Unreferenced date October 2006 Other uses of figure Figure disambiguation A floating block in writing and publishing is any graphic, text, table, or other representation that is unaligned from the main flow of text. Use of floating blocks to present pictures and table information table s is a typical feature of academic writing and technical writing , including scientific and articles and books. Floating blocks are normally labeled with a caption or title that describes its contents and a number that is used to refer to the figure from the main text. A common system divides floating block into two separately numbered series, labeled figure for pictures, diagrams, Plot graphics plots , etc. and table . Floating blocks are said to be floating because they are not fixed in position on the page at the place, but rather drift to the side of the page. An alternative name for figure is image or graphic . By placing pictures or other large items on the sides of pages rather than embedding them in the middle of the main flow of text, typesetting is more flexible and interruption to the flow of the narrative is avoided. For example, an article on geography might have Figure 1 Map of the world , Figure 2 Map of Europe , Table 1 Population of continents , Table 2 Population of European countries , and so on. Some books will have a table of figures in addition to the table of contents that lists centrally all the figures appearing in the work. Other kinds of floating blocks may be differentiated as well, for example Sidebar For digressions from the main narrative. For example, a technical manual on usage of a product might include examples of how various people have employed the product in their work in sidebars. Also called an intermezzo .

A floating hinge is a hinge that, while able to behave as a normal hinge, enables one of the objects to move away from the other hence float. In effect the hinge allows for two parallel axes of rotation, one for each object joined by the hinge, and each axis can be moved relative to the position of the other. Floating hinges are used in flatbed scanner s designed to scan thick objects such as books. A sheet of paper is placed on the glass, and the cover is lowered over it the glass, the paper, and the sheet are very close together. If a thick book is placed on the glass an ordinary hinge would leave the cover at an angle to the glass. A floating hinge raises the hinged edge of the cover to the level of the book, so that the cover remains parallel to the glass, but raised above it. Floating hinges are also used in two plate electric grill cooking cooking grills , as they allow for even heating of both sides of a thick piece of food without crushing it.

When an authorized user wishes to run the application they request a license from a central license server. If a license is available the license server allows the application to run. When they finish using the application, or when the allowed license period expires, the license is reclaimed by the license server and made available to other authorized users. The license server can manage licenses over a local area network , an intranet or virtual private network , or the Internet .

Mutilated currency is a term used by the United States Bureau of Engraving and Printing BEP to describe currency which is damaged to the point where it is difficult to determine the value of the currency, or where it is not clear that at least half of the note is present. Common causes of damage are fire, water, chemicals, explosives, animals or damage from extended burying of the currency. Banknotes which are merely very dirty, or very worn out, but where the value is clear, are not considered mutilated and can be traded in at any bank from where they will eventually be processed out of circulation. In general, mutilated currency of US dollars can be sent to the BEP for evaluation, and if it is determined that at least half of the currency is present, or there is clear enough evidence that whatever parts are missing are destroyed, the owner of the mutilated currency can have the money value of the mutilated currency refunded to them. Annually, this amounts to about 30,000 claims and over 30 million in refunds.
