pos: noun
tags: uncountable
usually
examples: Still, environmentalists look to the U.S., where drilling with fracking is now a “megatrend” and where thousands of wells dot the landscape in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Colorado. They worry about higher greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional natural gas—because of the energy used to get the gas—and water contamination.
There is strong resistance in much of Europe to fracking, the practice of forcing liquid and sand into wells to release trapped oil and gas. France has a ban on fracking, Germany has imposed a moratorium, and opposition has cropped up and sometimes delayed shale exploration in Eastern European countries like Romania and Poland.
Slowly, they marched toward a bigger role in the fracking industry. When competing Texas frackers looked to freeze the brothers out from the companies that distribute the sand needed to drill, the siblings opened their own sand quarry to thrive.
The fracking boom has been fuelled mostly by overheated investment capital, not by cash flow.
The criticisms were made in the wake of the government’s decision on Friday to impose a moratorium on fracking in the UK. A review published by the Oil and Gas Authority concluded it was impossible to predict the likelihood or scale of earthquakes triggered by fracking.
It has been driven by a remarkable new way of extracting money from human beings: call it “human fracking”. Just as petroleum frackers pump high-pressure, high-volume detergents into the ground to force a little monetisable black gold to the surface, human frackers pump high-pressure, high-volume detergent into our faces (in the form of endless streams of addictive slop and maximally disruptive user-generated content), to force a slurry of human attention to the surface, where they can collect it, and take it to market.

pos: noun

Senses:
gloss: The rectangular great hall in a Mycenaean building, usually supported with pillars.
pos: noun
tags: historical
examples: The megara faced north (“notebook north” equals true northeast) in the first court behind the archaic East Gate, similar in layout to their predecessors Megara 1 and 2 in the pre-Kimmerian East Court. Megaron C had gone through a period of use and a complete reconstruction before the Painted House was built.
The megaron is a hall building with an open-fronted porch, but this porch is not just any laterally confined space.
Probably he points out that the east room, used as oikos, is wider and shorter than the classical narrow and long megaron form. Although this house is interpreted as two megarons side by side, Akurgal [4] also states that the east wall of the space XIV is added later to the building, which means that the east part is not a megaron, but a rectangular room at the first construction phase.

pos: noun

Senses:
gloss: Of or relating to the work, or theory developed from the work, of German mathematician Bernhard Riemann, especially to Riemannian manifolds and Riemannian geometry.
pos: adj
tags: not-comparable
examples: where R is the Riemannian curvature of the metric g, regarded as an operatorname End(TM)-valued two form, and √ is the Pfaffian, which is an invariant polynomial defined on the Lie algebra of skew symmetric matrices in even dimensions.
As the preferred metrics applied to symplectic forms are Kähler metrics one could ask for the Riemannian structure which would make the cone with the metric #92;overlineg#61;dt²#43;t²ᵍ together with the symplectic form #92;omega into a Kähler manifold. Then #92;overlineg and #92;omega define a complex structure #92;overline#92;Phi. Alternatively, one could ask for a Riemannian metric g on M which would define a Kähler metric h on #92;mathcalZ via a Riemannian submersion.
2012, Yves Carriere, Appendix A: Variations on Riemannian Flows, Pierre Molino, Riemannian Foliations, Springer, page 217,
The object of this appendix is to give a summary of known results on 1-dimensional oriented Riemannian Foliations.
gloss: Relating to the musical theories of German theorist Hugo Riemann, particularly his theory of harmony, which is characterised by a system of "harmonic dualism".
pos: adj
tags: not-comparable
examples: And not only theory: most central European composers of this century were schooled in Riemannian doctrine of one type or another.
Or take, for example, the rehabilitation by late-twentieth-century North American theorists of Riemannian Tonnetze as a means to navigate the voice-leading intricacies of much chromatic and post-chromatic music.
The paper connects two notions originating from different branches of the recent mathematical music theory: the neo-Riemannian Tonnetz and the property of well-formedness from the theory of the generated scales.

pos: adj
examples: Recording for the Blind’s Texas Unit has been helping blind, dyslexic, and otherwise print-disabled Texans since 1973.
What emerged in March of 1993 was a report of “The Print Access Project,” which discussed the recent history and future technological options for providing access to print materials, newspapers in particular, for what has now become an accepted terminology: print-disabled people. The implication of this language is that not only do people with visual impairments have difficulty gaining access to print materials, but so do people with dyslexia and other learning disabilities and people with certain mobility and physical impairments.
[…] However, the Times, like so many other information-bearing Web sites, errs in a few small but critical ways in how they design their Web site, resulting in a frustrating experience for print-disabled people who use personal computers.
In traditional paper format, these forms may pose a problem for users that are print-disabled (blind or with low vision or dyslexia) or that can read but may have problems handling forms (such as users with spinal cord injuries).
