Value Intensity
In ethics and social sciences, value denotes the degree of importance of something or action, with the aim of determining which actions are best to do or what way is best to live (normative ethics in ethics), or to describe the significance of different actions. Value systems are prospective and prescriptive beliefs; they affect the ethical behavior of a person or are the basis of their intentional activities. Often primary values are strong and secondary values are suitable for changes. What makes an action valuable may in turn depend on the ethical values of the objects it increases, decreases, or alters. An object with "ethic value" may be termed an "ethic or philosophic good" (noun sense). Values can be defined as broad preferences concerning appropriate courses of actions or outcomes. As such, values reflect a person's sense of right and wrong or what "ought" to be. "Equal rights for all", "Excellence deserves admiration", and "People should be treated with respect and dignit ...

Intensity (Art Pepper Album)
''Intensity'' is a 1960 jazz album by saxophonist Art Pepper playing with Dolo Coker, Jimmy Bond, and Frank Butler. The album was released in 1963. Reception The sleeve notes (by Lester Koenig) quote Richard Hadlock, jazz editor of the San Francisco ''Examiner'', who writes: :"As this and his last Contemporary release ''Smack Up!'', demonstrate, Art was well on his way toward a new kind of playing freedom in 1960. He had, partly through the examples of John Coltrane and Ornette Coleman, begun to set aside his few remaining inhibitions and reach out for still more direct contact with his emotions... A musician friend told me recently that sometimes Pepper's playing 'sounds like a man crying — it just tears you up.' I agree." AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow awarded the album 4.5 stars and called it an "interesting and largely enjoyable set". Yanow also echoed Hadlock's comments, writing that "Pepper was just starting to show the influence of John Coltrane and Ornette Colem ...

Intensity (novel)
''Intensity'' is a novel by the best-selling author Dean Koontz, released in 1995. According to Koontz, he wrote the novel with the intention of subverting the commonly-held idea that thrillers must have periods of low action to move the pace along, instead opting to keep the tension high throughout the novel and moving from conflict to conflict without periods of released tension. Plot summary Chyna Shepherd is a college student visiting the family of her friend, Laura Templeton, for a long weekend. Chyna, who was abused and neglected by her mother as a child, finds that the Templeton house provides something she has yearned for: acceptance. This comes to a violent end when serial killer Edgler Vess breaks into the house in the night and methodically kills all of the occupants except Laura and Chyna. After discovering that Laura has been tied up and raped, Chyna leaves, promising to return. Chyna hears Laura screaming and runs upstairs, intending to attack Vess with a knife. Bef ...

Exercise Intensity
Exercise intensity refers to how much energy is expended when exercising. Perceived intensity varies with each person. It has been found that intensity has an effect on what fuel the body uses and what kind of adaptations the body makes after exercise. Intensity is the amount of physical power (expressed as a percentage of the maximal oxygen consumption) that the body uses when performing an activity. For example, exercise intensity defines how hard the body has to work to walk a mile in 20 minutes. Measures of Intensity Heart Rate is typically used as a measure of exercise intensity. Heart rate can be an indicator of the challenge to the cardiovascular system that the exercise represents. The most precise measure of intensity is oxygen consumption (VO2). VO2 represents the overall metabolic challenge that an exercise imposes. There is a direct linear relationship between intensity of aerobic exercise and VO2. Our maximum intensity is a reflection of our maximal oxygen consumpti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Intensity (measure Theory)
In the mathematical discipline of measure theory, the intensity of a measure is the average value the measure assigns to an interval of length one. Definition Let \mu be a measure on the real numbers. Then the intensity \overline \mu of \mu is defined as : \overline \mu:= \lim_ \frac if the limit exists and is independent of s for all s \in \R . Example Look at the Lebesgue measure \lambda . Then for a fixed s , it is : \lambda((-s,t-s])=(t-s)-(-s)=t, so : \overline \lambda:= \lim_ \frac= \lim_ \frac t t =1. Therefore the Lebesgue measure has intensity one. Properties The set of all measures M for which the intensity is well defined is a measurable subset of the set of all measures on \R . The mapping : I \colon M \to \mathbb R defined by : I(\mu) = \overline \mu is Measurable function, measurable.

Floor Area Ratio
Floor area ratio (FAR) is the ratio of a building's total floor area (gross floor area) to the size of the piece of land upon which it is built. It is often used as one of the regulations in city planning along with the building-to-land ratio. The terms can also refer to limits imposed on such a ratio through zoning. Written as a formula, FAR = . Lower maximum-allowed floor area ratios are linked to lower land values and lower housing density. Terminology Floor Area ratio is sometimes called floor space ratio (FSR), floor space index (FSI), site ratio or plot ratio. The difference between FAR and FSI is that the first is a ratio, while the latter is an index. Index numbers are values expressed as a percentage of a single base figure. Thus an FAR of 1.5 is translated as an FSI of 150%. Regional variation The terms most commonly used for this measurement vary from one country or region to the next. In Australia ''floor space ratio'' (FSR) is used in New South Wales and ''plot ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
