Part of speech: noun

text: A diagram of the latitudinal variations with time is sometimes called a keogram. Neither scanning photometers nor cameras are sufficiently sensitive to record the most rapid fluctuations in the auroral emissions, but TV techniques, both monochrome and color, are more sensitive and have been applied very successfully to dynamic auroral photography in recent years. In addition to their scientific value, some of these auroral "videos" are possessed of no little esthetic interest (particularly if they are set to music). Figure 6.9 shows an example of a keogram composed from TV data.

The Supreme Being does not reside in peculiar churches or communities; he is equally the great Manitou of the woods and of the plains; and even in the gloom, the obscurity of those very woods, his justice may be as well understood and felt as in the most sumptuous temples. Each worship with us, hath, you know, its peculiar political tendency; there it has none but to inspire gratitude and truth: their tender minds shall receive no other idea of the Supreme Being, than that of the father of all men, who requires nothing more of us than what tends to make each other happy.
