title: "Equatoguinean Spanish" content: spoken in Equatorial Guinea and Caribbean Spanish does not hint at an influence of African languages in Caribbean Spanish, despite some earlier theories. Both varieties of Spanish are very different. The main influence on the Spanish spoken in Equatorial Guinea seems to be the varieties spoken by native Spanish colonizers. In a different paper, however, Lipski admits that the phonotactics of African languages might have reinforced, in Caribbean Spanish, the consonant reduction that was already taking place in Spanish from Southern Spain. Equatoguinean Spanish Equatoguinean Spanish () is the variety of Spanish spoken in Equatorial Guinea. This is the only


title: "Fermentation in winemaking" content: Fermentation in winemaking The process of fermentation in winemaking turns grape juice into an alcoholic beverage. During fermentation, yeasts transform sugars present in the juice into ethanol and carbon dioxide (as a by-product). In winemaking, the temperature and speed of fermentation are important considerations as well as the levels of oxygen present in the must at the start of the fermentation. The risk of stuck fermentation and the development of several wine faults can also occur during this stage, which can last anywhere from 5 to 14 days for "primary fermentation" and potentially another 5 to 10 days for a


title: "Fermentation in winemaking" content: chemical properties. The resulting wines are typically soft and fruity. Instead of yeast, bacteria play a fundamental role in malolactic fermentation which is essentially the conversion of malic acid into lactic acid. This has the benefit of reducing some of the tartness and making the resulting wine taste softer. Depending on the style of wine that the winemaker is trying to produce, malolactic fermentation may take place at the very same time as the yeast fermentation. Alternatively, some strains of yeast may be developed that can convert L-malate to L-lactate during alcohol fermentation. For example, "Saccharomyces cerevisiae" strain ML01 ("S.

title: "Academic grading in Russia" content: five-point scale. The 'Pass/No Pass' grades have no official numeric representation. When "zachòt"-type subjects are graded ‘Pass/No pass’ (sometimes translated as ‘Credit/No credit’), this simply represents a student's good/poor knowledge of a subject. "Zachòt"-type subjects are also called "non-exams" due to lack of numerical representations. Each university applies its own standards of the level of knowledge required to pass each course. Students in Russia typically must pass all courses taken in order to graduate. The various possible interpretations of the notation "zachòt" (usually translated "credit" or "pass"), can create problems for Russian students applying to Western universities.

Minimal bleeding is noted with the 1 mm punch, and often the wound is left to heal without stitching for the smaller punch biopsies. The disadvantage of the 1 mm punch is that the tissue obtained is almost

John Marriot maintained his London business from 1616 to 1657; his shop was at the sign of the "White Flower de Luce" in St. Dunstan's Churchyard in Fleet Street.

In 1618 Marriot became the publisher of the Royal College of Physicians, and published their "Pharmacopoeia" (1618, 1619) — though his relationship with the College would prove difficult and contentious. He published Barnabe Rich's "The Irish Hubbub, or the English Hue and Cry" in 1617, and John Murrell's "A New Book of Cookery" in 1631. Yet the elder Marriot is most strongly associated with the publication of poetry and literary prose.

Marriot also published works of Michael Drayton, Nicholas Breton, Francis Quarles, John Davies of Hereford, George Wither, and others, some of them figures now deeply obscure (like the "Poems" of Robert Gomersall, in 1633). John Marriot normally operated independently, though occasionally he joined in partnerships with other stationers to produce volumes that were unusually expensive or challenging. Partnered with colleague John Grismand, Marriot published the first edition of Lady Mary Wroth's controversial roman à clef "The Countess of Montgomery's Urania" in 1621.

In partnership with Henry Brome, Marriot published Charles Cotton's continuation of Walton's "Compleat Angler", sometimes called "Cotton's Angler", in 1676. Marriot also published books by Sir Henry Wotton, Sir Thomas Overbury, and others including Nathaniel Ingelo's "Bentivolio and Urania", 1660.

(Each of these involved inaccurate attributions, "The Spanish Gypsy" to Thomas Middleton and William Rowley, and "Revenge for Honour" to George Chapman.

title: "Zoom climb" content: Zoom climb A zoom climb is a climb where the rate of climb is greater than the maximum for a sustained climb, as determined from the thrust of the aircraft's engines. Before a zoom climb, the aircraft accelerates to a high air speed at an altitude at which it can operate in sustained level flight. The pilot then pulls steeply upward, trading the kinetic energy of forward motion for altitude. During these maneuvers the engine is in full thrust. The aircraft gains potential energy (altitude) at the expense of kinetic energy (forward motion). This is different from a steady climb,

In this usage, synonyms for "sponge" are "yeast starter" or "yeast pre-ferment". In French baking the "sponge and dough" method is known as "levain-levure". The method is reminiscent of the sourdough or "levain" methods; however, the sponge is made from all fresh ingredients prior to being used in the final dough.
