The Compromise of 1877 was an informal , unwritten deal that settled the intensely disputed 1876 U.S. presidential election . It resulted in the United States federal government pulling the last troops out of the South , and formally ended the Reconstruction Era . Through the Compromise , Republican Rutherford B. Hayes was awarded the White House over Democrat Samuel J. Tilden on the understanding that Hayes would remove the federal troops whose support was essential for the survival of Republican state governments in South Carolina , Florida and Louisiana . The compromise involved Democrats who controlled the House of Representatives allowing the decision of the Electoral Commission to take effect . The outgoing president , Republican Ulysses S. Grant , removed the soldiers from Florida . As president , Hayes removed the remaining troops from South Carolina and Louisiana . As soon as the troops left , many white Republicans also left , and the `` Redeemer '' Democrats took control . They already dominated other state governments in the South . What was exactly agreed is somewhat contested as the documentation is insufficient .

A bindi ( Hindi : बिंदी , from Sanskrit bindu , meaning `` point , drop , dot or small particle '' ) is a colored dot worn on the centre of the forehead , commonly by Hindu and Jain women . The word bindu dates back to the hymn of creation known as Nasadiya Sukta in the Rigveda . Bindu is considered the point at which creation begins and may become unity . It is also described as `` the sacred symbol of the cosmos in its unmanifested state '' . A bindi is a bright dot of some colour applied in the centre of the forehead close to the eyebrows worn in South Asia ( particularly amongst Hindus in India , Pakistan , Bangladesh , Nepal , Bhutan and Sri Lanka ) and Southeast Asia among Balinese , Javanese , Malaysian , Singaporean and Burmese Hindus . A similar marking is also worn by babies and children in China and , like in South and Southeast Asia , represents the opening of the third eye . Bindi in Hinduism , Buddhism , and Jainism is associated with ajna chakra , and Bindu is known as the third eye chakra . Bindu is the point or dot around which the mandala is created , representing the universe . The bindi has a historical and cultural presence in the region of Greater India .

United States customary units are a system of measurements commonly used in the United States . The United States customary system ( USCS or USC ) developed from English units which were in use in the British Empire before the U.S. became an independent country . However , the United Kingdom 's system of measures was overhauled in 1824 to create the imperial system , changing the definitions of some units . Therefore , while many U.S. units are essentially similar to their Imperial counterparts , there are significant differences between the systems . However , in the U.S. the term `` imperial '' is commonly used when one is referring to a U.S. customary unit .

I am that I am is a common English translation of the Hebrew phrase אֶהְיֶה אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה ‬ , ' ehyeh ' ăšer ' ehyeh ( ( ʔɛhˈjɛh ʔaˈʃɛr ʔɛhˈjɛh ) ) - also `` I am who am '' , `` I am who I am '' or `` I will be what I will be '' or even `` I create what ( ever ) I create '' . The traditional English translation within Judaism favors `` I will be what I will be '' because there is no present tense of the verb `` to be '' in the Hebrew language . So for example to say `` I am a book '' in Hebrew would be Ani Sefer ( literally in English is `` I book '' ) . This translation of phrase from the Hebrew Bible is often guided by the theology or ideology of the people doing the translation or their sponsors .

The Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry ( French pronunciation : ​ ( tʁɛ ʁiʃəz œʁ dy dyk də bɛ. ʁi ) ) or Très Riches Heures , ( English : The Very Rich Hours of the Duke of Berry ) , is the most famous and possibly the best surviving example of French Gothic manuscript illumination , showing the late International Gothic phase of the style . It is a book of hours : a collection of prayers to be said at the canonical hours . It was created between c. 1412 and 1416 for the extravagant royal bibliophile and patron John , Duke of Berry , by the Limbourg brothers . When the three painters and their sponsor died in 1416 , possibly victims of plague , the manuscript was left unfinished . It was further embellished in the 1440s by an anonymous painter , who many art historians believe was Barthélemy d'Eyck . In 1485 -- 1489 , it was brought to its present state by the painter Jean Colombe on behalf of the Duke of Savoy . Acquired by the Duc d'Aumale in 1856 , the book is now MS 65 in the Musée Condé , Chantilly , France .

Sense of balance or equilibrioception is one of the physiological senses related to balance . It helps prevent humans and animals from falling over when standing or moving . Balance is the result of a number of body systems working together : the eyes ( visual system ) , ears ( vestibular system ) and the body 's sense of where it is in space ( proprioception ) ideally need to be intact . The vestibular system , the region of the inner ear where three semicircular canals converge , works with the visual system to keep objects in focus when the head is moving . This is called the vestibulo - ocular reflex ( VOR ) . The balance system works with the visual and skeletal systems ( the muscles and joints and their sensors ) to maintain orientation or balance . Visual signals sent to the brain about the body 's position in relation to its surroundings are processed by the brain and compared to information from the vestibular , visual and skeletal systems .

The Quiet Revolution ( French : Révolution tranquille ) was a period of intense socio - political and socio - cultural change in the Canadian province of Quebec , characterized by the effective secularization of government , the creation of a welfare state ( état - providence ) , and realignment of politics into federalist and sovereignist factions and the eventual election of a pro-sovereignty provincial government in the 1976 election . The Quiet Revolution typically refers to the efforts made by the Liberal governments of Jean Lesage ( elected in 1960 ) and Robert Bourassa ( elected in 1970 ) , though given the profound effect of the changes , most provincial governments since the early 1960s have maintained an orientation based on core concepts developed and implemented in that era .

Epicureanism is a system of philosophy based upon the teachings of the ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus , founded around 307 BC . Epicurus was an atomic materialist , following in the steps of Democritus . His materialism led him to a general attack on superstition and divine intervention . Following Aristippus -- about whom very little is known -- Epicurus believed that what he called `` pleasure '' ( ἡδονή ) was the greatest good , but that the way to attain such pleasure was to live modestly , to gain knowledge of the workings of the world , and to limit one 's desires . This would lead one to attain a state of tranquility ( ataraxia ) and freedom from fear as well as an absence of bodily pain ( aponia ) . The combination of these two states constitutes happiness in its highest form . Although Epicureanism is a form of hedonism insofar as it declares pleasure to be its sole intrinsic goal , the concept that the absence of pain and fear constitutes the greatest pleasure , and its advocacy of a simple life , make it very different from `` hedonism '' as colloquially understood .

Bioelectrical impedance analysis ( BIA ) is a commonly used method for estimating body composition , and in particular body fat . Since the advent of the first commercially available devices in the mid-1980s the method has become popular owing to its ease of use , portability of the equipment . It is familiar in the consumer market as a simple instrument for estimating body fat . BIA actually determines the electrical impedance , or opposition to the flow of an electric current through body tissues which can then be used to estimate total body water ( TBW ) , which can be used to estimate fat - free body mass and , by difference with body weight , body fat .

A month is a unit of time , used with calendars , which is approximately as long as a natural period related to the motion of the Moon ; month and Moon are cognates . The traditional concept arose with the cycle of moon phases ; such months ( lunations ) are synodic months and last approximately 29.53 days . From excavated tally sticks , researchers have deduced that people counted days in relation to the Moon 's phases as early as the Paleolithic age . Synodic months , based on the Moon 's orbital period with respect to the Earth - Sun line , are still the basis of many calendars today , and are used to divide the year .

A Barr body ( named after discoverer Murray Barr ) is the inactive X chromosome in a female somatic cell , rendered inactive in a process called lyonization , in those species in which sex is determined by the presence of the Y ( including humans ) or W chromosome rather than the diploidy of the X . The Lyon hypothesis states that in cells with multiple X chromosomes , all but one are inactivated during mammalian embryogenesis . This happens early in embryonic development at random in mammals , except in marsupials and in some extra-embryonic tissues of some placental mammals , in which the father 's X chromosome is always deactivated .

The cell cycle or cell - division cycle is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication of its DNA ( DNA replication ) to produce two daughter cells . In bacteria , which lack a cell nucleus , the cell cycle is divided into the B , C , and D periods . The B period extends from the end of cell division to the beginning of DNA replication . DNA replication occurs during the C period . The D period refers to the stage between the end of DNA replication and the splitting of the bacterial cell into two daughter cells . In cells with a nucleus , as in eukaryotes , the cell cycle is also divided into three periods : interphase , the mitotic ( M ) phase , and cytokinesis . During interphase , the cell grows , accumulating nutrients needed for mitosis , preparing it for cell division and duplicating its DNA . During the mitotic phase , the chromosomes separate . During the final stage , cytokinesis , the chromosomes and cytoplasm separate into two new daughter cells . To ensure the proper division of the cell , there are control mechanisms known as cell cycle checkpoints .

L.H.O.O.Q. ( French pronunciation : ​ ( ɛl aʃ oo ky ) ) is a work of art by Marcel Duchamp . First conceived in 1919 , the work is one of what Duchamp referred to as readymades , or more specifically a rectified ready - made . The readymade involves taking mundane , often utilitarian objects not generally considered to be art and transforming them , by adding to them , changing them , or ( as in the case of his most famous work Fountain ) simply renaming them and placing them in a gallery setting . In L.H.O.O.Q. the objet trouvé ( `` found object '' ) is a cheap postcard reproduction of Leonardo da Vinci 's Mona Lisa onto which Duchamp drew a moustache and beard in pencil and appended the title .
