Beautiful Heart and Mind of Love


Book Description

Love, an intense feeling of deep affection and a great interest and pleasure in someone unconditional, the kind we all want; not disappointment, impatience, irritation, or anger. But the kind of love most people need but never had is the love that goes deeper than affection, attraction, lust, or friendship. It’s deep mutual love of respect, trust, honesty, integrity, intimacy, chemistry, and partnership. Love is experienced together, not separately. When you see someone as part of your life and future, this is love. Finding love is not easy because, one thing, I found out you have to love yourself first before someone can love you; because looks can deceive, but our heart, mind, and soul tells it all. These words I have written from my heart is to someone I have not met yet, but until that day and time come, I hope these words help and touch someone’s heart that reads this book in their life of love.

The Dallying and Delays of Venice’s Flood Protection System ISA SOARES, CNN ANCHOR The water level in Venice is expected to reach 150 centimeters in the coming hours, which is considered exceptional. The city is suffering its worst flooding in more than half a century, and all the damage could cost hundreds of millions of dollars, but Tuesday’s high tide may have never reached the lagoon city if a major engineering project had been ready on time. CNN’s Tom Sater explains why. TOM SATER, CNN CORRESPONDENT In 1966, Venice experienced its worst flood in history when water levels reached 194 centimeters, according to government statistics. Italy then invested billions of dollars in a system of floodgates that were supposed to protect Venice from the disastrous flooding the city is experiencing right now. It’s called MOSE—an Italian acronym for “Experimental Electromechanical Module.” The flood protection system is a series of underwater barriers designed to safeguard the three inlets leading to Venice’s lagoon during high tides. The system consist[s] of a series of bright-yellow gates that reach from one side of the inlet to the other set in a trench on the seafloor. Each gate is built from reinforced steel that provides resistance from the pounding waves. When a tide higher than 110 centimeters is forecast, compressed air is pumped into the gates, causing them to rise above the surface. When the high waters recede, the gates sink below the surface to their original position. There are a total of 78 gates among the three inlets. Engineers are currently working on how to raise them simultaneously. The first testing is expected next year. Work began on the barrier project in 2003. It has been under construction for years. An embarrassing corruption scandal, cost increases and related delays have caused many setbacks. It is now scheduled to be in operation by 2022. But as the climate crisis continues to cause sea levels to rise, the threat to the city is expected to worsen. Tom Sater, CNN. CNN主播 伊莎.索爾斯 威尼斯的水位預期將在接下來的幾個小時內達到一百五十公分,這被認為極不尋常。這座城市遭逢了超過半世紀以來最嚴重的洪水,全部的損害恐怕要花費好幾億美元,不過,一項大型工程計畫要是如期到位的話,週二的高潮可能根本就不會波及這座潟湖城市。本台記者湯姆.薩特說明原因。 CNN特派員 湯姆.薩特 一九六六年,威尼斯遭逢這座城市歷史上最嚴重的洪水,根據政府的統計數據,當時水位達到一百九十四公分。義大利於是投注數十億美元開發一套防洪閘門系統,該系統理應要保護威尼斯免於目前所經歷的洪災。那套系統稱為「摩西計畫」——這是「實驗性電機模組」的義大利文縮寫。 這套防洪系統是一系列的水中柵欄,設計要在高潮期間作為通往威尼斯潟湖三個入海口的一道防線。這套系統由一連串的鮮黃色閘門構成,架設在海床上的一條海溝中,從出海口的一端延伸到另一端。每道閘門都由強化鋼材製成,能夠抵擋拍打的海浪。 一旦預測到有高於一百一十公分的漲潮,壓縮空氣就會打入閘門裡,使閘門升至水面上方。等到高水位退去時,閘門就會沉到水面之下,回到原本的位置。 三個入海口共設有七十八道閘門。工程師目前正在研究如何讓這些閘門同時升起。首次測試預計在明年(編按:指二○二○年)進行。這項柵欄計畫在二○○三年就開始動工了,建造工程已經進行多年。一起難堪的貪污醜聞、成本追加以及相關的延宕帶來許多的阻礙。現在這套系統預定在二○二二年前啟用。 不過,隨著氣候危機持續造成海平面上升,這座城市遭遇的威脅預計會愈來愈嚴重。 本台記者湯姆.薩特的報導。

Methods of Mathematical Economics


Book Description

In 1924 the firm of Julius Springer published the first volume of Methods of Mathematical Physics by Richard Courant and David Hilbert. In the preface, Courant says this: Since the seventeenth century, physical intuition has served as a vital source for mathematical problems and methods. Recent trends and fashions have, however, weakened the connection between mathematics and physics; mathematicians, turning away from the roots of mathematics in intuition, have concentrated on refinement and emphasized the postulational side of mathematics, and at times have overlooked the unity of their science with physics and other fields. In many cases, physicists have ceased to appreciate the attitudes of mathematicians. This rift is unquestionably a serious threat to science as a whole; the broad stream of scientific development may split into smaller and smaller rivulets and dry out. It seems therefore important to direct our efforts toward reuniting divergent trends by clarifying the common features and interconnections of many distinct and diverse scientific facts. Only thus can the student attain some mastery of the material and the basis be prepared for further organic development of research. The present work is designed to serve this purpose for the field of mathe matical physics . . . . Completeness is not attempted, but it is hoped that access to a rich and important field will be facilitated by the book. When I was a student, the book of Courant and Hilbert was my bible.
