... The air just sit there and doesn't get stirred. ... Normally, the air is hottest near the ground and gets cooler as you go up. ... If it weren't for the temperature profile, convection wouldn't occur: Because the temperature decreases with altitude, cold air sits on top of hot air, allowing convection. ... The air above the ground is hot, the air above the water is cold. ... The land cools down faster than the sea, so the air above the ground is colder than the air above the water. ...

... As we have seen, evolutionary considerations based on our current understanding of massive binary systems lead to the conclusion that BH+PSR binaries must constitute a rather numerous subclass of all binary PSR ( 1 per 1000 isolated pulsars; Lipunov et al. , 1994b[ 124 ]). It seemed a priori that the binary radio pulsar PSR B0042-73   in the SMC (Kaspi et al., 1994[ 81 ]) could belong to one of these two classes. ... This means that such binary pulsars should be discovered in the near future. ...

It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

Starting with the Apache 1.2 betas, people are reporting many more connections in the FIN_WAIT_2 state (as reported by netstat ) than they saw using older versions. When the server closes a TCP connection, it sends a packet with the FIN bit sent to the client, which then responds with a packet with the ACK bit set. ... Some users have observed no FIN_WAIT_2 problems with Apache 1.1.x, but with 1.2b enough connections build up in the FIN_WAIT_2 state to crash their server. ...

... First of all, you can obtain a map of the final coordinates of your objects and guide stars by using the command: PLOT/OPTOPUS [table] [label] [EW_flag] , . where [table] is the table output by REFRACTION/OPTOPUS . ... In order to avoid object misidentifications at a later stage, and for a cross identification between object identifiers and hole numbers, it is recommended to bring a printout of the table output created by the command REFRACTION/OPTOPUS to the telescope. ...
