The Sun is rotating with a mean period of 27 days; the rotation is not rigid, the surface value of the angular velocity being about 10 percent larger at the equator than at the pole. The variation of Q inside the convection zone, in particular the radial dependence, has recently been determined from helioseismology. Contrary to the original theoretical picture, Q-contour surfaces are not cylindrical but more disc-like. (h) The rotation of the Sun is relatively slow and its magnetic field weak. Observations of the magnetic intensity and its time variation in other more rapidly rotating stars shows a close relation between the rotation rate and the mean magnetic field, (B) oc Q, which corroborates the dynamo interpretation. The time variation of the field essentially rules out a primordial origin (though the decay time of such a field in the non-turbulent solar interior would be of the same order as the age of the solar system and it is legitimate to ask what happened to the primordial field the Sun should have captured during its formation). The most plausible cause of the observed field is a dynamo process due to turbulent fluid motions in the convection zone.From the characteristics of sunspots and the poloidal field this should be an aQ-dynamo: differential rotation transforms a poloidal into a toroidal field (fig. 5.5), of which the sunspot field is the direct manifestation, while the helicity of the convective turbulence regenerates the poloidal field. A theory of the solar dynamo should account for the solar cycle time (at least give the correct order of magnitude), the equatorward sunspot drift and the phase relation between B^ and Br. Because of the extremely high Rayleigh number (for a definition of the Rayleigh number and other quantities see section 5.3.1), direct numerical simulations of the entire convection zone are out of the question and one has to resort to a mean-field approach characterized primarily by the dynamo coefficients a, rjr (for recent reviews of mean-field solar dynamo theory see Radler, 1990; Stix, 1991; Gilman, 1992; Brandenburg, 1994). Typical values of the velocity fluctuation amplitude and the correlation length in the photosphere are v ~ 1 km/s and / ~ 103 km. In the convection zone / increases with depth, while v decreases such that vl is roughly constant, hence by (5.25) riT~\vl~'Sx 102 km2/s. (5.44) By its very nature a is a more complicated effect, which is usually estimated by oc ~ ea£ll, (5.24). KYRYOS SEÑOR LORD KYRIE ELEISON LORD HAVE MERCY SENHOR TENDE MISERICÓRDIA ....A GLÓRIA DE ATON CAIA SOBRE NÓS ....ACHO QUE AMON-RA NUM VAI DEIXAR ATON Woody Allen — 'In my next life I want to live my life backwards. You start out dead and get that out of the way. Then you wake up in an old people's home...It reminds me of that old joke- you know, a guy walks into a psychiatrist's office and says, hey doc, my brother's crazy! He thinks he's a chicken. Then the doc says, why don't you turn him in? Then the guy says, I would but I need the eggs. I guess that's how I feel about relationships. They're totally crazy, irrational, and absurd, but we keep going through it because we need the eggs.The difference between sex and love is that sex relieves tension and love causes it.” ― Woody Allen tags: sex 1877 likes like “To you, I'm an atheist. To God, I'm the loyal opposition.”To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer; not to love is to suffer; to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be happy one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness.”

DON'T DRINK THE WATER 

American tourist family mistaken for spies takes refuge in local American embassy, which is temporarily under the direction of the ambassador's inept son. Mayhem ensues. Woody Allen before the angst. 

I don't know the question, but sex is definitely the answer.”

“In my next life I want to live my life backwards. You start out dead and get that out of the way. Then you wake up in an old people's home feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, and then when you start work, you get a gold watch and a party on your first day. You work for 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You party, drink alcohol, and are generally promiscuous, then you are ready for high school. You then go to primary school, you become a kid, you play. You have no responsibilities, you become a baby until you are born. And then you spend your last 9 months floating in luxurious spa-like conditions with central heating and room service on tap, larger quarters every day and then Voila! You finish off as an orgasm!”

“Life doesn't imitate art, it imitates bad television.”

I feel that life is divided into the horrible and the miserable. That's the two categories. The horrible are like, I don't know, terminal cases, you know, and blind people, crippled. I don't know how they get through life. It's amazing to me. And the miserable is everyone else. So you should be thankful that you're miserable, because that's very lucky, to be miserable.” Is sex dirty? Only when it's being done right.”

“God is silent. Now if only man would shut up.”

“If you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans.”

“My one regret in life is that I am not someone else.”

“Men learn to love the woman they are attracted to. Women learn to become attracted to the man they fall in love with.”

“Love is the answer, but while you are waiting for the answer, sex raises some pretty good questions.”
