279 Thule

**279 Thule** is a very big Main belt asteroid. It is classified as a D-type asteroid and is probably made of organic rich silicates, carbon and anhydrous silicates.

The orbit of Thule is unusual. It appears to orbit in the farthest edge of the Main belt in a 3:4 orbital resonance with planet Jupiter. Unlike the Hilda asteroids whose eccentricity is fairly common of main belt asteroids, Thule has a very low eccentricity - actually much lower than that of Jupiter itself and only a bit higher than that of Earth. Why it has this orbit is not clear, as is the reason for the absence of smaller bodies in similar 4:3 resonances with Jupiter.

Some astronomers have argued that Thule's present orbit is the natural result of the force of Jupiter on a body orbiting at exactly the distance from the Sun Thule does, in the same way (though with the reverse effect) as the Kirkwood gaps in the closer parts of the asteroid belt. It could be that the resonance which holds Thule in a very low-eccentricity orbit serves to eject other smaller bodies whose distance from the Sun is only a bit different from that of Thule itself.

It is the main member of the Thule dynamical group.

It was found by Johann Palisa on October 25, 1888 in Vienna and was named  after the ultimate northern land of Thule.

Mélodie

***Mélodie*** is the French word for “melody”. The word is used in music to mean songs written by French composers of classical music from the mid-19th century to the present. The _mélodie_ in French music is similar to the _Lied_ in German music. "_Mélodie_" is not the same as _chanson_ (the French word for “song”). The word "_chanson_" is used for folksongs or popular songs.

## History

In Germany composers of classical music had been writing great songs from about 1800, but in France the _mélodie_ became important about 50 years later. While some German _Lieder_ were based on folksong, the texts of the _mélodie_s were usually poems by serious poets.

Hector Berlioz was the first composer to call some of his compositions _mélodie_s. His _Les Nuits d'Été_ (1841) is one of the greatest of all song cycles. Charles Gounod wrote about 200 _mélodie_s. He used texts by famous poets such as Hugo.

Gabriel Fauré wrote more than 100 _mélodie_s, many based on poems by Verlaine.

Henri Duparc wrote seventeen _mélodie_s.  These are what he is known for.

Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel were very famous composers who wrote a lot of music, including _mélodie_s that are often sung today. Ravel’s melodies are unusual because they are often based on folksong. Other composers of _mélodie_ at the time include Albert Roussel, Reynaldo Hahn and André Caplet.

_Mélodie_s continue to be composed today, though perhaps the last really popular composer of them was Francis Poulenc, who died in 1963.

## Performing _mélodie_s

In the French _mélodie_ the poet’s feelings are often suggested or hinted at rather than stated in an obvious way. There is a very close relationship between the text (words) and the melody. To sing _mélodie_ really well a singer must know the French language very well and understand a lot about French poetry. The rules about singing in the French language can be quite complicated. It is important to know when to let the last sound of a word run into the next word (elision). Several books have been written about this.

Although many famous singers are well known for singing French _mélodie_, the most famous singer from the past was Pierre Bernac. He gave many song recitals with the composer Francis Poulenc who accompanied him on the piano. He wrote a book on how to sing _mélodie_s.
Stage6

**Stage6** was a video sharing website. It was similar to other websites like YouTube because it let users upload, view, and share video clips. Unlike many other video sharing sites, Stage6 allowed users to upload better quality videos and very large file sizes. There are few upload limitations, and visitors could download videos easily through the website.

## History

Stage6 was a video sharing community, where users could upload and share their video clips and stream them in high quality because the video clips were -encoded with DivX and Xvid video codecs.

Unfortunately the website never got a chance to go grow beyond beta status and was shut down by DivX Inc. On February 29, 2008 because DivX was unable to support Stage6.

On June 2008, CNET had stated that Stage6 was one of the greatest defunct websites in history.

Stage6 was first launched in 2006 by DivX Ink and in public beta, Stage6 was a similar webpage like Youtube which had allowed its users to stream and upload videos, for those customers that had registered.

On July 24, 2007 DivX had stated that they were pursuing to separate from Stage6, and become a single company away from DivX Inc. The Co-Founder and Executive Chairman Jordan Greenhall would be changing from his current role as CEO to manage the separating Stage6.

It was successful, and was estimated to be done by 2007. By January 2008, Stage6 had a total of 10.7 million views.

On February 25, 2008, DivX announced that they would shut down Stage6 on February 28, 2008, stating that they were unable to continue to provide the attention and resources required for its continued operation.

A day later than stated, Stage6 ceased to operate, directing users to a Veoh welcome page designed specifically for the purpose of receiving the Stage6 community.

Nashville Sounds

The **Nashville Sounds** are a Minor League Baseball team from Nashville, Tennessee. They play baseball at the Triple-A level, the most difficult level before Major League Baseball, against other baseball teams in the International League. The Sounds are partnered with the Milwaukee Brewers, a Major League Baseball team. When a player shows that he plays well at this level, he may be moved up to play for the Brewers.

The team is named "Sounds" because the city of Nashville is a famous part of the music industry. The "Nashville sound," a form of country music, started there in the 1950s. The Sounds played at a ballpark called Herschel Greer Stadium from 1978 to 2014. In 2015, they began to play at a new stadium called First Horizon Park. They have played in Nashville longer than any other professional sports team currently playing in the city.

SuperDisk

**LS-120** or **SuperDisk** is a high-speed, high-capacity alternative to the 90 mm (3.5 in), 1.44 MB floppy disk. It is called High density media. The main advantage when compared to FDD and ZD is the possibility to use the united mechanism for these special diskettes even for FDD and ZD. This SuperDisk was introduced by Iomega in 1995 as ZD. But the SuperDisks were not expanded because of slowness and unreliability in comparison with ZD.

SuperDisk 120MB Diskettes may still be available in the marketplace, however are no longer warranted. We do not have information about where these products can be purchased.

Once a drive fails, it may be impossible or expensive to get data off the diskettes.

SuperDisk diskettes are etched with a servo pattern at the factory. This pattern is then read by the SuperDisk drive to precisely align the read/write head. The result is that a SuperDisk diskette can have 2,490 tracks, as opposed to the 160 tracks that conventional 3.5-inch 1.44 MB diskettes use.

Unlike other removable disk storage solutions, such as the Zip drive, SuperDisk is backward compatible with older diskettes. This means that the same SuperDisk drive can be used to read and write to older 1.44 MB diskettes as well as the new 120 MB SuperDisk diskettes.

Here are some current data storage and backup technologies that Imation supplies for a variety of customer needs. A combination of backup media may be the best course; for instance, backing up currently used files to Flash Drives or Micro Drives, and keeping seldom used files on DVD or CD.that snapbacks are back.

Single person

A person is called **single** if he or she is not married, not in a civil union, and not in a sexual or romantic relationship. In a more general sense, the word also means that person currently has no exclusive partner, like a boyfriend or girlfriend. Such people can be classified into different types:
- People who choose to live alone. This includes hermits and shamans. The Catholic Church does not want that their priests marry. There are also some restrictions in the Orthodox church. Nuns and monks are also not allowed to marry. Such singles are often part of a religious order or community.
- People who live alone because of social norms. This was especially true for children who were born outside a marriage, in the Middle Ages.
- People who have not yet found their partner. Some people actively search for a mate, others simply wait until the right person comes along.
- People whose partner died, or who are divorced.

In English, male singles used to be called _bachelors_, female singles used to be called _spinsters_ (or _bachelorettes_, more recently). In general, the word _single_ is used more often now, because it also does not make a difference between the two sexes.

In 2019, actress Emma Watson coined the term _self-partnered_ to call herself single and happy.
Catfish

**Catfish** are an order of teleost fish, the **Siluriformes**. There are about 40 families in the order.

They are called catfish because their barbels look like the whiskers of a cat. They are very diverse. The heaviest is the Mekong giant catfish, up to  350 kg (770 lb). The longest is the wels catfish, up to 4 m (13 ft). There are also detrivores in the group. There are some tiny parasitic catfish called candiru. Some catfish are grown for food, in fish farms. Some catfish can be kept in aquaria.

## Special lifestyles

Most catfish do not harm people, but some of them can cause problems. It is said that the candiru can enter the human urethra, where they stay as parasites. In normal life they are parasites on fish gills.

The Malapteruridae are a family of electric catfish. Several species of the family can produce an electric shock of up to 350 volts using electroplaques of an electric organ.

### Wels catfish

The wels catfish (_Silurus glanis_) is a large catfish.

### _Corydoras_

_Corydoras_ is a genus of popular aquarium fishes.

### Widemouth blindcat

The widemouth blindcat (_Satan eurystomus_) is another species of catfish.

### Madtoms

Adam's apple

The **Adam's apple** is a feature of the human neck. The medical name in English for it is the **laryngeal prominence**. This lump is formed by the angle of the thyroid cartilage (_a type of soft bone_) around the larynx (part of the throat which holds the vocal chords).

The Adam's apple can usually be seen better in adult men than in women, girls, or boys. The Adam's apple is only part of the thyroid cartilage around the larynx. A large Adam's apple is commonly seen as a male secondary sex characteristic, although not all males have it and quite a few women have one too.

## History of the name

It is called "Adam's apple" as a reference to the forbidden fruit, which according to a traditional Jewish belief, got stuck in Adam's throat. Different languages use the same term, for instance _Adamsappel_ (Dutch), _pomme d'Adam_ (French) and _Adamsapfel_ (German). Until the 19th century, the medical term was also generally _Pomum Adami_. When the Basle Nomina Anatomica was introduced in 1895, it became _Prominentia laryngea_.
Adam's apple (disambiguation)

Forbidden fruit

The words **forbidden fruit** stand as a metaphor (an image). The metaphor comes from the book of Genesis in the Bible. There Adam and Eve are thrown out of Paradise because they eat from the tree of knowledge.

The fruit has commonly been represented as an apple due to wordplay of the Latin word for apple, _malus_, which can mean both "evil" and "apple". The Bible does not specify a fruit, but locates it as being at the very center of The Garden of Eden. In Judaism the fruit is believed to be either a grape, a fig, a citron or wheat. Most scholars say that the type of fruit is not forbidden, it was just the fruits of that particular tree that were.

In general, the term can also refer to something illegal or immoral to do. It might also be dangerous. Many times this is about sex outside of marriage.

Gnostic scriptures consider the forbidden fruit as something positive and the act to make it forbidden as a malevolent action from humanity's creators.

Richard Mentor Johnson

**Richard Mentor Johnson** (October 17, 1780 – November 19, 1850) was the ninth vice president of the United States and served under President Martin Van Buren. A resident of Kentucky, Johnson served as a U.S. representative and senator from Kentucky and in the Kentucky House of Representatives.

Johnson started his career as a lawyer by representing many people for free. He was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1806. During the War of 1812, Johnson led troops against the British.

Johnson later served in the Senate before he was chosen as vice president. Johnson was elected by the Senate and not through the normal election because he did not have enough electors to win. That happened because Johnson lived with a slave named Julia Chinn, had two children with her, and treated her like his wife.

Johnson was not chosen to run with Van Buren in 1840. Johnson served in the Kentucky House of Representatives again as well as ran for a Senate seat again. In 1850, he was again elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, but he died two weeks into his term on November 19, 1850.

Allemande

An **allemande** () is a dance that was popular in Baroque music of the 17th and early 18th centuries.  The word comes from the French word for "German".

Composers of the Baroque period often wrote a group of dances called a suite.  There was usually an allemande, a courante, a sarabande and a gigue, in that order. Sometimes there were one or two other dances as well.  Sometimes a suite started with a prelude (an introductory movement) before the allemande.

The allemande was played at a moderate speed - not very fast, nor very slow.  There were usually 4 beats in a bar (4/4 time) but also sometimes in 2/2 time, and it started with an anacrusis (an upbeat, i.e. one, or possibly a small group of notes which were not on the first beat of a bar).

Mortadella di Bologna

**Mortadella di Bologna** is an Italian kind of sausage. It is made of ground pork meat. Salt, pepper, sugar as well as small cubes of pork fat are added. It is then made into big sausages. It is then cooked in special ovens at 90°C (194° Fahrenheit). Some kinds of Mortadella have other spices in them.

As a Protected Geographical Status food, Mortadella di Bologna must come from the Bologna province.

## Outside Italy

Mortadella is also produced and consumed in other countries. It is very popular in Spain, and Portugal.

Many Italians emigrated to South America in  the early 20th cenury. For this reason, Mortadella is also very popular in Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Brazil, Ecuador, Chile, Colombia, Uruguay and Venezuela. In these countries it is spelled , and its recipe is quite similar to the traditional Italian, with additional pepper grains.
Courante

A **courante** () is a dance that was popular in Baroque music in the 17th and early 18th centuries.  The word comes from the French word for to "run".

The courante was a fast, running dance with 3 beats in a bar (the time signature was often 3/2, although sometimes it was 3/4).  During the 17th century the French courante started to become slower than the Italian corrente, and it often had more counterpoint (imitating parts).  However, this was not a strict rule, and the courantes that Bach wrote were both Italian and French in style, and sometimes he called them "courante" and sometimes "corrente".

Composers of the Baroque period often composed a group of several dances.  This was called a suite.  There was usually an allemande, then the courante was the second dance, followed by a sarabande and a gigue and sometimes one or two other dances or as well.
Sarabande

A **sarabande** (spelt **sarabanda** in Italian), is a dance that was popular in Baroque music in the 17th and early 18th centuries.

Composers of the Baroque period often composed a group of several dances.  This was called a suite.  There was usually an Allemande, a Courante, a Sarabande and a Gigue, in that order, and sometimes two Bourrées as well.

The sarabande was a slow, stately dance with 3 beats in a bar (3/4 time or Simple Triple). There was always a small stress (Tenuto) on the second beat of the bar. The note on the first beat would often be played quite short so that the second beat would feel heavy. Like the other dance movements in the suite, the Sarabande was in Binary form.

The sarabande seems to have come from Central America where it was known as "zarabanda".  Although it was mainly used in the Baroque Period, composers in the 20th Century such as Debussy, Satie, Howells and Britten sometimes wrote Sarabandes.

Perhaps the most famous Sarabande is one written by an unknown composer. The piece is called _La folie espagnole_. Many Baroque composers such as Monteverdi and Corelli and even some modern ones used this well-known tune.

## Movies

The sarabande has been used a lot in movies, including one by Ingmar Bergman called _Saraband_ (2003). It uses the sarabande from the 5th suite for solo cello by Bach.
Gigue

The **gigue** or **giga** is a lively baroque dance.  "Gigue" (pronounce "jeeg") is the French word, and "giga" (pronounce "jee-ga") is the Italian word.  The English word is "jig" and in England this refers to a folk dance.

The gigue was one of the movements in a series of dance movements called suites written by Baroque composers. The Baroque suite normally had an Allemande, a Courante, a Sarabande and a Gigue to finish with.  Sometimes there were one or two other movements as well.

The gigue usually has a compound metre such as 6/8, 6/4, 9/8 or 12/16.   They often have a contrapuntal texture and each phrase is usually four bars long.  Like all the dances in the Baroque suite, the gigue is in binary form.  The second half will usually start with the main tune in inversion (upside down).
