Real Real-time card game

Posted in Uncategorized by admin on the December 31st, 2007

A real-time card game is a card game in which all players may act simultaneously (that is, in real-time).

The card game Set has a real-time element; in Set, the players are racing to identify patterns in the cards on the table. The concept was also used by James Ernest in his game Falling, and was later expanded in the games Brawl and Fightball.

There are also real-time card games that use a standard deck of 52 playing cards. A large number of real-time card games are in the Slapjack family: players take turns playing cards and then race to “slap” a jack or face card when it is turned up. In this family are Spit, Egyptian Ratscrew, and Nertz.

Another group of real-time card games are related to Spoons, in which players exchange cards asynchronously until one or more players have a certain hand; then the first player to perform a certain action wins. In this family are the 52-card game Pig and Parker Brothers’ Wall-Street-themed Pit.

Estate Hillington, Glasgow

Posted in Uncategorized by admin on the December 31st, 2007

Hillington is a residential suburb and an industrial estate on the southwestern edge of the Scottish city of Glasgow.

The industrial estate and the residential area are divided by the Glasgow to Paisley railway line. Whilst the residential area is located wholly within Glasgow, the greater part of the industrial estate falls under the jurisdiction of neighbouring Renfrewshire.

The industrial estate was opened in 1938 by HRH Queen Elizabeth (later the Queen Mother) and was the first of its kind in Scotland.

The area is served by two railway stations, Hillington East and Hillington West.

Estate Estate (house)

Posted in Uncategorized by admin on the December 31st, 2007
For other uses, see Estate.

An estate comprises the houses and outbuildings and supporting farmland and woods that surround the gardens and grounds of a very large property, such as a country house or mansion. It is an “estate” because the profits from its produce and rents are sufficient to support the household in the house at its center. Thus “the estate” may refer to all other cottages and villages in the same ownership as the mansion itself. An example of such an estate is Woburn Abbey in Bedfordshire, England.

The “park” is specifically the inner part of an estate that is enclosed by walling, hedges or fencing.

“Estate”, with its “stately” connotations, has been a natural candidate for inflationary usage during the 20th century, much as the “landscaping” that can be effected in a front or back yard.

Common usage in the UK sometimes applies the term in a humorous fashion to the land attached to any property, such as a back garden.

In the US, Long Island and other affluent East Coast enclaves had strong traditions of large agricultural estates rivaling those of Europe; however after the 1940’s many were lost and today large houses on a few acres are commonly referred to as “estates”.

Some Traditional American Estates:

  • Meadowfarm, East Islip, New York - Estate of H.B. Hollins (demolished)
  • Westbrook, Great River, New York - Estate of Wm. Bayard Cutting
  • Coe Hall, Oyster Bay, New York - Estate of W.R. Coe
  • Indian Neck Hall, Oakdale, New York - Estate of F.G. Bourne
  • Inisfada,Manhasset, New York - Estate of Nicholas Brady
  • Idle Hour, Oakdale, New York - Estate of Wm. K. Vanderbilt

Real estate notes Title owner

Posted in Uncategorized by admin on the December 31st, 2007

In property law, the title owner the one holding the greatest number of rights, or most important rights in a piece of real estate. As explained by the Bundle of Rights theory, a property can be owned in some sense by many different parties at the same time, through a mortgage, a lease, a lien, a future interest, among many others. In common parlance, the title owner is called the owner, even if we are aware that the property is encumbered by a mortgage.

Socio-economic group Endogamous group

Posted in Uncategorized by admin on the December 31st, 2007

Endogamous group is a community in which the members generally marry within the group. The caste in India and the tribes in many of the cultural regions of the world form endogamous groups.

In multi-ethnic societies with many small populations of distinct ethnicities in proximity to each other, the endogamous groups are generally combinations of similar ethnicities, leading to the social conception of “race”.

The Knanites in Kerala, India is a perfect example for this. Knanites are believed to be migrated from middle east to India in AD345. They have been marrying between themselves only ever since.

Subsidiary of HAL Computer Systems

Posted in Uncategorized by admin on the December 31st, 2007

HAL Computer Systems was a Campbell, CA-based computer manufacturer.
It was started in 1990 by Andrew Heller, a principal designer of the original IBM POWER architecture. His idea was to build computers based on a RISC architecture for
the commercial market. When Fujitsu choose to fund the company, the SPARC architecture
was chosen. Since the designers believed that a 64 bit architecture was necessary for the
commercial workloads, HAL took the initiative in the definition of Version 9 of that architecture.

By the end of 1993, Heller was pushed out of the company and HAL had become a fully owned
subsidiary of Fujitsu.

The company produced multiple generations of computers based on their proprietary Sparc microprocessors.
Their microprocessors combined Out-of-order execution with mainframe-style Reliability, Availability and Serviceability features.
Their SPARC64-I processor beat out Sun’s UltraSPARC-I by a few months to be the first 64-bit Sparc
microprocessor to be produced.

Most of the sales of the company went to the Japanese market.
Fujitsu closed the subsidiary in 2001.

Property Mental property

Posted in Uncategorized by admin on the December 30th, 2007

A mental property or a mind property is a property of a/the mind. Mental properties are studied by many sciences and parasciences. We may only mention: psychology, cognitive sciences and recently also systemics.

There are three main scientific approaches to the study/modeling of mind (properties).

  • The primary is the classical one, it considers mind as an intrinsic property of the human brain only.
  • The second is focused on the engineering research for the development of an abstract/synthetic mind/brain for robots and computers which satisfies requested functional properties.
  • The third is a most universal research, dealing with a concept of generalized/universal and synthetic mind as a possible or existing property of the Universe. Such research is the common interdisciplinary domain of interest of the philosophy of mind, artificial intelligence and different systemic and meta-systemic approches with a strong contribution from physicists and mathematicians.

The basic concrete objective of all these research is to develop such model of mind/intelligence which could be implemented on the computer and could be considered sufficiently “humanlike” or better (?).


Philosophy of mind perspective

A simple concrete example:
If someone pricks you with a pin, you will most likely feel pain. That instance of feeling pain is an instantiation of the property being in (or a) pain.
It is important to distinguish between the predicate ‘is a pain’ which is a linguistic entity, and the property denoted by the predicate. This becomes important in the philosophy of mind when the two are confused, especially concerning intertheoretic reductionism and ontological reductionism.

Potential buyers Equipotential

Posted in Uncategorized by admin on the December 30th, 2007

Equipotential or isopotential in mathematics and physics (especially electronics) refers to a region in space where every point in it is at the same potential. This usually refers to a scalar potential, although it can also be applied to vector potentials. Often, equipotential surfaces are used to visualize an (n)-dimensional scalar potential function in (n-1) dimensional space.

Note that an equipotential region might be referred as being ‘of equipotential’ or simply be called ‘an equipotential’.

For scalar potentials, the gradient in an equipotential region is zero, since there is no change in the value of the potential. This is important in physics because the force on a body is often determined by the gradient of that force’s potential function.

For example, there is zero electric field in an equipotential region (that is, a region of constant voltage). A charged particle in such a region experiences no electric force. Thus, there is no electric cur
