Ken Haar | Legislative tenure | climate change on the state. An amendment by Beau McCoy added "cyclical" before "climate change"; McCoy, who expressed disbelief in anthropogenic climate change, stated that this would remove politics from the bill. The measure passed by a margin of 32–12 and was signed by governor Heineman. When the Nebraska Department of Agriculture issued its request for information for the study, it interpreted the amended phrasing as excluding human-caused changes, an interpretation to which Haar took strong exception, appearing on The Rachel Maddow Show to say so. Eventually, the study was cancelled, after the University of Nebraska–Lincoln |

The Tengabisi and other Mossi peoples do not share these origin myths.

With Mad World's again-resurgent popularity, I'm getting asked more frequently about the last line on the album version from The Hurting, a line which I occasionally also sing in concert. The actual line is: "Halargian world." (Not "illogical world", "raunchy young world", "enlarging your world", or a number of other interesting if not amusing guesses.) The real story: Halarge was an imaginary planet invented by either Chris Hughes or Ross Cullum during the recording of The Hurting. I added it as a joke during the lead vocal session, and we kept it.

Lithium iridate | Structure & Synthesis | Lithium iridate Structure Li₂IrO₃ typically crystallizes in the α or β phase, and a rare γ phase has been reported. The crystal structure of α-Li₂IrO₃ consists of an alternate stacking of hexagonal Li layers and honeycombs of edge-sharing IrO₆ octahedra with Li in the center. The offset in adjacent layers results in a relatively low (monoclinic) crystal symmetry. Li₂IrO₃ crystals have abundant twinning defects where the ab crystal planes are rotated by 120° around the c axis. Synthesis Li₂IrO₃ crystals can be grown by direct sintering of Ir and Li metals, which both oxidize during heating in ambient atmosphere. The |

While appreciating principles of liberalism as an ideology that emphasised liberation, Rosselli was deeply disappointed with liberalism as a system that he described as having been used by the bourgeoisie to support their privileges while neglecting the liberation components of liberalism as an ideology and thus viewed conventional liberalism as a system that had merely become an ideology of "bourgeois capitalism". At the same time, Rosselli appreciated socialism as an ideology, but he was also deeply disappointed with conventional socialism as a system. In response to his disappointment with conventional socialism in practice, Roselli declared: "The recent |
