Green-eyed tree frog

The green-eyed tree frog, brown-spotted tree frog, fringed tree frog or New Guinea tree frog (Ranoidea genimaculata)  is a tree frog from New Guinea.  It lives everywhere on the island except high in the mountains. It lives in both Papua New Guinea and Indonesia, no more than 1500 meters above sea level. It also lives in Queensland, Australia, near the Great Barrier Reef, but some scientists think these are really two different species.  Scientists who think they are one species call the frogs in New Guinea and Australia Litoria genimaculata and scientists who think they are two different species call the New Guinea frogs genimaculata and the Australian frogs serrata. Some scientists think the group of frogs in Australia is really two different species, serrata and myola, for three altogether.

The adult male frog is 4.6 cm long and the adult female frog is 7.1 cm long. Each frog has a bright green ring around its eyes, which is why it is called "green-eyed tree frog" in English.  It has a brown-green body with patches of color that look like lichen that grows on wet rocks.  That way, the frog can hide from larger animals that want to eat it. The frog has very large discs on its toes for climbing.  This frog has a bit of skin on its hind legs that looks like fringe.  That is why it is also called "fringed tree frog" in English.

This frog lives near streams with rocks in them.  The male frogs tend to stay near the water, and the female frogs climb high into the trees.  The female frog lays eggs in pools, many hundreds at a time.

This frog has colors that look like an hourglass on its back.  Scientists thought they could take photographs of this frog to identify individual frogs, but the hourglass changes shape as the frog grows older.

This frog is not endangered now, but scientists think the fungal disease chytridiomycosis or a virus may have killed many of them.

Quasiparticle

The term Quasiparticle describes a concept in physics in which energetically excited states in matter are treated as though they are elementary quantum particles in their own right.  In fact they may be something less tangible like a vibration or a rotation.

Unlike neutrons, protons, or even atoms and molecules, quasiparticles aren't independent structures floating about on their own in free space but exist only within the structure  being studied. 

For the purposes of modelling the behaviour of the excited  state within the structure  this treatment works very well.  

As the particles emerge from more fundamental structures they are called quasi-particles or quasiparticles.

These particles have in most cases short  lifetimes, like the magnon or the exciton. But there are also some quasi-particles with an infinite lifetime like the cooper-pair in superconductors.

Tsakhur orthography

Tsakhur orthography belongs to the Tsakhur such as Gelmets added many letters. Tsakhur is a Caucasian language. This means the alphabet has many letters, but the alphabet is currently can added many alphabet to make the sounds, too.

Alphabet
The alphabet on the standard dialect is currently is unauthorized for the digraph. So the alphabet for Tsakhur is А,Б,В,Г,Д,Е,Ё,Ж,З,И,Й,К,Л,М,Н,О,П,Р,С,Т,У,Ф,Х,Ц,Ч,Ш,Щ,Ъ,Ы,Ь,Э,Ю,Я and same like Russian alphabet. Which means Tsakhur alphabet have a 18 additional letters including АІ,ГІ,Гъ,Гь,ЕІ,КІ,Къ,Кь,Л',ОІ,ПІ,ТІ,УІ,Хъ,Хь,ЦІ,ЧІ,ЫІ. In Tsakh dialect,the letters with hard sign (Ъ),soft sign,and palochka or the double letters has been added. In Gelmets dialect,ХІ is added.

Phonology
In Tsakh dialect,the word such as Гэмил was invented to Гэмээл. While for Gelmets dialect,is Гамил ("Yellow"). Omniglot says the pharyngealized letters is uses with palochka. While for Gelmets dialect is many. In unicode,sometimes letters have has been added the Cyrillic letters who it is past.

Usage in unicode
Sometimes,unicode asked to remove Tsakhur button,because of one of all social medias doesn't have this button.

Usage in social medias
President of Dagestan asked to removing the Tsakhur button,because Russia is the best countries of the republics in Russia,so the Omniglot says.

Pteropus

Pteropus is a genus of large megabats. They are commonly known as fruit bats or flying foxes. They live in the tropics and subtropics of Asia:  Australia,  the Indian subcontinent, East Africa, and some oceanic islands in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. 

There are at least 60 living species in the genus.
Flying foxes eat fruit and other plant matter, and occasionally  insects as well. They find food with their keen sense of smell. Most, but not all, are nocturnal. They navigate with keen eyesight, as they cannot echolocate. They have long lives and low birth rates.  Females of most species have only one offspring each year. This slow birth rate makes their populations vulnerable in present-day circumstances.

Like other bats, flying foxes can give deadly diseases to humans. They are the reservoirs of rare but fatal disease agents such as Australian bat lyssavirus (which causes rabies), and Hendra virus. Seven known human deaths have come from these two diseases. Nipah virus is also transmitted by flying foxes—it affects more people, with over 100 fatalities. 

Flying foxes have cultural significance to indigenous people. They appear in traditional art, folklore, and weaponry. Their fur and teeth were used as currency in the past. Some cultures still use their teeth as currency today.

Measure word

A measure word is a word or morpheme (the smallest meaningful unit in a language) that shows how much of something there is.

In English, measure words are used to show amounts of something that cannot be easily counted, also called uncountable nouns or mass nouns. For example, a person cannot usually say, "I have three gasolines", since gasoline is not easy to count. However, a person can measure how much gasoline there is or count how many containers are used to hold gasoline. In other words, people can say, "I have three gallons of gasoline", "I have three liters of gasoline", or "I have three tanks of gasoline."

In English, count nouns are their own measure words. A person can say "I have three cars" or "cars have four wheels". The nouns do not need any extra words because the nouns themselves are easy to count. Measure words can also be used to describe groups of countable nouns. For example, a group of cattle is called "a herd of cattle" and a group of fish is called "a school of fish."

In many East Asian languages, like Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, measure words must be used to count both mass nouns and count nouns. Unlike in English, a person cannot simply say "three cars" or "four wheels" in Chinese. The nouns in both phrases need a measure word. In Chinese a person must say "three (vehicle) car" (三辆车) and "four (thing) wheel" (四个轮).

Matrix function

In mathematics, a function maps an input value to an output value. In the case of a matrix function, the input and the output values are matrices.  One example of a matrix function occurs with the Algebraic Riccati equation, which is used to solve certain optimal control problems. 

Matrix functions are special functions made by matrices.

Definitions
Most functions like  are defined as a solution of a differential equation. But matrix functions will use a different way.

Suppose  is a complex number and  is a square matrix. If you have a polynomial:
,
then it is reasonable to define

Let's use this idea. When you have
,
then you can introduce

For example, the matrix version of the exponential function and the trigonometric functions are defined as follows:

Importance
Matrix functions are used at numerical methods for ordinary differential equations and statistics. This is why numerical analysts are studying how to compute them. For example, the following functions are studied:
 Matrix exponential
 Root of a matrix
 Matrix cosine and sine
 Logarithm of a matrix
 Validated numerics for the functions above
 Matrix version of the gamma function

Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1

The CLP-1 or  () is the top division of the Tunisian Football Federation. It was created in 1921.

History
The football championship of Tunisia, was first held in 1907 by the "Ligue Tunisienne de football" (Tunisian League of football – LTF) then the Tunisian Football Federation (FTF). The first edition opposed the three teams of "Racing club of Tunis", "Football club of Bizerte" and "Sporting of Ferryville", and the two school teams of the "Carnot College of Tunis" and the "Sadiki College".
It became official with the creation of the LTF in 1921 and its affiliation with the French federation of football. Until 1939, the title of champion was attributed as a result of dams between the regional champions. But from 1946 to 1947, a championship of "excellence" (national division) was created and competes nationally. In 1944–1945, 1945–1946 and 1952–1953, the championship was not disputed and was replaced by a criterium (a kind of tournament pools where participation is voluntary). 
The current big clubs are created during this period: "Esperance Sportive de Tunis" (1919), "Club African" (1920), "Etoile Sportive du Sahel" (1925), "Club Athletic Bizertin" and "Club Sportif Sfaxien" (1928).

Media coverage 
El Watania 1 and El Watania 2 have the broadcast rights of the Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1 since independence. Qatari channels Al-Kass Sports have the rights of broadcasting 10 meetings per season, most of them derby matches, since the 2015–16 season.

Shibboleth

A shibboleth () was originally a single word which distinguished one group from another.

Rather more widely, it is any custom or tradition that distinguishes one group of people from another. Shibboleths have been used throughout history in many societies as passwords. They are simple ways of self-identification: they signal loyalty and affinity.

Origin
The term comes from the Hebrew word shibbólet (), which means the part of a plant containing grain, such as the head of a stalk of wheat or rye. 

The modern use comes from an account in the Hebrew Bible. How this word was pronounced was used to distinguish friend from foe. In the Book of Judges, chapter 12, the inhabitants of Gilead inflicted a military defeat on the invading tribe of Ephraim (around 1370–1070 BC). The surviving Ephraimites tried to cross the River Jordan to their home territory, but the Gileadites secured the river's fords to stop them.  

To identify and kill the Ephraimites, the Gileadites told each suspected survivor to say the word shibboleth. The Ephraimite dialect resulted in a pronunciation that, to Gileadites, sounded like sibboleth.  In the King James Bible: 

The concept of a shibboleth is still with us. It is any word, phrase, jargon or pronunciation which identifies a person as a member of a particular group.

Landscape urbanism

Landscape urbanism is a new theory in the field of urban and regional planning that first appeared in the late 20th century claiming that the best way to organize cities is through the landscape design of the city rather than the design of its buildings. The phrase urban landscape first appeared in the mid-1990s. Since then this phrase has received many different uses but is most often cited as a post-modernist response to the failures of "New Urbanism".

In 2008 the first Biennale in the world of "Landscape Urbanism" was held in the city of Bat-Yam in Israel which dealt with New Urbanism.
