Alakananda river (one of the Ganges sources)
"From the cold quay of the Seine to the fiery banks of the Ganges, the
mortal herd gambols and falls in a faint, without seeing, through a cloven
ceiling, the ominous flare of the Angel's trump, alongside a black
blunderbuss.
"In every clime, under any sun, Death admires you in your
contortions, ludicrous Mankind, and often, like you, scenting himself
with myrrh, mixes his irony with your madness!"
Danse Macabre by Charles Baudelaire
---------------------------------------------
Des quais froid de la Seine aux bords brûlants du Gange,
Le troupeau mortel saute et se pâme, sans voir
Dans un trou du plafond la trompette de l'Ange
Sinistrement béante ainsi qu'un tromblon noir.
« En tout climat, sous tout soleil, la Mort t'admire
En tes contorsions, risible Humanité,
Et souvent comme toi, se parfumant de myrrhe,
Mêle son ironie à ton insanité! »

Harwell Science and Innovation Campus
Diamond Light Source
The UK’s national synchrotron science facility.
Diamond Light Source Ltd was established in 2002 as a not-for-profit joint venture funded by the UK Government, through the Science & Technology Facilities Council, in partnership with the Wellcome Trust. The UK Government own 86% and the Wellcome Trust own 14%.
The Synchrotron
It works like a giant microscope, harnessing the power of electrons to produce bright light that scientists can use to study anything from fossils to jet engines, viruses and vaccines.
The machine accelerates electrons to near light speeds so that they give off light 10 billion times brighter than the sun. These bright beams are then directed off into laboratories known as ‘beamlines’. Here, scientists use the light to study a vast range of subject matter, from new medicines and treatments for disease to innovative engineering and cutting-edge technology.
Whether it’s fragments of ancient paintings or unknown virus structures, at the synchrotron, scientists can study their samples using a machine that is 10,000 times more powerful than a traditional microscope.
Diamond is one of the most advanced scientific facilities in the world, and its pioneering capabilities are helping to keep the UK at the forefront of scientific research.
The synchrotron is free at the point of access through a competitive application process, provided that the results are in the public domain.
Over 7000 researchers from both academia and industry use Diamond to conduct experiments. They are assisted by approximately 500 staff.

NARANJA ‘BLANCA DE MAYAJIGUA’
Otros nombres vulgares: naranja blanca.
Nombre científico: Citrus spp.
Familia: Rutaceae.
Origen: híbrido natural interespecífico, oriundo de la parte norte de la provincia de
Sancti Spíritus (Cuba).
Este árbol es un clon altamente productivo y se cosecha en los patios durante muchos
meses, por lo cual es una excelente planta para un huerto casero. Se asume que es un
híbrido natural entre naranja de China (Citrus sinensis) y toronja (Citrus paradisi),
propagado en la zona de Mayajigua, Yaguajay. Sus frutos apenas son ácidos, por lo cual
son recomendables para personas que padezcan de hiperacidez.

Mayajigua White Orange
....
Highly productive tree usually growing in family yards it yields over several months in a row making it an excellent plant for the orchard.
Though not clear, it is believed this "species" is a natural occurring hybrid between common orange (Citrus sinensis) and grapefruit (Citrus paradisi), it was first discovered in the Mayajigua area, near Yaguajay city,
These orange is barely acidic, which make it ideal for people with super-acidity (stomach burn) issues.

Fermilab Antiproton Source
The antiproton is the antiparticle of the proton. Antiprotons are stable, but they are typically short-lived since any collision with a proton will cause both particles to be annihilated in a burst of energy.
The existence of the antiproton with −1 electric charge, opposite to the +1 electric charge of the proton, was predicted by Paul Dirac in his 1933 Nobel Prize lecture. Dirac received the Nobel Prize for his previous 1928 publication of his Dirac Equation that predicted the existence of positive and negative solutions to the Energy Equation (E = mc^2) of Einstein and the existence of the positron, the antimatter analog to the electron, with positive charge and opposite spin.
The antiproton was experimentally confirmed in 1955 by University of California, Berkeley physicists Emilio Segrè and Owen Chamberlain, for which they were awarded the 1959 Nobel Prize in Physics. An antiproton consists of two up antiquark and one down antiquark (uud). The properties of the antiproton that have been measured all match the corresponding properties of the proton, with the exception that the antiproton has opposite electric charge and magnetic moment than the proton. The question of how matter is different from antimatter remains an open problem, in order to explain how our universe survived the Big Bang and why so little antimatter exists today.

Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swan
Swans are birds of the family Anatidae within the genus Cygnus. The swans' close relatives include the geese and ducks. Swans are grouped with the closely related geese in the subfamily Anserinae where they form the tribe Cygnini. Sometimes, they are considered a distinct subfamily, Cygninae. There are six or seven living (and one extinct) species of swan in the genus Cygnus; in addition, there is another species known as the coscoroba swan, although this species is no longer considered one of the true swans. Swans usually mate for life, although “divorce” sometimes occurs, particularly following nesting failure, and if a mate dies, the remaining swan will take up with another. The number of eggs in each clutch ranges from three to eight.

"Newcastle students' quiz victories
The University’s representatives look set for a good year in the University Challenge following two recent victories.
The students defeated a team of teaching staff by a big margin in their final practice match at the union before facing the University of New South Wales at Kensington.
In a nail-bitting finish, Newcastle and UNSW tied on 220 points each at the end of half an hour. Neither team could answer the first tie-breaking question, and another one was called for. Newcastle got in first, to defeat the strong UNSW side.
Without television support this year, University Challenge has become a lunch-time entertainment on several campuses and five Universities – New South Wales, Sydney, Macquarie, Wollongong and Newcastle – have organised their own competition.
Newcastle has an enthusiastic squad, but the pressure of exams forced a number of players to miss the day-long trip to Kensington on October 18. The first-choice team, how was intact.
Last year’s captain, Mr Mark Priest, a second-year Science student, led the team again. Mr Noel Leggatt, who is studying modern languages, also cam from last year’s side, which made the finals of the televised national competition.
They were joined by Mr Stuart Cooper (second year Mathematics and Computing Science) and Mr Keith Joseph (second year Medicine),
In their only practice together before the competition, the students faced a team led by Professor Frank Bates – who was captain of Sheffield University’s team in 1966.
Professor Bates and his colleagues, Associate Professor Colin Keay, Associate Professor Norman Talbot and Professor Ian Plimer, found the students too quick.
Mr Priest said later the practice match had been invaluable.
“The academics knew the answers all right, but we had all had too much practice on the buzzer system. They just couldn’t get in fast enough.
“It gave us a lot confidence for the match at Kensington because it was the first time Noel and I had played with Stuart and Keith.
“New South Wales had three of last year’s four players back again, so they were not only very strong but also experienced in the pressures of sitting on stage in front of a noisy audience and using the buzzers.
“Officially, in this first round, all that counts is how many points you score. “But a tie was such a let-down after such a tense game that both sides felt we should play a tie-breaker to satisfy the audience. We knew we were strong enough to win, and we did it”.
Newcastle’s second and final match in the first round of the competition was at to Wollongong on Friday, October 26. The Professors were generous enough to line up again to provide the team with more practice.
Semi-finals of the competition are being held at Macquarie University, with Sydney the proposed venue for the final."
