What is phenology? It is the rapt observation of our wondrous, phenomenal relatives, the flora and fauna, in their budding, blooming, breeding, migrating dances around the seasons.... Symbolic meaning of the Wheels of Time and Space that journey into phenology, ecopsychology, folklore and festival celebrations rooted in nature.


In general the main role of birds in the ecosystems is being agents of dispersion. Their ubiquoty make them useful as bioindicators, which is not a ecological role per se, but has been very useful to spread awareness about the importance of preserving our enviroment and the disastrous consequences of the overuse of some pesticides. - Agents of dispersal of plants, but also of other animals: thorugh their activities birds spread pollen and pollinate different species, seeds, and even animals (Even animals can be spread. Some wading birds relocate fish eggs that get stuck to their legs, thereby aiding in fish dispersal to other parts of a river or marsh). Songbirds spreading cereal seeds. Hummingbirds pollinating flowers.


1. How does Jane's first letter begin? Jane Austen writes to her sister, Cassandra, and recounts the previous night's ball. Jane was disappointed that Charles Fowle was not in attendance, but glad that her "Irish friend", Tom Lefroy was there. She praises Tom, mentioning that his only fault is his light-colored morning coat which she compares to Henry Fielding's "Tom Jones". She tells her sister about their brother Charles's scheme to get a lieutenancy, and jokes about the funny name of Cassandra's fiancé, Tom Fowle's, vessel. 2. Why does Jane thank Cassandra in her next letter? In her next letter, Jane thanks Cassandra for the letters she has received from her sister and Mary and wishes to see them sooner. She is flattered by her sister's commendation of her writing since Jane "writes only for fame". This section contains 3,212 words (approx. 11 pages at 300 words per page)


Electronic video images may show a varying degree of detail. That is evidenced by the contrast between standard television broadcasts and those called High Definition (HD). Television was originally displayed on a Cathode Ray Tube or CRT (also called the "picture tube"). The CRT reproduced the image on its screen by shooting an electron beam horizontally at the rate of about 60 times per second. To a large degree, the number of horizontal lines determined how detailed the video appeared. The more lines, the smaller the lines, the greater the detail of the picture.


Depression symptoms can occur over a period of time, or in some cases, suddenly. This condition is experienced in a variety of ways. Some people may still be productive, but find that they have less energy, enthusiasm, or concentration; while others find it difficult to perform their daily activities or take care of themselves. Treatments for depression range from taking medications to psychotherapy, or include some combination of both. Psychotherapy helps the individual understand and process experiences, emotions, and behaviors, enabling them to cope with this difficult state. There is hope.


Specific gravity is a nondestructive test used as a quality control check of the consistency of formulation and processing of brake lining. The specific gravity and the range of specific gravity are peculiar to each formulation and, therefore, the acceptable values or range must be established for each formulation by the manufacturer. Specific gravity alone shows nothing about a materials in use performance. The specific gravity of sintered metal powder friction materials, particularly those which have steel backing members, is usually determined somewhat differently. Reference ASTM B 376. Purpose To establish a uniform procedure for determining the specific gravity of brake friction material. This technical report is being Stabilized because it covers technology, products, or processes which are mature and not likely to change in the foreseeable future.

Tomatoes can grow in two main ways: determinate (bush) or indeterminate (vining). Determinate tomato plants are more compact. When fruit sets the plant will stop growing—usually at 3-4’ tall—and the tomatoes will all ripen on the plant at around the same time. These tomato plants don’t need a lot of support. Indeterminate plants will stretch out on vines. They can stretch to about 6’, but sometimes they can get up to 10’ or more. These plants will need something to climb on for support. Indeterminate tomatoes keep growing until the frost comes, and fruits will show up throughout the season for a continuous harvest instead of all at once.

Dog Disc Disease (IVDD), Five Steps Toward Preventing It by Keith Somers / Like Keith & Dog Wonders on Facebook Dog disc disease, or Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD), effects certain smaller breeds of dogs called chondrodystrophoid dogs. They are at greater risk of developing the disease because of a genetic form of dwarfism. Those breeds could be Dachshunds, Corgis, Papillions, Basset Hounds, Miniature Pinschers, Beagles, Shi Tzu, Lhasa Apso, Pekingese and still others, however, Intervertebral Disk Disease (IVDD) is particularly prevalent in Dachshunds. The disease effects the flexible discs made up of cartilage which cushions between each bone (vertebrae) of the spinal cord, extending from the base of the skull to the end of the tail.

Reflecting on the text (Revelation 13) One of the most notable features of the book of Revelation is “the beast” in Revelation 13 (actually there are two of them). Since the beast is a central aspect of John’s work, we’re going to spend two days discussing it. The first day will be Reflecting on the Text, focusing on meaning of Revelation 13. The second day will be Living What We Learn, focusing on the application of Revelation 13. Another way of looking it is that today we’ll be discussing who or what John has in mind when he talks about the beast. Later we’ll explore what John reveals about the beast, and how it applies to us. Because the beast is such a controversial topic, we need to start by laying out some guidelines for an answer. If we are going to have the right explanation, it must fit certain criteria. More specifically, our answer must correspond to the genres of Revelation.

Easter: May 2nd St. Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria and a great defender of the orthodox faith, throughout his life opposed the Arian heresy. By denying the Godhead of the Word, the Arians turned Christ into a mere man, only higher in grace than others in the eyes of God. St. Athanasius took part in the Council of Nicea in 325 and until the end remained a champion of the faith as it was defined by the Council. In him the Church venerates one of her great Doctors. He was subjected to persecutions for upholding the true teaching concerning the person of Christ and was sent into exile from his see no less than five times. He died at Alexandria in 373 after an episcopate of forty-six years.


When Ducks Unlimited talks about the science underlying their conservation efforts, that’s frequently all that is said – that it’s there. But that science is not something to be taken for granted, and the effort and time it takes to become useable information for guiding conservation programs should be appreciated. Here is one example of the complex path from question to answers, and it prominently features the Gulf Coast Prairie LCC's two Mottled Duck projects: developing a Decision Support Tool to target habitat restoration and evaluation of that tool, to ensure its accuracy. Read the Ducks Unlimited article: Putting science into conservation action: A Decision Support Tool helps DU target wetland and grassland conservation efforts to benefit nesting and brood-rearing mottled ducks.


When you pull up on the bicycle's handlebars, they pull down on you by Newton's third law. The short answer is that this downward force is ultimately transmitted to the pedals. Work Step by Step The long answer is that because you do not accelerate vertically, the net vertical force on you is zero. The extra downward force on you from the handlebars is balanced by an extra upward force from the pedals. If the pedals are pushing harder upward on you, Newton's third law tells us that you are pushing harder down on the pedals.

Q. How does a TV remote work? I know they use infrared light but that's about all. A. TV and other remotes generally use infrared light-emitting diodes to send out their signal. The LEDs are pulsed so that the signal can carry information. Different patterns of pulses are used for different functions. On the front of the TV, usually in the control area for the tuner, is a phototransistor or photodiode. The light pulses from the remote control and received and converted into electrical pulses. These pulses are amplified and shaped, then sent to a section of the tuner controller that decodes the pulse patterns and performs the selected functions in the TV. The fact that the light is pulsed helps to greatly increase the range of the remote, reduces battery drain, and helps make the system immune to interference from environmental light sources.

Swing Dancing/Musicality< Swing Dancing You may have noticed on the dance floor that some dancers are able to perform moves which match changes in the flow of the music. These dancers haven't necessarily memorized the music -- most swing music actually has a regular and predictable structure. The chorus of most swing songs consists of 32 bars which as a whole follow an AABA structure. Each individual letter consists of four 8-count sections and the B letter has a different melody. The fourth 8-count section of each letter is often an ideal time to execute a break. If you have swing music available, try listening to it now and see if you can notice this structure.

This presentation is part of the IMI Seminar Series, Trinity term 2015. About this seminar This paper explores the added value and challenges of the timeline as a participatory technique in autobiographical migration research, reflecting on a case study of Afghan return migrants. The paper shows that asking participants to draw a timeline representing the course of their lives complemented their life histories as it visually showed significant periods or turning points in their lives. Drawing the timeline can also give participants more control over their own story and enables a more participatory means of data collection. Last, since interviewing can have a negative connotation for people who went through asylum procedures, timeline drawing released the pressure from more verbal methods.


Earth is experiencing more rapid changes now than at any time in the past ten thousand years. The Karp lab is investigating the resulting trajectories of change in biodiversity and Earth’s life-support systems. Looking forward, a key challenge for humanity is to increase food production, while at the same time securing other vital societal benefits from rural landscapes. Meeting this challenge requires improved understanding of how agricultural practices affect yields, biodiversity, and ecosystem services. Our research thus focuses on developing innovative solutions for reconciling conservation activities with food production practices. Our research program has five domains.

“This is the dry steamed duck made at the household of Hangzhou merchant He Xingju. Wash a fat duck and chop into eight chunks. Immerse the duck completely with sweet wine and autumn sauce in a porcelain jar and seal it well. Place everything directly in a dry pot to let “steam” over a low flame with not adding water. When it is ready to be served, the ducks meat should be as soft as mud. The dish takes the two incense sticks of time to cook.” “Dry-steaming” is quite similar to the cooking technique “men” (悶), which means that the food is covered, heated, and then allowed to cook through using the residual heat. From the recipe, we see that the temperature is probably quite a bit higher, almost like low temperature baking. (See Pork 12: Dry steamed pork).

A computer program has been developed as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's national program of Regional Aquifer System Analysis (RASA) that generates input to ground-water flow models to enable them to simulate variable-density ground-water flow. Information required for the program's operation is: aquifer elevation, thickness, and ground-water density. Included in the report is a computer program for calculating ground-water density from aquifer depth, temperature, and dissolved solids concentration. The 60-page report describes the theoretical development and documents two FORTRAN programs used to generate the necessary flow-model input. An example for a symmetrical basin is fully worked out. Additional publication details USGS Numbered Series A model for the simulation of flow of variable-density ground water in three dimensions under steady-state conditions


C.S.IMSA @ Springfield – Tuesday: Lift a Finger Our CSI team is well on its way to cracking the case! Today, the scientists-in-training delved into the study of fingerprints. They first fingerprinted themselves in order to learn about the different recognizable fingerprint patterns. Students then examined the fingerprint evidence collected from the crime scene and attempted to match it with prints collected later from suspects. Our investigators have had a busy two days, but there is more forensic science to be done before the culprit can be apprehended! Ask your student: What are the three characteristic fingerprint patterns? (loops, whorls, and arches) After two days, do you have any theories about the case?

Pharmacology/Alpha 2 agonists Alpha 2 receptors are located mainly on presynaptic nerve endings, as well as Beta cells of the pancreas. These receptors are inhibitory in nature. When Norepinephrine is released from the presynaptic nerve terminal, some circles back to bind with the Alpha 2 receptor. This causes feedback inhibition, thus reducing the amount of Norepinephrine released. Alpha 2 stimulation also results in inhibition of insulin release. Binding of Alpha 2 receptors is mediated by inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and a decrease in the amount of intracellular cAMP. Alpha 2 agonists include Norepinephrine and Clonidine.

GW was actually discredited science, nuclear power picked up after Chernobyl. Any biologists will tell you photosynthesis in the sea and land caps CO2. Which was twice as high in the warm Jurassic, 4 times higher in the 3 natural ice-ages. One lasted 650 million years. All life on Earth is supported by plants, bacteria and alae metabolising CO2 into carbohydrates, and excreting oxygen. The Cretaceous mass extinction happened as CO2 fell below 1ppm, and 90% of life on Earth died. It only recovered as animals evolved to breath in O2 – plant waste, and breath out CO2 – plant food. Global average CO2 static at a pre-industrial 2ppm. Our weather is made in the stratosphere – where CO2 does not reach. JT M.Eng


diffusa or Centaurea diffusa Diffuse knapweed is a biennial weed. Flowers are usually white but are sometimes lavendar. Bracts below the flowers are reflexed and have bristles along the margins. Stems divide into many branches, giving mature plants a shrublike structure. Diffuse knapweed is a noxious weed that should be aggressively controlled.

Saturday, September 11, 2010 Education has always encouraged group projects for students to learn how to collaborate; a real world skill necessary for many scenarios, such as family units, work settings, etc... Prior to Web 2.0 tools, students had to work on their project during class time or had to make time to meet before or after school. This created a dilemma of where to store the project, who was responsible for the physical project and if the one responsible for the physical project was absent, how could it be completed? Web 2.0 tool Google Docs is a document sharing platform that allows multiple people access to one document and the abilities to edit it from any computer with an internet access. This tool solves the mentioned dilemmas and allows collaboration to be the focus of the project.


Over 20 million Americans have kidney disease, and the vast number are not aware of their condition. There are many acquired and genetic causes of kidney disease. The most common causes of progressive kidney failure in the U.S. are diabetes and hypertension. Investigators in the VCKD are undertaking cutting edge basic and clinical and translational research aimed at treating and curing kidney disease. Our goal is to inform and inspire patients, professionals, and the public about innovations in research, training, and personalized kidney care. You can find the members of the VCKD here, as well as find a listing of our subspecialty clinics. Donations to the VCKD will help us continue the fight to treat and cure kidney disease.


Whats The Weather Like In Miami? ||Weather is the state of the atmosphere, to the degree that it is hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy, clear or cloudy. Most weather phenomena occur in the just below the stratosphere. Weather refers to day-to-day temperature and precipitation activity, whereas climate is the term for the statistics of atmospheric conditions over longer periods of time. When used without qualification, "weather" is generally understood to mean the weather of Earth.


From the American Historical Association: On April 14, 1865, just five days after the close of the Civil War, Elizabeth Keckly, a former slave and confidante of Mary Todd Lincoln, retold the story from the night of Lincoln’s assassination, remembering how the First Lady’s cloak was wet with blood. “The story of Lincoln’s assassination fascinated an American public steeped in the sensationalism and sentimentalism of the Civil War era,” and that fascination continues today. One of the Chicago Historical Society’s prize artifacts is Mary Todd Lincoln’s alleged cloak from the night of her husband’s death. Is it really her cloak and is it really covered in Abraham Lincoln’s blood? Together with Academic Technologies at Northwestern University the Chicago Historical Society has created Wet with Blood, an interactive website that explores the mysteries of Mary Todd Lincoln’s cloak.


One of the best way to learn new things is through imitation. - Learning to play an instrument? Copy what your teacher does! - Learning to paint? Try painting in the style of a famous artist. - Learning to dance? Watch some videos on YouTube and attempt to replicate it in the comfort of your home. That’s why, as I’m trying to become better at infographics, I really appreciate Nathan Yau’s guides over at FlowingData.com. Recently he had a great guide on how to create a ‘treemap’. I used slightly different variables (blog title, category, visitor time per post) and ended up with the following: It was a fairly straightforward process: - Export CSV from Google Analytics - Select and tidy up data - Fire up R and follow Nathan’s guide - Tidy up in graphics program ***BONUS*** I knew this reminded me of something! Check out JDiskReport to visualize what’s on your hard drive in treemap format! 😀

Library Ed. Blackstone Audio 1995 CS ISBN $55.95 Nine cassettes In 1610 Galileo trained his telescope on the heavens and observed that the stars are not fixed, nor do they rotate around a stationary Earth. In Jeff Riggenbach’s reading, we witness the mercurial and brilliant Galileo trying to make his discoveries understandable to ecclesiastical authorities. Riggenbach conveys the drama of Galileo’s capitulation before the Inquisition--a scene of conflict between documented observation and accepted belief so vivid it could easily have taken place in today’s world instead of four centuries ago. Galileo’s was an exciting mind in an era of discovery and tumult, rendered distinctively in Riggenbach’s narration.

when a poor man decides to adopt a homeless child, he is called altruistic (altruism is an act of doing things selflessly). sometimes we are altruistic without knowing it. but did you know that even animals can be altruistic, too? in May 2005, a Border Collie nursed two newborn tigers at thee Heifei Zoo in China. In September 2006, a Dachshund in the United States adopted kittens. even birds do it. A Florida scrub jay was spotted to help its own species in breeding. fierce lions are joining the bandwagon of over 220 birds and 120 mammals and variety of other animals. such unexplainable behavior of animals actually reveals a flaw in Charles Darwin's Theory of natural selection, which states that "animals behave in a competitive manner to be able to survive.


Lectures from the Allen Room and the Wertheim Study: George Romney Republican: The Rise and Fall of Mitt's Political Mentor From his 1962 election as Michigan governor until he withdrew two weeks before the 1968 New Hampshire primary, George Romney was a leading candidate for the Republican presidential nomination. But the successful auto executive who got into politics preaching nonpartisan citizen participation was overwhelmed by his inconsistencies and antagonized Republican colleagues--both conservative and liberal. Going beyond his "brainwashing" gaffe, author John R. Bohrer, a writer in residence in the Library's Allen Room, explores the political biography of the first Romney to run for president.

Puzzles/Logic puzzles/Knights, Knaves & Spies On the fabled Island of Knights and Knaves, we meet three people, A, B, and C, one of whom is a knight, one a knave, and one a spy. The knight always tells the truth, the knave always lies, and the spy can either lie or tell the truth. A says: "C is a knave." B says: "A is a knight." C says: "I am the spy." Who is the knight, who the knave, and who the spy?

"Instead of wondering what students can do with their devices ... district educators ask students to create or brainstorm ways they might use their devices for learning purposes." What a concept! The quote comes from Jill Hobson, Forsyth County School District’s instructional technology director talking about the district's "Bring Your Own Technology" initiative in this great piece by E-school News's Laura Devaney. It shows that the district has gone beyond wondering whether tech devices are helpful in school. That's a moot point. The district is not only training teachers how to incorporate students' own valuable tech devices into the learning process, but it's actually reaching out to students to include them in figuring out how they might use it as a learning device. Are other districts trying out this tactic? I'd love to know how students respond to the challenge.


Which of the following is not part of the Responsible Care program? Many photographic processes use chromium salts. Washing the photographic plates results in excess hexavalent chromium being discharged into wash waters and eventually into our waterways. Considering the pollution prevention hierarchy, what options are available to reduce these discharges and which would be most preferable? 1.Obtain an annual report from a chemical company (e.g. DuPont, Eastman Kodak, Dow Chemical, Monsanto, etc.). These can be found in your library or on the Internet. Find their environmental policy statement and comment on its adequacy in relation to pollution prevention principles and sustainability issues.


To improve outcomes in brain cancer, better tools are needed to diagnose brain cancer, surgically remove brain tumours and monitor how they respond to therapy. Glioblastomas, aggressive brain cancers, are treated by surgical removal of the tumour followed by radiation and chemotherapy. A molecule found on the surface of cells called EGFR is strongly associated with glioblastoma. Much effort has gone into developing molecular imaging approaches to non‑invasively detect EGFR and linking it to therapeutic response. Dr Clarence Geyer and his team are developing a new strategy to rapidly construct EGFR imaging probes that possess properties necessary to detect EGFR in brain tumours. These imaging probes will be useful to diagnose and monitor glioblastomas and to guide the surgical removal of tumour tissue.


Please work with your child for about 5 minutes each night on letters, sounds, or sight words. It is important that they practice daily. We will test them at least once a week. Phonemic Awareness: Hearing the sounds in words is very important to help children become better readers and listeners. Show students pictures and have them identify the beginning, middle, and ending sound and the rhyme (bat would be said as onset is /b/ sound and -at, the rest of the word. This can be referred to as word families; bat, rat, cat, hat. We use the term onset and rhyme when we are identifying them in different words. Students should be able to substitute the beginning, middle, & ending sounds in words. For example, change the sound /h/ in hat to /b/, what is the new word, bat Change the /t/ in hat to /d/, what is the new word, had.


The main emphasis of the Applied Mathematics course is on developing the ability of the students to start with a problem, in non-mathematical form and transform it into mathematical language. It focuses on the application of Mathematics in other domains using topics such as Statistics, Probability, discrete mathematics and Particle Mechanics. The Pure Mathematics syllabus is more abstract in nature and while some of the content may have applications in other fields of study, the focus is on developing competence in mathematics itself in preparation for further studies. Topics covered include Algebra, Trigonometry, Geometry, Complex Numbers and Calculus. Modified on: Mon, 7 Dec, 2015 at 10:34 AM Did you find it helpful?Send feedback Sorry we couldn't be helpful.

Turnitin is used in Aalto University to prevent plagiarism among other things. Teachers may ask the students to return an assignment or a thesis to Turnitin submission box. Students can also use Turnitin by themselves to check the originality of their assignment or thesis. Information resources are used for theses, essays etc. to support presented claims, or alternatively to provide challenging views that you wish to criticise. Plagiarism, or unacknowledged borrowing, refers to representing another person’s material as one’s own without appropriate references. This includes research plans, manuscripts, articles, other texts or parts of them, visual materials, or translations (Finnish Advisory Board on Research Integrity 2012, p. 33)


Microwave ovens allow a maximum leak amount of only 5mW, which is really small1. If more radiation were let out, you would experience microwave burns2. Microwave radiation is non-ionizing. Differently from x-rays and gamma rays, the microwave photons simply do not have enough energy to cause cancer through ionization3. Given the previous well-known facts: - If you are not burned, you are not being affected by microwaves because they don't leak out. - If you were to get burned, you would still have no ionizing radiation impact. Finally, research shows that microwave-length radiation does not cause cancer, but the studies relate mostly to different kinds of microwaves (for example the waves emitted by a cell phone)4.


Bomb Threats - Telephone Telephone threats can be received by any person at anytime, but usually will be received by a main switchboard operator or persons in a sensitive area. If you receive a telephone threat: - Keep the caller on the line as long as possible. Listen carefully. Note the time of call, the telephone number called and telephone number of the caller if available. - Write down any pertinent information such as background noises, gender of caller, and voice pitches and pattern. - Ask the caller the following questions: - Where is the bomb? - When will it explode? - What does the bomb look like? - What kind of bomb is it? - What is your name and motive for placing the bomb? - Are you an employee? - Call 9.911 immediately. - Always err on the side of safety by evacuating the area if there is any possible danger.

Winter at the Arctic Circle There are rumours about the arctic winter in Vesterålen and many are untrue. We are indeed situated at 68° north but the warm winds which come from the gulfstream drives the temperature to around 0 °C. Many of the other villages on the Eastern side of the Vesterålen, including Sortland will be much colder. The darkest day in winter still provides daylight from 9am – 3pm in Vesterålen. Not everything you have read about the cold dark winters in Norway is true. Just like most of Northern Scandinavia from the middle of November through to the middle of January we do not see the sun. We still have at least 5 hours of daylight with beautiful colors. That is the reason why we mean not necessary the aurora borealis when we are talking about the northern lights.


Easy Chinese Characters – 的(de) The function of 的 (de) is like the sign (’). A bit of imagination is needed to remember 的 (de). The right part (白) means “white and clear” and the left part (勺) is “spoon”, so this Chinese apostrophe (’) is clearly 白 seen in a soup spoon (勺). “我” (wǒ) is “I”, “我的” is “mine”.

Learning conducted via electronic media, typically on the Internet. eLearning programs can vary in nature and design. eLearning is also referred to as computer-based training, web-based training, and online learning. eLearning offers results that are quick, effective and offer higher retention rates than traditional training methods alone. eLearning increases retention rates by delivering training in small increments. Not only are retention rates more than 50 percent higher with proper eLearning, but the learning curve flattens. Because there’s no back-and-forth between students and instructors and no classroom antics and diversions, eLearning can cover up to five times the material presented in the classroom while increasing retention rates.


Land and On Water Management Plans (L&OWMP) have been developed for many of our lakes, dams and reservoirs. L&OWMPs are facilitated by GMW and are developed and implemented by the community. They are reliant on community ownership and the ability to attract funding. The plans are implemented by L&OWMP Implementation Groups. Their activities including planning and sourcing external funding for initiatives that address a range of land and on-water issues such as: increasing community awareness and involvement recreation and tourism maintaining healthy ecosystems the operational management of lakes, dams and reservoirs, including filling and releases, are outside the scope of the plan. Each Plan has its own implementation group made up of twelve people including community representatives, local councils, recreation groups and other agencies. Land and On Water Management Plans


Church of St. George at Evcik The Church of St. George at Evcik is on the cliff next to the end of Anastasian Wall by the Black Sea. The church perhaps dates to the 10th or 11th century. It has a central plan measuring 7.5 x 6.5 meters with a triple apse, with the northern and southern apses were added at a later date. A cistern was discovered below the narthex. An inscription recording work on the Anastasian Wall during the reign of Heraclius was used in the construction of the church. Below the narthex was a cistern.

Of Wheat and Men: Changes in Genetic Markers for Celiac Disease Over Time In the recent past, sequencing of ancient human genomes has become increasingly common, leading to an immense amount of data to be explored. For this study we focused on comparing a set of ancient individuals with modern populations on behalf of markers for celiac disease. We analyzed a panel of 64 SNPs related to this disease, trying to detect changes in allele frequencies between ancient and modern individuals. We hope to make a contribution to the subject of genetic health throughout human history. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.

Here are two lessons on interviewing witnesses (cognitive interview) and suspects (ethical interview). Each lesson assumes you have set advance reading from whichever textbook or other source you are using. Lesson one starts with students making comparisons between standard police interviews and cognitive interviews using this visible thinking routine for comparing. The main application activity is to write a letter to a chief constable persuading her to adopt cognitive interviewing in her force. I’ve found that some students get all up tight about writing an essay because it smells like assessment and they do a better job if they write a letter instead, even though the same skills are required. The slideshow gives a structure for the lesson.


The City of Roanoke Stormwater Utility has partnered with the U.S. Geological Survey to install nine precipitation gauges around the City. These gauges will be used to understand the timing, quantity, and distribution of the precipitation in the tributary watersheds that flow into the Roanoke River. This will help the City to better plan for stormwater control, flood preparedness, and emergency response. The precipitation gauges installed (pictured left) are OTT Pluvio 200 gauges which operate with an internal weighing bucket. They are highly accurate with algorithms that compensate for wind, temperature, and evaporation.


Soccer Drill Demonstration All players have a bib tucked into the back of their waistband (must be visible). On the whistle, players attempt to catch as many bibs as possible - whilst keeping their own one in the back of their waistband. With younger players complete this practice on a time basis so that players are not automatically 'out' when they lose a tail - instead they have lost one life. Players work in pairs. Each person tries to catch their partner's tail. Drill tags: bibs, running, tails

The work of Colwyn Trevarthen at Edinburgh University demonstrates that the child is born equipped for social interaction, and expecting to be a subject among subjects. The child interacts with its environment, both natural and social. The video evidence he has collected is so compelling that no room is left for doubt: the child’s world is one of intersubjectivity. In one piece of video we see a father holding hidden in his coat a premature baby. The baby utters short passages of squeaks, pausing for a response from the adult. A dialogue is established in which both parent and child play equal and determining roles. The roots of social interaction, language and musicality are revealed.

Argumentative imagery in Donne's Poem Answers 2Add Yours Which poem? A Valediction Forbidding Mourning - there is a huge amount of imagery here, but it is all used to convince his wife not to mourn while he is away from her. Every reference, to sublunar lovers, to gold that stretches but never breaks, the image of the compass in which she is the fixed foot and he is the moving foot, all point to his telling her that their love will endure and that she has nothing to worry about while he is gone. That is, indeed, argumentative. John donne is one of the most important poet of metaphysical poetry , the metaphysical poetry relies on using strange conceits, paradox and an argumentative imagery. Most of donne's poems were written in the metaphysical age , so they follow the style of the metaphysical poem . this is only what I think .

The Virginia creeper plant, also called American ivy, ampelopsis and woodbine, can cause a skin rash, according to the Poison Ivy, Oak & Sumac Information Center. The Virginia creeper plant has sap that contains oxalate crystals, a substance known to cause skin irritation and rash. The Virginia creeper plant grows wild and invasively in some areas but is considered an ornamental plant in others. It is often mistaken for poison ivy because its leaves are also red in the spring before turning green later, according to the Poison Ivy, Oak & Sumac Information Center. Virginia creeper often grows alongside poison ivy as it prefers the same growing conditions.

4th & 5th grade students at IAA take violin lessons as part of our One Strings program. To kick off their year of playing stringed instruments, 5th grade students did observational drawings of several different instruments using charcoal. Their goal was to create a dynamic composition and to use line as well as light, medium, and dark values. Compositional choices students made include zooming in on one part of the instrument, cropping the image to create visual interest, and placing the instrument off center to draw the viewer in.

There is no luminiferous aether but that doesn't mean that space is empty. It is made up something which provides medium to light. Einstein says any such things would slow down the light. Yes it is slowing down the light that is why light is limited to 3,00,000 Km/s. Speed of a wave depends on the properties of its medium. Space is determining the speed of light and thus the scale of time that is why there is a sequence of events in the universe. In the absence of this limit to the speed of light, all events would have happened instantaneously.


I am having trouble composing a piano piece, because i don't know how to correctly notate a specific chord that i have used. The notes are as such in order: C,F,A,E The traditional F Major 7th chord uses the notes in the order F,A,C,E, however i do not want to write it like that. First i thought of using an inverted 7th chord to notate it, but none of them matched. I also thought of using an Fmaj 2nd inversion add 7th, but that didn't appear to exist either. Next, i thought to notate it as the diadic F5 chord, then add a c bass notes: F5/C then add a 7th: F5/C+7, but this does not appear to be correct visually, and as far as my research has found isn't an existing notation. Are any of these, correct? Do they have their own symbols that i have not discovered yet, or have i missed something? If anyone could shed some light on this subject I would be very greatful,

Build, Beaver, Build! GradeKindergarten - Grade 3 The first year of a beaver kit’s life is full of new discoveries and dangers. But the most important lesson the kit learns is how to take care of his family’s home. The lodge where he lives is protected by a long dam that many beavers have worked to build over the years. As the kit grows up, he helps repair and add to the family dam—and begins to build a life for himself. Set at what is believed to be the world’s longest beaver dam, Build, Beaver, Build—by award-winning author Sandra Markle—provides a glimpse of beaver life, seen through the eyes of one young beaver and his family. |Build, Beaver, Build!: Activities||558 KB| - Available in limited formats - Soon!

Korean folk games express people¡¯s sentiments and emotions.


ARCO Latino Art Fair A guerrilla performance created by Coco Fusco, Juan Pablo Ballester and Maria Elena Escalona was presented at the 1997 ARCO Latino Art Fair. Dressed in ski masks and Quechua knit hats, the three performers sold t-shirts with printed text. The t-shirt text compares and contrasts the price of Latin American art in Europe and the cost of selling it at ARCO, with the cost of surviving as an undocumented Latin American immigrant in Spain. Over three days, the performers were removed several times by ARCO security for not having paid for space to sell their wares, then were stopped from selling inside a booth, and finally were ejected for keeping their faces covered. All the t-shirts printed were sold with at least two in museum collections. "Sudaca" is a derogatory term used in Spain to refer to Latinos, meaning “dirty southerner”.


Hoping for a breakthrough The refugee crisis Already in 1936, the League of Nations had appointed Sir Neill Malcolm as “High Commissioner for German Refugees.” In light of the increasing stream of refugees from Nazi Germany, an inter-governmental conference was convened in February 1938 in Geneva under the aegis of the League of Nations. The orthodox paper Der Israelit reports on the first day of the gathering, which was attended by delegates from 14 states. Through the Nuremberg Laws, Jews had been downgraded from “citizens of the Reich” to mere “subjects.” As soon as they left Germany, they could be stripped off their citizenship entirely. Two members of the liaison committee, N. Bentwich from London and M. Seroussi from Paris, therefore demanded the extension of refugee status to stateless migrants as well.


Often some sensible and no-cost accommodations in the classroom are enough to keep an anxious child in the game at school. When a child's anxiety is interfering with any aspect of their educational experience or learning they are entitled to help. The following are general recommendations for children who are having school-related difficulties. These ideas can be shared with your child's teacher or guidance counselor, these may need to be formally documented with an Individualized Educational Plan (IEP), or a 504 plan. (See Sample Accommodations for Anxious Kids). These recommendations can be printed and shared with school personnel. Brought to you by The Children's and Adult Center for OCD and Anxiety.


La huella hídrica es el volumen total de agua utilizado para producir un producto o un servicio consumidos por un individuo o comunidad. According to the United Nations, mankind consumes half the water resources available in practice. But this use is not homogeneous. The water footprint is a way of measuring this consumption by regions or countries of the world. Virtual water consumption by area Darker areas are those with the highest consumption. (Source: Johns Hopkins University) In water consumption, climatic parameters are also involved, such as evapotranspiration, which is water that plants lose as a result of heat. Number of months of a year with water shortage The map shows the number of months per year with water scarcity, ie, where evapotranspiration exceeds rainfall.


the way the explanation is written suggests you are talking about more than one pronoun – not just ‘me-moi’. Are there others? i.e. 2- THEY are placed after the verb……… Yes, there are other pronouns, the following lesson will explore them - But in the example, "Donne-moi ça!" ( Give that to me !) it could be Donne-lui = Give him Donne-nous = Give us Donne-leur = Give them Hope this helps! Sign in to submit your answer Don't have an account yet?

Solar power describes many methods of harnessing energy from the light of the Sun. It has been present in traditional building for centuries, but has become of increasing interest as the environmental costs and limited supply of other power sources such as fossil fuels are realized. As the Earth orbits the Sun, it receives approximately 1,400 W / mÂ² of energy, as measured by the solar constant. Of the energy received, roughly 19% is absorbed by the atmosphere, while clouds on average reflect a further 35% of the total energy. The generally accepted standard is 1020 watts per square meter at sea level.


Linear Algebra with Differential Equations/Homogeneous Linear Differential Equations/Imaginary Eigenvalues Method When eigenvalues become complex, mathematically, there isn't much wrong. However, in certain physical applications (like oscillations without damping) there is a problem in understanding what exactly does an imaginary answer mean? Thus there is a concerted effort to try to "mathematically hide" the complex variables in order to achieve a more approachable answer for physicists and engineers. Essentially, we have a solution that in part looks like this: But by Euler's formula: Now we distribute the terms: Since this is a linear combination of two terms, is a constant (complex, but still a constant), each part is an element of the set of solutions and the general solution can be constructed therein.


Source: Teacher Development, Volume 17, Issue 2, 2013, pages 246-264 This study investigated the relationship between teachers’ beliefs about quality questions and their questioning behaviours in terms of questioning purposes, content focus, students’ cognitive level, wording and syntax. The participants were thirteen beginning EFL (English as a foreign language) teachers working at Vietnam National University. Qualitative data collected through an open-ended questionnaire survey and classroom observation were analysed using qualitative content analysis. Findings show that although there was a general congruence between teachers’ beliefs and practices, there were discrepancies between what the teachers believed and what they actually did in the class with respect to the four specified features.


Pink eye is a form of conjunctivitis that can have a combination of multiple symptoms such as itching, burning, stinging, eye discharge, swelling, and watering. Some forms of pink eye are viral and bacterial and are very contagious. To stay on the safe side, wash your hands often and avoid rubbing your eyes and spreading it to others. If within a day or two a cool, wet compress is still not helping, it's best to see your eye doctor for a diagnosis and possible treatment. Scheduling An Eye Exam


- Life at UTC Reading» - Explore lessons at UTC Reading» - Explore Key Stage 4 lessons» - Year 10 Physics: Specific heat capacity (November 2016)» Year 10 Physics: Specific heat capacity (November 2016) As part of the new AQA GCSE syllabus, students are required to take part in this practical lesson on specific heat capacity. Students were required to determine the specific heat capacity of one or more materials. The investigation involved linking the decerase of one energy store to the increase in temperature and subsequent increase in thermal energy stored. An electric heater was used to heat up a block of copper. Students measured the mass, the work done by the heater and the temperature, before plotting a graph of temperature against work done. They then used the gradient of this graph and the mass of the block to determine the specific heat capacity of copper.


The lantern festival always is on the 15th day of the first month of the Chinese Lunar calendar. Families gather up and place lanterns outside their homes and launch them into the night sky! Most lanterns are red in color, and they all basically represent a wish for good fortune, money, health, luck! On this day, Chinese people will appreciate lanterns and guess lantern riddles. To see the lion dance. We have to eat sweet dumplings! Let me share some lantern riddles with you 1.What is black when it’s clean and white when it’s dirty? 2.What kind of water should people drink in order to be healthy? 3.Why is the letter E so important?


The Grey Teal is almost all grey-brown. Each feather of the body is edged with buff, except on the rump. The chin and throat are white, the bill is dark green and the eye is red. The secondary wing feathers have glossy blue-black patch, broadly bordered and tipped with white. In flight, a large white wedge is visible on the underwing. The Grey Teal is one of the smaller Australian ducks. Measures between 40–60 cm in length. The male and females weigh roughly around the same 800g–1.2 kg. Gray Teals usually eat water plants stems, seeds, and insects. They are found in New Guinea, Australia, New Zealand, Vanuatu and Solomon Islands. The Grey Teal nests near freshwater lakes and marshes, usually on the ground, but also in tree holes or rabbit burrows.


Author: Calestous Juma, Professor of the Practice of International Development; Director, Science, Technology, and Globalization Project; Principal Investigator, Agricultural Innovation in Africa Africa is a youthful continent: nearly 41% of its population is under the age of 18. To address the unique challenges of this demographic structure, the African Union (AU) has adopted a 50-year Agenda 2063 to help guide the socioeconomic transformation of the continent with particular reference to the youth. One of the objectives of Agenda 2063 is to reposition the continent as a strategic player in the global economy through improved education and application of science and technology in development. The AU’s Science, Technology and Innovation Strategy for Africa, 2024 (STISA-2024) provides an intial 10-year framework for pursuing this goal.


Nuthatch Nest Boxes The Nuthatch requires a small nest box with a 32mm entrance hole. the Nuthatch box should be positioned approximately 3 meters or more above ground with a clear flight path to the bird box. The nuthatch will plaster mud around the entrance, side and roof of the nest cavity, the floor is lined with wood chippings and leaves and then egg laying starts between early April and mid June, nuthatches occasionally have two broods. They can lay upto 8 eggs which are white with reddish specks, incubation takes 2 - 3 weeks and then the nuthatch chicks will fledge about 3 - 4 weeks later.


The mice wanted us to plan a fruit salad for them so we decided what fruits we could make a fruit salad with. We listened carefully to which sounds we could hear at the start of a word. Look we made mice with shapes after we read the story of the Town Mouse. We used tools to glue and stick the shapes on to paper. We chose our own shapes and talked about the names of the shapes we had chosen. Our 2d shape mice! We thought about the differences between the town and the country! We used some pictures to show things in a town and things in the country. We know there are offices and cinemas in the town whereas in the countryside there are tractors and forests. Building a house for the Town Mouse and printing our own shape mice!


Author(s): Battersby, John On the grim, overcast dawn of 12 October 1866, a force of Pakeha militia and allied Maori warriors grouped outside a riverside pa some fourteen kilometres inland from Napier. Inside the pa, Maori followers of the Pai Marire movement waited for the first move. The short and tragic Battle of Omarunui was about to begin. Little has been written about the events of that day in the Hawke’s Bay. The story has been almost entirely lost in history, despite the role it played in forging alliances and mindsets among leading protagonists in the New Zealand Wars including Renata Kawepo, Donald McLean, Tareha Te Moananui and George Whitmore.


Perhaps the most wide spread native sparrow in North America, the Song Sparrow is also the most variable in appearance. More than 30 distinct geographical forms have been described. It is almost always found in dense vegetation along water courses, but it also makes it into suburban gardens in the east. Inland this species eats mainly seeds, but along the coasts it also eats marine invertebrates. The nest is placed on or near the ground in dense vegetation and made of grass and leaves. The four-digit banding code is SOSP.


This time, in our school trip, 5th graders went to RAINFER (Primates Rescue & Rehabilitation Center). Their main goal is to rescue and rehabilitate primates in need, coming from dreadful and illegal situations, such as circuses, zoos in terrible conditions or households where they are kept as pets. 5th graders participated in different workshops that allowed them to develop skills based on animal conservation in an active way. They also had time to reflect on human impact on the natural environment and food chains. A unique experience to see rescued chimpanzees and different primates while learning to respect and protect the animals and their environment.


The Battle of the Somme continued through the summer and fall of 1916. The Allies had hoped for a quick breakthrough on the German front. However, by the end of September, the Allies had gained fewer than eight kilometres of territory. Both sides had experienced large losses; each day of fighting averaged a combined 8500 casualties. The Battle of the Transloy Ridges*, an offensive that took place from October 1-18, 1916, was a continuation of the Battle of the Somme. The Newfoundland Regiment's role in this offensive began on October 12. It was the Regiment's first action in the Somme region since Beaumont-Hamel.


Very few locations are as iconic as Easter Island. This UNESCO World Heritage Site – known as Rapa Nui by the local community – is truly one of the most treasured places on Earth, with its giant Moai statue heads recognized by people in every corner of the globe. Despite this grand stature, and the fact that it is one of the most remote inhabited places on the planet, Rapa Nui is not immune to the scourge of plastic pollution and the challenges that rapid population and tourism growth creates for waste management. In addition, globalization presents numerous issues related to loss of cultural identity. One of the highest concentrations of microplastics Over 20 tons of trash produced daily Population has doubled over 20 years, to 7,750 500% increase in tourist visitors over 20 years (Over 100,000 tourists per year by 2020)


Radon is an odorless, colorless gas that is considered hazardous to health because of its radioactive property. There is a direct link between inhaling radon and lung cancer. In fact, more than 21,000 people die of lung cancer in the US every year, as a result of radon poisoning. Lead is toxic to human beings and can cause several health effects. Lead is found everywhere, in the soil, air, and water. Even your home is not safe from it. Most people are exposed to lead from fuels like leaded gasoline, lead based paints, and lead from industrial facilities.


Para-aramid fibers are a class of very special synthetic fibers, being heat resistant to traction. The excellent properties of paraaramides result from both chemical and physical microstructure. Thus, the aromatic nuclei in the “spinal cord” of the chain produce a high thermal resistance. In addition, in para-aramid fibers the orientation of the extended chain through the bonds leads to the formation of a polymer. They are used in: - aerospace and military applications - for body armor and ballistic fabrics - in bicycle tires - marine armor, etc.


Once we have managed to join pieces together to form blocks, we then treat those blocks as single units. We move them around like they are one piece, and we try not to break them up. Treating these blocks as single units, we can once again use the align/join technique to join them. If we rotate the front face 90 degrees anti-clockwise, the two blocks will be aligned and in a perfect position to be joined. Click play to watch the solution.


This tan cotton broadcloth is a very light brown, with definite hints of yellow. It is like a double dose of cream broadcloth. This fabric is machine washable, sturdy, and soft. It is a high quality, 100 percent cotton fabric. Originally, broadcloth was made from wool. It played an important role in medieval costume. Today, this versatile material is used in clothing, upholstery, and crafts. Broadcloth is densely woven, with a medium drape. This allows it to flow and also to hold a crease. Broadcloth is a dense, high thread count fabric that resists tears, making it well-suited for clothing and crafts.


Modernist composer who was an American original, pioneering eclectic and experimental music, polytonality, and tone clusters. Some historians credit him with composing the 20th century's first radical musical work "Central Park in the Dark" in 1906. He went to Yale University to continue his musical schooling, where he was educated by the famed His experimental music fused American church music with European art music, along with other influences. His father, George Ives, served as a U.S. Army bandleader during the American Civil War. He married Harmony Twitchell in 1908. He composed a song for William McKinley's 1896 presidential campaign.


Most of us are disgusted by the idea of ticks. And if you’re a parent, the thought of these tiny arachnids embedding themselves into our children’s skin is 10 times worse. Unfortunately, kids are at real risk. The CDC reports that kids 5 to 9 years of age are most at risk of Lyme disease. Overall, some 75,000 youth are diagnosed with the illness each year, and that doesn’t account for other tick-borne illnesses or the cases of Lyme that go undiagnosed.


Calendar ( 1 set) ACMMG021 MA1-13MG To complete this activity participants build a calendar. It may be played in pairs or in groups up to 6. The first player spins to find out which month is being treated, and turns over a "Start" card. All players follow the instruction on the "Start" card and put the appropriate ordinals on their calendar. In the picture the "Start" card read, "The first day of the month is a Friday." All players had to put "1st" on the first Friday and then add the ordinals to the 28th because February, with 28 days, had been spun. There is provision for both 28 and 29 days in February on the spinner. Correctly answering the questions ensures that students are able to read the calendar. 1 set = 6 boards, 6 sets ordinals, 1 set each of "Start" and "Question" cards, and a months/days spinner.


Science all around us! This week Wonwell class took their Science learning outside. Our focus this half term is on sound, which links to our project 'Beat Band Boogie'. The children had to fold a piece of paper into 4 and draw themselves in the middle. They found a space outside and listened carefully. When they heard a sound they had to draw it to show whether it was in front, behind , left or right of them. We linked this learning to points on a compass and compared the sounds we heard with other people. Science in action in the real world! Please click here to see more photos.


SOLARIS will be used at the re-accelerated (ReA) beam facility at National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) and when completed, at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), both at Michigan State University. SOLARIS will have two modes of operation. In one mode, it will operate like the HELIOS spectrometer pioneered at Argonne, allowing for high-resolution studies of direct reactions. In the other mode, it will be used with the Active Target Time Projection Chamber (AT-TPC) developed at NSCL, where reactions with weak (most exotic) beams can be studied. The SOLARIS white paper can be downloaded below. SOLARIS is the outcome of the international ReA Solenoidal Spectrometer Projects meeting held at Argonne National Laboratory in March 2017. TEST.

An Early History of Satellites Timeline The Space Race of the 1950s saw the Soviet Union and United States competing to send the first artificial satellite into orbit. By 1957 the first stage of the race had been won, with the Soviet Union launching Sputnik. Made possible by advances in technology, Sputnik was only the beginning and since then the number of satellites in orbit has rocketed, with over 6,000 being launched in the years that have followed. Made by Broadband Wherever


Inverted microscope, called "photographic and chemical" microscope, invented by Filippo Pacini and built by Angiolo Poggiali. The brass base carries a brass box containing a total-reflection prism. In the box are inserted the mobile stage and the inclined body-tube, fitted with a Huygenian eyepiece. Coarse focus is by moving the stage by rackwork. Fine focus is by adjusting the stage tilt with a knob. Two tapered pillars inserted in the base support the illumination mirror and a condenser lens. There are also a body-tube carrying a prism and a negative lens. This body-tube was probably used with a photographic camera.


Asthma Symptoms & Diagnosis If you have asthma, you might hear a whistling sound when you breathe (wheeze). You might also cough, feel your chest tighten, or become short of breath. Asthma symptoms, severity, and frequency vary from person to person. In some cases, the asthma attack may be severe enough to become life threatening. Besides a thorough medical history and physical exam, you will likely undergo a lung function test. This test will measure the amount of air you breath into and out of your lungs and how fast you blow the air out of your lungs. It is also used to measure the amount of oxygen in your blood. Your doctor may also have you undergo other tests to rule out other diseases or conditions.


Arthritis is the inflammation of one or more joints. The two main types of arthritis are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis occurs when your joint’s cartilage has been damaged. Rheumatoid arthritis is when your immune system attacks the lining of the joint capsule, which is a membrane that encloses all the joint parts. There are many different options in relieving arthritis symptoms and improving joint function. Notably, a few common treatment options:
