Fatima Naoot

**Fatima Naoot** ( فاطمه ناعوت ) (born September 18, 1964) is an Egyptian writer and poet. In January 2016, the Egyptian government sentenced Naoot to jail for 3 years after she wrote on Facebook about killing sheep for the Islamic feast Eladha (Sacrifice) in which Muslims slaughter sheep according to Islamic religion

## Work

Naoot was a candidate for the Egyptian parliament.

Naoot wrote several books of poetry and a book of poetry analysis. She also translated collections of poems from English into Arabic.

## Insulting religion

Fatima Naoot always seeks for freedom without any authority even if this authority will belong to any religion. In October she published a post on Facebook was describing "the Eid Al-Adha’s tradition of slaughtering sheep as the “greatest massacre committed by human beings.” Then one candidate from parliament said that "Her aim is to insult Islam". Thus she wrote through Ahram Online report "that humans justified their lust for killing and enjoying the smell of cooking game by attempting to bestow a divine meaning to their actions.”

Because of the law of 1982 which stated that there is from six months to five years and fines of LE500 to LE1000 for anyone who uses religion to promote, through speech, writing, or any other medium, extremist ideas with the aim of spreading discord or to belittle one of the monotheistic religions or their different sects, or to harm national unity. she was put in jail for 3 years and fined 20.000 LE. She said in front of the court that "she did not aim to insult Islam, but she just explained her point of view. Naoot said through Middle east online "I'm not sad about the sentencing as I don't care about going to jail. I'm sad that the efforts of reformists have been wasted”.

THE ARAB NETWORK FOR HUMAN RIGHTS INFORMATION issued a statement saying  "“the recent surge in the prosecution of opinion makers comes in conjunction with a fierce security campaign launched by security bodies against freedom of opinion and expression, with the aim of narrowing the overall climate of freedom of opinion and expression. Such a matter, in turn, makes Egypt one of the most Arab countries that show hostility to freedom of expression as well as press freedom, especially that about 59 journalists have remained in prison so far.” Fatma is not a political figure, she is an Egyptian writer, poet, translator and journalist who always says her point of view.

The old woman treats the sparrow badly and cuts out the sparrow's tongue. After the sparrow flies away, the old man goes to find it in the mountains. When he does, the sparrows give him a choice between two baskets to take home. The basket he picks is filled with many good things. The old woman sees the good things and goes to the sparrows to get a basket for herself. She is greedy and mean when she talks to the sparrows, but they still give her a basket. She is not patient and opens the basket before she gets home.

Southern English is usually used in Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma, Georgia and parts of Florida. Modern day Southern English dialects have been used in the following states: they include Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, southern Iowa, south central Indiana, southern Ohio and Kansas.

The dialects are also used in some parts of the Mid-Atlantic States.

In Southern English, people use terms like _ain't_, _you was_, _fixin to_ (rather than _going to_), _been_ (rather than _have been_) and _that there_.

Features of most southern accents include

- **glide-deletion**- the conversion of the _ai_ dipthong into a monophthong

- drawling and\or **vowel breaking**

- **pen\pin merger**

Varieties include

- The Tidewater Accent

- Charleston English

New York City English

**New York City English** (also called **New York English**) is a regional dialect of American English. It is spoken by many people in New York City and the New York metropolitan area. The dialect is known through its use in media. It is most often used in New York City itself and its nearby suburbs. However, it is used all across the metropolitan area.

The dialect is known for dropping the "r" in some words. For example, the word _cart_ in New York sounds similar to _cot_ or _caught_.

Some New York area people say _tawk_ for _talk_ (which sounds like _toak_, producing a « trumpet effect »).

There are many well known people and fictional characters who speak New York English. They include Archie Bunker, Bugs Bunny, Fran Drescher and Marisa Tomei.

The term "budget deficit" is most commonly used to refer to government spending rather than business or individual spending. When referring to accrued federal government deficits, the term "national debt” is used.
Root (disambiguation)

**Root** may refer to:
- Root, a part of a plant
- Nth root, a number such that if N copies of a number are multiplied together, gives the original number
    - Square root, a root of power 2
- Root of a function (zero of a function), an input value that produces an output of zero
- A user account in many operating systems (especially Unix) which has full permissions over the system
- Ancestry.
Root of a function

In mathematics, a **root of a function** _f_ is a number x that turns the value of _f_ to 0:

For example, one of the roots of  is , the only root of  is 0, for  it's -2.5 and so on.

Because polynomials are also functions, roots are real things.

The fundamental theorem of algebra says every polynomial with complex coefficients has at least one (complex) root. Using the fundamental theorem of algebra and the polynomial remainder theorem together shows that every complex polynomial of degree _n_ has exactly _n_ complex roots, and some of them may be equal.

## Root of a polynomial

For first degree polynomials  the root is .

For second degree polynomials  the roots are: .

There are also equations for solving 3rd and 4th degrees but Évariste Galois proved that 5th degree polynomials cannot be solved using  radicals.

Polynomial remainder theorem states that if  is a root of a polynomial  If and only if  is divisible by .

The Fundamental theorem of algebra states that the Complex plane is an algebraically close Field meaning that any polynomial from degree n has exactly n roots including repeating roots.

If a Polynomial , for , a is a root of P and a root of the first t-1 derivatives of P.

If P is a polynomial such that all of his **coefficients** are Integers:

1. If a is an Integer root of P, the constant coefficient is divisible by a.

2. If  is an Rational root of P, the constant coefficient is divisible by a and the leading coefficient is divisible by b.

For example : P(x) = , we can see that the root should be a divisor of 1 meaning it is 1 or -1,  after we check the 2 options we can see that the root is -1.
De Moivre's formula

In mathematics, **de Moivre's formula** or **de Moivre's theorem** is an equation named after Abraham de Moivre. It states that for any real number _x_ and integer _n_,

The formulation of De Moivre's formula for any complex numbers  (with modulus  and angle ) is as follows:

Here,  is Euler's number, and  is often called the polar form of the complex number .

The formula is very important because it connects complex numbers and trigonometry. It can be proved using the trigonometry form of complex numbers by mathematical induction, with the help of some trigonometrical identities. It can also be proved using Euler's formula as well.

By using this formula, any equation of the form , where _w_ is complex, can be solved.

Yellow-bellied glider

The **yellow-bellied glider** (_Petaurus australis_) is an arboreal and nocturnal gliding possum. It lives in the native eucalypt forests right down eastern Australia, from northern Queensland to Victoria.

## Habitat

The yellow-bellied glider lives in forests and woodlands in eastern Australia and is found at a range of altitudes from sea level to 1400 metres.

In North Queensland, the sub-species lives at over 700 m above sea level. There are 13 different populations in three places where this glider lives in North Queensland. One population lives on Mount Windsor Tableland, another on Mount Carbine Tableland, and the third lives in a linear habitat from Atherton to Kirrama on the Atherton Tableland. These three populations together have about 6000 individual gliders. With their habitat in danger, the yellow-bellied glider is classified as uncommon to rare and is named vulnerable to the tropics. This species is more widespread in southern Queensland, NSW and Victoria.

The yellow-bellied glider is gregarious and spends the day in a leaf-lined tree hole, which is usually shared with other members of the same family.  It is also one of the most vocal possum gliders. It has a distinctive growling call that it uses as means of communication. A recording of the distinctive call can be heard at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnzGlC0Pmfo

It eats nectar, honeydew, insects, pollen and a wide spread of tree sap.
