  • Household models in Anglophone culture include the single family and varieties of blended families, shared housing, and group homes for people with support needs.

• Shoin Rooms

  • In a shoin-zukuri building, the shoin is the room dedicated to the reception of guests.

  • Fusuma, or sliding doors, were also becoming a popular means to divide rooms.
  • Discuss the changes in Japanese shoin rooms during the Momoyama Period.

• Changes in Energy

  • The difference in temperature between a warm room (the surroundings) and a cold glass of ice and water (the system and not part of the room) begins to equalize.
  • Over time, the temperature of the glass and its contents and the temperature of the room become equal.
  • The entropy of the room decreases as some of its energy is dispersed to the ice and water.
  • The second law of thermodynamics shows that in an isolated system internal portions at different temperatures will tend to adjust to a single uniform temperature and thus produce equilibrium.
  • Ice melting in a warm room is a common example of increasing entropy.

• Etruscan Tombs

  • Each tumulus was the burial site for a single family, and one to four underground tombs were cut into the round tumulus.
  • The tombs were carved with a long, narrow entranceway known as a dromos, which opened into a single or multi-room chamber.
  • The Tomb of the Leopards (early fifth century BCE), which consists of a single room, is one of the best known tombs of Tarquinia.
  • The Tomb of Hunting and Fishing consists of two rooms.
  • Two trees frame the doorway into the second room.

• Mycenaean Architecture

  • Mycenaean culture can be summarized by its architecture, whose remains demonstrate the Mycenaeans' war-like culture and the dominance of citadel sites ruled by a single ruler.
  • Inside the walls are various rooms for administration and storage along with palace quarters, living spaces, and temples.
  • The Lion Gate received its name from its decorated relieving triangle of lions one either side of a single column.
  • This composition of lions or another feline animal flanking a single object is known as a heraldic composition.
  • The central megaron is easy to locate, and it is surrounded by various palatial and administrative rooms.

• Physical Context

  • The physical context for the co-located audience is the setting or room where you speak.
  • Non-portable are used for large rooms or small dedicated conferencing rooms.
  • They have all required components packaged into a single equipment console.
  • Portable systems are available for use with small audiences in small meeting rooms and for video seminars.

• Capacity decisions

  • A large single airplane like the Super Jumbo may not be the right capacity decision for an airline that serves numerous medium sized cities.
  • Similarly, hotels must make sure that they have enough employees to register arriving guests, to clean hotel rooms, and to provide food and beverages to customers.

• The Julio-Claudians

  • Because the idea of a single ruler or monarch was so despised by the Romans, Augustus had to carefully consolidate power under his control.
  • Nero's complex included a private lake, landscaped gardens and porticos, a colossal golden statue of himself, and rooms for entertaining that were lavishly decorated with mosaics, frescos, and gold leaf.
  • The octagonal room stands between multiple rooms, possibly for dining, and is delineated by eight piers that support a domed roof with an oculus that lit not only the hall but also the surrounding rooms.

• Introduction to IRC / Real-Time Chat Systems

  • Many projects offer real-time chat rooms using Internet Relay Chat (IRC), forums where users and developers can ask each other questions and get instant responses.
  • (An IRC channel is a single "chat room" — a shared space in which people can "talk" to each other using text.
  • To speak to a particular person in an IRC channel, it is standard to address them by their username (nickname or nick), so they can pick out your inquiry from the other conversation in the room; see rants.org/2013/01/09/the-irc-curmudgeon for more on this practice. ) Freenode gives you the control you need to administer your project's IRC channels, while sparing you the not-insignificant trouble of maintaining an IRC server yourself.
  • But it becomes problematic when someone has to provide a large quantity of information at once, such as a large error message or a transcript from a debugging session, because pasting too many lines of output into the room will disrupt other conversations.
