ST. PAUL, Minn. (4/23/2012) —Approximately 70 percent of the seed soybeans planted this year in Minnesota will be treated with fungicides.

Consider the following in Haskell:
let p x = x ++ show x in putStrLn $ p"let p x = x ++ show x in putStrLn $ p"
Evaluate this expression in an interactive Haskell session and it prints itself out.

Principles of Design
Balance in design is similar to balance in physics. A large shape close to the center can be balanced by a small shape close to the edge. A large light toned shape will be balanced by a small dark toned shape (the darker the shape the heavier it appears to be)

What is Fluorescence?
Fluorescence is the ability of certain chemicals to give off visible light after absorbing radiation which is not normally visible, such as ultraviolet light. This property has led to a variety of uses. Let’s shed some further light on this topic; consider the omnipresent “fluorescent” lights.
