Faraway Hill Faraway Hill was the first soap opera broadcast on an American television network, airing on the DuMont Television Network[1] on Wednesday nights at 9:00 PM[2] between October 2 and December 18, 1946. Synopsis[edit] A widowed New York City resident, Karen St. John (played by Flora Campbell), moved to a small town to be near relatives. There she met a man who had been adopted by her family, and with whom she fell in love. However, he was already engaged to another woman. Jim Von Schilling, in his book, The Magic Window: American Television, 1939-1953, wrote, "Soap operas were popular on radio during the 1930s and 1940s; Faraway Hill simply brought the genre to television, where real arms were embraced, real tears shed, and where a card reading 'Continued Next Week' was held before the camera at each episode's climax Broadcast history[edit] The series ran from October 2, 1946, to December 18, 1946.

Look no further than the random word generator! How does it work? By analyising the frequency of pairs of letters in 45,402 different words it is possible to generate new words which, although don't have any meaning, are reasonably syntactically correct. You can refresh the page for 20 new words, or, if you fancy, you can enter a couple of letters to influence how the generated words start. Since the 5th November 2006, this site has generated 49,453,880 random words.

Soap opera Un soap opera (anglicisme, parfois abrégé en soap) ou roman-savon (au Québec) est un type de feuilleton radiophonique ou télévisé. Cette désignation provient du fait que les premiers feuilletons radiophoniques américains étaient produits et commandités par des fabricants de savon et autres produits d'hygiène et d'entretien comme Procter & Gamble, Colgate-Palmolive et Lever Brothers[1],[2]. Caractéristiques[modifier | modifier le code] Thématique et personnages[modifier | modifier le code] Dans de nombreux soap operas, en particulier les soaps diffusés en journée aux États-Unis, les personnages sont beaux, séduisants, glamour et riches. Narration[modifier | modifier le code] Selon le critique Albert Moran, le soap opera est « un programme télévisuel basé sur une narration perpétuellement ouverte. Un soap opera repose sur plusieurs intrigues parallèles. Les intrigues des soaps sont parfois complexes, voire confuses. Exemples de soap operas[modifier | modifier le code]
SCIgen - An Automatic CS Paper Generator SCIgen - An Automatic CS Paper Generator About SCIgen is a program that generates random Computer Science research papers, including graphs, figures, and citations. It uses a hand-written context-free grammar to form all elements of the papers. Our aim here is to maximize amusement, rather than coherence. One useful purpose for such a program is to auto-generate submissions to conferences that you suspect might have very low submission standards. We went to WMSCI 2005. Also, check out our 10th anniversary celebration project: SCIpher! Generate a Random Paper Want to generate a random CS paper of your own? SCIgen currently supports Latin-1 characters, but not the full Unicode character set. Examples Here are two papers we submitted to WMSCI 2005: Rooter: A Methodology for the Typical Unification of Access Points and Redundancy (PS, PDF) Jeremy Stribling, Daniel Aguayo and Maxwell Krohn This paper was accepted as a "non-reviewed" paper! Talks As promised, we videotaped the whole thing. Code
Soft boy To not be confused with a fuckboy, though they are very similar. A softboy may or may not have a cocky attitude, but if he does, it's all a facade or front. He will claim to be into a girl for her personality and create the impression that he's really trying to get to know a girl below the surface. He'll lead a girl on by continuing to have sex with her knowing he's not interested in her or anything long-term, regardless of whether or not she has or is developing feelings for him.

Shaney is a synthetic Usenet user whose postings in the net.singles newsgroups were generated by Markov chain techniques, based on text from other postings. The system was designed by Rob Pike with coding by Bruce Ellis.

Other quotations from Mark's Usenet posts are:[2] "I spent an interesting evening recently with a grain of salt." History[edit] In The Usenet Handbook Mark Harrison writes that after September 1981, students joined Usenet en masse, "creating the USENET we know today: endless dumb questions, endless idiots posing as savants, and (of course) endless victims for practical jokes."

Romantic Feminism With its emphasis on feeling and reflection, the Romantic Period is often seen as a reaction to the Age of Enlightenment's desire to acquire knowledge. This shift in values allowed men to engage with each other more democratically, since feeling is more about personal response than rational control. The Romantic atmosphere, vibrating with ideas about individual liberty, seemed ideal for recognizing women as deserving equals. Before bringing these challenges to the legal front, these early feminists sought to redefine common understandings about women and to change social standards first. Regardless of which particular issue was being addressed, women in the Romantic period claimed that improper education was the source of the problem. Without a proper education, Romantic feminists argued, feminine sensibility was artificially constituted. Kat Powell
Cuarenta siglos del Oulipo, Marcel Bénabou Para los oulipianos, un año vale un siglo. He aquí la larga historia de un grupo que, sumando conceptos matemáticos y restricciones literarias, explora los recursos infinitos de la lengua. Los miembros del Oulipo acostumbran definirse como: " Ratas que deben construir ellas mismas el laberinto del cual se proponen salir"(1) (Tienen cierta coquetería). Pero habría que desglosar esta fórmula. Para ello, sumerjámonos un poco en la historia. Bajo la dirección de sus dos fundadores, Raymond Queneau y su cómplice intelectual, François Le Lionnais (sin duda el más prodigioso coleccionista de saberes de su generación), el grupo reunió una decena de personajes tan marginales como inventivos: Noël Arnaud, Jacques Bens, Claude Berge, Paul Braffort, Jacques Duchateau, Latis, Jean Lescure, Jean Queval, Albert-Marie Schmidt(3). De entrada se negó a reconocerse como un movimiento literario. Aclarado esto, una definición más optimista del proyecto se hizo realidad. Del buen uso de la restricción
