Gor (film)
''Gor'' is a 1987 science fiction fantasy film. It was loosely based on the 1966 novel ''Tarnsman of Gor'', the first in the ''Gor'' series of sword and planet novels. The series was written by philosophy professor and author John Frederick Lange Jr. under his pen name John Norman. There was a sequel to the film, ''Outlaw of Gor'' (1989). Plot After being snubbed before a weekend-getaway by his teaching assistant, socially awkward professor of physics Tarl Cabot accidentally unlocks the magical properties of a ring which transports him to the planet Gor. After his arrival, Cabot encounters a village being attacked by the army of the tyrannical priest-king Sarm. Sarm's forces are invading neighboring settlements in an effort to retrieve the Home Stone, a mystical object that creates pathways between Gor and distant Earth. Cabot too is abruptly attacked by Sarm's warriors. After inadvertently killing Sarm's own son during the encounter, he is left for dead in the desert. He awakens ...

Global Ocean Race
The Global Ocean Race (GOR, previously known as ''Portimão Global Ocean Race'') is a yachting race for Class40 yachts which was first held in 2008–09. The second edition took place in 2011–12 and the third edition was scheduled to start in September 2015. The race was created for single- and doublehanded yachts (Category "Singlehand/Class 40" and “Doublehanded/Class 40") and small budgets. The two former professional yachtsmen Josh Hall and Brian Hancock were the initiators of the race. The GOR is the first Class-40-race leading through the Southern Ocean (Pacific) and around Cape Horn. History 2008–09 race The six yachts (two solo, four double-handed) started the first edition of the race on 12 October 12, 2008 in Portimão, Portugal. The finish was in June 2009. The race was divided into five legs: The first one lead from Portimão to Cape Town, the second to Wellington, New Zealand. Leg three ended in Ilhabela, Brazil.

Gas Oil Ratio
When oil is produced to surface temperature and pressure it is usual for some natural gas to come out of solution. The gas/oil ratio (GOR) is the ratio of the volume of gas ("scf") that comes out of solution to the volume of oil — at standard conditions. In reservoir simulation gas/oil ratio is usually abbreviated R_s. A point to check is whether the volume of oil is measured before or after the gas comes out of solution, since the remaining oil volume will decrease when the gas comes out. In fact, gas dissolution and oil volume shrinkage will happen at many stages during the path of the hydrocarbon stream from reservoir through the wellbore and processing plant to export. For light oils and rich gas condensate Natural-gas condensate, also called natural gas liquids, is a low-density mixture of hydrocarbon liquids that are present as gaseous components in the raw natural gas produced from many natural gas fields. Some gas species within the raw natur ...s the ultimate ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
GOR Method
The GOR method (short for Garnier–Osguthorpe–Robson) is an information theory-based method for the prediction of secondary structures in proteins. It was developed in the late 1970s shortly after the simpler Chou–Fasman method. Like Chou–Fasman, the GOR method is based on probability parameters derived from empirical studies of known protein tertiary structures solved by X-ray crystallography. However, unlike Chou–Fasman, the GOR method takes into account not only the propensities of individual amino acids to form particular secondary structures, but also the conditional probability of the amino acid to form a secondary structure given that its immediate neighbors have already formed that structure. The method is therefore essentially Bayesian in its analysis. Method The GOR method analyzes sequences to predict alpha helix, beta sheet, turn, or random coil In polymer chemistry, a random coil is a conformation of polymers where the monomer subunits are oriented randomly ...

Gor Language
Doba is a Central Sudanic language of Chad. It is traditionally considered three languages, because it is spoken by three ethnicities with separate identities, the Bedjond, the Mango, and the Gor. However, all have a high degree of mutual intelligibility In linguistics, mutual intelligibility is a relationship between languages or dialects in which speakers of different but related varieties can readily understand each other without prior familiarity or special effort. It is sometimes used as an ..., and so by that standard are a single language. Doba is the name of the town which is the center of the Mango people, and is used by linguists as a cover term for the three dialects. The number of speakers is uncertain, as the latest figure for the Bedjond, 36,000, dates from 1969. Figures for the Gor (87,000) and Mango (52,000) date from 2006. Bedjond is also spelled ''Bediondo'' and ''Bejondo,'' and is also known as ''Bediondo Mbai, Mbay Bejondo,'' and ''Nangnda''. Dialects are ...

Goring & Streatley Railway Station
Goring & Streatley railway station is on the Great Western Main Line serving the twin villages of Goring-on-Thames, Oxfordshire and Streatley, Berkshire in England. The station is in Goring-on-Thames, adjacent to the village centre and some five minutes walk from Goring and Streatley Bridge, which connects the village with Streatley, across the River Thames. It is down the line from and is situated between to the east and to the west. It is served by local services operated by Great Western Railway (GWR). The station has two side platforms (platform 1 on the down main line and platform 4 on the up relief line) and a central island platform with two faces (platform 2 on the up main line and platform 3 on the down relief line). Platforms 1 and 2 are only used when engineering works cause stopping trains to use the fast tracks, and the platform edges are closed off by fences incorporating normally closed (but not locked) gates. The main station building is to the east of the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Goldhawk Road Tube Station
Goldhawk Road is a London Underground station located in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, on the south side of Goldhawk Road, about west of Shepherd's Bush Green. It is served by the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines in Travelcard Zone 2. Although the line here was opened on 13 June 1864, a station was not opened at this location until 1 April 1914 when Shepherd's Bush station (now Shepherd's Bush Market) was moved from its original location between Uxbridge Road and Goldhawk Road to a location on the north side of Uxbridge Road. Station amenities The station currently benefits from a ticket office and two Passenger Operated Machines (or POM's). The larger POM, called a Multi Fare Machine (MFM) accepts UK Sterling notes, up to the value of £20 and gives change consisting of 10p, 50p, £1 and £2 coins. The smaller machine known as an Advance Fare Machine (AFM) does not give change and accepts overpayment up to 30p. Both machines accept most major Credit ...

Drâa-El-Gamra
Drâa-El-Gamra is an archaeological site in Tunisia, the site of the ancient city of Gor. It remains a Latin Catholic titular see. History In Antiquity the location was known as Gor. It was originally a Punic city. The Roman era ''civitas'', mentioned by Saint Augustine, was located beside the aqueduct to Carthage. Drâa-El-Gamra was the seat of an ancient episcopal see of the Roman province of Africa Proconsularis. Only two bishops are historically known. Victor took part in the council held at Carthage in 256 by Saint Cyprian to discuss the question of the ''lapsi''. Restitutus intervened at the Council of Carthage (411). Like most of the many suffragans of Carthage, it faded. Titular see Gor was nominally restored as a Latin titular bishopric in 1933. It has had the following incumbents, all of the fitting episcopal (lowest) rank: * Emanuele Hanisch, Mill Hill Missionaries (M.H.M.)
