TIDYING SPECIAL EVENT
Tidying is a special event. Don’t do it every day. This usually
elicits a moment of stunned silence. Of course, there are countless perspectives on tidying, and even
though I have undertaken an exhaustive study of the subject, I don’t claim to know every method that
exists. Therefore, what I say here applies only to my own method. Still, let me repeat: tidying should
be done just once. Or, to put it more accurately, the work of tidying should be completed once and for
all within a single period of time.
If you think tidying is an endless chore that must be done every day, you are gravely mistaken.
There are two types of tidying—“daily tidying” and “special event tidying.” Daily tidying, which
consists of using something and putting it back in its place, will always be part of our lives as long as
we need to use clothes, books, writing materials, and so on. But the purpose of this book is to inspire
you to tackle the “special event” of putting your house in order as soon as possible.

A new study suggests that music -- and specifically infant-directed song -- evolved as a way for parents to signal to children that their needs are being met, while still freeing up parents to perform other tasks, like foraging for food, or caring for other offspring.

In the Netherlands, the standard protocol for physician-assisted suicide is intravenously induced thiopental anesthesia, followed by bromide of alcuronium- or pancuronium-induced respiratory arrest. A concentrated oral solution of 100 ml containing 9 grams of pentobarbital sodium along with sugar syrup in a 20% ethanol solution is a standard solution used for self-administration by patient.

NAS NEXT ACTION SELECTION
Action selection is a way of characterizing the most basic problem of intelligent systems: what to do next. In artificial intelligence and computational cognitive science, "the action selection problem" is typically associated with intelligent agents and animats—artificial systems that exhibit complex behaviour in an agent environment. The term is also sometimes used in ethology or animal behavior.
