Hottest and Coldest Places on Earth

Temperature is rather something as we living beings on this earth commonly know or feel on this earth. as we feel it basically every day while we also encounter those cold frigid or blazing hot unforgiving days. Ther are also specific places around the earth that excel at the normal temperature we experience on a daily basis. Places that can be either a lot hotter or colder. The information that I personally gathered will be based on what I think and how I understand it.

COLD!!!.
The coldest place on earth is Antarctica which is fairly agreeable as the area looks like a frozen wasteland with ice. Antarctica is located in the South Pole and is surrounded by the Southern Ocean and the place is mostly covered with ice around 98% of it is pure ice. The temperature is mostly cold with some regions of Antarctica having a slight change of temperature as on the coast of Antarctica it is much warmer than inland with around -10 Celcius on a daily basis, Whilst a place like Vostok Station the coldness can skyrocket to a huge number like -70 Celcius. One specific fact said that the highest recorded temperature in Vostok Station was a whopping -89.6 Celcius and that the cold temperature in refrigerators is mostly around -15 Celcius. adding the chill and frigid wind factor it could even go colder. A person can only outstand the coldness of Antarctica for around three minutes maximum until you are either sick or receive cold-related health issues.


HOT!!!.
Dallol, in Ethiopia, is agreeably the hottest place on the earth as on a daily basis the maximum temperature is around 41 - 40 degrees. but Death Valley a place in California is arguably much more hotter. It was announced that the highest official temperature recorded was around 134°F (56.7°C). in Death Valley. Resources from the web show that the Valley looked mostly like a desert with occasional sandstorms rampaging about in the region. The weather is mostly sunny on most days. The average highest daily heat temperature is around 115 degrees Fahrenheit. It is said that a few people can somewhat inhabit the hottest place on earth but some die to heat-related diseases. 

Difference???.
The difference between them is quite obvious as each has a temperature that is basically the opposite. There are other factors that differentiate both of these coldest and hottest on earth. examples like the wind, texture of the land and its inhabitants. while the wind can basically boast the coldness in Antarctica. It is quite preferred in the Death Valley as the wind can somewhat help you withstand the scorching sun. Whilst the Death Valley has deserts sand on it the Antarctica vice versa has hardened ice on which you can walk on top of it. I preferably like cold places so I came to the conclusion that there are a bit more people who can somewhat inhabit the cold and harsh lands of Antarctica.

Maths

What does it mean to be a good mathematician?.

Googles/Wikipedia definition of mathematician
mathematician is someone who uses an extensive knowledge of mathematics in their work, typically to solve mathematical problems. Mathematics is concerned with numbers, data, quantity, structure, space, models, and change.

In my definition
In my point of view, a mathematician is someone who can do a lot of things that relate or includes maths. Also, I think mathematicians can figure out the problem outside the box.

ESOL = Corona Virus

The coronavirus is a respiratory virus that began in Wuhan, China last year. The virus has been said to affect people with a mild illness. like cold and other common illnesses. In recent news, there has been lots of discussion about this unknown virus. Interestingly some reports say that even doctors can not be able to clarify and justify what the virus is about. There are well-known public health officials working hard to identify the virus as this was different from the others that have occurred back then. The virus has gotten its first victim, not inside China but rather outside as it claimed the life of a 44-year-old man in the Philippines. There are also quarantine zones that have been established in Wuhan and other nearby cities to keep in check of the virus.

This virus can involve every single one of us. I especially think that this is mostly for the people in China and its communities as the virus is making it hard to live out their own daily life. With the side effects of the virus such as cold and other illnesses along with death reports in the news. It made me question if people are really safe from this virus.

This makes me think about China and its people as people have been harassing and discriminate them them due to this disaster and that they make fun of them. I really worry for the people who have been affected by this and also my homeland as news has been reported of the virus affecting the Philippines the place I grew up on.
