โœฆ Synopsis

Prelude -- Puzzles -- Inside job -- Humans 101 -- Unplugged -- Don't let them get you to hate them -- Writing -- Bitter truth -- In the garden -- Hands of time -- Jah -- Food -- Famblies -- Coda: Hope.;"I am stockpiling antibiotics for the Apocalypse, even as I await the blossoming of paperwhites on the windowsill in the kitchen," Anne Lamott admits. Despair and uncertainty surround us: in the news, in our families, and in ourselves. But even when life is at its bleakest -- when we are, as she puts it, "doomed, stunned, exhausted, and over-caffeinated"--The seeds of rejuvenation are at hand. "All truth is paradox," Lamott writes, "and this turns out to be a reason for hope. If you arrive at a place in life that is miserable, it will change." That is the time when we must pledge not to give up but "to do what Wendell Berry wrote: 'Be joyful, though you have considered all the facts.'" Lamott calls for each of us to rediscover the nuggets of hope and wisdom that are buried within us that can make life sweeter than we ever imagined.

It can easily be seen that a conjecture of RUNGE does not hold for a class of graphs whose members will be called "almost regular". This conjecture is replaced by a weaker one, and a classification of almost regular graphs is given.
