Constraint satisfaction problems are problems with a complete solution, where the order of elements does not matter. The problems consist of a set of variables each of which must be assigned a value, subject to the particular constraints of the problem. Backtracking attempts to try all the combinations in order to obtain a solution. Its strength is that many implementations avoid trying many partial combinations, thus speeding up the running-time. Backtracking ...

Duels could be fought with some sort of sword or, from the 18th Century on, [2] with pistols. For this end special sets of duelling pistols were crafted for the wealthiest of noblemen. At the choice of the offended party, the duel could be: at first blood, in which case the first man to bleed would lose; till one man was heavily wounded and unable to physically continue the duel; to the death, in which case there would be no satisfaction until the other party was mortally wounded; or, in the case of pistol duels, each party would agree to fire one shot each, after which the duel ...

In some countries declining satisfaction with the urban environment is held to blame for continuing migration to smaller towns and rural areas (so-called urban exodus). Successful urban planning can bring benefits to a much larger hinterland or city region and help to reduce both congestion along transport routes and the wastage of energy implied by excessive commuting. A strong belief that the behaviour of individuals living in or frequenting an area can be heavily influenced by its ...

There are generally three broad types of burdens. A legal burden or a burden of persuasion is an obligation that remains on a single party for the duration of the claim. Once the burden has been entirely discharged to the satisfaction of the trier of fact the party carrying the burden will succeed in their claim. For example the presumption of innocence places a legal burden upon the prosecution to prove all elemen ...

Body image is often measured by asking the subject to rate his or her current and ideal body shape using a series of drawings of increasing size. The difference between these two values is the amount of body satisfaction. Unfortunately, this method does not take into account the fact that a person might be aware of being under- or overweight and also satisfied with that circumstance. Consequently, an obese person, whose obesity causes him or her no psychological distress, might be rated as "having a poor ...

He drew up beforehand the plan of the Torstensson War of 1643 - 1645, so brilliantly executed by Lennart Torstensson, and had the satisfaction of severely crippling Denmark by the Treaty of Brömsebro in 1645, which put Gotlandia, Ösel, Jemtia, Herdalia and for thirty years Hallandia in Swedish hands. His later years became embittered by the jealousy of the young Queen Christina of Sweden, who thwarted the old statesman in every direction. He always attributed the exiguity of Sweden's gains by the Peace of Westphalia following the conference in Osnabrück to Christina's undue interference, which merely ...

Traditionally, Arminians have held to the governmental theory of the atonement. A substitutionary view, this doctrine says that Christ suffered as a propitiation in order to demonstrate the seriousness with which God views sin. This is in opposition to the Calvinist penal-satisfaction theory which maintains that Christ died in the sinner's place and stead bearing the punishment due the Elect. Arminians generally have believed that if Christ took humankind's punishment, then forgiveness would not be possible; they believe that punishment and forgiveness are mutually exclusive. (See Hugo ...

The word shit is used by English speakers, but it is considered vulgar, and thus is usually avoided in formal speech. A less vulgar substitute is crap, which while still impolite and/or emphatic, is not considered obscene. The correct vernacular usage of crap is mostly identical, with certain key exceptions (see below). Most people get a good sense of satisfaction from using the word "shit" and it is just a good way ...

Before To the Extreme, he made an indie release titled Hooked. It had most of the tracks which were to be later included on To the Extreme plus a cover of Satisfaction.

The big single from this album was "Ice Ice Baby". But media over-exposure, poor career choices, and negative publicity from revelations about his past le ...

In 1889, the Austrian economist Friedrich Wieser, in "Natural Value," coined the phrase marginal utility for a closely-related phenomenon — the satiation of human appetite for identical increments of a good. "Any one who has just taken a certain quantity of food of a certain kind will not immediately have the same strength of desire for another similar quantity," he wrote. "Within any single period of want every additional act of satisfaction will be estimated less highly than a preceding one obtained from ...

siddhi: (Sanskrit) "Power, accomplishment; perfection."

Extraordinary powers of the soul, developed through consistent meditation and deliberate, grueling, often uncomfortable tapas, or awakened naturally through spiritual maturity and yogic sadhana.

Through the repeated experience of Self Realization, siddhis naturally unfold according to the needs of the individual. Before Self Realization, the use or development of siddhis is among the greatest obstacles on the path because it cultivates ahamkara, I-ness, and militates against the attainment of prapatti, complete submission to the will of God, Gods and guru. Six siddhis in particular are considered primary obstacles to samadhi:

-       clairvoyance (adarsha siddhi or divya siddhi),

-       clairaudience (shravana siddhi or divyashravana),

-       divination (pratibha siddhi),

-       super-feeling (vedana siddhi) and

-       super-taste (asvadana siddhi),

-       supersmell (varta siddhi).

The eight classical siddhis are:

1)    anima: to be as small as an atom;

2)    mahima: to become infinitely large;

3)    laghima: super-lightness, levitation;

4)    prapti: pervasiveness, extension, to be anywhere at will;

5)    prakamya: fulfillment of desires;

6)    vashitva: control of natural forces;

7)    ishititva: supremacy over nature;

8)    kama-avasayitva: complete satisfaction.

The supreme siddhi (parasiddhi) is realization of the Self, Parasiva.

Purusartha - the goals of human attainment. In the Vedic sastras these are classified into four categories: dharma, religious duty; artha, acquisition of wealth; kama, satisfaction of material desires; and moksa, liberation from material existence. Beyond all of these is the development of unalloyed love for the Supreme Lord, who is the embodiment of spiritual bliss and transcendental rasa. This is known as parama-purusartha, the supreme object of attainment.
