What scientist and inventor was responsible for the Decibel unit of measurement?

ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL INVENTOR OF THE TELEPHONE Alexander Graham Bell (March 3, 1847 � August 2, 1922) was a Scottish -born scientist and inventor . Today, Bell is still widely considered to be the foremost inventor of the telephone, although this matter has become controversial, with a number of people claiming that Antonio Meucci was the 'real' inventor (in June 2002, the United States House of Representatives passed a symbolic bill officially recognizing Meucci for his contributions to the invention of the telephone). Others advance Elisha Gray, the founder of the Western Electric Manufacturing Company. (It is reasonably clear that each of these men independently invented a telephone.) In addition to Bell's work in telecommunications technology, he was responsible for important advances in aviation and hydrofoil technology. Biography Born Alexander Bell in Edinburgh on March 3, 1847, he later adopted the middle name Graham out of admiration for Alexander Graham, a family friend. Many called Bell "the father of the Deaf." This title may be regarded as somewhat ironic due to his belief in the practice of eugenics. He hoped to one day eliminate hereditary deafness from the population. His family was associated with the teaching of elocution: his grandfather in London , his uncle in Dublin , and his father, Alexander Melville Bell, in Edinburgh, were all professed elocutionists. The latter has published a variety of works on the subject, several of which are well known, especially his treatise on Visible Speech, which appeared in Edinburgh in 1868. In this he explains his method of instructing deaf mutes, by means of their eyesight, how to articulate words, and also how to read what other persons are saying by the motions of their lips. Alexander Graham Bell was educated at the Royal High School of Edinburgh, from which he graduated at the age of 13. At the age of 16 he secured a position as a pupil-teacher of elocution and music in Weston House Academy, at Elgin , Moray, Scotland. The next year he spent at the University of Edinburgh. He was graduated from University College London. From 1866 to 1867, he was an instructor at Somersetshire College at Bath, Somerset, England . While still in Scotland he is said to have turned his attention to the science of acoustics, with a view to ameliorate the deafness of his mother. In 1870, at the age of 23, he emigrated with his family to Canada where they settled at Brantford. Before he left Scotland, Bell had turned his attention to telephony, and in Canada he continued an interest in communication machines. He designed a piano which could transmit its music to a distance by means of electricity. In 1873, he accompanied his father to Montreal, Canada, where he was employed in teaching the system of visible speech. The elder Bell was invited to introduce the system into a large day-school for mutes at Boston, but he declined the post in favor of his son, who became Professor of Vocal Physiology and Elocution at Boston University's School of Oratory. At Boston University he continued his research in the same field, and endeavored to produce a telephone which would not only send musical notes, but articulate speech. With financing from his American father-in-law, on March 7, 1876, the U.S. Patent Office granted him Patent Number 174,465 covering the telephone:- "the method of, and apparatus for, transmitting vocal or other sounds telegraphically � by causing electrical undulations, similar in form to the vibrations of the air accompanying the said vocal or other sound" After obtaining the patent for the telep

Is Cambridge University easy to get into for U.S. students?

The only constraint (apart from the usual, implied academic hurdles - which are the same as any UK student) is the number of overseas students that individual colleges can take. To the best of my knowledge, there is a maximum number of overseas students per subject that can be taken, and you'll need to be in that top % to stand a chance.\n\nThis page may help, too:\nhttp://www.cam.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/info/faq.html#international\n\nAnd do bear in mind the overseas tuition fees are much higher than they are for UK nationals.

Why is the Earth's crust divided into continents and ocean basins? How and why did they form this way, with continents elevated several kilometers above the ocean floor?
|
The fundamental reason continents correlate with positive relief and oceanic crust with negative relief ties into the interplay of density, buoyancy and isostasy. Oceanic and continental crust are fundamentally different. Oceanic crust is thin (about 5 - 10 km) and relatively dense (3 to 3.3 g/cm^3 ) while continental crust is thicker (30 - 50 km) and less dense (about 2.7 g/cm^3 ). Both float on top of the aesthenosphere, and buoyancy determines where the flottation line of each lies. Given the greater thickness and lower density of continental crust, it floats at a higher level than oceanic crust which is thinner and denser.

What name is given to scoring a single, double and treble of the same number in three darts?
|
Darts 501 - Terms and Meanings The centre of the board. (see also: "SINGLE-BULL" and "DOUBLE-BULL") Score of 50 BUST / BUSTED Hitting more than you needed in an x01 game. The darts do not count and the player begins his next turn on the same score he had prior to. C C In a Cricket game this refers to high scores base on the number of darts scored. For example a triple-20, single-20, single-20 would be called a C-5 because "5 darts" were scored with three darts. CHAMPAGNE BREAKFAST Hitting treble 20, treble 1 and treble 5 in three darts (see "BREAKFAST") CHALKING Keeping score / marking the game. CHIPS A score of 26. (See also: "BREAKFAST /BED & BREAKFAST") CHUCKER A player who just "chucks" the darts at the board, doesn't aim or care. CIRCLE IT When a player scores a single digit (less than 10) with three darts, his team-mates would shout out "Circle it!" to the scorekeeper to highlight the terrible throw. A variation on this tradition is to draw a fish around the score, often leading to aquarium-related jokes being aimed at particularly poor or unlucky players. CLOCK The dartboard itself, usually in the context of "ROUND THE CLOCK". CORK The centre of the board. This comes from the cork in the end of a keg where it is tapped. The ends of kegs were used for targets in the game's early days. D DARTITIS Name given to a mental state of a dart thrower unable to release his / her dart during a throw. DEVIL The treble-6, so called due to '666', and the fact that it is often hit in error when going for treble-13 or treble-10. DIDDLE FOR THE MIDDLE A throw to see who gets one dart closer to the bullseye to determine who throws first in the game. Also known as a "BULL OFF", "MIDDLE FOR MIDDLE" and "OUT FOR BULL". DOUBLE The thin outer ring of the board. In standard x01 games, a double counts for two times the number hit. DOUBLE-BULL On dartboards configured with a bullseye consisting of two concentric circles, the outer circle is commonly green and worth 25 and the inner circle is commonly red and worth 50 points. Hitting the innermost ring of this type of bullseye is a "DOUBLE-BULL". (See also: "BULLSEYE") DOUBLE IN (DI) A variant of x01 in which a double is needed to start the game. DOUBLE OUT (DO) Hitting the double of a number to win a game of 'x01 DOUBLE TOP Not being able to hit the double needed to win the game. DOWNSTAIRS The lower portion of the board, usually in reference to the 19s in a game of x01. E A game that requires no special shot to begin scoring. FAT The largest portion of a number (the area between the double and triple ring) FEATHERS The 'feathers'/ Flights of the dart which makes the dart more aerodynamic FLIGHTS The "wings" at the end of a dart that make it fly straight. Also known as feathers. G Advises all players that the match has now started GAME SHOT Signifies that the match winning double has been hit GOOD GROUP A compliment for tight, accurate throwing. GRAND SLAM Hitting the T5, T20 & T1 in one throw. GRANNY A lose without scoring, see SHUT OUT cricket game H HAIL MARY The third dart that miraculously scores a high treble where the first two combined scored low single numbers HAT TRICK A score of three bullseyes in a single throw. HIGH TON Scoring between 151-180 points in a game of '01 HOCKEY The throw or Toe line. See 'Oche' Oche is pronounced as Hockey I ISLAND The actual playable area of a dart board (inside the doubles ring). Missing this area entirely is sometimes referred to as "Off the island". J K KILLER A game variant where a number of players "own" a number on the dartboard and compete to build up "lives" (by hitting that number) until a threshold is reached (usually 4 or 6) before attempting to "kill" other players by removing the lives they have built up (by hitting those other players' numbers) until a single player is left. L LEG One game of a match. Most professional matches are made up of a number of sets, each of which is split into legs. LEG SHOT Signifies that a player has completed (Won) the "leg" as per Game Shot. LIPSTICK Nam

Im from Western Australia how do I become a Wedding Planner?
|
The problem is that most courses like "Wedding Planning" actually don't lead to any work. In this business it is experience that is A&O. The best two ways to get that experience is to contact a Wedding planner/company in for ex Sidney, tell them that you have a deep desire to do this kind of work, and then ask to do a mounth practice at there office or side-by-side with an experienced planner(that mounth will probebly be unpayed, so you need some savings). If they think you have potential to exceed in that carrer, they might take you on as a wedding-assistant and train you up to be a Wedding Planner. This is by far the best option to get into a very competetive business, and you will bypass LOADS of outher people with "WP-courses" behind them. The outher thing you can do means a lot more work from you from day one, but you don't need to move to do it. Plead with your friends(and even people you used to know from school, but only know by name). Offer to take care of all there arrrangemangs for there wedding-day(for FREE) and tell them they only have to pay for the actual cost of the arrangements, such as the food, the venue, the Church etc, but you give your services for free. This will not only give you a lot of important experience, but if the wedding goes well and smouth, use them as a reference. I can promiss you one thing: If it (the wedding-arrangements) go goes well and the cuple are happy, they will tell there friends and you will get work automatically... but by then you need to charge for your services. Good Luck!!!

President Barack Obama prodded Congress to eliminate the United States' decades-old Cuba embargo Friday, saying that improving relations with the communist country will help open its "hermetically sealed society" -- even if changes come in "fits and starts." He said he doesn't expect lawmakers to strip the embargo away immediately, and that Congress will need time to digest a deal he struck this week to free American contractor Alan Gross, trade imprisoned spies and ease U.S. economic restrictions on Cuba in exchange for the release of dozens of political prisoners and expanded Internet there. His comments came during a feisty year-end news conference Friday, just hours before Obama and his family boarded Air Force One for a holiday vacation in Hawaii. "I don't anticipate overnight changes. But what I know deep in my bones is that if you've done the same thing for 50 years and nothing's changed, you should try something different if you want a different outcome, and this gives us an opportunity for a different outcome, because suddenly Cuba is open to the world in ways that it has not been before," Obama said. "The more the Cuban people see what's possible, the more interested they are going to be in change. But how societies change is country-specific. It's culture-specific," he said. Obama offered some notes of caution, saying a presidential visit Cuba or Cuban President Raul Castro coming to the United States isn't "in the cards." His moves have already triggered controversy among potential Republican 2016 presidential contenders. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who accused Obama of giving up leverage, is sparring with Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, who advocates a smaller U.S. footprint overseas. Obama said he expects a "healthy debate" to rage in Congress. "I think that ultimately we need to go ahead and pull down the embargo, which I think has been self-defeating in advancing the aims that we're interested in," Obama said. "But I don't anticipate that that happens right away." Obama sounded an optimistic tone, saying he is "energized" and "excited" about the final two years of his presidency even after Democrats in Congress were shellacked in November's midterm election. "My presidency is entering the fourth quarter," Obama said. "Interesting stuff happens in the fourth quarter. And I am looking forward to it." The President immediately made headlines by saying Sony "made a mistake" canceling a movie after North Korea's hack. He also drew attention for calling on female journalists for all eight of the questions he took -- which White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said was intentional. "The fact is, there are many women from a variety of news organizations who day-in and day-out do the hard work of covering the President of the United States," Earnest said. "As the questioner list started to come together, we realized that we had a unique opportunity to highlight that fact at the President's closely watched, end of the year news conference." Obama touched on the clashes that are guaranteed to come once Republicans take full control of Congress in January, setting up showdowns over Obama's signature health care law, the Keystone XL pipeline that conservatives would like to green-light, financial regulations and more. He identified international trade and tax reform as areas he might be able to find common ground with the GOP-led House and Senate, and said staff-level conversations will take place between Obama's White House and GOP congressional leadership between now and the Jan. 20 State of the Union address about individual and corporate tax reform. Obama said he'll issue proposals of his own to overhaul the corporate tax structure. "Then there are other companies that are paying zero because they've got better accountants or lawyers. That's not fair," he said. "There are companies that are parking money outside the country because of tax avoidance. We think it's important that everybody pay something if they are effectively headquartered in the United States." But he threatened to veto any bills that would weaken the health care law or rolls back any of the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial services reforms -- which were recently thrust into the spotlight after liberals howled over the roll-back of one of those reforms in a deal this month to fund the government. "I think there are going to be some tough fights on those areas where we disagree," Obama said. "If Republicans seek to take health care away from people who just got it, they will meet stiff resistance from me. If they try to water down consumer protections that we put in place in the aftermath of the financial crisis, I will say no, and I'm confident that I will be able to uphold vetoes on those types of provisions." Here's what Obama said about several other issues Friday: . KEYSTONE PIPELINE -- President Barack Obama said the Keystone XL pipeline -- which Republican congressional leaders have said they intend to approve legislation to authorize early next year -- is "not even going to be a nominal benefit to U.S. consumers." Obama didn't threaten to veto a bill that would take approval of the 1,179-mile, Canada-to-Texas pipeline out of the State Department's hands. But he downplayed its potential effects and said that if Congress wants to create the kinds of construction jobs that could accompany the pipeline, it should instead approve bills to improve the country's infrastructure. "There's very little impact, nominal impact, on U.S. gas prices -- what the average American consumer cares about -- by having this pipeline come through," Obama said. "And sometimes, the way this gets sold is, 'Let's get this oil and it's going to come here,' and the implication is, it's going to lower oil prices here in the United States -- and it's not. There's a global oil market." RACIAL TENSIONS WITH POLICE -- Obama argued that "really concrete, practical" law enforcement reforms will result from a review his administration is currently producing, and sounded an optimistic tone about preventing deaths like Michael Brown's in Ferguson, Missouri and Eric Garner's in New York City in the future. "What I don't think is always captured in our political debates is, the vast majority of people are just trying to do the right thing. And people are basically good and have good intentions," Obama said. "Sometimes our institutions and our systems don't work as well as they should. Sometimes you've got a police department that has gotten into bad habits over a period of time and hasn't maybe surfaced some hidden biases that we all carry around." "But if you offer practical solutions, I think people want to fix these problems," he said. "This isn't a situation where people feel good seeing somebody choked and dying. I think that troubles everybody. So there's an opportunity of all of us to come together and take a practical approach to these problems." THE ECONOMY -- He called 2014 the "strongest year for job growth since the 1990s" and pointing to rising middle class wages, increased energy production and lower gas prices, and highlighted recent economic reports that have identified a 57-month streak of job growth, producing 11 million new positions. "As a country, we have every right to be proud of what we've accomplished: More jobs, more people insured, a growing economy, shrinking deficits, bustling industry, booming energy -- pick any metric that you want; America's resurgence is real. We are better off," Obama said. He said gas prices are 70 cents lower this year than they were last Christmas, and the Obama administration's bailout of the automotive industry is "effectively over." "Yes, there were crises that we had to tackle around the world -- many that were unanticipated," Obama said. "We have more work to do to make sure our economy, our justice system and our government work not just for the few but the many. But there is no doubt we can enter into the new year with renewed confidence that America is making significant strides where it counts." NORTH KOREA'S SONY HACK -- Sony "made a mistake" in halting the release of its film "The Interview" after hackers that the FBI has linked to North Korea stole the company's documents and threatened theaters that showed the film," Obama said. "We cannot have a society where some dictator someplace can start imposing censorship here in the United States, because if somebody is able to intimidate folks out of releasing a satirical movie, imagine what they'll do when they see a documentary that they don't like, or news reports that they don't like -- or even worse, imagine if producers or distributors or others start engaging in self-censorship because they don't want to offend the sensibilities of somebody whose sensibilities probably need to be offended," Obama said. "So, you know, that's not who we are. That's not what America's about. Again, I'm sympathetic that Sony as a private company was worried about liabilities and this and that and the other. I wish they'd spoken to me first. I would have told them, do not get into a pattern in which you're intimidated by these kinds of criminal attacks," he said.

The situation in Egypt and what it has to do with us.
|
Simply put, Egypt is a vital ally to the US in the region and they are also allies with Israel. We also get 1.3 billion dollars of military hardware from the US due to the peace treaty with Israel. Aside from that, we also control the Suez canal which is a vital waterway in the world which helps in transporting goods, and mainly either oil from the middle east or US military carriers. In addition, the previous regime also helped in the CIA rendition program, which is when the US ships high profile prisoners from places such as Gitmo and we "make them talk".

In music, what notation is used to indicate that the note is raised a half tone?
|
Music Notation Symbols Music Notation Symbols Clefs - Notes and Rests - Accidentals - Relationships - Dynamics - Accents - Repeats Music Notation consists of a collection of music symbols that are used to better define the structure of a musical composition. These musical symbols will tell us the pitch that a song is played in, (clefs), the key that it is played using a key signature composed of sharps and flats, a pitch change in the composition, (sharps and flats), and where the silences between the notes are to be played, (rests). Some of theses music symbols also tell us where,and when to emphasize, or de-emphasize a particular segment of the music , ( accents , dynamics), or when to play a passage more than once, (repeats). There are different types of clefs, rests, dynamics, accents, accidentals and repeat symbols used in music notation, each one having a unique characteristic, and their use depends on what the composer wishes to accomplish in his musical score. CLEFS A Clef (from the French for "key") is a musical symbol used to indicate the pitch of written notes. Placed on one of the lines at the beginning of the staff, it indicates the name and pitch of the notes on that line. This line serves as a reference point by which the names of the notes on any other line or space of the staff may be determined. The two clefs that we most commonly use today are the G clef or treble clef, and the F clef or bass clef. G clef (Treble Clef) - The center of the spiral defines the line or space upon which it rests as the pitch range of the composition C clef (Alto Clef) - This clef points to the line (or space, rarely) representing middle C F clef (Bass Clef) - The line or space between the dots in this clef denotes the pitch range Octave Clef - Treble and bass clefs can also be modified by octave numbers Neutral Clef - Used for pitch-less instruments, such as some of those used for percussion NOTES AND RESTS A Rest is an interval of silence in a piece of music, marked by a sign indicating the length of the pause. Each rest symbol corresponds with a particular note value Multi-Measure Rest - Indicates the number of measures in a resting part depending upon the number over the rest Double Bar Line - Used at changes in key signature, major changes in style or tempo, or to separate 2 phrases of music Dotted Bar Line - Divides long measures into shorter segments for ease of reading Beamed Notes -Beams connect and emphasize quavers, (1/8 notes), and shorter note values Ledger Lines - Used to extend the staff to pitches that fall above or below it Breath Mark - In a score, this symbol tells the performer to make a slight pause ACCIDENTALS An accidental is a note whose pitch is not a member of a scale or mode indicated by the most recently applied key signature. In musical notation, the symbols used to mark such notes, sharps, flats, and natural, may also be called accidentals. An accidental sign raises or lowers the following note from its normal pitch, usually by a semitone, although microtonal music may use "fractional" accidental signs, and one occasionally sees double sharps or flats, which raise or lower the indicated note by a whole tone. Accidentals apply within the measure and octave in which they appear and modify the pitch of the notes that follow them on the same staff unless cancelled by an another accidental. Demiflat - Lowers the pitch of a note by one quarter tone Flat - Lowers the pitch of a note by one semitone, or one half step Flat-and-a-Half - Lowers the pitch of a note by three quarter tones Double Flat - Lowers the pitch of a note by two chromatic semitones, or one whole step Natural - Cancels a previous accidental, or modifies the pitch of a sharp or flat as defined by the prevailing key signature Demisharp - Raises the pitch of a note by one quarter tone Sharp - Raises the pitch of a note by one semitone Sharp-and-a-Half - Raises the pitch of a note by three quarter tones Double Sharp - Raises the pitch of a note by two chromatic semito

what is chiken gunya?
|
Chikungunya is a relatively rare form of viral fever caused by an alphavirus that is spread by mosquito bites from the Aedes aegypti mosquito. The name is derived from the Makonde word meaning "that which bends up" in reference to the stooped posture developed as a result of the arthritic symptoms of the disease. The disease was first described by Marion Robinson[1] and W.H.R. Lumsden[2] in 1955, following an outbreak on the Makonde Plateau, along the border between Tanganyika and Mozambique, in 1952. Chikungunya is closely related to O'nyong'nyong virus[3].\n\nChikungunya is not considered to be fatal. However, in 2005-2006, 200 deaths have been associated with chikungunya on Réunion island.

Why are college sports rules different than the majors?
|
There are multiple reasons. 1. Professional athletes are an investment. Whereas college athletes do not get paid and are disposable, for profit teams have a more dedicated interest in the well being of their players. Thus, more rules exist to protect the players. 1b. More rules protecting player safety exist in the pros because the players have collective bargaining agreements, meaning that they can negotiate rules that will protect them (and thus, their careers and incomes). 2. College athletes are not as talented/developed, and thus, rules are looser with regards to specific technical movements. This can be seen with the "one foot in bounds" rule in football, the shorter arc in basketball, and the less strict pass interference rules in football. 3. The different leagues and sports have different cultures. Eventually, the minute differences become a way that each group can differentiate themselves, and they stick around for tradition's sake.

What are some examples of political and economic systems?
|
There is Liberal Deomcracies like the US, UK and most of europe, where people can vote and the government allowed private properties and business and does not interfere too much in the economy. Communism like China and Russia in the past, this is where the government owns everything and people have limited political rights. There is also fascism like Germany and Italy in the Second World War, this is a chaotic system where the government rigidly controls the social structure of the country.\n\nIf I were you I'd look up Liberalism, Socialism, Communism and Fascism on wikipedia or answers.com. Or even better get a book from the library.
