Body of Song

Body of Song is the sixth solo album from punk/indie/alternative rock veteran Bob Mould (ex-Hüsker Dü/Sugar). It is his first studio album under his own name since 2002's controversial Modulate.

Album history
Body of Song was originally meant to be a semi-acoustic record as part of an informal trilogy that included Modulate and the electronic dance album Long Playing Grooves (recorded under the pseudonym Loudbomb). Mould had accumulated quite a backlog of material to this point. High Fidelity debuted during live solo acoustic performances back in 1997.

The project was initially recorded in Athens, GA with former Sugar bassist David Barbe playing bass and engineering, and Mould's 1998 tour band drummer Matt Hammon, at Barbe's Chase Park Transduction studio. After recording the initial version of the album, Mould decided to put the project aside temporarily.

After settling into a new home in Washington, DC and furthering his interest in club music by forming the monthly Blowoff event with friend and dance music artist Richard Morel, Mould began writing new guitar-based material in 2004, often trying out new songs on audiences when giving solo vocal-and-guitar performances in clubs all over the United States. After reviving four of the recordings from the 2002 album sessions, Mould began writing and recording material in his home studio setup in his DC home, then went into DC's venerated Inner Ear Studio in March 2005 with Fugazi drummer/Garland Of Hours multi-instrumentalist Brendan Canty and Inner Ear's owner/engineer Don Zientara (who worked on most of the Dischord Records catalog, including Fugazi and Minor Threat) and cut several new songs. Canty's occasional Fugazi collaborator and Garland Of Hours bandmate Amy Domingues was tapped to contribute cello to two songs on the album.

Body of Song contained much of the electronic influence of its predecessor Modulate, but Mould's trademark guitar work, which had been buried in the former album's mix, was brought back to the forefront. Mould's club music explorations also influenced two of Body of Song's tracks, "(Shine Your) Light Love Hope" and "I Am Vision, I Am Sound", and featured Mould treating his voice with a vocoder-style digital effect (similar to what had been used on Cher's voice on her song "Believe").

Release
Mould released Body of Song through a label other than directly through his own Granary Music imprint for the first time since leaving Rykodisc after the release of The Last Dog and Pony Show, signing a deal with Chapel Hill, NC-based independent label Yep Roc Records to distribute the album.

Body of Song began garnering much positive press attention in the weeks leading up to the release. An advance digital single release on iTunes of the song "Paralyzed" became an immediate hit, and a specially packaged limited edition version sold out most of its pressing through direct advance orders (shipped to customers two weeks prior to the street date) from Yep Roc's web site (the remaining stock was saved for brick-and-mortar retail sale).

In conjunction with the release of the album, Mould formed his first live touring band since 1998, with Canty on drums, Morel on keyboards and vocals, and Jason Narducy (Rockets Over Sweden, ex-Verbow) on bass, ending a "semi-retirement" from full-band performance.

Critical reception
The A.V. Club wrote that the album "finds Mould creating familiar-sounding music without simply rehashing fan favorites." The Washington Post deemed it "all over the map, a sonic mashup of Mould's career stops."

Your article on 2" Quad videotape...
Hi,

I noticed you had written an article about 2" Quad videotape. I did earlier as well (although more exhaustive, not to brag or sound arrogant about it), and I took the liberty of merging your article into mine and changing your article into a redirect to it.  You had some information in your original article that wasn't in mine, that I incorporated into it.  I hope you don't mind, please let me know what you think.

-Ryan, aka Misternuvistor

misternuvistor 08:51, August 12, 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the feedback on my article. AFAIK, You don't have to go through having to change any links from other articles, since I changed your old article (2" Quad videotape) to a redirect to mine (2" Quadruplex videotape) which I merged with yours.  So, I think it's all good, no extra effort required. :-).  So you used to live in Bismarck as well back in the day?  Wow, small world! :) As far as goings-on here, it has grown a bit since then, the whole north side is expanding (with Home Depot, Best Buy, Kohl's, and houses and condos being built left and right).  But it's still got the same quiet small-town vibe/je-ne-sais-quoi since the 1980s (I've lived here for 26 of my 28 years, with all of them here in ND).  It's good to hear from someone famililar with the Bis :)...

misternuvistor 22:17, August 14, 2005 (UTC)

 * Pardon my delayed reply, things have been hectic as of late :P. But yea, about changing your links, that sounds good, better to make it direct instead of going through re-directs, I agree with it being cleaner. Yes, Kennedy Avenue, my brother lives around that neighborhood (and the facilities for my 2nd PT job at North Dakota Public Radio are up around there as well, a bit further north though).  But yes, good to hear from you, and thanks a bunch for your contribution.

Dug Song
Dave, I've been looking around the internet, but have been unable to find any details regarding what happened to Dug. His monkey.org page is definately no help, it looks as thought it was defaced or Dug just wanted to disappear. I ask you about it because noone seems to have any clue what happened in the circles I regular. Did he quit development of OpenBSD? Janizary 21:00, 21 October 2005 (UTC)

G-Phoria

G-Phoria is a former annual video game awards show started in 2003 and ended in 2009, produced by and for the defunct G4 network.

Formerly the event was formatted like a regular awards ceremony taped in front of an audience, featuring celebrities such as Hal Sparks, Carmen Electra, Wilmer Valderrama and Anna Nicole Smith, and musical performances, along with a red carpet preview show, and some game premieres. In 2006, the control of the show was given over to X-Play, which made it a pure viewer's choice show hosted by Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb. After 2009 G-Phoria's honors were effectively blended into the traditional "year in review" show aired by X-Play in mid-December of each year until the show's end in 2012.

Emmanuel Félix de Wimpffen

Baron Emmanuel Felix de Wimpffen (13 September 1811 – 26 February 1884) was a French soldier and general.

Biography
A member of the Wimpffen family, de Wimpffen was born in Laon, the illegitimate son of Baron Félix Victor Charles Emmanuel de Wimpffen by Cornélie Bréda. His father was a general in the French Army who had been created a Baron of the Empire in 1810. In 1836 he was recognized by his father.

Entering the army from the military school of Saint-Cyr, he saw considerable active service in Algeria, and in 1840 became captain; in 1847 chef de bataillon. He first earned marked distinction in the Crimean War as colonel of a Turco-Persian regiment, and his conduct at the storm of the Mamelon won him the grade of general of brigade.

In the campaign of 1859 he was with General MacMahon at the battle of Magenta at the head of a brigade of Guard Infantry, and again won promotion on the battlefield. Between this campaign and the Franco-Prussian War, he was mainly employed in Algeria, and was not at first given a command in the ill-fated Army of the Rhine. But when the earlier battles revealed incapacity in the commander of the 5th corps, De Wimpffen was ordered to take it over, and was given a dormant commission appointing him to command the Army of Châlons in case of Marshal MacMahon's disablement. He only arrived at the front in time to rally the fugitives of the 5th Corps, beaten at Beaumont, and to march them to Sedan.

In the disastrous Battle of Sedan on the first of September, MacMahon was soon wounded, and the senior officer, General Ducrot, assumed the command. Ducrot was beginning to withdraw the troops when Wimpffen produced his commission and countermanded the orders. In consequence it fell to him to negotiate the surrender of the whole French army.

After his release from captivity, he lived in retirement at Algiers, and died at Paris in 1884. His later years were occupied with polemical discussions on the surrender of Sedan, the responsibility for which was laid upon him.

He wrote, amongst other works, Sedan (1871), La Situation de la France, et les reformes necessaires (1873) and La Nation armée (1875).

Private Secretary to the Sovereign

The private secretary to the sovereign is the senior operational member of the Royal Household of the sovereign of the United Kingdom (as distinct from the great officers of the Household, whose duties are largely ceremonial). The private secretary is the principal channel of communication between the monarch and the governments in most of the Commonwealth realms. They also have responsibility for the official programme and correspondence of the sovereign. Through these roles the position wields considerable influence. This is one of the most senior positions within the Royal Household.

The office of private secretary was first established in 1805. the position has been held exclusively by men. One woman has served as both deputy and assistant private secretary and an additional two women have served as assistant private secretaries. The current private secretary position is held by Sir Clive Alderton.

History
Colonel Herbert Taylor, who was appointed in 1805, is acknowledged as the first private secretary to the sovereign. However, the office was not formally established until 1867. Constitutionally there was some opposition on the part of ministers to the creation of an office which might grow to have considerable influence upon the sovereign. However, it was soon realised that the sovereign was in need of secretarial support, since his or her ministers had ceased to provide daily advice and support with the growth of ministerial government. Queen Victoria did not have a private secretary until she appointed General Charles Grey to the office in 1861; her husband Prince Albert had effectively been her secretary until his death.

Functions
The principal functions of the office are:
 * to act as a channel of communication between the sovereign and his or her governments, and to advise the sovereign on constitutional, political or governmental questions;
 * to organise the official programme of the sovereign, and to ensure its acceptability to both the sovereign and the government; these duties including drafting speeches, maintaining connection with other households, the Royal Train, The King's Helicopter, No. 32 (The Royal) Squadron RAF, and the armed forces — the latter through the Defence Services Secretary; and
 * to deal with the sovereign's official correspondence (including congratulatory messages), from members of the public, Royal Communications, and the Court Circular; and also to deal with the sovereign's private papers, the Royal Archives, and the monarchy's official website.

The position of private secretary is regarded as equivalent to that of the permanent secretary of a government department. The incumbent is always made a privy counsellor on appointment, and has customarily received a peerage upon retirement (a life peerage since 1972, although a small number have been given hereditary titles). Until 1965, peerages granted to Private Secretaries were hereditary baronies, with the exception of Lord Knollys, who was created a viscount in 1911. All private secretaries since the time of Lord Stamfordham have been created peers, with the exceptions of Sir Alexander Hardinge (inherited his father's barony in 1944), Sir Alan Lascelles (declined as he felt titles to be a show of self-importance) and Sir William Heseltine (who is an Australian).

Private secretaries to the sovereign are always appointed Knights Bachelor, or knights of one of the orders of chivalry, typically the Order of The Bath or the Royal Victorian Order. The same is true for Principal Private Secretaries to other members of the Royal Household, such as the Prince of Wales.

The private secretary is head of only one of the several operational divisions of the Royal Household. However, he or she is involved in co-ordination between various parts of the household, and has direct control over royal communications, the Royal Archives, and the office of the Defence Services Secretary.

There are 57 people employed in the office of the monarch's private secretary.

Liaison with the government
The private secretary is responsible for liaising with the Cabinet Secretary, the Privy Council Office (PCO), and the Ministry of Justice's Crown Office in relation to:
 * appointments that are formally made by the sovereign;
 * the scheduling of the meetings of the Privy Council; and
 * the transmission of official documents that need to be signed by the sovereign.

Security
Reporting to the private secretary is the role of director for security liaison which was established following a recommendation of the Security Commission in 2004. The post was first held by Brigadier Jeffrey Cook, OBE MC, who was in office 2004-2008. The private secretary has general oversight of security policy, though the master of the household is also involved, and the keeper of the Privy Purse has responsibility for the ceremonial bodyguards, such as the gentlemen at arms and the yeomen of the Guard.

Talk:List of current Eastern Conference NBA team rosters

Untitled
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please do not use rumors and alleged reports as an excuse to update a team's roster. If you want to update a team's roster, please check the team's roster on their official website for news and changes. This way, team roster information is kept official and up-to-date.Dknights411 18:32, August 2, 2005 (UTC)

Divison
Aren't we missing the SouthEast division here?

Nationalities
I don’t know enough about the NBA to know the background on these, but maybe someone who cares more can figure out what actual leagues or teams the foreign players came from. For all the American players, it lists their colleges, but for the foreign players, it usually just reiterates their nationality, which their flags already indicate. I’d rather know that Pau Gasol and Jose Calderon played in the ACB, or that Nenê Hilario played for Vasco. —Wiki Wikardo

Flags
Why do players from the UK have their regional flag, while players from the US/Canada only have their national flag? If a player from England can have England's flag instead of the UK flag, why can't a player from California have California's flag instead of the US flag? TJ Spyke 04:37, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * To answer your question about the use of state flags, we are notifying the COUNTRY that the person is from, not the state, so the American Flag is used since the country is in fact "The United States of America". So as far as America is concerned, this is really a non issue.  As for the British side of the aguement however, it's seems to be a but more complicated than that since many people consider England, Scotland and Wales to be seperate countries, AS WELL AS being a part of the "United Kingdom".  To be honest I don't really know nearly enough about this delima to give an educated opinion, but I personally woudln't mind if it's the Union Jack or not for players of English descent. Dknights411 19:48, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland have separate basketball organizations (a la USA Basketball) and national teams so it's proper for them to have separate flags. -- Howard  the   Duck  08:04, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Numbers
On each team's individual roster pages, it updates new numbers worn, but on this league roster site, it doesn't.-DANO- (talk) 18:24, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * On the "minirosters", they are updated too.-DANO- (talk) 18:42, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Updating
How come when an edit is made and saved, it isn't what you see immediately after?-DANO- (talk) 21:48, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Slow
Why is this one particular page (the article) so slow to load up?-DANO- (talk) 21:36, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

STILL SO SLOW!!!!!!!!!-DANO- (talk) 19:52, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

ERROR ON SITE
Why is Indiana here twice?-DANO- (talk) 18:22, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Jazz roster
Someone reinstate it.-DANO- (talk) 23:11, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

PROBLEMS
Now, the Blazers site is gone.-DANO- (talk) 18:21, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
 * NOW OKLAHOMA CITY TOO!!!!!!!!!-DANO- (talk) 04:36, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Looks like there is a problem with too many templates being used on the same page. Maybe it makes sense to break this page into two pages, one for each conference. --Esprqii (talk) 15:58, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

Also, some moron has put in his name for Kobe Bryant. Someone with greater technical ability than I needs to fix this page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.230.217.247 (talk) 22:44, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

LeBron
LeBron James is listed erroneously on the New York Knicks roster. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.221.218.86 (talk) 16:28, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Lebron James is listed as two separate entities; one in the Miami Heat roster, and another in the Golden State Warriors roster, as of July 19, 2010 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.179.93.18 (talk) 18:08, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Problems on the site
First, can we set a proper Utah Jazz template? Whenever the right one is there, it doesn't show up. Also, let's do something about this site's slowness. I always have trouble loading it up.-DANO- (talk) 20:22, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Utah Jazz
Can we get a proper template for that team's roster to permanently show up?-DANO- (talk) 19:03, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Something is wrong here
Now Portland's roster is gone, plus Utah's. This should be fixed.-DANO- (talk) 23:24, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Edit request from Kungamatata, 19 July 2011
I would like you to add the following sentences under the heading "Eastern Conference": 'There a total of 15 teams in the Eastern Conference. The current leading team of the Eastern Conference are the Miami Heat.' The following sentences should be added because I think it would be great information for the article and for the people viewing it. I have added the following sentences in the article "List of Western Conference teams" only in a different way. The way it's different by these sentences is that it says Western instead of Eastern and that the leading team for that conference are the Dallas Mavericks.

The phrase "original research" in this context refers to untested theories; data, statements, concepts and ideas that have not been published in a reputable publication.

Jerome, a published scholar who did the original reseach on Authentic Matthew wrote,
 * Matthew, also called Levi, who used to be a tax collector and later an apostle, composed the Gospel of Christ, which was first published in Judea in Hebrew script for the sake of those of the circumcision who believed. This Gospel was afterwards translated into Greek (and the Greek has been lost) though by what author uncertain. The Hebrew original has been preserved to this present day in the library of Caesarea, which Pamphilus diligently gathered. I have also had the opportunity of having this volume transcribed for me by the Nazarenes of Beroea, Syria, who use it. (On Illustrious Men 3)

He further wrote,
 * In the Gospel which the Nazarenes and the Ebionites use which we have recently translated from Hebrew to Greek, and which most people call The Authentic Gospel of Matthew

George Powell (playwright)

George Powell (1668? – 1714) was a 17th-century London actor and playwright who was a member of the United Company. He was the son of the actor Martin Powell, a long-standing member of the King's Company.

Plays
In his playwrighting Powell has been called 'an unscrupulous and opportunistic appropriator, gleaning materials from a variety of sources'. He was embroiled in a plagiarism scandal after writing a misogynistic play called The Imposture Defeated; or, A Trick to Cheat the Devil, first performed in September 1697. This play portrayed the proper treatment of an adulteress as brutal confinement and isolation from others to punish her and prevent the spread of her attitude. It is widely accepted that Powell had plagiarised from the then unpublished manuscript of Mary Pix's The Deceiver Deceived. Theatre critic Charles Gildon called Powell's version the inferior of the two.

Powell also wrote the plays Alphonso, King of Naples (first performed in December 1690), A Very Good Wife (first performed in April 1693), Bonduca: or, The British Heroine (1695) and The Treacherous Brothers (first performed in January 1690) under his own name. Each of these plays premièred at London's Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. In collaboration with John Verbruggen, he wrote A new opera called Brutus of Alba: or, Augusta's Triumph, first performed in 1696 at Dorset Garden, London. All of the works he wrote or co-wrote were tragedies.

The United Company broke in two in 1694, with the walking out of senior actors including Thomas Betterton, Elizabeth Barry, and Anne Bracegirdle. It is unlikely that Powell was invited to join them: while he was skilled and experienced, he was also notorious for his bad temper and alcoholism (Milhous).

At the première of John Vanbrugh's The Relapse in November 1696, Powell was according to Vanbrugh so drunk that when playing the seducer Worthy he molested the heroine Amanda in a much more physical way than the script provided for.

He was married to the actress Mary Powell.

Selected roles

 * Jack Rakish in Woman's Wit by Colley Cibber (1697)
 * Tamerlane by Nicholas Rowe (1701)

At Swim, Two Boys

At Swim, Two Boys (2001) is a novel by Irish writer Jamie O'Neill. The title is a punning allusion to Flann O'Brien's At Swim-Two-Birds. The book is written in a stream-of-consciousness style, which has led to favourable comparisons to James Joyce.

Ten years after publication, Alison Walsh, reviewing the year 2001 for the Sunday Independent, called it "a vintage one in Irish writing", specifically naming the "unforgettable" At Swim, Two Boys alongside books by Dermot Bolger, Eoin Colfer and Nuala O'Faolain. Terry Pender commented on At Swim, Two Boys: "With only this work O'Neill can take his rightful place among the great Irish writers beginning with Joyce and ending with Roddy Doyle".

Plot summary
Set in Dublin before and during the 1916 Easter Rising, At Swim, Two Boys tells the love story of two young Irish men: Jim Mack and Doyler Doyle. Jim goes to school on a scholarship (for which he is looked down upon) – he is quiet, studious, thoughtful, and naïve. In contrast, Doyler is outspoken, rebellious, brave, and affectionate. Doyler might once have received a scholarship, like Jim, but Doyler withdrew from school to find work and support his impoverished family, leading the pair to grow apart. They have an additional connection through their fathers, who served in the army together during the Boer War, and were once best friends.

Events of 1915
Jim attends a Catholic school, regularly attends church, and plays in the school's flute band, where he is the object of his Latin teacher's obsession. Brother Polycarp likes to have extra prayer sessions with him alone, during which Jim is subject to mild sexual pawing whose nature he does not understand; Jim reminds Polycarp of his own past. Unbeknown to his father, Jim is offered the chance of a vocation to join the brothers of the church. When Doyler joins the flute band, their old friendship is renewed. Doyler takes Jim out to the Forty Foot a well known swimming area in Dublin Bay for a swim. The two boys make a pact: Doyler will teach Jim to swim, and in a year, on Easter Sunday, 1916, they will swim to the distant island of Muglins Rock and claim it for themselves. As their friendship grows, Jim reconsiders his vocation, ultimately refusing; Brother Polycarp is emotionally stricken and has to resign. Meanwhile, patriots appear on the novel's stage: Madame Eveline MacMurrough continues to support the idea of Ireland's liberty. The clergy also supports the patriotic body of thought, in particular, Father Amen O'Toiler – who pushes the boys church's flute band to resemble a regimental band. Even Jim's father, Mr. Mack, who is proud having served as a soldier in an Irish Battalion, is swollen with pride for the boys in MacMurrough's garden, seeing them all in uniform kilts.

Only Anthony MacMurrough, the nephew of Eveline MacMurrough, turns away from their politics. After his return from imprisonment in England, for acts of gross indecency, his nationalist aunt Eveline MacMurrough is determined to redeem his reputation through a prosperous marriage. In a garden party, Eveline MacMurrough introduces him to Irish society, pushing him to follow her patriotic ideals. However, MacMurrough is still caught up in his memories of imprisonment, conversing with the internal voice of his dead prison-mate, Scrotes, on the fate of homosexuals.

In the meantime, Doyler works to help support his family, which has been driven to poverty by Mr. Doyle's alcoholism and illness. Doyler accepts payment from MacMurrough in return for sexual favours. Although Doyler is depicted as accepting his own sexuality, his response to the older man is ambiguous and ultimately MacMurrough fails to attract the boy. Doyler, being a vehement Socialist and outcast from the society of his home community, leaves home and joins the Irish Citizen Army at Dublin.

Events of 1916
Jim, bereft of the pal of his heart Doyler, befriends MacMurrough, who becomes a mentor to Jim, teaching about swimming as well as homosexuality and philosophy. MacMurrough finds that he is unable to rid himself of his fascination with the two boys, their relationship and their pact to swim to the Muglins and claim them for Ireland. The night before Easter Sunday, Doyler leaves his duties as army member and visits Jim. They renew their pact, confessing their love for each other. The next morning, Easter Sunday, Jim and Doyler successfully swim to the Muglins. Not only do they claim the islands with an Irish green flag, but they also make love to one another. On their swim back to the Forty Foot, as Doyler is close to drowning, MacMurrough rescues both of them.

While Doyler rests and recovers at MacMurrough's house, Jim feels responsible for the duties his friend cannot carry out. As the Easter Rising takes place, Jim grabs the uniform of Doyler and joins the fighting for the Irish Volunteers at Dublin downtown. Meanwhile, MacMurrough does not realize Jim's action.

When Doyler discovers what Jim has done, both Doyler and MacMurrough go searching for Jim. As they approach downtown Dublin where the fighting is occurring, Doyler sees Jim standing in the open. Just as the two are about to be reunited, Doyler is himself fatally wounded.

Characters
Jim is the son of shopkeeper Mr. Mack, who runs a small shop for everyday people's needs at Glasthule, close to Dublin. Jim is depicted as a naïve scholar boy and has a shy appearance: Jim Mack is worried about self-abuse and going to hell as he tries to obey to rules of church. He responds to the more experienced Doyler with friendship, which turns to love – possibly even desire, but recoils from Doyler's movements towards intimacy; he would love to kiss his friend, but cannot. Despite his naivete and inhibitions, he has a clear mind, sharp ideas and thoughts. He sees the pact with Doyler to swim to the Muglins as a symbol of their union, their very own experience which no one can take from them.

Doyler is the rough diamond son of Mr. Doyle, who is Mr. Mack's old army pal. Doyler has grown up in poverty, hence he already knows quite a lot about life and is in no way naïve. Doyler used to be Jim's friend when they were about twelve, but Doyler left town for some time looking for work and his Irish roots. As Doyler returns, and the story unfolds, Jim and Doyler are both aged 15 to 16 years old. Doyler is sympathetic to the Irish workers front and later joins the Irish Citizen Army.

Madame Eveline MacMurrough is depicted as the daughter of a republican figure famous in the history of the local patriotic movement. In the name of Ireland she supports the troops at the Western Front with socks to warm the soldiers' feet, and organizes a garden party to enliven the patriotism of the local society and to support its clubs. Finally, she even backs the Republicans by providing them with weapons for the Easter Rising.

Anthony MacMurrough is the nephew of Eveline MacMurrough. Jim calls him McEmm as the story develops. Prior to the novel's action, MacMurrough has served a prison sentence in England of two years' hard labour for acts of gross indecency with a chauffeur-mechanic boy. As he returns to Ireland, his previous cellmate Scrotes follows in his mind, providing an internal ghostly friend, supporting the soliloquizing of MacMurrough. He stays at the home of his nationalist aunt Eveline MacMurrough, who pushes him to become a patriotic Irishman, mentoring and leading the young, and, in her imagination, eventually marrying. MacMurrough conforms to some degree but recognises his homosexuality as a permanent character trait. It is only when he becomes a mentor to Jim and Doyler individually, teaching them about swimming as well as homosexuality and philosophy, that he finds some degree of personal fulfilment.

Earthfall 2005
Welsh dance company Earthfall created their 2005 production of At Swim Two Boys as the company's second collaboration with Jamie O’Neill and incorporated both live and archive film footage, live music, dance, and text.

The production was inspired by Jamie O’Neill's award-winning novel of the same name. Set in Ireland in 1916, the work juxtaposes the developing love affair between two young men with political turmoil in Ireland and the slaughter on the Western Front – contrasting the dream of national liberation and the search for personal freedom. The production is staged in a slowly filling lake in front of a waterfall and performed by two dancers and two musicians.

The original production toured for three years over 5 seasons with over 100 performances, playing to sell-out audiences in the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, Croatia, and Germany.

Earthfall 2011
Earthfall toured a re-edition of this dance production across the UK in Autumn 2011, to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the publication of the book.

Deux garçons, la mer
In September 2014 a play of this name was performed in Paris. Christophe Garro adapted the novel with Jamie's approval, and the characters of Jim, Doyler, McMurrough, and many others were created on stage. An English version of the play is available, and may be produced also. For more information visit the website : deuxgarconslamer.com

Rochester, NY 2018
In December 2018 a play of this name was performed in Rochester, NY at the Multi-Use Community Cultural Center.

Robert Ryman

Robert Ryman (May 30, 1930 – February 8, 2019) was an American painter identified with the movements of monochrome painting, minimalism, and conceptual art. He was best known for abstract, white-on-white paintings. He lived and worked in New York City.

Life and career
Ryman was born in Nashville, Tennessee. After studying saxophone at the Tennessee Polytechnic Institute in Cookeville, between 1948 and 1949, and at the George Peabody College for Teachers between 1949 and 1950, Ryman enlisted in the United States army reserve corps and was assigned to an army reserve band during the Korean War. Ryman moved to New York City in 1953, intending to become a professional jazz saxophonist. He had lessons with pianist Lennie Tristano, which later informed his painting. At that time he was renting a room in the home of a Russian cello player. Ryman soon took a day job at the Museum of Modern Art as a security guard to make ends meet, and met the artists Sol LeWitt and Dan Flavin, who were co-workers with him at MoMA. Captivated by the newly acquired abstract expressionist works of Mark Rothko, Willem de Kooning, Clyfford Still, Jackson Pollock and Barnett Newman, Ryman became curious about the act of painting. From 1953 to 1960, he worked at the MoMA as a guard in order to be close to painting. He purchased some art supplies at a local store and began experimenting in his apartment in 1953.

Ryman had a close relationship with the conservator Orrin Riley, who would frequently give him advice on archival materials, many times testing the acidity of media the artist was interested in using. He was interviewed by the television writer and producer Barbaralee Diamonstein twice, once for the book and video production Inside New York's Art World in 1979 and again for Inside the Art World in 1994.

In 2009 he participated in the art project Find Me, by Gema Alava, in company of artists Lawrence Weiner, Merrill Wagner and Paul Kos.

His most famous quote is "There is never any question of what to paint only how to paint."

In 1961 the artist married art historian Lucy Lippard. They had a son together, Ethan Ryman, in 1964, who was first a sound engineer and now an artist. The marriage ended in divorce. In 1969 he married artist Merrill Wagner. Robert Ryman's sons from his second marriage, Cordy Ryman and Will Ryman, are also artists and currently work in New York City.

Ryman died on February 8, 2019, at the age of 88.

Painting
Ryman was often classified as a minimalist, but he preferred to be known as a "realist", explaining he was not interested in creating illusions, but only in presenting the materials he used in compositions at their face value. As he wrote in a statement for a 2010 exhibition at Pace Wildenstein, "I am not a picture painter. I work with real light and space, and since real light is an important aspect of the paintings, it always presents some problems." The majority of his works feature abstract expressionist-influenced brushwork in white or off-white paint on square canvas or metal surfaces. A lifelong experimenter with media, Ryman painted and/or drew on canvas, linen, steel, aluminum, plexiglas, lumasite, vinyl, fiberglass, corrugated paper, burlap, newsprint, wallpaper, jute sacking, fiberplate, a composite material called gator board, feather board, handmade paper, and acrilivin. He used painted and/or drew with oil, acrylic, encaustic, Lascaux acrylic, casein, enamel, pastel, oil pastel, graphite, guache, and enamelac.

By the time Ryman began working, older artists like Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Philip Guston had already reduced painting to its essences. In 1955 Ryman began what he considered to be his earliest professional work, a largely monochrome painting titled Orange Painting (1955–59). In 1968-69 he created his Classico series of compositions consisting of multi-panel paintings on a specific type of paper called Classico. For each work in the series, Ryman attached a configuration of heavy, creamy white sheets of the paper to a wall with masking tape, painted the sheets with a shiny white acrylic paint, removed the tape when the sheets were dry, mounted them on foamcore, and reattached them to the wall. The built-up paint edge tracing the outline of masking tape and the ripped paper left behind give witness to the process of creation. The various works in the Classico series differ in the organization of paper sheets, the configuration of tape traces, and the painted shape. Just as the Classico works were titled after the type of paper used as a medium, the so-called Surface Veil works from 1970 were named for the brand of fiberglass upon which the smaller pieces in this group were painted. Some of the 12-foot square paintings from the series were executed not on fiber-glass but on cotton or linen. In each of these works the pigment appears to form a membrane over the support due to the differing degrees of opacity and translucence in the white paint juxtaposed with areas where less of it has been applied, leaving the fabric exposed. These disruptions in the painting’s skin often mark the literal pauses between the artist’s working sessions.

From around 1975 until 2003, Ryman often affixed his paintings to the wall with metal brackets. He would design each set of brackets specifically for each piece and have them constructed by a local metals fabricator.

Prints and Drawings
Although Ryman is most known for his paintings, he also experimented with printmaking creating etchings, aquatints, lithographs, silkscreens and relief prints. Like his paintings, his prints are readily identifiable by their predominantly square monochromatic surfaces exploring the values, textures and effects of various whites and other colors printed on paper and aluminum.

His prints and works on paper, have not yet been given the same attention, but his approach to making prints and drawings is the same. Working with the particular characteristics of each medium and process, Ryman, from 1969 onwards, explored new territory of making editions, all with a minimum of materials. In his printmaking, Ryman sought to control the texture of his surfaces in ways that he would continue to explore for the rest of his career. As in his paintings, his prints require viewers to pay attention, look closely and observe subtleties. Ryman’s prints both challenge a viewer and reward close looking.

He stated that his titles were meaningless, and that they only existed as a form of identification. Ryman actually preferred the term of "name" for an artwork instead of a title because he was not creating a picture or making reference to anything except the media and the materials. The "names" of his works often come from the names of art supplies, companies, or are just general words that do not carry specific connotation.

Exhibitions
Ryman had his first solo show at the Paul Bianchini Gallery in New York City in 1967 at the age of 36. His first show in Europe came the following year at the Galerie Heiner Friedrich, Munich. One year later, Ryman was included in When Attitudes Become Form, a seminal exhibition of works by Minimalist and Conceptual artists organized by the Kunsthalle Bern. His first solo show at a museum was in 1972 at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, displaying thirty-eight of Ryman’s works from 1965 to 1971. Ryman's works were represented in documentas 5 (1972), 6 (1977), and 7 (1982), in Kassel, in the Venice Biennale (1976, 1978, 1980 and 2007), and in the Whitney Biennial (1977, 1987, 1995). His first retrospective was organized by the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, in 1974. He was included in five shows at the Daniel Weinberg Gallery, including two solo exhibitions: Robert Ryman: Recent Paintings (1984) and Robert Ryman: Recent Painting (1994). In 1993-94, the largest retrospective to date of Ryman's paintings, curated by Robert Storr, was exhibited at the Tate Gallery, Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis.

Robert Ryman estate is represented by David Zwirner.

Collections
The Hallen für Neue Kunst, a former contemporary art museum in Schaffhausen, Switzerland (closed in 2014) had the largest public collection of Ryman's work, permanently exhibiting 29 pieces created from 1959 to 2007. In 2008 Ryman undertook a major reinstallation of his galleries at Hallen für Neue Kunst. Returning to the museum in 2008 — for the first time in 12 years — to revisit the permanent exhibition of his work that was first installed in 1983, he decided to transform the galleries into a “Gesamtkunstwerk” — a synthesis, or total experience, composed of 32 paintings from 50 years of work.

In 2017, Ryman donated 21 painting to the Dia Art Foundation’s permanent collection, making it the only site with an extensive permanent grouping, featuring works made as early as the late 1950s and continuing up to 2003. Other major museums collecting his works include the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Tate, London; the Art Institute of Chicago and the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.

Recognition and reception
A recipient of numerous honors, Ryman was awarded a John Simon Guggenheim Foundation Scholarship (1973), the Skowhegan Medal from the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (1985). He was a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters after 1994, and assumed the role of the organization’s Vice President in 2003.

In 2005, Ryman was awarded the Praemium Imperiale.

2009 saw the publication of Robert Ryman: Critical Texts Since 1967, edited by Vittorio Colaizzi and Karsten Schubert and published by Ridinghouse. The book charts the gradual evolution of the reception of and reaction to Ryman’s art. A comprehensive selection of over 60 essays and exhibition reviews has been collated into one volume, including texts by some of the most influential art historians and critics of their time; Yve-Alain Bois, Donald B. Kuspit, Lucy R. Lippard, Robert Storr and others.

Ryman's painting Bridge (1980) sold for $20.6 million at a Christie's auction in 2015.

In 2024, Ryman had a retrosepective called Robert Ryman: The Act of Looking at the Musée de l’Orangerie in Paris.

Robert Ryman's estate is represented by David Zwirner and Xavier Hufkens.

James Smith McDonnell

James Smith "Mac" McDonnell (April 9, 1899 – August 22, 1980) was an American aviator, engineer, and businessman. He was an aviation pioneer and founder of McDonnell Aircraft Corporation, later McDonnell Douglas (which is now Boeing, after the latter's company merger in 1997), and the James S. McDonnell Foundation.

Early life
Born in Denver, Colorado, McDonnell was of Scottish descent and raised in Little Rock, Arkansas, and graduated from Little Rock High School in 1917. He was a graduate of Princeton University class of 1921, and earned a Master's of Science in Aeronautical Engineering from MIT in 1925. While attending MIT he joined the Delta Upsilon fraternity. After graduating from MIT, he was hired by Thomas Towle for the Stout Metal Airplane Division of the Ford Motor Company. In 1927, he was hired by the Hamilton Metalplane Company to develop similar metal monoplanes. He then went on to Huff Daland Airplane Company.

Career
In 1928, McDonnell left Huff Daland and set up J.S. McDonnell & Associates, and with the help of two other engineers, McDonnell set out to design his first aircraft with his company name. This aircraft then competed in a safe airplane contest which was sponsored by the Daniel Guggenheim Fund for the Promotion of Aeronautics and which offered a $100,000 prize for the winning entry. His design was the Doodle Bug. After the failure of the Doodle Bug to win the contest (the Curtiss Tanager won) or any commercial orders due to the Great Depression, he dissolved his firm and worked for the Great Lakes Aircraft Company in 1931 before he was hired as an engineer for the Glenn L. Martin Company.

McDonnell resigned from Martin in 1938 and founded McDonnell Aircraft Corporation in 1939. Headquartered in St. Louis, the company quickly grew into a principal supplier of fighter aircraft to the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy—including the F-4 Phantom II—and built the Mercury and Gemini space capsules.

In 1967, McDonnell Aircraft merged with the Douglas Aircraft Company to create McDonnell Douglas. Later that year Douglas Aircraft Company's space and missiles division became part of a new subsidiary called McDonnell Douglas Astronautics, located in Huntington Beach, California, producing the Delta series of launch vehicles. The new combined company also developed the F-15 Eagle and F/A-18 Hornet fighters.

He served as chairman of the United Nations Association of the United States, and in 1958 his company became the first organization in the world to celebrate United Nations Day as a paid holiday. In 1980 McDonnell was awarded the NAS Award in Aeronautical Engineering from the National Academy of Sciences.

He was succeeded as Chair of McDonnell Douglas by his nephew Sanford N. McDonnell in 1980.

McDonnell Douglas and Boeing consolidated in 1997.

Personal life
James McDonnell was married twice. His first marriage, to Mary Elizabeth Finney, took place in Baltimore, Maryland, on June 30, 1934. They had two children, James Smith McDonnell, III, born January 28, 1936, and John Finney McDonnell, born March 18, 1938. Mary McDonnell died on July 6, 1949. He married Priscilla Brush Forney on April 1, 1956, and adopted her three children from a previous marriage.

McDonnell died of a stroke on August 22, 1980. He was buried in Bellefontaine Cemetery in St. Louis.

Legacy
McDonnell founded the James S. McDonnell Foundation in 1950, which supports scientific, educational, and charitable causes on a local, national, and international level. The McDonnell Center for the Space Sciences is named after him, which he co-founded - established in 1974. McDonnell Hall, housing part of the physics department at his alma mater, Princeton, also bears his name and an airplane-inspired design.

The six James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professorships at Princeton University were established by a gift from the James S. McDonnell Foundation in memory of James S. McDonnell. Among the Princeton faculty members who have held the professorship are Val Fitch, Joseph Taylor, Anne Treisman, Curtis G. Callan, Lyman A. Page, Eddie S. Glaude, and numerous others.

Tributes
McDonnell Park in St. Louis County is named in honor of James Smith McDonnell, as are the McDonnell Planetarium of the Saint Louis Science Center in Forest Park, the James S. McDonnell classroom and laboratory building at Princeton University, the James S. McDonnell Hall at Washington University in St. Louis, and James S. McDonnell Boulevard and James S. McDonnell Prologue Room near St. Louis Lambert International Airport.

The Arkansas Aviation Historical Society selected McDonnell in 1980 as one of five initial inductees in the Arkansas Aviation Hall of Fame.

McDonnell was enshrined in the National Aviation Hall of Fame in 1977.

Bundy tube

Bundy tube, sometimes called Bundy pipe, is type of double-walled low-carbon steel tube manufactured by rolling a copper-coated steel strip through 720 degrees and resistance brazing the overlapped seam in a process called Bundywelding. Some key sources are Shelley Automation ltd in the UK and SVS Refcomp Pvt Ltd in India

History
It may be zinc or terne coated for corrosion protection. It is used in automotive hydraulic brake lines in cars manufactured in the US since the 1930s.

The Bundy Tubing Company, started in the US, was bought in the 1980s by what is now the British company TI Fluid system .

Kunifer pipe
A 1969 study by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) recommended the replacement of Bundy tube with 90-10 copper-nickel alloy UNS C70600 (Kunifer pipe) because of corrosion concerns. Kunifer pipe has since been adopted by European automakers Volvo, Rolls-Royce, Lotus Cars, Aston-Martin, Porsche, and Audi. Bundy tube still retains the advantage of higher rigidity, which means less volume expansion under pressure.

Poseidonis

Poseidonis is the fictional last remnant of the lost continent of Atlantis, mentioned by Algernon Blackwood in his short story "Sand" (published in 1912) in his collection Four Weird Tales and also detailed in a series of short stories by Clark Ashton Smith. Smith based Poseidonis on Theosophical scriptures about Atlantis (such as Secret Doctrine by Helena Blavatsky), and his concept of "the last isle of foundering Atlantis" is echoed by the isle of Númenor in J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium.

Stories in Smith's Poseidonis cycle

 * "The Muse of Atlantis" (prose poem)
 * "The Last Incantation"
 * "The Death of Malygris"
 * "Tolometh" (poem)
 * "The Double Shadow"
 * "A Voyage to Sfanomoë"
 * "A Vintage from Atlantis"
 * "Atlantis: a poem" (poem)

Other writers
In the Pusadian series of short stories by L. Sprague de Camp, "Poseidonis" refers to the fictional lost island continent of Pusad, whose name was later corrupted to Poseidonis by the Greeks and whose fate was supposedly one basis for the Atlantis legend.

The 1929 Malay-language novel Drama dari Krakatau, about the Krakatoa eruption, depicts the origins of the Malay archipelago from rising sea levels caused by the sinking of Poseidonis.

Miss Brazil

Miss Brazil (Miss Brasil) is a Brazilian national beauty pageant, held annually since 1954. The competition has gone through several incarnations throughout its history, while its main purpose has been to select the Brazilian representative for the Miss Universe pageant. From 2020-2023, the pageant has been owned by Brazilian businessman Winston Ling, while Marthina Brandt has served as its national director.

Early years and golden age (1954–1972)
Since 1900, competitions in the vein of Miss Brazil had existed sporadically throughout the country in a non-consecutive manner. Violeta Lima Castro, crowned Miss Brazil 1900, is sometimes considered the first Miss Brazil, although the records surrounding her being the alleged first winner are inconsistent and some records allege that a different woman was crowned as the first Miss Brazil during the time of the Empire of Brazil in 1865. Overall, evidence supports that eight women had been crowned Miss Brazil in the early years before a Miss Brazil pageant was formally created. The Miss Brazil competition was formally created in 1954, and held annually since. Its inaugural edition was held at the Palácio Quitandinha in Petrópolis, and used to select a Brazilian representative for Miss Universe 1954, Brazil's first time competing in Miss Universe. Martha Rocha ultimately won the title, and is thus considered the first formal Miss Brazil winner. Following this inaugural event, Miss Brazil was held annually to elect a woman to represent Brazil at Miss Universe, becoming the first time where a national beauty pageant was held regularly in Brazil. Catalina Swimwear, the founder and main sponsor of Miss Universe, became sponsors of the Miss Brazil competition and provided swimwear for the contestants.

Diários Associados began promoting and broadcasting the competition in 1955, which significantly increased press coverage and recognition of the competition in Brazil, turning it into the second-most watched event on Brazilian television, behind only the matches of the Brazil national football team. Miss Brazil entered its golden age in the 1960s, with Iêda Maria Vargas winning Miss Universe 1963 and Martha Vasconcellos winning Miss Universe 1968, its only wins in the competition. Lúcia Petterle also later was crowned Miss World 1971, making Brazil one of the few countries at the time to have won both of the world's two major international beauty pageants. At the time, the first runner-up of Miss Brazil was nominated to compete at Miss World.

Move to Brasília (1973–1980)
In 1973, the organizers of Miss Brazil opted to move the pageant from Ginásio do Maracanãzinho in Rio de Janeiro, where it had traditionally been held, to Nilson Nelson Gymnasium in Brasília. This was done for both strategic and political reasons: most connecting flights throughout Brazil stopped in Brasília, Brasília was the location of the headquarters of Diários Associados, and being the federal capital, the president of Brazil could be involved in greeting the contestants.

Following the move of the competition to Brasília, Miss Brazil was faced with a number of problems in regards to viewership and sponsors. The competition began to experience a decrease in popularity, both in television viewers and ticket sales. This problem was exacerbated with the withdrawal of key sponsor Helena Rubinstein Incorporated in 1976. Rede Tupi continued to broadcast Miss Brazil until its bankruptcy in 1980.

SBT and continued decline (1981–1999)
Following the bankruptcy of Rede Tupi in 1980, Miss Brazil was transferred to Sistema Brasileiro de Televisão (SBT) and its owner Silvio Santos. During this period, Marlene Brito was hired by SBT as the new national director of Miss Brazil, tasked with overseeing day-to-day operations and the preparation of contestants. During the SBT era, Santos became known as the face of Miss Brazil, hosting the pageant every year. However, the competition did not see an uptick in support or viewership, and continued to decline in popularity. In 1990, SBT dropped Miss Brazil from its scheduling due to the continued downturn in viewership.

Following the withdrawal of SBT, Brito opted to leave the network and found her own company to promote Brazilian beauty pageants, called The Most of Brazilian Beauty. Brito organized the national pageants in 1991 and 1992, but due to a lack of sponsorship, was forced to appoint a titleholder instead in 1993. The following year Paulo Max took over the Miss Brazil organization, and after his death in 1996, his children Paulo Max Filho and Ana Paula Sang organized the competition from 1997 until 1999.

Gaeta (2000–2011)
In 2000, Brazilian event planning company Gaeta Promoções e Eventos took over the duties of organizing Miss Brazil, through a deal that saw the competition broadcast through the CNT Rio de Janeiro local station. In 2002, the competition returned to national television after being transferred to the newly created RedeTV!. The pageant entered into a partnership with Rede Bandeirantes (Band) in 2003, which saw renewed media promotion throughout Brazil. This agreement led to a reemergence of popularity amongst the Brazilian public, with Miss Universe 2003 becoming the most-watched event of the night in Brazil according to the Brazilian Institute of Public Opinion and Statistics (IBOPE).

Band (2012–2019)
In 2012, the Brazilian franchise for Miss Universe was awarded entirely to Band, ending their partnership with Gaeta and removing Gaeta from the Brazilian franchise entirely. From 2012 until 2015, the Brazilian media conglomerate Grupo Bandeirantes de Comunicação was responsible for directing the national pageant and selecting candidates from the 27 state pageants.

Polishop partnership (2015–2019)
In 2015, amidst severe financial hardship, Band entered into an agreement with Brazilian retailer Polishop, under the leadership of Polishop owner João Appolinário. With this agreement, Band was only responsible for the annual broadcast of the competition, with Polishop responsible for all other management and organization. During this time, the competition was renamed to Miss Brasil Be Emotion.

Miss Universe Brazil (2020–present)
In July 2019, the partnership between Band and Polishop came to an end due to a decrease in interest from the Brazilian public, and the Brazilian press alleged that Brazil would not have a representative at Miss Universe 2020.

In October 2019, Natália Guimarães confirmed that she had news regarding the future of Miss Brazil, and that fans should expect a "new era" for the competition. Band later confirmed that they were not abandoning the Miss Brazil brand, but would be dependent on new sponsorship. In March 2020, it was confirmed that Band's license with the Miss Universe Organization was not renewed.

In July 2020, it was announced that Brazilian businessman Winston Ling had purchased the Brazilian franchise for Miss Universe, and that the competition would be rebranded as U Miss Brazil (later changed to Miss Universe Brazil the following year). In November 2020, Marthina Brandt, a former Miss Brazil winner, was hired as the national director of the newly created competition. The organization appointed a representative to be its inaugural titleholder in 2020, and held its first national pageant in 2021.

Contestants
Each year, contestants are chosen through a series of state pageants held throughout Brazil (the 26 states and the Federal District) in the second half of the year before and the first half of the year before the national competition. Over time, the states represented at Miss Brazil have varied slightly. The following 27 state pageants (the Federal District, Distrito Federal, is counted as a state) currently send contestants to Miss Brazil:

 * Miss Acre
 * Miss Alagoas
 * Miss Amapá
 * Miss Amazonas
 * Miss Bahia
 * Miss Ceará
 * Miss Distrito Federal
 * Miss Espírito Santo
 * Miss Goiás
 * Miss Maranhão
 * Miss Mato Grosso
 * Miss Mato Grosso do Sul
 * Miss Minas Gerais
 * Miss Pará
 * Miss Paraíba
 * Miss Paraná
 * Miss Pernambuco
 * Miss Piauí
 * Miss Rio de Janeiro
 * Miss Rio Grande do Norte
 * Miss Rio Grande do Sul
 * Miss Rondônia
 * Miss Roraima
 * Miss Santa Catarina
 * Miss São Paulo
 * Miss Sergipe
 * Miss Tocantins

The state competitions are organized by state organizations, and contestants must reside or attend school in the state they choose to represent. State Organizations have their own discretion as to how they wish to field candidates for the state contests. Some choose to organize a number of local contests corresponding to cities or municipalities within the state, while others use closed casting processes.

Newton-second

The newton-second (also newton second; symbol: N⋅s or N s) is the unit of impulse in the International System of Units (SI). It is dimensionally equivalent to the momentum unit kilogram-metre per second (kg⋅m/s). One newton-second corresponds to a one-newton force applied for one second.

 * $$\vec F \cdot t = \Delta m \vec v$$

It can be used to identify the resultant velocity of a mass if a force accelerates the mass for a specific time interval.

Definition
Momentum is given by the formula:
 * $$\mathbf{p} = m \mathbf{v},$$

 * $$\mathbf{p}$$ is the momentum in newton-seconds (N⋅s) or "kilogram-metres per second" (kg⋅m/s)
 * $$m$$ is the mass in kilograms (kg)
 * $$\mathbf{v}$$ is the velocity in metres per second (m/s)

Examples
This table gives the magnitudes of some momenta for various masses and speeds.

Talk:Northern blot

Untitled
this page needs some history, and some scientific references. when did western blotting, northern blotting, etc, start? there should be a cited paper for each.

Northern should be written like nortern not Northern because it is not derivated from a name like Southern blotting.

I disagree - the name is a molecular biology joke, and as such it needs to follow the style of "Southern". Hence it should be Northern. If this is not acceptable then it should really be called an RNA blot or similar. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.27.171.207 (talk) 16:50, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
