List of Ed, Edd n Eddy characters
Eddy 's Brother ( Terry Klassen ) is mentioned frequently throughout the series , mostly by Eddy , though his name is never revealed . Eddy mentions how his brother taught him much about how to scam , and to be a con artist , and throughout the series many of the children are shown to have a great fear and respect for him . He was previously an unseen character , but he finally makes an appearance in the movie Ed , Edd n Eddy 's Big Picture Show . Eddy 's brother at first seems to be everything the other kids imagined , but it turns out that all of the folklore surrounding him was made up by Eddy to impress the other kids , and in reality he is a sadistic individual who refers to Eddy as a `` pipsqueak '' and bullies him mercilessly , which ultimately caused Eddy to become who he is . He works at the `` Mondo a-Go Go '' amusement park , but his specific job is unknown .
Edward Augustus Freeman
Freeman involved himself in politics , was a follower of Gladstone , and approved the Home Rule Bill of 1886 , but objected to the later proposal to retain the Irish members at Westminster . To enter Parliament was one of his ambitions , and in 1868 he unsuccessfully contested Mid-Somerset . Foreign rather than domestic politics were his main interest . He expressed an antipathy for the Turks and was sympathetic with the smaller and subject nationalities of eastern Europe . He was prominent in the agitation which followed `` the Bulgarian atrocities '' of the April Uprising ; his speeches were often intemperate , and he was accused of uttering the words `` Perish India ! '' at a public meeting in 1876 . This , however , was a misrepresentation of his words . He was made a knight commander of the Order of the Saviour by the King of Greece , and also received an order from the Prince of Montenegro .

The elementary charge e is one of the fundamental physical constants and thus the accuracy of the value is of great importance . In 1923 , Millikan won the Nobel Prize in physics , in part because of this experiment .
List of Ed, Edd n Eddy characters
Nazz Van Bartonschmeer ( Tabitha St. Germain ; Jenn Forgie ; Erin Fitzgerald ) is a good - natured , sweet , mature yet somewhat ditzy , fashionable local girl who normally treats her peers ( including the Eds ) respectfully ; however , when antagonized she will react violently to the cause of her agitation or partake in harming the Eds as discipline for an alleged misdeed that they have committed . A majority of the male characters featured in the series are smitten with her , and an entire episode once chronicled their many failed attempts at wooing her . She also possesses a number of humorous eccentricities , such as the ability to yodel , substandard skills at playing a rather large tuba and is often depicted with poor table etiquette . Edd seems to be the Ed that Nazz is closest to , as he was the first character she 'd kissed in the series in `` The Day the Ed Stood Still '' , took him trick - or - treating in the Halloween special , and got him to dance with her at the school dance in `` May I Have this Ed ? '' . She appears to have a crush on Kevin , though he is mostly oblivious to this ; he favors his bike more . Although the most mature of the neighborhood kids , she occasionally displays traits of the stereotypical `` dumb blonde '' . She is presumably of Dutch descent , based on her surname .

''
Atom
In 1909 , Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden , under the direction of Ernest Rutherford , bombarded a metal foil with alpha particles to observe how they scattered . They expected all the alpha particles to pass straight through with little deflection , because Thomson 's model said that the charges in the atom are so diffuse that their electric fields could not affect the alpha particles much . However , Geiger and Marsden spotted alpha particles being deflected by angles greater than 90 ° , which was supposed to be impossible according to Thomson 's model . To explain this , Rutherford proposed that the positive charge of the atom is concentrated in a tiny nucleus at the center of the atom . Rutherford compared his findings to one firing a 15 - inch shell at a sheet of tissue paper and it coming back to hit the person who fired it .
Lifestyle (sociology)
The term was introduced by Austrian psychologist Alfred Adler with the meaning of `` a person 's basic character as established early in childhood '' , for example in his 1929 book `` The Case of Miss R . '' . The term was introduced in the 1950s as a derivative of that of style in modernist art , and the broader sense of `` way or style of living '' has been documented since 1961 . The term refers to a combination of determining intangible or tangible factors . Tangible factors relate specifically to demographic variables , i.e. an individual 's demographic profile , whereas intangible factors concern the psychological aspects of an individual such as personal values , preferences , and outlooks .
Easter Bunny
In his 1835 Deutsche Mythologie , Jacob Grimm states `` The Easter Hare is unintelligible to me , but probably the hare was the sacred animal of Ostara '' . This proposed association was repeated by other authors including Charles Isaac Elton and Charles J Billson . In 1961 Christina Hole wrote , `` The hare was the sacred beast of Eastre ( or Eostre ) , a Saxon goddess of Spring and of the dawn . '' The belief that Ēostre had a hare companion who became the Easter Bunny was popularized when it was presented as fact in the BBC documentary Shadow of the Hare ( 1993 ) .

ENTERPRISE ( CV - 6 ) , and deployed over Tarawa in the Gilbert Islands , in action against enemy Japanese forces on 26 November 1943 . When warnings were received of the approach of a large force of Japanese torpedo bombers , Lieutenant Commander O'Hare volunteered to lead a fighter section of aircraft from his carrier , the first time such a mission had been attempted at night , in order to intercept the attackers . He fearlessly led his three - plane group into combat against a large formation of hostile aircraft and assisted in shooting down two Japanese airplanes and dispersed the remainder . Lieutenant Commander O'Hare's outstanding courage , daring airmanship and devotion to duty were in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service . He gallantly gave his life for his country .
Electromagnetic radiation
Interference is the superposition of two or more waves resulting in a new wave pattern . If the fields have components in the same direction , they constructively interfere , while opposite directions cause destructive interference . An example of interference caused by EMR is electromagnetic interference ( EMI ) or as it is more commonly known as , radio - frequency interference ( RFI ) . Additionally , multiple polarization signals can be combined ( i.e. interfered ) to form new states of polarization , which is known as parallel polarization state generation .
Edith Bunker
Edith was most known for her shrill voice ( her trademark `` Oh , Aaaaaaaaaah - chie ! '' became very popular among viewers ) and her flighty demeanor . The latter character trait caused Archie to call her `` dingbat '' . However , Archie truly loved his wife and wanted what was best for both of them . Frequently , he would consult with her whenever something bothered him ( such as the episode , `` Archie and the KKK , '' where a distressed Archie asks Edith for advice on how to prevent a cross burning ) .

Our Lady of the Angels School fire
Despite Raymond 's visit to the rectory soon after 2 : 30 p.m. to spread the alert , there was an unexplained delay before the first telephone call from the rectory reached the fire department at 2 : 42 p.m. One minute later , a second telephone call was received from Barbara Glowacki , the owner of a candy store on the alley along the north wing . Glowacki had noticed flames in the northeast stairwell after a passing motorist , Elmer Barkhaus , entered her store and asked if a public telephone was available to call the fire department . Police initially thought this 61 - year - old man was a suspect in the blaze until Barkhaus voluntarily came forward and explained himself . Glowacki used her private telephone in her apartment behind the store to notify authorities .

The EISP ( Easter Island Statue Project ) conducted research and documentation on many of the moai on Rapa Nui and the artifacts held in museums overseas . The purpose of the project is to understand the figures ' original use , context , and meaning , with the results being provided to the Rapa Nui families and the island 's public agencies that are responsible for conservation and preservation of the moai . Other studies include work by Britton Shepardson and Terry L. Hunt and Carl P. Lipo .
Albuquerque, New Mexico
New Mexico 's dry climate brought many tuberculosis patients to the city in search of a cure during the early 20th century , and several sanitaria sprang up on the West Mesa to serve them .

Radioactive decay
( A theoretical process of positron capture , analogous to electron capture , is possible in antimatter atoms , but has not been observed , as complex antimatter atoms beyond antihelium are not experimentally available . Such a decay would require antimatter atoms at least as complex as beryllium - 7 , which is the lightest known isotope of normal matter to undergo decay by electron capture . )
Charles Dickens
Dickens disapproved of Roman Catholicism and 19th - century evangelicalism , and was critical of what he saw as the hypocrisy of religious institutions and philosophies like spiritualism , all of which he considered deviations from the true spirit of Christianity .

Glycolysis
With all of these pieces available by the 1930s , Gustav Embden proposed a detailed , step - by - step outline of that pathway we now know as glycolysis . The biggest difficulties in determining the intricacies of the pathway were due to the very short lifetime and low steady - state concentrations of the intermediates of the fast glycolytic reactions . By the 1940s , Meyerhof , Embden and many other biochemists had finally completed the puzzle of glycolysis . The understanding of the isolated pathway has been expanded in the subsequent decades , to include further details of its regulation and integration with other metabolic pathways .
Enzyme
To explain the observed specificity of enzymes , in 1894 Emil Fischer proposed that both the enzyme and the substrate possess specific complementary geometric shapes that fit exactly into one another . This is often referred to as `` the lock and key '' model . This early model explains enzyme specificity , but fails to explain the stabilization of the transition state that enzymes achieve . Induced

Conway thought the reporter was exaggerating , saying , `` I did n't appreciate the full extent of what was about to happen . Not even close . '' Rogers 's story eventually got 32.8 million unique visitors . Meanwhile , when Conway woke up the next morning , his inbox had so many emails about the dress that at first , he thought his email had been hacked , until he saw that the bulk were interview requests from major media organisations . `` I did 10 interviews and had to have a colleague take my class that day , '' said Conway .

Talk:Mode (statistics)
Also , I should mention that anybody searching for `` central tendency '' is likely a technical person not interested in most of the average article . They are interested in what all the different measures are to apply in some application they are building . I will in the next week or so break the redirect and start a new article if nobody persuades me otherwise . Jason Quinn ( talk ) 01 : 38 , 21 July 2008 ( UTC )
