... Epistemology is a part of the study of Philosophy dealing with how we use our senses to know something about the world. ... Yet we know that we can be deceived by our senses. ... If we cannot always trust our senses, how can we ever know anything for certain about the world? ... A branch of epistemology that has come into vogue in the last 10-15 years is the problem of consciousness. ... What relationship is there between our conscious experience and the true nature of the physical world? ...

... Dr. Rodrigues, M1 group, Spain, has pointed out the confusion in identification of SN 1998ar in NGC 2916. ... I have measured the locations of point-like sources around NGC 2916 with DSS-1 image and 5 GSC stars. ... The magnitude of this star is estimated as 15.5 mag or so on DSS1 image. ... Star C seems to be dimmer than Star B, and comparing GSC 14.8 mag star and fainter neighbouring stars, its magnitude is about 1.5 mag dimmer than GSC 14.8 mag star; which tells that SN was about 16.3 mag. ...

... 3 ­ Sternberg State Astronomical Institute, Moscow, :jeanna@sai.msu.ru The graphic method of the analysis of an arrangement of linear structural elements on geographical and geological maps of continents (A.V.Dolitsky, [1]) has allowed to find out global stress fields of the past and among them one which directions (the main normal and maximal tangents) describe more than 80 % of all linear elements of a relief. ...

... Cost­E#ective System Management Skip Schaller Steward Observatory, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721 Abstract. Quality system management of computer workstations for as­ tronomy can be achieved with relatively small manpower requirements, if the right cost­e#ective administrative design decisions are made. ... The system is designed so that one doesn't depend on four or more hosts, (such as a software server, cpu server, data file server, font server, etc.) to get work done. ...

... Coordinate system . It is necessary to specify the coordinate system for the drilling of plug-plates so that the drilling file (currently named plPlugMap), plate drilling, cartridge, rotator wrap and the rotator itself are compatible. ... The TCC rotator angle (object system) is defined to be 0 degrees for this orientation. ... Thus, the rotator angle gives the conventional astronomical position angle on the sky of the y axis (although Russell won't acknowledge this necessarily). ...
