When Letterman moved to CBS and began the Late Show, several of Late Night's long-running comedy bits made the move with him, including his best known bit, the Top Ten List. Letterman renamed a few of his regular bits to avoid legal problems over trademark infringement (NBC cited that what he did on Late Night was "intellectual property" of the network). For example, "Viewer Mail" on NBC became the "CBS Mailbag ...

Both C and Pascal consider character strings to be a special case of an array: char a[100]; type a = packed array [1..100] of char; In both languages, it is up to the programmer to determine the exact length of a character array. However, in C, the method of using a null character (zero) as a "sentinel" for the end of string is supported by the language in the special case of a constant string: char *a; a = "the rain in spain"; In this case, the C language processor automatically adds the null to the end of the consta ...

In commenting on Pascal vs. C, it is certainly germane to mention that some popular Pascal implementations have removed virtually all differences with C by incorporating C methods and contructs into Pascal. Examples include type casts, being able to "coin" a pointer to any variable, local or global, and different types of integers with special promotion properties. These weren't discussed here because those implementations basically reduce the question of "what is the difference between C and Pascal?" to the answer "none". This is cer ...

There are two memory access models that IA-32 supports. One is called Real mode, and the other is called Protected mode. In Real Mode, the processor is limited to accessing a total of just over 1MB of memory, while in Protected mode it can access all of its memory. IA-32 - Real mode. The old DOS operating system required the real mode to work, while newer Windows, Linux and other operating systems usually require the protected mode. Upon power-on (aka booting), the processor initiates itself ...

One of the most obvious characteristics of ordinary glass is that it is transparent to visible light (not all glassy materials are). The transparency is due to an absence of electronic transition states in the range of visible light, and to the fact that such glass is homogeneous on all length scales greater than about a wavelength of visible light (inhomogeneities cause light to be scattered, breaking up any coherent image transmission). Ordinary glass does not allow light at a wavelength of lower than 400 nm, also known as ultraviolet light or UV, to pass. This is due to the addition of c ...

Pure silica (SiO2) has a melting point of about 2000 °C (3600 °F), and while it can be made into glass for special applications (see fused quartz), two other substances are always added to common glass to simplify processing. One is soda (sodium carbonate Na2CO3), or potash, the equivalent potassium compound, which lowers the melting point to about 1000 °C (1800 °F). However, the soda makes the glass water-soluble, which is obviously undesirable, so lime (calcium oxide, CaO) is the third component, added ...

Some artists in glass include Lino Tagliapietra, Sidney Waugh, Rene Lalique, Dale Chihuly, and Louis Comfort Tiffany, who were responsible for extraordinary glass objects.

One common belief is that glass is a super-cooled liquid of practically infinite viscosity when at room temperature. Supporting evidence for this position is that old windows are often thicker at the bottom than at the top. It is then assumed that the glass was once uniform, but has flowed to its new shape. One possible source of this belief is that when panes of glass were commonly made by glassblowers, the technique that was used was to spin molten glass so as to create a round, mostly flat and even plate (the Crown glass pro ...

Debye sheath theory explains the basic behavior of Langmuir probes, but is not complete. Merely inserting an object like a probe into a plasma changes the density, temperature, and potential at the sheath edge and perhaps everywhere. Changing the voltage on the probe will also, in general, change various plasma parameters. Such effects are less well understood than sheath physics, but they can at least in some cases be roughly account ...

Some drydocks are used for the construction of large objects such as parts of bridge or dams. For example the drydock of Neeltje-Jans was used for the construction of the Oosterscheldekering, a large dam in the Netherlands that consists of 62 concrete pillars weighing 18000 tonnes each. The pillars were constructed in a drydock and towed to their final place on the seabed. This drydock however was just a piece of seabottom, surrounded by a dike and was floa ...

Floating

Floating in water can be symbolic of floating on top of your emotions and being in harmony with the unconscious. Floating through the air has the same symbolism as flying. Floating usually represents your current feelings of peacefulness and general freedom. On a more negative note, floating could also be symbolic of your aloofness, lack of connection or a need to become more grounded. In order to interpret any dream appropriately some self evaluation and honesty is required. Meaning of dreams is very personal and specific for each dreamer.
