It was re-released on DVD by Renown Pictures ltd. in 2010.
Two young kids open a trendy coffee bar and discover a star.
The Kasakela chimpanzee community is a habituated community of wild eastern chimpanzees that lives in Gombe National Park near Lake Tanganyika in Tanzania. The community was the subject of Dr Jane Goodall's pioneering study that began in 1960, and studies have continued ever since. As a result, the community has been instrumental in the study of chimpanzees, and has been popularized in several books and documentaries. The community's popularity was enhanced by Dr Goodall's practice of giving names to the chimpanzees she was observing, in contrast to the typical scientific practice of identifying the subjects by number. Dr Goodall generally used a naming convention in which infants were given names starting with the same letter as their mother, allowing the recognition of matrilineal lines.
Golden is the debut album from second-season NZ Idol winner Rosita Vai, released in New Zealand on 1 November 2005.
Golden debuted on the official New Zealand albums chart at number 15, but fell to number 25 its second week. In its third week, the album fell to number 33, and then it dropped out of the Top 40 completely. Despite the fact that it received very positive critical reviews, the album spent a mere three weeks on the chart and sold less than 7,000 copies. It therefore failed to reach gold status (7,500 copies sold).
Rosita's New Zealand Idol winner's song, "All I Ask", was the only single released from the album on 18 October 2005. It debuted at number 1 on the official New Zealand singles chart, a position that it held for two consecutive weeks. The single remained in the top 40 for 9 weeks and was certified double platinum (30,000 copies sold). The album's title track was originally slated to be released as the second single, however this never materialised.
"Golden" is the first single released by American soul and R&B singer-songwriter Jill Scott, from her third album Beautifully Human: Words and Sounds Vol. 2. The song peaked at 59 on the UK Singles Chart. It was also featured in 2008's Grand Theft Auto IV game and soundtrack, and also is played in the films Beauty Shop (2005) and Obsessed (2009).
Disc is an experimental group formed by Miguel Depedro (Kid606), Jason Doerck (J Lesser), M. C. Schmidt and Drew Daniel (Matmos). The group was most active between 1997 and 1999.
To produce their sound, digital media (DATs, CDs) were etched and painted, or used in broken players to produce new sounds. In Gaijincd4, a "bonus" nonfunctional CD was included to suggest a multimedia disc. The double LP Transfer consisted entirely of locked grooves.
A disc is a component of disc galaxies, such as spiral galaxies, or lenticular galaxies.
The galactic disc is the plane in which the spirals, bars and discs of disc galaxies exist. Galactic discs tend to have more gas and dust and younger stars than galactic bulges or galactic haloes.
The galactic disc is mainly composed of gas, dust and stars. The gas and dust component of the galactic disc is called the gaseous disc. The star component of the galactic disc is called the stellar disc.
It has been noted that the orbital velocity of stars in the disc of most disc galaxies is inconsistent with the amount of luminous matter calculated for the galaxy. A possible explanation for this problem is the non-luminous dark matter.
In geometry, a disk (also spelled disc) is the region in a plane bounded by a circle. A disk is said to be closed or open according to whether it contains the circle that constitutes its boundary.
In Cartesian coordinates, the open disk of center and radius R is given by the formula
while the closed disk of the same center and radius is given by
The area of a closed or open disk of radius R is πR2 (see area of a disk).
The disk has circular symmetry.
The open disk and the closed disk are not topologically equivalent (that is, they are not homeomorphic), as they have different topological properties from each other. For instance, every closed disk is compact whereas every open disk is not compact. However from the viewpoint of algebraic topology they share many properties: both of them are contractible and so are homotopy equivalent to a single point. This implies that their fundamental groups are trivial, and all homology groups are trivial except the 0th one, which is isomorphic to Z. The Euler characteristic of a point (and therefore also that of a closed or open disk) is 1.
