The wait is finally over for the fans of pop diva Celine Dion, who is holding three concerts at the Taipei Arena during her first visit to Taiwan. At her first concert last night, Celine opened the show with her passionate ballad, “The Power of Love.” She sang almost 20 classic hits, winning over the over 10,000 Taiwanese fans with her dazzling style and stage charisma.
Celine surged to international fame with her megahit “My Heart Will Go On,” the theme song from the 1997 blockbuster movie “Titanic.” With over 250 million copies of her records sold in a career spanning over three decades, the Canadian superstar is one of the most celebrated singers in the world.
Her Asian concert tour started off last month in Tokyo, followed by Macau, Singapore, Jakarta, Taipei, Manila, and Bangkok, before moving on to several cities in Australia and New Zealand next month.

Long before numerals and arithmetic systems developed, humans relied on tally marks to count. These simple, repeated marks — often just straight lines — are one of the earliest and most widespread methods of recording numbers. Archaeological findings suggest that humans began tallying in prehistoric times. During the Late Stone Age in Africa, humans began to carve notches onto bones to create tangible records of quantities. One of the earliest known examples is the Wolf bone, an artifact unearthed in Central Europe in 1937. This bone bears notches believed to be an early form of counting. Even more intriguing

Nvidia believes it can eventually reap US$50 billion from artificial intelligence (AI) chip sales in China. But it so far has
Continued from yesterday（延續自昨日） https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/lang In many Western countries, the most common form of tally marks employs a five-bar gate structure: four vertical lines followed by a diagonal slash. To form this group, one begins by drawing four parallel vertical lines, each representing one. For the fifth, draw a diagonal line across the existing four. This diagonal stroke effectively creates a distinct group of five. To continue counting, just initiate a new cycle in the same manner. A set of five tallies combined with a single vertical line next to it represents the number six. Across many Asian countries, the Chinese character
