  C-4 (explosive) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-12)
C-4 or Composition C-4 is a common variety of military plastic explosive.
C-4 is part of a group of explosives along with C, C2 and C3, each containing different amounts of RDX.
The C is sometimes said to stand for composition and the name is an abbreviation of Composition 4.

 ENGR 321: Homework Set 6
Be sure to describe the phases present, their approximate compositions and the relative amounts of each, and the probable microstructure.
Use the lever rule at a temperature of about T = 728 °C. We know the composition of the GAMMA phase at this temperature (0.76wt%C) and the composition of the ALPHA-Fe is 0.022wt%C. These are the two ends of the lever.
Dropping the temperature to 400 °C effectively resets the clock on the transformation of the remaining austenite (the pearlite does not change, since it is already the equilibrium phases).

 Geological Society of America - GSA Today - v. 10, no. 5, May 2000   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-12)
C composition of surface seawater on time scales of >105 yr primarily arises from changes in the long-term throughput of carbon in the ocean and the isotopic fractionation associated with partitioning of carbon into reduced and oxidized reservoirs (Kump, 1991; Kump and Arthur, 1999).
C records for a number of important intervals of pre-Cretaceous time are of relatively low resolution, thus compromising their utility as paleoenvironmental proxies.
Evidence of prolonged environmental stress during the negative C isotope excursion is indicated by the lack of bioturbation in shales and the occurrence of carbonate shell beds that are interpreted to record episodic deposition of trilobite death assemblages (L. and M. McCollum, personal commun., 2000).

 Re-Writing in Advanced Composition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-12)
In both my C 201 and C 301 courses, after the students wrote some half-dozen papers I asked them to select one of these papers for a thorough rewriting, and to include a report of what they changed and why.
The C 301 students, by contrast, while they had more difficulty with revision of sentence structure than with other aspects of rewriting, on occasion were able to revise by using subordination, in version, and parallelism to good effect, and could “uncombine” ungainly sentences.
Observing, then, three levels of student work, that done in freshman composition, composition C 201, and composition C 301, I was able to think of a continuum of relatively inexperienced to relatively advanced students and reach four pedagogical conclusions regarding rewriting.

 C-4
C-4 is an development of a WW II material that mixed RDX with mineral oil and lecithin to achieve roughly the characteristics of plastic explosive but with certain disadvantages.
C-4 is part of a group of explosives along with C, C-2 and C-3, each containing different amounts of RDX developed in the 1960s.
However, composition is used for any castable explosive and composition A and composition B are also known variants.

 MIME Composition
With MIME composition enabled, VM will allow you to add file attachments to your composition and will analyze your message when you send it and MIME encode it as necessary.
VM will ask you for the name of the file, its type, a brief description and its character set if it is a text attachment.
By default, when you type text into a composition buffer VM assumes that if all the character codes are less than 128, you are using the US-ASCII character set and that is the character set declared in the encoding of the message when it is sent.

 C Complex
Although “the bioavailability of vitamin C in humans and...our current understanding of that process and factors that influence it are incomplete” [9], it appears that slower disintegration times improve the bioavailability of vitamin C [10] (Food C Complex has slower disintegration times).
Some of the many functions that vitamin C is involved in include collagen formation, carnitine biosynthesis, neurotransmitter synthesis, enhancement of iron absorption, immunocompetence, antioxidant defense, possible anticarcenogenic effects, protection of folate and vitamin E from oxidation, and cholesterol catabolism [1].
Food C Complex bioflavonoids contain as many as sixteen truly organic bioflavonoids: flavanone glycosides, naringin, neorioctrin, neohesperidin, hesperiden, flavone glycosides, rhoifolin, luteolin, neodiosnin, flavon aglycones, tetra-o-methylisoscutellaren, sinensetin, isosinensetin, tangeritin, nobiletin, 5-0-desmethylnobiletin--other bioflavonoid-containing formulas typically are less complete.

 Ragtime Composition Notes: C
This piece, which dates from 1985, began as a sort of revisitation or inspired reworking of an earlier composition.
As the opening phrases arrived in the author's consciousness, they were found to be altered from the original in such a way as to seem haunted, in effect, transformed by some mysterious residue left from the passage of time.
In addition, his classical training and extensive study of composition endow his pieces with rich counterpoint, clarity of melodic movement and a harmonic sense like no other.
