    No. 2817: CREATIVITY
    by: Krešimir Josić

    Click here for audio of Episode 2817
    Today, let’s talk about creativity. The University of Houston Mathematics Department presents this program about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them.

    Where do ideas come from? How did Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla come up with a continuous stream of inventions over decades? An often repeated tale about Edison says that when facing a tough problem he would sit down in a comfortable chair with a metal ball in his hand. As he drifted off to sleep the ball would fall to the ground waking him, and the solution to the problem would be there — clear in his mind.

    I don’t know whether this story is true. But many mathematicians have solved difficult problems while dreaming, or while not consciously working on them. The famous Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan claimed that his family goddess would present him with complex mathematical equations in his dreams. In another example, a mathematician included a dead friend as a co-author on a manuscript that was a culmination of years of work. The deceased friend was not a mathematician. However, he appeared to him in a dream and provided a crucial insight that allowed him to complete his efforts.

    NGC 2818 is a planetary nebula located in the southern constellation Pyxis (The Compass). It consists largely of glowing gases from the star's outer layers ejected during the final stages of its life when it had run out of the fuel necessary to sustain its core fusion processes. The remnants of its core will remain as a white dwarf.

    It is often cited as a member of the open cluster NGC 2818A framing it, however, radial velocity differences between the planetary nebula and open cluster suggest a chance alignment. The case is an example of a superimposed pair, similar to NGC 2438 and M46.

    Partly because of their small total mass, open clusters have relatively poor gravitational cohesion. Consequently, open clusters tend to disperse after a relatively short time, typically some 10 million years, because of external gravitational influences amid other factors. Under exceptional conditions, open clusters can remain intact for up to 100 million years.

    Theoretical models predict that planetary nebulae can form from main-sequence stars of between 8 and 1 solar masses, which puts their age at 40 million years and older. Although there are a few hundred known open clusters within that age range, a variety of reasons limit the chances of finding a member of an open cluster in a planetary nebula phase. One such reason is that the planetary nebula phase for more massive stars belonging to younger clusters is on the order of thousands of years - a blink of the eye in cosmic terms. Only one association has been established between open clusters and nearby nebulae, the extremely distant nebula PHR 1315-6555.

    NEMEA 2825 ARMCHAIR
    Pedrali
    Nemea is a collection of classically-shaped seatings, whose visible, light structural elements seem to be smoothed by time, like findings from the Ancient Greece. The armchair seems to extend into an athletic pose, with its sinuous legs in solid ash grafted to the die-casted aluminium frame placed under the plywood seat. The embracing, comfortable backrest with armrests crowns the seat and allows to lean it on the table. Available in bleached ashwood, ruby red, cognac and black colour stained.

    where is level 2826??
    Question: it wednesday, where is level 2826? i've checked the HTML5, my scores is 455/450. Are you having a problem, KING?? has anyone here have level 2826?

    Answer: Try to remove and re-install Candy Crush at Facebook, if you have had the old version of Candy Crush that should give you the new one. The old version will no longer support new levels. Some browsers doesn't support the new fancy wild and free html5, not as King deliver it anyway (the web standard guys should so much have opted for xhtml, devs just abuse html5!!!), if you are affected, then pick another browser or buy another kind of device to play at.

    Train travel perfect for this route
    Posted Feb 24, 2015 Feb 24, 2015
    HOWRAH EXPRESS Route: Jamshedpur ––› Kolkata

    I didn't got my seat reserved as it was sudden plan to leave for Kolkata. I went to catch Ranchi-Howrah intercity express, but boarded to Adi-Hwh Express with general ticket.

    I approached the T.T.E. with general ticket to upgrade me for reservation wagon. He was very polite and within minutes provided me with a birth for my convenience without charging any extra penny. I rarely find so generous TTE like him these days.

    The train was scheduled to arrive at 1:10 pm but ended with 2:45 at last minutes of journey due to busy traffic.

    Overall it was a great journey in this train, and surely I'll prefer this train next time I plan my journey.
    Train name (Train no): HOWRAH EXPRESS(2833)
    Tickets booked:
    • Tatkal
    This train has:
    • Veg. Food
    • Non-veg food
    • Clean toilets
