A rainbow is a meteorological phenomenon that is caused by reflection, refraction and dispersion of light in water droplets resulting in a spectrum of light appearing in the sky. It takes the form of a multicoloured arc. Rainbows caused by sunlight always appear in the section of sky directly opposite the sun.
Rainbows can be full circles; however, the average observer sees only an arc formed by illuminated droplets above the ground, and centred on a line from the sun to the observer's eye.
In a primary rainbow, the arc shows red on the outer part and violet on the inner side. This rainbow is caused by light being refracted when entering a droplet of water, then reflected inside on the back of the droplet and refracted again when leaving it.
In a double rainbow, a second arc is seen outside the primary arc, and has the order of its colours reversed, with red on the inner side of the arc.
A rainbow is not located at a specific distance from the observer, but comes from an optical illusion caused by any water droplets viewed from a certain angle relative to a light source. Thus, a rainbow is not an object and cannot be physically approached. Indeed, it is impossible for an observer to see a rainbow from water droplets at any angle other than the customary one of 42 degrees from the direction opposite the light source. Even if an observer sees another observer who seems "under" or "at the end of" a rainbow, the second observer will see a different rainbow—farther off—at the same angle as seen by the first observer.
Rainbow (simplified Chinese: 我心飞翔; traditional Chinese: 我心飛翔; pinyin: Wǒ Xīn Fēi Xiáng; literally: "my heart is flying") is a 2005 Chinese film written and directed by Gao Xiaosong, starring Chen Daoming.
Who You Are is the debut studio album by English singer-songwriter Jessie J, released on 28 February 2011. Due to high demand and interest from fans, the release advanced by a month from 28 March, as previously planned. Production for the album took place throughout 2010 and contributing producers included: Dr. Luke, Toby Gad and K-Gee.
Who You Are received generally mixed reviews from contemporary music critics. It débuted at number two on the UK Albums Chart selling 105,000 copies in its first week. The album débuted in the US at number 11 on the Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 34,000 copies. Two singles preceded the album: Jessie J's UK début single "Do It Like a Dude" and "Price Tag", featuring B.o.B which served as the US lead single. A third single, "Nobody's Perfect", became J's third consecutive top 10 hit in the UK. The fourth single from the album "Who's Laughing Now", released 21 August 2011, peaked at #16 on the UK Singles Chart. The title track, "Who You Are", was released on 13 November 2011 as the album's fifth UK single.
End or Ending may refer to:
Intrinsic value is an ethical and philosophic property. It is the ethical or philosophic value that an object has "in itself" or "for its own sake", as an intrinsic property. An object with intrinsic value may be regarded as an end or (in Kantian terminology) end-in-itself.
It is contrasted with instrumental value (or extrinsic value), the value of which depends on how much it generates intrinsic value. For an eudaemonist, happiness (human flourishing) has intrinsic value, while having a family may not have intrinsic value, yet be instrumental, since it generates happiness. Intrinsic value is a term employed in axiology, the study of quality or value.
Other names for intrinsic value are terminal value, essential value, principle value or ultimate importance. See also Robert S. Hartman's use of the term in the article Science of Value.
Intrinsic value is mainly used in ethics, but the concept is also used in philosophy, with terms that essentially may refer to the same concept.
In category theory, an end of a functor is a universal extranatural transformation from an object e of X to S.
More explicitly, this is a pair , where e is an object of X and
is an extranatural transformation such that for every extranatural transformation
there exists a unique morphism
of X with
for every object a of C.
By abuse of language the object e is often called the end of the functor S (forgetting ) and is written
Characterization as limit: If X is complete, the end can be described as the equaliser in the diagram
where the first morphism is induced by and the second morphism is induced by
.
The definition of the coend of a functor is the dual of the definition of an end.
Thus, a coend of S consists of a pair , where d is an object of X and
is an extranatural transformation, such that for every extranatural transformation
there exists a unique morphism
of X with
for every object a of C.
The coend d of the functor S is written
Characterization as colimit: Dually, if X is cocomplete, then the coend can be described as the coequalizer in the diagram
I wrote this song to keep from killing myself
It was all I had left when they said you've found
someone else
I know it's not cool to reveal I almost died
But I'm tired and I know you never liked me when I lied
If this is the end of my rainbow I need to know
I want to be free from every chain
If I'm going to die before I find my pot of gold
Come on keep on raining
I've been around the world I've seen a couple things
I recall words of wisdom dangling from their puppet
strings
If rain comes down the way they say it does in song
Then I was wrong and I've been waiting for the punch
line way too long
If this is the end of my rainbow I need to know
I want to be free from every chain
If I'm going to die before I find my pot of gold
Come on keep on raining
All that I need is a
river running over me
I want to be beautiful again
And in time I will shine
Underwater I will be divine
Come on keep on raining
Keep on raining
