Gilbert (given Name)
Gilbert is a given name of Norman-French origin, itself from Germanic ''Gisilberht'' or ''Gisalberht''. Original spellings included ''Gislebert'', ''Guilbert'' and ''Gilebert''. The first element, ''Gil-'', comes from Germanic ''gīsil'', meaning "shaft of an arrow" or ''gisal'' "pledge, hostage", while the second element, ''-bert'' comes from Germanic ''-behrt'', short form of ''beraht'', meaning "bright" or "famous". The name spread in France and was introduced to England by the Normans, where it was popular during the Middle Ages. Variant spellings have evolved throughout Europe, including the Iberian/Italian version ''Gilberto'' and, as was the custom across Europe, given a Latin language version ''Gilbertus'', to be used alongside a person's native variant. The diminutives ''Gil'', ''Gillie'' and Bert eventually became popular as a standalone given name or nickname. ''Gilberte'' is the feminized version of the name. ''Gilbert'', with variant spellings, is also used as a surn ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Gilbert, Wisconsin
Bradley is a town in Lincoln County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was 2,408 at the 2010 census, down from 2,573 at the 2000 census. The unincorporated communities of Bradley, Gilbert, Heafford Junction, and West Kraft are located in the town. Geography Bradley occupies northern Lincoln County and is bordered to the north by Oneida County. It surrounds the city of Tomahawk, a separate municipality. The U.S. Route 51 freeway runs along the eastern side of the town, leading south to Merrill, the Lincoln county seat, and north to Hurley. According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of , of which are land and , or 13.3%, are water. The Wisconsin River flows through the town and the center of Tomahawk, where it is joined by the Tomahawk, Somo, and Spirit rivers. The river system is impounded by the Tomahawk Dam in Bradley just south of the Tomahawk city limits, forming Lake Mohawksin, and by a separate dam forming the Spirit River ...

Gilbert Hill
Gilbert Hill is a monolith column of black basalt rock at Andheri, in Mumbai, India. The rock has a sheer vertical face and was formed when molten lava was squeezed out of the Earth's clefts during the Mesozoic Era about 66 million years ago. During that era, molten lava had spread around most of the Indian states of Maharashtra, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh, covering an area of . The volcanic eruptions were also responsible for the destruction of plant and animal life during that era. According to experts, this rare geological phenomenon was the remnant of a ridge and had clusters of vertical columns in nearby Jogeshwari which were quarried off two decades ago. These vertical columns are similar to the Devils Tower National Monument in Wyoming, and the Devils Postpile National Monument in eastern California, USA. Gilbert Hill was declared a National Park in 1952 by the Central Government under the Forest Act. In 2007, after years of lobbying by geologists, the hill was decl ...

Gilbert Cell
In electronics, the Gilbert cell is a type of frequency mixer. It produces output signals proportional to the product of two input signals. Such circuits are widely used for frequency conversion in radio systems. The advantage of this circuit is the output Electric current, current is an accurate multiplication of the (differential) base currents of both inputs. As a mixer, its balanced operation cancels out many Parasitic oscillation, unwanted mixing products, resulting in a "cleaner" output. Gilbert cells can also be used as Variable-gain amplifier, variable-gain amplifiers (VGA). It is a generalized case of an early circuit first used by Howard Jones in 1963, invented independently and greatly augmented by Barrie Gilbert in 1967. It is a specific example of "translinear" design, a current-mode approach to analog circuit design. The specific property of this cell is that the differential output current is a precise Product (mathematics), algebraic product of its two differential ...

Gilbert School
The Gilbert School is a privately endowed secondary school that serves as the public high school for the towns of Winchester and Hartland, Connecticut and the public middle school for Winchester. The Gilbert School serves grades 7–12 and was founded in 1895. History The Gilbert School was founded in 1895 as the result of the bequest of William L. Gilbert who, in his will, made provision for the "establishment and maintenance of an institution of learning to be known as The Gilbert School." He directed that the school should give instruction "for the improvement of mankind by affording such assistance and means of educating the young as will help them to become good citizens." Gilbert named 16 trustees who were to establish the school. Seven trustees were chosen to govern the school, forming The Gilbert School Committee. This committee was to be responsible for the day-to-day operation of the new institution. Gilbert died in June 1890, leaving over half a million dollars fo ...

Gilbert Academy
Gilbert Academy was a premier College-preparatory school, preparatory school for African-American high school students in New Orleans, Louisiana. Begun in 1863 in New Orleans as a home for colored children orphaned by the American Civil War, the home moved to Baldwin, Louisiana, in 1867. The Orphans Home evolved into a school and, over the next 80 years, became Gilbert Academy, a college preparatory school for African Americans. Gilbert Academy returned to New Orleans, achieved accreditation by the Southern Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges, and graduated many notable students until it closed in 1949. History Civil War origins The Union Army captured New Orleans on April 25, 1862, one year into the American Civil War, and the United States Department of War set up the Department of the Gulf as part of the United States Army. Nathaniel Banks, Nathaniel P. Banks, the Gulf Department's second commander, appropriated the vacant mansion of Confederate States of America, Co ...
