Using the ChemFig package in LaTeX, you can generate the Phthalocyanine molecule as follows:
\scriptsize
\chemfig{*6(-=(-CN)-(-CN)=-=)} % phthalonitrile
}
\subfigure[\ch{CuC32N8H16}]{
\scriptsize
\chemfig{N?(=[::+72]*5(-N-(=N-[::-72]*5(=[,,,1]N-[,,1](=N-[::-36]*5(-N-(-N=[::-72]*5(-N=[,,1]?-*6(-=-=-=)–))=*6(-=-=–)-=))-*6(-=-=–)=-))-*6(-=-=-=)–))-[,,,,draw=none]-[,,,,draw=none]Cu(-[:55,,,,dash pattern=on 2pt off 1pt])(-[:-55])(-[:125])(-[:-125,,,,dash pattern=on 2pt off 1pt])}

Machine learning can be useful for data analysis, so I have gotten more familiar with a few techniques using mostly online books and tutorials. Here is a another list of online machine learning tutorials.

Over the years, I have been able to visit quite a few countries around the world. In many countries, I arrived by bicycle, train or bus and left as well. For example, Mongolia, we entered from Russia by train and left through the south-end towards China. Some borders, however, are more difficult to cross. Kyrgyzstan, we entered by bicycle across Kyzyl mountain pass into "Noman's Land", which stretches a good 10km.
I painted the world in red for those countries that I visited for at least 1 day.

Having bicycled part of M41 of the Silk Road through Tadjikistan and Badakhshan, ending in Kyrgyzstan, I know the beauty of Central Asia. It's wonderful to bike there, so the Silk Road Mountain Race has great routes through that part of the country, plus Kyrgyzstan, the visa is easier, as well as flights in and out, since Tajikistan does (did) not have EU approved runways at the time, flying in was difficult.
