Additional nodes can be added anywhere along the bus.
There are several limitations to the bus network topology.
The length of the bus is limited by cable loss.
A bus network may not work well if the nodes are located at scattered points that do not lie near a common.

Anubias afzelii is a plant in the Araceae family.
It was first described for science in 1857 by Heinrich Wilhelm Schott.
That description was based on material collected in Sierra Leone by Adam Afzelius.
Schott named the species after him.
The genus Anubias was described at the same time.
Only A. afzellii belonged to it.
This is therefore the type species of the genus.
A. afzelii was the first species of this genus known to science.
The plant's leave blades are elongated (long and thin) and leathery.
They can be up to  long and  wide.
The leaf stems are generally shorter than the blade.
The leaves are set on a creeping and rooting rhizome.
It is  thick.
The spathe is  long (sometimes up to 9 cm long).
It has a  long peduncle.
The spadix is  long (sometimes up to 12 cm long).
It is a little bit longer than the spathe.
Therefore, the tip of the spadix sticks a little bit out of the spathe.
The upper part of the spadix is covered with male flowers.
Their 5-6 stamens are fused.
The anthers (also called thecae) are on the sides.
The lower part of the spadix is covered with female flowers.
These are reduced to the ovary and stigma.
The plant grows in wet, shady places.
It flowers from the end of March to July.
It fruits from April to September.
The plant grows above water, but can sometimes be completely under water.
It is most suited for the paludarium.
It can also be used in larger aquariums, where it grows very slowly.
It does not need much light.
It prefers a temperature range of 22-26 °C.
It can be propagated by dividing the rhizome.
Propagation by seed is also easy.

In five-dimensional geometry, a demipenteract or 5-demicube is a semiregular 5-polytope, constructed from a 5-hypercube (penteract) with alternated vertices removed.
It was discovered by Thorold Gosset.
Since it was the only semiregular 5-polytope (made of more than one type of regular facets), he called it a 5-ic semi-regular.
E. L. Elte identified it in 1912 as a semiregular polytope, labeling it as HM5 for a 5-dimensional half measure polytope.
Coxeter named this polytope as 121 from its Coxeter diagram, which has branches of length 2, 1 and 1 with a ringed node on one of the short branches,  and Schläfli symbol  or {3,32,1}.
It exists in the k21 polytope family as 121 with the Gosset polytopes: 221, 321, and 421.

He was born Luis Alberto Hurtado Cruchaga on January 22, 1901, in Viña del Mar, Chile.
He was of Basque origin.
Along with being a Jesuit priest, he was also a lawyer, social worker, and writer.
He founded the Hogar de Cristo Foundation.
In Chile, he was popularly known as Padre Hurtado (which means "Father Hurtado" in Spanish).
He died from cancer on August 18, 1952 in Santiago, Chile.
In 2005, Pope Benedict XVI canonized him.
Alberto's father died when he was four years old.
After this, his mother had to sell, at a loss, their modest property in order to pay the family’s debts.
Because the family was so poor, Alberto and his brother had to go to live with relatives and were often moved from one family member to another.
However, Alberto got a scholarship that allowed him to study at the famous all-boys Jesuit school of St. Ignacio, Santiago.
He studied there from 1909 to 1917.
At the parish and school, Hurtado assisted in the office and was librarian.
During this time, he also volunteered at the Parroquia Nuestra Señora de Andacollo, a Catholic parish and school in a poor neighborhood of Santiago.
Fernando Vives, a teacher at the St. Ignacio school, was one of the most important people in Hurtado's life.
Even during Vives' exile in Spain (1918–1935), they stayed in contact with each other.
Vives was a great influence on Hurtado.
Law school and military service
From 1918 to 1923, Hurtado attended the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.
He studied in its law school and wrote his thesis on labour law.
He had to interrupt his education because he was required to serve in the military.
However, he was able to go back to school afterward, and earned his degree early in August 1923.
Priesthood and studies
In 1927 he was sent to Barcelona, Spain, to study philosophy and theology, but because of the suppression of the Jesuits in Spain in 1931, he went on to Belgium and continued his studies in theology at Louvain.
He was ordained a priest there on 24 August 1933, and in 1935 obtained a doctorate in pedagogy and psychology.
