Abundance of chemical elements
The elements are only a small part of the content of the Universe. By "elements" is meant ordinary (baryonic) matter made of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The rest is thought to be made up of dark energy (68%) and dark matter (27%). These are forms of matter and energy are "believed" to exist on the basis of scientific theory and inductive reasoning. They are based on observations, but they have not been directly observed. Their nature is not well understood.
Most standard (baryonic) matter is found in intergalactic gas, stars, and interstellar clouds, in the form of atoms or ions (plasma). Degenerate forms are found in extreme settings, such as the high densities inside white dwarfs and neutron stars.
The inner planets of the Solar System are unusual because they have a high amount of heavier elements. These heavier elements were formed in earlier supernovae.

Aspect ratio of picture or display is the ratio between width and height. i.e.: If a picture or video has resolution of 1920 x 1080, That means the width is 1920 and the height is 1080. Now if we write them as ratio then these two parameters become (width:height) 1920:1080. Dividing both of them by the same denominator 120 it becomes 16 : 9. Which is ultimately the aspect ratio of the picture or video.

God the Son
In Christian theology, God the Son is the second person of the Trinity, which teaches that Jesus Christ is the Incarnation of God. God the Son who along with the Father and the Holy Spirit is of the same essence, share the same qualities, and each are fully God.
These three words: "God the Son" are nowhere to be found in the Bible, but are found in later Christian sources. At one time, a scribe made an error in one medieval manuscript, MS No. 1985, where Galatians 2:20 has "Son of God" changed to "God the Son".
The New American Standard Bible chooses to translate John 1:18 as:
Holy Spirit in Christianity
In most Christian churches, the Holy Spirit, or Holy Ghost, is the third person of the Trinity. The Trinity is a God made up of three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, who share the same qualities and essence and are therefore One God. Christians who don't believe in the Trinity have a big difference in their beliefs about the Holy Spirit.
In Christian theology, pneumatology is the study of the Holy Spirit.
Christianity came from Judaism. People who study the Bible often identify the Holy Spirit with the the Ruach Hakodesh in Jewish scripture. They think that Jesus was expanding upon these Jewish concepts.
Christians believe that the Bible is the work of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit revealed truth to the human authors. In the Old Testament the prophets were "carried along" by the Holy spirit when they wrote. Thus the scriptures are said to be "God breathed". The word for breath and spirit are the same in the Greek language. This is the language that the New Testament is written in. Christians think this means that the Holy Spirit helped the authors to write the Bible books.
Jesus said that the Holy Spirit would "convince the world of sin, righteousness and judgement". This means that people know right from wrong, and they know that God will punish evil. This is God's way of bringing people to call on God for salvation. It is part of Divine grace.
The New Testament tells how the Holy Spirit relates to Jesus. The Gospels of Matthew and Luke and the Nicene Creed say that Jesus was "conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary". The Holy Spirit descended on Jesus like a dove during his baptism. After the Last Supper Jesus promised to send the Holy Spirit to his disciples after he went to Heaven.
The Christian Bible says that the Holy Spirit comes to live in each Christian. He produces the "fruits of the Spirit", which are love, joy, peace, long-suffering (patience), kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, self-control. The Holy Spirit also gives gifts to Christians. These include the ability to preach the gospel, having strong faith, praying for people to be healed, speaking in other languages and understanding them.
Some other gifts are teaching, being kind and helping people. Christians do not all agree about these gifts. Some Christians think that the supernatural gifts no longer are given. They say they were only seen in Bible times. Others think that these miracles still happen today.

Mann Act
The White-Slave Traffic Act, also called the Mann Act, is a United States federal law. It was passed June 25, 1910 (ch. 395, ; "codified as amended at" ). It is named after Congressman James Robert Mann of Illinois.
The act made it illegal to bring women or girls from one state into another for the purpose of "prostitution or debauchery, or for any other immoral purpose," which means for them to have sex for money. The law was there to stop human trafficking. Most human trafficking was people taking young women from place to place for prostitution. The Mann Act was one of a group of laws about moral reform, during an era that was known as Progressive Era.
It had a problem though: the language used was often ambiguous or unclear. It was even used to make agreed sex between adults a crime. This was because people thought of sex as immoral if the two people were not married. Congress changed it twice, in 1978, and 1986, so that it would only be used for prostitution or other illegal sexual acts.
In the 19th century, in many American cities, people could only sell sex for money in some areas of the city. These were called red light districts. During that time, cities became more urbanized; also more women started to work. This meant that there would be more cases, where courtship could take place without supervision. In this environment, a concern of "white slavery" started: the fear was that women would be kidnapped and forced into prostitution. In 1847, Charles Sumner had described the Barbary slave trade. The ideas originally were from this description.
Communities started to set up vice commissions, to look how widespread local prostitution was. They also looked into questions, if the prostitutes were forced, and if cartel-type organizations ran local prostitution. These commissions also closed the brothels and the red light districts. The laws in the cities, which were liberal at first became more and more restrictive. Throughout the last few decades of the 19th century, there was more and more opposiition to an open prostution on the streets. The Federal Government responded to this with the Mann Act. The purpose of the act was to make it a crime to "transport [...], or aid to assist in obtaining transportation for" or to "persuade, induce, entice or coerce" a woman to travel. Many of the changes that occurred after 1900 were a result of tensions between social ideals and practical realities. Family form and functions changed in response to a complex set of circumstances that were the effects of economic class and ethnicity.
According to historian Mark Thomas Connelly, a group of books and pamphlets appeared announcing a startling claim: There was a conspiracy, which trapped white girls, seduced them, and forced them into prostitution, or 'white slavery'. These stories started around 1909. They often wrote about innocent girls "victimized by a huge, secret and powerful conspiracy controlled by foreigners", as they were drugged or imprisoned and forced into prostitution.
This excerpt from "The War on the White Slave Trade" was written by the United States District Attorney in Chicago:
Connelly says that these issues were real problems that had been there for a long time. The concerns simply made them bigger. These issues came from the fact that many young girls from the countryside came into the cities looking for work. Some of them became prostitutes, because they were well-paid.. A number of Vice Commission reports had drawn attention to the issue. Some people of the time questioned the idea of "abduction" and "foreign control of prostitution through cartels". Emma Goldman was a noted radical and feminist. She asked "What is really the cause of the trade in women? Not merely white women, but yellow and black women as well. Exploitation, of course; the merciless Moloch of capitalism that fattens on underpaid labor, thus driving thousands of women and girls into prostitution. With Mrs. Warren these girls feel, 'Why waste your life working for a few shillings a week in a scullery, eighteen hours a day?' ... Whether our reformers admit it or not, the economic and social inferiority of woman is responsible for prostitution." While prostitution was widespread, contemporary studies by local vice commissions indicate that it was "overwhelmingly locally organized without any large business structure, and willingly engaged in by the prostitutes."
