Both exceed 100% because their CO2 values were increased to 345 ppmv, without changing their other constituents to compensate. This is made worse by the April 2019 CO2 value, which is 413.32 ppmv.[3] Although minor, the January 2019 value for CH4 is 1866.1 ppbv (parts per billion).[4] Two older reliable sources have dry atmospheric compositions, including trace molecules, that total less than 100%: U.S. Standard Atmosphere, 1976[5] (99.9997147%); and Astrophysical Quantities[6]

Autoignition point of selected substances

[edit]

Temperatures vary widely in the literature and should only be used as estimates. Factors that may cause variation include partial pressure of oxygen, altitude, humidity, and amount of time required for ignition. Generally the autoignition temperature for hydrocarbon/air mixtures decreases with increasing molecular mass and increasing chain length. The autoignition temperature is also higher for branched-chain hydrocarbons than for straight-chain hydrocarbons.[9]

test

[edit]

At the beginning of the 21st century, in 2016, a Michelson interferometer made the first detection of gravitational waves. [23][24] The observation confirms the last remaining unproven prediction of general relativity and validates its predictions of space-time distortion in the context of large scale cosmic events (known as strong field tests).[25] “The consequences of this detection are difficult to overstate…”.[26]

Scott Kelly

[edit]

Scott Joseph Kelly (born February 21, 1964) is an American astronaut, engineer and a retired U.S. Navy Captain. A veteran of four space flights, Kelly commanded the International Space Station (ISS) on Expeditions 26, 44, and 45.

Kelly's first spaceflight was as pilot of Space Shuttle Discovery during STS-103 in December 1999. This was the third servicing mission to the Hubble Space Telescope, and lasted for just under eight days.

Kelly's second spaceflight was as mission commander of STS-118, a 12-day Space Shuttle mission to the International Space Station in August 2007.

Kelly's third spacflight was as commander of Expedition 26 on the ISS. He arrived 9 October 2010, on a Russian Soyuz spacecraft,[27] during Expedition 25, and served as a flight engineer until it ended.[28] He took over command of the station on 25 November 2010, at the start of Expedition 26 which began officially when the spacecraft Soyuz TMA-19 undocked, carrying the previous commander of the station, Douglas H. Wheelock.[29] Expedition 26 ended on 16 March 2011 with the departure of Soyuz TMA-01M. This was Kelly's first long-duration spaceflight.

In November 2012, Kelly was selected, along with Mikhail Korniyenko, for a special year-long mission to the International Space Station.[30][31][32] Their year is space commenced 27 March 2015 with the start of Expedition 43, continued through the entirety of Expeditions 44, and 45, both of which Kelly commanded. He passed command to Timothy Kopra[33] on 29 February 2016, when the ISS year long mission ended. He returned to Earth aboard Soyuz TMA-18M on 1 March 2016.

In October 2015, he set the record for the total accumulated number of days spent in space by an American astronaut, 382. For the ISS year long mission, Kelly spent 340 consecutive days in space.[34]

Kelly's identical twin brother, Mark Kelly, is a former astronaut. The Kelly brothers are the only siblings to have traveled in space.[30][35]

Flint water

[edit]
Protected geographical indication

In late April 2014, in an effort to save about $5 million over less than two years,[44][45][46] Flint EM Darnell Earley switched Flint from purchasing treated Lake Huron water from Detroit, as it had done for 50 years, to treating water from the Flint River. The plan was to attach to the Karegnondi system, which was under construction, and would be completed almost three years later. The Flint river had been the designated backup water source for years.[47][48][49]

By December 2014, the city had invested $4 million into its water plant.[50]

[edit]

[64]

I believe the assertion, "is really only true of people brought up in the Americas (and perhaps only the USA)", to be demonstrably incorrect, because:
* The Oxford English dictionary gives "the Americas" definition first, indicating it is the older, that it is still in common use, and that it is used in the United Kingdom;
* The Chambers Dictionary, published in England in 2011, says "This dictionary was written with the British speaker of English in mind" and claims to be the most popular dictionary in England. Chambers gives only "the Americas" definition and mentions not a word about the geographical meaning current here;
* I explicitly and clearly stated that I searched two, respected, nationally circulated, English newspapers, The Guardian & The Times, and found only "the Americas" meaning for their use of "Western Hemisphere";
* I explicitly and clearly stated that I searched an Australian newspaper and found only "the Americas" meaning for their use of "Western Hemisphere";
* It makes the false assumption that the variety of English spoken in the United States is inferior to that variety of English spoken elsewhere. Wikipedia explicitly prohibits this.
Altogether I researched five, non-Americas and non-USA, sources. I found, in four, only the meaning "the Americas". The fifth contained both meanings.
But even if the assertion were true, 71% of English native speakers reside in the United States, easily making their version the most common in the world. It is a bad idea to withhold the most common meaning (by far) from the rest of the world. The non-native speakers who come to Wikipedia to learn the meaning of something they have read elsewhere should learn how 71% of English speakers use the phrase.

Western Hemisphere Article

[edit]
For the geopolitical term, see Western world.
The Western hemisphere.

The Western Hemisphere is a geopolitical term term for "the hemisphere of the world containing the Americas."[65][66][67] The Western Hemisphere is the half of the world that includes North America and South America[68][69][70][71] The Western Hemisphere consists of the Americas, adjacent islands, and surrounding waters. Longitude 160° E to longitude 20° W are considered the boundaries of the Western Hemisphere.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page). In 1569, Mercator published his first world map using the Mercator Projection. It too places the prime meridian through the Azores. Mercator's atlas was published in full, by his son Rumold in 1595. This atlas was in print continously, until at least 1641, and consistantly placed the prime meridian in the Azores.[72]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:JodocusHondius-ChristianKnightMap-1597.jpg

Throughout the 16th and 17th centuries, maps and atlases placed the prime meridian through the Azores.[73]

Countries in Western Hemisphere

[edit]

Below is a list of the countries which are in the Western Hemisphere, in order from north to south:

Geography and cartography

[edit]

In the fields of navigation, geography, and cartography the Western Hemisphere is the half of the world that lies west of the prime meridian (0° longitude) and east of 180° longitude.[75] Until October 1884, when the prime meridian was standardized[76] there were dozens of prime meridians used by navigators and cartographers.

The formation of the peptide bond consumes energy, which, in living systems, is derived from ATP.[6] Polypeptides and proteins are chains of amino acids held together by peptide bonds. Living organisms employ enzymes to produce polypeptides, and ribosomes to produce proteins. Peptides are synthesized by specific enzymes. For example, the tripeptide glutathione is synthesized in two steps from free amino acids, by two enzymes: gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase.[7][8]

Footnotes within footnotes

[edit]

Remote footnotes can contain other remote footnotes, or include ref-tag footnotes. Also, any ref-tag footnote ("<ref>...</ref>") can contain a remote-footnote link, circumventing the 10-year problem where a ref-tag footnote cannot contain another ref-tag footnote.

An example (of footnotes within footnotes) would be:

The term "time dilation"[p] refers to a slowing of elapsed duration.
Notes
   [p] – The word dilation is pronounced "dy-LAY-shun" [a] and is the preferred term.[b]
   [a] – Merriam-Webster Dictionary lists "dilation" with pronunciation: \dī-'lā-shən\.[c]
   [b] – The term "time dilation" has been used since 1934 but is sometimes called "time dilatation".[d]
   [c] – Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, 2009, webpage: MW-dilation.
   [d] – Merriam-Webster Online Dict., 2009, webpage: MW-time+dilation.

Nested footnotes can be used to address several common issues that would tend to clutter the top-text of an article:

  • Dates differ: some sources give one date while others give another date, and a remote footnote could explain the reasons.
  • The fact is not so simple: September 11th is the 12th in some specific later time zone, and could be noted.
  • Opinions differ: perhaps explain how the Hatfields and McCoys stated different views of events.
  • A pronunciation differs with local residents or slang, such as NOLA as "Nawlins" or "New Orluns" or "New Orleens" (etc.), so a foonote could list them, plus link further footnote sources for each.

There is no limit to the nesting of remote footnotes within other footnotes.

Sears & Frandor

[edit]

Sears opened a store on property just to the south of Frandor the year before[29] Frandor opened. Although not a part of Frandor, shoppers would not be aware of that, so this Sears has acted as an anchor store for Frandor throughout its existance.

TV Camera Tube

[edit]
vidicon tube (2/3 inch in diameter)

The video camera tube was a type of cathode ray tube used to capture the television image prior to the introduction of charge-coupled devices in the mid to late 1980s. Several types were in use from the 1930s to the 1980s.

In these tubes, the cathode ray was scanned across a target which was illuminated by the scene to be broadcast. The resultant current was dependent on the brightness of the image on the target. The In older video cameras, before the mid to late 1980s, a video camera tube or pickup tube was used instead of a charge-coupled device (CCD) for converting an optical image into an electrical signal. Several types were in use from the 1930s to the 1980s. The most commercially successful of these tubes were various types of cathode ray tubes or "CRTs".

Any vacuum tube which operates using a focused beam of electrons ("cathode rays") is known as a cathode ray tube. However, in the popular lexicon "CRT" usually refers to the "picture tube" in a television or computer monitor. The proper term for this type of display tube is kinescope, only one of many types of cathode ray tubes. Others include the tubes used in oscilloscopes, radar displays, and the camera pickup tubes described in this article.[30] (The word "kinescope" has also become the popular name for a film recording made by focusing a motion picture camera onto the face of a kinescope cathode ray tube, a common practice before the advent of video tape recording.[31])

Video camera tubes typically had a certain maximum brightness tolerance. If that limit were exceeded, such as by pointing the camera at the sun, sun-reflecting shiny surfaces, like chrome car bumpers, or extremely bright point light sources, the tube detecting surface would instantly "burn out" and be rendered insensitive on part or all of the screen. A slight burn might fade away over a matter of weeks, but for a severe burn the only remedy was replacing the video tube.[32]

Linkage Disequilibrium

[edit]

In population genetics, linkage disequilibrium is a combination of alleles (DNA sequences) at various locations (loci) in a genome (usually on one chromosome) that are inherited together more (or less) often than expected from the frequency of the alleles in the population. (see Example )

A linkage disequilibrium may be one locus, several loci, an entire chromosome, or the genome depending on the number of recombination events that have occurred between a given set of loci. In other words, linkage disequilibrium is the occurrence of some combinations of alleles or genetic markers in a population more often or less often than would be expected from a random formation of haplotypes from alleles based on their frequencies. It is indicative of a recent mutation, because there has not been time for recombination to separate the mutation from the particular alleles carried by its founder individual. [35]

Since linkage disequilibrium is the non-random association of alleles at two or more loci, that may or may not be on the same chromosome, it would be more appropriate to term it allelic association.[35] It is also referred to as gametic phase disequilibrium,[36] or simply gametic disequilibrium.

It is a second order phenomenon derived from linkage, which is the presence of two or more loci on a chromosome with limited recombination between them. The amount of linkage disequilibrium depends on the difference between observed allelic frequencies and those expected from a homogenous, randomly distributed model. Populations where combinations of alleles or genotypes can be found in the expected proportions are said to be in linkage equilibrium.

The level of linkage disequilibrium is influenced by a number of factors, including genetic linkage, selection, the rate of recombination, the rate of mutation, genetic drift, non-random mating, and population structure. A limiting example of the effect of rate of recombination may be seen in some organisms (such as bacteria) that reproduce asexually and hence exhibit no recombination to break down the linkage disequilibrium. An example of the effect of population structure is the phenomenon of Finnish disease heritage, which is attributed to a population bottleneck.

Example

[edit]

Along the linear DNA molecule one gene follows another. These genes are said to be linked since they follow each other on the same DNA molecule, and are inherited as a group. For every gene there are several varieties. For example suppose hair color (red, brown, blond, black), eye color (hazel, green, blue, brown), heart attack rate (high, normal, low), hair curliness (straight, wavy, curly) appear one after the other. The most common pattern of the 144 possible patterns of these four genes would be black, brown, normal, and straight. Suppose a mutation occurs in a Swede in the heart attack rate gene. Now there is in the world one copy of DNA with blond, blue, ultra-low (the new mutation), and wavy. This is a linkage disequilibrium. This linkage disequilibrium would propagate because the ultra-low heart attack rate would allow the people carrying it to live longer which gives them time to have more children.

Over a long time recombination which shuffles gene varieties, but not their order, will produce all possible combinations of these four genes. The most common pattern then would be black, brown, ultra-low, and straight, and the linkage disequilibrium would have disappeared.

When a mutation occurs it occurs on one DNA molecule in one individual. Thus it has only one set of neighboring

Illuminations

[edit]

The manuscript has decorated initials. They are large, and appear alternately in read or blue with pen ornament of the other color. Large decorated initials, alternately red or blue with pen ornament of the other colour. The large initials are twenty percent into the margins. The text is indented around the large initials. At the beginning of each Gospel, the large initial is green.[34]


Missing text

[edit]

The manuscript is massing Luke 16.12 through 17.1.

History

[edit]

Origin

[edit]

The manuscript was probably produced at Canterbury. It contains palaeographic evidence of such an origin.<

Provenance

[edit]

The first sure knowledge of the manuscript is the signature of John Parker (d. 1618), on the verso of folio i. Parker was the son of Archbishop Mathew Parker. Next there is a signature of Christopher, Baron Hatton(d. 1670), on the recto of folio ii. John Hatton bought the manuscript from the estate of

Later medieval history is unknown. The manuscript belonged to John Parker (1548-1618), son of Archbishop Mathew Parker (his signature may be seen on the verso of fol. i) and Christopher, Baron Hatton( 1605?-1670), whose signature is on the recto of fol. ii; used by Francis Junius (1589-1677) for his 1665 edition of the Gospel. The Oxford BOdleian Lirbary acquired it with other Hatton manuscripts in 1671.

Plesiomorphy

[edit]

Features shared more widely than in a group of interest. These are primitive for the group in question and cannot provide evidence for the group.

An evolutionary trait that is homologous within a particular group of organisms but is not unique to members of that group (compare apomorphy) and therefore cannot be used as a diagnostic or defining character for the group. For example, vertebrae are found in zebras, cheetahs, and orang-utans, but the common ancestor in which this trait first evolved is so distant that the trait is shared by many other animals. Therefore, possession of vertebrae sheds no light on the phylogenetic relations of these three species.

A Dictionary of Biology, Oxford University Press, © Market House Books Ltd 2000

Symplesiomorphy

The possession of a character state that is primitive (plesiomorphic) and shared between two or more taxa. Shared possession of a symplesiomorph character state is not evidence that the taxa in question are related.

Article

[edit]

In cladistics, a symplesiomorphy or symplesiomorphic character is a trait which is shared (a symmorphy) between two or more taxa, but which is also shared with other taxa which have an earlier last common ancestor with the taxa under consideration. Symplesiomorphies are therefore not an indication that the taxa considered are more closely related to each other than to the more distant taxa, as all share the more primitive trait. A close phylogenetic relationship, that the taxa form a certain clade to the exclusion of certain other taxa, can only be shown by the discovery of synapomorphies which are shared traits that have originated with the last common ancestor of the taxa considered.

A plesiomorphy is

The concept of the symplesiomorphy shows the danger of grouping species together on the basis of general morphologic or genetic similarity, without distinguishing between resemblances caused by either primitive or derived traits. This phenetic method of analysis was common before cladistics became popular in the 1980s.

A famous example is pharyngeal gill breathing in bony and cartilaginous fishes. The former are more closely related to Tetrapoda (terrestrial vertebrates, which evolved out of a clade of bony fishes) that breathe via their skin or lungs, rather than to the sharks, rays, et al.. Their kind of gill respiration is shared by the "fishes" because it was present in their common ancestor and lost in the other living vertebrates.

[edit]

The sentence on the territorial size of Georgia, had the phrase "total area, a term which includes expanses of water claimed as state territory." This clearly implies that these water areas are not really part of the territory of Michigan, Wisconsin, or Florida. However this is incorrect.

The territory of Georgia includes that area under the water of West Point Lake, Hartwell Lake, Russell Lake, etc. all of which are bodies of water shared with neighboring states. If you commit murder on these waters you will be tried in the county and state in which the boat was located when the crime was committed.

Another example is Lake Tahoe which is shared by California and Nevada, with no one implying that the 133,000 sq. mi. of territory that is under the surface is "claimed" by California. It is part of the territory of California.

There is no doubt at all that the land under the surface of the Great Lakes is part of the territory of the various states. The exact boundaries of all states and their counties are completely established, and as well known as any land boundary. In fact there is an international boundary which Minnesota, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York have with Canada, which differs in no material way as that boundary which North Dakota has with Canada, even though for these five states the boundary is partly or entirely underwater.

Finally for every state article in Wikipedia, there is a standard-template right side-bar which includes in the "Area" box a list item titled "% water". For Georgia it is 2.6%. Is this just "claimed" territorial area or is it actual territorial area?

recombination mieosis shuffles the genes between the two chromosomes in each pair (one received from each parent), producing chromosomes with new genetic combinations in every gamete generated
mitosis does not shuffle the genes, porducing chromosomes pairs identical to those in the parent cell.
 
chromosome count mieosis produces four genetically unique cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as in the parent
mitosis produces the two genetically identical cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as in the parent

[edit]

Fourth Pillar You left this message on my "talk" page: "Your recent test edits to Clarence Darrow were not constructive. It was vandalism and was reverted. Entry of false information is not helpful. ... Further vandalism will get you blocked from editing without further notice."

The edit in question changed "A" to "On September 9, 2915, a". The actual year was 1925, but my fingers got it wrong and I mistyped it. As anyone can see the year I typed contains the correct digits but in the wrong order. Clearly this is a typo. Vandalism would have contained some other digits, e.g. 3746.

The fundamental principles by which Wikipedia operates can be summarized in five "pillars": the Fourth Pillar says in part "...assume good faith on the part of others." Your post to me violates this. Instead of assuming good faith, you leap directly to assuming bad faith on my part, and calling my clear typo "vandalism". Then you threaten me with being "blocked from editing without further notice."

I have been editing Wikipedia for over seven years, on a daily basis. I have made over 3,000 distinct edits. Not one of which has ever before been called vandalism by anyone. You need to put heavy effort into rethinking your quick attacks on fellow Wikipedians, and try hard to grasp what the Fourth Pillar means when it says, "...assume good faith on the part of others."

Subsequent Federal Coutr Decisions

[edit]

By February 14, 2014, there had been twelve "substantive" Federal District Court decisions bearing on the constitutionality of various state constitutional, and statutory, bans on gay marriage. In every case the court struck down the ban as unconstitutional.[1] Decisions were rendered in Illinois, New Jersey, Ohio, Virginia, Kentucky, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Utah, and West Virginia. In addition to marriage there have been six decisions which have addressed other aspects of government sponsored discrimination due to sexual orientation, for example, selection to serve on juries, or receive employment benefits. In all six cases the courst struck down the discriminatory acts.[1]

Test of Egg Introduction

[edit]

An ‘’’egg’’’ is the organic vessel containing the zygote, resulting from fertilization of the ovum, in which an animal embryo develops until it can survive on its own, at which point the animal hatches. Most arthropods, vertebrates, and mollusks lay eggs while a few retain the fertilized egg inside the female, e.g. scorpions and most mammals, and give birth to live young.

The 1.5 kg (3.3 lb) ostrich egg is the largest egg currently known, though the extinct Aepyornis and some dinosaurs had larger eggs. The Bee Hummingbird produces the smallest known bird egg, which weighs half of a gram. The eggs laid by some reptiles and most fish can be even smaller, and those of insects and other invertebrates can be much smaller still.

Oviparous animals are animals that lay eggs, with little or no other development within the mother.

The term "egg" is used differently outside the animal kingdom. Reproductive structures similar to the egg in other kingdoms are termed “spores,’ or in spermatophytes “seeds,” or in gametophytes “egg cell”.

The rest of this article is devoted to the discussion of amniote animal eggs.

Reptile eggs, bird eggs, and monotreme eggs, are laid out of water, and are surrounded by a protective shell, either flexible or inflexible. Eggs laid on land or in nests are usually kept within a favourable temperature range (warm) while the embryo grows. When the embryo is adequately developed it hatches, i.e. breaks out of the egg's shell. Baby animals which have just hatched are hatchlings, though standard names for babies of particular species continue to apply, such as chick for a baby chicken. Some embryos have a temporary egg tooth with which to crack, pip, or break the eggshell or covering.

The study or collecting of eggs, particularly bird eggs, is called oology.

Donatism

[edit]

Donatism (Latin: Donatismus, Greek: Δονατισμός Donatismos) was a Christian sect within the Roman province of Africa that flourished in the fourth and fifth centuries[2] among Berber Christians. The Donatists (named for the Berber Christian bishop Donatus Magnus) were members of a schismatic church not in communion with the churches of the rest of Early Christianity in Late Antiquity. Donatism arose out of the persecutions of Christians under Diocletian (303–5 AD). The governor of Africa had been lenient towards the large Christian minority under his rule during the Diocletian persecutions. He was satisfied when Christians handed over their Scriptures as a token repudiation of their faith. When the persecutions came to an end, however, these Christians were branded traditores, "those who handed (the holy things) over" by the Donatists, mostly from the poorer classes.[3] The Donatists refused to accept the legitimacy of the traditores, declaring that their actions were unforgivable, and sacraments, such as baptism, administered by them were invalid.
