Home directory

A home directory is a file system directory on a multi-user operating system containing files for a given user of the system. The specifics of the home directory (such as its name and location) is defined by the operating system involved; for example, Windows systems between 2000 and 2003 keep home directories in a folder called Documents and Settings.

Description

A user's home directory is intended to contain that user's files; including text documents, music, pictures or videos, etc. It may also include their configuration files of preferred settings for any software they have used there and might have tailored to their liking: web browser bookmarks, favorite desktop wallpaper and themes, passwords to any external services accessed via a given software, etc. The user can install executable software in this directory, but it will only be available to users with permission to this directory. The home directory can be organized further with the use of sub-directories.

The content of a user's home directory is protected by file system permissions, and by default is accessible to all authenticated users and administrators. Any other user that has been granted administrator privileges has authority to access any protected location on the filesystem including other users home directories.

Vodka Martini

A vodka Martini, also known as a vodkatini or kangaroo cocktail, is a cocktail made with vodka and vermouth, a variation of a martini.

A vodka Martini is made by combining vodka, dry vermouth and ice in a cocktail shaker or mixing glass. The ingredients are chilled, either by stirring or shaking, then strained and served "straight up" (without ice) in a chilled cocktail glass. The drink may be garnished with an olive, a "twist" (a strip of lemon peel squeezed or twisted), capers, or cocktail onions (with the onion garnish specifically yielding a vodka Gibson).

The vodka martini has become a common and popular cocktail, but some purists maintain that, while it is a perfectly fine drink, it is not a true Martini, which is traditionally made with gin.

Martini (surname)

Martini is an Italian surname. Notable people with the surname include:

MARTINI

MARTINI is a coarse-grained force field developed by Marrink and coworkers at the University of Groningen, initially developed in 2004 for molecular dynamics simulation of lipids, later (2007) extended to various other molecules. The force field applies a mapping of four heavy atoms to one CG interaction site and is parametrized with the aim of reproducing thermodynamic properties.

Philosophy

For the Martini force field 4 bead categories have been defined (Q (charged), P (polar), N (nonpolar) and C (apolar)). These bead types are in turn split in 4 or 5 different levels, giving a total of 20 beadtypes. For the interactions between the beads 10 different interaction levels are defined (O-IX). The beads can be used at normal size (4:1 mapping) or S-size (small, 3:1 mapping). The latter is mainly used in ring structures. Bonded interactions (bonds, angles, dihedrals and impropers) are derived from atomistic simulations of crystal structures.

Usage

The Martini force field has become one of the most used Coarse Grained force fields in the field of biomolecular molecular dynamics simulations. The original 2004 and 2007 papers have been cited 654 and 608 times, respectively. The force field has been implemented in three major simulations codes (Gromacs, Gromos and NAMD). Notable successes are simulations of the clustering behavior of syntaxin-1A, the simulations of the opening of MscL channels and the simulation of the domain partitioning of membrane peptides.
