1. These Particles Exist in Kogut-Susskind Varieties. One Type
1. These particles exist in Kogut-Susskind varieties. One type of this particle can emerge as a Bogoliubov quasiparticle in superconducting materials and is named for Ettore Majorana. An atomic “condensate” version of these particles was created by a team led by Deborah S. Jin in 2003. The nucleus of a carbon-13 atom and baryons and leptons are these types of particles that follow Fermi-Dirac statistics and obey the Pauli Exclusion Principle. For ten points, name these particles that differ from bosons because of their half-odd integer spin. Answer = Fermions 2. One sect of these people that lived above the “Wild Fields” were known as the Zaporozhians. These people signed the Pereyaslav Agreement as well as a treaty with Emperor Rudolf II in the 1590s. Stenka Razin led an army of them. A five-year siege of Orenburg was done by one of these people named Yemelyan Pugachev. Their leaders were known as “atamans” and “hetmans” and these Orthodox Christian people commonly lived near the Dnieper and Don rivers. For ten points, name these Slavic nomadic warriors who lived in 19th century Russia. Answer = Cossacks 3. One novel by this author that takes place in Tarbox, Massachusetts includes the nuclear physicist John Ong. Another novel by this author sees Tristão Raposo give a stolen ring from an American tourist to Isabel Leme. This author of Couples and Brazil also wrote a novel that sees a 26-year-old former high school basketball star who’s married to Janice have an affair with Ruth Leonard and sell MagiPeelers. -

Ambassador Boudewijn J. van Eenennaam Permanent Representative Netherlands Mission to the UN Office in Geneva 31-33 Avenue Giuseppe Motta CH-1202 Genève Re : Invitation to a Meeting Dear Ambassador van Eenennaam In the last three years, I have organised a series of meetings on “Sharing Knowledge Across the Mediterranean“. The purpose is to get together scientists and engineers from the developped North and the developping South and East of the Mediterranean in order to facilitate contacts leading to concrete projects for a sustainable development. My experience from CERN (where I was Director of Research 1981-87) is that scientists have a common language and purpose and will work together whatever their difference in origin, religion or philosopy. What was effective during the Cold War to bridge the East-West gap should now be devoted to a North South dialogue in order to avoid a “Clash of Civilisations“. The first meeting in the series was held in Geneva in 2004 for the 50th Anniversary of CERN. The 2005 meeting took place in Casablanca and the 2006 edition was hosted by the Abdus Salam Institute (ICTP) in Trieste. Because these meetings were so successful, I have created a Foundation last November to develop and sustain them. Our next planned activity will be focused on a problem of acute interest : the common management of water resources between Israel, Jordan and the Palestinian Authority, in particular through implementing the Red Sea- Dead Sea Water Conveyance project. -
Discours De Robert Klapisch
Réponse de Robert Klapisch au discours de l’Ambassadeur Mattei lui remettant la médaille d’officier de la Légion d’Honneur. Le 9 novembre 2007 Excellence, Monsieur le Directeur Général, Cher Carlo Rubbia, Chers Amis, Merci Monsieur l’Ambassadeur pour vos paroles qui me remplissent d’émotion. Merci aussi à vous tous d’être venus, et certains de fort loin, pour être à mes côtés en ce jour où je suis honoré– pour la deuxième fois– par la République. Vous venez de citer, avec une éloquence dont je vous sais gré infiniment, ce qu’ont été les étapes de ma carrière. Ôserais-je le rappeler, une carrière se construit au fil du temps, on ne se rend pas toujours compte soi-même de l’enchaînement des perspectives. Le grand honneur qui m’est fait aujourd’hui, est peut-être une occasion de prendre du recul et de réfléchir aux motivations qui ont été les miennes durant ce parcours. Chercheur, j’ai d’abord connu les joies ineffables de la recherche et de la découverte. On sait aujourd’hui que les éléments chimiques de la matière qui nous entoure ont été formés au cours de la vie d’étoiles mortes depuis longtemps. Nous sommes tous des fossiles! Mon grain de sel dans cette cuisine cosmique, c’est d’avoir contribué à résoudre l’énigme des éléments légers très rares que sont le Lithium, le Beryllium et le Bore qui n’existent que par une sorte de miracle. Par la suite, les mêmes instruments nous ont permis de découvrir des noyaux bizarres, que j’ai appelé “exotiques”, comme le lithium 11 ou le sodium 35 qui comprennent deux fois ou trois fois plus de neutrons que de protons. -

THE ART of the DEAL Growth Was Strongest at 10%
TUESDAY, 13 NOVEMBER 2018 dealers at the very highest end (sales over $50 million), sales THE ART OF THE DEAL growth was strongest at 10%. No matter the market it seems, the luxury buyers we need to attract want quality trophy assets and that's where returns are made for investors. We don't have to look far for an example. Modigliani may never have risen to Group 1 heights when racing in John Magnier's colours but little did we know, Modigliani still had a win in him for John. John Magnier bought his masterpiece Nu CouchJ (Sur Le C^tJ Gauche) for $26.9 million in 2003, stared lovingly at it on his wall for 15 years, and then sold it this year for $157.2 million. Even No Nay Never's stud fee has not appreciated as much. Who knew that the best pinhook of 2018 actually took place in Sotheby's? In uncertain times for racing, what art can teach us is where to go to attract further global demand for our luxury product. Unsurprisingly, for fresh investment to drive growth, we need to go east. In 2006, Asia made up less than 5% of global buyers. >Girl With Balloon= transformed into >Love is in the Bin= | Getty Images Today, Sotheby's report that Asian buyers account for more than 35% of their global sales by value, and the amount they by Jack Cantillon spend has increased by 50% in the past five years alone.
