![]() The battle was a Confederate victory and was followed by a disorganized post-battle retreat of the Union forces. Each side had about 18,000 poorly trained and poorly led troops. The Union Army was slow in positioning themselves, allowing Confederate reinforcements time to arrive by rail. The battle was fought on July 21, 1861, in Prince William County, Virginia, just north of the city of Manassas and about thirty miles west-southwest of Washington, D.C. ![]() It is more probable that “skedaddle” is rooted in the Irish word “sgedadol,” meaning “scattered,” or the Scots word “”skiddle,” meaning “to spill or scatter.” Given the Scots-Irish heritage of many of the states central to the Civil War, these both seem like reasonable bets to me.The First Battle of Bull Run, called the Battle of First Manassas by Confederate forces, was the first major battle of the American Civil War. There are theories that attempt to trace “skedaddle” to various Swedish or Danish words but fail on lack of evidence. The relatively sudden appearance of “skedaddle” as a fully-formed word, with no known ancestors in English, tends to argue for its importation from another language. There are a number of theories about the origin of “skedaddle,” but no definite answer to the puzzle. In military use there were definite overtones of cowardice under fire in “skedaddle,” but as the word quickly percolated into civilian usage, it came to mean simply “to leave quickly” or “to run away.” “Skedaddle” first appeared in written accounts of battles in that war, used to mean “to retreat quickly to flee” (“As soon as the rebs saw our red breeches … coming through the woods they skedaddled,” 1862). There’s also the fact that the word in question is actually spelled “skedaddle,” and its spelling has been fairly constant since it came into use during the American Civil War. Too many people would have to simultaneously adopt that usage for it to make any sense to anyone. It’s just not the way the language works. But while some English words have been formed by combining other words (“motel” from “motor hotel,” for instance), I can’t think of an instance of an entire phrase (such as “Let’s get out of here”) being slurred into a single word. While you were reading that paragraph, I was softly repeating “scidattle” over and over to myself, and after awhile it did start to sound a bit like “let’s get out of here,” especially if you say it very quickly with a Brooklyn accent. But just last week I watched Pokie attack a tree that hadn’t moved in at least ten years and didn’t seem to be menacing anyone, so we may have to rethink that bargain. ![]() We originally let these two freeloaders, Brownie and Pokie, live here on the assumption that they would provide some basic security. By the way, “you guys” really doesn’t apply in this case, because it’s just me and a bunch of illiterate cats here, plus two dogs who are of no use at all unless your heart’s desire is to find the nearest dead possum. If my hypothesis is incorrect, can you guys find out where “scidattle” came from? Boy, I sure hope so. Dear Word Detective: I’m wondering if the slang word “scidattle,” as is “let’s scidattle” or “time to scidattle,” may originate from a shortened version of “let’s get out of here,” which, when said quickly, has a similar sound and meaning. ![]()

Both the Babylonian number system and ours rely on position to give value. Some clay tablets contain mathematical lists and. Old Babylonian mathematics (20001600 BC) Most clay tablets that describe Babylonian mathematics belong to the Old Babylonian, which is why the mathematics of Mesopotamia is commonly known as Babylonian mathematics. The Calculator above shows that for any given n there are many ways to choose the whole numbers, x, y and z for the three unit fraction denominators. This is why the calculator above uses an additive system for input. The Babylonian system uses base-60, meaning that instead of being decimal, its sexagesimal. The earliest traces of the Babylonian numerals also date back to this period. ![]() Though large and small numbers could be represented, not having a symbol for zero left the number system with much ambiguity without context. Unlike our number system, the Babylonians represented numbers in base 60, so every number increases its value by a factor of 60 as you move left. For example, to enter overlines C 100,000. A line over a Roman numeral means it is multiplied by 1,000. Any number necessarily consists of a central vertical bar, if nothing else is written, then it takes the value 0, otherwise, the quadrant at the top right corresponds to the units, the quadrant at the top left for the tens, the quadrant at. I introduce expanded form and review exponents, and tal. The numeral system of Cistercian monks uses a quadrant (in 4 parts) to represent numbers from 0 to 9999. The sum of the second group is multiplied by 60. From right to left, the sum of the first group of numerals is multiplied by 1. This online unit converter allows quick and accurate conversion between many units of measure, from one system to another. Use a leading underline character to input Roman numerals with an overline. In this video, I explain how to convert numerals between our number system and the Babylonian System. In a Babylonian numeral, a gap is left between the characters to distinguish between the various place values. The Babylonians used a positional number system, which allowed them to represent nearly any number, no matter how large or small. To convert Roman numerals greater than 3,999 use the table below for converter inputs. Enter the next number into the second box just as you did the first.Your number is displayed in base 60, just as the Babylonians wrote their numbers.

Ceylon Ebony (Diospyros ebenum) Image Credit: Philg88 via Creative Commons It is understandably a difficult wood to work with. We also use Gabon ebony for making high-quality cabinets, musical instruments, particularly fretboards, and ornamental objects. However, Gabon ebony is prohibitively expensive and scarce. The wood is resistant to termites and other insects, and it has high dimensional stability and makes good furniture thanks to its high durability. It is so dark that you cannot distinguish any wood grain. The heartwood of Gabon ebony is jet black, and you will not see much color variation in the wood grain.

Darker wood tends to be popular for making indoor furniture and similar indoor applications. Many species of dark wood are readily available and affordable, and others are rare and expensive. But you can also get some reasonably priced darker types of wood. Many darker kinds of wood are expensive, like ebony, walnut, and some other species. However, you might feel that darker woods will be more expensive, not necessarily so. The darkest-colored types of wood have always held a fascination for woodworkers and end-users alike. One of the most popular characterizations is by its color. The color of wood is one of the prime attractions of using wood, apart from the fascinating wood grain patterns you can see in various types of wood. We identify wood in many ways through features like hardness, wood grain pattern, price and availability, durability, and color. ![]() ![]() The small triangular handles at the top and bottom of the stair are used to curve the stair treads.The handles located in the middle of the stair allow you to control the beginning point of the flare. ![]() The small triangular handles along the edges of the staircase are to adjust the flare radius.The handles that display at each corner are to Flare the treads.
