Nat King Cole was a famous jazz pianist and singer who was born in 1919 in Montgomery, Alabama. He began playing the piano at age four and dropped out of school at fifteen to pursue a career in music, joining his brother's band in 1936. Though he faced attacks from white supremacists for performing in integrated venues and was criticized by some in the Black community for not being more politically active, Cole went on to become the first African American to host a television show, The Nat "King" Cole Show, which featured many famous musicians.

This document discusses automotive braking systems. It describes how braking systems work by converting kinetic energy to heat energy through friction between moving and non-moving surfaces at each wheel. The most common types of braking systems are disc and drum brakes. It then explains the basic components and functioning of drum brakes, disc brakes, and hydraulic braking systems. Key components discussed include the master cylinder, brake lines, calipers, wheel cylinders, rotors, and pads. Factors that can affect braking performance and types of brake linings are also outlined.
The document discusses dark fiber, which refers to unused fiber optic cable. It notes that dark fiber provides a simple, reliable network without shared services between providers. It also offers predictable, fixed costs that do not change based on usage. The document recommends dark fiber as the most secure fiber optic network option and provides information on E-Rate funding eligibility for dark fiber installations and electronics.
This document discusses GE's cardiovascular imaging systems. It summarizes that GE aims to provide image quality and critical thinking tools for clinicians through innovations in flat panel detector technology. It describes GE systems as versatile and able to adapt to new techniques through an open architecture. The systems are said to allow customization of the cardiovascular environment and unified expansion through standard communication protocols and efficient workflows.
This document provides an overview of mathematical morphology and its applications to image processing. Some key points:
- Mathematical morphology uses concepts from set theory and uses structuring elements to probe and extract image properties. It provides tools for tasks like noise removal, thinning, and shape analysis.
- Basic operations include erosion, dilation, opening, and closing. Erosion shrinks objects while dilation expands them. Opening and closing combine these to smooth contours or fill gaps.
- Hit-or-miss transforms allow detecting specific shapes. Skeletonization reduces objects to 1-pixel wide representations.
- Morphological operations can be applied to binary or grayscale images. Structuring elements are used to specify the neighborhood of pixels
This document provides an overview of automobile engineering and engine components. It begins with definitions of an automobile and self-propelled vehicle. It then lists and describes different types of automobiles based on purpose, capacity, fuel used, wheels, and drive. The document continues by explaining engine locations, types of chassis frames, loads acting on frames, automobile body parts, basic engine parts including cylinders, pistons, connecting rods, and crankshafts. It provides descriptions and functions of key engine components.
This document provides an introduction to beams used in structural steel design. It discusses different types of beams classified based on their geometry and support conditions. Common beam types include straight, curved, tapered, constant cross-section, cantilever, simply supported, continuous, and overhanging beams. Beams are also classified based on their application, such as girders, joists, stringers, purlins, and lintels. Common steel sections used for beams include W-shapes, channels, and open web joists. Bending stresses in beams are also introduced, where compressive stresses occur on the top and tensile on the bottom under positive bending moments.
Electronic fuel injection systems use an electric fuel pump and pressure, rather than engine vacuum, to spray fuel into the engine intake manifold or combustion chambers. This allows for more precise fuel delivery and improved engine performance compared to carbureted systems. Modern systems are computer-controlled and use various sensors to monitor engine operating conditions and adjust fuel delivery accordingly through fuel injectors.

2. СОВРЕМЕННЫЙ МИР
НАЧАЛА XXI ВЕКА
Наш современный мир многолик и
противоречив.
Политическая карта мира в XХ веке
коренным образом менялась несколько раз.
В мире на сегодняшний день
существует более 230 государств, множество
международных организаций,
интеграционных группировок.
В современном мире остаются
нерешенными многие проблемы, например,
такие как терроризм, отсталость
большинства стран мира. Как создать
систему коллективной безопасности? По
какому сценарию будет продолжаться
развитие мира?
