Money 
 Money, also sometimes called currency, can be defined as anything that people use to buy goods and services.
Money 
 When people changed from trading in things like, for example, cows and wheat to using money instead, they needed things that would last a long time.
Money 
 The Lydian coins were made of a weighed amount of precious metal and were stamped with a picture of a lion.
Money 
 In some parts of the world, different things have been used as money, like clam shells or blocks of salt.
Money 
 If someone own cows, and wants to trade for only "half a cow's worth" of wheat, he probably does not want to cut his cow in half.
Money 
 But if he sells his cow for money, and buys wheat with money, he can get exactly the amount he wants.
Money 
 So if a person trades cows for wheat, he might have a hard time arguing over how much wheat each cow is worth.
Money 
 It is easier to add up and count money, than to add up the value of different cows or amounts of wheat.
Money 
 Later, after coins had been used for hundreds of years, paper money started out as a promise to pay in coin, much like an "I.O.U." note.

Multiplication 
 Multiplication is the third operation in math, after addition which is the first, and subtraction which is the second.
Multiplication 
 With natural numbers, multiplication gives the number of tiles in a rectangle, where one of the two numbers equals the number of tiles on one side, and the other number equals the number of tiles on the other side.
Multiplication 
 With real numbers, multiplication gives the area of a rectangle where the first number is the same as the size of one side, and the second number is the same as the size of the other side.
Multiplication 
 For example, three multiplied by five is the total of five threes added together, or the total of three fives.
Multiplication 
 Mathematicians refer to the two numbers to be multiplied as "coefficients", or "multiplicand" and "multiplicator" separately (where Multiplicand × multiplicator = product).
Multiplication 
 Multiplication between numbers is said to be commutative—when the order of the numbers does not influence the value of the product.
Multiplication 
 This is true for the integers (whole numbers), e.g. 4 × 6 is the same as 6 × 4, and also for the rational numbers (fractions), and for all the other real numbers (representable as a field in the continuous line), and also for complex numbers (numbers representable as a field in the plane).
Multiplication 
 However, it is not true for quaternions (numbers representable as a ring in the four-dimensional space), vectors or matrices.
Multiplication 
 The definition of multiplication as repeated addition provides a way to arrive at a set-theoretic interpretation of multiplication of cardinal numbers.
Multiplication 
 Notice that the blue dot in the blue segment of length 3 is placed at position 1, and the blue segment is scaled so that this dot is placed at the end of the red segment (of length 2).
Multiplication 
 For multiplication by any X, the blue dot will always start at 1 and end at X. This works even if X is smaller than 1, or negative.
Multiplication 
 Teachers usually require their pupils to memorize the table of the first 9 numbers when teaching multiplication, so that more complex multiplication tasks can be performed.

Islamic world 
 When they do things together as Muslims, they are the "umma", which means "community" referring to all of the believers.
Islamic world 
 The faith emphasizes unity and defense of fellow Muslims, so it is common for these nations to cooperate.
Islamic world 
 Recent conflicts in the Muslim World have sometimes spread because of this desire to cooperate (see below).
Islamic world 
 284.4 million Muslims in the Arab League including Iraq (with about 15 million Shia, 60% of the population)
Islamic world 
 48.5 million Muslims in Central Asia - in Azerbaijan, Uzebekistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan - formerly republics of the Soviet Union.
Islamic world 
 133.3 million Muslims in India (included Jammu and Kashmir) - the world's largest minority population
Islamic world 
 Islamic law exists in many variations - in Arabic it is called shariah - five schools of which were created centuries ago.
Islamic world 
 These are the classical fiqh: the Hanafi school from India, Pakistan and Bangaladesh, West Africa, Egypt, the Maliki in North Africa and West Africa, the Shafi in Malaysia and Indonesia, the Hanbali in Arabia, and Jaferi in Iran and Iraq - where the majority is Shia.
Islamic world 
 Islam has a method for doing this, al-urf and ijtihad are the words to describe this method, but they have not been used in a long time, and few people are trusted enough to use them to make new laws.
Islamic world 
 So, in most of the Muslim world, people are very conservative, especially about alcohol, adultery, abortion and women working in jobs where they are used to lure customers.
Islamic world 
 Many in these movements call themselves Islamists, which also sometimes describes more militant Islamic groups.
Islamic world 
 Some of these groups are called terrorists because they attack civilians of other non-Muslim nations, to make a political point.
Islamic world 
 Israel is very unpopular in the Muslim world, because of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the way that the state of Israel came into being in 1948 which many Arabs thought was unfair.
Islamic world 
 Jewish groups also cooperate with Arabs in the West Bank, where Neturei Karta (anti-Zionist orthodox Jewish) leader Rabbi Mosche Hirsch served as the Minister for Jewish Affairs in the Fatah before there was a Palestinian Authority.
Islamic world 
 In that year, Egypt made peace with Israel, Iran became an Islamic state after a revolution, and there was an invasion of Afghanistan by the Soviet Union.
Islamic world 
 By 2001 the Soviet Union was gone, Jordan had also made peace with Israel, and on September 11, 2001 there were major attacks on the U.S. - which most people believe were made to drive the United States out of the Muslim world, especially Saudi Arabia.
Islamic world 
 The 2001 invasion of Afghanistan and 2003 invasion of Iraq are called part of a War on Terrorism by the United States.
Islamic world 
 After the invasion, the Islamic parties won more seats, and a majority of Muslims polled in many nations expressed support for Osama bin Laden and said he would "do the right thing".
Islamic world 
 Olivier Roy is a French scholar who thinks that this does not express support for al-Qaeda or militant Islam but opposing colonialism and what many Muslims call racism - favourable treatment for Jews especially those living in West Bank settlements, many of whom have American or British passport, and which the United Nations says have no right to live there.
Islamic world 
 In 1973 to protest U.S. support for Israel there was an oil embargo which caused the 1973 energy crisis.
Multiverse 
 A multiverse is the theory of a conjectured set of multiple possible universes, including ours, which make up reality.
Multiverse 
 The cosmological multiverse tries to explain why the universe we observe i.e. ''our universe'' seems so welcoming to the emergence of life.
Multiverse 
 In a multiverse a vast number of universes are randomly created and some happen to favour life emerging there.
Multiverse 
 Many inhospitable universes would also have been created, but there would be no life there to observe their existence.
Multiverse 
 The quantum multiverse is another version in which our universe splits into alternative futures with every quantum event.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 The mechanistic paradigm, also known as the Newtonian paradigm, assumes that things in the environment around humans are more like machines than like life.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 In fact, both the particle and wave view are required to explain everything light does, but are rarely presented as equals.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Many physics students graduate fully understanding the hydrogen bomb but having no clear idea of how musical instruments work.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 In astrophysics it assumes that the universe is like clockwork and works on its own without our choice making any difference - this fits relativity but is not easy to combine with quantum mechanics.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 In cosmology it accepts models of our universe more easily if reject the continuous creation of matter, energy or any new "other universes".
Mechanistic paradigm 
 In chemistry it assumes that molecules are like building blocks, and have no unpredictable or strange and unique effects when combined.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 This is the basic assumption of mechanosynthesis which some scientists think will create a molecular assembler.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 In biology it assumes that everything about life - all of biochemistry - is predictable from chemistry and physics.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Believers tend to regard ecology and psychology as "less scientific" than physics, chemistry and biology.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Believers may reject ideas like psychoneuroimmunology, Gaia philosophy or Fecund universes for no scientific reason, simply because these theories assume "higher level phenomena" sometimes drive lower levels.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 For instance, they may want to always see things as made of smaller, even invisible, parts that no one can see or prove is real - like in string theory.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 For this reason, when they work in psychology, they may prefer theories like behaviorism that deny free will and try to explain human behaviour as a function of biology.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 This lets them explain inaccuracies in mechanistic theories as being due to an imperfection in human ability to reason, instead of imperfections in math itself.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Believers in this paradigm sometimes say that those who do not believe in it are following a cognitive paradigm - but almost no one uses this term, since it is redundant - cognitive science is already accepted as the most basic idea in the philosophy of science.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 But mechanists reject some of the ideas of cognitive scientists, like cognitive science of mathematics.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Mechanistic thinking also assumes that philosophy of perception is much less important than cognitive scientists say it is - that humans and their beliefs and equipment do not generally add a lot of bias to a scientific theory.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Thomas Kuhn said otherwise, that these things matter, and that the major assumptions of science, can shift drastically.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Later he used other words to describe the assumptions and beliefs, like mind-set, but the word "paradigm" is still used.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Sometimes those who believe in neoclassical economics and also in the mechanistic paradigm say they "seek to unify physics and economics," as if people and particles behaved as two examples of the same kind of thing.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Technology is often easier to make if people accept a mechanistic paradigm - but it may be harder to say why it does not work, if one believes in these ideas.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 For instance, creating diagnostic trees might be easier if one works from experience, not from an idea of how a technology should or must work.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 A controversial idea is that mechanistic ideas are just an older idea called scholasticism, with more mathematics.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Another controversial idea is that scientism, belief in science as if it were a religion or ethical tradition, comes from this paradigm.
Mechanistic paradigm 
 Most scientists who are mechanistic do not say they see science as a guide to ethics, but try to keep them separate.
MediaWiki 
 MediaWiki is designed to be run on a large web server farm for a website that gets millions of hits per day.
MediaWiki 
 MediaWiki is a very powerful, scalable software and a feature-rich wiki implementation, that uses PHP to process and display data stored in its MySQL database.
MediaWiki 
 Pages use MediaWiki's Wikitext format, so that users without knowledge of XHTML or CSS can edit them easily.
MediaWiki 
 When a user submits an edit to a page, MediaWiki writes it to the database, but without deleting the previous versions of the page, thus allowing easy reverts in case of vandalism or spamming.
MediaWiki 
 For large wikis with lots of users, MediaWiki supports caching and can be easily coupled with Squid proxy server software.
MediaWiki 
 Because MediaWiki is flexible, many websites that want people to contribute information use MediaWiki rather than other types of wiki software.
MediaWiki 
 In MediaWiki, a system administrator can choose to install extensions which are provided on the main MediaWiki website.
MediaWiki 
 Some are from the MediaWiki developers, while others are from programmers from all around the world.
MediaWiki 
 For example, the Makesysop extension is an extension to promote a user into an administrator or a bureaucrat.
MediaWiki 
 In the default installation of MediaWiki, the software has 17 namespaces(18 actually, but one does not have a namespace), namely:
MediaWiki 
 As MediaWiki is a complex software, there would always be bugs in the software, especially for new extensions.
MediaWiki 
 Therefore, Wikimedia has created a Bugzilla website for people who see a bug to tell the developers of MediaWiki.
MediaWiki 
 Some extensions of MediaWiki use the Wikimedia Bugzilla, while some just use the talk pages of the extension page.
First language 
 A first language (also mother language, mother tongue, native language, arterial language, or L1) often means the language that a person learns first.
First language 
 Sometimes, but not often, first language means the language that a person speaks best (the second language is then spoken less well than the first language, etc.).
Mustache 
 In the modern world, many men shave part or all of their mustaches, or cut their mustache so it does not get very long.
Mustache 
 A chin beard with no mustache is called a goatee, whilst a chin beard with a mustache is known as a Van Dyke.
Mustache 
 Some animals such as walruses also have hair like this, and people sometimes also call this hair a mustache.
Mile 
 The nautical mile was originally defined as one minute of arc along a line of longitude of the Earth.
Mile 
 Even in English-speaking countries that use the metric system (for example, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand), the mile is still used in many idioms.
Mile 
 "Give him an inch and he'll take a mile" – a corruption of "Give him an inch and he'll take an ell" (the person in question will become greedy if shown generosity)

 The Milky Way has three main parts:  a disk, where the Solar System is, a bulge at the core, and an outer halo all around it.
Milky Way 
 Its closest neighbour is the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, which is about 25,000 light years away from the Earth.
Milky Way 
 The Andromeda Galaxy is moving towards the Milky Way Galaxy, and will collide with it in about 3.75 billion years.
Milky Way 
 The stellar disk of the Milky Way Galaxy is about 200,000 light-years (9×1017 km) in diameter, and is considered to be, on average, about 1000 light years thick.
