Le Chaudron infernal is a French silent trick movie made in 1903.
It was directed by  Georges Méliès.
In  Britain it was released as The Infernal Cauldron and in the United States as The Infernal Caldron and the Phantasmal Vapors.
It was released by Méliès's Star Film Company and is numbered 499–500 in its catalogues.
In a Renaissance chamber decorated with devilish faces and a warped coat of arms, a gleeful Satan throws three human victims into a cauldron, which spews out flames.
The victims rise from the cauldron as nebulous ghosts, and then turn into fireballs.
The fireballs multiply and pursue Satan around the chamber.
Finally Satan himself leaps into the infernal cauldron, which gives off a final burst of flame.
The movies Meliès did before 1903 were often pirated by  American producers.
This is especially true for his popular movie A Trip to the Moon.
To fight against this product piracy, Méliès opened an American branch of his Star Film Company.
He began producing two negatives of each movie he made: one for home markets, and one for foreign release.
To produce the two separate negatives, Méliès built a special camera that used two lenses and two reels of film.
In the 2000s, researchers at the French film company Lobster Films noticed that Méliès's two-lens system was a fully functional, stereo film camera.
3D versions of Meliè' movies could e made by combining the domestic and foreign prints of the film.
Serge Bromberg, the founder of Lobster Films, presented 3D versions of The Infernal Cauldron and another 1903 Méliès film, The Oracle of Delphi, at a January 2010 presentation at the Cinémathèque Française.
According to the film critic Kristin Thompson, "the effect of 3D was delightful … the films as synchronized by Lobster looked exactly as if Méliès had designed them for 3D." Bromberg screened both films again—as well as the 1906 Méliès film The Mysterious Retort, similarly prepared for 3D—at a September 2011 presentation at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season was the most active Atlantic hurricane season ever recorded, breaking the record of 2005.
The season had a record-breaking 12 storms that hit the U.S, with many making landfall in Louisiana.
The season had had thirty-one tropical or subtropical cyclones, thirty named storms, fourteen hurricanes, and seven major hurricanes.
It had over twenty tropical storms that broke formation date records.
The season happened during the COVID-19 pandemic, making it harder to evacuate and give help to people who needed it.
Tropical Storm Arthur was an early storm.
It formed on May 16 from a stormy area near Cuba, and caused damage in Florida, North Carolina, and South Carolina, as well as The Bahamas and Bermuda.
Even though the storm was somewhat strong, it only lasted three days.
Tropical Storm Bertha was an early storm as well.
While it only lasted one day, it caused some damage in The Bahamas and Southern United States.
It also led to the Crew Dragon Demo-2 flight being delayed.
Tropical Storm Cristobal was the earliest third named storm on record.
The storm had formed from clouds left-over by Tropical Storm Amanda.
The storm formed in the Bay of Campeche, devastated Mexico, and stalled, before hitting Louisiana.
The storm then traveled up to Wisconsin, as a weaker tropical depression, before becoming post-tropical.
Tropical Storm Dolly was a short-lived storm.
It formed on June 22 as a subtropical system, becoming tropical on June 23, as it reached tropical storm status, and dissipated on June 24.
Tropical Storm Edouard formed in an unusual time of the year, in July.
It formed on July 4, and reached tropical storm status on July 6.
After reaching tropical storm status, it became the earliest fifth named storm until Hurricane Elsa formed on July 1, 2021.
Earliest sixth named storm.
Tropical Storm Fay formed off the coast of the Carolinas and then struck New Jersey as a tropical storm, weakening inland.
Tropical Storm Gonzalo
Earliest seventh named storm.
Nearly made a landfall in Guyana.
In July 23, Hanna formed in the Gulf of Mexico, from a tropical wave.
On July 24, it reached tropical storm status, becoming the earliest named eighth storm.
The storm rapidly strengthened,  becoming a hurricane on July 25.
It then before hitting Texas later that day.
The damage was bad, as a pandemic was growing at that time.
Isaias was a bad storm.
It hit the Bahamas, before moving up the east coast of the United States, making landfall in North Carolina.
Before the storm formed, it was broad and disorganized, but upon being named on July 30, Isaias became the earliest ninth named storm ever recorded.
It then moved up into the Dominican Republic, and then into the Bahamas.
It then traveled off the coast of the United States, and hit North Carolina.
Isaias caused over $4.2 billion dollars worth of damage.
Tropical depression Ten formed on July 31, but failed to strengthen due to harsh conditions.
The storm moved slowly, and dissipated on August 2.
Some tropical storm force winds were found in the center of the system by the National Hurricane Center, but they said it was bloated.
On August 20, a tropical wave organized into a tropical depression.
The next day, the depression, which was originally disorganized, strengthened into Tropical Storm Laura.
Upon reaching tropical storm status, it became the earliest twelfth tropical storm in the Atlantic.
The system then passed over the Leeward Islands, passing south of Puerto Rico.
The system made landfall on the Dominican Republic, but the system had not lost any strength, despite the mountainous terrain.
The system then made landfall in Cuba twice, before becoming a hurricane over the Gulf of Mexico on August 24.
The storm underwent rapid intensification, becoming a category 2 hurricane on August 25.
Laura became a major hurricane (Category 3) 9 hours later.
The storm then became a Category 4 six hours later.
Its highest winds were 150 mph.
The storm hit Louisiana around that time.
After going over Louisiana, the system quickly weakened, and lost its life over Kentucky.
In Louisiana, buildings were damaged very badly by the storm.
The highest winds were reported at 95 miles per hour in Lake Charles, along with a gust of 137 miles per hour also in Lake Charles.
Damage was the worst in Lake Charles, where almost every house had a tarp on it to keep out rain after their roofs had been destroyed.
Luckily, even though a push of water was suppose to be more than 15 feet in places, at last minute, it moved to the west, pushing all the water into places with less people.
Tropical Storm Omar
Earliest fifteenth named storm.
Very unusual track.
Earliest fourteenth named storm.
Formed after Omar, but strengthened into a tropical storm before Omar.
Hurricane Paulette
Earliest sixteenth named storm.
It then made a very rare landfall in Bermuda,  and then dissipated.
After it dissipated, it became a tropical storm again.
Because of this, people called it a "zombie storm," because it came back after dissipating.
Tropical Storm Rene
Hurricane Teddy
Earliest nineteenth named storm.
This storm formed and eventually became a category 4, before weakening and hitting Newfoundland with winds 65 mph.

Became a powerful Category 4 hurricane.
Struck Central America, Cuba, and Florida.
Tropical Storm Theta
On November 10, Subtropical Storm Theta formed, making the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season the busiest Atlantic hurricane season on record.
The next day, the storm transitioned into a tropical storm, as it peaked with winds of 70 mph (110 km/h).
The storm then weakened, but restrengthened to reach 65 mph (105 km/h), before weakening, and eventually dissipating on July 15.
Hurricane Iota was a deadly and damaging storm that hit Central America on November 17.
Forming in the Caribbean Sea, the storm strengthened a lot rapidly, becoming one of the latest Category 4 storms to form, reaching Category 4 status on November 16.
This is a table of all the storms that have formed in the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season.
Damage and deaths include totals while the storm was extratropical, a tropical wave, or a low, and all the damage figures are in USD.

A Majorana fermion(), also referred to as a Majorana particle, is a fermion that has the same properties as its antiparticle.
Ettore Majorana, an Italian physicist, thought they would exist, in 1937.
Majorana disappeared in 1938, and the particles are named after him.
As Majorana fermionns are thought to have the same properties as their antiparticles, they cannot have an electric charge.
Today, atomic particles with an electric charge are called Dirac fermions.
An example for Dirac fermions are electrons, and positrons; they have the same properties, but their electric charge is different.
The concept goes back to Majorana's suggestion of 1937.
Majorana suggested that  neutral spin- particles can be described by a real wave equation (the Majorana equation).
The wave functions of particle and antiparticle are related by complex conjugation.
For this reason, they would be identical to their antiparticle.
The difference between Majorana fermions and Dirac fermions can be expressed mathematically in terms of the creation and annihilation operators of second quantization: The creation operator  creates a fermion in quantum state  (described by a real wave function), whereas the annihilation operator  annihilates it (or, equivalently, creates the corresponding antiparticle).
For a Dirac fermion the operators  and  are distinct, whereas for a Majorana fermion they are identical.
The ordinary fermionic annihilation and creation operators  and  can be written in terms of two Majorana operators  and  by
Standard model of particle physics
The standard model of physics has no  Majorana fermions, all particles are Dirac fermions.
There are neutrinos, and anti-neutrinos.
In the standard model, neutrinos have no mass, though.
The question how to differentiate between neutrinos and anti-neutrinos is not settled yet.
Extensions to the standard model
There are different extensions of the standard model.
One of them is called Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model.
It allows for supersymmetry, and can transform one kind of particle, the bosons, into the other, the fermions.
In condensed matter physics, bound Majorana fermions can appear as quasiparticle excitations—the collective movement of several individual particles, not a single one, and they are governed by non-abelian statistics.

Numen, pl.
numina,  is a Latin term.
It is used  for "divinity", a "divine presence" or a "divine will."
The Latin authors defined it as follows.
Cicero writes of a "divine mind" (divina mens), a god "whose numen everything obeys," and a "divine power" (vis divina) "which pervades the lives of men."
It causes the motions and cries of birds during augury.
In his Aeneid, Virgil tells about the  how the one-eyed giant, Polyphemus, is blinded:  First, Odysseus and his men "ask for the assistance of the great numina" (magna precati numina).
Reviewing public opinion of Augustus on the day of his funeral, the historian Tacitus reports that some thought "no honor was left to the gods" when he "established the cult of himself" (se ... coli vellet) "with temples and the effigies of numina" (effigie numinum).
Pliny the younger in a letter to Paternus raves about the "power," the "dignity," and "the majesty;" in short, the "numen of history."
Lucretius uses the expression numen mentis, or "bidding of the mind," where "bidding" is numen, not, however, the divine numen, unless the mind is to be considered divine, but as simply human will.
Since the early 20th century, numen has sometimes been treated in the history of religion as a pre-animistic phase.
This is a belief system that comes from an earlier time.
Sociologists also use the term Numen to refer to the idea of magical power coming from an object, particularly when writing about ideas in the western tradition.
When used in this sense, numen means almost the same thing as mana.
However, some authors only use the word mana for ideas about magic from Polynesia and Southeast Asia.
The literal meaning is simply "a nod", or more accurately,"that which is produced by nodding".
In the same way, flamen is "that which is produced by blowing", i.e., a gust of wind.
It came to mean "the product or expression of power" — not, be it noted, power itself.
Numen (divinity) is not personified (although it can be a personal attribute) and should be distinguished from deus (god).
Roman cults of the numina
Numen was also used in the imperial cult of ancient Rome, to refer to the guardian-spirit, 'godhead' or divine power of a living emperor.
It was  a way of worshiping a living emperor without literally calling him a god.
The cult of Augustus was promoted by Tiberius, who dedicated the Ara Numinis Augusti.
In this context, a distinction can be made between the terms numen and genius.
Definition as a pre-animistic phase of religion
The expression Numen inest appears in Ovid's Fasti (III, 296) and has been translated as 'There is a spirit here'.
Its interpretation, and the exact sense of numen has been discussed extensively in the literature.
Some people thought, that numen could have been a leftover of ealier animist religions which was incorporated into the Roman religion.
Sometimes the etymology of Latin names for deities, has often been popularly implied,  but it  was criticised as "mostly a scholarly fiction" by McGeough (2004).
Numina and specific religions
The phrase "numen eris caeloque redux mirabere regna" appears on line 129 of the poem Metrum in Genesin, attributed to Hilary of Arles.
Innocue vivito, numen adest (Live blameless; God is here.)
was the motto of Carl Linnaeus, taken from Ovid's Ars Amatoria (I, 640).
Its origin could be the phrase "...non haec sine numine divum eveniunt" (...these things do not come to pass without the will of Heaven) from Virgil's Aeneid (II, 777).
Benigno numine (with divine favor) is the motto of the city of Pittsburgh.
Numen lumen (God is the light) is the motto of the University of Wisconsin–Madison and Elon University.
The term numen appears three times (142.23, 162.13, 282.21) in James Joyce's Finnegans Wake.
