Earth Optimism provides an alternative narrative to mainstream environmental news by highlighting the potential for humans to positively impact the environment by making small changes at individual and community levels. It focuses on positive technological advances and ecological success stories to illustrate the potential for hope in the face of environmental challenges. Due to occurrences such as habitat loss, the increasing number of endangered species and the rapid escalation of climate change, there tends to be a negative outlook towards the impacts of human on the Earth. The Earth Optimism approach seeks to minimize defeatist mindsets concerning the environment and has become an increasingly popular strategy that many individuals employ in order to slow and reverse negative anthropogenic impacts on the Earth.

Earth Optimism's merit in influential and motivational behavior. Earth Optimism is a mechanism for creating"}, {"text": "environmental change. Pressing issues, such as climate change, have placed environmental issues in the forefront of media. Although education and understanding of environmental issues has increased, many feel as though their individual actions are powerless to affect change in large-scale problems. Personal efficacy, the idea that the actions of an individual can be effective in implementing change, is overlooked as a tool for addressing environmental problems. It is instead important for environmental involvement to be viewed as achievable through a collective group, thus encouraging collective efficacy. Many environmental goals have proven too lofty to accomplish on an individual scale, further reinforcing that effective methods must include contributions from communities. Disseminating information that highlights environmental successes can motivate people to implement environmental changes. It has been proven that when presented large-scale problems with no clear solution, people tend to feel defeated and demonstrate lackadaisical attitudes. When people are exposed to successful environmental progress, they may be encouraged to contribute further. The promise, or at least the possibility, of what can be done is very influential in gaining support. For example, in some public health ad campaigns, when individuals viewed smoking cessation ads with information and resources on how to quit, they"}, {"text": "were more likely to change their habits and actions. Exposure to social norms can be a primary source in influencing people's actions. There are two types of social norms that are documented: descriptive and prescriptive social norms. Prescriptive social norms dictate societal expectations in terms of actions and behaviors, while descriptive social norms come from personal comparison to how others are acting. Oftentimes, the latter has a much stronger influence on how people and communities act. Seeing others perform actions which are both positive and influential is a powerful tool in encouraging collective efficacy and influencing individuals to actually come together to take action. As an example of this principle, some studies have shown that people are more likely to believe in climate change if their peers share this belief. Dr. Phillip Ehret of California State University San Marcos makes note of the extreme influence on individuals by their peers. If people knew that climate change was more commonly believed among their peers, they would be more likely to believe in it themselves. Therefore, simple things such as ad campaigns or more access to accurate information regarding climate change can make a big difference in gaining support for the environmental"}, {"text": "movement. Exposure to such messages can influence things such as motivation. Understanding the power of optimism and the reasons for motivation can be especially important in utilizing Earth Optimism as an instrumental part of promoting community togetherness. The practice of using optimism as a tool to attain a goal is not a new idea. In sports, mental tools such as positive-self talk and goal setting have been used to aid in athlete achievement and success. The theory is based on Charles Carver and Michael Scheier's principle that human nature is to work towards or avoid different mental goals. According to Suzanne Segerstrom and Lise Solberg Nes, the probability of working towards and achieving a goal can be increased through the application of optimism as a mental tool for influencing behavior. Motivation drives people to alter their behavior in order to achieve a goal. Motivation styles differ, however, altering the effect of optimism across individuals. Avoidance motivation, or behavior influenced by avoiding failure and potential negative outcomes, is one driver to achieve goals. Those who are motivated by avoidance may oppose conservation efforts, believing the conservation movement will not succeed and their efforts will be wasted (concerns about personal efficacy). The"}, {"text": "Earth Optimism movement aims to decrease the perceived threat of failure through success stories, therefore reducing a psychological barrier to goal attainment (environmental conservation) created by avoidance motivation. By providing a picture of success, optimism alleviates fear of failure, allowing avoidance motivated individuals to strive to provide greater support to the conservation movement. Individuals process mental strategies differently, and Earth Optimism can also have less successful effects on conservation efforts. Those who are approach-motivated, or find motivation in working towards the successful completion of a goal, may be influenced differently by success stories. An overoptimistic viewpoint may result in decreased goal attainment. This is due to underestimation of risks as a result of focusing solely on the end goal or persisting in unattainable endeavors for too long rather than taking a new approach. Opponents of Earth Optimism argue that encouraging more optimism is not always the best solution for some individuals and could potentially hurt the conservation movement. Motivational science supports arguments for and against using a generalized optimistic outlook for the conservation movement. Carver and Scheier hypothesize that avoidance motivation has a stronger effect on human nature than approach motivation due to evolutionary tactics. This bodes well for the"}, {"text": "Earth Optimism movement, as it suggests avoidance motivation, on which optimism has a greater effect, has more drive behind our behaviors than approach motivation. Therefore, Earth Optimism can be used to motivate more people by playing to the stronger motivator: avoiding failure. Earth Optimism and Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK). Traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) is defined as the shared beliefs and cultural, place-based knowledge held by Indigenous peoples about how humans and living beings relate to the environment and to one another. Although TEK has been practiced for millennia, there has been a recent surge in interest in TEK, both as an area of study and as a means to inform conservation and natural resource management decision making. TEK can be used to inform research and management across a range of conservation interests, including biodiversity, threatened species, aquatic ecosystems, fire, invasive species, and climate change. Because native people only make up about 4-5% of the world's population, it is easy to leave out or forget about their perspective. One of the most important messages from traditional and Indigenous people is their sense of equanimity and optimism. Incorporating Indigenous perspectives into the conversation, especially in environmental education programs, can help to improve"}, {"text": "the damaged relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. Public figures that incorporate TEK and Indigenous Knowledge into Earth Optimism include: \u2022 Winona LaDuke, an environmentalist, political activist and a member of the White Earth Nation, is well known for her commitment to sustainable development and working with Indigenous communities. She states that TEK represents the clearest empirically based system for resource management and ecosystem protection in North America She mentions that native societies' knowledge surpasses the scientific and social knowledge of the dominant society in its ability to provide information and a management style for environmental planning. \u2022 Chief James Allan, the Vice-Chairman of the Coeur d'Alene Tribe in Idaho, is another important public figure working to strengthen environmental and educational programs in his tribe. \u2022 Steven Martin, Director of the McNair Program at the University of Idaho and a member of the Muscogee Creek Nation, works with undergraduate students, teaching them about the importance of incorporating Indigenous Knowledge and TEK into research and decolonizing the western education system. \u2022 Autumn Peltier, 15-year old Indigenous climate activist and member of the Wiikwemkoong First Nation. Her efforts as an advocate for clean water have inspired many people to get involved with"}, {"text": "her community and speak up against pipeline projects and to address the issue of the lack of clean water for many Indigenous communities. TEK has also been incorporated into school curricula in the form of culturally significant figures and ideas in education. Presenting environmental science in a way that is understandable to those used to a more traditional ecological reference such as TEK also respects and legitimizes the value of indigenous perspectives. Incorporating TEK into environmental optimism has the same effect as incorporating it into environmental science and education programs. One goal of Earth Optimism is to show what is working in conservation so that successes can be scaled up and replicated. The integration of TEK into western-science based projects is an example of one such conservation approach that is working. One frequently cited and well-documented example of successful integration of TEK with a western science-based approach to managing ecosystems comes from northern Australia. For several decades, ecosystem managers in the Kakadu National Park have collaborated with Aboriginal groups to successfully reintegrate traditional burning practices in an effort to lessen the size, severity, and negative effects of late-season wildfires. Not only has this ongoing effort helped park managers achieve objectives,"}, {"text": "but it has also improved interethnic relationships and relationships between park officials and local Aboriginal people. The lessons learned and best-practices developed from reintegrating traditional burning practices in northern Australia could be exported and scaled appropriately to help meet fire and natural resource management goals in other similarly fire-prone areas. For example, areas in the western and southeastern United States that in pre-colonial times were characterized by frequent burning by Indigenous peoples but are now dominated by notably different, and arguably more destructive, fire regimes could benefit from the integration of TEK-based burning practices. Federal agency oversight of oil and gas development in the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) of Alaska provides another example of successful integration of TEK into modern ecosystem management. The U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is the federal agency responsible for approval of OCS development projects. BOEM recognizes that traditional knowledge and scientific knowledge are complementary systems, despite using different methodologies that ask different questions, and that using both provides a better understanding of what is occurring in an ecosystem or region. BOEM policy seeks to integrate TEK into multiple areas of OCS decision making, including designing, planning, and conducting scientific"}, {"text": "research; applying data from both TEK and western science knowledge systems at the earliest opportunity in the process; using traditional knowledge in environmental analysis and mitigation; consulting with Indigenous leaders; and applying traditional knowledge at a programmatic decision level. This commitment to TEK integration has been a success in helping to mitigate potential conflicts between resource development activities and traditional subsistence activities like fishing, hunting, and whaling on Alaska's North Slope and could serve as a broad model for government agencies at the local, state, federal, and international level to incorporate TEK-based methodologies into resource development decision making processes. Criticism of Earth Optimism. Although Earth Optimism is a relatively new concept in the field of Environmental philosophy, a number of arguments against the movement have been proposed. The \"blissful ignorance\" argument suggests that conservationists have to be careful not to be ignorant to the wide-scale environmental problems present across the globe. From this, critics argue that by focusing solely on positive news, an objective perspective of the broad issue is lost and therefore people can be swayed to think that issues will be solved without actually changing behaviors. Another argument suggests that the balance between \"combating conservation despair\" and \"avoiding"}, {"text": "the perverse outcome of breeding self-deceit and naive optimism\" needs to be considered. This is also emphasized in a review on Steven Pinker's optimism; his argument is summarized simply by stating, \"We need to face up to these and other daunting challenges while nurturing the positivity required to tackle them\". This argument essentially states that we need to find a balance between acknowledging the challenges that we currently face and could potentially be facing in the near future, and being positive about the steps that we are taking forward as a society in order to fix the problems. Nancy Knowlton, Sant Chair for Marine Science at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, has incorporated Earth Optimism into her work on coral reefs and has presented many lectures on the subject. Regarding Earth Optimism, she said,\" There are two arguments. One is that you'll make people apathetic because they'll think we're fine. The other is that you'll give evidence to the dark side, people who are against any kind of conservation anyway, they'll use your efforts to say we don't need to do anything. Every time we give a talk I would say somebody in the audience raises an issue"}, {"text": "more or less related to one of those arguments\". The first argument she often hears relates to the argument of blissful ignorance in that only focusing on the positive can give people the wrong mindset of not needing to do anything. The second argument implies that people use the positive stories to negate the importance of conservation strategies. Interactions of Perspectives. Negative environmental portrayal. Social media influences many aspects of society and individual lives. Anyone can voice opinions online, regardless of fame or formal media attention. Individuals have the right to make their opinions known, regardless of the quality of content and supporting data. Social media is a continual online conversation that shapes thoughts and ideas about the environment and it can alter how the media portrays many issues, including climate change. Many organizations and individuals actively speak out against the validity of climate change to decrease public concern. Environmentalism is an issue they want to see minimized. This influence can greatly affect how the media reports information regarding these issues. One such large corporation seeking to influence the conversation is the ExxonMobil oil company. According to an article in The Guardian, ExxonMobil funded many lobby groups that published inaccurate"}, {"text": "and misleading information about climate change. One of the lobby groups, the Heritage Foundation, published a memo that read \"Growing scientific evidence casts doubt on whether global warming constitutes a threat\". It makes sense that an oil company would want the public to think there are no current environmental concerns; drilling for oil and burning it is not necessarily the best thing we could be doing for our planet. This type of propaganda defeats the purpose of Earth Optimism because it tries to convince people that there isn't a problem to deal with in the first place. ExxonMobil is not the only company, however, that is active in denying climate change. Since the 1950s, the Tobacco industry has been active in denying science to \"counter the mounting evidence of the link between cigarettes and lung cancer.\" Conservative foundations such as The Heartland Institute and the George C. Marshall Institute have supported the fossil fuel industry, benefiting from the spread of doubts and misinformation regarding climate change. It has been found that these groups' strategies have ranged from writing editorials and commentaries in conservative media and blogs, editing reports, appearing on television, and even sometimes publishing in peer-reviewed articles. The fossil"}, {"text": "fuel industry and conservative groups and lobbyists are constantly on social media and the news openly denying climate change in order to sway the public's opinions. Doing so would encourage fewer people to be more environmentally conscious and thus remove the idea of Earth Optimism altogether. Positive environmental portrayal. The continual presence of unfiltered media conversations makes it difficult to discern factual research-driven information from biased agenda-driven content. It is hard to know whom to trust and which people or sites to choose from. Earth Optimism is really important in terms of climate change. Those who are Earth optimistic are usually pro climate change and believe we can change our actions to help the planet recover. Greta Thunberg starts off a speech by saying \"My message is we're watching you\" (Reuters). She is a really strong person in the media due to her age and attention, and whether you agree with her or not, she is receiving a lot of attention and is very important in the media for climate optimism.

The interactions between optimistic populations and negative-outlook populations is crucial to establishing relevant discussions, particularly in politics. Politicians, through establishing legislation, hold the most power to affect positive environmental change. Negative perspectives that remain unchallenged are unlikely to bring about productive action or legislation. For example, United States President Donald Trump is clashing with numerous environmental activists, scientists, and land management agency.

Writers characterize Stanley as \"a socially and politically engaged satirist\" in the tradition of history painting, whose work documents the human condition, modern-day romance, and contemporary social issues using humor, allegory, myth and idiosyncratic, expressive figuration.

Classical and contemporary allegories. In the early 1980s, Stanley introduced two new elements into her work: travel-inspired classical motifs that she mixed with contemporary themes and situations, and a \"Zelig\" or Where's Wally-like alter ego she called the \"Archetypal Artist,\" who metamorphosed into various contemporary and mythical roles, clad in a red-and-white striped shirt and green Capri pants. The classical influence included Rococo oil brushwork and chiaroscuro modeling, mural-sized canvasses, elaborate faux-gilded, \"trompe-l'oeil\" proscenia and frames (e.g., \"Anatomy Lesson\", 2003) and Pompeiian or French-baroque room installations with pedestals and papier-m\u00e2ch\u00e9 Greek vases. Stanley's signature slapstick humor, expressiveness and formal characteristics remained, now employed in increasingly detail-packed parodies and farcical melodramas of women confronting romantic conflicts, fantasies and fears, and social taboos. Critic David Winter likened their wit to English caricaturists such as Hogarth, James Gillray and Thomas Rowlandson, but \"seasoned\" with the authentically American influences of 1930s Realism and \"Mad Magazine\" zaniness. Stanley used mythological elements (in works such as \"Cupid Chastised or the Morning After\" or \"Leda and the Swan\") to both flesh out her modern dramas and evoke the irrational, while camouflaging the personal; her humor functioned to demystify myths, puncture art-world seriousness, and balance darker psychological"}, {"text": "themes. \"Art in America\" critic David S.

In contemporary scenes, Stanley chronicles romance, friendship, and art-world experiences; \"Artweek\"'s Cathy Curtis described them as \"the art world's answer to Dorothy Parker, Erma Bombeck, and Erica Jong.\" In \"Sacred and Profane Love\" (1982) and \"All That Glitters Is Not Gold\" (1988), women confront romantic predicaments: fighting to redirect her man's attention from a nearby nude statue, or in the latter, women's fruitless curiosity about men.

Later history paintings and sketchbooks. Stanley's later work increasingly followed in the tradition of history painting, documenting contemporary issues and follies through large-scale, elaborately coded allegories. \"San Francisco Chronicle\" critic Charles Desmarais describes them as displaying \"an antic intelligence and a loose style ... at [its] best when humorously sending up classical subjects and Old Master concerns\" (e.g., \"Truncis Naribus (Faces Without Noses)\", 2014). They include skewerings of male folly (\"Midas\", 1997, which depicts the king touching something he shouldn't have), and female foibles (her 1999 restaging of the \"Seven Deadly Sins\" in a women's restroom).

Due to its extremely fragmented condition, only an incomplete reconstruction of the helmet is possible, but it appears to have been an example of the \"crested helmets\" that flourished in England and Scandinavia from the sixth through eleventh centuries. A full speculative reconstruction was attempted in 1969, suggesting a cap made in segments, with brow and nose-to-nape bands; pieces of metal attached to the brow band likely provided neck, cheek, and face protection. The nose-to-nape band was decorated with ornamental bronze sheeting, and an eyebrow piece, which survives in full and also featured animal-head terminals, was inlaid with strips of a material such as silver.

An email began to be circulated amongst Penn State fans to both wear blue to the game and not to sell their tickets to Cornhusker fans. Dubbed \"Operation Visine\" (to \"get the red out\"), this precursor to the modern White Out worked, as there was not only record attendance, most of whom were Penn State fans, but the Nittany Lions upset #7 Nebraska 40\u20137. In 2004, to try and draw extra excitement for the team in what was a down year for the program, the Penn State Athletic Department asked students to wear white to the upcoming game against Purdue. Over 20,000 students participated and, despite losing the game, it was deemed a success. Students were again asked to wear white to the following game against Iowa in what is considered to be one of the program's worst outings.

The White Out would be cemented in 2005 with an upset win over rival Ohio State. The crowd was the second largest in Beaver Stadium history at the time, which many believe helped Penn State win. For the 2007 game against Notre Dame, the all-white dress code would be officially extended to all spectators, not just the student section.

The Western Block became tectonically stable after the amalgamation in Precambrian. Sediment deposition and volcanic activities began to form rocks covering the Precambrian basement. Except a gap of geological record during Late Ordovician to Early Carboniferous, from Cambrian to Jurassic, various types of sedimentary rock formed a thick strata. In Early Cretaceous, extensive magmatic activities developed in the eastern part of the Western Block due to cratonic destruction. At that time, a large portion of the North China Craton was eliminated and unstable. The cratonic destruction was induced by the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the Asian continent, followed by crust thickening and hence gravitational collapse of the crust. The craton was thus in extension. The processes led to the thinning of crust, deformation and magmatic events over the North China Craton.

Since 2004, the Endangered Archives Programme has been administered by the British Library with the financial support of the Arcadia Fund. The Programme was initially based within the Asia, Pacific and Africa Collections (APAC) of the British Library and had two full-time members of staff, with the directorship being the responsibility of the head of APAC. In 2011, EAP moved to the newly formed Digital Scholarship section of the British Library. Previous directors include Graham Shaw, Susan Whitfield, Aly Conteh and Adam Farquhar. In 2018, a second phase of the Programme began with a further grant from Arcadia when EAP moved to the Collections and Curation department of the British Library.

The slogan was first used in 2016 by Hong Kong Indigenous spokesman Edward Leung as his campaign theme and slogan for the 2016 New Territories East by-election. He emphasised that anyone could take part in innovation and change regardless of age, hence the use of the phrase \"revolution of our times.\" In the legislative election held later that year, Youngspiration, which was cooperating with Hong Kong Indigenous as Leung was banned from running by the Electoral Affairs Commission, also used the slogan for their campaign. The slogan underwent a resurgence in 2019 as Hongkongers started using it for the protests against Hong Kong's extradition bill, leading to international attention. Annie Zhang, the former editor in chief of Initium Media, said the slogan was a strong wish for an escalation of tactics and a revolution, stating the wish of protesters for \"Hong Kong to become a Hong Kong for Hongkongers.\" In contrast, former Chief Executive of Hong Kong Tung Chee-hwa, pro-Beijing political parties, editor of the \"Global Times\" Hu Xijin, and Xinhua News Agency consider the slogan to involve Hong"}, {"text": "Kong independence and test the principle of \"one country, two systems.\" The Hong Kong government announced in an official statement on 2 July 2020 that anyone who uses the slogan can be prosecuted under the national security law which commenced on 30 June 2020.

The court ruling stated that such display of the words constituted incitement of others to commit secession. Origin. \"Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times\" was first suggested by Hong Kong localist camp activist Edward Leung as a slogan for social movements. Leung has continually advocated Hong Kong independence and localism and self-determination, considering Hong Kong to be a sovereign state, Hongkongers to be of the same group, and hoping to unite the \"inner strength\" of Hongkongers. At the press conference where Leung originally announced his bid for the 2016 New Territories East by-election, his campaign slogan was \"Walk the talk, innovation for our generation\" (). However, campaigners brainstormed another slogan in January 2016, as they considered the original slogan to be unable to attract"}, {"text": "voters to vote, alienating younger and older generations, and that its stance was not clear enough. The term \"liberate\" () was first used by the Guangfuhui (Restoration Society), founded in Shanghai in 1904, and by the revolutionaries of the Tongmenghui (Revolutionary Alliance), the predecessor to the Kuomintang. Its first use in Hong Kong's localist movement was in Reclaim Sheung Shui Station in 2012. In its early stages, Hong Kong Indigenous was most notable for its opposition to parallel trading in Hong Kong, and its series of \"liberation protests\" organised in 2015 in places like Tuen Mun, Sha Tin, Yuen Long and Sheung Shui in the New Territories. Thus, the use of the term \"liberate\" in its campaign slogan was to remind voters of the group's use of street resistance to advocate Hongkongers' rights. Although the by-election was held in the New Territories East constituency, \"Liberate Hong Kong\" was chosen over \"Liberate New Territories East\" () because the latter was more difficult to pronounce. The second half of the slogan was a modification of \"generational innovation\" in the original slogan, with \"revolution\" reflecting the group's political ideals and ideological position. Between \"revolution of our times\" () and \"revolution of our generation\""}, {"text": "(), Leung opted for \"revolution of our times\" as the campaign slogan to emphasise that innovation and change can be undertaken by people of all ages, and that it would not be a conflict between different generations because it only requested people to believe and embrace liberty. He also pointed out that a belief in liberty is enough to embrace a new generation, and that people should grasp and advocate for their future. At the same time, he also said that many people were unwilling to give in to totalitarianism and the existing political framework, believing that they can have a government for themselves. After his bid for the 2016 Hong Kong legislative election was disqualified, he said that Hong Kong had become a dictatorship, adding that revolution was the only solution to the situation at hand. Translation variations. Various English translations of the slogan have emerged since it became more widely used by anti-establishment protesters. The English version of Edward Leung's election platform used the translation \"Ignite revolution to reclaim our Hong Kong, our age.\" Other variations include: Usage. 2016 Legislative Council campaigns. In January 2016, Edward Leung announced his candidacy for the Legislative Council's New Territories East by-election,"}, {"text": "with the main purpose being the promotion of the ideologies of Hong Kong Indigenous and the localist camp. Previously, Hong Kong Indigenous suggested \"Safeguarding local values with force\" in order to achieve the goal of \"My city, therefore I defend it.\" On 8 February the same year, after the Mong Kok civil unrest, Leung presented \"Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times\" and \"Confronting violence with force\" as campaign themes and slogans. The Registration and Electoral Office allowed \"Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times\" to be listed in Leung's election platform in their election guide, but refused to deliver his pamphlets for free because the Office considered the use of the terms \"autonomy\" and \"self-rule\" to be a \"fundamental breach\" of Article 1 of the Basic Law. During the election, Leung advocated the stances of \"Using force to resist violence\" and \"Liberate Hong Kong,\" leading to a polarised public opinion. Although forceful resistance and the Hong Kong independence movement attracted mainstream attention in Hong Kong, it also led to resistance from the Government of Hong Kong and the traditional pro-democracy camp.

He came third in the by-election, receiving 66,524 votes or 15.38% of the vote, of which the majority was from young voters. Subsequently, the radical localist camp in Hong Kong represented by Leung also received support from many young people. In the LegCo election held later that year, Youngspiration also used \"Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times\" as their campaign slogan, naming three candidates including Baggio Leung and Yau Wai-ching. After the election, the localist camp faced severe restrictions on their ability to participate in politics, with both Leung and Yau being disqualified from LegCo in the oath-taking controversy, and the Hong Kong National Party, another localist group, being banned. In June 2018, the High Court sentenced Leung to six years imprisonment for taking part in a riot on the night of the unrest and assaulting a police officer during the protests, while acquitting him of inciting a riot. 2019\u20132020 Hong Kong protests. During the 2019\u20132020 Hong Kong protests, protesters initially focused on opposing the introduction of the government-proposed extradition bill. At first, they used slogans such as \"Be water,\" \"No injury, no bleeding, no arrest; no disassociation, no snitching, no blaming,\" \"We fight on,"}, {"text": "each in his own way,\" \"Nobody left behind,\" etc. By mid-July, as the demonstrations had spread to more districts, the spectrum of protests widened, and the public had grown more tolerant of the use of force by protesters. Around that time, more and more young people started reminiscing Edward Leung. Protesters stuck posters reading \"Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times\" on Lennon Walls in the districts of Sha Tin and Tai Po, sometimes with \"Thank You Edward Leung\" written next to the posters. Protesters also commonly used the colloquial Cantonese term \",\" which means \"mutual destruction,\" as well as the slogan \"If we burn, you burn with us.\" As the protests escalated and became more frequent, \"Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times\" gained popularity as a slogan among protesters. On 21 July, protesters stormed the China Liaison Office, chanting the slogan. At around 7:45 pm, protesters hurled eggs and ink balloons at the building, with some ink hitting the building's Chinese emblem. Police dispersed the crowd with tear gas and rubber bullets. In response, political parties and LegCo members of the pro-Beijing camp issued a joint statement, in which they said the behaviour of \"liberation\" and \"revolution\" promoted"}, {"text": "Hong Kong independence and were illegal acts against the Basic Law and the principle of one country, two systems. Protesters organised a general strike and gatherings in seven districts on 5 August. On that day, Chief Executive of Hong Kong Carrie Lam condemned the slogan, saying that the slogan advocates revolution and challenges Chinese sovereignty. In response, many non-governmental organisations rebuked Lam's remarks as an attempt to defame the anti-extradition bill movement; for example, the Scholars' Alliance for Academic Freedom said that the slogan, which had been used in social movements since 2015, meant emphasising innovation and change and campaigning for rights via action; it did not carry a meaning of Hong Kong independence and did not ask for an actual revolution. During the Hong Kong International Airport sit-ins held between 9 and 11 August, a protester unfurled a banner carrying the slogan (modified as \"Liberate HK, Revolution Now\") from a footbridge inside the airport terminal. Protesters at the scene cheered and clapped, chanting the slogan multiple times.

This document is the last royal sealed diploma, which was issued on behalf of a private individual. In 1178, Paul was styled as royal chancellor. He formulated that royal privilege, in which B\u00e9la III ennobled three royal servants, the ancestors of the Salamon de Milej noble family and donated the village of Milej in Zala County to them. However this royal charter later proved to be a non-authentic forgery. He elevated into the position of Bishop of Transylvania by 1181.

There is no record of any further ecclesiastical activity of Paul in Transylvania. Sometime after the death of the forceful Archbishop Andrew of Kalocsa in 1186, Paul was elected as his successor.

Research found none of these proteins disrupted the expression of Cas genes nor the assembling of CRISPR molecules, so it was thought that those type I-F proteins directly affected the CRISPR\u2013Cas interference. Further investigation confirmed this hypothesis with the discovery of 4 other proteins (AcrE1, AcrE2, AcrE3 and AcrE4), which were shown to impede \"Pseudomonas aeruginosa\"\u2019s CRISPR-Cas system. Furthermore, the locus of the genes codifying these type I-E proteins was really close to the one responsible for the type I-F proteins expression in the same group of phages, leading to the conclusion that both types of proteins worked together. However, these first nine proteins shared no common sequence motifs, which would have made easier the identification of new Anti-CRISPR protein families. Later on, it was seen that phages that produced such proteins also encoded a putative transcriptional regulator named Aca 1 (anti-CRISPR associated 1) which was genetically located really close to the anti-CRISPR genes. This regulatory protein is supposed to be responsible for the anti-CRISPR gene expression during the infectious cycle of the phage, therefore, both types of proteins (anti-CRISPR and Aca1) seem"}, {"text": "to work together as a single mechanism. After some studies, a similar amino-acid sequence to that of Aca1 was found, leading to the discovery of Aca2, a new family of Aca proteins. Aca2 also revealed the existence of five new groups of type I-F anti-CRISPR proteins due to their genomic proximity: AcrF6, AcrF7, AcrF8, AcrF9 and AcrF10. These proteins were not only present in \"Pseudomonas aeruginosa\"\u2019s phages, as they also affected other cells of the \"Pseudomonadota\" (formerly \"Proteobacteria\"). Thanks to the use of bioinformatic tools, in 2016, AcrIIC1, AcrIIC2 and AcrIIC3 protein families were discovered in \"Neisseria meningitidis\" (which had been infected by phages previously). Such proteins were the first inhibitors of type II CRISPR\u2013Cas to be found (concretely, they impeded II-C CRISPR\u2013Cas9, the type of mechanism used in the genetic edition of human cells). A year later, a study confirmed the presence of type II-A CRISPR\u2013Cas9 inhibitors (AcrIIA1, AcrIIA2, AcrIIA3 and AcrIIA4) in \"Listeria monocytogenes\" (infected by bacteriophages which introduced the anti-CRISPR proteins). Two of those proteins (AcrIIA2 and AcrIIA4) were demonstrated to work properly against \"Streptococcus pyogenes\" type II-A defensive CRISPR system. The result of all this research has been the discovery of 21 different Anti-CRISPR protein families,"}, {"text": "despite other inhibitors may exist due to the quick mutational process of phages. Thus, more research is needed to unravel the complexity of anti-CRISPR systems. Types. Anti-CRISPR genes can be found in different parts of the phage DNA: in the capsid, the tail and at the extreme end. Moreover, it has been found that many MGEs have two or even three Acr genes in a single operon, which suggest that they could have been exchanged between MGEs. As all proteins, Acr family proteins are formed by the translation and transduction of the genes, and their classification is based on the type of CRISPR-Cas system they inhibit, due to the fact that each anti-CRISPR protein inhibits a specific CRISPR-Cas system. Although not many anti-CRISPR proteins have been discovered, these are the ones that have been found so far: So far, genes encoding anti-CRISPR proteins have been found in myophages, siphophages, putative conjugative elements and pathogenicity islands. Attempts have been made to find common surrounding genetic features of anti-CRISPR genes, but without any success. Nevertheless, the presence of an \"aca\" gene just below anti-CRISPR genes has been observed. The first Acr protein families to be discovered were AcrF1, AcrF2, AcrF3, AcrF4 and"}, {"text": "AcrF5. These inhibitors are mainly found in \"Pseudomonas\" phages, which are capable of infecting \"Pseudomonas aeruginosas\" possessing a type I\u2011F CRISPR\u2013Cas system. Then, in another study, AcrE1, AcrE2, AcrE3 and AcrE4 protein families were found to also inhibit the type I\u2011F CRISPR\u2013Cas in \"Pseudomonas aeruginosas.\" Later on, AcrF6, AcrF7, AcrF8, AcrF9 and AcrF10 protein families, which were also able to inhibit type I\u2011F CRISPR\u2013Cas, were found to be very common in Pseudomonadota MGEs. The first inhibitors of a type II CRISPR\u2013Cas system were then discovered: AcrIIC1, AcrIIC2 and AcrIIC3, that block the type II\u2011C CRISPR\u2013Cas9 activity of \"Neisseria meningitidis.\" Finally, AcrIIA1, AcrIIA2, AcrIIA3 and AcrIIA4 were found. These protein families have the ability to inhibit the type II\u2011A CRISPR\u2013Cas system of \"Listeria monocytogenes.\" As for the naming convention of Acr family proteins, it is established as follows: firstly, the type of system inhibited, then a numerical value referring to the protein family and finally the source of the specific anti-CRISPR protein. For example, AcrF9\"Vpa\" is active against the type I-F CRISPR\u2013Cas system. It also was the ninth anti-CRISPR described for this system, and it is encoded in an integrated MGE in a \"Vibrio parahaemolyticus\" genome. Structure. As exposed above, there"}, {"text": "is a wide spectrum of anti-CRISPR proteins, but few of these have been deeply studied. One of the most studied and well-defined Acrs is AcrIIA4, which inhibits Cas9, thus blocking the II-A CRISPR-Cas system of \"Streptococcus pyogenes\". AcrIIA4. The protein was solved using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR); it contains 87 residues and its molecular weight is 10.182 kDa. AcrIIA4 contains: There is a good definition of the secondary structures, as the three \u03b1-helices are packed near the three \u03b2-strands. Strikingly, between \u03b23 strand, \u03b12 and \u03b13 helices, there is a hydrophobic core, originated by a cluster of aromatic side chains which are attracted by non-covalent interactions, such as pi stacking. Moreover, as it is an acidic protein, there is a high concentration of negatively charged residues in the loops between \u03b23 and \u03b12, between \u03b12 and \u03b13, and in the first part of \u03b13, which may play an important role in the inhibition of Cas9, as negative charges might imitate phosphates of nucleic acids. AcrF1. On the other hand, there is another Acr, AcrF1, which may not have been as studied as the explained above, although there is a good description of its structure. It inhibits the I-F CRISPR-Cas system"}, {"text": "of \"Pseudomonas aeruginosa\". Maxwell et al. solved the 3D structure using NMR. The protein contains 78 residues, between which interact to form secondary structures. The structure of AcrF1 is formed of two anti-parallel \u03b1-helices and a \u03b2-sheet, which contains four anti-parallel \u03b2-strands. This \u03b2-sheet is placed in the contrary side of the \u03b1-helical part, which creates a hydrophobic core formed of 13 amino acids. Turns can also be found in different parts of the protein, for instance, joining the \u03b2-strands. There are surface residues which actively participate in the active site of AcrF1, two of which are tyrosines (Y6 and Y20) and the third amino acid is a glutamic acid (E31), as their mutation by an alanine causes a 100-fold decrease in the activity of the protein (with Y20A and E31A mutations), and a 107-fold decrease when Y6 is mutated. The different structures that form the protein create a strange combination, as Maxwell et al. conducted a DALI search in order to find similarities between other proteins, and they found no informative similarities. Function. Avoiding destruction of the phage DNA. The principal function of anti-CRISPR proteins is to interact with specific components of CRISPR-Cas systems, such as the effector nucleases,"}, {"text": "to avoid the destruction of the phage DNA (by binding or cleavage). A phage introduces its DNA into a prokaryotic cell, usually the cell detects a sequence known as \"target\", that activates CRISPR-Cas immune system, but the presence of an initial sequence (before the target) encoding the formation of Acr proteins, avoids phage destruction. Acr proteins are formed before the target sequence is read. This way, the CRISPR-Cas system is blocked before it can develop a response. The procedure starts with the CRISPR locus being transcribed into crRNAs (CRISPR RNA). CrRNAs combine with Cas proteins forming a ribonucleoprotein complex called Cascade. This complex surveys the cell to find complementary sequences of the crRNA. When this sequence is found, the Cas3 nuclease is recruited to the Cascade, and the target DNA from the phage is cleaved. But, for instance, when AcrF1 and AcrF2 are found (anti-CRISPR proteins), these interact with Cas7f and Cas8f-Cas5f, respectively, not allowing the binding to the phage DNA. Moreover, the cleaving of the target is prevented by the union between AcrF3 and Cas3. The majority of Acr genes are located next to anti-CRISPR-associated (Aca) genes, which encode proteins with a helix-turn-helix DNA-binding motif. Aca genes are preserved,"}, {"text": "and researchers are using them to identify Acr genes, but the function of the proteins they encode is not totally clear. The Acr-associated promoter produces high levels of Acr transcription just after the phage DNA injection into the bacteria takes place and, afterward, Aca proteins repress the transcription. If this wasn't repressed, the constant transcription of the gene would be lethal to the phage. Therefore, Aca activity is essential to ensure its survival. Phage-phage cooperation. Moreover, it has been verified that bacteria with CRISPR-Cas systems are still partially immune to Acr. Consequently, initial abortive phage infections may be unable to hamper CRISPR immunity, but phage-phage cooperation can increasingly boost Acr production and promote immunosuppression, which might produce an increase on the vulnerability of the host cell to reinfection, and finally allow a successful infection and spreading of a second phage. This cooperation creates an epidemiological tipping point, in which, depending on the initial density of Acr-phages and the strength of CRISPR/Acr binding, phages can either be eliminated or originate a phage epidemic (the number of bacteriophages is amplified). If the starting levels of phages are high enough, the density of immunosuppressed hosts reaches a critical point where there are more"}, {"text": "successful infections than unsuccessful ones. Then, an epidemic begins. If this point is not reached, phage extinction occurs, and immunosuppressed hosts recover their initial state. Phage immune evasion. It has become clear that Acr proteins play an important role in allowing phage immune evasion, though it is still unclear how anti-CRISPR proteins synthesis can overcome the host\u2019s CRISPR-Cas system, which can shatter the phage genome within minutes after the infection. Mechanisms. Within all the Anti-CRISPR proteins that have been discovered so far, mechanisms have been described for only 15 of among them. These mechanisms can be divided into three different types: crRNA loading interference, DNA binding blockage and DNA cleavage prevention. CrRNA loading interference. CrRNA (CRISPR RNA) loading interference mechanism has been mainly associated with the AcrIIC2 protein family. In order to block Cas9 activity, it prevents the correct assembly of the crRNA-Cas9 complex. DNA binding blockage. AcrIIC2 has been shown not to be the only one capable of blocking DNA binding. There are 11 other Acr family proteins that can also carry it out. Some among those are AcrIF1, AcrIF2, and AcrIF10, which act on different subunits of the Cascade effector complex of the type I-F CRISPR-Cas system, preventing"}, {"text": "the DNA to bind to the complex. Furthermore, AcrIIC3 prevents DNA binding by promoting dimerization of Cas9 and AcrIIA2 mimics DNA, thereby blocking the PAM recognition residues and consequently preventing dsDNA \"(double-stranded DNA)\" recognition and binding. DNA cleavage prevention. AcrE1, AcrIF3 and AcrIIC1 can prevent target DNA cleavage. Using X-ray crystallography, AcrE1 was discovered to bind to the CRISPR associated Cas3. Likewise, biochemical and structural analysis of AcrIF3 showed its capacity of binding to Cas3 as a dimer so as to prevent the recruitment of Cas3 to the Cascade complex. Finally, thanks to biochemical and structural AcrIIC1 studies, it was found that it binds to the active site of the HNH endonuclease domain in Cas9, which prevents DNA from cleaving. Thus, it turns Cas9 into an inactive but DNA bound state. Applications. Reducing CRISPR-Cas9 off-target cuts. AcrIIA4 is one of the proteins responsible for the CRISPR-Cas9 system inhibition, the mechanism used in mammalian cells edition. Addition of AcrIIA4 in human cells avoids Cas9 interaction with the CRISPR system, reducing its ability to cut DNA. However, diverse studies have reached the conclusion that adding it in small proportions after the genome editing has been done, reduces the number of off-target cuts"}, {"text": "at the concrete sites in which Cas9 interacts, a thing that makes the whole system much more precise. Avoiding ecological consequences. One of the main objectives of using CRISPR-Cas9 technology is eradicating diseases, some of which are found in disease vectors, such as mosquitoes. Anti-CRISPR proteins can impede gene drive, which could create uncertain and catastrophic consequences in ecosystems. Detect presence of Cas9 in a sample. In order to know whether a certain bacterium synthesises Cas9, and therefore uses CRISPR-Cas9, or to detect accidental or not allowed use of this system, AcrIIC1 can be used. As the aforementioned protein binds to Cas9, a centrifugal microfluidic platform has been designed to detect it and determine its catalytic activity. Phage therapy. Antibiotic resistance is a public health problem that is constantly increasing, because of the bad use of antibiotics. Phage therapy consists of the infection of bacteria using phages, which are much more specific and cause less side effects than antibiotics. Acrs could inhibit the CRISPR-Cas9 system of some bacteria and allow these phages to infect bacterial cells without being attacked by its immune system."}, {"text": "Kongkham Robindro Singh is a Bharatiya Janata Party politician from Manipur.

Publication history. With the exception of the pieces \"Siddhantasara\", \"Pranavinimay\", \"Kanta\", and \"Nrusinhavatar\", most of Manilal's prose writings and poems were published in his two journals, \"Priyamvada\" and \"Sudarshan\". The works \"Gulabsinh\", \"Shrimad Bhagvadgita\" (translated from Sanskrit), and \"Atmanimajjan\" (a collection of poems) were originally published in installments in his journals. They were later published in book form, during the author's lifetime. Several of Manilal's most important articles from these journals remained unpublished in book form until 1909. In that year, two of his admirers, Himmatlal Chhotalal Pandya and Pranshankar Gaurishankar Joshi, working from Jambusar, a small town in Gujarat, collected, classified and published the articles as \"Sudarshan Gadyawali\" with the help of Anandshankar Dhruv, a Gujarati writer and Manilal's disciple-friend.

According to Manilal, an \"ideal essay\" is one in which each word conveys a concrete image of experience, each sentence presents an orderly arrangement of thought, and each thought is of such living interest and significance that it immediately grips the reader's attention.

The Dutch naval plan 1855 stated that the steam corvette of 250 hp and 12 30-pounders (the Groningen-class corvettes) would be the standard warship for the Dutch East Indies. However, the plan also recognized that in the East Indies, there were 'too many points to occupy, too many seas to patrol, and too many corners to penetrate' to use only these still costly ships. The plan 1855 therefore specified a second type of ships for the indies: the sloop of 100 hp. Regular service in the East Indies required 12 such sloops. The West Indies three more, and 2 were required for replacement. In total 17 sloops would be required in peace time, and 20 in times of war. Dutch rating system. In Dutch the \"Vesuvius\" class was known as a class of 'schroefstoomschepen'. The Dutch navy referred to them as 'schroefstoomschip' of a certain class, i.e. 1-4th class, but this classification varied.

In Dutch the lead ship Vesuvius (as well as the Bali, Soembing and Montrado) were first called schooners, or even schroefstoomschooner. In the English Navy warships of a comparable size were called sloops. Design. The \"Montrado\" had introduced screw propulsion on small navy ships. She did very well, but authorities in the Indies wanted to have more cargo space in the ships, and more power, so they could use them for transport duties. Therefore, the Bali was made, but she was not able to mount heavy guns, and therefore could only be used in the colonies. The Vesuvius was designed to have more steam power, more cargo space, and to be able to mount a heavy battery. The other 5 ships were built to this model. The displacement of the Vesuvius class was about half that of the \"Groningen\" class. The design was made by L.K. Turk in Vlissingen. Machinery. According to the plan 1855 the class would have 100 hp, but this became 119 hp. In fact it became 250 ihp, giving the ships a speed of 7 knots. Sails.

The Cornelis Dirks and Het Loo then had 2 16 cm RML and 4 medium 30-pounders. Ships of the size and role of the Vesuvius were never armored, not even in the early twentieth century. Therefore, the appearance of the French ironclad Gloire in August 1860 did not mean that the Vesuvius class became obsolete. Ships in the class.

This would lead to the conclusion that the \"Vesuvius\" was a ship like the \"Apeldoorn\" and the \"Vecht\" in the same table. The note above the table \"(the sizes etc. in this table are an approximation)\" kind of indicates how the table was made. In reality there were always minor differences between the ships of a class.

In the table all fourth class screw ships got length 40.70 m, displacement 586t and 80 hp. Official publications give a power of 119 hp for the Vesuvius, so there is an error. The error in the table is in the classification of the Vesuvius as a Schroefstoomschip 4th class.

In his \"Verhandeling over de scheepsbouwkunde als wetenschap (1859)\" written at the time the Vesuvius was built, Tideman does give the correct dimensions: Length 43,0 m, beam 9.16 m, draught 3.46 m, 120 hp, displacement 651 cubic meters. Except for the displacement these exactly fit the other ships of the class in his later Memoriaal. Her captain Arntzenius noted that the ship had to pay the pilot in Jamaica according to the tonnage (Dutch tonnemaat, not displacement) range of 400-700 tons.
