Stacking instead of mixing
Overheating of computer chips is a major obstacle to the development of faster and more efficient computers and mobile phones. One promising remedy for this problem could be a new class of materials: topological insulators, which conduct electricity with less resistance and heat generation than conventional materials. Scientists from Jülich and Aachen has now found a way to control the desired conducting properties of this type of material more precisely and reliably than ever before.

Perpetual youth for batteries?
A key issue with lithium ion batteries is aging. It significantly reduces their potential storage capacity. To date, very little is known about the causes of the aging effects. Scientists from the Department of Technical Electrochemistry and the Research Neutron Source FRM II at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have now come a step closer to identifying the causes in their latest experiments.

Electrons always find a (quantum) way
Scientists from the University of Basel in Switzerland have demonstrated for the first time how electrons are transported from a superconductor through a quantum dot into a metal with normal conductivity. This transport process through a quantum dot had already been calculated theoretically in the nineties, but scientists at the University of Basel have now succeeded in proving the theory with measurements. They report on their findings in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters.

"Forget Adam because he's forgettable. He never brought anything good to this band." Those were the words of The Drums' Jonathan Pierce back in October 2010, when we asked him how they were dealing with guitarist Adam Kessler leaving the set-up.
You wouldn't have thought such spiteful words would come from such a puppy-eyed, seemingly happy-poppy band as them – but the searing honesty is just one of the things I love about the New Yorkers. No "it was just creative differences", no "we're still friends". They just bloody hated him for buggering off and were happy to admit it.
That was a while ago now, of course – so it's pretty darn exciting to hear that they've regrouped (as a trio, there will be no permanent Adam replacement), recorded their second album 'Portamento', and told us all about it during an explosive interview in the new issue of NME.
Other highlights of the chat? Well, Jonathan fights back at Nicky Wire, and his accusions that they're "soulless", by branding him "the guy who's famous for being annoying". And Jon gets more personal than he's ever got before with a tape rolling, laughing about how he believes he doesn't owe his parents anything just because he "slithered out" of his mother's womb. Lovely.
So read it, play awesome comeback song 'Money' very loudly, and start get very excited about The Drums' return. We reckon even Jon's folks would be proud of that tune.

In general symbiotic robotic systems can be considered three-agent systems in which the agents are performing interdependent tasks. In such systems the robot's actions are generally controllable and observable the environment's actions are partially controllable and partially observable, and the human's actions are not (directly) controllable but are partially observable. This new paradigm will enable us to incorporate techniques from AI and robotics in everyday, smart environments. Symbiotic robotic systems will shift our focus from the development of fully autonomous, almighty robot servants to the development of an open, extensible environment in which humans will cohabitate with many cooperating robotic devices

BALTIMORE, MD -- Melvin Mora hit a two-run double in the eighth
inning to cap yet another improbable rally by the Baltimore Orioles
and doom the sinking Houston Astros to their sixth straight defeat,
6-5 Tuesday night.
The Orioles trailed 5-3 before rebounding to earn their third
comeback victory in four games. It was the major-league leading
16th time this season that Baltimore rallied from a two-run deficit
to win.
A home run by Nick Markakis got the Orioles to 5-4 in the
seventh before the Orioles went ahead in the eighth. After Adam
Jones hit a leadoff single off Doug Brocail (2-2) and Brian Roberts
drew a one-out walk, Jose Valverde struck out Markakis before Mora
hit a 3-2 pitch into the gap in right-center.
Jim Johnson (2-2) worked a scoreless eighth and George Sherrill
got three straight outs for his 23rd save.

His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh to Visit Cunard's Queen Mary 2 during 10th Anniversary Celebrations on 9 May 2014
SOUTHAMPTON, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cunard Line is honoured to announce that His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh will make a return visit to Queen Mary 2 in her homeport of Southampton on Friday, 9 May 2014 and attend a reception and lunch being held to celebrate the flagship's 10th anniversary in service.
"We are delighted and honoured that His Royal Highness has agreed to visit Queen Mary 2 and take part in our flagship's 10th anniversary, having been present at her entry into service"
During his time on board, His Royal Highness will visit several behind-the-scenes areas and meet with various crew who perform different roles on the ship. Further details of the 9 May visit will be announced shortly.
"We are delighted and honoured that His Royal Highness has agreed to visit Queen Mary 2 and take part in our flagship's 10th anniversary, having been present at her entry into service," said David Dingle, CEO of Cunard Line. "For all those involved, this will surely be another memorable occasion in Cunard's 175-year history."
The most famous passenger ocean liner in the world, and for 10 years now the flagship of the Cunard fleet, Queen Mary 2 was named by Her Majesty The Queen at Southampton in January 2004 during the most spectacular event of its kind ever. His Royal Highness was also in attendance.
Since then, Queen Mary 2 has undertaken a total of 419 voyages including over 200 Transatlantic Crossings, called at 182 ports in 60 countries and carried over 1.3 million guests.
For more information about Queen Mary 2, or to book a voyage, contact your Travel Agent, call Cunard Line toll free at 1-800-728-6273, or visit www.cunard.com.
About Queen Mary 2
Christened by Her Majesty The Queen in 2004, Cunard Line's flagship Queen Mary 2 defines luxury travel for the 21st Century and continues an almost 175-year legacy of Transatlantic travel. Queen Mary 2 is the fastest passenger ship in the world and achieved her 200th Transatlantic Crossing in July 2013. Since becoming Cunard flagship on completion of her maiden Transatlantic Crossing in May 2004, Queen Mary 2 has remained unchallenged as the world's largest, longest, tallest, widest and most expensive ocean liner ever built and the most famous and fastest passenger ship in operation today. To celebrate Queen Mary 2's 10th Anniversary in 2014, special on board events are planned for her westbound Transatlantic Crossing on 9 May and her eastbound Crossing on 16 May. Famous names who have experienced this iconic voyage since 2004 include President George H.W. Bush, Desmond Tutu, James Taylor, Rod Stewart, Carly Simon, Uma Thurman, Richard Dreyfuss, John Cleese and Angela Bassett.

Admissions Cheating Probe Widens
Authorities Say Dozens of Long Island Students Cheated on SAT and ACT Exams; Investigation Reaches Into Queens
A probe into college-admissions test cheating that began at one Long Island high school broadened Tuesday as authorities said dozens of current and former students in several schools, including in Queens, have come under suspicion.
Eleven students were arrested Tuesday in a new round of charges in a burgeoning investigation that first became public eight months ago.
Nassau County District Attorney Kathleen Rice said that more than 40 students are now suspected of participating in the scheme in which high-school students paid at least five young men between $500 and $3,500 each to take the SAT or ACT tests for them.
Further arrests are possible, including parents who might have bankrolled the cheating, authorities said.
"Anyone involved in perpetrating a scheme like this needs to be held accountable," Ms. Rice said. "This is high stakes."
Students charged in September were from Great Neck North High School; Tuesday's charges also involve students from Great Neck South High School, Roslyn High School, North Shore Hebrew Academy High School in Great Neck and St. Mary's High School in Manhasset, Ms. Rice said. At least one student at a private school in Queens is suspected of arranging for someone else to take a test, although that student hasn't been arrested, a person with knowledge of the investigation said.
It was unclear if the cases are part of a coordinated ring or represent isolated incidents.
Students were apparently able to pose as others with some ease, exposing holes in security procedures for the SAT, which is administered two million times a year and is required by many colleges as part of a highly competitive admissions process.
To take the test, students must show identification—which can be a school identification—but they can take the test anywhere it's offered. A handful of tests in question were taken at schools in Queens, officials said.
Great Neck North Principal Bernard Kaplan said it is "ridiculously easy to cheat" on the tests.
"All they need to get into the school is just any school ID with their picture on it, which any fifth-grader can make on their computer," Mr. Kaplan said.
Asked if he was surprised that cheating may have reached into Queens, he said: "Surprise me? I'd be shocked if it wasn't happening all across the country."
ETS administers the tests for the College Board, which has hired a firm run by former Federal Bureau of Investigation director Louis Freeh to look into its security practices.
ETS spokesman Thomas Ewing said the company hoped the arrests "serve as a wake-up call to any students, not only on Long Island or in New York but across the country, who are thinking of risking their futures with such an unethical and foolish act."
Mr. Ewing said the company is prohibited from alerting high schools or colleges to suspected cheating because of privacy rules in a New York state law.
But state Sen. Kenneth LaValle, a Long Island Republican who was the primary sponsor of the law, said in a radio interview this week that the statute should be amended to address criminal behavior.
The probe first became public in March and broke open in September when Samuel Eshaghoff, a former student at Great Neck North High School, was arrested and accused of taking money from six classmates to take the SAT for them.
Faculty members at Great Neck North High School alerted Nassau County investigators to potential cheating last year after students tipped them off. A review of student records—especially among students who didn't take the exam at their home school—showed disparities with SAT scores.
The probe broadened from there and led to Tuesday's arrests. Two additional students are expected to be arrested in coming days.
Authorities have accused four former students with accepting money to take the exams: Joshua Chefec, 20 years old, a graduate of Great Neck North; Adam Justin, 19, a graduate of North Shore Hebrew Academy; Michael Pomerantz, 18, who attended Great Neck North; and George Trane, 19, a graduate of Great Neck South.
Students suspected of paying for a test proxy were charged as juveniles with misdemeanors. Several appeared Tuesday in Nassau County District Court. Some dressed in suits, others in jeans and sneakers. They all covered their faces with their clothing as cameras flashed outside of the courtroom.
Still, half of the 40 suspected cheaters won't face charges for a variety of reasons, officials said. There's a two-year statute of limitations on misdemeanor charges, and the testing companies didn't keep adequate records in other instances, Nassau County District Attorney spokesman John Byrne said.
Brian Griffin, an attorney for Mr. Chefec, said the case doesn't belong in criminal court. "We have a school system and a criminal system, and for good reason they are kept apart," Mr. Griffin said. He said the school investigated the charges and said they were unfounded. Mr. Kaplan, the principal, said he couldn't confirm an internal probe.
The other defendants either couldn't be reached or declined to comment.
Corrections & Amplifications
The College Board has hired a firm run by former Federal Bureau of Investigation director Louis Freeh to review test security practices. An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated the company had been hired by ETS, which administers tests for the College Board.

We have just returned from a 2-week to Utah. While we were in the area, we stayed at the Best Western River Terrace Motel. The motel sits on the bank of the Green River; there is a walk along the river in back of the property. Our windows overlooked the river as well.
Our room was very quiet and clean; the decor is soothing and tasteful. Carpeting is thick. The motel has always been a non-smoking facility. Experiences with non-smoking rooms in other hotels is usually in a room that was once a smoking room, but has since been designated as non-smoking. These rooms usually have a smoking odor which we find offensive. Not so with this motel.
Due to the nature of our trip, the motel was a central location for our travel. We explored the surrounding area for photographic purposes. We found that the motel was the best place to be in the area. Our final destination was Moab, UT and the Best Western is about 60 miles away.
The best thing about the motel is breakfast!. In addition to the usual fare, food cooked by the resident chef, Ben, was offered. The omelets were wonderful! Ben was charming and cordial. He also told stories about the local area and his family. Carlos, the greeter at the breakfast area, was also great! He informed all comers of the menu and did not make any errors in our orders.
The personnel at the check-in counter were very helpful as well. The people who work here are friendly and smiling. I have stayed in many a motel over the years, but this one is the best!
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

Congrats on getting some awesome bike lanes. Another thing Chicago is missing.
I love that the sign person is smiling!
awesome!! between the bike lane and the smiling sign person, this is perfection!
She was smiling every day out - for several weeks.

What a delicious recipe! I used chicken tenders as I keep these on hand and prepared the sauce as directed. It was raining today, so I used my grill pan and it worked perfectly. The bacon was done and the chicken was amazingly tender and moist. I loved the flavor of the basting sauce. This would be easy to adapt to bite size pieces and use as appetizers. Prepared in participation of My 3 Chefs. Thanks lizbits!

Empty product
Hello. Your addition to the end of a paragraph in empty product flatly contradicts what is stated earlier in the paragraph. If your edit is to make any sense, you would need to change those earlier parts of the paragraph as well. Howevers, you raise an issue that should perhaps be addressed. Could you bring it up on the discussion page? Michael Hardy 23:28, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- I once read somewhere that 00 is indeterminate, because 00 = 01-1 = 01/01 = 0/0 which is indeterminate.
And the proof that n0 = 1 to which I'm most familiar is n0 = n1-1 = n1/n1 = n/n = 1 which of course doesn't apply if n = 0. --Army1987 11:26, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)
The sense in which 00 is indeterminate is that if f(x) and g(x) both approach 0 as x approaches something then f(x)g(x) may approach any positive number, depending on what functions f and g are. But for many purposes, including both formal power series and convergent power series, and many of the purposes of combinatorics and probability, one should take 00 to be 1. Michael Hardy 19:17, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)
I deleted the stuff about coins as picks and Bryan May from the intro for guitar because it doesn't really belong there. If you can add it (and as much more information as you know) to the article on guitar picks that'd be great though --KayEss 16:10, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Planck units
i am deleting the note regarding musical scale and the Planck angular frequency. it's a little cute, but i don't think it's of interest to those reading the article seriously. one could make similar notes for every other Planck unit and all that would do is clutter the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rbj (talk • contribs) 03:35, 2 February 2005 (UTC)
Uses of trigonometry
As for the "number theory" section: Well, but in order to know which fractions are in lowest terms I have to already know the factorisation of 42, then I can evalue the Moebius function simplily using the definition. Therefore that formula is pretty useless.
- Earlier I answered thus:
- I find the word therefore above to be a gross non-sequitur. Michael Hardy 21:59, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Now I have more time, so I will elaborate. Obviously you can evaluate (I assume you meant "evaluate") the Moebius function without using trigonometric functions. When I wrote that section, I certainly did not have in mind using trigonometric functions to evaluate the Moebius function. What I had in mind was using the connection between the Moebius function and trigonometric functions in order to apply Fourier analysis to number theory. Michael Hardy 23:21, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I understand this, but the wording could be misunderstood as implying that a primality test can be made using trigonometric functions and used in cryptanalysis to crack public key crypto, or something like that. Surely it's not what it's meant. --Army1987 11:47, 1 May 2005 (UTC)
- PS: I would help to sign your comments. That way one could know without looking at the edit history that the person who wrote your comment quoted above was not the same person who wrote the paragraph that followed it. Michael Hardy 23:21, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Well, next times I'll have to remember to sign my comments... :---Army1987 11:47, 1 May 2005 (UTC))
- OK, I've added some comments to the article to clarify the point that you missed. Michael Hardy 23:38, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Your edit summary to Quark[1] is puzzling, as the denominators for charges were clearly 3 before. Were you having difficulty reading them? Susvolans (pigs can fly) 10:23, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, my browser showed them as 2's. In general, IMO one-character vulgar fractions are better avoided.
- Just out of interest, what is your browser and operating system? Susvolans (pigs can fly) 12:10, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- IE 6.0 WinXP. Now I looked at that version again, and discovered that they were 2's only in Medium and Very Small font sizes. In Very Large, Large and Small they are 3's. I understand that very small could be too small to clearly show the 3's, but I wonder why Small shows 3's and Medium shows 2's... there must be a bug in the font, I guess.
- Just out of interest, what is your browser and operating system? Susvolans (pigs can fly) 12:10, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
E flat? Sure, why not.
If you have the data to evaluate out-of-tuneness of harmonics relative to equal temperament in the harmonic series article, by all means edit away. I rewrote most of the surrounding text but left the list and graphic "as is". My experience as a piano technician tells me they're ALL out of tune to some extent in the physical world, and that even equal temperament itself can't be specified as an unchanging set of frequencies any more than it can be tuned with an unchanging set of beat rates.

Riemann zet pictures
Thanks for taking the time to create the reimann zeta pictures, ... but ... in my browser, they look terrible; they're fading into white. I think its the image resizing, its cutting out pixels. Would it be possible to have you redraw the pictures with a heavier line weight, so that when they get resized small, they still have impact?
Also, could you make a picture of Re zeta vs. Im zeta? I find that picture quite dramatic, as it spirals around, with all of the spirals going through zero. Anyway, thanks. linas 01:15, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
- 1. I've made it with a shareware program whose trial period expired right yesterday... (Honest!) However I can try editing the current one with Paint Shop Pro, but no promise that I'd manage to create something decent...
- Done.--Army1987 09:53, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

Re: Italy or UK?
Why are you listed on Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Italy but categorized as from UK?--Army1987 10:22, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
- Well, because I was born in and grew up in Italy, yet happen now to be living in the UK. Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Italy is meant to include wikipedians originally from Italy. Category:UK Wikipedians is a little bit greyer, but I guess it is being replaced by Category:Wikipedians in the United Kingdom, which I would count as. Though only for another two weeks, after which I guess I'll have to change it.
- If you're question is to work out whether I ought to be in Category:Wikipedians in Italy, well I don't know. The page says "...or are associated with Italy", so I'd say yes. If the categorizers want to be strict and include only those who are currently living in Italy, well I guess no. I doesn't really matter to me. — Asbestos | Talk (RFC) 10:57, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
- Then I suggest you to include yourself in both categories (and remove yourself from the list).--Army1987 17:46, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
System of a Down edits
Hi Army1987. I've discussed this issue at length as Pasboudin and also as 66.36.x.x when I was unregistered. The same issue has been debated at Talk:System of a Down and Talk:Mezmerize, so you may wish to check the discussions on these pages for background. Talk:System_of_a_Down#Album_mixup_rumor is a particularly good discussion. Pasboudin 21:37, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
- I don't dare to touch that paragraph anymore. Let's see the results of the votes. IMHO, we'd better keep the paragraph in its Rhobite version, or maybe even better in its Norvy version, until Hypnotize is released, then use the what-will-we-expect-to-read-in-year-2015 rule of thumb. --Army1987 12:23, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
- Yup. Since you don't think the Mike version should be there any more, maybe consider a vote change? Pasboudin 21:00, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
- If by "Mike version" you mean that prolix ungrammatical crap, well, I've never thought it should be there. The version in the text of the poll is the one Rhobite wrote in spite of protection. My vote is for that, but I would also consider Norvy version. In addition to that, I provided "improved" (IMVHO) versions of Norvy and Rhobite versions.--Army1987 21:08, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
- Er... The matter is about what is meant by "majorly rewrite", I changed my mind.--Army1987 21:14, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
- Yup. Since you don't think the Mike version should be there any more, maybe consider a vote change? Pasboudin 21:00, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
Look at all those languages!
That's a lot of languages, how did you learn all of those?!!! I'll wait for you to come back, though.
Kinneyboy90 01:18, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
- As for English, I've been studying it for ~10 years, I used to play lots of computer games in English, to use (and still use) some computer programs in English, I listen lots of music in English, surf websites in English etc... so I'm quite fluent in it. (Last year I scored 4 out of 5 at the end of an English course in Oxford, and this year I think I'm gonna take the FCE exam.)
- I used to study French at school (since September 1998 to June 2001), but I'm no longer fluent in it. Anyway I still understand it well enough to use an article as a source for writings in one's own language and to ask or answer simple questions as WikiBabel says (and I manage to understand something in French TV news). I picked up a little Spanish by playing Spanish Pokémon Red (no, I'm not joking) — however Spanish is very similar to Italian. Once you can speak Italian, French and Latin it's no problem to learn to understand Spanish at least at a basic level.
- As for Europanto, that's not a "serious" language, I used it before even knowing it had a name (and, yes, I've had conversations in Europanto too, though only with Italian speakers).
- I study Latin at school. However, in Italy they just teach you to translate texts from Latin to Italian using a dictionary, usually at a speed of ten lines of text an hour or less; I would not be able to directly write in Latin, or would be able with some difficulty, so I decided to downgrade myself from la-2 to la-1.
- I have also some basic knowledge of Japanese and German (i.e. counting, greeting, saying simple sentences...) but I'm unable to read encyclopedic articles in these languages, so I left them out. --Army1987 13:25, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
Lol thanks, dude. I realize that now. --Ukiki 00:17, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

Catholic Church of Wikipedia
Since you are listed as a Roman Catholic, I urge you to vote to delete this offensive article: User:Sam Korn/Catholic Church of Wikipedia, which is a parody of Catholicism, at this page: Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Sam Korn/Catholic Church of Wikipedia, and tell other people to do the same. --Shanedidona 01:40, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
Can you help
I would appreciate help with watching LIFE (Charity) and Central Catholic Library both of which I feel have merit and are only being classified unencyclopedic because the "editor" has a grudge against me. Chooserr
Since you are listed as a Roman Catholic, I figured I'd send you this. Wikipedia:Catholic Alliance of wikipedia has been nominated for Deletion. Please vote and/or tell other people to vote to keep this organization on wikipedia. --Shanedidona 01:28, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
Lonely Day
I changed "Lonely Day" into a song stub because it doesn't fit into the "metal category", even though it's by System of a Down. It's more of a soft-rock with a hard rock twist to it, not metal. --WereWolf Febuary 1, 2006 3:30 P.M. Mountain Time. (UTC)

I guess wew can do that . . .and how did you know it was me that changed thee metal-song-stub?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by WereWolf (talk • contribs) 18:11, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

You have played the guitar intro of Toxicity on a church organ? Awesome! (Sorry, I saw it on the two-millionth article pool and thought that was fantastic. Sadly, I haven't done it myself. :D) -- Sarsaparilla39 10:01, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- It's not so hard. You play the C-G arpeggio with your right thumb and ring finger, then you move your hand to play the Eb-Bb part with the same fingers. For the following you use your little finger to play A's, and then middle/ring/little fingers for A/Bb/C. (At least, this is the naïve way I play it, I've never been formally taught to play piano or keyboards so I don't know what would be the most 'proper' way to do that.) --Army1987 20:52, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Tartini and difference tones
Greetings! I attempted to clarify the passage you mentioned; hopefully it's better now (someone else had already fixed it up a bit before I got there). Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help. Happy editing, Antandrus (talk) 04:08, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks. --Army1987 20:45, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
When using template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. — Ian Manka Talk to me! 15:14, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
Re: Redirection page
I saw your note that it was not wise to redirect my user page to my article page. Thanks, I've since un-redirected my user page. For the rest you recommend, please see my User page and comment there please. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Galidakis (talk • contribs) 23:57, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
you were completely right about Physical constants
and User:Kehrli's edits were both bad writing and bad physics. there are some POV disputes regarding the nature of dimensionless/dimensionful physical quantities that he is having elsewhere (that i do not wish to touch). i am not sure, but i think that he actually does not fully understand the nature of such yet is fully convinced that he understands it better than the mainstream physics understanding of the subject. please, if someone makes scientific fallacious edits that you know are wrong, don't just complain, fix them. i didn't have it on my watch page so it wasn't until yesterday that i discovered this (and fixed it). best regards. r b-j 04:21, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
- The current version of the article seems ok to me, I'm just making some minor style tweaks. However, that edit had screwed up the POV of the article that the only way I saw to fix it was to completely revert that, and I was unsure on wheter that was the right thing to do. --Army1987 09:23, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
- it depends on you level of technical certainty or moral certainty. if you know something is wrong or someone's personal POV (rather than the POV accepted by the consensus of the experts and/or practitioners in that particular discipline), sure, revert the bastard. r b-j 02:42, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- Army, Rbj, I do not want to appear arrogant but I think you changed back for worse the article of Physical constant. Please read Talk:Physical_constant#Removed_paragraph for a more detailed explanation. Please think about it and let me know your conclusions. Obviously this needs a deeper discussion, but I think you guys are wrong on this one. This subject, btw, has nothing to do with the m/z struggle that I was taken in somewhere else. In both cases I am fighting a wide-spread opinion that is wrong. Sorry that my edits are sometimes badly written. I am very short of time (as you are) and I only edit when I find a serious error, as I think there is in the Physical constant article. I am aware that some people try to present me as a maveric-editor. However, before you get influenced by those please make your own opinion and carefully rethink your arguments. I think both of you have the IQ to do this. Thanks, --Kehrli 10:14, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Il_sogno_del_menestrello.ogg
Thanks for uploading Image:Il_sogno_del_menestrello.ogg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 14:51, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Cleaning out the additional logarithm topics article

Kilogram's circular definition
- Copied from Talk:Kilogram
- Army1987: Yes, you are right. The Avogadro constant (the mole) must be fixed in Kilogram, otherwise it would be a circular definition. It is now fixed. I can not tell you how many bright people (at least seemingly so) have looked at this article and overlooked that laps of logic. I see you are an Italian physics student and English is likely your second language. Your choice of vocation certainly seems to be the right one. My wife and I just visited Italy (and some of Europe) and just loved your country. Thanks for your help. Greg L (my talk) 06:42, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for Image:ExtremeValueTheorem.png, but I'd argue that the way it appears in the Continuous function article it would need a lot of improvement. The function is very oscillatory, and that distracts from the point it is trying to make. It is also rather blurry, and the green and blue points are invisible in the thumbnail.
Could you regenerate the picture with a smoother function (say an absolute value or a function with an angle but smooth otherwise) and make the curves thicker and green/blue points more visible? Wonder what you think. Thanks. You can reply here. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 04:37, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, the points are too small, and the lines could be thicker. I'll fix that. As for smoothness, IMO in example images one should use the a typical instance of a concept, rather than a particularly well-behaved one, for example an example image of a triangle had better not depict an isosceles triangle, or an example image of an angle shouldn't depict a right angle. And most continuous functions are nowhere differentiable. I agree that as it stands that makes the image quite ugly, but maybe using thicker lines will mitigate that issue. --Army1987 (talk) 12:26, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
- OK, so I guess we disagree here. I'd argue that most functions people see are smooth or piecewise smooth. A piecewise smooth (with a kink and an angle say) function would look better to me. The highly oscillatory function will strike people as alien, such a diagram would be more appropriate in illustrating a nowhere differentiable function rather than a maximum/minimum concept. But OK, it is your image. :) Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 15:56, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, I agree that usually, in mathematics, continuous functions are exemplified by smooth or piecewise smooth functions. That's because the most used functions are analytic functions with closed-form formulas. But most "real-world" (i.e. stochastic) functions aren't smooth. A diagram of stock market prices, a seismograph, or the waveform of brown noise (or indeed of any audio sample more complicated than the output of a tuning fork or of a synthesizer) will be very spiky, so that graph might not be as "alien" as you think. Of course, that image is going to be used in math articles, so that a more regular function would look more familiar, but I think using an example of the most general kind which still satisfies the definition of "continuous" isn't such a bad idea. --Army1987 (talk) 17:51, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Olympus cameras receive EISA Award
Ilse Jurriën : August 30th 2009 - 12:40 CET
New Olympus cameras receive EISA Award :
This year's EISA Awards once again saw Olympus pick up two impressive honours. The brand new Olympus E-P1 was cited as the best "European Camera 2009-2010" - an exciting start for Olympus' very first Micro Four Thirds camera model. And with its incredible rugged qualities, it's no wonder the Olymppus Mju TOUGH-8000 digital camera also scooped the "European Adventure Compact Camera 2009-2010" award. This double recognition further confirms Olympus' reputation as a strong and innovative leader in the digital camera market. EISA (European Imaging & Sound Association) is comprised of around 50 prominent magazines in the areas of audio, video, home theatre, mobile electronics and photography.
Olympus PEN European Camera 2009-2010
The EISA jury was clearly impressed with Olympus' first Micro Four Thirds camera, the revolutionary Olympus PEN. Confirming the groundbreaking benefits of the Olympus E-P1's key features, they noted: "The Olympus PEN camera is an elegant camera with an appealing retro design. The Olympus camera utilises the new mirror- and prism-less Micro Four Thirds system, which allows the E-P1 to be very compact and lightweight. Besides the compact Micro Four Thirds lenses, users can fit existing Four Thirds, OM and Leica M mount lenses to the body via an adaptor". And in recognition that the image quality of the E-P1 matches D-SLR results, the esteemed EISA jury summed up by saying: "As the sensor is larger than that found in compact cameras better image quality and lower noise levels can be achieved".
Olympus E-P1 camera features
With a range of features to choose from, the Olympus E-P1 camera is also a dream for anyone with creative ambition. The popular Art Filters can even be applied to its HD movies, which are recorded in high quality linear PCM sound. Nacho Abia, Executive Managing Director of Olympus Imaging Europa GmbH, commented: "We are very proud of this camera award. With it, the prestigious EISA panel of experts confirms that our product development strategy is on the right track for success now and in the future."
Olympus Mju TOUGH-8000 European Adventure Compact Camera 2009-2010
Designed to deliver impeccable results under the toughest conditions imaginable, the robust all-terrain 3.6x wide zoom lens Olympus Mju TOUGH-8000 camera has already earned itself a formidable reputation. After winning a TIPA award, the rugged camera has now gone on to win another "photography Oscar". Waterproof to depths of 10m, shockproof against falls from 2m, freezeproof to -10°C and crushproof to 100kg, the Olympus Mju TOUGH-8000 camera was able to convince the discerning EISA jury to name it as best "European Adventure Compact Camera 2009-2010".
Olympus camera receives EISA Award
In its accompanying remarks, the jury noted the camera's suitability for active lifestyles: "The Olympus Mju TOUGH 8000 digital camera is the ideal companion for photographers with an active outdoor life. Designed to be used both underwater and for normal photography, the Olympus Mju camera is waterproof down to 10 metres and even has a built-in pressure gauge that indicates its actual depth. The Olympus camera is shock-proof against drops onto hard surfaces from a height of up to 2 meters, and those who enjoy winter sports will find they can use the camera in temperatures of minus 10°C." The jury even extended its recognition of the sturdy model to the camera's handling, noting: "Many functions can be controlled by tapping the camera's sides, making it easy to use even when wearing gloves".

Canon 40D and 1Ds Mark III specs leaked
Amazon.com has unwittingly leaked specs for the Canon 40D and 1DsMkIII by putting test pages up at their online store. When will online retailers learn that you cannot fight the distributed power of fanboys around the world? The 40D (10.1 megapixels, 6.5 fps, 17 frame RAW buffer) was listed as shipping on September 20 at $1,299.99, and the 1Ds Mark III (21.1 megapixels, 5 fps, 15 frame RAW buffer) as shipping on December 10, priced at $7,999.99. Since the 1Ds Mk III should use the same body as the already-available 1D Mk III, housings should hopefully be ready by the time it ships. Rumor has it that the new Canon cameras will be announced on Monday.
Amazon has since taken down the offending pages, but luckily, a few sights have cached the data: [40D @ Gizmodo] [1DsMkIII @ Engadget].
It's public now. See DPReview for more.

I know that annotated books can be difficult to navigate, filled with useless, pointless, or just plain boring information, and can be grossly oversized. That is not the case here.
So - here's the scoop.
The original story is very nicely presented, with all original illustrations in color when possible, and in black and white elsewhere. The type is nice and clear, very easy to read. (Many cheaper editions are also rather hard on the eyes. Check the print before you buy, folks!)
The illustrations are printed very clearly, and with very good notes on what they are.
And then the annotations - useful, engaging, and very well done. You will WANT to read these. We discover how the book was written, and what was changed between editions. (There were many changes made so that The Hobbit would conform more easily to the Lord of the Rings trilogy.) There are fascinating tidbits about Tolkien's life and the experiences that made their way into the story.
The forward tells about the writing of the novel, and the appedices give additional details about the text.
There are also many illustrations from other editions of the book. These are varied, from thought-provoking to not-provoking.
And the book is not too big. Some editions are simply too big to be read, but this book is reasonably sized so that you can actually READ IT! In fact, I have not read any other edition of The Hobbit for years, since the original annotated version came out.
The new edition is very much worthwhile. Enjoy!
The illustrations that are presented in the book are a thing of beauty. Not only are there a great many (every two or three pages or so) but they are incredibly colorful and really pop when you look at them. I do think the illustrator's style is to appear more colorful and simple at first glance, but at the same time you will look at the illustrations carefully and see the amount of time and effort that she put into this work. I love this style of simplicity and use of color.Read more ›

Electrical problem
1987 Chevy El Camino 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 96000 miles
I just replaced the fuel pump. The car still will not start. If I put gas in the throttle body it does start. So, is there any other areas I should be looking at to see why gas is not getting to the throttle body?

Product Description
As if that's not enough, there are pregnancies and presumed pregnancies galore in season four: Haley and Nathan, for sure, plus Lucas' mom Karen (Moira Kelly), who is carrying Keith's child. Two other characters either believe or maintain they are pregnant. Meanwhile, Nathan's mom, Deb (Barbara Alyn Woods), develops a personality-altering drug addiction and carries around a loaded pistol; Lucas' pal Skills (Antwon Tanner) gets a shot at playing basketball for the Ravens; and Mouth (Lee Norris) gets drunk and complains that girls only want to be his friend. Everything heads, inexorably, toward graduation day, which finds several crises simultaneously overlapping with the joy of moving on. As with every One Tree Hill season, The Complete Season Four is easy to get hooked on, with a very good cast and audacious storylines.--Tom Keogh
