Emacs Org-mode – a system for note-taking and project planning

Posted on May 14th, 2010 by admin

Google Tech Talks
July 15, 2008

ABSTRACT

Org-mode is a large Emacs sub-systems that has been integrated into
Emacs with the version 22.1 release. From it original intend,
Org-mode is a system for structured note-taking and project planning.
It uses strictly plain text files, making it a truly portable,
system-independent solution. The project-planning features are
implemented using a fairly simple outlining paradigm, upon which
meta-data concepts like due dates, priorities, TODO states and tags
are overlayed in a non-intrusive way. Besides outlining the system
and its basic concepts, I will give background information into the
history of Org-mode and discuss the properties of such an evolved
system compared to a top-down designed one. Finally, I will also
briefly touch on some technical aspects that may be interesting for
Emacs wizards and developers.

How does the respiratory system connect to other bodily systems?

Posted on May 13th, 2010 by admin

I’m doing a science project, and talking about how Pulmonologoy and the respiratory system relates to other bodily system. I’ve already found info on the Digestive and and Cardiology system, but I’m at a loss for how it relates to the Endocrine, Excretory and Nervous systems. If you know any or all, please answer! Thanks so much!

nervous system: there are nerves that enervate the diaphragm (and thoracic muscles), which are critical to muscular manipulation of the lung volume.

Endocrine: see renin-angiotensin system.

Excretory: perhaps the surfactant excretions that decrease surface energies, so that the lung doesn’t collapse onto itself.

What is the difference between common law systems and civil law systems?

Posted on May 11th, 2010 by admin

The difference between common law systems and civil law systems seems a little fuzzy to me. The United States is considered to be purely a common law system, but aren’t our codified Constitution and the United States Code, in addition to binding judicial precedent, more indicative of a combined common/civil law system? If not, then what exactly sets civil law systems (as in Europe) or combined common/civil systems (as in Louisiana, Quebec, and Scotland) apart from common law systems?

The term common law is ambiguous. It can be used to describe the entire system or it can be used to refer to the case law within a common law system, to refer to the system as a whole a better term might be the ‘adversarial system’. This is what we have in England, the United States, Australia, Hong Kong and South Africa amongst others. The main feature of this system is that there are TWO types of law which are binding (case law and legislation) whereas in the civil system, past cases can be taken into account but they are not binding. Another significant difference is that in civil law countries the judge plays a much more important role in determining proceedings, they form part of the case. The Adversarial system emphasizes the debate between the two parties and the judge merely directs the jury and ensures that etiquette is followed. Also, in a civil system academic articles can be considered whereas in our adversarial system an academic article is essentially useless until it is included in legislation. These are the most significant differences.

What systems in the body besides the urinary system works with the reproductive system or testis?

Posted on May 8th, 2010 by admin

I have a project over "The Human Body Corporation" we are supposed to say why we shouldn’t be fired and tell what systems in the body work with our organ. I got the testis and therefore have to find things that relate with the reproductive system.

Why you shouldn’t be fired? Whaaa?

Well, the urinary system doesn’t "work with" the reproductive system or testis. They interact, but don’t work together per se. It is even less true in the female body. In the male body, you have the epididymis that produces the sperm, the prostate provides the seminal fluid which mixes with the sperm, and then exits through the urethra, which is also where the urine from your kidney exits.

If anything I would say your circulatory system works with the testis. Blood flow is very important in reproduction. It engorges the penis for one. And the circulatory system provides blood flow, feeding the cells nutrients in the testicles.

Definitely the endocrine system: communication within the body using hormones made by endocrine glands such as the hypothalamus, pituitary or pituitary gland, pineal body or pineal gland, thyroid, parathyroids and adrenals, i.e., adrenal glands. Gets the heart pumping and hormones flowing, affecting, or initiating the orgasm.

And in general I guess the nervous system: collecting, transferring and processing information with brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves and nerves. I guess to process what is going on, getting turned on, having intercourse, and the movements, etc, that will affect the testis indirectly.

I guess even the respiratory system interacts with the testis indirectly, if you say that the lungs provide oxygen to the blood, which flows via the circulatory system to provide nutrients to the testis. It’s a pretty broad question.

System Of A Down – Toxicity #12

Posted on May 6th, 2010 by admin

System Of A Down
Album: Toxicity
Song: Toxicity
Year: 2001
Lyrics:

Conversion, software version 7.0,
Looking at life through the eyes of a tire hub,
Eating seeds as a pastime activity,
The toxicity of our city, of our city,

no, what do you own the world?
How do you own disorder, disorder,
Now, somewhere between the sacred silence,
Sacred silence and sleep,
Somewhere, between the sacred silence and sleep,
Disorder, disorder, disorder.

More wood for their fires, loud neightbors,
Flashlight reveries caught in the headlights of a truck,
Eating seeds as a pastime activity,
The toxicity of our city, of our city,

no, what do you own the world?
How do you own disorder, disorder,
Now, somewhere between the sacred silence,
Sacred silence and sleep,
Somewhere, between the sacred silence and sleep,
Disorder, disorder, disorder.

new, what do you own the world?
How do you own disorder….
Now, somewhere between the sacred silence,
Sacred silence and sleep,
Somewhere, between the sacred silence and sleep,
Disorder, disorder, disorder.

When I became the sun,
I shone life into the man’s hearts,
When I became the sun,
I shone life into the man’s hearts.
