NODE+ (wireless sensor platform) is a first-generation handheld sensor measuring 1 inch in diameter and 3.75 inches wide that communicates wirelessly through low-energy Bluetooth 4.0 with Apple iOS devices. NODE+ has been attributed in the media as a “Swiss Army knife of sensors,” similar in appearance to the “tricorder from Star Trek,” and as a “powerhouse of quality sensors” that can “measure anything.” In September 2014, 16 interchangeable sensor modules were available for purchase that can detect color, gases, ambient temperature, barometric pressure, motion, surface temperature and other qualities. Mobile applications that display the data transmitted by the NODE can be developed through an open application programming interface (API), although mobile app developers must obtain a commercial license from Variable Inc. prior to selling a mobile app that uses Node+ sensors for commercial purposes. Node+ is available in educational settings through a partnership with Vernier Software & Technology. NODE+ is being sold for use in classrooms and educational institutions. NODE+ is also being used to support a variety of academic research studies. Additionally, NODE+ is being used as a platform to help industries worldwide develop Internet of Things (IoT) strategies. NODE+ is manufactured in the United States of America.

The Royal College of Elizabeth, formerly the Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School and better known as Elizabeth College, is an independent day school for boys in Saint Peter Port, Guernsey. One of the earliest members of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference (HMC), it is a public school in the British sense of the term. Founded on 25 May 1563 by royal charter from Queen Elizabeth I in order that students would go on to preach as clergymen in local churches according to the principles of the Protestant Reformation, the school is one of the oldest public schools in the British Isles, and the oldest in the Channel Islands. Upper Canada College, in Toronto, Ontario, was founded in 1829 by Sir John Colborne, based on the school. In the two and a half centuries after its foundation, the school was often poorly-run with a number of principals being either dismissed or resigning following disputes with the local authorities, causing the Lieutenant Governor of Guernsey, Sir John Colborne, to establish a committee to perform a full review of the school. The school was subsequently re-chartered in 1824, with new staff and an improved curriculum to attract fee-paying pupils from England in place two years later. Its current main building was completed in 1829, on the same grounds as the original school, overlooking the town and harbour of Saint Peter Port. During the German occupation of the Channel Islands, the school was evacuated to Great Hucklow, Derbyshire, where it spent five years 'in exile'. Having been a boarding school since its foundation, the gradual decline in the number of children being sent to the island to board meant the school became a day school in 1996 when the boarding houses were closed and converted into what would eventually become the junior school. The upper school has about 500 boys aged 11 to 18, and provides a coeducational sixth form in partnership with the nearby Ladies' College. There is an associated coeducational junior school for ages 2½ to 11 at the nearby Acorn House in King's Road (pre-school) and Beechwood (primary) in Queen's Road. One of three independent schools on the island, the school is a member of the Three Colleges Group, along with the Ladies' College and Blanchelande. As a selective school, prospective pupils must pass an entrance exam to be offered a place, although the school accepts pupils from a wide ability range. The school charges £4,155 per term, with three terms per academic year, as of 2019/2020. States of Guernsey statutes concerning funding toward the school date back as far as 1826; however, from September 2019 onwards the States will no longer fund scholarship places to the school and funding will be reduced by 50% over the next seven years. Value-added statistics place Elizabeth College in the top 17% of British schools. The alumni of the school are known as Old Elizabethans; since 1824 they have each been allocated a unique, sequential school number. Among these alumni are an Olympic gold medallist, several Bailiffs of Guernsey as well as a number of notable persons in various fields including the arts, sports and academia. Noted for preparing boys for entry into the army and naval colleges in the United Kingdom, the school has also produced four Victoria Cross recipients. The school has also been very successful in rifle shooting, and several alumni have gone on to compete at international level.

It is a 1986 horror novel by American author Stephen King. It was his 22nd book, and his 17th novel written under his own name. The story follows the experiences of seven children as they are terrorized by an evil entity that exploits the fears of its victims to disguise itself while hunting its prey. "It" primarily appears in the form of Pennywise the Dancing Clown to attract its preferred prey of young children. The novel is told through narratives alternating between two periods and is largely told in the third-person omniscient mode. It deals with themes that eventually became King staples: the power of memory, childhood trauma and its recurrent echoes in adulthood and overcoming evil through mutual trust and sacrifice. King has stated that he first conceived the story in 1978, and began writing it in 1981. He finished writing the book in 1985. He also stated that he originally wanted the title character to be a troll like the one in the children's story "Three Billy Goats Gruff", but who inhabited the local sewer system rather than just the area beneath one bridge. He also wanted the story to interweave the stories of children and the adults they later become. The novel won the British Fantasy Award in 1987, and received nominations for the Locus and World Fantasy Awards that same year. Publishers Weekly listed It as the best-selling hardcover fiction book in the United States in 1986. It has been adapted into a 1990 two-part miniseries directed by Tommy Lee Wallace, a 1998 television series directed by Glen Baretto & Ankush Mohla, and into a film duology directed by Andy Muschietti; It was released in September 2017 and It Chapter Two was released in September 2019.

This is a list of the tallest buildings in British Columbia that ranks skyscrapers and high-rise buildings in the province of British Columbia, Canada, by height. Buildings in six cities are included in this list; Vancouver, Burnaby, Coquitlam, New Westminster, Surrey, and Kelowna, each having buildings taller than 100 meters. The tallest building in the province is the 62-storey, 201-metre-tall (659 ft), Living Shangri-La located in Vancouver. In Vancouver, municipal regulations forbid any building from exceeding 200 meters (656 ft) in height above mean sea level in order to preserve sight lines out toward the Pacific Ranges. The maximum limit is currently attained by Living Shangri-La. Despite this, Vancouver has more high-rise buildings per capita than most North American metropolitan centres with populations exceeding 1,000,000. Vancouver's population density is the 4th-highest in North America and the city has more residential high-rises per capita than any other city on the continent. In Burnaby, municipal regulations do not limit building height, so long as the overall density of an area is within the city's limits.

George VI (Albert Frederick Arthur George; 14 December 1895 – 6 February 1952) was King of the United Kingdom and the Dominions of the British Commonwealth from 11 December 1936 until his death on 6 February 1952. He became known as a symbol of British determination to win the Second World War against Germany. Known as "Bertie" among his family and close friends, George VI was born in the reign of his great-grandmother Queen Victoria, and was named after his great-grandfather Albert, Prince Consort. As the second son of King George V, he was not expected to inherit the throne, and spent his early life in the shadow of his elder brother, Edward. He attended naval college as a teenager, and served in the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force during the First World War. In 1920, he was made Duke of York. He married Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon in 1923 and they had two daughters, Elizabeth and Margaret. In the mid-1920s, he had speech therapy for a stammer, which he never fully overcame. George's elder brother ascended the throne as Edward VIII upon the death of their father in 1936. However, Edward was forced to choose between the crown and marriage to divorced American socialite Wallis Simpson. With the abdication of Edward to marry Simpson, George ascended the throne as the third monarch of the House of Windsor. From 1939, the British Empire and Commonwealth – except Ireland – declared war on Nazi Germany. War with the Kingdom of Italy and the Empire of Japan followed in 1940 and 1941, respectively. The king and his family remained in London during the Blitz and his popularity soared as he shared the hardships of the common people. Britain and its allies were victorious in 1945, but the British Empire declined. Ireland had largely broken away, followed by independence of India and Pakistan in 1947. George relinquished the title of Emperor of India in June 1948 and instead adopted the new title of Head of the Commonwealth. He was beset by smoking-related health problems in the later years of his reign. On his death, he was succeeded by his daughter, Elizabeth II.

Musselburgh and Fisherrow Co-operative Society Limited (M&F Co-op) was a retail consumer co-operative trading in Musselburgh and Dalkeith, in East Lothian, Scotland. It was founded as a co-operative in 1862, and, in 2007, joined the small number of UK co-operative retailers to demutualize.

Invisibility is the state of an object that cannot be seen. An object in this state is said to be invisible (literally, "not visible"). The term is often used in fantasy/science fiction, where objects cannot be seen by magical or technological means; however, its effects can also be demonstrated in the real world, particularly in physics and perceptual psychology classes. Since objects can be seen by light in the visible spectrum from a source reflecting off their surfaces and hitting the viewer's eye, the most natural form of invisibility (whether real or fictional) is an object that neither reflects nor absorbs light (that is, it allows light to pass through it). This is known as transparency, and is seen in many naturally occurring materials (although no naturally occurring material is 100% transparent). Invisibility perception depends on several optical and visual factors. For example, invisibility depends on the eyes of the observer and/or the instruments used. Thus an object can be classified as "invisible to" a person, animal, instrument, etc. In research on sensorial perception it has been shown that invisibility is perceived in cycles. Invisibility is often considered to be the supreme form of camouflage, as it does not reveal to the viewer any kind of vital signs, visual effects, or any frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum detectable to the human eye, instead making use of radio, infrared or ultraviolet wavelengths. In illusion optics, invisibility is a special case of illusion effects: the illusion of free space.

Dorothy Bulstrode (1592-1650), Courtier to Anne of Denmark. Dorothy Bulstrode, or Boulstred, was a lady in waiting to Anne of Denmark, and a younger sister of Cecily Bulstrode the subject of poems by Ben Jonson and John Donne. She was the youngest of six daughters of Edward Bulstrode (d. 1598) of Hedgerley, Buckinghamshire, and Cecill Croke who married in London on 28 May 1571 at St Dunstan-in-the-West. The names of her siblings are recorded on her father's tomb at St Laurence's Church, Upton-cum-Chalvey.

Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan ibn al-Hakam (Arabic: عبد الملك ابن مروان ابن الحكم‎, romanized: ʿAbd al-Malik ibn Marwān ibn al-Ḥakam; June/July 646 – 9 October 705) was the fifth Umayyad caliph, ruling from April 685 until his death. A member of the first generation of born Muslims, his early life in Medina was occupied with pious pursuits. He held administrative and military posts under Caliph Mu'awiya I (r. 661–680), founder of the Umayyad Caliphate, and his own father, Caliph Marwan I (r. 684–685). By the time of Abd al-Malik's accession, Umayyad authority had collapsed across the Caliphate as a result of the Second Muslim Civil War and had been reconstituted in Syria and Egypt during his father's reign. Following a failed invasion of Iraq in 686, Abd al-Malik focused on securing Syria before making further attempts to conquer the greater part of the Caliphate from his principal rival, the Mecca-based caliph Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr. To that end, he concluded an unfavorable truce with the reinvigorated Byzantine Empire in 689, quashed a coup attempt in Damascus by his kinsman, al-Ashdaq, the following year, and reincorporated into the army the rebellious Qaysi tribes of the Jazira (Upper Mesopotamia) in 691. He then conquered Zubayrid Iraq and dispatched his general, al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf, to Mecca where he killed Ibn al-Zubayr in late 692, thereby reuniting the Caliphate under Abd al-Malik's rule. The war with Byzantium resumed, resulting in Umayyad advances into Anatolia and Armenia, the destruction of Carthage and the recapture of Kairouan, the launchpad for the later conquests of western North Africa and the Iberian Peninsula, in 698. In the east, Abd al-Malik's viceroy, al-Hajjaj, firmly established the caliph's authority in Iraq and Khurasan, stamping out opposition by the Kharijites and the Arab tribal nobility by 702. Abd al-Malik's final years were marked by a domestically peaceful and prosperous consolidation of power. In a significant departure from his predecessors, rule over the Caliphate's provinces was centralized under Abd al-Malik, following the elimination of his rivals. Gradually, loyalist Arab troops from Syria were tasked with maintaining order in the provinces as dependence on less reliable, local Arab garrisons receded. Tax surpluses from the provinces were forwarded to Damascus and the traditional military stipends to veterans of the early Muslim conquests and their descendants were abolished, salaries being restricted to those in active service. The most consequential of Abd al-Malik's reforms were the introduction of a single Islamic currency in place of Byzantine and Sasanian coinage and the establishment of Arabic as the language of the bureaucracy in place of Greek and Persian in Syria and Iraq, respectively. His Muslim upbringing, the conflicts with external and local Christian forces and rival claimants to Islamic leadership all influenced Abd al-Malik's efforts to proscribe a distinctly Islamic character to the Umayyad state. Another manifestation of this initiative was his founding of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, the earliest archaeologically attested religious monument built by a Muslim ruler and the possessor of the earliest epigraphic proclamations of Islam and the prophet Muhammad. The foundations established by Abd al-Malik enabled his son and successor, al-Walid I (r. 705–715), who largely maintained his father's policies, to oversee the Umayyad Caliphate's territorial and economic zenith. Abd al-Malik's centralized government became the prototype of later medieval Muslim states.

"I'm with Cupid" is the fourteenth episode of The Simpsons' tenth season. It first aired on the Fox network in the United States on Valentine's Day, 1999. The episode takes place on Valentine's Day, and the wives of Springfield are jealous of the attention Apu gives to his wife Manjula. Angered by this, the Springfield husbands spy on Apu to sabotage his romantic plans. "I'm with Cupid" was written by Dan Greaney and directed by Bob Anderson. Because the episode was to air on Valentine's Day, Fox wanted the episode to relate to the holiday, although the idea for the episode was pitched by Greaney. The title of the episode is based on the popular T-shirt slogan "I'm with stupid". Elton John guest-starred as himself, and recorded a new version of his song "Your Song" for the episode. The episode also features references to Breakfast at Tiffany's, Tiffany & Co. and "Lisa the Vegetarian", an earlier episode in the series. In its original broadcast, "I'm With Cupid" was seen by approximately 7.7 million viewers and finished in 48th place in the ratings the week it aired. Following the home media release of The Simpsons: The Complete Tenth Season, the episode received generally positive reviews from critics.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a mental disorder of the neurodevelopmental type. It is characterized by difficulty paying attention, excessive activity and acting without regards to consequences, which are otherwise not appropriate for a person's age. There are also often problems with regulating emotions. The symptoms appear before a person is twelve years old, are present for more than six months, and cause problems in at least two settings (such as school, home, or recreational activities). In children, problems paying attention may result in poor school performance. Additionally there is an association with other mental disorders and substance misuse. Although it causes impairment, particularly in modern society, many people with ADHD can have sustained attention for tasks they find interesting or rewarding (known as hyperfocus). Despite being the most commonly studied and diagnosed mental disorder in children and adolescents, the exact cause is unknown in the majority of cases. Genetic factors are estimated to make up about 75% of the risk. Nicotine exposure during pregnancy may be an environmental risk. It does not appear to be related to the style of parenting or discipline. It affects about 5–7% of children when diagnosed via the DSM-IV criteria and 1–2% when diagnosed via the ICD-10 criteria. As of 2015 it is estimated to affect about 51.1 million people globally. Rates are similar between countries and depend mostly on how it is diagnosed. ADHD is diagnosed approximately two times more often in boys than in girls, although the disorder is often overlooked in girls because their symptoms differ from those of boys. About 30–50% of people diagnosed in childhood continue to have symptoms into adulthood and between 2–5% of adults have the condition. In adults inner restlessness rather than hyperactivity may occur. They often develop coping skills which make up for some or all of their impairments. The condition can be difficult to tell apart from other conditions, as well as to distinguish from high levels of activity that are still within the range of normative behaviors. ADHD management recommendations vary by country and usually involve some combination of counseling, lifestyle changes, and medications. The British guideline only recommends medications as a first-line treatment in children who have severe symptoms and for medication to be considered in those with moderate symptoms who either refuse or fail to improve with counseling, though for adults medications are a first-line treatment. Canadian and American guidelines recommend that medications and behavioral therapy be used together as a first-line therapy, except in preschool-aged children. Stimulant medication therapy is not recommended as a first-line therapy in preschool-aged children in either guideline. Treatment with stimulants is effective for at least 14 months; however, their long-term effectiveness is unclear and there are potentially serious side effects. The medical literature has described symptoms similar to those of ADHD since the 18th century. ADHD, its diagnosis, and its treatment have been considered controversial since the 1970s. The controversies have involved clinicians, teachers, policymakers, parents, and the media. Topics include ADHD's causes and the use of stimulant medications in its treatment. Most healthcare providers accept ADHD as a genuine disorder in children and adults, and the debate in the scientific community mainly centers on how it is diagnosed and treated. The condition was officially known as attention-deficit disorder (ADD) from 1980 to 1987, while before this it was known as hyperkinetic reaction of childhood.

Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam ( (); 15 October 1931 – 27 July 2015) was an aerospace scientist who served as the 11th President of India from 2002 to 2007. He was born and raised in Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu and studied physics and aerospace engineering. He spent the next four decades as a scientist and science administrator, mainly at the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and was intimately involved in India's civilian space programme and military missile development efforts. He thus came to be known as the Missile Man of India for his work on the development of ballistic missile and launch vehicle technology. He also played a pivotal organisational, technical, and political role in India's Pokhran-II nuclear tests in 1998, the first since the original nuclear test by India in 1974. Kalam was elected as the 11th President of India in 2002 with the support of both the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party and the then-opposition Indian National Congress. Widely referred to as the "People's President", he returned to his civilian life of education, writing and public service after a single term. He was a recipient of several prestigious awards, including the Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian honour. While delivering a lecture at the Indian Institute of Management Shillong, Kalam collapsed and died from an apparent cardiac arrest on 27 July 2015, aged 83. Thousands including national-level dignitaries attended the funeral ceremony held in his hometown of Rameshwaram, where he was buried with full state honours.

Nanoeconomics is defined as the post-analytic discourse, economic theory and post-normal transdisciplinary science of molar(ized) single transactions (transaction granules or threads), non-conservative choice and innovative behavior of economic agents/decision-makers in quantum-inspired formalization. Whereas in microeconomics analysis is performed on the level of individual firms or decision-makers (economic agents) who take decisions and act vis-a-vis their markets which are abstracted aggregations of many players, in nanoeconomics analysis is performed on the level of individual transactions, incl. their lifecycles with concurrent choice segments, which are considered and carried out by individual firms or decision-makers who take those respective decisions and act vis-a-vis other single players as their counter-agents, not aggregated as/into markets. So on the one hand nanoeconomics lies at one level below that of microeconomics, on the other hand it runs a one-to-many or multi-binary scheme of interactions versus that of microeconomics which features unary though abstracted model of interaction. While microeconomics is linear, nanoeconomics is thus non-linear. Nanoeconomics is oriented on such ad hoc, temporary (non-persistent or transient) networks of interactions centered around transaction threads/fibers with lifecycles (incl. knowledge) rather than transactions as one-time events (with contracts being the non-concurrent subclass of threads). Thereby transaction threads are not totally empirical but also notional. A set of one-to-many threads add up to a many-to-many (sub)industry granule in the empirical-notional space or manifold of an industry. This difference and departure from classical microeconomics also have implications as for transaction cost analysis as well as possibly in terms of inframarginal positive externalities (bystanders' surplus). The term was first proposed by Kenneth J. Arrow in 1987. Nanoeconomics can be thought of as input-output economics but augmented with one more dimension - the dimension of separable spec value ranges cut into quantized/discretized intervals or value granulations, thus forming interval preference vectors or functions of use values and the respective space. In this space (formulation) the problem of economic surplus value is solved by performing narrow banding or precision intervalling operations over that space to harness the frugalities or sparing effect from interval-concatenated cost/price syndication for a given cohort of economic (counter)agents with partially heterogeneous supplies/demands. One can discriminate between post-normal science featuring coherence in structure and arguments and multidisciplinary consilience, on one side, and fringe science, on the other. Nanoeconomics draws on sciences and disciplines as varying as econophysics, thermoeconomics, ecological economics, affective science, complexity economics, non-equilibrium thermodynamics (synergetics), biosemiotics, decision science, neuroeconomics / picoeconomics, , design science, complex networks and graph theory, complexity and information theories, etc. It combines hard science and soft science perspectives, approaches and models. Nanoeconomics problematizes sustainable innovation, novelty-making and broadly authenticity production. A possible strategy currently under investigation is stimulation of divergent selection on both individual human and textual/molar actant (see below) levels. Nanoeconomics is largely a normative science informed by ecocentric system of values and covers at least partially ententional development and allocation of embodied natural resources (virtual environmental factors) such as virtual water. Among its goals are ecological dematerialization, economic demerchandization, trade decommoditization, industrial dehomogenization. Nanoeconomics offers a non-price mechanism alternative to green economy/growth. Nanoeconomics follows the mode of thinking of Informational Structural Realism. Overall, abstraction or discursive virtualization is part of nanoeconomic methodology and conceptualizations. In particular, the paradigm of granular information processing underlies the general method of nanoeconomic analysis. Implementation of non-conservativity or innovativeness is arranged at the level of B2B trade, where the system of interactions is closed and modeled as differential games. Quantum-inspired analysis of differential games suggests a non-Newtonian characterization of intelligent agents as self-supervising and their behavior as entangled, demonstrating emergence of randomness/novelty (self-generated stochasticity) and providing for use of information force in human factor-based decision-making. A major pillar of nanoeconomics is the science of diversity, inc. multi-way metric of diversity as the generalization of hyperconvexity. The virtual units of analysis at the cultural or eco-downstream plane of nanoeconomics (as distinguished from natural or eco-upstream plane) is 'text particles/granules' of multi-specification (multi-attribute), multipartite and multi-lifecycle product SKU portfolios and clusters (represented by graphs/complex networks), which have bound structural information content as the encoded correlate of a product's local embedded contextual or ambient expressivity from affective choice perspective of the consumer or shopper. Text particles can be conceived as local partitions or communities in the text graph that usually (roughly) have the structure of hypertree with hyperedges of homologous convariant product items (SKUs) normally with power law distributions. Thereby those nano-particles (nanoeconomic granules) are frictional among themselves and conformational in change as well as behaving as colloid particles (their dispersion conditions as to irreversible/lyophobic/suspensoid versus reversible/lyophilic/emulsoid are yet to be established). Also they qualify as L-particles. The latter are characterized with a non-conservative mechanism of quantum potential or information force (nonlocal energy). From it arises randomness and emerges novelty by violation of the 2nd law of thermodynamics thus working toward the aforementioned and below-mentioned normative goals of nanoeconomics of fostering innovativeness and eco-economic decoupling. These nanoeconomic granules also have qualities of (quasi)hyperobjects. The function of these local granule texts is to deliver surprisal to the consumer/shopper and one of the tasks of nanoeconomic engineering is to maximize that surprisal subject to constraints of the global portfolio and other strategy, business and commercial constraints. Thereby consumer demand is modeled as molarized survival process being the (bi)dual of the merono-taxonomic matrix of heavy-tailed product text (substrate), using such objective (non-informative) priors and pursuant to the principle of insufficient reason. Nanoeconomics is defined separately for B2B/industrial space and B2C/consumer product space: in the former the key quasi-resource is embodied (bound) physical/natural eco-exergy and in the latter it is embodied (bound) virtual/social (eco-)exergy. This formulation parallels Karl Polanyi's substantive definition of economics. The foregoing and following coverage concerns B2B. The substrate in both cases is embodied complexity or bound structural information (incl. microdiversity) of either products or product portfolios for products with naturally and/or technologically varying spec values (making batches and lots non-fungible) and for products with no relevant variation within specs or attributes, respectively. However, in B2C, while the substrate is likewise complexity or information content, it is however taken in the virtual - strictly post-positivist - domain. Namely, consumer products and services allow and suggest representation or presentation in terms of sparse multi-dimensional (multi-component) conceptual-linguistic holons much in the fashion of 4th-order cybernetics. These are akin to the concept of product brand names and stories (in particular, as taken into promotions of whatever kinds), whereby the latter are matched and mapped dyadically (binary-relationally) against consumer or shopper archetypes (or personas). This is in line with normative flavor of nanoeconomics calling for qualitative (incl. narrative) individualization of consumers and shoppers while at the same time delivering against another of its mission or purpose, decommoditization as well as dematerialization (see above). As for the global texts of product portfolios or clusters with heterogeneous constitution, they behave or act as semiotically self-referential, quantum-like amorphous computers/media supplying abduction power for innovation. Those abstract text machines have complex network motifs and themes/modules making them susceptible to discretization for allagmatic brand identity/idiom and evolutionary computation. Those global texts evolve in punctuated patterns toward increasing complexity measured for example by self-dissimilarity in conjunction with biological degeneracy (as a measure or predictor of adaptive innovativeness or robust evolvability). These global text graphs represent the econophysical 'genetics' of a downstream/B2C company and 'genomics' of an industry/market. The punctuated evolution of portfolio/cluster graphs in eco-economic fitness landscapes have embodied virtual exergy (microdiversity) as its dynamic ecosemiotic orientor as a Lagrangian consisting of local information contents (topological) and global graph energy (spectral) and flows under inertial/rhizomatic/holonomic/conservative recombinant crossover (exploitation, aromorphosis/growth, assimilation) and tangential/frictional/arborescent/non-holonomic/dissipative/symmetry-breaking mutation (exploration, allomorphosis/differentiation, accommodation) operators whereby the embodied virtual exergy is built up in quantitative expansion and consumed in qualitative/phase shifts. Nanoeconomic particles induce, by way of conjugation, laminarity in consumer choice, hence the nanoscopic scale of discourse and analysis with its quantum effects ('surface area effects'), incl. high viscosity and fluctuational reversibility. On a known level of abstraction these product portfolio/cluster texts are assumed to be surfaces of respective commercial entities/identities (e.g. differentiated product assortment carrying brands) allowing further to harness the holographic principle to informationally completely characterize, model and analyze nanoeconomic subjects, dynamics and evolution by such supervenience, where the underlying structures may resemble or be akin to algebraic holography. Those texts usually have power law distribution which is the basis of many applications of nanoeconomics such as crisis (as a subclass of qualitative phase shift) prediction, resilience and robustness planning and risk management for product/SKU portfolio-carrying brands. Nanoeconomics aspires to attain post-scarcity or abundance economy, which is contrasted with steady-state economy and degrowth. Current research in nanoeconomics tries to take it even further and leverage quantum-like discord as nanoeconomic resource in the macro-world to design for and achieve post-scarcity through eco-economic decoupling and development of regenerative environments. On the natural or eco-upstream stage the nanoeconomic operation is tasked to perform quantized recovery of default bound micro-diversity (embodied information, or external reference-free or intensive exergy or composition-dependent or non-flow or eco-exergy but defined in terms of physical and other phenomenal diversities embodied in natural materials rather than genetic diversities in biomass) of eco-upstream (natural) products of natural capital by calculational mining of nanoeconomic surplus value ('eco-margin') and its valorisation (further to be loosely conceived of as fractal reformulation of the notion of circular economy with hyperconvex 'upcycling' of spec values for composite-quantile pricing and exergy utilization maximization). Such embodied eco-exergy is considered as the ultra-renewable resource in nanoeconomics. On the cultural or virtual plane or eco-downstream stage nanoeconomics tries to accomplish engineered ecomimetic re-institution of similar micro-diversity in virtual texts of eco-downstream (technological) products as emulated imputation of natural bound micro-diversity in the latter realm of products. The latter are characterized then with virtual exergy, virtual emergy, etc. as eco-evolutionary orientors as well as qualitative (crisis) predictors in business/brand competitiveness and strategy. The term has also been used to describe a level of analysis below traditional microeconomics, and to describe the economics of nanotechnology.

The NanoRacks CubeSat Deployer (NRCSD) is a device to deploy CubeSats into orbit from the International Space Station. Currently, there are two CubeSat deployers on board the International Space Station (ISS): The Japanese Experiment Module (JEM) Small Satellite Orbital Deployer (J-SSOD) and the NanoRacks CubeSat Deployer (NRCSD). The J-SSOD is the first of its kind to deploy small satellites from the International Space Station. The NRCSD is the first commercially operated small satellite deployer from the ISS, maximizing full capabilities of each airlock cycle of deployments. CubeSats belong to a class of research spacecraft called nanosatellites. The basic cube-shaped satellites measure 10 centimeters (3.9 in) on each side, weigh less than 3 pounds (1.4 kg), and have a volume of about 1 liter (0.22 imp gal; 0.26 U.S. gal), although CubeSats are built, and deployed, that are multiples of 10 cm in length. As of 2014, one method of getting CubeSats to orbit is to transport them aboard a larger spacecraft as part of a cargo load to a larger space station. When this is done, deploying the CubeSats into orbit as a separate artificial satellite requires a special apparatus, such as the NanoRacks CubeSat Deployer. The NRCSD is put into position to be grabbed by one of the ISS's robotic arms, which then places the CubeSat deployer into the correct position externally mounted to the ISS to be able to release the miniature satellites into proper orbit.

In linguistics, pre-stopping, also known as pre-occlusion or pre-plosion, is a phonological process involving the historical or allophonic insertion of a very short stop consonant before a sonorant, such as a short [d] before a nasal [n] or a lateral [l]. The resulting sounds ([ᵈn, ᵈl]) are called pre-stopped consonants, or sometimes pre-ploded or (in Celtic linguistics) pre-occluded consonants, although technically [n] may be considered an occlusive/stop without the pre-occlusion. A pre-stopped consonant behaves phonologically as a single consonant. That is, like affricates and trilled affricates, the reasons for considering these sequences to be single consonants lies primarily in their behavior. Phonetically they are similar or equivalent to stops with a nasal or lateral release.

The glass sea creatures (alternately called the Blaschka sea creatures, glass marine invertebrates, and Blaschka invertebrate models) are works of glass artists Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka. The artistic predecessors of the Glass Flowers, the sea creatures were the output of the Blaschkas' successful mail-order business of supplying museums and private collectors around the world with sets of glass models of marine invertebrates. Between 1863 and 1880, the Blaschkas – working in Dresden – executed at least 10,000 of these highly detailed glass models, representing some 700 different species.

The European Union (EU) is a political and economic union of 28 member states that are located primarily in Europe. Its members have a combined area of 4,475,757 km2 (1,728,099 sq mi) and an estimated total population of about 513 million. The EU has developed an internal single market through a standardised system of laws that apply in all member states in those matters, and only those matters, where members have agreed to act as one. EU policies aim to ensure the free movement of people, goods, services and capital within the internal market, enact legislation in justice and home affairs and maintain common policies on trade, agriculture, fisheries and regional development. For travel within the Schengen Area, passport controls have been abolished. A monetary union was established in 1999 and came into full force in 2002 and is composed of 19 EU member states which use the euro currency. The EU and European citizenship were established when the Maastricht Treaty came into force in 1993. The EU traces its origins to the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) and the European Economic Community (EEC), established, respectively, by the 1951 Treaty of Paris and 1957 Treaty of Rome. The original members of what came to be known as the European Communities were the Inner Six: Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and West Germany. The Communities and their successors have grown in size by the accession of new member states and in power by the addition of policy areas to their remit. The latest major amendment to the constitutional basis of the EU, the Treaty of Lisbon, came into force in 2009. No member state has left the EU or its antecedent organisations (Greenland, an autonomous territory within Denmark, left the Communities in 1985). However, the United Kingdom signified its intention to leave after a membership referendum in June 2016 and is negotiating its withdrawal. Containing 7.3% of the world population, the EU in 2017 generated a nominal gross domestic product (GDP) of 19.670 trillion US dollars, constituting approximately 24.6% of global nominal GDP. Additionally, all 28 EU countries have a very high Human Development Index, according to the United Nations Development Programme. In 2012, the EU was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Through the Common Foreign and Security Policy, the EU has developed a role in external relations and defence. The union maintains permanent diplomatic missions throughout the world and represents itself at the United Nations, the World Trade Organization, the G7 and the G20. Because of its global influence, the European Union was described in 2006 as an emerging superpower.

A diagnosis of myocardial infarction is created by integrating the history of the presenting illness and physical examination with electrocardiogram findings and cardiac markers (blood tests for heart muscle cell damage). A coronary angiogram allows visualization of narrowings or obstructions on the heart vessels, and therapeutic measures can follow immediately. At autopsy, a pathologist can diagnose a myocardial infarction based on anatomopathological findings.

An air gun (or airgun) is any kind of gun that launches projectiles pneumatically with compressed air or other gases that are pressurized mechanically without involving any chemical reactions, in contrast to a firearm, which pressurizes gases chemically via an exothermic oxidation (deflagration) of combustible propellants which generates propulsive energy by breaking molecular bonds. Both the long gun and handgun forms (air rifle and air pistol) typically propel metallic projectiles that are either diabolo-shaped pellets or spherical shots called BBs. Certain types of air guns (usually rifles) may also propel darts or arrows.

Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan ibn al-Hakam (Arabic: عبد الملك ابن مروان ابن الحكم‎, romanized: ʿAbd al-Malik ibn Marwān ibn al-Ḥakam; June/July 646 – 9 October 705) was the fifth Umayyad caliph, ruling from April 685 until his death. A member of the first generation of born Muslims, his early life in Medina was occupied with pious pursuits. He held administrative and military posts under Caliph Mu'awiya I (r. 661–680), founder of the Umayyad Caliphate, and his own father, Caliph Marwan I (r. 684–685). By the time of Abd al-Malik's accession, Umayyad authority had collapsed across the Caliphate as a result of the Second Muslim Civil War and had been reconstituted in Syria and Egypt during his father's reign.

Music Boulevard

Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam

Music Boulevard, or musicblvd.com, was a retail music information and sales website founded in 1995 by Telebase Systems. In 1997, the Music Boulevard website, operated by N2K, became among the first websites to offer piracy-protected music singles for direct download. The website used Liquid Audio's single-delivery system. Originally associated with Telebase Systems and its president Jim Coane, who was the CEO of the company, MusicBlvd went public in October 1997. The website offered more than 300,000 music titles and generated more than 80 million views in its first quarter. In 1998 Music Boulevard was described by The Boston Globe as one of the "big three" online music sellers alongside CDNow and Amazon.com, and it was lauded for its extras including artist biographies, reviews, and feature stories from national music publications. By 1999, the company was ranked 9th among all electronic commerce sites, with around 2.7 million visitors in the month of December alone.

Invisibility is the state of an object that cannot be seen. An object in this state is said to be invisible (literally, "not visible"). The term is often used in fantasy/science fiction, where objects cannot be seen by magical or technological means; however, its effects can also be demonstrated in the real world, particularly in physics and perceptual psychology classes. In illusion optics, invisibility is a special case of illusion effects: the illusion of free space.

The public domain consists of all the creative work to which no exclusive intellectual property rights apply. Those rights may have expired, been forfeited, expressly waived, or may be inapplicable. The works of William Shakespeare and Ludwig van Beethoven, and most early silent films, are in the public domain either by virtue of their having been created before copyright existed, or by their copyright term having expired. Some works are not covered by copyright, and are therefore in the public domain—among them the formulae of Newtonian physics, cooking recipes, and all computer software created prior to 1974. Other works are actively dedicated by their authors to the public domain (see waiver); some examples include reference implementations of cryptographic algorithms, the image-process

A diagnosis of myocardial infarction is created by integrating the history of the presenting illness and physical examination with electrocardiogram findings and cardiac markers (blood tests for heart muscle cell damage). A coronary angiogram allows visualization of narrowings or obstructions on the heart vessels, and therapeutic measures can follow immediately. At autopsy, a pathologist can diagnose a myocardial infarction based on anatomopathological findings. A chest radiograph and routine blood tests may indicate complications or precipitating causes and are often performed upon arrival to an emergency department. New regional wall motion abnormalities on an echocardiogram are also suggestive of a myocardial infarction. Echo may be performed in equivocal cases by the on-call cardiologist. In stable patients whose symptoms have resolved by the time of evaluation, Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi (i.e. a "MIBI scan"), thallium-201 chloride or Rubidium-82 Chloride can be used in nuclear medicine to visualize areas of reduced blood flow in conjunction with physiologic or pharmocologic stress. Thallium may also be used to determine viability of tissue, distinguishing whether non-functional myocardium is actually dead or merely in a state of hibernation or of being stunned.

"Curious" is a song by American singer-songwriter Hayley Kiyoko from her debut studio album Expectations (2018). It was released as the album's third single on January 11, 2018. Kiyoko co-wrote "Curious" with Lisa Vitale, Brandon Colbein, Jakob Hazell and Svante Halldin, while Jack & Coke (Halldin and Hazell) produced it. A dance-pop and R&B track, the song details Kiyoko confronting an ex-girlfriend, who she believes is dating a man to mask her true feelings for Kiyoko. Its title adopts "curious", a term used within the LGBT community to express same-sex experimentation, into a double entendre as Kiyoko demands the truth about the seriousness of her love interest's new relationship.

In the history of artificial intelligence, an AI winter is a period of reduced funding and interest in artificial intelligence research. The term was coined by analogy to the idea of a nuclear winter. The field has experienced several hype cycles, followed by disappointment and criticism, followed by funding cuts, followed by renewed interest years or decades later. The term first appeared in 1984 as the topic of a public debate at the annual meeting of AAAI (then called the "American Association of Artificial Intelligence"). It is a chain reaction that begins with pessimism in the AI community, followed by pessimism in the press, followed by a severe cutback in funding, followed by the end of serious research. At the meeting, Roger Schank and Marvin Minsky—two leading AI researchers who had survived the "winter" of the 1970s—warned the business community that enthusiasm for AI had spiraled out of control in the 1980s and that disappointment would certainly follow. Three years later, the billion-dollar AI industry began to collapse. Hype is common in many emerging technologies, such as the railway mania or the dot-com bubble. The AI winter is primarily a collapse in the perception of AI by government bureaucrats and venture capitalists. Despite the rise and fall of AI's reputation, it has continued to develop new and successful technologies. AI researcher Rodney Brooks would complain in 2002 that "there's this stupid myth out there that AI has failed, but AI is around you every second of the day." In 2005, Ray Kurzweil agreed: "Many observers still think that the AI winter was the end of the story and that nothing since has come of the AI field. Yet today many thousands of AI applications are deeply embedded in the infrastructure of every industry." Enthusiasm and optimism about AI has increased since its low point in the early 1990s. Beginning about 2012, interest in artificial intelligence (and especially the sub-field of machine learning) from the research and corporate communities led to a dramatic increase in funding and investment.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights in Germany have evolved significantly over the course of the last decades. During the 1920s and early 1930s, lesbian and gay people in Berlin were generally tolerated by society and many bars and clubs specifically pertaining to gay men were opened. Although same-sex sexual activity between men was already made illegal under Paragraph 175 by the German Empire in 1871, Nazi Germany extended these laws during World War II, which resulted in the persecution and deaths of thousands of homosexual citizens. The Nazi extensions were repealed in 1950 and same-sex sexual activity between men was decriminalised in both East and West Germany in 1968 and 1969, respectively. The age of consent was equalized in unified Germany in 1994. Same-sex marriage has been legal since 1 October 2017, after the Bundestag passed legislation giving same-sex couples full marital and adoption rights on 30 June 2017. Prior to that, registered partnerships were available to same-sex couples, having been legalised in 2001. These partnerships provided most though not all of the same rights as marriages, and they ceased to be available after the introduction of same-sex marriage. Same-sex stepchild adoption first became legal in 2005 and was expanded in 2013 to allow someone in a same-sex relationship to adopt a child already adopted by their partner. Discrimination protections on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity vary across Germany, but discrimination in employment and the provision of goods and services is banned countrywide. Transgender people have been allowed to change their legal gender since 1980. The law initially required them to undergo surgical alteration of their genitals in order to have key identity documents changed. This has since been declared unconstitutional. Despite two of the three main political parties in the German Government being socially conservative on the issues of LGBT rights, Germany has frequently been seen as one of the most gay-friendly countries in the world. Recent polls have indicated that a large majority of Germans support same-sex marriage. Another poll in 2013 indicated that 87% of Germans believed that homosexuality should be accepted by society, which was the second highest score in the world (only 39 countries were polled) following Spain (88%). Berlin has been referred to by publications as one of the most gay friendly cities in the world. The former Mayor of Berlin, Klaus Wowereit, is one of the most famous openly gay men in Germany, next to the former Mayor of Hamburg, Ole von Beust, the Federal Minister of Health, Jens Spahn, the deceased former Minister for Foreign Affairs, Guido Westerwelle, the former Federal Ministry of the Environment, Barbara Hendricks, comedians Hape Kerkeling, and Hella von Sinnen, or political journalist Anne Will. Founded in 1981, the Akademie Waldschlösschen, an adult education conference center near Göttingen, has developed into a national networking hub for LGBTI teachers, lawyers, clergy, gay fathers and gay and lesbian student groups at German universities, many in cooperation with TransAktiv and Intersexuelle Menschen e.V..

Its title adopts "curious", a term used within the LGBT community to express same-sex experimentation, into a double entendre as Kiyoko demands the truth about the seriousness of her love interest's new relationship. Kiyoko wrote "Curious" based on a past relationship with a closeted woman, as well as experiences with women who were unsure about their sexuality. Critical reception towards "Curious" has been very positive, with critics praising its production, themes and Kiyoko's confident delivery, often calling it one of the strongest tracks on Expectations. A music video was released for the song, which Kiyoko co-directed with James Larese. Actress Tereza Kacerova co-stars as her love interest, who she encounters at a house party she is attending with her boyfriend. Critics praised its visuals and Kiyoko's direction, as well as its sensual portrayal of a lesbian relationship. Kiyoko has performed the song live several times, including on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, at the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards and during her Expectations Tour. Kiyoko also sang "Curious" with singer Taylor Swift during the latter's Reputation Stadium Tour.

The public domain consists of all the creative work to which no exclusive intellectual property rights apply. Those rights may have expired, been forfeited, expressly waived, or may be inapplicable. The works of William Shakespeare and Ludwig van Beethoven, and most early silent films, are in the public domain either by virtue of their having been created before copyright existed, or by their copyright term having expired. Some works are not covered by copyright, and are therefore in the public domain—among them the formulae of Newtonian physics, cooking recipes, and all computer software created prior to 1974. Other works are actively dedicated by their authors to the public domain (see waiver); some examples include reference implementations of cryptographic algorithms, the image-processing software ImageJ, (created by the National Institutes of Health), and the CIA's World Factbook. The term public domain is not normally applied to situations where the creator of a work retains residual rights, in which case use of the work is referred to as "under license" or "with permission". As rights vary by country and jurisdiction, a work may be subject to rights in one country and be in the public domain in another. Some rights depend on registrations on a country-by-country basis, and the absence of registration in a particular country, if required, gives rise to public-domain status for a work in that country. The term public domain may also be interchangeably used with other imprecise or undefined terms such as the "public sphere" or "commons", including concepts such as the "commons of the mind", the "intellectual commons", and the "information commons".

Kirby's Return to Dream Land, released in Europe and Australia as Kirby's Adventure Wii, is a Kirby video game and the twelfth platform installment of the series, developed by HAL Laboratory, and published by Nintendo. While Kirby's Epic Yarn was released in 2010, Kirby's Return to Dream Land is the first traditional Kirby platforming home console game since Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, which was released in 2000 for the Nintendo 64. The title was released in North America on October 24, 2011, in Japan on October 27, 2011, in Europe on November 25, 2011, and in Australia on December 1, 2011. Kirby's Return to Dream Land features the staple gameplay of traditional Kirby platform games, in which Kirby possesses the ability to inhale and copy enemies to gain a variety of attacks such as breathing fire or swinging a sword. The game supports cooperative multiplayer gameplay, allowing up to four players to control various Kirby characters, including Waddle Dee, King Dedede, and Meta Knight. Kirby's plot focuses on the characters retrieving the scattered pieces of a crashed alien spaceship. The game was announced as a Nintendo GameCube title to be released in late 2005, but development was later shifted to its successor console, the Wii. The game was presumed to be canceled until it was re-announced in 2011. The game was made available for the Nintendo eShop in 2015. Some elements from the cancelled Kirby title of 2005 were carried over to Kirby's Return to Dream Land, such as the ability for players to stack up in a totem carried by the player on the bottom of the stack. Other elements from the Kirby title of 2005, such as Kirby's ability to befriend up to three "Helpers" (a gameplay mechanic from Kirby Super Star), were modified and carried over to another Kirby game, released in 2018 on the Nintendo Switch, called Kirby Star Allies. In this title, Kirby is able to throw ethereal, valentine-shaped hearts at some enemies encountered in the game, and by doing so, befriend them as Helpers that can be controlled by a second, third, and fourth player.

Several different editions of the Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) fantasy role-playing game have been produced since 1974. The current publisher of D&D, Wizards of the Coast, produces new materials only for the most current edition of the game. Many D&D fans, however, continue to play older versions of the game and some third-party companies continue to publish materials compatible with these older editions. After the original edition of D&D was introduced in 1974, the game was split into two branches in 1977: the rules-light system of Dungeons & Dragons and the more complex, rules-heavy system of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (AD&D). The standard game was eventually expanded into a series of five box sets by the mid-1980s before being compiled and slightly revised in 1991 as the Dungeons & Dragons Rules Cyclopedia. Meanwhile, the 2nd edition of AD&D was published in 1989. In 2000, the 3rd edition, called simply Dungeons & Dragons, debuted. The 4th edition was published in 2008. The 5th edition was released in 2014.

An air gun (or airgun) is any kind of gun that launches projectiles pneumatically with compressed air or other gases that are pressurized mechanically without involving any chemical reactions, in contrast to a firearm, which pressurizes gases chemically via an exothermic oxidation (deflagration) of combustible propellants which generates propulsive energy by breaking molecular bonds. Both the long gun and handgun forms (air rifle and air pistol) typically propel metallic projectiles that are either diabolo-shaped pellets or spherical shots called BBs. Certain types of air guns (usually rifles) may also propel darts or arrows. The first air guns were developed as early as the 1500s. They have been used in hunting, sporting and warfare. Modern air guns use one of three types of power source depending on the design: spring-piston, pneumatic, and bottled compressed gas (most commonly carbon dioxide).
