Pascal Couchepin (born 5 April 1942) is a Swiss politician who served as a Member of the Swiss Federal Council from 1998 to 2009. A member of the Free Democratic Party (FDP/PRD), he was President of the Swiss Confederation twice, in 2003 and 2008. Couchepin headed the Federal Department of Economic Affairs from 1998 to 2002 and Federal Department of Home Affairs from 2003 until 2009.

Biography
Couchepin holds a DEA's degree in Law from the University of Lausanne. He is a father of three (two daughters and a son) and has two grandchildren.

He was elected to the Swiss Federal Council on 11 March 1998 as a member of the Free Democratic Party of Switzerland from the canton of Valais. Previously, he had been Deputy Mayor (1976) and Mayor of Martigny (from 1984), as well as elected to the National Council from 1979 to 1998.

In 1998 he took over the Federal Department of Economic Affairs, in which position he fought against the government contributing any money to the $1.25 billion settlement between Swiss banks and Holocaust survivors. He was quoted as saying that "there is no reason for the Swiss Government to pay anything", as a government commission had shown "we did what was possible in the hard times of the war." In 2003 he moved to the Federal Department of Home Affairs. He was the President of the Confederation in 2003. On 13 December 2006, he was elected Vice President of the Federal Council for 2007; on 12 December 2007 was elected President of the Confederation for 2008.

During the Pope Benedict XVI Islam controversy, also known as the 2006 Regensburg lecture, he stated the Pope's speech was "intelligent and necessary." On 12 June 2009, Couchepin announced his resignation from the Federal Council effective 31 October 2009. This led to an election to fill his vacated seat.

Pascal Couchepin is a member of the Global Leadership Foundation, an organisation which works to support democratic leadership, prevent and resolve conflict through mediation and promote good governance in the form of democratic institutions, open markets, human rights and the rule of law. It does so by making available, discreetly and in confidence, the experience of former leaders to today's national leaders. It is a not-for-profit organisation composed of former heads of government, senior governmental and international organisation officials who work closely with heads of government on governance-related issues of concern to them.

William Gordon Dixon (21 July 1856 – 26 January 1938) was an English-born cricketer. He played nine first-class matches in New Zealand for Otago between the 1875–76 and 1885–86 seasons.

Dixon was born at Little Sutton in Cheshire in England in 1856. He worked as a bank officer and, after moving to Sydney, Australia in the 1890s, was the general manager of the Alliance Assurance Company. He was the manager of the company at the time of the sinking of  in 1895 and the subsequent salvage of much of the gold cargo carried on the ship.

Dixon made his debut for Otago in representative cricket in a January 1876 match against Canterbury at the South Dunedin Recreation Ground. He played once for the side in 1878 against the same opposition, and then seven times in first-class matches between the 1882–83 season and 1885–86. In his nine first-class matches Dixon scored a total of 156 runs and took seven wickets. He played for Otago sides in non first-class matches against a touring English side led by James Lillywhite in March 1877 and against touring Australian sides in January 1878 and Australian cricket team in New Zealand in 1886–87|November 1886]]. He played club cricket for Carisbrook Cricket Club in Dunedin―in 1885 he scored 219 runs for the club in a total of 458 against Excelsior.

Described as "well-known" in Dunedin sporting circle, Dixon also played rugby union for the Otago representative side and captained Dunedin FC.

Dixon moved to Sydney in 1887, promoted by the Union Insurance Company to run the Sydney branch. In Australia he was a member of the Union Club, the Royal Sydney Golf Club and the Royal Automobile Club of Australia. He was married and living at Point Piper near Sydney when he died at the age of 81 in 1938. He was survived by his wife and two children.

Eudeilinia herminiata, the northern eudeilinia, is a moth in the family Drepanidae. It was described by Achille Guenée in 1857. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from British Columbia to Newfoundland, south to Florida and west to Texas. The habitat consists of deciduous woods and wood edges.

The wingspan is 25–30 mm. Adults have pure white wings, the wing markings limited to interrupted orange-yellow to brown antemedial and postmedial lines. Adults are on wing from April to September in one generation per year.

The larvae feed on Cornus species.

Hard soaps (), also termed soda soaps in older terminology, are categorized under soaps and are typically sodium salts of fatty acids. They vary in color from white to brownish and have a fatty acid content ranging from 72 to 75%. These soaps are typically made from lower-quality fats. Hard soaps serve as the foundation for products frequently labeled as fine soaps, which are fortified with nourishing additives, perfumes, and dyes.

Naming 
The term hard soap originates from the soap production process. During this process, the addition of salt (sodium chloride) to boiling soap mixed with a substantial amount of water causes the soap nucleus to separate and solidify, making it "harder" and allowing it to float on the surface.

Production 
Through the process of saponification, fats (like tallow, pig, and bone fats) or vegetable oils react with sodium hydroxide to form the sodium salts of fatty acids and glycerin. The resulting mixture is known as soft soap, which serves as a precursor for hard soap production. After adding sodium chloride (a process known as salting out), the soap nucleus rises and separates. The water-soluble glycerin and unwanted fat residues remain in the solution (see also soap).

Properties and uses 
The fatty acid salts formed during production constitute the actual soap and are effective cleaners due to their surfactant properties. Using soap helps dissolve many water-insoluble substances, like fats and oils, making them washable with water.

In most cases, hard soaps or products based on them are used for handwashing because they exhibit an alkaline (pH value above 7) nature and can irritate the skin when in contact with mucous membranes. Hard soap has antiseptic qualities and can be used alongside warm water as a household remedy for paronychia. It's also used to shape dreadlocks.

In the realm of detergents, soaps are generally secondary due to the creation of soap scum. They are primarily utilized as defoamers.

Beyond cleaning, soaps also treat wood surfaces. They enhance the appearance of conifer woods, seal the wood's pores, minimize dirt accumulation, and prevent staining from fats or embedded dyes. For cleaning brushes, especially in oil painting, hard soap ensures extended durability of the bristles or hairs.

On occasion, water-based soap solutions are employed for pest control on cultivated plants, like against thrips and aphids.

The Lambda2 method, or Lambda2 vortex criterion, is a vortex core line detection algorithm that can adequately identify vortices from a three-dimensional fluid velocity field. The Lambda2 method is Galilean invariant, which means it produces the same results when a uniform velocity field is added to the existing velocity field or when the field is translated.

Description 
The flow velocity of a fluid is a vector field which is used to mathematically describe the motion of a continuum. 
The length of the flow velocity vector is the flow speed and is a scalar. The flow velocity  of a fluid is a vector field

which gives the velocity of an element of fluid at a position  and time 
The Lambda2 method determines for any point  in the fluid whether this point is part of a vortex core. A vortex is now defined as a connected region for which every point inside this region is part of a vortex core.

Usually one will also obtain a large number of small vortices when using the above definition. In order to detect only real vortices, a threshold can be used to discard any vortices below a certain size (e.g. volume or number of points contained in the vortex).

Definition 
The Lambda2 method consists of several steps. First we define the velocity gradient tensor ;

where  is the velocity field.
The velocity gradient tensor is then decomposed into its symmetric and antisymmetric parts:

 and  

where T is the transpose operation. Next the three eigenvalues of
 are calculated so that for each
point in the velocity field   there are three corresponding eigenvalues; ,  and . The eigenvalues are ordered in such a way that .
A point in the velocity field is part of a vortex core only if at least two of its eigenvalues are negative i.e. if . This is what gave the Lambda2 method its name.

Using the Lambda2 method, a vortex can be defined as a connected region where  is negative. However, in situations where several vortices exist, it can be difficult for this method to distinguish between individual vortices

. The Lambda2 method has been used in practice to, for example, identify vortex rings present in the blood flow inside the human heart
