calibration

1) The process of comparing an instrument's output signal with reality. Instruments that measure solar energy tend to "drift", that is, their output signals do not mean the same thing from one time period to another. Because of this, they are periodically (annually or semi-annually) re-calibrated against more reliable instruments.

2) Adjusting a measuring instrument to make it accurate. The set of operations which establish, under specified conditions, the relationship between values indicated by a measuring instrument or measuring system and the corresponding values of a quantity realized by a reference standard.

3) The act of adjusting the color of one device relative to another, such as a monitor to a printer, or a scanner to a film recorder. Or, it may be the process of adjusting the color of one device to some established standard.

Ummayad Caliphate

The Ummayad Caliphate (in Arabic: الخلافة الأموية: alkhilafat al'umawia) very first of the caliphates. It started in 661 when Ali ibn Abi Talib, the last Rashidun caliph, died. His rival Muawiya started a caliphate that would expand to the borders of Islam. In 711, Tarek ibn Ziyad led a Berber army up into Iberia and won, expelling the Visigoths out of Spain. As the caliphate expanded, it started to get less religious. It was defeated in 750 when Abbasid armies, from their base in Baghdad, attacked with the help of Ummayad rebels in north-east Iran.
