text: Consequently, large amounts of feed proteins will be needed, and within this current global scenario soybean products are the main protein source in pig diets. Therefore, these act as a reference point, for the search of alternative sources that can help meet future protein demands. However, adequate feeding alternatives are still required. Algae production represents an acceptable alternative, as this type of aquatic biomass is able to develop under marginal land use. In addition, insects represent another potential alternative protein source considering that their larvae have a very quick development.

The color of this leash is so vibrant & perfect for the holidays or year-round! Love getting to mix and match rope leashes with the cute patterned harnesses I have from Sassy Woof. I'm always impressed with the quality of products & attention to detail by Sassy Woof, especially the rope leashes.
Was so excited to find an ombré leash!! We love anything rainbow and when it arrived the colors were just perfect. The leash is super soft with no worries of getting rope slivers stuck in your hand. It's lighter weight doesn't weigh down the puppers neck. Very pleased and just what we were looking for.
We are big fans of our Sassy Woof products! We have the rope leash in a few colors and they are great quality and love that they make so many colors to match different collars, harnesses & bandanas! This color is the perfect green for the holiday season!
Love everything about this leash! Its thick and sturdy while still comfortable to hold. Love the many colors you can choose from! Akiko is rocking the ombre teal!
We love this rope leash from sassy woof!! it's so cute as well as easy to hold and doesn't give leash burn like most!! we also have the pink rope leash, and look forward to getting many other colors added to our collection
I was sooo excited about this leash. However, not much after we began to use it the string detail around the handle that became undone. It also became visibly dirty very quickly and has not been easy to clean.
This rope leash is lightweight, sturdy, yet thin enough to wrap in your hand for adjusted lengths when walking your dog. And this ombré color is perfect for all year round and a new favorite of ours! Definitely would buy again. Also the gold details for your attachments is so cute!
It is already unraveling. Disappointed as we do love them color.
These rope leashes are the best! We have so many colors to go with different Sassy Woof harnesses. The rope leashes are comfortable to hold to have a good grip so it doesn't slip out of my hand. Highly recommend this!
Very cute and sturdy. Wish I the metal could be an interchangeable color since the rose gold stands out too much but none the less a good leash for my 17 lb bichon shih tzu mix

Where The Wind Blows / Dove Tia O Vento
With 17 concerts to his credit at
, our great friend Beppe Gambetta - musician and exceptional man - is certainly one of the artists who have walked the most on our stage. A virtuoso of the acoustic style, universally recognized as one of the true innovators of his generation, now consecrated internationally, Gambetta is now considered by the American masters themselves as their equal, worthy continuer of a musical tradition that is always alive and renewing itself. At home in the States (also literally: for a good part of the year he lives in New Jersey), a consolidated reputation thanks to numerous tours, participation in the most prestigious international festivals and teaching activities in the context of very popular workshops, during the his career Beppe had the opportunity to play with the greatest artists of the international folk scene, including Doc Watson, Norman Blake, David Grisman and Gene Parsons. Four years have passed since his last performance on our stage and Beppe Gambetta has continued his tireless activity as a concert performer, researcher, producer and traveler, despite the health emergency. Beppe was also awarded the title of Ambassador of Genoa in the World by the Mayor of Genoa and in August 2019 he received the Franco Enriquez National Award dedicated to those who promote art and communication of social and civil commitment, with this touching motivation:
One extraordinary musician who makes his instrument the narrator of a life path and a philosophy that puts man at the center of everything. Each performance by him both in Italy and abroad is full of pathos, vibrant introspection and emotional communication. When you mention Beppe Gambetta, you are talking about a divulger of dreams, a guitarist capable of transmitting the purity and magic of the musical message in a unique, inspired and unrepeatable way.
Beppe, who has always had a very intense affectionate relationship with
, recovers the concert originally scheduled for April 2020, then postponed to autumn 2020 again due to the pandemic; he comes back to let us listen to the music of a new CD totally dedicated to original music compositions: the new project contains melodies, but also - for the first time - original songs. The emergency has slowly subsided on this new record. He had left in a carefree moment with the idea of renewal, of stopping for a moment to tell about oneself after a career of infinite movement, of trying something new and finding new stimuli. Slowly the meaning of the work was transformed, it became an act of resistance and art's response to adversity. An important response that of Beppe Gambetta, offered through the most natural instrument: his music, indeed,
La musica nostra
, to quote one of the key songs of this new album entitled
Where The Wind Blows / Dove Tia O Vento
, the fourteenth of the Genoese guitarist. It is not only the double title - English and Genoese - that alludes to the renewal. It is the whole operation, which emerged in a collective moment of difficulty, that brings out the profound novelty. Ten songs in which Beppe Gambetta discovers and rediscovers himself songwriter, singer, electric guitarist: It often happens that the artist discovers his own resources and his own artistic expression along the way. Sometimes you discover your own talent by chance, other times this comes from the need to produce beauty with the few means of the independent world. My journey began as an acoustic guitarist in love with American music, over time the traveler, the researcher, the singer, the arranger, the sound engineer, the show producer, the teacher and today the electric guitarist were born. the songwriter.
Where The Wind Blows
comes out three years after
Short Stories
, once again with Borealis Records. The collaboration with the Canadian label is only one of the international pieces that make up the story of this extraordinary Genoese guitarist, the choice of the Genoese language is a tribute to his roots and the starting point for a backward journey, in the song
Dove Tia O Vento
worked perfectly to express the melancholy of the city by talking about emigrations, the harsh life of sailors, the arrival of fascism, its returns, floods, collapses and so on. All in contrast to the extraordinary beauty of him who will always call you and make you come back. A masterful work, recognized with the entry into the five finalist songs of the Targhe Tenco 2021.

Under Washington State law, marijuana is defined as cannabis with a THC concentration greater than 0.3 percent. Anything with less THC is not marijuana under state law; it is simply unregulated cannabis. Thanks to Initiative 502, we no longer prohibit this unregulated cannabis, which includes such commodities as industrial hemp, edible pot sprouts, and seeds.
But THC, the molecule primarily responsible for the psychoactive effects of pot, is just one of at least 85 known cannabinoids in the plant, and it turns out some people aren't looking for THC. Many dispensaries report that patients often want pot that is high in other medicinal compounds—like cannabidiol (CBD), which is thought to have a greater effect on pain.
One such strain found locally is called M'Otto, and with 0.23 percent THC and nearly 11 percent CBD, it is not technically marijuana under state law. It certainly looks like marijuana, smells like marijuana, and smokes like marijuana. But around here, it is only unregulated cannabis. "Since we've had it in for about a year, I would say it's the fifth or sixth fastest-moving strain we carry," says Muraco Kyashna-tocha from the Green Buddha Patient Co-op.
"A year ago, it was hard to find any low-THC strains," remarks John Brown from the cannabis testing lab Analytical 360. "Now we're starting to see, over the last six months, people propagating low-THC plants, trying to find those strains that work for them. These are real patients looking for real medicine, not looking for a high."
State regulators are aware of such non-marijuana.
"We're not addressing anything that's under that 0.3 percent THC," insists Brian Smith, a spokesman for the liquor board, which is tasked with regulating the marijuana market.
Smoking M'Otto, I feel a bit more relaxed and wonder if I'm high. That is to say, it's a bit like when I actually do get high. It's definitely not heady, though I wonder how the hash tastes.
Kyashna-tocha thinks low-THC cannabis has limited recreational appeal and should be of little concern to the liquor board. "I can't imagine this will sit high on their radar."

Frank Vincent, most known for his roles on The Sopranos and Goodfellas, passed away during open heart surgery on Wednesday (September 13) at the age of 78.
He played family boss Phil Leotardo, Tony Soprano's enemy, on HBO's insanely popular series. He's played many similar roles throughout his career, commenting that with his Italian-American heritage came many stereotypical roles.
"I think 'The Sopranos' probably solidifies the misconception that people have about New Jersey to begin with," he told NJ.com. "Because you're from Jersey, and everybody has an accent, you are perceived a certain way... (Hollywood) needs a gangster, they call me or Joe (Pesci). An Italian-American? Frank or Joe... It is who you are."
Rest in peace, Frank. You will be missed!

Post processing data and make contour plot: Error using contour (line 48) Z must be at least a 2x2 matrix to plot contour lines
12 views (last 30 days)
Mary on 8 Sep 2020
Commented: Abdallah Ghazal on 26 Oct 2020
I have raw data coming from OpenFoam. The data is about all the cell points of a slice of my geometry. So, I have 3 colums and 384000 raws for 3 parameters: X,Y and the Mach number. I want to make a contour plot of that. So, I imported the data from the text file to Matlab. I made 3 vectors out of it. I use Contour(X,Y,Mach,int). The size of X, Y and Mach are: 1x384000. And the problem arises there:
Error using contour (line 48)
Z must be at least a 2x2 matrix.
I dont understand why contour must work with matrices and not vectors. I saw in the forums that people suggest to use "meshgrid". But in my case, as the data set is already huge, meshgrid leads to the following error:
Error using repmat
Requested 384000x384000 (1098.6GB) array exceeds maximum array size preference.
Creation of arrays greater than this limit may take a long time and cause MATLAB
to become unresponsive. See array size limit or preference panel for more
So, what is the best way to make contour work with raw data without generating a huge amount of data unnecessarily.

Let A be your 384000*3 matrix.
x = A(:,1) ; y = A(:,2) ; z = A(:,3) ;
xi = unique(x) ; yi = unique(y) ;
[X,Y] = meshgrid(xi,yi) ;
Z = reshape(z,size(X)) ;

Hi, I do the same kind of postprocessing of my OpenFOAM results in MATLAB. The problem I have is the long time it takes MATLAB to postprocess that data. I bieleve this is because the 'griddata' function is inside the for loop and I do have more than 100 iterations. I am wondering if there is any way to speed up the postprocessing. For your information, a simulation of 100 iterations takes about an hour of clock time. I would appreciate any assistance. Thanks.

Wellington Harbour (Māori: Te Whanganui-a-Tara [tɛ ˈfaŋanʉi a taɾa], historically known as Port Nicholson) is a large natural harbour on the southern tip of New Zealand's North Island. New Zealand's capital city, Wellington, is located on parts of its western and southern sides. Lower Hutt is located on parts of its northern and eastern sides.[1]
The harbour, the sea area bounded by a line between Pencarrow Head to Petone foreshore, was officially named Port Nicholson until it assumed its current dual name in 1984.[2] It is now a regional park, overseen by Wellington Regional Council.[1]
In the Māori language the harbour is known as Te Whanganui-a-Tara, "the great harbour of Tara".[3] Another Māori name for Wellington, Pōneke, is said to be a transliteration of Port Nick (Port Nicholson).[4][5]
Wellington Harbour is an arm of Cook Strait, covering some 76 km², with a two-kilometre wide entrance at its southern end between Pencarrow Head and Palmer Head on the southern tip of Miramar Peninsula. It has a maximum length of over 11 kilometres and a width of 9.25 kilometres. The harbour has an entrance over 1.6 kilometres wide from shore to shore and as it is surrounded by hills over 300 meters high, it provides sheltered anchorage in a region where wind velocities may exceed 160 km/h. The depth of water over the great bulk of the harbour exceeds 20 metres or 10 fathoms.[6]
The harbour is of seismic origin, and a major earthquake fault lies along its western shore. At the northern end of the harbour lies the narrow triangular plain of the Hutt River, which largely follows the line of the earthquake fault to the north-east. The city of Lower Hutt is located on this plain.[1]
The central city suburbs spread around the hills overlooking the west and south-west of Wellington Harbour and its two large bays, Lambton Harbour and Evans Bay. Lambton Harbour is surrounded by the reclaimed land of Wellington's central business district and contains the majority of the city's port facilities. Evans Bay is an inlet between Mt Victoria and the Miramar Peninsula that serves as a flight path to low-lying Wellington Airport. The small Oriental Bay features beaches and cafes.[1]
To the east of the harbour lie several small bays, most of which are populated by small coastal communities. The largest of these suburban settlements is Eastbourne, directly to the east of the northern tip of the Miramar Peninsula.[1]
The small islands Matiu / Somes Island, Mākaro / Ward Island and Mokopuna Island are located in the harbour.[1]
The entrance to the harbour can be quite dangerous, especially since Cook Strait to the south is notoriously rough. Close to the harbour's entrance lies Barrett Reef, where rocks break the water's surface at low tide.[1]
Pre-European history[edit]
According to oral history, Wellington Harbour was first discovered by the Polynesian explorer Kupe.[1]
A traditional Māori name for the area, Te Upoko o te Ika a Maui, is derived from Māori legend and translates literally as "the head of Maui's fish".[7]
Te Whanganui a Tara, another Māori name from the area, translates literally as "the great harbour of Tara". It is believed to refer to Whatonga's son Tara, who was sent down from the Māhia Peninsula by his father to explore southern lands for their people to settle.[7]
Modern history[edit]
William Wakefield named the harbour Lambton Harbour in 1839 in honour of the Earl of Durham, who had the family name of "Lambton".[8]
Port Nicholson is said to have received its name from Captain James Herd, who sailed into the Harbour of Tara in 1826 and left it with its first European name, calling it after Sydney's Harbourmaster Captain John Nicholson[7] however, while Herd is attributed to the first charts describing Te Whanganui a Tara as "Port Nicholson" it is likely that Captain John Rodolphus Kent of the cutter Mermaid had previously named it after the harbormaster, his superior officer.[9]
The New Zealand Company established settlements in Petone and Wellington from 1840.[10]
The 1855 Wairarapa earthquake uplifted the north-western side of the Wellington bay. This led to the reclamation of Wellington Harbour, which increased the availability of flat land for Wellington City.[11]
In 1968, the inter-island passenger ferry Wahine grounded at Barrett Reef, near the harbour entrance, during a storm. Fifty-one people died.[1]
Wellington Harbour is a significant port serving the lower North Island, with the Regional Council-owned company Centreport recording around 14,000 commercial shipping movements each year. Wellington Harbour, the region's third largest container port, is located in Wellington City.[12] There is a tanker terminal at Seaview in Lower Hutt.[1]
Wellington harbour ferries first began operating at the end of the 19th century and regular crossings from central Wellington to Days Bay continue today. The harbour is also used by inter-island ferries, linking Wellington to Picton. A project to develop a walking and cycling route around the harbour, the Great Harbour Way, is gathering momentum.[1]
The Wellington South Coast and harbour entrance is exposed to open sea, providing places to dive and fish. There are also fishing spots at the rocks and reclamations within the harbour.[1]
Harbour beaches like Oriental Bay, Petone Bay, Days Bay and Hataitai Beach are suited to swimming and sunbathing.[1]
The harbour accommodates a range of activities, with five water ski lanes, an area for personal water craft and areas for windsurfing. Several rowing, waka ama and yachting clubs operate from the harbour.[1]
Small boat craft can anchor at Mākaro / Ward Island and Mokopuna Island and can also visit the Matiu / Somes Island reserve during daylight hours. Harbour cruises also travel regularly between the main Wellington waterfront, Matiu / Somes Island, Days Bay and Petone.[1]

While Angel Plan doesn't meet ACA requirements as a stand alone benefit, we can recommend brokers who design ACA complaint plans that combine Angel Plan with a Minimum Essential Coverage plan, HDHP, or a medical cost sharing ministry. For employers who aren't required and unable to offer expensive traditional health plans, Angel Plan is a benefit that will grant employees access to their most common medical needs, such as primary care, internal medicine, cardiology, telemedicine, discounted labs and imaging and more!
Our employer plans can be fully customized, and employers can contribute a set amount towards employee memberships, or sponsor the full monthly fee. Even if you are unable contribute towards Angel Plan for your employees, they can sign up on their own and receive group discounted rates.
Health insurance is often too expensive for small business owners. With Angel Plan, you too can attract and retain employees with a health benefit you can afford!

Remember one-up-man-ship? Like when you could stick it to someone by showing him/her that you had it worse in your day? You know, the kind of thing that spawned old jokes like:
'Man we had it bad – the rats in our apartment were bigger than cats!'
'Rats? We didn't have no rats in our apartment – the cockroaches ate them all.'
At one time, this approach spawned a few comedy sets where the comic would look at the audience and say something like: 'He was stupid!' (or whatever) and the audience would be encouraged to shout out: 'How stupid was he?' Then they'd get: 'He was so stupid he…' Fill in an outrageous example and get the laugh.
If you're wondering what triggered this little foray down memory lane, it's due to a book a read lately about writing. If you're new to my blog you may have missed the fact that I spend endless hours writing novels. I have three in various stages of construction and, since my only training in writing was what everybody got in school, I'm also spending time learning more about the craft of writing by… reading books. There are lots of titles out there and I've read a few things that weren't too helpful. Then someone put me on to a book by Les Edgerton called 'Hooked' (Writer's Digest Books, 2007).
This is a great text – a must read for anyone interested in writing fiction – or at least interested in writing fiction that might sell. It's full of solid advice on structure and the elements that go into successful stories. If you haven't ever taken courses on writing (or even if you have), this book will help you look at your work in a new way and provide guidance that will make your writing better – and it's entertaining.
In fact, the only thing that didn't have me completely entranced was the occasional example the author chose to illustrate his ideas. A case in point came from a discussion of the importance of opening sentences, critical in getting anyone to read your story (this includes agents and publishers of course). Edgerton came up with an opening from one of his own short stories as one of the examples of opening sentences that would 'hook' the reader. Here it is: 'He was so mean that wherever he was standing became the bad part of town.'
I read this and instantly thought that someone, just before the beginning of his story, had said: 'He was mean' and the audience shouted back: 'How mean was he?' My reaction rather undermined Edgerton's point – unless I took it as a negative example. But even if his choice didn't work for me, I still have to say that Edgerton's book had me hooked.
TL; DR (note the ; Brendan – I'm listening!)
He was so mean… go ahead, give it a try.

WikiProject is believed to be semi-active.
Although activity is slower than it once was, anyone is welcome to participate in the project.
Remove the(Tag placed May 18, 2017)
|Semi-active parameter from this template if activity resumes or if this tag was changed in error. If almost no activity occurs in this WikiProject, consider replacing this tag with {{
WikiProject status|Inactive}}.
This WikiProject is aimed at standardizing the pages on numbers. Although most of the articles on numbers currently follow a format, they do so to varying degrees. A template is given below based on the general tendencies of the number articles so far. Once the template has been examined and optimized, then the work will begin of converting each number article to conform.
The article on the number 12 has been chosen to be the article representative of this WikiProject.
There is no need to remind anyone here that there are infinitely many numbers, for we all already know that. Despite what some may rant, no one here has any intention of making a robot to make number articles. All number articles will be written by humans, because we want to have articles on numbers that humans might want to look up; thus the articles will take into account the humanistic qualities of numbers.
So the question is, what numbers should there be articles for? These are proposals:
Each article on a number ought to consist of two major sections, the first dealing with the mathematical properties of the number, the second dealing with the extramathematical properties of the number, such as cultural associations of the number.
User:Docu has come up with a very nice format he used on 37, and this format is now the favored proposal for a template. This template has been developed into a substractive template; i.e. given a fictitious Number N that has all mathematical properties (even mutually exclusive ones) and all kinds of extramathematical properties, this template shows them all. Someone using the developed template will take it, delete the statements not applicable to the number in question, then fill in the appropriate values.
Number N ( Digit 10's place of Number N- Digit 1's place of Number N) is the natural number following N - 1 and preceding N + 1.
|Number N
|Numeral system
|N-cimal or N-ary
|( prime number) or px ... py
|Roman numeral
It is a prime number, a Mersenne prime, a Fermat prime, a permutable prime, a palindromic prime, a composite number, a highly composite number, an abundant number, a surreal number, and an amicable number with 0.
Note that these should be links to the relevant articles (which already contain lists of that kind of number). There's little point in creating, say, a category of Mersenne primes; especially since most Mersenne primes won't ever have their own article.
Thirty-seven is:
The previous template proposal merely codified and organized the tendencies already evident in the existing number articles. This proposal required less work (merely uniformizing). The only problem with it is that it doesn't fall into line with the format generally used for WikiProject articles. Here is that old proposal, used on our fictitious Number N.
In spite of the stub-like bareness of some of the number articles, some worry that all number articles could become overrun with trivial information. Therefore, a criterion is needed for determining if something is worth including. One proposed criterion is if the cultural association is held by a significantly large group of people. For example, if Joe Schmoe is the only person on Earth who considers 154 to be unlucky, then it's not worth including in the article on 154. But if the entire state of Wisconsin thinks 154 is unlucky, then it should be included in the article on 154.
In general, only numbers mentioned in the religion's sacred texts are worth mentioning in the number articles.
Roman Catholic dogma holds that all passages of the Bible are equally inspired. Therefore, any number in the text of the Bible given with precision is worth mentioning in the appropriate number article. Be sure to cite book, chapter and verse. Numbers that depend on a particular edition, such as page numbers or footnote numbers are generally not considered important.
In modern Western numerology, the names and birthday of a person are reduced to a single digit using modular arithmetic. The 2-digit numbers 11 and 22 have special significance, but any other number besides 0 through 9 is not important to numerological divination. It might be acceptable to make an insert in the articles for 0 through 9 about their numerological significance.
It's important not to confuse numerology (a pseudoscience) with recreational mathematics, superstition, coincidences, etc. E.g., 13 is considered unlucky by many, but in numerology, 13 is nothing more than a 4.
In general, the number needs to be conspicuous and important to the story to be worth mentioning in the number articles. Appearing in the title is often a guarantee of conspicuousness and importance.
Each Pokémon has a number associated in the trading cards games and video games. These numbers are not used in the TV shows or movies. There was some sense of logic and order in the original set of 150, for example, Pikachu, #25, evolves to Raichu, #26. But with the addition of newer Pokémon, some of which evolve from or to Pokémon in the original set, order is no longer important. For example, Pichu, #172, evolves to Pikachu, #25, giving the sequence 172, 25, 26. There is nothing particularly "25" about Pikachu any more than there is anything particularly "172" about Pichu.
Therefore, numbers of Pokémon are not considered important enough to list in articles about numbers, other than total numbers of Pokémon, such as 150 total in the original set.
Lots of numbers occur im passim in Star Trek. It is safe to say that any integer from 1 to 99 has occurred at least twice in some episode of Star Trek, and that any integer from 100 to 999 has occurred at least once, if only as a substring. To merit mention in an article about a number, the number must be an important part of the mythology of Star Trek, such as 1701.
47. The high incidence of the number 47 in Star Trek is noted on the page on 47, which also provides a link to a list of references to 47 at Memory Alpha, a Star Trek wiki.
Numbers that appear in the official rules of the game, such as the total number of players per team, number of game partitions (e.g., 9 innings in baseball) are worth mentioning in the number articles.
A record is worth mentioning if it is from a Major League player, or if it appears in the Guinness Book of World Records. Be sure to indicate the year the record was set in order to facilitate removal when a new record is set.
In sports where the number on a player's shirt is not determined by the position he plays, only numbers that have been retired by a Major League team are worth noting. But if a player's number is determined by the position he plays, this probably falls under the rules of the game consideration above.
Car numbers of teams that have won the Daytona 500 or the NASCAR Cup Series championship are worth noting in the articles on the corresponding numbers.
Note: unless a country is specified, the term "dollar" will be used here as a generic unit of currency equal to 100 cents.
Some numbers are very commonly used as denominations of dollars and/or cents (e.g., 1, 5, 10, 100). Some denominations are official but fail to gain public acceptance (e.g., the US$.50 coin, the US$2 bill). Some facetious usages may be worth noting (e.g., the $3 bill). But the vast majority of integers are never used as official denominations (e.g., 34, 47, 1729, etc.) Therefore, it is worth noting if a particular number is commonly used as a denomination of dollar in many countries of the world.
Currency conversion values should not be included in the number articles. Those values fluctuate on a daily basis and are often floating point values. One possible exception to this might be when there is a historic concerted effort to bring a conversion value to a certain target value. For example, when Japan tried to make 100円 = US$1.
For the statistical significance of a number to be worth including in a number article, it must either be:
The goal is not to crowd number articles with raw statistical data where the explicit numbers change depending on the way the statistic is worded. For example, every minute, 17 people die of a certain disease. That would be 1020 dead every hour, 24480 every day, 8935200 every year (8959680 on leap years), etc.
Also, statistics that are in progress should not be included. As of this writing, over 1000 American servicemembers have died in Iraq. Sadly, that number will probably reach 2000. Although this number is important to us as human beings, it is of no concern to this project until the exact number is finalized.
Just as with any information in Wikipedia, articles on numbers need to cite sources. (See Wikipedia:Citing sources for general information on citing sources).
Some statements that are easily verified with a pocket calculator might not need citations (e.g., the fact that 73 = 343), but anything slightly more difficult to verify does (e.g., that 786 might be the largest number for which 2nCn is not divisible by the square of an odd prime).
It is not the place of this project to prescribe a citation format. Until Wikipedia decides on a uniform citation format, number articles may use whatever citation format would be acceptable in a mathematics journal
The OEIS and Mathworld are respectable Web sources, as are Web versions of respected professional journals.
For now (June 2006), it is acceptable for a number article not to have citations if all the linked 'word' articles do.
The issue of naming number articles went through a vote. User:Egil's proposal for naming the articles Number N (number), and making the spelled out names of the numbers be redirects, (e.g., Four hundred and ninety-six redirects to 496 (number)), received the most votes, and with the initiative of User:Dysprosia, the articles were moved accordingly. The issue of whether the "British" spelling out of numbers or the "American" spelling out should be used remains, but is no longer as pressing as it once was.
Numbers deserving their own article that are greater than 999, should have the article title written in digits without any separators between the digits of the integer part. Writing the number with separators may of course be acknowledged in the body of the article. Thus, the article on the taxicab number should be 1729 (number), though the article can mention that the number may be written "1,729" or "1.729."
For numbers from 120 to 199, "growers" should be made in which numbers are grouped in tens, containing very short stubs for each number. When it is judged that the article for a particular number is big enough, it is made into its own article. For number from 200 to 999, growers might be groups of hundreds, containing extremely short stubs for each number. Beyond about 1024, there might not be much to say about each number. But if an article is written on a non-round number beyond 1000, then a link to it should be added in the nearest lowest round number for which there is an article.
User:PrimeFan doesn't think it necessary to write articles on negative integers besides -1, but he wouldn't mind being proven wrong. An alternative, for now, however, is to make additions to the article on the absolute value of the negative number in question.
Even if a number is within the range given above, care should be taken to only create a new article on a number if there is sufficient known information to create an article that consists of more than just "N comes after N - 1 and before N + 1". As a guideline, you ought to know at least three interesting properties of a number. What constitutes interesting can be debated (see Wikipedia:Evaluating how interesting an integer's mathematical property is for one possible way of gauging this), but the point is that the careless creation of number article stubs is to be avoided.
If you only know one interesting property, consider jotting it down in an article on a near round number. For instance, if you want to write an article on 10123, see if something about it has already been written on it at 10000. That's the point of the series of stubs at the ends of articles like 500 and 7000, to see if there are numbers outside the declared project range that might merit their own article.
So before creating a new article on a number, go over this checklist:
Every project member (indeed anyone who edits Wikipedia) is encouraged to write brief but complete edit summaries. (See Wikipedia:Edit summary for advice on writing edit summaries for articles on any topic).
For articles about numbers, or mathematics in general, it is advisable to use "linear algebra" (algebra typeset into a single line, without superscripts or subscripts) or pseudocode.
For example, instead of writing "Corrected mathematical formula to sum of reciprocals of squares of factorials instead of sum of reciprocals of factorials of squares, corrected links to Italian, Chinese Wikipedias", you could write "Corrected formula Sum(1/n!^2) instead of Sum(1/n^2!), corrected it:, zh:"
In edit summaries, use the mathematical operators available on the standard keyboard (+, -, *, /, ^) even though a different operator (e.g., ×) would be more appropriate in the article text.
Although Greek letters can technically be used in edit summaries, it is preferable to use the name of the letter spelled out in the English alphabet. For example, "Changed e to pi in formula", "Mu(100) is 0, not 1" (The article text should of course fully avail itself to any applicable Greek letters).
Some shorthand notations that might be useful:
|n, num, #
|An arbitrary integer
|An arbitrary prime number
|x, num, #
|An arbitrary real number
|tri; sq, ^2; pentag; hexag; heptag, etc.
|Triangular; square; pentagonal; hexagonal; heptagonal, etc.
|sum; prod
|Sum; product
|!; !!; super!, $!; hyper!; ¡!, i!; !sum; 1/!
|Factorial; double factorial; superfactorial; hyperfactorial; alternating factorial; factorial sum; reciprocal of factorial
|bin; oct; dec; hex
|Binary; octal; decimal; hexadecimal
|Infobox, Docuan table
|The table with binary, hexadecimal representation, factorization and other general data points about the number

The following is the status of the project as of January, 2023. (This should be updated at least once monthly until project is complete).
There are continuous individual articles for positive integers from 1 to 261. Then from 260 to 300 they skip by tens, including very short stubs for non-round numbers in the range 260 to 299, (though a few have their own articles, such as 263, 276, and 284).
From 300 to 900 they skip by hundreds, including very short stubs for some numbers in the range 301 to 999 (mostly a list of one-liners only including numbers that have any info at all), though again a few numbers have separate articles, such as 360, 666, and 720.
From one thousand to 9000, they skip by thousands, following the same scheme used for the groups of hundreds; again, some ( 1001 and 1729 spring to mind) have their own articles. 10000 covers all five-digit numbers. +sj +
Navigation bars have been created for 0-9, 10-19, ..., 110-119, and for 100-190 by tens, for 200-900 by hundreds, and for 1k-9k by thousands. +sj +
-1, 0, and the fraction 1/2 has its own article.
Thanks to User:Dysprosia's initiative, most of the number articles, from 1 to 1001 have been moved according to the naming vote.
The numbers -1 through 260, and all the larger numbers that have their own article, have data tables (also known as "Docuan tables", named after the User who came up with the format) per the template. Rejoice!
Number articles of the first 11 integers (from 0 through 10) are the most essential, aside from the articles of constants pi and e. These are the listed articles by level of priority by WikiProject Mathematics:
There are five top-priority mathematics number articles:
Currently, articles for 0 and 1 are well-written within their respective mathematics sections, however they are not generally referenced (even though they contain due links, they could use primary sourcing where possible, even when generalizing). The article for π is a featured article, and the article for e is a good article.
Another ten mathematics number articles are categorized as high-priority:
The article for 5 has been substantially expanded, and can serve as an example for evolving these other number articles into a more complete form. The articles for 2, 4, 8, 9 and 10 have also been recently improved (2022-).
At least four relevant mid-priority mathematical article are listed:
Articles that are listed as low-priority include:
Methodical low-priority assignments to integer number articles have not really taken place, which is something that could be further investigated. For example, 24 (number) could be elevated at least to low-priority, given its important geometric and algebraic properties. 12 is another such candidate.
The numbers from 0 to 10 have been moved.
Status of other small integer pages, as of January 2023:
For an automatically updated list, see Category:AfD debates, subsection 0–9.
There is a message that can be added to the talk pages, Template:NumberTalk, it can be displayed with {{WikiProject Numbers}}. Currently it displays the following:

Wikipedians working on Wikipedias in other languages have realized the tremendous informative value of articles on individual numbers and have begun to create their own versions of the List of numbers and of individual number articles. The Japanese Wikipedia was far ahead of the pack, however, with articles on all the integers 1 to 100 before the English Wikipedia attained that landmark.
As of 15 May 2004, The Spanish Wikipedia has achieved that goal with 100% of the first 100, with the equivalent WikiProject being spearheaded by User:Sabbut in a format with a colorful predecessor to the Docuan table, sometimes referred to as "tabla de Sabbut". Content formatting compliance is estimated to be approximately 80%.
The Italian Wikipedia went in about three months gone from 0% to 93%, by copying and translating number articles from the Spanish Wikipedia. Sometime before September 2004, it reached 100%. The latest edits consist of adding categories.
The Swedish Wikipedia was making slow but steady progress, basing most of the articles on an old format User:Docu used for the English pages on 80 - 89, but after a quick burst of activity from Användare:Mike, the Swedish Wikipedia has reached 100%.
The Slovenian Wikipedia has started making progress in April 2004, and now, February 7, 2005, it stands at 97% of the first 100 integers, plus a few important transcendental numbers such as π and e. User:Anton Mravcek chose 12 as the starting point, in a spartan format with a Docuan table. User:XJamRastafire refined the format, and added to the Docuan table a splash of color and fields for the Euler totient function, divisor function, divisor sum, prime-counting function, Möbius and Mertens functions. This is sometimes called the Sabbutsdokujeva škatla in edit summaries.
Slord thought up of starting this project on the French Wikipedia, making a Liste de nombres page. But that page stood with its links to the numbers 1 to 100 in red for a long time, until other users decided to simplify the page. But the older format was restored, and as of February 2005, the French Wikipedia has not only achieved 100% of the first 100 integers, but also has an article on each number from 101 to 199 (something towards which the English Wikipedia has hesitated).
The German Wikipedia has articles on 16% of the first 100, with remarks on the others in the list of numbers.
As of December 2004, the Portuguese Wikipedia stands at 45%, consisting of the numbers in order from 1 to 45. The Hebrew Wikipedia has an article on 42, but no other number as far as I can tell.
On 8 April 2004, User:PrimeFan noticed that User:Glenn has been adding interwiki links to articles on numbers in the Nahuatl language Wikipedia.
On 18 May 2004, Yozh created an article on 43 in the Russian Wikipedia and a List of prime numbers. There doesn't appear to be a List of numbers.
On 1 June 2004, PrimeFan noticed that all the number articles in the Spanish and Italian Wikipedias are messed up. Seems to have something do with the Wikipedia surface redesign interfering with the parsing of the Sabbutian tables.
On 4 February 2005, User:Gebruiker:Dedalus in the Netherlands noticed that in de Dutch (nl:) Wikipedia the list on numbers has reached 23, with the last just being a stub. I worked the last week to include (stub) articles for the numbers 15 to 23, and edited quit a lot in 0 to 14, uniformizing the articles and including Docuan tables. Speaking on Docuan tables, in the English page on 9 (number) the Docuan table included a lot of rows with references to a lot of ways of writing the digit in other languages. The digits 0 to 8 are still lacking these references however. I included references to other languages in most of the digits, however probably messing with the unicode representation of Chinese and Japanese digits (or, the Unicode reference to digits is not in a contiguous block). nl:Gebruiker:Dedalus also noticed that on the German Wikipedia a fanatic deletionist is busy removing most of the articles on individual small integers, while on the Dutch Wikipedia these articles are included in the hundred most wanted by Andre Engels.

Public Safety Digest
Salinas man killed in vehicle collision
A Salinas man was killed when he apparently failed to stop and struck the rear-end of a pickup truck that was about to make a left turn off San Juan Road, the CHP.
The incident occurred at 1:22 p.m. Saturday, west of Summerland Road, the CHP said.
The deceased was driving a 1997 Subaru Outback, traveling eastbound on San Juan Road. He failed to stop behind a 2004 GMC Sierra that was stopped to turn left onto Pleasant Acres Lane, the CHP said. The driver, age 29, was taken to Natividad Medical Center along with two passengers in the Outback. The driver was pronounced dead at the hospital. The passengers sustained major to moderate injuries, the CHP said. The driver of the pickup, a 21-year-old woman from Aromas, also was taken to the hospital with moderate injuries, the CHP said. The incident is under investigation.

As the X Factor continues with the second week of Live Shows, the judging line-up for 2018 has been announced.
It seems that fan favourite Nicole may not be returning for season 15 as her contract has reportedly not been renewed.
Meanwhile Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh have both signed up for next year's show.
Louis has appeared in every season of the show except for season 12 which saw judges Simon Cowell, Cheryl, Nick Grimshaw and Rita Ora take over.
However the music manager was quickly brought back for the following season.
The 65-year-old opened up about being let go from the show on Loose Women this week.
When host Jane Moore asks the Irishman about being 'dropped' from the show, Louis corrects her and tells her that he was in fact 'sacked'.
"It's the truth," he says.
"I wasn't happy. I did [take Simon to task] a little bit but you can only stay on these shows for so long.
"Then he told me he wanted me back so he's been really fair and honest, and that's the way it is."
Speaking about being signed up for season 15 alongside Sharon Osbourne, Louis said "We love working together, we get on so well."
When talking about whether Nicole is set to return the Mayo man said: "I don't think so".

Many congratulations to the nine Canfordians who have been offered places at Oxford and Cambridge Universities this year.
Canford Centenary
2023 marks the centenary of Canford's foundation, on 15th May 1923. Our main celebrations will be held to coincide with this date during the second half of the academic year, with a Foundation Service in Salisbury Cathedral on Friday 28th April and a Proms in the Park style garden party on Sunday 25th June.
We share our anniversary with Stowe School as part of the same schools group and there are a number of sports fixtures planned in the coming months between our schools. Filming has just finished for a new Canford film celebrating our centenary and this will be launched in the New Year and will feature on a new website due to launch in March 2023. A book celebrating the centenary is also being planned.
We are very grateful to the Old Canfordian Society which is supporting and subsidising a number of events and projects.
More will be shared on this centenary page as the plans develop, and do follow the Canford School Instagram account for all the latest news where a dedicated area is being created for #Canford100
We look forward to celebrating with you during this historic year.

I recently had the opportunity to sit down with members of Boss Team Games and Saber Interactive to take on the upcoming multiplayer horror title Evil Dead: The Game. As a huge fan of Ash and his murderous Deadite antics, I have been eagerly awaiting its release. After spending a fair amount of money playing games on Xbox Series X and PC, and posing all my burning Evil Dead questions to the dev team, here are my impressions of Evil Dead: The Game and whether this ghastly action game is going to be worth it. or not.
What is Evil Dead: The Game?
Before I dive into my overall thoughts on the experience and why fans of the franchise and non-fans alike should be excited about this cleverly crafted horror game, let's discuss exactly what Evil Dead: The Game is. For those who possibly missed the eye-catching reveal trailer, Evil Dead: The Game is an asymmetric multiplayer horror title that pits a cast of iconic characters from the Evil Dead universe against a hideous player-controlled Kandarian Demon.
You and your squad of four heroes team up to explore sprawling locations from the series, loot fan-favorite weapons like the "Boomstick" and chainsaw hand, and collect key items in hopes of sealing the gap between worlds and banish the Kandarian Demon. to the hell. Or, if terrorizing other players is more your style, you can take on the role of the Kandarian Demon and attempt to brutally kill these heroes before they complete their objectives with a variety of devastating villains like Evil Ash or Henrietta.
Evil Dead: The Game aims to offer great replayability for a wide range of player types.
Evil Dead: The Game beautifully blends cooperative and PvP elements into an intense multiplayer offering. However, while most of the game's content revolves around killing or simply killing other players, Evil Dead: The Game also offers a variety of single-player side quests that allow people to relive iconic moments from the franchise. . The team was careful to emphasize that these solo missions are not considered a conventional "campaign", but wanted to provide more options for meaningful single-player gameplay.
With 13 playable heroes, three unique Kandarian Demon archetypes, a huge variety of weapons and abilities, and a collection of single-player side quests, Evil Dead: The Game aims to offer great replayability for a wide range of types. of players. Considering this is a budget title with the standard edition starting at $40, the set of game modes and content that launches with this pack looks really impressive.
Why Evil Dead Fans Should Be Excited For Evil Dead: The Game
Source: Saber Interactive
It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of Evil Dead, and I'd even go so far as to say that I owe much of my love of horror to Evil Dead 2. After sitting down with the Evil Dead: The Game dev team and quizzing you on the nitty-gritty details, I'm happy to report that this multiplayer horror title was crafted with care by some great Evil Dead nerds. And as a fellow Evil Dead nerd, hearing this absolutely warmed my heart.
Undertaking the monumental undertaking of obtaining the licensing rights for Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, Army of Darkness and Ash vs Evil Dead allowed the team to combine elements from all of these beloved mediums in a way we had never seen before. Evil Dead: The Game even managed to block out almost all of the original voice actors, adding a powerful air of authenticity to the one-liners of Bruce Campbell and the gang. There's something undeniably hilarious and magical about seeing Arthur from Army of Darkness shooting Deadites with a shotgun while Pablo from Ash vs Evil Dead decapitates demons with a broadsword.
The team even named the game's upgrade items "Pink F", inspired by the legendary "Pink Fuck" cocktail in Ash vs Evil Dead.
Evil Dead: The Game is also packed with references and Easter eggs pulled directly from the various worlds of the franchise. Saber Interactive appointed a "lore master" in charge of naming locations, characters, and in-game items, and this person went above and beyond. Featured examples like Jake's Gas 'n Go, which was initially nothing more than a logo on the side of a truck in Evil Dead 2, have been fully built out and come to life as in-game locations in Evil Dead: The Game. The team even named the game's upgrade items "Pink F", inspired by the legendary "Pink Fuck" cocktail in Ash vs Evil Dead.
A remarkable level of care and attention to detail is applied to every character and setting in Evil Dead: The Game. The heroes, villains, and set pieces feel almost ripped directly from their source material. As someone who grew up watching these legendary movies, it's absolutely amazing to see some of my favorite memories reintroduced in such an effective way. It can be a challenge for licensed video games to truly capture the essence of the intellectual property they are based on, but Evil Dead: The Game is without a doubt one of the most solid and respectful adaptations I have seen.
Why Battle Royale and MOBA Fans Should Be Excited for Evil Dead: The Game
Source: Saber Interactive
While I am obviously extremely familiar with Evil Dead and its myriad of spin-offs, sequels, and reboots, I painfully understand that many gamers have no experience with the franchise at all. Fortunately, the folks at Boss Team Games and Saber Interactive do too, and they want to make sure that regardless of your familiarity with the source material, you can still jump into Evil Dead: The Game and have fun running Deadites with friends.
In many ways, Evil Dead: The Game is similar to other popular multiplayer asymmetrical horror titles like Friday the 13th and Dead by Daylight. However, as someone who has played those titles ad nauseam, he was much more excited about the other inspirations this upcoming horror game brings to the table. Evil Dead: The Game manages to improve on the gameplay of its genre predecessors while incorporating welcome mechanics from battle royales like Fortnite and even MOBAs like League of Legends and Smite.
The delicate dance of risk versus reward when looting in Evil Dead: The Game adds a unique dynamic to the core asymmetrical multiplayer formula.
Players who enjoy the random nature of looting weapons and gear in Battle Royales will no doubt appreciate the parallels in Evil Dead: The Game. Each character has a unique starting weapon, but to defeat the increasingly powerful Kandarian Demon, you'll need to search various locations to acquire more deadly weapons. Much like Apex Legends or Fortnite, the weapons you find scattered throughout the map have different rarities and power levels. The delicate dance of risk versus reward when looting in Evil Dead: The Game adds a unique dynamic to the core asymmetrical multiplayer formula.
And for gamers who love the intense strategy and teamwork of MOBAs, Evil Dead: The Game offers a surprisingly deep gameplay loop. Each of the 13 characters is assigned to one of four classes, and team balance is critical to their success. In addition to character-specific abilities, you can even level up specific stats within a match using Pink F. Understanding how to synergize your team and what stats are best suited to counter your Kandarian enemy reminds me of some of my systems. favourites. in games like Smite. Fans of competitive multiplayer will find plenty of juicy mechanics and strategies to sink their teeth into Evil Dead: The Game.

When I first saw the Evil Dead: The Game reveal trailer, I distinctly remember saying to myself, "This sounds too good to be true." The footage shown during the game was nothing short of astonishing, and the trailer boldly demonstrated the team's love for the franchise. After spending close to 5 hours with the game on Xbox Series X and PC, I can safely say that this team has fully delivered on the promises of the reveal trailer and have something admirably special on their hands.
My impressions and much of my enthusiasm for Evil Dead: The Game comes from the perspective of a huge Evil Dead fan and frequent player of countless horror titles. That said, I can't wait for more people to get their hands on this extraordinary multiplayer experience. As someone who has put dozens of hours into titles like Dead by Daylight, Friday the 13th, and Resident Evil: Resistance, I can confidently say that Evil Dead: The Game is the best feeling multiplayer asymmetrical horror title I've ever played. Combine that with an apparent love for the franchise from the development team, and you have a recipe for a very good action game for you and a few friends.
Evil Dead: The Game is expected to launch May 13, 2022for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC, PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch.

Inky has always been one of my favorite artists, and it's awesome to see her art in action. Her paintings are so simple, yet so powerful. I love how she doesn't shy away from the use of color, even in her paintings of black and white. I have a few of her paintings hanging in my office because they just so perfectly fit the colors and design of the space.
Inky's artwork is so simple that it can be difficult to find a good example of it. Inky's style is so simple that it's difficult to find one of her paintings that are anything but simple. She paints in black and white, but her style is so simple that she can paint anything in black and white. And she always manages to do it in a way that makes it really powerful.
I like the way the walls of her office are painted, and how I wish I knew what color they were, but I can't find any of them.
One of Inkys most enduring works is her 'Spiral of The Sun'. In some ways it's the definition of simplicity itself. She paints it in black and white because black and white is the simplest of all color, yet it is also one of the most powerful. It's the most effective tool she has to communicate complex ideas in a simple way.
It's a good idea to keep an eye on the world and other people, especially in your home, and try to communicate your ideas to others.
Inks love her work because she's not afraid to take on the challenge of making a simple statement. However, it is also true that she often paints in a style that reminds one of a more simplistic kind of art. Inks works are often so simple that they look like black and white paintings. One way to tell if inks is making you think, is to look at her work in a room with a bare white wall.

The Subway Girl by Lisa Becker
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Heat Rating: 🔥🔥
I received a complimentary audiobook copy of this book from the author.
Ryan sees a girl on the subway and immediately feels a connection with her. He decides he better make a move to talk to her, but before he gets his chance she's gone. All her remembers are little details – a pink beanie and an English accent.
Ryan is determined to find her and even creates a website to find this mysterious Subway Girl. That's how he ends up being contacted by a celebrity gossip website – to see if they can help Ryan find The Subway Girl.
I won't reveal too much more of the plot, because I don't want to spoil the book! But everyone in the story is vested in Ryan to find the Subway Girl. What we slowly come to understand are the motives why – and some of them definitely ended up surprising me.
I enjoyed the way Lisa was able to highlight both the wonderful aspects of social media/celebrity gossip as well as the pitfalls. Through Ryan's journey, we are able to see what motivates the different characters in The Subway Girl and if their motivation is out of the goodness of their heart or something more sinister.
While the sexy times in The Subway Girl were hot (so hot), I wasn't really invested in the main romance. I do feel like sometimes there were too many voices in the book and those took away from the romance for me.
Story: 3
Narration: 4
Overall: 3
I'm a big fan of Erin Mallon and I think she did a wonderful job narrating the various characters in The Subway Girl. I could always fell the different emotions that a character was going through.
I enjoyed the audiobook of The Subway Girl! Mystery, romance and a bit of reality TV all combined for an entertaining romance.

For those ingesting Cannabis for medicinal purposes, Chocolate Chip Cannabis Cookie are the best and most appealing method of consumption. The prolonged high that you get from a cannabis cookie is attributed to its absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and being processed by the liver. This long duration of digestion gives two stages of effects ("high") one while cannabis is in the stomach and the other while it is being processed in the liver. Until the cannabis starts digesting in the stomach there is no effect of easting the cookie.
This two-staged effect is really attractive to customers and the readily available and storage made possible by moulding cannabis into a cookie has led to unprecedented acceptance and usage by the public.
Combination of the two best things in the world, Chocolate Chip Cannabis Cookie and Marijuana, Cannabis Mall Dispensary's Chocolate Cannabis Cookie is one of the best products ever made. Online sale of our Cookies is still on so be quick and grab a pack before it runs out.

There are many different types of elements, but only a few types of molecules exist. These molecules can be made up of one or more atoms. The molecules' atoms are held together by the chemical bonds between them.
Molecules can be made up of any number of atoms, and they can be small or large. Some molecules are so enormous that they can't be seen with the naked eye.
Introduction: What is an element, and what is a molecule?
An element exists a significance that cannot be created by chemical synthesis and must be obtained from the Earth's crust. All parts are made of atoms. Atoms are the smallest unit of an element. The number of protons in an atom determines the element's atomic number. The number of neutrons in an atom specifies the element's nuclear charge. Parts can be divided into primary (natural) and secondary (synthetic). A molecule is a bunch of two or more pieces combined to form a new substance. Molecules are constructed of atoms held together by chemical bonds.
1. What are the differences between elements and molecules?
Elements are the most basic form of matter and are made up of atoms. Atoms are the smallest particles that can hold a chemical element together. They are also the building blocks of molecules. Molecules are composed of one or more elements and usually have a specific shape, size, and chemical properties.
There are 118 known elements on Earth, but scientists believe there may be more out there waiting to be discovered. Parts can be divided into two groups based on their atomic number: noble and common. Noble gases (He, Ne, Ar, Kr) make up the noble element group and have deficient levels of reactivity. They are found in Earth's atmosphere and small amounts in the oceans. Common elements (C, H, N, O) make up the collaborative element group and have average to high levels of reactivity.
2. How are elements formed?
In the periodic table, elements are listed in order of atomic number. The number at the top of the table is the number of protons in an element's nucleus. The number below is the number of neutrons in an element's nucleus. All parts with a number greater than 82 have at least one isotope with a different number of neutrons. Some features have more than one isotope, and others have only one.
Each element has a unique set of six possible nuclear spin states (see Figure 1). Each nucleus can only hold one particular spin state at a time. Two seats can exchange electrons to change their spin state when they come into contact. This is how all elements are created: two hydrogen nuclei fall together to form helium, each giving up one proton.
3. What are the different types of atoms in an element?
Atoms are the minor pieces of an element that can combine to create molecules. There are eight different types of atoms in part. The eight types of atoms are protons, neutrons, electrons, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur. Protons are the positively charged particles inside the nucleus of an atom. Neutrons are also positive but have a smaller mass than protons. Electrons orbit around the heart, and each bit has a set number.
Carbon is the most common atom in the universe and makes up about two-thirds of all matter on Earth. Oxygen is the second most common and makes up about one-third of all value on Earth. Nitrogen is the third most common and makes up about one-sixth of all matter on Earth.
4. How do molecules form?
The molecules that make up our world come together in specific ways to create everything from clouds to rocks. These molecules come together through a process called formation. The formation is the process by which molecules combine to form new substances. There are several different ways molecules can join together, and each has its own set of rules.
Molecules can join together either through a chemical reaction or physical forces. Chemical reactions are when two or more molecules interact with each other and change their properties. Physical details are when one molecule tries to push or pull another around.
Formation happens in various environments, but water and air are the most common. Water forms droplets and fog, while philosophy forms clouds, rainbows, and snowflakes.
Molecule And Compound Difference | 7 Important Points
5. What are the different types of molecules?
Different types of molecules include atoms, radicals, ions, and molecules. Atoms are the smallest particles of an element that make up a molecule. Radicals are atoms or molecules that have lost one or more electrons. Ions are atoms or molecules that have accumulated one or more electrons. Molecules consist of at least two atoms and can be made up of hundreds or thousands of atoms.
There are three main types of molecules: small, medium, and large. Small molecules typically comprise just a few atoms and can travel quickly through the body. Medium molecules are more significant than small molecules and can take longer to travel through the body. Large molecules are many types and can't travel through the body as quickly as smaller ones.
6. Conclusion: What is the difference between elements and molecules?
Chemists use the terms "element" and "molecule" to describe different substances. An element is a substance that has no atoms or molecules other than hydrogen and helium. Molecules are composed of atoms. For example, carbon dioxide (CO2) is a molecule of two carbon atoms (C).
Molecules can be divided into smaller units called molecules. Molecules can also be combined to form more giant molecules. The smallest unit of a molecule is called a monatomic atom. A monatomic atom comprises one nucleus and zero protons or electrons. The diatomic molecule is the most common type, which contains two atoms. Hydrogen gas (H2) is an example of a diatomic molecule.
In conclusion, elements and molecules share many properties and features, including the ability to bond with other ingredients and molecules to create compounds. Despite these similarities, some key differences between them should be considered when working with either type of substance. For example, molecules are much smaller than elements and can travel more efficiently through the air. Additionally, molecules are often more reactive than elements, which can undergo more changes and reactions than their bigger counterparts.

Bloomberg to spend 'nine figures' in Florida, allowing Biden campaign to focus resources in other swing states
Billionaire and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has set his sights on Florida as he attempts to help push the Democratic presidential nominee, former Vice President Joe Biden, into the Oval Office, The Washington Post reports.
Bloomberg plans to spend at least $100 million campaigning for Biden in Florida, though his advisers refused to say if the total dollar figure would actually be higher, acknowledging only that it's a "nine figure" plan.
Democratic strategists have been waiting to see how Bloomberg, who spent more than $1 billion of his own money on a failed bid for the White House earlier this year, would put his vast wealth to use this election cycle, and, for now at least, the Sunshine State is the beneficiary, with most of the money going toward television and digital ads in both English and Spanish. Bloomberg's adviser Kevin Sheekey said the billionaire believes investing in Florida will allow the Biden campaign and other outside Democratic groups — who have generally shied away from advertising in Florida because it's too expensive, the Post notes — to spend in other states, especially Pennsylvania.
Bloomberg is also reportedly hoping to encourage early voting in the state, which begins Sept. 24, so that a potential Biden win could be called soon after polls close since Florida reports early ballots shortly after voting ends. In that case, there would theoretically be less confusion among the public over who won not jut Florida, but the election overall. Winning Florida would go a long a way for Biden, the Post reports. If he does, he could likely win the presidency by retaining every state Hillary Clinton won in 2016 and winning just one other toss up state among Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina.
Biden is holding on to a lead in Florida, but some polls indicate it's shrinking as he struggles to win over Latino voters in the state. Read more at The Washington Post.

Your company phone may be more at risk of a cybersecurity breach thanks to WFH
Business leaders had a lot on their plates over the past year, and many have let cybersecurity fall by the wayside.
Nearly half of businesses say work-from-home policies have hurt their cybersecurity practices, according to Verizon's 2021 Mobile Security Index, published Tuesday. The report includes findings from a survey of 856 professionals responsible for buying, managing and securing mobile and internet of things (IOT) devices for companies.
The results are pretty dismal if not terribly surprising — 45% of respondents say their companies are sacrificing mobile security to just "get the job done." Last spring's rapid transition to remote working was a huge undertaking for IT teams, and a number of high profile security breaches last year exposed the challenges of securely running a remote team.
The WFH cyber-threat
Considering the potential cybersecurity pitfalls of working from home is especially important as many companies consider maintaining a remote working model either full- or part-time even after the pandemic ends.
"The pandemic caused a global shift in the way organizations operate … While businesses focused their efforts elsewhere, cybercriminals saw a wealth of new opportunities to strike," Verizon Business Chief Revenue Officer Sampath Sowmyanarayan said in a statement. "With the rise of the remote workforce and the spike in mobile device usage, the threat landscape changed, which for organizations means there is a greater need to hone in on mobile security."
Employees are increasingly using mobile devices for key work purposes — maybe checking a text from their boss on their smartwatch while on a morning walk or updating a spreadsheet on their phone while waiting for a Peloton class to start.
While cybersecurity risks can take many forms, mobile devices present unique challenges. Phishing attacks may be more successful on mobile devices, because the smaller screen can make it harder to notice malicious emails or websites designed to imitate legitimate ones. Mobile devices are also easier to lose or have stolen than, say, a laptop, which in turn could lead to loss of critical data and productivity.
As growing numbers of companies adopted cloud-based platforms during the pandemic, mobile devices could also be exploited to steal log-in credentials and data from virtual work systems, the report says.
More than one in five companies surveyed said their mobile-device security was compromised, involving the loss of data or operations disruptions in the preceding year. And two thirds of respondents said that mobile device-related risks increased in the past year.
"Companies are still failing on the basics," the report said, which include such simple protections as encrypting sensitive data across open, public networks and restricting access to data on a "need-to-know" basis.
Bad guys get smarter
And even as companies scramble to improve their cybersecurity practices, bad actors are upping their own games.
"[Cybercriminals] are getting increasingly creative at finding new ways to fool users, break through companies' defenses and compromise organizations' systems and cloud-based apps," the report states. Mobile phishing attempts, for example, increased by 364% in 2020 compared to the prior year.
And while phishing — an attack wherein bad actors impersonate a legitimate company, service or person in order to steal sensitive data or install malware on a user's device — presents a huge threat, almost half of US employees don't know what it is, according to a separate study from security software firm Proofpoint. That suggests companies still have much work to do in equipping workers to avoid threats.
There are a range of steps companies can take to protect themselves, and many services available to help with this. But some firms just need to start with the basics: Nearly half of companies don't give employees regular training on mobile-device security, according to the Verizon report.
"Teach your employees how to spot signs of phishing—being suspicious is good," it states. That should include checking that email addresses match who they purport to be coming from, watching out for misspelled links in emails and being suspicious of incoming phone calls from unfamiliar numbers.
"And, of course, it should be a rule to never supply login credentials or personally identifiable information in response to any emails or calls," the report states.
