Achalinus zugorum
Achalinus zugorum is a species of snake in the family Xenodermidae. The species, which was described in 2020 from Ha Giang Province, Vietnam, was discovered by Aryeh H. Miller. It is dark in color or iridescent, with scales morphing from blues to greens. It is named for George R. and Patricia B. Zug. Accordingly, the common name Zugs' odd-scaled snake has been coined for this species.

The holotype, an adult male, measures 353 mm (13.9 in) in snout-to-vent length (SVL) and 458 mm (18.0 in) in total length (including tail). A. zugorum is characterized by its odd non-overlapping scale pattern that differentiates its genus from all other snakes. It can be distinguished by the formation of its elliptical-looking dorsal scales, and the absence of everted labial scales.

Dorsal scales
In snakes, the dorsal scales are the longitudinal series of plates that encircle the body, but do not include the ventral scales.

When counting dorsal scales, numbers are often given for three points along the body, for example 19:21:17. These numbers correspond to the number of dorsal scales around the body at a head's length behind the head, at midbody and at a head's length before the vent. If only one number is given, it is for the midbody count.

Dorsal scale are easiest to count diagonally, starting with the paraventral scale row. In doing so, it is often noted that certain scale rows are raised, keeled or smooth as opposed to the others.

Al Hoota Cave
Al Hoota Cave (Arabic: كَهْف ٱلْهُوْتَه, romanized: Kahf Al-Hūtah) is a cave located in Al-Hamra', Ad Dakhiliyah Governorate, Oman, that is 5 km (3.1 miles) long. The cave was first discovered by locals several hundred years ago and was officially opened as a tourist destination in December 2006.

The cave houses over 100 animal species, including Omani blind cave fish, bats, arthropods, mollusks, snails and water beetles.
Stalagmites from this cave yield data on the palaeoclimate. It is believed to be the longest cave in Oman.

The visitors were brought with an electric train into the cave; a dedicated entrance to the cave was built for that purpose. Meanwhile, the train line is dismantled and the visitors are brought on an asphalt road by golf carts into the cave.

Water beetle
A water beetle is a generalized name for any beetle that is adapted to living in water at any point in its life cycle. Most water beetles can only live in fresh water, with a few marine species that live in the intertidal zone or littoral zone. There are approximately 2000 species of true water beetles native to lands throughout the world.

Many water beetles carry an air bubble, called the elytra cavity, underneath their abdomens, which provides an air supply, and prevents water from getting into the spiracles. Others have the surface of their exoskeleton modified to form a plastron, or "physical gill", which permits direct gas exchange with the water. Some families of water beetles have fringed hind legs adapted for swimming, but most do not. Most families of water beetles have larvae that are also aquatic; many have aquatic larvae and terrestrial adults.

Vitis silvestrii
Vitis silvestrii (known locally as hu bei pu tao, which means Hubei grape) is a species of polygamo-dioecious plant in the grape family native to the forested slopes of western Hubei and southern Shaanxi in China from 300 to 1200 meters above sea level. Its flowers appear in May, males having abortive pistils

Vitis silvestrii should not be confused with the very similarly named V. sylvestris Bartram (Eurasian wild grape), which some botanists and taxonomists believe to be synonymous with V. vinifera ssp. silvestris, the dioecious, ancestral form of V. vinifera. The name silvestrii was chosen to honor the Reverend, or Père, C. Silvestri, an Italian collector of plants specializing in phanerogams, and the collector of this species (on July 3, 1907).

Seed plant
A seed plant or spermatophyte (from Ancient Greek  σπέρμα (spérma) 'seed' and  φυτόν (phutón) 'plant'; lit. 'seed plant'), also called a phanerogam (taxon Phanerogamae) or a phaenogam (taxon Phaenogamae), is any plant that produces seeds. It is a category of embryophyte (i.e. land plant) that includes most of the familiar land plants, including the flowering plants and the gymnosperms, but not ferns, mosses, or algae.

The term phanerogam or phanerogamae is derived from  Ancient Greek φανερός (phanerós), meaning "visible", in contrast to the term "cryptogam" or "cryptogamae" (from Ancient Greek  κρυπτός (kruptós) 'hidden', and γαμέω (gaméō), 'to marry'). These terms distinguish those plants with hidden sexual organs (cryptogamae) from those with visible ones (phanerogamae).

Nabih Youssef
Nabih Youssef, S.E., F.A.S.C.E (May 29, 1944 – July 12, 2024) was an American structural engineer, most recognized for his work in seismic engineering. Youssef is recognized for translating academic structural engineering concepts into practical applications, most notably through the base isolation technique employed in the Los Angeles City Hall renovations. His significant achievements also include advancements in Performance-based building design and the use of a Steel plate shear wall in areas of high seismic risk.

Performance-based building design
Performance-based building design is an approach to the design of any complexity of building, from single-detached homes up to and including high-rise apartments and office buildings. A building constructed in this way is required to meet certain measurable or predictable performance requirements, such as energy efficiency or seismic load, without a specific prescribed method by which to attain those requirements. This is in contrast to traditional prescribed building codes, which mandate specific construction practices, such as stud size and distance between studs in wooden frame construction. Such an approach provides the freedom to develop tools and methods to evaluate the entire life cycle of the building process, from the business dealings, to procurement, through construction and the evaluation of results.
