It was smashed slightly and in very bad condition. Extensive conservation was required in order to stabilize it and recover its shape. The cheekpieces are missing from this example. brass rivets from 44PG302


complement defined in 1951 yearcomplement - complement; complement - A group of substances, normally present in the blood of vertebrates, which takes an essential part in the lethal action (lysis) of antibody on bacteria and other cells. Activity is rapidly destroyed by heat. Complement often disappears from serum in which an antigen-antibody reaction has occurred: this 'complement-fixation' can be used to test for presence of an antigen or an antibody, and is basis of Wasserman test for syphilis. near complement in Knolik definition of word "complement" was readed 933 times


Based on the work of Fiske Center Archaeologists, Joe Bagley (The Boston City Archaeologist) was able to recreate the outside edge of the tank that burst and caused the Molasses Flood disaster. Joe asked folks to stand along that circle during the ceremony of remembrance. This happened at 10:30 AM on Tuesday January 15, 2019 at Langone Park, marking 100 years since the Great Molasses Flood. John Steinberg, Melissa Ritchey, & Jocelyn Lee represented the Fiske Center and demonstrated how the GPR worked after the ceremony. (update Jan 16, 2019) The event received some press coverage: An article by Emily Sweeney in the Boston Globe — Boston officials remember the Great Molasses Flood, 100 years later An article by Matt Conti in the North End Waterfront – Human Circle Commemorates 100th Anniversary of Great Molasses Flood


You are here Waxing Promising Practices Fact Sheet Waxing can draw blood and body fluid from the skin. If this occurs, there is a potential to transmit viral, bacterial, and fungal infections between the technician and the client, as well as between clients. Folliculitis (infection of the hair follicle), irritant dermatitis, contact dermatitis, and general skin irritation can also occur. These health risks can be minimized by using proper infection control techniques and hygiene procedures. |Publication Date||Sep 14, 2010| |Posted by NCCEH||Sep 15, 2010|


Oyster is the common name for a number of different families of salt-water bivalve molluscs that live in marine or brackish habitats. In some species, the valves are highly calcified, and many are somewhat irregular in shape. Many, but not all, oysters are in the superfamily Ostreoidea. Some types of oysters are commonly consumed cooked or raw, and in some locales are regarded as a delicacy. Some types of pearl oysters are harvested for the pearl produced within the mantle. Windowpane oysters are harvested for their translucent shells, which are used to make various kinds of decorative objects.


Assessing ecosystem responses and socio-economic impacts of altered and free-flowing rivers This Royal Norwegian Embassy-funded project continued ATREE’s work in the Aghnashini, Son and the Bedthi basins. The project, which is also supported by the Government of Madhya Pradesh and the Ministry of Earth Sciences, Government of India, aims to estimate the ecological flows in the Son Gharial Sanctuary (Son basin), Madhya Pradesh. The project will evaluate the effects of hydropower projects on fish population and conduct hydrological and water quality monitoring in the Aghnashini basin. The project conducted the first-ever study of recovery of fish species below hydrologic barriers in the Western Ghats. This is the first study on ecosystem services and fish response of estuarine ecosystems and river to upstream flows of fresh water in Aghanashini basin.

Formulas For Now Contribution: Contribution: A Pamphlet against Formulas, by Markus Miessen & Shumon Basar Edited by Hans Ulrich Obrist Imaginative formulas for negotiating contemporary life from an eminent group of artistic and scientific minds. For centuries the formula has been one of the building blocks of human knowledge. In mathematics and science, formulas express information symbolically—to solve a problem, to describe an observable phenomenon, or to postulate a theory. More generally, a formula can be a plan of action; a statement or declaration; a definition or rule; or a list of ingredients or recipe to achieve a desired outcome.


Displaying 1 - 1 of 1 Cognitive-behavioral approaches to alcohol and drug use disorders have received considerable empirical support over the past 20 years. One cognitive-behavioral treatment, relapse prevention, was initially designed as an adjunct to existing treatments. It has also been extensively used as a stand-alone treatment and serves as the basis for several other cognitive and behavioral treatments. After a brief review of relapse prevention, as well as the hypothesized mechanisms of change in cognitive and behavioral treatments, we will describe a "new" approach to alcohol and drug problems called mindfulness-based relapse prevention. Preliminary data in support of mindfulness-meditation as a treatment for addictive behavior are provided and directions for future research are discussed.


A stepper motor may be wired in either series or parallel, depending on the needs of the application. A series-wired motor will deliver more stall torque, but torque drops quickly as velocity increases. A parallel-wired motor typically maintains its (lower-than-series) torque to a higher velocity. Parallel wiring gives 1/4 the resistance and inductance of series wiring, resulting in more current, and therefore more heat generated. Therefore, we recommend that whenever you wire a motor in parallel, you limit its duty cycle to 50%, and engage Auto-Standby on the drive. This allows the motor to cool off between runs. The motor case temperature must always be kept below 100°C. If the motor is rising above 80°C, do something to prevent it from reaching 100C: attach a heat sink, lower the duty cycle, lower the current, etc. Heat sinks are usually the best way to effectively cool a motor.


Filer Guide for Hand-Saws, How to make — by ‘Mikhandmaker’. It’s up to you to make the necessary angular adjustments. Visually aligning the file to the guide’s end will ensure a straight sharpening system. This will also cause retraction without dragging the file. Remember that the filer guide only works forward. When sharpening, the force needs to go forward. This will help you avoid any wear on the file. Many thanks to the video creator ‘Mikhandmaker’. Sharpening a saw can be one of the most “difficult” tasks for a woodworker. I built this guide for sharpening hand-saw teeth at the required relief angles, for both rip saw and crosscut saw…..Mikhandmaker Thank you for watching.

A bract-like secondary leaf, small and close to the inflorescence, is visible below the main leaf on most of these Crassula umbella plants seen in August at Naries near Springbok. There are two of them, of unequal size, partly concealed by the clusters of buds. On the advanced inflorescences of some plants this pair of opposing upper stem leaves or bracts are quite small, positioned well below the open flowers. The flower buds have short, green, clasping sepals, the white corollas already pressing up beyond their grasp. The outside surfaces of the corolla lobes are pinkish on some plants, not pale cream as here (Frandsen, 2017; iNaturalist).


How To Survive An Atomic Attack : A Cold War Manual The Soviet Union detonated its first nuclear bomb in 1949, heralding the era of the Cold War in which the prospect of thermonuclear attack and assured mutual destruction put every man, woman and child in the firing line. The US government issued a series of booklets which explained how to protect your family, food and water supply and your home. Survival Under Atomic Attack provides practical advice on how to construct a backyard shelter from plywood and covered with earth. A second publication, Fallout Protection is a more straightforward explanation of the dangers of a nuclear attack. This collection concludes with the Family Shelters Series which provides detailed drawings and specifics on a range of home-built shelters, above and below ground.

Temporal range: Upper Cretaceous Ichthyornis (meaning "fish bird") was a tern-like bird which lived 93-83.5 million years ago in the Upper Cretaceous. It lived in flocks, nested on shorelines, and hunted for fish in the Western Interior Seaway, a huge inland sea in what is now North America. Description[change | change source] Ichthyornis was about 8 inches (20 cm) long. It had a large head, toothed jaws, and a long beak. This powerful flyer is the oldest-known bird that had a keeled breastbone (sternum) similar to that of modern birds. Ichthyornis was originally found in 1872 in Kansas by Benjamin Franklin Mudge, a professor from Kansas State Agricultural College. Othniel C. Marsh of Yale University described and named the first fossils. Fossils of the bird have been found in Kansas, Texas and Alberta.

effective precipitation | precipitation actually available to plants after runoff and evaporation. Observing vegetation is a fairly accurate way to determine effective precipitation over long periods of time. Based on vegetation type, the Natural Resources Conservation Service mapped average effective precipitation to produce this Available Water Supply map of selected parts of the Flagstaff area. Click on the map to see it larger on a separate page. Here in the Southwest, ponderosa forests develop where there are between 17 and 22 inches of precipitation a year—generally between 6,000 and 8,000 feet above sea level. Pinyon-juniper woodland occurs at lower elevations, where precipitation is between about 10 and 16 inches. However on south-facing slopes, intense solar radiation can lower the amount of precipitation that is effectively available to vegetation.

But preserving food is far from her only challenge. Douglas must also consider the nutritional value of the meals to ensure the astronauts stay healthy in orbit. One challenge is that vitamins in food degrade over time when exposed to oxygen, so packaging must be incredibly airtight. She also has to count calories. In the microgravity environment of the ship, an astronaut’s skeleton and muscles are no longer used to support their bodies, leading to a decrease in bone and muscle mass. To avoid this, astronauts regularly hit the space gym (treadmills, exercise bikes, and weight machines on board), but they need calorie-rich foods to compensate for these workouts.


It seems as though the act of crying when sad does nothing to relieve that sadness. Is there an advantage to crying from an evolutionary perspective, or is it the end result of a different process? Also, why is there the same physiological reaction of crying when in sadness or in pain? First, here is a link to an article that discussion the answer to your question: Why Cry? Evolutionary Biologists Show Crying Can Strengthen Relationships The original article to which it refers can be found here: Emotional Tears as Biological Signals To speculate a bit on Jez's question, crying in adults could be a result of our possible Neoteny. Crying in infant animals is extremely common as a way to elicit attention and sympathy from the mother. If we are neotenous apes, crying could be a left-over behavior that was seized by evolution, instead of being discarded.


5 Ways to Lower Your Cholesterol If you are 20 or older you should have your cholesterol measured at least once every five years by your primary care doctor. Measuring cholesterol is done with a blood test called a lipoprotein panel. It requires a 9 to 12-hour fast and gives information about your total cholesterol, LDL (bad) cholesterol, HDL (good) cholesterol and Triglycerides. Your cholesterol level is a good indicator of your risk for heart disease.


- Posted on: Feb 19 2014 24% of adults have untreated cavities today. These tiny holes in the tooth surface start out often with no symptoms. But with regular checkups, these areas of bacterial decay can be treated quickly and inexpensively, before the cavity hurts. Once the cavity gets larger and deeper, affecting deeper layers of the tooth structure, you are at greater risk of a toothache and even nerve damage in the tooth. But did you know, when a cavity is just forming in a tooth, most can be removed and the tooth repaired without even needing a shot! A treatment called Air Abrasion can be used blast out the decay and a white composite material is used to fill in the space left behind. Absolutely PAIN FREE! So prevention pays.


Stem Cell Research is arguably the most important research being done today that will pave the way for finding a cure for human’s weaknesses. Cancer, AIDS, degenerative diseases, etc. In 2001, Dr Jack Kessler witnessed a terrible tragedy to his family. This is the story of stem cell research – and Dr. Kessler. At the same time that he became the chair of Northwestern University’s Neurology dept, his daughter, 15 years of age, sufered a ski trip that resulted in paralysis. Dr. Kessler immediately shifted his research from finding a cure for diabetes to finding a cure with stem cell research for spinal cord injuries. However, then- President George W. Bush decided to veto a bill for special funding for stem cell research. The battle began. This is just a trailer until we can find a full replacement From The Web Join The Conversation

Intro to HTML5 Game Programming - WebGL Edition There was once a time where gaming in the browser meant Flash. That time is no more. Based on OpenGL ES, WebGL brings the 3D world to the browser without any plugins. For the first time, the browser has access to a powerful graphics pipeline comparable to what is available on the desktop and in some cases can leverage the GPU. Innovations like requestAnimationFrame which helps the browser to intelligently and efficiently redraw the canvas helps to blur the line between desktop and browser based casual games. In this session, you’ll learn the basics of game programming, WebGL, and how to create games using libraries from the WebGL ecosystem. - Not Interested

November is Native American Month and NM PBS will be airing the documentary “A Thousand Voices.” This is the story of Native American women in New Mexico, from the creation stories of the beginning of time, through the invasions from Spain, Mexico, and United States. The power remains and the story continues. From the proverb, “It takes a thousand voices to tell a single story,” this documentary builds from thousands of voices to present one universal story of New Mexico’s Native American women. Native American women have been purveyors of culture since creation. In spite of Western invasions, Native American women remain strong and grounded in traditional values by enduring courage and wisdom

This course expands on previously learned principles and incorporates more advanced issues such as organization, hierarchy, layout and grid systems. Students will begin to investigate ways to communicate content and meaning of text. The topic that I chose in this project is "Love Your Dog Forever". The idea that I wanted to convey was once you have them, you should take care of them. Don't let them become a wandering dog or a dog without people caring. I used warm and bright colors throughout the whole project because the interaction between human and dog is warm and lively. Imagery that I selected also focuses on people and their pets because I wanted to emphasize their emotion and communication.

What are the orbitals and the hybridization of the #["O"_2"NO"]^"- "# ion? I think you are asking about the hybridization and the orbitals involved in [O₁—O₂—N—O]⁻. You first have to draw the Lewis structure. There are three possibilities (sorry, they are difficult to draw in this editor): The third structure is the most stable, but the actual structure is a resonance hybrid of them all. All the atoms have a double bond in at least one of the contributors. That means they must be sp² hybridized with the left-over p orbitals participating in the π system. O₁ and O₂ are each sp² hybridized. The O₁—O₂ σ bond involves overlap of sp² orbitals from O₁ and O₂. O₂ and N are each sp² hybridized. The O₂—N σ bond involves overlap of sp² orbitals from O₂ and N. The p orbitals from O₁, O₂, N, and O all overlap to form an extended π orbital system over the whole ion.


BATAVIA, Ill. - The first bison of the spring has been born at the U.S. Energy Department’s Fermilab facility, west of Chicago. Officials say the calf was born on April 20, one of 12 to 14 expected this spring. The public is welcome to photograph and see the herd at the lab in Batavia, about 35 miles (56 kilometres) west of downtown Chicago. Admission is free. Nearly 1,000 acres of tallgrass prairielands surround the lab. The first director, Robert Wilson, established the bison herd in 1969 as a symbol of the history of the Midwestern prairie and the lab’s pioneering research. The lab is home to scientists who study particle physics and do accelerator research.


Faster and Safer Construction Jobsites with Smart Sensors Strength has been traditionally calculated by breaking sample cylinders cast from the same concrete material used for the building of a structure. In fact, using compression to test concrete strength has existed since the late 19th century. Today, this method still dominates construction sites, even though it causes delays, since cylinders have to be transported offsite to a laboratory for testing. Moreover, one sample cannot accurately account for local variations across the structure. As a result, data measurement errors can occur, which often creates even more delays. Learn more about embedded wireless sensors and how data collection can be analyzed to provide deeper insights into the performance and predictability of concrete properties in this blog.

As part of my graduate level computer vision course, I developed a visual edge detector based on the theory by John F. Canny. After the image is imported, thresholding is automatically generated using the characteristic values of the entire image -- the range, mean, and standard deviation of the grayscale pixel values. A Gaussian blur is applied by convolution in X and Y. The image is then normalized, and the gradient angles are calculated in four bins between 0 and pi. A non-maximum suppression reduces the unlikely edge pixel candidates and edge linking connects the good pixels in a final binary image. Aspects: Computer Vision, Matlab

What is the difference between a bracelet and a bangle ? The terms “bangle” and “bracelet” have different etymologies. Bangle is from the Hindi bangri which means ring shaped bracelet or anklet. The word “bracelet” is from Middle French brachialle meaning armlet. Possessing different linguistic roots, both words approximate different regional conceptions of the adornments in question. The most important distinction is that the bangle must be ring-shaped (i.e., always circular, always solid) whereas the bracelet can be flexible. The bracelet appears to have the more generic of the two definitions, encompassing anything which may be worn on the arm – though more commonly on the wrist. No a fixed form, such as links / chain bracelets , beaded bracelets ,sports bracelets Bangle — a type of bracelet .Bangle are in solid form: It is ring-shaped . often people wear more than one on their wrist.

Single-use surgical clothing system for reduction of airborne bacteria in the operating room Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2013 It is desirable to maintain a low bacterial count in the operating room air to prevent surgical site infection. This can be achieved by ventilation or by all staff in the operating room wearing clothes made from low-permeable material (i.e. clean air suits). We investigated whether there was a difference in protective efficacy between a single-use clothing system made of polypropylene and a reusable clothing system made of a mixed material (cotton/polyester) by testing both in a dispersal chamber and during surgical procedures. Counts of colony-forming units (cfu)/m(3) air were significantly lower when using the single-use clothing system in both settings.

February 17, 2015 in Education Jason Ward, who runs the Engaging the Disengaged programme (for more information click here) for Liverpool World Centre has written an article for Sapere regarding what the programme is about and the techniques he uses with participants. Sapere is the educational charity which promotes Philosophy for Children (P4C) in schools and communities and Jason writes how P4C has become an integral part of the project, saying: “No matter what reason pupils were chosen for the project, P4C has helped them to change and develop as people.” Liverpool World Centre are currently writing a resource detailing the effectiveness of P4C on engaging those young people at risk of exclusion. It will include activities, theoretical arguments and case studies to help educators employ this model in their classroom.


One symptom of Alzheimer's that not many people talk about is the inability to have a good night's sleep. It worsens as the disease progresses. This is primarily caused by the mental instability that comes with the disease. As Bel Marra Health states, those with Alzheimer's eventually resort to small naps during the day and have to stay up all night. While this is a difficult part of Alzheimer's, caregivers can help by doing the following: - Ensure the patient isn’t exercising too close to bedtime. - Maintain a regular schedule for the patient. - Adjust the lighting for the time of day. - Limit caffeine and stimulant intake. - Keep napping to a minimum if possible. These steps can help those with Alzheimer's maintain some form of a regular schedule. As always, consult a medical professional for personalized guidance.

What is this Freshwater Invertebrate larvae? Wed, Nov 5, 2008 at 9:43 AM I found this freshwater invertebate in July of 2008. I found it in a culvert located in the Chippewa National Forest, north of Cass Lake, MN. It is about 1.5 – 2 inches long. What is this invertebrate? North Central Minnesota. North of Cass Lake, MN. We have always called the larvae of Predatory Water Beetles by the colorful name Water Tigers. We believe your larva is of a Giant Water Scavenger Beetle in the genus Hydrophilus.


GREEN PEACH APHID FACTS The Green Peach Aphid is pale yellow-green or mid green (and can also be pink or almost black). The body is oval shaped with long siphunculi. Winged alates have black patch on the back. When viewed with a hand lens or microscope, you can see a small tubercle at the junction of the antenna and head of the Green Peach Aphid. It is a pest of a number of agricultural crops and is often confused with the Cotton Aphid. The Green Peach Aphid causes more severe stunting of cotton plants than the cotton aphid and is resistant to a range of insecticides. length about 2mm The Green Peach Aphid attacks many economically important plants such as cotton, canola, potatoes and tomatoes. |Common Name:||Green Peach Aphid|


What is the average speed of an object that is moving at #25 m/s# at #t=0# and accelerates at a rate of #a(t) =2-2t^2# on #t in [0,5]#? NOTE: I am using the given a(t) as the acceleration term. Dimensionally, that doesn’t look quite right t = time taken (s) In this case: It is moving backwards, as indicated by the negative acceleration relative to the starting point. It initially had a forward direction, so it changed direction as well as velocity. The average velocity is thus: This positive value just means that at time (5) it has not yet quite reached the location it was at at time (0). On average it only moved 1 meter over the time span and is now heading back.


In the past, we used to find here an old bridge, which dates back to the 11th century. At that time, it was probably covered with tumbledown old houses... we even found a chapel dedicated to saint Fiacre! A violent flood of the river Loire in February 1716 completely destroyed it! They ordered a reconstruction of the bridge in August 1716: King's architect, Gabriel, designed the plans. The building site began in 1717 and was completed in 1724. This bridge is a true 18th century masterpiece: it was made of stones from Blois and Ménars' quarries. A pyramid with a cross was planned in the middle of the building, flanked by King's blazon (sculptures created by Coustou).


The Loch Awe Monster is a lake monster believed to live in Loch Awe. Loch Awe is the third largest loch in Scotland, with a surface area of 38.5 square kilometers (14.9 sq mi). It is the longest freshwater loch, measuring 41 kilometers (25 mi). It is renowned for its trout fishing. This monster is described to be a gigantic eel reaching 11 feet or more in length. This monster is so strong that during winter it can break ice to get to the surface. One of the few written accounts of this serpent-like creature was documented by a man named Timothy Pont, who chronicled these gigantic eels, as he called them. They allegedly frightened the majority of fishermen away from the loch. Pont described these eels as being the girth of a horse and reaching incredible lengths.


Ear Wax Management Earwax (cerumen) occurs naturally and serves to protect, cleanse, and lubricate the ear canal. For some, earwax will naturally work its way out of the ear but for others it may build up and become impacted. This can create a temporary hearing loss or feeling of fullness in the ears. Use of cotton swabs to remove earwax is not recommended as it can make the buildup worse by pushing the earwax deeper into the ear canal. Your audiologist can safely remove earwax. He or she may also recommend the use of mineral oil or other softeners to help prevent future buildups.


In English, the second person subject pronoun is always “you”, but French has two words: tu and vous. - Tu is the familiar you, - Vous is the formal you, - Vous is also the plural you. Now, in sense of conjugation, will the “formal vous“ and “plural vous” always behave the same?


The City of Angels Located almost in the middle of the country, Bangkok became the capital city of Thailand in 1768. Bangkok is the 68th largest province in Thailand and it is one of the largest cities in the world. The Chao Phraya River, which stretches 372 km (231 mi), is Bangkok's main geographical feature. The city districts were once divided using the canals from the river, which were plentiful within Bangkok itself. Bangkok lies about two meters (6.5 ft) above sea level, which causes problems for the protection of the city against floods during the monsoon season.

Plate armour is a type of body armour made from iron or steel plates. The iconic suit of armour that entirely covers the wearer is plate armour. The earliest example of plate armour is the Roman army's Lorica segmentata. However full plate armour was mainly made in Europe in the late middle ages. This was an improvement on the coat of plates that had been worn over chain mail in the 13th century. It reached its peak popularity in the 15th and 16th centuries. It is often associated with medieval knights, since modified plate armour was used in jousting. However after 1650 only the breastplate was generally worn. This is because the musket was created: the musket could pierce plate armour over long distances. References[change | change source] - "Middle Ages: Armor". Middle Ages: Armor. MiddleAges.Net.

The Olmec established the first great civilization in Mesoamerica, which flourished from about 1200 to 400 B.C. It is sometimes called the mother civilization because it had such a great influence on the cultures of later Mesoamerican people, including the Maya and the Aztec. Like the Olmec, these later groups were organized into social classes, were ruled by military and religious leaders, and built large urban centers. A plaster cast faithfully depicts a colossal head sculpture, one of ten discovered at San Lorenzo, near present-day Mexico City. The Olmec carved these enormous portraits of their rulers out of a hard rock called basalt.


Horizontal Equity(redirected from Equity (economics)) Also found in: Wikipedia. A theory that persons or corporations who earn the same or a similar amount of money should be taxed in the same or a similar way. For example, horizontal equity states that two individuals making $50,000 per year should be taxed the same amount, regardless of how they earned their income. Horizontal equity is the idea behind the progressive tax system in place in many countries, though few countries implement it entirely.


|Photo: Grant Pearson| Opal | #Geology Colour: Colorless, white, various Hardness: 5½ - 6½ A pseudomorph (which means false shape in Latin) is a mineral that has replaced another mineral's chemistry or structure with its own without changing the outward shape of the original mineral while color, hardness, and other properties change to those of the replacing mineral. Transformations from one mineral to another are not unusual in nature, but preserving the outward shape of the original mineral is! The end result is that the crystal appears to be one mineral but is actually another. Opal "Pineapples" - an opal pseudomorph formed by the replacement of glauberite by opal - found only in New South Wales.


Old English wandrian "move about aimlessly, wander," from West Germanic *wundrōjanan "to roam about" (source also of Old Frisian wondria, Middle Low German, Middle Dutch wanderen, German wandern "to wander," a variant form of the root represented in Old High German wantalon "to walk, wander"), from PIE root *wendh- "to turn, wind, weave" (see wind (v.1)).

Widespread and often fairly common in southern South America. Found in varied habitats from Patagonian shrub-steppe to parks and gardens to high Andean puna shrub-grassland to lowland desert scrub. Often in pairs, foraging low to high from weedy brush and shrubs to tree canopy; agile and often active, clinging upside down at tips of branches. Identified by streaky face, mostly plain back, and very long spiky-tipped tail. Voice varies regionally and multiple cryptic species are likely involved.


Species: Plesiosaurus Dolichodeirus Location: Lias Group of England Plesiosaurus (Greek: πλησιος/plesios, near to + σαυρος/sauros, lizard) is a genus of extinct, large marine sauropterygian reptile that lived during the early part of the Jurassic Period, and is known by nearly complete skeletons from the Lias of England. It is distinguishable by its small head, long and slender neck, broad turtle-like body, a short tail, and two pairs of large, elongated paddles. It lends its name to the order Plesiosauria, of which it is an early, but fairly typical member. It contains only one species, the type, Plesiosaurus dolichodeirus.


The wooden floors typical of 1940s-60s houses often lack insulation, and some boards may be affected by borer, splitting or other damage. See use of timber for details of timbers commonly used in 1940s-60s house construction. Flooring should be checked for borer, rot or other damage such as splitting. Splitting occurs along the tongue and groove joints. Repeated sanding over time may also have exposed the tongue and groove joint. Options to repair damaged boards include: - replacing damaged boards with matching timber sourced from a demolition yard - replacing the flooring if in poor condition - installing overlay flooring over existing flooring that is structurally sound. If a timber floor is in good condition, it can be sanded and polyurethaned or oiled to give a durable finish. Houses of this era will generally lack underfloor insulation. Also see foundations and subfloors.


Used 2 pieces of equipment Benchtop Dual-Channel Spectrometer SpinSolv Carbon An optical device used in spectroscopic studies to accumulate a spectrum, its quantitative processing and subsequent analysis using various analytical methods. The decomposed spectrum is obtained by recording the fluorescence after exposure to the substance under the test with radiation (X-ray or laser radiation, spark action, etc.). Essentially, this device measures the intensity and energy (wavelength, frequency) of radiation and other characteristics can be recorded, for example, the polarization state. The term “spectrometer” is applied to devices operating in a wide range of wavelengths: from gamma to infrared range. X-ray powder diffraction apparatus DRON-7 The device is designated for X-ray diffraction analysis to specify material compositions.


During the long cold winter season, our bodies practically ache with the desire to move around outdoors in nice temperatures, unencumbered by heavy clothing, gloves and boots. But when the dog days of summer arrive, we need to be prepared because exercising in the heat can be risky. Our bodies regulate heat by releasing sweat which allows us to cool down. And, when the body is sweating, it’s losing fluid. If your body can no longer cool itself down, it starts storing heat inside resulting in a rise to your core temperature, putting your internal organs and central nervous system at risk. Continue reading How to Exercise Safely in the Heat


By Deneys Reitz A Boer Journal of the Boer War (Revised in May 2009). Deneys Reitz was 17 when the Boer War broke out in 1899. Reitz describes that he had no hatred of the British people, but “as a South African, one had to fight for one’s country.” Reitz had learned to ride, shoot and swim almost as soon as he could walk, and the skills and endurance he had acquired during those years were to be made full use of during the war.


Because of You is a movement that encourages teens to reflect on the power of their words and actions and consider how they are affecting others. The term Bullying has come to reflect a specific situation that does not always connect to the general culture of meanness which many teens experience daily. While only one-third of teens list bullying as a top concern today, twice as many say they regularly experience more specific behaviors like drama, teasing, and exclusion. Adults often talk about bullies, bystanders and victims, but the lines are not so clear. Every day, we all have the opportunity to make someone else’s day better or worse. By encouraging self-reflection and focusing on specific actions, our goal is to inspire this generation to create a more empathetic and inclusive culture around them.

Consequences of a child’s premature birth can follow them into the preschool years. Skill development remains important. OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY AND PHYSICAL THERAPY Mild delays in gross motor skills make it difficult for children to keep up with peers as academic and physical demands increase. These children may demonstrate poor safety awareness during motor activities, appear clumsy with frequent falls and display immature running, jumping, and balance skills. SPEECH AND LANGUAGE AND SOCIAL SKILLS kids may get behind in age-appropriate social skills, speech intelligibility or vocabulary organization and understanding of contingent behavior, i.e. consequences. The multi-disciplinary team of pediatric therapists at Child and Family Development in Charlotte offers an array of services for children from infancy into young adulthood.

This can be prevented by taking some simple precautions: - Wear flat shoes. - Make sure that the stairs, bedrooms, halls and bathrooms are well illuminated. - Keep the floor dry, especially in bathrooms and kitchen. - Avoid alcohol and sedatives. - Use a cane or walker if you are very weak and cannot support you body weight properly. - Avoid wearing bifocal glasses. - When getting up from a lying position, first sit on the edge of the bed for sometime before standing up (to avoid postural hypotension).


Roots emit chemicals that release carbon by breaking bonds with minerals Presentation by Kurtis L. Schroeder, Cropping Systems Agronomist & Plant Pathologist, on Soilborne Diseases of Cereals: Identification and Management Forest owners in Lane County can potentially use their properties to help mitigate the problems caused by an excess of carbon in the atmosphere. Inadequate water intake can limit growth and production, which can translate to narrower profit margins for producers. That is why it is important to understand factors that influence water nutrition and quality for beef cattle.


Acute sinusitis (acute rhinosinusitis) causes the cavities around your nasal passages (sinuses) to become inflamed and swollen. This interferes with drainage and causes mucus to build up. With acute sinusitis, it may be difficult to breathe through your nose. The area around your eyes and face may feel swollen, and you may have throbbing facial pain or a headache. Acute sinusitis is most often caused by the common cold. Other triggers include allergies, bacterial and fungal infections. Treatment of acute sinusitis depends on the cause. In most cases, home remedies are all that's needed. However, persistent sinusitis can lead to serious infections and other complications. Sinusitis that lasts more than eight weeks or keeps coming back is called chronic sinusitis.


Industry & Business Most of the land used for farming was cleared of wood before the Revolutionary War and then used for pasture and tillage. The earliest powder horns retained traditional European designs, but that changed as the work of a few engravers showed evidence of a transition. New England rifles are noted, not only for their artistic design, but also for their accuracy and the superb quality of the workmanship.

Computer games about football make players more aggressive than violent ones, psychologists claim. While participants remain ‘numb’ when they see someone being ‘killed’ on screen, apparently harmless games that mirror real life can have a far greater effect. The study shows a complex link between the way viewers interpret violent and hostile events on the screen and their personal reactions. There has been a huge debate about whether watching violent video games can desensitise young people’s responses. Governments around the world have introduced laws to control the sale of games, along with rating systems to alert parents and consumers to the scale of violence. Read the whole story: Daily Mail


Inventor: Jorg Schlaich Want cheap, green electricity? The Australians have a simple answer. First, build a 20,000-acre greenhouse to trap and heat air. Then build a colossal tower 1 km (.62 miles) tall in the middle of it. The warm air from the greenhouse will rise through the tower as it would through a chimney, turning turbines and generating enough electricity to power 200,000 Australian homes. It may sound like science fiction, but the project is on track to get approved by the Australian government. If completed, the $800 million solar tower will be the tallest man-made structure in the world. To Learn More: enviromission.com.au Next Virtual Keyboard


Amate paper is made from the bark of wild fig and mulberry trees. The bark is boiled for many hours and then hammered down to form huge sheets of paper. It is an ancient craft and dates back to pre-conquest times. It is still used today in the state of Puebla, Mexico. Amate paper is also sold to craftspeople in Guerrero who then paint it in a unique style, depicting elegant birds and flowers, detailed scenes of local customs - weddings, agricultural work, local festivities or sometimes pre-Hispanic thems such as the Aztec calendar or pre-Hispanic gods.


Tungsten inert gas welding (TIG) An inert gas welding process characterised by its constant-current supply, a non-consumable tungsten electrode, an electric arc, and a weld pool of molten metal that is easy to control. Only inert gases/gas mixtures are used as shielding gases. The filler metal is supplied to the weld pool manually using a filler rod or as hot wire during automatic mode. The use of preheated weld wire (hot wire) and potential narrow gap welding provides a considerable improvement of the deposition rate and increases the efficiency during the automated process.

In some circumstances or where the skin is very sensitive to the sun, UVA rays can generate pigmentary changes which go beyond redness and burns. 80% of skin ageing is caused by sunlight. Skin colour changes usually form on the forehead, cheeks and upper lip. Some PIGMENT SPOTS can be caused by hormonal changes, such as pregnancy or the use of photosensitive medicinal products, such as oral contraceptives. Some PIGMENT SPOTS can be caused by the fact that our skin reacts to external irritants, causing dark spots. This normally happens after an aggressive skin treatment (such as a scrub), injury, scars or acne. When to use a very high-performance sunscreen:


A real story from a poor family More children and adolescents today are enrolled in pre-primary, primary and secondary education than ever before. Yet, for many of them, schooling does not lead to learning – and this was before COVID-19 shuttered schools and disrupted learning across the globe, creating an urgent need to reimagine education. A lack of trained teachers, inadequate learning materials Makeshift classes and poor sanitation facilities make learning difficult for many children. Others come to school too hungry, sick or exhausted from work or household tasks to benefit from their lessons. The consequences are grave: An estimated 617 million children and adolescents around the world are unable to reach minimum proficiency levels in reading and mathematics, even though two-thirds of them are in school.


Wilmot Proviso Law and Legal Definition The Wilmot Proviso refers to a proposal to prohibit slavery in the territory acquired by the U.S. at the conclusion of the Mexican War. It was amendment to a funding bill that was created by President James K. Polk and was made to establish and fund peace negotiations with Mexico for a Treaty to end the War. In 1846, David Wilmot a Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives from Pennsylvania, proposed the proviso to an appropriations bill to pay Mexico for land that the United States had seized as a result of the Mexican War. The proviso itself said that any acquired land from Mexico must be free from slavery or involuntary servitude.

Globally only one in three people do not have access to clean, safe drinking water. Washing your hands with soap and water, one of the main ways to sanitize yourself, is a privilege that two out of five people do not have access to. In order to achieve other Sustainable Development Goals, access to clean water and better sanitation methods are needed. Better data is necessary to strengthen water and sanitation infrastructure and programs. Governments need to know where people live, the number of people who have access to clean water and sanitation, and how to target regions in need of resources. Data can help pinpoint where clean water is and aid efforts to combat drought. Although we take it for granted, sanitation is a physical measure that has probably done more to increase human life span than any kind of drug or surgery. — Deepak Chopra, author

Venerated by local fishermen, Hachiryu Shrine was once a sandbar that jutted out into Hachirogata Lagoon. Before the land reclamation in this area, Hachirogata Lagoon had a booming fishing industry. The local fishermen gave thanks to the god Hachiryu for their good catches and erected stone monuments to appease the ghosts of the fish they caught. The oldest of these, the Memorial Stone of Thanks to Lake Mullets, was built in 1861. In addition, the fishermen and local officials of Funakoshi built a stone monument as a stone of protection for the shore in gratitude to Hachiryu. Designated as cultural resources by the city, these monuments are important in preserving the local folklore and worship of Hachiryu.


Definition: A word or phrase used in a non-literal sense as a rhetorical or literary technique, for a more vivid effect. There are different types of figures of speech, such as: Metaphors imply a resemblance between the figure of speech and the object, action, or feeling it describes. For example, “A wave of excitement swept over the crowd.” Similes are comparisons using words such as “like” or “as.” For example, “He is as brave as a lion”. Personification is when an inanimate object or abstract quality is described as if it were alive. For example, “The wind whispered in the trees.” Hyperbole is deliberate exaggeration for a stronger or more vivid effect. For example, “I’m so hungry I could eat a horse.”

In September 2018, the Indonesian island of Sulawesi was hit by a 7.5 magnitude earthquake. The impact, combined with the tsunami, landslides, and soil liquefaction that followed, “... claimed well over 2000 lives, destroyed homes, buildings, infrastructure and farmland in several districts,” according to the European Space Agency (ESA). Ten months later, response efforts are now moving into the recovery and rebuilding phase, with satellite information offering important insights to local officials. For example, through a collaboration with the Asian Development Bank, ESA is providing Indonesian officials with hazard-mapping tools derived from Earth observation data, and training in how to most effectively use these resources. “The main purpose of sharing these information products is to help the…more


This exhibit illustrates the anterior insertion of a ventriculostomy catheter into the right 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.

Year 5 enjoyed a great day at the Houses of Parliament last Friday. The visit started with a tour of the Parliament building, where the children had a chance to go inside both the House of Commons and the House of Lords. They also visited the Palace of Westminster, Westminster Hall and Victoria Tower Gardens for lunch by the Thames. We all learnt about the history of the building, its role in governing the country and its relationship with the monarchy. After the tour, the children participated in a workshop where they created a new law and debated it in their own House of Commons. Nathan acted as a particularly excellent speaker, controlling the members of the house; quite remarkably he even managed to keep Andrew under control, only having to warn him once! The children thoroughly enjoyed the day, making great contributions to discussions and asking intelligent questions throughout.

| in Interesting Facts About Animals In 1931, a scientist decided to undertake an experiment in which he raised a monkey as if it were a person. This scientist grabbed a young monkey and began raising it with his 10-month-old kid. It outperformed the boy in all academic tests but was unable to learn to talk. The experiment had to be halted because the scientist's kid began to emulate the chimp's conduct. He made monkey noises when he wanted to eat or drink instead of learning a language.


In the fourth quarter of the 20th century, scientific and technical advances allowed for the first time the use of organ transplantation in the treatment of terminal and incurable diseases.

Year 2 have been composing their own animal rhythms. We learned about single quavers (with the curly tails) and lots of us used syncopated rhythms. We thought of an animal or a short sentence about an animal and then clapped each syllable. We made them more interesting by changing the rhythms we used. When we performed them, Miss Gunn wrote them out in musical notation. See if you can tap or clap these patterns to yourself. How would your animal rhythm sound if you composed your own?


Pacific Geoduck (panapea generosa) – Zeballos, Vancouver Island The pacific geoduck is the largest burrowing clam in the world and is only found on the west coast of North America. It burrows into the ocean floor where it remains for its entire lifespan which usually exceeds 100 years. Its age can be estimated by the growth rings on its shell. The oldest geoduck was discovered in British Columbia, and it was estimated to be 168 years old. There are no reviews yet.


The site is located Curraheen Cork City , Traditional Japanese method shou sugi ban, also known as yakisugi, makes charred wood resistant to harsh weather conditions and ensures it is durable in time. Main advantage is that surface does not change its colour in time. Also, charred layer is resistant to mould, insects, water and even fire. In Japan, this technology was introduced 800 years ago. The simple vernacular forms were clad in the charred timber cladding with punctures for light and view.


Full report is embedded below Summary of Report Most ionizing radiation-induced damage is caused by hydroxyl radicals, and the selective reduction of hydroxyl by hydrogen in vitro has been demonstrated previously. Irradiation of the heart can cause chronic cardiac disease. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that hydrogen-rich water (pure water saturated with molecular hydrogen), which is easy to use, induces cardioprotection against ionizing irradiation injury in mice. In this paper, we demonstrate that hydrogen can protect myocardium degeneration from radiation-induced injury, decrease myocardium malondialdehyde (MDA), 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels, and increase myocardium endogenous antioxidants in vivo. We suggest that hydrogen has a cardioprotective effect against radiation-induced injury.The Potential Cardioprotective Effects of Hydrogen in Irradiated Mice


The amount of sleep young children need varies. An infant typically needs 16 to 20 hours of sleep per day. It is normal for a newborn to wake up every two or three hours to be fed. At around four months babies begin to need less sleep, 10 to 12 hours at night and nap 2 to 3 hours mid-day. Infant sleep patterns are usually related to their feeding schedules and become consistent as long as parents and caregivers are mindful to keep the schedule consistent. Preschool age (2-5 years) children tend to nap between 2-3 hours but begin to need less time as they move toward their 5th birthday.

I know it’s Monday and you’ve got a full ‘to do’ list. But, if you’re looking for a mind-blowing way to procrastinate, I’ve found it. The Google Data Team, NASA, the European Space Agency and Wikipedia have joined forces to map 100,000 stars in our galaxy. And, it’s as awesome as it sounds. Google may have mapped your local streets, and even the Great Barrier Reef, but that’s just peanuts compared to space. This is ‘big data’ in action. You can zoom around the inner part of our galaxy and investigate what is known about 100,000 stars, and get some perspective on how small our planet is in the broader scheme of things. Really, you’ll be able to lose, I mean, use your entire afternoon in space. Which, when put that way, is pretty awesome. All this, it’s a Chrome experiment using WebGL. It’s best viewed using Chrome but will work in other browsers. Have a play around the galaxy here.

To understand the significance of The Cross one must imagine the horrific scene on Calvary hill. Calvary, also called Golgotha (meaning skull), was immediately outside Jerusalem’s walls. Calvary is where Jesus hung, where He was crucified – His earthly body nailed to a man-made cross. In those days of Israel a cross was a means by which convicted criminals were put to death. Crucifixion was perfected by the Roman empire as a manner of execution; the convicted humiliatingly stripped bare then nailed to a cross outside the city walls. They hung in that specific area, until dead, for all who enter the city to gawk and beware. Jesus, the only sinless man in all the world, was falsely found guilty of a crime and sentenced to an excruciating death on a cross.Continue reading
