China and the Product Quality Law of P. R. China, has been officially issued on Oct. 9th, 2003. After a transition period of one year, the standard has come into effect on Oct. 1, 2004, instead of GB 6675-1986 Safety of Toys. The standard applies to all toys, i.e. any product or material designed or clearly intended for use in play by children under 14 years old. Toys, produced or sold in national market, including the imported, probational and complimentary toys, should accord with GB 6675-2003.展开更多

We will study the Riemann Hypothesis in two stages: a) By using the EP we will prove that the distribution of events e (even) and o (odd) of Square Free Numbers (SFN) on the axis Ax(N) of naturals is Heads-Tails (H-T) type. b) By using the CI we will explain the way that the distribution of prime numbers can be correlated with the non-trivial zeros of the function <em>ζ</em>(<em>s</em>) of Riemann.
