The mole (symbol: mol) is one of the seven SI base units and is commonly used in chemistry.
A mole of any gas at a pressure of 100,000 Pa and a temperature of 300 K is 25 litres, see example.
The definition of a mole was originally chosen so that 14 grams (or 0.014 kg) of nitrogen constitute one mole; however, the definitions of the mole and the atomic mass unit are currently set so that one mole of carbon-12, which has a relative atomic mass of 12 u, is exactly 0.012 kg.

 SUNY-ESF: Adirondack Ecological Center
The hairy-tailed mole lacks the fleshy nasal tentacles of the star-nosed mole, but both possess fossorial specializations, e.g., minute eyes covered by fur; an absence of external ears; short, directionless fur, tapered snout, the lateral, crescent-shaped nostrils at the tip and opening upward; short limbs, and a nearly cylindrical body.
Most distinctive are the front feet that are modified for digging, and in the hairy-tailed mole, are broad, almost round in shape, and armed with short, stout claws.
The hairy-tailed mole uses its highly-developed sense of touch and smell to locate prey, catching some of these animals on the surface - a feeding strategy it is more likely to adopt at night - and the rest in the top layers of soil and plant debris.

 University of Florida News - UF researchers delcare victory in 25-year battle against invasive mole cricket pests
The northern mole cricket, which is indigenous to the state, is not closely related to the three South American invaders, and it is not troublesome because native wasp and nematode species in Florida keep it under control.
Of the three, the tawny mole cricket is the most destructive, eating grass roots in Florida pastures and turf as well as the roots of tomatoes, cabbages, eggplants and bell pepper seedlings, Frank said.
After the wasp stings the pest mole cricket and lays an egg, the wasp grub (larva) begins feeding on the mole cricket and kills it within two weeks.

 Chapter 4:Mobility and Mobile Agent Systems
Although the first architecture, Telescript, seems to be the most complete mobile agent system in terms of the characteristics identified, the main problem is that it only supports the Telescript language and is not open to researchers to develop.
Both Project Mole and APRIL are interesting in that they support a programming language (rather than some of the previous mobile agent systems which support scripting languages), but the Mole system can be criticised for a lack of synchronous communication and execution constraints.
One feature that all of these mobile agent architectures have currently failed to address is in defining a domain of applicability; they all concentrate on the mobility of agents rather than the integration of agents with information resources.
