what is a half note with a dot
|
<P> In Western musical notation, a dotted note is a note with a small dot written after it. In modern practice, the first dot increases the duration of the basic note by half of its original value. This means that a dotted note is equivalent to writing the basic note tied to a note of half the value -- for instance, a dotted half note is equivalent to a half note tied to a quarter note. Subsequent dots add progressively halved value, as shown in the example to the right. Though theoretically possible, a note with more than three dots is highly uncommon; only quadruple dots have been attested. </P>

where did the new orleans saints come from
|
<P> First the brainchild of local sports entrepreneur Dave Dixon, who later built the Louisiana Superdome and founded the USFL, the Saints were actually secretly born in a backroom deal brought about by U.S. Congressman Hale Boggs, U.S. Senator Russell Long, and NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle. The NFL needed congressional approval of the proposed AFL -- NFL merger. Dixon and a local civic group had been seeking an NFL franchise for over five years and had hosted record crowds for NFL exhibition games. To seal the merger, Rozelle arrived in New Orleans within a week, and announced on November 1, 1966, that the NFL officially had awarded the city of New Orleans an NFL franchise. The team was named for the great jazz song most identified with New Orleans -- ``When the Saints Go Marching In '', and it was no coincidence that the franchise's official birth was announced on November 1, which is the Catholic All Saints' Day. When the deal was reached a week earlier, Dixon strongly suggested to Rozelle that the announcement be delayed until then. Dixon told an interviewer that he even cleared the name with New Orleans' Archbishop Philip M. Hannan:`` He thought it would be a good idea. He had an idea the team was going to need all the help it could get.'' </P>

what is a monsignor in the roman catholic church
|
<P> Monsignor (/ mɒnˈsiːnjər /) is an honorific form of address for those members of the clergy of the Catholic Church including bishops, honorary prelates and canons. In some cases, these ecclesiastical honorific titles derive from the pope, but in other cases it is simply a customary or honorary style belonging to a prelate or honorary prelate. These are granted to individuals who have rendered valuable service to the Church, or who provide some special function in Church governance, or who are members of bodies such as certain chapters. The title is never bestowed on those classified as religious in Catholicism. Although in some languages the word is used as a form of address for bishops, which is indeed its primary use in those languages, this is not customary in English. Monsignor is the apocopic form of the Italian monsignore, from the French mon seigneur, meaning ``my lord ''. It is abbreviated Mgr, Msgr, or Mons. </P>

who played carol in the first season of friends
|
<P> Carol Willick (Anita Barone for character's debut episode, Jane Sibbett thereafter) and Susan Bunch (Jessica Hecht): Carol is Ross' lesbian ex-wife, who came out before the pilot, and Susan is her partner. Carol dumped and divorced Ross to be with Susan. In the second episode of the series, Carol tells Ross that she is pregnant with his child, and is having the baby with her partner Susan, though she wishes Ross to be part of the baby's life. Carol and Susan are often bemused by Ross' quirks throughout his onscreen appearances with them. Susan does not attempt to hide her contempt of Ross and vice versa, but they briefly put aside their differences when Carol gives birth to a boy, whom they all agree, after weeks of argument, to name Ben. Carol and Susan get married in ``The One with the Lesbian Wedding ''and make irregular appearances until`` The One That Could Have Been'' (Susan), and ``The One with the Truth About London ''(Carol). Though Ross and Carol are on good terms after their divorce, Ross continues to resent Susan for losing Carol to her. </P>

what does it mean to have a seat on the new york stock exchange
|
<P> Until 2005, the right to directly trade shares on the exchange was conferred upon owners of the 1366 ``seats. ''The term comes from the fact that up until the 1870s NYSE members sat in chairs to trade. In 1868, the number of seats was fixed at 533, and this number was increased several times over the years. In 1953, the number of seats was set at 1,366. These seats were a sought - after commodity as they conferred the ability to directly trade stock on the NYSE, and seat holders were commonly referred to as members of the NYSE. The Barnes family is the only known lineage to have five generations of NYSE members: Winthrop H. Barnes (admitted 1894), Richard W.P. Barnes (admitted 1926), Richard S. Barnes (admitted 1951), Robert H. Barnes (admitted 1972), Derek J. Barnes (admitted 2003). Seat prices varied widely over the years, generally falling during recessions and rising during economic expansions. The most expensive inflation - adjusted seat was sold in 1929 for $625,000, which, today, would be over six million dollars. In recent times, seats have sold for as high as $4 million in the late 1990s and as low as $1 million in 2001. In 2005, seat prices shot up to $3.25 million as the exchange entered into an agreement to merge with Archipelago and became a for - profit, publicly traded company. Seat owners received $500,000 in cash per seat and 77,000 shares of the newly formed corporation. The NYSE now sells one - year licenses to trade directly on the exchange. Licenses for floor trading are available for $40,000 and a license for bond trading is available for as little as $1,000 as of 2010. Neither are resell - able, but may be transferable during a change of ownership of a corporation holding a trading license. </P>

the cultural core of early olmec civilization was located at
|
<P> The Olmecs flourished during Mesoamerica's formative period, dating roughly from as early as 1500 BCE to about 400 BCE. Pre-Olmec cultures had flourished in the area since about 2500 BCE, but by 1600 -- 1500 BCE, early Olmec culture had emerged, centered on the San Lorenzo Tenochtitlán site near the coast in southeast Veracruz. They were the first Mesoamerican civilization, and laid many of the foundations for the civilizations that followed. Among other ``firsts '', the Olmec appeared to practice ritual bloodletting and played the Mesoamerican ballgame, hallmarks of nearly all subsequent Mesoamerican societies. The aspect of the Olmecs most familiar now is their artwork, particularly the aptly named`` colossal heads''. The Olmec civilization was first defined through artifacts which collectors purchased on the pre-Columbian art market in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Olmec artworks are considered among ancient America's most striking. </P>

The great white hits the crocodile with the bump - and - bite technique. Accustomed to defending himself against rivals, the crocodile bites the shark's tail, but ca n't get a good grip. The shark swims off and makes a wide turn for a full - on assault; all of a sudden, the crocodile gets the first bite on her pectoral fin. The bite tears off the shark ′ s fin, helped by the classic death roll. Despite the injury, the great white is still strong. Then, the shark and the crocodile collide head on; the crocodile grabs hold of the shark ′ s snout with his crushing bite. This time, the shark ca n't fight back; the crocodile attempts another death roll. After that, they both sink.

The elephant responds to the challenge with a loud trumpet, but the (relatively) smaller animal is not hesitant to charge and makes its move, but the much smarter elephant anticipates the attack by charging too and dodging. The rhinoceros returns and tries to stab the elephant's throat, but he's too tall, even with its four - foot horn. The white rhinoceros then tries an agile headbutt, but the elephant proves better with his seven - foot tusks. Sure enough, the elephant turns his rival around and stabs it twice with his tusks (breaking one in the process that gets stuck in the rhinoceros).

Quickly seizing the opportunity to win, the agile tiger quickly recovers and repeatedly attempts to bite the lion's throat, but the lion shakes off the attack and the combatants are back to square one. Both cats roar, claw, and wrestle with one another, but neither lands a fatal blow. The tiger tries to end the fight with a fatal neck bite, but the lion's mane deflects its aim.

The shark catches the smell of meat, but does n't know where it's coming from. The shark starts the encounter with an exploratory bump. After confirming the hippopotamus is indeed food, the shark bites the side, but the massive girth combined with the enormous weight of the hippopotamus is too much of a mouthful for the smaller shark. Even the thick skin in the back leg proves too tough. Despite this, the shark does manage to rip off the hippopotamus's tail. All while, the hippo has been roaring in pain, not knowing what hit him, but his bad temper lights a fire in his belly. Soon, the hippopotamus submerges and spots the deadly shark. The enraged hippopotamus comes towards the shark, and the shark comes towards the hippopotamus, who then opens his mouth, revealing his huge sharp foot - long canine teeth, but the bull shark keeps coming and is finally crushed and killed when the larger hippopotamus closes his mouth on it. </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 5 </Th> <Td> ``Gray Wolf vs. Cougar ''</Td> <Td> Rocky Mountains </Td> <Td> Cougar </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="4"> A gray wolf is feeding; from a great distance, a cougar catches the smell of meat, and comes to investigate.

The walrus then tries to stab the bear with its four - foot tusks, but the agile predator anticipates. The bear then tries several paw swipes to the head, but the walrus's skull is too thick to land a killing blow. As the walrus flees, the bear holds on and gets dragged into the ocean, afterwards, the walrus turns around, goring the bear with its tusks.

The bear then approaches the kill, but the tiger recovers and pounces on the bear from behind, cutting him with its claws, but fails to disable. The much stronger bear turns around and using his superior strength against the tiger's speed and agility, overpowers the tiger by pawing its face. The bear then breaks the tiger's spine and finishes its off with a neck bite, killing it immediately. </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 8 </Th> <Td>`` African Lion vs. Nile Crocodile'' </Td> <Td> Maasai Mara </Td> <Td> Nile Crocodile </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="4"> A male African lion is eating by the river's edge when a Nile crocodile emerges from the water, intent on stealing the meal. Upon seeing that, the lion roars at the crocodile to back off, but he does little than get a loud hiss from the crocodile. The lion attacks, but can not land a deadly blow because of the crocodile's thick armor. The lion tries to flip the crocodile to reach its unarmored belly, but a roll and tail swipe stops him from doing so. Determined to get rid of the lion, the crocodile heads back to the water, and gets out of sight. Determined to protect his kill, the lion stays close to the water's edge, looking for an opportunity to kill the crocodile. All of a sudden, it's too late. The crocodile launches a surprise attack on the lion, grabbing his neck and dragging him to the water. The crocodile soon performs a death roll, which kills the lion at once. </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 9 </Th> <Td> ``Mountain Gorilla vs. African Leopard ''</Td> <Td> Central Africa </Td> <Td> Mountain Gorilla </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="4"> A male mountain gorilla has left his family in the trees, looking for a place to spend the night. Around the same time, an African leopard leaves her cub to go hunting. The leopard then sees gorilla walking by and interprets her as a threat. The gorilla, upon seeing the leopard sees it too as threat to its troop. He tries to avoid the fight, beating his chest, growling and howling in the process, but the leopard does not flinch. The gorilla approaches, swiping at the leopard, who soon leaps onto a cliffside. Afterwards, the leopard jumps onto the gorilla's back and biting his shoulder. However, the gorilla manages throws the leopard off, but she leaps onto his back again, but ca n't get a grip. The gorilla throws the leopard off again; the leopard runs for her life, but the gorilla knocks her off balance before she gets free, but not before the gorilla chomps down on the leopard's shoulder, though gets free immediately after.

Hurt, but not fatally and still strong, the black bear fights back by slashing the alligator's mouth. The alligator then attempts a tail swipe, but the much smarter bear anticipates this; knowing it's vulnerable on land, The alligator tries to retreat, but the enraged bear lungs at it. The alligator tries to roll free of the bear's grab, but this gives the black bear the advantage to flip it over, which exposes the alligator's soft underbelly which the bear slashes fatally into and kills the alligator, the black leaves as the alligatorgator's dead body rots in the riverbank. </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 11 </Th> <Td> ``Sperm Whale vs. Colossal Squid ''</Td> <Td> Antarctic Ocean </Td> <Td> Sperm Whale </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="4"> A sperm whale is diving into the deep abyss, while a colossal squid rockets through the depths.

Just before it reaches the mouth, the squid latches onto the whale and rakes it with its suckers, wounding it in the process. By rising close to the surface, the squid is shaken off, but not before it scratches the whale further. Although wounded, the whale amplifies its sonar and stuns the squid.

where are sperm cells produced in the human male
|
<P> Sperm is the male reproductive cell and is derived from the Greek word (σπέρμα) sperma (meaning ``seed ''). In the types of sexual reproduction known as anisogamy and its subtype oogamy, there is a marked difference in the size of the gametes with the smaller one being termed the`` male'' or sperm cell. A uniflagellar sperm cell that is motile is referred to as a spermatozoon, whereas a non-motile sperm cell is referred to as a spermatium. Sperm cells can not divide and have a limited life span, but after fusion with egg cells during fertilization, a new organism begins developing, starting as a totipotent zygote. The human sperm cell is haploid, so that its 23 chromosomes can join the 23 chromosomes of the female egg to form a diploid cell. In mammals, sperm develops in the testicles, stored in the epididymis, and is released from the penis. </P>

For vice president, the Whigs nominated Millard Fillmore, a New York Whig known for his moderate views on slavery. Incumbent President James K. Polk, a Democrat, honored his promise not to seek re-election, leaving his party's nomination open. The 1848 Democratic National Convention rejected former President Martin Van Buren's bid for a second term, instead nominating Senator Lewis Cass of Michigan.

who wrote 1 and 2 kings in the bible
|
<P> According to Jewish tradition the author of Kings was Jeremiah, who would have been alive during the fall of Jerusalem in 586 BCE. The most common view today accepts Martin Noth's thesis that Kings concludes a unified series of books which reflect the language and theology of the Book of Deuteronomy, and which biblical scholars therefore call the Deuteronomistic history. Noth argued that the History was the work of a single individual living in the 6th century BCE, but scholars today tend to treat it as made up of at least two layers, a first edition from the time of Josiah (late 7th century BCE), promoting Josiah's religious reforms and the need for repentance, and (2) a second and final edition from the mid 6th century BCE. Further levels of editing have also been proposed, including: a late 8th century BCE edition pointing to Hezekiah of Judah as the model for kingship; an earlier 8th century BCE version with a similar message but identifying Jehu of Israel as the ideal king; and an even earlier version promoting the House of David as the key to national well - being. </P>

<P> Education in Nigeria is overseen by the Ministry of Education. Local authorities take responsibility for implementing state - controlled policy regarding public education and state schools. The education system is divided into Kindergarten, Primary education, Secondary education and Tertiary education. Nigeria's central government has been dominated by instability since declaring independence from Britain, and, as a result, a unified set of education policies has not yet been successfully implemented. Regional differences in quality, curriculum, and funding characterize the education system in Nigeria.

In redox reactions, the transferred particle is an electron, whereas in acid - base reactions it is a proton. This type of reaction is also called metathesis. </P>

when did papua new guinea become an independent country
|
<P> Elections in 1972 resulted in the formation of a ministry headed by Chief Minister Michael Somare, who pledged to lead the country to self - government and then to independence. Papua New Guinea became self - governing on 1 December 1973 and achieved independence on 16 September 1975. The country joined the United Nations (UN) on 10 October 1975 by way of Security Council Resolution 375 and General Assembly resolution 3368. The 1977 national elections confirmed Michael Somare as Prime Minister at the head of a coalition led by the Pangu Party. However, his government lost a vote of confidence in 1980 and was replaced by a new cabinet headed by Sir Julius Chan as prime minister. The 1982 elections increased Pangu's plurality, and parliament again chose Somare as prime minister. In November 1985, the Somare government lost another vote of no confidence, and the parliamentary majority elected Paias Wingti, at the head of a five - party coalition, as prime minister. A coalition, headed by Wingti, was victorious in very close elections in July 1987. In July 1988, a no - confidence vote toppled Wingti and brought to power Rabbie Namaliu, who a few weeks earlier had replaced Somare as leader of the Pangu Party. </P>

where do data for calculating population-based mortality rates usually come from
|
<P> Mortality rate, or death rate, is a measure of the number of deaths (in general, or due to a specific cause) in a particular population, scaled to the size of that population, per unit of time. Mortality rate is typically expressed in units of deaths per 1,000 individuals per year; thus, a mortality rate of 9.5 (out of 1,000) in a population of 1,000 would mean 9.5 deaths per year in that entire population, or 0.95% out of the total. It is distinct from ``morbidity '', which is either the prevalence or incidence of a disease, and also from the incidence rate (the number of newly appearing cases of the disease per unit of time). </P>

<P> Miranda Hobbes is a career - minded lawyer with extremely cynical views on relationships and men. A 1990 Harvard University law graduate from the Philadelphia area, she is Carrie's confidante and voice of reason. In the early seasons she is portrayed as masculine and distrustful and resentful of men, but this image softens over the years, particularly after she becomes pregnant by her on - again, off - again boyfriend, Steve Brady, whom she eventually marries. The birth of her son, Brady Hobbes, brings up new issues for her Type A, workaholic personality, but she eventually finds a way to balance career, being single, and motherhood. Of the four women, she is the first to purchase an apartment (an indicator of her success), which she gives up when she moves into a Brooklyn townhouse in the final season to make room for her growing family. </P>

what song did aerosmith have a hit with twice

<P> ``Walk This Way ''is a song by the American hard - rock band Aerosmith.

This cover was a touchstone for the new musical subgenre of rap rock, or the melding of rock and hip hop. It became an international hit and won both groups a Soul Train Music Award for Best Rap -- Single in 1987. </P>

<P> Tertiary storage or tertiary memory provides a third level of storage. Typically, it involves a robotic mechanism which will mount (insert) and dismount removable mass storage media into a storage device according to the system's demands; such data are often copied to secondary storage before use. It is primarily used for archiving rarely accessed information since it is much slower than secondary storage (e.g. 5 -- 60 seconds vs. 1 -- 10 milliseconds). This is primarily useful for extraordinarily large data stores, accessed without human operators. Typical examples include tape libraries and optical jukeboxes. </P>

what describes a function of the endoplasmic reticulum within a cell
|
<P> The general structure of the endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes called cisternae. These sac - like structures are held together by the cytoskeleton. The phospholipid membrane encloses the cisternal space (or lumen), which is continuous with the perinuclear space but separate from the cytosol. The functions of the endoplasmic reticulum can be summarized as the synthesis and export of proteins and membrane lipids, but varies between ER and cell type and cell function. The quantity of both rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum in a cell can slowly interchange from one type to the other, depending on the changing metabolic activities of the cell. Transformation can include embedding of new proteins in membrane as well as structural changes. Changes in protein content may occur without noticeable structural changes. </P>

Body hair transplant surgery can only be performed by the FUE harvesting method and, so, requires the skills of an experienced FUE surgeon. However, there are several factors for a potential BHT candidate to consider prior to surgery. These include understanding the natural difference in textural characteristics between body hair and scalp hair, growth rates, and having realistic expectations about the results of BHT surgery. </P>

Despite the sweltering summer heat, the windows of the meeting hall were nailed shut to keep the proceedings a secret from the public. Although William Jackson was elected as secretary, his records were brief and included very little detail. Madison's Notes of Debates in the Federal Convention of 1787, supplemented by the notes of Robert Yates, remain the most complete record of the Convention. Throughout the debate, delegates constantly referred to precedents from history in support of their position. Most commonly, they referred to the history of England, in particular the Glorious Revolution (often simply called ``The Revolution ''), classical history (mainly the Roman Republic and the leagues of Greek city - states), and recent precedents from Holland and Germany. </P>

<P> They later gather at a bar in disappointment and Emily apologizes as she thought it would be the only way for them to see each other again. They all express how much they miss each other. Suddenly, Aubrey convinces them to join a USO performance accessed by her Army officer father. If they win the competition, they get to open for DJ Khaled. The Bellas gladly accept, all except for Stacie who is eight months pregnant at the moment and is unable to go with them. The Bellas later arrive at a hangar where two soldiers, Chicago (Matt Lanter) and Zeke (Troy Ian Hall) introduce them to their competition, revealed to be three other groups who use instruments, unlike the Bellas. When the band Evermoist, led by their leader Calamity (Ruby Rose) begin to mock and belittle the Bellas, the competitors are challenged to a riff - off by the Bellas, who leave defeated when the other groups compete using their musical instruments. </P>

where did the agni-iii test launch and failed
|
<P> The first test for Agni III was conducted from Abdul Kalam Island (then known as Wheeler Island) off the Bhadrak coast on 9 July 2006. The launch proved to be unsuccessful, with the missile falling into the sea off the coast of Odisha, short of reaching the target. According to DRDO, the failure was due to a first stage anomaly that was caused by recirculating hot gases entering the missile - base shroud and damaging the electronic components. Indian Defence Minister Pranab Mukherjee reported it as ``partial success ''(a trade euphemism to indicate the test generated useful data for diagnosis and correction) as the missile was air - borne for only 5 minutes instead of the expected 15 minutes. </P>

how does a plane wing create lift which physics concept applies
|
<P> The air flow changes direction as it passes the airfoil and follows a path that is curved downward. According to Newton's second law, this change in flow direction requires a downward force applied to the air by the airfoil. Then, according to Newton's third law, the air must exert an upward force on the airfoil. The overall result is that a reaction force, the lift, is generated opposite to the directional change. In the case of an airplane wing, the wing exerts a downward force on the air and the air exerts an upward force on the wing. </P>

compound designed to mimic the structure of a transition state
|
<P> Transition state analogs (transition state analogues), are chemical compounds with a chemical structure that resembles the transition state of a substrate molecule in an enzyme - catalyzed chemical reaction. Enzymes interact with a substrate by means of strain or distortions, moving the substrate towards the transition state. Transition state analogs can be used as inhibitors in enzyme - catalyzed reactions by blocking the active site of the enzyme. Theory suggests that enzyme inhibitors which resembled the transition state structure would bind more tightly to the enzyme than the actual substrate. Examples of drugs that are transition state analog inhibitors include flu medications such as the neuraminidase inhibitor oseltamivir and the HIV protease inhibitors saquinavir in the treatment of AIDS. </P>

what is the liquid in the brain called
|
<P> Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a clear, colorless body fluid found in the brain and spinal cord. It is produced by the specialised ependymal cells in the choroid plexuses of the ventricles of the brain, and absorbed in the arachnoid granulations. There is about 125mL of CSF at any one time, and about 500mL is generated every day. CSF acts as a cushion or buffer for the brain, providing basic mechanical and immunological protection to the brain inside the skull. CSF also serves a vital function in cerebral autoregulation of cerebral blood flow. </P>
