Although only available in the Kansai region of Japan^[3], the single reached number 50 on the Oricon charts. As a result of its popularity, Yaida was subsequently offered a recording contract with Toshiba-EMI.

This was Aozora's first ever release as the label itself was established the same day as the single was released. Aozora benefited from the attention this single attracted, also selling distribution contracts to Toshiba-EMI for its future catalogue.

Howling (The Saints album)

Howling is the ninth studio album released by The Saints. The album was their first release after an eight-year recording hiatus. This time Chris Bailey chose to lose the big production of the 1980s records to make an album that was more akin to the early Saints punk sound. However, instead of teaming up with the original members Bailey again employed a new line-up for the band, making this The Saints Mark III. The album was released to mixed reviews in mid 1996 in Australia and in 1997 everywhere else in the world.

Abingdon Boys School discography

The discography of Japanese rock band Abingdon Boys School includes two studio albums, eight singles, three video albums, one compilation album, eight soundtracks, and seven other appearances in releases not under its name. Abingdon Boys School (stylized as "abingdon boys school" or abbreviated "a.b.s"), was formed in 2005 by Takanori Nishikawa, or T.M.Revolution, who originally named the band ABS after Ebisu, Tokyo, Japan and later changed the band's name to Abingdon Boys School, a school formerly attended by members of Radiohead. The band plays alternative rock and is currently signed to Epic Records Japan.

Abingdon Boys School has contributed to the soundtracks of numerous anime and video game series and several tribute albums. Their music has been used as opening or closing tracks for anime series, including Darker than Black, Soul Eater, and Tokyo Magnitude 8.0, and games, including Sengoku Basara. In addition, they have also contributed to tribute albums to the manga Nana and the rock bands Luna Sea and Buck-Tick. They also perform in a live DVD by Buck-Tick.

Ribbon (mathematics)

In mathematics (differential geometry) by a ribbon (or strip) $(X,U)$ is meant a smooth space curve $X$ given by a three-dimensional vector $X(s)$ , depending continuously on the curve arc-length $s$ ( $a\leq s \leq b$ ), together with a smoothly varying unit vector $U(s)$ perpendicular to $X$ at each point (Blaschke 1950).

The ribbon $(X,U)$ is called simple and closed if $X$ is simple (i.e. without self-intersections) and closed and if $U$ and all its derivatives agree at $a$ and $b$ . For any simple closed ribbon the curves $X+\varepsilon U$ given parametrically by $X(s)+\varepsilon U(s)$ are, for all sufficiently small positive $\varepsilon$ , simple closed curves disjoint from $X$ .

The ribbon concept plays an important role in the Cǎlugǎreǎnu-White-Fuller formula (Fuller 1971), that states that

where $Lk$ is the asymptotic (Gauss) linking number (a topological quantity), $Wr$ denotes the total writhing number (or simply writhe) and $Tw$ is the total twist number (or simply twist).

Ribbon theory investigates geometric and topological aspects of a mathematical reference ribbon associated with physical and biological properties, such as those arising in topological fluid dynamics, DNA modeling and in material science.

Ribbon (rhythmic gymnastics)

Ribbon is a component of rhythmic gymnastics composed of a handle (called "stick"), a ribbon and attachment.

Stick

This can be of any colour and made of wood, bamboo or plastic with a maximum diameter of 1 cm (²/₅") at its widest, a cylindrical or conical shape and should have a length of 50–60cm (20–24") (including the fastening ring). The bottom end of the stick may be covered by an adhesive, anti-slip tape or may have a rubber handle for a maximum length of 10 cm (4") at the level of the grip. The top of the stick, where the ribbon will be attached, may consist of:

a supple strap (of string or nylon) held in place by a nylon thread wound round the stick for a maximum 5 cm (2").

a metal ring fixed directly onto the stick.

a metal ring (vertical, horizontal or oblique) fixed to the stick by two metal pins held in place by nylon or metallic thread round wound around the stick for the maximum 5 cm (2").

a metal ring (fixed, mobile or pivoting) or a supple strap, fixed to a metal tip of no more than 3 cm (1.2").

Ribbon (award)

A ribbon is an award made from ribbon and presented to mark an achievement. Such ribbons usually have a pin, brooch or bridle clip as a fastener with which the award can be attached to clothing, animals, walls, or other surfaces.

Award ribbons can be simply a flat piece of ribbon, a flat-folded ribbon, or fancier manipulations of the ribbon material, such as rosettes. A rosette consists of ribbon that is pleated or gathered and arranged in a circle so that it resembles a rose, usually with streamer ribbons attached. Some ribbon rosettes will also have loops, petals and star points as part of the design whilst using Satin ribbons, Velvet ribbons, Sheer ribbons, Lamé ribbons, Tartan ribbons and printed ribbons including personalised printed ribbons to promote the sponsor, event or the reason for giving.

Ribbons are usually imprinted with information about the award, such as the name of the event, the sponsoring organization, the placement (such as first place, second place, etc.), and the date. More sophisticated awards also include the name of the recipient, special motifs and logos.
