Weingarten, Württemberg
Weingarten (, German for "wine garden"; Low Alemannic: ''Wãẽgaade'') is a town with a population of 25,000 () in Württemberg, in the District of Ravensburg, in the valley of the Schussen River. Together with the southern neighbour cities of Ravensburg and Friedrichshafen on Lake Constance (Bodensee), it forms one of 14 medium-sized infrastructural centres in Baden-Württemberg. The town is seat of the University of Applied Sciences of Ravensburg-Weingarten (''Hochschule Ravensburg-Weingarten'') and of the Teachers' College of Weingarten (''Pädagogische Hochschule Weingarten''). History The town was formerly known as Altdorf and was renamed to Weingarten in 1865. Before that, Weingarten was the name of Weingarten Abbey only, which lay on the Martinsberg ( St. Martin's hill) above the town. The name "Altdorf" is derived from the Frankish ''alach'' for "church". So "Altdorf" does not mean "old village" but "village/thorp with the parish church". Near the old town, an Alema ...

A second store opened in 1920. Advertising "Better Food for Less," Joseph Joe Weingarten pioneered self-service and cash-and-carry shopping. Weingarten's chain of stores in Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana grew by 1926 to six; by 1938 the company had 12 stores; by 1951 there were 25 stores; and by 1967 the chain operated 70 stores. To concentrate on real estate development for retail shopping centers, Weingarten Incorporated sold its stores, which had grown to a chain of 104 stores in five states, to Grand Union in 1980. In 1980 Weingarten had 18% of the Houston area grocery market share.Sit-DuVall, Mary.`Right' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Wingard, Saskatchewan
Wingard is an unincorporated community in Duck Lake No. 436, Saskatchewan, Canada. Wingard is seven miles north-east of Fort Carlton and twelve miles north-west of Duck Lake. History Wingard history dates back to 1882 when Danish settler Nels Peterson established a farm at the site, along the North Saskatchewan River a short distance from Fort Carlton. Peterson named the settlement "Weingarten" which is Danish for "Wine Garden", but later English and Anglo-Metis settlers anglicized the name to "Wingard." During the North-West Rebellion of 1885, Peterson and the other settlers fled to Prince Albert to escape Gabriel Dumont's victorious rebels after the Battle of Duck Lake, alongside the retreating North-West Mounted Police and Prince Albert Volunteers. They later returned to the community following the Battle of Batoche. Wingard Ferry is the only remaining ferry on the North Saskatchewan between The Battlefords and Prince Albert. The first ferry was established by Nels P ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Weingarten Manuscript
The Weingarten Manuscript (German ''Weingartner Liederhandschrift'') is a 14th-century illuminated manuscript containing a collection of Minnesang lyrics. It is currently in the Württembergische Landesbibliothek, Stuttgart, with the shelf-mark HB XIII 1. In Minnesang scholarship it is referred to as Manuscript B. Along with the Codex Manesse (MS. C) and the Kleine Heidelberger Liederhandschrift (MS. A) it is one of the major sources of Minnesang texts from the beginnings (around 1150) to the end of the "golden age" (around 1230). Description The manuscript comprises 158 folios and is 15cm×11.5cm in size, the small size suggesting that it was for private use. It contains collections of lyrics by 31 poets: 25 are named Minnesänger and the other six are not named, but the authors are identifiable from texts preserved in other MSS. The MS. contains miniatures of the 25 named Minnesänger, two half-page, the rest full-page. Most of the poems are love lyrics but among the anonymous ...

Weingarten Rights
In 1975 the United States Supreme Court in the case of '' NLRB v. J. Weingarten, Inc.'' upheld a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) decision that employees have a right to union representation at investigatory interviews. These rights have become known as the Weingarten Rights. During an investigatory interview, the Supreme Court ruled that the following rules apply: ; Rule 1: The employee must make a clear request for union representation before or during the interview. The employee cannot be punished for making this request. ; Rule 2: After the employee makes the request, the employer must choose from among three options: * Grant the request and delay questioning until the union representative arrives and (prior to the interview continuing) the representative has a chance to consult privately with the employee; * Deny the request and end the interview immediately; or * Give the employee a clear choice between having the interview without representation, or ending the inte ...

Weingarten Equations
The Weingarten equations give the expansion of the derivative of the unit normal vector to a surface in terms of the first derivatives of the position vector of a point on the surface. These formulas were established in 1861 by the German mathematician Julius Weingarten. Statement in classical differential geometry Let ''S'' be a surface in three-dimensional Euclidean space that is parametrized by the position vector r(''u'', ''v''). Let ''P'' = ''P''(''u'', ''v'') be a point on the surface. Then : \mathbf_ = \frac , \quad \mathbf_ = \frac are two tangent vectors at point ''P''. Let n(''u'', ''v'') be the unit normal vector and let (''E'', ''F'', ''G'') and (''L'', ''M'', ''N'') be the coefficients of the first and second fundamental forms of this surface, respectively. The Weingarten equation gives the first derivative of the unit normal vector n at point ''P'' in terms of the tangent vectors r''u'' and r''v'': :\mathbf_u = \frac \mathbf_u + \frac \mathbf_v :\mathbf_v ...
