  Circular Quay, New South Wales - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Circular Quay is a locality in the City of Sydney, Australia, between Bennelong Point and The Rocks.
Circular Quay is a focal point for many community celebrations, for both its historic significance as the birthplace of the Australian nation, and for its proximity to the Sydney icons of the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Circular Quay is also the home of Sydney's Museum of Contemporary Art and soon the City Library, in the historic Customs House.

 AllRefer.com - particle accelerator : Circular Accelerators (Physics) - Encyclopedia
In the cyclotron, which he invented, a cylindrical magnet bends the particle trajectories into a circular path whose radius depends on the mass of the particles, their velocity, and the strength of the magnetic field.
The particles are accelerated within a hollow, circular, metal box that is split in half to form two sections, each in the shape of the capital letter D.
A circular machine used to accelerate electrons is the betatron, invented by Donald Kerst in 1939.

Unlike a circular loop in which the radius is a constant value, the radius at the bottom of a clothoid loop is much larger than the radius at the top of the clothoid loop.
This change in speed as the rider moves through the loop is the second aspect of the acceleration which she experiences.
For a rider moving through a circular loop with a constant speed, the acceleration can be described as being centripetal or towards the center of the circle.

 FOSSILS AND ROCKS: CIRCULAR REASONING   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
"Circular reasoning" is a method of false logic, by which "this is used to prove that, and that is used to prove this." It is also called "reasoning in a circle." Over a hundred years ago it was described by the phrase, circulus in probando, which is Latin for "a circle in a proof."
There are several types of circular reasoning found in support of evolutionary theory.
This is where the suspicion of circular reasoning crept in, because it seemed to the layman that the time units were abstracted from the geological column, which has been put together from rock units."—*J.E.

The Public Administration Circular No. 49/89 dated 09/10/1989, should be amended to enable the retired Public Servants to obtain compensation for their damaged or destroyed properties during July/August 1987 violence and terrorists' violence thereafter, says Vanni Rehabilitation Minister Noordeen Mashoor, in a letter to Public Administration, Management and Reforms Minister Vajira Abeywardene.
Although these areas are now cleared, they are unable to apply for compensation as they have now become pensioners who are undergoing immense hardship and they are now living as displaced persons in relocated in villages or welfare centres or with friends or relations in various other areas, outside their region.
The Heads of Department interpret this circular as applicable only to the present public servants and not for the retired public servants whose properties were either damaged or destroyed during the period they were in the Public Service.

 Circular Dichroism
Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy measures differences in the absorption of left-handed polarized light versus right-handed polarized light which arise due to structural asymmetry.
The absence of regular structure results in zero CD intensity, while an ordered structure results in a spectrum which can contain both positive and negative signals.
The CD spectrum of a protein in the "near-uv" spectral region (250-350 nm) can be sensitive to certain aspects of tertiary structure.

 The Hindu Business Line : Service tax liability for distributors — AMFI seeks UTI help to study Finance Ministry ...
THE Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) has requested Unit Trust of India to examine the Finance Ministry's circular which says the services of distributors of mutual funds are basically in the nature of services of commission agents as defined under `Business Auxiliary Services' and are liable to service tax.
UTI, which incidentally has the highest number of intermediaries working for it, is expected to provide its views on whether the circular will have an implication for individual agents.
The circular, which has explained that their services are primarily in the nature of "services of commission agent", has already been criticised by a section of the intermediaries.

The circular provided that the tax authorities would not proceed against an FII for claiming tax on capital gains earned in India, if it produced a certificate by the Mauritius authorities that the company had a registered office in that country and was paying tax there.
Holding that the High Court had “erred on all counts in quashing the impugned circular,” the apex court said the allegations by those, who had challenged it on the ground that it had resulted in huge tax losses to the government, were only “supposed and perceived” by them.
Attorney General Soli Sorabjee, representing the government and GBI counsel P.H. Parikh had informed the court that after the circular was struck down by the High Court, the investment by Mauritius-based FIIs in India had fallen drastically to blow 10 per cent from 35 per cent.

 G5600 Circular Sawmill Alignment and Maintenance, MU Extension
When most people think of sawmills, they probably think of mills that use a large diameter (48- to 60-inch) circular saw as the headrig (the main saw in a mill) to saw logs into lumber.
Of the several types of headrigs used, this single circular saw, or circle saw, as it is commonly called, is one of the easiest to set up and maintain.
The relatively easy operation and maintenance are probably major reasons for the popularity of the circle saw among part-time sawmillers, such as farmers, who only saw when they need lumber and money.
