Latex

Latex is a stable dispersion (emulsion) of polymer microparticles in an aqueous medium. It is found in nature, but synthetic latexes can be made by polymerizing a monomer such as styrene that has been emulsified with surfactants.

Latex as found in nature is a milky fluid found in 10% of all flowering plants (angiosperms). It is a complex emulsion consisting of proteins, alkaloids, starches, sugars, oils, tannins, resins, and gums that coagulate on exposure to air. It is usually exuded after tissue injury. In most plants, latex is white, but some have yellow, orange, or scarlet latex. Since the 17th century, latex has been used as a term for the fluid substance in plants. It serves mainly as defense against herbivorous insects. Latex is not to be confused with plant sap; it is a separate substance, separately produced, and with separate functions.

The word is also used to refer to natural latex rubber, particularly non-vulcanized rubber. Such is the case in products like latex gloves, latex condoms and latex clothing. Many people are allergic to rubber latex.

LaTeX

LaTeX (/ˈlɑːtɛx/ LAH-tekh, commonly pronounced as /ˈlɑːtɛk/ LAH-tek or /ˈleɪtɛk/ LAY-tek, styled as LaTeX, and a shortening of Lamport TeX) is a word processor and a document markup language. It is distinguished from typical word processors such as Microsoft Word, LibreOffice Writer and Apple Pages in that the writer uses plain text as opposed to formatted text, relying on markup tagging conventions to define the general structure of a document (such as article, book, and letter), to stylise text throughout a document (such as bold and italic), and to add citations and cross-referencing. A TeX distribution such as TeX Live or MikTeX is used to produce an output file (such as PDF or DVI) suitable for printing or digital distribution.

LaTeX is used for the communication and publication of scientific documents in many fields, including mathematics, physics, computer science, statistics, economics, and political science. It also has a prominent role in the preparation and publication of books and articles that contain complex multilingual materials, such as Sanskrit and Arabic. LaTeX uses the TeX typesetting program for formatting its output, and is itself written in the TeX macro language.

Deeper (Meredith Andrews album)

Deeper is the fifth studio album by Meredith Andrews. Word Records are releasing the album on February 19, 2016. Andrews worked with producers, Jason Ingram, Paul Mabury, Seth Mosley, Jacob Sooter, in the production of this album.

Background

The producers she chose to work with to make the music for this album was her husband, Jacob Lee Sooter, and three others, Jason Ingram, Seth Mosley, and Paul Mabury. The lead single "Soar" was released to radio in late-2015.

Critical reception

Awarding the album four and a half stars from CCM Magazine, Matt Conner states, "While already a successful recording artist, Andrews has yet to breakthrough to true stardom, but Deeper might do the trick. The songs are here, as well as the stories. It’s more of the same from Andrews, and we wouldn’t have it any other way." Jeremy Armstrong, giving the album four stars at Worship Leader, writes, "Ultimately, Deeper is a reminder of his promise to complete the work he began in those who love him. And the result is a powerful offering of praise, an offering that gathers hearts toward the arms of the Father". Rating the album five stars for 365 Days of Inspiring Media, Jonathan Andre describes, "Deeper, by all accounts, may even top Meredith’s previous album recording, in both lyrical and musical content." Amanda Brogan-DeWilde, allocating the album three and a half stars by New Release Today, says, "Deeper carries the classic worship album sound and feel. It's soft, positive and drenched in Scripture."
