The term "side-project" is sometimes used pejoratively: it is usual for members of popular groups – especially those who have little or no input into the creative process of their group – to take part in side-projects with the expectation that the reputation of the "main" group will propel the side group forward regardless of the project's own merits. There are several examples of side-projects within music; many bands encourage their members to take part in them, thinking that new creative situations will cause new ideas to be br ...

Working in partnership with the people in Zambia the Project seeks to help, support and empower the host communities to develop solutions to their problems and difficulties. The Project also seeks to raise awareness of the conditions and causes that offend the human dignity of so many people throughout the world and to forge close bonds of solidarity between communities in Ireland and communities in Zambia. Intended to link and unite people in Ireland and Zambia, it is hoped that it will help to transform lives and communities in both the ri ...

Project management tries to gain control over five variables: time - The amount of time required to complete the project. Typically broken down for analytical purposes into the time required to complete the components of the project, which is then further broken down into the time required to complete each task contributing to the completion of each component. cost - Calculated from the time variable. Cost to develop an internal project is time multiplied by the cost of the team members involved. When hiring an independ ...

Within orthographic projection there is an ancillary category known as pictorials. Pictorials show an image of an object as viewed from a skew direction in order to reveal all three directions (axes) of space in one picture. Orthographic pictorial, rote, instrument drawings are often used to approximate graphical perspective projections, but there is attendant distortion in the approximation. Because Pictorial projections innately contain this distortion, in the rote, instrument drawing of Pictorials, great liberties may ...

Project Gutenberg was started by Michael Hart in 1971. Hart, a student at the University of Illinois, obtained access to a Xerox Sigma V mainframe computer in the university's Materials Research Lab. Through friendly operators, he received an account with a virtually unlimited amount of computer time; its value has since been variously estimated at $100,000 or $100,000,000. Hart has said he wanted to "give back" this gift by doing something th ...

Orthogonal projections are self-adjoint projections. One such common projection is the projection of one vector in Rn onto another. For example, we can project the vector (1/2, 1/2)T onto the vector (0, 1)T, to get the vector (0, 1/2)T. We can describe in general the projection of one vector u onto another, v by where the dot represents the dot product. Since an inner product generalizes the idea of a dot product, then we have the equivalent f ...

The U.S. Border Patrol Local 2544, which covers the Tucson sector of the border, has endorsed the Minuteman Project. "We want to make it clear – because we've had a lot of questions about this – we have not had one single complaint from a rank-and-file agent in this sector about the Minutemen," reportedly said a statement on the local border patrol site which appears to have since been removed. "Every report we've received indicates these people are very supportive of the rank-and-file agents; they're courteous. Many of them are retired firefighters, cops, and other ...

PROJECTIVE HAND - the hand with which one "sends" energy. The projective hand is usually the hand with which one writes.

Project management was not used as an isolated concept before the Sputnik crisis of the Cold War. After this crisis, the United States Department of Defense needed to speed up the military project process. New tools (models) for achieving this goal were invented. In 1958 they invented the Program Evaluation and Review Technique or PERT, as part of the Polaris missile submarine program. At the same time, the DuPont corporation invented a similar model called CPM, critical path method. PERT was later extended with a work breakdown structure or WBS. The process flow and structure of the ...

The Genesis Project was first proposed to the Federation in the early 2280's. Over several years, the scientists developed a Genesis matrix and a three-stage test. The first stage was conducted in their laboratory in orbit around Regula. For the second stage, Starfleet engineers took ten months to excavate a large cavern within Regula I. The scientists then released the Genesis matrix in to the cavern, and in within a day, a habitable biosphere developed within that cavern. As Carol Marcus later explained, the life forms "grew l ...

Project Genesis used an energy matrix to rearrange matter at the molecular stage into life-giving matter of equal mass. This energy matrix was programmable so that the end result could be customized to current needs. When detonated, the energy matrix was designed to cover a dead planetary body and begin the transformation process. Within minutes, the matrix would spread over the entire planet, rearranging the matter that it came across. Soon afterward, the planet would develop a habitable b ...

Project MAC was started on July 1, 1963 with initial funding from a two-million-dollar DARPA grant. Project MAC's original director was Robert Fano. The program manager responsible for the DARPA grant was J.C.R. Licklider, who had previously been at MIT and would later succeed Fano as director of Project MAC. Project MAC was principally funded by DARPA and the National Science Foundation. (Fano decided to call MAC a "project" rather than a "laboratory" for reasons of internal MIT politics -- if MAC had been called a laboratory, then it would have been more difficult to raid oth ...

The Orion nuclear pulse drive combines a very high exhaust velocity, from 20,000 to 30,000,000 m/s, with meganewtons of thrust. Many spacecraft propulsion drives can achieve one of these or the other, but nuclear pulse rockets are the only existing technology that delivers both. (see spacecraft propulsion for more speculative systems) Specific impulse measures how much thrust can be derived from a given mass of fuel, and ...

Astral Projection: An experience in which the conscious part of the self splits form the body for a period of time. The typical out-of-body experience is of short duration and comes unexpectedly. But it can be induced consciously and deliberately.

Projectors claim that during an astral voyage, communication with other projectors or spirits is possible. Sometimes the projector reported being attached to his/her physical body by a silver cord analogous to the umbilical cord. Pets have been said to react in a frightened manner when encountering a projector, and some people claim to have seen an astrally projecting person's spirit as a colored ...

Stereographic projection - Polar coordinates. On a sphere, let φ be azimuth and θ be co-latitude (angular distance from the pole). Let R be the radius of the sphere. Let the points of the sphere be projected stereographically onto a plane which is tangent to the pole. Let the points of the projection have coordinates ρP (radial distance away from origin) and θP. Then the projection is If θL is, instead, the latitude, then the equation for ρP changes to < ...
