Randomness is the lack of pattern or predictability in events. A random sequence of events, symbols or steps has no order and does not follow an intelligible pattern or combination. Individual random events are by definition unpredictable, but in many cases the frequency of different outcomes over a large number of events (or "trials") is predictable. For example, when throwing two dice, the outcome of any particular roll is unpredictable, but a sum of 7 will occur twice as often as 4. In this view, randomness is a measure of uncertainty of an outcome, rather than haphazardness, and applies to concepts of chance, probability, and information entropy.
The fields of mathematics, probability, and statistics use formal definitions of randomness. In statistics, a random variable is an assignment of a numerical value to each possible outcome of an event space. This association facilitates the identification and the calculation of probabilities of the events. Random variables can appear in random sequences. A random process is a sequence of random variables whose outcomes do not follow a deterministic pattern, but follow an evolution described by probability distributions. These and other constructs are extremely useful in probability theory and the various applications of randomness.
"Random" is the first CD single from UK hip hop artist Lady Sovereign, following the release of her 12" vinyl single "Ch Ching (Cheque 1 2)" in 2004. It was her second and last single for Casual Records in 2005.
The single was Lady Sovereign's first to make the UK top 75, peaking at #73 there and spending one week within the top 75. After the single release, she was signed by Def Jam Recordings and this single is considered to be her breakthrough into the mainstream market.
"Random" was featured on an episode of The O.C. aired on April 27, 2006, playing in the background during the senior prom in Season 3, Episode 23 - "The Party Favor" and was featured as a track on Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Remix. A remix of this song was played on the "Jamalot" episode of CSI: NY.
The first rapped line in the song references the hit song "Tipsy" by J-Kwon.

Random were a five-member Australian R&B vocal group formed in 2005 by Xylocaine "Xy" Latu, Donald Tauvao, his cousins Tasesa Junior "TJ" Tauvao and Wayne Tauvao; and Andy-Iese "Jesse" Tolo-Paepae. They won the first season of The X Factor (Australia). In October that year they issued their debut self-titled album, which peaked in the ARIA Albums Chart top 100. Their first single, "Put Your Hands Up", peaked at No. 7 on the related ARIA Singles Chart. A follow up single, "Are You Ready", reached No. 36. The group disbanded in 2007 but briefly reunited in October 2009 for a one-off performance.
Random formed at the Brisbane auditions for The X Factor (Australia) in December 2004. Initially Xylocaine "Xy" Latu and Andy-Iese "Jesse" Tolo-Paepae were to compete as a duo, Rough Diamonds; while Tasesa Junior "TJ" Tauvao wanted to enter as a solo artist: he was attending with his brother Wayne Tauvao and their cousin, Donald Tauvao – all three were former members of a vocal trio, 315. Prior to auditioning all five agreed to compete as a combined R&B vocal quintet and named themselves, Random. The group were mentored by Mark Holden and won the TV talent contest.
Relation or relations may refer to:
Published in 1976, The Story of the Weasel is author Carolyn Slaughter's debut novel. It won the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize the following year. Published as Relations in the United States, it has been praised for its 'sensitive treatment of fraternal incest in Victorian England and for its subtle poetic prose'. According to the author it 'did extremely well'.
The frame story is set in 1900 Cirencester as 30-year-old Catherine Roach is writing the story of her childhood in 1880s Wandsworth, when at the age of ten she and her brother Christopher, two years her senior, discover their late father's collection of pornography. Prompted by the discovery the siblings then start a sexual relationship which lasts for three years; coming to an end on a holiday in Cornwall after which Christopher leaves home; eventually emigrating to South Africa. Catherine writes the story in order to come to terms with the damage the relationship caused herself and her brother.
Relations is an album of cover versions by Kathryn Williams, released in 2004.

The Dialect of Black Americans (1970, Western Electric Records) Uploaded for historical reference. Synopsis from the book, "Ego Trip's Big Book of Racism (2004)" This ancient school "Community Relations Presentation" is required listening for anyone who thought the late-'90s controversy over ebonics as a language of its own was some recent phenomenon, or simply anyone who can’t get enough of that offensive stuff. The liner notes read, “ At a time when interracial communication and understanding are assuming enormous importance, this record hopes to he explain for listeners of all races what Black dialect is and how it functions." But however good its intentions, this stab at untying African-American tongues comes off pretty racist itself from the giddy-up, dramatizing examples of how B...
I take a look into the riots, protests and the media narratives associated with them that have occurred over the past few months, against Trump and the right, including the alt-right in particular, and the social psychological involved, particularly as it concerns anonymity, social identity/self-categorization, inter-group relations, cult-like behavior, and stigma.
