In the book of Deuteronomy, also known as the "second law," we find adventures that take us back to the beginning of time. As we delve into the pages of this ancient text, we uncover a repeated law that echoes throughout the ages, reminding us of the wondrous days of creation.
Imagine embarking on a thrilling journey to witness our vast universe coming into existence. Picture the expanse of darkness, waiting to be transformed by the Creator's divine touch. With each passing day, you witness the unfolding adventure of creation, as God molds the world into a beautiful masterpiece.
On the first day, light pierces the void, banishing darkness and illuminating the realm. As you marvel at the brilliance of this act, you can't help but feel a sense of wonder and awe. This is just the beginning of an extraordinary tale.
Day two brings forth heavenly waters and an atmosphere, separating the sky from the land below. You observe the majestic clouds forming, dancing across the vibrant blue canvas above. The atmosphere now protects and nurtures the world that is yet to fully take shape.
Next, on the third day, the earth springs to life as the waters gather together, forming vast seas and mighty oceans. Mountains rise towards the heavens, and lush vegetation blankets the land. The sight of flowers blooming and trees stretching their branches upward is a sight that fills you with joy and excitement.
The fourth day brings celestial bodies into the picture. Stars twinkle in the sky, constellations taking shape with breathtaking beauty. The sun takes its place as the ruler of the day, radiating warmth and life, while the moon claims dominion over the night, casting a gentle glow upon the world.
On the fifth day, the waters teem with life as creatures fill every nook and cranny. Majestic whales glide through the depths, while birds soar through the air with graceful ease. The sight of life thriving in its various forms fills you with a sense of purpose and connection to all of creation.
Finally, on the sixth day, the land becomes a vibrant tapestry of diverse and magnificent creatures. Wild beasts roam freely, and domesticated animals join humans as companions and helpers. In the climax of this incredible adventure, you witness the pinnacle of creation: the birth of humankind.
These wondrous days of creation speak volumes about the Creator's boundless imagination and creative power. The repeated law we find in Deuteronomy reminds us of the importance of cherishing the world we inhabit. It urges us to be good stewards of this precious gift, ensuring that the adventure of creation continues to unfold in all its glory for generations to come.
So, let us embark on this adventurous journey through the days of creation, where we can learn from the ancient wisdom found in the second law. May it inspire us to appreciate the wonders of our world and instill a sense of responsibility to protect and nurture it for future adventures yet to come.

Entropy and junkies
I am on a deep vacation [see ‘Digital detox with a deep vacation‘ on August 10th, 2016] and so my posts for the next few weeks will be ‘reprints’ from my archive of more than 570 posts. The one below first appeared in January 2013 under the title ‘Unavoidable junk‘.
The laws of thermodynamics are physical laws whose relevance extend beyond the study of engines and heat plants. We can restate the…

College Physics by Openstax Chapter 4 Problem 2
College Physics by Openstax Chapter 4 Problem 2
If the sprinter from the previous problem accelerates at that rate for 20 m, and then maintains that velocity for the remainder of the 100-m dash, what will be his time for the race?
If the sprinter from the previous problem accelerates at that rate for 20 m, and then maintains that velocity for the remainder of the 100-m dash, what will be his time for the race?
Solution:
Solving for the time it takes to reach the first 20 meters.
\begin{align*}
\Delta x & =v_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}at^{2} \\
20 \ \text{m} & = \left( 0 \ \text{m/s} \right)t + \frac{1}{2}\left( 4.20 \…

False Identity
Danny knew that if he wanted to escape Amity and all the chaos that was his life he needed to get a fake identity, move and go as far away as possible. He could probably ask Tucker or Technus, but he felt it was something he had to do on his own.
He made arrangements, destroyed the portal, said goodbye and ended up moving to Gotham. However his hacking job wasn't so good and he was discovered in an instant by the bats.
They decided to investigate him instead of confronting him directly, following Jim's advice that not everyone was running because of something malicious, Danny didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
He seemed to be adjusting to Gotham which was weird on it's own but the strangest thing he did was get a job in Penguin's Iceberg Lounge but that was more because of his job search than anything else.
His past records also showed nothing more than a child with poor grades and troubling injuries, probably caused by neglectful parents.
Damian began to fear the worst and hid the adoption papers.

How long was it between when Iroh convinced Zuko to take up the Fire Throne, and Sozin's comet? A day? Less??
AU where Iroh convinces Zuko to be the next Fire Lord MUCH earlier in the series. Zuko, who hasn't been in formal education since was 13yo, understandably panics. He barely remembers his lessons on How To Be the Fire Lord, and they were all focused on how to rule during wartime. Not peace. What does an international peace treaty even LOOK like and how does one go about making it???? How does trade work when you're NOT trying to eradicate every other nation????
Book 3 Zuko spends all of his time teaching Aang firebending, interrogating the other members about their culture's traditions and politics, going on Blue Spirit journeys to raid any passing libraries, and reading everything he can get his hands on. He barely eats. He doesn't sleep. He's info dumping about the DRIEST political texts. The gaang are THIS close to holding an intervention or having Toph sit on him until he sleeps.

Delaying cataclysmic events might hasten their advent
Delaying cataclysmic events might hasten their advent
In thermodynamics, students are taught to draw a boundary around the system they want to analyse and to decide whether the boundary is open or closed to transfers of mass and energy based on the scenario they want to model. The next step is to balance the energy flows across the boundary with the change in the energy content of the system. This is an application of the first law of…
