Spectral and Non-Spectral Colors

A color circle based on spectral wavelengths appears with red at one end of the spectrum and violet at the other. A wedge-shaped gap represents colors that have no unique spectral frequency. These extra-spectral colors, the purples, form from additive mixture of colors from the ends of the spectrum. White is also an extra-spectral color because it combines the frequencies of every color, which is why as it passes through a prism it is separated into a rainbow. That of course implies that all colors mixed with white like pink or any of the pastels are also extra-spectral colors because they will include wavelengths of every color.

Brown and the Revival of Assamese

In 1848, Brown published an Assamese grammar, followed by an Assamese translation of the New Testament in 1850. The language regained recognition in part due to Assamese publications edited by him including an Assamese English dictionary and an Assamese grammar book, and his association with Hemchandra Barua who was taught at Brown's school.[1]

Religious Sects

The majority of the people in the urban areas are of Hindu faith although a small number of Jains Sikhs and Muslim are also found. In the rural areas the people adhere to a reformed form of Hinduism known as neo-vaishnavite movement founded in 1500's by the great Assamese reformer Srimanta Sankardeva. This movement emphasizes equality while worshipping.[2]

Relgion in Assam

According to the 2011 census, 61.47% were Hindus, 34.22% were Muslims.[3][4] Christian minorities (3.7%) are found among Scheduled Tribe population.[5] Scheduled Tribe population in Assam is around 13% in which Bodos account for 40%.[6] Other religions followed include Jainism (0.1%), Buddhism (0.2%), Sikhism (0.1%) and Animism (amongst Khamti, Phake, Aiton etc. communities). Many Hindus in Assam are followers of Ekasarana Dharma a sect of Hinduism that gave rise to Namghar designed to be a simpler place of worship than traditional Hindu temples.[citation needed]

KIAA0825

KIAA0825 is a gene in Homo sapiens that produces a protein of unknown function. It also known as C5orf36, DKFZp686F0372, and MGC34713. The gene is located on chromosome 5, 5q15.[7] The gene is about 478 kb long and produces 8 differents variants: 7 alternatively spliced, and one unspliced version. The longest mRNA is 7240 bp long and produces a protein 1275 amino acids long.[8] It has orthologs in many organisms including chimpanzees, chickens, and zebrafish.
