南开大学天津大学联合研究大厦

南开大学天津大学联合研究大厦，又称天南大联合研究大厦，简称联合研究大厦、天南楼，有南天门昵称，位于南开大学与天津大学交界处原天南街的位置，建筑南侧一半位于南开大学八里台校区校园，北侧一半位于天津大学卫津路校区校园，横跨天津市规划的大学道，底部留有连通两校的通道。联合研究大厦于2005年9月20日开工建设，2007年落成。
“南开大学、天津大学联合研究大厦”为正式名称，因朗读习惯常被称作“天南大联合研究大厦”，亦简称“天南大联合大厦”、“联合研究大厦”和“天南楼”，又因建筑成门的形状，有“南天门”的昵称。
1951年后，南开大学与天津大学两校之间长期没有围墙区分。1990年代后期，中国大学合并浪潮中，时任国务院副总理李岚清提出了“共建、调整、合作、合并”的方针，教育部和天津市成立了“南开大学—天津大学紧密合作领导小组”拟促成地缘毗邻、学科互补的两所高校进行合并。因两校均具有悠久历史和办学特色且校友强烈反对，合并计划在讨论了两年后，在2001年底最终宣告失败。此后，南开大学与天津大学的合作办学方针调整为“各自独立办学、相互紧密合作”。两校之间连通的天南街也筑起了围墙。此后，两校共同建立南开大学天津大学联合研究院、南开大学天津大学刘徽应用数学中心等，国家教育部与天津市教育委员会拟共同投资在两校交界处建设一座25,000平方米的联合研究大厦。
在建筑设计阶段，天津市建筑设计院、华汇工程建筑设计有限公司等均参与了建筑设计方案的投标，最终华汇的设计方案中标，由天津市建工总承包公司一分公司承建。
南开大学天津大学联合研究大厦的用途是科研办公等。天津化学化工协同创新中心、南开大学药学院、先进能源材料化学教育部重点实验室等位于此。
劳埃德大厦

劳埃德大厦（英語：Lloyd's Building），又称油井大厦、洛伊大厦，位于英国伦敦中心金融区伦敦城内，是劳合社的办公大楼。这幢建筑是2007年普利兹克奖得主、英国建筑师里查德·罗杰斯的代表作之一，在建筑界充满争议性，获得过赞赏、批评和惊异等多元化的评论，也有“钢铁怪物”的昵称。
大廈在建成25年後的2011年被列為一級登錄建築，成為英國最年輕的一級登錄建築。按英格蘭遺產委員會的說法，這是因為“它是一座眾所周知的現代經典建築”。
1977年，有包括贝聿铭事务所和福斯特事务所在内的6家世界著名建筑师事务所共同参加角逐的劳埃德大厦的设计竞赛中，里查德·罗杰斯及合伙人事务所以“浪漫的高科技风格”方案一举获胜，从而夺得劳埃德大厦的设计权。1986年，当劳埃德保险集团公司新办公大楼落成之时，由于充满争议，立刻引起舆论的关注。 2013年，中国平安从一家德国商业银行旗下的不动产封闭式基金公司，以24億人民幣代價购得劳埃德大厦。
劳埃德大厦由建筑师里查德·罗杰斯于1977年主创设计。在设计风格上重复暴露建筑结构，大量使用不锈钢、铝材和其他合金材料构件，使整个建筑像巨型的钢铁机器一样闪闪发光。
英国伦敦的劳埃德大厦从落成的那天起，就伴随着一系列矛盾的评价和解释。建筑历史与理论家、建筑师、评论家、记者纷纷对此发表评论，由于充满争议，获得了不少批评、赞誉、惊异等评论。

淡马锡初级学院

淡马锡初级学院（英語：Temasek Junior College），创立于1977年，是一所位于新加坡东部勿洛的两年制高中学院，也是新加坡第二所国立初级学院。淡马锡初院是新加坡五大初院之一。2013年起开始也提供六年制直通车课程（Integrated Programme）。由于该学院的制服是绿色的，而且校园绿化充分，所以校园也有绿园的昵称。
淡马锡初级学院的校训是“为国家，为学院”。
淡马锡初级学院的校徽以变形的「TJC」英文字母组成。其中T以蘑菇状呈现，反映了学院初期的三大建筑（第一讲堂、第二讲堂以及图书馆）的基本形象。校徽背景为绿色，代表新加坡努力实现一个高度绿化国家的目标。
T字的横笔分为五个格，各代表正义、平等、幸福、繁荣、进步这五个国家理想。T字的竖笔分四格，象征四大民族共同努力实现国家理想。
淡马锡初级学院的校徽有两个版本：正方形校徽，佩戴在校服左领上；圆形校徽，主体与正方形校徽相同，在外加了一圈橄榄枝以及校名，在1987年十周年校庆后采用，主要用于校旗、学校信笺等。
淡马锡初级学院的校旗是深绿底、中央橄榄枝校徽旗。
淡马锡初级学院的校歌是“Our Will To Blaze”。
阿明 (俚语)

阿明（白話字：a-bêng，英語：Ah Beng）是一个新加坡俚语，用来形容某些年轻华裔男性，表现出染发、追求潮流的穿着打扮、受教育程度低等共同特征，相当于阿明的年轻女性称为“阿莲”（Ah Lian）。
典型的阿明被认为是没有受过高等教育、说话粗鲁及毫无分寸、参与私会党的年轻男性；与之，阿莲则被视为是浮夸、反智、肤浅、物质主义、低俗的年轻女性。
“阿明”（Ah Beng）一词源自闽南语的发音，是新加坡本地华裔男性常用的名字，“阿成”（Ah Seng）一词与之同义；女性称之为“阿莲”（Ah Lian），是新加坡本地华裔女性常用的名字，同义词是“阿花”（Ah Huay），暗示他们共有的通俗性。马来西亚将他们称为“啦啦仔”和“啦啦妹”，相当于香港所称的“MK仔”和“MK妹”，或者台湾称为“台客”和“8+9”。
典型的“阿明”角色曾出现在多部新加坡电影，包括：
葛米星在《鬼马家族（英语：Phua Chu Kang Pte Ltd）》饰演的角色潘厝港（Phua Chu Kang）是阿明的典型形象，他的弟弟潘厝明（Phua Chu Beng），昵称为“阿明”，却是一位受过高等教育的建筑师。
在新加坡导演陈子谦执导的2003年电影《15（英语：15 (film)）》中，其收錄的福建話「三六九」饒舌裡，就有用「阿明」「阿成」來指代參與私會黨的華裔青少年。
吉隆坡火车总站

吉隆坡火车总站（馬來語：Stesen Kereta Api Kuala Lumpur）是位于马来西亚吉隆坡的铁路车站。该站始建于1910年，于1917年全面竣工。它取代了原址上的旧车站，在2001年吉隆坡中央车站接管其大部分职能前，该站一直是马来亚铁路公司（英語：Keretapi Tanah Melayu）及其前身马来联邦铁路（英语：Federated Malay States Railways）在吉隆坡市内的铁路枢纽。该站以融合东西方设计的建筑风格著称。
车站坐落于苏丹希沙慕丁路（Jalan Sultan Hishamuddin，旧称胜利大街（Victory Avenue），原属白沙罗路的一部分），毗邻同风格的铁路行政大楼（英语：Railway Administration Building, Kuala Lumpur）、国家清真寺及宏图大厦，与中央艺术坊站隔巴生河相望，相距400米。
在现址吉隆坡火车站建成前，市内已有两座车站投入运营。首座吉隆坡车站因邻近国家迎宾馆（英语：Carcosa Seri Negara）而昵称官邸车站（Resident Station），位于雪兰莪俱乐部（今独立广场）西侧。这座木结构建筑以聂帕棕榈叶覆顶，通过首条连接吉隆坡与巴生（Pengkalan Batu）的铁路线（1886年9月22日正式启用），使吉隆坡与马来半岛其他地区接轨。
第二座车站苏丹街车站（Sultan Street Station）于1892年建于福煦大道（今敦陈祯禄路），邻近现马来亚银行大厦、富都车站及 AG8 SP8 人民广场站。其设计仿效官邸车站，坐落于1910年车站北侧分岔的安邦矿区铁路线（半山芭线）上。该线独特之处在于，从主线通往苏丹街车站的轨道初期段夹在福煦大道的双向车道之间，贯穿城市东侧。
吉隆坡新车站建成后，官邸车站被拆除。而苏丹街车站在福煦大道轨道拆除改为公路后，被小型终点站取代，并于1960年后拆除。原安邦线部分路段现由轻快铁安邦线沿用。
亚瑟·本尼森·哈巴克（英语：Arthur Benison Hubback），英国公共工程署总监的建筑助理，负责车站设计。他将当地独特的欧亚混合建筑风格融入车站，采用当时盛行的“新摩尔（英语：Moorish Revival）/蒙兀儿/印度撒拉逊复兴”风格。类似建筑如苏丹阿都沙末大厦（由A.C.诺曼（英语：A.C. Norman）主理，R.A.J.比德韦尔（英语：Regent Alfred John Bidwell）实际设计，1897年完工）、旧市政厅（A.B.哈巴克设计，1904年竣工）及占美清真寺（A.B.哈巴克设计，1909年竣工）均早于吉隆坡车站。
耗资叻币23,000元，车站于1910年8月1日启用。随着官邸车站拆除及苏丹街车站边缘化，吉隆坡车站成为市内铁路核心枢纽。 车站北翼及上层曾设有170间客房的车站酒店（1996年更名为古迹车站酒店），其华丽大堂内设查理餐厅与酒吧（2000年代末期）。1995年，马来亚铁道通勤服务（KTM Komuter）引入本站。
2001年4月15日，长途城际列车业务南迁至吉隆坡中央车站后，本站重要性下降。尽管城际列车仍经停本站，但不再载客，仅保留通勤与货运服务。客流量锐减导致城际售票柜台、办公室及商铺陆续关闭。古迹车站酒店因经营不善及2000年代末翻修问题于2011年停业，2014年短暂重开后再度关闭 。虽然侧式月台已为城际列车调整高度，但岛式月台配置在通勤服务开通前15年间无法有效利用，直至2009年改造抬升最后一批原始月台（见月台章节）。
2007年8月31日（马来亚独立50周年）前夕，多方报道称旧铁路设备从巴生仓库等地迁移至本站，包括修复的小型调车机车及古董消防车。本站于当日作为铁路博物馆重新开放（主厅与月台设展），并计划转型文化中心。
本站历经多次重大改造：1967年北翼拱廊加装窗户改为办公空间；1986年大规模翻新，内部装潢现代化，外部修复保留原貌，并增设空调候车厅、旅游咨询台与小食部。古迹车站酒店仍保留部分原始内饰。此次翻新在南翼增建“拉吉”风格延伸体，北翼正面加装类似风格立面以掩盖原有西式设计。改造后建筑角楼恰特里（英语：chhatris）从四座增至六座。其他改动包括：后墙开凿新入口、增建的士站与商业空间，以及主楼前通道上加建双层商铺。1986年改造还向北延伸月台并新建站体，连通同期竣工的宏图大厦（1982-1984年建）内吉隆坡邮政总局（英语：Kuala Lumpur General Post Office）。
1995年通勤铁路开通芙蓉线与巴生港线后，本站增设通勤售票机与闸机，但仅新岛式月台可供使用（见月台章节）。2001年中央车站接管城际业务后，本站相关设施逐步拆除。2009年作为电动列车服务（ETS）站点后，有限城际业务重新引入。
本站设三座月台四条轨道：两侧侧式月台（1、4号）及中间岛式月台（2、3号）。1995年前，月台编号涵盖新旧部分；通勤服务启用后，原2、3号月台延伸段编号改为2a、3a，1、4号维持不变。
1910年启用时，所有月台高于轨道但低于车厢地板，通过两条隧道连接（乘客走阶梯，手推车用斜坡）。1986年改造抬升侧式月台匹配新车厢高度（隧道入口未改动），但岛式月台主体未调整，导致通勤列车无法停靠。2009年为适应电动列车及加长通勤动车组，抬升2、3号月台，拆除百年隧道护栏并封闭部分阶梯出口。2006年加建连接新旧棚顶的雨棚。
月台功能分配：
1917年竣工时，吉隆坡火车站由前部主站楼与后部三座月台（服务四条轨道）组成。
主建筑体包含大厅、售票柜台、铁路办公室及铁路酒店，主体采用融合西方与蒙兀儿元素的"拉吉"风格，近似摩尔复兴（英语：Moorish Revival）或印度撒拉逊复兴建筑。建筑以大量马蹄拱（英语：Horseshoe arch）、洋葱拱（英语：Ogee）及六座（后增建两座）大型恰特里（英语：chhatri）角楼为特色，辅以前庭小型变体设计，与同期建筑如苏丹阿都沙末大厦、独立广场周边建筑及街对面的铁路行政大楼（英语：Railway Administration Building, Kuala Lumpur）形成呼应。早期增建的北翼三层附楼采用更西化的本土设计，配以环绕式游廊与多种跨度平圆拱（英语：segmental arch）。外立面采用全灰泥粉刷（有别于同风格建筑常见的裸露砖墙工艺），长期保持浅色调（多为白色或奶油色）涂装。
月台区覆盖大型钢架棚顶，初期长度较短。顶棚原为玻璃材质并设可开启部分以排放蒸汽机车烟雾，后期更换为波浪铁皮。非连接主楼侧的月台围墙延续主楼建筑风格。站体与月台通过两条地下通道相连。1986年改造的月台延伸段采用现代主义设计：大型混凝土支柱支撑格栅结构（英语：Latticework）顶棚，北端设有悬空两层的混凝土板售票处。延伸部白色墙面与拱形装饰元素融合旧站与宏图大厦设计语汇，并通过空中步道与宏图大厦连通。
Aunt

Aunt是一个英文单词，用来称呼父母的姐妹、嫂子和弟媳。此处的兄弟姐妹亦包含同父异母的、同母异父的及继父母带来的兄弟姐妹。在中文中并没有确切的词与之相对应，Aunt所涵盖的范围在中文中则分化为伯母、叔母、姑母、舅母和姨母。Aunt也可以用于对养育自己的女性长辈的爱称，但日常生活中比較少用Aunt來称呼沒有親屬關係的人。亲姨母、亲姑母属于二度亲属（英语：Second-degree relative），有25%的基因重合。如果是父母的同父异母或者同母异父的姐妹，则属于三度亲属，有12.5％的遗传重合。但其他的Aunt通常没有基因重合，因为她并非血亲。
父母的Aunt在英文中一律称为grand-aunt（或grand aunt、grandaunt、great-aunt）；在中文中，父亲的×母则为×祖母，母亲的×母则为×外祖母。与Aunt相应的男性称谓为Uncle；中文则分化为伯父、叔父、姑父、舅父和姨父。与Aunt相对的称呼（即对Aunt的自称）为Niece或Nephew；在中文中，与父系Aunt（伯母、叔母、姑母）相对的是侄和侄女，与母系Aunt（舅母、姨母）相对的是甥和甥女。
中国传统文化中的亲属称谓更为具体，如伯母、叔母、姑母、舅母、姨母，同时要避免提到长辈的名字。但在西方文化中，通常采用统一称呼（如Aunt）加名字，即使对家中长辈也可直呼其名。
在中国传统文化中，对陌生人的称呼是通过把亲属称呼扩大化（拟亲属关系）来实现的。用父系血亲的“伯父”、“叔父”来称呼年长一辈的陌生男性，而用“伯母”和“婶婶”（伯父、叔父的配偶）来称呼年长一辈的陌生女性。近来常见用来自母系的血亲称呼“阿姨”来取代伯母、婶婶，和叔叔一起称呼年长一辈的陌生男女。这种变化，即是受英文“Uncle”和“Aunt”的影响。如馬新地區，音譯為「安娣」，來稱呼輩分或年紀較大的女性。
大多数语言都与英语类似，对所有父辈亲属的称呼，只区分男女。如英语使用Uncle来表示所有男性的父辈亲属，使用Aunt来表示所有女性的父辈亲属。但在某些文化中，还会按照父系和母系加以区分，如中国文化、阿尔巴尼亚文化、斯拉夫文化及波斯文化。
此外，某些文化也与中国文化类似，也有不同的词汇来区分父辈的血亲与姻亲。例如，波斯语称叔伯为“amou”，而称他们的妻子为“zan-amou”，意即叔伯的妻子。
由于在许多文化中Aunt这个词都被赋予了年长但又睿智、友善的形象，该词已被很多人用作充满爱意的昵称。众多女性的儿童节目主持人使用“Aunt”作为她们的昵称，比如汉妮·利普斯（英语：Hannie Lips）（“Tante Hannie”，Tante是Aunt的法语和德语）、莉莉·彼得森（Lily Petersen，“Tante Lily”）和特里·范·金德林（英语：Terry Van Ginderen）（“Tante Terry”）。一些女作家也曾经使用它，如劳拉·瓦伦丁（英语：Laura Valentine）（“Aunt Louisa”）、哈丽雅特·纽厄尔·伍兹·贝克（英语：Harriette Newell Woods Baker）（“Aunt Hattie”）、Elma Dalhuijsen-Nui（“Tante Kaat”）和亨丽特·罗兰·霍尔斯特（英语：Henriette Roland Holst）（“Tante Jet”）。新西兰电台主持人黛西阿姨（英语：Aunt Daisy）也是一个例子。
一些艺人也会这样使用，例如荷兰歌手海伦娜·波尔德（Helena Polder，利恩阿姨（英语：Tante Leen））、美国民谣歌手莫莉·杰克逊阿姨（英语：Aunt Molly Jackson）、乡村歌手萨阿姨（英语：Aunt Sap）、夏威夷音乐家热那亚·基韦阿姨（英语：Aunty Genoa Keawe）、爱丽丝·纳马克鲁亚阿姨（英语：Auntie Alice Namakelua）和诺娜阿姨（英语：Auntie Nona）（Aunty和Auntie均为Aunt的别称）、摇滚乐队克里斯特阿姨（英语：Auntie Christ）和玛丽阿姨（英语：Aunt Mary）、迪斯科乐队大妈迪斯科事业（英语：Aunty Disco Project）和爵士乐队鲁比阿姨的爵士甜宝贝（英语：Aunt Ruby's Sweet Jazz Babies）。一个特别的色情女演员，朱丽叶·安德森（Juliet Anderson），自称为佩格阿姨（英语：Aunt Peg），而YouTube达人费利西亚·A·奥戴尔（Felicia A.O'Dell）则自称为菲阿姨（英语：Auntie Fee）。
由于Aunt一词在形象上魅力独特，有些建筑也使用Aunt来命名，例如意大利安全屋安娜阿姨家（英语：Aunt Anna's）和荷兰餐厅Koosje阿姨（英语：Tante Koosje）。有些公司也类似，如英国广播公司（Auntie Beeb）、安妮阿姨家（英语：Auntie Anne's）、贝茜阿姨家（英语：Aunt Bessie's）、凯莉阿姨家（英语：Aunt Carrie's）、格林阿姨酒店（英语：Aunty Green Hotel）、杰迈玛阿姨（英语：Aunt Jemima）、朱迪阿姨杂志（英语：Aunt Judy's Magazine）、内莉阿姨红球甘蓝（英语：Aunt Nellie's Red Cabbage）、斯普赖植物起酥油（英语：Spry Vegetable Shortening）（詹妮阿姨（英语：Aunt Jenny））、卢特阿姨图书（英语：Aunt Lute Books）和企鹅俱乐部（北极阿姨）。此外，萨莉阿姨（英语：Aunt Sally）是一种英格兰传统游戏，参与者向一个假的老太太的头投掷棍棒。
睿智或公正的Aunt也出现在众多虚构作品中。
得克薩斯大學奧斯汀分校

德克薩斯大學奧斯汀分校（英語：University of Texas at Austin；簡稱德州大學、UT或UT-Austin），是一所位於美国德克萨斯州奥斯汀市的著名公立研究型大學，德州大學是德克薩斯大學系統的旗艦級大學，為該系統規模最大的教育機構。成立於1883年，亦為最初的八所公立常春藤学校之一。
奥斯汀德州大学是德州及美國聯邦主要的学术研究中心，每年的研究经费高达6億美元。教職員中亦不乏有諾貝爾獎、普立茲獎、沃爾夫獎、艾美獎以及美國國家科學獎章的得主。截止2020年10月，UT的历届校友、教授及研究人员中，共有13位诺贝尔奖得主、1位菲尔兹奖得主、2位图灵奖得主。根據美國新聞與世界報導的2024年排名，德州大學奧斯汀分校在美國全國大學(USNews)中排名第32位，在全球大學中排名第43位。
同時，德州大学也是杰出的体育运动大学，2002年被運動畫刊评为“美国最佳体育大学”。德州大学美式足球队于2006年一月贏得玫瑰盃夺得全国冠军。
早在1827年，德州還是屬於墨西哥的一州時，就在當時的憲法中計劃成立公立的高等教育單位。1836年德克薩斯共和國獨立後，在所發布的憲法中明訂要在境內設立兩所大學或學院；1839年的議會中立法同意撥出奧斯汀土地中的四十英畝，做為高等教育之用。故德州大學常以四十英畝（40 acres）為名，以為溯本追源。但興建大學的計劃，因為併入美國與發生南北戰爭一路延宕。直到1881年，奧斯汀才確定為這所公立大學的所在地。1883年9月15日，德州大學正式成立招生授課。
德州大學主校區位於德州首府奥斯汀市中心，距離离德州政府总部不到一里。距離穿過城市而流的科羅拉多河不遠。到河邊慢跑散步是當地居民的享受之一；德州大學的划船隊，常在清早或傍晚在河中練習。奧斯汀已多次名列全美最佳居住城市前十名，为美丽的山川湖泊环抱，景色宜人。
在民風較偏保守的美國南方，奧斯汀是少數主張自由開放的都市，此與主張獨立創新的大學校風，相輔相成；是美国的政治中心之一。在2000年高科技產業大張旗鼓之時，由於各大廠在此設點，加上德州大學穩定提供高知識份子投入產業，奥斯汀一度被稱为“矽山”，於加州聖荷西的矽谷，互相輝應，繁榮時期，有經常性班機由奧斯汀直飛聖荷西及台北，以便利來往此三處之商務人士。
曾是全球最大的计算机系统公司戴尔，德州大學附近的宿舍是其摇篮。戴爾電腦的創辦人麥可.戴爾在1984年還是個大二學生時，便以1000美金當資本，以宿舍當廠房，成立了組裝PC的小公司。後來事業擴大，麥可．戴爾便輟學在奧斯汀當地增蓋了廠房，以建造足以供應需求的機器。德州儀器及IBM等歷史大廠也約略在此前後在奧斯汀增資建廠。高科技人材開始湧入此地。隨著奧斯汀的發展，總部原設在奧斯汀的戴爾電腦，因發展所需，把總部遷到了北邊接鄰的圓石城，也間接把奧斯汀城市的版圖向北擴張。
另外，奥斯汀的街头音乐和夜生活也为它在民间赢得“音乐之都”的称号；各類的現場音樂，在奧斯汀各處常有所見。在美國享有知名的第六街，酒吧毗鄰而設，許多歌手在此發跡，也常是青年們工作課餘流連之處。
除奥斯汀主校区外，Pickle研究校区（J. J. Pickle Research Campus）位于奥斯汀北部，內有各系實驗室及研究單位，包括建造全世界第四快超級電腦（2008年）的德州先進運算中心（英语：Texas Advanced Computing Center）（Texas Advanced Computing Center）；而该校天文系亦负责位于德州西部戴维斯山区的麥克唐納天文台。
德州大學奧斯汀分校被選為公立常春藤學校之一，在美國新聞與世界報導的2024年排名為全美國大學第32位，全球大學中排名第43位。
德州大學現有十八所學院及一獨立教學單位，括弧內為該學院成立年份：
UT-Austin从建校以来就成为德州的宠儿。今天，在德州常会被误认为德州州歌的曲子—德州之眼〈Eyes Of Texas〉，其实原本是1903年，UT-Austin的田径队队歌〈University track team song〉。現在，這首歌是德州大學在各種體育賽事或聚會必有的節目，也是美國大學校歌裡最著名的之一。曾有引用此旋律改編成中文兒歌。
德州農工大學是德州大學歷史上主要的對手之一。每年感恩節後的星期五，兩所大學所進行的美式足球競賽，已成了全美感恩節的必要節目之一。兩隊出發比賽之前會在當地舉行誓師遊行活動，德州農工大學著名的高塔火把便是為此球賽而每年搭建。除了體育活動以外，在學術及研究上，德州大學的自由開放與德州農工的紀律規範，這兩所大學幾乎從開辦至今便一直相較相長。
奧克拉荷馬大學是德州大學對外州的首要死敵，除了兩所大學分別是兩州的旗艦級大學之外，尤其近十年來，兩所大學的美式足球大約都在全美排名前十名，競爭格外激烈。自1900來，每年美式足球球季中舉辦的對抗賽，總是大家注目的焦點，因為這場比賽幾乎決定了其中勝出的學校，會有機會角逐全美冠軍的可能。這場比賽特別摒棄例行賽主客場的制度，選擇在兩地的中點達拉斯的棉花碗体育场進行。
此外，阿肯色大學在過去同屬西南聯盟時，也是備受矚目的競爭對手。近年來，德克薩斯理工大學在各方面的突飛猛進，也漸漸把德州大學當成目標之一。
截至2018年度，UT-Austin的國際學生共有6043名，其中，中國留學生人數的第1位，2至5名分別為韓國、印度、墨西哥、台灣。學生社團分別有中國學生會與台灣同學會等。
UT Austin公共交通便利，有多条由Capitol Metro运营的公交线路经过校园，此外还有UT自己的校车系统（UT Shuttle，编号为6XX）。
奥斯汀德州大学拥有超过45万名校友，是美国大学中拥有最多校友的大学之一。德克萨斯大学校友中既有诺贝尔奖得主、也有普利策奖得主和图灵奖得主，还有3位是国家科学奖章获得者。现任教授中有13位美國國家科學院院士、32位美國国家工程院院士 (其中工程院士數量為全美第4多、僅次於麻省理工學院、斯坦福大學、伯克利加州大学）。

The Hive, Singapore

The Hive, also known as Learning Hub South, is a building located in Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. The S$45 million building was designed by Thomas Heatherwick and completed in 2015. Colloquially, the building is known as the "dim sum basket building" due to its likeness to the steamer baskets used to contain dim sum.
The Hive was a finalist for the 2015 World Architecture Festival Commercial Mixed-Use Award in the Future Projects subcategory.
Designed by British designer Thomas Heatherwick, The Hive is Heatherwick Studio's first major building in Asia. The building consists of 12 eight-storey towers arranged around a public atrium. The towers taper towards the base and house 56 corner-less classrooms. The concrete stair and lift cores between the towers are embedded with 700 drawings by British artist Sara Fanelli, depicting images from science, art and literature.
The building has received mixed reviews, with the Architectural Review saying that while "there is much to admire" about the building, "it gave off something of a forlorn car-park aesthetic".
Mee goreng

Mee goreng, or mi goreng, refers to fried noodles in the Malay-speaking cultures of several countries, such as the Southeast Asian states of Brunei, Malaysia, and Singapore.
A notable variant, mee goreng mamak is associated with Mamak stalls operated by Muslim Indian communities within the region, and is often spicy in taste.
Numerous distinct variations of mee goreng may be found in Brunei, Malaysia, and Singapore.
One version is believed to have been developed by Indian immigrants, often of Tamil Muslim origin, who drew influences from other cultures and incorporated them into their cooking. This style of mee goreng is regarded as a dish unique to the region, as it cannot be found in India.
There is no standard method of preparing mee goreng or any derivative variant which use other types of noodles, as each dining establishment employs different techniques and ingredients. A typical method may involve stir-frying the noodles with vegetables, eggs, and other ingredients such as tofu and meat. Common ingredients for Indian-style mee goreng may include spices, tomato sauce, potatoes, cabbage, and sweet soy sauce. A slice of lime, usually of the calamansi variety, is often placed at the side of the plate as a garnish.
In Malaysia, Mamak-style mee goreng is prepared and sold at Mamak stalls around the country. The word mamak is from the Tamil term for maternal uncle; in Malaysia and Singapore, it is traditionally used an honorific to respectfully address shopkeepers or proprietors of dining establishments. Mee goreng mamak is often associated with Indian Muslim cuisine offered at Mamak stalls, and is regarded as a fusion food that incorporates Chinese yellow noodles with seasonings and spices typical of Malay and Indian cuisine.
Maggi goreng, or Maggi mee goreng, is a variation of Mamak-style mee goreng. It uses Maggi brand of instant noodles, prepared with hot water before stir-frying, instead of fresh yellow noodles.
In Singapore, mee goreng is often associated with cooking typical of Indian Muslim cuisine, known for its frequent use of ingredients such as lamb or mutton. A famous variant developed by restaurateurs of Chinese ethnic origin for their restaurant in Punggol during the 1970s was cooked with seafood, bean sprouts, coriander, and a sambal (spicy chilli relish) sauce made up of twelve herbs and spices.
Mee goreng exists in Sri Lankan cuisine due to historical Malay cultural influences.
AXA Tower

AXA Tower, also known as 8 Shenton Way and formerly The Treasury and Temasek Tower, was the 16th-tallest skyscraper in Singapore, at 234.7 m (770 ft), and the tallest cylindrical building in the world. In 2023, it became the tallest building to ever be voluntarily demolished.
Built in 1986 for the Ministry of Finance of Singapore as the Treasury Building, with 52 storeys it at once became one of the most prominent buildings in the city's business district.
The Advertising agency BBDO Worldwide later had its Asia Pacific Headquarters in the building, and the 14th floor housed the Embassy of Belgium.
When the Ministry of Finance relocated to The Treasury on High Street, the building was transferred to Temasek Holdings, a government-owned corporation, and renamed as Temasek Tower. It was later acquired by CapitaLand. In April 2007, when the building was still known as Temasek Tower, CapitaLand sold it to MGP Raffle Pte Ltd, and it was renamed as the AXA Tower.
On 6 May 2020, Alibaba Group agreed to buy a 50 per cent stake in AXA Tower, valuing the property at S$1.68 billion.
At the beginning of May 2022, AXA Tower was closed to the public for demolition with all tenants having relocated. On 7 July, plans were approved by the Urban Redevelopment Authority for a consortium consisting of Alibaba, Perennial Holdings, and local partners, to redevelop the site of the AXA Tower into a new 63-story building with a height of 1,001 feet (305 metres), making the new building the tallest skyscraper ever approved in Singapore. The mixed-use building, Skywaters Residences, will be mostly made up of office, hotel, and residential spaces, with an observation level and some retail spaces. It is planned to be completed by 2028. The developers have since engaged Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the firm responsible for the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, to design the new building.
The structure consisted of steel beams cantilevered from a cylindrical concrete core, allowing full 360° views at the perimeter, unobstructed by perimeter columns. The tower housed sixteen double deck elevators supplied by Otis.
List of poker playing card nicknames

This list of poker playing card nicknames has some nicknames for the playing cards in a 52-card deck, as used in poker.
The following sets of playing cards can be referred to by the corresponding names in card games that include sets of three or more cards, particularly 3 and 5 card draw, Texas Hold 'em and Omaha Hold 'em. The nicknames would often be used by players when revealing their hands, or by spectators and commentators watching the game. With TV and web broadcasting of Poker tournaments, nicknames became much more popular all over the world.
The following is a list of nicknames for pairs of two playing cards, usually hole cards, used in poker derivatives such as Texas hold 'em and Omaha hold 'em poker. These nicknames are usually used by the player when announcing their hand or by spectators or commentators who are watching the game.
The phrase one-eyed royals is jargon referring to the three face cards showing only one eye: the Jack of Spades (J♠), Jack of Hearts (J♥) and King of Diamonds (K♦). The faces depicted on these three cards are shown in profile, resulting in only one eye being visible. The variant form "one-eyed Jacks" excludes the King of Diamonds. The cards are also sometimes referred to as "one-eyed Jacks and the Man with the Axe", which relates to the King of Diamonds being the only one to bear an axe instead of a sword. These cards are frequently designated as wildcards in home games of draw poker. Other such phrases include "Suicide King", denoting the King of Hearts (K♥) bearing a sword through his head, and 'Bedside Queen', denoting the Queen of Spades (Q♠) bearing a staff that resembles a wooden bedpost. The name "Allergic Queen" also refers to the Queens facing away from the flowers they hold.
Har gow

Har gow (Chinese: 蝦餃; pinyin: xiājiǎo; Jyutping: haa1 gaau2; lit. 'shrimp jiao'), also anglicized as ha gow, hau kau, or ha kao, is a traditional Cantonese dumpling served as dim sum. It is made of shrimp meat, and steamed in a flour wrapper. After cooking, the wrapper becomes somewhat translucent, and therefore ha gow is sometimes called crystal shrimp dumplings (水晶蝦餃).
The dumpling is sometimes called a shrimp bonnet for its pleated shape. This dish is often served together with shumai; when served in such a manner the two items are collectively referred to as ha gow-siu mai (Chinese: 蝦餃燒賣; pinyin: xiājiǎo shāomài; Jyutping: haa1 gaau2 siu1 maai2; Cantonese Yale: hā gáau sīu máai).
Ha gow, shumai, cha siu bao, and egg tarts are considered the classic dishes of Cantonese dim sum cuisine and referred to as The Four Heavenly Kings. (Chinese: 四大天王; pinyin: sì dà tiān wáng; Cantonese Yale: sei daaih tīn wòhng).
These shrimp dumplings are transparent and smooth. Yi Zhen restaurant (怡珍茶楼) in Wufeng Village (五鳳村), Guangzhou was the first restaurant to serve Har Gow. It was called Wufeng Har Gow (五鳳鮮蝦餃) at that time. In a poem by Ho Shihuang (何世晃), a well-known Cantonese cook and author of “Classic Cantonese Pastry Techniques” (經典粵點技法), har gow is described as follows:
English translation:
The poem shows that nice and juicy filling inside a thin, soft and translucent wrapping are the essentials of an authentic har gow.
This dish is said to be the one that the skill of a dim sum chef is judged on. Traditionally, ha gow should have at least seven and preferably ten or more pleats imprinted on its wrapper. The skin must be thin and translucent, yet be sturdy enough not to break when picked up with chopsticks. It must not stick to the paper, container or the other ha gow in the basket. The shrimp must be cooked well, but not overcooked. The amount of meat should be generous, yet not so much that it cannot be eaten in one bite.
Sushi Go!

Sushi Go! is a card game designed by Phil Walker-Harding and published by Gamewright Games in 2013. It involves two to five players collecting cards representing sushi or associated items.
Sushi Go! is a card game in which between two and five players collect cards representing sushi or associated items to score the most points. Some of the cards are worth points individually, but are worth more points as part of a set.
Sushi Roll was released in 2019 and branded as a combination of the original Sushi Go! game with dice.
The game plays very similar to the original, with the same types of sushi and scoring making an appearance. However, the cards of the original are replaced with dice with each side depicting a different sushi icon. Each turn, players roll their ‘hand’ of dice and choose one to keep. The remaining dice are then passed to the left and the process is repeated until no dice remain. Players then score the sushi they have collected, according to the scoring rules of each type. The game is likewise played over 3 rounds, with the highest score winning the game.
Sushi Go!: Spin Some for Dim Sum was released in 2023 as “a new delicious spin on the classic Sushi Go game” for 2 to 6 players.
The game includes a mechanical spin table which holds 6 baskets. Each turn, players must take the top card from the basket in front of them or use chopstick tokens from their limited supply to spin the table. This action rotates which basket is in front of each player, allowing players to strategically reach their desired cards. Similar to the original game, each type of sushi card awards a variable amount of points depending on different conditions. The game is played until all players have 12 cards, upon which their points are tallied and the highest scoring player wins.
Sushi Go!: Spin Some for Dim Sum continues with the same artwork and scoring styles as the other titles in the Sushi Go! series. However, a unique highlight of this game is the “Steamed Bun” plushie, awarded to any player who draws a steamed bun card and allows them to spin the table without using their chopstick tokens.
In 2017 the game was reviewed for the Polish board game magazine Rebel Times by Maciej Poleszak. The reviewer praised the game for its simplicity and speed, visual design as well as for enjoyable play and the interesting ideas on scoring cards in a number of different ways. He also noted that the game likely works better with more than two players.
James Austin, writing for The New York Times in 2022, described the game as simple and fast, and praised the card art as adorable. Austin additionally commented that the game is "easy to learn but hard to master. It's as fun to play at family game night as it is out at a bar with friends." The reviewer also compared the game to the later Sushi Go Party! (also designed by Phil Walker-Harding), noting that the latter has a greater variety of cards but is less portable.
List of cement manufacturers in Rwanda

This is the list of companies that manufacture cement in Rwanda.
As of February 2018, Rwanda's cement needs were reported to amount to about 50,000 metric tonnes every month. At that time, the established factories in Rwanda were able to produce enough cement to meet approximately 54 percent of the national cement needs (27 metric tonnes, monthly), leaving 46 percent (23 metric tonnes, every month), to be imported from regional manufactures. Among the regional manufacturers that supply cement to Rwanda are (a) Hima Cement Limited of Uganda (b) Dangote Industries Tanzania (c) Lake Cement Tanzania and (d) Tanga Cement of Tanzania.
As of December 2022, national cement demand had increased to approximately 950,000 tonnes annually, with national annual production estimated at 480,000 tonnes. By August 2023, national output had increased to 600,000 metric tonnes which was about 50 percent national demand at that time. The commissioning of Anjia Cement Limited in August 2023, with planned annual production of 1,000,000 tonnes of is expected bridge that gap.

List of countries by food energy intake

Food consumption is the amount of food available for human consumption as estimated by Our World in Data. However, the actual food consumption may be lower than the quantity shown as food availability depends on the magnitude of wastage and losses of food in the household, for example during storage, in preparation and cooking, as plate-waste or quantities fed to domestic animals and pets, thrown or given away.
According to the FAO, the average minimum daily energy requirement is approximately 8,400 kilojoules (2,000 kcal) per adult and 4,200 kilojoules (1,000 kcal) a child. This data is presented in kilojoules, as most countries today use the SI unit kilojoules as their primary measurement for food energy intake, with the exception of the USA, Canada, and the UK, which use kilocalories or both.
Regions of the world by food consumption per capita in kilojoules per capita per day from 1961 to 2018.
Chato District

Chato District is one of the five districts in Geita Region of northwestern Tanzania. Its administrative centre is the town of Chato. The main ethnic group in the district are the Sukuma. The late John Magufuli, who used to be as President of Tanzania from 2015—2021, was born in Chato.
The Chato District was formed around 2005 within Kagera Region after being separated from Biharamulo District. In 2012, it was transferred to the newly created Geita Region.
In March 2006, Rwandan refugees who had settled in the district were evicted. The following year, a few who had been evicted improperly were allowed to come back.
The district hosts the largest airport in the Region the Geita Airport, 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) south of Chato Town.
The paved truck road T4 (from Mwanza to Bukoba) passes through southern part of the Chao district.
Chato District neighbours Lake Victoria to the northeast, Geita District to the east, the districts of Mbogwe and Bukombe to the south, and Biharamulo District of the Kagera Region to the west and north.
The annual rainfall in Chato District is adequate for crops, being between 700 and 1,000 millimetres (28 and 39 in) per year. The maximum temperature averages around 30.5 °C (86.9 °F) and the minimum temperatures around 26.6 °C (79.9 °F).
The Chato District is divided into 23 wards:
The primary economic activity is subsistence farming without irrigation, using only rain.
Common crops for local consumption are bananas, beans, maize, cassavas, and sweet potatoes.
Commercial farming is not well developed, but cotton, sunflower, tobacco and coffee are grown for sale.
Livestock rearing is usually an adjunct to farming, with some commercial ranches.
Rubondo Island National Park is located on an island in Lake Victoria just off the coast of Chato District. It can be reached by ferry from Kasenda, a village in the north of the district.
List of countries by exports

The following article lists different countries and territories by their exports according to data from the World Bank. Included are merchandise exports and service exports. Merchandise exports are goods that are produced in one country and sold to another country. Service exports refer to the cross-border sale or supply of services by residents of one country to residents of another country. Some countries have significantly high export figures relative to their economy's size (i.e. Netherlands, Singapore and UAE) due to their high amount of re-exports.
List of reported UFO sightings

This is a list of notable reported sightings of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) some of which include related claims of close encounters of the second or third kind or alien abduction. UFOs are generally considered to include any perceived aerial phenomenon that cannot be immediately identified or explained. Upon investigation, most UFOs are identified as known objects or atmospheric phenomena, while a small number remain unexplained. UFOs have been referred to using a range of terms including the more specific "flying saucer" and the more general term "unidentified anomalous phenomena" (UAP). "UAP" is sometimes used to avoid cultural associations with UFO conspiracy theories.
Although often viewed as abnormal, UFO sightings are reported frequently. During the United States' initial 1947 wave, over 800 sightings were reported in the news. The British Ministry of Defence receives hundreds of reports each year. In Brazil, pilots alone report dozens of annual sightings. A small portion of reported sightings have lasting cultural significance, interpreted through the cultural and technological expectations of the time.
The lists below contain UFO reports mentioned above, along with less notable UFO reports from the specific areas.
Born to Be Sold

"Born to Be Sold" was the ninth single to be released by UK band Transvision Vamp. It became a hit in late 1989, peaking at number 22 on the UK Singles Chart.
Members of Swing Out Sister left ironic review on this single for British music newspaper Record Mirror. As per Andy Connell the song is "a dictionary of every rock'n'roll cliché" that readers "ever heard". But it is "resounding hit nevertheless".

Mátrix Móvil

Mátrix Móvil es una escultura de Gabriel Orozco hecha a partir de un esqueleto del mamífero, colocada en el vestíbulo principal de la Biblioteca José Vasconcelos, al norte de la Ciudad de México.​
Este esqueleto fue recogido de la Reserva de la biosfera El Vizcaíno, en Baja California Sur.​ El trabajo de Orozco consistió en decorarlo con curvas trazadas a partir de la estructura ósea natural.
Orozco concibió esta creación al ver la enorme estructura de la biblioteca, que le hizo pensar en "un animal grande flotando, una ballena". Dice: "El esqueleto es como una máquina, por lo que el dibujo la dinamiza."
Museo de la Ballena y Ciencias Del Mar

El Museo de la Ballena y las Ciencias del Mar es un museo ubicado en la La Paz, Baja California Sur que está dedicado a la difusión, promoción, estudio y conservación de los cetáceos y el ambiente que habitan.​​
Además, ganó una beca otorgada por la UNESCO para retomar sus operaciones de retiro de redes fantasma en la región para el cuidado y protección de la vaquita marina.​
El museo fue creado en 1995 por un grupo de personas entusiastas de la naturaleza marina de Baja California Sur. En ese entonces, lo llamaron Museo Ballenero A.C.​
Posteriormente, en 2016, Francisco Gómez Díaz, director del recinto, realizó una reapertura, pero ya no sólo como museo sino como taller de osteología, el primero abierto al público y el segundo de forma privada.​​
El inmueble se encontraba en el malecón de La Paz; sin embargo, debido al incremento en la tarifa de la renta, en 2018, se vieron obligados a cerrarlo temporalmente y buscar una reubicación, incluso no descartaron que éste se fuera del estado sudcaliforniano, pues la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México se encontraba interesada en establecerlo en la Ciudad de México.​​​
En 2021 reabrió sus puertas en otra ubicación conformando una de la colecciones de mamíferos marinos más completa en Latinoamérica, según especialistas
Francisco Gómez Díaz, director del recinto, se ha dedicado a estudiar y compartir hallazgos sobre las distintas especies del mar que visitan las aguas de Baja California Sur y junto con sus hijas han realizado diversos trabajos de curación para exhibir delfines, ballenas, orcas, cachalotes, vaquitas marinas, tortugas y otras especies del mar.​​
El museo alberga una exposición permanente acerca de la teoría de la evolución, orden, clasificación, historia de la cacería, alimentación, distribución, apareamientos e influencia de los cetáceos en el arte rupestre.​​
El museo cuenta con un taller de osteología en donde se han logrado restaurar ejemplares que se encuentran exhibidos dentro del mismo museo, pero también en el Universum de la UNAM, en el Museo de Historia Natural y el Museo de la Evolución en Puebla.​​
Además de la difusión del ecosistema marino, el museo atiende denuncias de mamíferos marinos varados en las costas de La Baja Sur y también quitan redes fantasmas en las que especies como la vaquita marina, quedan atrapadas.​​
Para realizar estos rescates, el museo cuenta con su buque de investigación llamado Narval y que cuenta con equipo tecnológico y personal capacitado para llevar localizar y extraer las redes ilegales.​
También son miembros fundadores de la Red de Varamientos de BCS y colaboran con instituciones como la Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Sur, Procuraduría Federal de Protección al Ambiente, el Centro Interdisciplinario de Ciencias Marinas.​
Barbas de ballena

Las barbas de ballena, o simplemente ballenas, son las láminas elásticas de queratina que poseen los misticetos en el maxilar superior y que utilizan para alimentarse.​ El término ballena proviene del latín ballaena, considerado un préstamo de una lengua previa mediterránea, al igual que el griego phalaina.​
Los misticetos carecen de dientes (a diferencia de los odontocetos), en su lugar tienen filas de láminas llamadas «barbas» en el maxilar superior. Son lisas, flexibles, con bordes deshilachados, colocadas en dos filas paralelas, semejantes a enormes peines. Las barbas están compuestas de queratina, la misma sustancia de la que está compuesto el pelo, los cuernos, las uñas o las plumas.
Según la especie de misticeto, una barba puede tener de menos de 30 cm en el caso del rorcual albiblanco, a los 4,5 m de longitud en la ballena de Groenlandia. Su número oscila entre las 150 de la ballena gris y las 400 de la yubarta o el rorcual azul.​
Curiosamente los misticetos poseen pequeños dientes durante su fase fetal, pero van desapareciendo mientras se desarrollan y acaban siendo sustituidos por barbas permanentes antes de nacer.​
Las barbas de ballena desempeñan el papel más importante en el proceso de alimentación llamado «alimentación por filtrado»: abren sus mandíbulas mientras nadan, después las cierran, usan su garganta y su lengua para que el agua vuelva a salir de su boca a través de las barbas, lo que permite que el agua salga mientras captura las presas (pequeños peces, copépodos, kril...) entre los finos pelos de las puntas las barbas.​ Los misticetos son el único grupo vertebrado que utiliza este método de alimentación (los flamencos y las focas cangrejeras usan métodos similares, pero no tienen barbas) y con este sistema se han desarrollado hasta alcanzar tamaños inmensos.
El tejido de las barbas se compone de fibras longitudinales de las que resulta un cuerpo muy elástico, flexible, de una resistencia incorruptible y duración ilimitada,​ por lo que eran utilizadas antes de la invención del plástico y otros materiales sintéticos para la fabricación de múltiples objetos como las venencias y otros, pero sobre todo en corsetería (todavía hoy se habla de las «ballenas» en vestidos, corsés, ...) y para fabricar las varillas (llamadas también ballenas) de paraguas y sombrillas debido a su solidez, ligereza y elasticidad.​​
Balaenoptera bonaerensis

El rorcual austral o Minke antártico (Balaenoptera bonaerensis) es una especie de cetáceo misticeto de la familia Balaenopteridae.
La traducción del latín de Balaenoptera bonaerenses sería “ballena alada bonaerense”. En cuanto a su nombre común, recibe el nombre de rorcual austral debido a que es común verle en los meses de verano en aguas de la Antártida. Otro nombre por el que se le conoce, Minke antártico, se debe a una curiosa historia. Según esta, en un barco ballenero noruego, capitaneado por Svend Foyn, un marinero apellidado Meincke dio la voz de alarma al avistar a lo lejos un rorcual azul. Sin embargo, grande fue la sorpresa del resto de la tripulación al ver que se trataba de estas pequeñas especies que rondan los siete metros de longitud. A causa de esto, y como forma de broma, los balleneros comenzaron a llamar a estos pequeños animales "rorcuales de Meincke", que al pasar el tiempo se trasformó en rorcuales Minke.​​​
El rorcual austral y el rorcual aliblanco son las especies más pequeñas de rorcuales (la ballena franca pigmea es el cetáceo misticeto más pequeño que existe). Su longitud varía de 7,2 a 11 metros y su peso oscila entre 5,8 y 9,1 toneladas. En promedio, las hembras son aproximadamente un metro más largas que los machos. Su dorso es gris oscuro y el vientre blanco.
El rorcual austral habita en todos los océanos del hemisferio sur. Durante el verano se encuentra cerca de la Antártida, pero se mueve más hacia el norte en invierno, superponiendo su rango de distribución con el rorcual aliblanco (la otra variedad de rorcual Minke).
Los datos sobre el estado de conservación del rorcual antártico se consideran insuficientes en la lista roja de UICN, por ser “incapaces de proporcionar estimaciones confiables y actualizadas”.​
Eubalaena

Eubalaena es un género de cetáceos misticetos de la familia Balaenidae,​ conocidos comúnmente como ballenas francas debido a que nadan lentamente y flotan después de muertas; es por esto que los balleneros las consideraban las más fáciles o "francas" de cazar.
Presentan una cabeza roma con enormes hileras de barbas, cuerpo grueso, azul oscuro, con manchas blancas en la parte ventral, y carecen de aleta dorsal. Se alimentan de plancton y tienen una cría cada tres o cuatro años.
Desde 2016 es la imagen del billete de 200 pesos de la República Argentina.

Museum of Osteology

The Museum of Osteology, located in Oklahoma City, U.S., is a private museum devoted to the study of bones and skeletons (osteology). The museum displays over 450 skeletons of animal species from all over the world. With another 7,000 specimens as part of the collection, but not on display, this is the largest privately held collection of osteological specimens in the world. The museum is an entity of its parent company, Skulls Unlimited International.
The museum focuses on the form and function of the skeletal system with numerous educational and taxonomic displays featuring all five classes of vertebrate. The collections housed by the Museum of Osteology are the result of over 40 years of collecting by Jay Villemarette. The collections consist of approximately 7,000 specimens representing over 1,800 species of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish.
The museum hosts educational events targeted towards all age groups. Museum guests also have the opportunity to touch bones and take pictures with fully articulated skeletons.
Jay Villemarette, founder of the company Skulls Unlimited International, Inc., established the museum alongside his family. Skulls Unlimited's offices and processing facilities are located next to the museum. Construction of the museum began in 2004, and it opened to the public on October 1, 2010. Villemarette created the museum with the goal of displaying his collection and making osteology more accessible to the public. In 2015, the Museum of Osteology opened a second location in Orlando, Florida. In 2020, the Florida location closed, and the collections were combined.
The museum offers many exhibits from all five vertebrate classes. There are also floating exhibits throughout the museum and whales hanging from the ceiling. All the specimens on display are cleaned at the Skulls Unlimited building next door, using dermestid beetles before being articulated and then put on display. The exhibits display a wide range of topics, including locomotion, adaptation, and forensic osteology and pathology. The museum also offers scavenger hunts and activities aimed at children and parents.
The Museum of Osteology partners with zoos, aquariums, wildlife centers, nature preserves, sport hunters, and private donors to source its specimens. The museum also displays human skeletons that have been donated to science and purchased by the museum.
The museum has faced criticism for displaying human remains that have been donated to science. Speaking on the topic of body donation in the United States, John Oliver criticized the museum for displaying human bones in ways that the donors may have not intended, saying that "When most people think about donating their bodies to science, they picture it in a reputable educational institution, not in some roadside bone collection, face-down, ass-up, arranged in a formation best described as a Cirque du Soleil performer's favorite sex position".
