Savitri and Satyavan
|
Savitri and Satyavan are starcrossed lovers who were able to defy death through their love and ascetism.
Savithri was a beautiful princess who cannot choose a suitor. Her parents were worried for her, but eventually she met Satyavan. Upon meeting Satyavan, she swore she would never marry another man, and would only be with Satyavan for the rest of her life. Satyavan, although appearing as a simple man, actually used to be a prince who was cursed with a shockingly early expiry date. In specific, the curse entailed that Satyavan would die in a few years and that his parents would be cursed with blindness and lose thier wealth. Savithri's parents were ecstatic, but their excitement quickly died down when the Sage Narad told them of the curse and said their doom was imminent. Although they didn't want her to continue seeing Satyavan, they knew that Savithri was as stubborn as she was beautiful, and would not give up on a man she so purely and truly loved.
So Savithri and Satyavan lived a very simple and happy life until one day, doom fell upon them and Satyavan fell from a heat stroke. It had seemed the curse had finally taken place. However, Savithri was not ready to say bye yet, and when Yamaraj, the god of the Underworld, came to collect Satyavan's body, Savithri followed him as he trudged to the underworld.
Yamaraj, initially unpetrubed, decided to test her patience and see how far she was willing to walk. After a while, Yamraj, clearly impressed by her devotion, turned around and granted her a boon, on the condition that she could not wish for the revival of her husband. And so, Savithri asked for his parents to have their sight restored. Yamaraj obliged and Satyavan's parents had their sight back. After more walking, she recieved three more boons. For the first boon, she wished that Satyavan's father had his wealth restored. For the second, she wished her own father, who had only a single daughter, would be blessed with 100 sons. Both were granted.
Finally, however, she asked Yamraj for the boon of 100 sons for herself. Initially Yamraj obliged, but Savithri just repeated her boon and reminded him of her oath that she would only ever be with Satyavan. Thus, in order to fulfil her boon in the order of karma, Yamraj was forced to return Satyavan to Savitri.

Observation.org
|
Observation.org is a website that scientists use to validate and exchange their scientific observations. The website and mobile apps, such as ObsIdentify, allow users to access this information. It has more than 238 million nature data entries and almost 82 million photos. It is operated by the non-profit organization Observation International.
Data quality.
Experts check if the data is correct. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools help handle a lot of data effectively. Human experts have the final say on all of the supporting paperwork.
History.
Observation International started in 2003 with Waarneming.nl and grew to 50 million observations by 2017. Waarneming.be launched in 2008 had 5,000 daily visitors, and reached 1.5 million different viewers after five years. Location data was hidden during the COVID-19 pandemic to keep bird watchers safe.
Quality assurance.
Species experts select and organize a reference set of observations to make sure the quality is consistent. Automated validation supported by artificial intelligence aids validators in managing the dataset, with human experts making the final validation decisions.
Open data.
Observations are shared as open data on Global Biodiversity Information Facility GBIF. This data has 82 million events, 19 million photos, and 69,000 sound recordings. The organization is the third largest publisher on GBIF.
Use of the data.
By April 2024, over 48,000 studies had referenced the dataset, focusing on the study of how living things affect their environment and conservation. This has resulted in discovering new groups of similar living things (or species), new ideas of animal behavior changes, the watching and following of harmful species and sicknesses, as we as, supprt for national and European life where lots of different living things all exist together. This is known as biodiversity. Photos from Observation.org aid in improving species recognition technology. Users participate in events such as the City Nature Challenge and Biomaratón de Otoño to take photos of nature, record sounds, and record video.
International names.

Disability-adjusted life year
|
Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) are a way of measuring the effects of diseases. They are calculated as the number of years lost due to ill-health, disability, or early death. The measure was developed in the 1990s as a way of comparing the overall health and life expectancy of different countries.
DALYs are used in the field of public health and health impact assessment . They include the potential years of life lost due to premature death and years of 'healthy' life lost by virtue of being in states of poor health or disability. In so doing, mortality and morbidity are combined into a single figure.
Calculation.
Disability-adjusted life years are related to the quality-adjusted life year (QALY) measure; however, QALYs only measure the benefit with and without medical intervention and therefore do not measure the total burden. Also, QALYs tend to be an individual measure and not a measure of the whole population.
The most appropriate measure of the effects of chronic illness is time, both time lost due to premature death and time spent disabled by disease. One DALY, therefore, is equal to one year of healthy life lost.
How much a medical condition affects a person is called the "disability weight" (DW). This is determined by disease or disability and does not vary with age. Tables have been created of thousands of diseases and disabilities, ranging from Alzheimer's disease to loss of finger, with the disability weight meant to indicate the level of disability that results from the specific condition.
Examples of the disability weight are shown. Some of these are "short term", and the long-term weights may be different.

Arnold Dix
|
Arnold Dix is an Australian professor, underground expert, the president of the International Tunneling and Underground Space Association. He lives in Monbulk, Australia.
Dix was part of the Uttarkashi rescue, where 41 workers were trapped nearly 200 feet below the surface
Early life.
Dix is a engineering professor, scientist, and barrister. His father who was a salesman for used cars emigrated from New Zealand while his mother was a graduate of Melbourne’s Emily McPherson College of Domestic Economy. Eventually, his parents became publicans, causing them to move a lot between Melbourne, Benalla and Jindabyne. He graduated from Melbourne's Monash University with a degree in science and law.
Career.
Dix is a registered barrister at the High Court of Australia and is also a senior counsel at the White & Case legal firm. He also a visiting professor of Engineering at the Tokyo City University.
He is also an underground work expert. His interest in this field was inspired during the September 11 attacks, after Dix went to New York with a client to investigate the underground networks of the World Trade Centre.
Dix has also been involved in investigation of tower block fires and recommending solutions. Between 2009 and 2010, Dix served as an independent as an independent investigator of the Lakanal House Tower Block Fire, which killed six people. He also investigated the Grenfell Tower fire which caused at least 80 deaths. He pointed out weak fire assessment systems in the United Kingdom as a contributor to these fires.
In 2019, Dix volunteered with the Qatar Red Crescent, developing response swiftness for underground accidents.
In 2020, Dix together with Lord Robert Mair and Peter Vickery QC founded Underground Works Chambers.
Dix is the president of the Geneva-based "International Tunnelling and Underground Space Association".
Uttarakhand tunnel rescue.
On November 20 2023 Dix was called on by the Government of India, to be part of the team that rescued 41 workers trapped in the Silkyara tunnel in Uttarakhand, India.
He worked together with other agencies including ONGC, SJVNL, RVNL, NHIDCL, and THDCL. He promised that he would safely evacuate all 41 workers before Christmas, which the team managed to do. He helped inspect the collapsed tunnel, coordinated agencies and gave technical solutions to enable the rescue.
Dix suggested the use of the soft mining techniques. This method would reduce disturbances to the mountain and cause another avalanche which would put the trapped workers at risk. The rescuers had previously been using large drilling machines, which were causing vibrations to the mountain. These machines also broke down from hitting metal obstacles in the collapsed tunnel, resulting to the rescue operation being halted. They used a thin pipe to carry the trapped workers 10 centimeters at a time, which prevented further disturbance. While Dix's approach was slower it was much safer
Throughout the rescue operation, Dix showed a display of faith which garnered the attention of the public. During the operation he set up a makeshift temple and after the workers were rescued, he offered his prayers to the temple of local deity Baba Bokh Naag ji . He said that the rescue was a miracle and promised the locals to go to the temple once the workers were rescued.
In 2023, Dix proved to be a hero during the "Uttarakhand tunnel rescue". He received recognition from Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese for his work during the rescue operations.
Personal Life.
Dix is married to Divina Dix and share a stepchild together. He also has three children from the last marriage

Shum (song)
|
"Shum" (, ) is a 2021 song by Ukrainian folktronica group Go_A, made under the label Rocksoulana Music. It represented Ukraine in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 in Rotterdam and won fifth place.
Background.
The lyrics of the song come from Ukrainian folk songs that people used in the "Shum" ritual, for example "" («»). The name of the ritual comes from Proto-Slavic words ' ("noise") or ' ("forest").
Lead singer Kateryna Pavlenko grew up in Polyssia, Northern Ukraine, and the song is inspired by the folklore of that region. In "Shum" she used the traditional "white voice" singing technique.
Music videos.
Each version of the song has a music video.
For the original version, Go_A directed a video with Ivan Buianskyi and they recorded it with a smartphone. In the first three weeks, people watched it more than 1 million times.
For the Eurovision version, they recorded a new video in a forest near the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant.
Eurovision Song Contest.
"Shum" had to represent Ukraine in Eurovision Song Contest 2021. However, the song could not go to Eurovision, because the words were the same as folk songs and it was one minute too long (Eurovision rules say that songs must have original lyrics and can not be longer than 3 minutes).
Go_A did not want to change the original version, so they made made a new, shorter song, with different lyrics, and called it "the sequel". The new version has a happy energy and it is inspired by "" spring dancing rituals.
"Shum" is the second song fully in Ukrainian at Eurovision (the first was "Solovey", by the same group, the year before).

Kurixalus naso
|
The uphill tree frog, long-snouted tree frog, Annandale's high-altitude tree frog, or proboscis frilled tree frog ("Kurixalus naso") is a frog. It lives in China, India, and Myanmar. People have seen it between 252 and 1631 meters above sea level.
This frog lives in trees. Scientists do not think it lives in places that human beings have changed. The frog lays eggs in small pools of water that dry up for part of the year. The eggs hatch into tadpoles that swim.
These frogs fight each other over good places to look for food. It only eats a few kinds of food, mostly animals without spines.
Scientists believe this frog is not in danger of dying out because it lives in such a large place. Human beings change the places where it lives to make farms called "jhum" and to build dams that make electricity.

Chessplus
|
Chessplus is a chess variant made by the Australian family company Chessplus Team.
Looks.
Chessplus can come in 1 of 3 packages.
As for the pieces, they are designed so players can merge them.
Gameplay.
Chessplus is played similarly to basic chess, but pieces can merge. The only piece that can not merge is the king. Pieces can only merge with other pieces of their own color. Only 2 pieces can be merged at a time. Pieces may split, in which they use their original move.
Castling.
Castling may be done with a piece merged with a rook. Just like in regular chess, the rook can not have moved. For example, if a knight moved to combine with a rook, castling is possible, but if that rook moved to combine with the knight, then that rook can no longer castle.
En passant.
Similar to the castling rules, en passant can only be used on a combination of 2 pawns. If the combination were to be a pawn and another piece, en passant is not allowed.
Inspiration.
It was inspired by an illegal move the leader's daughter, Aimee, who, at age 8, made during a chess match with her father.
Reception.
Chessplus received mostly good reviews.

Ground proximity warning system
|
A Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS) is a system meant to warn pilots if the aircraft they’re flying is in immediate danger into terrain. The FAA defines GPWS as a type of Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS). More advanced GPWS systems were introduced in 1996 which are known as Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Systems (EGPWS) which is a modern type of TAWS.

Vertical stabilizer
|
A vertical stabilizer or a tail fin is a part of the vertical tail of an airplane (a kind of aircraft). They also usually have one or more moveable rudders hinged to it. The role of a vertical stabilizer is to make the aircraft stable, give the pilots control of the aircraft and control the yaw of the aircraft. A vertical stabilizer is normally place on the rear fuselage of the aircraft. One plane crash involving the vertical stabilizer is Japan Airlines Flight 123.

Kurixalus banaensis
|
The bana bubble-nest frog or bana frilled tree frog ("Kurixalus banaensis") is a frog. It lives in Laos and Vietnam. People have seen it between 109 and 1510 meters above sea level.
This frog lives in forests that have mostly evergreen trees. People have not seen them anywhere that is not a forest. Scientists think this frog's tadpoles swim in water that does not move.
Scientists believe this frog is not in danger of dying out because it lives in such a large place. However, human beings cut down the forests where it lives to build farms. Some of the places this frog lives are protected parks: Bach Ma National Park, Song Thanh Nature Reserve, and Bac Huong Hoa Nature Reserve.

George Wallace 1964 presidential campaign
|
The George Wallace 1964 presidential campaign began on November 15, 1963, when Alabama Governor George Wallace announced his intention to run in the 1964 Democratic Party presidential primaries against then-incumbent President John F. Kennedy. Following the assassination of Kennedy by Lee Harvey Oswald 7 days later, Wallace continued his campaign against President Lyndon B. Johnson. Wallace ultimately earned only 10.8% of the popular vote and won no contests. He suspended his campaign live on "Face the Nation" on July 19, 1964, and allegedly began to support 1964 Republican nominee Barry Goldwater. In the 1964 general election, Goldwater won Wallace's home state of Alabama by 39 points.
This was the first of four presidential campaigns by George Wallace. Wallace ran again in the 1968 United States presidential election as the nominee of the American Independent Party, where he carried 5 states. He then went on to run in the 1972 Democratic Party presidential primaries and the 1976 Democratic Party presidential primaries, where he lost the nomination to George McGovern and Jimmy Carter, respectively.
Endorsements.
In the summer of 1964, Wallace received the endorsement of restaurant owner and future Governor of Georgia Lester Maddox.
Legacy.
According to "The Washington Post", former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan David Duke based his 1992 presidential campaign on Wallace's 1964 campaign.

Digital literacy
|
Digital literacy is the name for a set of fundamental life skills that enable a person to exist in what is called information society, which is generally understood to have begun around the 80s. This means that people can use digital media platforms to their advantage. They can use information technology to create, evaluate, and share information. In English Literacy traditionally meant to be well educated and familiar with literature. In modern usage, literacy is the ability to read and write, in a given language. People who can read and write use these skills to communicate. Digital literacy is similar: The idea is to use modern electronic devices such as computers and mobile phones to get up to date information, to share this information with others, and to comment on this information on digital platforms. However, the definition of the term is broad and also includes sociocultural context. Digital literacies are "the practices of communicating, relating, thinking, and ‘being’ associated with digital media”. Multimodality is the integration of multimedia into digital text. This facet of digital literacy can expand the experience of the reader. The distinction between the people who have digital literacy and who can use it to their advantage, and those who don't have it, or can't use it is called digital divide. While using digital media platforms is often free, special devices (such as computers or mobile phones) are needed to access the platforms. Factors that contribute to the digital divide are the following: age, socio-economic class, education, and national infrastructure.

Digital native
|
A digital native is a person who has grown up in the Information Age. For a digital native, using digital technolgies such as computers, Mobile phones or the internet is normal. The other term is called "digital immigrant".
The term "digital native" was coined by Marc Prensky, an American writer, speaker and technologist who wrote several articles referencing this subject. This term specifically applied to the generation that grew up in the "digital age," predominantly regarding individuals born after the year 1980, namely Millennials, Generation Z, and Generation Alpha. Individuals from these demographic cohorts can consume digital information quickly and comfortably through electronic devices and platforms such as computers, mobile phones, and social media.

History of the universe
|
The history of the universe started with an event called "The Big Bang".
It took place billions of years ago, when the universe went from highly-packed energy, to rapidly-expanding energy, like an explosion. This was first postulated by Georges Lemaître in 1930 after Edwin Hubble observed that stars are expanding away from Earth in every direction. The universe still expands today.
The earliest stages of the universe had equal amounts of matter and anti-matter. They collided with each other, and canceled each other out. After thousands of years, matter began to outnumber anti-matter. Today, the universe is made of mostly matter, and not much anti-matter exists.
The different types of subatomic particles appeared quickly. One second after the Big Bang, particles called neutrinos separated from the rest of the universe. Neutrinos still exist, but are so small we can't see them without large nuclear machines.
When the subatomic particles collided, they created atoms. Everything you can touch and feel is made of atoms. Atoms are categorized into elements based on their subatomic particles. Elements with simple atomic structures, such as hydrogen and helium, were seen soon after the Big Bang.
Atoms can have different states, depending on how much energy they have. When these earliest atoms first released energy in the form of light, they left a measurable effect in the form of a faint glow called electromagnetic radiation that large telescopes at observatories can see in the night sky.
Once hydrogen and helium started forming, they created clouds of gas. Gravity caused these clouds to rotate, creating galaxies and stars. Some atoms, such as lithium, appeared as dust particles. As dust particles formed and gravitated toward each other, they created planets.
The Big Bang took place sometime 10-22 billion years ago, and Earth first formed around 4 billion years ago. The history of life on Earth began soon after it was formed, around 3.7 billion years ago. However, humans did not appear until much later, ~6 million-500,000 years ago, a tiny fraction of the history of life (~0.16%, this is because a billion is much, much larger than a million!).
Some day, the universe will end. This is estimated to occur extremely far in the future, in an event called the "Heat Death". When this happens, the universe will have expanded so much, that all matter will be equalized. It is estimated to occur in (17 followed by 106 zeroes) years in the future (also written as 1.7*10^106 years.).
Physicists believe that an even longer time after the end of the universe (~10^10^10^56 years), another universe could randomly appear.
