Middlesex County is a county located in north-central New Jersey, United States. In 2018, the Census Bureau estimated the county's population at 829,685, making it the state's second-most populous county, an increase of 4.1% from 809,858 in the 2010 census. Middlesex is part of the New York metropolitan area, its county seat is New Brunswick; the center of population of the state of New Jersey is located in Middlesex County, in East Brunswick Township, just east of the New Jersey Turnpike. The 2000 Census showed that the county ranked 63rd in the United States among the wealthiest counties by median household income; the Bureau of Economic Analysis ranked the county as having the 143rd-highest per capita income of all 3,113 counties in the United States as of 2009. Middlesex County holds The Greatest County in the Land; the county was settled due to its ideal location near the Raritan River and was established as of March 7, 1683, as part of the Province of East Jersey and was partitioned as of October 31, 1693, into the townships of Piscataway, Perth Amboy, Woodbridge.

Somerset County was established on May 1688, from portions of Middlesex County. The county's first court met in June 1683 in Piscataway, held session at alternating sites over the next century in Perth Amboy and Woodbridge before relocating permanently to New Brunswick in 1778. Middlesex County hosts an extensive park system totaling more than 6,300 acres. According to the 2010 Census, the county had a total area of 322.83 square miles, including 308.91 square miles of land and 13.91 square miles of water. The county is named after the historic English county of Middlesex. Bisected by the Raritan River, the county is topographically typical of Central Jersey in that it is flat; the elevation ranges from sea level to 300 feet above sea level on a hill scaled by Major Road/ Sand Hill Road near Route 1 in South Brunswick Township. Somerset County – northwest Union County – north Richmond County, New York – northeast Monmouth County – southeast Mercer County – southwest Middlesex County, is prominently known for its significant concentration of Asian Indians.

The growing Little India is a South Asian-focused commercial strip in Middlesex County, the U. S. county with the highest concentration of Asian Indians. The Oak Tree Road strip runs for about one-and-a-half miles through Edison and neighboring Iselin in Woodbridge Township, near the area's sprawling Chinatown and Koreatown, running along New Jersey Route 27, it is the largest and most diverse South Asian cultural hub in the United States. Monroe Township in Middlesex County has experienced a rapid growth rate in its Indian American population, with an estimated 5,943 as of 2017, 23 times the 256 counted as of the 2000 Census. Carteret's Punjabi Sikh community, variously estimated at upwards of 3,000, is the largest concentration of Sikhs in New Jersey. In Middlesex County, election ballots are printed in English, Gujarati and Punjabi; as of 2017 Census estimates, there were 201,243 people of Asian descent in Middlesex County accounting for 24% of the county's total population. At 61.57% of the population of Asian descent, Indian Americans accounted for 12.93% of the county's total population in 2010, increasing to 127,875 by 2017, more than that of the other Asian sub-groups combined.

The 1910 New York Highlanders season saw the team finishing with a total of 88 wins and 63 losses, coming in second in the American League. New York was managed by Hal Chase, their home games were played at Hilltop Park. The alternate and unofficial nickname, "Yankees", was being used more and more by the media. August 30, 1910: Tom Hughes threw nine no-hit innings against the Cleveland Naps, but the game was tied 0–0, so the game went to extra innings. Hughes gave up a hit with one out in the tenth wound up giving up five runs in the eleventh to lose the game, 5–0; the franchise would wait another seven years for their first official no-hitter. May 26, 1910: Red Kleinow was purchased from the Highlanders by the Boston Red Sox. August 5, 1910: Johnny Priest was purchased by the Highlanders from the Danville Red Sox.

Technetium is the first of the two elements lighter than bismuth that have no stable isotopes. It is artificial, with only trace quantities existing in nature produced by spontaneous fission or neutron capture by molybdenum; the first isotopes to be synthesized were 97Tc and 99Tc in 1936, the first artificial element to be produced. The most stable radioisotopes are 98Tc and 99Tc. Thirty-three other radioisotopes have been characterized with atomic masses ranging from 85Tc to 120Tc. Most of these have half-lives. Technetium has numerous meta states. 97mTc is the most stable, with a half-life of 91.0 days. This is followed by 95mTc, 99mTc. 99mTc only emits gamma rays, subsequently decaying to 99Tc. For isotopes lighter than the most stable isotope, 98Tc, the primary decay mode is electron capture to isotopes of molybdenum. For the heavier isotopes, the primary mode is beta emission to isotopes of ruthenium, with the exception that 100Tc can decay both by beta emission and electron capture. Technetium-99 is the most common and most available isotope, as it is a major fission product from fission of actinides like uranium and plutonium with a fission product yield of 6% or more, in fact the most significant long-lived fission product.

Lighter isotopes of technetium are never produced in fission because the initial fission products have a higher neutron/proton ratio than is stable for their mass range, therefore undergo beta decay until reaching the ultimate product. Beta decay of fission products of mass 95–98 stops at the stable isotopes of molybdenum of those masses and does not reach technetium. For mass 100 and greater, the technetium isotopes of those masses are short-lived and beta decay to isotopes of ruthenium. Therefore, the technetium in spent nuclear fuel is all 99Tc. One gram of 99Tc produces 6.2×108 disintegrations a second. Technetium has no stable or nearly stable isotopes, thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. Technetium and promethium are unusual light elements. Using the liquid drop model for atomic nuclei, one can derive a semiempirical formula for the binding energy of a nucleus; this formula predicts a "valley of beta stability" along. Nuclides that lie "up the walls" of the valley tend to decay by beta decay towards the center.

For a fixed number of nucleons A, the binding energies lie on one or more parabolas, with the most stable nuclide at the bottom. One can have more than one parabola because isotopes with an number of protons and an number of neutrons are more stable than isotopes with an odd number of neutrons and an odd number of protons. A single beta decay transforms one into the other; when there is only one parabola, there can be only one stable isotope lying on that parabola. When there are two parabolas, that is, when the number of nucleons is it can happen that there is a stable nucleus with an odd number of neutrons and an odd number of protons. However, if this happens, there can be no stable isotope with an number of neutrons and an number of protons. For technetium, the valley of beta stability is centered at around 98 nucleons. However, for every number of nucleons from 94 to 102, there is at least one stable nuclide of either molybdenum or ruthenium, the Mattauch isobar rule states that two adjacent isobars cannot both be stable.

For the isotopes with odd numbers of nucleons, this rules out a stable isotope of technetium, since there can be only one stable nuclide with a fixed odd number of nucleons. For the isotopes with an number of nucleons, since technetium has an odd number of protons, any isotope must have an odd number of neutrons. In such a case, the presence of a stable nuclide having the same number of nucleons and an number of protons rules out the possibility of a stable nucleus. Isotope masses from: Audi, Georges. P..

DEV Aratere is a roll-on roll-off rail and vehicle ferry in service for Interislander in New Zealand. Built in 1998 and lengthened in 2011, she operates four crossings from Wellington to Picton each day. In November 2013, she lost one of her propellers in Cook Strait. Diesel Electric Vessel Aratere was built for Tranz Rail, now KiwiRail, in 1998 to replace the ageing MV Aratika; the name "Aratere" is a Māori-language word meaning "Quick Path". In 2011, Aratere underwent a $52 million refit at the Sembawang shipyard in Singapore, increasing her capacity from 360 to 600 passengers; the refit stern. The ship was lengthened by cutting it in half to insert a new 30-metre midsection. Aratere has been involved in several technical problems and engine failures over her years in service. There is no official relationship between these incidents, though the media have stoked speculation that the ferry may be jinxed and she has earned the nickname "El Lemon". Notable incidents have included: 25 February 1999 - An engine failure.

18 December 2000 - An engine malfunction. 1 October 2004 - "30 seconds of potential disaster" after Aratere has a steering fault in the Marlborough Sounds. 10 February 2005 - Aratere was detained after a "crisis of confidence" with inspectors noting that she had arrived from Spain six years earlier in a shocking state. They could no longer allow her to operate as she was She was allowed to sail again on 15 March. After the extensive refit carried out in Singapore in 2011, she has once again experienced numerous incidents, including engine failures. On 2 November 2011 Maritime NZ ordered the ship to stop operating until proven safe. On 5 November 2013 Aratere snapped a drive shaft losing a propeller in Cook Strait; this forced the ship out of service, causing disruption to Interislander schedules. Subsequently, the ship was allowed to make freight only crossings with only one propeller for propulsion. Aratere has both vehicle decks; these can be loaded through the stern via a double linkspan. A lower hold has additional space for cars, though access to this hold was blocked off after the refit in Singapore.

Aratere has six decks. Deck 1 - Engine and propulsion rooms Deck 2 - Rail deck Deck 3 - Road vehicle deck Deck 4 - Bar, Shop, Deck Access Deck 5 - Premium Lounge, Drivers Accommodation, Deck Access including outdoor seating. Deck 6 - Bridge and sun deck Aratere operates six crossings of the Cook Strait each day. In late 2009, Aratere celebrated her 20,000th crossing, having travelled around 2 million kilometres.
