Jump to: navigation, search


HMS Ceylon taken by Vénus

HCS Bombay, later HMS Bombay and HMS Ceylon, was a 672 ton fifth rate, 38 gun wooden warship built in the Bombay Dockyard for the Honourable East India Company and launched in 1793. The Royal Navy purchased her in 1805 and renamed her HMS Bombay. She served with them under that name, and from 1 July 1808 as HMS Ceylon, until 1857.

On 17-18 September 1810, under the command of Charles Gordon, she was captured by Vénus and Victor. The next day, she was retaken by a British squadron composed of HMS Boadicea, HMS Otter and the brig HMS Staunch. Vénus was captured, and Victor managed to escape.

From c.1838 to 1852 she was the receiving ship at Malta, and from 1853 to 1855 the flagship of the Admiral superintendent there (Rear-Admiral Montagu Stopford and Admiral Houston Stewart during this period).

Hemopoietic growth factors

Hemopoietic growth factors

Jump to: navigation, search

Hemopoietic growth factors regulate the differentiation and proliferation of particular progenitor cells. Made available through recombinant DNA technology, they hold tremendous potential for medical uses when a person’s natural ability to form blood cells is diminished or defective. Recombinant erythropoietin (EPO) is very effective in treating the diminished red blood cell production that accompanies end-stage kidney disease.

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor and granulovyte CSF are given to stimulate white blood cell formation in cancer patients who are receiving chemotherapy, which tends to kill their red bone marrow cells as well as the cancer cells. Thrombopoietin shows great promise for preventing platelet depletion during chemotherapy. CSFs and thrombopoietin also improve the outcome of patients who receive bone marrow transplants.

Ten duotrigintillion

March 8th, 2010

















Googol

  (Redirected from Ten duotrigintillion)
Jump to: navigation, search
This article is semi-protected.

A googol is the large number 10100, that is, the digit 1 followed by one hundred zeros in decimal representation. The term was coined in 1938 by Milton Sirotta (1929–1980), nephew of American mathematician Edward Kasner, when he was nine years old. Kasner popularized the concept in his book Mathematics and the Imagination (1940).

A googol is of the same order of magnitude as the factorial of 70 (70! being approximately 1.198 googol). In binary it would take up 333 bits. A googol has no particular significance in mathematics, but is useful when comparing with other very large quantities such as the number of subatomic particles in the visible universe or the number of possible chess games. Edward Kasner used it to illustrate the difference between an unimaginably large number and infinity, and in this role it is sometimes used in teaching mathematics.

Other names for googol include ten duotrigintillion on the short scale, ten thousand sexdecillion on the long scale, or ten sexdecilliard on the Peletier long scale.

Googolplex

Main article: googolplex

A googolplex is ten raised to the power of one googol:

In the documentary Cosmos, astronomer and broadcast personality Carl Sagan estimated that writing a googolplex in base-10 numerals (i.e., 1 followed by a googol of zeroes) would be physically impossible, since doing so would require more space than the known universe provides.

Googol and comparable large numbers

Fewer than a googol Planck times have elapsed since the Big Bang (the current figure stands at around 8 × 1060 Planck times). On the other hand, the volume of the whole universe is about 9 × 10185 cubic Planck lengths.

A googol is greater than the number of protons in the universe, which has been variously estimated from 1079 up to 1081.

From the obvious figures it can be seen that a list of positions of every particle at every possible instant of time, at the maximum possible accuracy, would contain well over a googol entries (of the order of 10325), but still far less than a googolplex.

Avogadro’s number, 6.02214179 × 1023, is exactly the number of 12C atoms in 12 grams (0.012 kg) of unbound 12C in its ground state. It is perhaps the most widely known large number from chemistry and physics. Avogadro’s number is less than the fourth root of a googol.

Black holes are presumed to evaporate because they faintly give off Hawking radiation; if so, a supermassive black hole would take about a googol years to evaporate.

A googol is roughly equal to the factorial of 70; this number is 1.1987…  × 10100. It follows that there are more than a googol ways to arrange 70 objects into a sequence.

The odds are approximately one in a googol that 333 coins tossed in the air will all land heads up (2333 = 1.7498…  × 10100) or that a person repeatedly throwing a pair of dice will roll double sixes 65 consecutive times. (3665 = 1.4443 × 10101)

The Shannon number, 10120, a rough lower bound on the number of possible chess games, is more than a googol.

A googol is considerably less than the number described in the ancient Archimedes’ story of The Sand Reckoner, namely

But it should be noted that the system invented by Archimedes is reminiscent of a positional numeral system with base 108, so that Archimedes’ number could be written

that is, the analogue of the googol in base 108.

Here is a visual representation: 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

with commas: 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

One should also note that googol is a perfect 100th power.

In popular culture

  • Googol was the answer to the million-pound question: “A number one followed by 100 zeros is known by what name?” on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? when Major Charles Ingram attempted to defraud the quiz show on 10 September 2001. The other options were a megatron, a gigabit or a nanomole.
  • Googol is one of the 336 vocabulary words in the board game Balderdash, and their definition on the back of the card is “The number one followed by 100 zeros.”
  • In the January 23, 1963, Peanuts strip, Lucy asks Schroeder what the chances are of them getting married, and Schroeder responds “Oh, I’d say about ‘googol’ to one.”
  • In an episode of the animated series Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Fast Forward, the “Gaminator” video games system is said to have a “3-googolhertz processor.”
  • “A googolplex is precisely as far from infinity as is the number one.” — Carl Sagan, Cosmos
  • The company name Google is a misspelling of the word “Googol” made by founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, as described in the book The Google Story by David A. Vise.
  • Googol was a question in the 1995 film, The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes, when the two colleges were answering against each other. “What is a googol?” was the question. Norwood Gills answered with “One, followed by a hundred zeros”.
  • In Back to the Future III, Emmett Brown states that Clara was “One in a googolplex”.
  • In Steve Martin’s comedy album Comedy Is Not Pretty!, Martin talks about buying a googolphonic stereo system (which he erroneously describes as having, “the highest number of speakers before infinity…”) after not being satisfied with his stereophonic, quadraphonic, then dodecaphonic systems.
  • In an episode of Samurai Jack, the shape-shifting master of darkness Aku puts a price on the noble samurai’s head of 2 googolplex.
  • In a March 1976 comic book issue of Richie Rich (Vaults of Mystery #9), introduced a villain named “The Googol”.
  • In 2002 the band Clutch released their album Live At The Googolplex.
  • In The Simpsons animated television series the large cinema in Springfield is known as the “googolplex”
  • On Phineas & Ferb, Danville’s main shopping center is the Googolplex Mall.

The Maastunnel is a tunnel in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, connecting the banks of the Nieuwe Maas. About 75,000 motor vehicles and a large number cyclists, mopeds and pedestrians use the tunnel daily, making the Maastunnel an important part of Rotterdam’s road network. Building commenced in 1937 and finished in 1942.

Construction of the tunnel was preceded by years of animated discussions. Although there was agreement as to the need for a new permanent connection between the two banks of the Maas river, there was lack of agreement as to whether it should be a bridge or a tunnel. A tunnel proved to be more attractive financially than a bridge, largely because of the great height a bridge would have needed to avoid hindering the passage of ships from the port of Rotterdam, the largest port in Europe.

The Maastunnel was built using the sunken tube or immersed tube method. Separate parts of the Maastunnel were built elsewhere in a dry dock, and then floated into place and sunk into a trench dug in the river bottom, a technique used in many other Dutch tunnels after the Maastunnel. Each of the nine parts of the tunnel has a length of over 60 metres, a height of 9 metres and a width of 25 metres. They contain two adjacent tubes for motorised traffic, and two piled tubes for mopeds, cyclists and pedestrians next to it (accessible by escalator). At one time there was a laboratory in one of the ventilation buildings to examine the air quality in the tunnel.

The Maastunnel was opened to the public on February 14, 1942 and was the first car tunnel in the Netherlands. At the end of the Second World War overhead lines were installed to allow for the passage of trolleybuses. Although two buses were ready for these experimental rides, they were never used for public transportation in Rotterdam. In 1944 the Germans invaders placed explosives in the tunnel so they destroy it at a moment’s notice. Perhaps due to the sabotage of the detonators (the overhead lines) by the Dutch resistance the explosives were not detonated.

The length of the Maastunnel is 1070 metres (including access roads). The underground part is over 550 metres long. The lowest point of the tunnel is approximately 20 meters below sealevel. Above ground, the tunnel’s location can be recognized by its characteristic ventilation buildings on both sides of the river. It can be seen from the nearby Euromast tower as well.

Career

Bentley was born Artimus Lamont Bentley in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and moved to Los Angeles with his mother, Loyce, who wished to ignite her career as a singer. He began his career as a child actor appearing in television commercials and guest spots on television series before landing a role on the short-lived but critically acclaimed television series South Central in 1994. In 1996, South Central creator Ralph Farquhar cast Bentley in the series Moesha, which ran for six seasons on UPN.

After Moesha ended, Bentley continued acting while pursuing a career as a rapper. In 2001, he appeared in as C-Money in The Wash opposite Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg. That same year, he portrayed Tupac Shakur in the television biopic Too Legit: The MC Hammer Story. Bentley made one of his last onscreen appearances in Spike Lee’s crime drama Sucker Free City.

Death

In the early morning hours of January 19, 2005, Bentley was killed in a single-car accident in southern California’s Ventura County. He was driving on Highway 118 near Simi Valley (30 miles northwest of Los Angeles) when his vehicle went over an embankment, ejecting him (the sole occupant) from the vehicle and into traffic where five cars struck him. He is survived by two young daughters, Artesia and Brazil.

Evening Bat

Jump to: navigation, search

Evening Bat
Conservation status

Least Concern (IUCN 3.1)
Scientific classification
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Mammalia
Order: Chiroptera
Family: Vespertilionidae
Genus: Nycticeius
Species: N. humeralis
Binomial name
Nycticeius humeralis
Rafinesque, 1818

The Evening Bat (Nycticeius humeralis) is a species of vesper bat in the Vespertilionidae family. It is a small bat (7–15 grams) found throughout much of the midwestern and southeastern United States. In many areas (especially the Gulf Coast states) they are very common, but may be declining in some states. During the summer, they commonly roost in tree cavities but is also found occasionally in man-made structures. Colonies are generally small in trees, but groups can reach nearly 1,000 individuals, especially in buildings. Evening Bats feed heavily on beetles (Coleoptera), but they also eat moths (Lepidoptera) and to a lesser extent flies (Diptera) and other insects.

The reproductive pattern of this species is virtually unknown, but in other temperate zone Vespertilionid species, breeding occurs in fall and sperm is stored in the female reproductive tract until spring when ovulation and fertilization occurs. Two young are born in June and are capable of foraging on their own three weeks after birth.

The Evening Bat is generally thought to be migratory, but recent work suggests that some individuals may be non-migratory, even near the northern edge of their range. During winter, individuals continue to roost in tree cavities or buildings, and they may forage on warm days.
