CBRNE is an acronym for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive materials.
These materials are very dangerous, and can hurt many people.
When they are used on purpose, CBRNE materials are weapons of mass destruction.
However, CBRNE events can also happen accidentally.
A report from the White House in 2011 said "there is no greater danger to the [United States] than a terrorist attack with a weapon of mass destruction."
Because CBRNE weapons are so dangerous, countries around the world are working on preventing CBRNE attacks, and learning how to react to them if they do happen.
Types of CBRNE weapons
Nerve agents, which attack the central nervous system.
Examples include types of pesticides called organophosphates; sarin; and VX.
Blister agents, which cause burns and blisters both inside and outside of the body.
Examples include the mustard gases.
Blood agents, which make it impossible for the blood to carry oxygen to the body.
The most common blood agents are made with cyanide.
Choking agents, which attack the lungs and make them fill with fluid.
This makes breathing impossible.
Examples include chlorine gas and phosgene.
Incapacitating agents, which are designed to hurt a large number of people, and make it impossible for them to fight back, but without killing them.
Examples include tear gas and pepper spray.
International laws make it illegal to use chemical weapons.
However, terrorists have ignored these laws.
For example, in 1995, terrorists attacked the subway in Tokyo, Japan, with sarin.
The goal of biological weapons is to get as many people sick with infectious diseases as possible.
Types of biological weapons include:
Bacteria, like the bacteria that cause anthrax and plague
Viruses, like the ones that cause smallpox, Ebola, and the flu
Toxins (poisons made by living things), like ricin, botulism toxin, and aflatoxin
In 2001, a terrorist used a biological weapon against the United States by sending letters filled with anthrax through the mail to many different people.
Ricin has also been sent through the mail as a biological attack.
Radiological
A radiological weapon is any kind of weapon that spreads radiation.
A dirty bomb which uses radioactive material to cause lasting effect on the environment
Contaminating food or water supplies with radioactive contamination
N is for Nuclear explosion.
This can occur one of two ways Fissure and Fusion.
Fissure occurs when an atom is spliced apart forming two new atoms.
This causes a discharge of energy.
Fusion on the other hand forces two atoms together.
The process breaks apart the atoms and fuses them together.
The reaction discharges energy.
Many countries have tested nuclear weapons.
World War II, the United States dropped two nuclear bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
In Hiroshima, the nuclear bomb destroyed  of the city, and killed 60,000 to 80,000 people right away.
More people later died from radiation sickness and cancer caused by radiation, so historians think about 135,000 people were killed by the one nuclear bomb that hit Hiroshima.
In Nagasaki, the nuclear bomb created about  of heat, and winds as fast as .
It killed somewhere between 39,000 and 80,000 people.
The United Nations later made the use of Nuclear weapons illegal which is largely due to the radiation that is brought along with as well as earthquakes and other natural disasters.
While true to this day many countries still manufacture these weapons today.
E as in explosives stands for high-yield explosive.
High-yield explosive is materials that rapidly release large amounts of energy and produce a pressure shock wave during detonation.
High-Yield Explosions can occur in labs and hospitals that contain compressed gas.
One highly explosive gas is Acetylene which is commonly found under pressure to containment and later use.
There are types of liquids like Nitroglycerin that can be subjected to pressure explosion as well.
Accidental CBRNE events
Chemical: Accidental chemical spills (like an oil spill, or a dangerous chemical leaking out of a laboratory)
Biological: Outbreaks of infectious disease (like a flu epidemic)
Radiological: Accidental spills of radioactive chemicals in laboratories or hospitals (like a spill of uranyl nitrate, which is used to look at viruses under electron microscopes); accidents during radiation therapy
Nuclear: Accidents at nuclear power plants like Chernobyl and Three Mile Island
Explosive:  A person who is on oxygen for breathing problems lights a cigarette and accidentally blows up her entire apartment building

An intervertebral disc is a kind of padding between vertebrae in the vertebral column.
They are shock absorbers in the spine, and are very important to the health of the spine.
The disc is a fibrocartilaginous joint.
It allows slight movement of the vertebrae, and acts as a ligament to hold the vertebrae together.
Discs have an outer fibrous ring, made up of both type I and type II collagen.
Type I is concentrated towards the edge of the ring where it provides greater strength.
The fibrous intervertebral disc contains the nucleus pulposus and this helps to  distribute pressure evenly across the disc.
The nucleus pulposus contains loose fibers suspended in a mucoprotein gel.
The nucleus of the disc acts as a shock absorber, absorbing impacts and keeping the two vertebrae separated.
It is the remnant of the notochord.
Spintronics is a kind of electronics that uses the tiny magnetic fields that come from electrons as well as their electric charge.
The word spintronics is made up of the words spin and electronics
In atoms, electrons can be said to go around the nucleus of an atom and possess some spinning energy.
They also have  their own spin, like a spinning top, which  is separate from the atom and they keep even when they are moving  freely.
There are two ways for  something  to spin, clockwise and anti-clockwise.
In the tiny quantum world the terms  'up' or 'down' are used instead.
The electron spin of large numbers of electrons plays a role as a source of the magnetism in permanent magnets.
In most materials these spins are random in direction and so no magnetic field results.
In normal electronics  the flow of current in a wire  can also be used to produce a magnetic field which is known as electromagnetism.
Neither of these form a part of spintonics.
In spintronics the property of the spin of the electrons themselves is used directly.
It  makes use of the electrons in a solid metal or semiconductor.
In spintronics the electron spin of just a few electrons in a material are made to align in one direction by briefly applying a very large magnetic field.
Even when the magnetic field is removed the electrons will remain aligned in  their spins.
This alignment will slowly fade away over time but will persist for a while.
Since these aligned spins produce a resultant  magnet field they can be detected and even used to move  the electrons.
The deliberate moving of only those electrons with a certain spin  can be used to store information and this technology has been called spintronics to distinguish it from conventional use of electrons in electronics which uses their electric charge only.
Spintronics is an area of research in which scientists are trying to make useful devices and are making progress.
Some devices write the electron spin codes into the surface of a moving disk and others make them in sold transistor junctions as RAM.
They promise a technology that could create faster and  smaller electronic devices that  use less energy.

Show, don't tell is a type of writing technique used by authors.
Instead of explaining a story, as in a summary, a writer makes the reader feel what is happening.
It creates a picture of something in the reader's mind.
When the reader gets a clear mental picture the story becomes more interesting.
The technique is used in both fiction and non-fiction writing.
Examples of show, don't tell
Telling: "The room was perfect.
She saw it and was immediately transported back to her childhood because it had all the elements she remembered."
Showing: "She threw open the wide oak door and stepped into a past from twenty years ago.
The bedroom she remembered, down to the last detail.
Pink candy-striped walls with white trim.
A thick white shag carpet, two plush maroon velvet chairs flanking a silent fireplace."
In the first example, the author is telling what the character feels.
In the second example, the author is allowing the reader to picture what the character was experiencing when she opened the door.
Good writing may involve both showing and telling.
A scene shows the reader what is happening.
It allows the reader to experience the action and emotions of the people in the story.
A summary is often used between scenes to connect them together to create a story.
Another use of summaries is in places where a part of the story needs to be brief.
Showing takes more words than telling.
Less important parts of a story are sometimes mentioned very briefly.

Property (philosophy), in philosophy and science, a feature or characteristic of something
Material property, a feature or characteristic of a material
Chemical property, a feature of a material that appears during a chemical reaction
Physical property, a feature or characteristic of something which can be measured
Thermodynamic properties, physical properties of substances
Mental property, a feature or characteristic of the mind
Real property, a piece of land that is owned by somebody, including any buildings on this land
Theatrical property (usually known as a "prop"), any object used by a performer
A property, commonly shortened to prop (plural: props), is any object used in performing arts during a performance.
They are used on the stage in theatre, and on the screen by actors in movies and television.
A prop is anything on a stage or a set that is able to be moved.
It is different from the scenery, costumes and production equipment.
Anything that is used but is not part of the scenery (the set) is a prop, e.g., furniture, a book that an actor pretends to read, a pipe that they smoke.
Food appearing in the production is also a prop.
Props are looked after by a properties master.
Sometimes, for small things like books or fans, it is the actor who is responsible for making sure he has the prop.
This is called a "personal prop".
People have been accidentally killed by props.
One case is from 2021.

A blood agent is a poisonous chemical.
A blood agent makes it impossible for a person's blood to hold oxygen and bring it to the rest of the body.
Blood agents can cause life-threatening symptoms like seizures or coma, which happen because the brain is not getting enough oxygen.
In high enough doses, blood agents can make a person suffocate.
The most common types of blood agents are chemical compounds that include cyanide.
However, other blood agents are based on arsenic.
Types of blood agents
There are many different blood agents.
Below is some information about the blood agents that are most likely to be used as weapons of mass destruction:
All of these chemicals are colorless, except for phosgene.
Phosgene gas is colorless, but liquid phosgene is a very light yellow.
Usually, the bloodstream carries oxygen from the air we breathe to the entire body.
The cells in the body need oxygen to survive, and they also need to get rid of carbon dioxide.
(Carbon dioxide is left over when cells make energy; too much of it is poisonous.)
Usually, cells pick up oxygen from the bloodstream, and send carbon dioxide out into the bloodstream.
This is called gas exchange.
Blood agents prevent gas exchange.
They keep oxygen from getting into the body's cells.
Without oxygen, cells die.
If a person gets a high enough dose of a blood agent, they will suffocate because the oxygen they breathe in cannot get into the body's cells.
"Exposure" means that a chemical touched or got into a person's body.
That person has been "exposed" to the chemical.
Most people who are exposed to blood agents breathe in or swallow the chemical.
This can happen accidentally or on purpose.
For example, there are cyanide compounds in cigarette smoke and in smoke from many building fires.
Also, cyanide compounds and arsine are used in pesticides.
Most exposures to arsine happen accidentally to people who work around these chemicals.
How much of the blood agent the person breathed in or swallowed (this is called concentration)
How long the person was exposed to the blood agent (duration)
If a person is exposed to a small amount of a blood agent, their symptoms may not be life-threatening.
For example, they may get confused, feel very tired, or have a headache, nausea, and vomiting.
Seizures (caused by the brain not getting enough oxygen)
Cardiac arrhythmias (caused by the heart not getting enough oxygen)
Coma (because the brain is not getting enough oxygen to keep the person conscious)
Blood agents act very quickly.
If a person gets a high enough dose, they will start having these symptoms just a few seconds after being exposed.
They can die in minutes - or even seconds - from respiratory failure.
There are a few different antidotes to cyanide poisoning.
The cyanide antidote kit used most often in the United States includes three medications: amyl nitrite and sodium nitrite, which attach to cyanide and change it to a less dangerous chemical, and sodium thiosulfate, which turns cyanide into a harmless chemical that a person can urinate out.
A form of vitamin B12 that is made by bacteria, called hydroxocobalamin, is also an antidote to cyanide.
It changes cyanide into regular vitamin B12.
There are no antidotes for arsine or phosgene.
Medical professionals can only give "supportive care," which means they can only treat arsine poisoning's symptoms.
For example, they can give oxygen through a mask; give medications for cardiac arrhythmias; and do dialysis for kidney failure.
Use in war and execution
The first blood agent to be used as a weapon of mass destruction was phosgene.
Phosgene was first used by the German Army to attack the British Army in 1915.
After that, phosgene was used often during World War I.  Countries on both sides of the war - including Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States - used phosgene to attack enemy soldiers.
Often they mixed it with chlorine, with the goal of killing more people.
Phosgene caused about 85% of the 100,000 deaths caused by poison gas during the war (a total of about 85,000 deaths).
After nerve gases were discovered, blood agents were not used as much.
However, in the 1980s, Iraq used cyanogen chloride against Iran in the Iran-Iraq War.
Starting in 1924, the United States has used hydrogen cyanide in gas chambers to execute prisoners who were given the death penalty.
Most states now use other ways of executing people.
However, execution by hydrogen cyanide is still legal in six states.
Tunguska event is the name for a very large mid-air explosion that occurred on 30 June 1908 in Siberia.
Most eyewitnesses talk about one or more explosions that happened around 7:15 a.m. local time.
The cause of these explosions is unknown, but a meteorite impact has been suggested as a likely cause.
About  around the place where the event happened, trees were uprooted.
In Wanwara, a small settlement, about  away, windows and doors were smashed.
It is estimated, that in an area of about , the trees were uprooted.
Over  away, bright light was seen, and an earthquake was felt.
There are no reports of people who have died.
This is attributed to the fact that almost no people lived in the area, at the time.
Depending on the source, there were one or two casualties.
Today, it is believed that the event happened about  above ground, at 0:14 UTC (7:14 a.m. local time).
Energy involved
What happened is called air burst today.
At the time, the energy involved was estimated to be between 10 and 30 megatons of TNT, depending on the height in which the air burst happened.
Simulations that have been done with modern computers have found that the energy involved was probably between 3 and 5 megatons of TNT.
Taking 15 megatons, this would mean that the energy involved was 1.000 times that of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, in 1945.
The shock wave is considered to be that of an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.0 on the Richter scale.
For these reasons, the Tunguska event is considered the largest impact event on Earth in recorded history.
Expeditions to the area
At first, there was no interest in the event.
Over a decade after the event, Leonid Kulik, a Russian mineralogist led an expedition to the area.
In his expedition of 1921 and 1922, he only got to Kansk, which is  away from the "epicenter" of the event.
In 1927, Kulik reached the region where the event happened, in 1938 he ordered aerial photos be taken.
Kulik's expedition is the first recorded expedition to the area.
Since then, there were many expeditions; over 1,000 articles have been published on the event; most of them are in Russian language.
Today, there is no definite explanation for what caused the explosions, or for what happened.
There are different theories, though.
Meteorite explosion
A meteorite hit the area.
The most probable is an asteroid or comet of low density, and a diameter of between  and .
The object exploded in a height of 7 to 14 km above ground; for this reason there is no impact crater.
The problem with this theory is that meteorites of this type usually do not reach low levels of the atmosphere.
Meteoroids, which contain more iron have a higher chance of reaching low levels of the atmosphere, but they do not cause such devastating explosions.
Lake Cheko
Lake Cheko is a small freshwater lake, about  from the center of the event.
The lake does not show on maps of the area which are older than about 1928.
Before 1908, it seems to be unknown.
The lake is rectangular; it is 708 metres long, 364 m wide, and about 50 m deep.
In 1999, Luca Gasperini did a study on the sediments in the lake, and found that the lake predates the event of 1908.
In 2007, National Geographic cites him as he states that it is possible the lake formed as an impact crater.
This is disputed due to the spread of trees, destroyed from the widely accepted Meteorite explosion.
Geophysical theories: Volcanic eruption
The other theory is that the event has a geophysical cause: About 10 million ton of natural gas exploding would have the effect that was observed.
The problem with this theory is that eyewitnesses spoke of a very bright light that could be seen from very far away.
A natural gas explosion does not produce a bright light.
A grand jury is a legal body which has the power to conduct official proceedings to investigate possible criminal conduct.
They also decide whether criminal charges should be brought.
A grand jury may subpoena evidence and may compel the sworn testimony of witnesses who appear before it.
Grand juries are made up of from 16 to 23 people in the United States.
They meet for a period of one month up to a year.
However, jurors may only have to meet for a few days each month.
The juries meet in private.
The suspected person, called a suspect, is not usually present.
About half the states in the US do not regularly use grand juries.
A preliminary hearing may be used instead.
The Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution requires the use of grand juries by the federal legal system for all capital and "infamous crimes" (cases involving treason, certain felonies or gross moral turpitude).
In 1166 an enactment of King Henry II of England, called the Assize of Clarendon, called for "the oath of *twelve men from every hundred and four men from every vill" to meet and decide who was guilty of robbery, theft or murder.
It was the early ancestor of the jury system and of the grand jury.
The United Kingdom abolished grand juries in 1933.
Many of their former colonies including
Canada, Australia and New Zealand have also stopped using them.
Grand juries are called by a federal judge and are required to supervise them.
But judges almost never interfere.
The grand jury is led by a federal prosecutor.
He cannot testify or be present while the jury deliberates.
But most federal grand juries will return any indictment presented to it.
This led to the famous saying "a prosecutor can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich."
They can subpoena anything they want with very few restrictions.
In United States v. R. Enterprises, Inc., 498 U.S. 292 (1991), the Supreme Court of the United States ruled "federal grand jury subpoenas are presumed to be reasonable and the burden of showing unreasonableness is on the recipient."
A grand jury, state or federal, has two functions.
The first is to go over all evidence of criminal wrongdoing and to issue an indictment only if there is enough evidence.
Their other purpose is to investigate and help the prosecutor gather evidence.
Critics claim grand juries have failed to do both.

A vault is an apparatus that male and female gymnasts perform on.
A vault is included in gymnastics competitions such as the olympics.
The gymnasts first run before they flip on the vault.
Either the male or female gymnast perform a flip in the air and land on the floor.
When the gymnast lands on the floor, he or she has to be in balance.
Early forms of the vault were invented by German Friedrich Ludwig Jahn.
The apparatus itself originated as a "horse", much like the pommel horse but without the handles.
It was sometimes called a "vaulting horse".
The horse was set up with its long side perpendicular to the run for women, and parallel for men.
The vaulting horse was the apparatus used in the Olympics for over a century It began with the 1896 Summer Olympics and ending with the Gymnastics at the 2000 Summer Olympics.
Following a number of problems, International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) changed the apparatus.
They did it for both safety reasons and for better acrobatics.
The 2001 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships were the first international competition to make use of the "vaulting table".
This was an apparatus made by Dutch gymnastics equipment company Janssen-Fritsen since the mid-1990s.
It features a flat, larger, and more cushioned surface almost parallel to the floor.
It slopes downward at the end closest to the springboard.
Gymnasts nicknamed it the "tongue".
Web design is a profession where a person designs a web page or a web site.
The web page can have graphics, music, animations, and many other things on it.
Some web design is done for businesses, and some is done for individual people.
Some web designs are used a lot and have standard templates that are free for people to use.
People who design web pages are called web designers.
Web designers use HTML or Dynamic HTML (DHTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), JavaScript, and many other technologies to make their pages.
Web designers can make their pages on the Internet using website building software, or offline on their computer.
Web designers in the United States of America can earn between $31,650 and $69,510 a year, with a median salary of $46,327.
The design of your website can either make or break the business you're trying to deliver.
It really makes a difference how your target audience sees your business or organization and potentially turns them into your customers.
When a company has a well-designed website, it's easier to get more customer conversions.
This is because a well-designed website uses its features to lead consumers directly to what they need without distraction.
So its very important to have a well-designed website in this Digital era.

Early in the war, the US lent many weapons to the British to fight German forces, including the Thompson submachine gun.
However, since the Thompson was expensive to make in large numbers, the British made a submachine gun of their own, that would be cheap and quick to make.
This was the Sten Mk II.
The weapon was only made of 47 parts, making it relatively fast to put together and take apart and therefore easy to ship and hide.
This feature made it popular among resistance fighters, including the Free French.
It was also the first SMG to have a silencer made for it, making it useful for stealth and surprise.
However, due to its low quality, it was not a very reliable weapon as it had the tendency to jam, and to fire entire clips without pulling the trigger.
It is stated that British soldiers who captured German MP-40's would often abandon the Sten and fight using the MP-40 instead.
The switch was not difficult since both weapons fired the same type of bullet, the 9x19mm Parabellum, with the same type of clips (which meant that they could use the enemy's ammunition to load their Stens or vice versa).
The Thompson submachine gun, a.k.a.
the Tommy gun, was an early submachine gun design.
It was popular among soldiers, police, and civilians alike.
It was invented by Brigadier General John T. Thompson at the end of World War I as a "trench-boom" weapon, or a weapon that could clear out trenches very quickly.
The war ended before the submachine gun could be used in battle.
In 1919, Brigadier General Thompson had the company he founded, Auto-Ordnance Company, modify the gun for civilian use.
The gun was classified as a submachine gun, meaning a small, fully automatic, hand-held gun that fires pistol ammunition.
It remains an iconic firearm that is very popular with collectors.
It fires .45 ACP caliber bullets, an effective and accurate combat bullet against human targets.
Technical specification
Caliber: .45 ACP
Weight:  empty
Operation: friction delayed gas blowback
Capacity: 20/30 round stick magazines; 50/100 drum magazines.
In 1882, John T. Thompson entered the United States Army.
During the Spanish–American War he made a reputation for himself making sure ammunition got to the front lines.
This was at a time of almost complete chaos in the army supply system.
