Monique Wittig asserts that lesbians are not women. The argument has not only excited academic and non-academic interest, but perhaps most importantly, it defies dominant cultural definitions and categorizations of sexuality and gender.

Perhaps the most demanding task for any chief information officer (CIO) of a company is gaining the support of their colleagues for new projects within their firms—in the face of competing values.

speed = 30m/2s = 30/2 m/s = 15m/s.
36. Hamster’s Acceleration
0 m/s 0 seconds
5 m/s 1 second
10 m/s 2 seconds
