Peppermint, scientifically known as Mentha × piperita, is a hybrid mint, a cross between watermint (Mentha aquatica) and spearmint (Mentha spicata). It belongs to the Lamiaceae family, which also includes other aromatic herbs like basil, rosemary, and lavender. Here are some key scientific points about peppermint:
Botanical Classification: Lamiaceae
Characteristics: Peppermint is a herbaceous perennial plant known for its distinctive minty aroma and flavor. It has square-shaped stems, serrated leaves, and produces small purple or white flowers in spikes.
Chemical Composition: The characteristic flavor and scent of peppermint are attributed to its essential oil, which contains menthol as a major component. Other compounds found in peppermint oil include menthone, menthyl acetate, and various terpenoids.
Cultivation: Peppermint is a hardy plant and is known to grow well in a variety of climates. It is often cultivated for commercial purposes, both for its culinary use and the extraction of essential oils.
Peppermint has been adapted for pharmaceutical and cosmetic purposes. Its essential oil is extracted for use in aromatherapy, and peppermint tea is a common herbal infusion enjoyed for both its taste and potential health benefits.

Content Management Systems | WordPress
WordPress is a popular open-source content management system (CMS) used for creating websites and blogs. It was first released in 2003 and has since become one of the most widely used website-building platforms in the world. WordPress is known for its ease of use, flexibility, and a vast ecosystem of plugins and themes that extend its functionality and design options. It’s often used by both beginners and experienced developers to build websites of various types, from simple blogs to complex e-commerce sites and corporate web applications.
When it comes to coding standards in WordPress, there are several key points to consider:
- WordPress Coding Standards: WordPress has its own set of coding standards that developers are encouraged to follow. These standards cover aspects like indentation, naming conventions, and best practices. Adhering to these standards makes it easier for multiple developers to collaborate on a project and helps ensure the long-term maintainability of your code.
- Security: WordPress developers should follow security best practices to protect websites from vulnerabilities and attacks. This includes practices like data validation, escaping output, and regular updates to plugins, themes, and the core WordPress software.
- Performance: Efficient code is important for website speed and user experience. Developers should optimize their code, use caching, and minimize database queries to ensure the site loads quickly.
- SEO Best Practices: Developers should follow SEO (Search Engine Optimization) best practices when building WordPress sites. This includes using clean, semantic HTML, optimizing images, and ensuring mobile responsiveness.
- Accessibility: Building accessible websites is essential to ensure that all users, including those with disabilities, can access and use your site. WordPress has made efforts to make its core software more accessible, and developers are encouraged to follow accessibility guidelines.
- Plugin and Theme Development: If you’re developing plugins or themes for WordPress, there are specific guidelines to follow. These ensure consistency, compatibility, and security. For instance, the WordPress Plugin Handbook and Theme Developer Handbook provide detailed information on best practices.
- Documentation: Good documentation is important for the maintainability of your code. WordPress developers are encouraged to provide clear and detailed documentation for their themes and plugins.
- Version Control: Utilizing version control systems like Git is common for WordPress development to track changes, collaborate with other developers, and maintain code integrity.
- Community Involvement: WordPress has a strong and active community. Engaging with this community, attending WordCamps, and contributing to open-source projects can help you stay updated with the latest best practices and standards.

Update Status
We continue working with Godaddy Tech Support to resolve the Standards Michigan blog post and slider update problem — apparently a caching/firewall issue owed to interaction with other WordPress plug-ins that prohibit simultaneous updates across all time zones.
Until that function is restored to the operation that worked flawlessly for eight years until last Thursday morning, the links below contain the content you might have missed:

This is a test post to help GoDaddy Tech Support restore full functionality of the Standards Michigan website. For eight years content here was updated instantly and accurately across all time zones on the internet until last Thursday — flawlessly.
As software eats the world we have to roll with it; adjusting accordingly. Our 50-state gathering place is no less an engineered system as the WordPress open source software platform.
This post gives GoDaddy WordPress programmers a visible reference mark for content flow. Daily topics which appear on our CALENDAR remains secure as normal and is linked below for the convenience of our colleagues, clients, subscribers and visitors. From a technical standpoint, nothing has changed; only the manner in which topics appear on our simple but fast home page.
This page will also be posted to our X-feed.
Our footer has somehow vanished along with that functionality — more likely a WordPress plug in. Until GoDaddy WordPress experts restore it, our location can be found on our CONTACT page.

Virtual reality technology in evacuation simulation of sport stadiums
Xiao Yi | Shanghai University of Sport
Abstract. With the activities of major sports events have become increasingly active and the social influence of sports events is gradually increasing, people have more and more opportunities to watch matches in sports stadiums. Sports stadium, as a place of relatively large occupant density, has high demands for its safe operation except that it is necessary to meet the needs of competitions. Under the unexpected situations, how to ensure the public safety has become the focus of social concern. This paper takes the emergent evacuation simulation of sports stadium as a main research object. It concerns the main problems that how to use virtual reality technology to build a three-dimensional simulated scene of sports stadium; how to truly simulated the whole evacuation process of many people under unexpected situations. The scene modeling of sports stadium, The construction of evacuation model, The visualization of evacuation process, Dynamic Roaming and Interaction design, Evaluation system and other issues are discussed in this article.

The Halloween Problem
A well-intentioned query and the Halloween Problem
Abstract: The author’s description of the Halloween Problem demonstrates the role of cautionary tales in the history of computing. The Halloween Problem emerged in the context of structured query language optimization in relational database research. Normally, a query optimizer works by measuring system calls and paging requests and applying heuristics to the entire access path tree. Query optimization was one of the most challenging tasks facing System R researchers at IBM. These experiments with query optimization form the milieu in which the Halloween Problem emerged.
