Film speed
The CIPA DC-004 standard requires that Japanese manufacturers of digital still cameras use either the REI or SOS techniques, and DC-008 updates the Exif specification to differentiate between these values. Consequently, the three EI techniques carried over from ISO 12232:1998 are not widely used in recent camera models (approximately 2007 and later). As those earlier techniques did not allow for measurement from images produced with lossy compression, they cannot be used at all on cameras that produce images only in JPEG format.
DC×3
"DC×3" (Dead Cat Three Times) is the second single released by Australian alternative metal band Grinspoon, from the debut album, "Guide to Better Living". It peaked at No. 50 on the ARIA Singles Chart. It also reached No. 34 on Triple J's Hottest 100 in 1997.

105th United States Congress
The One Hundred Fifth United States Congress was a meeting of the legislative branch of the United States federal government, composed of the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives. It met in Washington, DC from January 3, 1997, to January 3, 1999, during the fifth and sixth years of Bill Clinton's presidency. Apportionment of seats in the House of Representatives was based on the Twenty - first Census of the United States in 1990. Both chambers had a Republican majority. President Clinton was impeached by the US House of Representatives of the 105th Congress.
It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)
This was a signature song for Bon Scott. Brian Johnson, who replaced Scott as AC / DC's lead vocalist from 1980 until his departure in 2016, did not perform it out of respect for his predecessor.
Tryin' to Get to You
"Tryin' to Get to You" is a song written by R&B singer songwriters Rose Marie McCoy and Charles Singleton It was originally recorded by the Washington DC vocal group The Eagles in 1954 and released in mid-1954 on Mercury Records 70391. Advertising in "Billboard" magazine indicates that the format of the title on The Eagles’ record was “Tryin’ to Get to You”, with an apostrophe.
Back in Black
Back in Black is the seventh studio album by Australian rock band AC / DC. Produced by Robert John ``Mutt ''Lange, the album was released on 25 July 1980 by Albert Productions and Atlantic Records. By the late 1970s, AC / DC began to achieve significant popularity outside their native Australia, with high - energy live performances and a string of successful albums. In 1978, they paired with producer Lange and recorded their international breakthrough, Highway to Hell. Back in Black is the band's first album with vocalist Brian Johnson, replacing Bon Scott, who had died in February of the same year, shortly before the band started recording the album. Instead of disbanding, the group decided to continue with Johnson.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales
Dead Men Tell No Tales was released in conventional, Disney Digital 3 - D, RealD 3D and IMAX 3D formats on May 26, 2017, ten years and one day after release of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007). The film received criticism for its complicated and convoluted plot, though the performances, visuals and shorter running time were praised; some critics considered the film an improvement over its predecessor, while others felt the franchise had run its course. The film has made $794 million worldwide, the second - lowest gross of the series but the eighth highest of 2017.
C. J. Cregg
C.J.'s lip - synched performance of ``The Jackal ''by Ronny Jordan in the episode`` Six Meetings Before Lunch'' was written in after Sorkin witnessed Janney doing ``some impromptu lip - synching ''in her trailer on the set. Janney's performance was deemed too`` good'' by Sorkin during initial production, and she was advised to make it more ``awkward ''to fit the character for the final screen version.
Jehovah's Witnesses
Though Jehovah's Witnesses do not accept blood transfusions of whole blood, they may accept some blood plasma fractions at their own discretion. The Watch Tower Society provides pre-formatted durable power of attorney documents prohibiting major blood components, in which members can specify which allowable fractions and treatments they will personally accept. Jehovah's Witnesses have established Hospital Liaison Committees as a cooperative arrangement between individual Jehovah's Witnesses and medical professionals and hospitals.
Railway electrification system
There has, however, been interest among railroad operators in returning to DC use at higher voltages than previously used. At the same voltage, DC often has less loss than AC, and for this reason high-voltage direct current is already used on some bulk power transmission lines. DC avoids the electromagnetic radiation inherent with AC, and on a railway this also reduces interference with signalling and communications and mitigates hypothetical EMF risks. DC also avoids the power factor problems of AC. Of particular interest to railroading is that DC can supply constant power with a single ungrounded wire. Constant power with AC requires three-phase transmission with at least two ungrounded wires. Another important consideration is that mains-frequency 3-phase AC must be carefully planned to avoid unbalanced phase loads. Parts of the system are supplied from different phases on the assumption that the total loads of the 3 phases will even out. At the phase break points between regions supplied from different phases, long insulated supply breaks are required to avoid them being shorted by rolling stock using more than one pantograph at a time. A few railroads have tried 3-phase but its substantial complexity has made single-phase standard practice despite the interruption in power flow that occurs twice every cycle. An experimental 6 kV DC railway was built in the Soviet Union.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales
Dead Men Tell No Tales was released in conventional, Disney Digital 3 - D, RealD 3D and IMAX 3D formats on May 26, 2017, ten years and one day after the release of At World's End (2007). The film received praise for the performances, especially that of Bardem, visuals, music and shorter running time, and criticism for the convoluted and complicated plot; some critics considered the film an improvement over the recent sequels while others thought the franchise had run its course. The film grossed $794 million worldwide, the second - lowest gross of the series but the eighth highest - grossing film of 2017.

Railway electrification system
In the Soviet Union, in the 1970s, a comparison was made between systems electrified at 3 kV DC and 25 kV AC (50 Hz). The results showed that percentage losses in the overhead wires (catenary and contact wires) was over 3 times greater for 3 kV DC than for 25 kV AC. But when the conversion losses were all taken into account and added to overhead wire losses (including cooling blower energy) the 25 kV AC lost a somewhat higher percent of energy than for 3 kV DC. Thus in spite of the much higher losses in the catenary, the 3 kV DC was a little more energy efficient than AC in providing energy from the USSR power grid to the terminals of the traction motors (all DC at that time). While both systems use energy in converting higher voltage AC from the USSR's power grid to lower voltage DC, the conversions for the DC system all took place (at higher efficiency) in the railway substation, while most of the conversion for the AC system took place inside the locomotive (at lower efficiency). Consider also that it takes energy to constantly move this mobile conversion hardware over the rails while the stationary hardware in the railway substation doesn't incur this energy cost. For more details see: Wiki: Soviet Union DC vs. AC.

History of the FIFA World Cup
The 1998 World Cup was held in France, and had an expanded format featuring 32 teams. Iran beat the Maldives in qualification by the widest margin in World Cup history -- 17 -- 0. In the finals, the second round match between France and Paraguay witnessed the first golden goal in World Cup history, as Laurent Blanc scored to give the hosts a 1 -- 0 victory. Hosts France won the tournament by beating Brazil 3 -- 0 in the final, as the scorer of four goals in the tournament, Ronaldo, appeared to be less than a hundred percent in the match, and was unable to make any impact. Debutants Croatia finished a commendable third.
