Pefkos or Pefki, Greek: Πεύκος (Πεύκοι), is a well-known beach resort located on eastern coast of Rhodes, just 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) southwest of Lindos, and 43 kilometres (27 mi) from the capital city Rhodes. The island of Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese islands, on the eastern Aegean Sea, just a few miles from the coast of the Asia Minor. Pefkos was once known as a fishermen's hamlet located along the coastal road that connects the villages of Lindos and Lardos. Originally Pefkos was mainly used as a summer temporary residence for those who lived further inland but grew crops such as grapes, olives, tomatoes, figs and corn. They couldn't return home daily due to the heat and distance, so had small very basic houses in Pefkos. Visiting Pefkos by day will leave one with the impression of a quiet and relaxed holiday resort; however when the lights come on the resort is bustling with warm, friendly activity.
The main Pefkos beach (Lee beach) is a pure sand beach and is a Blue Flag status awarded beach for 2008. The beach is busy with tourists during the day, currently there are 3 restaurants on the waterfront. The beach is quiet, with no motorised watersports.
Pefkos, until recently was underdeveloped, but is now swiftly evolving in an important tourist resort, mostly offering self-catering holiday accommodation (villas and apartments) while its commercial centre has many amenities and a large range of restaurants, tavernas and bars. The resort is set against a hill which is surrounded by Pine trees from which the town gets its name. It is largely visited by Scandinavians, British, Germans, Polish and Austrians.

## Biography

Born on October 28, 1810, Sophie de Bezancourt was the daughter of Jean Baptiste Maximilien Joseph Antoine Lecat, baron de Bazancourt, and his wife Élisabeth Marie Constance Henriette d'Houdetot. She was Sophie d'Houdetot's granddaughter, and frequented her salon with select society. Léon Séché described her as follows: "She had a rather ugly figure, with strong features and protruding eyes which, at first glance, were not in her favor, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her relative ugliness was forgotten". And Sainte-Beuve said of her: "Charming young woman, a little Diane, childless. Remained a child and younger than her age. Not pretty, but better."

# Lytton, Ohio

## History

# Software Metrics Metamodel

The OMG Structured Metrics Metamodel (SMM) specification defines a standard Metrics Metamodel. It is a publicly available specification from the Object Management Group (OMG). SMM specifies a metamodel for defining, representing and exchanging both measures and measurement information related to any structured information model, such as the OMG Meta Object Facility (MOF™) standard, defining an XMI interchange format between metric extraction tools. It is used to maintain metrics by a number of other OMG specifications such as the Knowledge Discovery Metamodel and the Value Delivery Metamodel.

## Key concepts

The SMM standard includes elements representing the concepts to express a wide range of diversified measures:
* Measures denote the re-usable definitions of how measurements are calculated.
* Measurements are the results of applying measures, via observations.
* Libraries maintain measures and their related information, such as characteristics and units-of-measure, providing re-use in different contexts.

## Measures

SMM specifies the representation of measures without detailing the representation of the entities measured.
SMM defines representations for:
* Direct measures that are taken directly against a measurand. Examples include counts and named measures such as McCabe’s cyclomatic complexity or gross domestic product. Values may be imported or queried via SMM operations.
* Aggregate measures that are calculated from base measurements on features of a measurand. SMM operations specify the feature retrieval. Vote totals, volumes, and net profits can be defined as aggregate measures.
* Transmuting measures that rescale, grade or rank base measurements of a measurand. Fahrenheit to Celsius is a rescaling; clothes sizes of small, medium and large are grades; and customer satisfaction units derived from delivery time is a ranking.

## Measurement

The process of extracting metrics, requires a SMM tool to apply the measures to an observation scope that hold one or more models. This tool will produce a graph containing measurements, that maps to the measure graph. On this graph every node corresponds to the result of a measure on a measurand. Therefore, measures are mapped to 0 or more measurements where 0 indicates that no measurands corresponding to the scope of the measure were found.

## Observations

The SMM allows for multiple measurement graphs to be stored. Whenever a measurement graph is produced, it is associated to an observation that is dated and tagged with information describing the tool used to extract the metrics. Observations exist to be passed to metric reporting tools that can provide additional features like visualization and statistical control.

# Tillandsia tonalaensis

Tillandsia tonalaensis is a species of flowering plant in the genus Tillandsia. This species is endemic to Mexico.
# Lou Bloomfield

Louis Aub Bloomfield (born October 11, 1956) is a physics professor at the University of Virginia. Bloomfield became a fellow of the American Physical Society in 1994 for his work on cluster magnetism and has received several other significant honors. Bloomfield is often referenced as a physics authority in major news publications.

## Early life

Bloomfield was born in Boston, Massachusetts on October 11, 1956. He lived in Cleveland, Ohio and Urbana, Illinois, graduating from Urbana High School in 1974. Bloomfield attended Amherst College, winning the LeRoy Apker Award in his senior year. He was most interested in medicine after graduating from Amherst, but his physics professors pressured him to apply to three prestigious physics programs in addition to taking the MCAT and applying to medical school at Johns Hopkins University. Bloomfield was accepted into all three physics programs and medical school, but decided to go into physics after asking himself whether he really wanted to be "cutting apart dead bodies in Baltimore." Bloomfield attended Stanford University for physics, receiving his Ph.D. from the school in 1983. He began teaching at the University of Virginia two years later after a postdoc at Bell Laboratories.

## Career

Bloomfield began teaching physics at the University of Virginia in 1985. He developed and began teaching a course entitled "How Things Work" in 1991, which he has since taught to thousands of students. This course's success, along with the publishing of a textbook on the subject under the same title, has led to Bloomfield doing a number of interviews and explanations as a guest for large news companies. Bloomfield's explanations of everyday activities and questions have been featured in USA Today, The Huffington Post, and The Washington Post, where he did a series of explanations on sports during the 2016 Summer Olympics. Bloomfield worked with UVA to create an instructional video on social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

### Inventions

Bloomfield has expertise in the field of borosilicate materials and has developed multiple products using this technology. Borosilicates are viscoelastic (a portmanteau of "viscous" and "elastic"), a property that is useful in multiple areas. These inventions include Vistik, a material designed for use in stabilizing wobbly tables, and EarJellies, which are earplugs made from a similar material.
