Opinion: Inaccurate portrayals of Indian culture far too common Posted: Monday, October 1, 2012 "On Native Heritage American Day, it’s time to take a step back and realize what it would be like if our family’s past and struggles were of the same kind. In the past, people of our country kicked Native Americans out of their native lands, forced them to adapt to our standards and norms, and then used inaccurate portrayals of their society to represent items in the mass media. The images are all around us, especially with Native American Heritage Month and Thanksgiving closer than we anticipate. Look at butter, sports teams, alcohol and a number of other products. Native Americans are on labels dressed in clothing seen in “Pocahontas” or “Peter Pan.” Get the Story: Respect Native American symbols (The Macomb Western Courier 9/28) Join the Conversation

Do you know why slices of cold cucumbers placed on eyes help reduce puffiness? Cucumbers contain ascorbic acid and caffeic acid, two natural compounds that also help prevent water retention. Cucumbers—members of the watermelon, squash, pumpkin family—are loaded with vitamin C and fiber. They also provide vitamin A and magnesium. I often keep a jug of water in the refrigerator and load it with slices of lemon, cucumber, basil, and mint. Cukes are heat sensitive, so keep them refrigerated. If you are not buying organic cukes, make sure you peel them to remove pesticides and any waxy residue.

What Is Paleontology Paleontology or archaeology Paleontology is a science focused on plant and animal forms of life and to their traces through the ages. It covers a longer history than archaeology; starting with it's first traces 3,5 billion years ago. Archaeology studies humans and their traces over the few millions years they have been there (more or less 4 millions). In some cases those two sciences cross each other when, for example, when we study fossils of animals parts which have been eaten by man or human lineage ancestry.


United States military aircraft designation systems The United States Military Aircraft Designation System was first designed in 1919 when the US Army's Aeronautical Division became the United States Army Air Service.

Coyotes are a species of animal present in the Territories. Appearance and CharacteristicsEdit - Coyotes generally stick to the wild country outside of the Scent Border. Sometimes, however, they are driven into the Territories to search for food. Coyotes are bigger than foxes, yet smaller than wolves. They are clever omnivores, but strongly prefer meat and would gladly gobble up a town full of mice or simply snap up a stray mouse or two.

Creating a durability risk evaluation and management plan means determining the specific risks and challenges your home would face - starting with the climate zone where you are building and moving on to building lot particulars. Two neighbouring homes will face many similar issues, but may have greatly differing ones as well. This can be due to building design, sun exposure, soil conditions, material choices or even topography to name a few. Assessing and planning for durability issues helps create a home with the greatest chance of withstanding whatever nature can throw at it. Dowload the LEED for Homes Durability Evaluation Form. This is the same document as the checklist, all the forms you will need for a LEED project are accessible through tabs at the bottom of the spreadsheet.

COB (Children's Opportunity for Brilliance) Community COB is an educational Model that promotes "natural" learning styles that are in line with how the brain works and processes information. The Model taps into what motivates and engages students, providing them with the feedback and interactions necessary to reinforce learning and build upon their foundation. It is like the difference between allopathic (symptom focused) vs. naturopathic (holistic focused) medicine . COB acknowledges each child as an individual. COB acknowledges each family as having different needs. COB is made up of many components but only one philosophy, that every child is a brilliant learner.

In 1834 Agricultural Labourers in Tolpuddle England formed a union for the betterment of themselves and others. For this, they were transported to New South Wales. These men were feeling entrapped in poverty and subservience, and they recognised that they had to join together, to organise with each other, for each other, because they suffered equally. The concept of outside – and therefore superior – assistance was not the answer. The concept of leading others out of the desperate situation as if they themselves did not suffer as well was not the answer. They recognised the truth that they themselves were included – as activists and as beneficiaries and this is the doorway statement: OURSELVES INCLUDED.


Relationships of Ancient African Languages Almost all of the more than 1,000 African languages spoken today belong to just four families, Afroasiatic, Niger-Kordofanian, Nilo-Saharan, and Khoesan. Each family is relatively ancient, with its mother language, or protolanguage, spoken during the late Pleistocene. As these language families spread out across the continent in the early Holocene, they gradually drove out of use hundreds of other languages that used to be spoken in African. But in the late Pleistocene these mother languages were just four among many languages spoken in the continent. Only about three of those other languages survived in use down to the present. What were the relationships of these languages to the existing African families and to the language families of the rest of the world, and what can this information tell us about human origins and early human history?


Floods, droughts and other extreme weather events are speeding up the adoption of national climate change adaptation strategies, the European Environment Agency said on Tuesday. Extreme weather events are the most common trigger for adaptation responses, ahead of both EU policies and scientific research, the EEA found. As a result, adaptation in Europe tends to be restricted to reactive policies, the EEA warned. But half of the 30 mostly EU countries it surveyed reported a high or very high willingness to develop policies to adapt at national level. Please enter your details Not a subscriber?

Breast Cancer Self-Exam Tips Women 20 years of age and older should be proactive about detecting breast cancer. Follow the instructions below to examine your breasts. - Lying down, place a towel or pillow under your right shoulder and put your right hand behind your head. Examine your right breast with your left hand. - With fingers flat, press in small circles to examine the entire breast. Use light, medium and firm pressure to feel the breast tissue in each spot. Repeat with left breast. Resting your arm on a firm surface, use the same circular motion to examine each underarm area. - If you notice any changes, swelling, discoloration, or abnormalities, contact your doctor for a clinical examination. Early detection is key to treating breast cancer effectively.


Precipitation is one of the factors that define a rainforest. This handout shows the average rainfall in Manaus, Brazil. Oceans and atmosphere currents, wind currents, and mountains play a role in the amount of rain that falls on tropical forests. The air over oceans is generally warmer than the air above the land just offshore. If winds move the moisture-laden air from the ocean to the cooler air above land, a rain-shower results. Even more rain will fall if the warm ocean air moves over the mountains, since air cools when it rises.


Ragged Automaton Disk The disk is filled by distorted pixels that show the evolutions of an elementary cellular automaton starting from three shifted versions of a common initial condition. These three evolutions are represented by red, green, and blue color channels, giving up to eight different colors. Up to six copies of the resulting pixel arrangements fill the disk. The coordinates of pixel corners are translated into polar coordinates and then squeezed into sectors by dividing their angular coordinates by . The exponent transforms the distance coordinates as .


What better work to celebrate Brexit’s victory than Nevil Shute’s 1957 ode to the power of collective determination, On the Beach? In 1963, the world is at peace. No wars, no riots, no arguments mar the calm in the Northern Hemisphere. This is because many of the 4700 nuclear weapons detonated during the thirty-seven day war that broke out in 1962 were cobalt-clad. Bathed in lethal radioisotopes, the Northern Hemisphere is innocent of life and all its complications. In Australian and the other nations of the Southern Hemisphere, life continues. But only for the moment: lethal fallout is slowly but inexorably spreading on the winds. Even as the book opens, northern Australia has been cleansed of life. By September 1963, everyone — everything — in southern Australia will as dead as the unfortunates in the north. This is the way the world ends Not with a bang but a whimper.


British scientists have unveiled a glowing bandage that not only treats wounds but destroys skin cancer cells with light. A flexible strip of plastic embedded with light-emitting diodes focuses a high-powered red light beam on tumors. When the light is absorbed by a special skin cream, cancer cells are killed. The laser bandage allows patients to receive treatment without having to submit to hours of inactivity under lights in a clinic or hospital. Polymertronics and Lumicure are two companies currently pursuing this general technology. The video above gives basic information about photodynamic therapy in cosmetic applications: The principle is the same for cancer treatment.


For this activity, you will need to turn to the poem 'The Charge of the Light Brigade' by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, which can be found in the Power and Conflict section of your Anthology. The poem tells the story of a brigade of 600 soldiers who rode on horseback into the “valley of death” for half a league (about one and a half miles). They were obeying a command to charge the enemy forces that had been seizing their guns. The 600 soldiers were assaulted by the shots of shells of canons in front and on both sides of them. Still, they rode courageously forward toward their own deaths: “Into the jaws of Death / Into the mouth of hell / Rode the six hundred.” The main themes of the poem include Conflict, Courage, Death and Duty. In the following questions, you will be asked about how these themes develop throughout the poem.


Situated on the road leading from Stockton to the Southern Mines, this town on the north bank of the Calaveras River was first called Dry Diggins at the dawn of the Gold Rush and served as a convenient waystation for freighters and mule teams. In the early 1850s, the town was renamed Jenny Lind, partly for pioneer Dr. John Y. Lind and partly for the far more famous singer Jenny Lind, though the Swedish Nightingale never set foot there. Placer mining prospered on the river, mainly by the area’s large Chinese population, for only a short time and in the early 1900s, gold dredging operations moved in until they diminished with World War II. Though Jenny Lind’s heyday is long past, a handful of buildings still stand as reminders of a rambunctious history. by Sal Manna, 2010


Male Left Anterior Placement of Ventriculostomy Catheter – No Text This exhibit illustrates the anterior insertion of a ventriculostomy catheter into the left brain ventricles. The ventriculostomy catheter is used to drain cerebrospinal fluid from the brain and reduce intracranial pressure. This can be used to relieve patients who have experienced swelling due to trauma or hydrocephalus. First, a hole is drilled in the frontal skull, allowing access to the brain. Then, the catheter is placed through the cerebrum, and into the ventricles to collect cerebrospinal fluid.

The North Canton City School District recently participated in a workshop designed to improve the way that discussions about math are held in the classroom. Eight NCCS teachers attended the workshop on Tuesday where instruction focused on ways to facilitate math discussions in the classroom. Teachers learned ways to help students talk about math at deep levels and to solve a problem in a variety of ways. The instructor, from North Carolina, explained different approaches teachers can build collaboration and conversation into K-12 math classrooms. Officials say the activities presented were designed to be successful for all students so that each child is able to learn at his or her appropriate level. Michaela Madison Reporting


The Oriental Skylark (Alauda gulgula), also known as the Oriental Lark or Small Skylark, is a species of skylark found in the Indian Subcontinent and Southeast Asia. Like other skylarks, it is found in open grassland - often near waterbodies - where it feeds on seeds and insects. These skylarks frequently rocket up into the sky, fluttering and singing before descending down to earth. Male Oriental Skylarks may also hover in the air and sing, in order to attract a mate. Oriental Skylarks are about 16 cm long. They have streaked, yellow-brown upper plumage, with white outer tail feathers and a short crest. Both sexes are similar. Quelle: Wikipedia


There are many uplifting events in the written history of mankind. There are also records of human suffering on a vast scale. The events, both good and bad, are not limited to any culture or location. Some of them were caused by natural disasters. Hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes have created a vast amount of human suffering. People have lost their homes, their livelihoods and their families in natural disasters. They have been forced to leave loved ones to find work or relocated when an area was no longer viable. Artists have depicted these tragedies in many different mediums. Paintings, sculptures and ceramics have all shown the sufferings of mankind.

Only 5,000 viral types have been identified, while millions of types are thought to exist. As virus enter the host, they release a small piece of genetic material which forces the cell to replicate, and the virus multiplies. Not only a virus destroys the cells but also it can change the function of the cell. Some of the hazardous viruses include human papillomavirus (HPV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and etc. Antiviral medications help in some cases where Antibiotics are not effective against viruses.

For years, The Ivey has been preparing for a progressive increase in families needing support — and for good reason. A new study suggests that Alzheimer’s disease begins destroying the brain years before mental deterioration is detected. This finding means there could be twice the number of people with the neurodegenerative disease in the United States — and worldwide — as currently believed. In the study, cognitively normal individuals who had elevated levels of a toxic brain protein called amyloid experienced more rapid declines in thinking than those with normal levels. The study adds to evidence that Alzheimer’s actually begins years before symptoms appear.

Each child grieves the death of a significant person in his or her own way. While many children adjust well after a death, other children have ongoing difficulties that interfere with everyday life and make it difficult to recall positive memories of their loved ones. A child may have a traumatic reaction after a death that was sudden and unexpected (e.g., through violence or an accident) or a death that was anticipated (e.g., due to illness). If the child’s responses are severe or prolonged and interfere with his or her functioning, the child maybe experiencing Childhood Traumatic Grief. Childhood Traumatic Grief is a condition in which children develop significant trauma symptoms related to the death of an attachment figure (e.g., parent or sibling) or another important person (e. The following resources on Traumatic Grief were developed by the NCTSN.

Lynn Steen in The Science of Patterns says, I think Mathematics is the science of pattern too. I have a 10 years old student which is weak in mathematics. It seems he can do arithmetic(addition, multiplication, ...) but cannot understand the meaning of problems and their relation to real word. I want to help him to rebuild foundation of his mathematics and promote his creativity and attention to real world. Now with respect to the role of patterns in mathematics, I want to start with them. Do you know free (probably online) resources like PDF files which have much exercises in various flavors or have ideas for me to make them? I know I can build exercises by paying attention to the world, but the time is important for me and it is better to use ideas of other peoples. Also my approach is to hold enjoyment and so, games have advantage.

Annenberg Study Reinforces Value of Public Television-Based Intervention in Promoting Early Literacy An award-winning children’s PBS KIDS program, Between the Lions, when combined with teachers who are equipped with curriculum materials and who have received training, has consistently demonstrated its effectiveness in developing better reading skills for preschool children. That is one result of an ongoing analysis of the Federally-funded “Ready to Learn” program, by the University of Pennsylvania’s Annenberg School for Communication. The School’s Children and Media Lab has measured reading and literacy skills of public school students who participated in a program based classroom intervention using Between the Lions, related curriculum materials, and teachers who were trained to use the coursework.

Why are our kauri dying? Dieback is a deadly disease killing our kauri. Microscopic spores in the soil infect the roots and damage the tissues that carry nutrients to the tree, effectively starving the kauri to death. These spores spread with soil movement and it only takes a minute number to create a new area of disease. Once infected, the kauri face a slow demise and without a voice, they die in silence. While scientists are working to find controls for the disease, there is no known treatment at this time. Infected trees will bleed gum at the base of the trunk as they attempt to fight the disease. In collaboration with a group of partners, we have used these tears as a way to let one kauri communicate its pain.


Most humans experience bouts of sadness from time-to-time. These periods are usually defined by a clear even or series of events, such as absence of a close friend or family member, loss, divorce, financial trouble, failing a test, or not getting a job. (This list is not inclusive.) When sadness is experienced, usually there is some relief associated with talking through the issue, venting or crying, and is usually able to be resolved in time. Others experience pervasive sadness or depression, which has an overpowering effect on many parts of a person's life. In extreme cases, this can lead to harming oneself or others, suicide ideation, or worse. Anyone who is experiencing extreme sadness or depression should seek proper medical attention. The resources here are designed to provide tools, strategies, and help teach coping skills for those who need less intensive support.


When hiding out in air-conditioned comfort during the dog days of summer, planting a vegetable garden may be the last thing on your mind.

On Air Now In Conversation With Steve Allen 9pm - 10pm 8 January 2019, 15:27 Why do we say that clocks go clockwise and why is that right to left? Name: Stuart from Dover Answer: It is all to do with the direction the shadow goes round on a sundial, which is from right to left. When making clocks, clock makers copy sundials and so clocks go round clockwise too.


Return to ENVRI Community Home Scientific observations and the related technologies are the foundation of many Environmental Research Infrastructures. The diverse members of the ENVRI community use a large variety of technologies, measuring parameters ranging from atmospheric concentration of trace gases through metabolomics to detect biodiversity and deep ocean salinity to Earth crust motions. However, the numerous technologies available rely on a few fundamental physical principles and have several technical aspects in common. Ample opportunity for collaborative work across disciplines exists. The goal is to ensure common development and application efforts and generate innovation that is not possibly achieved by single Research Infrastructure.

As part of an Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research funded project, we developed three place-based, dual language picture books to help women farmers in Papua New Guinea remember important marketing, budgeting and saving lessons and engage in early learning with their children. These women farmers wanted to help their children succeed at school but felt they were unable to do so due to their own lack of schooling or literacy skills. We assured the mothers they could help their children by talking with them about the books. The Maria books have been very successful with village community educators, teachers and students alike.

Ovarian cancer occurs when cells in one or both ovaries grow abnormally and become cancerous tumours. This cancer can be hard to diagnose as symptoms are often dismissed or attributed to other issues. Ovarian cancer is the fifth most common cancer in Singapore.1 Ovarian cancer can be one of three types: 1 - Epithelial– Most ovarian cancers arise from the surface epithelium of the ovary - Germ cell – These tumours occur in egg producing cells of the ovary - Stromal tumour – These develop in the oestrogen and progesterone producing tissue that holds the ovary together


what are the characteristics of proteins that are important for their use as medicines? - 1 decade agoFavorite Answer I am not sure what you mean by using them for medicines. Proteins are important as sources of amino acids that the body uses to build and repair tissue. When the body needs energy, it can break proteins down to glucose, which is then used for energy. If too many proteins are eaten, and the body does not need them for building and repairing tissue, they are broken down in the liver, the nitrogen is taken off and sent to the kidneys for elimination, and the part that is left is turned to fat and then stored. I hope this answer is what you were looking for. Lenore Hodges, PhD, RD


Pearl S. Buck (1892-1973) is remembered for her many international literary prizes as well as her activism.

In 1924, the first soviet coins were introduced: bronze coins from 1 to 5 kopecks, and silver coins of 10 to 50 kopecks and of 1 ruble. The coins all depicted the coat of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (in short USSR). It shows a hammer and a sickle, symbolizing the workers and the farmers. The background is a globe, for the Communist Party of Russia dreamed of the world revolution. A wreath of ears surrounds those emblems – the ears being a symbol for crop growing. The inscription reads: "Proletarii wsech stran, sojedinjaites!" (Proletarians of all countries, unite!).


Grab your goodies! Virtual bag of tools and tips for you to measure and increase your Emotional Intelligence Emotional Intelligence, referred to as EQ (Emotional Quotient) is a set of emotional and social skills that influence the way we perceive and express ourselves, engage socially, and navigate challenges. Emotional Intelligence is not a basis for being “emotional” but our ability to effectively identify and manage our emotions and the emotions of others as a means to favorable outcomes. Simplified, EQ is your awareness of: Knowing how you feel and the emotions you are experiencing How you communicate your emotions How you perceive others feelings and emotions How you respond to those emotions


Founded in 1326 by Carthusian monks, the Allerengelberg Monastery forms a dramatic backdrop to the picturesque village of Monte S. Caterina/Katharinaberg in Schnalstal Valley. The monks inhabited its walls in peace and seclusion for over 400 years. With the advent of secularization under Joseph II, the Carthusian abbey in the Schnalstal Valley was closed in 1782 and the buildings converted into living quarters. The former Carthusian abbey has remained intact and is open to visitors year round. In the summer, guided tours of the monastery are offered. The Silentium Project in the village of Certosa/Karthaus is dedicated to the concept of silence in keeping with the peaceful atmosphere. Art exhibitions are sometimes held in the old cloister, and a contemplative walk known as the Via Monachorum leads to the former abbey.

Permanent teeth are the set of teeth which replace the Deciduous teeth, the permanent teeth are more in number and are comparatively larger than the deciduous teeth. These are called the Permanent teeth because these are the last teeth to erupt and there will be no new growth of teeth in the oral cavity after these teeth are lost. There are a total of 32 permanent teeth present in the oral cavity of an adult human being, There are - Incissors – 8 - Canines – 4 - Premolars – 8 - Molars – 12 To know the positioning of the teeth look at the picture given in the post.


Execute experiment in different environment Currently, when executing an experiment on a local machine, the current environment is used and therefor must contain all the packages needed. This is sub-optimal as several different experiences might required different sets of packages. While this can't be done with the local executor, it can be implemented using the subprocess executor. The subprocess executor makes call to the scripts needed to run the algorithms/databases processes as would be with the docker executor. This fact can be used to run the scripts from another environment and thus will use the packages available there. This will also simplify the creation of new execution environment and their transition do docker images.

Corona Plots were developed by Dr. John Elder to instantly visualize the effect of selecting stocks for an investment portfolio according to all possible linear weightings of two features of the stocks. A Corona Plot illustrates the return of the top-scoring stocks (say top 10%) when the score comes from the relative weighting of the features given by the angle along the circle. The baseline, or return of all the stocks, is represented by the black circle, so greater portfolio returns appear outside the circle, and lesser ones inside. For instance, the 45-degree point along the circle would represent the result of choosing a decile of stocks according to a score which is an average between the two features. Relative returns are also colored by a temperature-like scale where red is the best and blue the worst.


Answers 1Add Yours The destination of all the pilgrims is the shrine of Saint Thomas à Becket (1118?-1170) in Canterbury Cathedral, in which he was entombed after he was murdered in the church on December 29, 1170. He was both a martyr and a saint. I'm not sure that the Knight has a different motive than the others to go on this "holy pilgrimage". The real reason was actually not so much the destination than the trip itself. On their way thepilgrims ate much food, consumed copious amounts of alcahol and told the best stories ever!

ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta will soon add lessons about the South’s racist history on markers placed next to four historic monuments. Officials say the first of the panels could be installed as early as Friday. In Atlanta’s Piedmont Park, a 1911 Peace Monument commemorating post-Civil War reconciliation will get context noting that its inscription promotes a narrative centered on white veterans, while ignoring African Americans. Georgia law bars the removal of such monuments. Other states with laws protecting Confederate monuments include Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Atlanta History Center President and CEO Sheffield Hale says the project puts the city ahead of other communities grappling with what to do about their monuments. Hale says context provided by the markers will help people to have civil discussions based on facts.

Environmental Science (BS) Environmental Science is a multidisciplinary field designed to examine environmental problems and find solutions to them. All students begin with a core sequence of courses that provides a solid background in science. Students are expected to complete four terms of biology, four terms of general chemistry, a year of organic chemistry, and two courses each in physics and atmospheric science. Generally beginning the pre-junior year, students choose from a variety of electives in botany, terrestrial, and aquatic ecology, biodiversity and conservation, paleontology, and environmental health and toxicology. Additionally, students may elect to take electives in environmental policy and economics.


Submitted by Yanina Valdez, Argentina What is the difference between direct and indirect approaches to speaking? Professor Richards Responds: An indirect approach to the teaching of speaking is one in which oral competence is acquired incidentally as a bi-product of engaging in communicative tasks. No specific aspects of speaking may be targeted. A direct approach is one in which specific aspects of speaking (e.g. turn taking, back-channeling) are targeted through focused instruction directed at these features.

How The Ears Work Ever wondered how the ears work? The ear is made up of 3 parts – the outer ear, the middle ear and the inner ear. The outer ear funnels the sounds into the ear. This helps us to determine where any sound is coming from – above, below, behind etc. The middle ear contains the auditory canal (1 in the diagram). The inner ear is where the magic happens! The inner ear plays home to the cochlea (10 in the diagram) which is the piece of equipment that takes the vibrations that have travelled along the auditory canal and converts them into electrical impulses which it sends to the brain.

Cucumber is a software tool used by computer programmers for testing other software. It runs automated acceptance tests written in a behavior-driven development style. Central to the Cucumber BDD approach is its plain language parser called Gherkin. It allows expected software behaviors to be specified in a logical language that customers can understand. As such, Cucumber allows the execution of feature documentation written in business-facing text. Capybara, which is a part of the Cucumber testing framework, is an example of a web based test automation software.


During the breeding season, the great hornbills become very vocal. They make loud duets, beginning with a loud ‘kok’ given about once a second by the mate, to which the female joins in. They form monogamous pair bonds and live in small groups of 2-40 individuals. The female hornbill builds a nest in the hollow of a large tree trunk, sealing the opening with a plaster made up mainly of feces. In Khao Sok it has been recorder that they also make their nests in small cliff cavities (the only place they are recorder to do so). She remains imprisoned there, relying on the male to bring her food, until the chicks are half develop. The clutch consists of one or two eggs which she incubates for 38-40 days. They are long-lived, living for nearly 50 years in captivity.


The roots of this word can be found in the Germanic languages. It is similar in Old English, Old Norse and Old German. In all cases, it is defined as wer (man) and geld (payment) (See Merriam Webster and DWDS (German Dictionary). Compare to modern Dutch: it still uses the term geld for payment. This early medieval payment (or compensation) is made to avoid bloodfeud when a crime has been committed. The price is dependent on a victims’ rank in society. During Anglo-Saxon times this agreement was turned into a law (See Oxford Reference and Britannica).


From Urban Village to Rural City Urban villages have always been seen as the urban slum in the Chinese context, which in fact were the epitome and consequence of the rapid urbanisation in China. Migrant workers, a special group of population who live in the urban village with rural background come to be the driving forces behind the cities' development. However, the socio-economical struggle and class differences lead to a collapse of Chinese urbanisation, and urban villages were forced to seek a new transformation and sustainable development under such circumstances. The project tries to revert the lost of farmland during urbanisation back to the city, and try to seek a post rural solution to new Chinese urbanism. Architecture works as a framework to re-regulate the informality and providing a transient during this process.


LUN masking is a further constraint added to LUN zoning to ensure that only devices authorized to access a specific server can access the corresponding port. A logical unit number (LUN) is a unique identifier that designates individual hard disk devices or grouped devices for address by a protocol associated with a SCSI, iSCSI, Fibre Channel (FC) or similar interface. LUNs are central to the management of block storage arrays shared over a storage area network (SAN). LUN masking subdivides access to a given port. Then, even if several LUNs are accessed through the same port, the server masks can be set to limit each server's access to the appropriate LUNs. LUN masking is typically conducted at the host bus adapter (HBA) or switch level.


Sky watchers could catch a dazzling treat on Tuesday and Wednesday, with the peak of the annual Perseid meteor shower. Meteors are bits of dust or rock that collide with Earth’s atmosphere and heat up gas particles to produce a glowing trail. A handful of meteors can be seen each hour on any clear night, but during a meteor shower dozens may be visible. The Perseid shower is expected to reach its peak at 12:30 a.m. CDT on 12 August, but dozens of meteors per hour should be visible on the nights preceding and following the peak. Let us know if you catch nature’s show.

This is why memo and lotto games are essential to support a child's cognitive development by sharpening their observational skills.


For the Orchestra review lesson, I begin by meeting the students in the hallway and explain that every student will receive a card with an instrument on it. I have divided the board into 4 sections, labeled with the 4 families. Students must stick their cards on the board in the correct families (there is a small magnet on the back of each card). Orchestra flashcards here. I use the PowerPoint below to explain all of the instruments (This is review from previous years). Then I assess their knowledge.

The Old Testament Books of Chronicles contain some of the most neglected passages in all of Scripture. Understanding their message can be a difficult and daunting task for the modern reader. Patrick Reardon brings these important books to life, unfolding their powerful message for our own day. Like any family history, the story of Chronicles is told with a distinct purpose in mind. It asks the question: 'What was the real and lasting significance of King David and his house?' Beginning with the long list of names of the first chapter, this heritage is revealed in cosmic significance. It has in fact become the family tree of every true believer.


A wharf is a facility that connects ships with land to load and unload cargos. Regarding wharf structures, there are gravity types, sheet pile types and cell types etc. We introduce the building process of sheet pile type here. Drive many piles made of sand into the seabed to make the underwater soil firm and strong. Dig the seabed to a specific depth and drive iron piles called “Yaita” on the sea floor. Drive piles behind Yaita and pull the Yaita with steel bars to support. Pour earth and sand behind the Yaita and compact them. Pave the surface and equip with mooring posts, etc. to complete the wharf. *1 : Sometimes it starts with . *2 : In , sometimes steel cables are used instead of steel bars.


Protruding ears frequently cause psychological problems in young children, despite efforts to camouflage them with longer hair styles. Incisions are made on the skin at the back of the ear so they are not seen. Portions of cartilage are removed and the remainer remolded as necessary to achieve the desired contour. Since both ears are rarely alike, ideal symmetry is not always possible. The previously mentioned risks of infection and bleeding are very unusual.


Book on inventors and inventions associations The following book on inventors and inventions associations , inventor’s organizations, their contribution to the promotion of innovative culture, and their combination of cultural knowledge with innovative knowledge have been written by Dr. Farag Moussa, IFIA previous president and current honorary president. IFIA Books comprise a part of IFIA publication aiming to broaden public understanding about innovation and expand creative thinking among the grassroots. The books include illustrations of the work of cartoonists and a collection of stamps portraying the male and female inventors. Moreover, a series of books have been published in various languages shedding light on the contributions the women inventors have made to the advancement of technology across the globe.


TIPS FOR MEASURING CRITICAL CONSCIOUSNESS AND BODILY INTEGRITY - Use flexible and qualitative indicators to collect data on critical consciousness. It is crucial that they are informed by women and girls’ realities and desires, and can capture unanticipated changes over time. - Use the WHO indicators when measuring violence against women as they are considered best-practice. - Adhere to specific ethical and safety standards when measuring issues related to bodily integrity, especially violence against women and girls.

Interesting take on Sugar and cancer Interesting news that reducing sugar doesn’t directly affect cancer! The authors state: There is no proof that starving the body of sugar lowers a person's risk of developing cancer or that it improves the chances of survival should they be diagnosed with the disease. There is an indirect link between reduced dietary sugar and lower cancer risk that comes through tackling obesity. High intakes of dietary sugar raise the risk of obesity, which, in turn, raises the risk of cancer. "A lot of people," says senior study author Leonard W. Seymour, a professor of gene therapies in the university's oncology department, "think that carbohydrates are bad, but that's not the case — we need them, and cutting out sugar won't cure cancer."


A longwall miner (or longwall shearer) is a huge deep mining machine used in underground coal mining. The longwall miner pulls a steel plow or rotating drum back-and-forth across a long face of coal. The sheared coal then falls onto a conveyor for removal from the mine. The longwall miner has a hydraulically operated re-inforced steel canopy which holds up the mines roof and protects the miners. As the longwall miner cuts deeper into the coal seam , the shield advances allowing the unsupported roof to collapse behind the cut, often causing subsidence above ground. A typical longwall miner can have a capacity of up to 2,000 tons of coal per hour. To view a photo of a longwall miner see:


Accessing Justice: Models, Strategies and Best Practices on Women's Empowerment The law is an essential tool for advancing women’s and girls’ rights and equality. A robust and effective legal system based on the rule of law is central to assisting women to become equal partners in decision-making and development. Over the last couple of decades, the international community has invested substantially in programs aimed at strengthening the rule of law in developing countries. Despite this investment, the rule of law continues to mean very little for the vast majority of women and girls.


Oxygen analyzers are used for measuring the concentration of oxygen. Based on the detection methods, there are two types of oxygen analyzers: zirconia oxygen analyzers and paramagnetic oxygen analyzers. Zirconia oxygen analyzers are a direct method of measuring oxygen. Zirconia starts out with a room temperature resistance as high as one trillion ohms/cm. In a paramagnetic oxygen analyzer (indirect method), oxygen is considered as a paramagnetic material. In oxygen analyzers, the measurement principle is based on the strength of the magnetic properties of oxygen molecules. Oxygen analyzers are useful for the prevention of air pollution, conservation of energy, and safety management; they also find application in other quality control systems.

Iodine is an essential mineral needed for the production of thyroid hormones. It is a trace element that is found in high amounts in sea vegetables such as kelp and in small amounts in cranberries, potatoes, some fish, eggs and milk. Iodine contributes to numerous biological functions in the body including normal cognitive function, normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system and production of thyroid hormones and normal thyroid function. Iodine is particularly important for pregnant and breast feeding women. The thyroid gland is responsible for a range of important functions in our body, controlling our metabolism, growth and development. It produces several important hormones including thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) both of which are made up of molecules of tyrosine and iodine.

Teaching the subject to an older child may be a bit more difficult. There are many math problems out there that can be used to bring it down to their level. Using this subject in an everyday situation is a one idea. For example, tell a story that involves that child. If he goes to the store and buys a gallon of milk with a five dollar bill and the milk is only three dollars, how much money will he have left? Using word problems will help the child understand it more. Nowadays, a lot of people are too dependent on calculators. Maybe because when they were young, they find math boring. We just need to teach our kids interesting and fun way in dealing with math. Math can be fun especially when you look at math in a completely different way.


One of the popular exercises when learning a new language is to develop a FizzBuzz program. This is where you print out the all the numbers from 1 to 100 except if a number is a multiple of 3 you print out Fizz and if the number is a multiple of 5 you print out Buzz. If a number is a multiple of both 3 and 5 then you print out FizzBuzz. I came across this challenge for the first time recently as I learn C# so here is my version of FizzBuzz written in PL/SQL. DECLARE fizz BOOLEAN := FALSE; buzz BOOLEAN := FALSE; BEGIN FOR i IN 1 .. 100 LOOP fizz := MOD(i, 3) = 0; buzz := MOD(i, 5) = 0; CASE WHEN fizz AND buzz THEN dbms_output.put_line('FizzBuzz'); WHEN fizz THEN dbms_output.put_line('Fizz'); WHEN buzz THEN dbms_output.put_line('Buzz'); ELSE dbms_output.put_line(i); END CASE; END LOOP; END;

About This Project The Yellow-bellied glider (YBG) is a unique animal that glides between trees of woodlands in North-eastern Australia which are threatened by grazing and logging. Since their population sizes are unknown, we can’t push for habitat conservation. Because YBG are very vocal, we may be able to use their calls to distinguish between individuals to determine how many are around. We will do this by developing mobile mini labs that record and analyze calls but can also take photos with infrared cameras.


Jonathan Wilkins, marketing director of obsolete parts supplier, EU Automation discusses technologies that are revolutionising healthcare in the 21st century Doctor Crawford W. Long conducted the first surgical operation under anaesthetic in 1841 in Jefferson, Georgia. In 1841, general anaesthetic had not yet been invented, so Dr Long used diethyl ether, a chemical most commonly used to start internal combustion engines, in its place. The surgeon pressed an ether-soaked towel to the patient’s face to put him to sleep before removing a tumour from his neck. He billed the patient two dollars for the whole procedure.

Evolutionists now increasingly believe that major adaptations are driven by neutral mutations. In a previous article I described the evidence that cooption faces insurmountable mathematical challenges in explaining the origins of such complex molecular machines as the bacterial flagellum. This line of argumentation only appears compelling to those who assume from that start that the core assumptions of the standard evolutionary model are true. The evidence commonly cited to argue for evolution’s ability to drive large-scale transformations is almost always circular. A biologist in our network worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Harvard. He recounted how about a quarter of the postdocs he encountered were at least sympathetic to design arguments.

10/14: ACRU Chairman and CEO Susan Carleson explains how the actions of General Robert E. Lee brought about reconciliation in divided times and what we can learn from his example. Confederate generals were fighting for independence from the Union just as George Washington and other generals fought for independence from Great Britain. Most Americans believe the Civil War was initiated to free slaves, when in truth, freeing slaves was little more than an afterthought. We call the war of 1861 the Civil War. But is that right? Because states cannot secede, the federal government can run roughshod over the U.S. Constitution's limitations of the Ninth and Tenth Amendments.


The theme of this song was popular in the late eighteenth century when similar songs were printed, some of them full of sexual imagery. This one, in which the maiden is occasionally fifteen years old, was much printed on broadsides in England for more than a century. There are 9 stanzas in the broadside version (e.g., Bodleian Ballads website, Harding B11 (2338)). The song lasted well into the twentieth century as numerous celebrated recordings testify. It was popular in the oral tradition and latterly on the folk scene.


Composed during a critical time in the evolution of European intellectual life, the works of Meister Eckhart (c. 1260-1327) are some of the most powerful medieval attempts to achieve a synthesis between ancient Greek thought and the Christian faith. Writing with great rhetorical brilliance, Eckhart combines the neoplatonic concept of oneness - the idea that the ultimate principle of the universe is single and undivided - with his Christian belief in the Trinity, and considers the struggle to describe a perfect God through the imperfect medium of language. Fusing philosophy and religion with vivid originality and metaphysical passion, these works have intrigued and inspired philosophers and theologians from Hegel to Heidegger and beyond.

Adaptive Optics and SPHERE This animation shows the Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast Exoplanet REsearch (SPHERE) instrument. An instrument on ESO's Very Large Telescope with the primary objective of discovering and studying extrasolar giant planets orbiting nearby stars. It demonstrates adaptive optics, a process used to take out the atmosphere's blurring effect as much as possible and bring most of the light from a star together into one bright dot. The centre of this bright dot is then blocked out by introducing a mask into the light beam to avoid swamping the fainter nearby objects.Credit: ESO/L.

Your company has two main offices. The offices are located in London and Seattle. All servers run Windows Server 2016. In the Seattle office, you have a Distributed File System (DFS) server named FS1. FS1 has a folder named Folder1 that contains large Windows image files. In the London office, you deploy a DFS server named FS2, and you then replicate Folder1 to FS2. After several days, you discover that the replication of certain files failed to complete. You need to ensure that all of the files in Folder1 can replicate to FS2. What should you do? A . Modify the disk quota of the drive that contains Folder1. B . From a command prompt, run dfsutil /purgemupcache. C . Create a quota for Folder1 by using File Server Resource Manager (FSRM). D . Modify the size of staging area of Folder1.


Getting that beach sand off of you is going to be a little more difficult going forward. California has shut down all outdoor showers at state beaches because of the drought. By doing so, the state expects to save up to 18 million gallons of water a year. California officials estimate that the rinse stations are used approximately 15 million times each year — with the average rinse using of 1.2 gallons of water. “I think every Californian understands the effect of the drought,” Garratt Aitchison, acting director of the department’s San Diego Coast District, told The San Diego Union Tribune. In searching for ways to conserve “our first course of action was to take a look at our outdoor showers, because it’s not so much a health and safety cutback — it’s one of convenience,” he said.
