  The Genus Acineta; edited May 2007
The name for this genus was taken from the Greek word άκίυητος (akinetos) meaning "immobile," in reference to the rigid, non-articulated (jointless) lip.
The type species for the genus was Acineta humboldti, described in 1843 by Dr. John Lindley in Edwards's Botanical Register 29: Misc.
One early synonym for the genus is Neippergia C. Morrill 1849; dedicated to Graf Alfred Neipperg of the Pricipality of Württemberg, patron of the natural sciences [see Acn.

 The social mosaic attempted: the photographs of August Sander People of the Twentieth Century: August Sander's ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
While maintaining its strong agrarian identity, the Sander household evidently valued the technological advances of industrialization, and considered intellectual and artistic pursuits to be a part of its solid, respectable existence; Sander’s early interest in the new medium of photography was supported.
Because he always used the traditional camera with glass plates and tripod, Sander’s subjects were conscious participants in their portraits, and the photos bespeak a degree of human connection, that “burrowing” into the other that Voronsky spoke of, to the highest degree.
Although Sander did not die in complete obscurity, People of the Twentieth Century was left unpublished; it has only been on the basis of his outline for the project dating from 1924 that subsequent editors have arranged his outstanding photographs, always with a fair amount of guesswork as to what Sander himself would have intended.

The scientific name is Sander lucioperca (or Stizostedion lucioperca), and it is closely allied to perch.
Zander are often called pike-perch as they resemble the pike with their elongated body and head and the perch with their spiny dorsal fin.
Binomial name Sander vitreus (Mitchill, 1818) This article is about the fish; for the terms related to the eye, see Iris (anatomy) and Strabismus.

 Tools for linguloid taxonomy: the genus Obolus (Brachiopoda) as an example
All of these criteria exhibit great variability, so when the erection of a new linguloid genus or species is contemplated its characteristics must be measured and compared not only with a single related taxon but also with all possible relatives.
Furthermore, this genus along with the genus Lingula, both of which have provided a name for the family, share an occurrence unique among the inarticulated brachiopods: that is many more or less complete fossils specimens have been assigned to one or the other genus based solely on the shape of the shell.
Information on the sites where types are deposited and their accessibility for study or revision is sometimes rather difficult to obtain for linguloid taxa, contrary to Recommendation 72F of the ICZN (1999).

It was not until 1961 that Dressler re-established the genus.
This is not the case 100% of the time, but significant enough to include this trait in the decision to spin the group off into a new genus.
The Mexico species were published in 1974, but it is interesting to note IF a hybrid was registered as a Epidendrum prior to 1961, Sander's will continue to use Epidendrum for its hybrid registration.

 Cattleya warscewiczii
Cattleya warscewiczii is not only the largest-flowered of the Cattleya genus with flowers that can reach 12 inches across from petal tip to petal tip, it also produces the largest flower spikes with as many as 10 of these huge flowers per spike.
Sander did not mean “variety” in the sense of “clone” when he wrote this, but it is sometimes misinterpreted to mean that.
While Sander could tell his collectors in Venezuela to ship him a case or two of C. mossiae alba, no one had ever seen an alba C. warscewiczii until ‘Firmin Lambeau’ came along.

The contributions of our work include a preprocessing and rendering system for view-dependent LOD rendering by geomorphing static buffers using per-vertex weights, a vertex buffer tree to minimize the number of API draw calls when rendering coarse-level geometry, and automatic methods for efficient, transparent LOD control.
Their resource and computational requirements can be calculated exactly, hence making them also suitable for applications requiring level of service guarantees.
We dem-onstrate that this added flexibility reduces parametrization distortion and thus provides greater geometric fidelity, particularly for shapes with long extremities, high genus, or disconnected components.
