  Light Cycle Controlled Feeding and Weight Changes in Pigeons
The light and food cycle frames present data in terms of hours before the lights were turned off or food was removed; therefore, a point on the abscissa does not necessarily indicate the same absolute time for each of the functions.
It did this by documenting a characteristic pattern of feeding under a wide variety of circadian light cycles; by showing that the feeding pattern was abolished with constant light; and, by demonstrating that the feeding pattern could not be established by periodic removal of food under constant light.
Similar patterns occurred with light cycles as short as 9:15 and as long as 21:3, even though other cyclic factors, such as temperature or lab activity, were not correlated with specific portions of the various light cycles.

 CREATIVE TIME
Light Cycle, by Chinese artist, Cai Guo-Qiang, was an explosion event that illuminated Central Park in aerial drawings of light and fire to celebrate the park’s splendor and vitality on its 150th Anniversary.
Light Cycle began with Signal Towers, a series of five pillars of fire in a reference to ancient methods of communication.
Light Cycle consisted of a series of halos that were drawn over the five aforementioned firing locations.

 Light Cycle Controlled Weight Changes in Pigeons
During a dark cycle pigeons roost and tend to be inactive.
It could therefore be argued that the pre-dark cycle eating was controlled by a mechanism similar to facilitation during a signal which precedes a decrease in reinforcement frequency (Pliskoff, 1961; Gibson and Milby, 1970).
The accentuated weight gain occurred when there was a light and dark period but did not occur in continuous illumination, even though the available external stimuli at the onset of feeding and even the immediately preceding 12 hrs were identical for both conditions.

 Importance of Light
Full-spectrum light may be needed for the maintenance of health in ways still unknown, add, finally, light is important for the psychological well being of animals.
Obviously, light cycling is most important in birds from northern or temperate climates where changes in the light cycle are the greatest.
Once incandescent manufacturers figured out that people were being told to look for 'full spectrum' lighting, they started to market their wide spectrum (producing some, but not all of the visible wavelengths and no ultraviolet wavelengths) lights with 'full spectrum' in the ads and on packaging.

 Light dimmer circuits   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Typical light dimmers are built using thyristors and the exact time when the thyristor is triggered relative to the zero crossings of the AC power is used to determine the power level.
Even though the light can be completely turned off using triac or thyristors, those components are not generally considered to be reliable enough to be used as light switches which remove the dangerous voltages from the light circuit when needed.
Lighting dimmers use phase-control - you switch on at a point on the supply voltage waveform after the zero-crossing, so that the total energy input to the lamp is reduced.

 Light cycle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Light cycles are fictional vehicles used in the simulated world of the Tron universe.
These futuristic two-wheeled vehicles resemble motorcycles and create walls of colored light.
The vehicles were primarily used in a competition between humanoid computer programs, similar to an old computer game sometimes known as "Surround".

 Light Cycle
Designed to provide a variety of experiences, Light Cycle will unfold in three stages from five firing locations in the Park, taking as its central motif a 1,000 foot high colossal halo of fire and light.
Light Cycle will begin with Signal Towers, a series of five pillars of fire referencing ancient methods of communication.
The second stage, Light Cycle, is the focus of the program, and will consist of a series of luminous halos.

 Maximizing Light Cycle Oil Yield
For example, in winter the value of light cycle oil, when used as a blending component in heating oil, can be greater than that of gasoline.
All three cases illustrated are similar in that the increased light cycle oil yield is accompanied by reduced yields of coke and gas.
This allows the heavy end of the gasoline fraction to be drawn off with the light cycle oil, resulting in a barrel-for-barrel trade of gasoline volume for light cycle oil.

During the hydroponics cycle conducted from Oct 6, 2001 to March 6, 2002 a set of five Rhode Island Red chicks purchased in April, 2001 were housed next to the hydroponics, sharing the light.
In addition, any light used to grow hydroponics can be utilized on the periphery to trigger egg laying in chickens.
Within a week of the Metal Halide light, burning 18 hours a day for the hydroponics cycle, the flock began delivering an average of 4.44 eggs a day, or an average of.247 eggs per light hour, an overall increasing in laying some 2.3 times greater under the influence of Halide vs Incandescent light.

 The Reef Tank - Thoughts on my light cycle!!
My lighting is not as complex as yours but I have the 2 actinics come on at 11am then the 2 daylights(white act and aquasun) come on at noon so all of them run till 1030pm when the daylights shut down folled by the actinics an hour later, for a photoperiod of approx 12.5 hrs.
Given that the tank gets some ambient light from the curtains being open in the morning it gets a gradual ramp up effect and even better if I add MH as it will better simulate the intesity of the sun over the course of the day.
I havent tried moon light simulation yet, so I can't address that, but it seems most moonlight sim bulbs are much lower wattage more like 6 or 10 watt deep blue.

However, this is not circular, as required by the light mount.
The best I can think of is to secure some dense foam rubber and cut out a shape that will fit over the suspension cross-member, and is circular and a little oversize on the outside, so that the light can clamp onto it.

Light Cycle is a simple game I happened to write some time ago (I really didn't plan to do it, it sort of happened by itself ;).
The idea is simple: there are 2 - 4 cycles on the game arena, each leaving a trail behind itself, and the goal is to avoid crashing into the trails or arena walls and eliminate other players.
The game arena is presented in a top-down view and the cycles are just dots leaveing trails (lines) behind them.

I guess plants growing in sunlight are accustomed to the various factors of nature and therefore cope with sudden light cycle changes etc...
The reason to gradually alter the light dark cycle until it matches the outside before moving plants is so that they can stay in the vegetative phase.

Just a thought, but can you run a normal "incandescent" light instead (not so obvious but you dont interupt the light cycle).
As Jah said the hermie problem shouldn't arise but keep in mind the more you interupt the "normal" cycles, the more stressed the plant will be and then the more chance it will turn 'hermie".
