Young gentleman
| Морской словарь |
A term formerly used to describe a midshipman. your number’s up: this phrase, which today means “you’ve been caught,” “you’re in trouble,” or even “you’re about to die,” comes from the days of fighting sail. for ease of signaling and identification, every warship was given a unique four-letter “number” which, when hoisted, was said to be “up.” when the flagship flew a number with no other message, it was a peremptory summons for the captain to report immediately to the admiral. this frequently meant a reprimand for some lapse of conduct or dereliction of duty, so word from the officer on watch “captain, your number’s up” was seldom welcomed. yow-yow: a small chinese sampan.

Midshipman, английский
- 1. during the 17th century, a naval rating for an experienced seaman.
- A naval cadet appointed by the admiralty, with the exception of one in each ship appointed by the captain. no person can be appointed midshipman until he has served one year, and passed his examinations; nor a lieutenant without having previously served six years in the royal navy as midshipman, and having further passed two severe examinations—one in seamanship and one in gunnery. a midshipman is then the station in which a young volunteer is trained in the several exercises necessary to attain a knowledge of steam, machinery, discipline, the general movements and operations of a ship, and qualify him to command.
- Formerly, a senior petty officer belonging to a group from which commissioned officers would be chosen. so-called because they berthed amidships, between the crew who berthed forward and the commissioned officers who lived aft. to be rated midshipman, a candidate had to have served at least two years at sea, either before the mast or as a captain’s servant, the latter position being reserved for “young gentlemen” with patronage connections. after a minimum of six years of sea service a midshipman could take the examination for third lieutenant, but might have to wait many more years before a vacancy arose. thereafter advancement depended entirely on seniority (see also master’s mate). during the napoleonic wars midshipmen tended to fall into three distinct categories: • well-connected teenage “gentlemen,” confidently expecting to pass the lieutenant’s examination and be commissioned. • ambitious but embittered 30–40 year-olds, who had either repeatedly failed that exam or, worse, had passed but lacked the essential patron. • hard-bitten professional seamen, promoted from the lower deck and not expecting to go further. nowadays it is the rank of the most junior british naval officer, equivalent to u.s. ensign but not commissioned and classified as “subordinate officer.” the rank insignia, which originated in 1758, is a white collar patch that some say can be traced all the way back to roman times when a white toga was the badge of aspirants to higher office. in the united states the title refers to members of the naval reserve officer training corps at a u.s. university and to students at the u.s. naval and merchant marine academies. navy regulations give them an ambiguous status, saying “midshipmen are, by law, officers in a qualified sense” (author’s emphasis). see also passed midshipman and aviation midshipman.
Identification, английский
- Identification is the association of a particular record within a set of data with a particular population unit.
- Опознавание
- Идентификация; отбор необходимой информации для обработки; выбор массивов (документы оон)
- The act of discovering or stating who someone is or what something is identification with someone the act of associating with and unconsciously taking on the viewpoints and behaviours of one or more other people
- Идентификация определение, установление возбудителя.
- The correspondence between a largely behavioral model and the portion of reality it claims to represent. one can think of such models as having equations whose parameters must be chosen in order for the model to be specified. a parameter can either be assumed to have a certain value and is then hypothesized or it can be estimated (->estimation) from given data and is then said to be identified. a model may be under-identified when not all of its parameters are identified or it may be over-identified when there are two or more inconsistent estimates of a parameter.
- A unique identifier of an object or person.
- Proof or evidence that supports an identity claim.
- The process of mapping an object onto the supported identification schemas or getting the unique user identifier (uid). the operating system, iis, or commerce server usually provides this identification.
- Установление личности клиента

Yureisen, английский
An ancient japanese fisherman’s legend tells of this archaic war junk that appears from nowhere, moving rapidly despite its lack of sails and halyards. the sight can be extremely dangerous, but the remedy is to steer head-on towards the junk. as soon as it is rammed, the apparition will disappear, but the waters will immediately be filled with struggling men crying for scoops with which to bail out the sea. the wise fisherman will only throw them dippers with holes in them, for if they are given proper scoops they will throw water into the fishers’ boat to sink it. z
