Template Attribute Language
The Template Attribute Language (TAL) is a templating language used to generate dynamic HTML and XML pages. Its main goal is to simplify the collaboration between programmers and designers. This is achieved by embedding TAL statements inside valid HTML (or XML) tags which can then be worked on using common design tools. TAL was created for Zope but is used in other Python-based projects as well. TASFIA The following attributes are used, normally prefixed by "tal:": ; define : creates local variables, valid in the element bearing the attribute (including contained elements) ; condition : decides whether or not to render the tag (and all contained text) ; repeat : creates a loop variable and repeats the tag iterating a sequence, e.g. for creating a selection list or a table ; content : replaces the content of the tag ; replace : replaces the tag (and therefore is not usable together with content or attributes) ; attributes : replaces the given attributes (e. g. by using tal:att ...

Transalpine Pipeline
The Transalpine Pipeline (TAL) is a crude oil pipeline, which connects Italy, Austria, Germany and the Czech Republic. History The feasibility study of the pipeline was carried out by Bechtel in 1963. The pipeline was commissioned in 1967. This time, the construction cost around US$192 million. In 1972, the pipeline was the target of a Palestine terrorist attack. In May 2023 the Czech company MERO ČR announced a $73 million expansion to the Transalpine Pipeline that would double capacity to 8 million tons of oil to the Czech Republic, requiring 20 additional pumps and the upgrade of other equipment to pump the oil to 1,500m above sea level, over the alps, with completion scheduled for the end of 2024. The object being to make the Czech Republic independent of Russian oil. Route The pipeline starts from the marine terminal in Trieste. From Trieste, the pipeline runs through the Alps to Ingolstadt. From Ingolstadt one pipeline runs to Neustadt an der Donau and another pipel ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

TAL Effector
TAL (transcription activator-like) effectors (often referred to as TALEs, but not to be confused with the Homeobox, three amino acid loop extension homeobox class of proteins) are proteins secreted by some β-proteobacteria, β- and γ-proteobacteria. Most of these are Xanthomonads. Plant pathogenic ''Xanthomonas'' bacteria are especially known for TALEs, produced via their type three secretion system, type III secretion system. These proteins can bind Promoter (biology), promoter sequences in the host plant and activate the Gene expression, expression of plant genes that aid bacterial infection. The TALE domain responsible for binding to DNA is known to have 1.5 to 33.5 short sequences that are repeated multiple times (tandem repeats). Each of these repeats was found to be specific for a certain base pair of the DNA. These repeats also have repeat variable residues (RVD) that can detect specific DNA base pairs. They recognize plant DNA sequences through a central repeat domain cons ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
Transoceanic Abort Landing
Space Shuttle abort modes were procedures by which the nominal launch of the NASA Space Shuttle could be terminated. A pad abort occurred after ignition of the shuttle's main engines but prior to liftoff. An abort during ascent that would result in the orbiter returning to a runway or to an orbit lower than planned was called an "intact abort", while an abort in which the orbiter would be unable to reach a runway, or any abort involving the failure of more than one main engine, was called a "contingency abort". Crew bailout was still possible in some situations in which the orbiter could not land on a runway. Redundant set launch sequencer abort The three Space Shuttle main engines (SSMEs) were ignited roughly 6.6 seconds before liftoff, and computers monitored their performance as they increased thrust. If an anomaly was detected, the engines would be shut down automatically and the countdown terminated before ignition of the solid rocket boosters (SRBs) at T = 0 seconds. This ...
