S.A.T (professional wrestling)

S.A.T (Special Assault Team) (特別アサルトチーム, Tokubetsu Asaruto Chīmu) was a professional wrestling stable in the Pro Wrestling Noah promotion.

History

The stable was created in 2012.Shortly after winning the Triple Crown, Akiyama adopted a new look as he shaved his head bald. On January 22, 2012 Akiyama and Saito defeated Bad Intentions (Giant Bernard and Karl Anderson) to win the GHC Tag Team Championship.He has successfully defended the Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship against Taiyō Kea (twice), Takao Omori and Keiji Mutoh.On July 22, 2012 Akiyama and Saito lost the GHC Tag Team Championship to Magnus and Samoa Joe.Akiyama lost the Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship to Masakatsu Funaki on August 26, 2012 in a match that lasted less than five minutes.On October 2012 Go Shiozaki, Kotaro Suzuki and Atsushi Aoki join to S.A.T.On October 26, 2012 Akitoshi Saito and Go Shiozaki defeated No Mercy (Kenta and Maybach Taniguchi) to won the GHC Tag Team Championship.On December 3, 2012, it was reported that Akiyama had threatened to not re-sign with Noah after his contract expires in January 2013, when the promotion decided to release Kenta Kobashi from his contract.On December 9, 2012 Akitoshi Saito and Go Shiozaki lost the GHC Tag Team Championship to Brave (Naomichi Marufuji and Takashi Sugiura).On December 19, Noah confirmed that Akiyama would be leaving the promotion following December 24.On December 24, Akiyama, working as "Mr. Christmas", defeated his trainee Atsushi Aoki in both men's final Noah match.On December 19, 2012, Noah announced that Suzuki and Aoki and Shiozaki would be leaving the promotion, after refusing to re-sign after Kenta Kobashi was fired.On December 24, 2012 Suzuki defeated Genba Hirayanagi in his final Noah match and Shiozaki defeated Taiji Ishimori in his final Noah match and The next day the team was disband and they leaved to All Japan Pro Wrestling.

S660A

In its United Kingdom Tax Bulletin 64 (April 2003), the Inland Revenue (now HM Revenue and Customs) announced new guidance on the "settlements legislation". This is a body of law which seeks to prevent someone (known as the "settlor") from avoiding tax by reclassifying income as belonging to someone else (known as the beneficiary). The income is then taxed at the beneficiary’s lower rate although the settlor continues to benefit from it. The legislation targets spouses and also parents seeking to divert income via their minor children.

The section of the legislation is 660A of the UK Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988. Using the revised (April 2003) interpretation of s.660A, UK HMRC have been targeting businesses set up by spouses where they are aware that income is split between the spouses, and only one of them directly generates that income. In theory s.660A can apply to partnerships as well as limited companies, this has yet to be tested in the UK courts. In 2007 the interpretation was finally rejected by the Law Lords, resulting in the government proposing new leglisation to tackle the perceived abuse.

S-45A

S-45A was an American satellite, which was lost in a launch failure in 1961. The satellite was intended to operate in a highly elliptical orbit, from which it was to have provided data on the shape of the ionosphere, and on the Earth's magnetic field. It was part of the Explorer programme, and would have been designated Explorer 12 had it reached orbit. It was the second of two identical satellites to be launched; the first, S-45, had also been lost in a launch failure, earlier in the year.

S-45A was launched aboard a Juno II rocket, serial number AM-19G. It was the final flight of the Juno II. The launch took place from Launch Complex 26B at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station at 19:48:05 UTC on 24 May 1961. The system which was intended to ignite the second stage malfunctioned, and as a result that stage failed to ignite. The rocket failed to achieve orbit.

1N400x general-purpose diodes

The 1N4001 series (or 1N4000 series) is a family of popular 1.0 A (ampere) general-purpose silicon rectifier diodes commonly used in AC adapters for common household appliances. Blocking voltage varies from 50 to 1000 volts. This diode is made in an axial-lead DO-41 plastic package.

The 1N5400 series is a similarly popular series for higher current applications, up to 3 A. These diodes are typically available in the larger DO-201AD axial package to dissipate heat better.

Overview

These are fairly low-speed rectifier diodes, being inefficient for square waves of more than 15 kHz. The series was second sourced by many manufacturers. The 1N4000 series were in the Motorola Silicon Rectifier Handbook in 1966, as replacements for 1N2609 through 1N2617. The 1N5400 series were announced in Electrical Design News in 1968, along with the now lesser known 1.5 A 1N5391 series.

These devices are widely used and recommended.

The table below shows the maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltages of each of the members of the 1N4000 and 1N5400 series.
