Conversation
Conversation is interactive communication between two or more people. The development of conversational skills and etiquette is an important part of socialization. The development of conversational skills in a new language is a frequent focus of language teaching and learning. Conversation analysis is a branch of sociology which studies the structure and organization of human interaction, with a more specific focus on conversational interaction. Definition and characterization No generally accepted definition of conversation exists, beyond the fact that a conversation involves at least two people talking together. Consequently, the term is often defined by what it is not. A ritualized exchange such as a mutual greeting is not a conversation, and an interaction that includes a marked status differential (such as a boss giving orders) is also not a conversation. An interaction with a tightly focused topic or purpose is also generally not considered a conversation. Summarizing ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sumbar River
The Sumbar (also Sari-su, Sara-su and Ṣáríṣú) is a fast flowing river in southern Turkmenistan and northern Iran. It a tributary of the Atrek.

Chat (ppp)
WvDial (pronounced 'weave-dial') is a utility that helps in making modem-based connections to the Internet that is included in some Linux distributions. WvDial is a Point-to-Point Protocol dialer: it dials a modem and starts pppd in order to connect to the Internet. It uses the wvstreams library. WvDial uses heuristics to guess how to dial and log into a server, alleviating the need to write a login script.

Chat (mining)
Chat is fragments of siliceous rock, limestone, and Dolomite (rock), dolomite waste rejected in the lead-zinc milling operations that accompanied lead-zinc mining in the first half of the 20th century. Historic lead and zinc mining in the Midwestern United States was centered in two major areas: the tri-state area covering more than in southwestern Missouri, southeastern Kansas, and northeastern Oklahoma and the Old Lead Belt covering about in southeastern Missouri. The first recorded mining occurred in the Old Lead Belt in about 1742. The production increased significantly in both the tri-state area and the Old Lead Belt during the mid-19th century and lasted up to 1970. Cleanup Currently production still occurs in a third area, the Viburnum, Missouri, Viburnum Trend, in southeastern Missouri. Mining and milling of ore produced more than 500 million tons of wastes in the tri-state area and about 250 million tons of wastes in the Old Lead Belt. More than 75 percent of this wast ...

Yellow-breasted Chat
The yellow-breasted chat (''Icteria virens'') is a large songbird found in North America, and is the only member of the family Icteriidae. It was once a member of the New World warbler family, but in 2017, the American Ornithological Society moved it to its own family. Its placement is not definitively resolved. Taxonomy The yellow-breasted chat was formerly considered the largest member of the family New World warbler, Parulidae, but following taxonomic studies, it was moved to the Monotypic taxon, monotypic family Icteriidae. Although Icteriidae is a distinct family from the Icterid, New World blackbirds (Icterid, Icteridae), which have a very similar name, taxonomic studies support them as being the closest living relatives of one another, and in a 2019 study Carl Oliveros and colleagues actually classified the yellow-breasted chat as a member of Icteridae. In addition, the former grouping of the yellow-breasted chat as a warbler was not too far off, as Parulidae is now consi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Granatellus
''Granatellus'' is a genus of bird previously placed in the family Parulidae, although biochemical evidence suggests it belongs in Cardinalidae Cardinalidae (often referred to as the "cardinal-grosbeaks" or simply the "cardinals") is a family of New World-endemic passerine birds that consists of cardinals, grosbeaks, and buntings.

Epthianura
''Epthianura'' is a genus of bird also known as the Australian chats. Along with the gibberbird in the genus ''Ashbyia'' they were once thought to constitute a separate family, the Epthianuridae, although most taxonomists today treat them as a subfamily, Epthianurinae, of the honeyeater family Meliphagidae. Distribution, habitat and movements The genus ''Epthianura'' is endemic to the continent of Australia, where they are widely distributed across the mainland and, in the case of the white-fronted chat, Tasmania.Del Hoyo, J.; Elliot, A. & Christie D. (editors). (2007). ''Handbook of the Birds of the World''. Volume 12: Picathartes to Tits and Chickadees. Lynx Edicions. With the exception of that species they are generally distributed in the central part of Australia; the white-fronted chat being the most coastal species. The Australian chats have adapted to a wide range of habitat types in the interior of Australia, though they generally are found in more shrubby environments t ...

Ashbyia
The gibberbird (''Ashbyia lovensis'') is a species of chat within the passerine birds. Taxonomy This species, also formerly known as the desert chat, is Endemism, endemic to Australia and the only species within the genus ''Ashbyia''.Pizzey, Graham; Doyle, Roy (1980) ''A Field Guide to the Birds of Australia''. Collins Publishers, Sydney. This genus was named after the South Australian ornithologist Edwin Ashby.[3] The specific epithet ''lovensis'' honours the Irish missionary James Robert Beattie Love, Reverend James Love (1889–1947). The gibberbird, along with the four chats of the genus ''Epithianura'', have sometimes been placed in a separate family, ''Honeyeater, Epthianuridae'' (the Australian chats), but are now thought to be aberrant honeyeaters in the family ''Honeyeater, Meliphagidae''. The common name of gibberbird was given as a reflection of the gibber plains that make up the primary habitat for the species and unlike other chat species, the gibberbird is almost c ...

Chat (bird)
Chats (formerly sometimes known as "chat-thrushes") are a group of small Old World insectivorous birds formerly classified as members of the thrush family (Turdidae), but following genetic DNA analysis, are now considered to belong to the Old World flycatcher family (Muscicapidae). The name is normally applied to the more robust ground-feeding flycatchers found in Europe and Asia and most northern species are strong migrants. There are many genera and these birds in particular make up most of the subfamily Saxicolinae. Other songbirds called "chats" are: * Australian chats, genera ''Ashbyia'' and '' Epthianura'' of the honeyeater family (Meliphagidae). They belong to a more ancient lineage than Saxicolinae. * American chats, genus ''Granatellus'' of the cardinal family (Cardinalidae), formerly placed in the wood-warbler family. They belong to a more modern lineage than Saxicolinae. * Yellow-breasted chat (''Icteria virens''), an enigmatic North American songbird tentatively p ...

(Z)-3-hexen-1-ol Acetyltransferase
(Z)-3-hexen-1-ol acetyltransferase (, ''CHAT'', ''At3g03480'') is an enzyme with systematic name ''acetyl-CoA:(3Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol acetyltransferase''. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction : acetyl-CoA Acetyl-CoA (acetyl coenzyme A) is a molecule that participates in many biochemical reactions in protein, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.

Choline Acetyltransferase
Choline acetyltransferase (commonly abbreviated as ChAT, but sometimes CAT) is a transferase enzyme responsible for the synthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. ChAT catalyzes the transfer of an acetyl group from the coenzyme acetyl-CoA to choline, yielding acetylcholine (ACh). ChAT is found in high concentration in cholinergic neurons, both in the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). As with most nerve terminal proteins, ChAT is produced in the body of the neuron and is transported to the nerve terminal, where its concentration is highest. Presence of ChAT in a nerve cell classifies this cell as a "cholinergic" neuron. In humans, the choline acetyltransferase enzyme is encoded by the ''CHAT'' gene. History Choline acetyltransferase was first described by David Nachmansohn and A. L. Machado in 1943. A German biochemist, Nachmansohn had been studying the process of nerve impulse conduction and utilization of energy-yielding chemical reacti ...
