Title: Caledonian Forest Content: thumb|right|Caledonian Forest above the Allt Ruadh The Caledonian Forest is a type of woodland that once covered vast areas of Scotland. Today, parts of the original forest survive, covering in 84 places. The forests are home to a wide variety of wildlife, much of which is not found elsewhere in the British Isles. ==History== The Caledonian forests were formed at the end of the last ice age. Trees began to recolonise what is now the British Isles over a land bridge which is now beneath the English Channel. Forests of this type were found all over what is now the island of Great Britain for a short period. Then the climate began to warm and the pine wood retreated north into the Scottish Highlands. thumb|right|What's left of a Caledonian pinewood near Loch an Eilein The native pinewoods which formed this westernmost outpost of the boreal forest of Europe are estimated to have covered as a vast wilderness of pine, birch, rowan, aspen, juniper, oak and a few other species. On the west coast, oak and birch predominated in a temperate rainforest ecosystem rich in ferns, mosses and lichens. The forest takes its name from the Romans, who called Scotland Caledonia, from the early Celtic word '*caleto-' meaning 'hard, strong'. The name was used by a local tribe or tribal confederation of native Picts or Britons called the Caledonii. == Rewilding == Today less than 1% of the original native pinewood forest survives, in isolated remnants. The only real future of the once great forest is rewilding. This amounts to keeping sections free of deer and hogs until trees have a chance to grow. Natural predators are also needed to keep control of herbivores which would otherwise eat everything before trees could grow. Alan Watson Featherstone explains his life's work.Restoring the ancient Caledonian Forest. ==Wildlife== A unique ecosystem in the British Isles, the Caledonian pinewoods are home to some of the country's rarest wildlife. It is one of the last remaining wildernesses in the British Isles, but most of it has gone. Breeding bird species in Caledonian pine forests which breed nowhere else in the British Isles: *Black-throated diver *Capercaillie *Common goldeneye *Crested tit *Golden eagle *Greenshank *Horned grebe *Parrot crossbill *Red-throated diver *Redwing *Scottish crossbill *Temminck's stint *Wood sandpiper Breeding bird species in Caledonian pine forests rare elsewhere in the British Isles: *Black grouse *Common crossbill *Goosander *Siskin *Redpoll *Osprey *Red- breasted merganser *Long-eared owl Mammal species present in Caledonian pine forests: *European beaver The Scottish Beaver Network (viewed June 11th 2009) *Feral goat *Mountain hare *Pine marten *Red deer *Red fox *Red squirrel *Roe deer *Wildcat

Title: Robosexuality Content: Robosexuality is where a person is sexually attracted to machines, such as robots. The word "robosexuality" comes from combining the words "robot" and "sexual". Robosexuality is different from mechanophilia and technosexuality, but they can still be interconnected. A person who is sexually attracted to robots can be referred to as a robosexual. A person who is robosexual may have different gender preferences than another person who is "Robosexual". Robosexuality can be used an umbrella term to describe the sexual attraction to robots of any kind, whether they are humanlike or not. Many prefer a robot with conscience and emotion, or even the illusion of it. == Robosexuality in the world == === Robosexuality in the East === Roughly 50% of all the robots in the world are in Asia, 32% in Europe, and 16% in North America, 1% in Australia and 1% in Africa. 40% of all robots in the world are found in Japan.Reporting by Watanabe, Hiroaki; Writing and additional reporting by Negishi, Mayumi; Editing by Norton, Jerry;Japan's robots slug it out to be world champ; Reuters; 2007-12-02; retrieved on 2007-01-01 In Japan and South Korea, ideas of future robots have been mainly positive. The number of robots in Japan means more people in Japan are likely to have a love of gadgets. Manga and anime series in both countries often show love or sex between robots and humans. This would mean more robosexuality. Japanese religious beliefs allow the idea that robots have souls.Biglione, Kirk; The Secret To Japan's Robot Dominance ; Planet Tokyo; 2006-01-24; retrieved on 2007-01-02 This also makes the idea of love between humans and robots more acceptable or ordinary. === Robosexuality in the West === The idea of physical sexuality is less accepted in the west than in Japan. Western societies are more likely to be against, or even fear the development of robots. This is because a lot of films and books show robots as replacing humans instead of helping them. 'RealDoll' is a life-size sex-doll sold in America, that can be sold with robotic implants. People who feel sexually attracted, or have sex with these, are robosexual. However, one important thing to notice is that this American machine does not move and think by itself, unlike their Japanese and South Korean counterparts. ==Related pages== * Technosexuality * Robot

Title: Baha-ud-din Naqshband Content: Bahá-ud-dín Shah an-Naqshband Muhammad al-Uwaysi al-Bukhárí  (1318–1389) was the founder of what would become one of the largest Sufi Sunni orders, the Naqshbandi. == Biography == Bahá-ud-dín was born on 18 March 1318 CE (14 Muharram, 718 AH) in the village of Qasr-i-Hinduvan (later renamed Qasr-i Arifan) near Bukhara, in what is now Uzbekistan and it was there that he died in 1389. === Lineage === Bahá-ud-dín was a Sayyid, a descendant of the Islamic prophet Muhammad through Imam Hasan al-Askari. Harvard professor Annemarie Schimmel held the opinion of Bahauddin Naqshband being a descendant of Imam Hasan al Askari.Schimmel in Pain and Grace, p. 32, quote: "Khwaja Mir Dard´s paternal family came from Bukhara; they led their pedigree back to Bahauddin Naqshband, after whom the Naqshbandi order is named, and who was a descendant in the 13th generation of the 11th Shi´a Imam al-Hasan al-Askari" One registered lineage of him is the following:Tazkare Khanwade Hazrat Ishaan, p. 62 f., by Yaseen Qasvari, published by "Idarat Talimate Naqshbandiyya" # Muhammad # Ali ibn Abi Talib and Fatima Al Zahra # Imam Hussain # Imam Ali Zayn al-Abidin # Imam Muhammad al Baqir # Imam Ja'far al-Sâdiq # Imam Musa al- Kazim # Imam Ali al Reza # Imam Muhammad al Taqi # Imam Ali al Hadi # Imam Hasan al-Askari # Mir Sayyid Ali Akbar # Sayyid Mir Muhammad Mahmud Fakhriddin # Amir Sayyid Mir Muhyuddin # Amir Sayyid Mir Khalwati # Amir Sayyid Mir Naqi Naqib # Sayyid Mir Ilaq # Sayyid Mir Mahmud # Sayyid Burhan Qilich # Sayyid Mir Shaaban # Sayyid Mir Qasim # Sayyid Mir Zayn ul Abedin # Sayyid Mir Abdullah # Sayyid Mir Burhanuddin Qilich # Amir Sayyid Mir Jalalludin Muhammad Bukhari # Amir Sayyid Mir Muhammad Bukhari # Bahauddin Naqshband == Naqshbandi Golden Chain == He came into early contact with the Khwajagan (lit: the Masters), and was adopted as spiritual progeny by one of them, Baba Muhammad Sammasi, while still an infant. Sammasi was his first guide on the path, and more important was his relationship with Sammasi's principal khalifa (successor), Amir Kulal, the last link in the silsila, or chain of teachers, before Baha-ud-Din: # Muhammad # Sayyidna Abu Bakkar Siddique # Salman the Persian # Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakkar # Ja'far al-Sadiq # Bayazid Bistami # Abu al-Hassan al-Kharaqani # Abu Ali Farmadi # Abu Yaqub Yusuf al- Hamadani # Abdul Khaliq al-Gajadwani # Arif ar-Riwagri # Mahmood Anjir- Faghnawi # Azizan Ali Ramitani # Sayyid Amir Kulal # Mohammad Baba As-Samasi # Imam at-Tariqah Muhammad Baha'uddin Shah Naqshband As a youth, Naqshbandi was recognized as an exceptional Islamic scholar before he turned 20. He traveled to Mecca for the Islamic pilgrimage Hajj at least three times. He became a respected scholar in Central Asia and received many guests and pupils to Bukhara from other parts of Central Asia. == Death == Bahá-ud-dín was buried in his native village, Qasr-i Arifan, in 1389. In 1544, Khan Abd al-Aziz built over his grave a tomb and surrounding buildings. The Memorial complex is located 16 kilometers from Bukhara and is today a place of pilgrimage.

Title: Snakefly Content: The Snakeflies (Raphidioptera) are a small order of Endopterygote insects. They are closely related to the Megaloptera and Neuroptera. There are about 210 living species. They are easily recognized by their small head and long 'neck', which is actually the elongated prothorax. The snakefly, about 15 mm (0.6 inch) long, has two pairs of similar, net-veined wings, long antennae, and chewing mouthparts. The female lays eggs with a long ovipositor. == Life cycle == The life cycle includes egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The active and carnivorous larvae live beneath loose tree bark. The snakefly is found on every continent except Australia and may be beneficial to humans because it destroys the larvae and pupae of other insects.Aspöck, H. 2002.

Title: Diseconomies of scale Content: Usually, when a company grows, it is able to produce more units, at a lower per-unit price. In economics, this is known as economies of scale. Unfortunately, this is only true up to a certain point. When the company grows beyond that point, producing goods or services gets more expensive again. This effect is known as diseconomies of scale. There are many causes for this effect: * The communication costs are larger in bigger companies. It may also be more difficult to reach a given person. * In companies with more employees, it is probable that two people will be doing the same thing. This is known as duplication of effort. * Larger companies have longer response times. * Sometimes people are afraid to change procedures that worked in a smaller company, but that need adapting to a bigger company.

Title: Enol Content: thumb|right|200px|An enol An enol is an alkene that has an OH group attached to one end of the double bond. It is called an enolate if the proton on the oxygen atom is taken away. Enols are tautomers of ketones or aldehydes. Tautomers are molecules which are different only in the position of an hydrogen atom. Enols can be made very easily from ketones or aldehydes using a base. They are quite unstable, because the C=O bond is stronger than the C=C bond. However, they can do many interesting reactions. The best example is the aldol reaction. Enols of ketones can be made on two different sides. It is important to be able to choose which side to react. The side with less substituents is the easiest one to react: it can be made at low temperature with a bulky base. This is called the kinetic enolate. The other side, with more substituents, is more difficult to react. Higher temperatures are needed. This is called the thermodynamic enolate. thumb|center|800px|Kinetic (1) and thermodynamic (2) enolates Category:Functional groups

Title: Ordinal number Content: Ordinal numbers (or ordinals) are numbers that show something's order, for example: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th. Suppose a person has four different T-shirts, and then lays them in front of the person, from left to right. * At the far left, there is the red T-shirt. * Right of that is the blue one. * Then there is the yellow one. * And finally, at the far right is an orange T-shirt. If the person then starts counting the shirts from the left, he would first see the red shirt. So the red shirt is the first T-shirt. The blue shirt is the second T-shirt. The yellow shirt is the third one, and the orange T-shirt is the fourth one. The first, second, third, and fourth in this case are ordinal numbers. They result from the fact that the person has many objects, and they give them an order (hence 'ordinal'). The person then simply counts those objects, and gives the ordinal numbers to them. In set theory, ordinals are also ordinal numbers people use to order infinite sets. An example is the set \omega_0 (or \omega for short), which is the set containing all natural numbers (including 0). This is the smallest ordinal number that is infinite, and there are many more (such as \omega \+ 1). ==Related pages== *Cardinal number *Names of ordinal numbers in English *Transfinite number

Title: Plaintext Content: In cryptography, plaintext is the information which the sender wants to transmit to the receiver(s). Before computers, plaintext meant text in the language of the communicating parties. Since computers, the definition has been expanded. It now includes not only the electronic representation of text, such as emails and word processor documents, but also the computer representation of speech, music, pictures, videos, ATM and credit card transactions, sensor data, and so forth. That is basically any information which the communicating parties might wish to hide from others. The plaintext is the normal representation of the data before any action has been taken to hide it. The plaintext is used as input to an encryption algorithm; the output is termed ciphertext. Some systems, however, use a cascade of layers of encryption (called 'rounds') in which case the ciphertext output of one encryption algorithm becomes the plaintext input to the next. Triple DES is an example. ==Related pages== * Cleartext Category:Cryptography
