Cinquecento (in English: Five hundred) is an Italian term used to describe the Italian Renaissance of the 16th century, including the related styles of art, music, literature, and architecture.
It is considered the century when Italy was the leader in the European civilization
Michelangelo Buonarroti was one the most famous artists in the Cinquecento Italy: he was a painter, sculptor, architect, poet, and engineer.
Along with Leonardo da Vinci, he was often called a "Renaissance man" which means that he had great talent in many areas.
They include two very famous marble statues, the Pieta in Saint Peter's Basilica and David which once stood in a piazza in Florence but is now in the Accademia Gallery.
His most famous paintings were huge frescos, the Sistine Chapel Ceiling and the Last Judgement.
His most famous work of architecture was the east end and dome of Saint Peter's Basilica.
The tuscan Leonardo da Vinci lived the last years of his life in the Cinquecento.
He created in this century two of his pictures that are among the best-known paintings in the world: the Mona Lisa and the Last Supper.
In architecture the Cinquecento is famous because of Andrea Palladio (1508–80), "the most influential architect of the whole Renaissance".
Palladio was to transform the architectural style of both palaces and churches by taking a different perspective on the notion of Classicism.
While the architects of Florence and Rome looked to structures like the Colosseum and the Arch of Constantine to provide formulae, Palladio looked to classical temples with their simple peristyle form.
When he used the “triumphal arch” motif of a large arched opening with lower square-topped opening on either side, he invariably applied it on a small scale, such as windows, rather than on a large scale as Alberti used it at Sant’Andrea’s.
This Ancient Roman motif is often referred to as the Palladian Arch.
Historically the Cinquecento is characterized by the end of the process of unification of Italy, because of the French invasions and the Sack of Rome in 1527.
Later in the century Italy was devastated by the "Italian wars" done mainly between France and the emerging Spain (a new country that enjoyed the richness and power from the discovery of America done by Cristoforo Colombo), that divided between themselves the Italian peninsula and its "Rinascimento richness".

| type_species           = Conus marmoreus| type_species_authority = Linnaeus, 1758}}Conus is a large genus of small to large predatory sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs, with the common names of cone snails, cone shells or cones.
Shaped, as the name suggests, like a cone, many species have colorful patterning on the shell surface.
Conus snails are mostly tropical in distribution.
Geologically speaking, the genus is known from the Eocene to the present.
All Conus'' snails are venomous.
They hunt and eat marine worms or molluscs.
The larger ones prey on small bottom-dwelling fish.
Cone snails use a hypodermic-like modified radula tooth and a venom gland to attack and paralyze their prey before eating it.
The tooth is sometimes likened to a dart or a harpoon.
It is barbed and can be extended some distance out from the mouth of the snail, at the end of the proboscis.
They can "sting" humans, and should be handled with great care or preferably not at all.
Cone snail venoms are mainly peptides.
The venoms contain many different toxins that vary in their effects; some are extremely toxic.
The sting of small cones is no worse than a bee sting, but the sting of some larger species can be serious, occasionally even fatal to humans.
Cone snail venom may be a source of new, medically important substances.

In physical cosmology, the idea of  inflation is a proposed theory that would explain many features of the present-day universe, including the existence of large-scale structures such as galaxies.
The theory was proposed by Alan Guth in the 1970s.
Basic Idea of Inflation
Based on the Standard Model of Cosmology, the universe has been and is expanding.
The classical Big Bang theory assumes that the universe expanded at the same rate throughout universal history.
Inflation says that the universe has not always expanded at the same rate, and that the universe has experienced many periods of brief but immense expansions in which the size of the universe nearly doubled.
These periods, as said, were extremely short, lasting less than a second.
After a single period, the expansion slowed down until the next rapid inflation came and, again, massively increased the size of the universe.
Problems Solved by Inflation Theory
The main problem solved by inflation is the origin of large-scale structures, such as galaxies.
Inflation theory says that in a slow expansion of the universe, quantum fluctuations were only on the tiny distance scales; when the universe experienced a brief period of inflation, however, these quantum fluctuations are "stretched" much larger to cause density fluctuations.
The places of higher density later caused matter to clump in those locations and form large-scale objects.
Another problem is that of temperature uniformity in the universe: why is the temperature so evenly distributed?
Inflation says that objects that were previously in close proximity to one another were separated very quickly during a period of inflation, so the temperature balance was still held.
In the classical Big Bang theory this was a problem because the uniform expansion would mean that objects would have to travel many times the speed of light to maintain temperature balance.
Another problem that inflation possibly solves is the problem of magnetic monopoles.
Why do we no longer see magnetic monopoles in our universe?
Inflation says that the few existing monopoles were so dispersed during periods of inflation that it is virtually impossible to find them now.
Mathematical Formulation
Inflation theory uses General relativity to model the inflation mathematically.
The metric of inflation theory is
Predictions of Inflation Theory
Inflatons
The main prediction of inflation theory is that particles called inflatons are created from a scalar field from Quantum field theory.
These inflatons would drive the inflation periods of the universe, but they quickly decay so the inflation periods are not very long at all.
It was initially thought that the Higgs boson was an inflaton, but that has recently been discredited.
Inflation theory also suggests that there might be other universes.
If inflation caused our universe, could it not also cause many other universes as well?
This prediction has no empirical basis, but it has been explored in modern physics.
Inger Stevens (born Inger Stensland; October 18, 1934 – April 30, 1970) was a Swedish-American actress who was best known for her role as Katy in the television sitcom The Farmer's Daughter.
Stevens was born on October 18, 1934 in Stockholm, Sweden.
She was raised in New York City, New York and in Manhattan, Kansas.

Stevens committed suicide after drinking barbiturate (poison).
She died on her way to the hospital in Hollywood, California on April 30, 1970, aged 35.
Conidae is a family of minute to quite large sea snails.
They are marine gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Conoidea.
Their beautiful shells are highly collectible.
The snails within this family are sophisticated predatory animals.
The snails have eyes, and are active hunters.
They immobilize prey with a modified radular tooth.
The tooth delivers venom with neurotoxins; it is launched out of the snail's mouth in a harpoon-like action.
There have been many suggested changes to the classification of cone shells, and the details are still under investigation.
The very large genus Conus has 600 species, and there are six other subfamilies.

Electronic waste or e-waste is electronics that have been discarded.
This includes any electronics e.g. computers, power tools and etc.
E-waste is a concern for every country in the 21st century.
Because of Moore's law, the rule that states transistor numbers double every two years, people upgrade computers every 3 years on average.
People usually throw away their old laptops, cameras, computers, cell phones and televisions.
This creates a large amount of practically useless waste.
Most countries have methods to combat e waste and find a use for obsolete technology.
When you take in to account all the computer users in the world, over 30 million tons of e-waste is created nearly every year, along with a few billions of tons of other waste.

The Tragedy of Gorboduc is the earliest English tragedy in blank verse.
It was written by Thomas Sackville and Thomas Norton.
The writers took the story of the play from Geoffrey of Monmouth's History of the Kings of Britain (1138).
The play premiered before Queen Elizabeth I on 18 January 1561.
It was first printed in 1565.
It was printed again in 1570 as The Tragedy of Ferrex and Porrex.
The play is about a good king named Gorboduc.
He gives his kingdom away during his lifetime to his sons.
The sons quarrel over the throne.
Porrex, the younger son, kills his brother, Ferrex.
Their mother, Queen Videna, avenges the death of her older son by murdering Porrex.
Gorboduc and Videna are then killed by their horrified former subjects.
Norton wrote the first three acts; Sackville wrote the last two.
The playwrights took the tragedies of the Latin writer Seneca as their model,  but ignored the classical unities of time and place.
They used Classical elements such as the Chorus and the Messenger, but added non-Classical elements such as dumb shows (pantomimes) before each act.

The Governorship of Dalmatia (or Governatorato di Dalmazia in Italian) was a territory united to the Kingdom of Italy in April 1941, after the military conquest of the Jugoslavian Dalmatia by Italian general Vittorio Ambrosio during WWII.
It lasted until september 1943.
The Governorship of Dalmatia was made up of parts of coastal Kingdom of Yugoslavia that were occupied and annexed by Italy from April 1941 to September 1943.
Italy already had, since 1919, the Italian Province of Zara (Provincia di Zara) on the Dalmatian coastline with Zara as capital and the island of Lagosta (actually called Lastovo) after World War I (for a total area of about 200 square kilometers).
The creation of the Governorship of Dalmatia fulfilled the requests of the Italian Irredentism, that already were expressed during the "Incidents of Spalato".
But not all of Dalmatia was annexed by Italy, as the German puppet state - the Independent State of Croatia - took some sections of the Dalmatian areas, though the Italian army held control over all of Dalmatia.
The Kingdom of Italy divided the Governorship in three Italian provinces: Zara (Zadar), Spalato (Split) and Cattaro (Kotor), but never created officially an Italian region with the name "Dalmatia" (waiting for the future peace conference).
While the Governorship was not officially a region of Italy, the northern Dalmatian islands of Krk (Veglia) and Rab (Arbe) were administratively united to the Italian province of Fiume and became areas of the Kingdom of Italy.
The northern dalmatian islands of Krk and Rab were not added to the Governorship of Dalmatia, but were added to the Italian "Province of Fiume".
This province was enlarged with areas of northern coastal Dalmatia to the east of Fiume.
The Governatorate of Dalmatia consisted of three provinces: Zara, Cattaro and Spalato.
The administrative capital was Zara.
After autumn 1941 also the Dalmatian islands of Pago and Lesina, initially given to the croatian dictator Ante Pavelic, were annexed.
These islands were occupied militarily by the Italian army, along with an area of fascist Croatia that was off the coast of Segna to the center of Bosnia (near Sarajevo and Banja Luka).
After the Kingdom of Italy changed sides to the Allies in 1943, German forces took over the area.
This territory was not given to the fascist Italian Social Republic (which was a puppet state of Nazi Germany), but instead completely dissolved and added to the puppet Independent State of Croatia.

Reception by critics
The first reaction by critics to Q: Are We Not Men?
was mixed.
Tom Carson, wrote in Rolling Stone that "There's not an ounce of feeling anywhere, and the only commitment is to the distancing aesthetic of the put-on", and opined that "Devo lacks most of Eno's warmth and much of Bowie's flair for mechanized melodrama.
For all its idiosyncrasies, the music here is utterly impersonal."
Critic Robert Christgau gave the album a positive rating of a B+, but noted, "In small doses it's as good as novelty music ever gets, and there isn't a really bad cut on this album.
But it leads nowhere."
It was voted one of the best albums of the year in the Village Voice'''s Pazz & Jop critics poll for 1978.
In January 1980, Trouser Press also named it one of the best albums of 1978.
Later reception of the album has been mostly positive.
Steve Huey of the online music database Allmusic scored the album four and a half "stars" calling it "arguably Devo's strongest set of material, though several brilliant peaks can overshadow the remainder", and "a seminal touchstone in the development of American new wave."
is on "best of" lists, including Spins 50 Most Essential Punk Records, Pitchfork Media's top 100 albums of 1970s and Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.

A geosynchronous orbit is an orbit at a height of  above sea level on the Earth.
At this height, the orbit takes 24 hours, so it is in sync with the land on Earth (the 'geo' part of geosynchronous).
The geostationary orbit is the most common type of geosynchronous orbit.
This is right above the equator, so the satellites in this orbit do not swing north or south, but stay perfectly still above a point on the equator.
This is useful for communication satellites (including satellite TV).

Applied science is about using the findings of science to do something.
In the natural sciences, this is done by engineering.
In sciences such as psychology, this can mean using theoretical findings to improve a test method, for example.
Applied research is generally done to solve a problem.
Applied chemists invented refrigerants long ago to cool things.
Some refigerants escape into the atmosphere and damage the ozone layer, so chemists have developed new refrigerants in another example of applied research.
This work not driven by a desire to know, but by a desire to solve a specific problem.
