Other uses Strip disambiguation Strip Stripping is the act of removing the protective polymer coating around optical fiber in preparation for fusion splicing . The splicing process begins by preparing both fiber ends for fusion, which requires that all protective coating is removed or stripped from the ends of each fiber. Fiber optical stripping is usually carried out by a special stripping and preparation unit that uses hot sulphuric acid or a controlled flow of hot air to remove the coating . There are also mechanical tools used for stripping fiber which are similar to copper wire strippers. Fiber optical stripping and preparation equipment used in fusion splicing is commercially available through a small number of specialized companies, which usually also designs machines used for recoating fiber optical recoating .

In mining , stripping ratio or strip ratio refers to the ratio of the volume of overburden or waste material required to be handled in order to extract some volume of ore. For example, a 3 1 stripping ratio means that mining one cubic meter of ore will require mining three cubic meters of waste rock. ref name SME cite book title SME Mining Engineering Handbook last Hartman first Howard page 1277 publisher Society of Mining Engineering url http books.google.com books?id DsSmPKEOWDcC&pg PA1277&dq isbn 0873351002 ref Stripping ratios are typically reduced to show the volume of waste removal required to extract one unit volume of ore, for example, 2 1 as opposed to 4 2. When compared to surface mining, which requires overburden removal prior to ore extraction, underground mining operations tend to have lower stripping ratios due to increased selectivity. All other factors being equal, mining at a higher stripping ratio is less profitable than mining at a lower stripping ratio because more waste must be moved at a cost per unit volume for an equivalent volume of revenue generating ore. If the ratio is too high given a particular price of ore and associated cost of mining then it may not be economical to conduct mining.

Unreferenced date January 2010 Asset stripping involves selling the asset s of a business individually at a profit. The term is generally used in a pejorative sense as such activity is not considered productive to the economy. Asset stripping is considered to be a problem in economies such as Russia or China that are making a transition to the market. In these situations, managers of a state owned company have been known to sell the assets which they control, leaving behind nothing but debts to the state. A fictional example of asset stripping can be found in the 1987 film Wall Street 1987 film Wall Street .

It is a chemical engineering technology used for the purification of groundwaters and wastewaters containing volatile compounds. Volatile compounds have relatively high vapor pressure and low aqueous solubility characterized by the compound s dimensionless Henry s law coefficient, which is the ratio of the concentration in air that is in equilibrium with its concentration in water. Pollutants with relatively high Henry s Law coefficients can be economically stripped from water. These include BTEX compounds benzene , toluene , ethylbenzene , and xylene found in gasoline, and solvents including trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene . Ammonia can also be ammonia stripping stripped from wastewaters often requiring pH adjustment prior to stripping . Since Henry s law coefficient increases with temperature, stripping is easier at warmer temperatures. Air strippers Although any device that promotes contact between air and water strips some volatile compounds, air strippers are usually packed towers or Theoretical tray tray towers operated with countercurrent flow of water and air. Packed towers, such as shown in Figure 1, usually use engineered or random plastic packings.

Dividend stripping is the purchase of shares just before a dividend is paid, and the sale of those shares after that payment, i.e. when they go ex dividend . This may be done either by an ordinary investor as an investment strategy, or by a company s owners or associates as a tax avoidance strategy. Investors For an investor dividend stripping provides dividend income , and a capital loss when the shares fall in value in normal circumstances on going ex dividend . This may be profitable if the income is greater than the loss, or if the tax treatment of the two gives an advantage. Different tax circumstances of different investors is a factor. A tax advantage available to everyone would be expected to show up in the ex dividend price fall. But an advantage available only to a limited set of investors might not.

Summary of the book s argument While its title suggests a focus on iconoclasm, its concerns are broader, dealing with the shift in religious sensibilities in English society between 1400 and 1580. In particular, the book is concerned with establishing, in intricate detail, the religious beliefs and practices of English society in the century or so preceding the reign of Henry VIII of England Henry VIII . The main thesis of Duffy s book is that the Roman Catholic faith was in rude and lively health prior to the English Reformation . Duffy s argument was written as a counterpoint to the prevailing historical belief that the Roman Catholic faith in England was a decaying force, theologically spent and unable to provide sufficient spiritual sustenance for the population at large.

Courts of general jurisdiction in the United States All federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction. Many U.S. State s have divided their courts between criminal and civil, with some making further divisions, assigning probate, family law, and juvenile cases, for example, to specialized courts. General jurisdiction and judicial immunity One significant effect of the classification of a court is the liability that a judge from that court might face for stepping beyond the bounds of that court. Judges are able to claim judicial immunity for acts that are not completely beyond their jurisdiction. For example, if a probate judge were to sentence a person to jail, that judge would not have immunity and could be sued because a probate judge has no jurisdiction to effect a criminal sentence. However, a judge in a court of general jurisdiction who happened to be overseeing a probate case would be immune from suit for sending a party to jail, because handing down a criminal sentence is not completely beyond the jurisdiction of such a judge. In the United States, this principle was established by the United States Supreme Court Supreme Court in Stump v. Sparkman , Case citation 435 U.S. 349 1978 .
