompanied by beating.
 * As for the tongue-in-cheek writing... (work in progress)
 * But yes, very difficult to rewrite. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:42, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

 * If that's done in jest, the lines about the plumage etc. might also have to go. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:56, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

 * If you want spice, but still real, use the quote by the birder: "I am solidly confident no European has ever seen this rail alive, for that requires such a degree of toughening and such demands on oneself as I cannot so easily attribute to others. Habroptila is shielded by the awful thorns of the sago swamps... In this thorn wilderness, I walked barefoot and half-naked for weeks." - DYK that the bird attracted more than 10k views on DYK? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 00:09, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

An attempt to add more:  Invisible rails are large rails that are found on the island of Halmahera in North Maluku, Indonesia. Located among impenetrable sago swamps adjacent to forests, these rails make a low drumming sound which is accompanied by beating. The difficulty of seeing the rail means that information on its behaviour is limited. There are few confirmed sightings, to the point famed scientist Gerd Heinrich stated observing the rail required him to "walk barefoot and half-naked for weeks." Nevertheless, locals claim to have found the rail in swamps and grasslands. igordebraga ≠ 14:30, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Support running as a straight ornithology article, with no attempt to be funny; Oppose any version played for laughs where the blurb is intentionally misleading. This make-the-blurb-misleading "tradition" is a legacy of Raul and should have been jettisoned a decade ago; it makes a mockery of genuinely important topics, it's incomprehensible to those in parts of the world which don't observe April Fools (that the stream of complaints it generate every year are always scrubbed from Talk:Main page and the complainants sneered at for not getting the joke, doesn't mean they're not genuine complaints), and it means anything that has genuine date significance for April 1 gets bumped to make way for cack-handed jokes. Yes, DYK and OTD still do this (although ITN doesn't), but "the standards of DYK" is not something that TFA should set as its ambition. – iridescent  21:36, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Most of us seem to be agreed that we don't want to strain to give a spin to the April 1 article. It would help if someone would just write a Featured Article intended as suitable for April 1. - Dank (push to talk) 19:54, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Look above, this was it, the link is not invisible ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:07, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * @Dank At a quick skim you have Deadalive, Convention of 1833 and German battleship Tirpitz lined up, all existing FAs with April 1 as their "natural" run date, and all kept off the MP by this annual ritual by Wikipedia's pack of self-appointed resident comedians. – iridescent  20:20, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * (edit conflict with Iridescent) Gerda, there's no point in repeatedly referring to a conversation on my talk page last April as if it's holy writ or is somehow binding on any of the TFA co-ordinators, past or present. In any case, Gerda, you're missing Dank's point. Basically there are three main types of TFA on 1st April - see WP:TFAO for the full list and links (I knew it would come in useful).
 * The first is the straight subject done in a "send-up" way (e.g. (? (film), George Washington (inventor), Ima Hogg).
 * The next is the unusual subject played straight (e.g. Disco Demolition Night, Museum of Bad Art, Wife selling (English custom)).
 * The third is the straight subject done straight, as thought it was any other day of the year; this was done in 2004 and 2005 (Byzantine Empire, Nintendo Entertainment System), before the April Fool's "tradition" started.
 * The first option is exceptionally hard to do well - "?" only worked in 2013 because we reduced the blurb to one character, and that was the USP. Most of the other suggestions for 1st April in my time as TFA coordinator were decidedly unfunny (see WP:TFANO for the handy links to previous discussions). The trouble with Invisible rail is that it falls between two stools - it's not unusual enough to be in category 2, and it doesn't look as though a blurb can be written in a sufficiently amusing manner to fall into category 1. Besides which, category 1 blurbs (as  notes) attract more flak.
 * I notice that Girl Pat (1935 trawler) (a) is a brand-new promotion; (b) has date relevance to 1st April (start of voyage) and (c) has an unusual enough subject matter that it works as category 2 (read it for yourself and you'll see)., what do you think about that for 1st April? BencherliteTalk 20:44, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Two misunderstandings, the second being that 1 April is Crisco's turn. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:00, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * And what was my first alleged misunderstanding? As for the second alleged misunderstanding, I am well aware that Crisco is due to be scheduling 1st April (not least from comments made earlier on this page) but as Girl Pat is an article primarily written by Brian, it's only courteous to ask him what he thinks about my suggestion. BencherliteTalk 21:14, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * First: I referred to a discussion that Dank seemed not to have seen, not as "promise", "holy wit", "binding", but simply showing that the article was written with the intention. I translated it to German where it appeared in a DYK-like section, not on 1 April because the German name is not funny. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:51, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * (conflicted) It may be Crisco's "turn", but that doesn't mean that other co-ordinators aren't able to comment or advise. "Turns" are an informal convenience arranged between the co-ordinators – I don't become invisible and mute at midnight on 31 March. As to Bencherlite's suggestion, the newly-promoted Girl Pat would be a better subject for next year – the 80th anniversary of the whimsical voyage. I wouldn't give it priority this year over other FAs which have genuine date relevance to 1 April. But anything, I believe, would be better than a contrived attempt to to be "amusing".  I agree strongly with Iridescent's view expressed above. Frankly I am amazed that so many presumably busy and productive editors can be bothered to spend so much on this trivial topic. Brianboulton (talk) 21:28, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * As Brian said, we are in this together. It may be my "turn", but if consensus is against having ambiguously or misleadingly written TFA text, then I am bound to follow said consensus, without any regards to my personal opinion. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:34, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment: While I support the idea of jokey April 1 TFAs (Wikipedia could use a bit of shirt-unbuttoning cred), I'm not sure about the use of misleading wording to hype up an otherwise ordinary subject. On the other hand, browsing this list, I'm not sure I can find any better alternatives that aren't victim to the same phenomenon (e.g. Marvel Science Stories - it's funny to imagine radioactive spiders, Spider-Man's Venom-ization, Captain America's time travel, or Iron Man's dubious command of physics passed off as "science" until you realize it's not the same Marvel) - maybe Super Columbine Massacre RPG! if a little darkness is tolerated. Tezero (talk) 23:52, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * In-jokes among the science fiction fraternity aren't funny to anyone else. I'm reminded of the   humour dispensed by my classics master at school: heavy-handed, incomprehensible, embarrassing. How we laughed. Let us please play this one straight. The mention of Columbine in this context is tasteless – frankly, disgusting. Brianboulton (talk) 13:47, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, gee, I don't think the idea of an "invisible bird" is that funny, either, but I acquiesced because apparently others do. We really have two issues at hand here, and one needs to be resolved first: whether humorous article choices are appropriate for April 1 at all before whether this one is sufficient. Tezero (talk) 14:23, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * There should be no objection to running the rail article, provided the blurb is not doctored or tweaked to spice it up for the 1 April market. As far as I can see, the blurb at the top of this thread does the job. Brianboulton (talk) 15:01, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

Are contributors aware of April_Fool%27s_Main_Page/Featured_Article?? --Dweller (talk) 09:54, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I wasn't. Articles like frog cake (which is apparently only GA) are more in line with what would be acceptable; while the Pixies are one of my favorite alternative rock bands, the blurb proposed for them (and others in its style) could be in violation of the apparent consensus against misleading blurbs. Tezero (talk) 21:22, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

Support - interesting reading. Looking forward seeing it at TFA.--BabbaQ (talk) 17:39, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

Advanced Classical Mechanics/Small Oscillations and Perturbed Motion

In Linear Motion, we argued that all sufficiently small oscillations are harmonic. In this section we will exploit this result in several ways to understand

 * 1) The motion of systems with many degrees of freedom near equilibrium,
 * 2) The motion of systems perturbed from known solutions, and
 * 3) The motion of systems with Lagrangians perturbed from systems with known solutions.

All three of these points are applications of perturbation theory, and they all start with the harmonic oscillator.

Normal Modes
The modes of oscillation of systems near equilibrium are called the normal modes of the system. Understanding the frequencies of the normal modes of the system is crucial to design a system that can move (even if it isn't meant to). Let's look at a system with many degrees of freedom; we have

$$ L = \frac{1}{2} \sum_{i,j} T_{ij} \dot q_i \dot q_j - V \left (q_1, \ldots q_n \right ). $$

Let $$q_{0,i}$$ be an equilibrium position and expand about this point $$ q_i = q_{0,i} + \eta_i $$ so $$\dot q_i = \dot \eta _i$$.

We can expand the potential energy to give

$$ V \left (q_1, \ldots q_n \right ) = V \left (q_{0,1}, \ldots q_{0,n} \right ) + \sum_{i} \left ( \frac{\partial V}{\partial q_i} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i + \frac{1}{2} \sum_{i,j} \left ( \frac{\partial^2 V}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i\eta_j + \cdots. $$

The first term is a constant with respect to $$\eta_i$$ and constant terms do not affect the motion. The second term is zero, because $$q_{0,i}$$ is a point of equilibrium. If we drop all terms higher than the third term shown, we are left with

$$ L = \frac{1}{2} \sum_{i,j} \left ( T_{ij} \dot \eta_i \dot \eta_j - V_{ij} \eta_i \eta_j \right ) $$

where

$$ T_{ij} = T_{ij} \left ( q_{0,1}, \ldots q_{0,n} \right ) $$ and $$ V_{ij} = \left ( \frac{\partial^2 V}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}}, $$

yielding the equations of motion

$$ \sum_{j} \left ( T_{ij} \ddot \eta_j - V_{ij} \eta_j \right ) = 0 $$

This is a linear differential equation with constant coefficients. We can try the solution

$$ \eta_i = C a_i e^{-i \omega t} $$

so we have

$$ \sum_{j} \left ( V_{ij} a_j - \omega^2 T_{ij} a_j \right ) = 0. $$

This is a matrix equation such that

$$ \vec \vec A \cdot \vec a = 0 $$ with

$$ \vec a = \left [ \begin{matrix} a_1 \\ a_2 \\ \vdots \\ a_j \end{matrix} \right ] $$

and

$$ \vec \vec A = \left [ \begin{matrix} V_{11} - \omega^2 T_{11} & V_{12} - \omega^2 T_{12} & \cdots \\ V_{21} - \omega^2 T_{21} & V_{22} - \omega^2 T_{22} & \cdots \\ \vdots & & \end{matrix} \right ] $$

This equation only has a solution is $$\det \vec \vec A=0$$. This gives a $$n$$th-degree polynomial to solve for $$\omega^2$$. We will get $$n$$ solutions for $$\omega^2$$ that we can substitute into the matrix equation and solve for $$a_j$$.

Is this guaranteed to work? Yes, it turns out. Look at the equation in terms of matrices we have

$$ \vec \vec V \vec a = \omega^2 \vec \vec T \vec a. $$

The matrix $$\vec \vec V$$ is symmetric and real. The matrix $$\vec \vec T$$ should be positive definite (because a negative kinetic energy doesn't make sense). Technical issue: If $$\vec \vec T$$ has a null space, the degrees of freedom corresponding to the null space are massless and cannot be excited unless they are in the null space of $$\vec \vec V$$. Either way, you can drop the null space from both sides of the equation.

Assuming that $$\vec \vec T$$ is invertable we have

$$ \left ( \vec\vec T \right ) ^{-1} \vec \vec V \vec a = \omega^2 \vec a $$

and we have a standard eigenvalue equation. In most examples, the kinetic energy matrix will be diagonal, so it is straightforward to construct the quotient matrix and diagonize it.

Perturbations about Steady Motion
Let's say I have some solution to the equations of motion and I would like to look at small deviations from the solution. Let's $$ q_{0,i}(t) $$ satisfy

$$ \frac{d}{dt} \frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot q_i} - \frac{\partial L}{\partial q_i} = 0, $$

and let's look at

$$ q_i(t) = q_{0,i}(t) + \eta_i(t) $$

where $$\eta_i$$ is small. Let's expand the entire Lagrangian to find the equations of motion for the deviations $$\eta_i$$. We have

$$ L \left (q_1, \ldots q_n \right ) = L \left (q_{0,1}, \ldots q_{0,n} ; \dot q_{0,1}, \ldots \dot q_{0,n} \right ) + \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial L}{\partial q_i} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot q_i} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot \eta_i \right ] + $$

$$ \frac{1}{2} \sum_{i,j} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i\eta_j + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial \dot q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot\eta_i \dot \eta_j + 2 \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i \dot \eta_j \right ] + \cdots. $$

Now let's apply Lagrange's equations for the deviations

$$ \frac{d}{dt} \frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot \eta_i} - \frac{\partial L}{\partial \eta_i} = 0 $$

to give

$$ \frac{d}{dt} \left \{ \left ( \frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} + \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial \dot q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot\eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i \right ] \right \} $$

$$ - \left ( \frac{\partial L}{\partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} - \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot \eta_i \right ] = 0 $$

The two terms without $$\eta$$ actually cancel each other out, leaving the following equations of motion.

$$ \frac{d}{dt} \left \{ \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial \dot q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot\eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i \right ] \right \} $$

$$ - \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot \eta_i \right ] = 0. $$

In steady motion, the partial derivatives are taken to be constant in time yielding the even simpler result

$$ \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial \dot q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \ddot\eta_i - \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i \right ] = 0. $$

Again we have a linear differential equation with constant coefficients, and all of the results from the previous section carry over.

Perturbed Lagrangians
What about finding solutions to Lagrangians that are almost like ones that we have already solved? Let's say we have

$$ L = L_0 + L_1 $$

where $$L_1$$ is considered to be small compared to $$L_0$$ Let's say I have some solution to the equations of motion for $$L_0$$ and I would like to look at small deviations from the solution induced by the change in the Lagrangian. Let's say $$ q_{0,i}(t) $$ satisfy

$$ \frac{d}{dt} \frac{\partial L_0}{\partial \dot q_i} - \frac{\partial L_0}{\partial q_i} = 0, $$

and let's look at

$$ q_i(t) = q_{0,i}(t) + \eta_i(t) $$

where $$\eta_i$$ is small. Let's expand the entire Lagrangian to find the equations of motion for the deviations $$\eta_i$$. We have

$$ L \left (q_1, \ldots q_n \right ) = L \left (q_{0,1}, \ldots q_{0,n} ; \dot q_{0,1}, \ldots \dot q_{0,n} \right ) + \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial L}{\partial q_i} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot q_i} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot \eta_i \right ] + $$

$$ \frac{1}{2} \sum_{i,j} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i\eta_j + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial \dot q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot\eta_i \dot \eta_j + 2 \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i \dot \eta_j \right ] + $$

$$ L_1 \left ( q_{0,1}, \ldots q_{0,n}; \dot q_{0,1}, \ldots \dot q_{0,n} \right ) + \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial L_1}{\partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial L_1}{\partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot \eta_i \right ] + \cdots. $$

Now let's apply Lagrange's equations for the deviations

$$ \frac{d}{dt} \frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot \eta_i} - \frac{\partial L}{\partial \eta_i} = 0 $$

to give

$$ \frac{d}{dt} \left \{ \left ( \frac{\partial L_0}{\partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} + \left ( \frac{\partial L_1}{\partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} + \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial \dot q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot\eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i \right ] \right \} $$

$$ - \left ( \frac{\partial L_0}{\partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} + \left ( \frac{\partial L_1}{\partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} + \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot \eta_i \right ] = 0 $$

The two lowest orders terms without $$\eta$$ actually cancel each other out, leaving the following equations of motion.

$$ \frac{d}{dt} \left \{ \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial \dot q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot\eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i \right ] \right \} $$

$$ - \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i + \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \dot \eta_i \right ] = \left ( \frac{\partial L_1}{\partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} - \frac{d}{dt} \left ( \frac{\partial L_1}{\partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}}. $$

Let's specialize and assume that the unperturbed motion is steady so the partial derivatives of the unperturbed Lagrangian are constant in time, to obtain

$$ \sum_{i} \left [ \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial \dot q_i \partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \ddot\eta_i - \left ( \frac{\partial^2 L_0}{\partial q_i \partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} \eta_i \right ] = \left ( \frac{\partial L_1}{\partial q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}} - \frac{d}{dt} \left ( \frac{\partial L_1}{\partial \dot q_j} \right )_{q_{0,i}}. $$

which is the equation of a coupled set of driven harmonic oscillators.

Robotics/Computer Control/The Interface/Networks

Sometimes a single µcontroller isn't sufficient to control your robot. Then you'll be needing a way to connect all those µcontrollers, preferably without sacrificing too many pins or expensive ICs. Of course this problem has been solved a long time ago and there are quite a number of different standards each having their own advantages and disadvantages.

Standards
There are many different standards on connecting 2 or more µcontrollers (or computers), but here are the most used standards:

(See Serial communications bookshelf for more detailed information about serial communication standards)

I²C
Inter-Integrated-Circuit-bus or Two-wire serial bus: Used to connect ICs on a single board. The bus has one clock and one data line. Both the clock and data line are pulled high and device only drives the lines low. There are plenty of ICs available with build-in I²C interface including many of the modern µcontrollers.

µcontrollers with build in I²C support:
 * ATMEGA8
 * ATMEGA16
 * ATMEGA32
 * ATMEGA64
 * ATMEGA128
 * ATMEGA8535

Some I²C ICs:
 * MAX5380/5381/5382:   8Bit DAC
 * PCF8574:             8bit I/O-expander for I²C-bus
 * LM75:                digital temperature sensor

The I²C protocol can also be performed in software and is usually referred to as bit-banged I²C.

See:Philips Semiconductors

RS232
Recommended Standard 232: Better known as the serial port on a PC. Used to connect two devices.

See: Further down the page

RS422
Recommended Standard 422: industrial version of RS232. Much better than RS-232 at resisting interference.

See: RS422 tutorial

RS485
Recommended Standard 485: Better version of RS422: allows more than 2 devices to be connected together. (usually up to 32 devices)

RS232 <-> RS485 converters:
 * LTC485CN8:   DIL8
 * SN75LBC176D: SOIC8

See: RS485 tutorial

CAN
Acronym stands for "Controller Area Network." More complicated network. Used in automotive and domotica. Originally developed by Bosch in Germany. Limited to 1 Mbps in theory; with required overhead, protocol is slower than 1 Mbps. Data is delivered in packets of 8 bytes. CAN is frequently referred to as CANbus.

See: Philips Semiconductors

1wire
This bus uses 1 wire to supply power and communication to a IC. Used for temperature sensors and other low-power ICs. Despite the name, a second wire, ground, is used to complete the circuit. Data is sent to the IC by switching the wire between high and low. A built-in capacitor provides the IC with power during the low parts of the signal. This bus is intended for low-power devices, like temperature sensors.

See: Maxim-IC

SPI
SPI(Serial peripheral interface) is a 4-wire full duplex bus. The bus has a clock, transmit, receive, and select line. One device controls communication on the bus. When connecting multiple devices, each device is connected to the master with a separate select line and the master selects only one device at a time.

User:ImTheIP/ThoughtsOnWikipedia

 * Truer words were never spoken. I have been here for 3 years, and I feel as though I have just begun to get a grip on the morass of policy in the handful of areas where I most commonly edit. To me, editing feels like a deadly video game were partisan gangs try to kill you as you wander through an uncharted swamp without a compass trying to avoid the arcane booby-traps that editors set to get you banned. --E.M.Gregory

QFT!

Rules
There are to many rules. Especially the 500/30 rule is insane. Rules attract rules lawyers. Wikipedia has a rule called "assume good faith." Which has been used to accuse people with "You didn't assume good faith, you broke the rule!" Recursive rule breaking madness.

Hah! I wrote that many years ago. The 500/30 rule is awesome. If anything, it should be changed to 5000/300.

Voting
Many editors appear to be voting according to party lines. I'm noticing that a system called RFC is beginning to replace debates. For example, a user who disagrees with a more knowledgeable user can set up an RFC, get a few supporters on his side to vote "Yes." The C in RFC stands for comments but you don't get comments, only drive-by votes.

I don't know what the alternative is. I think good arguments should beat bad arguments. One person who can skillfully argue their position should beat someone who can't. On the other hand, marathon debates should be discouraged. Some people never give up.

Dispute resolution
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents

The process almost seem to be set up for failure. Or rather, to trap the accused. It seem like the only winning move if you are the target of a "dispute resolution process" is to not comment. Everything you write can, and will, be held against you.

Articles about live events
Like the 2017 Las Vegas Strip shooting. I don't know... I think there should be some grace period before articles are written about current events with fatalities.

Spanish: An Introduction/About Spanish

Background
Spanish belongs to the Indo-European language family. This group of languages contains several languages spoken primarily in Europe, India, and western Asia. Spanish is also a Romance language. English is a Germanic language. Russian is a Slavic language. This is shown in the picture:

61) Give examples of other Romance languages that would belong in the empty bubbles:

French, Italian, Latin, Romanian, Portuguese
 * Yeah. Something more? Imagine that Romance languages appeart after Roman Empire in Mediteranean (sorry for bad spelling).--Juan 13:25, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Portuguese, Catalan, Romanian OK. Thats fine. --Juan 18:27, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

What about Greek ? Sylvie 01:11, 27 August 2007

 * Well, Greek doesnt belong to the family of Romance languages. It has its own family of Greek languages. Romance languages were born from Latin during the times of Roman Empire. See: Greek and Romance languages.--Juan 09:25, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Spanish,French,Portuguese,Italian,Romanian Marie12 11:40, 9 October 2007 (UTC)Maryrose

The Gen
Spanglish is a blend of the English-language words for "Spanish" and "English".It has also been used for many years in the vernacular to denote a more jocular "mix-up" of Spanish and English where the speaker makes an English word "sound Spanish". Examples are: Beaners like them dern burritos n tacos Marie12 12:02, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Other Languages in Spain
Other languages in Spain include Catalan, Galician and Basque. There are several other minority languages which have much small communities that speak them and which are not protected by law to the same extent as these.

1) Where are these spoken?

Catalan (català) is a Romance language, the national language of Andorra, and a co-official language in the Spanish autonomous communities of Balearic Islands, Catalonia and Valencia (in the latter with the name of Valencian), and in the city of L'Alguer in the Italian island of Sardinia. It is also spoken, although with no official recognition, in the autonomous communities of Aragon (in La Franja) and Murcia (in El Carxe) in Spain, and in Northern Catalonia, a historical region of Catalonia in southern France, which is more or less equivalent to the département of the Pyrénées-Orientales. 1 --Friviere 12:26, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Nice. Yeah. Wikipedia is a big source of information.--Juan 13:25, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Basque (euskara) is spoken in an area straddling the Spanish-French border on the Atlantic side.

Galician (galego) is spoken in the Galician autonomous community by (still) the majority of the population and a bit more outer the borders, in Asturias and Castilla-Leon aut. comm. However, Galicians have emigrated a lot during XIX century (Cuba, Mexico and South America: Argentina, Brasil and Venezuela) and XX (Europe during Franco's time: France, Switzerland and Germany; rest of Spain last half: Ireland, Canarias, Catalonia, Madrid and Spanish Mediterranean coast). Since that, Galician could be sometimes heard in this places, as long as they keep related to the homeland by means of Galician centers or come back on holidays (and of course, if they are not shy or embarrased about speaking it, as it usually happens). It's still academically controversial if the variant of As Ellas (San Martiño de Trevello, San Martín de Trevejo, sus Ejas, Cáceres province), very far away from Galicia and only connected through Portuguese language areas but strongly vigorous, is a Galician descendant, Portuguese descendant or Asturian descendant language.

2) What are their origins?

Origins of the Catalan Language: The Catalan language developed by the 9th century from Vulgar Latin on both sides of the eastern part of Pyrenees mountains (counties of Roussillon, Empuries, Besalú, Cerdanya, Urgell, Pallars and Ribagorça). It shares features with Gallo-romance and Ibero-romance, and it could be said to be in its beginnings no more than an eccentric dialect of Occitan (or of Western Romance).

As a consequence of the Catalan conquests from Al-Andalus to the south and to the west, it spread to all present-day Catalonia, Balearic Islands and most of Valencia.

On the 15th century, during Valencian Golden Age, Catalan language reached its highest cultural splendor, which could not be comparable again until La Renaixença, 4 centuries later. 2 --Friviere 12:31, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Basque is thought to be one of the languages spoken in Western Europe before the arrival of the Indo-European tribes. Aside from lexical borrowings, it is totally unrelated to any of the surrounding languages (Spanish, French, Catalan, etc.).

 * And Galician with Basque also originate in Vulgar Latin?--Juan 13:25, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Galician does. Basque is a language isolate.  The Jade Knight 20:34, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Galician is very related to Portuguese, more than to Spanish. G and P come from the same language in the Middle Age, galego-portuguese, very strong in speakers and in prestige, even in the Castilian king court (?) of Toledo, south to Madrid. In fact, Portuguese in Portugal could be understood as the descendant of the G-P during the Reconquista. Later on, Portugal became an independent county (and a kingdom definitively in 1640), and the two languages started to differ more and more. Though North Portuguese and South Galician are still strongly (phonetical, economical and even cultural) related (and even more now with European Interreg Region structures, despite the Portuguese of schools is based on Coimbra-Lisboa standard), there is usually not a feeling of speaking the same language, unless for the reintegracionismo movement.

What’s the Difference Between "español" and "castellano"?
Yeah that’s a question. So what’s the difference?

Well, according to Castellano article, it is the synonym of "Spanish". If you want to contrast it with different language from Spain, you use "Castellano". Otherwise you use "Spanish". When I asked a lady from Argentina about the language they spoke, she said: "Actually, it's Castellano, but you can say that it's Spanish"
 * Yeah, thats right:-)--Juan 18:06, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Spanish Languages are in fact several, even when the most known is Castellano, also must be considered Spanish Languages: Basc, Catalan, Galician and Aranese, among others.--Friviere 12:34, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

 * So you think, if we are talking in here about Spanish languages Aranese should be mentioned. By which means is to important?--Juan 13:25, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Indigenous Languages of Latin America
1) write down some indigenous languages of Latin America:

Yaqui, Tarahumara, Achuar, Kamsa, Quechua, Otomi, Miskitu, Kuna, Ticuna

Good. Dont know all of them, but Quechua, Otomi and Kuna are from that region:-)--Juan 18:27, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/LegitimateProfit/Archive

Suspected sockpuppets

There are two articles which have had sporadic throwaway accounts since mid-2018: Rape during the occupation of Germany and Soviet partisans. In both articles, these accounts are adding pro-Soviet views from contemporary Russian sources: Previously these socks have been discussed in Sockpuppet investigations/YMB29.

What could be achieved with CU is that we could know whether the person in these two articles is the same, since they don't edit both articles, and possibly uncover more socks since they are a prolific creator it seems. It's very likely they are the same person because they just created a new username with a a slight change in both articles: Fuzzythroat ➜ Fuzzythrot (edits rape during the occupation of Germany) & LegitimateProfit ➜ LegitimateProft (edits Soviet partisans).

I created a 3RRN report for the newest account, but with AlexanderIvanenko wikilawyering there, edit-warring with him seems to be a waste of time. There has to be another way. Pudeo (talk) 21:56, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

Stale
 * Summerisfunday

 * Although LegitimateProfit is stale, the cu log gives the same exact city (not in Europe) as the confirmed/likely socks above making him.
 * These socks do not appear to be YMB29 based on location...2000+ miles away. Jacob Peters is although location is > 100 miles from the main area that was associated with him and his socks.
 * Both articles semi-protected one month and I'm indeffing all but Summerisfunday...if it shows up then we can check it then.

The day after Albertpda's most recent sock, Cafe20128, was banned, Shemakesmynosebleed appeared and immediately started editing articles related to the 2020 Belarusian protests, eg., from the same point of view Cafe20128 did - in particular, focusing on discrediting the flag used by protestors, vs.. They have also edited Russia and China-related articles from the same POV that Albertpda's socks have in the past, eg.. --Aquillion (talk) 15:25, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
