Dr John Chambers has made detailed computer simulations of the origin and formation of the Earth and the inner planets. These build upon earlier work by Chambers and George Wetherill, of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, whose computer calculations had predicted that planets would tend to have elliptical orbits rather than the almost-circular ones we see in the Solar System. ...

This page could be summarized with the statement: don't require Apache to use DNS for any parsing of the configuration files . ... In order for Apache to function properly it absolutely needs to have two pieces of information about each virtual host: the ServerName and at least one IP address that the server responds to. ... use IP addresses in Listen . ... In any event it doesn't seem possible to reliably boot a virtual-hosted web server when DNS has failed unless IP addresses are used. ...

This example shows a difference between CSS's table model for HTML and for other document formats. The first, HTML, example is defined by HTML to be illegal, as it would lead to overlapping cells if HTML's rules for layout are followed. ... The diagram depicts how the two examples, the HTML one and the almost identical non-HTML one, might be rendered. ... The rendering of the non-HTML example is on the right, it follows the CSS rules and thus has no overlapping cells. ...

... There has been a heated public discussion in the past few years about whether our ninth planet is really deserving of the name. Since Pluto orbits a star, and is much less luminous, it certainly satisfies the definition we have above. The problem is actually not with Pluto, but with a very large number of other bodies in our Solar System which also satisfy this definition, but which are not called planets. Perhaps the most notable of these is Ceres, the largest asteroid. ... Planet . ...

Russian SHAREABLE DATA CENTER Institute of Solar-Terrestial Physics SB RAS . ... A most promising problem is to investigate the interaction of two VHF powerful radiowave beams in the ionosphere, whose difference frequency is equal to the plasma frequency in some ionospheric area (that is, the difference frequency is taken in the range 1-8 MHz). ... Two-frequency interaction effects are based on radiowave non-linear mixing, which is rather complicated when describing and modelling the experiment. ...
