title: "Wine glass" content: Wine glass A wine glass is a type of glass that is used to drink and taste wine. The effect of glass shape on the taste of wine has not been demonstrated by any scientific study and remains a matter of debate. It is however believed by some that the shape of the glass is important, as it concentrates the flavour and aroma (or bouquet) to emphasize the varietal's characteristic. One common belief is that the shape of the glass directs the wine itself into the best area of the mouth for the varietal despite flavour being perceived by olfaction


title: "Wine glass" content: in the upper nasal cavity, not the mouth. The importance of wine glass shape could also be based on false ideas about the arrangement of different taste buds on the tongue, such as the thoroughly discredited tongue map. Most wine glasses are stemware, that is they are goblets composed of three parts: the bowl, stem, and foot. In some designs the opening of the glass is narrower than the widest part of the bowl (to concentrate the aroma), others are more conical. In addition, "stemless" wine glasses (tumblers) are available in a variety of sizes and shapes. The latter are


title: "Wine glass" content: typically used more casually than their traditional counterparts, as they negate the benefits of using stemmed wine glasses. Some common types of wine glasses are described below. Glasses for red wine are characterized by their rounder, wider bowl, which increases the rate of oxidation. As oxygen from the air chemically interacts with the wine, flavor and aroma are believed to be subtly altered. This process of oxidation is generally considered more compatible with red wines, whose complex flavours are said to be smoothed out after being exposed to air. Red wine glasses can have particular styles of their own, such


title: "Wine glass" content: as White wine glasses vary enormously in size and shape, from the delicately tapered Champagne flute, to the wide and shallow glasses used to drink Chardonnay. Different shaped glasses are used to accentuate the unique characteristics of different styles of wine. Wide mouthed glasses function similarly to red wine glasses discussed above, promoting rapid oxidation which alters the flavor of the wine. White wines which are best served slightly oxidized are generally full flavored wines, such as oaked chardonnay. For lighter, fresher styles of white wine, oxidation is less desirable as it is seen to mask the delicate nuances of


title: "Wine glass" content: the wine. To preserve a crisp, clean flavor, many white wine glasses will have a smaller mouth, which reduces surface area and in turn, the rate of oxidization. In the case of sparkling wine, such as Champagne or Asti, an even smaller mouth is used to keep the wine sparkling longer in the glass. Champagne flutes are characterised by a long stem with a tall, narrow bowl on top. The shape is designed to keep sparkling wine desirable during its consumption. Just as with wine glasses, the flute is designed to be held by the stem to help prevent the


title: "Wine glass" content: heat from the hand from warming the liquid inside. The bowl itself is designed in a manner to help retain the signature carbonation in the beverage. This is achieved by reducing the surface area at the opening of the bowl. Additionally the flute design adds to the aesthetic appeal of champagne, allowing the bubbles to travel further due to the narrow design, giving a more pleasant visual appeal. A sherry glass or schooner is drinkware generally used for serving aromatic alcoholic beverages, such as sherry, port, aperitifs, and liqueurs, and layered shooters. The "copita", with its aroma-enhancing narrow taper, is


title: "Wine glass" content: a type of sherry glass. A boccalino is a mug used in Ticino, Switzerland, to drink local wine (Merlot or similar). It has a volume of approximately 200 ml. Some authors recommend one holds the glass by the stem, to avoid warming the wine and smudging the bowl. High quality wine glasses once were made of lead glass, which has a higher index of refraction and is heavier than ordinary glass, but health concerns regarding the ingestion of lead resulted in their being replaced by lead-free glass. Wine glasses, with the exception of the hock glass, are generally not coloured


title: "Wine glass" content: or frosted as doing so would diminish appreciation of the wine's colour. There used to be an ISO standard (ISO/PAS IWA 8:2009) for glass clarity and freedom from lead and other heavy metals, but it was withdrawn. Some producers of high-end wine glasses such as Schott Zwiesel have pioneered methods of infusing titanium into the glass to increase its durability and reduce the likelihood of the glass breaking. In the 18th Century, glass makers would draw spiral patterns in the stem as they made the glass. If they used air bubbles it was called an airtwist; if they used threads,


title: "Wine glass" content: either white or coloured, it would be called opaque twist. The International Organization for Standardization has a specification (ISO 3591:1977) for a wine-tasting glass. It consists of a cup (an "elongated egg") supported on a stem resting on a base. The opening is narrower than the convex part so as to concentrate the bouquet. The capacity is approximately 215 ml, but it is intended to take a 50 ml pour. Some glasses of a similar shape, but with different capacities, may be loosely referred to as ISO glasses, but they form no part of the ISO specification. In the UK

title: "Sweet pea" content: Sweet pea The sweet pea ("Lathyrus odoratus") is a flowering plant in the genus "Lathyrus" in the family Fabaceae (legumes), native to Sicily, Cyprus, southern Italy and the Aegean Islands. It is an annual climbing plant, growing to a height of , where suitable support is available. The leaves are pinnate with two leaflets and a terminal tendril, which twines around supporting plants and structures, helping the sweet pea to climb. In the wild plant the flowers are purple, broad; they are larger and very variable in color in the many cultivars. The annual species, "L. odoratus", may be confused


title: "Sweet pea" content: with the everlasting pea, "L. latifolius", a perennial. Scottish nurseryman Henry Eckford (1823–1905) cross-bred and developed the sweet pea, turning it from a rather insignificant if sweetly scented flower into a floral sensation of the late Victorian era. His initial success and recognition came while serving as head gardener for the Earl of Radnor, raising new cultivars of pelargoniums and dahlias. In 1870 he went to work for one Dr. Sankey of Sandywell near Gloucester. A member of the Royal Horticultural Society, he was awarded a First Class Certificate (the top award) in 1882 for introducing the sweet pea cultivar


title: "Sweet pea" content: 'Bronze Prince', marking the start of association with the flower. In 1888 he set up his development and trial fields for sweet peas in Wem in Shropshire. By 1901, he had introduced a total of 115 of the 264 cultivars grown at the time. Eckford was presented with the RHS Victoria Medal of Honour for his work. He died in 1906, but his work was continued for a time by his son John Eckford. More recently, the association between the sweet pea, the Eckfords and Wem has been highlighted again. In the late 1980s, the Sweet Pea Society of Wem


title: "Sweet pea" content: formation of collagen. Symptoms are similar to those of scurvy and copper deficiency, which share the common feature of inhibiting proper formation of collagen fibrils. Seeds of the sweet pea contain beta-aminopropionitrile that prevents the cross-linking of collagen by inhibiting lysyl oxidase and thus the formation of hydroxylysine, leading to loose skin. Recent experiments have attempted to develop this chemical as a treatment to avoid disfiguring skin contractions after skin grafting. Gregor Mendel is today recognized as the "Father of Modern Genetics" for his work with the cross breeding of pea plants ("Pisum sativum") with different characteristics, and sweet pea


title: "Sweet pea" content: hybrid, the blue colour requiring two genes derived independently from the two white parents. Like the blue rose, the yellow sweet pea remains elusive. "Lathyrus belinensis" is a related Lathyrus species which has red and yellow flowers. There are ongoing attempts to bring the yellow color into "Lathyrus odoratus" by crossing it with "Lathyrus belinensis". Several new sweet pea cultivars have been created as a result, though not any with the yellow flower color so far. Sweet pea The sweet pea ("Lathyrus odoratus") is a flowering plant in the genus "Lathyrus" in the family Fabaceae (legumes), native to Sicily, Cyprus,

Geely CK The Geely CK is a 4-door, 5-seater subcompact sedan produced by the Chinese manufacturer Geely from May 2005 to January 2016. The CK's Chinese name, "Ziyoujian", stands for "Freedom Ship" or "Free Cruiser". It was sold as the Geely Otaka on the Russian market in 2007-2008. Nowadays the car is sold as the Gleagle CK in the Chinese domestic market, part of Geely's recent proliferation of brands The CK holds the distinction of being the first Chinese


title: "Frozen section procedure" content: Frozen section procedure The frozen section procedure is a pathological laboratory procedure to perform rapid microscopic analysis of a specimen. It is used most often in oncological surgery. The technical name for this procedure is cryosection. The quality of the slides produced by frozen section is of lower quality than formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue processing. While diagnosis can be rendered in many cases, fixed tissue processing is preferred in many conditions for more accurate diagnosis. The intraoperative consultation is the name given to the whole intervention by the pathologist, which includes not only frozen section but also gross evaluation


title: "Frozen section procedure" content: of the specimen, examination of cytology preparations taken on the specimen (e.g. touch imprints), and aliquoting of the specimen for special studies (e.g. molecular pathology techniques, flow cytometry). The report given by the pathologist is usually limited to a "benign" or "malignant" diagnosis, and communicated to the surgeon operating via intercom. When operating on a previously confirmed malignancy, the main purpose of the pathologist is to inform the surgeon if the resection margin is clear of residual cancer, or if residual cancer is present at the resection margin. The method of processing is usually done with the bread loafing technique.


title: "Frozen section procedure" content: But margin controlled surgery (CCPDMA) can be performed using a variety of tissue cutting and mounting methods, including mohs surgery. The frozen section procedure as practiced today in medical laboratories is based on the description by Dr Louis B. Wilson in 1905. Wilson developed the technique from earlier reports at the request of Dr William Mayo, surgeon and one of the founders of the Mayo Clinic Earlier reports by Dr Thomas S. Cullen at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore also involved frozen section, but only after formalin fixation, and pathologist Dr William Welch, also at Hopkins, experimented with Cullen's procedure


title: "Frozen section procedure" content: but without clinical consequences. Hence, Wilson is generally credited with truly pioneering the procedure (Gal & Cagle, 2005). The key instrument for cryosection is the cryostat, which is essentially a microtome inside a freezer. The microtome can be compared to a very accurate "deli" slicer, capable of slicing sections as thin as 1 micrometre. The usual histology slice is cut at 5 to 10 micrometres. The surgical specimen is placed on a metal tissue disc which is then secured in a chuck and frozen rapidly to about –20 to –30 °C. The specimen is embedded in a gel like medium


title: "Frozen section procedure" content: called OCT and consisting of poly ethylene glycol and polyvinyl alcohol; this compound is known by many names and when frozen has the same density as frozen tissue. At this temperature, most tissues become rock-hard. Usually a lower temperature is required for fat or lipid rich tissue. Each tissue has a preferred temperature for processing. Subsequently it is cut frozen with the microtome portion of the cryostat, the section is picked up on a glass slide and stained (usually with hematoxylin and eosin, the H&E stain). The preparation of the sample is much more rapid than with traditional histology technique


title: "Frozen section procedure" content: (around 10 minutes vs 16 hours). However, the technical quality of the sections is much lower. The entire laboratory can occupy a space less than , and minimal ventilation is required compared to a standard wax embedded specimen laboratory. The principal use of the frozen section procedure is the examination of tissue while surgery is taking place. This may be for various reasons: A Cochrane systematic review published in 2016 analysed all studies that reported diagnostic accuracy of frozen sections in women undergoing surgery for suspicious tumor in ovary. The review concluded that for tumors that were clearly either benign


title: "Frozen section procedure" content: or malignant on frozen section, the accuracy of the diagnosis was good, as confirmed later by regular biopsy. On the contrary, where the frozen section diagnosis was a borderline tumor, neither confirming not ruling out cancer, the diagnosis was less accurate. The review suggests that in such situations of uncertainty, surgeons may choose to perform additional surgery in this group of women at the time of their initial surgery in order to reduce the need for a second operation, as on an average one out of five of these women were subsequently found to have cancer. Frozen section procedure The


title: "Eötvös effect" content: at 60 degrees latitude, co-moving with the Earth, is following a circular trajectory, with a radius of about 3190 kilometer, and a velocity of about 233 m/s. That circular trajectory requires a centripetal force of about 0.017 newton for every kilogram of mass; 0.17 newton for the 10,000 gram internal weight. At 60 degrees latitude, the component that is perpendicular to the local surface (the local vertical) is half the total force. Hence, at 60 degrees latitude, any object co-moving with the Earth has its weight reduced by about 0.08 percent, thanks to the Earth's rotation. Calculating the Eötvös effect:


title: "David Geiser" content: late 1970s. Geiser moved to New York City in the early 1980s, where he concentrated on oil painting while moving into abstract expressionism. Geiser's paintings are tactile and deep, often being composed of many layers of shellack, pitch, tar, rope and scrap wood. Geiser is married to actress Mercedes Ruehl and lives in the Hamptons with her and their son Jake. David Geiser David Geiser (born June 28, 1948) is an American painter and creator of several underground comix. David Geiser is an abstract expressionist painter, born in Rochester, New York in 1948.

The citizens of Groningen call their tower "d'Olle Grieze", meaning "the old grey one" in the local dialect. Twice before a tower has stood on the site of the current Martinitoren. The first was built in the 13th century; this was approximately 30 metres high and built in the Romanesque style. This tower was destroyed by lightning. In the 15th century a second tower was built,


title: "Sajmište concentration camp" content: quickly dismissed due to the area being considered "too filthy and unhygenic." When several other plans to intern the Jewish and Romani populations of Belgrade failed, a concentration camp was established on a peninsula surrounded on three sides by the Sava river, and located in full view of Belgrade's central Terazije Square. The camp was positioned in a manner which made escape almost impossible. It was located near administrative and police centres, as well as the Belgrade central railway station, which allowed for the efficient transport of Jews to the camp from the many towns in the region. Its purpose

Located in the city of Idaho Falls, Idaho it was the first LDS temple built in Idaho, and the first temple built with a modern single-spire design. The temple in Idaho Falls was announced on March 3, 1937. The building was designed by the church board of temple architects: Edward O. Anderson, Georgious Y. Cannon, Ramm Hansen, John Fetzer, Hyrum Pope, Lorenzo Snow Young. The exterior of


title: "Equus lambei" content: Equus lambei Equus lambei (common names include Yukon horse, and Yukon wild horse) is an extinct species of the genus "Equus". "Equus lambei" ranged across North America until approximately 10,000 years ago. Based on recent examinations of the mtDNA of "Equus lambei" remains, scientists have concluded that "E. lambei" was probably much like the extinct Tarpan, also known as the Eurasian wild horse, and the living Przewalski's Horse. A partial carcass of "Equus lambei" is on display at the Yukon Beringia Interpretive Centre in Whitehorse, Yukon. Evidence from "E. lambei" mtDNA has shown that "Equus lambei" is a close relative


title: "Email hosting service" content: Email hosting service An email hosting service is an Internet hosting service that operates email servers. Email hosting services usually offer premium email as opposed to advertisement-supported free email or free webmail. Email hosting services thus differ from typical end-user email providers such as webmail sites. They cater mostly to demanding email users and small and medium-sized (SME) businesses, while larger enterprises usually run their own email hosting services on their own equipment using software such as Microsoft Exchange Server or Postfix. Hosting providers can manage a user's own domain name, including any email authentication scheme that the domain owner


title: "Email hosting service" content: wishes to enforce in order to convey the meaning that using a specific "domain name" identifies and qualifies email senders. Most email hosting providers offer advanced premium email solutions hosted on dedicated custom email platforms. The technology and offerings of different email hosting providers can therefore vary with different needs. Email offered by most webhosting companies is usually more basic standardized POP3-based email and webmail based on open source webmail applications like Horde, RoundCube or SquirrelMail. Almost all web hosting providers offer standard email hosting. Email hosting service An email hosting service is an Internet hosting service that operates email


title: "Bushing (electrical)" content: in its survival. Bushings can therefore vary considerably in both material and design style. The earliest bushing designs use electro porcelain for both indoor and outdoor applications. Porcelain is impervious to moisture once sealed by fired glaze and is low cost and flexible to manufacture. The main disadvantage with porcelain is that its small value of linear expansion has to be accommodated by using flexible seals and substantial metal fittings, both of which present manufacturing and operational problems. A basic porcelain bushing is a hollow porcelain shape that fits through a hole in a wall or metal case, allowing a

Pareland is also known as Vuasu ("Asu" the root word and "Chasu" or "Athu", the language). The location lies on one of the northern routes for historic east-African long-distance trade, connecting the hinterland with the coast of the Indian Ocean. The residents of northern Pare recognise two sub-areas based on ethnolinguistic differences: Gweno-speaking Ugweno to the north and Chasu-speaking Usangi to the south. The Pare were the main producers of iron for which there

At the start of the 20th century the population of South Pare (now known as Same District) was estimated at 22,000 (Naval Intelligence Division, 1920, p. 28) comprising an ethnic group called Asu or Pare who are speakers of Chasu, a Bantu language. They are patrilineal and were in several areas organized into small chiefdoms. This region has historically received a substantial population of people from the Taita region of present-day Kenya. The Pare area was also inhabited by Cushitic groups like the Mbugu in Ugweno who were eventually assimilated into the Pare communities. Some pare come

Using a wooden implement called a "wagon", the gold is quickly cut into four pieces and immediately placed in a packet called a mold for the final beating. The wagon has sharp cutting blades, traditionally made from malacca cane (rattan). The mold contains 1,500 pieces of gold. Before the mold is filled with gold, the skins are coated with a gypsum powder. This process prevents the delicate gold leaf from sticking to the skins. The mold is beaten with an eight-pound hammer for three to four hours until it has been


title: "Emerson railway station" content: was a complex junction of the railway and major connector roads, South Road and Cross Road. Debate occurred during planning for the duplication of the then Brighton Line in 1949, that a level crossing should be avoided due to the expected resulting congestion and an overhead railway bridge was proposed by the Highways Department. In September 1952, a conference was held to discuss the Emerson Rail Crossing where once again a grade separation was proposed via an overland bridge or a subway. A bridge was not built at this stage, with automatic gates being installed instead with coordinating traffic lights.

The name is based on Proto-Germanic "*ansuz", denoting a deity belonging to the principal pantheon in Germanic paganism. The shape of the rune is likely from Neo-Etruscan "a" (), like Latin A ultimately from Phoenician aleph. In the Norwegian rune poem, "óss" is given a meaning of "estuary" while in the Anglo-Saxon one, "ōs" takes the Latin meaning of "mouth". The Younger Futhark rune is transliterated as "ą" to distinguish it from the new ár rune (ᛅ), which continues the "jēran" rune after loss

Due to this heavy weight the mortar was most often mounted in a tracked mortar carrier of the M113 family, designated as the M106 Mortar Carrier. This vehicle mounted mortar was crewed by five people: the track commander (mortar sergeant/gun commander), gunner, assistant gunner, ammunition bearer and vehicle driver. Ground mounting of the mortar was time consuming and strenuous as a hole had to be dug for the base plate of the mortar to rest in, sandbags had to filled


title: "Accessibility relation" content: is necessary that...' formula_13 symbolizes the phrase 'It is possible that...' These operators can be attached to a single sentence to form a new compound sentence. For example, formula_12 can be attached to a sentence such as 'I walk outside.' The new sentence would look like: formula_12'I walk outside.' The entire "new" sentence would therefore read: 'It is necessary that I walk outside.' But the symbol formula_16 can be used to stand for any sentence instead of writing out entire sentences. So any sentence such as 'I walk outside' or 'I walk outside "and" I look around' are symbolized by


title: "Accessibility relation" content: formula_16. Thus for any sentence formula_16 (simple or compound), the compound sentences formula_19 and formula_20 can be formed. Sentences such as 'It is necessary that I walk outside' or 'It is possible that I walk outside' would therefore look like formula_12formula_16 and formula_20, respectively. However, the symbols formula_24, formula_25 can also be used to stand for any statement of our language. For example, formula_24 can stand for 'I walk outside' or 'I walk outside and I look around.' The sentence 'It is necessary that I walk outside' would look like: formula_12formula_25. The sentence 'It is possible that I walk outside'


title: "Accessibility relation" content: the case, or 'not.' The formula_24 symbol stands for any statement such as 'I walk outside.' Therefore, it could also stand for 'The apple is Red.' Example 1: The first principle says that any statement involving 'necessity' on the left side of the double arrow is equivalent to the statement about the negation of 'possibility' on the right. So using the symbols and their meaning, the first modal axiom, formula_31 could stand for: 'It's necessary that I walk outside if and only if it's not possible that it is not the case that I walk outside.' And when I say


title: "Accessibility relation" content: that 'It's necessary that I walk outside,' this is the same as saying that 'It's not possible that it is not the case that I walk outside.' Furthermore, when I say that 'It's not possible that it is not the case that I walk outside,' this is the same as saying that 'It's necessary that I walk outside.' Example 2: formula_24 stands for 'The apple is red.' So using the symbols and their meaning described above, the first modal axiom, formula_31 could stand for: 'It's necessary that the apple is red if and only if it's not possible that it

Puddles in natural landscapes and habitats, when not resulting from precipitation, can indicate the presence of a seep or spring. Small seasonal riparian plants, grasses, and wildflowers can germinate with the ephemeral "head start" of moisture provided by a puddle.
