Curve

In mathematics, a curve (also called a curved line in older texts) is, generally speaking, an object similar to a line but that need not be straight. Thus, a line is a special case of curve null curvature.

Various disciplines within mathematics have given the term different meanings depending on the area of study, so the precise meaning depends on context. However, many of these meanings are special instances of the definition which follows. A curve is a topological space which is locally homeomorphic to a line. In everyday language, this means that a curve is a set of points which, near each of its points, looks like a line, up to a deformation. A simple example of a curve is the parabola, shown to the right. A large number of other curves have been studied in multiple mathematical fields.

A closed curve is a curve that forms a path whose starting point is also its ending point—that is, a path from any of its points to the same point.

Closely related meanings include the graph of a function (as in Phillips curve) and a two-dimensional graph.

Curve (band)

Curve were an English alternative rock and electronica duo from London, formed in 1990 and split in 2005. The band consisted of Toni Halliday (vocals, occasionally guitar) and Dean Garcia (bass, guitar, drums, programming). Halliday wrote also the lyrics of their songs and they both contributed to songwriting. An important collaborator was the producer Alan Moulder, who helped them to shape their blend of heavy beats and densely layered guitar tracks set against Halliday's vocals.

Curve released five studio albums (Doppelgänger in 1992, Cuckoo in 1993, Come Clean in 1998, Gift in 2001, and The New Adventures of Curve in 2002), five compilation albums (Pubic Fruit in 1992, Radio Sessions in 1993, Open Day at the Hate Fest in 2001, The Way of Curve in 2004, and Rare and Unreleased in 2010), and a string of EPs and singles.

History

Dean Garcia, half Hawaiian and half Irish, had played in some small bands when he auditioned for Eurythmics. The English Toni Halliday met Dave Stewart of Eurythmics after he had read a rock magazine interview with her in which she praised his pre-Eurythmics band, The Tourists. Halliday and Garcia were introduced to each other by Stewart. Garcia had played bass guitar as part of Eurythmics' live band in 1983–84 and on two of their studio albums, while Halliday was signed to Stewart's Anxious Records label as a solo artist. The pair formed an ill-fated group named State of Play in the mid-1980s before parting ways, embarking on a no less ill-fated solo career (Halliday) and further stints as a backing musician (Garcia), and then reuniting for a more long-term partnership in Curve.

Curve (magazine)

Curve is a lesbian magazine published in the United States. It covers news, politics, social issues, and includes celebrity interviews and stories on entertainment, pop culture, style, travel, and a website that hosts an internet forum focusing on lesbian issues, active since 2000.

History and profile

In 2007, the magazine's reported its circulation at over 68,200, with a readership whose median household income is over $85,372. The magazine was acquired by Avalon Media in 2010.

The magazine was featured on the Showtime series The L Word when a writer from the magazine interviews the character Jenny about her book.

Controversy

In May 2007, actress Michelle Rodriguez criticized Curve magazine and accused its editors of attempting to "out" her. She posted the following on her blog; "...but when people come out of nowhere and put words in my mouth or call me Gay, they should really think for one second How they could truly affect my life by doing such things. You don't know what producer, director, would be husband or future audience member may be influenced by these opinions and media content." Her comments ended up angering many in the gay community and some even accused her of being homophobic. Rodriguez has denied those claims as well.

Beyond Reach

by: Curve

It's nice to know, nice to know
Exactly where you're going
It's nice to know, nice to know
Exactly where you're going
I'm sorry for these bitter words
But I'm in no mood to pretend
Why should I bother with you
When you're not a very good friend
I would toss her for thinking
It was anything more than it was
But you're the new face, you're the new face
Think you're above God
And beyond reach
Beyond reach
Beyond reach
Beyond reach
It's nice to know, nice to know
Exactly where you're going
Never pick a fight
With someone bigger than you
That's what I learned
When I was at school
And it doesn't really matter
How clever you think you are
Those years, they leave
All kinds of scars
It's nice to know, nice to know
Exactly where you're going
It's nice to know, nice to know
Exactly where you're going
Carry on as you always have
And you get your just reward
He may not be what you've expected
But there's nothing you can't afford
Oh, I'm the joker for thinking
That it could get much worse than this
But you're the loser, yes you're the loser
You think you're above God
And beyond reach
Beyond reach
Beyond reach
