The charge was planned for three Confederate divisions, commanded by Major Generals George Pickett, J. Johnston Pettigrew, and Isaac R. Trimble, consisting of troops from James Longstreet's First Corps and A.P. Hill's Third Corps. Pettigrew commanded brigades from Henry Heth's old division, under Col. Birkett D. Fry (Archer's Brigade), Col. James K. Marshall (Pettigrew's Brigade), Brig. Gen. Joseph R. Davis, and Col. John M. Brockenbrough. Trimble, commanding Dorsey Pender's division, had the brigades of Brig. Gens. Alfred M. Scales and Jame ...

The charge was made by the Light Brigade of the British cavalry, consisting of the 4th and 13th Light Dragoons, 17th Lancers, and the 8th and 11th Hussars, under the command of Major General the Earl of Cardigan. Together with the Heavy Brigade comprising the 4th Royal Irish Dragoon Guards, the 5th Dragoon Guards, the 6th Inniskilling Dragoons and the Scots Greys, commanded by Major General J Yorke-Scarlett, himself a past Commanding Officer of the 5th Dragoon Guards, these units were the main British cavalry force at the battle. Overall ...

There is a persistent myth that the brigade was completely destroyed, which is not true. However, the unit did suffer terribly, with 118 men killed, 127 wounded, and 362 horses lost; after regrouping only 195 men were still with horses. The futility of the action and its reckless bravery prompted the French Marshal Pierre Bosquet to state "C'est magnifique, mais ce n'est pas la guerre." ("It is magnificent, but it is not war.") The Russian commanders are said to have initially believed that the British soldiers must have been drunk. The reputation of the British cavalry was significantly enhanced as a result of the cha ...

Two hundred and thirty CCTV-style cameras, of which 180 are installed at the edge of the zone, video roads in the zone. There are also a number of mobile camera units which may be deployed anywhere in the zone. It is estimated that around 98% of vehicles moving within the zone are caught on camera. The video streams are transmitted to a data centre in Central London where a computer system equipped with Automatic number plate recognition software detects the registration plate of the v ...

In the aftermath of the introduction of the Charge, there were a number of suggestions for its future. Soon after charging commenced, Livingstone announced that he would carry out a formal review of the Charge's success or failure six months after its introduction — brought forward from one year, following the smooth start. On 25 February 2003 Livingstone stated "I can't conceive of any circumstances in the foreseeable future where we would want to change the charge, although perhaps ten years down the line it may be necessary" referring t ...

An atom consists of a postively charged nucleus orbitted by electrons. The nucleus consists of uncharged neutrons and positively charged protons. Electrons are negative charged. In the early part of the twentieth century Ernest Rutherford suggested that the electrons orbitted the dense central nucleus in a manner analgous to planets orbitting the sun. The centripetal force required to keep the electrons in orbit was provided by the Coulomb force of the protons in the nucleus acting upon the electrons; just like the gravitational force of the sun acting ...

In 1913 Neils Bohr refined the rutherford model by stating that the electrons existed in discrete quantized states called energy levels. This meant that the electrons could only occupy orbits at certain energies. The laws of quantum physics apply here, and they don't comply with the laws of classical newtonian mechanics. An electron which is completely free from the atom has an energy of 0 Joules (or 0 Electronvolts). An electron which is described as being at the 'ground state' has an energy which is equal to the ionisation energy of the ato ...

Tennyson's poem, published December 9, 1854 in The Examiner, praises the Brigade, "When can their glory fade? O the wild charge they made!", while mourning the appalling futility of the charge: "Not tho' the soldier knew, someone had blunder'd… Charging an army, while all the world wonder'd." Tennyson wrote the poem inside only a few minutes after reading an account of the battle in The Times, according to his grandson Sir Charles Tennyson. It immediately became h ...

The Charge of the Light Brigade has twice been made the subject of a film. The first, made in 1936 by Michael Curtiz and starring Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland and David Niven, was a Hollywood account inspired by Kipling, blending English public school bravado and a mythical image of British imperialism, The second, deeply critical film was made in 1968, directed by Tony Richardson. It starred John Gielgud and Trevor Howard and aimed to be brutally authentic, based on the research of Cecil Woodham-Smith's The Reason Why (1953). Int ...

CCDs containing grids of pixels are used in digital cameras, optical scanners and video cameras as light-sensing devices. They commonly respond to 70% of the incident light (meaning a quantum efficiency of about 70%,) making them more efficient than photographic film, which captures only about 2% of the incident light. As a result CCDs were rapidly adopted by astronomers. An image is projected by a lens on the capacitor array, causing each capacitor to accumulate an electric charge proportional to the light intensity at that location. ...

Hexaphenylbenzenes like H (fig. 1) lend themselves extremely well to forming charge transfer complexes. Cyclic voltammetry for H displays 4 well separed maxima corresponding to H+ right up to H4+ with the first ionization at E1/2 of only 0.51 eV. oxidation of these arenes by for instance dodecamethylcarboranyl (B) to the blue crystal solid H+B- complex is therefore easy ^{See also:}

More formally, we can use the concepts of vector and differential calculus to express the law in terms of charge density ρ (in coulombs per cubic meter) and electric current density J (in amperes per square meter): . In the mid-nineteenth century, James Clerk Maxwell postulated the existence of electromagnetic waves as a result of his discovery that Ampere's law (in its original form) was inconsistent with the conservation of charge. After correctly reformulating Ampere's law, Maxwell also realized that suc ...

The net current into a volume is where S = ∂V is the boundary of V oriented by outward-pointing normals, and dS is shorthand for NdS, the outward pointing normal of the boundary ∂V. Here is the current density (charge per unit area per unit time) at the surface of the volume. The vector points in the direction of the current flow. From the Divergence theorem this can be written . The net current into a volume must necessarily equal th ...

Digital color cameras generally use a Bayer mask over the CCD. Each square of four pixels has one filtered red, one blue, and two green (the human eye is more sensitive to green than either red or blue). The result of this is that luminance information is collected at every pixel, but the color resolution is lower than the luminance resolution. Better color separation can be reached by three-CCD devices (3CCD) and a dichroic beam splitter prism, that splits the image into red, green and blue components. Each of the three CCDs is arranged to respond to a particular color. Some semi-professional digital video ...

Leo Dennis Kozlowski , a former CEO of Tyco International, was convicted of misappropriating more than $400 million of the company's funds. Kozlowski has been tried twice. The first attempt was a mistrial as one of the jurors who sided with Kozlowski, later claimed that she was threatened. Kozlowski testified on his own behalf during the second trial, stating that his pay package was "confusing" and "almost emb ...
