A brocard is a legal principle expressed in Latin (and often derived from past legal authorities), which is traditionally used to concisely express a wider legal concept or rule. The name comes from the Latinized name of Burchard (died 1025), bishop of Worms, Germany, who compiled 20 volumes of Regulae Ecclesiasticae ("Ecclesiatical Rules") including a collection of maxims. For example, the sentence Inadimplenti non est adimplendum ("One has no need to respect his obligation if the counter-party has not respected his own."), is used in civil law to briefly indicate a principle (adopted in some systems) ...

The normal practice for genizas in the Middle East was to periodically remove the contents and bury them in a cemetery; as a result, few genizas explored in the years following the discovery of the Cairo Geniza produced anything of interest. However, this was practiced by this synagogue, and beginning with the remodelling of the Fustat synagogue (about 1025 CE), the materials deposited here were preserved by the hot, dry climate. The location of this geniza in the attic of the building, and accessible only through a hole in the wall, discour ...

Railguns are being pursued as weapons with projectiles that do not contain explosives, but are given extremely high velocities: 3500 m/s or more (for comparison, the M16 rifle has a muzzle speed of 975-1025 m/s), which would make their kinetic energy equal or superior to the energy yield of an explosive-filled shell of greater mass. This would allow more ammunition to be carried and eliminate the hazards of carrying explosives in a tank or battleship. Also, by firing at higher velocities railguns have greater range, less bullet drop and less ...
