Thomas Gerard Tancredo (born December 20, 1945), usually called Tom Tancredo, is an American politician from Colorado. From 1999 to 2009, he was a member of the United States House of Representatives. He represented the state's sixth district. He is a Republican. He is best known for his oppostion to illegal immigration. While George H.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan were president, Tancredo worked in the United States Department of Education. From 1977 to 1981, he was a member of Colorado's state house. He ran for President of the United States in 2008. He also ran for Governor of Colorado in 2010. In the Colorado governor election, he ran as a member of the Constitution Party. He got second place with 36 percent of the vote. This is the best election result ever won by the Constitution Party. The winner of that election was Democrat John Hickenlooper. He won 51 percent of the vote. The Republican candidate, Dan Maes, only won 11 percent. Tancredo's result made the Constitution party a "major party", or a large party, in Colorado. If a party is "major", they get to have their candidate placed near the top of the ballot. They didn't run a candidate in the next election, so they became a "minor", or small party in 2014. Tancredo tried to run for Governor again in 2014 and 2018 as a Republican, but did not win their nomination either time.

The flag of Almería was adopted in 1997 with a smooth red cross and a white back. The cross of Saint George was adopted after the Reconquista by the Reyes Católicos in 1489. Design and symbolism. The meaning of the colors of the flag are as follows: This flag of Almería use two cantons with Saint George's flag, a red cross on the white camp. History. Its origin dates back to the year 1147, when the Genoese army allied with Alfonso VII landed on the Genoese beach of Cabo de Gata to participate in the conquest of Almería from the Almoravids by the Christians. The Genoese banner that corresponds to the Saint George's crosss (Greek cross in gules on a silver field) was adopted by the city as its own symbol after the reconquest by the Roman Catholic Monarchs in 1489.

The snakeheads are part of the freshwater perciform fish family Channidae, found in parts of Africa and Asia. These predatory fish are recognised by their long dorsal fins, large mouths, and shiny teeth. Description. They can breathe air with gills, which allows them to migrate short distances over land and suprabranchial organs, distinguished forms of labyrinth organs that develop as they grow older. Size. Various snakehead species differ largely in size. Dwarf snakeheads (e.g., "Channa orientalis") stay under 25 cm (10 in). Most other snakeheads range from 30 to 90 cm (12 to 35 in). Some species ("C. argus, C. barca, C. marulius, C. micropeltes, and C. striata") can reach 1 m (3 ft 3 in) or more. Diet. When young, snakeheads eat plankton, aquatic insects, and molluscs. As adults, they mostly eat other fish (like carp) or frogs. In rare cases, they may even eat small rodents like rats. History. Snakeheads have a large fossil record, originating back at least 50 million years. They likely originated in the south Himalayan region of the Indian subcontinent. Over time, they spread into Eurasia, Africa, and East Asia. Ecological concerns. Snakeheads can become invasive species when brought to areas where they are not native. Their lack of natural enemies makes them apex predators, causing environmental damage. People sometimes release pet snakeheads into ponds, lakes, and rivers, increasing the invasive problem.
The Singapore freshwater crab ("Johora singaporensis") is a critically endangered species of freshwater crab. It is unique to Singapore and not found anywhere else in the world.  Habitat. Its habitat is primarily freshwater streams, and it can be found in specific locations like Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Bukit Batok, and Bukit Gombak. Conservation efforts. Unfortunately, the population of the Singapore freshwater crab has declined in some areas due to stream acidification. To conserve this species, a collaborative research program between the National parks board (NParks) and the National University of Singapore (NUS) monitors and enhances its population. Critical status. The Singapore freshwater crab is classified as critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Efforts to protect its habitat and raise awareness are crucial for its survival.
Klemetsrud used to be a village, but is now a part of Oslo, Norway. The area is in Søndre Nordstrand borough. The area is south of the Mortensrud station of the Oslo Metro "Line 3". The 'Klemetsrud crossing' ("Klemetsrudkrysset") is in the area. It has an exit ramp from European route E6. The 'Ryen crossing' is 6 km from Klemetsrud. The name "Klemetsrud" comes from the farm, "Klemetsrud gård". As of 2024, Klemetsrud is still also a school district. History. There has been farming in the area, at least since the Middle Ages. The main road between the settlement Enebakk and Galgeberg, is "Enebakk road". Klemetsrud is between those two places. The road goes to "Enebakk church" which might have been built before 1200. In 1867, the farming village got its school building, "Klemetsrud skole".  The Church of Norway built the local church in 1933, "Klemetsrud kirke". The village used to be in Akershus county. In the 20th century, the area became part of the municipality of Oslo.
The white tiger or bleached tiger is a color variation of the Bengal tiger. It is sometimes reported in the wild in the Indian states of Madhya Pradesh, Assam, West Bengal and Bihar in the Sunderbans region and especially in the former State of Rewa. White tigers have the same black stripes as other Bengal tigers but they have a white or near-white coat. The white color in Bengal tigers is a result of a genetic mutation. White Bengal tigers do not have the pigment pheomelanin, which gives the orange color to regular Bengal tigers.  Appearance. White Bengal tigers have a distinctive appearance due to their white or near-white fur. They have the typical black stripes of a tiger, but their coat does not have the orange color found in regular Bengal tigers. Genetics. The white fur is because the tiger does not have the pigment pheomelanin, which is responsible for the orange color in regular Bengal tigers. Both parents must carry the unusual gene for white coloring for a white Bengal tiger to be born naturally (a rare occurrence, happening about once in 10,000 births). Dark-striped white individuals have been documented historically in Bengal tiger subspecies and other subspecies. Size and growth. White Bengal tigers tend to grow faster and become heavier than their orange counterparts. They are somewhat bigger at birth and as fully grown adults. Fully grown white male tigers can weigh between and reach up to in length. Conservation and popularity. Currently, several hundred white tigers are in captivity worldwide. About one hundred are found in India. Their unique coloring has made them popular in entertainment and zoos. Their rarity could be because of reduced camouflage, affecting their ability to stalk prey or avoid predators.

When an unstable atomic nucleus undergoes radioactive decay, it makes a decay product. This product is the remaining nuclide left over after the decay process. Decay often occurs in a order called a decay chain, where one nuclide changes into another through a series of steps. For example, uranium-238 decays to thorium-234, which further decays to protactinium-234m, and so on, until it reaches a stable isotope like lead-206. These decay products are crucial for understanding radioactivity and managing radioactive waste. Nuclear Decay Probability. Radioactive decay is a process which depends upon the instability of the particular radioisotope, but which for any given nucleus in a sample is completely unpredictable. The decay process and the observed half-life dependence of radioactivity can be assumed by assuming that single nuclear decays are purely random events. Developing the Decay Expression. Although radioactive decay involves specific events of nuclear disintegration, the number of events is so large that it can be treated like a continuum and the methods of calculus employed to predict the behavior. This can be integrated directly to give ln N = -λt + C where C is a constant of integration. Radioactive Decay Constant. The rate of radioactive decay is typically shown in terms of either the radioactive half-life, or the radioactive decay constant. The decay constant is also sometimes called the disintegration constant. The half-life and the decay constant give the same information, so may be used to characterize decay. Another useful concept in radioactive decay is the average lifetime. The average lifetime is the reciprocal of the decay constant as defined here. For example, free neutrons decay with a halflife of about 10.3 minutes. This corresponds to a decay constant of .067/min and an average lifetime of 14.8 minutes or 890 seconds. Radioactive Decay by Multiple Pathways. Often a radioactive nucleus will decay by two or more pathways, yielding different final products. If there are two modes, leading to products a and b, then we can represent the decay rates by these two modes by partial decay constants λa and λb.Note that the individual decay constants λa and λb never appear in the exponential. Both processes continue to proceed and
