	Horizontal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Horizontal is an orientation relating to, or in parallel with the horizon, and thus perpendicular to the vertical.
		In Cartesian coordinates of the form (x,y) where it is frequently called abscissa, the horizontal axis is conventionally used for the x coordinate, with positive numbers extending to the right side of the vertical axis.
		In perspective drawing, a set of parallel horizontal lines extending from the same vicinity must ultimately meet at a single point on the horizon known as the vanishing point.

		Horizontal is an orientation relating to, or in parallel with the horizon, and the opposite of vertical.
		In Cartesian coordinates of the form (x,y), the horizontal axis is conventionally used for the x coordinate, with positive numbers extending to the right side of the vertical axis.
		In perspective drawing, a set of parallel horizontal lines which are not parallel to the horizon will, if extended, meet at a single point on the horizon known as the vanishing point.

	Pan-Am Adventure: Chapingo, Mexico
		Horizontal resistance breeding can be of enormous value to the North American organic and sustainable agriculture community, and could prove to be the basis of the development of many, if not most organic crop lines in the future.
		Horizontal resistance is polygenic; many genes are involved in the resistance to the disease, thus the terms vertical/qualitative and horizontal/quantitative.
		Both vertical and horizontal disease (and insect) resistance are found as integrated mechanisms for defense within a plant population in the wild – they are strategies evolved by the plant species to stabilize its relationship with pathogens.

	Television and Video Resolution
		Advertised resolution is the horizontal resolution and it varies with the quality of the TV set.
		For NTSC interlaced video, the horizontal resolution is 80 (79) times the video circuitry bandwidth in megahertz, for example 3.0 MHz which is typical for a cheap TV allows about 240 lines of resolution.
		Its horizontal resolution is 735 to 1050 depending on who you are talking to.

	Glutamate modulation of GABA transport in retinal horizontal cells of the skate -- Kreitzer et al. 546 (3): 717 -- The ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Horizontal cells from these species have been used to characterize the ionic dependence of the transport current, its voltage dependence and its pharmacology (Malchow and Ripps, 1990; Cammack and Schwartz, 1993).
		However, it is also possible that the reason horizontal cells of the skate retina are so large is to minimize changes in intracellular ion concentrations during the course of their normal function.
		Reducing the uptake of GABA into the horizontal cells by this means clearly has the potential to leave more GABA in the synaptic cleft, thus potentially enhancing and prolonging the inhibitory effects of this compound in the outer plexiform layer.

	Horizontal Integration
		Horizontal growth can be achieved by internal expansion or by external expansion through mergers and acquisitions of firms offering similar products and services.
		Before expanding the scope of the firm through horizontal integration, management should be sure that the imagined benefits are real.
		Many blunders have been made by firms that broadened their horizontal scope to achieve synergies that did not exist, for example, computer hardware manufacturers who entered the software business on the premise that there were synergies between hardware and software.

	Sundials on the Internet - How to set up a horizontal sundial
		A horizontal sundial consists of the dial plate, marked off in hours, and the gnomon which sits on the noon line and projects out from the dial plate.
		In order to tell the correct local time the gnomon must be parallel with the earths axis, or, in other words, that it should point towards the celestial pole.
		Since horizontal sundials are often mass-produced, they have to be made for just one latitude.

	The Physics Classroom
		The mathematical equations discussed in Lesson 1 and the concept of a centripetal force requirement will be applied in order to analyze roller coasters and other amusement park rides, various athletic movements, and other real-world phenomenon.
		An analysis of the situation would reveal that there are three forces acting upon the object - the force of gravity (acting downwards), the normal force of the pavement (acting upwards), and the force of friction (acting inwards or rightwards).
		Since the force of friction is the only horizontal force, it must be equal to the net force acting upon the object.

	RFC 654 (rfc654) - Telnet output horizontal tab disposition option
		In the case where agreement has been reached and in the absence of further subnegotiations, the data receiver is assumed to be handling output horizontal tab character considerations.
		In the default absence of negotiations concerning which party, data sender or data receiver, is handling output horizontal tab character considerations, neither party is required to handle horizontal tab characters and neither party is prohibited from handling them; but it is appropriate if at least the data receiver handles horizontal tab character considerations, albeit primitively.
		Simulation is defined as the replacement of the horizontal tab character by enough spaces to move the printer head (or line-pointer) to the next horizontal tab stop.

		Horizontal prototypes demonstrate a broad spectrum of the product's features, but without extensive functionality behind each function.
		Horizontal prototypes are often used for user preference testing of user interfaces, when the actual working functions haven't been implemented yet.
		Often, horizontal prototypes can be low fidelity prototypes consisting of little more than drawings and lists on paper, to computer mockups that look exactly like a finished product, except that none of the functions work.

	Forensic-Evidence: Biological Evidence - H.G.N. (Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus)
		This article is a condensed version of a paper written in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the class of Scientific Evidence and Opinion Testimony during the Winter Semester of 1999 at the UMKC School of Law.
		Nystagmus is defined as "an involuntary rapid movement of the eyeball, which may be horizontal, vertical, rotatory, or mixed." Alcohol slows down the eyes' ability to rapidly track objects and causes to eyes to oscillate, or "jerk", before they normally would in a sober person.
		The maximum number of clues of horizontal gaze nystagmus suspect can exhibit is six, occurring if the suspect exhibited all three clues in each eye.
