LPT stands for line print terminal, the name by which the operating system knew the parallel port, which used a twenty-five-pin DB-25 connector on the computer and a thirty-six-pin Centronics connector at the printer end.

A computer with PS/2 ports has two six-pin mini-DIN sockets that are identical in shape, so they are distinguished by colour: purple for the keyboard and green for the mouse.

Unshielded twisted pair cable has no metal foil or braid around its pairs, so it resists electromagnetic interference less well than shielded twisted pair, not better; the only protection it has is the twisting of each pair, which cancels much of the noise picked up by the two wires.

The High-Definition Multimedia Interface carries high-definition digital video and multi-channel digital audio in the same cable, which is why one HDMI lead is enough to join a computer to a television or a projector.

The Video Graphics Array connector is a D-shaped plug with fifteen pins in three rows of five, usually coloured blue, and it carries an analogue video signal only, so a separate cable is needed for sound.

The standard first appeared in 1996 and was meant to replace the many different ports of an older computer with one socket for every kind of peripheral.

A no-confidence motion against the Council of Ministers is moved in the Lok Sabha under Rule 198 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the Lok Sabha.

The rules provide that once the Speaker admits an adjournment motion, the House must give it not less than two hours and thirty minutes of discussion, so that a matter grave enough to set aside the listed business is actually examined.
