| | | | | Dirt Dictionary: Encyclopedia II - Mullet haircut - History The mullet became popular in the 1970s, and was greatly popularised by English pop star David Bowie but was known to have been worn long before then. Urban legends have it dating back to 19th Century fishermen with long hair in back to keep them warm, hence the term mullet. The term was also referenced in the 1967 film Cool Hand Luke, starring Paul Newman and George Kennedy, in which Kennedy's character refers to men with long hair as "Mulletheads."
In the 70s, the mullet was a short, square affair. In the 80s, it became big and bouffant, and mullet men often indulged in ano ...

Zappa is Italian for hoe.

| | | | | Dirt Dictionary: Encyclopedia II - Gray Wolf - Taxonomy
Gray Wolf - Classification and relation to the dog.
Much debate has occurred over the relationship between the wolf and the domestic dog. Most authorities see the wolf as the dog's direct ancestor, but others have postulated descent from the Golden Jackal. Because the canids have evolved recently and different canids interbreed readily, untangling the true relationships has presented difficulties. However, molecular systematics now indicate very strongly that domestic dogs and wolves are more closely related than either is to any other canid, and the domestic dog is now normally classified as a subspecies of th ...

The live album capturing this tour, Paul Is Live, parodied the famous Paul Is Dead conspiracy of the late '60s - in both the title, and in the cover art which showed McCartney walking across the famous Abbey Road zebra crossing on his own - once again showing his willingness to acknowledge his Beatles past. (The dog with him is a descendant of Martha, his pet sheepdog from the Beatles years and inspiration for the song "Martha ...

| | | | | | Dirt Dictionary: Encyclopedia II - Popular music - Classical music and popular music The relationship (particularly, the relative value) of classical music and popular music is a controversial question. Some partisans of classical music may claim that classical music constitutes art and popular music only light entertainment. However, many popular works show a high level of artistry and musical innovation and many classical works are unabashedly crowd-pleasing.
The elevation of classical music to a position of special value is closely connected to the conce ...

| | | | | | Dirt Dictionary: Encyclopedia II - Radar - Radar Signal Processing
Radar - Distance measurement.
The easiest way to measure the range of an object is to broadcast a short pulse of radio signal, and then evaluate the time it takes for the reflection to return. The distance is one-half the product of round trip time (because the signal has to travel to the target and then back to the receiver) and the speed of the signal. where c is the speed of light in a vacuum, and τ is the round trip time. For radar the speed of signal is the speed of lig ...

| | | | | Dirt Dictionary: Encyclopedia II - Gray Wolf - Past human perceptions of wolves The relationship between people and wolves has had a very long and turbulent history. Traditionally, humans have viewed wolves negatively, perceiving them to be dangerous or as nuisances to be destroyed.
European folklore exacerbated this negative image, which was brought over to North America as it was settled. During this time, the wilderness was perceived as something to be conquered, settled, and cultivated, as through Manifest Destiny or by man's inherent worldly right. Wolves, for a time, were partially valued for their fur, but ...
