Anthropology in Latin means

12 Февраля 2013, реферат

Anthropology as an independent discipline began to develop in the second half of the 18th - century. Early attempts to understand man's place in nature, its similarity to other organisms, its originality, is probably as old as it is scientific knowledge in general. The main stages of anthropological knowledge coincide with critical stages of history of human society. The struggle between old and new outlook, the rise or collapse of thousands of individual destinies could not lead to a profound meditation on the essence of human nature.
"Assignment" man, the forces that led people in the world and who armed his mind, raised above all living beings and at the same time made the victim of countless disasters and social injustice.

Appraising the European Central Bank

13 Декабря 2011, реферат

THE global economy has stopped sinking and central bankers are pausing for breath. As The Economist went to press on July 2nd, the European Central Bank (ECB) was expected to keep its main “refi” interest rate unchanged, at 1%. The ECB’s rate-setting council has been chary of cutting rates closer to zero as policymakers elsewhere have done. Its reluctance to do more has attracted criticism, only some of it fair.

Are you reaping the benefits from your monitoring system?

07 Октября 2011, реферат

Many power stations do not benefit from their sophisticated monitoring systems due to lack of expertise. Further, systems are generally over sold by their suppliers, using words such "failure predictions" and "estimating times to failure". This is the Holy Grail of monitoring but rarely achievable.

Aspect is a grammatical category

03 Апреля 2013, реферат

A basic aspectual distinction is that between perfective and imperfective aspects (not to be confused with perfect and imperfect verb forms; the meanings of the latter terms are somewhat different). Perfective aspect is used in referring to an event conceived as bounded and unitary, without reference to any flow of time during it ("I killed him"). Imperfective aspect is used for situations conceived as existing continuously or repetitively as time flows ("I was killing him"; "I used to kill people"). Further distinctions can be made, for example, to distinguish states and ongoing actions (continuous and progressive aspects) from repetitive actions (habitual aspect).

Leibniz had as ideal the following.
(1) Create a ‘universal language’ in which all possible problems can be stated.
(2) Find a decision method to solve all the problems stated in the universal
language.
If one restricts oneself to mathematical problems, point (1) of Leibniz’ ideal
is fulfilled by taking some form of set theory formulated in the language of
first order predicate logic. This was the situation after Frege and Russell (or
Zermelo).

Automatic Identification System

17 Ноября 2010, курсовая работа

The Automatic Identification System (AIS) was originally developed to aid the Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) by use of a VHF transponder working on Digital Selective Call (DSC) at VHF CH70, and is still in use along the UK coastal areas and others. Some time later the IMO developed a Universal AIS using the new sophisticated technology called Self-Organized Time Division Multiple Access (SOTDMA) based on a VHF Data Link (VDL). The system operates in three modes – autonomous (continuous operation in all areas), assigned (data transmission interval remotely controlled by authority in traffic monitoring service) and polled (in response to interrogation from a ship or authority). It is synchronized with GPS time to avoid conflict among multiple users (IMO minimum 2000 reports per minute and IEC requires 4500 reports on two channels). The VHF channels 87B and 88B are commonly used and in addition there are local AIS frequencies. Shipborne AIS transponders exchange various data as specified by the IMO and ITU on either frequency automatically set up by the frequency management telecommand received by the DSC receiver on ship.

Boris Don't sneer at Starbucks over tax payment

23 Апреля 2013, статья

London Mayor Boris Johnson has urged people not to "sneer" at the coffee chain Starbucks over its decision to pay £20m in corporation tax.
The company, which has come under considerable criticism for paying nothing over the past three years, announced the move earlier this month.
Critics described this as a desperate attempt to improve publicity.
But Mr Johnson told the BBC, Starbucks was showing "corporate responsibility" and the issue was "difficult".
The company has paid £8.6m in corporation tax in its 14 years of trading in the UK and nothing in the last three years, despite UK sales of nearly £400m in 2011.

British architecture

There is no place in all Britain and few in the whole world, so surrounded by mystery as the group of huge, rough-cut stones which people call Stonehenge – place of the “hanging stones”. This “Riddle of Ages” is situated on the Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, a county in south-western England. It is the most famous and probably the most remarkable of all prehistoric monuments in the country. Started 5,000 years ago and remodelled several times in the centuries that followed. It represents one of the most remarkable achievements of prehistoric engineering. It is made of many upright stones, standing in groups of twos, 8,5 meters high. They are joined on the top by other flat stones, each weighing about 7 tons. They form a 97 foot-diameter circle that once held 30 columns and an inner horseshoe of even grander blocks, some 200 feet tall.
