  1. Apparent weight

    Apparent weight is a property in physics where the normal conceived weight of an object is changed, generally due to a force in the upward or downward direction. It is also known as the force the body exerts on whatever it rests on. ref cite book title Schaum s outline of theory and problems of applied physics last Beiser first Arthur authorlink coauthors year 2004 publisher McGraw Hill Professional location isbn page pages 59 60 url http books.google.com books?id soKguvJDgmsC&pg PA59&dq 22apparent weight 22&hl en&sa X&ei Po3zTqjjFcKniQKQwPjFDg&ved 0CEcQ6AEwBA v onepage&q 22apparent 20weight 22&f false accessdate December 22, 2011 ref This property is exhibited when an object is partially or completely immersed in a fluid , where there is an upthrust from the liquid that is working against the force of gravity . ref cite book title Physics for Flash Games, Animation, and Simulations last Ramtal first Dev authorlink coauthors Dobre, Adrian year 2011 publisher Apress location isbn page pages 196 197 url http books.google.com books?id F690GsJn3s8C&pg PA196&dq 22apparent weight 22&hl en&sa X&ei Po3zTqjjFcKniQKQwPjFDg&ved 0CDwQ6AEwAg v onepage&q 22apparent 20weight 22&f false accessdate December 22, 2011 ref An opposite example is when an object or person is riding in an elevator.

  1. Policyd-weight

    notability date October 2011 policyd weight is a mail filter for the Postfix software Postfix mail transfer agent MTA written in Perl , by Robert Felber. It allows postfix to evaluate mail envelope information and to score mail against several DNS based Blackhole Lists DNSBL before the mail is queued. The final score will determine whether a mail is rejected or accepted, in which case it is usually then subject to more resource intensive checks by a virus scanner and Spamming spam filter. Features policyd weight works as a policy daemon in Postfix software Postfix . It uses DNSBL , RHSBL , MX record MX and A record A Domain Name System DNS queries of the envelope sender and HELO Simple Mail Transfer Protocol SMTP arguments to evaluate the possibility of either Message forgery forgery or Spamming spam . Rejection happens based on an overall score, so a single blacklist entry may not cause the mail to be rejected. The score is determined by various checks and is not linear. The administrator is able to adjust scores for each check to meet her requirements. policyd weight caches the most frequent queries to minimize bandwidth and CPU usage. The benefit of this approach is that it is able to reject a delivery attempt before the body DATA of the mail has been received unlike most installations of SpamAssassin or amavisd , thus saving network bandwidth. Also it does not add delays like Greylisting and keeps out clients which fake HELO or sender information with a better accuracy and fewer ... drawing .
