"A victory on the battlefield is of little account if it has not resulted either in breakthrough or encirclement. Though pushed back the enemy will appear again on different ground to renew the resistance he momentarily gave up. The campaign will go on."

"The modern commander-in-chief is no Napoleon who stands with his brilliant suite on a hill. Even with the best binoculars he would be unlikely to see much, and his white horse would be an easy target for innumerable batteries. The commander is farther to the rear in a house with roomy offices, where telegraph and wireless, telephone and signalling instruments are at hand, while a fleet of automobiles and motorcycles, ready for the longest trips, wait for orders. Here, in a comfortable chair before a large table, the modern Alexander overlooks the whole battlefield on a map.

"#1 - Architecture must either introduce new lines of research or develop existing lines in an innovative way. There are three types of architecture research: formal, conceptual, and techno-stylistic, and the research can be conducted simultaneously in one or more of these fields."

": Conceptual Research: the building takes on importance according on the process that generated it (e.g. aggregation of housing); the project is a result-manifesto of the research itself."

": Formal Research: research on the appearance of the building conducted through the study of the volume (e.g. introducing a new type) that arises from conceptual observations on the form."

": Techno-Stylistic Research: the material is simultaneously the outcome of a technological research (e.g. on cladding) and a defining element of the building."

"#2 - The form should not arise from geometric reasoning and architecture should not contain ornamental elements."

"#3 - The form should align with the style/trend of its time. In order to analyze a work from the past, you must place it temporally."

"s are an important feature of the landscape of many regions of the world. Despite their , and form the cornerstone of multimillion-dollar minerals industries. Scientific investigation of saline lacustrine environments in many parts of the world, extends back over 100 years, although segmented disciplinary research contributed to generally slow progress in our understanding of salt lakes throughout most of the 20th century. Only during the past several decades has effort been directed toward unravelling the complexities of various interactive physical, chemical, and biological processes in modern salt lake systems. Modern salt lakes exhibit tremendous diversity in terms of , morphology, chemistry, and sedimentary processes. While most of today’s salt lake basins are small and shallow, and many exhibit playa characteristics, noteworthy also are the giant saline lacustrine basins. Unlike the marine setting, , with virtually every water chemistry type represented, often within the same geographic region. Associated with this large range in brine chemistry is an equally diverse assemblage of endogenic and authigenic minerals found in salt lakes."

"The ’s magisterial salt lakes — found in Oregon, Nevada, Utah and — feel precarious and unlikely, and indeed may not exist for long. In “Salt Lakes,” the journalist and critic Caroline Tracey recalls being first struck by them in 2014: “The lakes’ beauty captivated me,” she writes, “and their strangeness piqued my curiosity”; their palettes “of glistening blue water, white salt crusts, green wetland edges and and emerald microbial life turned the horizon into a painting.”"

"You deceive your countrymen with words, in dissuading them from war, since under the name of peace you are bringing upon them slavery; for peace is procured by war, and they, accordingly, who would enjoy it long, ought to be trained to war.

"The in is an immense hyperarid intramontane basin with flat vast s and s on the . The central basin is about 2800–2900 elevation and enclosed by mountain ranges reaching > 5800 m in the and > 6200 m in the eastern . The extensive playas of the basin are covered by or with very subordinate additional solids. In this contribution we report on the chemical composition of salt lakes and inflows to the Qaidam basin (analysis of 30 water samples collected in the summer of 2008 and 2009) together with the composition of 22 salt samples. Salt lakes and small salt ponds formed at topographic depressions. Some of the lakes cover > 300 km2 surface but are very shallow (1–2 m deep). Most salt lakes and salt ponds are NaCl dominated and contain typically 250–300 g kg−1 total dissolved solids (TDS). Some lakes are industrially used and produce , , and or are strongly modified by deep water produced in oil fields. Lakes along the borders to the high mountains are typically not fully saturated with halite. However, also these lakes lost most and are drastically enriched in and some lakes also in B and Li. The chemical development of the most natural salt lakes follows a path producing Ca-deficient water that ultimately precipitate Mg-bearing carbonates and chlorites in addition to halite upon evaporation. The salt lakes form by continuous and drastic evaporation of the waters supplied by the inflows to the lakes in the basin. All inflows carry considerable amounts of Cl and are characterized by very high Cl/ ratios."

"I'll improve myself. I'll not allow myself to be bullied because I'm big. I'll come back. I'll do it for me. I'll not do it to prove to them na, 'Look at me.' Hindi. I'll do it for myself because it's unhealthy."
