Maximum Temperature Map Of The United States
In mathematical analysis, the maxima and minima (the respective plurals of maximum and minimum) of a function, known collectively as extrema (the plural of extremum), are the largest and smallest value of the function, either within a given range (the ''local'' or ''relative'' extrema), or on the entire domain (the ''global'' or ''absolute'' extrema). Pierre de Fermat was one of the first mathematicians to propose a general technique, adequality, for finding the maxima and minima of functions. As defined in set theory, the maximum and minimum of a set are the greatest and least elements in the set, respectively. Unbounded infinite sets, such as the set of real numbers, have no minimum or maximum. Definition A real-valued function ''f'' defined on a domain ''X'' has a global (or absolute) maximum point at ''x''∗, if for all ''x'' in ''X''. Similarly, the function has a global (or absolute) minimum point at ''x''∗, if for all ''x'' in ''X''. The value of the function at ...

Boca, California
Boca (Spanish for "Mouth") is a former settlement in Nevada County, California. Situated at an elevation of above sea level, Boca is located on the Southern Pacific Railroad, northeast of Truckee. History Boca was named by Judge Edwin Bryant Crocker of the Central Pacific Railroad in 1868 because of its location at the mouth of the Little Truckee River. In Spanish, ''Boca'' translates to "mouth" and "river mouth". Crocker’s younger brother, Charles, was one of the four who oversaw the Central Pacific Railroad's construction and operation. Boca's location at the mouth of the river and along the route of the transcontinental railroad helped turn what was a small construction camp into a settlement. Because of its extremely cold winters and abundance of trees, investors developed saw mills, ice cutting companies, and eventually a brewery in 1876. The cold climate of Boca made it a perfect location for ice companies, as well a place to brew California’s first lager. It had a ...
