Kfar Blum
Kfar Blum ( he, כְּפַר בְּלוּם, ''lit.'' Blum Village) is a kibbutz in the Hula Valley part of the Upper Galilee in Israel. Located about southeast of the town of Kiryat Shmona, it falls under the jurisdiction of Upper Galilee Regional Council. In it had a population of . History Kibbutz Kfar Blum was founded in November 1943 by the Labor Zionist Habonim (now Habonim Dror) youth movement, adjacent to the Palestinian village of Al-Salihiyya. The founding members of the kibbutz were primarily from the United Kingdom, South Africa, the United States and the Baltic countries. The kibbutz was named in honor of Léon Blum, the Jewish socialist former prime minister of France who was the focus of a widely publicized, and ultimately unsuccessful, show trial in 1942 mounted by the collaborationist Vichy regime. Economy Agriculture (cotton, dairy, fruit) and light industry (metal working) have formed the primary economic basis for the kibbutz. In recent years this ...

Blum Basin Falls
Blum Basin Falls is a waterfall in Whatcom County, in the U.S. state of Washington. It is located in North Cascades National Park on the headwaters of Blum Creek, a tributary of the Baker River. Fed by two small retreating glaciers and several snowfields on the southern side of Mount Blum, the waterfall is formed by the largest meltwater stream that feeds the mainstem of Blum Creek. The falls tumble down a high glacial headwall several miles within the national park in two distinct stages; the first is a series of slides over rounded rock, above the tree line, and the second is a series of near-vertical plunges to the forested valley below. Although most of the falls is clearly visible, parts of it are obscured by tall pines that grow at its base. There is no trail leading to the waterfall. Etymology The falls takes its name from the creek, which in turn receives its name from Mount Blum, which was named for John Blum, a United States Forest Service fire patrol pilot killed i ...

Blum Axioms
In computational complexity theory the Blum axioms or Blum complexity axioms are axioms that specify desirable properties of complexity measures on the set of computable functions. The axioms were first defined by Manuel Blum in 1967. Importantly, Blum's speedup theorem and the Gap theorem hold for any complexity measure satisfying these axioms. The most well-known measures satisfying these axioms are those of time (i.e., running time) and space (i.e., memory usage). Definitions A Blum complexity measure is a pair (\varphi, \Phi) with \varphi a numbering of the partial computable functions \mathbf^ and a computable function :\Phi: \mathbb \to \mathbf^ which satisfies the following Blum axioms. We write \varphi_i for the ''i''-th partial computable function under the Gödel numbering \varphi, and \Phi_i for the partial computable function \Phi(i). * the domains of \varphi_i and \Phi_i are identical. * the set \ is recursive. Examples * (\varphi, \Phi) is a complexity measur ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Blum Integer
In mathematics, a natural number ''n'' is a Blum integer if is a semiprime for which ''p'' and ''q'' are distinct prime numbers congruent to 3 mod 4.Joe Hurd, Blum Integers (1997), retrieved 17 Jan, 2011 from http://www.gilith.com/research/talks/cambridge1997.pdf That is, ''p'' and ''q'' must be of the form , for some integer ''t''. Integers of this form are referred to as Blum primes. Goldwasser, S. and Bellare, M.br>"Lecture Notes on Cryptography". Summer course on cryptography, MIT, 1996-2001 This means that the factors of a Blum integer are Gaussian primes with no imaginary part. The first few Blum integers are : 21, 33, 57, 69, 77, 93, 129, 133, 141, 161, 177, 201, 209, 213, 217, 237, 249, 253, 301, 309, 321, 329, 341, 381, 393, 413, 417, 437, 453, 469, 473, 489, 497, ...

Blum's Speedup Theorem
In computational complexity theory, Blum's speedup theorem, first stated by Manuel Blum in 1967, is a fundamental theorem about the complexity of computable functions. Each computable function has an infinite number of different program representations in a given programming language. In the theory of algorithms one often strives to find a program with the smallest complexity for a given computable function and a given complexity measure (such a program could be called ''optimal''). Blum's speedup theorem shows that for any complexity measure, there exists a computable function, such that there is no optimal program computing it, because every program has a program of lower complexity. This also rules out the idea there is a way to assign to arbitrary functions ''their'' computational complexity, meaning the assignment to any ''f'' of the complexity of an optimal program for ''f''. This does of course not exclude the possibility of finding the complexity of an optimal program for c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Lost Honour Of Katharina Blum
''The Lost Honour of Katharina Blum, or: how violence develops and where it can lead'' (original German title: , ) is a 1974 novel by Heinrich Böll. The story deals with the sensationalism of tabloid news and the political climate of panic over Red Army Faction terrorism in the 1970s in the Federal Republic of Germany.

The book's fictional tabloid paper, ''Die Zeitung'' (''The Newspaper''), is modelled on the actual German ''Bild-Zeitung''. Plot Four days after a Weiberfastnacht's eve party (Wed. 20 February 1974), where Katharina Blum met a man named Ludwig Götten, she calls on Oberkommissar Moeding and confesses to killing a journalist for the newspaper ''Die Zeitung''.
