La Roche College
La Roche University is a private university in McCandless, Pennsylvania. It was founded in 1963 by the Sisters of Divine Providence as a Roman Catholic college and now sits on an campus in McCandless within the Diocese of Pittsburgh. History La Roche University was founded in 1963 by the Sisters of Divine Providence as a private college for religious sisters. It was named in honor of Stephanie Amelia la Roche von Starkenfels, the first Mother Superior of the Sisters of Divine Providence. The first president of the university was Sister Annunciata Sohl, C.D.P., who served until 1968. The college had begun to admit its first lay students by 1965. It continued to grow, and two years later, La Roche expanded beyond its leased space to construct the first building, the John J. Wright Library. La Roche encountered financial difficulties soon after its founding. Although closing the college was considered, Sister de la Salle Mahler, C.D.P., president from 1969 to 1975, carried on. Th ...

Logistics Readiness Center
Duncan J. McNabb (born August 8, 1952) is a retired United States Air Force general who last served as the ninth commander, United States Transportation Command from September 5, 2008, to October 17, 2011. He previously served as the 33rd Vice Chief of Staff of the Air Force. After retiring from the Air Force, McNabb and William Fraser III attempted to cash in on consulting contracts with Azerbaijani cargo carrier Silk Way Airlines in 2014, with both standing to make $5,000 a day. However, their business ventures in Azerbaijan were flagged and ultimately blocked by the United States Department of Defense and State Department, considering their requests to be a threat to national security and a potential embarrassment if the information was ever made public. Documents of the dispute were eventually reported by The Washington Post in 2022. Military career McNabb graduated from the United States Air Force Academy in 1974. A command pilot, he has amassed more than 5,400 flying hours ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

LRC (file Format)
LRC (short for LyRiCs) is a computer file format that synchronizes song lyrics with an audio file, such as MP3, Vorbis or MIDI. When an audio file is played with certain music players on a computer or on modern digital audio players, the song lyrics are displayed. The lyrics file generally has the same name as the audio file, with a different filename extension. For example, ''song.mp3'' and ''song.lrc''. The LRC format is text-based and similar to subtitle files. Formats Simple format Simple LRC format was introduced by Taiwan-based Kuo (Djohan) Shiang-shiang's ''Lyrics Displayer''. It was one of the first programs, if not the first, that attempted to simulate Karaoke performance. It usually displays a whole line of lyrics, but it is possible to display a word at a time, such as one would see in modern Karaoke machines, by creating a time tag for each word rather than each line. ''Kuo's Lyrics Displayer'' was created in 1998 and was accompanied with a plug-in for Winamp. Th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
LRC Circuit
An RLC circuit is an electrical circuit consisting of a resistor (R), an inductor (L), and a capacitor (C), connected in series or in parallel. The name of the circuit is derived from the letters that are used to denote the constituent components of this circuit, where the sequence of the components may vary from RLC. The circuit forms a harmonic oscillator for current, and resonates in a manner similar to an LC circuit. Introducing the resistor increases the decay of these oscillations, which is also known as damping. The resistor also reduces the peak resonant frequency. Some resistance is unavoidable even if a resistor is not specifically included as a component. RLC circuits have many applications as oscillator circuits. Radio receivers and television sets use them for tuning to select a narrow frequency range from ambient radio waves. In this role, the circuit is often referred to as a tuned circuit. An RLC circuit can be used as a band-pass filter, band-stop filter, low-p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Longitudinal Redundancy Check
In telecommunication, a longitudinal redundancy check (LRC), or horizontal redundancy check, is a form of redundancy check that is applied independently to each of a parallel group of bit streams. The data must be divided into transmission blocks, to which the additional check data is added. The term usually applies to a single parity bit per bit stream, calculated independently of all the other bit streams ( BIP-8), : "Reliable link layer protocols". although it could also be used to refer to a larger Hamming code. This "extra" LRC word at the end of a block of data is very similar to checksum and cyclic redundancy check (CRC). Optimal rectangular code While simple longitudinal parity can only detect errors, it can be combined with additional error-control coding, such as a transverse redundancy check (TRC), to correct errors. The transverse redundancy check is stored on a dedicated "parity track". Whenever any single-bit error occurs in a transmission block of data, s ...

Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like Receptors
The leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are a family of receptors possessing extracellular immunoglobulin domains. They are also known as CD85, ILTs and LIR, and can exert immunomodulatory effects on a wide range of immune cells.Damian Brown, Rachel L Allen, & John Trowsdale. The LILR family: modulators of innate and adaptive immune pathways in health and disease. Tissue Antigens (2004) 64:215 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.0001-2815.2004.00290.x/pdf The human genes encoding these receptors are found in a gene cluster at chromosomal region 19q13.4. They include * LILRA1 * LILRA2 * LILRA3 * LILRA4 * LILRA5 * LILRA6 * LILRB1 * LILRB2 * LILRB3 * LILRB4 * LILRB5 * LILRB6 or LILRA6 * LILRB7 or LILRA5 A subset of LILR recognise MHC class I (also known as HLA class I in humans). The LILR family is a cluster of paired receptors with both activating and inhibitory functions. Of these, the inhibitory receptors LILRB1 and LILRB2 show a broad specific ...

Left-right Confusion
Body relative directions (also known as egocentric coordinates) are geometrical orientations relative to a body such as a human person's. The most common ones are: left and right; forward(s) and backward(s); up and down. They form three pairs of orthogonal axes. Traditions and conventions Since definitions of left and right based on the geometry of the natural environment are unwieldy, in practice, the meaning of relative direction words is conveyed through tradition, acculturation, education, and direct reference. One common definition of up and down uses gravity and the planet Earth as a frame of reference. Since there is a very noticeable force of gravity acting between the Earth and any other nearby object, down is defined as that direction which an object moves in reference to the Earth when the object is allowed to fall freely. Up is then defined as the opposite direction of down. Another common definition uses a human body, standing upright, as a frame of reference. In ...

Literary Review Of Canada
The ''Literary Review of Canada'' is a Canadian magazine that publishes ten times a year in print and online. The magazine features essays and reviews of books on political, cultural, social, and literary topics, as well as original Canadian poetry. History The ''Literary Review of Canada'' was founded in 1991 in Toronto by Patrice Dutil and published for the first time in November 1991. In late 1996, after publishing fifty-five issues, Dutil sold the magazine to Carleton University Press. In 1998, the magazine was sold to partners David Berlin, Denis Deneau, and, later, Helen Walsh. Berlin left in 2001, the same year that Mark Lovewell joined as partner and eventually co-publisher. Deneau left in early 2003. Bronwyn Drainie was hired as editor in 2003 and held the position until 2015. The magazine's editor from July 2016 until October 2018 was Sarmishta Subramanian. Kyle Wyatt has been the magazine's editor since January 2019. The ''Literary Review of Canada'' unveiled its lis ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Left, Right & Center
''Left, Right, & Center'' is a weekly hour-long public radio program that provides a "civilized yet provocative antidote to the self-contained opinion bubbles that dominate political debate". The program is also distributed as a political podcast. The show is recorded each Friday, produced by KCRW in Santa Monica, California, by Laura Dine Million, although hosts typically contribute over ISDN telephone lines from wherever they happen to be. After covering the week's events and speaking to invited guests about other topics of interest, each host gets a short period of time to rant about whatever they like without fear of rebuttal. Effective with the broadcast of July 7, 2017, the show expanded from a half-hour to a full hour and changed its long-time theme music—"Let's Call the Whole Thing Off", sung by Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong—with a new instrumental theme. In 2018, the show launched a spin-off, ''LRC Presents: All the President's Lawyers''. Co-hosted by Barr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
