# Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars

Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars is the debut studio album by American alternative rock band Edie Brickell & New Bohemians, released on August 9, 1988, by Geffen Records. The album went 2× platinum in the United States.
"What I Am" was the lead single and big hit from the album, reaching #7 on the Billboard Hot 100. The follow-up single, "Circle", was about strained relationships. Although described by author Brent Mann as "the perfect follow up single to 'What I Am'" and which "had 'smash' written all over it", it stalled at #48 on the Billboard Hot 100 and fared slightly better on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart, reaching #32. Cash Box said of "Circle" that "The key to this gentle song is Brickell’s breathy intensity. Supported by an acoustic-slanted track, she manages to sell the unusually dark lyric shadings." Another song from the album, "Little Miss S." was inspired by Edie Sedgwick and reached #38 on the Mainstream Rock chart and #14 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart.

# Rocky Mountain Floristic Region

The Rocky Mountain Floristic Region is a floristic region within the Holarctic Kingdom in western North America (Canada and the United States) delineated by Armen Takhtajan. The region extends from Kodiak Island in Alaska to the San Francisco Bay Area and Sierra Nevada in California. It consists of two provinces, the Vancouverian, which comprises the coastal part of the region for its entire length, including the Pacific Coast Ranges, and the Rocky Mountain, which includes the Rocky Mountains and associated ranges. There are no endemic plant families in the region but many endemic genera and species.

## Geography

The region spans from Kodiak Island of Alaska approximately to the San Francisco Bay Area and Sierra Nevada of California, running between the shore of the Pacific Ocean on the west and the Great Plains on the east, along the Rocky Mountains and Pacific Coast Ranges. It is bordered by the Canadian Province of the Circumboreal Region in the north, by the North American Prairies Province of the North American Atlantic Region in the east and by the Californian Province of the Madrean Region in the south. The borders with the Canadian and Californian Provinces are vague.

## Flora

Although the Rocky Mountain Region has no endemic vascular plant families and only one endemic Marchantiophyta family (Gyrothyraceae), it has many endemic genera (such as Sidalcea, Luetkea, Whipplea, Vancouveria, Lithophragma, Tellima, Tolmiea, Luina) and numerous endemic species. The genera Arnica, Castilleja, Erigeron, and Lomatium have their major center of diversity here. The region possesses the greatest diversity of conifers in the New World. The remaining wildland of the province is covered mostly by temperate coniferous forests (such as Northern California coastal forests, Maritime Coast Range Ponderosa Pine forests, Klamath-Siskiyou forests, British Columbia mainland coastal forests, Fraser Plateau and Basin complex, Northern Pacific coastal forests) dominated by Pinus ponderosa, Pinus contorta and Pseudotsuga menziesii, as well as the alpine tundra above timberline. The region is subdivided further into the Vancouverian Province and Rocky Mountain Province.
The Vancouverian Province comprises the coastal part of the region for its entire length, including the Pacific Coast Ranges. Such plant species and genera as Sequoia sempervirens, Sequoiadendron giganteum, Darlingtonia californica, Vancouveria and Whipplea are endemic to it. The boundary with the Californian Province is not well-defined.
The Rocky Mountain Province includes the Rocky Mountains and associated ranges. Due to more heavy glaciation during the Pleistocene, its flora, especially in the north, has a far lower degree of endemism than that of the Vancouverian Province. Much of it is shared with the Canadian Province and the Circumboreal Region in general.

# Itô isometry

In mathematics, the Itô isometry, named after Kiyoshi Itô, is a crucial fact about Itô stochastic integrals. One of its main applications is to enable the computation of variances for random variables that are given as Itô integrals.
Let $W:[0,T]\times \Omega \to \mathbb {R}$ denote the canonical real-valued Wiener process defined up to time $T>0$, and let $X:[0,T]\times \Omega \to \mathbb {R}$ be a stochastic process that is adapted to the natural filtration ${\mathcal {F}}_{*}^{W}$ of the Wiener process. Then
    $\operatorname {E} \left[\left(\int _{0}^{T}X_{t}\,\mathrm {d} W_{t}\right)^{2}\right]=\operatorname {E} \left[\int _{0}^{T}X_{t}^{2}\,\mathrm {d} t\right],$
where $\operatorname {E}$ denotes expectation with respect to classical Wiener measure.
In other words, the Itô integral, as a function from the space $L_{\mathrm {ad} }^{2}([0,T]\times \Omega )$ of square-integrable adapted processes to the space $L^{2}(\Omega )$ of square-integrable random variables, is an isometry of normed vector spaces with respect to the norms induced by the inner products
    ${\begin{aligned}(X,Y)_{L_{\mathrm {ad} }^{2}([0,T]\times \Omega )}&:=\operatorname {E} \left(\int _{0}^{T}X_{t}\,Y_{t}\,\mathrm {d} t\right)\end{aligned}}$
and
    $(A,B)_{L^{2}(\Omega )}:=\operatorname {E} (AB).$
As a consequence, the Itô integral respects these inner products as well, i.e. we can write
    $\operatorname {E} \left[\left(\int _{0}^{T}X_{t}\,\mathrm {d} W_{t}\right)\left(\int _{0}^{T}Y_{t}\,\mathrm {d} W_{t}\right)\right]=\operatorname {E} \left[\int _{0}^{T}X_{t}Y_{t}\,\mathrm {d} t\right]$
for $X,Y\in L_{\mathrm {ad} }^{2}([0,T]\times \Omega )$ .
