Cersei dreams that she rules from the Iron Throne and courtiers are paying her tribute. But the pleasant dream turns into a nightmare when Tyrion appears and ridicules her, making the great lords, proud ladies and young knights snigger at her as well. She notices she is naked and tries to cover up. Hasty moves make her wound herself on the spikes and blades of the Iron Throne and soon she is engulfed in a mortal combat with the throne that is trying to rip the flesh off her.
She is woken up by her frightened maid Senelle, accompanied by armed men who have arrived to deliver the news of Lord Tywin's murder. Cersei is still drowsy and believes this to be part of her nightmare. For a moment, she mistakes the Kingsguard knight who has been sent by the Lord Commander for Jaime himself and expects Tyrion to crawl from under her bed to laugh at her, although she knows that he is safely in his black cell and his execution will take place the same day. She drank too much wine last night, she thinks. She now recognizes Jocelyn Swyft, Ser Osmund Kettleblack and Ser Boros Blount and notices Lannister guards, while she is being handed lemon water to waken her up.
She wonders whether the news can be true, insisting that her father is surrounded by guards day and night. Ser Osmund tells her the guards were on their post, but a secret passage has been found behind a hearth in the Hand's Tower and Jaime has gone in to inspect it. Cersei is worried about Jaime's safety as well as of Tommen's, but she is told that guards supervised by Ser Loras Tyrell have been assigned to watch over the King. This stirs up her resentment against the Tyrells and she wonders whether the murder was their doing, yet does not dare to speak this aloud. She commands Ser Osmund to escort her to the Tower of the Hand and Ser Boros to make certain that Tyrion is still in his cell. She doesn't believe Tyrion would dare to raise a hand against their father, but needs to be certain.
Outside, the sun is beginning to rise while the stars can still be seen, making Cersei think that the great star of the west has fallen. Ser Osmund tells her that Lum, one of the guards, found the body in the privy. She already feels the hole left by Lord Tywin and decides to act swiftly as she suspects there will be attempts to push her aside, as always. She wonders whether Stannis Baratheon is behind the murder. She enters the tower, thinking that not crying makes her the only true son her father ever had. Climbing the many stairs to the Hand's chambers prompts her to think about tearing the tower down.
As she enters the hall, she finds the room full of guards and servants, whispering among themselves. Cersei resents their presence as well as the fact that she was not called first. She orders Ser Meryn Trant to show the people out and is informed that her father's body has been brought to his bed. When she enters the bedchamber, guards are present again as well as her distraught uncle Kevan, kneeling by the bed and trying to pray for his brother.
She notices how small the door to the secret passage behind the hearth is, making her think of Tyrion again, then settling for Stannis or the Tyrells as more likely suspects. She knows about the rumors of secret passages in the Red Keep and that Maegor the Cruel supposedly killed the builders of the castle to keep them secret. She thinks of other, yet undiscovered, secret passages to other bedchambers and has a vision of Tyrion using one to get to Tommen.
Cersei has a look at her father's half-naked body. While reflecting on how he looks much older and smaller than when he was alive, she already notices a smell emanating from the corpse. She is furious that the quarrel that killed Lord Tywin has been left in his stomach and orders it to be removed. Cersei wonders whether she should act desperate and claw her own face, as she heard Catelyn Stark did when her son Robb was killed before her eyes, and wonders how Lord Tywin once received news of his own father's death.
She commands that the bells must toll for her father just as they did for King Robert. She asks for Pycelle and wants him to prepare the body, but is told that the Grand Maester has already been there and left again. This angers her more because of Pycelle's uselessness in old age and she calls for Maesters Ballabar and Frenken instead. Cersei asks about Jaime and is again told he's down in the secret passage, inspecting the depth of a shaft found there. She is worried about his safety, thinking of his lost hand and how the murderer might await him in the dark.
Qyburn is shown in, offering his service as maester. He informs her that he treated Jaime's hand and she remembers that he came down from Harrenhal with her brother. She notices that he doesn't have a maester's chain, receiving the answer that it has been taken away by the Citadel while his knowledge is still there. She orders him to remove the quarrel and prepare her father's body for the silent sisters.
Qyburn asks her what he should do with the girl. Cersei has not noticed the second body in the bed before and takes a look at her naked body, observing the golden chain around her neck and that her face is as black as Joffrey's was when he died. She is furious and demands to know what the girl is doing there, receiving the unsatisfying answer that she has been found where she is and that she was Tyrion's whore.
She thinks that Lord Tywin never used whores and defensively tells a guard how he treated his own father's mistress after his death, parading her naked through the streets of Lannisport. Qyburn suggests that Lord Tywin might have been questioning the girl about her mistress Sansa Stark's disappearance. Cersei eagerly seizes on this notion but has a vision of Tyrion mocking it. She can't stand staying in the room with the girl any longer and goes back to the hall.
She finds Ser Osmund accompanied by his brothers Osney and Osfryd and orders them to make certain that nobody will ever hear about the dead girl in her father's bed. Her body is to be disposed of no matter how and everyone who talks about this matter will have their tongues torn out.
She watches as the Kettleblacks put the girl's body in a blanket, remembering that the girl's name was Shae and that she came to her the night before Tyrion's trial by combat, asking that promises made to her by Tyrion and, allegedly, Cersei be kept, including a manse in the city and a knight to marry. Cersei made it clear that she would get nothing until she told them the whereabouts of Sansa Stark, making her leave in tears. She orders the Kettleblacks to carry Shae's body out through the secret passage, but wants to have the chain around her neck delivered to herself.
As Ser Osfryd is about to step into the tunnel, Jaime emerges from it. She rushes towards him, asking whether he has found the killers, but is told that the shaft ends in a chamber where half a dozen tunnels meet, some of them closed with locked iron gates, and Jaime needs to find keys first. He suggests that the killers could still be hiding in the maze he just left.
Cersei again envisions Tyrion climbing through the walls like some monstrous rat, then reassures herself with the thought that he is in his cell. She says she wants the murderers to be found and that the whole tower will be demolished if need be. Jaime hugs her to console her and she has a rush of desire for him.
She whispers in his ear, asking him to take over as Hand of the King to complete their father's work. But he pushes her away, declines the offer, makes a joke about a Hand without a hand and says that she shouldn't ask him to rule.
Cersei feels the rejection like a slap, realizing that it has been noticed by everyone present and that the whole castle will know soon. She angrily says that she didn't ask him to rule, as she is going to do that herself as the Queen Regent until Tommen comes of age. Jaime replies that he doesn't know whom to feel worse for, Tommen or the Seven Kingdoms. She slaps him. They are both admonished by Ser Kevan to take their indecent behavior out of the room where their father's body lies. Jaime apologizes for his sister, pointing out that she is forgetting herself while grief-stricken.
This makes Cersei want to slap him again and regret her impulse to ask him. She wonders whether the position of Hand should be abolished altogether, remembering how Jon Arryn and Eddard Stark meddled in her affairs, the latter forcing her to get rid of King Robert before she could deal with his brothers, and how Tyrion sold Myrcella to Dorne, made Tommen a hostage and killed Joffrey.
Cersei settles on her uncle Kevan as the next Hand, as she considers him loyal and prudent while unambitious to challenge her as the real power behind the Iron Throne. She thinks that she needs men supporting her and that the current small council will not do, with Grand Maester Pycelle too old and Lord Mace Tyrell and his bannermen Lord Paxter Redwyne and Lord Mathis Rowan not to be trusted; she also can't rely on Jaime, who has lost his courage with his hand.
She again considers the possibility of the Tyrells being involved in the murder, as Lord Mace must have known he can never rule the Seven Kingdoms as long as Tywin Lannister is alive. However, she realizes she has to proceed carefully against the Tyrells, with the city full of their men and Loras Tyrell now knight of the Kingsguard. The thought of the engagement of Tommen and Margaery Tyrell still makes her furious and she questions Margaery's virginity. Cersei intends to use Varys to find out more on this front.
The thought of Varys makes Cersei aware that the eunuch isn't present, while he is usually around when something important happens in the Red Keep. The only explanation for his absence is that he was involved in the plot, preempting his own downfall as Lord Tywin never had any love for him. She thinks that Varys might have known about the secret passage and acted on behalf of Stannis. She orders Ser Meryn to find the Master of Whisperers and bring him to her.
Ser Boros returns red-faced and puffing, announcing that Tyrion is gone, his cell open, with no sign of him anywhere. Cersei is appalled, thinking her nightmares are coming true. She points out her orders to keep the Imp under guard day and night. Ser Boros says that a goaler called Rugen has gone missing while two others were found asleep. She orders for them to be killed.
Cersei's paranoia about Tyrion breaks out fully and reflects that he has already killed her mother, her father and her eldest son and will try to murder her too, remembering the prophecy she once received about her little brother killing her. She gets queasy and Ser Boros tries to sustain her, but she recoils from his touch, thinking that the knight of the Kingsguard might be one of Tyrion's creatures, too.
He offers her a cup of water, but all she wants is Tyrion's blood. She envisions Tyrion grinning at her, feeling his hands closing in around her neck the very moment she thought she was rid of him.

Dune, escrito por Frank Herbert, es una de las novelas de ciencia ficcion mas influyentes. La historia sigue a Paul Atreides, un joven heredero que junto a su familia se traslada al planeta desertico Arrakis, tambien conocido como Dune.
Este planeta es el unico lugar en el universo donde se encuentra la especia melange, una sustancia que otorga habilidades mentales y prolonga la vida, y que es esencial para los viajes espaciales.
La familia Atreides asume el control de Arrakis, enfrentandose a la familia Harkonnen, quienes controlaban el planeta previamente y desean recuperar el poder.
Cuando los Harkonnen traicionan a los Atreides, Paul y su madre Jessica escapan al desierto, donde se encuentran con los Fremen, una sociedad adaptada a la vida extrema del planeta y con profundas creencias espirituales.
A medida que Paul se adapta y gana el respeto de los Fremen, descubre que podria ser el Kwisatz Haderach, un ser con habilidades mentales profeticas que ha sido profetizado. Paul lidera una rebelion con los Fremen para liberar Arrakis de los Harkonnen y desafiar al emperador.
Dune aborda temas de ecologia, religion, politica y destino, mostrando como el poder y el medio ambiente pueden transformar a las personas y a las sociedades. Es el inicio de una saga que explora el viaje de Paul y el futuro de Arrakis y su gente.
One evening Louis summoned the astrologer to his room, high in the castle. Before the man arrived, the king told his servants that when he gave the signal they were to pick them astrologer up, carry him to the window, and hurl him to the ground, hundreds of feet below.
Louis XI (1423-1483), the great Spider King of France, had a weakness for astrology. He kept a court astrologer whom he admired, until one day the man predicted that a lady of the court would die within eight days. When the prophecy came true, Louis was terrified, thinking that either the man had murdered the woman to prove his accuracy or that he was so versed in his science that his powers threatened Louis himself. In either case he had to be killed.
Do not be one of the many who mistakenly believe that the ultimate form of power is independence. Power involves a relationship between people; you will always need other as allies, pawns, or even as weak masters who serve as your front. The completely independent man would live in a cabin in the woods he would have the freedom to come and go as he pleased, but he would have no power. The best you can hope for is that others will grow so dependent on you that you enjoy a kind of reverse independence: Their need for you frees you.

The reading and the lecture delve into the topic of who discovered the American continent, offering contrasting perspectives. The author puts forth the idea that the Vikings found America 500 years before Columbus. In contrast, the lecturer casts doubt on this statement and challenges each of the writer's points.
To begin with, the author asserts that there are sagas that tell the story of a fertile land called Vinland and sailors traveling to this place. The lecturer, however, presents a counterargument, asserting that this claim is fundamentally flawed. He explains that the place known as Vinland in the tales may not be Newfoundland, since there are other places west of Greenland that match that description.
Furthermore, the article posits that there is archaeological evidence of houses with similar structures to those used by the Norse in Canada, affirming that to be proof of previous Viking settlements. Nevertheless, the lecturer disputes this notion, emphasizing that there is no concrete proof that those were Norwegian colonies since just a few houses are not sufficient evidence of Viking habitation in North America. He further points out that Norwegian archaeologists may have been biased in their claims and that a feeling of patriotism could have influenced their research.
Lastly, the writer concludes by arguing that the runestones found in 1898 are vital proof of Viking living in America, as the runic alphabet was used in Scandinavia before adopting the Latin alphabet. The lecturer, once again, refutes this claim, declaring that a Swedish farmer may have carved the runes before they were found. This undermines the credibility of the final argument, leaving the author's stance significantly weakened.

Internal Energy (U)
Internal energy is the total energy contained within a system. It is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of its particles. Importantly, we cannot measure the absolute value of internal energy; only changes in internal energy can be measured.
State Function:
A state function depends only on the current state of the system, not the path taken to reach that state. Internal energy is a state function because its value at a particular state is independent of its history.
Work (W) and Heat (Q)
Work and heat are the two primary means by which energy is transferred between a system and its surroundings. Work is energy transferred when a force is applied over a distance. Heat is energy transferred due to a temperature difference between a system and its surroundings.
First Law of Thermodynamics:
The first law, also known as the law of energy conservation, states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form to another. In terms of internal energy, heat, and work, it’s expressed as:
delta U = q – w
Where: ΔU is the change in internal energy.
q is the heat added to the system.
w is the work done by the system on its surroundings.
Isothermal Reversible Process
An isothermal process occurs at a constant temperature. When it’s reversible, the system remains in equilibrium with its surroundings throughout the process.
For an ideal gas undergoing an isothermal reversible expansion or compression:
W reversible = -nRT ln (vf/vi)
Isothermal Reversible
Where: n is the number of moles of gas.
R is the universal gas constant.
T is the constant temperature.
V f and V i are the final and initial volumes, respectively.

Isothermal Irreversible Process
In an isothermal irreversible process, the system doesn’t necessarily remain in equilibrium with its surroundings. For an ideal gas undergoing an isothermal irreversible expansion against a constant external pressure
Isothermal Irreversible
Free Expansion
Free expansion refers to the expansion of a gas into a vacuum, meaning there’s no external pressure opposing the expansion. As a result, no work is done by or on the gas.
W = 0
Also Check – Charle’s Law Formula
Adiabatic Process
An adiabatic process occurs without the transfer of heat. For an ideal gas undergoing an adiabatic expansion or compression, the work is described by:
W adiabiatic = nR(Tf-Ti)/1-γ
Adiabatic
Where: γ is the heat capacity ratio (Cp/Cv).
T f and T i are the final and initial temperatures, respectively.
Enthalpy (H)
Enthalpy is a thermodynamic quantity defined as:
H = U + PV
Where: U is the internal energy of the system.
P is the pressure of the system.
V is the volume of the system.
For a process at constant pressure, the change in enthalpy (ΔH) is related to the heat (Q) transferred as:
ΔH = QP
Where Q P is the heat transferred at constant pressure.
Also Check – Surface Chemistry Formula
Heat Capacity (C)
Heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat (Q) required to raise its temperature by one degree Celsius (or Kelvin).
Mathematically:
C = Q/∆T
Where ΔT is the change in temperature.
Heat Capacity at Constant Pressure (CP) and at Constant Volume (CV): C P is the heat capacity measured at constant pressure. C V is the heat capacity measured at constant volume.
Relation with Ideal Gas Constant:
For an ideal gas, the molar heat capacities at constant pressure (C P ) and constant volume (C V ) are related to the ideal gas constant
CP – CV = R
Furthermore, the heat capacity ratio γ (often used in adiabatic processes for ideal gases) is defined as:
γ=cp/cv
heat capacity ratio γ

Entropy (S)
Entropy (S) is a measure of the disorder or randomness of a system. It provides insight into the energy of a system that is not available to do work. The concept of entropy is deeply rooted in the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Change in Entropy (ΔS) for Heat Transfer: For a reversible process in which heat is transferred:
delta =q rev /T
Entropy
Where: q rev is the heat transferred during the reversible process. T is the absolute temperature at which the process occurs.
Entropy and Phase Changes: For a phase transition (e.g., melting or vaporization) at constant temperature:
delta = delta H transition / T transition
Entropy and Phase Changes
Where: ΔHtransition is the enthalpy change of the phase transition. Phase transition is the temperature at which the phase transition occurs.
Spontaneity: The spontaneity of a process is determined by the Gibbs free energy
ΔG = ΔH − TΔS
Where: ΔG is the change in Gibbs free energy.
ΔH is the change in enthalpy.
ΔS is the change in entropy.
T is the absolute temperature.
The sign of ΔG dictates spontaneity: If ΔG<0, the process is spontaneous. If ΔG>0, the process is non-spontaneous. If ΔG=0, the system is in equilibrium.
Gibbs Free Energy (G)
Gibbs free energy is a thermodynamic potential that measures the maximum reversible work that can be performed by a system at constant temperature and pressure. It provides a criterion for the spontaneity of a process when both temperature and pressure are held constant. Formula for
Temperature Dependence: The sign of ΔH and ΔS can give insights into the temperature dependence of spontaneity:
If ΔH<0 (exothermic) and ΔS>0 (entropy increases), the process is spontaneous at all temperatures. If ΔH>0 (endothermic) and ΔS<0 (entropy decreases), the process is non-spontaneous at all temperatures. If ΔH<0 and ΔS<0, the process is spontaneous at low temperatures. If ΔH>0 and ΔS>0, the process is spontaneous at high temperatures. The exact temperature at which the spontaneity changes can be found using the equation ΔG=0, which gives
