Original research date September 2007 No footnotes date October 2010 Checked baggage refers to items of luggage delivered to an airline or train for transportation in the hold of an aircraft or baggage car of a passenger train , which means it is inaccessible to the passenger during the flight ride. This baggage is limited by airlines with regard to size, weight, and number, usually dependent upon the fare paid, or class of ticket. Baggage exceeding the limits is regarded as excess baggage . In the US, checked baggage is no longer complimentary with most discount economy tickets, with the exception of Southwest Airlines and JetBlue Airways where the first bag is still complimentary as well as the second bag for Southwest. For other carriers, a passenger generally has to hold a full fare Economy ticket, travel in a premium cabin, or hold elite status on their airline to receive complimentary checked bags. TOC Passenger baggage reconciliation According to the rules of most air transportation authorities, such as the United States U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and European Union s Joint Aviation Authorities , should passengers flying internationally with checked baggage fail to arrive at the departure gate before the flight is closed, that person s baggage must be retrieved from the aircraft hold before the flight is permitted to take off. In the United States, this does not apply to domestic flights since all bags are required to go through explosive detection machines EDS prior to loading.

Refimprove date February 2009 A checked tone , commonly known by its Chinese calque entering tone Zh s t p r sh ng , lit. The tone of Chinese Character , is one of four tones four syllable types in the phonology in Middle Chinese which are commonly translated as tone . However, it is not a tone in the phonetic sense, but rather describes a syllable that ends in a stop consonant , such as p, t, k, or glottal stop . Note that separating the checked tone allows us to treat p , t , and k as allophone s of m , n , and ng respectively because they are in a complementary distribution in which stops appear only in the checked tone while nasals appear only in other tones. Due to the origin of tone in Chinese, the number of tones found in such syllables is smaller than the number of tones in other syllables, and in Chinese phonetics they have traditionally been counted separately. For instance, in Standard Cantonese Cantonese , there are 6 tones in syllables which do not end in stops, but only three in syllables which do therefore, although Cantonese only has 6 tones in the sense of 6 contrasting variations in pitch, it is often said to have 9. Final stops, and therefore the checked tones , have disappeared from most Mandarin Chinese Mandarin dialects a large dialect chain spoken in northern and southwestern China , but remain preserved in southeastern Chinese languages such as Yue Chinese Cantonese , Min Chinese Min , and Hakka Chinese Hakka .

Multiple issues refimprove May 2010 disputed May 2010 Image Aj check swing.jpg right thumb 300px A.J. Pierzynski of the Chicago White Sox checks his swing on a low pitch. A checked swing is a type of swing in baseball . A checked swing occurs when a batter starts to swing for the ball, but stops the swing in order to allow the ball to pass without hitting it. Initially, the home plate umpire must determine If a swing was checked or not checked. An appeal can be made by the catcher or his manager, and the home plate umpire can then make a request to either the 1st or 3rd base Umpire baseball umpire to make the call as to whether or not the swing was indeed checked. The 1st base umpire makes the call for right handed batters, and the 3rd base umpire for left handed batters. To indicate a checked swing, the umpire will make a safe gesture with his hands to indicate a full swing, he will clench his fist as if to signal out . If a ball that passes the batter is in the strike zone, it is a strike even if a swing is checked. If a ball is hit during a checked swing, it is in play as long as it is not ruled a foul ball. The Major League Baseball rulebook doesn t contain an official definition for a checked swing it is the decision of the umpire presiding. Generally, factors such as whether the bat passes the front of the plate or the batter pulls his wrists back are considered in the ruling. Some umpires prefer to use the breaking of the wrists as the method to decide a checked swing. Under Official Playing Rule 3.13, the home team manager is responsible for announcing the Ground Rules, none of which may conflict with Official Baseball Rules. However, Major League Baseball is working with a group of umpires to standardize Ground Rules, to make them easier for teams and umpires. ref name Umpires cite web last Leppard first Tom title Umpires url http mlb.mlb.com mlb official info umpires feature.jsp?feature qa4 accessdate 22 September 2011 ref A checked swing sometimes results ... more details
A scale of vowels is an arrangement of vowel s in order of perceived pitch . A scale used for poetry in American English lists the vowels by the frequency of the second formant the higher of the two overtone s that define a vowel sound . Starting with the highest, class IPA wikitable Help IPA for English vowel example i key e cane a kite kit ken cat cur cut cot a cow coy caught, core could o coat u cool, cute In technical terms, this listing goes from front vowel s to back vowel s. It is by no means precise enough for phonology . For one thing, the sounds with IPA or IPA as the second symbol are diphthong s, during which the formants change. Also, many American accents and practically all from other countries will require different lists. Nonetheless this scale has been used in poetry. For instance, one can identify lines that generally go upward&mdash O love, be fed with apples while you may Robert Graves or downward&mdash When lilacs last in the dooryard bloom d Walt Whitman A pendeka from the Greek language Greek for fifteen is a poem containing each of the above vowels once. The following example, which goes up the scale, is intended strictly as a mnemonic. Mood no good, brought voice Down, not up, perhaps Ends with&mdash Hi, baby Not to be confused with The high and low frequency vowels described here are not the close vowel high vowels and open vowel low vowels of linguistics .
