• Biographie de NICOLAS DE CUES

  NICOLAS DE CUES 1401-1464 CusA n'est évidemment que la transcription latine de Cues; et Cues est un village, sur la Moselle, en face de Bernkastel, dans un pays réputé pour ses vignobles. Le père de Nicolas s'appelait Krebs et, bien que jouissant d'une petite aisance, exerçait le simple métier de batelier. Protégé par le comte de Manderscheid, le jeune garçon fut envoyé à Deventer, chez les Frères de la vie com­ mune, dans le m...

• Nicolas de Cues : De la docte ignorance

  enquêter sur des objets métaphysiques comme Dieu ou l'infini, la raison tombe sur des antinomies qui l'empêchent d'aller plus loin; pour qu'il y ait progrès dans la connais­ sance métaphysique, il faut que la raison discursive s'efface et accepte une rupture de l'intelligence avec la logique. t Étant avant toute chose, Dieu est avant tout logos, puisque c'est Lui qui instaure le logos. Il échappe donc aux principes de la logique qui, s'ils sont contrai...

• Billiards.

  One of the most important snooker players in history was Joe Davis of England, who retired in 1946 after dominating the game for 20 years. He made runs of 100points or more 687 times. This record was later broken by Australia's Horace Lindrum, whose uncle Walter Lindrum was also a world-class billiards player. The mostsuccessful players in recent years include Ireland’s Ken Doherty, Scotland’s Stephen Hendry, and England’s Steve Davis, Jimmy White, and Mark Williams. IV HISTORY Billiards can b...

Îi dădusem numele Pluto, şi-mi devenise tovarăşul favorit de joacă. Pisica nu lăsa pe nimeni altul decât pe mine să-i aducă de mâncare, şi mă urmărea într- una prin casă. Abia izbuteam s-o opresc să nu se ia după mine şi pe stradă. Prietenia noastră a durat ani de-a rândul, ani mulţi în care felul meu de-a fi, întreaga-mi fire — cu aj...

  IV RIVER PATTERNS River patterns, or general shapes, depend on the geologic zone and the climate of the location. There are four river patterns: meandering, braided, anastomosing, andstraight. A meandering pattern follows a winding, turning course. A braided pattern has connected channels that resemble a hair braid. An anastomosing river patterncombines features of the meandering and braided patterns. Some river patterns are simply straight channels. Meandering and braided are the most common...

Né à Cusa, sur les bords de la Moselle, en Allemagne, Nicolas de Cues a suivi des études de droit canonique. il participe au concile de Bâle à partir de 1432. Cet épisode lui inspire sa première œuvre en 1433, le De concordantia catholica. Mais en 1434, il perd un p...

• Animal Behavior - biology.

  The first motor program analyzed in much detail was the egg-rolling response of geese. When a goose sees an egg outside its nest, it stares at the egg, stretches itsneck until its bill is just on the other side of the egg, and then gently rolls the egg back into the nest. At first glance this seems a thoughtful and intelligent piece ofbehavior, but it is a mechanical motor program; almost any smooth, rounded object (the sign stimulus) will release the response. Furthermore, removal of the egg on...

• La Main Gauche Il dit dès la porte: --V'là qu'on a volé un lapin, l'gros gris.

  Le brigadier, son sabre entre les jambes, semblait soucieux. Certes, il était sûr de le prendre si on voulait bien le lui désigner. Dans le cas contraire, il ne répondait point de le découvrir lui-même. Après avoir longtemps réfléchi, il posa cette simple question: —Le connaissez-vous, le voleur? Un pli de malice normande rida la grosse bouche de Lecacheur qui répondit: —Pour l'connaître, non, je l'connais point, vu que j'l'ai pas vu vôler. Si j'l'avais vu, j'y aurais fait manger tout cru, poil...

This synthetic atmosphere is also used in medicine to relieve sufferers of respiratory difficulties because helium moves more easily than nitrogen throughconstricted respiratory passages. In surgery, beams of ionized helium from synchrocyclotron sources are proving useful in treating eye tumors, by stabilizing or evenshrinking the tumors. Such beams are also used to shrink blood-vessel malformations in the brains of patients. Helium is used in inert-gas arc welding for light metals, s...

• Antarctica - geography.

  The geographic South Pole lies near the center of the continent in East Antarctica. This point is where all map lines of longitude converge at the southern end ofEarth’s axis of rotation. Distinct from the geographic south pole is the south magnetic pole, where the lines of force of Earth’s magnetic field emerge vertically,arching upward over the planet to enter Earth again at the north magnetic pole. The south-seeking end of a compass needle points to the south magnetic pole. Thesouth magnetic...

• Senegal - country.

  Although most of the population works in agriculture, Senegal has a growing industrial sector, one of the largest in West Africa. Nevertheless, two cash crops remain atthe foundation of the economy—peanuts and cotton. Important technical and economic assistance has been provided by France and other countries of the EuropeanUnion and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (World Bank). In 2006 the gross domestic product (GDP) was $9.2 billion, or $760.90 a person. A Agriculture...

The timber cut in 2006 amounted to 11.4 million cu m(401 million cu ft). Most of the fish caught in Cameroon come from the country’s rivers and lakes and are consumed locally. However, deep-sea fishing activity isincreasing, especially from the port of Douala. Some 1...

The amount of storm-water drainage to be carried away depends on the amount of rainfall as well as on the runoff or yield of the watershed ( see Drainage). A typical metropolitan area discharges a volume of wastewater equal to about 60 to 80 percent of its total daily water requirements, the rest being used for washingcars and watering lawns, and for manufacturing processes such as food canning and bottling.

• Tanzania - country.

  The population of Tanzania (2008 estimate) is 40,213,162, giving the country an overall population density of 45 persons per sq km (118 per sq mi). Yet the populationdistribution is irregular, with high densities found near fertile soils around Kilimanjaro and the shores of Lake Malawi, and comparatively low density throughout much ofthe interior of the country. In the late 1960s and 1970s the Tanzanian government resettled most of the rural population in collective farming villages as part of i...

• Planetary Science - astronomy.

  III ORIGINS AND COMPOSITIONS OF PLANETS Astronomers believe that planetary systems are formed of elemental materials that were created in the interiors of giant stars. Some of this material comes from giantstars that shed material into space as they age. Most of the matter to form planets, however, comes from stars that explode as supernovas and spread debris enrichedwith the heavier chemical elements into space. According to the currently accepted views, the most likely first stage in the evo...

• LA NOUVELLE IMAGE DU MONDE : DE NICOLAS DE CUES A GIORDANO BRUNO

  cinquante ans, l'image du monde se modifie totalement et cela grâce aux seules armes d'une réflexion théorique sur le cosmos. Copernic excepté, la Renaissance s'essaie sur des idées et des hypothèses : c'est sa grandeur et sa faiblesse. Paradoxalement, le renouveau commence par un retour au passé, par une reprise de !'Antiquité qui conduit à l'éclatement et au dépassement d'wie scolastique épuisée par de trop subtiles analyses...

Levees are built to control the course of rivers, and dams are built to render riversnavigable, store water, and provide electrical power. Evaporation of water behind dams is a serious source of water loss. Increasing urbanization has led to more severeflooding because rainwater reaches streams more rapidly and in greater quantity from areas where the ground has been paved.

  si-a impus-o; si aceasta, cu pretul acceptarii (…) unei vieti grele, plina de privatiuni si intalnind la tot pasul infrangeri, suferinte, umiliri.” 5 Don Quijote confunda cartea cu realitatea si imita modelul expus in cartile de cavalerie a cavalerului ratacitor. Astfel, in capitolul XVIII, cavalerul, aflat in fata a doua turme de oi, ii detaliaza lui Sancho doua armate, atat de mult era invadat de ceea ce citise in cartile de cavalerie. Dorinta sa ii dicteaz...

• Perception (psychology).

  A4 Closure According to the law of closure, we prefer complete forms to incomplete forms. Thus, in the drawing below, we mentally close the gaps and perceive a picture of a duck. This tendency allows us to perceive whole objects from incomplete and imperfect forms. A5 Common Fate The law of common fate leads us to group together objects that move in the same direction. In the following illustration, imagine that three of the balls are moving in one direction, and two of the balls are mo...

• Memory (psychology).

  memory span —how many items people can correctly recall in order. Researchers would show people increasingly long sequences of digits or letters and then ask them to recall as many of the items as they could. In 1956 American psychologist George Miller reviewed many experiments on memory span and concluded that peoplecould hold an average of seven items in short-term memory. He referred to this limit as “the magical number seven, plus or minus two” because the results of thestudies were so consi...

• Social Psychology.

  During the 1960s, American psychologist Stanley Milgram studied a form of social influence stronger than conformity: obedience to authority. In a famous series ofexperiments that attracted controversy about human research ethics, Milgram put each of 1,000 subjects into a situation in which they were ordered by anexperimenter to administer painful electric shocks to a confederate (who did not actually receive any shocks). The subjects in these studies were led to believe that theywere acting as '...
