Themes in Literature/Isolation and Community/They shut me up in Prose. Introduction. The United States has reached a societal milestone where individuals are largely liberated to express themselves authentically, pursue diverse vocations, and challenge conventional norms. However, the journey to this era of personal autonomy was long in the making. Only two centuries ago, American society was rigidly structured, with distinct gender roles and expectations. While these constraints were pervasive, they did not stifle rebellion entirely. Emily Dickinson, the 19th-century poet, defied societal expectations with unconventional audacity. Her poetry serves as a poignant reflection of the frustration and confinement experienced by women of her era. In "They Shut Me Up in Prose" (1862), Dickinson encapsulates her liberation through solitude. The text. They shut me up in Prose – As when a little Girl They put me in the Closet – Because they liked me “still”  – Still! Could themself have peeped – And seen my Brain – go round – They might as wise have lodged a Bird For Treason – in the Pound – Himself has but to will And easy as a Star Look down opon Captivity – And laugh – No more have I – Glossary. The American vocabulary in the 19th Century was very different from what it is now. Dickinson’s poetry is also notorious for the use of a variety of connotations, so understanding the definitions of certain words gives new meaning to her writing. The Emily Dickinson Lexicon (https://edl.byu.edu/) was created to help define these words to allow the reader a clearer understanding of her poetry. Here are some definitions of words used in this poem: Bird, n. Brain, n. Captivity, n. Closet, n. Laugh, v. Lodge, v. Might, n. Upon (opon), prep. Peep, v. Pound, n. Prose, n. Star, n. Still, v. Treason, n. Wise, n. Analysis. Dickinson found in poetry a means to cultivate a distinctive voice through which to articulate her perceptions of the world. However, the prevailing societal expectations of womanhood curtailed female artistic expression. Enforced domesticity and economic dependence on a husband constituted the prescribed role for women of the era. As Coleworth Pinckney's "The Lady’s Token: or Gift of Friendship" (1848) suggests, women were at their best when mild, affable, modest, and silent until spoken to: "Occupy yourself only with household affairs — wait till your husband confides to you those of a high importance — and do not give your advice till he asks it." The opening lines of "They Shut Me Up in Prose" suggest a speaker subjected to such constraints: They shut me up in Prose – As when a little Girl They put me in the Closet – Because they liked me “still”   – In the opening line of the first stanza, the speaker emphasizes her confinement by an impersonal force represented by "They," a force that seeks to restrict her creativity by imposing on her the conventions of prose. The dullness of prose stands in stark contrast to the vibrancy and liberation that poetry offers, a medium that celebrates originality, freedom, and individuality. The second line introduces a flashback, as the speaker recalls a moment of epiphany from when she was "a little girl" that illuminates her current situation. The third and fourth lines depict the speaker's confinement at the hands of this authority figure ("They") who enforces silence and conformity through a cruel punishment: being locked away "in the closet" for refusing to be "still." This act of imprisonment serves as a metaphor for the societal constraints placed upon Dickinson, who, like the speaker, dares to defy expectations by pursuing a path as a poet, a profession largely deemed unsuitable for women during her era. The second and third stanzas then introduce an interesting shift: Still! Could themself have peeped – And seen my Brain – go round – They might as wise have lodged a Bird For Treason – in the Pound – Himself has but to will And easy as a Star Look down upon Captivity – And laugh – No more have I – The second stanza opens with a powerful exclamation, "Still!", that oozes sarcasm, immediately exposing the absurdity of the constraints placed upon the speaker. The speaker defies the futility of such limitations, acknowledging the physical confinement while asserting the boundless freedom of her mind. The lines that follow employ a witty bird metaphor to highlight how ludicrous is to attempt to silence a poet. The image of a bird being imprisoned for treason exposes the comicality of trying to suppress the very essence of artistic expression. The final stanza extends the metaphor of the bird, emphasizing the ease with which the creative spirit transcends confinement. The bird, soaring above its would-be captors, regards them with amusement from its privileged perspective. This elevated vantage point symbolically mirrors the speaker's own position. Her intellect and imagination soar beyond the narrow constraints imposed by "They," granting her the freedom she craves. In effect, she has already achieved liberation, much like the bird that has effortlessly escaped its cage. The poem explores the tension between the desire for individual expression and the constraints imposed by a homogenous society. Individuality, the philosophy of self-reliance and uniqueness, thrives on the very aspects that distinguish us—our varied needs, rights, goals, and moral compasses. However, when societal expectations attempt to erase these distinctions, as in the case of the rigid gender roles prescribed for women in Dickinson's era, the sense of self is inevitably lost. The group, in this case, women, is pressured to conform to a singular identity. Those who dare to deviate from the established norms risk being ostracized and labeled as outrageous, deviant, or even insane. What is fascinating about Dickinson is that she turned this secluded domestic space into a creative space. As Medhkour explains, At first glance, the way Dickinson shut herself up in her bedroom seemingly contradicts this poem’s message. She chose four walls over the usual concept of freedom. Nonetheless, this poem exemplifies Dickinson’s choice. The prison was outside of her room—her walls kept things out, not her in. Her room was where her mind could “go round” and be free of captivity, because that is where she wrote poetry. It is the place where “I” finds precedence over “They.” She chose to not publish traditionally because “They” would “shut [her] up in Prose” or force her to write poetry that was an “acceptable” subject for women or more regular in syntax, stanza, and rhyme as was the style of the time. In brief, the poem “They Shut Me Up in Prose” honors the liberty Emily Dickinson achieved from society. Even though Dickinson lacked social contact, she remained true to herself, exploring her individuality and passionately writing poems—over 1,800 in her lifetime. Her mind and ideas were always free, unaffected by restrictive social conventions, highlighting the power of one's mind over external limitations. Emily Dickinson exemplifies a feminist poet who was revolutionary in a patriarchal society. Transforming your feelings into verse. Let's write a poem! Just take a piece of paper and a pencil and start writing about any moment in your life. Think about how you felt, where you were, and what it smelled like. It doesn’t have to be perfect! After you have your first draft, let's shorten it and try to think of different words to express the same or deeper feelings. Instead of "love," you can use colors like "red," and instead of "passion," you can use objects like "fire." You can also use metaphors and compare emotions, like "Love is like a rollercoaster" or "This passion is like a burning sun." You can also go to the website "Poem Generator" and create your own poem with your own specifications: https://www.poem-generator.org.uk/ Other poems by Emily Dickinson.

Pokémon Trading Card Game/Stadium Cards. Stadium Cards: Stadium cards are used to give a player an extra bonus or special conditions. There can only be one stadium card during your play. However, you do not have to discard the stadium until you change into a new one. Also, if a stadium card is in your deck you can’t place it if you have a card that has the same as it that is in play. An example of an affect that happens is, “each Pokémon that has any fairy energy attached to it (both yours and your opponent’s) has no retreat cost” (Fairy Garden 100/124 Fates Collide).

Pokémon Trading Card Game/Pokémon-EX Cards. EX Cards: EX cards are powerful Pokémon that have very powerful attacks but require a lot of energy cards to land an attack. There are 4 types of ex cards. They are normal, full arts, rainbow and promotional cards. However, these cards are hard to get in packs in are not too common to find. There is also a rule for ex cards for when they get knocked out. If they get knocked out then you or your opponent gets 2 prize cards.

Pokémon Emerald/Rustboro - First gym. Route 104. This route is connecting between Petalburg to Rustboro. Which in the middle of it resides Petalburg Woods. First part. This part of route 104 from Peltaburg is half grassy, half beach like. Both of them have trainers. Trainers. Assuming you will want to battle here them all, those are the trainers: The first trainers you can actually avoid battling. While Lady Cindy might be tricky to avoid, but it possible when being fast. Still, it's recommended to fight them all. Especially if you have Torchik, you will want to evolve it before the first Gym, so he will have effecting moves against Rock types. Items and Exploring. Except for berries (as in route 102), there's an item in unaccessible area at the moment of this part. Only after entering the Petalburg Woods it's possible to take it. There's also Mr. Briney Cottage here. But at the moment he's not here. This will be a house we will return to in the future. Petalburg Woods. Trainers and Items part 1. As soon you will enter the woods, go right 'till the end, you will see bushes with some empty spot. Go besides the empty spot and click A to find hidden item - Potion. Going down from there and you will come back to the inaccessible spot in route 104 you couldn't reach before. Take the item to acquire a PokeBall. Now, you can go back to the woods either from where you entered this spot, or either jump through the ledges and enter the woods from the beginning to avoid Pokemon in the grass. Either way, now it's time to go left from where we began our journey to the Petalburg Woods. The first NPC you will meet there is a bug catcher trainer Lyle. He will have 4 Pokemon, but not be afraid as they are all Lvl3 Wurmple. While they could be beaten by almost any Pokemon, if you hadn't chose Torchik, it is recommended to catch Taillow in Route 104 to beat all the Bug Pokemon you gonna encounter in the woods and the bug catcher trainers here. After beating Lyle, going upstairs will reveal new item, pick up a Paralyze Heal. If your Pokemon gonna be paralyze by Bug Pokemon in the woods, use it to heal them, or rather use your bought heals if you bought any. Continue right and once you will attempt to go up, a scenario is gonna happen. First battle with Team Aqua. You will meet a Devon worker that needs help finding Shroomish, immediately following the dialogue, a Team Aqua grunt gonna show up. Follow the dialogue to your first Team Aqua grunt battle. This grunt have only one Pokemon Lvl9 Poochyena. While it will be the highest level Pokemon you fought so far, your starter Pokemon should be around this level. Wether they are or not, he will most likely use Howl attack several times to increase it's attack, taking advantage of that and beating him should be piece of cake. Follow the dialogue to understand that Team Aqua are up to something in Rustboro City, and then the Devon worker will give you Great Ball as thanks. Trainers and Items part 2. Continue right from where you fought the Team Aqua grunt, and right where the road starting going up, you will encounter bug catcher James. He's going to have 2 Lvl6 Nincada. Continue upward and you will find another item to pick up an Ether. In the left there will be cuttable trees, that later could be cut away. Since we don't have something else to do here, continue up to exit the woods to continue Route 104. Second Part. Follow up the road to find Pretty Petal Flower Shop, go in. The first NPC will teach you about berries, but won't give you nothing. The NPC behind here on the other hand will give you Wailmer Pail, which will enable you to water berries in soil grounds where you took berries from. Talk to the third NPC in this house and she will give you Persim Berry. Now get out from this house, go left and upward to the bushes area. In the first clear sport area, there's hidden item to pick, a PokeBall. The non-hidden item is a Potion. Little upward from this item in another clear spot you will find hidden item Super Potion. And that's it for this area. Now get back to the main road and go left. The first trainer you will encounter will be Rich Bou Winston. He's gonna have one Pokemon Lvl7 Zigzagoon. While beating Zigzagoon probably will be a joke right now, he have some potions in his sleeves to heal him if you won't beat him in 1-2 strikes. Continue left and you will see a bridge in the water. Before entering it though you will encounter another trainer, Lass Haley. She have a Lvl6 Lotad and Lvl6 Shroomish. If you caught Taillow this should be piece of cake. Beware though that Shroomish might make your Pokemon fall asleep. Continue upward the Bridge, and before encountering the next trainers make sure your Pokemon are healed, since you gonna have your first Double Battle in the game. One you go right the twins Gina and Mia are gonna Double Battle you. They have Lvl6 Seedot and Lvl6 Lotad. This should not be a hard battle, but be aware to the Double Battle strategy. Note that if you have only one Pokemon, or if your other Pokemon are fainted, this battle would not be triggered. Continue upward the bridge, and we are right in Restburo City entrance. If you want, you can talk to the Fisherman besides the water to trigger a battle, Fisherman Ivan will have 3 Magikarp with different level - Lvl5, Lvl6 and Lvl7. EXP Points won't be hight, so you might consider this off. In the Right corner of the water after the fisherman, an NPC will give you Chesto berry to plant, or to use it yourself. Before going up the city straightforward, you will see that the city fence is open in the right side, go in that road to pick an item in the end - X Defend. Go back the road and finally enter the city.

Supplementary mathematics/Cone. A cone is a geometric body that is created when all the points of a bounded and connected area lying in one plane are connected in a straight line with a point outside the plane. If the patch is a circular disk, the solid is called a circular cone. The area is called the base area, its boundary line is the directrix, the point is called the tip, apex or vertex of the cone and the area on the side is called the lateral surface. A cone has a vertex (the apex), an edge (the directrix) and two faces (the lateral and the base). The vertex of a cone is not a vertex because the vertex is not an endpoint of edges (see definition of vertex). The height of the cone means both the perpendicular from the tip to the base (i.e. the height is always perpendicular to the base) and the length of this perpendicular (i.e. the distance between the tip and the base). The lines connecting the tip with the directrix are called generatrices, their union forms the cone envelope or the lateral surface. Ellipse, parabola and hyperbola are conic sections. In connection with conic sections, a "cone" is often understood as a "double cone". Especially in technology, a cone or a truncated cone is often referred to as a cone (from Latin conus) or conical.

Supplementary mathematics/Analytic geometry. Analytical geometry (also vector geometry) is a branch of geometry that provides algebraic tools (mainly from linear algebra) to solve geometric problems. In many cases, it makes it possible to solve geometric problems purely by calculation, without using the visual aid. On the other hand, geometry that justifies its propositions on an axiomatic basis without reference to a number system is called synthetic geometry. The methods of analytical geometry are used in all natural sciences, but above all in physics, such as in the description of planetary orbits. Originally, analytical geometry dealt only with questions of planar and spatial (Euclidean) geometry. In the general sense, however, analytic geometry describes affine spaces of any dimension over any body.

Fractals/perturbation. Fast deep zoom =Perturbation method= "The thing we call perturbation consist of 2 things: Calculate one pixel with high precision and use it as a reference for all other pixels. This method will fail though, however thanks to Pauldelbrot we have a trustable method of detecting the pixels where the reference fails to compute the pixel with hardware precision. These pixels can be rendered with a reference closer to these pixels, so a typical perturbation render use several references. This method gives a speedup at about 10 times on depths of 10^100 Use a truncated Taylor series to approximate a starting value for a specific iteration, which make you able to skip all previous iterations. This method gives a speedup of typically Another 10 times on depths of 10^100, and together the speed up is typically 100 times. This, which we call Series Approximation, is where we have issues since we do not have any solid theoretically way of finding when too many iterations are skipped - for all pixels in the view. The more terms you include in the Taylor series, the more iterations you are able to skip. So if you stay below say 50 terms, it is not likely that you ever encounter any issues. Because some views can be correctly rendered 1000 or 100,000 times faster than full precision for each pixel with many terms - can you imagine a month turned into seconds! shocked K.I.Martin originally used only 3 terms " - Kalles Fraktaler =Description= Very highly magnified images require more than the standard 64-128 or so bits of precision most hardware floating-point units provide, requiring renderers use slow "bignum" or "arbitrary precision" math libraries to calculate. However, this can be sped up by the exploitation of perturbation theory. Given as the iteration, and a small epsilon, it is the case that or so if one defines one can calculate a single point (e.g. the center of an image) using normal, high-precision arithmetic ("z"), giving a "reference orbit", and then compute many points around it in terms of various initial offsets epsilon-zero plus the above iteration for epsilon. For most iterations, epsilon does not need more than 16 significant figures, and consequently hardware floating-point may be used to get a mostly accurate image. There will often be some areas where the orbits of points diverge enough from the reference orbit that extra precision is needed on those points, or else additional local high-precision-calculated reference orbits are needed. This rendering method, and particularly the automated detection of the need for additional reference orbits and automated optimal selection of same, is an area of ongoing, active research. Renderers implementing the technique are publicly available and offer speedups for highly magnified images in the multiple orders of magnitude range. =Newton-Raphson zooming = One can "use newton's method to find and progressively refine the precision of the location of the minibrot at the center of a pattern. This allows them to arbitrarily select a magnification between the location they started at and the final minibrot they calculate to be at the center of that location." =Glitches= Glitches glitches in perturbation method How to detect glitches: How to choose reference point ( by Claude): Types of glitches by Claude: 1. Reference escapes early, this type can be avoided by picking a non-escaping reference 2. Too-different dynamics (detected easily by Pauldelbrot's heuristic, detected accurately by gerrit's backwards error analysis, think knighty had another method too) Type 1 can be improved by picking a random glitched pixel as the new reference and retrying Type 2 can sometimes be fixed by using pixel with minimum |z| at the glitch iteration (possibly using derivative for 1 step of Newton's method to make it closer to a miniset), but often picking a random pixel works just as well - the advantage for minimum |z| comes for Mandelbrot set where you don't need to restart iterations from the beginning because minisets are periodic through 0 and the period is the glitch iteration (I use this in my mandelbrot-perturbator thing) KF uses an algorithm I don't really understand for finding the "glitch center" based on pixel regions, but also has options for random choice and minimum |z| (without the fancy stuff from mandelbrot-perturbator). Locations: Knighty's SMB which I think is still a bit faster than KF though being more of a testbed than a usable renderer puts the glitches in distinct sets (G1.., Gn) with same iteration number where glitch was detected. Next references will then be 1 random pixel from each of the G1..,Gn and is used only to recalculate the pixels in each set G. Secondary glitches simply generate another set G and you just put then in some queue or stack and keep going at it till no more G sets left. When dealing with glitched pixels you can use the same series expansion as a starting point. ( Gerrit) =Rebasing= Rebasing means resetting the reference iteration to the start when the pixel orbit (i.e. Z+z , the reference plus delta) gets near a critical point (like 0+0i for the Mandelbrot set). If there is more than one critical point, you need reference orbits starting at each of them, and this test can switch to a different reference orbit. For this case, pick the orbit o that minimizes |(Z−Zo)+z| , among the current reference orbit at iteration whatever, and the critical point orbits at iteration number 0 . Rebasing means you only need as many reference orbits as critical points (which for simple formulas like the Mandelbrot set and Burning Ship means only one), and glitches are avoided rather than detected, needing to be corrected later. This is a big boost to efficiency (which is nice) and correctness (which is much more important). =Effects= Perturbation algorithm with series approximation ( 100 times faster on zoom levels around e100! ) =Precision= For deeper zooms there are 3 options: =history= =Programs= =Compare= =References=

Micronations/List of already existing micronations/SSC-Khatumo. The SSC-Khatumo is a micronation which was officially founded in February 6th. 2023, although its forerunner, the SSC Movement, was founded in March 2009 by Suleiman Haglotosiye and Ali Sabarey. The adaptation of the SSC Movement, namely SSC-Khatumo occurred in at the behest of mainly the youth of the city of Las Anod following an assassination that occurred on the 26th of December 2022. These youth began protesting what they saw as a lack of action on the part of the governing secessionist authorities based in Hergeisa to the latest in a string of assassinations that had occurred in the city since 2009 that targeted the city's elite people. As the Las Anod youth began holding street demonstrations against what they saw as an orchestrated eliticide, a paramilitary group funded and trained by Britain called RRU began gunning down the street protesters. Over the next month, a string of traditional elders of the Reer Darawiish tribe began flooding into the city in an attempt to quell the chaos and to instill a sense of peace, law and order and tranquility. Subsequently, the most senior of the chieftains of the Reer Darawiish tribe, namely Garad Jama Garad Ali, publically declared the creation of a new federal state of Somalia, which would be called SSC-Khatumo and would initially consist of the Fiqishini tribe and the Reer Darawiish tribe. Since the incumbent president of Somalia Hassan Sheikh Mohamud has as of the 2020s not recognized it as one of its member states, the de facto status of the SSC-Khatumo administration is that of a proto state or micronation.

Super Mario Galaxy 2/Epilogue. The game will start like a book reading, with more 2D style than 3D style. Here you will learn the basic controls such as the spin attack. "Now, let me tell you a new story that also begins with stardust" (referencing the first Super Mario Galaxy) Click A and the game will continue. You will receive a letter from peach to come watching stars with here, and the first section will appear. In the first section there won't be much platforming, simply collect the star bits and hear what the toads as to say, jump on the ? blocks to get coins, and simply move forward like any other Super Mario game. Second Section, Mario will find lost Luma that will take like in Mario. Gathering his trust will make you able to spin by shaking Wiimote. Continue forward and you will see crystals containing star bits, spin to break them. Do a backward jump to reach the higher blocks. Third section, now you will find more Luma in crystal, spin to break them and continue to the castle. Continue to break free the Luma and you will find Bowser huge as never was before. Turns out he kidnapped Peach, and he's aiming toward building his empire at the centre of the universe. After he will take off, two Luma's at the distance will call you, and the gameplay now will return to be 3D style. Go toward the castle to talk with both of those Luma's. Those Luma's will present the situation, and will make a star portal to make Mario jump toward the 1st Galaxy Sky Station.

Super Mario Galaxy 2/World 1. World 1 of Super Mario Galaxy 2 contains 7 Galaxies. The Boss Galaxy in this world is Bowser's Junior Gobblegut. To complete this world you will need 7 regular stars (as prankster comet stars won't be available 'till later) . The save title for this world would be: "World 1: The Great Space Journey Begins".
98
Super Mario Galaxy 2/World 1/Sky Station. Sky Station is the first Galaxy and will be the first one to be played immediately after the epilogue. It have 2 regular gold stars and prankster comet star, total 3 stars. Pewee's Piranha's Temper Tantrum. First section Once landing on the first planet, a luma will tell you the Bowser took their all stars. From where you are, go left or right to your decision, until you will find a green pipe right next to red one (the red one will take you to a 1-up), get on the green pipe to get the downward section of the planet. On there, go above the hill and hit the crystal with a spin, and drop there. you will now be on Yoshi's house roof. Go to the Luma that calling you and he will make himself a Launching Star to send you to the next platform. Second section In this planet, there will be Octombas and transforming platforms, navigate carefully following the Luma to the right of the planet, eliminate or avoid the Octombas and the platforms (there's 2 1-Ups on the way to take), to the tallest tower. Carefully jumping of the transforming platforms before they pop out, and the Luma will transform to a Launch star. Side quests Third section This section will include three small planets. Jumping too hight will release you from the gravity of each planet. Jump to get to the non-grassy planet and jump again to the mini star launcher. One you will be launched, you will circle a third planet and will come to a second mini star launcher. If you will spin this you will get to a ? marked coin that will have star bits. Otherwise, you will continue to be drifting to the third small planet with big star launcher. Spin in it to be launched to the Fourth section. Fourth section In this planet there will be two moving blocks, Octombas and flying Gommbas. Right in front of the flag make a long jump to avoid the muddy way. From there navigate carefully to the right side of the planet. Be careful crossing the mud in where the moving blocks are, since they will slow you down and the moving blocks might push you to the black hole. So rather go fast to get past them, or make backward jump to get on the moving blocks and jump forward from them when land is in sight. When you crossed the second moving block, if you hadn't came to fenced grass patch, you will be either on a platform with Octomba - from there make a long jump toward upward section, or with flying Goombas - where Luma will guide you to the fenced grass patch. Eliminate or avoid enemies on the way, and he will transform to Launch Star, warning that a monster is on the way. Spin to launch, and Mario will break on the way another star bits crystal. Comet Shard Comet shards are important to make a prankster comet to appear, and is found on every galaxy (even those who doesn't have prankster comet). In this galaxy it is found on this section. Go near to 2nd moving block and when it's getting close, make a backward jump or jump+spin to get on it. Stand on the middle and near the fenced grass patch Mario will take it. Fifth Section You will land in front of one Octomba, eliminate or avoid him. Behind him there will be red star mushroom who will grant you another 3 lives making it six total. Mark the flag and move forward to get to to the other side of the planet. There will be three stairs with Octomba on each on them, eliminate or avoid them to get to the launch star that will tell you he's seeing a star light over the next section. Meaning the next section will be the last. Launch on it to get to the boss. Boss Battle - Pewee's Piranha Mario will land on an egg that will hatch once landing on it, making Pewee to hatch from it. This is the first boss battle in the game. It won't be hard unless you haven't mastered the spinning technique yet. Pewee will have 2 attack stages: Stage One Pewee will circle the planet seeking to hit you. Quickly get to his egg on his back and spin on it to. Three hits will make the egg shell to break out, and then Pewee will run out from pain. Hit him in it's painful back once more. He will actually will try to ease it's pain by sitting, giving you a free strike. Stage Two Now Pewee will get his egg shell back and will be furious, and those will be faster, other than that nothing changes. Repeat the previous stage to hit him three time to break his egg shell, and fourth to end him. The star will appear now. Take it and acquire the game's first star.

Super Mario Galaxy 2/World S. World S is the legendary world that had been said couple of times before beating Bowser. Once you had beaten Bowser in the Galaxy Generator, the game will say that a World S had opened up. World S will have 6 of the hardest level of the game. While it is also include the Grandemaster Galaxy, that galaxy ordinary star and prankster comet star will appear only on some certain condition. To be able to take all the galaxies (except for the last one that requiring also star bits), you will need to gather 110 stars of the game (out of the all 120 stars of the game). There's no forks in this world, so you will have to take every galaxy to advance. The save title on this world would be: ""World S: Here we go!"."

Super Mario Galaxy 2/Grandmaster Galaxy. The Grandmaster Galaxy is the last and final galaxy in the Super Mario Galaxy 2 game, and to be able to open it and to get the last 2 stars, it requires certain conditions. The Ultimate Test. Requirment. To be able to take the ultimate test in the Grandmaster Galaxy, you gonna have to collect all the stars available in the game. Only once you will have 240 stars (120 Gold stars and 120 Green stars) this Galaxy will show up with The Ultimate Test level. The Perfect Run (prankster comet star). Requirement. While activating the first level might be "easy", to activate the prankster comet star, you will have to gain 9,999 star bits in Toad bank account. There's no easy way to gain all of those except for grinding levels, or replaying the game in new save and sending star bits in toad bank to share the bits. Once you gather all 9,999 star bits, the level will show up. 100% Completion. Once you gain all 242 stars, there will be an addition to Mario starship - Rosalina. Talk to her and she will thank you for gathering all the stars in the game.

Super Mario Galaxy 2/Green Stars. Once you have opened World S and collected all 120 stars from all the levels, the second post game part will begin. If collecting all the 120 gold stars wasn't easy, green stars are going to be on entire different level. Rather than doing a course to get them, green stars will be scattered in every galaxy you had done so far, but with a twist - those stars will be sometimes in hard places to reach, and require certain movements and actions to collect them. At this phase though you probably will have enough knowledge on the controls and movements of Mario and even Yoshi, it's time to put them in to test. Epilogue to Green Star. Once you finish the first time the Boss Blitz galaxy, you will be notified there's a guest in Mario Starship - a green Luma. Talking to him will reveal parts of the next post game content - ""Seeking the cosmic jewels" (written in green)"... it's been our lifelong pursuit... There is a saying that "they can be found when all of the Stars have been collected"". In other words, your job now is to collect all the 120 stars to open up the next episode. Once all the 120 green stars collected (no matter which was the last one and from which galaxy) you will be referred to a new green Luma, who will say "Even if we have every Power Star, we still must defeat that monster... Or we'll never see the cosmic jewels...", and so will say the other green Luma. So to open officially the Green Stars episode, you gotta go back to Bowser's Galaxy Generator Galaxy, beat Bowser again and activate the rolling credits once more It might take some time for the credits to roll in the second time, but you may notice some changes from the first time. Once the credits end, a new cutscene will appear of Roselina in her library from the first Galaxy game. Once every Luma will gather, she will say ""Next, let's hear a story about the jewels of the cosmos... Let me tell you the story of the Green Star"," after another dialogue the cutscene will fade away, and the game will make a notice "Prankster Comets" (green writing) "have appeared!" and the start screen will appear. Your title save now will be "The green star challenge is on!", once entering the game Lubba will tell you that many prankster comets have appeared. Go to the World map and you will see the green comet dropping new green stars all over the worlds, and the Green Star episode begins! Walkthrough. As being said in the epilogue to the Green Star episode, every place that had star on, will have it's own green stars. Meaning, every galaxy that had golden stars, will now have the same amount of green stars as their golden ones. Collecting them all is really time consuming, but for any completionist out there, and to also gain access to the final Galaxy and the last two stars, there isn't any other way. Tips. Wether you gonna follow the guide or not, one of the green Luma on Starship Mario will say: "The universe is so full of joy... Have you even seen a cosmic jewel? They have such a happy shine!", "And if you listen closely, you can hear the wonderful tinkling sound when one is nearby! Seriously". So there you have it, two canonical tips - A non-canonical tips is, as soon you get into a level, use the first person camera to all side in the level, specially in a high place. In most of the cases, you will find the Green Star hovering somewhere. If not, it might be in the next level's platforms.

Super Mario Galaxy 2/Green Stars/World 1. World 1 had originally 17 golden ones, so it now have another 17 green ones. Note that, while the green stars would be in their original level, its advised to pick in the Galaxy Star selection screen the empty green stars so the game will send you exactly to the level they are in, so you won't have to search level by level yourself. And by thus the lists will follow. Sky Station Galaxy. Green Star 1 The Green Star here will be located at Yoshi's house roof near the green pipe. There's two ways to gain it - short way and long way. The short way is simply locate Mario beneath the green star, make an backward jump and add a spin. The longest is going through the green pipe, break the crystal on the hill, and then drop from the roof on the Green Star. Green Star 2 This Green Star is located on the 2nd platform. Do the level as usual (you may collect more 1-Ups on the way) until reaching the peak of the tower. There, behind the fence you will see the Green Star shine. Drop behind the tower to get it. You may as well moving the camera to get a better look. Green Star 3 Go through the first platform. In the second one, move to the second elevator (the one that's going down) and wait 'till you get to the level where the blue disc is, make backward jump to reach it. Hovering upon it one the side, you will find the Green Star. To reach it, make either wall jump to its side and add a spin, or a backward jump with a spin. Yoshi Star Galaxy. Green Star 1 This green star will be shown on the level cutscene, high above the hill to the northwest of the first area. Eliminate the Magikoopa to release Yoshi, and take him above the hill (it's also the hill where the Comet Shard is). A regular floating jump won't reach it, to actually reach it, make Yoshi a float jump, and once in the air press Z+A to make Mario jump from Yoshi, and he will reach the star. Green Star 2 Like Green Star 1, this one also can be seen in the open cutscene. But only if you look at the right side of the screen. Upon entering the level also it can be seen when you go little forward and look on the right side - it is located on the mouth cliff of the volcano. To get there, do the level as usual to take Yoshi. Upon encountering the huge fruit, got to the right side of it and you should see the star. Make Yoshi it's floating jump to get to that cliff (be careful not to slip), and take the star. Green Star 3 This time, the green star will be on the last level platform. So just make your way through this level until you get to where the star usual is, but instead landing on the golden star land, continue the flower jumping to the left side. Once there you will see the green star hovering up in the air. To reach it, make Yoshi float higher from where the flower get you, but that won't be enough either, so press A+Z on the highest float, and Mario will jump from Yoshi toward the green star. Spin-Dog. Green Star 1 Go through the first platform to the second one. There, the Green Star will hang above the fence on the middle of the planet. To reach the top of the fence itself, locate Mario close to the fence and make a backward jump, if Mario doesn't hang on it, add a spin. Once on the fence, locate Mario beneath the star to it's left or right, face Mario to the other side and make a backward jump and a spin to collect the star. Green Star 2 In the third platform, proceed to where Luma is making a Star Launcher for you, and there, above the row of transforming platforms, the Green Star will hover very high in the air. To reach it there's need to make a perfect triple jump without falling when the platforms disappear. Make Mario start the triple jump before the first row of the transforming platform to make sure that Mario will be jumping toward the star. Once made the third jump, add a spin, and Mario will collect it. It's advised to eliminate the Flying Goomba before doing it. Green Star 3 Go through the levels until you enter the green pipe to the 2D cave. In the second room the star will hover close to the wall. To reach it you must make Mario ditch the digger by getting hurt by the digger enemy. Now, locate Mario with the back to the wall facing the star, make a backward jump and make a wall jump with a spin to get the star.

Super Mario Galaxy 2/World S/Mario Squared. The first Galaxy in World S is kind of throwback or even sequel to Super Mario Galaxy Toy Box galaxy. It's landscape feature Mario in it's 6 bit design as the ground for this galaxy for it's normal star, and 6 bit Luigi for it's prankster comet star. Make Mario a Star. The objective in this level, is making all the ? marked tiles to ! ones. While it sound simple, most of the level have disappearing tiles once stepping on them. There's no much a guide to how to do it but simply planning which way to go first. The advice is start from the north-east corner to the north-west corner, and then go back to the south ones. Just take the unlimited time to plan your steps well. Once all the ? marked had changed, the Star will shown where you started the level. So make sure that the nearest disappearing tiles won't go off. Luigi's Purple Coin Chaos. This level is considered one of the hardest level in the game. If you thought Make Mario a Star level was easy, this one is not. It's not only the fact that there's no shortage in the Purple Coins, you must collect them all. But also the game will give you 2 minutes to do it, and also a bunch of Shadow Mario will chase you. This means that you must not only plan your steps carefully, but try at best not to miss any coin in any tile, not only as they disappear but also not to get hit by Shadow Mario. The advice is not to take all the closest purple coins nearby, but take the purple coins in the right and from there taking a long jump to the north-east corner, collect the purple coins there (there's also a coins that can be gathered by long jump only), and from there going north-west, south-west and then come back south-east to the beginning. If you lost too much lives, take advice from Cosmic Roselina to show you the best plan (which is similar to how I have written). Good Luck.

Semiconductor Electronics/Depth in look of semiconductors. Semiconductor electronics is a branch of electronics that deals with the design, fabrication, and application of electronic devices and circuits based on semiconductor materials. Semiconductors are materials that have electrical conductivity between that of conductors (such as metals) and insulators (such as non-metals). In semiconductor electronics, semiconductors are primarily used as the base material for the fabrication of various electronic components, such as diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits (ICs). These components form the building blocks of modern electronic devices, including computers, smartphones, televisions, and many other consumer electronics. To understand the depth of semiconductors, it is essential to look at their atomic structure and the behavior of electrons within the material. Semiconductors are typically crystalline solids composed of atoms with four valence electrons. Common semiconductor materials include silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), gallium arsenide (GaAs), and many others. In the pure state, semiconductors have a complete valence band and an empty conduction band, with a bandgap in between. The valence band is occupied by electrons, while the conduction band is empty. When energy is applied to a semiconductor, electrons can be excited from the valence band to the conduction band, creating mobile charge carriers. This behavior allows semiconductors to conduct electricity under certain conditions. Doping is a crucial process in semiconductor fabrication. By intentionally introducing impurities into the crystal structure of a semiconductor, the electrical properties of the material can be altered. Two common types of dopants are n-type (negative) and p-type (positive). N-type doping introduces atoms with extra valence electrons, creating excess electrons in the material. P-type doping introduces atoms with fewer valence electrons, creating "holes" or electron vacancies. The combination of n-type and p-type semiconductors forms the basis for many electronic components. For example, a diode is created by joining an n-type semiconductor with a p-type semiconductor. A transistor is composed of multiple layers of n-type and p-type semiconductors, allowing for amplification and control of electrical signals. Integrated circuits (ICs) are complex semiconductor devices that incorporate thousands to billions of transistors and other components on a single chip. ICs have revolutionized the field of electronics, enabling the miniaturization and integration of various functions into compact and powerful devices. The depth of semiconductor electronics encompasses various concepts, including semiconductor physics, fabrication processes, circuit design, device characterization, and system integration. It involves understanding the behavior of electrons, the properties of different semiconductor materials, the techniques for manufacturing and processing semiconductors, and the design and analysis of electronic circuits. Overall, the study of semiconductor electronics provides the foundation for modern electronic technology and is crucial for advancements in areas such as computing, telecommunications, energy, and healthcare. Semiconductor electronics is a branch of electronics that focuses on the study, design, and application of semiconductor devices. Semiconductors are materials that have electrical conductivity between conductors (such as metals) and insulators (such as non-conducting materials). They are crucial components in electronic devices and play a fundamental role in modern technology. To understand semiconductors in depth, let's start with some key concepts: 1. Atomic Structure: Semiconductors are typically crystalline solids composed of atoms arranged in a regular lattice structure. The behavior of electrons in the crystal lattice determines the electrical properties of the semiconductor. 2. Energy Bands: In a semiconductor, the electrons occupy energy levels called energy bands. The valence band is the highest energy band filled with electrons at absolute zero temperature. Above the valence band is the conduction band, which is separated by an energy gap called the band gap. The electrons in the conduction band are free to move and contribute to electrical conduction. 3. Intrinsic Semiconductors: Pure semiconductors, such as silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge), are called intrinsic semiconductors. In an intrinsic semiconductor, the number of free electrons in the conduction band is equal to the number of vacancies (holes) in the valence band. At absolute zero temperature, there are no free electrons in the conduction band. 4. Doping: Doping is the process of intentionally introducing impurity atoms into a semiconductor to modify its electrical properties. Doping can create two types of semiconductors:    - N-Type Semiconductor: Doping a semiconductor with atoms that have more valence electrons than the host material (e.g., phosphorus in silicon) creates an excess of negatively charged electrons. These extra electrons are called majority charge carriers, and the material becomes an N-type semiconductor.    - P-Type Semiconductor: Doping a semiconductor with atoms that have fewer valence electrons than the host material (e.g., boron in silicon) creates vacancies or "holes" in the valence band. These holes act as positive charge carriers, and the material becomes a P-type semiconductor. 5. Junctions and Diodes: When an N-type semiconductor and a P-type semiconductor are brought together, a junction is formed. This junction is called a P-N junction. At the P-N junction, electrons from the N-side recombine with holes from the P-side, creating a depletion region with no free charge carriers. This region acts as an insulator, preventing current flow in one direction and allowing it in the opposite direction. This behavior forms the basis of diodes, which are fundamental semiconductor devices. 6. Transistors: Transistors are crucial semiconductor devices used for amplification and switching. The most common type is the bipolar junction transistor (BJT), which consists of two P-N junctions. Another type is the field-effect transistor (FET), which operates based on the control of a conducting channel through an electric field. Transistors are the building blocks of modern electronic circuits. 7. Integrated Circuits: Integrated circuits (ICs) are miniaturized electronic circuits formed on a single semiconductor chip. They incorporate transistors, resistors, capacitors, and other components to perform specific functions. ICs revolutionized electronics by enabling the production of compact, powerful, and low-cost devices. The study of semiconductor electronics goes beyond these basic concepts, diving into device physics, circuit design, fabrication processes, and more. It is a vast field with applications in areas like telecommunications, computing, power electronics, and consumer electronics. Researchers and engineers continue to push the boundaries of semiconductor technology to develop faster, smaller, and more efficient devices for various applications. 8. Band Theory: The behavior of electrons in semiconductors is described by band theory. It explains the energy levels and allowed electron states in solids. In addition to the valence band and conduction band, there can be intermediate bands or impurity bands formed by doping or specific material structures. 9. Carrier Mobility: Carrier mobility refers to the ability of charge carriers (electrons or holes) to move through a semiconductor in the presence of an electric field. It is an important parameter that determines the speed at which charge carriers can travel and influences the overall conductivity of the semiconductor material. 10. PN Junction Diode: A PN junction diode is a basic semiconductor device that allows current flow in only one direction. When a forward bias voltage is applied across the diode, the depletion region narrows, enabling current flow. On the other hand, applying a reverse bias voltage widens the depletion region, preventing significant current flow. 11. MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor): MOSFET is a type of field-effect transistor widely used in digital circuits. It consists of a gate, a source, and a drain terminal. By applying a voltage to the gate terminal, the conductivity of the channel between the source and drain can be controlled, allowing the MOSFET to function as a switch or an amplifier. 12. Semiconductor Fabrication: Semiconductor devices are manufactured using intricate fabrication processes. These processes involve techniques such as photolithography, etching, deposition, and doping to pattern and modify the semiconductor material to create desired structures and properties. 13. Moore's Law: Moore's Law is an observation that the number of transistors on an integrated circuit tends to double approximately every two years, while the cost per transistor decreases. This trend has driven the rapid advancement of semiconductor technology and the miniaturization of electronic devices. 14. Beyond Silicon: While silicon has been the dominant material in semiconductor electronics, researchers are exploring alternative materials, such as gallium nitride (GaN) and indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs), to overcome the limitations of silicon and enable new functionalities and higher performance in electronic devices. 15. Emerging Technologies: The field of semiconductor electronics is continuously evolving, and several emerging technologies show promise for future applications. Some of these include quantum computing, organic semiconductors, flexible electronics, and nanoelectronics, which explore the behavior of materials and devices at the nanoscale. 16. Optoelectronics: Optoelectronics involves the study and application of devices that can emit, detect, and manipulate light. Semiconductor materials, such as gallium arsenide (GaAs) and indium phosphide (InP), are commonly used in optoelectronic devices like light-emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, photodiodes, and photovoltaic cells. 17. Semiconductor Memories: Semiconductor memories are an essential part of electronic systems, providing storage for digital data. Some commonly used semiconductor memory technologies include Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DRAM), Static Random-Access Memory (SRAM), and Flash memory. Each type has different characteristics related to speed, density, volatility, and endurance. 18. Power Electronics: Power electronics deals with the control and conversion of electrical power using semiconductor devices. Power electronic devices, such as power diodes, thyristors, insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), and gate turn-off thyristors (GTOs), enable efficient power conversion, motor control, and voltage regulation in various applications ranging from electric vehicles to renewable energy systems. 19. Semiconductor Lasers: Semiconductor lasers, also known as diode lasers, are compact and efficient sources of coherent light. They are widely used in telecommunications, laser printing, barcode readers, fiber optics, and many other applications. Semiconductor lasers are based on the principle of stimulated emission of photons by excited electrons in a semiconductor material. 20. Process Technology: The process technology for semiconductor manufacturing plays a crucial role in determining device performance, power consumption, and cost. Advances in process technology have led to the scaling down of transistor dimensions, allowing for more transistors on a chip, higher speeds, and reduced power consumption. Process technologies, such as complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS), are the backbone of modern semiconductor fabrication. 21. Semiconductor Packaging: Semiconductor devices need to be packaged to protect them and provide electrical connections. Packaging technologies involve encapsulating the semiconductor die, attaching it to a substrate, and connecting it to external circuits. Different packaging techniques, such as through-hole, surface mount, and flip-chip, are used depending on the application and required performance. 22. Reliability and Failure Analysis: Reliability is a critical aspect of semiconductor electronics. Understanding the factors that affect device reliability and conducting failure analysis are crucial for ensuring long-term performance. Failure analysis techniques, such as electrical testing, thermal imaging, and microscopy, are employed to identify the root causes of failures and improve device design and manufacturing processes. 23. System-on-Chip (SoC): System-on-Chip is an integration technique that combines various functions, including processors, memory, peripherals, and interfaces, onto a single semiconductor chip. SoCs are the foundation of complex electronic systems, such as smartphones, tablets, and IoT devices, enabling high performance and power efficiency in a compact form factor. 24.

Canadian Refugee Procedure/72-75 - Judicial Review. IRPA Sections 72-75. Sections 72-75 of the "Immigration and Refugee Protection Act" read: Section 72(1): Judicial review is commenced by making an application for leave to the Court. Section 72(1) provides that judicial review by the FEderal Court is commenced by making an application for leave to the Court. Historically, leave has been granted in about 16.8 per cent of cases, with 46.2 per cent of judicial reviews succeeding from among those granted leave. Section 74(d): An appeal to the Federal Court of Appeal may be made only if the judge certifies that a serious question of general importance is involved. Section 74(d) of the IRPA provides that, subject to section 87.01, an appeal to the Federal Court of Appeal may be made only if, in rendering judgment, the judge certifies that a serious question of general importance is involved and states the question. To be certified, a question must be a serious one that: (i) is dispositive of the appeal; (ii) transcends the interests of the immediate parties to the litigation; and (iii) contemplates issues of broad significance or general importance. As a corollary, the question must also have been raised and dealt with by the court below and it must arise from the case, not from the Judge’s reasons. Furthermore, the question must not have already been determined and settled in another appeal. The Federal Court of Appeal has entertained an appeal without a certified question, where the issue on appeal involved the jurisdiction of the Federal Court judge or an allegation of bias. As stated in "Canada v. Aziz":The Minister argues that in this case no certified question is required. He relies on a number of immigration cases in which this Court has permitted an appeal to proceed despite the absence of a certified question. For example, in "Forde v. Canada", the Court entertained an appeal from a Federal Court order staying a deportation pending the disposition of another immigration case. The Court concluded that no certified question was required because issue was whether the stay order was within the jurisdiction of the Federal Court under paragraph 50(1)(b) of the "Federal Courts Act," R.S.C. 1985, c. F-7. In "Subhaschanddran v. Canada", the Court entertained an appeal from a Federal Court order that it construed as a refusal of a judge to grant or dismiss a motion to stay a deportation. This Court has also held that no certified question is required to appeal an order on a motion for recusal based on an allegation of bias, because such an allegation goes to the jurisdiction of a judge to adjudicate the case: see, "Narvey v. M.C.I. and" Re Zündel. [internal citations omitted]This is on the basis that paragraph 27(1)("c") of the "Federal Courts Act" authorizes an appeal from an interlocutory judgment of the Federal Court in limited circumstances.

Supplementary mathematics/Trigonometry. Trigonometry is one of the most important and best arithmetic calculations. Of course, trigonometry has six components to calculate. Read the definition of trigonometry well. What is trigonometry? Trigonometry is one of the branches of arithmetic and mathematics that examines the relationship between lengths and angles of triangles and makes a formulation for the relationship between angles and side lengths for triangles. In short, Shore said that scientific trigonometry is for Triangle is used to calculate the length and sides of a triangle. The word trigonometry comes from the Greek word (trigon, metron) which means triangle and size, respectively, and in the compound word, it means the measurement of a triangle.This concept was first given by the Greek mathematician Hipparchus. Trigonometry can only be calculated for right triangles and different triangles are not used.Trigonometry is divided into two hypothetical branches, spherical trigonometry (space) and circular trigonometry (plane).Angles in trigonometry are calculated in radians. Trigonometry, in general, is about trigonometric formulas, trigonometric ratios, and functions, right triangles, etc. History. The history of trigonometry goes back to BC, due to the lack of sources, it is not possible to say which civilization invented trigonometry, but we know that Iranians, Arabs, Greeks, Babylonians, Germans, Latins, etc. thought about this issue.In order for humans to be able to find the sides and angles of a triangle, they came up with the idea of trigonometry. In the Babylonian, Sumerian and Greek texts, such calculations for the sides and angles can be seen in the basic trigonometric method.Of course, Iranian, Arab, English, French, German, etc. scientists took steps in the field of trigonometry and used trigonometry in other topics such as Fourier series, integral, function, analytic geometry, derivative, spatial geometry, etc., which require calculations. They have included trigonometry.

Robotics/Feedback Sensors/Tachometers. A tachometer is a type of sensor used to measure the rotational speed or angular velocity of a rotating object, such as an engine, motor, or shaft. It provides information about the speed of rotation, which is typically expressed in revolutions per minute (RPM). Tachometers can be categorized into two main types: contact and non-contact tachometers. 1. Contact Tachometers: These tachometers require physical contact with the rotating object. They typically use a mechanical or magnetic sensor that comes into direct contact with the object to measure its rotational speed. The sensor may consist of a wheel or probe that makes contact with a rotating surface, generating electrical signals proportional to the rotational speed. Contact tachometers are commonly used in automotive applications, such as measuring the RPM of an engine. 2. Non-Contact Tachometers: These tachometers do not require direct physical contact with the rotating object. Instead, they utilize optical, infrared, or laser sensors to measure the speed of rotation. Non-contact tachometers work by emitting a beam of light or infrared radiation onto a reflective mark or surface on the rotating object. The reflected light is then detected and analyzed to determine the rotational speed. Non-contact tachometers are often used in industrial applications where contact with the rotating object may not be feasible or safe. Tachometers find applications in various fields, including automotive, aerospace, manufacturing, and laboratory testing. They are used to monitor the speed and performance of engines, motors, turbines, conveyors, and other rotating machinery. Tachometers can also be integrated into control systems to provide feedback and enable speed regulation or synchronization of rotating components. In addition to measuring rotational speed, some tachometers may offer additional features, such as recording maximum and minimum speeds, displaying total revolutions or elapsed time, and providing alarm functions for abnormal speed conditions. Overall, tachometers are essential tools for monitoring and controlling the rotational speed of various machinery and equipment, allowing for precise operation and maintenance.e

Robotics/Feedback Sensors/Accelerometers. Accelerometers are sensors used to measure acceleration forces experienced by an object in a specific direction or multiple axes. They are commonly used in a wide range of applications, including smartphones, automotive systems, aerospace, robotics, gaming devices, and more. Accelerometers enable the detection of motion, tilt, vibration, and changes in velocity. Accelerometers can be categorized into two main types: single-axis and multi-axis accelerometers. 1. Single-Axis Accelerometers: Single-axis accelerometers measure acceleration along a single axis, typically the vertical axis (Z-axis). They provide information about linear acceleration or forces acting in a specific direction. Single-axis accelerometers are often used in applications where acceleration in one direction is the primary concern, such as free-fall detection in smartphones or detecting vertical movements in industrial machinery. 2. Multi-Axis Accelerometers: Multi-axis accelerometers measure acceleration in multiple axes, usually three axes: X-axis (horizontal), Y-axis (horizontal), and Z-axis (vertical). They provide information about acceleration forces acting in different directions simultaneously. Multi-axis accelerometers offer more comprehensive motion sensing capabilities and are used in applications such as inertial measurement units (IMUs), navigation systems, gesture recognition, and stabilization systems. Accelerometers work based on the principles of Newton's second law of motion. They typically consist of a mass suspended on springs or micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) structures. When subjected to acceleration, the mass moves relative to its support structure, causing a change in electrical properties or generating an electrical signal proportional to the applied acceleration. This signal can then be processed and analyzed to determine the magnitude and direction of the acceleration. Accelerometers are commonly integrated with other sensors, such as gyroscopes, magnetometers, and barometers, to provide more accurate motion sensing and orientation information. This combination of sensors is often found in inertial measurement units (IMUs) used for motion tracking, navigation, and virtual reality applications. In summary, accelerometers are versatile sensors that enable the measurement of acceleration forces in one or more axes. They are used in numerous applications to detect motion, monitor vibrations, provide orientation data, and enable various interactive features in electronic devices and systems.

Supplementary mathematics/Cylindrical coordinate system. The distance from the selected reference plane that is perpendicular to the axis. Cylindrical coordinate system or abbreviated cylindrical coordinate system is a three-dimensional coordinate system and has calculations that use length, width, height, angles and rarely integral and trigonometric calculations. This type of coordinate system is simpler than spherical coordinates. To determine the position in cylindrical coordinates by measuring the point from the distance of a reference axis and the center as its distance and determining the dimension and direction of the axis point relative to where the point is located and the distance from the plane is determined. The selected reference perpendicular to the axis must be specified. It depends on which direction and at which point and in which sign the reference plane is located, and the distance is also determined as a positive and negative sign.The origin of the coordinates is also a place in all three longitudinal dimensions of the coordinates must be zero.The distance from the point to the axis is in the form of radius and length or in short height.Spherical and cylindrical coordinates have two sub-sets called longitudinal coordinates and angular coordinates, whose longitudinal coordinates are made in the form of threes based on integrals and trigonometry, and their angles are calculated in the form of spatial angle calculation.

History of wireless telegraphy and broadcasting in Australia/Topical/Biographies/Lewis George Pimblett. Lewis George Pimblett. Lewis George "Lou" Pimblett, together with W. Jewell, established an experimental broadcasting station at Wagga Wagga in 1923, apparently under the auspices of the amateur licence of 2ZE (Frank John Federal Laker), Deniliquin. The station was owned by their business "Riverina Wireless Supplies." It broadcast regular concerts and special programming in 1923 and 1924. A company was formed in 1924 with substantial capital, to take over the business and to hold a B class broadcasting licence. The licence was granted in 1924, but by this time financial support had been lost and the B Class station never operated on air. A comprehensive biography of Lewis George "Lou" Pimblett has not yet been prepared for this Wikibook, however the following resources have been assembled in preparation: Key internet links: A comprehensively researched and well illustrated article about the life of Lew, but with only brief reference to the Riverina Wireless Supplies days: Lewis George Pimblett - Inventor Of Harbord + Mona Vale: Toymaker Of 'Pim's Toys' + First Speaking Robot Maker Of 1952 First World War Embarkation Roll - Lewis George Pimblett Bubble Pipe Patent

Death notice for Pimblett's mother PIMBLETT.— On the 14th May, at the residence of her husband, the beloved wife of W. C. Pimblett, of Beaufort, aged 46 years. 1920s. 1923. 1923 09. Apparent first transmission from Riverina Wireless Supplies, but from Deniliquin WIRELESS IN WAGGA. While Wagga people were enjoying the eisteddfod competitions, pictures and other amusements last evening, little did they know of the delight that was the lot of a small band of persons gathered around the wireless outfit of Mr. Russell Anderson in Crampton-street, to whose aerials a fine receiving set had been attached by Mr. L. G. Pimblett, of the Riverina Wireless Supplies Co. This company had arranged a concert in Deniliquin, the items in which were to be transmitted by wireless. The musical numbers — instrumental and vocal — were heard with wonderful distinctness, though it was unfortunate that the concert was marred by the unusually stormy conditions, the atmospheric disturbance at times being very great. However, the music heard was delightful, and the experience novel, especially when during the evening some very fine concert items were picked up from Rose Bay, Sydney. The delight of the little company of "listeners-in" was great when at the end of the Deniliquin concert, a little after 9.30, the playing of the National Anthem was clearly heard and then the voice of the conductor of the concert saying "good-night" in clear and distinct tones to his friends in Wagga — his voice traversing the couple of hundred miles, without the aid of any wires, as in ordinary telephony! This little demonstration, revealed the wonderful, possibilities of wireless, and Mr. Pimblett is of opinion that when his company opens business shortly in Wagga it will have no difficulty in placing a large number of private "sets," by which people will be able to hear concerts taking place hundreds of miles away and receive messages from their distant friends with the greatestof of ease. 1923 12. Pimblett & Jewell's company negotiating for a Class B licence & seeking business RIVERINA WIRELESS SUPPLIES. Commonwealth Bank Buildings, Wagga Have made all necessary arrangements for up-to-date Showrooms and demonstrating Parlour. And are negotiating for the erection of a high powered BROADCASTING STATION to disseminate from Wagga News, Market Reports and Musical Entertainment throughout the Riverina. We have had the experience and can talk to you on the subject. Beware of the inexperienced. We are at your service and will advise you free of any obligation. Detailed announcement of commencement of operations of Riverina Wireless Supplies with Pimblett and Jewell WIRELESS IN WAGGA. NEW SERVICE INSTALLED. Ever since wireless was introduced into the county districts, Wagga and the Riverina have been actively interested in the science which possesses such a wealth of possibilities. Some months ago a company was formed in Deniliquin called the Riverina Wireless Supplies. The company decided to restrict its operations to the Riverina and to establish its headquarters at Wagga. The object of the company was to install a distributing station at Wagga for the whole of Riverina and to establish a supply centre. Many people have been interested in the erection of a wireless aerial at the back of the Commonwealth Bank. This aerial marks the definite establishment of the company's headquarters here. Mr. W. Jewell, a representative of the company, has been in Wagga for the past month supervising the erection and installation. A few days ago he was joined by Mr. L. G. Pimblett, and in a room above the bank they are experimenting day and night, putting in the pioneer work for the establishment of a wireless service. Both Mr. Jewell and Mr. Pimblett will welcome any inquiries from interested people, and in a few days they will have a good stock of wireless equipment on hand. For the time being the company will confine itself to experimental transmissions. Afterwards regular concerts will be given. The programmes will be varied, with piano-forte solos, vocal and instrumental numbers and possibly items of news. The company will be able to arrange concerts at private houses. 1924. 1924 02. Pimblett broadcasts a programme of music from the Riverina Wireless Supplies station for the opening of the new CofE Hall ST. LUKE'S NEW HALL. OPENING CEREMONY LAST NIGHT. The little band of voluntary workers who have been giving much of their spare time for many months on the erection of a hall adjoining St. Luke's Church were adequately rewarded for their labors when, last night, about 200 people gathered to witness the opening of the hall, which ceremony was performed by the Ven. Archdeacon Pike. In formally declaring the hall opened the Archdeacon said that the building was chiefly intended for the purposes of a Sunday School for the Church of England parishioners of South Wagga. It was also their intention to make it a hall for various social functions for the people of that part of Wagga irrespective of their creed. He hoped that in the future they would be able to install a small motion picture plant. The building was largely constructed by voluntary labor. The people of that part of Wagga had done splendid work in the past ten years. After having told the assemblage that the building had cost £650 to construct and that £52/6/8 had already been promised to liquidate this debt, the Archdeacon then made an appeal for further funds, stating that he would start the first £100 with a donation of £3/3/. Ald. Hardy said that he would start the second £100. Donations came freely, and the fund was the richer by £52/13/4, when the Archdeacon closed the appeal for that night. Other speakers included Mr. H. A. Hansard, whom the Archdeacon described as the father of the Sunday School," having commenced it during the Easter of 1914, Mr. Day and Aldermen Hardy and Gormly. During the evening Mr. L. G. Pimblett, of the Riverina Wireless Supplies Co., broadcasted a programme of music. A euchre party and dance followed. The following were the prize winners in the euchre tournament:— Ladies, Mrs. Gore and Miss O'Shea; consolation prize, Mrs. Peech. Men, Mr. E. Taylor and Mr. O. Black; consolation prize, Mr. C. McDonald. Pimblett broadcasts a further programme of news from the Riverina Wireless Supplies station NEWS BY WIRELESS. "Hello, Hello, Hello, everybody! Riverina Wireless Supplies speaking." Mr. Pemblett (sic), of the Riverina Wireless Supplies experimental station, was clearly heard by wireless receiving experimenters in many parts of New South Wales and northern Victoria when he began broadcasting at 3.15 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the day's news, read from yesterday's "Daily Advertiser." Throughout the reading and the musical programme given the transmission was clear and distinct. The distribution had been well announced by radio, and a large number of amateurs with small and large sets were "listening in." Outback farmers heard the general news and the market reports several hours before they received their daily papers. 1924 03. Pimblett plans an outside broadcasts of speeches from the Empire Hall from the Riverina Wireless Supplies station SPEECHES TO BE BROADCASTED. For the after-dinner speeches at the Empire Hall, Riverina Wireless Supplies, Ltd., will attempt to broadcast the proceedings by means of an amplifier connected to a telephone in the hall, which, in turn, will be connected with another amplifier at the broadcasting station. Preliminary experiments will be carried out this morning. Last night the Greater Wagga League received a telegram from the farmers, who were then at Narandera, stating that the arrangements which had been made at Wagga, and of which they had been informed, met with their full approval. They would leave Narandera at 6 o'clock this morning. Riverina Wireless Supplies station to broadcast to the Wagga Life Saving Club's carnival BEACH CARNIVAL. FOR THE HOSPITAL The Wagga Life Saving Club's Carnival in aid of the Wagga District Hospital, which was postponed on February 23 will take place on Saturday next. There will be an attractive programme of swimming events, canoe races, etc., and during the evening session a powerful wireless receiving set will be installed. The most important news of the day from Sydney and Melbourne will be broadcasted to the Wagga beach. Madame Hilda Sedgley and Mr. Walter Smith have kindly consented to contribute musical items gratuitously and these will be broadcasted from the Riverina wireless station and will be heard by persons with wireless receiving sets throughout New South Wales and Victoria. With the aid of amplifiers and loud speaking reproducers which will be installed on the lawn near the Wagga Beach the wireless programme should be heard by all present at the carnival. Pimblett again broadcasts from the Riverina Wireless Supplies station, demonstrating broadcasting to the Wagga High School's P&C Assoc HIGH SCHOOL P. AND C. MOVEMENT GAINING SUPPORT. The enthusiasm that characterised the formation of the Wagga High School Parents' and Citizens' Association was again in evidence at the first meeting of the Association, held at the Town Hall last night. In the absence of the president, Mr. R. H. Blamey took the chair. After considerable discussion a constitution and by-laws which had been framed by the Executive, were adopted. Among other things, the by-laws provide that the annual membership fee shall be 1/- and a general meeting of the Association shall be held at the High School on the second Thursday in the month. During the evening Mr. Lou Pimblett, of the Riverina Wireless Supplies Co., gave a demonstration of broadcasting. A cabinet four valve receiving set with an indoor aerial was installed in the Council Chamber and it picked up a musical programme sent from the company's station at the Commonwealth Bank buildings. The various items were transmitted very clearly and the demonstration was remarkably successful. Replying to a vote of thanks, Mr. Pimblett said that his company was desirous of helping in every way the Association and the school. As previous, Pimblett undertakes outside broadcasts of speeches from the Empire Hall from the Riverina Wireless Supplies station THE DINNER. PARLIAMENTARIANS ATTEND. THE WEST WANTS IRRIGATION. Nearly one hundred and fifty persons were present at the dinner given by the Greater Wagga League to the visitors at the Empire Hall, Wagga, last night. The Wagga district men were representative of all sections of the community. The Hon. R. T. Ball, M.L.A., Minister for Works and Railways, and the Hon. J. F. O'Regan, M.L.C. attended. After the dinner several speeches were made by guests and hosts. For the Greater Wagga League, Mr. H. E. Gissing, president, welcomed the guests. They had already travelled 500 miles, and he hoped that before they covered the 500 miles of the return journey they would have seen and learned much and would have found much pleasure in the learning. Ald. D. T. Byrnes, the Mayor, on behalf of the citizens of the town, welcomed the Western men. He expressed gratification at the visitors' coming and at their mission and hoped that they would achieve their ultimate aim of obtaining a weir across the Macquarie River for a western irrigation scheme. Knowing the country, Mr. Byrnes knew that the execution of the scheme would be for its great benefit and to the benefit of the State. "Such an inter-district visit as this is of great value to both hosts and guests," Mr. Byrnes said. "This is the first I have known that is of such significance. I believe that its result will be the widespread adoption of the policy of our western visitors." Mr. A. E. Fuller, vice-president of the Macquarie Valley Water Conservation and irrigation League, and a brother of the Premier of New South Wales, Sir George Fuller, thanked the Greater Wagga League for its welcome, and congratulated it on its excellent organisation of the reception. He spoke highly of Wagga as the party had seen it, commenting specially on the width of its streets. THE VISITORS' MISSION. Yesterday we saw part of a tremendous irrigation scheme which, though it has been under development for sixteen years, is now only one third complete," said Mr. Fuller, "In the west we have too many droughts. We need irrigation to protect us against them. Some years ago the Government officers made a survey of the Macquarie Valley. Surveyor Ritchie and Mr. Wade, chief engineer, formulated a scheme which we are now following. At Burrandong, sixteen miles above Wellington, two hills are close together. Above them the valley widens out. The scheme is to build at the place where the hills are close a dam, as big as Burrinjuck, across the junction of the Cudgagong and Macquarie Rivers. From this scheme, 200,000 acres toward Narromine could be irrigated. Four to five years ago the league of which the visitors are members was formed to press the obtaining of the dam. The West has some of the finest irrigation land in Australia. Experts have declared that it would be eminently suitable for such a scheme as is proposed. The water would be run to Narromine, where a take-off weir would be built. Immediately past this are thousands of acres of red-brown cultivated irrigable land which will take all the water it can obtain. Some months ago the league sent a deputation to the Premier asking for the construction of this dam. He promised that he would refer the scheme to the Public Works Committee. The cost would be £2,000,000, but this was not as much as had been lost by droughts between Bourke and Wellington. In a few years the weir would pay for itself indirectly. Many conferences of the great district affected have been held, and the farmers are all keen to get the irrigation. The league's purpose in visiting Riverina is primarily to obtain information concerning irrigation, particularly as applied to grazing purposes. With such information, and first-hand knowledge of the subject, we can place a much stronger case before the Government. . . . The last speech of the evening was given by Mr. F. Bennett, a prominent member of the visiting party, and a native of Wagga. Speaking of his pride in Wagga, Mr. Bennett said that he was "the youngest son of the oldest hand on the Murrumbidgee." His father had settled on the Murrumbidgee before any others had done so. One thing of special value the visitors had been taught was the value of conservation of fodder by an ensilage method. If the Department of Agriculture were to broadcast through the West information as to the simplicity, cheapness, and effectiveness of the making of ensilage, all the farmers there would soon be using it. Soon, with better methods of farming and fodder conservation, the drier districts would not want so much drought fodder from Riverina, which would thus lose a great source of revenue. The growth of wheat, Mr. Bennett concluded, was not an economic proposition. The best thing that could be done was to combine sheep and wheat farming. (Applause). During the evening special musical items were given by Messrs. Robinson, Franklin, Paull and Stevenson, and Dr. Welsh. All were well given and warmly received. Later in the evening speeches made by Messrs Ball and Griffiths were broadcasted by Riverina Wireless Supplies. Ltd. ON TO BURRINJUCK. At 8 o'clock this morning the visitors leave Wagga. They first visit the power house and pumping plant, at the invitation of the Mayor, and will then continue their journey accompanied as far as Borambola and Wolkolena Stations by representatives of the Greater Wagga League. After inspecting the irrigation schemes on these stations they will proceed to Gundagai and thence to Burrinjuck. As previous, listener report INTERESTED IN IRRIGATION. The Macquarie Valley Water Conservation and Irrigation Committee, consisting of twelve car loads or more of farmers, shire engineers, and shire clerks and others interested in the project of a water conservation scheme in the Macquarie Valley, have been on a lengthy motor tour this week. The party, which consisted of residents from Narromine, Dubbo, and Wellington, drove from Narromine to the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Areas. While on the Areas they crammed a week's inspection into two days. On Tuesday they travelled all over Griffith, inspecting farms, etc., and arrived at Leeton on Wednesday, when 69 sat down for dinner at Andy McInnes' "Deniliquin Cafe". It was all bustle then to get away to the Yanco Experiment Farm, the Cannery, Butter Factory, etc. At 4.30 p.m. the party decided to go straight on to Narandera on account of the approaching storm. On Thursday morning an early start was made for Berembed Weir, where another rush inspection was made. The party was put on the road for Wagga and last night we heard them (by wireless in McInnes' Cafe) being entertained in Wagga. After hearing a couple of orchestral items, the Hon. R. T. Ball, M.L.A., Secretary for Public Works and Minister for Railways and State Industrial Enterprises, spoke on several proposed water conservation works that had been investigated by his Department. One of the party, a Mr. Fisher we believe, then spoke on the Macquarie Valley project and how they proposed with the aid of irrigation to grow fodder, etc. The speaker said they had had a good trip, travelling to Forbes, then on to the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Areas. The committee hoped to make their report in a few days time and then the scheme would be submitted to Parliament. The speaker desired to thank all those who had so kindly helped to make the trip so interesting and assisted them in gathering important data. He also desired to thank the Hon. Mr. Ball for his promise of assistance. The next wireless item was a song and chorus, then the Wagga Wireless broadcasting station informed us, they would adjourn our entertainment for half an hour while they tried to get Farmers Broadcasting station in Sydney. Evidently they succeeded in hearing Farmers, because they forgot all about us sitting in McInnes' cafe and we heard no more. The speakers were clear and as distinct as if speaking in the room, instead of being 100 miles away. Mr. McInnes says the grating noise you hear so much is caused by the air being disturbed by electric disturbances in the air. The best night for listening to wireless is on a wet night when the rain is pouring down. We are now anxiously waiting for a wet night. As previous, Riverina Wireless Supplies station broadcasts to the Wagga Life Saving Club's carnival HOSPITAL CARNIVAL. ON THE WAGGA BEACH. RESULTS OF EVENTS. On Saturday, an afternoon that was sunny, but was chilled by winter breezes, the Wagga Life Saving Club's Hospital benefit carnival was commenced on the Wagga beach. "Cold was the river and cold was the breeze," and swimmers were not sufficiently enthusiastic to stay in the water longer than their races required. However, a good display was given in competitive events, and in the Club's exhibition of life saving by reel and line. In the 100 yards race Ross Miller (sen.) was the winner, with R. Wunsch as runner up, but in the 220 yards he was not able to make up the ten seconds of Wunsch's start. On the beach and the bank above it many children played through the afternoon. Older folk made the beach and river bank a promenade ground and bought freely of the wares displayed on the beach stalls. At night the crowd, which was a little greater, was well entertained. The results of the afternoon session's swimming races were:— 33 yards youth's handicap (boys under 16): H. Thompson (scr.) 1; A. Blamey (5 secs.) 2. 100 yards handicap: R. Miller (scr.) 1; R. Wunsch (5 sec) 2. 220 yards Beach Handicap: R. Wunsch (10 secs) 1: R. Miller (scr.) 2. Several novelty competitions for children were conducted. The winners of these were: Sand modelling, Florrie Ruskin (map of Australia) 1: J. Bell (model of barge) 2. At night an interesting wireless programme was conducted by the Riverina Wireless Supplies. It consisted of vocal items contributed by Madame Hilda Sedgely, heard to best advantage in "Sink, Red Sun," and Miss Mollie Lockwood. Several items of the day's news made available by the "Daily Advertiser" were received clearly. "The Great Gavan" made the crowd merry by his brilliant ventriloquism. In both the afternoon and evening sessions the ladies of the Life Saving Club worked well and did much in raising the £20 which is to be given to the Wagga Hospital as the financial result of the carnival. Wagga Radio Club experiments with vehicular reception of the Riverina Wireless station WIRELESS WHILE MOTORING. WAGGA PARTY ENTERTAINED. That the Wagga Radio Club is an active body and intends to make full use of its experimental license, is apparant from the following facts. Yesterday afternoon, four enthusiastic members of the Club, working in conjunction with the Riverina Wireless Supplies Co., set out on an experimental tour in a motor car. They journeyed as far as Copland's Hill, carrying with them a valve radio set, with one valve amplifier. Throwing a wire over two trees which acted as an aerial, they enjoyed an impromptu concert in the bush, the music being distinctly heard through a loud-speaker. The success of their first venture, led the experimenters to try a further experiment. This time, about 120ft of high tension wire was wound round the motor car and, with a piece of wire gauze dragging along the road, at the rear of the car, which acted as an earth wire, a concert was heard clearly by the occupants of the car, all the way into Wagga. This is probably the first occasion on which a radio concert has been heard while travelling in a motor car in Riverina, and possibly, in the State. The start of the WJAZ misidentification debacle, WJAZ Chicago to broadcast for Australia on March 30 HELLO, CHICAGO! WIRELESS TELEPHONY MELBOURNE, Thursday. If all goes well, wireless enthusiasts will hear Chicago talking on the night of March 30. A bold effort to broadcast speeches and musical programmes from America will be made on that date by the Chicago "Tribune" Wireless Station. If the experiment is successful, a new step in wireless telephony will have been made. Australasian experimenters are asked, therefore, to listen in on March 30, and to notify results. The Chicago Station's call letters are WJAZ, and the wave length will be 448 metres. As previous CHICAGO TO AUSTRALIA. MELBOURNE, Thursday. An interesting experiment in long-distance wireless communication will be made on Sunday evening March 30, between the hours of 9 p.m. and midnight (Sydney time), when an attempt will be made to establish wireless telephonic connection between America and Australia. The "Chicago Tribune," one of the leading newspapers in the United States, has arranged to broadcast a three hours' speech and music programme for the benefit of radio enthusiasts in the Southern Pacific from its zenith wireless broadcasting station on Edgewater Beach Hotel, Chicago. Extra power will be used, and a special organisation has been created in the endeavour to reach Australia and New Zealand. The station call at Chicago from which the broadcasting will be transmitted is W.J.A.Z., and the wave length will be 448 metres. Pimblett included in experiments by Wagga Radio Club in vehicular reception RADIO CLUB'S EXPERIMENTS. The Junction and the Racecourse hotels were the scenes of impromptu concerts yesterday afternoon. Numbers of people also enjoyed entertainments in the streets. The stage setting was a motor car, and the artists were Messrs Anderson, Pimblett and McGarry, members of the Wagga Radio Club. Following on the success of their experiments in radio telephony last week these enthusiastic members conducted further experiments yesterday. In conjunction with the Riverina Wireless Supplies Co., and using an indoor aerial with no earth wire, music, broadcasted by Mr B. Melrose, who played a violin in the Commonwealth Bank Buildings, was reproduced through a loud speaker, while the three experimenters mentioned were travelling in a motor car. Not wishing to confine the unique joys of the position to themselves, they stopped the car at several points on the road, and on each occasion were quickly surrounded by a curious and wondering throng, which listened attentively until the car again moved on. As previous, further reporting RADIO ON ROAD. A few feet of wire, a receiving set, a piece of fly-proof door netting, and an amateur knowledge of wireless, enabled a picnic party, some miles from Wagga, to enjoy a programme of music sent out by the Riverina Wireless Company from its Wagga experimental station. The party went a few miles out of town, wound the wire round the hood of the car, until it looked like a cage, and made an earth line by attaching a piece of gauze wire, which they threw out behind. They got results from this with the 'phone receivers, but they were not satisfactory, so the gear was overhauled, and the party experimented further, and with pronounced success. Trailing the wire netting behind them, they drove the car 15 miles an hour, covered a lot of country, and finally made a short tour of the town streets, hearing all the time the music from the station. 1924 04. Listeners across Eastern Australia hear Riverina Wireless Supplies with similar programming to WJZ Chicago and assume the latter WAS CHICAGO SPEAKING? In these days of wonderful results with distance wireless telephony almost anything is possible and the listeners-in at Sydney on Sunday night could be forgiven for believing that they heard messages broadcasted from Chicago. It is fairly certain, however, that Chicago was not speaking at the time. It appears that a radio company had arranged to cut out all transmission between certain hours on Sunday night in Sydney because arrangments had been made that the Chicago "Tribune" should send out messages from the roof of its office and an effort would be made to pick the messages up at Sydney. It was expected that part of a speech by Mr. W. M. Hughes and some band items would be broadcasted by the "Tribune." A number of listeners-in at Kempsey and other parts of the State and many Sydney experimenters picked up messages between 7.30 and 8 o'clock. They believed they had caught fragments of a speech, and naturally assumed that it was Mr. Hughes's. They also heard a jazz band playing "Carolina," "Chicago," and other jazz music. It now transpires that the messages were from Wagga and not from Chicago. We learn that the Riverina Wireless Supplies Co., which has a station in the Commonwealth Bank Buildings, Fitzmaurice street, was transmitting between 7.30 and 8 o'clock on Sunday night. They were experimenting with a tone arm from which excellent results are expected. Their wave length was 275 metres. The programme broadcast included phonograph selections among which were a jazz band selection "Carolina," and other jazz music. The time corresponds with the time of receiving in Sydney, and to judge by urgent messages from Sydney yesterday it appears that Wagga's programme was in some quarters mistaken for the Chicago pro-gramme. As previous NOT FROM CHICAGO. Wagga Wireless Numbers. SYDNEY, Wednesday. Wagga is 7000 miles from Chicago, a mere trifle of course, but of interest when wireless "fans" record that broadcasting from Chicago was picked up by Sydney stations. What Sydney stations picked up was not broadcasting from Chicago, but from Wagga. A well-known Sydney operator tells his own tale: "Like many others, I was anxious to hear something from Chicago, and when I first received some signals I jumped to the conclusion that they came from America, and was very pleased with myself. "Then, suddenly, about 8.15, and at intervals afterwards, messages were signed 'Riverina Wireless Supplies, Wagga, New South Wales.' The items I heard, such as 'Chicago' and 'Carolina in the Morning' should have been enough to have told anyone that they could not have come from America. "Both of those songs have got whiskers on them in the States now."

Supplementary mathematics/Classification of data. Data classification is a type of quantity in statistics that calculates data of more than 10 and creates sets of multiple categories. This classification even calculates the average of more than 10 data This topic in applied mathematics in the subject of statistics is very good for categories of height in medium, short, tall, profit and loss in economy and tax, etc. Definitions. Range of Changes. The difference between two numbers, one of which is the largest data and the other is the smallest data, is called the range of changes. categories. The number of specific categories in the categories, which is considered a type of variable, is said to divide the difference between the largest and the smallest data by its number. This category shows which data should be categorized in its range. Abundance. The result of collecting one category within the category is called that there are several data in the collection. handle center. The center of the category means the average of two categories, which is equal to their sum divided by two, which is used for the average of the data.

Tagalog/Verbs. Transitive verbs in Tagalog are conjugated according to the focus and tense of the sentence. A transitive verb can either be "subject-focused" or "object-focused." In English, the same conjugation is used for the following sentences: "I eat chicken" and "I eat the chicken." The verb in both sentences is "eat." In Tagalog, however, different conjugations of "eat" must be used. The first sentence in Tagalog would utilize a "subject-focused" verb and the second sentence an "object-focused" verb. Example: In both sentences, "kumakain" and "kinakain" translates to the word "eat." The distinction between when to use a subject-focused verb and when to use an object-focused verb will develop over time. Subject-focused verbs fall under two families: the "um" family or the "nag" family. Some root words of verbs whose subject-focused conjugation fall under the "um" family are the following. Before enumerating verbs in the "nag" family, a discussion of tenses of the "um" verbs are in order. An example will be displayed here and then a discussion will follow thereafter. Example: Discussion: For subject-focus verb that fall under the "um" family and begin with a consonant, the rules are contained here. For the past tense, an "um" is inserted between the first consonant and vowel of the verb. So, the corresponding past tense for "kain" is "k-um-ain." (For this reason, "kain" falls under the "um" family.) Similarly, the past tense for "sulat" is "s-um-ulat." A similar rule follows for the present tense of an "um" verb. Simply insert an "um" between the first consonant and vowel, but also immediately insert the first "syllable" before preceding with the rest of the word. So, the present tense of "kain" is "k-um-a-KA-in." Notice that the syllable "ka" has been inserted, since this is the first syllable that makes up the word "kain." The present tense of the verb "sulat" is "s-um-u-SU-lat." Furthermore, the present tense of "pila" is "p-um-i-Pɪ-la." Thus, the format of the present tense of this conjugation is: <first consonant> <um> <first vowel> <first syllable> <rest of word> Indeed, mastering Tagalog conjugation is no simple feat! The future tense of subject-focus verbs under the "um" family that start with a consonant is simpler than their counterparts: reiterate the first "syllable" at the beggining of the word. Thus, the future tenses of the words "kain," "sulat," and "pila" are "KA-kain," "SU-sulat," and "PI-pila," respectively. The rules for verbs that start with vowels are very similar but deserving of their own treatment. For the past tense, add "um" at the beginning of the word. Hence, the past tenses for "inom" and "ayos" are "um-inom" and "um-ayos." For the present tense, add "um" and then the first vowel (which is the first syllable) at the beginning of the word. Thus, the present tenses of "inom" and "ayos" are "um-i-inom" and "um-a-ayos." Finally, the future tense needs only a reiteration of the first vowel/syllable at the beginning of the word. So, the future tenses of "inom" and "ayos" are "i-inom" and "a-ayos." Further Examples (using "sagót" and "ulán"): [Article to be finished at a later date.]

Supplementary mathematics/Law of total probability. The law of total probability, which is also known as Bayes' law of probability, is a rule of law in the field of statistics and probability that divides probability calculations into a separate, detailed and advanced part, that is, for example, you have no relative knowledge of the probability of the occurrence of an expression B, and for Finding the probability of an event B that we know, we can use to find the probability of the event B. Multivariate Law of Total Probability. According to this pattern B1..., Bn and an event called set A, the probability of event A can be calculated as a quantitative or weighted average in which the pattern B1..., Bn plays a role to find the calculation of its occurrence. According to each occurrence in the partition pattern with the probability of the occurrence of partitioning in terms of quantity, this formula can be used: formula_1 The same idea can be applied and calculated for random vectors. In this way, it is possible to obtain a For the marginal distribution, we pooled other variables from the joint distribution: formula_2 The law of total probability is both an independent event and the probability of evil, and it is a general law for these two topics. From the definition of conditional probability, we know that

A-level Physics/Health Physics/Transport Phenomena. Transport phenomena refer to the processes by which mass, momentum, energy, and other physical quantities are transported through a medium. These phenomena are fundamental to understanding the behavior of fluids, gases, and solids in various engineering, scientific, and everyday situations. Transport phenomena are governed by principles of conservation laws and fluid mechanics and are crucial in fields such as chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, materials science, and environmental science. The three main types of transport phenomena are: Key concepts and aspects of transport phenomena include: Understanding transport phenomena is essential for designing efficient industrial processes, optimizing material properties, predicting fluid behavior, and solving a wide range of engineering and scientific problems involving the movement of mass, momentum, and energy. Mass Transport. Mass transport, also known as mass transfer, refers to the movement of substances (particles, molecules, or ions) from one location to another within a medium, such as a gas or a liquid. Mass transport can occur due to concentration gradients, pressure differences, or other driving forces. This phenomenon is important in various scientific and engineering disciplines, including chemistry, biology, environmental science, and chemical engineering. There are two main types of mass transport: diffusion and convection. Applications of mass transport include: Understanding mass transport is essential for optimizing processes, predicting behavior in various systems, and designing efficient systems in numerous scientific and engineering applications. Momentum Transport. Momentum transport, also known as momentum transfer or fluid momentum transport, refers to the movement or transfer of momentum within a fluid (liquid or gas). Momentum is a vector quantity that represents the motion of an object and is defined as the product of mass and velocity. In fluid dynamics, momentum transport plays a crucial role in understanding how fluids flow, interact with surfaces, and transfer forces. There are several key concepts and mechanisms associated with momentum transport: Applications of momentum transport include: Momentum transport is a fundamental concept in fluid dynamics, with applications spanning engineering, physics, environmental science, and more. It plays a crucial role in predicting and controlling fluid behavior in a wide range of contexts. Energy Transport. Heat Transfer. Heat transfer is the process of energy exchange between objects or regions due to temperature differences. It occurs in various ways, including conduction, convection, and radiation. Heat transfer is a fundamental concept in physics and engineering, as it influences a wide range of natural and technological processes. Here are the three primary modes of heat transfer: Heat transfer plays a crucial role in various applications, including: Understanding heat transfer processes and their effects is crucial for optimizing engineering designs, improving energy efficiency, and maintaining safe and comfortable environments. Radiative Transfer. Radiative transfer refers to the process by which electromagnetic radiation (such as light) interacts with and is transmitted through a medium, such as gases, liquids, or solids. It is a fundamental concept in various scientific fields, including physics, astronomy, atmospheric science, and remote sensing. The concept of radiative transfer is used to describe how radiation propagates, scatters, absorbs, and is emitted by materials in different environments. Here are some key points related to radiative transfer: Radiative Transfer Equation: The radiative transfer equation is a mathematical framework used to describe the interactions of radiation within a medium. It considers parameters such as absorption, scattering, emission, and the geometry of the medium. Solving this equation for specific scenarios provides insights into how radiation behaves in various environments. Applications: Radiative transfer has diverse applications. In atmospheric science, it is used to model the behavior of sunlight as it passes through the Earth's atmosphere, influencing weather patterns and climate. In astronomy, it helps explain how light from distant celestial objects reaches us and provides information about their composition and temperature. Remote sensing techniques, such as satellite imagery, rely on radiative transfer principles to interpret the signals received from the Earth's surface and atmosphere. Simulation and Modeling: Radiative transfer equations are often solved using numerical simulations and computational models. These simulations help scientists and researchers understand complex radiative processes in different materials and environments. Radiative transfer plays a critical role in advancing our understanding of the behavior of electromagnetic radiation in various contexts, contributing to scientific research, technological applications, and our comprehension of the natural world. Quantum Transport. Quantum transport refers to the behavior of particles, such as electrons or other quantum objects, as they move through a physical system that obeys the laws of quantum mechanics. In the realm of quantum mechanics, particles don't behave in the same way as classical objects, and their behavior can exhibit wave-like and particle-like characteristics simultaneously. Quantum transport phenomena have important implications for understanding electronic devices, materials, and various quantum systems. Here are some key concepts related to quantum transport: Quantum transport has applications in various fields, including condensed matter physics, semiconductor devices, quantum information science, and emerging technologies like quantum computing and quantum communication. It's a fascinating and complex area of study that bridges the gap between the microscopic world of quantum mechanics and the macroscopic behavior of classical systems. Particle Transport.

History of wireless telegraphy and broadcasting in Australia/Topical/Legislation/C1920L00256/Notes. Wireless Telegraphy Regulations 1920. 1910s. 1919. 1919 04. WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY. The removal of the restrictions on wireless on the high seas, except in certain zones, is expected to greatly facilitate communication with ships, and augment telegraphic traffic between these and airships. Moreover, the ships' range increased during the war to 1000 miles. 1920s. 1920. 1920 01. AMATEUR RADIO "A.A.B.S." sparks:— I was pleased to see by "The Sun" (9/1/'20) that someone has at last awakened to the neglected state of our radio communication. The great possibilities offered by this wonderful invention appear to have been overlooked by the Government of this country, to whom the great aid given by wireless during the war should have shown much of its possibilities. Most people would, no doubt, be greatly surprised to learn that a wireless message sent from the Carnarvon station in Wales takes one-fifteenth of a second to reach Sydney, which is in great contrast to the four-hour record offered by cable. Another great point of grievance is the lack of interest shown by the Government in amateur wireless. In the United States of America amateurs are given every encouragement, and radio clubs and radio relay leagues, by which any amateur can communicate with his brother-enthusiasts in all parts of America, are to be found in all the principal towns in the States. Out here in Australia hardly two amateurs seem to be known one to the other. There is one club in Sydney; beyond that there is no other of which I have any knowledge. While our amateurs have to use the old crystal type detectors and instruments, our American cousins use the latest types of valve receivers, by which they can hear the stations in Europe at work. As an amateur my self, I naturally feel being so far behind the times very greatly. The ban on amateur work has only just been lifted in this country, while in America it was lifted in April last year — this shows to a great extent the lack of interest displayed. I am not sure whether it is correct or not, but I have heard that it was stated in Parliament that the amateurs greatly interfered with the sending of Government messages. This seems to be in great contradiction to what Signor Marconi wrote in the March issue, 1919, of the "Wireless World," when he said:— "I consider that the existence of a body of independent and often enthusiastic amateurs constitutes a valuable asset towards the further development of wireless telegraphy." According to an article by Mr. E. T. Fisk, of the Amalgamated Wireless Co., Sydney, the Marconi Co. is willing to erect a station powerful enough to communicate with England on being given permission by the Government to do so, This offer seems to have been neglected by those who should be working for the betterment of this country. 1920 05. Use of Wireless. WAR-TIME RESTRICTIONS MODIFIED. The Federal Government has decided to modify to some extent the restrictions that were placed on the use of wireless telegraphy during the war. Subject to the approval of the authorities, licences for the erection of wireless plants will be granted to Australian ships, to technical schools and similar institutions, and to persons who desire to make use of wireless for instructional purposes and scientific investigation. Regulations dealing with the matter were gazetted yesterday. The licences will be issued for a period of one year, and may be renewed from time to time with the consent of the authorities. The fee for a wireless licence for a ship will be £1 a year, while the fee for an experimental or instructional licence has been fixed at £2 a year. These latter will only be issued to natural-born British subjects, resident in Australia, subject to the production of satisfactory proof of the applicant's competence to conduct experiments scientifically. Persons to whom licences are issued will be required to give a guarantee that they will not make use of any messages of a naval or military character that they may happen to receive, while in the case of experimental plants the licensee must undertake not to use the installation when it is apparent that naval or military signalling is proceeding. The installations will be subject to inspection at any time by duly authorised officers of the Naval Radio service, and the licences may be revoked at any time if the Minister deems such a course desirable. The appliances may also be commandeered by the Government in cases of urgency.

History of wireless telegraphy and broadcasting in Australia/Topical/Legislation/C1905A00008. Summary: Wireless Telegraphy Act 1905 - FRLI: C1905A00008, Act No. 8 of 1905, assented to 18 October 1905 Wireless Telegraphy Act 1905. The commencement of the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1905 reflected the transition of regulation of wireless from the Department of Navy to the Postmaster-General's Department and enabled a new era of amateur activity which had effectively been quashed since early in the first World War. Federation. Sourced from the main page of this Wikibook: On 1 January 1901, when the Australian colonies and the province of South Australia joined together to form a new nation, the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia gave federal governments power to make laws with respect to specifically defined areas (section 51). In particular, paragraph 51(v) explicitly identified "postal, telegraphic, telephonic, and other like services". While there was no stated specific power in respect of the press, it was considered that such power fell within the scope of paragraph 51(i) "trade and commerce with other countries and among the states", among others. Post and Telegraph Act 1901. Sourced from the main page of this Wikibook: The generic powers under section 51(v) were enunciated in detail in the Post and Telegraph Act 1901, but the act only received royal assent 16 November 1901 and commenced 1 December 1901. The act delegated those powers to the newly established Postmaster-General's Department ("PMG"). This Act included two key definitions: (1) "Telegraphic" includes telephonic and (2) "Telegraph" or "telegraph line" means a wire or cable used for telegraphic or telephonic communication including any casing coating tube tunnel or pipe enclosing the same and any posts masts or piers supporting the same and any apparatus connected therewith or any apparatus for transmitting messages or other communications by means of electricity. The Act was silent in respect of the relatively new science of wireless telegraphy, which had not yet assumed commercial proportions but likely fell within the scope of "telegraphic". As wireless telegraphy began to display not only commercial but also defence promise, any possible uncertainty of interpretation was removed by a specific act the Wireless Telegraph Act 1905, which placed these powers under PMG. The possible uncertainty had in no way limited the PMG's interest and participation in the new technology before 1905. Fessenden's tentative initial experiments with wireless telephony would only commence in the following year, but it too clearly fell within scope of the both the Post and Telegraph Act 1901 and the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1905. Nevertheless, once wireless telephony began to shine bright on the commercial and defence horizons, this technology too was deemed to warrant explicit provision and some 14 years later, the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1919 simply amended the definition of wireless telegraphy to include wireless telephony. Wireless Telegraphy Act 1905. Sourced from the main page of this Wikibook: The United Kingdom enacted it Wireless Telegraphy Act in 1904 and it was considered within Australia that a similar approach should be taken. While it appeared clear that the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia placed responsibility for wireless telegraphy with the Commonwealth rather than the individual States and Territories, to remove any possible doubt, the Wireless Telegraphy Act of 1905 made this explicit. The Wireless Telegraphy Act, No. 8 of 1905 may be cited as the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1905 and was assented to 18 October 1905. The initial Act was brief and to the point, being only a single page and even after almost 80 years of amendments, remained equally concise when finally repealed in 1983. The Act: A "Bill for an Act relating to Wireless Telegraphy" was first read in the House of Representatives on 18 August 1905. Resources. A comprehensive summary of matters pertaining to the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1905 has not yet been prepared, however the following resources have been assembled in preparation: Internet Material.

Canadian Refugee Procedure/44-53 - Loss of Status and Removal. IRPA Sections 44-53. Sections 44-53 of the "Immigration and Refugee Protection Act" read: IRPA Section 48: Enforcement of Removal Orders. 48(2): The removal order must be enforced as soon as possible. Discretionary relief for those facing deportation is also available through requests for deferrals of removal. The power is based on subsection 48(2) of the IRPA, which states that "[i]f a removal order is enforceable, the foreign national against whom it was made must leave Canada immediately and the order must be enforced as soon as possible". The idea is that enforcement of the removal order is not "possible" if it would mean refoulement. Upon request, a removals officer must consider whether the individual has offered «new» evidence not previously assessed before the IRB or in a PRRA application that they would be exposed to "a risk of death, extreme sanction or inhumane treatment" if deported.

History of wireless telegraphy and broadcasting in Australia/Topical/Legislation/C1915A00033. Wireless Telegraphy Act 1915. The Wireless Telegraphy Act 1915 simply and concisely amended the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1905 to substitute all instances of "The Postmaster-General" with a generic reference to "the Minister for the time being administering the Act". This was necessary to accommodate the imminent transfer of control of matters pertaining to wireless telegraphy from the Postmaster-General's Department to the Department of Navy, as deemed necessary by the Government as a result of the commencement of the First World War. But also in the future, any further transfer of wireless control to any other Department. Resources.

History of wireless telegraphy and broadcasting in Australia/Topical/Legislation/C1919A00004. Wireless Telegraphy Act 1919. Although wireless telephony had been the subject of experiments in Australia since the early 1900s (most notably by Henry Sutton, callsign XLM), by 1919 there was considerable public interest in wireless telephony, with demonstrations most notably by AWA. The Wireless Telegraphy Act 1905-1915 most likely extended to cover wireless telephony also, but to remove all doubt, the Act was simply and concisely amended to extend the definition of wireless telegraphy to include telephonic communication also. Thus the Australian Government asserted complete control of both wireless telegraphy and the emerging technology of wireless telephony. Resources.

History of Christianity/Origins of Christianity/The Historicity of Jesus of Nazareth. The primary sources for the life of Jesus are the Christian gospels, significantly the Gospel of Mark. Composed around 70 CE, Mark was evidently the first gospel written. The gospels of Matthew and Luke are thought to have been based on Mark as well as an unknown quote source, with the Gospel of John standing in contrast both in terms of content and its later dating (c. 100 CE). Mark contains no virgin birth or post-resurrection appearances of Jesus, as opposed to Matthew and Luke, which also introduce contradictions related to Jesus's birth. It is assumed that prior to Mark's composition, details of Jesus's life were passed on by oral tradition. Non-Christian sources for Jesus's existence are dated later (the earliest c. 93 CE) and provide no original details of substance. Scholars argue that Jesus existed on the basis of his having a following, though only his baptism and death by crucifixion are widely considered to be definite historical events. Some hold that a family as poor as Jesus's would not have been significantly documented. Rome for its part indeed executed thousands by crucifixion, specifically targeting Jews in its 70 CE Siege of Jerusalem (which Jesus allegedly foresaw). Alternative views suggest that Jesus was either largely or entirely mythical; though dismissed by mainstream scholars, these theories have gained traction online. Just as all religions draw from existing beliefs (e.g. Judaism's rewriting of Mesopotamian creation myths, Buddhism's incorporation of Hinduism, and Roman religion's robbery of Greek gods), Christianity provided a renewal of Judaism, declaring the identity of its Messiah—rewording Old Testament passages to fulfill claimed prophesies. A source of inspiration for the story of Jesus (the King of Kings) has been postulated as Julius Caesar (d. 44 BCE), whose deification led to his heir, another Caesar, becoming the first Roman emperor (27 BCE – 14 CE). Adjacent to spiritual teachings, Jesus endorses paying taxes to Rome. In the early 4th century CE, the church declared baselessly that Jesus's birthday aligned with the winter solstice. In 525 CE, a Byzantine monk devised the enduring BC/AD dating system, doubtfully implying Jesus to have been born in 1 BCE/CE. The rise of fundamentalism in the United States (starting around the late 19th century) fueled beliefs regarding Jesus's divinity and the Bible's inerrancy. Subsequent secular scholarship has not supported those views.

English as an Additional Language/Progressives. The progressive in English describes actions that were ongoing at one point in time. It can also be called the continuous. Past Progressives. The past progressive describes an action that was ongoing in the past but is no longer going on. The past progressive can be used to describe an action that was ongoing before it was interrupted. E.g. Sally was eating pasta before the guests arrived. It can also be used to describe two actions that were going on simultaneously. E.g. While he was cooking dinner, I was in bed sleeping. The past perfect progressive describes an action that started and was continuously going on until one point in the past. E.g. I had been fighting with my brother for the entire morning. Present Progressive. The present progressive describes an action that is still being actively done. Unlike in other languages, the simple present cannot be substituted for the present progressive as the simple present only describes general facts. The present progressive can be used to describe an action that is currently ongoing. E.g. They are exercising right now. It can also be used to describe a planned future action. E.g. She is catching a train tomorrow.

Jenvey declines to express an opinion on Marconi's rights NEWS OF THE DAY. Mr. Jenvey, the telegraphic expert of the Postal department, declines to express any opinion as to the question raised by "The Age" as to the State's relations to the Marconi wireless telegraphy patents. Other officials, however, declare, that although in the event of the Australian Post Office adopting wireless telegraphy for commercial and other purposes compensation will be due to the Marconi Company as an act of justice, yet under the Postal Acts of the various colonies the State has the sole right to engage in telegraphic business. The sections in the acts giving the Postal department supreme control over the telegraphic system would apply. As previous GENERAL NEWS Before wireless telegraphy can be introduced in Victoria it is quite possible that the Postal authorities will have to purchase the patent rights for this colony from the inventor. The Imperial authorities are now negotiating with Mr Marconi for the right to install his system in Great Britain, and it is understood that there is every probability of their coming to terms. The Victorian Postal authorities believe, however, that wireless telegraphy or any cognate application of electrical power comes under a section of the Post-office Act which gives the department the exclusive right to transmit messages over the electric wires. Mr. H. V. Jenvey, chief electrical engineer to the department, has not yet completed his experiments with the wireless system, so that no immediate steps can be taken to apply it for commercial or defence purposes. When that time does come Mr Marconi's claims to patent rights will have to be considered. 1901 11. Tasmanian government seeking wireless telegraphy between Tasmania and nearby islands TASMANIAN GRIEVANCES. LAUNCESTON, Thursday. A meeting of the Chamber of Commerce today decided to ask the Federal Postmaster-General to inquire into the adaptability of wireless telegraphy for cheap communication between Tasmania and the mainland. The president stated that Lloyd's had approached the Government for the use of Swan and King islands, and were prepared to install the system at their own expense. The Government had granted the application. Complaint was made that queries made by the Customs Department are referred to Hobart, and thence to Melbourne, the replies being received via Hobart, causing unnecessary delay. The chamber resolved that the Federal Government should be asked to give the local collector power to deal direct with Melbourne on these matters. Post and Telegraph Act considered to regulate wireless telegraphy also WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY. Can the Postal department prevent any private firm establishing a system of wireless telegraphy within the Commonwealth? This in effect is the substance of a question to be put to the Postmaster General in the Senate on Wednesday. There is, it is said, a movement on foot to transmit telegraphic messages from Tasmania to one of the adjoining islands, a service for which a private company proposes to collect rates. To permit wireless telegraphy in the hands of private companies to come into competition with the ordinary telegraph and cable services might, of course, prejudice the revenue of the Telegraph department. The Post and Telegraph Act, however, gives the Postal department the "exclusive right to transmit messages by telegraph," and this is broadly interpreted to cover any system of wireless telegraphy. Before employing the new system for its own purposes the Postal department would however, have to pay the inventor for his patent rights. As previous WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY. In reply to suggestions that the system of wireless telegraphy may be established within the Commonwealth by private firms, the postal department points out that the Post and Telegraph Bill, which comes into operation on 1st December, gives the Postmaster-General sole power to transmit messages, and that without his consent there can be no competition with the Commonwealth department. 1904. 1904 12. Punch magazine publishes a graphic joke with thrust the general public don't care about the forthcoming Wireless Telegraphy Act PERFECTLY SATISFIED. TOM.— "What do they call this 'ere wireless telegraphy, Bill?" BILL.— "If the publican beckons us over for a drink, that's it." 1905. 1905 07. First reference to the new Wireless Telegraphy Bill in the Senate . . . Senator PLAYFORD - It is a question for a lawyer, and I shall get a lawyer's opinion on the subject before I deal with it. The statement proceeds:- Several Bills considered in part last session will be revived by resolution, and, where necessary new amendments will be added. Among other matters engaging the serious attention of Ministers, and upon which it is intended at a later date to make proposals of an important character, that of Defence (29) . is specially deserving of reconsideration, particularly in view of recent developments. Short Bills relating to the Law of Evidence (30); Audit Act Amendment (31); Wireless Telegraphy (32); Census and Statistics (33); Weights and Measures (34); Designs (35); and Property Acquisition (36) will be placed before you. This list of subjects may be divided into two parts. The first is made up of minor Bills, aiming at useful but independent additions to the ordinary machinery of Government. The other consists of major Bills, embodying a progressive policy of development of the resources of the Commonwealth, intended to be carried out by systematic effort here and in the Mother Country, and, if necessary, in the sister dominions of the Empire. It may not be possible to complete this programme, though with the help of Parliament a great advance can be made before the next recess. The policy as a whole can be pushed far onward if we are able to follow a business-like session this year with a longer session next year, devoted to questions of the first magnitude, approached steadily and consistently from the practical side. At all events, so far as Ministers are concerned, this Parliament will be afforded, as it has itself demanded, another opportunity of fulfilling the purposes for which it was elected, and justifying the confidence of those who look to us to foster the national interests of Australia. . . . Senator PLAYFORD - I can only repeat that I shall do all I can to get as much work as possible before the Senate. I hope I shall succeed ; but I am a little doubtful, as the House of Representatives has charge of the Estimates, and will have some Bills which are of a highly contentious character to deal with. Before those Bills are submitted to the Senate, it may be necessary for me to ask for an adjournment for a fortnight or so. The present position is that the Government have given notice of their intention to proceed in the Senate with the consideration of the very debatable Bill introduced last session relating to the survey of the proposed railway line between Kalgoorlie and Port Augusta, and that the are also ready to give notice of their intention to introduce Bills relating to copy right, wireless telegraphy, and other matters. These are not of supreme importance, nor are they of a very contentious character, but they will, at all events, provide work. Looking round the Senate, I must say that - I anticipate that honorable senators will also bring forward a considerable amount of private members' business. . . . WT Bill presented and read a first time in the Senate WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY BILL Motion (by Senator Keating) agreed to - That leave be given to introduce a Bill for an Act relating to Wireless Telegraphy. Bill presented and read a first time. 1905 08 02. Senator KEATING (Tasmania—Honorary Minister) (NaN.NaN pm). - I move - That the Bill be now read a second time. So far as length is concerned, the measure is a very small one. Its main object is to make a Government monopoly of wireless telegraphy in the Commonwealth. The provisions of the Post and Telegraph Act of 1901 make telegraphy, as then understood, the sole business of the Postmaster-General. In section 80 of the Act, it is set forth that The Postmaster-General shall have the exclusive privilege of erecting and maintaining telegraph lines and of transmitting telegrams or other communications by telegraph within the Commonwealth, and performing all the incidental services of receiving, collecting, or delivering such telegrams or communications, except as provided by this Act or the regulations. It might be argued, on the construction of those words, and in view of the developments which have taken place in connexion with the science or art of telegraphy, that wireless telegraphy would also be included within the purview of the section. But later on in the section we find this proviso: - Provided also that nothing in this section shall be taken to prevent any person from maintaining and using any telegraph line heretofore erected by him or from erecting, maintaining, and using any telegraph line - [a) which is wholly within and upon land whereof he is the proprietor or occupier, and solely for his own purposes, &c. Even where there is an actual physical connexion by means of a wire, so long as the wire and all the appliances and instruments in connexion therewith are upon private property, a private individual can use the ordinary telegraph, notwithstanding the provision that is made for giving the Postmaster-General exclusive rights in respect to telegraphs. The appliances and apparatus which are used for the practice of wireless telegraphy do not necessitate the use of any connexion wires at all, but are simply terminal apparatus, which may be used and may be confined at either end absolutely to any person's land. I do not say that that proviso would put out of the enacting part of the section a system of wireless telegraphy. But, as it stands, it is sufficient to throw some doubt on the question as to whether a system of wireless telegraphy does come properly within the section, because it is perfectly understandable that all the appliances which would be required for a transmitting station could be comprised within the private property of an individual, and that all the appliances and apparatus which would be required for a receiving station could also be comprised within the boundaries of the private property of that, or some other individual, and communication could be established without the aid of wires at all by the new system. It is quite possible that in that way it might be argued, and argued successfully, that the Act, as framed in 1901, had not in contemplation such a system of communication as wireless telegraphy. Under these circumstances, it is deemed desirable to set at rest any such doubt as that. That is the object of the Bill. It is set forth in clause 4, that the Postmaster-General shall have the exclusive privilege of transmitting messages by wireless telegraphy in Australia, of transmitting them to any place or ship outside Australia, and of receiving them from any place or ship outside Australia. Of course, it might be argued that it is not desirable that he should have that power. Where legislation has been submitted, as in the case of Great Britain, provision has been made to protect persons who are working apparatus for the purpose of carrying out a. system of wireless telegraphy for scientific or experimental purposes, and to enable them to do so. But in order to get over any such difficulty as that, provision is made in this Bill that the Postmaster-General may by licence enable persons to carry out any such system, either for that Or any other purpose he may think desirable. Appropriate penalties are provided in the case of any person who contravenes the Act, by attempting to establish, erect, maintain, or use any station, to transmit or to receive messages by means of this method. Senator Guthrie (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - Would it apply to semaphore or other signals? Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - I think not, from the following definition in clause 2 : - " Wireless telegraphy" includes all systems of transmitting and receiving telegraph messages by means of electricity, without a continuous metallic connexion between the transmitter and the receiver. The definition in the English measure goes a little further than that, and it is thought that by limiting its application to messages transmitted by electricity, anybody who chooses to carry out a system of telegraphy by means of semaphores will not commit a breach of the provisions of the Act. Then, of course, there is provision made for the case of ships which come into the ports of the Commonwealth, fitted with appliances and apparatus for wireless telegraphy. As honorable senators know, these appliances and apparatus are to be found fairly frequently now on many of the large ships. Therefore, provision is made that, so long as the ships are in the ports of the Commonwealth, the appliances and apparatus shall be subject to the control of the Postmaster-General. They may (be used, of course, by the owners or by those in control of the vessels, but subject to such regulations as may be framed for such purpose. Senator Guthrie (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - And to such charges ? Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - That will be a matter of regulation. At present the Bill simply provides that these instruments shall be subject to the control of the Postmaster-General, and shall only be used by his authority or as authorized by the regulations. I have no doubt that if it is deemed desirable that charges should be made for the use of them, the regulations will provide for proper and fair charges to be made. Provision is also made for the forfeiture of any such apparatus or instrument which may be used by any person contrary to the provisions of the Act, And in cases where it is suspected that appliances are toeing used in contravention of the Act, proper provision is made to enable the necessary search warrants to be issued, authorizing persons to make searches, and to take possession of such instruments. Senator de Largie (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - Have any private persons been working this system in Australia? Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - Not that I know of, unless it has been done as a matter of experiment. During the last few years the successive Governments of the Commonwealth have had brought under their notice several different systems, including, amongst others, the following: - Marconi, Professor Slaby's, Slaby-Arco, Lodge-Muirhead, T. E. Clark, Heincke, De Forest, Telefunken, and Shoemaker. It is eminently desirable that if there is any system' of wireless telegraphy established in Australia for the transmission, on behalf of the public, of messages, we should have a system that would be, as far as possible, similar to whatever system may be adopted by the United Kingdom and its warships, so that communications which would pass between them and the United Kingdom when at sea, or between them and Australia or other British Possessions, would be as far as possible in accordance with one particular system. Representations to that effect have passed between the Governments of the Commonwealth and the Home Government, and it is thought desirable that neither party should yet adopt any particular system or grant concessions, rights, or privileges to any particular syndicate, or to any promoters, to carry out a system in Australia or elsewhere which would make it difficult for the Governments afterwards to have a system on a proper and uniform basis as far as possible throughout the Empire. I think I have now indicated most of the main provisions of the Bill which, though it may seem very small, is an important one, and one which I think should be passed into law as early as possible. The ninth, or concluding clause, enables the GovernorGeneral to make such regulations as may be necessary from time to time for giving effect to the principles of the Act. In conclusion, I might mention, as I have already indicated, that many ships - more particularly the ships of war of the different nations - are fitted up with wireless telegraphy transmitters and receivers. Provision is therefore made in clause 3 that - This Act shall not apply to ships belonging to the King's Navy. As honorable senators will see, it would be desirable and advisable that so long as the ships of the King's Navy are in the ports of the Commonwealth, they should not be prevented from carrying on wireless telegraphy between themselves or with elsewhere, as they are frequently doing, for experimental purposes, I understand. Senator Mulcahy (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - What about foreign warships ? Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - Foreign warships will come within sub-clause 2 of clause 6. Their instruments and appliances will be subject to the control of the Postmaster - General, and usable subject to regulations which will be framed. Senator Guthrie (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - What about colonial warships ? Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - They are part of the King's Navy. Senator Guthrie (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - No. Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - If the honorable senator wishes to make certain of that, probably he will suggest the addition of a few words to provide that the vessels of the Commonwealth Navy shall not come within the provisions of the measure. Senator Mulcahy (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - Does the Minister think that foreign nations would permit the Postmaster-General to send on board officers to take charge of their instruments? Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - I do not suppose that any of our officers would take charge of the instruments. That would be a matter for arrangement, in accordance with international comity. The like provisions will apply to foreign warships visiting our ports as apply to British warships visiting foreign ports. No express provision has been made in the Bill in that regard, but should they not come within subclause 2 of clause 6 I have not the slightest doubt that, under some proper and effective regulations, the control of their wireless telegraphy will be on all fours with the control which they themselves exercise in their own ports in respect of visiting warships. Senator de Largie (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - Can the Minister tell us whether any experiments have been carried out by the electrical branch of the Post and Telegraph Department, or any of its officers? Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - I am not in a position to say that there have been any experiments carried out. The electricians of that Department have been called upon to report upon certain systems which have been taken into consideration by the Government, but whether, in order to bring up their report, they have conducted any experiments or not I do not know. Senator Drake (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - They have been experimenting for a long time. Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - Perhaps they have been experimenting in Queensland; at short distances. Senator Drake (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - In other States as well. Debate (on motion by Senator Pulsford) adjourned. 1905 08 04. Procedural Text relating to the second reading of the Wireless Telegraphy Bill Second Reading. Debate resumed from 2nd August (vide page 466), on motion by Senator Keating - That the Bill be now read a second time. Speech by Senator Pulsford, following second reading of Wireless Telegraphy Bill, in its support & suggesting amendments Senator PULSFORD (New South Wales—) (NaN.NaN pm) - This is a necessary Bill. The growth of wireless telegraphy is already very considerable, and promises to be much greater. It is desirable, therefore, that the Post and Telegraph Department should be prepared to deal with it. I observe that, according to the English Act, in the old country it is considered a matter not only for the Post and Telegraph Department but also for the Defence Department, in which certain powers are vested. I think it is desirable to make some amendments in the Bill in that direction. Clause 3 reads - This Act shall not apply to ships belonging to the King's Navy. I suggest that the clause might be amended so as to provide that the Act shall not apply to "the Naval and Military Forces." In clause 4 I think it is desirable to insert the following proviso, which is taken from the English Act:- Provided that nothing in this Act shall prevent any person from making or using electrical apparatus for actuating machinery, or for any purpose other than the transmission of messages. That seems a very simple and necessary provision. In sub-clause 1 of clause 6 there is provided an immense penalty - £500 - which is repeated in the next subclause. The English Act fixes the penalty at £100, and also provides an additional penalty of imprisonment, which may be inflicted with a fine. I shall propose, therefore, that we reduce the penalty from £500 to £200, and add these words - " With or without hard labour, for a term not exceeding twelve months." Clause 8, as it stands does not seem to be quite sufficient. The search warrant may be granted to any person. I shall propose that the clause be brought into line with the provision in the English Act by substituting these words - A search warrant may be granted to any police officer, . or any officer appointed on their behalf by the Postmaster-General or the Minister for Defence, and named in the warrant. I shall also propose that the following new clause be inserted:- "No proceedings shall be taken against any person under this Act except by order of the Postmaster-General or the Minister for Defence." The amendments are of the simplest character. They conflict in no way with the principle of the measure, but assist in carrying it out and safeguarding the work of the Departments. They also give some power to the Minister of Defence as well as to the Postmaster-General. Under the English Act power is possessed by the Postmaster-General, the Admiralty, the Army Council, and the Board of Trade. In our measure I imagine that it will be sufficient to name the Postmaster-General and the Minister of Defence. Question resolved in the affirmative. Bill read a second time. In Committee: Clause 1 agreed to. Clause 2 - In this Act, " Australia " includes the territorial waters of the Commonwealth. Speech by Senator Pearce, following second reading of Wireless Telegraphy Bill, in its support & suggesting amendments Senator PEARCE (Western Australia—) (NaN.NaN pm) - It is doubtful whether Papua is included in the definition, therefore I move - That after the word " Commonwealth," line 2, the words and the territory of Papua "be inserted. The Acts Interpretation Act defines "Australia" as including the whole Commonwealth; and the Constitution defines "Commonwealth" as meaning "The Commonwealth of Australia as established under this Act." The Commonwealth consists of six States exclusive of the territory of Papua; and the same dangers that would arise out of any abuse of this power in the States would arise in the case of Papua. Senator McGregor has suggested to me that an even wider term might be inserted, by saying, "and any territory whatever." I have not had much time to give consideration to the point, but I think it would be wise to include all our existing territory. Senator KEATING (Tasmania—Honorary Minister) (NaN.NaN pm) . - I think the honorable senator's suggestion is a worthy one, which should be accepted. The Bill, of course, only provides for a system of wireless telegraphy in Australia. The exclusive use of wireless telegraphy within the Commonwealth is to be under the control of the Postmaster-General. The same reason that would apply to the six States applies with equal force to the territory of Papua. Therefore, I shall accept the amendment. Senator MILLEN (New South Wales). Senator Pearce indicated a suggestion which came from Senator McGregor, and which seems to be better than that contained in the amendment. It is true that, to-day, the Commonwealth is only vested with the control of one piece of outside territory; but one can hardly say what the coming years may bring forth. There are infinite possibilities of greater responsibilities being placed upon the Commonwealth, and we should provide for them. Senator McGregor has suggested the insertion of the words "and any territory thereof." That would cover not only the immediate necessities with regard to Papua, but also any other territory that might pass under the control of the Commonwealth. It is, for instance, quite conceivable that one or two islands, which are at present directly under the administration of New South Wales, might at some time pass under the control of the Commonwealth. I might mention Lord Howe Island, as an example. Certainly, the insertion of the word Papua would not cover that case, whereas I should think the term "territory of the Commonwealth" would do so. I, therefore, suggest the advisableness of accepting Senator McGregor's suggestion. Senator PEARCE(Western Australia). - I ask leave to withdraw my amendment with a view to substitute the words "and any territory of the Commonwealth." Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. Amendment (by Senator Pearce) proposed - That after the word "Commonwealth" the words " and any territory of the Commonwealth " be inserted. Senator KEATING (—) (NaN.NaN pm) - I agree that it would be desirable not to restrict ourselves to present conditions, but to provide in the Bill for apy possible future extension of the Commonwealth by acquisition of new territory. The only point that occurs to me is in reference to the exact words to be used. Section 122 of the Constitution provides that - "The Parliament may make laws for the government of any territory, surrendered by any State to and accepted by the Commonwealth, or of any territory placed by the Queen under the authority of and accepted by the Commonwealth." I think that the words proposed by Senator Pearce will meet all the possible cases, and therefore I have no objection to the amendment. Amendment agreed to. Clause, as amended, agreed to. Clause 3 - . This Act shall not apply to ships belonging to the King's Navy Senator Pulsford moves an amendment to the Wireless Telegraphy Bill relating to exemption for naval forces Senator PULSFORD (New South Wales—) (NaN.NaN pm) - I move - That the words " ships belonging to the King's Navy " be left out with a view to insert in lieu thereof the words," the Naval and Military Forces." I am not sure that a clause of this nature is necessary. There is nothing of the sort in the English Act. But, if it is thought to be necessary, it should be made to include anything done by the Military and Naval Forces, which embrace the Naval Squadron of His Majesty. 1905 09. Opinion piece by journalist of "The Age" expresses view that Australian wireless telegraphy should be opened up for competition AUSTRALIAN WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY. WILL THERE BE A MONOPOLY? Within the next few weeks the Governor-General will have given his assent to the Wireless Telegraphy Bill, and it will be illegal to install and work wireless telegraphy apparatus without a licence issued by the Postmaster-General. It is therefore desirable, in the public interest, that attention should be directed without delay to the danger that exists that one or other of the competing companies working wireless systems may secure a monopoly. That there is such a danger no one can doubt from the way in which the Postal department is waiting for the opinion of the British Admiralty before dealing with the competing offers now before it. The idea appears to be that whatever system the Admiralty adopts the Postmaster-General should also adopt, to the exclusion from Australian coasts of all others. What is desirable is the very freest competition amongst the rival systems, within certain limits, which will fix zones for each company, and clearly indicate how far the existing telegraphs or cable routes may be invaded. Some guidance in the matter is given by a return that has been issued by the British Postmaster-General, revealing the operations of his officers in connection with the first year's working of the British Wireless Telegraphy Act. This act is a temporary measure, and expires at the end of 1906. Under it 73 applications for licences have been received, only three of which were in regard to the Marconi apparatus. Forty-eight of the applications were granted; four were referred back for amendment; one has been refused because it proposed wireless "exchanges," which interfered with the ordinary telegraph monopoly; and the remainder are still under consideration. The licences appear to have been issued so as to promote experimental work and to foster private enterprise and invention. No one company has been favored. The Marconi Co., and Lloyd's, in London, are still, as yet, the only bodies at present accepting wireless telegrams from the public; but other systems have been licensed, and are in operation for business purposes. For example, the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway Company is using the system of a Frenchman named Rochefort for communication with the Dieppe Newhaven packets, and with a wireless station belonging to a French railway company at Dieppe. The Midland Railway Co. intends to use the Lodge-Muirhead system in connection with the Heysham-Belfast steamers. This railway company has a licence, too, for experimenting with the same system in relation to trains in motion — a use of wireless telegraphy successfully developed in the United States and Germany. Then the Marconi Company has obtained permission to establish a long distance station on the west coast of Ireland for "commercial communication" with America. The Lodge-Muirhead Company is asking for stations on the Isle of Wight, the Lizard, at Dover, and at the Fastnet. The De Forrest Company has secured several stations on the east coast. The policy pursued by the British Parliament is to encourage competition amongst these companies in the hope of cheapening what is at present only "a rich man's service," and Australia cannot do better than follow suit.

Supplementary mathematics/Graph Theory. Graph theory or topology graph theory is a branch of mathematics and a field of discrete mathematics. Graph theory refers to networks of points that are connected and ordered and connected by lines. Graph applications in chemistry for formulation and form Classification of molecules and atoms, research and investigation in operations for tracking and clues in a research and computer science study have been used a lot to encode and determine the graph, and the graph has become a significant field in mathematics and discrete mathematics. The history of graph theory goes back to 1735 in a special, principled and official way, which was discovered by a Swiss mathematician named Leonard Euler. It was a mathematical puzzle to find a path on each of the seven bridges that cross a forked river and pass by an island. Euler created an argument by drawing graph lines that there is no path at all. Proof This theorem was in the form of Fyric arrangement in bridges, but basically he proved the first theorem in graph theory. The term graph means that the lines are connected to each other and have a graph scope, but it does not refer to data graphs such as linear, bar, circle. In general, graphs can be divided into two categories: graphs and Divided data. A graph refers to a set of vertices (points or nodes that are connected) and lines (lines that are connected).

What You Should Know About Medicines/Liquid Solution. Liquid solutions are one of the common forms of medications used to administer drugs to patients. They are widely used for various purposes, including oral ingestion, topical application, and intravenous (IV) administration. Here are some essential points you should know about medicines in liquid solution form: Definition:. A liquid solution is a homogeneous mixture of one or more drugs dissolved in a liquid solvent. The drug is dispersed uniformly throughout the liquid, ensuring an even distribution of the active ingredient. Types of Liquid Solution. Oral Solutions:. These are meant to be taken by mouth and are usually flavored to improve taste and patient compliance. Topical Solutions:. Applied directly to the skin or mucous membranes, often used for local treatment of skin conditions or for eye and ear infections. Intravenous (IV) Solutions:. Administered directly into the bloodstream, providing rapid drug delivery and immediate effects. Dosage Accuracy:. Liquid solutions offer precise dosing options, which can be especially crucial for medications with narrow therapeutic windows, where small variations in dose can significantly impact effectiveness or cause adverse effects. Onset of Action:. Depending on the route of administration, liquid solutions can have varying onset times. For instance, IV solutions provide rapid action since the drug is directly infused into the bloodstream. Storage:. Proper storage is vital for maintaining the stability and effectiveness of liquid medications. Some solutions may require refrigeration, while others can be stored at room temperature. Always follow the storage instructions provided by the pharmacist or on the medication label. Shake Well Before Use:. Some liquid medications may separate into layers when sitting idle. To ensure uniformity in dosing, always shake the bottle well before using the medication. Measuring Devices:. Liquid solutions are usually dispensed with a specific measuring device like a calibrated dropper, syringe, or measuring cup. It's essential to use the provided measuring device to ensure accurate dosing. Patient Specifics:. When prescribing or administering liquid medications, it's crucial to consider factors such as the patient's age, weight, medical history, and any allergies they might have. Dosages can differ based on these factors. Special Considerations:.    - For pediatric patients, liquid medications are often preferred because they can be easier to swallow.    - In some cases, liquid formulations may be used when a particular drug is not available in solid form or when patients have difficulty swallowing pills.    - Certain liquid medications contain alcohol or sugar, so patients with specific health conditions should be cautious and consult their healthcare provider if needed.
