A heterogram from hetero , meaning different , gram , meaning written is a word, phrase, or sentence in which no Letter alphabet letter of the alphabet occurs more than once. An isogram , in which all letters occur an equal number of times, is the same as a heterogram when each letter occurs once. A heterogram may be distinguished from a pangram a holoalphabetic sentence , which uses all of the letters of the alphabet possibly more than once . A perfect heterogram is, however, the same as a perfect pangram, since both consist of all letters of the alphabet with each represented exactly once. Abjad s and abugida s, in which only the consonants are represented in the basic grapheme s, have a naturally high incidence of heterograms.

GUIdancer is an Eclipse software Eclipse based automated GUI test tool from Bredex GmbH which runs as a standalone application or as an Eclipse Plugin. GUIdancer is different from other GUI test tools because automated tests can be written before the application under test AUT is ready. This means that GUIdancer is not a tool which tests an application by recording user actions and replaying them capture replay . Tests can be created from the requirements without access to the AUT, and involve no programming, script or code. GUIdancer tests can be created, run and maintained without support from automation experts. Each Test Step the smallest unit in GUIdancer consists of three pieces of information chosen from interactive dialogs the GUI component to be tested, the action to execute on this component, and the parameters or data the action requires. A Test Step to enter hello into a text field would look like this GUI component Text field Action Enter Text Parameter Hello At the time of Test Step creation, only the action to be executed has to be a fixed value. The GUI component and the data for the Test Step can be added or changed later. In this way, tests are created as generically as possible so that they can easily be reused. Test Steps are joined together to make modular Test Cases. Test Cases can be combined and reused to create running tests or more complex Test Cases. The connection between the test specification and the AUT doesn t have to be made until quite late in the test process. Because of this, GUIdancer is well suited to modern, agile software development processes and Test driven development .

The book tells the story of how in 1956, when Bangkok Beijing relations were tense at the height of the Cold War , Thailand was trying to survive the power struggle between China and the United States in Asia . The new Politics of Thailand Thai government desperately needed American money for its unstable economy, yet it could not ignore the threat posed by China, which had just demonstrated its strength in the Korean Peninsula. While the Thai government openly welcomed Americans and denounced China, the prime minister of Thailand secretly sent the two children of his principal adviser, Sang Phathanothai , to China as a goodwill offering and to be brought up there by Premier Zhou Enlai thus replaying the act of making human pledge practiced in China throughout history. The children became the wards of Premier Zhou Enlai . Sirin was 8 years old her brother 12. The book relates how she was caught up in the Cultural Revolution in the mid 1960s. Accused of the crime of having been reared in a bourgeois Thai people Thai family and by the capitalist sympathizer Zhou, she was forced to denounce her family in public. Then, in an unforeseen turn of events, Sirin becomes a Communist Party of China Communist Party heroine by saving two children in a fire but she was required to announce that her deed was inspired by the teachings of Chairman Mao .

A Short History of the Future is a book by W. Warren Wagar which was first published in 1989 and underwent two substantive revisions 1992 & 1999 . As the book is told as a narrative history of the next 200 years from the vantage point of the year 2200 , the first version imagined a far more prominent role for the Soviet Union, which collapsed shortly after the publication. The final revision incorporates a brief section on the year 1989 as a Revolutionary Year . The first section deals with the present time leading up to Wagar s idea of the seminal event of the 21st Century a devastating nuclear conflict between Europe and the United States which is subsequently known as The Catastrophe. What emerges after The Catastrophe is a socialist world government, which lasts for the next hundred years until the Small Revolution of the late 22nd Century, the description of which closes the book. Central to the philosophy of the world Commonwealth Government which rises after the Catastrophe is what Wagar calls Substantialism. Wagar once stated that what he called Substantialism in the book was his recasting of the ideas of Jean Jaur s . http timothycomeau.com blog ?p 183 1 Each chapter concludes with a selection of a diary or correspondence to give the reader a sense of the daily life of these periods. Along with the socio political developments of the next two hundred years, Wagar also tried to imagine the consequences of solar system colonization, the extension of the life expectancy toward 175 years, and the revision of such things as the education system and professional work. As an historian, Wagar essentially wanted to write a book in which one could fully explore what living in a truly socialist world might be like, or an anarchic one represented by his Small Revolution . Both are continually offered as alternatives to global capitalism without such analysis. Criticism of the book suggested that he was merely replaying the history of the 20th Century along a lengthier ... more details

Blumlein Pair is the name for a Stereophonic sound Various methods of stereo recording stereo recording technique invented by Alan Blumlein for the creation of recordings that &mdash upon replaying through headphones or loudspeakers &mdash recreate the spatial characteristics of the recorded signal. The pair consists of an array of two matched microphone s of bi directional figure 8 pickup pattern, positioned 90 from each other. Ideally, the transducers should occupy the same physical space as this is impossible the microphone capsules are placed as close to each other as physically possible, generally with one centered directly above the other. The array is oriented so that the line bisecting the angle between the two microphones points towards the sound source to be recorded see diagram . The pickup patterns of the pair, combined with their positioning, delivers a high degree of stereo separation in the source signal as well as the room ambiance. The Blumlein pair produces an exceptionally realistic stereo image, but the quality of recordings is highly dependent on the acoustics of the room and the size of the sound source. Both ribbon and condenser microphones can be used for Blumlein pair recording. A few types of stereo ribbon microphones B & O, Royer, AEA have even been purpose built for just this type of recording. Several types of stereo condenser microphone Neumann, AKG, Schoeps have also offered a Blumlein arrangement as one of their possible configurations. In his experiments at EMI with what he called Binaural recording binaural sound, Blumlein did not actually use this technique since he had no figure 8 microphones available, but the theoretical possibility of such a recording method was one of the claims he made in his U.K. patent application in 1931 granted as patent 394325 . This recording technique was named in his honor many years after his death. class wikitable align center Image Bidirectionalpattern.svg 250px align center Image Blumlein Stereo.p ... more details
More footnotes date August 2010 Media spaces are electronic settings in which groups of people can work together, even when they are not present in the same Location geography place and time . In a media space, people can create real time visual and acoustics acoustic environments that span physically separate areas. They can also control the recording, accessing and replaying of images and sounds from those environments. ref Robert Stults, Media Space, Xerox PARC, 1986. ref Media Spaces were the subject of research during the mid and late 1980 s, led by Bob Stults and Steve Harrison, in the Smalltalk group at PARC company Xerox Palo Alto Research Center PARC . The research was carried out in the Design and Media Spaces Area of the Software Concepts Laboratory , as part of a larger inquiry into systems and media to support the social process of design . The Media Space at Xerox PARC was implemented in laboratory sites in Palo Alto, California, and Portland, Oregon. These employed live and recorded audio and video, video and audio switching, networked workstations and servers, and inter site network connection, in order to provide for a form of telepresence within offices and work areas at the two sites. Interactions among staff at the sites were conveyed in real time by video and audio, and by the networked workstations and the interactions were recorded and played back, and digital indexes of the records were prototyped. The live and recorded interactions permitted communications among the connected spaces, as well as asynchronous participation. Recording and retrieval, integrated with persistent live connection, was a major distinguishing feature between Media Space and videoconferencing as it was understood at the time.
