  House system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The house system is a traditional feature of British, Australian, Canadian, Hong Kong, Indian and Singaporean schools, similar to the collegiate system of a university.
Historically it was associated with established public schools, where a 'house' refers to a boarding house or dormitory of a boarding school.
One notable feature of the house system is the nomination and election, or appointment, of house captains for the junior and senior school, whose job it is to rally fellow house-members and to pick individuals for team events.

 Astrology House Systems - © Dr Shepherd Simpson
This system is also referred to as the "Axial Rotation System," a term which is somewhat misleading, as no rotation is involved, but derives from the use of the North and South Celestial poles for the construction of the great circles.
The tangents of the polar height of the 11th house is the tangents of the geo.
This constant is then added to the Midheaven to yield the cusp of the 11th house, to the 11th to yield the cusp of the 12th, and to the 12th to confirm the Ascendant degree.

The houses are divisions of the sky (including that part of it hidden beneath the ground) and are usually numbered from the position of the eastern horizon at the time of the observation.
In the whole sign house system, the houses are also 30° each, but instead of beginning at the ascendant, the first house begins at zero degrees of the zodiac sign in which the ascendant falls.
This is the system used in Jyotish (vedic astrology), and Hellenistic astrology.

 Whole House Water Systems
The portion of the "whole house" water system that treats the drinking water is usually an under sink reverse osmosis system, producing a few gallons of filtered water to a separate faucet on the kitchen sink as well as to the refrigerator if that device dispenses cold water and/or ice cubes.
In short, reverse osmosis is a "water filtration" system which removes taste, odor and a portion of the dissolved minerals present in the incoming water.
At the end of a few months, with a typical reverse osmosis system you are drinking what essentially is tap water, mixed with a huge dose of sodium from the water softener/conditioner and of course any bacteria entering your home water plumbing as well as bacteria which may grow internal to the reverse osmosis system.

WASHINGTON -- The House ethics system has almost stopped functioning because public interest groups no longer can file complaints and party leaders have an informal agreement not to trigger new investigations, several organizations said yesterday.
Judicial Watch, a conservative organization joined mostly by liberal groups at a news conference, urged reversal of the prohibition against nongovernment organizations and an end to what the groups called a sweetheart pact to avoid investigations.
Smith has declined to comment about the alleged attempt to influence his Medicare vote, although he told a radio station last year that he was promised $100,000 for his son's campaign.

 House Cusps and Systems
The Placidus system is the most popular one in the western world, its success based as much on widespread publication and distribution of its tables as its efficacy.
In fact, most systems use the Midheaven as the cusp of the 10th house and the Ascendant as the cusp of the 1st.
But, since houses are measured in equal 30 degree arcs from the Ascendant, the Midheaven is excluded from the house building equation.

Because the White House was operating in a state of controlled chaos in those early days, the public comment lines were deserted.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House ethics system has almost stopped functioning because public interest groups can no longer file complaints and party leaders have an informal agreement not to trigger new investigations, several organizations contended Tuesday.
Despite the comments on the Smith case, House ethics committee chairman Joel Hefley, R-Colo., and ranking Democrat Alan Mollohan of West Virginia announced last month that they had initiated in December "informal fact-finding." They have not commented since.
Smith has refused to comment about the alleged attempt to influence his Medicare vote, although he initially told a radio station last year that he was promised $100,000 for his son's campaign.

 Ford Develops AWD System In-House
Kurrle says there are several reasons why Ford decided to develop an AWD system in-house, instead of using the Haldex system employed in the bigger Ford Five Hundred and Mercury Montego sedans and Ford Freestyle CUV.
The Ford AWD system is similar to that used on the Ford Escape CUV, he says, adding that Ford developed the system independently of its subsidiaries, including Mazda Motor Corp., which engineered its own system.
Being able to build the system in great quantities is essential to meeting earlier announced plans to sell 500,000 vehicles with fulltime AWD systems annually in the U.S. by 2007.
