electron
An electron is not a particle or a wave a such, but actually a region of space surrounding a nucleus which "has a property of 'electron-ness'". These regions of space are fixed positions around the nucleus called orbitals. There are several types of orbital, each with its own shape and corresponding bond-type. 'Electron-ness' is the quality which allows electrons to exist in a state which is defined as electrons. Circular logic? You bet!
chirac
The current Right Wing president of France, a country in Europe. Chirac appears to be one of the few leaders that realises he doesn't have to bark to the yankee's tune. If only there were more like him.
