 Even neurons have favorite numbers
Activity of neurons in the prefrontal cortex of monkeys trained to judge the number of dots on a computer screen reflected changes in quantity -- peaking for a preferred number and then dropping off progressively as the discrepancy between numbers of dots increased, the researchers found.
They found that the activity of at least a third of the neurons varied along with the number of dots seen, and their consistent patterns for a given number also generalized across widely varied displays, signaling that the cells were indeed tuning to quantity.
When brain activity for the preferred quantity dropped significantly, there was an increased probability for the monkey to give the wrong answer, providing further confirmation that the measured brain activity was related to their behavior.

 Preferred number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Preferred numbers are chosen such that when a product is manufactured in many different sizes, these will end up roughly equally spaced on a logarithmic scale.
The factor between two consecutive numbers in a Renard series is constant (before rounding), namely the 5th, 10th, 20th, or 40th root of 10 (1.58, 1.26, 1.12, and 1.06, respectively), which leads to a geometric sequence.
Preference is given to the multiples of 3 M (= 300 mm) and 6 M (= 600 mm) of the basic module, which has led to the false belief the sizes were based on a "metric foot".

 Stocks - COMMON STOCK, PREFERRED STOCK, FOREIGN STOCK, INVESTMENT CHARACTERISTICS
Preferred stock offers holders priority in receiving dividends and in claiming assets in the event of business liquidation, but it also lacks the voting rights afforded to common stockholders.
Preferred stock is sometimes called a hybrid, since it has some of the properties of equity and some of the properties of debt.
Preferred dividends are not tax-deductible expenses for the firm, and consequently the cost to the firm of raising capital from this source is higher than for debt.

 Equal mean sizes
Low priority jobs prefer more servers because low priority jobs are preempted by high priority jobs and thus their mean response time improves with more servers, which allows them to escape from the dominance of high priority jobs.
Interestingly, the number of servers preferred with respect to the overall mean is nearly identical to that shown for a single aggregate class of high and low priority jobs, shown in the bottom most plot in column (a).
For example, the topmost plot in column (b) shows that the number of servers preferred by high priority jobs is much fewer, since there are fewer high priority jobs in the systems, and they benefit from a fewer but faster servers (as many slow servers lead to low utilization).
