The name " Acme " is used as a generic corporate name in a huge number of cartoons, comics, television shows ( as early as an I Love Lucy episode ), and film ( as early as Buster Keaton's 1920 silent film Neighbors and Harold Lloyd's 1922 film Grandma's Boy ).

Similarly, his features were never shown on television as Lloyd's price was high: " I want $ 300, 000 per picture for two showings.

After visiting Hat Trick Productions with her agent, and singing an impromptu version of Marie Lloyd's song The Boy I Love Is Up in the Gallery, she was offered the lead role in Miss Marie Lloyd-Queen of The Music Hall for BBC Four.

Although Panama eventually confirmed that the vessel was still legally registered by that government as Lichfield I for the ship's true original owners and Lloyd's Registry of Shipping confirmed this information, further legal questions were generated about how the ship had passed from the hands of the US government into the physical possession of Ganter who had then sold the ship to Weiner.

The most common form of the algorithm uses an iterative refinement heuristic known as Lloyd's algorithm.

Lloyd's algorithm starts by partitioning the input points into k initial sets, either at random or using some heuristic data.

Lloyd's algorithm and k-means are often used synonymously, but in reality Lloyd's algorithm is a heuristic for solving the k-means problem, as with certain combinations of starting points and centroids, Lloyd's algorithm can in fact converge to the wrong answer.

Other variations exist, but Lloyd's algorithm has remained popular, because it converges extremely quickly in practice.

* The original paper describing the algorithm, as an extension to Lloyd's algorithm:

In computer science and electrical engineering, Lloyd's algorithm, also known as Voronoi iteration or relaxation, is an algorithm for grouping data points into a given number of categories, used for k-means clustering.

Lloyd's algorithm is usually used in a Euclidean space, so the distance function serves as a measure of similarity between points, and averaging of each dimension for the averaging, but this need not be the case.

Lloyd's algorithm starts by partitioning the input points into k initial sets, either at random or using some heuristic.

Lloyd's algorithm starts with an initial distribution of samples or points and consists of repeatedly executing one relaxation step:

Since the algorithm converges slowly, and, due to limitations in numerical precision the algorithm will often not converge, real-world applications of Lloyd's algorithm stop once the distribution is " good enough.

Lloyd's algorithm is also used to generate dot drawings in the style of stippling.

Irish actor Stephen Boyd, a close friend of Lloyd's, was originally set to star as Sandy Young, the Sergeant Major who trains the mercenaries before their mission.

Lloyd's health challenges are now recognized as having been more complex than originally understood.

On each occasion the allegation that there had been a policy of ' recruit to dilute ' was rejected, however, at first instance the judge described the Names as the innocent victims [...] of staggering incompetence and at appeal the Court found that representations that Lloyd's had a rigorous auditing system were false ( 376 of the judgment: [...] the answer to the question [...] whether there was in existence a rigorous system of auditing which involved the making of a reasonable estimate of outstanding liabilities, including unknown and unnoted losses, is no.

A coverholder can have full or limited authority to underwrite on behalf of a Lloyd's syndicate.

During both appearances, Lloyd's hand injury can clearly be seen.

His work can also be found in many museums and galleries, including Guildhall Art Gallery, Lloyd's of London and the Royal Institution.

Lloyd's main goal is to find a way so that he and his family can return to their home in the year 2121 from the year 2004, in which they find themselves stranded.

At first, no one can be bothered with him, but eventually Mr. Angerstein ( Guy Standing ), the head of one of the syndicates that make up Lloyd's of London, listens to him.

Three Smart Saps, a film considered to be an improvement, features a reworking of a routine from Harold Lloyd's The Freshman, in which Curly's loosely basted suit begins to come apart at the seams while he is on the dance floor.

Some marine plywood has a Lloyd's of London stamp that certifies it to be BS 1088 compliant.

The site, which will be occupied from 2014, will house, amongst others, the Group Technology Centre of Lloyd's Register who have announced a strategic alliance with the University and the University Maritime Institute.

It may be wondered how the current Members of Lloyd's could be liable to pay these historical losses.

In August, 1943, much of Lloyd's personal inventory of silent films ( then estimated to be worth $ 2 million ) were destroyed when his film vault caught fire.

According to a spokesman for Lloyd's of London, some owners of the stolen stallion will be paid $ 10. 6 million in compensation.

# The " integral unit ," " Integrated Tug and Barge " ( ITB ), comprises specially designed vessels that lock together in such a rigid and strong method as to be certified as such by authorities ( classification societies ) such as the American Bureau of Shipping, Lloyd's Register of Shipping, Indian Register of Shipping, Det Norske Veritas or several others.

Those on the rise in the middle class professions were perceived as being more likely to be dissenters than members of the other classes were, and such institutions as the stock exchange and Lloyd's of London were founded by Puritan traders.

The director Henry King was impressed with his looks and poise, and he insisted that Power be tested for the lead role in Lloyd's of London, a role thought already to belong to Don Ameche.

* At the beginning, the building used for shooting was the Lloyd's Register ( of Shipping ) No. 71 office in Fenchurch Street, not to be confused with the Lloyd's of London Insurance Building.

It rests in Lloyd's of London Underwriting Room where it used to be struck when news of an overdue ship arrived-once for the loss of a ship ( i. e. bad news, last in 1979 ), and twice for her return ( i. e. good news, last in 1989 ).

Any alteration to the vessel, whether it is a structural alteration or machinery, must be approved by Lloyd's Register before it is implemented.

" MGM's problem was that insurance institution Lloyd's of London, when it took depositions from me and other people, realized that the film could be finished.
