  • Multi-Facetted Sundials
    The Scientific Tourist: Aberdeen Multi-facetted sundials Scotland is rich in multi-facetted sundials, singularly rich in fact. One is hard pressed to find two the same. As well as being individual in appearance, each one combines an appreciation of science, mathematics, high skill in stonemasonry, art and spectacle in a single object. Besides all of that, most of them are remarkably old, dating from between 1625 and 1725 in round numbers. They are mainly found in the gardens of venerable country houses, sometimes castles, or if they have been moved then they come from old country estates. These dials have usually outlasted the original houses of the aristocracy who commissioned them. A good many are described and some illustrated in Mrs Gatty’s famous book of sundials1 and more recently in Andrew Somerville’s account of The Ancient Sundials of Scotland2. The very top of the great sundial at Glamis Castle, from an illustration by Mrs Their widespread occurrence over Scotland attests to the fact that Gatty they were fashionable for about a century but, curiously enough, we don’t know why that was so. Were they just ‘fun’ to have in the garden, effectively a pillar with multiple clock faces on it, sometimes more than 50? Each dial is quite small so they aren’t precision instruments but people didn’t worry overmuch about the exact time of day in 1700. Were they a symbolic representation of ‘Science’ in the garden, a centre-piece and statement in a formal garden, just as later in the 18th century one may have found an orrery in the library

These results encourage the routine use of the Comprehensive Complication Index to grade postoperative complications in colonic surgery. Abstract: (1) Introduction: To date, the sensitivity of the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) in a homogeneous cohort of colonic resections for oncologic purposes has not been reported. The present study aims to compare the CCI with the conventional Clavien–Dindo classification (CDC) in colon cancer patients. (2) Methods: The clinical data of patients submitted to an elective colectomy for adenocarcinoma were retrieved from a prospectively maintained database. Postoperative compli- cations and length of stay were reviewed, and CDC and CCI scores were calculated for each patient.

Any competition from Zenith was further mitigated by the fact that Zenith was a relatively small-scale producer of chronographs at this time, and did not pose a competitive threat in many of the most important markets for example, Zenith was unable to sell watches in the United States because the Zenith Electronics company had prior use of the name. She was excited to find out about the High Line , an elevated railroad trestle that has been turned into a green pedestrian walkway. Heuer and Breitling were direct competitors in the market for sports chronographs, but created a partnership to develop the Chronomatic automatic chronographs.

  • Date and Time Terms and Definitions
    Date and Time Terms and Definitions Date and Time Terms and Definitions Brooks Harris Version 35 2016-05-17 Introduction Many documents describing terms and definitions, sometimes referred to as “vocabulary” or “dictionary”, address the topics of timekeeping. This document collects terms from many sources to help unify terminology and to provide a single reference document that can be cited by documents related to date and time. The basic timekeeping definitions are drawn from ISO 8601, its underlying IEC specifications, the BIPM Brochure (The International System of Units (SI)) and BIPM International vocabulary of metrology (VIM). Especially important are the rules and formulas regarding TAI, UTC, and “civil”, or “local”, time. The international standards that describe these fundamental time scales, the rules and procedures of their maintenance, and methods of application are scattered amongst many documents from several standards bodies using various lexicon. This dispersion makes it difficult to arrive at a clear understanding of the underlying principles and application to interoperable implementations. This document collects and consolidates definitions and descriptions from BIPM, IERS, and ITU-R to clarify implementation. There remain unresolved issues in the art and science of timekeeping, especially regarding “time zones” and the politically driven topic of “local time”. This document does not attempt to resolve those dilemmas but describes the terminology and the current state of the art (at the time of publication) to help guide
