The 40-40 club, which celebrates the achievement of 40 homeruns and 40 stolen bases, which has only been achieved by three players over the entire span of baseball.

Mol was first played in the 19th century in the town of Mol in Belgium, after which its name is named. There is a regional championship every year in the third week of October (unless it is a leap year, in which case it takes place on the second week, traditionally).

It is a game for two people, and is played with the right-index finger (known in the trade as the molar). The typical rally lasts for 10 seconds, in which both players try to touch the top side of the other person's molar - from the knuckle to the nail). Gwen Gladstone says in THE BELGIUM GAME, the only comprehensive outline of the rules and history of Mol in English, that it is closely related to fencing, but is considerably faster because the players have a very small range to move the molars about in (the arena) - and because at "professional" level, players can move the molars at speeds often exceeding 103 miles per hour.

Although the game has been played since the late 19th century, when it was believed to have been invented by a cobbler walking in the Lake District, the Annual Championships have only been played since 1972. The very first champion was Jean Musil; and other notable past champions of what Gladstone describes as "this noble sport" include: Jonathan Baby (1994, 96, 97), and Jabadad Shuru (1998). The first female player to win was Nichola Rabbit (1999), also the first British player to win, of the frew that there remain. She lives in North Norwood with her husband and 4 children.

Curl Ball was created in the late 1970s in a village just outside Porec in Croatia. The game remained fairly low key for the first few years, untill the first Curl Ball camphionships was hosted in the coastal village of Funtana, where the local team drew 3-2 with a team fromm the former Yugoslavia.

Among the sport's legends over the years, one name has dominated: Carl Beatle, who boasts six championship wins to his name. Carl's long career allowed him to develop the game to what we know it is today. He coined several now mainstream moves, such as the Baptist and the Bluffing Bind Man. Unfortunately his career was cut short by a freak accident, but he will be remembered by his peers as possibly the best Curl Ball player to grace the water's edge.

[edit] Sources

More information including the rules can be found in Carl Beatles's latest book "Curl Ball, from the water's edge" (1997).

Rosamund Stanhope (1919-2005) is a British poet and teacher known for her exuberant use of esoteric and unusual words.

Born in 1919, the daughter of a German leather merchant who changed his name from Sternburg to Stanhope, Rosamund Stanhope grew up on the South Coast of England. She studied Drama and English, but worked as a radio mechanic during WW2.

She was not a prolific writer, trying both prose and verse, but she regularly had individual poems published in the arts press of the day, and published her first book in March 1962 at the Scorpion Press. Shortly after this she broke her spine in an accident, and thereafter suffered continuous ill health for many years.

She maintained her teaching position, however, and began publishing again in the 1990s, when her work was much admired. She released two collections of her poems through the Peterloo Press at this time, before dying in December 2005, aged 86.

The Forbidden Game trilogy is a book by L.J. Smith (Lisa Jane) about a girl named Jenny who has been watched for years by a shadow man named Julian, who fell in love with her at the age of five when she accidentally opened a closet that was holding all of the Shadow Men in.

In the first book, The Hunter, Julian has finally decided to claim Jenny as his own, but to do this; a game must be played first. Jenny buys the game for a party thinking that it's just a game, but it ends up that once everything is set up, the game becomes real. Jenny and her friends each have to defeat their own nightmares, but if they lose than their souls belong to Julian. Dee, Audrey, Mike, Zach, Jenny, and Tom, Jenny's boyfriend, make it through their nightmares, but Summer failed to get through her's. To get everyone else out, Jenny promises herself to Julian before locking him back into the closet. Everyone but Summer gets out, but the ring Julian gave her is still there. The group wants to burn the box, which holds the game in it, but two guys break in and steal the box, which holds both the game and Jenny's ring, and quickly leave.

In the second book of the trilogy, The Chase, the group of friends has to explain about the disappearance of Summer, while trying to find the box that contains the game. Julian was still trapped in the closet, but there was a chance that the two boys that stole the game might let Julian out. All of the friends begin to have nightmares, and unnatural weird occurrences at school are happening in the daytime. Finally, when Jenny is at the senior prom, Julian appears. Julian gives Jenny a chance to break free, but the stakes were the same as the last game. This time the game is "Goats and Tigers", where Julian is the tiger, and the friends are the goats trying to hide from him; for the goats to win, they have to find the Tiger's base. One by one Jenny's friends start disappearing, and Jenny is the only one left. She manages to find the base by tricking Julian. She finds her friends, but to get out they have to pass through a wall of flames. Everyone makes it but Tom and Zach, and to get them back again, along with Summer, Mike, Dee, Audrey, and Jenny have to find a way into the Shadow World.

In the last of the three, The Kill, the remaining four run away to Monessen, the place where Jenny's grandfather had lived before being taken away by the Shadow Men. They believed that there was a portal to the Shadow World there, and there was. When the four enter the Shadow World, they find themselves in a closed amusement park. After looking and experiencing some of the attractions, which are made to be like nightmares, Julian appears, and he tells them that if they find three Spanish doubloons in the amusement park, everyone will get to go free. The four friends search through the amusement park and find Summer, who is still alive. They also find three other souls being kept by the Shadow Men, the two boys who stole the game, and Jenny's grandfather who had been taken when Jenny opened the closet door. They set the three free without knowing the consequences, and they find the three doubloon coins to save Zach and Tom. Right as they all are leaving, the Shadow Men appear and say that the group has taken the souls, which were theirs. The older Shadow Men want to take Jenny's soul, but Julian says that he will take her place. The seven leave with some despair on Jenny's part, and get back home. When questioned what would happen if the Shadow Men brought Julian back to life, Jenny wished him well.

Characters:

Julian: The youngest of the Shadow Men, an ancient race that lived in darkness. He fell in love with Jenny when she opened the closet, which the Shadow Men had been captured in by her grandfather, and watched Jenny for countless years making sure that nothing bad ever happened to her.

Jenny: The "Light to his darkness". She has a natural goodness around her and fought her way through challenges to save both herself and her friends. Julian offered her is love which she refused until the end because of her love for her boyfriend, Tom.

Tom: The boyfriend. He is best described as an athletic Jock. He has been dating Jenny since the second grade and will do practically anything to keep her safe.

Zach: Zach is Jenny's cousin who is into photography. He has problems with his father because Zach represents all that is new and modern while his father stays with tradition.

Mike: He is described as the lovable one in the bunch and is going out with Audrey. His father is a Science fiction novelist, which makes Mike know about a lot of things that are happening.

Audrey: Audrey is the newest one in the group because her father being an ambassador moved them around different countries for many years. She knows many things about other places and myths, but she still has a conflicting nature with Dee.

Dee: Dee holds the confidence and strength in the group and is described as an Egyptian princess. Dee tries to stick with traditions and athletics while trying to avoid new high technology things because those are the only things that she thinks can defeat her.

Summer: She is the caring loving one in the group, but not much is told about her because of her disappearance in the first book, but throughout she has almost an entire town trying to find out what really happened to her.

By ocean dumping one understands the disposal of waste on the water. In many cases this concerns liquid waste, e.g. thinned sulphuric acid, or residues from the cleaning of ships and tanks. Most of it is regulated by organizations, for example the MARPOL. In Germany and the rest of the European Union ocean dumping isn’t allowed any more.

Document clustering is closely related to concept of data clustering. Document clustering is a more specific technique for unsupervised document organization, automatic topic extraction and fast information retrieval or filtering. For example, a web search engine often returns thousands of pages in response to a broad query, making it difficult for users to browse or to identify relevant information. Clustering methods can be used to automatically group the retrieved documents into a list of meaningful categories, as is achieved by Enterprise Search engines such as Northern Light and Vivisimo.
Example:
[FirstGov.gov], the official Web portal for the U.S. government uses document clustering to automatically organize its search results into categories. For example if a user submits “immigration” next to their list of results they will see categories for “Immigration Reform”, “Citizenship and Immigration Services”, “Employment”, “Department of Homeland Security”, and more.

"Illinois Jane and the Pyramid of Peril" is an adventure-comedy play by playwright Colorado Tolston, published by Pioneer Drama Service. The play features fictional adventure heroine Dr. Illinois Jane, cartographer extraordinaire, as she and her nerdy sidekick, Sid Knickerbock, search for the Elixir of Life that is hidden in the lost pyramid of Hatshepsut. In the process they must face the "odor-endowed villain" Pierre LeMalodeur who also seeks the Elixir, backed up by his two henchmen: Claude and Marcel, mime of evil. Other characters include Illinois' overbearing father, Dr. Thaddeus Jane, as well as Captain Nobeard, mighty pirate, and his first mate Tin Toe Terry, reasonably mighty pirate. While in many ways the play is a spoof of the Indiana Jones saga, it does contain its own unique elements and stands alone as its own story. A variety of clever, low-budget special effects add to the charm and humor (the highlight is the classic "fight on a moving vechicle").

"Illinois Jane" was premiered by The Hodge-Podge Theatre Company of Saint Paul, Minnesota and has been performed across the United States since its publication in 2005 by Pioneer Drama Service. It also made an appearance at the 2006 Minnesota Fringe Festival, produced by The Pauper's Theater. A video trailer for this production can be found online on Google Video.

Information retrieval methods and online search have been available since the late 1960s. It is with the popularization of World Wide Web that search and retrieval as a discipline has grown in importance and popularity. The interest in enterprise search spiked upward largely in part to the increase use of web search. Enterprise Search is the attempt to make certain types of content available to authorized employees, partners, customers or contractors associated with an organization. The end-users of these organizations needed a solution that would allow them to search their digital data residing on their personal computers, corporate web sites, subscription services, content management systems and departmental servers.

A simple definition of enterprise search states that it is a system that allows an administrator to identify specific content to be indexed, searched and displayed to authorized users. The core features can then be described as:

1) The technology to take a document, index the words in that document and configure that index such that a user can search it.

2) Administrative controls to allow a license to index certain documents and not others, and adjust the system so that the speed of indexing, query processing, relevancy ranking and myriad other attributes can be altered.

3) Logs to record user behavior; for example, the number of queries, the number of hits a document receives, the most frequently used search terms and dozens if not hundreds of other measures.

Outside of these core features the variation in functionality among leading enterprise search vendors is extensive including taxonomy tools, document clustering, data source connectors, guided navigation, entity extraction, semantic technologies and thousands of other extensions and features.

Creating a search index is a required step that takes place when a search engine is being used to crawl either the World Wide Web or inside a corporate, proprietary network or a personal computer. Indexing includes the processes associated with identifying the key words in a document. Once the key words are identified, pointers are created to them.

The indexing step can also perform a value-added process in order to create synonyms for words or concepts in a document, identify the specific topics discussed in a document and map the document into an enterprise taxonomy or classification schema. For example, a document may discuss a new technology without referencing a new product initiative, yet still be highly relevant for anyone interested in that initiative.

Indexing functions can include linguistic and semantic services that attempt to read and understand a document. These systems can create a synopsis of the document, identify and extract specific facts in a document, and examine the words and concepts in a document in order to modify the behavior of the indexing system itself. In general, indexing systems that rely on mathematics such as Bayesian logic can index content more quickly than systems that use linguistic and semantic processes. Systems that combine statistical and linguistic systems generally require more computational resources together than a system that uses a statistical approach to indexing.

" TELEAVIA, design also matters », this visionary motto appeared in 1963, way before Apple’s design revolution started. Thomson Company got the famous designer Roger Tallon to revolutionize the shape of TV sets. He later said to explain the trademark’s success and longevity: “It was the first time the shape, the function and the material absolutely intertwined”. Today, TELEAVIA is still an icon with TV models at the MOMA in NY and in other design museums around the world.

TIKTINER is a famous Designer from the French Riviera whose collections were distributed in France of course, but also in Europe, England and even New York.

For many decades TIKTINER embodied the « joie de vivre » garment from Cannes, St Tropez and Nice: casual and yet so chic. Enough chic to be on cover of magazines such as LIFE and ELLE. Two complete collections were created every year: blouses, swimsuits, coats and dresses, some of which were exclusively sold in Harrods London and Bergdorf Goodman New York.

In 2008 we will be celebrating the 100th anniversary of TIKTINER!

Young Gunz first came out in1999 in Bermuda, they started Djing public dances and different events. CEO Drew aka Skip brought the sound out along with chris aka Shady, Chris D aka chicken, Justin aka Snake and a couple of other guys in the click.

As years went by so did Young Gunz, they slowly got bigger and and slowly started to accumulate dubplates (professional artist bigging up a their sound) from locals, when they got their first forgien dubplate which was Sean Paul, it been one good thing after another since that and they have never stopped.

From 2002 to about the end of 2003 summer they really wasn't too much with the sound. Shady went off to school and Chicken started working full time snd left Drew by him self. That when Skip asked an up and comer at the time David aka Big D to join the sound. When he joined he soon linked up with a sound called Stalwart and been workin with them ever since. Both sounds teamed up and started playing every tuesday night on Bermynet (Bermuda's number one entertainment website and party organiser) and booking cruises at least once a month. Things were just getting started for the sound, when Henery aka Porta-G joined the family. they became stronger and were now getting forgien dubplates every week.

Young Gunz have been in a few sound clashes (Dj's busting out their dubplates in a music battle) and have done pretty good, and thats when summer 2004 came around and they were in the biggest sound clash of the summer. YoungGunz-Vs.-Rapid Fya-Vs.-Supatone. They finished second however the experience made them better. By then Scotty aka Round Head and Keegan aka Keebla had joined the sound thins were comming together even better now.

They are one of the few young sounds on Bermuda who are still going strong, they entertain the people by playing nice vibes all night and play what the people want to hear. They also play old songs if thats what the people want to hear.

Due to the running out of fresh water supplies, the World bank has supported the policy of water privatization. In 1998 the World Bank would not give a $25 million (US)loan to Cochabamba to improve water services unless it privatized its public water system, it was eventually sold to Bechtel who doubled water prices, making water bills account for over half of the average citizen's monthly wage. The loan that the World Bank granted was not allowed to subsidize the poor for water bills and this made the situation worse. On April 10 2000, hundreds of thousands of Bolivians marched to Cochabamba and in responce the government revoked Bechtel's water privatisation legislation, making it a victory for the thousands that couldn't afford to pay their water bills.

The Reykjavik City Museum (Árbæjarsafn) is the Reykjavik municipal museum and also the biggest Open Air Museum in Iceland. The Museum was founded in 1957, when the city authorities decided to preserve the old farmstead of Árbær which was located on the borders of Reykjavik. At the time there were plans to redevelop the City Centre of Reykjavik and the City authorities wanted to preserve examples of building around the farm. The first building was moved in 1961 and some 20 more buildings have been moved since. As of 2006 there are further plans to move houses to the site.

The purpose of the Museum is to give the public an insight into living conditions, work and recreations of the people of Reykjavik in earlier times. The Museum is opened from June till August, 10 – 17 every day. Special events are held during weekends and public holidays. During the winter months there are special guided tours by the staff Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays at 13.

Donald Shaw Ramsay was the pipe major. When he was 20, Donald Ramsay was the youngest pipe major of the british army. Since then he commanded the Edinburgh City Police Pipe Band who won the World Pipe Band Championship in 1950 and 1954 under his command. When he was in San Fransisco (due to an injury in the police force) he led the City of San Francisco Pipe Band to win the California Pipe Band Championship for the first time in history.

In 1964 the Invergordon Distillery Pipe Band were commanded to play for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. They were also commanded to play for the Queen's mother in 1966. The Pipe Major has played in for many royal families such as the Danish royal family.

Donald Ramsay first recruit was Drum Major, Alex Duthart, recognised for his Drumming throughout the world.

The Girandoni Air Rifle was a rifle designed by Bartholomäus Girandoni circa 1779. Also known as the Windbüchse, it was of the same basic size and shape as other muskets of the time, but was powered by compressed air instead of gun powder. It fired a 51 caliber ball, at a velocity similar to that of a modern 45 ACP, from a tubular amgazine with a capacity of 20 balls. With a full air resevoir in the buttstock the Girandoni Air Rifle had the capacity to shoot 30 shots. These balls were effective to aproximately 150 yards.

The Girandoni Air Rifle was in service with the Austrian army from 1780 to around 1815. The advantages of a high rate of fire, no smoke from propellants, and low muzzle report granted it initial acceptence, but it was eventually removed from service for several reasons. While the detachable air resevoir was capable of around 30 shots it took nearly 1500 pumps of a hand pump to pump those resevoirs. In addition, the weapon was very delicate and a small break could make it inoperable. Finally, it was very different from any other weapon of the time and any soldier using it needed to be highly trained.

The Girandoni Air Rifle was an important first. It was one of the first uses of a tubular magazine, the coil spring, and air compression for firearms. And, although it saw service for only 35 years, it was more advanced in design and technology then the Henry rifle which didn't arrive for another fifty years.

Templates Published by Juan Soulie Last update on May 16, 2006 at 10:28pm

Function templates Function templates are special functions that can operate with generic types. This allows us to create a function template whose functionality can be adapted to more than one variable type or class without repeating the code for each type. This is achieved through template parameters. A template parameter is a special kind of parameter that can be used to pass a type as parameter. These function templates can use these parameters as if they were regular types.

The format for declaring function templates with type parameters is:

template <class identifier> function_declaration; template <typename identifier> function_declaration;

The only difference between both prototypes is the use of either the keyword class or the keyword typename. Its use is indistinct since both expressions have exactly the same meaning and behave exactly the same way.

For example, to create a template function that returns the greater one of two objects we could use:

template <class myType> myType GetMax (myType a, myType b) {

return (a>b?a:b);

}

Here we have created a template function with myType as its template parameter. This template parameter represents a type that has not yet been specified, but that can be used in the template function as if it were a regular type. As you can see, the function template GetMax returns the greater of two parameters of this still-undefined type.

To use this function template we use the following format for the function call:

function_name <type> (parameters);

For example, to call GetMax to compare two integer values of type int we can write:

int x,y; GetMax <int> (x,y);

When the compiler encounters this call to a template function, it uses the template to automatically generate a function replacing each appearance of myType by the type passed as the actual template parameter (int in this case) and then calls it. This process is automatically performed by the compiler and is invisible to the programmer.

Here is the entire example:

// function template

1. include <iostream>

using namespace std;

template <class T> T GetMax (T a, T b) {

 T result;
 result = (a>b)? a : b;
 return (result);

}

int main () {

 int i=5, j=6, k;
 long l=10, m=5, n;
 k=GetMax<int>(i,j);
 n=GetMax<long>(l,m);
 cout << k << endl;
 cout << n << endl;
 return 0;

}

6

10

In this case we have used T as the template parameter name instead of myType because it is shorter and in fact is a very common template parameter name. But you can use any identifier you like.

In the example above we used the function template GetMax() twice. The first time with arguments of type int and the second one with arguments of type long. The compiler has instantiated and then called each time the appropriate version of the function.

As you can see, the type T is used within the GetMax() template function even to declare new objects of that type:

T result;

Therefore, result will be an object of the same type as the parameters a and b when the function template is instantiated with a specific type.

In this specific case where the generic type T is used as a parameter for GetMax the compiler can find out automatically which data type has to instantiate without having to explicitly specify it within angle brackets (like we have done before specifying <int> and <long>). So we could have written instead:

int i,j; GetMax (i,j);

Since both i and j are of type int, and the compiler can automatically find out that the template parameter can only be int. This implicit method produces exactly the same result:

// function template II

1. include <iostream>

using namespace std;

template <class T> T GetMax (T a, T b) {

 return (a>b?a:b);

}

int main () {

 int i=5, j=6, k;
 long l=10, m=5, n;
 k=GetMax(i,j);
 n=GetMax(l,m);
 cout << k << endl;
 cout << n << endl;
 return 0;

}

6

10

Notice how in this case, we called our function template GetMax() without explicitly specifying the type between angle-brackets <>. The compiler automatically determines what type is needed on each call.

Because our template function includes only one template parameter (class T) and the function template itself accepts two parameters, both of this T type, we cannot call our function template with two objects of different types as arguments:

int i; long l; k = GetMax (i,l);

This would not be correct, since our GetMax function template expects two arguments of the same type, and in this call to it we use objects of two different types.

We can also define function templates that accept more than one type parameter, simply by specifying more template parameters. For example:

template <class T, class U> T GetMin (T a, U b) {

 return (a<b?a:b);

}

In this case, our function template GetMin() accepts two parameters of different types and returns an object of the same type as the first parameter (T) that is passed. For example, after that declaration we could call GetMin() with:

int i,j; long l; i = GetMin<int,long> (j,l);

or simply:

i = GetMin (j,l);

even though j and l have different types. But the compiler can determine the apropriate instantiation anyway.

Class templates We also have the possibility to write class templates, so that a class can have members that use template parameters as types. For example: template <class T> class pair {

   T values [2];
 public:
   pair (T first, T second)
   {
     values[0]=first; values[1]=second;
   }

};

The class that we have just defined serves to store two elements of any valid type. For example, if we wanted to declare an object of this class to store two integer values of type int with the values 115 and 36 we would write:

pair<int> myobject (115, 36);

this same class would also be used to create an object to store any other type:

pair<float> myfloats (3.0, 2.18);

The only member function in the previous class template has been defined inline within the class declaration itself. In case that we define a function member outside the declaration of the class template, we must always precede that definition with the template <...> prefix:

// class templates

1. include <iostream>

using namespace std;

template <class T> class pair {

   T a, b;
 public:
   pair (T first, T second)
     {a=first; b=second;}
   T getmax ();

};

template <class T> T pair<T>::getmax () {

 T retval;
 retval = a>b? a : b;
 return retval;

}

int main () {

 pair <int> myobject (100, 75);
 cout << myobject.getmax();
 return 0;

}

100

Notice the syntax of the definition of member function getmax:

template <class T> T pair<T>::getmax ()

Confused by so many T's? There are three T's in this declaration. The first one is the template parameter. The second T refers to the type returned by the function. And the third T (the one between angle brackets) is also a requirement. It specifies that this function's template parameter is also the class template parameter.

Template specialization If we want to define a different implementation for a template when a specific type is passed as template parameter, we can declare a specialization of that template. For example, let's suppose that we have a very simple class called container that can store one element of any type and that it has just one member function called increase, that increases its value. But we find that when it stores an element of type char it would be more convenient to have a completely different implementation with a function member uppercase, so we decide to declare a class template specialization for that type:

// template specialization

1. include <iostream>

using namespace std;

template <class T> class container {

   T element;
 public:
   container (T arg) {element=arg;}
   T increase () {return ++element;}

};

template <> class container <char> {

   char element;
 public:
   container (T arg) {element=arg;}
   char uppercase ();

};

template <> char container<char>::uppercase() {

 if ((element>='a')&&(element<='z'))
 element+='A'-'a';
 return element;

}

int main () {

 container<int> myint (7);
 container<char> mychar ('j');
 cout << myint.increase() << endl;
 cout << mychar.uppercase() << endl;
 return 0;

}

8

J

This is the syntax used in the class template specialization:

template <> class container <char> { ... };

First of all, notice that we precede the class template name with template<>. This is a requirement in standard C++ for all template specializations, although some compilers, as an anachronism, support to declare template specialization without this prefix.

But more important than this prefix, is the <char> specialization parameter after the class template name. This specialization parameter itself identifies the type for which we are going to declare a template class specialization (char). Notice the differences between the generic class template and the specialization:

template <class T> class container { ... }; template <> class container <char> { ... };

The first line is the generic template, and the second one is the specialization.

When we declare specializations for a template class, we must also define all its members, because there is no inheritance of members from the generic template to the specialization.

Non-type parameters for templates Besides the template arguments that are preceded by the class or typename keywords , which represent types, templates can also have regular typed parameters, similar to those found in functions. As an example, have a look at this class template that is used to contain sequences of elements: // sequence template

1. include <iostream>

using namespace std;

template <class T, int N> class sequence {

   T memblock [N];
 public:
   void setmember (int x, T value);
   T getmember (int x);

};

template <class T, int N> void sequence<T,N>::setmember (int x, T value) {

 memblock[x]=value;

}

template <class T, int N> T sequence<T,N>::getmember (int x) {

 return memblock[x];

}

int main () {

 sequence <int,5> myints;
 sequence <double,5> myfloats;
 myints.setmember (0,100);
 myfloats.setmember (3,3.1416);
 cout << myints.getmember(0) << '\n';
 cout << myfloats.getmember(3) << '\n';
 return 0;

}

100

3.1416

It is also possible to set default values or types for class template parameters. For example, if the previous class template definition had been:

template <class T=char, int N=10> class sequence {..};

We could create objects using the default template parameters by declaring:

sequence<> myseq;

Which would be equivalent to:

sequence<char,10> myseq;

Templates and multiple-file projects From the point of view of the compiler, templates are not normal functions or classes. They are compiled on demand, meaning that the code of a template function is not compiled until an instantiation with specific template arguments is required. At that moment, when an instantiation is required, the compiler generates a function specifically for those arguments from the template. When projects grow it is usual to split the code of a program in different source code files. In these cases, the interface and implementation are generally separated. Taking a library of functions as example, the interface generally consists of declarations of the prototypes of all the functions that can be called. These are generally declared in a "header file" with a .h extension, and the implementation (the definition of these functions) is in an independent file with c++ code.

Because templates are compiled when required, this forces a restriction for multi-file projects: the implementation (definition) of a template class or function must be in the same file as its declaration. That means that we cannot separate the interface in a separate header file, and that we must include both interface and implementation in any file that uses the templates.

Since no code is generated until a template is instantiated when required, compilers are prepared to allow the inclusion more than once of the same template file with both declarations and definitions in a project without generating linkage errors.

Young Gunz first came out in1999 in Bermuda, they started Djing public dances and different events. CEO Drew aka Skip brought the sound out along with chris aka Shady, Chris D aka chicken, Justin aka Snake and a couple of other guys in the click.

As years went by so did Young Gunz, they slowly got bigger and and slowly started to accumulate dubplates (professional artist bigging up a their sound) from locals, when they got their first forgien dubplate which was Sean Paul, it been one good thing after another since that and they have never stopped.

From 2002 to about the end of 2003 summer they really wasn't too much with the sound. Shady went off to school and Chicken started working full time snd left Drew by him self. That when Skip asked an up and comer at the time David aka Big D to join the sound. When he joined he soon linked up with a sound called Stalwart and been workin with them ever since. Both sounds teamed up and started playing every tuesday night on Bermynet (Bermuda's number one entertainment website and party organiser) and booking cruises at least once a month. Things were just getting started for the sound, when Henery aka Porta-G joined the family. they became stronger and were now getting forgien dubplates every week.

Young Gunz have been in a few sound clashes (Dj's busting out their dubplates in a music battle) and have done pretty good, and thats when summer 2004 came around and they were in the biggest sound clash of the summer. YoungGunz-Vs.-Rapid Fya-Vs.-Supatone. They finished second however the experience made them better. By then Scotty aka Round Head and Keegan aka Keebla had joined the sound thins were comming together even better now.

They are one of the few young sounds on Bermuda who are still going strong, they entertain the people by playing nice vibes all night and play what the people want to hear. They also play old songs if thats what the people want to hear.

messiah is a line of powerful animation & rendering products specifically designed to handle the most demanding character animation & rendering needs. To meet the varied needs of studios and hobbyists, messiah is available in three forms, messiah:animate, messiah:studio Workstation, and messiah:studio Pro.

messiah:animate includes: animation & rigging, host connections and plug-in API

messiah:studio workstation includes: animation & rigging, rendering & shading (1 node), host connections and plug-in API

messiah:studio professional includes: animation & rigging, rendering & shading (unlimited nodes), host connections, plug-in API and messiah:develop a visual plug-in development module (coming soon in a free update to for messiah:studio pro).

Overview.

All three versions of messiah include the full version of messiah:animate. messiah:animate is our core animation package whose award-winning technologies have been developed by, and in conjunction with, some of the industry's top companies and artists. It is a user-driven production-centered product that has become indispensable for everything from films and commercials, to music videos and games.

messiah:animate/studio can be used as a stand-alone animation package or as a powerful addition to Maya, 3D Studio MAX, LightWave and Cinema 4D. One of messiah's many unique capabilities includes the ability to set up an animation and, through messiah's host connections, run that animation and use it in any of the host programs messiah can connect to. Maya users love messiah's powerful and easy rigging capabilities, such as the ability to setup custom control rigs with Armature, without having to write MEL scripts. Another favorite is messiah's "smart bones", that work the way you want immediately, without requiring weight maps (though weighting systems can be used too).

Moyross is the largest housing estate in Limerick and is situated on the north side of the city. Built between 1973 and 1987, it is located near Thomond Park and the Limerick Institute of Technology. There are more than 1,200 houses in the estate. About 5,500 people live in the various estates that make up Moyross. Moyross is divided into different areas. These include Cosgrave Park. Daglish Park, Pineview Gardens,Delmege Park, Castle Park, Sarsfield Gardens, Craeval Park, Cliona Park, College Avenue and Glenagross. The Limerick estate has a notorious reputation for crime and violence. Recent years have seen serious crimes in Limerick being linked with feuds between criminal gangs within certain areas of the city, mainly Moyross, Southill and St. Mary's Park. Anti-social behaviour has escalated hugely in the second half of 2006, culminating with an horiffic petrol bomb attack in which two children suffered extensive burns after their mother's car was set alight.

Solid Gold Chartbusters is a British recording duo best known for "I Wanna 1-2-1 With You," a novelty-pop record which sampled a cellphone ring. Though BBC Radio 1 refused to play the song, it nonetheless climbed into the top 20 in December of 1999. The band consisted of Jimmy Cauty and Guy Pratt.

Costumes from its music video were later used in an unusual advertising campaign in which online film clips purportedly showing pranksters stealing the cellphones of unsuspecting passersby.

Where do you get the info from that it was a top 20 hit?

I don't think WP:KLF (me pretty much) has any interest in stubbing this out at the moment. It was a hugely insignificant attempt by Cauty to have a big hit record. It didn't work. Of course we know about the song and it has a few links, but we'll get to it when we get to it (if ever). If anyone else wants to create a stub feel free.

Note: "a British recording duo best known for "I Wanna 1-2-1 With You,"" is blatantly incorrect. They're known only for that one song, and most people would never have heard of them. If the article is created it should be called I Wanna 1-2-1 With You and be about the song, since they were one hit wonders and Cauty and Pratt already have articles. --kingboyk 15:28, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Situated in the town of Vineland, Ontario, Canada on the slopes of the Niagara Escarpment with Lake Ontario in the distance, Vineland Estates Winery has been consistently referred to as "Niagara's Premiere Wine & Culinary Experience".

In 1979 fifty acres of the 75 acre Estate were planted with German Riesling vines. Established on a homestead dating back to 1845, the Estate, while utilizing many of the original historic buildings has evolved into a world class winery and restaurant.

The slopes of the new vineyards contain recent plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc vines, imported directly from French nurseries.

From expanded vineyards of European vinifera grape vines, Vineland Estates Winery produces a wide range of both red and white wines, as well as world renowned Icewines. The production of the winery is currently 50,000 cases and much of the wine is sold on site in the Winery Boutique. They also export wine to Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, the United States of America, United Kingdom, as well as the Canadian provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec.

The Restaurant @ Vineland Estates Winery, is a 4-Diamond Award winning restaurant. It features local Niagara cuisine, throughout the year. Private groups can book the historic stone Carriage House which dates back to 1857 for elegant private functions as well as special occasions, receptions, small weddings and meetings.

[edit] School History

Ben Franklin Academy of Dekalb County, Georgia was founded in 1987 by former educators and educational researchers Dr. Wood Smethurst and Dr. Martha Bruner Burdette. Their background included significant work at Emory University researching children and adults in various group and individual settings. Their vast experience also encompassed such accomplishments as co-founding Atlanta area private schools, serving as chairman for multiple educational boards, and teaching experience spanning all ages of students in both public and private environments. With great knowledge of the educational system, Smethurst and Burdette saw a need for improvement in many aspects of schooling, especially individual attention and education. In November of 1997, Ben Franklin Academy was incorporated to meet the need for a non-profit mainstream school that offered quality individualized instruction in a caring, informally progressive setting, specifically devoted to students who wanted to succeed. The following June of 1988, the school officialy open its doors to the first class of twelve students. Since then, Ben Franklin Academy has increased its enrollment to 120 students and has had an admissions waiting list for the past five years. Since its founding, BFA has graduated over 600 students. The school was accredited as a Special Purpose School by SACS (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools) in 1994 and was reaccredited in 1999.

[edit] Academics and Policies

The Ben Franklin Academy is perhaps Atlanta's most unique school in terms of its operational process and direct teaching methods. Nearly all instruction is one-on-one, with each students cirriculum individualized to fit their specific needs. BFA requires that students participate in a work-study program, calling for the completion of 150 work hours per semester. To accomodate for the mandatory work schedule a typical school-day lasts only 3 and 1/2 hours. However, with extremely low student-to-teacher ratios the objective is to eliminate the bureaucracy and subsequent wasted time in convental schools with large class sizes, presumably leading to more time spent learning. Other noteworthy operations at the school are two fully stocked kitchens in which students may prepare a meal or drink as they so desire, food and drink permissible in the classrooms, a neck-tie dress code allowing hats to be worn, no hall passes or having to ask to use the restroom, and a fifteen minute break in which the students are invited to have a snack or with parental permission, smoke a cigarette in a designated smoking area.

[edit] Atheltics

Though limited by small enrollment and limited facilities, BFA has maintained a small but enthusiastic athletics program. The BFA 'Blazers' compete against other local private schools in basketball, baseball, and golf. Notably, Michael Fiore son of PGA tour participant Ed Fiore led the 2004 golf team to the Dekalb cities championship.

St. Andy's RFC (Rugby Football Club) is a Christian men's rugby team centered in Moscow, ID. They play rugby with other men's teams in the area, including many college teams. They are an independently governed team, and members of the Pacific Northwest Rugby Football Union(PNRFU). They were founded in the fall of 2004 by some college students. In their second season, they ratified a constitution and elected officers, establishing their system of government.

St. Andy's does not require a man to be a professing Christian to be a member of or play for the team, but they do require each player to sign a Player's Contract which obligates him to conduct himself in a way befitting a Christian. Players will be held accountable to their player contract.

They are committed to playing a style of rugby that glorifies our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore we are dedicated to an intelligent, hard-hitting style of play. In this, they seek to minister to their church, Moscow and the entire northwest rugby community. They expect an attitude of respect and humility both on and off the field.

Their goal is to be the best men's rugby team in the country. The church is in a position to gain significant influence over the sport of rugby because of its newness on the American sports scene. They seek to reform rugby culture into something the church can be proud of and glory in. To learn more about what they think about rugby and other things, take a look at their newsletters.

In the past they were entirely funded by the generous donations of individual sponsors. Building on their base of individual supporters, they are now seeking corporate sponsorship. For more information about how to support St. Andy's RFC financially, visit their sponsorship information page.

Combat Hapkido, or Chon-Tu Kwan, is a new martial art pioneered by Grandmaster Pelligrino. He started the martial art as a method of refining Hapkido into a real street self-defense style. The methods are borrowed from the traditional version of Hapkido and other tactics such as police defense tactics, use of weapons, most notably the don bang (short stick) and long stick, because of this, there is no sport aspect of the style and it is mainly used as a stictly self-defense style.

Combat Hapkido is also based on a scientific approach by focusing on areas of the body where the maxium defense against an on coming attack can be re-directed or stopped. The approach utilizes joint locks, major locks (legs, arms), throws, takedowns and weapons defense.

Leroy Hutson is an African American instrumentalist, composer, arranger, producer and multi-talented performer

He never achieved a level of success that his talent deserved.

Leroy first formed a vocal group in his native New Jersey, but emerged as a soul music talent while attending Howard University in 1970.

There with his room-mate Donny Hathaway, he collaborated on 'The Ghetto', a hit for Donny in early 1970.

Born on 4 June 1945, Newark, New Jersey, U.S.A., Leroy and Donny also sang in the Mayfield Singers, who released one single for Curtis Mayfield in 1967.

Later he teamed up with Deborah Rollins to form Sugar And Spice, recording several singles with some success.

In 1971, Hutson replaced Mayfield in the Impressions and recorded two albums with the group.

Leroy began his solo career on Curtom in 1973 and through 1992 established himself with a successful recording career, recording eight albums and charting with some 13 singles in the U.S.A.

On most of his work, he wrote, produced, arranged and played multiple instruments.

His most successful charting singles were 'All Because Of You' (1975), 'Feel The Spirit' (1976), 'I Do, I Do' (1976), 'Where Did Love Go' (1978), and 'Right Or Wrong' (1979).

When Curtom went out of business in 1980, Leroy's career was essentially on hold and he soon disappeared from the music world, re-appearing briefly for 'Paradise' in 1982.

He later worked for the UK based Expansion Label releasing the 'Shades Of Love' EP.

A unique design for the Early Bronze Age IV oil lamp appeared around 2300 BCE and disappeared 300 short years later. What influenced the design and its quick demise? A major climate change in this region contributed to a shift from urbanism to a semi-nomadic lifestyle and with it, adaptations of an everyday utensil - the oil lamp.

By Yoon

During the early 60s, two friends, one from Barcelona (Arnau) and one from Madrid (Campos) bought a plastics manufacturing company that was bordering on bankruptcy: Madel (Manufacturas Delgado=Delgado Manufacturing). Arnau is the son of the founder of Exin Bros, one of the largest toy makers company in Spain. The same company that made Scalextric slot cars , Exin castillos, Cine Exin and others.

In the begining, Madel manufactured all types of plastic products, not just toys. In 1966/67 they start developing a six-inch ‘poseable doll’. The idea being that it was the perfect scale to fit in a child’s pocket. Their dolls had unique joints based on human articulation . It would have probably been a great hit worldwide if it had been developed by a US company, and not by a small company from Spain…

The first contact with retailers was not successful at all. They felt like boys wouldn't play with dolls. Hasbro heard the same thing while trying to promote GI Joe. Despite the initial cool reception from retailers the product actually ended up selling quite well.

The first madelman figures were released during Xmas 68, in a small display box that was later changed to the standard box in 1971. The early madelman figures didn't have feet but rather pegs onto which the boots were fitted. Also, they had what collectors call ‘crystal eyes’, which were handpainted!

About 75/76, they developed the second madelman figure, which had jointed feet and painted eyes. A female figure was also added to the line. A third body type was released during the last years of Madelman in 82/84. Instead of being a new body, it was just a combination of previously released figures: torso, arms and chest from the male body and the legs of the female body.

Madelman figures were eventually manufactured in Mexico, by Exinmex. The molds made by Exinmex were the same as those made in Spain, but there were remarkable differences in the quality of both the costumes and accessories. Exinmex also released some figures that were different from the Madel Spain line.

The only problem with the figures were that they were too fragile, their hard fingers and knee and elbow joints were easily broken. Still, I don’t think that there are any other action figures from the 60s or 70s figures that are so poseable. Madel stopped making madelman figures in 1984. They eventually closed down all of their toy lines the same year.

One of the reasons Madelman has become so collectible not only in Spain, but in another countries from Europe and even the USA, is the quality of its accessories. You see, Madelman rarely painted their accessories. If something was made in two different colors, such as rifle, they would construct it with 2 seperate pieces, a wooden-like piece and an iron-like piece. Awesome considering the scale!

The Madel vehicles line is also awesome, a jeep that looks like a smaller GI Joe Five Star jeep (identical in every aspect but the scale), a helicopter, horses, caravan wagon, etc…

The variety of figures was quite impressive including Astronauts, Pirates, Cowboys, Military Figures, Super Heroes and even Eskimos!

Today, an increasing number of collectors have discovered the quality and variety that the unique madelman line offers.

Donald Shaw Ramsay was the pipe major. When he was 20, Donald Ramsay was the youngest pipe major of the british army. Since then he commanded the Edinburgh City Police Pipe Band who won the World Pipe Band Championship in 1950 and 1954 under his command. When he was in San Fransisco (due to an injury in the police force) he led the City of San Francisco Pipe Band to win the California Pipe Band Championship for the first time in history.

In 1964 the Invergordon Distillery Pipe Band were commanded to play for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. They were also commanded to play for the Queen's mother in 1966. The Pipe Major has played in for many royal families such as the Danish royal family.

Donald Ramsay first recruit was Drum Major, Alex Duthart, recognised for his Drumming throughout the world.

Since then, with Alex Duthart, Donald Ramsay has won countless awards for the Invergordon Pipe Band. He set the standard for pipe bands around the world. Because of Donald Shaw Ramsay the Invergordon Distillery Pipe Band is arguably the greatest pipe band in the world.

University College students can pursue a degree from any of Syracuse University’s schools through University College. Recognized as a leader in continuing education, distance learning, and online education, University College offers a variety of degree programs, certificates, and noncredit courses in formats tailored for part-time students. Courses are offered in the evenings, on weekends, online, and through short residency programs. During the summer, courses are offered during the daytime. In addition to serving the academic needs of students pursuing their degrees part-time, University College also offers award-winning workforce training programs and sponsors community service programs.
