When Tucker Carlson went to the Kremlin he had a function well known to history. He was to be the stooge of the tyrant, the dictaphone to the dictator and a traitor to journalism.

The Cowboys want to extend CeeDee Lamb, here's how much it's projected to cost
It makes sense that the Dallas Cowboys would want to extend former first-round pick CeeDee Lamb. He's been one of the most productive receivers in the NFL since entering the league in 2020 - and he's still ascending. In 2023, he led the NFL in targets and receptions, finished second in receiving yards and third in touchdowns. At the same time, the receiver market continues to explode. 15 receivers now make over $20 million per year. Before 2022 that number stood at just three. The sooner the Co…

General position sets, colinear sets, and Sierpiński product graphs
Let $G \otimes _f H$ denote the Sierpiński product of $G$ and $H$ with respect to the function $f$. The Sierpiński general position number ${\rm gp}{_{\rm S}}(G,H)$ is introduced as the cardinality of a largest general position set in $G \otimes _f H$ over all possible functions $f$. Similarly, the lower Sierpiński general position number $\underline{\rm gp}{_{\rm S}}(G,H)$ is the corresponding smallest cardinality. The concept of vertex-colinear sets is introduced. Bounds for the general po…

Syndicate: Synergistic Synthesis of Ranking Function and Invariants for Termination Analysis
Several techniques have been developed to prove the termination of programs. Finding ranking functions is one of the common approaches to do so. A ranking function must be bounded and must reduce at every iteration for all the reachable program states. Since the set of reachable states is often unknown, invariants serve as an over-approximation. Further, in the case of nested loops, the initial set of program states for the nested loop can be determined by the invariant of the outer loop. So, i…

On the series expansion of the secondary zeta function
In article, we explore the secondary zeta function $Z(s)$, which is defined as a generalized zeta type of series over imaginary parts of non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function $ζ(s)$. This function has been analytically continued as a meromorphic function in $\mathbb{C}$ with one double pole and an infinity of simple poles. The secondary zeta function is of interest because it can naturally represent an analytical formula for non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function that we will …

Fantasy futures: Where to draft your favorite Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys scored more points than any NFL team last year, so why not get “America’s Team” onto your fantasy team? Here’s where you’ll find them based on the earliest mock drafts. QB Dak Prescott Prescott’s 4,516 yards were third most in the NFL, but his 36 touchdowns led the league in 2023. As a result, he finished sixth overall in fantasy scoring, third among quarterbacks. Of course, throwing to CeeDee Lamb, last year’s second-leading receiver, doesn’t hurt either. In …

Ramanujan's continued fractions of order $10$ as modular functions
We explore the modularity of the continued fractions $I(τ), J(τ), T_1(τ), T_2(τ)$ and $U(τ)=I(τ)/J(τ)$ of order $10$, where $I(τ)$ and $J(τ)$ are introduced by Rajkhowa and Saikia, which are special cases of certain identities of Ramanujan. In particular, we show that these fractions can be expressed in terms of an $η$-quotient $g(τ)$ that generates the field of all modular functions on the congruence subgroup $Γ_0(10)$. Consequently, we prove that modular equations for $g(τ)$ and …
