The best toys focus a child’s attention on the activity, not the thing.
This subtle insight comes from Kim John Payne, author of Simplicity Parenting — a book that we sometimes find ourselves re-reading as we strive to simplify our own lives and re-focus our family’s collective attention on what is true, beautiful, and good (while stripping away all the excess noise).
As we think about it, our kids’ favorite toys really do focus their attention more on the activity and less on the actual toy itself. We cherish the toys that entertain our kids for long uninterrupted stretches; the toys that make us parents grateful; the toys that add value, not clutter, to our lives.
Take bikes, for instance. Our kids have always loved bike riding — from their first few tentative steps on their balance bikes to their confident riding on their pedal bikes. We explore the neighborhood, cruise down our neighbor’s gently inclined driveway over and over, and bike to the park and farmer’s market.
Their bikes become the vehicle — quite literally — through which our kids explore. They are focused on pumping their little legs (“Mommy, do you think I’m as fast as the speed of light?”) and enjoying the thrill and freedom of being on two wheels.
As makers of merino wool children’s wear, we identify with the maxim that a well-made product focuses attention on the activity, not the thing. For this reason, we design clothing that lets you and your child focus on life’s important activities.
Our merino long johns are the coziest softest pajamas while also being a temperature-regulating base layer for winter’s outdoor fun. Designed for cozy sleeping and active play, our long johns allow kids to go from activity to activity without missing a beat.
In our estimation, the best clothes focus a child’s attention on the activity, not the thing. Here’s to celebrating that which is true, beautiful and good in your family’s life.

The Senate approved the Employment Non-Discrimination Act with a bipartisan vote of 64-32 today, marking the first time the bill to prohibit workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity has passed the Senate in 17 years of deliberation.
In a sign of rapidly shifting opinions on gay rights, every member of the Senate Democratic caucus was joined by 10 Republican senators to approve the measure. The first time the Senate voted on a measure similar to ENDA, in 1996, Sens. Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah) and John McCain (R-Ariz.) voted no. On Thursday they voted yes.
“This is the right thing to do,” McCain told reporters shortly before he cast his vote.
The bill faces a hard road in the GOP-controlled House of Representatives, where Speaker John Boehner has already expressed his opposition. The House previously passed a version of the bill in 2007 that excluded transgender protections, but it was rejected by the Senate.
A win for the good guys.
Very good. It should have been 100-0, a majority vote is still very good.
While I do applaud the Democrat majority and the 10 Republicans who passed this bill, I believe ENDA in its present diluted form should be abandoned until the next elections, when it is hoped a Democrat Congress will approve it without all its gutting Republican exemptions.
The President is right not to force ENDA into law by Executive Order. This must come from the people so as to avoid widespread civil disobedience annihilating its effectiveness. Moreover an Executive Order can be too easily overtuned by an incoming Republican presidency.
This strategy was effectively employed by President Obama in the repeal of DADT, where he preferred to let the reform go to Congress, where it passed comfortably, was ratified by the Senate with the approval of over 70% of the general population and the military themselves. There’s not a Republican anywhere now who would have a snowball’s chance in hell of reinstating DADT.
The same goes for ENDA. It’s been too long in the making now to be defanged into a toothless tiger.
Frankly, my reaction to this news is a big, “So what?”. It has zero chance of getting through the House thanks to partisan politics.
Just can’t get excited about a vote that the politicians all know is purely symbolic.
Discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is clearly unconstitutional. But since the constitution is only used when it fits certain peoples ideologies or is convenient to conservatives. I won’t hold my breath. Isn’t there something in it about separation of church and state? I can’t recall. I guess that is not uncommon.

Education: Orca believe in empowering our readers and explaining financial terms in an easy straight to the point way. We understand that half the battle is understanding the concepts, our mantra is not just to take your money and not teach you but to educate you, this website is built on the value of taking complex financial terms and breaking them down for all of us to understand, consider this the Orca language.
Financial literacy is a major problem in the United States according to Forbes “Only 57% of Americans are financially literate.” That is based off understanding terms like; inflation, interest and diversification. We are ranked 14th in the world in financial literacy behind countries like Norway and Germany. And finally we have movies like “Wolf of Wall Street” and the “The Big Short”, that show how corrupt the industry is. The problem is that the financial industry uses complex terms that confuse the average American, and the average American often gets sick to their stomachs when they think about money.
A lot of due to a lack of financial literacy. Once you feel comfortable understanding the terms that are being used and how things like compound interest and taxes work, then you can feel empowered about your finances. (YAY NO MORE SICK FEELING) We here at Orca want to help empower our clients and readers when it comes to finance and we plan on taking a unique approach to educating our consumers by explaining terms in everyday concepts that we all can relate to.
Finally, if you want a topic explained or to challenge us here at Orca, send us a message here, and we will address your topic and break it down in the Orca Language for you.

It may be noted that the point symbol in the binary system may be called as the binary point. In general, this may be designated as radix point.
Just as we divided a decimal whole number by the factor 2 to get its binary-equivalent whole number, to get the corresponding binary fraction we multiply decimal fraction also by 2. If the product of each number is greater than 1, we put a 1 below that number; otherwise we put a 0 as shown in Table 1.2.
Example 4: Convert decimal fraction 0.875 into its equivalent binary fraction.
Solution: Following the directions given above, we first draw the decimal fraction-to-binary fraction conversion table as illustrated in Table 1.2. One point to be remembered here is that multiplication of fractional part by 2 must be conducted from left-to-right (for the integral part, division by 2 has to be done from right-to-left as described in Example 3).
It can be seen that the multiplication operation stops at the third position on the right because the remainder at this point is 0. If the remainder is not 0, then multiplication by 2 must continue up to that point where the remainder becomes 0. However, if the remainder does not become 0, then we get a continued fraction. This is illustrated in the next example.
Example 5: Convert the decimal fraction 0.862 into its equivalent binary fraction.
Two methods are used for converting decimal numbers to their equivalent binary numbers.
Example 1: Convert (25)10 into equivalent binary number.
Solution: The procedure using division is illustrated in Fig.1.1. In this, we divide the given number repeatedly by 2. In each division, if the number is exactly divisible by 2, we put a 0 as remainder against the number on its right-hand side. If the number is not exactly divisible by 2, we put a 1 as the remainder. We proceed like this up to the last digit, as shown in Fig. 1.1. We then read upwards, in the direction of the arrow shown to get the required binary number.
Example 2: Convert decimal numbers (a) 221 and (b) 10120 into equivalent binary numbers.
Solution: Instead of going into long division process, a very easy and simple method of decimal-to- binary conversion is given below.
where we have substituted 0s in the places of 32 and 2, respectively, as these two numbers are absent in the summation.
This is an extension of the fist method explained illustrated in Example 1.
Example 3: Convert decimal number (83)10 into its binary equivalent by the tabulation method.
Solution: In this method, we first prepare Table 1.1, which is the decimal-to-binary conversion table. Table 1.1 has 7 columns (this number depends on the number of divisions we have to perform and 4 rows (fixed).
In Table 1.1, the first step is to enter the decimal number to be converted into binary (in this case 83) into Column 1 of Row 1 as shown. The second step is to enter the radix of the number system to which conversion is required into all the columns of Row 2. Here, conversion is required into the binary system and hence its radix 2 is entered into all the columns of Row 2, as stated.
The third step is to divide 83 by radix number 2. We notice that 83 is not fully divisible by 2. 83 divided by 2 yields 42 as quotient and 1 as remainder. These are the respective entries in column 1 of Rows 3 and 4. Summarizing the operations described above, we find that the entry under Column 1, Row 1 is 83, Row 2 is 2, Row 3 is 42, and Row 4 is 1.
The next step is to enter number 42, the quotient of the first division, into Column 2, Row 1 as shown in Table 1.1. Proceeding as above, 42 is divided by radix 2. This operation yields a quotient of 21, and a remainder of 0; we enter 21 in Row 3 and 0 in Row 4 under Column 2 of table 1.1, as shown. In the table, we have used slashed arrows to indicate the transfer of quotient numbers and vertical arrows to denote the direction of division operation. For example, the first and rightmost slashed arrow indicates the transfer of the first quotient number 42 to Column-2, Row-1 cell, as shown in Table 1.1. The first vertical arrow 1 indicates that division of 83 by 2 gives 42 as the quotient and 1 as the remainder. These vertical transfers are also shown in Table 1.1.
We find that 42 becomes the next (second) entry to be divided by radix 2. The division yields the quotient as 21 and remainder as 0, since 42 is fully divisible by 2. As the next step, we divide 21 by 2 in Column 3. The results of this and subsequent operations described above are indicated in Table 1.1. We stop the division and associated operations in Column 7 (for this problem) when the remainder becomes 1 and no further division is possible.
Hexadecimal number system uses 16 as its base or radix. The basic elements of this system consist of digits from 0 to 9 and alphabets A, B, C, D, E, and F. Letter A to F are assigned with values of 10 to 15. Thus A ≡ 10, B ≡ 11, C ≡ 12, D ≡ 13, E ≡ 14, and F ≡ 15. In terms of binary equivalents, A ≡ 1010, B ≡ 1011, C ≡ 1100, D ≡1101, E ≡ 1110, and F ≡ 1111. Hexadecimal system is used in microprocessors and microcontrollers to write their operating codes (op-codes). Since there are sixteen basic numbers to play with, instructions using hex are more compact than those the using decimal or binary number systems.
Example: Convert (249)10 to hex.
The 9’s-complement pairs in this family are (0,9), (1,8), (2,7), (3,6) and (4,5), respectively, since the sum of the numbers in each bracket amounts to 9. We also get the 10’s complements by adding +1 to the 9’s complements. For example, 4 is the 10’s complement of 6.
The procedure given above can be used to convert any binary number into its corresponding decimal number.
Modern digital technology is dependent entirely upon the binary number system, which has only two elements, viz., 0 and 1, in it. However, we are more familiar with decimal number system, which has ten basic elements (0 to 9) in it. In this chapter, we discuss the principles of various number systems that we commonly come across in various contexts. The discussion begins with the decimal number system. This is followed by the binary, octal, and hexadecimal number systems.
where digits 1, 2, and 3 are the coefficients of the appropriate powers of ten (i.e., 102, 101, and 100, respectively). Larger numbers can be expressed in similar fashion by writing them as coefficients of the powers of ten. In fact, in any number system, numbers are expressed as coefficients of appropriate powers of the radix of the system.
We proceed in a similar fashion, as given above. This is shown in Fig.1.3.
Example: Convert the decimal number 1234 into its equivalent octal number.
Solution: Figure 1.9 shows a conversion table prepared on the basis of the steps shown in Fig. 1.8.

For many financial planning and analysis (FP&A) professionals, multiple challenges lie ahead. FP&A departments are under ever greater stress to deliver high quality information to senior management to make strategic, operational, and tactical decisions.
Yet the professionals in these departments are often having to work with limited resources – including outdated technology – because there is simply not enough investment in the FP&A function.
As a result, these professionals are relying on a traditional planning culture that is not always up to the task at hand – with often limited data quality.
Part of the issue is that on the one hand senior management teams are having to address an ever more complex and challenging world, where the best possible insights are required for making effective decisions.
That’s because as the external environment grows more uncertain, financial volatility increases and the markets become even more competitive, disrupted by new technologies, new business models and the digitisation of the economy.
On the other hand, however, the FP&A professionals at the sharp end of bringing those insights to the top tier are being stymied by legacy systems that limit the quality of information available, and therefore the quality of the management team’s decision-making.
This is partly because the capability of the tools available has outstripped the time needed for analysts to master them. The result of this is that Excel and the rest of the Office suite of products continues to be the tool of choice for routine reporting, even where significant investments have been made in planning software, as well as business intelligence (BI) software.
It is also because there is an abundance of advice on what to measure, but relatively little guidance given on how to analyse the results and communicate them in an effective way.
Many FP&A professionals will agree that one of the main challenges ahead is the need for improved forecasting, with many companies seeking a real-time forecast of its performance. With that comes the need to streamline and optimise the forecasting process to reduce cycle times, enhance agility and flexibility, and improve the company’s ability to proactively address changing market conditions.
There is also an onus on driving greater ownership and accountability for key operational business drivers and establishing a driver-based, rolling forecast process.
Another key challenge is understanding how to use analytical/cognitive tools to automate and increase efficiency. The goal is to ensure that FP&A spends less time on the reconciliation of financial performance data and more time on analysis.
In that regard, FP&A will have to find its role relative to this development and how it can help organisations to deal with the data overload by incorporating more advanced analytics into regular planning and decision-making activities.
It also needs to consider leveraging business acumen to identify opportunities where analytics can drive performance, and harnessing big data and more advanced and accessible modelling techniques.
Failure to put these opportunities in place can lead to any number of negative outcomes. There might be forecasting errors that can arise when people collaborating inside a large organisation confuse versions, miss important data, or place heavy burdens on data collection.
Some of these elements may result from an ability to achieve a unified view of data, which may result from using out-dated technology. Without certainty, it becomes difficult to consolidate inputs from multiple sources that can be analysed and communicated in a form that can be understood and respected by decision-makers.
Along with the need to develop better technology comes the requirement to develop a workforce that is tech-enabled with the new digital equipment available. That means finding people that can harness advanced analytics tools so that finance departments can generate more accurate and reliable forecasts.
Despite the recognised value of good information for decision-makers, there has been a finite amount of enthusiasm for investing in the necessary staff to create tech-enabled FP&A professionals.
Instead of nurturing talent, many companies have hired from peers to build out their team. As a result, the talent pool of good FP&A professionals is not growing – leading to shrinkage if anything – as competition comes from other internal teams that are interested in skills such as database querying and data mining.
So it leads to the question of how FP&A professionals can develop their skills with the technology available, such as becoming better business partners capable of providing more advanced analytics through implementing techniques like visualisation and predictive modelling.
With the right technology and skill sets to harness the capability on offer, FP&A professionals can provide meaningful and reliable information to support decision-making in a fast changing environment.
By co-ordinating with other departments and functions, as well as external sources, they can deliver analysis when and where decision makers need them. FP&A professionals can expand their roles to deliver on all these expectations, provided they have the means to do so.

Answer: Thank you for your question. I must apologize. I really don't know. World wide, I found 2 million people practicing.
However, I know many people quit after registering to their federation so we probably have no idea exactly how many people do kendo in the world after all.
Sorry that I could not help you there.

Kate's House is an area in Slender: The Arrival. Kate's house is first explored in Part 1: Prologue, and revisited again in Part 4: Flashback. The first time the house is visited, the area is relatively safe. The next time around, the place becomes much more dangerous.
The house is two floors, and contains a garage, as well as an outdoor swing set and playground.
The layout of the house will not change in subsequent playthroughs, though in Part 4: Flashback, the windows all over the house will be randomly closed or open. There are also three doors that lead outside: The front door, the garage door, and the kitchen door.
From the front entrance, there are 6 rooms on the first floor, including the garage. To the left of the front entrance (looking up the stairs) is the TV room. To the right is the dining room.
Beyond the TV room is the family room. Both the family room and dining room connect to the kitchen, which includes an area for the kitchen table. A short hallway at the end of the kitchen leads to the garage door, with a bathroom on the opposite side of the hall. Going up the stairs, to the left is the master bedroom and master bathroom. to the right is a long hallway that includes 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, and finally Kate's room at the end of the hall.
Kate's house lies on the edge of the woods that include Oakside Park, the area in which Slenderman was sighted. The house itself possibly belonged to Kate's mother - who may have been Beth Hayes before she died, leaving Kate alone with the house. Lauren and Kate used to play on the swings when they were little, and it is also assumed that Kate and CR would play near the house a well, often exploring the nearby forests.

Question: How many words constitute a fictional short story? Not a short, short story but a short story.
Answer: Generally, a short story is any story under 7,500 words. Anything under 1,000 words is often termed flash fiction.
However, these definitions are not fixed. Sometimes works up to 20,000 words have been called short stories. You have to check with individual publishers (such as literary magazines, websites, contests, etc.) to see what length of stories they are looking for and what terms they are using to describe them (e.g. micro-fiction, novelette, novella, postcard fiction).
At the extreme lower end there are also "six word memoirs," such as this famous one attributed to Hemingway: "For sale: baby shoes. Never worn."

Darlington Cycling Campaign has been awarded one of just three New Ideas Fund to build on the work of the Beauty and the Bike project. The Campaign’s submission is for a bike pool of the kind of dutch-style bikes that are proving so popular amongst young women who want to cycle. With funding for between 60 and 100 bikes, and support staff to promote the bike pool in workplaces, colleges and schools, the aim is to kick-start a cycling culture in the town that is more attractive to women in particular.
The documentary Beauty and the Bike, which will be premiered in Darlington Arts Centre on Wednesday 9th December, found that peer group culture is an important barrier to young women cycling. But where small groups got together to start using stylish bikes, the barriers began to crumble.
The Campaign also hopes that a growing culture of gentle cycling in the town will lead to better quality infrastructure. As one of the Beauty and the Bike girls said, “We’re getting the lovely bikes, we’ve got the lovely girls to ride them. Now we are looking forward to the lovely cycle paths”.

The bride and groom, both hailing from families rich in farming heritage, met in their dairy science class in college and the rest is history! The talented team at Engaged & Inspired helped Courtney and Matt honor their love of the earth and farming with personal touches like a “milk toast” and an incredibly gorgeous reception at Holman Ranch. We’re obsessed with the florals by Gavita Flora bright pink bougainvilleas, coral peonies, huge protea and orange kumquats. Check out all the lush details in these images from Kara Miller Photography.
Courtney and Matt’s romantic celebration in Carmel was absolutely breathtaking in every way! Their ceremony took place at the picturesque Carmel Mission Basilica, and afterward they celebrated the night away at Holman Ranch in Carmel Valley. Courtney and Matt’s wedding was full of fun surprises – like a marching live brass band that led the bridal party into the reception! They also incorporated a lot of personal touches throughout the wedding that honored their families’ rich histories rooted in love for the earth and farming. I also loved all of the pops of vibrant color throughout the day. Some of my favorite details included the gorgeous emerald green bridesmaids dresses and the spectacular florals by Gavita Flora with bright pink bougainvilleas, coral peonies and orange kumquats.
Courtney custom-designed her dress with the help of Mia Bella Couture to include a dramatic backless shape. Apparently, the designer loved the customizations so much that they will be offering the gown, named after Courtney, in her next collection!
Both Courtney and Matt’s families have a rich heritage in dairy farming. As a tribute to their families and their roots, they had a “milk toast” after all of the speeches were given at the reception. Toasting flutes filled with milk were passed around to all the guests, and an enthusiastic “Cheers!” was shared by all. Courtney also changed into her cowboy boots for the reception to dance the night away with a live band inside the barn.
One of my favorite parts of the day was right after Courtney and Matt were announced as husband and wife at the ceremony. After they were introduced, Matt put on his new custom made cowboy hat (a gift from Courtney given to him earlier that morning), and he beamed from ear to ear as they walked out of the church. It was a great way to incorporate their fun-loving personalities into the ceremony!
Tell us how they met and became engaged.
Courtney and Matt met in a dairy science class in college, and from the very beginning they knew they were meant for each other. Matt proposed to Courtney on a trip to Italy, where Matt joined Courtney to extend her business trip into a romantic vacation. The proposal came as a complete surprise to Courtney, as he popped the question right in the middle of a tour!

Oscar buys 13 pencils and 3 erasers for 1.00. A pencil costs more than an eraser, and both items cost a whole number of cents. What is the total cost, in cents, of one pencil and one eraser?

Oscar buys 13 pencils and 3 erasers for 1.00. A pencil costs more than an eraser, and both items cost a whole number of cents. What is the total cost, in cents, of one pencil and one eraser?
In order for (100 - 13p) to be a multiple of 3, we need to have p = 1, 4, 7, etc.
If p = 1, then e = 87/3 = 29 (but this is not possible since a pencil costs more than an eraser).
If p = 4, then e = 48/3 = 16 (again this is not possible).
If p = 7, then e = 9/3 = 3 (this is possible).
If p = 10, then e = -30/3 = -10 (this is not possible since e can’t be negative, so we can stop here).
Thus, the total cost of one pencil and one eraser is 7 + 3 = 10 cents.
Since the cost of a pencil must be a whole number, in cents, and since 3 is not divisible by 10, we see that n (the cost of one pencil and one eraser) must be a multiple of 10. We can eliminate all answer choices except A and E.
If n = 20, then p = 10 - (3*20)/10 = 10 - 6 = 4 cents and an eraser is 20 - 4 = 16 cents, which is not possible because we are given that the cost of a pencil is greater than the cost of an eraser.
If n = 10, then p = 10 - (3*10)/10 = 10 - 3 = 7 and e = 10 - 7 = 3. So, the cost of one pencil is 7 cents, and the cost of one eraser is 3 cents, which agrees with the information given in the question.

Our AP Chem class has been given an equilibrium problem using the ICE method. We have worked out the answer, but compared to the supplied "correct answer" are coming up doubled...Can you help us understand where we have gone wrong? PROBLEM: Find the K for the reaction: 2 CO(g) + O2(g) <-> 2 CO2(g) if initially there are 5.0 moles of CO, 10.0 moles of O2, and 1.0 mole of CO2 in a 2.0 L container and at equilibrium CO2 has a concentration of 2.5 mol/L. When working the ICE, we determine that x = 1 which when plugged back into the Kc expression gives us (2.5)squared over [(.5)squared times 4]. This gives us a Kc value of 6.25 but our answer key tells us that the answer should be 3.125. We are wondering, isn't the K value independent of the number of liters, and thus our answer should not be divided by 2? Where are we going wrong? Thanks for your chemical knowledge and willingness to share!
I do know that both O2 and CO are pretty reactive, and that CO2 is not, so I would think that the equilibrium would strongly favor the CO2 over the O2 and CO. I don't know how your numbers will work, though.

How long would it take to fly anywhere on Earth using a SpaceX rocket?
How long would it take to fly anywhere on Earth using a SpaceX rocket?
Answer: less than an hour.
Before he gets us to Mars, Elon Musk wants to get us anywhere on Earth in under an hour.
At Friday’s International Astronautical Conference, the CEO of SpaceX revealed the company’s plans for its largest airborne vehicle yet, the BFR. While originally intended to facilitate SpaceX’s goal of putting humans on Mars by 2024, Musk announced that he also envisions using the rocket for high-speed Earth travel.
The world’s longest flight — from Doha, Qatar, to Auckland, New Zealand — currently takes 16.5 hours. However, with SpaceX’s BFR rocket, flight time would be just 45 minutes.

This exhibition aims to promote discourse on future inhabitation and livelihood, in light of an increasing world population. The world will reach a population of 9.5 billion by 2050 – a 2.25 billion increase within a span of 35 years.

What tech does the Department of Homeland Security want to implement to improve border security?
What tech does the Department of Homeland Security want to implement to improve border security?
Answer: Facial scanning and recognition.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) may be taking a page out of Apple’s book when it comes to identification and security. Apple’s latest and greatest iPhone, the iPhone X, boasts facial recognition technology that will make proving yourself to your phone more convenient than ever — all you have to do is look at it. DHS wants to provide similar levels of convenience to travelers crossing U.S. borders.
“This call is looking for innovative solutions to capture facial recognition quality photos from travelers in order to facilitate identity checks without requiring occupants to leave the vehicle,” said the call for proposals.
DHS’ Silicon Valley office will host an “industry day” on Nov. 14 in order to explore opportunities for making this idea a reality. According to the call for proposals, DHS wants the system to be able to reliably identify occupants of a vehicle even when their faces are obscured by hats or sunglasses, or turned away from the camera.

What is one mile long and can take high-speed images of atoms?
What is one mile long and can take high-speed images of atoms?
Answer: the biggest — and newest — laser gun in the world.
Capable of shooting 27,000 laser pulses per second — which is 200 times more than the second-highest performer, located in California — the European X-ray Free Election Laser (XFEL) will begin operating in September. But before you start imagining a real-life version of the laser scene from the James Bond film Goldfinger, you should know that this laser is not intended to shoot at people.
According to the XFEL website, the laser “will allow scientists to map atomic details of viruses, film chemical reactions, and study the processes in the interior of plants.” By emitting so many tiny, high-energy X-ray pulses, the laser works very much like a movie camera, if movie cameras were capable of capturing high-speed phenomena at the atomic level.
The city of Hamburg, Germany, has been heralding the arrival of the device since Monday by shining five lasers toward its next-door neighbor Schenefeld — the location where the European XFEL will be housed.

Question: How do you write a good novel in which the protagonist has an evil story goal?
Answer: Though they are more rare, there are stories told from the point of view of an immoral or villainous person. Shakespeare's Macbeth is one example. A Clockwork Orange is another.
In first person narration, reading such a story feels like having a mobster mistake you for his best friend. On the one hand, it's flattering to have him share his life story with you, while on the other hand you can mentally step back and pass judgment on his crimes.
Traditionally, villainous protagonists were the subject of tragedies. You read such stories to see how their mistakes and character flaws led to their downfall. Tragedies were lessons on how to not lead your life -- don't be greedy, selfish, overly ambitious, etc.
More problematic are the villainous protagonists who win in the end. Their stories can be disconcerting because they offend our natural sense of moral justice. The thematic message they deliver is a sense that something is wrong with the world (society, the universe, God, etc.). A system that would allow a villain to win must itself be a corrupt and immoral system in need of reform. Such a story is disturbing because people like to draw comfort from the notion that they understand the rules of the world, and that understanding makes the world fair and just. Seeing a villain win destroys that illusion.
So I would suggest you decide what your thematic message will be. Are your writing a tragedy or an indictment of the world?
Next, it helps a lot if you can make your villain appealing. This may mean giving him charm, humour, a backstory that evokes sympathy, flaws that the reader can relate to, or perhaps one or two traits that are admirable.
Consider that Ebenezer Scrooge has his endearing qualities (he enjoyed games and dancing). Even Satan in Paradise Lost comes across as admirable for his championing of individual freedom: "Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven."
Finally, it may help to give your character an inner conflict. Show us either the arc of his downfall or (if he starts out nasty) let him be pressured to reform but ultimately refuse to change.

After watching this @numberphile video I wanted to give it a try.
Then I came up with this piece if python code to try to find a possible 12 iteration sequence.
Just put the prime factors after each other and you have your initial number.
You don’t have to search any further because 222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222 is the first number that when each digit is multiplied is larger than the just found 937638166841712. You get 2^54 = 1,801439851×10¹⁶, which is larger.
Below this number, no numbers are found that create a 12 number sequence.

Use this °F to °C converter to convert temperature values from fahrenheit to celsius where 1 fahrenheit is equal to -17.222222222222 celsius. Enter the temperature value to find how much is degrees celsius in degrees fahrenheit .
Equation : [°C] = ([°F] − 32) × 5⁄9 .
How to Convert Fahrenheit to Celsius.
As we know 1 degrees fahrenheit is equal to -17.222222222222 degrees celsius. So if asked to convert fahrenheit to celsius just substitute the value of fahrenheit in the conversion equation.
Put [°F] = 3, in this formula [°C] = ([°F] − 32) × 5⁄9 and Solve for °C.
After solving we will have our answer as -16.111111111111 celsius.

I love that you put in a third, just to be accurate about it!
Well, it should be 33.3333333333333333333333333 repeating to infinity, but that would be harder to draw. And take, you know, longer.
Lovely work, great number accomplished! You are a wonder!
Thanks, Thom & Leila. That was pretty left-brain of me, wasn’t it?

A variable is a quantity that has a changing value; the value can vary from one example to the next. A continuous variable is a variable that has an infinite number of possible values. In other words, any value is possible for the variable.
A continuous variable is the opposite of a discrete variable, which can only take on a certain number of values.
Time it takes a computer to complete a task. You might think you can count it, but time is often rounded up to convenient intervals, like seconds or milliseconds. Time is actually a continuum: it could take 1.3 seconds or it could take 1.333333333333333… seconds.
A person’s weight. Someone could weigh 180 pounds, they could weigh 180.10 pounds or they could weigh 180.1110 pounds. The number of possibilities for weight are limitless.
Age. So, you’re 25 years-old. Are you sure? How about 25 years, 19 days and a millisecond or two? Like time, age can take on an infinite number of possibilities and so it’s a continuous variable.
Heights and weights are both examples of quantities that are continuous variables.
Next: Discrete vs continuous variables.

As he reminded me with a wall post earlier, Jacob and I have been dating for 1.3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333 months now, intense huh? I told him that I wasn’t counting our positive anniversaries so much as our negative ones. It’s funny how important our anniversaries were about 4-8 mo. Then we got engaged and there were more days to celebrate but the only one that “really” matters (at least monthly) is that day coming up in January 😀 And that one is less than 3 months away, yay!

So that motor [Z-Axis] is a 7.5°, 48 step motor as I just listed. Since the motor is attached to a M4 rod, which has a 0.7 mm thread pitch, then in one revolution makes the Z-Axis travel up or down 0.7 mm.

How long would it take to fly anywhere on Earth using a SpaceX rocket?
Answer: less than an hour.
Before he gets us to Mars, Elon Musk wants to get us anywhere on Earth in under an hour.
At Friday’s International Astronautical Conference, the CEO of SpaceX revealed the company’s plans for its largest airborne vehicle yet, the BFR. While originally intended to facilitate SpaceX’s goal of putting humans on Mars by 2024, Musk announced that he also envisions using the rocket for high-speed Earth travel.
The world’s longest flight — from Doha, Qatar, to Auckland, New Zealand — currently takes 16.5 hours. However, with SpaceX’s BFR rocket, flight time would be just 45 minutes.

For example, what affects egg quality in fish? Answer: mother. But what affects mother? Answer: her environment. But what aspect of the environment? Answer: food availability. But what affects food availability? Answer: upwelling – one of nature’s remarkably influential processes.
Upwelling – when winds (you know, those blustery kinds where gulls look like they’re frozen in air) gust along a coastline pushing warm surface water offshore causing cold, nutrient-rich water from the ocean’s depth to move upward.
When the deep water, laced with compounds like nitrate and phosphate, reaches the surface, photosynthesizing phytoplankton ferociously consume those nutrients to grow and multiply. Flourishing swaths of phytoplankton are fed upon by zooplankton. Zooplankton are devoured by filter-feeders (perhaps an adorable krill). Filter-feeders are eaten by fishes (that can also eat zooplankton). Fishes are then preyed upon by all – whales, seals, pelicans, cormorants and humans – the latter harvest millions of tonnes of commercially valuable species that thrive in upwelling zones (e.g. anchovy, sardines).
Marine fisheries are definitely dependent on upwelling: about 20% of all catch occurs in upwelling regions, which only cover ~2% of the ocean’s surface!
Wait, 2%? That’s it? Wouldn’t it be swell if there were ways to mimic upwelling in places where this phenomena does not naturally occur? Answer: there are! Could this strategy realistically improve worldwide fish production? Answer: here comes another thought avalanche.

John is three times younger than his father, but two times older than his brother Jim. How old is John if Jim is 40 years younger than his father?

Question: How do you write a good novel in which the protagonist has an evil story goal?
Answer: Though they are more rare, there are stories told from the point of view of an immoral or villainous person. Shakespeare's Macbeth is one example. A Clockwork Orange is another.
In first person narration, reading such a story feels like having a mobster mistake you for his best friend. On the one hand, it's flattering to have him share his life story with you, while on the other hand you can mentally step back and pass judgment on his crimes.
Traditionally, villainous protagonists were the subject of tragedies. You read such stories to see how their mistakes and character flaws led to their downfall. Tragedies were lessons on how to not lead your life -- don't be greedy, selfish, overly ambitious, etc.
More problematic are the villainous protagonists who win in the end. Their stories can be disconcerting because they offend our natural sense of moral justice. The thematic message they deliver is a sense that something is wrong with the world (society, the universe, God, etc.). A system that would allow a villain to win must itself be a corrupt and immoral system in need of reform. Such a story is disturbing because people like to draw comfort from the notion that they understand the rules of the world, and that understanding makes the world fair and just. Seeing a villain win destroys that illusion.
So I would suggest you decide what your thematic message will be. Are your writing a tragedy or an indictment of the world?
Next, it helps a lot if you can make your villain appealing. This may mean giving him charm, humour, a backstory that evokes sympathy, flaws that the reader can relate to, or perhaps one or two traits that are admirable.
Consider that Ebenezer Scrooge has his endearing qualities (he enjoyed games and dancing). Even Satan in Paradise Lost comes across as admirable for his championing of individual freedom: "Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven."
Finally, it may help to give your character an inner conflict. Show us either the arc of his downfall or (if he starts out nasty) let him be pressured to reform but ultimately refuse to change.

Question: How many words constitute a fictional short story? Not a short, short story but a short story.
Answer: Generally, a short story is any story under 7,500 words. Anything under 1,000 words is often termed flash fiction.
However, these definitions are not fixed. Sometimes works up to 20,000 words have been called short stories. You have to check with individual publishers (such as literary magazines, websites, contests, etc.) to see what length of stories they are looking for and what terms they are using to describe them (e.g. micro-fiction, novelette, novella, postcard fiction).
At the extreme lower end there are also "six word memoirs," such as this famous one attributed to Hemingway: "For sale: baby shoes. Never worn."

How do people in the 1830s cure burns?
Answer: People used what they had handy in those days, and some of the practices are still used. They boiled chestnut leaves and used the resulting tea for burns, which may have been helpful. They also scraped raw potatoes and put that on the burn, which was also probably useful.Some of the things they did were not helpful, and probably made the burns worse. One thing was to put butter on it. Butter seals the heat in, so it continues to damage the tissue.
