![]() (Above: Children practice hockey, figure skating at the Ilderton Arena - where Scott Moir and Tessa Virtue got their start. They no longer visit the small town on London’s rim as frequently, but when they do, they’re greeted by five Olympic rings scattered across Ilderton in their honour. The facilities operator of the Ilderton Arena watched the duo train for about two decades. ‘How did you do it? Did you practice lots?’” asked eight-year-old Nick McClymont at the arena on Tuesday. (Above: Ilderton Ont., residents erected five Olympic rings in honour of Scott Moir and Tessa Virtue. Now, dozens of local children use the same rink as a training ground, looking up at posters of the eight-time national champs staring down at the time, hoping the talent will rub off. “They may have dreamed about being a flag bearer but I don’t think it’s something they thought was possible,” said Alma Moir, the 30-year-old’s mom. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and members of the Canadian Olympic Committee announced Tuesday that Moir, from Ilderton, and Virtue, from London, will lead about 230 Canadian athletes on Feb. It’s the glide to their skating, the musicality, how they treated each other and how hard they worked. “There was just something about them, something special. Alma is Scott Moir’s mother, and Carol is his aunt. (Above: Alma Moir, left, and Carol Moir, right are identical twins who both married brothers. Pegged as “hometown heroes” the duo’s figure skating victories are plastered across the walls of the southwestern Ontario arena - where Moir’s aunt Carol Moir, first paired the two together as their former coach. It was in an Ilderton Ont., community arena that a nine-year-old Scott Moir and seven-year-old Tessa Virtue would first meet, give into their butterflies and date for one month.Įven though the dynamic duo’s puppy love would quickly wither, they would remain inseparable, earning the responsibility of carrying the Canadian flag into the 2018 Olympic opening ceremony. The 2010 Olympic ice dance champions will try to return to the top of the podium after placing second in Sochi, Russia four years ago. (Above: Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir will be the first-ever Canadian woman and man to carry the Canadian flag into an Olympic opening ceremony on Feb. Medal winners or not, here were the Olympics’ most memorable routines when it came to the music, from a Beyoncé selection to an Elvis impression.‘Hometown heroes:’ Scott Moir and Tessa Virtue named Canada’s Olympic flag bearers (Plus lots of “ Despacito” for the Latin-themed part of the competition and a smattering of Ed Sheeran and Adele tunes.) But a number of performances stood out in particular for their unorthodox selections. ![]() New favorites popped up during the PyeongChang skating events, including pretty much anything by Coldplay (thanks, Shib Sibs and Adam Rippon!), covers of tear-jerker “Hallelujah” (shoutout to veteran skater Patrick Chan), and nods to bands like the Beatles, Snow Patrol, and Muse. While many skaters still stick to the classics when choosing what to perform to - selections from Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake and Bizet’s Carmen remain standard fare across the ice - others have started experimenting with pop and rock. (For pairs ice dancing, lyrics have been allowed for about a decade.) Following the 2014 Sochi Games, a rule change in the world of skating loosened the song selection process, enabling athletes to soundtrack their jumps and spins to music with lyrics. If you found the figure skating competition at this year’s 2018 Winter Olympics more exciting than usual, you’re not alone.

![]() On neurologic examination, the patient was oriented, with intact memory and cognition. The splenic tip was palpable no peripheral edema was found. The lungs and heart were normal on auscultation. A few shotty cervical lymph nodes were palpated. There was patchy, brownish pigmentation, with depressed, hyperpigmented areas, 2 to 5 mm in diameter, over both shins and ankles. On examination, the patient was thin and appeared older than his chronologic age. The temperature was 36.1☌, the pulse was 96, and the respirations were 20. He recalled having had headaches, visual changes, sweats, intermittent fevers, and back pain, all of uncertain duration, but he had not had any back injury, hematochezia, or melena. ![]() He smoked half a pack of cigarettes daily. He had abused alcohol but stopped drinking excessively 15 years before admission. He reported having had a positive test for infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) eight years earlier a subsequent test was negative. Three days after his discharge from the second hospital, he was admitted to this hospital. He promptly began to have numbness and “shooting pains” in the left foot and ankle, with dysesthesias in the foot he also had local motor weakness, without low back pain or sciatic pain. On the fifth hospital day, the patient was discharged while taking phenytoin, labetalol, clonidine, trazodone, bupropion, omeprazole, and potassium chloride, and a follow-up visit at this hospital was scheduled. Labetalol, clonidine, fluid, and electrolytes were given, and the hypertension diminished. A cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) study was believed to suggest the presence of a low-grade occipital neoplasm. A computed tomographic (CT) scan of the brain was reported to show no evidence of intracranial hemorrhage. A lumbar puncture yielded acellular cerebrospinal fluid that was sterile on culture the glucose level was 59 mg per milliliter (3.3 mmol per liter), and the protein level was 71 mg per deciliter. An electrocardiogram revealed sinus tachycardia with diffuse, nonspecific ST- and T-wave abnormalities. Laboratory tests were performed ( Table 1 and Table 2). The initial blood pressure was 240/130 mm Hg. He was taken to a second hospital, where another seizure was controlled with phenytoin sodium and a benzodiazepine. One week later, shaking occurred in the patient's left leg and spread to his left arm he lost consciousness and had a witnessed generalized tonic–clonic seizure. Supportive care included parenteral nutrition. The results of tests for hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus were reported to be positive. Five weeks before admission, he was admitted to another hospital, where hypertension was diagnosed. He noted erythematous lumps over the shins and ankles the lumps waxed and waned for a month before healing. Three months before admission, tingling developed in the left toes and progressed to numbness in the foot these symptoms were accompanied by recurrent vomiting, night sweats, intermittent diarrhea, abdominal pain, subjective fever, and a weight loss of 16 kg. One year before admission, he discontinued his use of illicit drugs and began to feel vaguely unwell. The patient had an 18-year history of intravenous drug abuse, including abuse of heroin and cocaine with needle sharing. ![]() The most trusted, influential source of new medical knowledge and clinical best practices in the world.Ī 36-year-old, right-handed man was admitted to the hospital because of seizures and severe hypertension.

The innate immune system includes physical barriers, such as the skin and gut epithelium, that help prevent pathogen entry. The immune system defends the body against pathogens that cause disease and is comprised of innate responses, which are the first line of defense, and adaptive responses, which become engaged later.

Jones, T.D.: "Passions in Perspective: An Analytical Discussion of the Three Passion Settings of Heinrich Schütz (1585-1672) against their Historical and Stylistic Backgrounds", (Ph.D. However, it is also important not to seek examples of musical figures on every page while rhetoric and musical theory were strongly associated, the nature of this association was complex and variable. However, it must be pointed out that such analogies were not always direct: terms used in musica poetica do not always correspond equivalently to their rhetorical counterparts (for example, in oratory, anaphora means a straightforward repetition of a word, but in music it can denote various kinds of repetitive device, such as the development of a subject through imitation ( fugue) also, the presence of a rhetorical figure in the text being set to music did not imply an automatic application of that figure's musical equivalent (that is, it was never mandatory for composers to respond to such verbal ideas as "going up" with rising musical phrases (known as anabasis or ascensus in musica poetica).Ī knowledge of both Classical rhetoric and musica poetica can greatly enhance the listener's understanding and appreciation of works composed in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, especially by such figures as Heinrich Schütz and Giacomo Carissimi. ![]() Most significantly, though, special melodic, harmonic, or technical devices in music began to be associated with the figures of Classical oratory: for example, a rising or falling sequence in music was usually called climax in the literature of musica poetica. Another kind of analogy was to liken the rules or grammar of composition with those of speech, as illustrated by Joachim Burmeister's use of tautoëpia to label consecutive fifths and octaves (which were generally regarded as illegal except in special circumstances). ![]() Gallus Dressler (1563) suggested to liken the structure of a musical composition with that of a speech, as outlined in Classical sources, dividing it into such sections as exordium, medium and finis (literally, "beginning", "middle" and "end"). Hence, the term musica poetica.Īnalogies between music and the rhetorical arts were made on several levels. ![]() Since music of the time primarily meant vocal music, it was natural for theorists to make analogies between the composition of music and the composition of oratory or poetry. Previously, music had been divided into musica theoretica and musica practica, which were categorised with the quadrivium and trivium, respectively. Its first known use was in the Rudimenta Musicae Planae (Wittenberg: 1533) of Nicolaus Listenius. Musica poetica was a term commonly applied to the art of composing music in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century German schools and universities.

![]() Philosophically, the difficulty implicit in the description of omnipresence arises out of the fact that whereas man is limited by space, God is not. Thus the Christian does walk with God, not with a part of God. In the same way or, better, for the same reason, Christ may be fully united to each believer as if that single believer were the only one to receive His presence. was fully God while at the same time God who filled and governed the universe. This is the intellectual problem and the theological support for the full deity of Christ who in Pal. His nature cannot be multiplied at various points where it is operating, nor is His nature diffused. There can be no parts at work here and there. All of Him is everywhere because His omnipresence is of His essence. This leaves the door open to miracles, for He is in and through all things as He wills to be.Īgainst all finite logic it must be held also that at every point in the universe it is God’s whole presence which is present. What one observes as the uniformity of nature and the reign of law are nothing but the steady will of the omnipresent God. Not so with His own Being, for this is of the essence. He wills to uphold the existence of all things, and He could, by the same token, will not to uphold all things, and existence would end. He “inbreathes” it and “inspires” it, but His spiritual presence is not bound but free. Although He penetrates and fills all its parts, He is not a part of it. ![]() It opposes the earlier Socinian view and the later Deistic view or any other approach that would put God in His heaven running the universe by setting it in motion and then removing Himself from it.īy the same token, it must be steadily maintained that God is not by His omnipresence bound by the universe that He has brought into existence. Although the idea of omnipresence seems inconceivable to finite minds, the fact of it must be steadily maintained. Part of the miracle of creation is that God’s omnipresence does not exclude the existence of persons and things, but rather is the “ground of being” (Tillich) which makes all other existence possible because of His Being. As a spiritual rather than a material being, He is able to penetrate and fill the universe in all its parts. It follows from the above that the omnipresence of God is of His very essence, truly an attribute. Or, more inclusively, if possible, “Do I not fill heaven and earth? says the Lord” ( Jer 23:24). “Do not say in your heart ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down) or ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead)” ( Rom 10:6, 7), or “Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? Or whither shall I flee from thy presence?” ( Ps 139:7). Neither the noun “omnipresence” nor the adjective “omnipresent” occurs anywhere in Scripture, but the idea is a Scriptural necessity: God’s presence everywhere not only is assumed in Scripture, but is frequently explicitly formulated.

The frequency of the sound in the air f air is the same as that in the metal rod f metal, that is f air = f metal. Of the sound waves in the air can be obtained by measuring the distance between consecutive Antinodes (the distance is equal to 1/2 of wavelength). The Antinode is located at the center of each striation (grooves) formed by the maximum displacement of the powder. The nodes are labeled N in the above figure and the antinodes are labeled A. These standing waves can be observed by lightly coating the inside of the glass tube with a very dry powder (cork dust). The antinodes of the standing wave pattern are the points in which the air molecules have a maximum displacement, whereas the nodes are the points in which the air molecules are not displaced. If the length of the air column is correct, then a standing wave pattern is set up inside the air column. The air in the glass tube is simultaneously acted upon by two sets of waves traveling in opposite directions. When the sound waves enter the air column from the disk, they travel along the length of the glass column, strike the end of the tube, and are reflected back up the tube. The vibrating disk, in turn, causes the air inside the glass tube to vibrate with the same frequency as the rod. The rod's vibrations are transmitted to the disk so that the disk moves back and forth with the end of the rod. The far end of the air column is either closed (with a rubber stopper, or a cork), or left open, and the other end of the air column is a disk, which is attached to one end of the vibrating metal rod. Part of the metal rod is inside a glass tube filled with air, forming an air column. The sound waves passing through the metal rod can be transmitted to a gas such as air by means of an apparatus that is known as Kundt's tube. Of the sound waves in the metal rod is twice the length of the rod, that is Standing waves are set up in the rod and if the rod is clamped at its center, the midpoint of the rod is a node of the standing wave and each end of the rod is an antinode of the standing wave. Sound waves may be sent through a metal rod by stroking one end of the rod with a rosined piece of cloth or leather. ![]() Where Y is the Young's modulus for the substance through which the sound is passing andĮxperimental Determination of the Speed of Sound in a Metal. The speed of sound v through a metal rod is given by Therefore, they respond to each other's motions and are able to transmit a wave disturbance through the materials. ![]() This seems reasonable because the molecules in an elastic material are tightly coupled. In general, the stiffer a material is, the faster sound travels through it. The speed of sound in a material depends on the compressibility (elasticity) and density of the material through which it is passing. Sound waves travel through solids, liquids, and gases at different speeds. The wavelength of a longitudinal wave is the distance between any two consecutive compressions or rarefactions. The frequency of a longitudinal wave is the number of compressions or rarefactions that pass any point in the elastic medium in one second. Thus the speed v of a sound wave is given by Sound waves also obey the fundamental equation of wave propagation. When the molecules are spread farther apart than normal, the region of lower density is called a rarefaction. When the molecules are forced closer together than normal, the region of higher density and pressure is called a compression or condensation. The elastic medium in the path of the sound waves becomes alternately denser and rarer. The source of sound waves is a vibrating object such as loud speaker, a tuning fork, or a metal rod. Sound waves are longitudinal waves traveling through an elastic medium. Exp.3 Kundt's Tube - The Speed of Sound in Metals Theory |
