	Ringer equivalence number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In telecommunication, a ringer equivalency number (REN) is a somewhat arbitrary number which denotes the loading a telephone ringer has on the line.
		A ringer equivalency number of 1 represents the loading effect of a single "traditional" telephone ringing circuit, such as that within the Western Electric Model 500 desk telephone.
		The total REN for a subscriber's line is simply the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to the line; this number expresses the overall loading effect of the subscriber's equipment on the central office ringing current generator.

	Sydney Ringer (www.whonamedit.com)
		Ringer served successively as professor of materia medica, pharmacology and therapeutics, and the principles and practice of medicine at the University College faculty of medicine.
		Ringer showed that small amounts of calcium in the perfusing solution are necessary for the maintenance of a normal heartbeat, a discovery he made after realizing that distilled water he was using actually contained traces of calcium.
		Ringer thus gradually perfected Ludwig’s perfusion technique by proving that if small amounts of potassium are added to the normal solution of sodium chloride, isolated organs can be kept functional for long periods of time.

	Change ringing
		Alternatively, the changes may be made to a pre-set pattern or "method", and each ringer must learn that method in order to know when his or her particular bell must sound in each row.
		It is probable that if a ringer from that time could visit one of our towers today he would have little difficulty in recognising much of our ringing.
		There is always something new to learn and ringers progress at their own pace, depending on the time and effort they devote to increasing their knowledge and practical experience.

	TNMC: Untitled Deadpool Column
		The concept for the film is half-sacrilege and half-genius (my brother came up with a similar concept a few years ago, I add anecdotally), and the resulting film will no doubt walk a thin line between hilarity and blatant cruelty.
		Somewhat surprisingly, The Ringer treats its mentally challenged subjects with much more respect than its so-called 'hero.' Steve and Gary may think that they have an advantage simply by showing up, but they have no idea that Steve will be drastically out-classed by his competitors who, despite their handicaps, are truly Olympic-class athletes.
		This particular draft for The Ringer is not hilarious, although I have a friend who assures that at least one subsequent draft genuinely is. Elements of the storyline are usually very funny, but aren't always handled as such.

	Questions & Answers: Ringer / Dead ringer
		A common one is that people in Victorian times were so afraid of being buried while still alive that they had their coffins fitted with a string and a bell so they could attract the attention of a graveyard attendant if they woke up.
		Though the fear of premature burial was indeed intense and various inventions that included bells were really developed to reassure people, the expression has nothing to do with the matter.
		Incidentally, the Australian sense of ringer, for the top gun or best-performing shearer in a shed, comes originally from a much older English dialect word meaning something outstanding or superlative.

		It is such an obvious and shopworn gimmick, hardly better than a deus ex machina, that it had better be handled superbly to get any respect at all.
		Implausible as it is, the plot line in Dead Ringer is actually one of the better ones of its type; I suspect those critics who have made fun of it have not read Shakespeare or Christie.
		All the loose ends are tied up neatly (but not ridiculously so), and sets, photography, and acting all hold the attention.
