Republic Of Artsakh
Artsakh ( ), officially the Republic of Artsakh or the Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh ( ), was a breakaway state in the South Caucasus whose territory was internationally recognised as part of Azerbaijan. Between 1991 and 2023, Artsakh controlled parts of the former Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast of the Azerbaijani Soviet Socialist Republic, including its capital Stepanakert. It had been an enclave within Azerbaijan from the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war until the 2023 Azerbaijani offensive, when the Azerbaijani military took control over the remaining territory controlled by Artsakh. Its only overland access route to Armenia after the 2020 war was via the Lachin corridor, which was placed under the supervision of Russian peacekeeping forces. The predominantly Armenian-populated region of Nagorno-Karabakh was claimed by both the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic and the First Republic of Armenia when both countries became independent in 1918 after the fall of the Rus ...

Ruger Old Army
The Ruger Old Army is a black-powder percussion revolver introduced in 1972 by the Sturm, Ruger company and manufactured through 2008. Models were available with either a or barrel. Design The Ruger Old Army revolver is unusual in that, unlike most percussion revolvers on the market, it was not based on a historical design, but was a modification of Ruger's Blackhawk model, which was itself based upon the cartridge-firing Colt Peacemaker. The Old Army revolver accordingly incorporates many modern design features, though employing antiquated black-powder component loading. This design was built around the Blackhawk, but it takes its styling cues from the Spiller and Burr cap and ball pistol. This is due to the frame being longer in front to accommodate the loading lever and pivot pin. Earlier models were listed as .44 caliber, later as .45, but all use a .457" round ball or .454" conical lead bullet. The Ruger Old Army can also shoot modern smokeless cartridges in .45 Colt (.45 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Reformed Armenian Orthography

Its main features "were the neutralization of classical, etymological writing and the adjustment of phonetic realization and writing." The original orthography is now known as the classical orthography ( ''dasakan uġġagrut'yun'') and is sometimes referred to as ''Mashtotsian orthography'' (), after Mesrop Mashtots, who invented the Armenian alphabet in 405 AD. This reform is not to be confused with the 13th-century alphabet extension introducing letters and .

Resource-oriented Architecture
In software engineering, a resource-oriented architecture (ROA) is a style of software architecture and programming paradigm for supportive designing and developing software in the form of Internetworking of resources with "RESTful" interfaces. These resources are software components (discrete pieces of code and/or data structures) which can be reused for different purposes. ROA design principles and guidelines are used during the phases of software development and system integration. REST, or Representational State Transfer, describes a series of architectural constraints that exemplify how the web's design emerged. Various concrete implementations of these ideas have been created throughout time, but it has been difficult to discuss the REST architectural style without blurring the lines between actual software and the architectural principles behind it. In Chapter 5 of his thesis, Roy Fielding documents how the World Wide Web is designed to be constrained by the REST series of ...

Rear Occupant Alert
Rear Occupant Alert (ROA) is motor vehicle manufacturer Hyundai Motor Company's automated vehicle alert system to detect the presence of an occupant in the rear seat of a passenger motor vehicle. The basic system uses door logic. If a rear door is opened and closed and the vehicle is turned on, a dashboard alert will activate when the vehicle is then turned off and the driver begins to exit the vehicle. An enhanced system, called Ultrasonic Rear Occupant Alert, also uses ultrasonic sensors. If the vehicle is locked and the ultrasonic sensors on the headlining detect movement in the rear seats, the system will flash the hazards lights and sound the horn for 25 seconds, and again if the system continue to detect movement, for up to eight times total. Other motor vehicle manufacturers' systems include General Motors's Rear Seat Reminder, Nissan's Rear Door Alert, and Subaru is the automaker, automobile manufacturing division of Japanese transportation conglomerate (company), con ...
