The National Police Gazette, commonly referred to as simply the Police Gazette, is an American magazine founded in 1845. Under publisher Richard K. Fox, it became the forerunner of the men's lifestyle magazine, the illustrated sports weekly, the girlie/pin-up magazine, the celebrity gossip column, Guinness World Records-style competitions, and modern tabloid/sensational journalism.

Publication history
The magazine was founded by two journalists, Enoch E. Camp, an attorney, and George Wilkes, a transcontinental railroad booster. It began as a chronicler of crime and criminals, intended for consumption by the general public. In 1866, Wilkes and Camp sold the Gazette to George W. Matsell. The editor and proprietor from 1877 until his death in 1922 was Richard Kyle Fox, an immigrant from Ireland.

Ostensibly devoted to matters of interest to the police, it was a tabloid-like publication, with lurid coverage of murders, Wild West outlaws, and sport. It was well known for its engravings and photographs of scantily clad strippers, burlesque dancers, and prostitutes, often skirting on the edge of what was legally considered obscenity. For decades it was a staple furnishing of barber shops, where men would peruse it awaiting their turn. The publication's association with barber shops was noted in a Vaudeville routine in which the straight man asked "Seen the Police Gazette?," and his partner replied "No, I shave myself."

The National Police Gazette enjoyed considerable popularity in the late 19th century and early decades of the 20th century. Its popularity decreased during the Great Depression. In 1932 the Police Gazette ceased publication, and was sold at auction for a nominal sum. Publication was suspended from Feb. 11, 1932 until Sept. 5, 1933, when it was revived under the ownership of the Donenfelds, who placed it in the editorial hands of Mrs. Merle W. Hersey, the ex-wife  of Harold Hersey.  During this period the paper appeared twice a month and took on more of the flavor of a girlie magazine. The Donenfeld/Hersey regime did not last long. The magazine changed hands again within a year, coming into the possession of Harold H. Roswell and becoming a monthly publication in 1935.  The National Police Gazette continued as a monthly publication in Roswell's hands for many years. The Canadian newspaper publisher Joseph Azaria took it over in 1968, and it finally ceased print publication in 1977.

In September 1942, the United States Post Office barred delivery of the publication through the mail because of its "obscene and lewd pictures."

In its heyday it was immensely influential. In the first part of the 20th century, the US became the center for professional boxing. It was generally accepted that the "world champions" were those listed by the Police Gazette. Fox handed diamond-studded belts to champion prizefighters. After 1920, the National Boxing Association began to sanction "title fights".

Annual publication
From 1896 to 1918, a Sporting Annual was published as a yearly summary of statistics in the sporting world.   The guide touted themselves as "Statistics and Best Performances in Pugilism, Athletics, Bicycling, Rowing, Baseball, Trotting, and Racing."   The 200+ page publication was compiled by Sam C. Austin, editor of the Gazette.  Although primarily focused on boxing, there are dozens of unique illustrations and summaries on  other sports that are of particular interest to those studying the history of sports.

Frank Samuelsen and George Harbo

In 1896, the Police Gazette allegedly offered a prize of $10,000 (about $300,000 in 2018 money) to the first to row across the Atlantic Ocean, though no contemporary source exists confirming a Police Gazette offer of any significant monetary prize.  In the same year, George Harbo and Frank Samuelsen invested their savings in an 18-foot rowboat, which they named 'Fox' after the editor of the Gazette, Richard K. Fox. Despite crossing the Atlantic in 55 days (a record not broken until 2010, albeit by a team of four rowers) the Police Gazette never paid the men the promised prize money, though no contemporary sources exist showing the money was ever offered by the Police Gazette or that the men were expecting a substantial sum from the Gazette.  Numerous sources report the men were expecting either no money or only whatever money could be raised from exhibitions following successful completion of the voyage. Sources also show Richard K. Fox and the Police Gazette offered and provided towing of the 'Fox' to Bay Ridge, Brooklyn—the last outside propulsion used by Harbo and Samuelsen until reaching Europe; payment of expenses incurred by the American consulate in Le Havre for their food, clothing, and temporary shelter upon reaching the continent; two gold medals commemorating the achievement; and publicity within the pages of the Police Gazette. The Gazette was also the only newspaper willing to attach its name to the endeavor as others considered it too risky.

Entertainment coverage of the vaudeville stage
On July 27, 1901 appeared as one of National Police Gazette headlines for reviews of popular entertainers, "Paragraphs of Interest Concerning the Stage Lives and Doings of Vaudeville People, Here can be Found Many Items Which Will Interest Performers as Well as Theater Goers, Professionals Requested to Send in Photos."  On the list of favorably reviewed entertainers that included ventriloquists, minstrels, songsters, aerialists, and comedians was listed Pat H. Chappelle and his The Rabbit's Foot Company among other vaudeville shows.

Hitler conspiracy theories

The Gazette claimed in 1939 that Adolf Hitler was homosexual and questioned in 1946 and 1947 whether he had really died in his Berlin bunker in 1945. Between 1951 and 1972, the Gazette published scores of stories asserting that Hitler could have somehow survived (often featuring him on the cover), contradicting the widely accepted account of his death. Writing for the Gazette, US intelligence officer William F. Heimlich asserted that Hitler's body would not have burned to ashes in the open air of the Reich Chancellery garden and that according to US tests the blood found on Hitler's sofa did not match his blood type. Other narratives range from the details of Hitler's alleged escape (with destinations including Antarctica and South America) to his supposed prime physical health and conceiving two children with Eva Braun around the late 1930s. In 2017, the Gazette published a new article reviving the narrative and calling on the Russian government to allow Hitler's dental remains to be DNA-tested to settle the matter.

Current incarnation
Since 2007, the National Police Gazette has been managed by National Police Gazette Enterprises, LLC, which houses the official Police Gazette magazine archive, publishes new content online, puts out compilations of classic content from the past, provides a research service, and manages Police Gazette trademarks and copyrights.

Bare Knuckle Boxing
The Police Gazette was the first organized boxing sanctioning body in the US, declaring its intention in 1881 and issuing championships beginning in 1882. Integral to the Police Gazette Rules was the requirement that championships be contested bare knuckle. Though all professional championship boxing was technically illegal, the Gazette continued as the bare-knuckle sanctioning organization until 1894 when it was clear gloved boxing would be the only acceptable mainstream version of the sport.

In March 2018, Wyoming became the first jurisdiction to legalize bare-knuckle fighting at the state level, and formal bare knuckle events have been happening since June 2018. In response, National Police Gazette Enterprises, LLC, in partnership with the Bare Knuckle Boxing Hall of Fame of Belfast, NY, created the Police Gazette Boxing Corporation as the successor to the Police Gazette's original bare knuckle boxing sanctioning activities. Current Police Gazette Champions are the lineal bare knuckle champions going back to those in the 19th century, such as John L. Sullivan.

Sandton é uma área afluente na Província de Gauteng, África do Sul e faz parte do Município Metropolitano da Cidade de Joanesburgo. O nome da cidade veio da combinação de dois de seus subúrbios, Sandown e Bryanston. Em 1969, Sandton foi promulgada como município por direito próprio, mas perdeu seu estatuto de cidade independente após a reorganização dos governos locais sul-africanos após o fim do apartheid.

Brilliant je naseljeno neuključeno područje u okrugu Colfaxu u američkoj saveznoj državi Novom Meksiku.

Ime je prikupio United States Geological Survey između 1976. i 1981. u prvoj fazi prikupljenja zemljopisnih imena, a Informacijski sustav zemljopisnih imena (Geographic Names Information System) ga je unio u popis 13. studenoga 1980. godine.

Staro ime Brillianta bilo je Swastika. Kad su nacisti usvojili simbol kukastog križa (swastika), mjesto je promijenilo ime. Poštanski ured u Brilliantu zatvoren je 1954. godine.

يوافق الانفعال المرن تمدد (وليس انقطاع) الرابطة المشتركة بين الذرات في الجسم، وعندها تتغير المسافات بين الذرات بمقادير صغيرة وذلك عندما تتعرض المادة لإجهاد خارجي. مجموع هذه التغيرات على طول قطعة من المادة يسمى بالانفعال المرن.

تنعدم القوة بين الذرات إذا كانت متباعدة، وتبدأ الذرات بالتجاذب عند نقصان المسافة a بينها. تظهر قوة تنافر بين الذرات عند تداخل الأغلفة الالكترونية والتي تكون أصغر من قوة التجاذب عند المسافات الكبيرة نسبياً ولكنها تزداد بسرعة وتصبح أكبر عند المسافات الصغيرة. تكون إذاً القوة المحصلة تجاذبية عند المسافات الكبيرة وتدافعية عند المسافات الصغيرة، كما تنعدم عند مسافة التوازن الإلكتروني ao والتي توافق وضع الطاقة الأصغري.

إن الانفعالات المرنة (موضوع الاهتمام الهندسي) عبارة عن تشويش بسيط لأوضاع التوازن للذرات والتي هي عادة أقل من 1%.

LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (commonly known as LeapFrog) is an educational entertainment and electronics company based in Emeryville, California. LeapFrog designs, develops, and markets technology-based learning products and related content for the education of children from infancy through grade school. The company was founded by Michael Wood and Robert Lally in 1994. John Barbour is the chief executive officer of LeapFrog.

History

Founding: 1990–1997
The history of LeapFrog traces back to the late 1980s when LeapFrog founder Michael Wood, an attorney at Cooley LLP, had difficulties teaching his son how to read. He began researching phonics and marketing while continuing as a partner at Cooley. By 1994, Wood had developed the first prototype of what would become Phonics Desk, LeapFrog's first product. The prototype utilized a Texas Instruments chip that was previously used by one of Wood's clients to develop talking greeting cards. Wood solicited feedback on his prototype from the late Robert Calfee, an expert on children's reading development and a professor of education at the Stanford Graduate School of Education.

Wood began manufacturing the Phonics Desk in 1995. That year, Wood resigned as a partner at Cooley LLP and founded LeapFrog Enterprises with Robert Lally. The company received $800,000 in seed funding from friends, family, and former clients of Wood. Toys "R" Us became the first major retailer to carry the Phonics Desk shortly before Christmas 1995. Other retailers such as FAO Schwarz, Walmart and Target later began carrying the toy.

Expansion and acquisition by Knowledge Universe: 1998–2002
LeapFrog had distribution in over 10 countries and a number of major clients in the US by early 1997. In March of that year, the company hired Brad Crawford, who formerly worked for Little Tikes, to oversee sales and manufacturing. Knowledge Universe acquired a majority stake in LeapFrog in October 1997. Knowledge Universe is an education company founded by brothers Lowell Milken and Michael Milken, Larry Ellison, and Tom Kalinske. LeapFrog subsequently merged with Knowledge Universe's Knowledge Kids division. Kalinske, a former executive at Mattel, became LeapFrog chief executive officer as a result of the merger.

LeapFrog acquired Explore Technologies in August 1998. Explore Technologies produced the Odyssey Globe, an interactive globe that could call out the names of countries when users touched the globe with a specially designed stylus. Explore Technologies' stylus technology was later used in LeapFrog's LeapPad, a learning tablet that sounds out words when users drag a stylus across a word in LeapPad books. The LeapPad launched in 1999 and became Leapfrog's flagship product. It was the top-selling toy in the US for the years 2001-2002 and books and accessories for the device were the best selling toy in the US in 2003. LeapFrog opened its LeapFrog Schoolhouse division, which markets LeapFrog products directly to schools, in 1999.

Going public and acquisition by VTech: 2003–present

LeapFrog co-founder Michael Wood became the company's chief executive officer in early 2002. In July, LeapFrog went public on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol LF. Knowledge Universe retained majority control of the company following the initial public offering. Sega Toys and Benesse also began producing LeapFrog toys localized for the Japanese market in 2002. LeapFrog products were sold in more than 25 countries by 2003. Tom Kalinske was appointed LeapFrog chief executive officer following Michael Wood's retirement in February 2004. Kalinske had previously served as LeapFrog's chief executive officer from the company's acquisition by Knowledge Universe in 1997 until early 2002.  Wood was retained as the company's chief creative officer.  Jeffrey G. Katz replaced Kalinske as LeapFrog chief executive officer in 2006. Katz was previously the founding chairman and chief executive officer of Orbitz and had served on the LeapFrog board for a year prior to becoming the chief executive officer of LeapFrog. Kalinske remained vice chairman of LeapFrog.

LeapFrog discontinued the LeapPad and released its Tag Reading System in June 2008. Tag became LeapFrog's flagship product and was a successor to the 10-year-old LeapPad. The company released its Leapster2 portable learning system and its Didj educational handheld game console in August 2008.

William "Bill" Chiasson replaced Jeffrey Katz as LeapFrog president and chief executive officer in March 2010. Chiasson had most recently served as LeapFrog chief financial officer.  Katz was appointed to the newly created position of executive chairman of the board. LeapFrog also released the Leapster Explorer educational handheld game console in 2010. The Leapster Explorer was the successor to the Leapster2 and was targeted toward older children. The console supports online gameplay as well as learning apps, e-books, and videos. John Barbour was named the chief executive officer of LeapFrog in March 2011. Barbour previously served as an executive for Toys "R" Us and RealNetworks.

LeapFrog released the LeapPad Explorer educational tablet computer in 2011. The LeapPad Explorer was designed for children aged four to nine and contained a five-inch touchscreen, camera, microphone, and both downloadable apps and cartridge-based games. In 2012, LeapFrog released its updated LeapPad2 and LeapsterGS. The LeapPad Ultra tablet computer and LeapReader were launched in 2013. The LeapReader is an electronic reading and writing system that succeeded the Tag Reading System which only taught reading skills.

The company released LeapBand, its first wearable activity tracker for children, in 2014. LeapFrog also released its LeapPad3 and LeapPad Ultra XDi tablet devices in 2014. In July 2014, the company announced the release of LeapTV. They also got net loss for $124 million and had net sales of $145 million. In August 2015, the company announced LeapFrog Epic, its new Android-based tablet for children, which was released in September 2015.

On April 4, 2016, VTech completed its $72 million acquisition of LeapFrog.

Products

LeapFrog's product portfolio focuses on three main families of products: reading solutions, educational gaming, and grade school products and learning toys. Notable products include:
 LeapFrog Epic - An Android-based tablet for children ages 3–9. The tablet runs on the Android KitKat operating system, with a quad-core MediaTek MT8127 processor, 7" multi-touch capacitive screen, front and back camera, video recorder, 16GB of memory and a battery that lasts for 6 hours. The product was released in September 2015 and its MSRP is US$139.99. An updated variant of the Epic called Academy Edition was released in 2017, with a redesigned silicone protective bumper and access to the LeapFrog Academy program. Another updated variant called the LeapPad Academy was released in 2019, which, like the Epic Academy Edition before it, came with access to the LeapFrog Academy program and a silicone bumper with a built-in kickstand.
 LeapTV - A TV connected video game console that uses motion control. The console has a TV connected camera that tracks motion control of both the controller and the player's body. Like any other current video game console, it has games available in cartridge or download form. The console's release was announced in July 2014 and ended up launching just four months later in September. LeapTV is aimed at ages 3–8.
LeapBand - A wearable activity tracker for children aged 4–7. LeapBand is a wristband that gives commands like "wiggle like a worm" or "pop like popcorn." Children earn joules energy gems by completing challenges, playing the built-in games, moving around in Move Mode, and using the stopwatch. Once they earn enough Joules, they will get rewards, such as new toys & favorite foods for their pet, getting a new pet, and leveling up their pets.
LeapReader - A specially designed stylus that reads audio books aloud and teaches basic writing skills. The device is similar to LeapFrog's Tag Reading System, although the Tag system did not teach writing skills as does LeapReader. LeapReader was released in July 2013.
LeapStart - A newer family of products including the LeapStart announced in 2016, the LeapStart 3D released in 2018, and the LeapStart Go released in 2019. These also include a stylus for reading content on specially patterned books but this system is not compatible with the earlier Tag and LeapReader books.
LeapPad Explorer/LeapPad2/Ultra/LeapPad3/Ultra XDi Tablets - The second line of LeapPad products are personalized learning tablets designed for children ages 4–9. When children set up the LeapPad, they enter their grade level and LeapPad automatically adjusts its games and applications to that grade level. The existing library of Leapster Explorer game cartridges and apps is cross-compatible with LeapPad. LeapPad Explorer was released in August 2011. The LeapPad2 was released in August 2012. The LeapPad3 and LeapPad Ultra XDi were released in 2014.
Leapster/Leapster2/Leapster Explorer/LeapsterGS Explorer - Portable learning systems for children ages 4–10 with a large library of cartridge games and downloadable learning apps, including e-books, videos, games, and flashcards. The original Leapster was released in 2003. The company subsequently released the Leapster2 in 2008 and Leapster Explorer in 2010. The LeapsterGS Explorer was released in 2012.
Tag Reading System - A specially designed stylus that has a small infrared camera at the tip that "reads" letters, words and symbols printed on the special dot-patterned pages of books in the Tag library. The system is designed to help children ages 4–8 learn to read. The company released Tag Junior, a system designed for children ages 1–4, in 2009.
My Pal Scout - A customizable plush toy that can be programmed with various songs and the owner's name and preferences. Additionally, LeapFrog produced various other toys, including toy vehicles, interactive plushes, and toys for the infant market. LeapFrog later released Read with Me Scout, a plush toy that can read aloud books from its product line.
The original LeapPad – A series of now-discontinued educational devices. The products in this family varied in design, but all accepted an insertion cartridge to be used with a book that was placed in the device. The cartridge was activated when a child used a specially designed stylus to touch pictures, words, and shapes in the book. The device would then sound out-touched word, name the shape, or relay information about the picture. The LeapPad was LeapFrog's flagship product from 1999 until it was discontinued in late 2007 (early-mid 2008 outside the US). It was replaced as LeapFrog's flagship product by the Tag reading system.
Tad's Subtraction Sheet - A discontinued subtraction sheet released in 2013. Used with dry-erase markers.

Smartphone applications
Leapfrog also develops educational applications for smartphones. These apps include:

'Scout's ABC Garden' App - An iOS application that was released in April 2011. The app encourages children to explore letter names and sounds step-by-step, and each child's experience can be customized based on his or her name, favorite food, favorite color and favorite animal.
Creativity Camera - An iOS application that allows children to take and edit pictures. The application also contains an augmented reality game where users can take pictures of imaginary fairies. Creativity Camera comes with a child-friendly phone case that is shaped like a camera. The app and phone case were launched in 2013.
Mr. Pencil: Learn to Write - An iOS application that works with a stylus accessory to teach users basic writing skills. It requires iOS 5.0 or later. The app was released in 2013.

LeapFrog Enterprises


Bostik is a manufacturer and distributor of adhesives and sealants for the construction, industrial and consumer markets. With annual sales of €2.1 billion, the company employs 6,000 people and has a presence in more than 40 countries. Bostik is part of the French-based, Arkema group.

History
In 1889, the Boston Blacking Company, a producer of leather colourings and dyes, was founded in Chelsea, Massachusetts. The company became the chemical branch of United Shoe Machinery Corporation (USMC) – an American leader in the shoemaking industry – and grew in several countries through mergers, acquisitions and organic growth.

By the late 1920s, the Boston Blacking Company was established in 12 countries across three continents and employed over 1,000 chemists and technicians. A number of products had been launched under the Bostik brand as early as the 1940s and the company took on Bostik as a company name in the 1960s.

In 1980, Bostik was taken over by the Connecticut group Emhart Corporation, which nine years later was, itself, bought up by Black & Decker. Black & Decker split apart the mechanical and chemical activities of the group to leave Bostik as a stand-alone concern.

In 1990, the French oil and gas group Total acquired Bostik and merged its own adhesive affiliates into it.

In 2000, Totalfina and Elf Aquitaine merged to form TotalFinaElf, subsequently renamed Total. Their respective adhesives divisions, Bostik and Atofindley, were brought together to form Bostik Findley, and the name was subsequently changed in 2004 to Bostik.

In 2013 Bostik revisited its brand identity, with a new signature "smart adhesives" and a gecko inspired from nature with a science-based connection to Bostik's adhesives business. In 2015, Arkema, a global chemical major with leadership positions in specialty chemicals and high performance materials, acquired Bostik. In 2019 Bostik won an Adhesives and Sealants Council (ASC) Innovation Award for " "Brilliance" which is an olefin elastic high-performance attachment adhesive." Darius Deak accepts an Adhesives and Sealants Council award.

Headquarters building

In 1937, Boston Blacking built a Streamline Moderne headquarters building in Cambridge, Massachusetts, signposted as "B B CHEMICAL", and used it until 1966. The building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1982.

Products
Bostik is among the four top adhesives and sealants producers in the world. Bostik employs over 5,000 workers in 50 countries and five continents.

Bostik has a well recognized name in industrial markets. It has some divisions such as: Industrial/Nonwovens, Construction and Distribution, and High-performance polymers.  Its brands include Bostik, Blu Tack, Prestik, Sader, Quelyd, Simson, Evo-Stik, Alliance, Ardal, Cementone, Mem, Technik, Hey'Di, SB Mercier, Chem-Calk, Hydroment, Durabond, Anchor Weld, Clag, Gripfill, Flexacryl and Aquamac weatherband.

On the industrial level, Bostik products are used in many sectors including aeronautics, household appliances, automotive, transport and construction.

Bostik products are also used in the packaging industry and advanced packaging, as well as in the assembly sector and disposable hygiene products.

Bostik is also for the General Public with preparation, assembly and repair products as well as a range of adhesives and glues, stationery and artisanar for DIY and hobby (including Blu Tack).

Rewards
Two products have received the approval of professionals and the general public:

 Brilliance: the first high-performance olefin adhesive for fixing elastics, a patented formulation. In 2018, Bostik won the Adhesives and Sealant Council (ASC) trophy for the contribution to innovation of Brilliance™.
 Fix & Flash: bonding technology which dries in contact with the rays of LED light. Fix & Flash is voted "Product of the year 2019" in the "repair glue" category.

Kicking & Screaming (Gritando y pateando en Hispanoamérica y Un entrenador genial en España), es una película de comedia de 2005, dirigida por Jesse Dylan y protagonizada por Will Ferrell y Robert Duvall. Se centra en las hazañas de un equipo de fútbol de niños y su nuevo entrenador.

Argumento
Phil Weston (Will Ferrell), es una persona promedio que tuvo que soportar a su padre Buck Weston (Robert Duvall) sobre la competitividad durante su infancia, una educación que ha dejado cicatrices permanentemente mentales. Ahora de mediana edad, casado, con un hijo pequeño llamado Sam, Phil tiene una tienda de vitaminas, mientras que Buck opera una cadena local de tiendas de deporte.

Buck es el entrenador de los Gladiadores, el más exitoso equipo de la liga de fútbol en el distrito. Sam está en el equipo, pero para disgusto de su padre, su abuelo lo mantiene como en la banca en lugar de ponerlo a jugar, una humillación que también sufrió él varias décadas antes que su hijo. Buck finalmente transfiere a Sam a los Tigres, el peor equipo de la liga.

En el primer partido de Sam con su nuevo equipo, su entrenador, está ausente. En lugar de renunciar, Phil decide entrenar al equipo, cargo que ocupa de forma permanente. Sin embargo, a pesar de los esfuerzos de Phil, el equipo sigue perdiendo en varias ocasiones. En su desesperación, Phil recluta a Mike Ditka (interpretado por él mismo), que es vecino de Buck y odiado enemigo. Atraídos por la oportunidad de vencer a Buck, Ditka acepta la posición. A pesar del agotador entrenamiento, el equipo sigue perdiendo.

Ditka y Phil introducen a dos jóvenes italianos excepcionalmente talentosos que trabajan en una carnicería local. Phil tiene éxito para obtener de la autorización de su tío para que jueguen en los Tigres. Tienen un impacto inmediato, anotando en repetidas ocasiones. La racha da como resultado que los Tigres se conviertan en competidores serios en la liga. Finalmente, después de ganar un par de juegos, cuando el equipo de Phil va a la final, Phil y Buck hacen una apuesta, si los Gladiadores ganan, Phil vendería su tienda y el trabajo se los dejaría a Buck. Si los Tigres ganan, Buck entregaría su posesión más preciada, 'El balón de Pelé', un balón del famoso jugador que Phil ganó cuando era un niño y su padre se quedó con él.

Mientras tanto, Ditka también vuelve adicto al café a Phil, que rápidamente cambia de un padre cariñoso de modales suaves, para un loco, a lo largo de la competencia el entrenador, no es tan diferente de su padre, abusa de los niños y de los padres por igual. El mantra del equipo se convierte en "llevar el balón a los italianos", que, aunque eficaz, desmoraliza a su equipo. En el último momento de la competencia pone en la banca a su propio hijo durante toda la semifinal del juego.

Los Tigres llegan a la final donde se enfrentaran a los Gladiadores. En el descanso, el marcador es de 2-1 a favor de los Gladiadores. En una conversación de corazón a corazón con su hijo, Phil se da cuenta del error que ha cometido. Le dice a su equipo que deben hacer exactamente lo contrario de lo que él les enseñaba. A pesar de que los Gladiadores anotan un gol más tras el descanso al medio tiempo, no pierden la esperanza. Phil le da al portero sus gafas para que pueda observar bien el juego. A partir de ahí, Ambrose marcó un golde forma que el marcador esta 3-2. Después de otro gol, el marcador está empatado. El equipo se apresura y produce otro gol para ganar 4-3, Sam anota el gol de la victoria contra su tío Bucky (interpretado por un joven Josh Hutcherson) (hijo de Buck que nació en el mismo día que Sam), con un movimiento que practicó cuando su papá lo puso en la banca en las semifinales.

En honor a la apuesta, Buck intenta darle el balón a Phil, pero Phil se niega. Hace las paces con su padre, y fusionan sus negocios, dándose cuenta de que hay más a la vida que ganar.

Kostel, Kosmati grad, Petrapilosa, Kaštel, Kosmati Kaštel, Kosmati Koštel, Pietra Pelosa, Petrepiloza, Ruvin, Petra Pilosa, Kostel Petrapilosa (tal. Pietrapelosa, lat. Petrapilosa, nje. Rauenstein, Wollenstein) utvrda u Hrvatskoj.

Ime
Lokalci ga nazivaju Kostel. Talijanski naziv Petra Pilosa i Petrapoilose znači "dlakavi kamen". Dolazi od toga što su zidovi kaštela najvećim dijelom zbog velike vlage gotovo uvijek bili obrasli mahovinom koja je mijenjala boje i tako stoljećima. Otuda je ime Kosmati Kostel, što je izravni prijevod lat., tal. i djelimice njemačkog naziva. U novije vrijeme među autorima se širi hibridni naziv Kostel Petrapilosa.

Zemljopisni položaj
Nalazi se na visokoj hridi na 119 metara nadmorske visine, ponad rječice Bračane, kilometar i pol sjeverno od ušća u Mirnu. Najbliža naselja su Žonti i Mali Mlun. Dvorac je u buzetskoj općini, blizu granice s općinom Oprtaljem. Do njega se dolazi s lokalne ceste 50027, s koje se skreće na manji asfaltni put i dalje makadamom.

Povijest
Lokalitet je bio mjesto ljudskog boravka još u pretpovijesti. Iz brončanog i željeznog doba nađeni su ulomci keramike te nalaz ostave željeznoga oružja datiran oko 600. pr. Kr. U brončanom dobu u ove su se krajeve doselili Iliri koji su na vrhovima brežuljaka podizali naselja ograđena zidovima. Danas se samo sa sjeverne strane prepoznaje terase gradinskoga naselja, dok je ostatak prapovijesnog naselja nestao s gradnjom kaštela. Rimljani ovdje vladaju od 177. do 476. godine. U starom vijeku Rimljani su na hridi podignuli utvrdu. Iz rimskog vremena su nalazi žarnih grobova s prilozima na okolnim poljima. Tada je bio vojna postaja castrum, koji su Rimljani u kasnoj antici gradili radi obrane graničnih područja antičkih kolonija. Slični castrumi po Istri su Bale – Vallis, Vodnjan – Attignanum, Sipar – Siparis, Roč – Rotium, Mutvoran – Monte Mariani. Castrume kasne antike karakterizira preuzimanje modela s graničnih i vojnoobrambenih područja, zbog porasta opće nesigurnosti nastale unutarnjom i vanjskom krizom Rimskoga Carstva. Vjerojatno je to preneseno i na Istru. Tadašnji castrumi bili su i vojni i civilni objekt, jer su u isto vrijeme bili utočištem lokalnoga stanovništva i izbjeglica iz drugih krajeva. Možda je bio dio Claustra Alpium Iuliarum, sustava utvrda, prepreka i komunikacija između Julijskih Alpa i Jadranskoga mora koji se protezao od Foruma Iulii (Cividale) do Tergesta (Trsta) te od Emone (Ljubljana) do Tarsatice (Rijeka), izgrađen radi zaštite prilaza sjevernoj Italiji iz Panonske nizine, iz koje su nadirali narodi tijekom seoba od 3. do 7. st. Sustav je počeo graditi Marko Aurelije a u sustav utvrda povezan je u 4. stoljeću. Nakon Rimljana ovdje vladaju Bizantinci.

Takva su znanstvena prepostavljanja da se Kostel Petrapilosa bila, da se nalazi na mjestu histarske gradine odnosno bizantske utvrde. Ipak, dosadašnja arheološka istraživanja nisu do kraja potvrdila tu tezu.

Malo se znade o Kosmatom gradu u vremenu infeudacije od 8. do konca 11. stoljeća. Većina istarskih castruma u srednjem vijeku postali su gradovi, a dio se razvio u srednjovjekovne kaštele.
Zna se pouzdano da su Franci zagospodarili Istrom koncem 8. stoljeća i s njima dolazi feudalni sustav. Da bi zaštitili svoje posjede podigli su gradove – utvrde čiji su gospodari postale njemačke obitelji. Otada su ostale poznate ruševine, pored Kostela i ruševine Črnoga Grada i Beloga Grada iznad Ročkoga Polja. Pretpostavlja se da je srednjovjekovna utvrda tj. grad podignut na ruševinama pretpovijesne gradine (kaštelira). Prvi spomen u vrelima je pod nazivom Ruin (ruševina), kada ga je u 10. stoljeću patrijarh Rodoald darovao porečkoj biskupiji. Darovnica je iz 965. Njome je darovana razvalina burga Ruvin (iskvarenica od lat. ruinae = ruševina, razvala). Srušili su ga Slaveni. Ime prije razaranja nije poznato. Čini se da nije bio srušen do temelja, nego tek radi onesposobljavanja za obranu. Od imena Ruvin poslije nastaje njemačko ime Rauenstein = "Kosmati kamen", što se tumači obraslošću okoliša gustim raslinjem. Ime je poslije doslovno bilo prevedeno u Petra Pilosa.

Borbe za prevlast nad Istrom bile su česte pa je i Kostel Petrapiloas često mijenjao vlasnike, sve do 1208. godine. Akvilejski patrijarsi su tad svom vazalu Vulginiusu de Petrapilosi prepustili grad i njegovi potomci su ga imali sve do smrti posljednjeg člane ove znamenite velikaške obitelji Nikole Petrapilose 1352. godine, nakon čega opet upravljaju gradom akvilejski patrijarsi.

Za vjerske potrebe vojske i plemstva je tijekom 12. ili početkom 13. st. podignuta crkva sv. Marije Magdalene. Stanovništvo podgrađa se služilo obližnjom crkvom sv. Antuna Opata. U 13. stoljeću pripadao je grad akvilejskom patrijarhu. Za njegove vladavine je obnovljen 1285. godine. Poslije patrijarha potpao je pod Mletačku Republiku. Osvojila ga je u 15. stoljeću, kad je na njega poslala svog slavnog vojskovođu Taddea d'Estea. Kad je  Nicolò de Gravisi (iz Pirana) 1435. godine otkrio urotu protiv Mletačke Republike, dužd Francesco Foscari ga je nagradio 1440. posjedom Kostelom obliku trajne investiture tj. u "vječni feud". Castrum Petraepillosae dodijelio im je dukalom. Posjed je u vlasništvu obitelji Gravisi do 19. stoljeća, točnije do 1869. godine. Na početku 17. stoljeća je izgorio. Nije obnavljan, ali bez obzira na to se u njemu život nastavio do konca 18. stoljeća. Stalni stanovnici uglavnom su bili vojnici te povremeno i plemstvo. Kad je prestala ljudska nastanjenost unutar kaštela prestala je i djelovati tvrđavna crkve sv. Marije Magdalene, te je posljednja služba u njoj održana 1793. godine.

Danas je ruševan, ali je među najbolje očuvanim gotičkim dvorcima u Istri. Drugi je po veličini na istarskom poluotoku i od njega je veći samo pazinski. Zanimljivost Kostela je najstariji istarski zahod od kamena.

Osobine
Predstavljao je građevinsku cjelinu prije svega fortifikacijske namjene, sa stalnom posadom i stanovništvom. Malo se znade o Kosmatom gradu u razdoblju infeudacije od 8. do 11. st. Može se pretpostaviti čemu je sve služio po osobini istarskih kaštela tog vremena. Tada većina feudalaca nije trajno boravila na svom posjedu, pa burgove (kaštele) koje su podignuli ili primili u leno skupa s posjedom istovremeno su bili fortifikacije, skladišta hrane i sudišta. U ranom srednjem vijeku istarski kašteli strukturom su podudarni sa sličnim građevinama po Europi, osobito s onima u sjevernoj Italiji, Austriji i Bavarskoj. Sastoji su se od utvrđene kule (donjona), dvora, kućišta (palas), gospodarskih građevina (štale, skladišta, šterne) te pristupnih fortifikacija (predstraže, opkopi).
Sa zapadne strane je glavni ulaz. Iz glavnog ulaza put vodi ka glavnoj kuli, čija je namjena bila djelimice stambena. Zaštitu kuli činila su dva obrambena zida. Sa sjevera i zapada tvorili su dva dvorišta, koja su bila povezana drugim ulazom uz sjeverozapadni ugao kule. Ka istoku se prolazom kroz treća vrata dolazilo se do crkvice sv. Marije Magdalene. Iz vanjskog dvorišta se stubištem penjalo do glavne zgrade za stanovanje u sklopu kaštela.
Branič-kula je najbolje očuvana građevina u kompleksu i nalazi se na vrhu manje kamene litice, na krajnjem zapadnom uglu gradske jezgre, i iznad ostalih ostataka utvrde izdiže se nekoliko metara. Zidovi su bili široki 2 m na jugu i istoku te do 4 m na ostalim stranama pa se čini da je bila samo za obranu. Visoka je dvadeset metara, na tri kata, a tlocrt je nepravilni peterokut. Gradska jezgra je na hrbatu brježuljka i prevladava kompeksom. Vanjski pojas utvrda okružuje jezgru sa zapada, sjevera i juga. Utvrda prati konfiguraciju terena pa je izdužena u smjeru istok - zapad. Najbolje očuvana cjelina u kompleksu je zatvorena gradska jezgra koja je bila smještena odmah do ulaza. Peterokutna je tlocrta. U nju se ulazilo kroz manja vrata koja su bila na istočnom dijelu zida. Dodatna zaštita vrata je manji obrambeni zid. Unutarnje dvorište od jezgre prostiralo se cijelom istočnom polovicom. Velika palača (palas) bila je na zapadnoj polovici i imala je četiri etaže. Vanjsko stubište i drveni trijemovi povezivali su katove. Sjeveroistočni dio dvorišta udomio je zgradu koju je nekad natkrivao dugi dvostriješni krov.

نخر العظام السكري (بالإنجليزية:Diabetic myonecrosis), هي إحدى المضاعفات النادرة لمرض السكري. تنتج بسبب احتشاء نسيج عضلي، غالباً ما تكون في الفخذ.

في علم الأوبئة
متوسط العمر عند العرض سبع وثلاثون سنة مع تقرير المدى للإصابة من تسعة عشر إلى أربعة وستين عاما. متوسط العمر منذ بداية تشخيص مرض السكري هو خمسة عشر عاما. نسبة الإناث: الذكور هي 1:1.3. مضاعفات أخرى لمرضى السكري، مثل nephropathy، الاعتلال العصبي، و retinopathy وفرط ضغط الدم. أهم الاعراض الحادة هي بداية ألم عضلي، وعادة ما يكون موضع الألم في الفخذ، وفي حالة عدم وجود الصدمة. وتشمل علامات الإصابة أشياء مثل:
 حساسية حادة في العضلات.
 تورم في العضلات.
 انتفاخ في العضلات.

العلاج
العلاج لهذا المرض، يكون بتناول المسكنات المناسبة وتناول أدوية مضادة للالتهاب، يجب أيضاً التقليل والحد من ممارسة التمارين الرياضية لأنها تزيد من الألم وتوسع منطقة الاحتشاء. الأعراض عادةً ما تبدِّد من أسابيع إلى شهور، ولكن خمسين بالمئة من الذين يعانون من الأعراض سوف يختبرون حالة من النكسة في كلا القدمين. أغلب الذين تم تشخيصهم بـ (نخر العظام السكري), سوف يموتون خلال 5 سنوات، إلاّ ما شاء الله.

In algebraic geometry, the Zariski tangent space is a construction that defines a tangent space at a point P on an algebraic variety V (and more generally). It does not use differential calculus, being based directly on abstract algebra, and in the most concrete cases just the theory of a system of linear equations.

Motivation
For example, suppose given a plane curve C defined by a polynomial equation

F(X,Y) = 0

and take P to be the origin (0,0). Erasing terms of higher order than 1 would produce a 'linearised' equation reading

L(X,Y) = 0

in which all terms XaYb have been discarded if a + b > 1.

We have two cases: L may be 0, or it may be the equation of a line. In the first case the (Zariski) tangent space to C at (0,0) is the whole plane, considered as a two-dimensional affine space. In the second case, the tangent space is that line, considered as affine space. (The question of the origin comes up, when we take P as a general point on C; it is better to say 'affine space' and then note that P is a natural origin, rather than insist directly that it is a vector space.)

It is easy to see that over the real field we can obtain L in terms of the first partial derivatives of F. When those both are 0 at P, we have a singular point (double point, cusp or something more complicated). The general definition is that singular points of C are the cases when the tangent space has dimension 2.

Definition
The cotangent space of a local ring R, with maximal ideal  is defined to be

where 2 is given by the product of ideals. It is a vector space over the residue field k:= R/. Its dual (as a k-vector space) is called tangent space of R.

This definition is a generalization of the above example to higher dimensions: suppose given an affine algebraic variety V and a point v of V. Morally, modding out 2 corresponds to dropping the non-linear terms from the equations defining V inside some affine space, therefore giving a system of linear equations that define the tangent space.

The tangent space  and cotangent space  to a scheme X at a point P is the (co)tangent space of . Due to the functoriality of Spec, the natural quotient map  induces a homomorphism  for X=Spec(R), P a point in Y=Spec(R/I). This is used to embed  in . Since morphisms of fields are injective, the surjection of the residue fields induced by g is an isomorphism. Then a morphism k of the cotangent spaces is induced by g, given by

Since this is a surjection, the transpose  is an injection.

(One often defines the tangent and cotangent spaces for a manifold in the analogous manner.)

Analytic functions
If V is a subvariety of an n-dimensional vector space, defined by an ideal I, then R = Fn / I, where Fn is the ring of smooth/analytic/holomorphic functions on this vector space.  The Zariski tangent space at x is
mn / (I+mn2),
where mn is the maximal ideal consisting of those functions in Fn vanishing at x.

In the planar example above, I = (F(X,Y)), and I+m2 = (L(X,Y))+m2.

Properties
If R is a Noetherian local ring, the dimension of the tangent space is at least the dimension of R:
dim m/m2 ≧ dim R

R is called regular if equality holds. In a more geometric parlance, when R is the local ring of a variety V at a point v, one also says that v is a regular point. Otherwise it is called a singular point.

The tangent space has an interpretation in terms of K[t]/(t2), the dual numbers for K; in the parlance of schemes, morphisms from Spec K[t]/(t2) to a scheme X over K correspond to a choice of a rational point x ∈ X(k) and an element of the tangent space at x. Therefore, one also talks about tangent vectors. See also: tangent space to a functor.

In general, the dimension of the Zariski tangent space can be extremely large.  For example, let  be the ring of continuously differentiable real-valued functions on .  Define  to be the ring of germs of such functions at the origin.  Then R is a local ring, and its maximal ideal m consists of all germs which vanish at the origin.  The functions  for  define linearly independent vectors in the Zariski cotangent space , so the dimension of  is at least the , the cardinality of the continuum.  The dimension of the Zariski tangent space  is therefore at least .  On the other hand, the ring of germs of smooth functions at a point in an n-manifold has an n-dimensional Zariski cotangent space.

Joel Chandler Harris (Eatonton, Georgia, 9 de diciembre de 1845 – Atlanta, 3 de julio de 1908) fue un periodista, folklorista y escritor estadounidense, conocido sobre todo como autor de las Uncle Remus Stories o "Historias del tío Remus", fábulas morales inspiradas en los cuentos tradicionales de los esclavos afroamericanos de su país.

Biografía
El padre, no casado con su madre, la abandonó poco después de que el futuro escritor naciera y por tanto llevó el apellido de la madre, Mary Harris, y por nombre de pila Joel, en homenaje al médico que lo trajo al mundo, con un segundo apellido, Chandler, del tío de su madre. Otro médico prominente, Andrew Reid, dio a la familia Harris una pequeña casa de campo para vivir detrás de su mansión. Mary Harris trabajó como costurera y jardinera para sus vecinos a fin de mantenerse ella y su vástago. Era una lectora voraz e inculcó a su hijo su amor por el lenguaje: "El deseo de escribir-para expresar mis pensamientos surgió cuando oí a mi madre leer El vicario de Wakefield de Oliver Goldsmith", escribió. El Doctor Reid pagó también la matrícula de la escuela de Harris varios años y el joven destacó en lectura y escritura, aunque era conocido principalmente por su sentido del humor, sus repetidas faltas a clase, sus travesuras y sus bromas; este carácter lo ayudó a sobreponerse a la inseguridad que le causaba su condición de hijo ilegítimo, pelirrojo y de ascendencia irlandesa.

Harris pasó su adolescencia trabajando en una plantación de Eatonton y frecuentando los barrios y casas de esclavos, con los que se sentía más a gusto a causa de su condición marginal de hijo ilegítimo. Escuchaba y aprendía el dialecto afroamericano y los relatos tradicionales que luego tanto habrían de influir en su colección de Cuentos del tío Remus. De la plantación salía ocasionalmente para trabajar como cajista y tipógrafo en la imprenta del periódico The Countryman, cuyo editor, Joseph Addison Turner, le permitió leer a los clásicos ingleses y norteamericanos de su biblioteca; al poco le permitió también publicar sus poemas y artículos de humor y crítica literaria. Pasó luego la mayor parte de su vida adulta en Atlanta como periodista, defendiendo la regeneración y reconciliación nacional y racial del Sur y recogiendo muchos de los relatos afroamericanos de tradición oral, proceso en el que ayudaría además a revolucionar la literatura infantil de su tiempo.

Como Joseph Addison Turner cerró The Countryman en mayo de 1866, Joel Harris pasó como tipógrafo a The Telegraph Macon, pero lo abandonó pronto por otros periódicos donde le dejaban escribir hasta recalar como editor asociado en Savannah Morning News, el periódico de mayor circulación de Georgia. En 1872 conoció a Mary Esther LaRose, una francocanadiense de Quebec, y tras un año de noviazgo se casó con ella, en abril de 1873. En los tres años siguientes la pareja tuvo dos hijos, pero tuvieron que abandonar Savannah para evitar una epidemia de fiebre amarilla.

En 1876, Harris aceptó un puesto en Atlanta Constitution, periódico donde permaneció los siguientes 24 años, la mayor parte de ellos asociado a otros escritores como Frank Stanton Lebby y James Whitcomb Riley. Poco después de aceptar este trabajo, comenzó a escribir una nueva serie de artículos, las "Historias del Tío Remus", a fin de "preservar para siempre los recuerdos curiosos de un período que, sin duda, será tristemente tergiversado por los historiadores venideros". Estos artículos fueron muy reimpresos y Harris fue abordado por el editor D. Appleton para que los compilase en un libro. Salió este a la venta casi al final de 1880 y resultó un éxito formidable. Y, aunque los derechos de autor fueron modestos, permitieron que Harris alguilara una casa de seis habitaciones en las afueras de Atlanta para su creciente familia, que más tarde compró, amplió y transformó. Colaboró con cuentos en revistas como Scribner's Monthly, Harper's Magazine y The Century Magazine. Durante las décadas de 1880 y de 1890 probó la novela, la literatura infantil e incluso la traducción desde el francés. Pero raramente se alejaba de su casa y de su jardín salvo para acudir al trabajo. Su esposa tuvo seis hijos más y de los nueve que llegaron a tener seis llegaron a sobrepasar la infancia. El mayor, Julian LaRose Harris, ganó un premio Pulitzer junto a su esposa Julia Collier Harris en 1926 en parte por su "enérgica lucha" contra el Ku Klux Klan. A finales de 1890, Harris sufrió serios problemas de salud derivados de su alcoholismo; se retiró del periódico Constitution en 1900 pero siguió escribiendo novelas y artículos para periódicos como The Saturday Evening Post; se negó a salir de casa para aceptar títulos honoríficos de la Universidad de Pensilvania y la de Emory. En 1905 fue elegido miembro de la Academia Americana de Artes y Letras. Sí aceptó, sin embargo, una invitación a la Casa Blanca del presidente Theodore Roosevelt. El 3 de julio de 1908 Joel Chandler Harris murió de nefritis aguda y las complicaciones sobrevenidas por su cirrosis hepática.
