Newline

In computing, a newline, also known as a line ending, end of line (EOL), or line break, is a special character or sequence of characters signifying the end of a line of text and the start of a new line. The actual codes representing a newline vary across operating systems, which can be a problem when exchanging text files between systems with different newline representations.

The concepts of line feed (LF) and carriage return (CR) are closely associated, and can be either considered separately or lumped together. In the physical media of typewriters and printers, two axes of motion, "down" and "across", are needed to create a new line on the page. Although the design of a machine (typewriter or printer) must consider them separately, the abstract logic of software can lump them together as one event. This is why a newline in character encoding can be defined as LF and CR combined into one (CR+LF, CRLF, LF+CR, LFCR).

Two ways to view newlines, both of which are self-consistent, are that newlines separate lines or that they terminate lines. If a newline is considered a separator, there will be no newline after the last line of a file. Some programs have problems processing the last line of a file if it is not terminated by a newline. On the other hand, programs that expect newline to be used as a separator will interpret a final newline as starting a new (empty) line.

Dollond & Aitchison

Dollond & Aitchison was one of the oldest chains of retail opticians in the United Kingdom, having been established in 1750. The business was absorbed into Boots Opticians in 2009 and stores have gradually been rebranded under the Boots Opticians name, completed in 2015.

History

On 21 April 1750, Peter Dollond opened a small optical business in Vine Street, near Hatton Garden in London. He was joined by his father, John Dollond, in 1752. The Dollonds became notable for the quality of their optical products. In 1761 John Dollond, now a partner in the business, was appointed optician to King George III and the Duke of York and Albany. In 1781, Peter Dollond made bifocal spectacles.

At The Great Exhibition 1851 in London, the Dollonds were awarded a medal for the excellence of their optical instruments.

In 1889, James Aitchison established his first business in Fleet Street. In 1927 Dollond & Co merged with Aitchison & Co, to form Dollond & Aitchison (abbreviated D&A).

In 1969, the company moved to its current location in Aston, Birmingham.

KHTP

KHTP (103.7 FM), also known as "Hot 103.7", is a Rhythmic Hot AC-formatted FM radio station in the Seattle, Washington market. The station broadcasts at 103.7 MHz and is owned and operated by Entercom Communications. The station's transmitting antenna is on Tiger Mountain, and operates from its studios at the Metropolitan Park complex in Downtown Seattle.

Translators

KHTP is also carried on the following satellite and broadcast translator stations to improve reception of the station:

History

103.7 FM first began broadcasting in 1958 as KTWR at 103.9 FM. In 1964, they changed their call letters to KTAC-FM and aired a contemporary format. In 1977, they changed their call letters to KBRD ("K-Bird FM 104"), switching to a beautiful music format, and upgraded to a stronger signal at 103.7 FM in 1981. At 2 p.m. on April 10, 1991, it flipped to its long running adult album alternative format as "The New FM 104 The Mountain" and the KMTT call letters. The first song on "The Mountain" was Rock Me on the Water by Jackson Browne. The former KBRD callsign is now on 680 AM in Olympia. The station did have some ratings issues for the first couple of years due to its transmitter location; this was changed when the transmitter relocated to Tiger Mountain. The station, while it was never #1 in Arbitron ratings books, did very well with certain demographics. However, as time went on, the station suffered a decline in ratings, especially after the introduction of the Portable People Meter in the Seattle market in 2009. Towards the later years of its format, KMTT was usually in the 2-low 3 share range.

Adventure Time (season 6)

The sixth season of American animated television series Adventure Time, created by Pendleton Ward, began airing on Cartoon Network in the United States following the series' fifth season. The series is based on a short produced for Frederator's Nicktoons Network animation incubator series Random! Cartoons. The season debuted on April 21, 2014 and finished on June 5, 2015. The season follows the adventures of Finn, a human boy, and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake, a dog with magical powers which allow him to shapeshift at will. Finn and Jake live in the post-apocalyptic Land of Ooo. Along the way, they interact with the other main characters of the show: Princess Bubblegum, The Ice King, and Marceline the Vampire Queen.

The season was storyboarded and written by Andy Ristaino, Cole Sanchez, Tom Herpich, Steve Wolfhard, Seo Kim, Somvilay Xayaphone, Graham Falk, Derek Ballard, Jesse Moynihan, Masaaki Yuasa, Adam Muto, Kent Osborne, Emily Partridge, Bert Youn, Madeleine Flores, Jillian Tamaki, Sam Alden, Sloane Leong, Brandon Graham, and David Ferguson. The season also featured Yuasa and Ferguson as guest animators for the episodes "Food Chain" and "Water Park Prank", respectively. This season was the last to feature Sanchez and Ristaino as storyboard artists; the former took a job on Clarence, and the latter became an Adventure Time background designer.

The Mountain (1849)

The Mountain (French: La Montagne), with its members collectively called Democratic Socialists (French: Démocrate-socialistes), was a political group of the Second French Republic. It drew its name from The Mountain, a group active in the early period of the French Revolution. Standing on a republican platform, its main opposition was the conservative Party of Order (Parti de l'Ordre). The Mountain achieved 25% of the vote, compared to 53% for the Party of Order. It was led by Ledru-Rollin, one of the members of the Second Republic's early provisional government.

History

After 1849, the Barrot Party of Order-backed government sought to repress protests against alcohol excises and the '45 centime', as well as demand for cheap credit and other grievances. The démoc-socs clandestinely organized this dissent in the face of press censorship, restrictions on political meetings, and harassment. The Mountain's broader strategy was to prepare for the 1852 legislative and Presidential elections, by continuing to espouse its utopian Christian socialist message alongside attempts to politicize the three million voters who had been disenfranchised in 1850 despite the Republic's constitution proclaiming universal (manhood) suffrage. Marx again found cause for criticism, accusing The Mountain of impotently "prophesying future victories".
