Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman
''Fetch! with Ruff Ruffman'' (sometimes shortened as ''Fetch!'') is an American live-action/animated television series that aired on PBS Kids Go! and is largely targeted towards middle school children. It is a reality-game show that is hosted by an animated anthropomorphic dog named Ruff Ruffman who dispenses challenges to the show's real-life contestants. The series ran for five seasons and 100 episodes from May 29, 2006, to November 4, 2010, on PBS, with 30 contestants in that time. Although a sixth season was planned, with auditions taking place in January 2010, WGBH announced on June 14, 2010, that due to lack of funding, the series would end. In June 2008, the series received its first Emmy for Best Original Song for its theme. Synopsis Fetch! is a reality-based game show where young contestants (ages 10–14) take on various challenges to gain points. During these challenges, the contestants must complete a variety of tasks assigned to them ahead of time (and on the fly) ...

The Fetch (Linda Hoyle Album)
''The Fetch'' is the second album by Linda Hoyle, released by Angel Air on 7 August 2015. The album was produced by her long time friend and former bandmate Mo Foster. On 29 June 2015 Hoyle released a promotional video for the album's first track, "The Fetch". Background Although Hoyle and Foster had remained good friends since working together in the early 1970s, it was not until 40 years later that they decided to write and record together again. The impetus for this was a performance (released as ''The Baskervilles Reunion 2011'') at Sussex University's 50th anniversary celebration. With Hoyle living in Canada and Foster in the UK it was difficult to negotiate a working process, so it is not surprising that ''The Fetch'' took nearly three years to make. Logic Pro and Pro Tools were vital ingredients in the success of the project, though few of the musicians found working under these circumstances an optimal procedure. Although most recording is now undertaken in this way, ...

Fetch (album)
''Fetch'' is the eighth album by the Japanese noise rock band Melt-Banana. It was released on October 1, 2013, on CD, LP and digitally. Background and recording ''Fetch'' was Melt-Banana's first studio album in six years, after ''Bambi's Dilemma'' in 2007. During that time, the band toured extensively, including a U.S. tour with Tool, and playing at the Sydney Opera House with Lou Reed's Metal Machine Trio. Band members Yasuko Onuki and Ichirou Agata also performed shows as "Melt-Banana Lite", an alternate configuration of the band that uses synthesizers instead of guitars and drums, and released a live album, '' Melt-Banana Lite Live Ver 0.0'', in 2009. By mid-2012, Melt-Banana was performing exclusively as a duo of Onuki and Agata, using synthesizers in place of live bass and drums. Writing for ''Fetch'' began in late 2010, and the demos were "almost done" by March 2011. However, production was postponed after the Tohoku earthquake and the aftermath of the subsequent meltdown a ...

Fetch (FTP Client)
Fetch is a full-featured GUI-based FTP client for the classic Mac OS and macOS made by Fetch Softworks. In addition to basic FTP functionality, Fetch includes such features as editing files without having to download them and re-upload them. In version 5.0, support for SFTP was added, and in version 5.2, FTPS was added. History Fetch was created in the summer of 1989 by Jim Matthews, an employee of Dartmouth College. At the time, it was intended primarily for internal college use. Fetch was maintained and updated as a Dartmouth software project and was eventually released as shareware, becoming very popular in the Macintosh community. Due to its status as an official product of an educational institution, Fetch was always free for educational users. The first version of Fetch was a desk accessory. For most of the 1990s it competed with Anarchie as one of the two main Mac FTP clients. After being a contestant on the game show ''Who Wants to Be a Millionaire'' in December 2000, ...

Fetch (folklore)
A fetch, based in Irish folklore, is a supernatural double or an apparition of a living person. The sighting of a fetch is regarded as an omen, usually for impending death. Description The fetch is described as an exact, spectral double of a living human, whose appearance is regarded as ominous. A sighting of a fetch is generally taken as a portent of its exemplar's looming death, though John and Michael Banim report that if the double appears in the morning rather than the evening, it is instead a sign of a long life in store. As such, it is similar to the Germanic doppelgänger and to some conceptions of the British wraith. Francis Grose associated the term with Northern England in his 1787 ''Provincial Glossary'', but otherwise it seems to have been in popular use only in Ireland. Origins and etymology The etymology of ''fetch'' is obscure and the origin of the term is unknown. It may derive from the verb "fetch"; the compound "fetch-life", evidently referring to a psychopo ...

Fetch (game)
Fetch is a pet game where an object, such as a stick or ball, is thrown a moderate distance away from the animal, and it is the animal's objective to grab and retrieve ("fetch") it. Many times, the owner of the animal will say "Fetch" to the animal before or after throwing the object. The game is usually played with a dog, but in rare instances cats, especially younger cats, have been known to engage in fetch behavior. Mathematics of Fetch Arizona State psychology professor Michael McBeath has proposed a simple model to explain how dogs play Fetch. By mounting a camera on the head of a dog, he found that the dog changed its speed and direction in order to keep the frisbee's image in a constant position on its retina. This approach, called the Linear Optical Trajectory, makes the frisbee appear to move in a linear path at a constant speed. McBeath had previously noticed this interception strategy in professional baseball players pursuing fly balls. Tim Pennings, a mathematics pr ...

Wind Fetch
In oceanography wind fetch, also known as fetch length or simply fetch, is the length of water over which a given wind Wind is the natural movement of air or other gases relative to a planet's surface. Winds occur on a range of scales, from thunderstorm flows lasting tens of minutes, to local breezes generated by heating of land surfaces and lasting a few hou ... has blown without obstruction. Fetch is used in geography and meteorology and its effects are usually associated with sea state and when it reaches shore it is the main factor that creates storm surge which leads to coastal erosion and flooding. It also plays a large part in longshore drift. Fetch length, along with the wind speed (wind strength), and duration, determines the size (sea state) of ocean surface wave, waves produced. If the wind direction is constant, the longer the fetch and the greater the wind speed, the more wind energy is transferred to the water surface and the larger the resulting sea state wil ...

Fetch-execute Cycle
The instruction cycle (also known as the fetch–decode–execute cycle, or simply the fetch-execute cycle) is the cycle that the central processing unit (CPU) follows from booting, boot-up until the computer has shut down in order to process instructions. It is composed of three main stages: the fetch stage, the decode stage, and the execute stage. In simpler CPUs, the instruction cycle is executed sequentially, each instruction being processed before the next one is started. In most modern CPUs, the instruction cycles are instead executed concurrent computing, concurrently, and often in parallel computing, parallel, through an instruction pipeline: the next instruction starts being processed before the previous instruction has finished, which is possible because the cycle is broken up into separate steps. Role of components The Program counter, program counter (PC) is a special Processor register, register that holds the memory address of the next instruction to be executed. D ...

XMLHttpRequest
XMLHttpRequest (XHR) is an API in the form of an object whose methods transfer data between a web browser and a web server. The object is provided by the browser's JavaScript environment. Particularly, retrieval of data from XHR for the purpose of continually modifying a loaded web page is the underlying concept of Ajax design. Despite the name, XHR can be used with protocols other than HTTP and data can be in the form of not only XML, but also JSON, HTML or plain text. WHATWG maintains an XHR standard as a living document. Ongoing work at the W3C to create a stable specification is based on snapshots of the WHATWG standard. History The concept behind the ''XMLHttpRequest'' object was originally created by the developers of Outlook Web Access (by Microsoft) for Microsoft Exchange Server 2000. An interface called ''IXMLHTTPRequest'' was developed and implemented into the second version of the MSXML library using this concept. The second version of the MSXML library was shipped ...
