Talk:Posterization

Cleanup
Someone more familiar with this topic should edit the article: currently, there are two "definitions", some kind of intelligent merge is in order. Also, perhaps some more information would be desirable. <IP_ADDRESS> 14:52, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I agree. While the first paragraph starts with "posterization occurs", the second line goes back to "can be achieved", and the third back to "sampling range not good enough".  While some people undoubtedly will try to achieve this posterization effect, the much more common case of this term is going to be a negative connotation.  So, posterization is something that HAPPENS TO YOUR DIGITAL PICTURES, instead of a goal you are trying to achieve.  The emphasis should be placed accordingly, imho. Kmwiki 20:52, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

 * There's really nothing major wrong with this article, although "pheonmenon" or "effect" en lieu of "process" might be more accurate. --Belg4mit 04:34, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

 * No, there is something major wrong with this article. It's a jumble of different uses of the term.
 * A photographic process used in making posters.
 * Use of the photographics process for artistic effect.
 * A type of artifact in digital images.
 * Deliberate creation of the same type of effect in digital imaging.

Light-gated ion channel
Light-gated ion channels are a family of ion channels regulated by electromagnetic radiation. Other gating mechanisms for ion channels include voltage-gated ion channels, ligand-gated ion channels, mechanosensitive ion channels, and temperature-gated ion channels. Most light-gated ion channels have been synthesized in the laboratory for study, although two naturally occurring examples, Channelrhodopsin and Anion-conducting channelrhodopsin, are currently known. Photoreceptor proteins, which act in a similar manner to light-gated ion channels are generally G protein-coupled receptors and do not constitute an ion channel.

Mechanism
Light-gated ion channels function in a similar manner to other gated ion channels. These transmembrane proteins form pores through lipid bilayers to facilitate the passage of ions, whose movement is influenced by an electrochemical gradient, from one side of the membrane to another. When exposed to a certain stimulus, a conformational change occurs in the transmembrane region of the protein to open or close the ion channel. In the case of light-gated ion channels, the transmembrane proteins are usually coupled with a molecule that acts as a photoswitch, whereby photons serve to alter the conformation of these proteins, so that the pore changes from a closed state to an open state, and vice versa, thereby increasing or decreasing ion conductance. Retinal is a good example of a molecular photoswitch and is found in the naturally occurring Channelrhodopsins.

Synthetic isoforms
Once channelrhosopsin had been identified and characterized, researchers appreciated the value of modifying the channel's selectivity to increase anions permeability so as to maintain polarization of membrane potentials through optogenetic control. These mutated proteins successfully changed the charge lining the pore to exclude cations in favor of anions. Other ion channels have been modified by binding a photoswitch to confer photoregulation to the ion channel. This is done through careful selection of a tether which can lengthen or shorten through photoisomerization, binding one side of the tether to the ion channel and the other end to a blocking group with binding affinity for an exposed portion of the pore. When the tether is lengthened, it allows the blocking section to bind to the pore and preclude ion current. When the tether is shortened, it disrupts this binding and opens the pore without obstruction. Kinetic studies have demonstrated that fine temporal and spatial control can be achieved in this manner.

Azobenzene is a common choice for the functional portion of a tether for synthetically-developed light-gated ion channels because of its well documented length as either cis or trans isomers, as well as the excitation wavelength needed to induce photoisomerization. Azobenzene converts to its longer trans-isomer at λ=500 nm and its cis-isomer at λ=380 nm. [Banghart]

The expression of light-gated ion channels in a specific cell type through promoter control allows for regulation of cell potential by depolarizing the membrane to 0 mV for cation-permeant channelrhodopsin or by clamping the voltage to -67 mV for anion-conducting channelrhodopsin. [Berndt] Depolarization can occur on the timescale of action potentials and neurotransmitter exocytosis conducting a current in the range of 5 fA per channel. [Ishizuka] [Nagel] They have advantage over other types of regulation for ion channels in that they induce non-invasive, reversible membrane potential changes with fine temporal and spatial control granted by induction through laser stimuli. [Nagel] [Banghart] They reliably stimulate single action potentials with rapid depolarization and can be utilized in vivo because they do not require high intensity illumination to maintain function, unlike other techniques like photocaging. [Wietek] [Ishizuka]

Notes

Nagel - Native channelrhodopsin can be mutated to increase conductance and current flow. They can be expressed in live organisms and dissected tissue with protein functionality maintained. Physical (depolarization) and behavioral responses can be triggered through light stimulus if expressed in the appropriate location via promoters. It is permeable to sodium, potassium, protons and calcium. Advantages exist above photo-caged compounds. Resembles light-driven proton pump with seven transmembrane helices and intrinsic channel. All-trans retinal as chromophore.

Banghart - Azobenzene can act as a photoswitch to extend in trans to block a pore and contract in cis to activate the channel. This synthetic addition can be further regulated by various ligands to modify wavelength absorption. Non-invasive, reversible excitation with fine temporal and spatial control can be promoted by SPARK channels. Up to a 5 angstrom variance in block placement can change the channel from conducting to blocking. Figure 1B as good illustration of synthetic light-gated ion channel.

Ishizuka - Advantages of light-gated ion channels over contemporary techniques. Channelrhodopsin works in conjunction with a rhodopsin chromophore. Turning on takes less time than turning off and follow classical-type physics equations, at a speed comparable to exocytotic currents at fast CNS synapses. Non-selective to monovalent cations, depolarization can be caused in vivo. Criticism of artificial (SPARK) channels.

Jog - Beta-cyclodextrin together with azobenzene because of rapid isomerization coupled with large, geometric shift. Azobenzene bound to blocking site can adjust permeability through pi interactions with the azobenzene itself.

Wietek - Field of optogenetics. Reliably stimulate single AP with rapid depolarization. Light-driven proton pumps can maintain polarization, but require high intensity light. Retinal Schiff base as chromophore. Minor substitution of pore residues changed selectivity to chloride ion through higher anion affinity, increased pore flexibility and size due to H bonding disruption. Mimic GABAa receptors in inhibiting APs in vivo. Fully reversible fashion.

Berndt - 0 mV reversal potential due to non-selective cation permeability. Inability to engineer K+ selective channel. Seven Glu in channel. -61 mV reversal potential achieved with multiple substitutions, though effect remains dependent on pH. Multiple wavelengths of excitation are available for optogenetic experimentation.

Nagel - Native channelrhodopsin variants found in at least one bacteria. 7 transmembrane rhodopsin bound to retinal as chromophore. Channelrhodopsin = channelopsin + retinal. Two variants to mediate high and low intensity responses. Constant illumination can lead to desensitization of the channels. pH effects on permeability of various cations. Pore channel larger than Na+ channels, hence most ions travel through in a mostly dehydrated state. Ca+ is permeable, but Mg+ isn't, likely due to hydration. Desensitization occurs at a greater rate with positive membrane potential and high pH. Channelrhodopsin contains a channel, rather than activating one, as supported by the speed of opening. The protein is naturally expressed at a higher rate when grown in dark medium, and broken down under well-lit conditions (probably to protect the cell). It can depolarize mammalian cells. It has low, non-zero selectivity. Possible current of 5 fA per channel. Shifted absorbance can be observed through expression in different tissue. Alternative use to trigger Ca+ second messenger systems.

Seventh Five-Year Plans (Pakistan)

The Seventh Five-Year Plans for National Economy of Pakistan, otherwise known as Seventh Plan, were a set of a highly centralized and planned economic development targets designed for the improvement of the standard of living, and overall strengthening of gross domestic product (GDP) growth in Pakistan, between the period of 1988 until its termination in 1993.

The seventh plan was drafted and presented by the Ministry of Finance (MoF), led by then popularly elected Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, at the Parliament in 1988. The plan was studied by the Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) and resources were gathered to be allocated by the Planning Commission. The seventh plan was an integral part of Bhutto's social capitalist policies implementation and was also integrated with the nationalization programme of former Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. The plan emphasized macroeconomics principles and was intended to support the development of the agricultural and electricity sectors in Pakistan in order to keep up the GDP growth rate, which at that time was 6.6%— one of the highest in the world.

Under this plan, science policy was further expanded to integrate academic scientific development into national development plans. The seventh plan also took initiatives to revive deregulation of the corporate sector but did not privatize the sector into private-ownership management. Unlike the sixth plan, not all targets were met and goals were not sufficiently fulfilled. Only the agricultural and scientific development aspects of the plans were continued whilst all major initiatives were cancelled by the upcoming Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif who replaced the programme with an intensified privatization programme, launched in 1991.

General Genetics/Dominant and Recessive Genes

When Gregor Mendel studied pea plants, he studied one trait (height, flower color, etc.) at a time. As he studied different traits, he found that some versions of a trait tended to dominate over others. For example, he found that some plants produced wrinkled peas (r) instead of the round peas (R) typically observed, eventually attributed to a mutation affecting starch production. But not every plant that has the mutation to produce wrinkled peas. Because many organisms are diploid, which means they have two homologous chromosomes in each set, they have two copies of a locus (one on each chromosome). If one chromosome has the starch mutation (r) but the other chromosome doesn't (R), then the peas produce starch normally and have the rounded shape. In Mendelian genetics, this means that R is dominant over r.

Each individual pea plant has three possible genotypes: "RR," "Rr," and "rr."

This is a case of complete dominance, where the recessive trait is not seen as long as the organism has at least one copy of the dominant gene. This means that there are only two phenotypes: in this case, "round peas" or "smooth peas." Plants with either RR or Rr will produce round peas, whereas only rr plants will produce smooth peas.

The Molecular Basis of Dominance
We have said that organisms have "pairs" or "sets" of chromosomes, but what does that mean? To explain this point, let's consider humans, which have 23 pairs of chromosomes (for a total of 46 chromosomes). Within each pair, one chromosome was inherited from the maternal parent and the other from the paternal parent. When we say these chromosomes are "homologous," it does not mean they are genetically identical -- after all, most people do not have genetically identical parents. For chromosomes to be homologous, it simply means that the DNA sequences on each chromosome serve the same function, if not in the exact same way.

Any specific location on a chromosome can be referred to as a "locus" (pl: loci). Homologous chromosomes have the same loci, but they do not necessarily have the same DNA sequence at a given locus. Each unique variation of DNA sequence that can be found at a locus is an allele. In cases of complete dominance, the recessive allele is often nonfunctional. What makes Mendel's round and wrinkled peas a case of complete dominance is that pea plants can produce starch normally as long as they have at least one copy of the allele for normal starch formation.

Alternative Patterns of Inheritance
Not all loci show this simple dominance. If we represent phenotype on a plot then Complete Dominance would be like this:

AA/Aa                                         aa     Complete Dominance

Other types are:

AA                   Aa                       aa     No Dominance

AA    Aa                                      aa     Incomplete Dominance

Aa     AA                                     aa     Over Dominance

He recruited his friend and former bandmate Glenn Dicker, with whom he had worked at Rounder Records. They made the decision to also start a distribution wing, Redeye.

The first releases were local compilations, followed in subsequent years by records by Hüsker Dü's Bob Mould, Marah, Dolorean, The Legendary Shack Shakers, Cities, Dave Alvin, and Los Straitjackets.

The success of Los Straitjackets and the experience of working with Dicker on the Rounder-distributed Upstart convinced Nick Lowe to join Yep Roc. Scott McCaughey (The Minus 5, Young Fresh Fellows, The Baseball Project, The No Ones) joined the label because of Nick Lowe's presence, and has remained for almost a decade.

In 2016, Dicker was elected to the American Association of Independent Music Board of Directors.

Philosophy
Yep Roc calls itself "the artist-driven label that refuses to be labeled." Glenn Dicker said, "It’s a little challenging when we do a singer-songwriter, some blues guy, some garage-rock guy, some indie thing. It’s a little bit all over the place. It presents fun challenges, but the marketing of this brand is difficult."

Cookbook:Cuisine of Ethiopia

Ethiopian Dishes
Most Ethiopian dishes are based on berbere, powdered hot red pepper that also contains a variety of other spices. Spiced, clarified butter is also commonly used, as are a variety of other spices. Usually several dishes are served at a meal, and Injera, a flat, pancake-like bread is always included. Stew or "wat" dishes are the mainstay of Ethiopian cuisine. They can be meat, grain or vegetable based, and are usually highly spiced, but not always hot. Perhaps because Orthodox Christian Ethiopians traditionally eat vegetarian food twice a week, the cuisine has developed a large variety of complex vegetarian dishes. The following are some of the most common Ethiopian dishes:

MEAT DISHES

Doro Wat - Chicken Stew is a popular Ethiopian dish, Doro Wat consists of chicken stewed in a red hot pepper sauce. The chicken is cooked until it is quite tender and served with the bones in. Hard-boiled eggs are included in the stew, pierced before cooking so that they absorb some of the sauce.

Siga Wat - Beef stew in hot red pepper sauce. The beef is cut into small pieces and stewed until tender.

Beg Wat - Lamb stew in hot red pepper sauce. The lamb is cut into chunks, sometimes with the bone in.

Kitfo - Raw, finely chopped spiced beef.

VEGETABLE DISHES

Gomen Wat - Boiled collard greens with garlic, onions and sometimes, ginger.

Mesir Wot - Lentils, usually cooked in hot pepper sauce. This dish ranges from hot to very hot. Lentils are cooked until they are quite soft and blend slightly with the sauce.

Shiro Wot - A stew made from toasted and ground split peas.

DESSERT

Ethiopians do not as a rule eat dessert, although restaurants sometimes offer them as a boon to their non-Ethiopian guests.

DRINKS

Tela - Unfiltered beer, often homemade. Beer in bottles is called "bira".

Tej - A Sweet honey-wine. It is often homemade and is of varying strengths, ranging from the very sweet and almost non-alcoholic "birz", to the stronger and less sweet true tej. It is available in bottles, but the taste does not match that served at home by an expert tej-maker.

Coffee - Coffee originated in Ethiopia and drinking coffee involves its own ceremony. Ethiopians hand roast their coffee, often bringing out a pan of sizzling beans so that their guests can smell the aroma. The coffee is then ground and boiled in a clay pot called a "jebena". The hostess will sit on stool in front of a low table and light chunks of incense, often myrrh. The coffee pot is left to rest until the grinds settle to the bottom. It is then poured into tiny cups and served with sugar. The hostess will make a second pot using the same grinds and the process will be repeated. Sometimes a third pot will be made. Coffee is served at any time during the day and almost always after meals.

Talk:Linear Algebra/Eigenvalues and eigenvectors

When I looked at this page, I noticed that some sections were duplicated. This was caused by a recent edit:

Revision as of 19:35, 26 Oct 2004 <IP_ADDRESS>

I'll leave it to someone else to fix.

Joel Buursma

wow
after my lectures and my textbooks, this has been one of the most useful explanations. <IP_ADDRESS> 21:59, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Mistake?
In the example

$$P=\left(\begin{matrix}-1&1\\4&1\end{matrix}\right)$$

and

$$P^{-1}=1/5\left(\begin{matrix}1&-4\\-1&-1\end{matrix}\right)$$,

but I think $$P^{-1}$$ should be

$$P^{-1}=\frac{1}{5}\left(\begin{matrix}-1&1\\4&1\end{matrix}\right)$$.

Hi Silencer. You are right, the article is wrong.

 * I agree. The article is wrong, and I shall change it. -MarkHudson 11:41, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Lambdas replaced in last example
The last (vector ODE) example concluded that solutions to the equation would require that lambda be an eigenvalue of the matrix, but the rest of the example continues to use lambda. I just replaced the lambda with its specific values (4 and 2) in the rest of the problem.

<IP_ADDRESS> 18:03, 29 March 2006 (UTC)Spock

Most probably a typo
Eigenvalues and eigenvectors are not mere pretty facts about these vectors;... Should have been matrices? --<IP_ADDRESS> 23:05, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

2007 World Aquatics Championships

The 2007 World Aquatics Championships, or the XII FINA World Championships, were held in Melbourne, Australia from 17 March to 1 April 2007. The competition took place at three locations in central Melbourne: the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre (diving and water polo), St Kilda Beach (open water), and Rod Laver Arena in a temporary pool christened the Susie O'Neill Pool (synchro and swimming).

A total of 2,158 athletes from 167 nations participated in the 2007 championships. The total number of spectators was more than 215,000, setting a new record attendance for the event. FINA President Mustapha Larfaoui described the competition as "the biggest and best in history."

Medals table
At the end of the competition, the medals table contained an entry for Tunisia, with one gold and one silver medal, both won by Oussama Mellouli. However, on 11 September 2007, the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne, Switzerland vacated these results imposing an 18-month competition ban on Mellouli, effective retroactively to 30 October 2006 for doping with amphetamine.

Swimming
The Swimming competition comprised various events using all four strokes (Freestyle, Butterfly, Breaststroke and Backstroke) for men and women ranging in distance from 50 m up to 1500 m.

A total of 40 gold medals were available for the Championships. The swimming schedule took place over eight days during the second week of the Championships.

The Swimming events were held at the 15,000-seat Rod Laver Arena using a temporary pool.

Open water swimming
The open water swimming competition saw men and women competing in events over 5 km, 10 km and 25 km distances. Events were held at St Kilda Beach.

Synchronised swimming
The synchronised swimming competition featured a solo, a duet, and a team competition. There was also a combination routine, consisting of a mixture of the solo, duet and team routine. Events were held at the 15,000-seat Rod Laver Arena using a temporary pool.

Diving
The diving competition saw athletes competing for 10 gold medals. Athletes contested the 1 m and 3 m Springboard events, as well as the 10 m Platform as individuals. There were 3 m and 10 m synchronised events for men and women competing as a team. Events were held at the indoor diving pool at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre.

Water polo
The water polo competition featured 16 men's teams and 16 women's teams. For each of the two tournaments, a round robin competition took place in four divisions, each with four teams, with the two highest placed teams moving through the medal rounds.

The water polo tournaments were held at the 9,000-seat outdoor pool at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre, which was constructed for the 2006 Commonwealth Games swimming competition.

The water polo competition also served as the qualifying tournament for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.

Bidding process
Melbourne was awarded the right to host the 12th FINA World Swimming Championships by the FINA Bureau in Barcelona, Spain on 12 July 2003. Melbourne's bid defeated the bid by Dubai, UAE by a vote of 15 to 6.

Amir Mohammad Khan

Nawab of Kalabagh Malik Amir Mohammad Khan (20 June 1910 – 26 November 1967) was the hereditary ruler of Kalabagh Estate and a prominent feudal lord, politician of Pakistan. He was also the Chief or Sardar of the Awan tribe. Nawab of Kalabagh has been a ruling title for tribal estate of Kalabagh, in Mianwali District of north western Punjab, Pakistan.

Early life
Nawab Malik Amir Mohammad Khan received his college education at Aitchison College, Lahore and then went on to finish his education at Oxford University in England.

Career
Nawab Malik Amir Mohammad Khan served as a member of the Provincial Assembly of Punjab from 1956 – 1958. He also served as Governor of West Pakistan from 1960 to 1966. He was appointed chairman Pakistan Industrial Development Corporation with the rank of a Central Minister in 1959, and subsequently Governor of West Pakistan on 12 April 1960 by Pakistan President General Ayub Khan.

His role during the Indo-Pakistan War of 1965 is praised, as he kept the law and order, controlled the prices, trafficked the raw material, and prevented smuggling.

Among the guests to his famous Kalabagh guest house, the Bohr Bangalow were Eleanor Roosevelt in 1952 and former Pakistani Presidents Iskander Mirza, Ayub Khan and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto.

General Jahandad Khan, who was military secretary to Nawab Malik Amir Mohammad Khan, the then governor of West Pakistan, wrote a book, Pakistan Leadership Challenges. In that book Nawab Malik Amir Mohammad Khan comes across as a sound, no-nonsense administrator, firmly wedded to the values and traditions of the feudal class. He was also considered "brutal," "ruthless" and "harsh" in both his public and private life. British assessment of the Nawab of Kalabagh was very similar. In his book Jahandad, Nawab Malik Amir Mohammad Khan's military secretary dismisses alleged rumours about a somewhat sinister aspect of the Ayub regime.

In 1963, the regime faced strong opposition from the political party Jamaat-i-Islami. Ayub himself "felt gravely threatened by its head, Maudoodi." "Some sycophants" sought to persuade Ayub that "the physical elimination" of Maulana would bring peace to the country and that Malik Amir Mohammad Khan would help execute this attempt. Khan dismisses this as a baseless rumour in his above book.

Death
It was widely reported in Pakistani news media that his third youngest son Asad Khan killed him over a family property dispute on 26 November 1967.

Descendants
His eldest son Nawab Malik Muzaffar Khan had been a member of National Assembly from Mianwali for 3 consecutive term in 1962-1964, 1965-1969 and 1970-1977.

Nawab Malik Muzzafar Khan had three sons: the eldest Malik Idrees Khan, the second Malik Fareed khan and the youngest Malik Waheed Khan. Nawab Malik Idrees Khan became the Nawab of Kalabagh after his father’s death. He died without issue. After his death, his second Brother Nawab Malik Fareed Khan became Nawab. Nawab Malik Fareed Khan died in a vehicle accident. Thus his only son Nawab Malik Mohammad Ali Khan became Nawab of Kalabagh, a position he holds to this day.

Nawab Malik Amir Muhammad Khan's second son Malik Allahyar also remained a member of Majlis-e-Shoora during General Zia-ul-Haq's military regime from 1981 to 1985. Malik Allahyar's daughters, Sumaira Malik and Ayla Malik, both were members of the National Assembly of Pakistan from 2002 until 2013.

Amir Mohammad Khan's third son was Malik Asad Khan. Malik Asad's son Malik Amad Khan, won the National Assembly of Pakistan seat from NA-71 Mianwali-I in the February 2008 elections as an independent candidate. He also served as state minister of Foreign Affairs Pakistan from 2008 to 2013.

Nawab Malik Amir Mohammad Khan's fourth and youngest son Malik Azam Khan was murdered in 1995. Malik Azam died without issue.

William G. Mandeville

William Griffin Mandeville (August 16, 1807 Kinderhook, Columbia County, New York – 1885) was an American politician and Union Army officer from New York.

Life
He was the son of Jeremiah Mandeville (1774–1843) and Jesyntje (Vosburgh) Mandeville (b. 1776). He became a carriage-maker, and set up shop in the area which was separated in 1833 as the Town of Stockport, New York. He abandoned this in 1836, bought a farm, and engaged in agricultural pursuits. He was a Justice of the Peace in Stockport from 1836 to 1840. In 1837, he married Elizabeth White (1816–1895), and they had six children.

He was a member of the New York State Assembly (Columbia Co.) in 1841. In 1841, he sold the farm, removed to Stuyvesant Falls, New York, and became engaged in flour and paper mills there. In 1852, he established his own paper mill in Livingston, New York, and ran this business until 1856 when he retired.

He was a Democratic member of the New York State Senate (11th D.) in 1858 and 1859. Mandeville was appointed as Postmaster of Stuyvesant Falls in June 1858. He executed his oath and bond, and sent them to the U.S. Postal Department but, before his commission could have been issued, declined to take the office, too late realising that the acceptance of this appointment would vacate his Senate seat. Henry C. Wetmore had himself nominated, and elected at the State election in November 1858, claiming a vacancy, although no notice of such a special election had been given by the Secretary of State, and no candidates were nominated by the other parties. Mandeville appeared at the beginning of the session of 1859, and took his seat. After much debate, Mandeville's seat was declared vacant on March 16, and Wetmore was seated on April 5, 1859.

He was again nominated on the Democratic ticket for the State Senate (15th D.) in 1879, but was defeated by Stephen H. Wendover.

Template:S

Purpose/Usage

 * space

This is a short-form 'alias' for the template space, which it calls, if necessary, with the default of '3', but will also accept a numeric argument and pass same onto space.

 * 'space' is extremely useful to align things like 'monthname year' lists inside a table, but shoves the table innards around creating wrapped edit lines and disorganizing the columnar nature of such a flat table columnized list.

 * 's', by defaulting to '3' ('NN') spaces thus takes up far less width and leaves the editor less confused by replacing either 'NN' ' & nbsp ; ' and/or ' & emsp ; ' HTML codes or the 'space' template width itself allowing one to finesse things like lining up the years between a column of dates or other unequal length text fields, and other such naturally misaligning tabular data.

Heading oneHeading two:    November 2005 <--->November 2005    May 2006 <--->May2006 ... (all a one line entry, or can be spaced out some) gives: Heading oneHeading two: November 2005 <--->November 2005   May 2006 <--->May2006

Morgera was born on August 5, 1946, in Providence, Rhode Island. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science in physics with honors in 1968, and later obtained two postgraduate degrees in electrical engineering, a Master of Science in 1970 and a Ph.D. in 1975, all from Brown University.

Career
From 1968 to 1978, Morgera was employed by Raytheon in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, as a Senior Scientist and Project Manager within the submarine signal division. During these early years of his career, his accomplishments at Raytheon led to the creation of a patent for an innovative ocean bottom topography system (U.S. Patent 4207620 A) and deployment of a new acoustic telemetry system.

In 1978, Morgera served as a Professor at Concordia University in Montréal, Quebec, within the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science. Following a successful research career at Concordia through 1986, he joined McGill University as a Professor and Director of the Information Networks and Systems Laboratory, while concurrently appointed to multiple leadership roles within the Government of Canada and Industry Canada, including Special Assistant to the President, Communications Research Centre Canada, President of the Quebec Research Council, Le Fonds Nature et Technologies, and Major Project Leader, Canadian Institute for Telecommunications Research (CITR).

Florida Atlantic University then appointed Morgera as Professor and Chair of Electrical Engineering in 1998, where he worked to establish and innovate the University's bioengineering eminence and served as the Director of the Bioengineering Program. His substantial meritorious service was recognized by Florida Atlantic University through the conferral of the Emeritus Professor honorary title. Since 2009, Morgera has served as a Professor of Electrical Engineering and Director of the C4ISR Defense & Intelligence and Bioengineering Laboratories at the University of South Florida. During these later years of his career, his accomplishments at the University of South Florida led to the creation of a patent for an innovative breath collection device that can detect changes associated with pathogenesis of a disease, such as COVID-19, including biomarkers of immune response for respiratory symptoms, central nervous system injury, and/or peripheral nervous system injury in user breath and/or odor (U.S. Patent 11129545). This device was created in rapid response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Morgera is a Life Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) for his contributions to finite-dimensional signal processing methods (structured estimation). In 2018, he was elected as Fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology as recognition for his leadership in the discipline of Electrical Engineering, his contributions to bioengineering, and his high impact research in understanding the neurological networks of the human brain. In 2011, he was elected as Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) as recognition for pioneering research in structured estimation theory, adaptive communications, pattern analysis and academic program development in undergraduate engineering leadership and graduate bioengineering. In 2009, he was designated as a Tau Beta Pi Eminent Engineer, for achieving eminence in the field of engineering and exemplary character in the profession. He has also received commendations from both the United States and Canadian governments, Minister of Industry, Communications Research Center, for his science and technology contributions.

Selected bibliography
Morgera has published 165+ journal papers, 155+ conference papers, and a book, Digital Signal Processing – Applications to Communications and Algebraic Coding Theories, Academic Press. He has authored over 120 classified government documents in the areas of C4ISR. His primary areas of research contributions include wireless networks, particularly in the areas of QoS, advanced radio link protocols and cybersecurity; biometrics for identity management; and bioengineering, with emphasis on neurological networks.

As either a Principal Investigator or co-PI, he has received research support from the United States Special Operations Command, United States Department of Defense, Defense Information Systems Agency, National Science Foundation, NASA, Florida Department of Education, and multiple private sector industrial investors, including Raytheon and Harris Corporation.

LauncherOne

LauncherOne was a two-stage orbital launch vehicle developed and flown by Virgin Orbit that had operational flights from 2021 to 2023, after being in development from 2007 to 2020. It was an air-launched rocket, designed to carry smallsat payloads of up to 300 kg into Sun-synchronous orbit (SSO), following air launch from a carrier aircraft at high altitude. The rocket was carried to the upper atmosphere on a modified Boeing 747-400, named Cosmic Girl, and released over ocean. Initial work on the program was done by Virgin Galactic, another Virgin Group subsidiary, before a separate entity — Virgin Orbit — was formed in 2017 to complete development and operate the launch service provider business separately from the passenger-carrying Virgin Galactic business.

The first successful flight was on 17 January 2021, which delivered a payload of 10 CubeSats to low Earth orbit (LEO). Three further launches successfully reached orbit. An initial test flight was unsuccessful on 25 May 2020, when the rocket failed to reach space. The final flight on 9 January 2023 also failed to reach orbit.

LauncherOne was the first all liquid-fuelled air-launched orbital rocket.

From 2007 to 2015, Virgin had intended LauncherOne to be a somewhat smaller vehicle with a 200 kg payload to low Earth orbit. In 2015, Virgin modified the vehicle design to better target their intended market, and increased the vehicle payload capacity to 300 kg launched to a 500 km Sun-synchronous orbit, suitable for CubeSats and small payloads. Virgin Orbit targeted a launch price around US$12 million for the rocket.

With Virgin Orbit shutting down all operations after bankruptcy in 2023, the vehicle is unlikely to see additional launches.

History
Virgin Galactic began working on the LauncherOne concept in 2007, and the technical specifications were first described in some detail in late 2009. The LauncherOne configuration was proposed to be an expendable, two-stage, liquid-fueled rocket air-launched from a White Knight Two carrier aircraft. This would make it a similar configuration to that used by Orbital Sciences' Pegasus, or a smaller version of the StratoLaunch air-launched rocket system.

By 2012, several commercial customers had signed early contracts for launches signaling demand-side support for new small commercial-oriented launch vehicles. These included GeoOptics, Skybox Imaging, Spaceflight Services, and Planetary Resources. Both Surrey Satellite Technology and Sierra Nevada Space Systems were at the time reported to be developing satellite buses "optimized to the design of LauncherOne". In October 2012, Virgin announced that LauncherOne would be designed so that it could place 200 kg in Sun-synchronous orbit (SSO). Virgin planned at the time to market the 200 kg payload delivery to Sun-synchronous orbit for under US$10 million per mission, while the maximum payload for low Earth orbit (LEO) missions would be somewhat larger at 500 kg.

Under plans announced in 2012, the second stage was to be powered by NewtonOne, a 16 kN thrust engine, and the first stage by a scaled-up version called NewtonTwo, with 211 kN of thrust. Design and construction of the first engines was completed by 2014. NewtonOne was tested up to a full-duration burn of five minutes. NewtonTwo made several short-duration firings by early 2014. Ultimately, however, neither NewtonOne nor NewtonTwo would be used on LauncherOne.

In 2015, Virgin Galactic established a 14000 m2 research, development, and manufacturing center for LauncherOne at Long Beach Airport, California. The company reported in March 2015, that they were on schedule to begin test flights of LauncherOne with its NewtonThree engine by the end of 2016, but they did not achieve that objective.

On 25 June 2015, the company signed a contract with OneWeb Ltd. for 39 satellite launches for its satellite constellation with an option for an additional 100 launches, but in 2018 OneWeb canceled all but four, prompting a lawsuit from Virgin Orbit. OneWeb filed for bankruptcy protection in 2020.

News reports in September 2015 indicated that the heavier payload of 200 kg was to be achieved by longer fuel tanks and use of the recently qualified NewtonThree engine, but this also meant that the Virgin-developed carrier aircraft White Knight Two would no longer be able to lift the rocket to launch altitude, so in December 2015, Virgin announced a change to the carrier plane for LauncherOne to carry the heavier payload. The carrier aircraft subsequently was changed to a used Boeing 747-400, Cosmic Girl, previously operated by Virgin Galactic's sister company, Virgin Atlantic, and purchased outright by Virgin Group from Boeing upon the expiration of that airframe's lease. The 747 will allow a larger LauncherOne to carry the heavier payloads. The modification work on the company's 747 was expected to be completed in 2016, to be followed by orbital test launches of the rocket in 2017.

It was further announced in December 2015 that the revised LauncherOne would utilize the larger NewtonThree rocket engine on the booster stage, with the NewtonFour powering the second stage. NewtonThree was to be a 260 –-thrust engine, and began hot-fire testing by March 2015. The NewtonFour engine would power the second stage. NewtonThree generate 326.8 kN of thrust while NewtonFour deliver 26.5 kN to the second stage and is capable of multiple restarts.

On 2 March 2017, Virgin Galactic announced that its 200-member LauncherOne team was being spun off into a new company called Virgin Orbit. A subsidiary company of Virgin Orbit called Vox Space was created to carry out business which require strict security requirements. , the company planned to fly approximately twice a month by 2020.

In September 2017, the first test flights of LauncherOne were delayed to 2018. By June 2018, the Virgin Orbit captive carry flight testing campaign for LauncherOne, including a planned drop test of an unfueled rocket, was licensed to begin in July 2018, and could run for up to six months.

In the event, no LauncherOne test flights occurred in 2018 and were delayed further, to December 2019, with only the carrier aircraft beginning to fly in 2018. The first three test flights of Cosmic Girl, including the pylon but not the rocket, happened on 23, 25 and 27 August 2018. A high-speed taxi test, with a rocket mounted beneath the aircraft, took place in early November 2018. The aircraft flew its first test flight with both pylon and rocket attached on 18 November 2018.

Virgin Orbit announced many upgrade and expansion plans that were not finished, such as a 3 stages variant. On 17 March 2022 Polish Space Agency and Virgin Orbit signed an agreement to use LauncherOne as means to send satellites into orbit, with its first launch from Poland planned for 2023.

Its parent, Virgin Orbit, declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy on April 4, 2023.

Flights

The maiden flight of LauncherOne took place on 25 May 2020. The flight failed a few seconds after the ignition of the rocket due to a premature shutdown of the first stage engine, caused by a break in a propellant feed line, and the rocket did not reach space. The launch failure was attributed to a failure of a high-pressure liquid oxygen fuel line in the NewtonThree engine. Due to the failure, oxygen was no longer supplied to the engine and the flight was terminated. The issue with the fuel line was addressed by strengthening the broken components.

The second launch took place on 17 January 2021, and was the first to successfully reach orbit. The rocket deployed 10 CubeSats for NASA's Educational Launch of Nanosatellites mission (ELaNa 20). Cosmic Girl took off from Mojave Air and Space Port in California at 18:38 UTC. The aircraft launched the LauncherOne rocket at 19:39 UTC. The launch occurred at the altitude of 10700 m. On 17 January 2021, both NewtonThree and NewtonFour performed as expected. During launch, NewtonFour fired twice; once to inject the second stage and the payloads into a transfer orbit, and again to circularize the orbit.

On 9 January 2023, the first UK launch and final launch for the rocket took place, but it was unsuccessful due to an issue in the upper segment of the rocket.

Design
LauncherOne is a two-stage air-launched vehicle. The rocket had a diameter of 1.6 m for the first stage and 1.3 m for the second stage and payload fairing.

On the 24th of October 2019, the company announced plans to develop a three-stage variant that would be capable of launching 100 kg to the Moon, 70 kg to Venus, or 50 kg to Mars.

Engines
LauncherOne is a two-stage air-launched vehicle using Newton engines, RP-1/LOX liquid rocket engines. The second stage was to be powered by NewtonOne, a 211 kN thrust engine. It was originally intended that the first stage will be powered by a scaled-up design of the same basic technology as NewtonOne, called NewtonTwo, with 211.5 kN of thrust. Both engines had been designed, and first articles were built. NewtonOne was tested up to a full-duration burn of five minutes. NewtonTwo made several short-duration firings by early 2014.

NewtonThree is a 260 –-thrust engine, and began hot-fire tests. NewtonThree powered the first stage of LauncherOne.

2015 redesign: new engines, larger payloads, new carrier aircraft

News reports in September 2015 indicated that the higher payload is to be achieved by longer fuel tanks and the NewtonThree engine but this will mean that White Knight Two would no longer be able to lift it to launch altitude. The rocket was to be carried to launch altitude by a Boeing 747. The revised LauncherOne utilizes both the Newton 3 and Newton 4 rocket engines.

In December 2015, Virgin announced a change to the carrier plane for LauncherOne, as well as a substantially-larger design point for the rocket itself. The carrier aircraft will now be a Boeing 747, which will in turn allow a larger LauncherOne to carry heavier payloads than previously planned. The modification work on the particular Boeing 747 that Virgin has purchased is expected to be completed in 2016, to be followed by Orbital test launches of the rocket in 2017.

Intended usage
LauncherOne is designed to launch a 300 kg payload to a 500 km Sun-synchronous orbit (SSO), suitable for CubeSats and small payloads. Virgin Orbit has also announced the ability of LauncherOne to send payloads into heliocentric orbit for flybys of Mars, Venus or asteroids.

Launch sites

Virgin Orbit integrated payloads at their headquarters in Long Beach, California.

LauncherOne launched from the Cosmic Girl Boeing 747-400 carrier, attached to a pylon on the aircraft's left wing, and released over the ocean at a location depending on the desired orbital inclination. This process avoids typical delays for ground launches due to weather and upper-level winds. William Pomerantz of Virgin Orbit stated that any airport that can support a Boeing 747 could have been used, subject to local legislation.

The carrier plane lifted off from the Mojave Air and Space Port in California, United States and Newquay Airport in Cornwall, United Kingdom. The company also had plans to use other airports such as Kennedy Space Center in Florida and Alcântara Space Center in Brazil that never materialized. Other proposed launch sites included Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport in Hawaii, José Aponte de la Torre Airport in Puerto Rico, Oita Airport in Japan, Andersen Air Force Base in Guam and Toowoomba Wellcamp Airport in Australia.

Geometry/Introduction

Introduction to High School Geometry
The word geometry comes originally from Greek, meaning literally, to measure the earth. It is an ancient branch of mathematics, but its modern meaning depends largely on context.
 * To the elementary or middle school student (ages six to thirteen in the U.S. school system), geometry is the study of the names and properties of simple shapes (e.g., the defining properties of triangles, squares, rectangles, trapezoids, circles, prisms, etc., along with formulas for their areas or volumes).
 * To the high school student (ages fourteen to seventeen in the U.S. system), geometry has two flavors: synthetic and analytic. Synthetic geometry uses deductive proof to study the properties of points, lines, angles, triangles, circles, and other plane figures, roughly following the plan laid out by the Greek textbook writer Euclid around 300 B.C. Analytic geometry follows the pioneering work of the French mathematicians René Descartes (1596-1650) and Pierre Fermat (1601-1665) to impose a coordinate grid on the plane, making it possible to study geometric objects (e.g., lines, parabolas, and circles) by means of algebra (e.g., linear equations and quadratic equations) and vice versa.
 * To the mathematical researcher geometry is a subject that has grown far from its roots, and he may refer to his field as modern geometry to distinguish it from the school subject. Modern geometry comes in two main flavours: algebraic geometry (Algebraic curves and surfaces, algebraic varieties), and differential geometry (Riemannian geometry, Spin geometry, Lie groups and algebras). Differential geometry is used in many ways; to describe the universe in the theory of general relativity (Lorentzian 4-manifolds), to describe soap bubble films (minimal surfaces) and as the building blocks of particle physics (Lie groups).

The first part of this wiki textbook aspires to be a high school geometry text adequate to satisfy the California curriculum content standards.

Why invest the energy to learn geometry?
Basic geometry is a very powerful practical problem solver. It was used by the ancient Egyptians and Greeks for solving most problems and was the proto-type for rational thinking. Where we use algebra today the Greeks used geometry then. It is still very current in all the building and fabrication trades. Before building something big and expensive it is better to work out the bugs in a small scale model. Before expending a lot of energy in making a model it is best to do a drawing. With geometry the drawings become very accurate and can be used to predict measurements and costs. Geometry can be easy to master; the proofs are more fun than sudoko; and its applications are as practical as a hammer and saw. It will give you a sophisticated visual intuition and a strong sense of rational proof and a jumping-off place for some of the most abstract areas of pure mathematics. It’s hard to imagine a mathematical education without geometry.

What should I know before attempting this text?

 * Read Geometry for Elementary School. It will make you comfortable with the terms and diagrams used here.

 * You should be able to do arithmetic up to addition of fractions without a calculator (1/4 + 2/5 = 13/20); and solve simple algebra problems (2x -1= 0 then x= 1/2) and (X^2-16=0). Often algebra and geometry are taught together and the students would know enough algebra by the time they needed it. It wouldn't hurt to read the first few chapters in both arithmetic and beginning algebra while doing geometry. Mathematics builds on itself. This means that only if you work all the examples and learn the definitions will later pages make sense to you. Keep a notebook and make lots of drawings. Talking to others about what you learn is invaluable. You do your part and a good text book will get you there. Unit 1 from Algebra should be more than enough to achieve proficient knowledge for this book.

How difficult? Intuition vs. rigor:
Fifteen little boys sit in front of their first soccer coach, knowing nothing about the game. The coach stands up to teach them soccer. How does he begin?

Perhaps he lectures for several hours, explaining the rules of soccer along with common strategies and tactics. The little boys grow bored. Having no experience of the game, they have trouble understanding the rules and even more trouble remembering them. By the end they have no sense of what a soccer game feels like.

On the other hand, perhaps the coach divides the boys into two teams, takes them to a soccer field, throws them a ball, tells them, "Try to get the ball into the other team's goal and keep it out of your own," and then lets them play. Knowing no rules, the boys play a game little like soccer. They pick the ball up and run with it, paying no attention to the boundaries of the field. When they finally get the idea to kick the ball, they have no skill at dribbling, passing, or working together as a team. They have some fun, but again they end up not knowing what a soccer game feels like.

The first approach (teaching all the rules before playing) is what mathematicians might call a rigorous approach to soccer while the second (just playing without worrying about rules) is what they might call an intuitive approach. Rigor emphasizes the rules. Intuition emphasizes the play. Good teaching and good learning need a balance of both. A good soccer coach starts by teaching the boys some of the most important rules, making them practice some basic drills, and letting them play a little. At first he probably emphasizes the intuitive, letting them play more, so that they get a sense of how the game works and how much fun it can be. Later, as they develop a taste for the game, he focuses more on skills and drills, on rules, strategy, and tactics.

The teacher of beginning geometry students faces the same question as the soccer coach: emphasize rigor or emphasize intuition? Following the example of the good coach, this first chapter emphasizes intuition while introducing a little rigor. Specifically this chapter introduces many of the elementary concepts and much of the terminology of geometry in the context of an intuitive treatment of Euclidean geometry. Later chapters revisit these topics with greater rigor.

So, for instance, this chapter addresses Euclidean geometry without explaining what makes it Euclidean and without mentioning other sorts of geometry. Again, since elementary geometers think of points as dots, this chapter explains that a point is like an infinitely small dot. It is a helpful mental image that has served geometers well for over 2000 years. Rigorous approaches to geometry leave the term point undefined, but this text reserves that subtle and confusing convention for a later chapter. Again, this text assumes that its readers already understand something about area and volume and the units for measuring them, so it does not try to define and explain standard units of area and volume.

Picrorhiza kurroa

Picrorhiza kurroa is one of the major income generating non-timber forest products found in the Nepalese Himalayas. It is one of the oldest medicinal plants traded from the Karnali zone. Known as kutki or कुटकी in Nepali, it is a perennial herb and is used as a substitute for Indian gentian (Gentiana kurroo).

Habitat
It is found in the Himalayan region from Ladakh Kashmir to Sikkim at an elevation of 2700–4500 m and in Nepal, found abundantly between 3500 and 4800 m. It has been reported that Picrorhiza has been harvested to near extinction.

Description
Leaves: 5–15 cm long leaves, almost all at the base, often withered. Leaves are coarsely toothed, narrowed to a winged stalk. Rhizomes of the plant are 15–25 cm long and woody. Flowers: small, pale or purplish blue, borne in cylindric spikes, spikes borne on almost leafless erect stems. Flowers about 8 mm, 5-lobed to the middle, and with much longer stamens. Fruits: 1.3 cm long.

Chemistry: Chemical composition of Picrorhiza kurroa include Kutkin, a bitter glycoside which contains two C-9 iridoid glycosides, Picroside I and Kutakoside.

Conservation
In 1997, kutki was listed in appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). This listing resulted ultimately from a request by the Indian government. Overharvesting of the wild species for use as medicine was cited as the main reason for the listing. The species not widely cultivated, though this has been discussed as a potential way to preserve wild stands, especially since the Dunagiri Foundation Trust has created, implemented, and successfully employed protocols to generate export-quality organic ethical 'Dunagiri Certified' Kutki since 2014. The International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List did not have a listing for this species as of 2014. Picrorhiza scrophulariiflora appears to be used heavily as a substitute for P. kurroa and is considered non-threatened by CITES.

Usage
The rhizome has a long history of use in Indian Ayurvedic medicine for the treatment of digestive problems. Other uses have been proposed (e.g. for asthma, liver damage, wound healing, vitiligo), but the medical evidence is not yet conclusive. It appears to be relatively safe based on its long history of traditional use. Kutki has hepato-protective properties and thus supports the liver and spleen. It is used in all forms of liver damage, cirrhosis, and inflammation of the liver. It protects the liver against damage from the hepatitis C virus.

Ugh! I left Wikibooks for such a long time!! I'm back now. Sorry to everyone who left a message on the talk page. -- Mkn 17:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Japanese
I'm not sure how to write the lessons for this wikibook so I'm still figuring out which method is best for constructing the lessons. I would like to make the lessons become instantly practical, something the reader can put into use right away.

At the moment, I'm consulting different materials such as textbooks, audio, and video. Some of the lessons might be too close to the actual material so I'm going to try fiddling around with the lessons for a bit and try to figure out what's a good structure and format to use for the basic lessons.

I've noticed that there is still a demand for romaji in the wikibooks, so probably it would be best to have it in the beginner's section.

A. Alisaffi

A. Alisaffi was a stamp dealer and forger from Istanbul known for his reproductions of the Small and Large Hermes Head stamps of Greece. Material produced by Alisaffi was included on the representative album of forgeries prepared by the Union Philatelique de Genève after François Fournier's death in 1927.

Career
Alisaffi was operating in Paris in 1902 when he produced by a photolithographic process reproductions of the small and large Hermes Head stamps of Greece. The stamps were sold as genuine or as reprints but when Alisaffi tried to sell them in Athens he was reported to the police by a stamp dealer. He subsequently received a permit allowing him to sell the stamps as they were without gum and no longer the current issues of Greece. The permit allowed him to sell a large quantity of stamps and over 30 different types are known, including imitations of both the Paris and Athens prints.

He collaborated with the forger François Fournier, who started his business in Geneva in 1903, and Alisaffi's reproductions were sold by Fournier and found in the representative album of Fournier forgeries prepared by the Union Philatelique de Genève after Fournier's death in 1927.

The forgeries are well known to specialists in Greek philately and were amongst those discussed in the work of Walter Dorning Beckton.
