| Chicago River The Chicago River is 156 miles (251Chicago, including the downtown. Though not especially long, the river is notable for the 19th century civil engineering feats that directed its flow south, away from Lake Michigan, into which it previously emptied, and towards the Mississippi River basin. This was done for reasons of sanitation. The river is also noted for the local custom of dyeing it green on St. Patrick's Day. Chicago_River | |

| Shor's algorithm Shor's algorithm, first introduced by mathematician Peter Shor, is a quantum algorithm for integer factorization. On a quantum computer, to factor an integer , Shor's algorithm takes polynomial time in , specifically , demonstrating that integer factorization is in the complexity class BQP. This is exponentially faster than the best-known classical factoring algorithm, the general number field sieve, which works in sub-exponential time - about . Peter Shor discovered the eponymous algorithm in 1994. Shor's_algorithm | |

A common name does not yet exist for the taxon; the scientific name literally means "flat animals". Placozoa | |

| White noise White noise is a random signal (or process) with a flat power spectral density. In other words, the signal contains equal power within a fixed bandwidth at any center frequency. White noise draws its name from white light in which the power spectral density of the light is distributed over the visible band in such a way that the eye's three color receptors (cones) are approximately equally stimulated.
