TKO (Babylon 5)

"TKO" is an episode from the first season of the science fiction television series Babylon 5.

Synopsis

As Susan Ivanova comes to terms with her father's death (see Born to the Purple), an old friend of Garibaldi's comes to the station to participate in a dangerous alien martial arts contest.

Garibaldi arrests two aliens who are trying to buy illegal drugs (called "slappers" because the drugs are absorbed from a skin patch), one of the aliens is about to stab him, but then an old friend of Garibaldi's punches the man who was about to stab him.

Meanwhile Susan's father's friend Rabbi Koslov, comes to her and tries to convince her to sit shiva for her father, which includes going over her head to Sinclair. That last move is particularly upsetting to Susan who consider an unwanted intrusion in her life like her father would have done.

Garibaldi's friend, Walker Smith, tells him that since he can no longer box commercially due to being "framed like a picture," he is going to compete in the mutai, a savage alien fighting arena. The muta-do, or head of the mutai aboard, will not let him compete. Another alien also says that if he or any other human competes in the mutai, they will get trouble.

TKO (Knock You Out)

"TKO (Knock You Out)" is a song written by Lars Erlandsson, Fredrik Lenander and Paul Rein, and performed by the Swedish pop girl group, Bubbles at Melodifestivalen 2003. From the fourth semifinal in the town of Sundsvall, the song made it through Tittarnas val, to the finals inside the Stockholm Globe Arena, where it ended up ninth. The song was also released as a single., peaking at 7th position at the Swedish singles chart.

The song received a Svensktoppen test on 6 April 2003, but failed to enter chart.

Dynamics

Every object experiences some form of motion which is the result of different forces acting on the object. Dynamics is the study of the forces which are responsible for this motion. Dynamics (from Greek δυναμικός dynamikos "powerful", from δύναμις dynamis "power") may refer to:

Rigid body dynamics

Rigid-body dynamics studies the movement of systems of interconnected bodies under the action of external forces. The assumption that the bodies are rigid, which means that they do not deform under the action of applied forces, simplifies the analysis by reducing the parameters that describe the configuration of the system to the translation and rotation of reference frames attached to each body. This excludes bodies that display fluid highly elastic, and plastic behavior.

The dynamics of a rigid body system is described by the laws of kinematics and by the application of Newton's second law (kinetics) or their derivative form Lagrangian mechanics. The solution of these equations of motion provides a description of the position, the motion and the acceleration of the individual components of the system and overall the system itself, as a function of time. The formulation and solution of rigid body dynamics is an important tool in the computer simulation of mechanical systems.

Dynamic (record label)

Dynamic is an Italian independent record label located in Genoa. Founded in 1978, it specialises in classical music and opera, especially rarely performed works and has produced several world premiere recordings. The Dynamic catalogue contains over 400 titles, with about 25 new titles added each year and is distributed in 32 countries.

History

Dynamic was founded in 1978 by Pietro Mosetti Casaretto and his wife Marisa. Mosetti Casaretto, a surgeon and amateur violinist, took over a small label founded by the musicologist Edward Neill. In the beginning, Dynamic was a small family business. Mosetti Casaretto and his wife recorded in local churches, oratories and villas. The first recordings were issued on vinyl, the very first one being Paganini's Barucabà Variations played by Salvatore Accardo.

In 1985 the company moved to its current site in the Villa Quartana on the Righi hill overlooking Genoa, where it set up a recording hall that could house a small chamber orchestra. In the late 1990s Mosetti Casaretto retired, and management of the label was taken over by his son-in-law, Alberto Dellepiane. Over the years, the label's focus on chamber music and particularly violin music has widened to include full-length opera recordings on both CD and DVD. More recently, Dynamic has become a high definition content producer for television and cinema.
