Option key

Since the 1990s , `` alt '' typically appears on the key , as well , for use as an Alt key with non-Mac software , such as Unix and Windows programs . However , the Option key in a Mac operating system functions differently from the Alt key under other Unix - like systems or Microsoft Windows . Most notably , it is not used to access menus or hotkeys , but is instead used as a modifier for other command codes , and also to provide easier access to various accents and symbols . In this regard , it is akin to the AltGr key , found on some IBM - compatible PC keyboards .

In the UK , proprietary use of the name Gramophone continued for another decade until , in a court case , it was adjudged to have become genericized and so could be used freely by competing disc record makers , with the result that in British English a disc record is called a `` gramophone record '' and `` phonograph record '' is traditionally assumed to mean a cylinder .

History of sound recording

`` Gramophone '' , Berliner 's trademark name , was abandoned in the US in 1900 because of legal complications , with the result that in American English Gramophones and Gramophone records , along with disc records and players made by other manufacturers , were long ago brought under the umbrella term `` phonograph '' , a word which Edison 's competitors avoided using but which was never his trademark , simply a generic term he introduced and applied to cylinders , discs , tapes and any other formats capable of carrying a sound - modulated groove . In the UK , proprietary use of the name Gramophone continued for another decade until , in a court case , it was adjudged to have become genericized and so could be used freely by competing disc record makers , with the result that in British English a disc record is called a `` gramophone record '' and `` phonograph record '' is traditionally assumed to mean a cylinder .

Others were also added to the cast , either in a small recurring role or with reduced prominence . The most notable example is Tony Way 's Ser Dontos Hollard , a drunkard knight , who had a pivotal role in Sansa Stark 's storyline that ran in the course of two novels , while in the series the role was reduced to a small scene in the opening episode . Others include : Ben Crompton as `` Dolorous Edd '' Tollet , a man of the Night 's Watch . Robert Pugh as the Wildling Craster , father and husband to Gilly . Kerr Logan as Davos Seaworth 's pious son Matthos . Karl Davies as Ser Alton Lannister , a character created for the series who replaces Cleos Frey as envoy from the Starks to the Lannisters . Daniel Portman took the role of Podrick Payne , the squire to Tyrion Lannister . The 19 - year - old Portman plays Podrick as about 16 years old , instead of about 12 as in the novels . To be able to portray Podrick as awkward , shy and weak , Portman , previously a sportsman , stopped his fitness regimen and gained some weight to appear more endearing . Lucian Msamati played Salladhor Saan , a Lysene pirate and friend of Davos Seaworth . Finally , Edward Dogliani appeared briefly as the `` Lord of Bones '' ( or `` Rattleshirt '' in the novels ) , a Wildling leader and Oliver Ford Davies as Stannis 's maester Cressen .

Maslow's hierarchy of needs

Maslow 's hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology proposed by Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper `` A Theory of Human Motivation '' in Psychological Review . Maslow subsequently extended the idea to include his observations of humans ' innate curiosity . His theories parallel many other theories of human developmental psychology , some of which focus on describing the stages of growth in humans . Maslow used the terms `` physiological '' , `` safety '' , `` belonging and love '' , `` esteem '' , `` self - actualization '' , and `` self - transcendence '' to describe the pattern through which human motivations generally move . The goal of Maslow 's Theory is to attain the sixth level or stage : self actualization needs .

Nevertheless , it was the first concert to be held at a major stadium and set records for attendance and revenue generation , demonstrating that outdoor concerts on a large scale could be successful and profitable , and led the Beatles to return to Shea for a successful encore on August 23 , 1966 . The attendance record stood until 1973 when it was broken by Led Zeppelin with 56,800 fans at Tampa Stadium .

Resident Evil 2

The music for Resident Evil 2 was composed by Masami Ueda , Shusaku Uchiyama and Syun Nishigaki , with one song ( The Underground Laboratory ) composed by Naoshi Mizuta . The compositions were meant to convey `` desperation '' as their underlying theme . In his role as lead composer , Ueda provided the motifs , while Uchiyama was responsible for the horror - themed music used for the investigation and movie scenes . The main theme of the score , a versatile three - note leitmotif , appears several times throughout the course of the story , being included in compositions such as `` Prologue '' , `` Raccoon City '' and `` The Third Malformation of G '' . Various musical styles , ranging from ambient horror music to industrial pieces , are used to represent the different environments of the game . For example , the streets of Raccoon City are emphasized with militaristic percussion - based music , while the police department features ominous piano underscores . Key events of the story are supported with orchestral and cinematic compositions -- a move that was inspired by blockbuster films .

Fred Flintstone physically resembles both the voice actor who played him , Alan Reed , and Jackie Gleason , whose series , The Honeymooners , inspired The Flintstones . The voice of Barney Rubble was provided by voice actor Mel Blanc , though five episodes during the second season ( the first , second , fifth , sixth , and ninth ) employed Hanna - Barbera regular Daws Butler while Blanc was incapacitated by a near - fatal car accident . Blanc was able to return to the series much sooner than expected , by virtue of a temporary recording studio for the entire cast set up at Blanc 's bedside . Blanc 's portrayal of Barney had changed considerably after the accident . In the earliest episodes , Blanc had used a much higher pitch to the point of portraying Barney as a smart - aleck . After his recovery from the accident , Blanc used a deeper voice , quite similar to the voice of the Abominable Snowman he performed in other cartoons , and was shown as somewhat dopier than before .

`` Mortimer Mouse '' had been Disney 's original name for the character before his wife , Lillian , convinced him to change it , and ultimately Mickey Mouse came to be .

Mickey Mouse

In the spring of 1928 , Disney asked Ub Iwerks to start drawing up new character ideas . Iwerks tried sketches of various animals , such as dogs and cats , but none of these appealed to Disney . A female cow and male horse were also rejected . They would later turn up as Clarabelle Cow and Horace Horsecollar . A male frog was also rejected . It would later show up in Iwerks ' own Flip the Frog series . Walt Disney got the inspiration for Mickey Mouse from a tame mouse at his desk at Laugh - O - Gram Studio in Kansas City , Missouri . In 1925 , Hugh Harman drew some sketches of mice around a photograph of Walt Disney . These inspired Ub Iwerks to create a new mouse character for Disney . `` Mortimer Mouse '' had been Disney 's original name for the character before his wife , Lillian , convinced him to change it , and ultimately Mickey Mouse came to be . The actor Mickey Rooney claimed that , during his Mickey McGuire days , he met cartoonist Walt Disney at the Warner Brothers studio , and that Disney was inspired to name Mickey Mouse after him . This claim , however , has been debunked by Disney historian Jim Korkis , since at the time of Mickey Mouse 's development , Disney Studios had been located on Hyperion Avenue for several years , and Walt Disney never kept an office or other working space at Warner Brothers , having no professional relationship with Warner Brothers , as the Alice Comedies and Oswald cartoons were distributed by Universal .

University of Maryland, College Park

On November 29 , 1912 , a fire destroyed the barracks where the students were housed , all the school 's records , and most of the academic buildings , leaving only Morrill Hall untouched . There were no injuries or fatalities , and all but two students returned to the university and insisted on classes continuing . Students were housed by families in neighboring towns until housing could be rebuilt , although a new administration building was not built until the 1940s . A large brick and concrete compass inlaid in the ground designates the former center of campus as it existed in 1912 .

The curse had been such a part of Boston culture that when a `` reverse curve '' road sign on Longfellow Bridge over the city 's busy Storrow Drive was graffitied to read `` Reverse The Curse '' , officials left it in place until after the Red Sox won the 2004 Series . After the Red Sox won the last game of the World Series that year , the road sign was edited to read `` Curse Reversed '' in celebration .

Bournemouth

Before it was founded in 1810 by Lewis Tregonwell , the area was a deserted heathland occasionally visited by fishermen and smugglers . Initially marketed as a health resort , the town received a boost when it appeared in Augustus Granville 's 1841 book , The Spas of England . Bournemouth 's growth truly accelerated with the arrival of the railway and it became a recognised town in 1870 . Historically part of Hampshire , it joined Dorset with the reorganisation of local government in 1974 . Since 1997 , the town has been administered by a unitary authority , meaning it is independent of Dorset County Council , although it remains part of that ceremonial county .

Although unused , the death penalty remained a legally defined punishment for certain offences such as treason until it was completely abolished in 1998 .

Capital punishment in the United Kingdom

Capital punishment in the United Kingdom was used from ancient times until the second half of the 20th century . The last executions in the United Kingdom were by hanging , and took place in 1964 , prior to capital punishment being abolished for murder ( in 1965 in Great Britain and in 1973 in Northern Ireland ) . Although unused , the death penalty remained a legally defined punishment for certain offences such as treason until it was completely abolished in 1998 . In 2004 the 13th Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights became binding on the United Kingdom , prohibiting the restoration of the death penalty for as long as the UK is a party to the Convention .

St James's Palace

Built by King Henry VIII on the site of a leper hospital dedicated to Saint James the Less , the palace was secondary in importance to the Palace of Whitehall for most Tudor and Stuart monarchs . The palace increased in importance during the reigns of the early Georgian monarchy , but was displaced by Buckingham Palace in the late - 18th and early - 19th centuries . After decades of being used increasingly for only formal occasions , the move was formalised by Queen Victoria in 1837 . Today the palace houses a number of official offices , societies and collections and all ambassadors and high commissioners to the United Kingdom are still accredited to the Court of St James 's .

Northeastern United States

Using the Census Bureaus definition of the northeast , the region includes nine states : they are Maine , New York , New Jersey , Vermont , Massachusetts , Rhode Island , Connecticut , New Hampshire , and Pennsylvania . The region is often subdivided into New England ( the six states east of New York ) and the Mid-Atlantic states ( New York , New Jersey , and Pennsylvania ) . This definition has been essentially unchanged since 1880 and is widely used as a standard for data tabulation . However , the Census Bureau has acknowledged the obvious limitations of this definition and the potential merits of a proposal created after the 1950 census that would include changing regional boundaries to include Delaware , Maryland , and Washington , D.C. with the Mid-Atlantic states , but ultimately decided that `` the new system did not win enough overall acceptance among data users to warrant adoption as an official new set of general - purpose State groupings . The previous development of many series of statistics , arranged and issued over long periods of time on the basis of the existing State groupings , favored the retention of the summary units of the current regions and divisions . '' The Census Bureau confirmed in 1994 that it would continue to `` review the components of the regions and divisions to ensure that they continue to represent the most useful combinations of States and State equivalents .

The ALU performs operations such as addition , subtraction , and operations such as AND or OR .

Microprocessor

A minimal hypothetical microprocessor might only include an arithmetic logic unit ( ALU ) and a control logic section . The ALU performs operations such as addition , subtraction , and operations such as AND or OR . Each operation of the ALU sets one or more flags in a status register , which indicate the results of the last operation ( zero value , negative number , overflow , or others ) . The control logic retrieves instruction codes from memory and initiates the sequence of operations required for the ALU to carry out the instruction . A single operation code might affect many individual data paths , registers , and other elements of the processor .

The airline manufacturer Boeing entered into the in - flight - connectivity industry in 2000 and 2001 with an offshoot called Connexion by Boeing . The service was designed to provide in - flight broadband service to commercial airlines ; Boeing built partnerships with United Airlines , Delta , and American . By 2006 , however , the company announced it was closing down its Connexion operation . Industry analysts cited technology , weight , and cost issues as making the service unfeasible at the time . The Connexion hardware that needed to be installed on an aircraft , for example , weighed nearly 1,000 pounds ( 450 kg ) , which added more `` drag '' ( a force working against the forward movement of the plane ) and weight than was tolerable for the airlines .

The region of the chromosome at which a particular gene is located is called its locus .

Gene

The total complement of genes in an organism or cell is known as its genome , which may be stored on one or more chromosomes . A chromosome consists of a single , very long DNA helix on which thousands of genes are encoded . The region of the chromosome at which a particular gene is located is called its locus . Each locus contains one allele of a gene ; however , members of a population may have different alleles at the locus , each with a slightly different gene sequence .
