	Natural logarithm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The natural logarithm, formerly known as the hyperbolic logarithm, is the logarithm to the base e, where e is equal to 2.718281828459...
		On hand-held calculators the natural logarithm is ln, whereas log is the base-10 logarithm.
		The reason we call the ln(x) "natural" is twofold: first, expressions in which the unknown variable appears as the exponent of e occur much more often than exponents of 10 (because of the "natural" properties of the exponential function which allow it to describe growth and decay behaviors)

	Frequently Asked Questions - The International Log Builders' Association
		In a handcrafted building, the log is still a natural log, the only alteration being that it has undergone removal of the outer bark and part or all of the "cambium" or inner bark layer.
		Logs that have been altered from their natural profile, either by hand, machine, or a combination of both, but still “joined” in a process that involves the custom hand-fitting of these components is also still considered to be handcrafted.
		A good example of this would be a “hewn” log wall profile, where the logs have been flattened on their sides, and then either scribed or chinked together involving the use of scribed interlocking notches, or perhaps incorporated into a pièce en pièce system of logwork.

	Natural Log Siding
		If natural log siding is applied “green” and butted together, a chink line will result.
		Natural log siding that is hand peeled provides an enhanced appearance.
		Logs are sawn parallel to the bark and this product is the primary one created from each log.

	LogHomeLinks.com - Articles - AMERICAN LOG HOME ARTICLE
		The tools and materials to build a log home have greatly improved through the years, but the mark of the log home as a true and lasting symbol of American history is that most log homes of today look like they did in the early pioneer days.
		A good log home design will mean that almost no humidity will accumulate on the log surface to form a home for decay and insects, and rain water will bead or run off a properly treated and cared for log which soon dries completely in the open air.
		Logs with pre-cut tongue-and-grove alignment for stability and strength, floor and roof beams, various roofing system options, logs with integral rain drip edge, insulating sealants and chinking to hold back the outside weather.

	PA 765: Logit, Probit, and Log-linear Models
		The natural log of the odds ratio is the log odds, which is the "Parameter estimate" in SPSS loglinear output.
		The log of the odds ratio, ln(.5333)= -.629 is the parameter estimate for the interaction of the independent and dependent.
		Where the logit transformation is the natural log of the odds ratio, the function used in probit is the inverse of the standard normal cumulative distribution function.

		Because these two logs are pretty much the only logs that are used "in real life", these are the only two for which you have calculator keys.

	Talk:Natural logarithm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"log" = natural log is as agreed a convention in mathematics as "sin" = sine or "cosine" = cosine.
		In simple terms, the natural logarithm function, or, accordingly, powers of e, occur frequently in natural processes (which is why it's called natural logarithm), and, curiously, e to a given power in calculus is its own differential or integral, meaning that it remains constant in calculus.
		Is "log" not "natural log" by default, for you?

	Accelerated Log Building History
		On Saturday morning, we scribed the logs that had been rough-notched, took them off the stacked shell, and 12 people cut them in one and a half hours, and we got them back on the building— the fits were good.
		Sometimes I tell log builders that Accelerated methods are the way log walls are "supposed" to be built, by which I mean that some of the puzzling things that we have to do with one-log-at-a-time shells in order to get them fit and stay fit over time can be easily explained by understanding Accelerated methods.
		Natural Log Homes is offering a very few people the opportunity to try a new handcrafted log home kit: logs that have been drawknife-peeled and scribed, and are ready for you to cut the notches and grooves.

	Bird Watcher's Digest: Natural Log Feeder
		That afternoon I spread the first of what would be many buckets of sunflower seed on that log, and ever since it has attracted the attention of thousands of birds and been a source of hundreds of hours of enjoyment for my wife and me. No bird-feeding concept could be more simple or natural.
		Placing the log at a 90-degree angle to your house--instead of parallel to it--will encourage most birds to fly away from dangerous windows when startled rather than into them.
		It depends on your climate and the size of the log, but a good 10 to 20 years is not unreasonable.

	The Natural Log: Recognizing Handwritten Mathematics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The last few years has seen the advent of a number of commercially successful products which are able to recognize a user's natural handwriting and use this ability to perform simple tasks such as scheduling appointments and writing memos.
		Most scientists and engineers, however, are unable to take advantage of these computers for their technical work due to the lack of effective algorithms for interpreting more complex handwritten expressions, particularly diagrams, graphs, equations, and other mathematical forms.
		Mathematical expressions are a natural place to begin such research as they are critical to virtually all technical writing and there already exists a wide body of literature on recognizing handwritten letters and words, major subcomponents of these expressions.
