	Hook turn - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		A manoeuvre equivalent to the hook turn is often done by cyclists to avoid entering the fast lane to turn; this may be required in some places.
		Primarily, the hook turn allows both the clear passage of trams (which are common in Melbourne) and alleviates right-turning drivers from having to wait or check that there are no trams crossing the driver's path.
		Presently, hook turn intersections are confined to Melbourne's central business district and its immediate surrounds; this may change in the near future as the government looks at ways to give trams priority at a greater number of intersections.

		The hook turn is a driving manoeuvre that is common in the inner city area of Melbourne, Australia.
		A maneuver equivalent to the hook turn is often done by cyclists to avoid entering the fast lane to turn; this may be required in some places.
		Drivers wishing to turn left can still do so, and traffic which do not wish to turn can continue onward without obstruction or waiting for drivers who are waiting for the traffic travelling in the opposite direction to clear.

		Hook turns are relatively rare, but can be used to improve the flow of through-traffic or to keep the middle of the road free for trams or other special uses.
		In northeastern Illinois, the hook turn lanes are separated from the through traffic by a concrete median, and have their own separate cycle of the traffic lights.
		In Melbourne, the hook turn allows both the clear passage of trams (which are common in Melbourne) and prevents right-turning drivers from having to wait or check that there are no trams crossing the driver's path.

	Info: (lispref) Hooks
		Hooks ===== A "hook" is a variable where you can store a function or functions to be called on a particular occasion by an existing program.
		The hook functions may be any of the valid kinds of functions that `funcall' accepts (What Is a Function).
		Any hook that is abnormal is abnormal because a normal hook won't do the job; either the functions are called with arguments, or their values are meaningful.

	Dropzone.com Skydive Forums: Community: The Bonfire: I can't hook turn
		IMO, the biggest problem with the 'No Hook Turns' policy is, that while it'll stop the guy with 1000's of jumps from pounding in on his Extreme-VX 69 (primarily because he'll go find another dropzone), a lot of the people who actually get hurt doing hook turns are low timers who just made a mistake.
		Most of these people don't even realize they're doing a low hook turn until the people are standing over them asking if they're ok. What is needed is not more policies on what you're not allowed to do, but better educated jumpers.
		It is considered as any turn exceeding 90 degrees or any turn in which the centrifugal force swings you out at more than a 45 degree angle from below the canopy.

		Hook Turn Physics by Bryan Burke Beginning with the first jump course, every skydiver is drilled on the concept that a turn close to the ground is one of the leading causes of injury in our sport.
		In summary, while both front riser turns and toggle turns create an increased descent rate and corresponding increase in speed, for intentional maneuvers a front riser turn is usually more desirable in that it offers more escapes in the event of a lapse of judgment or a sudden change in the environment.
		An additional consideration is that a turn over 90 degrees does not confer significant increases in speed but greatly increases the potential for mistakes, not just on the part of the person doing the hook turn.

		With rare exceptions, hooks in Emacs are empty when Emacs starts up, so the only hook functions in any given hook are the ones you explicitly put there as customization.
		What makes these hooks abnormal is that there is something peculiar about the way its functions are called--perhaps they are given arguments, or perhaps the values they return are used in some way.
		For example, here's how to set up a hook to turn on Auto Fill mode when entering Text mode and other modes based on Text mode: (add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill) The next example shows how to use a hook to customize the indentation of C code.

		If the hook variable's name does not end with `-hook', that indicates it is probably an abnormal hook; you should look at its documentation to see how to use the hook properly.
		If the variable's name ends in `-functions' or `-hooks', then the value is a list of functions, but it is abnormal in that either these functions are called with arguments or their values are used in some way.
		Here's an expression that uses a mode hook to turn on Auto Fill mode when in Lisp Interaction mode: (add-hook 'lisp-interaction-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill) The next example shows how to use a hook to customize the way Emacs formats C code.
