The yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) is a species of tuna found in pelagic waters of tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide.
Yellowfin is often marketed as ahi, from its name ʻahi although the name ʻahi in Hawaiian also refers to the closely related bigeye tuna.
Although the species name albacares might suggest otherwise, the fish usually known as albacore is a different species of tuna.
The yellowfin tuna is sometimes referred to as albacore by French and Portuguese fishermen.
It is the National fish of the Maldives.
Chowder is the name of a soup usually made with fish or mussels.
It is especially popular in the United States.
There is also many types of chowder: corn chowder, Bermuda fish chowder, clam chowder.

The red wolf (Canis rufus) is a subspecies of wolf.
It is an endangered species of wolf from  Eastern North America.
Red wolves were declared extinct in the wild in 1980 after the few remaining wild wolves were placed in a captive breeding program.
Reintroduced to the wild in 1987 in northeastern North Carolina, red wolves began to recover, but the population is rapidly diminishing as of late 2016.
The red wolf is smaller than a gray wolf and larger than a coyote.
It is slender and long-legged, and it lives in the wild only on the Albemarle Peninsula in North Carolina.
It hunts small mammals, rodents, and white-tailed deer.
The ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) is a small mammal, one of nine species in the genus Leopardus.
It lives in South and Central America, as far up as Mexico.
It has been reported as far north as Texas and in Trinidad, in the Caribbean.
These fast cats eat small mammals, birds, fish, and snakes.
They are very good swimmers.
Once hunted for its beautiful fur, the cat is now protected and listed as 'least concern' by the IUCN Red List.
The cat is nocturnal and likes forests and dense vegetation.
It is very territorial, and will fight to keep its territory.
Like many cats, male ocelots mark their territory by spraying urine.
Their kittens grow slowly, staying with their mother for up to two years.
They have to learn how to catch prey before they can be independent.
Although a "small cat", it is a good deal bigger than the others.
The ocelot ranges from  in length, plus  in tail length, and typically weighs .
Larger ones have been reported.
It is the largest of the generally dainty Leopardus wild cat genus.
An iteration is a step where some action is repeated again and again.
In everyday life, an iteration is simply a repeated action, for example when someone says, "Do I have to reiterate myself?".
In this case, the reiteration is what the person said and might say again.
In computer science, an iteration is one run through a block of code that is repeated multiple times.
In fractal geometry, an iteration is one application of the set of rules of the fractal to create another stage of the fractal.
it is also used in computer programming.

Dennis Brain (born 17 May 1921; died London, 1 September 1957) was a British horn player.
During his short life he became world-famous.
Many people thought of him as the greatest horn player ever.
He made the horn very popular among classical music lovers in Britain.
His recordings include the four horn concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart which he recorded with the Philharmonia Orchestra conducted by Herbert von Karajan.
Dennis Brain was born in London on 17 May 1921.
Several of his family were horn players, including his father Aubrey, his grandfather Alfred Edwin Brain Sr and his uncle Alfred Edwin Brain Jr.   His mother Marion was a singer who had sung at Covent Garden.
He had a brother Leonard who was 6 years older and who was to become an excellent oboe player.
Dennis started to learn the piano.
He also played bugle in the school cadet band at Richmond Hill Preparatory School.
From there he was sent to St Paul’s School in Kensington where he sang in the choir and played piano solos at concerts.
In 1936 he left school and got a scholarship to the  Royal Academy of Music where he learned the horn with his father as well as the piano and, from 1938, the organ.
He learned a lot from his organ teacher G.D.Cunningham who had taught his uncle Alfred the piano some 40 years before.
Dennis’s first professional concert was at the Queen’s Hall in 1938 when he played Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto no 1 together with his father (there are important solo parts for two horns in this music).
Soon he was playing in other concerts and making gramophone recordings.
The outbreak of World War II in 1939 interrupted his last year of studies.
All theatre halls and concert-halls were closed.
He managed to get a job as principal horn with the RAF Central Band which were in Uxbridge in north-west London.
Dennis was always a very friendly person who got on well with everybody.
The older players in the band might not have liked a 17-year-old boy to have a principal’s job, but everybody realized he had exceptional skills.
He played in concerts whenever possible.
There were lunch-hour concerts in the National Gallery during the war, and he often played in these.
He started to become famous.
He met Benjamin Britten and he persuaded him to compose his Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings.
He performed it in 1943 with the tenor  Peter Pears and they recorded it for Decca in 1944.
He toured the USA with the RAF Orchestra.
Several conductors heard him and wanted Brain to join their orchestra.
By 1945, Brain was the most famous horn player in England.
He was still only 24.
His father hurt himself in a fall and could not play much.
Dennis took over some of his work.
After the war two new orchestras were formed in London: the Philharmonia and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
Brain was made  principal horn player in both.
Later, he left the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra because he did not have time.
Brain played a lot of chamber music, forming a wind quintet with his brother in 1946.
This group got bigger and toured to  Germany, Italy and Austria.
Brain also started a trio with the pianist Wilfrid Parry and violinist Jean Pougnet.
The trio toured Scotland twice and there were plans to tour Australia in the winter of 1957.
In November 1953 Brain recorded the Mozart Horn Concertos Nos.
1–4 for EMI with the Philharmonia Orchestra with Karajan conducting.
He kept up his organ playing (his teacher had hoped he would become an organist) and in July 1954, again conducted by Karajan, Brain performed the organ part in a recording of the Easter hymn from Pietro Mascagni's Cavalleria rusticana.
In 1955 Brain became known to millions of people when he presented a radio program called The Early Horn.
Brain had a good sense of humour.
Among the many concerts he played in was a music festival in 1956 which celebrated the life of Gerard Hoffnung, the artist who had drawn many cartoons about music.
Dennis played a Leopold Mozart horn concerto by blowing through rubber hose pipes.
He cut the hose to the length he needed with garden shears so that it was perfectly in tune.
Brain was known for being careless.
The horn he played for many years had lots of dents in it because he kept knocking it or dropping it.
Benjamin Britten gave him a second copy of music for a new work he had written.
Inside he wrote: "For Dennis - in case he loses the other one".
His Alexander horn was badly damaged in his fatal crash.
Normally it would have been thrown away, but it was saved and was restored by Paxmans of London and can be seen in the Royal Academy of Music's free museum.
Brain often asked composers to write new works for him to perform.
Many composers wrote for him without even being asked.
Among them were Benjamin Britten Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings, Canticle III, Malcolm Arnold Horn Concerto No.
2, Paul Hindemith Concerto for Horn and Orchestra, York Bowen Concerto for Horn, Strings and Timpani, Peter Racine Fricker Horn Sonata (Dennis was at school with Peter), Gordon Jacob Concerto for Horn and String Orchestra, Mátyás Seiber Notturno for Horn and Strings, Humphrey Searle Aubade for Horn and Strings, Ernest Tomlinson Rhapsody and Rondo for Horn and Orchestra, Romance and Rondo for Horn and Orchestra, Lennox Berkeley  Trio for Horn, Violin and Piano and Elisabeth Lutyens.
Brain also made the two horn concertos by Richard Strauss very popular.
He was the second to perform the Horn Concerto No.
2 in public in 1948.
His hobby: motoring
Apart from horns Dennis had one big passion: he loved cars.
At orchestral rehearsals he often had a car magazine on the music stand instead of his music (he knew the music from memory anyway).
His first car was an open Morris 8 with two seats.
He shared it during the war with his brother to motor from Uxbridge into London.
Later he had several cars.
Whenever a car did not work he bought another instead of repairing it.
He loved to drive and would often drive all the way home after a concert even if it was 100s of miles.
Elisabeth Schwarzkopf let him drive her huge Hudson saloon car over the Gotthard Pass in Switzerland when it was officially closed because of heavy snow.
On another occasion Herbert von Karajan let him drive his Mercedes 300SL.
Once he bought a very rare 1939 12-cylinder Lagonda, but he soon crashed it and it could not be repaired.
Other cars included a Citroen and a green TR2 sports car.
On 31 August 1957 Dennis was at the Edinburgh Festival playing a concert in the Usher Hall.
The Philharmonia Orchestra were playing Tchaikovsky Symphony No.
6, Pathétique with the conductor Eugene Ormandy.
Unusually that day he seemed tired and Ormandy told him he should get more rest.
But Dennis had a recording session the next morning in London, so after the concert he got into his car (his TR2), put his horn on the back seat and set off on the 380-mile journey back home.
It was about 6.00am the next morning when he was near London.
It was raining heavily and he was on the A1 at the Barnet by-pass.
According to witnesses he was travelling very fast when he came to a bend, the car left the road, turned over and crashed into a tree.
The car was a complete wreck.
Dennis was dead.
He was 36 years old.
He was buried at Hampstead Cemetery in London.
His fame and playing
Whenever Dennis played his horn is sounded easy and effortless.
It had an extraordinary lyrical beauty and was always incredibly musical.
He was a very sensitive player who listened very carefully to the other players and blended in with them.
At first he played a French instrument, a Raoux piston-valve horn, similar to that used by his father.
This type of instrument has a lovely smooth tone, but was less powerful than the German-made instruments which had become popular since the 1920s.
In 1951 he changed to single B instrument made by Alexander, which was not quite as wide as the usual German instruments, still keeping the lighter sound of French horns.
Dennis had made the horn very popular as an instrument, not just through his concerts and recordings but also through the radio.
He played difficult music that other horn players could not play.
His Mozart recordings inspired Flanders and Swann's Ill Wind and his classical playing.
His sudden death added to the musical legend.

Classical horn players
Aubrey Brain (born London 12 July 1893; died London 21 September 1955) was a British French horn player.
There were a lot of French horn players in his family.
His father, Alfred Edwin Brain senior, played in Henry Wood’s orchestra at the very first prom in 1895.
Later he played for the London Symphony Orchestra.
His brother, also called Alfred Edwin Brain, was principal horn player in Henry Wood’s Queen’s Hall Orchetra, but then he emigrated to the USA where he eventually played for the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
His son Dennis Brain was to become the most famous French horn player of all.
Aubrey  Brain was born in London in 1893.
He started to learn the horn from his father.
In 1911 he won a scholarship to the Royal College of Music.
He soon became one of Britain’s best horn players.
The other great players of the French horn were his father, his elder brother and Adolf Borsdorf.
He became principal horn player of the Beecham Opera Company.
There he met Marion Beeley, a mezzo-soprano.
They married in the summer of 1914 just before the World War I.  When war broke out he joined the Welsh Guards and played horn in the band.
After the war it was difficult for him at first to find a really good job as horn player .
The best horn jobs were already taken by his brother Alfred.
Aubrey and Marion had two sons: Leonard (born 1915) and Dennis (born 1921).
However, in 1922 Alfred emigrated to the United States.
Aubrey soon became first horn of the Royal Philharmonic Society (his father played second horn), and first horn of the Queen’s Hall Orchestra.
He was also first horn in the New Symphony and soon he joined the orchestra of Covent Garden as principal horn.
In 1923 he joined the London Symphony Orchestra.
In 1923 Borsdorf retired as professor of horn at the Royal Academy of Music, and Aubrey took his place.
One of his first pupils was his younger brother Arthur.
Although very talented Arthur decided not to take up horn playing professionally and joined the police.
Later, Aubrey’s son Dennis was one of his students.
Aubrey had a very successful career, not only as principal horn player in several orchestras, but also as a soloist.
He played Mozart’s Second Horn Concerto in 1923 at The Proms.
His playing can be heard on several of the very early recordings when the LSO recorded for HMV.
Several works were written for him, including the Concerto for French horn, Violin and orchestra by Dame Ethel Smythe.
He played it very well, including the chords in the last movement (it is possible to play chords on the horn by humming one note and playing another note of the harmonic series).
He played it at the Proms.
The conductor Bruno Walter invited him to play it in Berlin.
This made Aubrey the first British horn player to play a solo concerto abroad.
When the BBC Symphony Orchestra was started in 1930 Aubrey was their principal horn player.
He was still principal horn player with the other big London orchestras (this would be impossible nowadays), but gradually his gave up these positions as the BBC Symphony Orchestra got more and more work and needed their players to be full time.
Aubrey played a French-type horn (a “Raoux horn”) which had a narrow-bore (the tube was very narrow).
The German-type horn had a wider bode and made a slightly different sound.
Playing on a Raoux horn there was more risk of a note cracking (not speaking properly).
The German-type horn was becoming very popular in England, but Aubrey insisted that all the horn players in the BBC Symphony Orchestra continued to play on  Raoux horns.
Aubrey was a very skilled musician in chamber music and made a recording with the violinist Adolf Busch and the pianist Rudolf Serkin of the Brahms Horn Trio.
It sold many copies and continued to sell for many years until the 78rpm records were replaced by long-playing records.
Later life and retirement
During the war Aubrey started to have health problems.
He had a bad fall on Christmas Day 1940.
Towards the end of the war he started to get blurred vision, his speech became slurred and he had strange feelings in his fingers and toes.
He retired in 1945 after the first rehearsal for the Prom season.
He still performed occasionally, usually together with his son Dennis.
He died on 20 September 1955, three days after a bad fall which gave him a heart attack.
Aubrey Brain may be remembered less today because of the exceptional fame of his son Dennis.
However, he was a very great horn player who helped to improve the standard of horn playing in Britain, both by his teaching and by the example of his performances.
The recordings on which he can be heard were all made before the days of the LP.
His older son Leonard became a well-known oboist.

Tweed New Haven Regional Airport , formerly known as Tweed-New Haven Airport, is a public airport  southeast of the central business district of New Haven, Connecticut, United States.
Tweed New Haven Regional Airport is currently owned by the City of New Haven.
The airport property is in New Haven and the town of East Haven.
Bangor International Airport  is a public use passenger airport.
It is 3 miles (5 km) west of the city of Bangor, Maine, United States.
It is owned and operated by the City of Bangor.
It used to be a military base called Dow Air Force Base.
The airport has a single runway that is 11,439 ft (3486 m) long and 200 ft (60 m) wide.
The airport is used a lot because it's near the Great Circle Route, a major air route between Europe and the East Coast of the United States.
The 'international' in the airport's name doesn't refer to it being close to Canada (to which it has no regular flights), but its role in travel across the Atlantic Ocean.

The vertebrate brain is the main part of the central nervous system.
In vertebrates (and most other animals) the brain is at the front, in the head.
It is protected by the skull and close to the main senses of vision, hearing, balance, taste, and smell.
As an animal moves forward, its senses collect data about the surroundings, and that data goes directly to the brain.
Brains are extremely complex.
The brain controls the other organs of the body, either by activating muscles or by causing secretion of chemicals such as hormones and neurotransmitters.
Muscular action allows rapid and coordinated responses to changes in the environment; hormones and the autonomic nervous system make slower changes in the body.
It is also a part of human and animal body.
The brain of  an adult human weights about  13001400 grams
In vertebrates, the spinal cord by itself can cause reflex responses as well as simple movement such as swimming or walking.
However, sophisticated control of behaviour requires a centralized brain.
The structure of all vertebrate brains is basically the same.
At the same time, during the course of evolution, the vertebrate brain has undergone changes, and become more effective.
In so-called 'lower' animals, most or all of the brain structure is inherited, and therefore their behaviour is mostly instinctive.
In mammals, and especially in man, the brain is developed further during life by learning.
This has the benefit of helping them fit better into their environment.
The capacity to learn is seen best in the cerebral cortex.
Three principles
The brain and nervous system is essentially a system which makes connections.
It has input from sense organs and output to muscles.
It is connected in several ways with the endocrine system, which makes hormones, and the digestive system and sex system.
Hormones work slowly, so those changes are gradual.
The brain is a kind of department store.
It has, all inter-connected, departments which do different things.
They all help each other gather senses.
Much of what the body does is not conscious.
A person breathes, heart beats, intestines digest, hair grows, thoughts pop into their mind... Some of this can be noticed by a person, and some (like breathing) can be influenced to some extent.
But, basically, much of the body runs on automatic, adjusted by the autonomic nervous system.
The brain, too, does much of its work without a person noticing it.
The unconscious mind refers to the brain activities which are seldom noticed.
Several brain areas have kept their identities across the whole range of vertebrates, from hagfishes to humans.
Here is a list of some of the most important areas, with a brief description of their functions as currently understood.
These functions may still be disputed to some degree.
Starting from the back (or, in humans, the underneath part) the regions are:
The medulla (and the spinal cord) have many small nuclei, which deal with various autonomic functions.
These include the heart beat and blood pressure, breathing, and vomiting.ch 44, 45
The pons is a relay station, carrying messages between the cerebrum and the medulla and cerebellum.
The hypothalamus is a small region at the base of the forebrain.
It is the central control station for sleep/wake cycles, control of eating and drinking, control of hormone release, and many other functions.
It sits immediately above the pituitary gland, and secretes hormones into the gland.
These hormones inhibit or stimulate the pituitary gland.
The gland, in turn, makes hormones which affect the rest of the body.
The thalamus sits above the hypothalamus, and below the cerebral cortex.
It is a collection of nuclei with various functions.
It acts as a relay station, gathering sense information of all kinds (except olfactory) and passes it on to the cerebral cortex.
Also, it has a role in consciousness and sleep.
There are action systems for several types of behaviour, including eating, drinking, defecation, and copulation.
The cerebellum adjusts the output of other brain systems to make them more precise.
Removal of the cerebellum does not prevent an animal from doing anything in particular, but it makes actions hesitant and clumsy.
This precision is not built-in, but learned by trial and error.
Learning how to ride a bicycle is an example of a type of neural plasticity that may take place largely within the cerebellum.ch 42
The tectum, often called 'optic tectum', directs actions to points in space.
Its best studied function is to direct eye movements.
It also directs reaching movements.
It gets strong visual inputs, and inputs from other senses which are useful in directing actions.
Sound in owls, input from the thermosensitive pit organs in snakes, scent in dogs, are examples.
In some fish, such as lampreys, it is the largest part of the brain.
The hippocampus is, strictly speaking, only in mammals, but it has counterparts in all vertebrates.
It is involved in spatial memory and navigation in fishes, birds, reptiles, and mammals.
The basal ganglia are a group of structures in the forebrain, which are strongly connected to the cerebral cortex and the thalamus.
The main function of the basal ganglia seems to be selecting actions.
They send inhibitory signals to all parts of the brain that can generate actions.
In the right circumstances they release the inhibition, so that the action-generating systems can execute their actions.
Rewards and punishments exert most important neural effects on the basal ganglia.
The cerebral cortex is a layer of grey cells that is on the surface of the forebrain.
It is involved in multiple functions, including olfaction and spatial memory.
In mammals, where it dominates the brain, it controls functions from many subcortical areas.
The olfactory bulb is a special structure that processes olfactory sensory signals (smells), and sends its output to the olfactory part of the cerebral cortex.
It is a major brain component in many vertebrates, but much reduced in primates.
Dogs are the classic example of a mammal whose scent perception is in many ways the basis of their sensory life.
The relationship between brain size, body size and other variables has been studied in a wide range of vertebrate species.
Brain size increases with body size but not proportionally.
Averaging across all mammals, it follows a power law, with an exponent of about 0.75.
This formula applies to the average brain of mammals but each family departs from it, reflecting their sophistication of behavior.
For example, primates have brains 5 to 10 times as large as the formula predicts.
Predators tend to have larger brains.
When the mammalian brain increases in size, not all parts increase at the same rate.
The larger the brain of a species, the greater the fraction taken up by the neocortex.
Cassiterite is a mineral.
It contains tin dioxide.
It is black because of impurities.
It is the main ore of tin.
Its Mohs hardness is 6-7.
The Group 14 elements, also known as the carbon group and the Group IV elements, is a group of elements on the periodic table.
Each element has 4 valence electrons.
Only carbon makes anions.
Silicon and germanium are semimetals.
Tin and lead are poor metals.
Ununquadium, a radioactive element, is not stable enough to see its properties.
All of them can form +4 oxidation state compounds.
Tin and lead can form +2 compounds, too.
Burst kinetics is a form of enzyme kinetics.
Upon adding enzyme to substrate, a large initial velocity is exhibited that levels off once all enzymes have been saturated.
At this point enzyme velocity linearly increases.
The initial high velocity is called the burst phase.
U.S. Route 2 is a highway that has two parts.
The western part begins in Everett, Washington and ends in St. Ignace, Michigan.
The eastern part begins in Rouses Point, New York and ends in Houlton, Maine.
For much of its route, Route 2 runs near the U.S.-Canadian border.
Part of it follows the Theodore Roosevelt Highway.
It goes through Glacier National Park.
U.S. Route 3 is a highway that travels from Cambridge, Massachusetts to the Canadian border.
Tunak Tunak Tun is an Indian pop song released in 1998.
It has become an internet meme.
It was made because most of Daler Mehndi's other videos have women dancing.
Some people said that was the only reason his music was popular.
This one has just him but became a success anyway.
It has used bluescreen technology.

Mary: A Fiction is a novel written by Mary Wollstonecraft, a British feminist.
It is her first and only complete novel.
Wollstonecraft wrote it when she was a governess in Ireland.
The novel was published in 1788 shortly after she decided to embark on a writing career, an unpopular profession for women in 18th-century Britain.
Wollstonecraft was inspired by Jean-Jacques Rousseau's idea that "geniuses are self-taught", so Wollstonecraft made Mary, the main character, a self-taught heroine.
Wollstonecraft describes Mary as independent and capable of defining femininity and marriage for herself.
It is Mary's "strong, original opinions" and her resistance to "conventional wisdom" that makes her a genius.
Mary also critiques marriage, 18th-century sensibility and its damaging effects on women.
Dwight David Howard (born December 8, 1985 in Atlanta, Georgia) is a professional basketball player.
He plays for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA).
His position is center.
The Magic chose Howard with the first pick overall in the 2004 NBA Draft.
Howard did not play college basketball.
He entered the draft right out of high school.
Howard is one of the greatest rebounders and defensive players in the history of basketball.
He is the NBA's active leader in offensive rebounds, total rebounds and blocked shots.
Howard has been chosen as the NBA's Defensive Player of the Year three times, and won the NBA Slam Dunk Contest in 2008.
Howard was also named to the All-NBA First Team three times, was an All-Star five times, and won a gold medal in the 2008 Summer Olympics.
He showed frustration at the end of 2011-12 NBA season and demanded a trade to either the New Jersey Nets, Los Angeles Lakers or Dallas Mavericks.
On August 10, 2012, he was traded from the Magic to the Los Angeles Lakers in a trade that also involved the Philadelphia 76ers and Denver Nuggets.
Diagnostic ultrasonography is the use of ultrasound to visualize hidden body structures.
This medical imaging technique is used to display muscles, tendons, and other internal organs.
It makes it easier to assess damage done to these structures.
Obstetric sonography is the name for a number of tests done during the pregnancy of a woman.
Diagnostic sonography has a wide field of use, including emergency medicine, where it is regularly performed on patients which are in a state of  shock or trauma.
This test is known as Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma.
It can detect any fluid in the body cavities.
Doctors can then decide whether life-saving surgery must be performed.

The medulla oblongata (or medulla) is the lower half of the brainstem.
It is just on top of the spinal cord.
It connects the higher parts of the brain to the spinal cord (see the picture at the right of this page).
The cardiac, respiratory, and vasomotor control centers are in the medulla.
This means that the medulla controls heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, and the size of the body's blood vessels.
If the medulla did not work, the person would die.
The medulla does many important things.
It relays nerve signals between the brain and spinal cord.
Signals from the brain tell the rest of the body what to do.
Signals from the spinal cord tell the brain what is going on in the body.
Without the medulla, none of these signals would get through.
The breathing control center
The medulla controls breathing.
Groups of neurons in the medulla tell the body when to breathe in, when to breathe faster, and when to breathe slower.
The medulla measures how much carbon dioxide is in a person's blood.
The body has to get rid of extra carbon dioxide, because it is poisonous.
The only way the body can get rid of carbon dioxide is by breathing it out.
If there is too much carbon dioxide in the blood, the medulla sends signals to the breathing muscles and tells them to work harder.
This makes the person breathe faster, so they can breathe out the extra carbon dioxide.
The cardiac control center
The medulla helps control the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system.
The main part of the nerves that control these two systems are in the medulla.
These nerves get signals from other parts of the brain and the body.
These signals help tell the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems what to do.
Together, these two systems control many important things, like how fast the heart beats and how hard it squeezes.
In the cardiac center, there are special nerves that will make the heart beat harder and faster, called excitatory nerves.
There are also inhibitory nerves, which will make the heart beat slower and not as hard.
If a person's blood pressure gets too low, the cardiac center will send a message to the excitatory nerves, telling them to make the heart beat faster and harder.
This raises the blood pressure.
If the blood pressure gets too high, the cardiac center sends a message to the inhibitory nerves, which slow the heart down and make it not beat so hard.
In a healthy person, the cardiac center balances out the signals it sends to these sets of nerves, to keep the blood pressure normal.
The vasomotor control center
The vasomotor center controls the size of the body's blood vessels.
When a person is stressed or in danger, the vasomotor center makes the blood vessels get smaller.
This is part of the body's "fight or flight" reaction.
It causes more blood to go to the body's most important organs, like the brain, heart, and lungs.
This can help a person survive if they are in danger.
It also makes the blood pressure go up.
At other times, the vasomotor center makes the blood vessels get wider.
This makes the blood pressure go down, and makes it easier for blood to get to some parts of the body.

A foreign reserve is the currency from another nation that is held by a nation's treasury.
They are another set of assets in a country.
Formerly, only gold and silver were used as reserves, but now the currency of other countries is used.
There is a benefit to having a foreign reserve.
When a nation has one, it can change the exchange rate to make it best for the country.
But sometimes the exchange rate drops and the foreign reserve becomes worthless.

The cerebral cortex is a most important part of the brain.
In humans, it is by far the largest part of the brain.
Though this cannot be seen directly, different parts of the cortex have different functions (see diagram).
It plays a key role in memory, attention, perceptual awareness, thought, language, and consciousness.
It is a sheet of neural tissue that is outermost to the cerebrum of the mammalian brain.
It has up to six layers of nerve cells.
The human cerebral cortex is 2–4 mm (0.08–0.16 inches) thick.
In preserved brains, it is grey, so it is often called 'grey matter'.
In contrast to gray matter that is formed from neurons and their unmyelinated fibers, the white matter below them is formed predominantly by myelinated axons interconnecting neurons in different regions of the cerebral cortex with each other and neurons in other parts of the central nervous system.
The phylogenetically most recent part of the cerebral cortex, the neocortex, has six horizontal layers; the more ancient part of the cerebral cortex, the hippocampus, has at most three cellular layers.
Neurons in various layers connect vertically to form small microcircuits, called 'columns'.
The neocortex is the newest part of the cerebral cortex to evolve.
The six-layer neocortex is a distinguishing feature of mammals; it has been found in the brains of all mammals, but not in any other animals.
In humans, 90% of the cerebral cortex is neocortex.
Allocortex
Allocortex: fewer than six layers, more ancient phylogenetically than the mammals, evolved to handle olfaction and the memory of smells.
Archicortex (includes functions related to emotions and memory)
Olfactory cortex
Paleocortex (3 three to five layers)
