Annealing is the name for a number of processes that change the properties of a piece of work using heat.
In general the piece is heated to a certain temperature, and modelled while it cools off.
Specifically, annealing can refer to:
Annealing (metallurgy) when metals are treated
Annealing (glass) when a piece of glass is heated to remove stress
Nucleic acid thermodynamics when DNA-like structures are changed
Simulated annealing is a method of combinatorial optimization to find the optimum of a function
Quantum annealing is another method of combinatorial optimization
A Naat Khawan or Sanaa Khawan is a person who recites the Naat.
The One's complement is an operation that can be done to binary numbers.
It is obtained by swapping all the bits in the number, that is, replacing 1 with 0, or 0 with 1.
In many systems, this is used to represent the inverse of a number.
One of the big problems that occur when using One's complement is that the number zero has two representations, either all 0's or all 1's.
Using 4 digits both 0000 and 1111 represent zero.
This problem can be solved by using Two's complement.

Earthenware is pottery which is porous (meaning water gets through tiny holes slowly).
It was fired at a temperature which did not melt it into a glass-like vitreous form.
So it is porous.
Many types of pottery have been made from it.
Until the 18th century it was the commonest type of pottery outside China.
Earthenware is a type of clay that when fired to make pottery is soft and can be scratched with a knife.
It is opaque  and has an grainy edge when broken.
It is generally easier to shape on the potter's wheel than porcelain.
Due to its porosity earthenware must be glazed in order to be watertight.
Terracotta is earthenware.
Earthenware articles may be thick and heavy or as thin as bone china and porcelain.
They are not translucent and are more easily chipped.
They are less strong than stoneware.

Silence means no sound that can be heard.
It can also mean no communication.
Brazil was one of the Allies of World War II.
It was also the only Ally from South America to provide troops.
The country made significant contributions to the war effort.
They sent an expeditionary force to fight alongside the allies in the  Italian Campaign.
The Brazilian Navy and Air Force helped the Allies in the Atlantic from 1942 until the end of the war in 1945.
At the beginning of World War II Brazil was neutral.
They traded with both the Allied and Axis Forces.
But after 1939 the war made trade with Europe difficult.
They turned to the United States as a trading partner.
The Americans pressured Brazil to join the Allies.
This led to the Joint Brazil-U.S Defense Commission, which was designed to counter Axis influence in South America.
At the beginning of 1942 Brazil permitted the US to set up air bases on its soil.
This came as an agreement that the US would help establishing a national steel industry in Brazil, the Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional.
This would initially help supply the Allies industrial demand for steel, and after the war, contribute to the country’s industrialization and development.
As a result of Brazil´s decision, from the end of January to July 1942, German navy U-boats sank 13 Brazilian merchant ships, causing severe damage to Brazilian shipping.
In total, 21 German and two Italian submarines caused the sinking of 36 Brazilian merchant ships causing 1,691 drownings and 1,079 other casualties.
The sinkings were the main reason that led the Brazilian government to declare war against the Axis.
Finally, Vargas declared war on both Germany and Italy on August 22 1942.
It is known that 9 U-Boats were sunk off the Brazilian Coast over the course of the war.
The Smoking Cobras
The Brazilian Expeditionary Force or BEF () was a force of about 25,344 men.
They were organized as a division of the US Fifth Army.
They were delayed in getting started by difficulties in getting organized.
Some in Brazil thought the government was not that anxious to send troops into battle.
A popular saying at the time was that it was more likely for "snakes to smoke" () than to get the BEF going.
It is the same as the saying "When pigs fly", meaning it will probably never happen.
When the BEF did enter the war, they proudly wore their arm patch showing a cobra with a pipe in its mouth.
They called themselves the "Smoking Cobras".
They were organized as a standard American division.
They wore American uniforms with Brazilian rank and unit markings.
The BEF was divided into three battalions of 5,000 men each.
They were the 1st, 6th and 11th regimental combat teams.
Their record in Italy was impressive.
At the Battle of Collecchio the BEF defeated the German 148th Division and the Italian Monte Rosa, San Marco and Italia divisions.
They captured 14,700 troops and 800 officers (including 2 Generals).
During the eight months of battle in Italy, the BEF captured a total of 20,573 Axis soldiers.
Only 450 BEF troops and 13 officers died while fighting on the front.
Navy and Air Force
The Brazilian Navy and Air Force played a large role in the Battle of the Atlantic.
They started in mid-1942 and operated until the end of the war in 1945.
They performed anti-submarine and patrol operations in the South Atlantic.
They had American ships through the Lend-Lease program.
They acquired several submarine-chasers, 8 destroyer escorts and 3 Fleet destroyers.
The larger destroyers were built in Rio de Janeiro to US designs.
Their Air Force received a number of modern plane types.
These included Curtiss P-36 Hawks, Curtiss P-40 Warhawks and North American B-25 Mitchells.
For patrol aircraft they received Lockheed Hudsons, Lockheed Venturas and long range Consolidated PBY Catalina Flying boats.
The effect was almost immediate.
Between July and December 1943 alone, the Brazilian Air Force and Navy destroyed six German submarines.
Of the 7,000 Brazilian sailors who fought, about 500 were killed in action.
During the war the Navy protected 3,164 merchant ships.
Only three were sunk while under their protection.
Air Force pilots flew a total of 2,550 sorties.
They flew only 5% of the missions in theatre.
But they destroyed 85% of the ammunition dumps, 36% of the fuel depots and 28% of the bridges while they were active.

The Yamato was a Japanese super battleship that served in the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) during World War II.
Along with its sister ship, the Musashi, they were the largest battleships ever built.
Super battleship
Yamato was built at Kure, Japan.
She entered service on 16 December 1941.
It was one of five planned super battleships although only two were built: Yamato and Musashi.
The allies had no clue Japan had built these monsters until they were first spotted.
Yamato was huge and displaced 62, 315 tons.
Yamato had nine 18-inch guns which were the largest in the world at the time.
She was  long.
Yamato's armor was  thick.
Her guns were her most feared weapons.
They fired shells that weighed 3,200 pounds each (the size of a compact car!).
They had a range of .
Yamato was designed to fight and destroy US battleships.
But it never faced one in battle.
In the 1920s and 1930s the battleship was the ultimate power in naval warfare.
But the Japanese, by their attack on Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941 proved aircraft carriers were now the most powerful weapon.
This meant battleships were already out of date.
When the war started, Yamato was the flagship of the Combined Fleet commander Isoroku Yamamoto.
It spent much of 1942 defending Japanese shipping out of Truk.
Torpedoed by a US submarine in 1943 it was under repair until 1944.
Because attack from the air was now the main threat, Yamato was fitted with additional anti-aircraft guns.
In June 1944 Yamato took part in the Battle of the Philippine Sea.
In October Yamato was in the Battle of Leyte Gulf.
During the battle she fired her guns at US escort carriers thinking they were full sized carriers.
She was attacked by several US destroyers and received some damage.
Returning to Japan in November she was again fitted with more anti-aircraft guns.
By then Japan no longer had the resources to keep Yamato operating.
In 1945, Yamato left for Okinawa as part of the suicidal Operation Ten-Go.
It was an effort to attack US ships supporting the Battle of Okinawa.
But, off the coast of Kagoshima, it was sunk by U.S. aircraft on 7 April.
After the war, the Yamato became a fascinating subject in Japan and elsewhere.
In 1985 her wreckage was located under  of water.
It lies on the seabed broken into two sections.
The name Yamato lives on in the anime series Space Battleship Yamato.

The relational model for database management is a database model based on first-order predicate logic.
Edgar F. Codd proposed it in 1969.
In the relational model of a database, all data is represented in terms of tuples, grouped into relations.
A database organized in terms of the relational model is called relational database.
The purpose of the relational model is to provide a declarative method for specifying data and queries: users directly state what information the database contains and what information they want from it.
The structure in which the data is stored, and the task of responding to users' requests and retrieving the data is left to the database system, and is not visible to the user.
Most relational databases use the SQL data definition and query language; these systems implement what can be regarded as an engineering approximation to the relational model.
A table in an SQL database schema corresponds to a predicate variable; the contents of a table to a relation; key constraints, other constraints, and SQL queries correspond to predicates.
Today, many database systems are different from the original model.
Codd fiercely argued against deviations that compromise the original principles.
John Thompson Dorrance (1873 – 1930) was an American chemist.
While working at the Campbell Soup Company he discovered a method to create condensed soup.
Dorrance served as president of the Campbell Soup Company from 1914 to 1930.
Dorrance was born in Bristol, Pennsylvania November 11, 1873.
His parents were John and Eleanor (Thompson) Dorrance.
He earned a Bachelor of Science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
He received a PhD degree from the University of Göttingen in Germany in 1897.
Dorrance then returned to the United States to work for his uncle at the Joseph Cambell Preserve Company.
His uncle started him at $7.50 per week.
Dr. Dorrance also had to provide his own equipment and supplies for his laboratory.
While studdying in Europe, Dorrance became used to having soup with his meals.
He wanted to perfect a method of canning soup and adding it their product line.
In 1897 he invented condensed soup.
By removing the water it reduced the weight of the can.
A lighter can cost less to transport to stores.
The company was able to sell their condensed soup for 10 cents a can.
The product was a success for the company.
His uncle raised his pay to $9.00 a week.
Dorrance also designed the now classic red and white label for Campbells Soup.
Rise to prominence
In 1900 Dorrance became vice president of the Joseph Cambell Preserve Company.
At the Exposition Universelle in Paris that year, Campbell's soups won a gold medal.
The medal is still shown on the soup cans today.
Dorrance found that workers had time on their hands watching the soup cook in the factory.
To occupy their time Dorrance created a new product: canned pork and beans.
In 1914 Dorrance became president of the company, now called the Campbell Soup Company.
He died of a heart disease on September 22, 1930 in Camden, New Jersey.

Steatoda is a spider genus.
It includes more than 120 recognized species around the world.
They are often dark spiders.
The spiders are often mistaken for widow spiders.
They are often called false black widows.
These spiders are less harmful to humans.
They are shaped similar to widow spiders.
Scarus ghobban is a member of the Scaridae family.
Scarus ghobban is also known as the blue-barred parrotfish.
Ancient writers described them as 'parrot fish'.
This species is blue-green to green in color.
It often grows to about .
It may have a central stripe on the dorsal and anal fins that is pink in color.
The underside of the body may be pinkish or yellowish.
There may be blue markings around the area of the pectoral fin.
Scarus ghobban is found in waters around Africa, the Mediterranean and Red Seas.
They are also found in the Galápagos Islands and the Eastern Pacific Ocean.
Scarus Ghobban occurs in places with sandy bottoms.
It also lives near reefs.
Males usually live at depths of about , females live in deeper waters.
The House of Vorontsov, also Woronzow, Woroncow (Russian: Воронцо́в) is the name of a celebrated Russian family which were later given the rank of Count of the Holy Roman Empire in 1744 and became "Serene Princes of the Russian Empire" in 1852.
During the reign of Empress Elizabeth of Russia the family reached the height of their influence and wealth and Elizaveta Vorontsova was later a mistress of Emperor Peter III.
The family also had a large palace in St Petersburg built to reflect their wealth and influence.
After a process of ecological succession the vegetation in an area reaches a steady state.
Its stability is not guaranteed: invasive species and climate change can cause changes.
However, relatively, the system is stable.
This equilibrium was thought to occur because the climax community is composed of species best adapted to average conditions in that area.
The term is sometimes also applied in soil development.
The idea of a single climatic climax, which is defined in relation to regional climate, originated with Frederic Clements in the early 1900s.
The first analysis of succession as leading to something like a climax was written by Henry Cowles in 1899, but it was Clements who used the term "climax" to describe the idealized endpoint of succession.
Uranium mining takes uranium ore from the ground for processing.
Kazakhstan, Canada, and Australia are the top three producers and together account for 64% of world uranium production.
Uranium from mining is mostly used as fuel for nuclear power plants.
Health and environmental studies show that radiation exposure poses a risk for uranium miners.
In 1990, Congress passed legislation to help those affected by mining.
As of July 2014, the price of uranium concentrate remained near a five-year low, the uranium price having fallen more than 50% from the peak price in January 2011, and reflecting loss of demand following the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster.
Some plans for new mines and mine expansion have been deferred.
The worldwide production of uranium in 2012 amounted to 58,000 tonnes.
Other important uranium producing countries are Niger, Namibia, Russia, Uzbekistan, the United States, China, and Malawi.
Uranium ores are normally processed by grinding the ore materials to a uniform particle size and then treating the ore to extract the uranium by chemical leaching.
The milling process commonly yields dry powder consisting of natural uranium, "yellowcake," which is sold on the uranium market as U3O8.
In 1950, the US Public Health service began a comprehensive study of uranium miners, leading to the first publication of a statistical correlation between cancer and uranium mining, released in 1962.
The federal government eventually regulated the standard amount of radon in mines, setting the level at 0.3 WL on January 1, 1969.
Out of 50 present and former uranium milling sites in 12 states, 24 have been abandoned, and are the responsibility of the US Department of Energy.
Accidental releases from uranium mills include the 1979 Church Rock uranium mill spill in New Mexico, called the largest accident of nuclear-related waste in US history, and the 1986 Sequoyah Corporation Fuels Release in Oklahoma.
As of July 2014, the price of uranium concentrate remained near a five-year low, the uranium price having fallen more than 50% from the peak price in January 2011, and reflecting loss of Japanese demand following the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster.
Because of continued low prices, in February 2014 mining company Cameco put back plans to expand production from existing Canadian mines, although it continued work to open a new mine at Cigar Lake.
Also in February 2014, Paladin energy suspended operations at its mine in Malawi, saying that the high-cost operation was losing money at current prices.

In Mortal Hands: A Cautionary History of the Nuclear Age is a 2009 book by Stephanie Cooke.
The book says that nuclear energy failed to develop in the way its planners hoped, and explores the military and civilian sides of nuclear energy.
In the book, Cooke says that we are not close to solving the nuclear waste problem, and that "the billions spent by government on nuclear over the past sixty years crowded out other energy options".
The book suggests that there are practical reasons why nuclear reactors are unlikely to provide a solution to the global climate change problem.
Stephanie Cooke has written about the nuclear industry since the 1980s, and is a contributor to the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists.
There have been many media interviews about In Mortal Hands.

Contesting the Future of Nuclear Power: A Critical Global Assessment of Atomic Energy is a 2011 book by Benjamin K. Sovacool, published by World Scientific.
Sovacool’s book explores the global nuclear power industry, its fuel cycle, nuclear accidents, environmental impacts, social risks, and economics.
There is a postscript on the Japanese 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster.
Based on detailed analysis, Sovacool concludes "that a global nuclear renaissance would bring immense technical, economic, environmental, political, and social costs".
He says that it is renewable energy technologies which will enhance energy security, and which have many other advantages.
Reviewer Mark Diesendorf says that one weakness of the book is the limited coverage of nuclear weapons proliferation.
He says that governments of several countries (e.g., France, India, North Korea, Pakistan) have used nuclear power and/or research reactors to assist nuclear weapons development.

A Penthouse is typically an apartment on the highest floor of an apartment building.
It usually takes up less than half of the entire (flat) roof of the building.
Originally the word penthouse meant a small building with a sloped roof.
The modern use of the word started in the 1920s in America.
In the age of skyscrapers the "house" on the roof was called a penthouse.
A penthouse can also be commercial space.
Types of penthouses
Office buildings have penthouse office suites.
Another use for a penthouse is as a restaurant or Café.
Their position on a top floor of a building allows for scenic views while dining.
The Museum of Modern Art in New York City has a penthouse meeting area.
A penthouse can also house a studio, such as a photographic studio.
Building codes
Under some Building codes a penthouse cannot be more than one-third the size of the floor below it.
There is no limit to the number of penthouses a building can have.
The only limit is the amount of space they can take up (one-third rule).
Also, some building codes do not allow mechanical or electrical equipment to count as a penthouse unless they are enclosed by a roof.
What does “penthouse” really mean?
