In mathematics (particularly in set theory), the continuum refers to either the real numbers, or the cardinality of the set of real numbers (also written as ). Continuum hypothesis is the hypothesis that the cardinality of the continuum is the same as aleph one. It turns out that neither this hypothesis nor its negation contradicts the tenets of set theory itself.

The R160 is a class of New Technology subway cars built for the New York City Subway B Division. Entering service between 2006 and 2010, they replaced all R38, R40/A, and NYCT-operated R44 cars, and most R32 and R42 cars. The R160s are very similar to the R143s, but the two-car types cannot run together in the same train. The biggest difference between them is the FIND (Flexible Information and Notice Display) system on the R160s in place of static LED maps on the R143s.

The Belarusian Private News Agency () or shortly BelaPAN () is a non-governmental news agency in Belarus. It is a big news agency in the country. BelaPAN makes news on politics, economy, and sports from Belarus in the Russian, Belarusian, and English languages. 

BelaPAN has the on-line newspaper Belorusskiye Novosti (naviny.by). Its site can't be opened in Belarus. It has been writing about the 2020 Belarusian protests and 2020 Belarusian presidential election.

On January 14, 2021, the office of BelaPAN was searched. Computers and part of the written by hand and printed papers were taken away. All that stopped the work of the news agency.

On August 18, 2021, the police searched the office of BelaPAN, houses of its journalists. The police took away computers, smartphones, and other things from there. A number of people who worked for BelaPAN were arrested, including editor-in-chief Iryna Levshyna. The websites of BelaPAN (belapan.by and belapan.com) has stopped working since August 18, 2021. Iryna Levshyna, past head Zmicier Navazhilau and accountant Katsyaryna Boeva became persons in a criminal case on organizing actions that attack public order. On August 19, 2021, ten organizations (the Viasna Human Rights Centre, the Belarusian Association of Journalists, the Belarusian Helsinki Committee and others) made a joint statement. It said that they are political prisoners.

In November 2021, the KGB declared BelaPAN an extremist formation.

Phillip Parker King  (13 December 1791 – 26 February 1856) was an explorer, Royal Navy officer and politician from the colony of New South Wales. He is known as an early explorer of the Australian coastline. He also took part in the survey of Patagonian coasts. He served as a member of the New South Wales Legislative Council. In 1855, he was named as a rear admiral on the retired list. He was also a member of the Royal Society.

King was born on Norfolk Island. He was the son of Anna Josepha (née Coombe) and Philip Gidley King. He was named after his father's mentor, Arthur Phillip, the first governor of New South Wales and founder of the British penal colony which later became the city of Sydney. This explains the difference in spelling of his and his father's first names.

King married Harriet Lethbridge in 1817. The couple had eight children. Two of his sons, Philip Gidley (named after his grandfather) and John, were both pastoralists and politicians. King died in North Sydney on 26 February 1856 at the age of 64.

There are many instances of things named after King. King Sound of the Kimberley in Western Australia is named after him. There are also six reptile species named after King: Amphisbaena kingii, Chlamydosaurus kingii, Egernia kingii, Elgaria kingii, Hydrophis kingii and Liolaemus kingii.
