Damnation 
 In Eastern Christian traditions (Eastern Orthodoxy and Oriental Orthodoxy), as well as some Western traditions, it is seen as a state of separation from God, a state into which all humans are born but against which Christ is the "Mediator" and "Great Physician".
Chester Bennington 
 He was interested in music since he was young and he liked mostly Depeche Mode and Stone Temple Pilots.
Chester Bennington 
 After that, the vice president of A&R at Zomba Music in Los Angeles, offered Bennington an audition with Linkin Park.
Chester Bennington 
 In spite of the success in the early 2000s, Bennington has had personal problems outside of the public interest.
Chester Bennington 
 Bennington committed suicide by hanging himself on July 20, 2017 at his home in Palos Verdes Estates, California at the age of 41, the day on what would have been Chris Cornell's 53rd birthday who also committed suicide.

SCSI 
 SCSI is a set of standards for physically connecting and transferring data between computers and peripheral devices, such as a hard drive or CD or DVD drive.
SCSI 
 SCSI stands for Small Computer System Interface, although the "small" is historic; SCSI is used on both large and small computers.
SCSI 
 At present there are hard disks, optical drives, tape adapter units, ZIP drives, scanners and printers using SCSI.
SCSI 
 Host adapter has to be in connection with to assign system resources (addresses I/O, IRQ, DMA, reserved memory).
SCSI 
 With 8-bit data width, the parallel SCSI bus can be connected to 8 devices (used a 50 pin connector); with 16 bits, the SCSI bus can be connected to 16 devices.
SCSI 
 In addition to the parallel SCSI interface, there are also other interfaces that use the SCSI protocol but use different cables.
SCSI 
 Cable is usually Ethernet but can be any medium capable of carrying TCP/IP traffic, including wireless networks.
Musical form 
 The word showing the musical genre will show things such as: whether the music is for an orchestra to play and whether or not there is a soloist as well, or whether it is a piece for one instrument on its own.
Musical form 
 It may give an idea of whether it is likely to be a long piece or a short piece, or whether it has several movements.
Musical form 
 The form of a piece of music may, for example, be an “ABA” form, which means that there is the first part of the piece (which we can call part “A”), then something different happens (which we can call part “B”), and finally part “A” comes back again.
Musical form 
 There are many other ways of planning a piece of music, e.g. in jazz there is the twelve bar blues (in which the music is based on a repeated pattern of chords that last 12 bars, or in classical music there is sonata form which can often be the plan of a movement lasting anything from five minutes (as in the early Classical symphonies) to half an hour (as in some of Mahler’s symphonies).
Electric Gardens 
 Electric Gardens Festival, sometimes called Electric Gardens, 'EGFestival', 'EGFest', or 'EG', is a medium sized music festival at Mount Ephraim, Faversham in Kent.
Near East 
 The name of the Near East comes from its position to the east of Europe and to the west of the Middle East and the Far East.
Near East 
 In the past, the Balkan Peninsula, south-west Asia, and northern Africa were part of the Near East as well.
Near East 
 The term Near East came into use in the 1890s, when European powers had to do with two critical situations in the "east".
Near East 
 British archaeologist D.G. Hogarth published The Nearer East in 1902, which helped to define the term and its extent, including Albania, Montenegro, southern Serbia and Bulgaria, Greece, Egypt, all the Ottoman lands, the entire Arabian peninsula, and western parts of Iran.
Collina d'Oro 
 Collina d'Oro (called Gold Hill in English) is a municipality of the district Lugano in the canton of Ticino in Switzerland.
Far East 
 It became used in the English language during the period of the British Empire for lands to the east of British India.
Far East 
 Before World War I, the Near East meant relatively nearby lands of the Ottoman Empire, Middle East northwestern South Asia and Central Asia, and Far East countries along the western Pacific Ocean and countries along the eastern Indian Ocean.
Far East 
 Many European languages have analogous terms, such as the French , Spanish , Portuguese , German , Italian , and Dutch .
Far East 
 Far East is never used for the culturally Western nations of Australia and New Zealand, which lie even farther to the east of Europe than much of East Asia.

Philosophy of science 
 Philosophers who are interested in science study how knowledge is built up by scientists, and what makes science different from other activities.
Philosophy of science 
 However, during the twentieth century, science produced many ideas which were nothing like common sense, like general relativity.
Philosophy of science 
 The demarcation problem refers to the distinction between science and non-science (like pseudoscience).
Philosophy of science 
 No solution to the problem has had full agreement among philosophers; some of them think the problem is insoluble or uninteresting.
Philosophy of science 
 It was clear from this that, although falsifiability was important, it could not be a simple way to distinguish science from non-science.
Philosophy of science 
 But objectivity is very hard to define, and whether science really is objective is open to question.
Philosophy of science 
 There were thousands of published observations, and Darwin showed that sense could be made of the observations.
Philosophy of science 
 In a natural history science (such as biology, geology or astronomy), one of the main jobs of science is to explain what has happened and what is seen.
Philosophy of science 
 A clear example was the prediction of Einstein that a source of gravity (such as a star) would bend light passing nearby.
Philosophy of science 
 An expedition was organised in 1919 to record the positions of stars around the Sun during a solar eclipse.
Philosophy of science 
 It showed that the positions of the stars close to the Sun were changed slightly from their normal expected positions.
Philosophy of science 
 The observation would not have been made but for the theory, and then the observation was convincing evidence in favour of the theory.
Philosophy of science 
 Since then, many more tests have been made of Einstein's ideas, and all have been consistent with his theory.
Philosophy of science 
 According to common sense, science begins with observations: all scientific knowledge come from the facts of experience.
Philosophy of science 
 As shown by the Einstein example, where a theory led the other way round, the model does not fit much of science.
Philosophy of science 
 For example, to test Newton's Law of Gravitation in our solar system, one needs information about the masses and positions of the Sun and all the planets.
Philosophy of science 
 Famously, the failure to predict the orbit of Uranus in the 19th century did not lead to the rejection of Newton's Law.
Philosophy of science 
 Instead, it lead to the rejection of the hypothesis that there are only seven planets in our solar system.
Philosophy of science 
 But there is a problem in figuring out what that something is: a missing planet, badly calibrated test equipment, an unsuspected curvature of space, etc.
Philosophy of science 
 One consequence of the Duhem-Quine thesis is that any theory can be made compatible with any empirical observation by the addition of extra (ad hoc) hypotheses.
Philosophy of science 
 This led Karl Popper, to reject naïve falsification in favor of 'survival of the fittest', or most falsifiable, of scientific theories.
Philosophy of science 
 However, this does not necessarily imply that all theories are of equal value, because scientists often use guiding principles such as Occam's Razor.
Philosophy of science 
 One result of this view is that specialists in the philosophy of science stress the requirement that observations made for the purposes of science be restricted to intersubjective objects.
Philosophy of science 
 That is, science is restricted to those areas where there is general agreement on the nature of the observations involved.
Philosophy of science 
 It is comparatively easy to agree on observations of physical phenomena, harder to agree on observations of social or mental phenomena, and difficult in the extreme to reach agreement on matters of theology or ethics (and thus the latter remain outside the normal purview of science).
Philosophy of science 
 Paul Feyerabend argued that no description of scientific method could possibly encompass all the approaches and methods used by scientists.
Philosophy of science 
 Feyerabend objected to prescriptive scientific method on the grounds that any such method would stifle and cramp scientific progress.
Philosophy of science 
 Thomas Kuhn denied that it is ever possible to isolate the hypothesis being tested from the influence of the theory in which the observations are grounded.
Philosophy of science 
 He argued that observations always rely on a specific paradigm, and that it is not possible to evaluate competing paradigms independently.
Philosophy of science 
 By "paradigm" he meant a  consistent "portrait" of the world, one that involves no logical contradictions and that is consistent with observations made from the point of view of the paradigm.
Philosophy of science 
 More than one such logically consistent construct can paint a usable likeness of the world, but there is no common ground from which to pit two against each other, theory against theory.
Philosophy of science 
 Instead, the question is which "portrait" is judged by some set of people to promise the most useful in terms of scientific "puzzle solving".
Philosophy of science 
 For Kuhn, the choice of paradigm was sustained by, but not ultimately determined by, logical processes.
Philosophy of science 
 The individual's choice between paradigms involves setting two or more "portraits" against the world and deciding which likeness is most promising.
Philosophy of science 
 In the case of a general acceptance of one paradigm or another, Kuhn believed that it represented the consensus of the community of scientists.
Philosophy of science 
 Acceptance or rejection of some paradigm is, he argued, a social process as much as a logical process.
Philosophy of science 
 According to Kuhn, a paradigm shift occurs when a number of observational anomalies (problems) in the old paradigm have made the new paradigm more useful.
Philosophy of science 
 That is, the choice of a new paradigm is based on observations, even though those observations are made against the background of the old paradigm.
Philosophy of science 
 A new paradigm is chosen because it does a better job of solving scientific problems than the old one.
Philosophy of science 
 The fact that observation is embedded in theory does not mean observations are irrelevant to science.
Philosophy of science 
 Scientific understanding derives from observation, but the acceptance of scientific statements is dependent on the related theoretical paradigm as well as on observation.
Volterra 
 In the middle ages it was an independent city until it was conquered by the Florentines and then the Medicis.
Volterra 
 The original Etruscan city walls remain in parts, and the remains of the Roman baths, aqueduct and amphitheatre (arena).
Dynamic random-access memory 
 DRAM is called dynamic (or active), because it must be refreshed all the time or it will lose the data which it is supposed to be storing.
Dynamic random-access memory 
 The capacitor slowly loses energy, and if the DRAM is not refreshed, in the end one or more of the capacitors will let so much energy out, that for example a 1 will become a 0, so data will be lost or corrupted.
Dynamic random-access memory 
 DRAM and SRAM lose the data when the power to them is turned off, unlike non-volatile random-access memory.
Touchpad 
 A touchpad (also called a trackpad) is a type of input device for computers that does the same things as a computer mouse.
Touchpad 
 It is made up of a flat, touch-sensitive surface which the user slides one or more fingers on to move the cursor on the screen.
Touchpad 
 Next to the touchpad are push-buttons that work just like mouse buttons, including left-clicking and right-clicking.
Touchpad 
 In some newer touchpads, there are no actual buttons, and clicking is done by pushing near the button of the touchpad itself.
Touchpad 
 They are mostly found on laptop computers because, when the user is travelling, sometimes he or she cannot use a mouse.
Touchpad 
 Besides laptops, touchpads are also more and more used on mobile devices with a GUI, including MP3 players (a well-known one being the iPod) and mobile phones (such as the BlackBerry).
Touchpad 
 However, touchpads on today's mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers have been replaced with the touchscreen, which is used much like a touchpad except the screen is built into the touch-sensitive surface itself so that no mouse cursor is needed.
Touchpad 
 New models of touchpads often do more things because they can respond to the pressure of more than one finger.
Touchpad 
 This is called multi-touch and makes it possible to do things like scroll though, zoom in and out, and rotate a page or part of the screen.
Touchpad 
 The user can change it in the settings section to the right-click of the mouse, if the user likes it better.
Fingerprint scanner 
 They are based on the oldest technique, that consists of placing your finger on a glass surface or a prism that is illuminated by a led diode.
Fingerprint scanner 
 When the ridges of fingerprints touch the surface, the light is absorbed, while between these crests a total reflection occurs.
Fingerprint scanner 
 In practice there are some difficulties with this technique: wet and dry fingers make very different images, and the system is sensitive to dust and dirt on the surface.
Fingerprint scanner 
 This system is also easy to cheat and if the skin is damaged, the fingerprint is not recognized correctly.
Fingerprint scanner 
 The recognition of the fingerprint of older people is also difficult to do because their skin may not be elastic enough.
Fingerprint scanner 
 The sensor is a silicon integrated circuit with a surface that is covered by a large number of transducer elements (or pixels), with a typical resolution of 500 dpi.
Fingerprint scanner 
 The capacitance between the electrodes, which forms a feedback path for an inverting amplifier, is reduced when the finger is applied to said surface: it is further reduced when it detects ridges and less reduced when it detects the space between them.
Fingerprint scanner 
 These sensors only work with normal healthy skins, they are not operative being used on skins with hard areas, calluses or scars.
Fingerprint scanner 
 It consists of tens of thousands of tiny pressure transducers that are mounted on the surface of the sensor.
Fingerprint scanner 
 An alternative design uses switches that are closed when pressed by a ridge, but that stay open when they are under a valley.
Fingerprint scanner 
 In this case the heat driven by the finger is detected, which is greater when there is a ridge than when there is a valley.
Fingerprint scanner 
 A silicon component has been developed with a matrix of pixels called "FingerChip", that is, "finger integrated circuit", each of which is covered with a layer of pyroelectric material in which a change in temperature translates into a change in the load distribution of its surface.
Fingerprint scanner 
 The image is in the gray scale that has the right quality even with the finger worn, with dirt, with grease or with humidity.
Fingerprint scanner 
 The sensor only has a narrow sensitive area, and generates a complete sequence of images, which can be reassembled, by means of a processor, in a complete image.
Fingerprint scanner 
 Other devices with built-in fingerprint sensors include USB hard drives, USB memory modules and card readers.
Fingerprint scanner 
 Sensors are increasingly used to secure financial transactions and change machines for "online" banking.
Fingerprint scanner 
 In the future, the owner's fingerprint will be stored securely on identity cards and credit cards and may also be used for authentication of emails using digital signatures.
Fingerprint scanner 
 Direct physical access to rooms and devices can also be ensured by coupling fingerprint sensors with door opening systems.
324 Bamberga 
 It was found by Johann Palisa on February 25, 1892 in Vienna, making it one of the last big (diameter over 200 km) asteroids found.
324 Bamberga 
 Apart from the near-earth asteroid Eros, it was the last asteroid which is ever easily visible with binoculars to be found.
324 Bamberga 
 Although its very high orbital eccentricity means its opposition magnitude varies a lot, at a rare opposition near perihelion Bamberga can reach a magnitude of +8.0, which is as bright as Saturn's moon Titan.
324 Bamberga 
 Such near-perihelion oppositions happen on a regular cycle every twenty-two years, with the last happening in 1991 and the next in 2013.
324 Bamberga 
 Its brightness at these rare near-perihelion oppositions makes Bamberga the brightest C-type asteroid, about one magnitude brighter than 10 Hygiea's maximum brightness of around +9.1.
324 Bamberga 
 At such an opposition Bamberga can in fact be closer to Earth than any main belt asteroid with magnitude above +9.5, getting as close as 0.78 AU.
324 Bamberga 
 For comparison, 7 Iris never comes closer than 0.85 AU and 4 Vesta never closer than 1.13 AU when it becomes visible to the naked eye in a pollution-free sky.
324 Bamberga 
 Overall Bamberga is the tenth brightest main belt asteroid after, in order, Vesta, Pallas, Ceres, Iris, Hebe, Juno, Melpomene, Eunomia and Flora.
324 Bamberga 
 Its high eccentricity (for comparison 36% higher than that of Pluto), though, means that at most oppositions other asteroids reach higher magnitudes.
324 Bamberga 
 An occultation of Bamberga was seen on 8 December, 1987, and gave a diameter of about 228 km, in agreement with IRAS results.

Giaches de Wert 
 Giaches de Wert (pronounce: JYA-kes de VERT) (born Flanders, 1535;  died Mantua,  6 May  1596) was a Flemish composer who lived and worked in Italy.
Giaches de Wert 
 In 1565 he went to work for the Gonzaga in Mantua and became choir master at the ducal chapel of S. Barbara where he stayed until 1592.
