Lipid Peroxidation
Lipid peroxidation is the chain of reactions of oxidative degradation of lipids. It is the process in which radical (chemistry), free radicals "steal" electrons from the lipids in cell membranes, resulting in cell damage. This process proceeds by a free radical chain reaction#Chemical chain reactions, chain reaction mechanism. It most often affects polyunsaturated fatty acids, because they contain multiple double bonds in between which lie methylene bridges (-CH2-) that possess especially reactive hydrogen atoms. As with any radical reaction, the reaction consists of three major steps: initiation, propagation, and termination. The chemical products of this oxidation are known as lipid peroxides or lipid oxidation products (LOPs). Initiation Initiation is the step in which a fatty acid radical (chemistry), radical is produced. The most notable initiators in living cells are reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydroxyl radical, OH· and hydroperoxyl, HOO·, which combines wi ...

LPO-50
The LPO-50 (Lyogkiy Pyekhotnyy Ognyemyot (Легкий Пехотный Огнемет), "Light Infantry Flamethrower") is a Soviet flamethrower. Developed in 1953 to replace the ROKS-2/3 flamethrowers used during World War Two, it was kept in the inventory well into the 1980s. This model was designed as a lightweight, manpack flamethrower with three upright cylinders and a bipod-mounted flame gun. It differed from Western flamethrowers in that it used special ignition cartridges to expel the thickened fuel mixture rather than an inert gas. During the 1960s, the weapon was manufactured by the People's Republic of China. It was replaced in Soviet service by the RPO "Rys" and RPO-A Shmel incendiary rocket launchers in the 1980s. The LPO saw service in the Vietnam War. Viet Cong forces were reported to have used the flamethrower at the 1967 Đắk Sơn massacre. At least one was used in an attack on the USMC base at Con Thien (also in 1967), and there were several captured ones on ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Law Practice Optimization
Law Practice Optimization, or Legal Practice Optimization, or simply LPO as it is also known, represents the practice carried out by Law Practice Optimizers of improving the efficiency and client/attorney relationships within a law firm and improves the client intake of the firm. LPO typically consists of three distinct stages, which are performed throughout an LPO campaign. # Basic business analysis. # The implementation of and training of LPO compliant software # LPO marketing. Prior to the advent of LPO, these three stages would have required the employment of three specialized entities, resulting in both a lengthy and expensive process. A law firm would start by hiring a business analyst, who may or may not have been familiar with the legal industry. Secondly, a law firm would need to investigate numerous software packages that are specialized for the legal industry. A package would have been chosen after much research, which may or may not have been conducted thoroughly. I ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Landing Page Optimization
In online marketing, a landing page, sometimes known as a "lead capture page", "single property page", "static page", "squeeze page" or a "destination page", is a single web page that appears in response to clicking on a search engine optimized search result, marketing promotion, marketing email or an online advertisement. The landing page will usually display directed sales copy that is a logical extension of the advertisement, search result or link. Landing pages are used for lead generation. The actions that a visitor takes on a landing page is what determines an advertiser's conversion rate. A landing page may be part of a microsite or a single page within an organization's main web site. Landing pages are often linked to social media, e-mail campaigns, search engine marketing campaigns, high quality articles or "affiliate account" in order to enhance the effectiveness of the advertisements. The general goal of a landing page is to convert site visitors into sales or leads. I ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Legal Process Outsourcing
Legal outsourcing, also known as legal process outsourcing (LPO), refers to the practice of a law firm or corporation obtaining legal support services from an outside law firm or legal support services company (LPO provider). When the LPO provider is based in another country, the practice is called offshoring and involves the practice of outsourcing any activity except those where personal presence or contact is required, e.g. appearances in court and face-to-face negotiations. When the LPO provider is based in the same country, the practice of outsourcing includes agency work and other services requiring a physical presence, such as court appearances. This process is one of the incidents of the larger movement towards outsourcing. The most commonly offered services have been agency work, document review, legal research and writing, drafting of pleadings and briefs, and patent services. Outsourcing gives a perfect job environment for the people in other nations and significantly th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lexicographic Path Ordering
In theoretical computer science, in particular in term rewriting, a path ordering is a well-founded strict total order (>) on the set of all terms such that :''f''(...) > ''g''(''s''1,...,''s''''n'') if ''f'' .> ''g'' and ''f''(...) > ''s''''i'' for ''i''=1,...,''n'', where (.>) is a user-given total precedence order on the set of all function symbols. Intuitively, a term ''f''(...) is bigger than any term ''g''(...) built from terms ''s''''i'' smaller than ''f''(...) using a lower-precedence root symbol ''g''. In particular, by structural induction, a term ''f''(...) is bigger than any term containing only symbols smaller than ''f''. A path ordering is often used as reduction ordering in term rewriting, in particular in the Knuth–Bendix completion algorithm. As an example, a term rewriting system for " multiplying out" mathematical expressions could contain a rule ''x''*(''y''+''z'') → (''x''*''y'') + (''x''*''z''). In order to ...

Libertarian Party Of Ohio
The Libertarian Party of Ohio (LPO) is the Ohio affiliate of the Libertarian Party. It is the fourth largest state affiliate of the Libertarian Party nationally and the third largest political party in Ohio. History The Libertarian Party of Ohio (LPO) was the product of a women's project for limited government, organized in 1972 by Kay Harroff and fellow Randians of a chapter of Objectivists meeting regularly in Cleveland. In 1977, LPO member Elaine Lindsey won office as an independent to Circleville City Council. In 1982 LPO state chair Ann Leech achieved first ever ballot access with party brand. In its founding years, Ohio was a hotbed of Libertarian women activism. Over the years, a number of local candidates have been elected, while the Libertarian Party has been active in key issues, such as eminent domain. In 2013, Todd Grayson was retained as City Council member for the northwest Ohio city of Perrysburg. He was at the time and continues through 2016, the Vice Chairma ...

Libration Point Orbit
In orbital mechanics, a libration point orbit (LPO) is a quasiperiodic orbit around a Lagrange point. Libration is a form of orbital motion exhibited, for example, in the Earth–Moon system. Trojan bodies also exhibit libration dynamics. Two varieties of libration point orbits amenable to Lyapunov stability are halo orbits and Lissajous orbits The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is in a libration point orbit around the L2 Langrange point of the Sun, and Earth-Moon barycenters. Because libration point orbits are quasiperiodic, the telescope must make frequent small burns to maintain proximity to the L2 point, as part of orbital station keeping In astrodynamics, orbital station-keeping is keeping a spacecraft at a fixed distance from another spacecraft or celestial body. It requires a series of orbital maneuvers made with thruster burns to keep the active craft in the same orbit as its ..., limiting the lifespan of the telescope due to depletion of fuel reserves.

Post Office
A post office is a public facility and a retailer that provides mail services, such as accepting letters and parcels, providing post office boxes, and selling postage stamps, packaging, and stationery. Post offices may offer additional services, which vary by country. These include providing and accepting government forms (such as passport applications), and processing government services and fees (such as road tax, postal savings, or bank fees). The chief administrator of a post office is called a postmaster. Before the advent of postal codes and the post office, postal systems would route items to a specific post office for receipt or delivery. During the 19th century in the United States, this often led to smaller communities being renamed after their post offices, particularly after the Post Office Department began to require that post office names not be duplicated within a state. Name The term "post-office" has been in use since the 1650s, shortly after the legali ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Limited Principle Of Omniscience
In constructive mathematics, the limited principle of omniscience (LPO) and the lesser limited principle of omniscience (LLPO) are axioms that are nonconstructive but are weaker than the full law of the excluded middle . The LPO and LLPO axioms are used to gauge the amount of nonconstructivity required for an argument, as in constructive reverse mathematics. They are also related to weak counterexamples in the sense of Brouwer. Definitions The limited principle of omniscience states : :LPO: For any sequence a_0, a_1, ... such that each a_i is either 0 or 1, the following holds: either a_i=0 for all i, or there is a k with a_k=1. The lesser limited principle of omniscience states: :LLPO: For any sequence a_0, a_1, ... such that each a_i is either 0 or 1, and such that at most one a_i is nonzero, the following holds: either a_=0 for all i, or a_=0 for all i, where a_ and a_ are entries with even and odd index respectively. It can be proved constructively that the law of the exc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
London Philharmonic Orchestra
The London Philharmonic Orchestra (LPO) is one of five permanent symphony orchestras based in London. It was founded by the conductors Sir Thomas Beecham and Malcolm Sargent in 1932 as a rival to the existing London Symphony and BBC Symphony Orchestras. The founders' ambition was to build an orchestra the equal of any European or American rival. Between 1932 and the Second World War the LPO was widely judged to have succeeded in this regard. After the outbreak of war, the orchestra's private backers withdrew and the players reconstituted the LPO as a self-governing cooperative. In the post-war years, the orchestra faced challenges from two new rivals; the Philharmonia and the Royal Philharmonic, founded respectively in 1946 and 1947, achieved a quality of playing not matched by the older orchestras, including the LPO. By the 1960s the LPO had regained its earlier standards, and in 1964 it secured a valuable engagement to play in the Glyndebourne Festival during the summer mo ...
