In 1988, the Canadian Council of Ministers of Environment (CCME) identified used oil as Canada’s largest single-source of potentially hazardous material if not properly managed. It subsequently requested that the industry, through the Canadian Petroleum Products Institute (CPPI), renamed Canadian Fuels Association (CFA), address the issue. The CPPI established the Used Oil Task Force which culminated in the 1991 Montreal Meeting where the recycling focus shifted from the government to sellers of lubricating products. Subsequently, the Western Canadian Used Oil/Container/Filter Industry Task Force realized the importance of harmonizing the collection of used oil materials across western Canada. From this grew the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) program model currently used in nine Canadian provinces.


In the villages of Fiji, apart from Viti Levu, rubella is a disease occurring solely in widely spaced epidemics. Some villages may not be infected for over 20 years and will then contain substantial numbers of susceptible women of child-bearing age. Evidence is produced that haemagglutination-inhibiting (H.I.) antibody to rubella is very long lasting in Fijians. The infectivity of the virus is discussed and it is suggested that, on the average, 50 % of susceptibles are infected in a Fijian village during a rubella epidemic, but there are large variations.

The sand motor The Sand Motor is a large-scale pilot project in which a new, sustainable method of coastal maintenance is surveyed. The Sand Motor is constructed as a peninsula of 21.5 million m3 of sand. Under the influence of wind, waves and currents the sand spreads along the shore, thereby reinforcing the coastline and creating a dynamic area for nature and recreational purposes. The Sand Motor is part of a gigantic research programme in which the government, knowledge institutions and the business community are very closely involved. The first findings about the operation of the Sand Motor are positive. It is expected that after a period of 20 years the Sand Motor will result in 35 hectares of additional beach and dunes. Evaluations: 2016 and 2021

Velociraptor Cousin Exhibited at Wyoming Dinosaur Center THERMOPOLIS, Wyo. (AP) — The skeleton of a nearly 3-foot-tall cousin of the velociraptor will go on display at the Wyoming Dinosaur Center. The museum in Thermopolis opens a new permanent exhibit Friday featuring the fossils and full-size reproduction of the dinosaur informally known as Lori. Paleontologists discovered Lori whose scientific name is Hesperornithoides miessleri in a formation dating to the late Jurassic period near Douglas in 2001. Center paleontologist Bill Wahl says Lori is the earliest troodontid that has been found in North America. It's also the smallest dinosaur that has been found in Wyoming. Troodontids are bird-like predators that have sickle-like claws.


A few weeks ago, I marveled that less than 10% of the archeological finds in the world had been explored. Two kilometers beneath the Black Sea, that fact is on gorgeous display this week with reports of the discovery of an intact Greek trading vessel from about 400 B.C., the oldest shipwreck ever found. Rope, coiled by the crew on a day when it is possible that Socrates and Plato were still breathing in Athens, is still where it was left on the decks of the sunken vessel. There is so much detail left that this single wreck will transform our understanding of ancient shipbuilding. As our world above sinks further into chaos, I’m going to take some solace in knowing that there are still wonders buried in the deep places of the earth.

Day 1: John 15:1-17 Stories: Love One Another 1) What does it mean to bear fruit? Will we be cut off if we don’t produce fruit? What is the difference between pruning and cutting? How can we remain in Jesus? 2) What does it mean if we ask for what we want and it is not done? Does that mean that we are not in Jesus? 3) We are not servants of God – this is one of the most powerful statements of the Bible. By believing and fellowshipping with Jesus, we are granted the rights to be friends of God. That isn’t a trite way of saying we are friends and servants, but that we are actually friends. God calls us friends! He has not held back anything from us. 4) How can we love one another?


Janitorial and sanitation workers face daily hazards from the chemicals they use to clean. Harmful chemicals can be found in glass, metal, and other cleaners, including hydrofluoric acid, nitrilotriacetate, and phosphoric acid. The second hazard comes from contact with bloodborne pathogens. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration established its Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens Standard way back in 1992 to ensure that workers are protected. While it was initially intended for health-care workers, it is relevant to jan/san employees as well.Continue reading “Best Disposable Gloves for the Jan/San Industry”


Freedom Forum Institute > How does criminal libel differ from civil libel? In criminal libel, the theory is that the damage is to the public rather than to a private individual. Therefore, the state becomes the prosecuting entity against an individual speaker. Presumably, the individual’s libelous statement would have to be deemed serious enough to warrant removing the case from the civil realm. The defamation involved in criminal libel could be of another individual, a public official, a government entity, a group, or even a deceased person. Category: Freedom of the Press

Our world is filled with toxins. Everything from the food we eat, the clothes we wear, to the air we breathe are filled with toxins. A study by researchers at two major laboratories found an average of 200 different industrial chemicals and pollutants in umbilical cord blood from 10 babies born in US hospitals. 15 The test group showed a shocking 287 different toxins including pesticides, consumer product ingredients, and wastes from burning coal, gasoline, and garbage. Glutathione is the primary cellular detoxifier and more and more studies are directly linking various diseases to our bodies inability to rid itself of the toxic buildup. 16 Studies have also linked low glutathione production in children to the growing rates of Autism 17 and ADHD. 18

What is newborn screening? Newborn screening is the practice of testing all babies in their first days of life for certain disorders and conditions that can hinder their normal development. This testing is required in every state and is typically performed before the baby leaves the hospital. The conditions included in newborn screening can cause serious health problems starting in infancy or childhood. Early detection and treatment can help prevent intellectual and physical disabilities and life-threatening illnesses.


Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) Hot Isostatic Pressing is used to densify powders or cast and sintered parts at high pressure and at temperatures from 900 °C to 1,250 °C for example for steels and superalloys. The Hot Isostatic Pressing process provides improved stability and mechanical properties of solid parts due to the fine and homogeneous isotropic microstructure. Furthermore Hot Isostatic Pressing permits the use of composite materials and the creation of large and complex shaped components from powders. It is very complementary to other powder metallurgy processes such as Metal Injection Molding (MIM), pressing and sintering, or Additive Manufacturing technologies. The application areas are broad, ranging from offshore applications to aviation, tooling and electronics.

Geoffrey of Monmouth wrote the “Prophesies of Merlin,” the History of the Kings of Britain, and “The Life of Merlin.” “The Prophesies of Merlin” was distributed before it was incorporated into the History of the Kings of Britain. A copy of the History was in the monastery at Bec in Normandy in January 1138. “The Life of Merlin” is the last work Geoffrey wrote. I recommend the following edition of the History. Geoffrey of Monmouth: the History of the Kings of Britain. Latin text edited by Michael D. Reeve. Translated by Neil Wright. 2007, The Boydell Press, Woodbridge. ISBN 978-1-84383-441-0 I use the following online version of “The Life of Merlin.”


Some lunar landers could be designed to remain on the moon as shelters and living or work modules. The lander legs might be designed like jack-up oil rigs and retract to lower the module to the ground. It should be possible to let the landers have some sort of track vehicle movement capability so they could adjust their position to a building site close to the landing pad. Another way to move the landers into position could be with a tow chain fixed to an anchor. Then the landers would need have only built in rollers or wheels rather than mechanical power for-themselves. Of course the mechanical power units if built in to the landers could also be removable and when detached from the landers after moving the landers, be retasked as motors for work at the station- perhaps in manufacturing or extracting materials for building materials. |Central Copernicus Crater Peak- N.A.S.A. image|


Chupacabra Science: How Evolution Made a Mythical Monster Parasites turn coyotes into "goat suckers," scientists say. Flesh-and-blood chupacabras have allegedly been found as recently as June—making the monsters eminently more accessible for study than, say, the Loch Ness monster or Bigfoot. (See "Bigfoot Hoax: 'Body' Is Rubber Suit.") In almost all these cases, the monsters have turned out to be coyotes suffering from very severe cases of mange, a painful, potentially fatal skin disease that can cause the animals' hair to fall out and skin to shrivel, among other symptoms. (Related: "'Balding' Bears: Mangy Mystery in Florida.") For some scientists, this explanation for supposed chupacabras is sufficient. "I don't think we need to look any further or to think that there's yet some other explanation for these observations," said Barry OConnor, a


Water Works ParkWater Treatment Facility Water Works Park has been a source of pride for southeast Michigan since 1879. It served as the first branch of the Detroit Public Library and as an architectural marvel, with a minaret-like stone tower that rose 185 feet in the air. Now that it is home to GLWA’s newest water treatment plant, the park will continue to be a source of high-quality drinking water for years to come. The plant can produce up to 240 million gallons of water of unquestionable quality per day and is the largest plant in Michigan to use ozone, a disinfectant more potent than chlorine.


Regret is painful. When you regret your choices or actions you will feel regret, guilt or sorrow. You blame yourself that you could have done things differently.

Yes, even healthy food options can make us tired. Although the potassium found in bananas is actually a source of pure energy, this healthy fruit also contains L-tryptophan, a well-known amino acid that is transformed into 5-HTP, a.k.a. oxitriptan in the brain. How can this amino acid affect our energy? Well… in the brain, oxitriptan is converted into two hormones: serotonin and melatonin. And while serotonin can improve mood, the latter, melatonin is responsible for regulating our internal clocks, making us sleepy after eating bananas. You can banish fatigue by pairing bananas with nuts or Greek yogurt.


Embryo Transfer: An embryo is a multicellular diploid eukaryote in its earliest stage of development, from the time of the first cell on until birth hatching, or germination. In humans, it is called an embryo until about eight weeks after fertilization (i.e. ten weeks after the last menstrual period or LMP), and from then it is instead called a fetus. The development of the embryo is called embryogenesis. In organisms that reproduce sexually, once a sperm fertilizes an egg cell, the result is a cell called the zygote, which possesses half the DNA of each of its two parents.In plants, animals, and some protists, the zygote will begin to divide by mitosis to produce a multicellular organism. The result of this process is an embryo.


Solar Soil Sensor Add this soil moisture sensor to your indoor potted plants to let you know when to water them. This checks the moisture level and either blinks an LED or 'chirps' to remind you to water the plant. It is solar powered, so will never need batteries! It uses an ultra-capacitor to store the solar energy, so will work even if left uncharged for a long time. But it will need to be left in sun to recharge – on a sunny windowsill will work perfectly! You can switch off the bleep (in case it starts bleeping at 3am...). It flashes an LED too. You can set the moisture level for activation as well. It was designed as a fun and interactive way introduce solar power and improve soldering skills. This kit includes: Full construction details (including PCB design, firmware and instructions) are available here: We also wrote a blog post on the design of this unit here. We Also Recommend


Tanach in Context Students in Miss Kramer’s freshman and junior Navi classes last week created a timeline that combines Jewish history and secular world history. The goal was to give historical context to our people’s history, demonstrating events like: the Ramban lived before the printing press, Abraham Lincoln was born one year earlier than Rabbi Yisrael Salanter (the founder of the Mussar Movement) and Shakespeare lived while the Turks ruled over Israel. The freshman class focused on the timeline the events around the Purim story, while the juniors focused on the timeline of the order of the Kings and the Naviim. The classes were able to see Jewish events in the context of other well known historical events.


Sticking with a consistent sleep routine—a regular bedtime, and a regular wake time—strengthens your body’s circadian rhythms and the biological cues (like melatonin release) that help you fall asleep, according to Reader’s Digest. If you slept poorly the night before, you may want to slide into bed ahead of schedule. But this can actually make sleeplessness worse. People with insomnia frequently have irregular sleep-wake cycles. Hitting the sack unusually early may garner you some “extra” sleep in the early part of the night, but you’re likely to wake up earlier than normal, throwing your sleep routine even more off-kilter. Aim to have your bedtime deviate by no more than 30 minutes from one night to the next.

Bitcoin (BTC) is an innovative payment network and a new kind of money. It is the first decentralized digital currency, as the system works without a central bank or single administrator. The network is peer-to-peer and transactions take place between users directly, without an intermediary. Bitcoin is open-source; its design is public, nobody owns or controls Bitcoin and everyone can take part. Through many of its unique properties, Bitcoin allows exciting uses that could not be covered by any previous payment system. Bitcoins are created as a reward for a process known as mining. They can be exchanged for other currencies, products, and services.


Bichitr was an important court painter active during the rein of Akbar the Great’s son, Jahangir (who ruled from 1605 to 1627), as well as Shah Jahan, who built the Taj Mahal. Bichitr was a skilled miniature painter who was possibly raised by the court, which is where he got his early education. He was interested in European painting and some of his work blends Indian landscapes with European perspective techniques. In his miniature painting, Jahangir Preferring a Sufi to Kings (c. 1625), Bichitr included a small self-portrait among a group of other portraits of important figures such as Ottoman rulers and even King James I of England, which Bichitr likely copied from another portrait. The self-portrait shows the artist holding a small painting of himself, resulting in a painting within a painting. Bichitr bows respectfully to Jahangir, the Mughal ruler.

The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has recently announced the addition of a single-factor authentication into its list of bad practices. Although it is a risky cybersecurity practice as it lacks two-factor authentication and hence, it is regarded as low-security overall. As explained by CISA, “Single-factor authentication is a common low-security method of authentication. It only requires matching one factor—such as a password—to a username to gain access to a system.” Businesses across different sectors have been urged to review CISA’s Bad Practices list. This way, they can take necessary steps to address any security weaknesses within their systems. For more such updates follow us on Google News ITsecuritywire News.


Previously, the Iranians had outnumbered the Iraqis on the battlefield, but Iraq expanded their military draft (pursuing a policy of total war), and by 1984, the armies were equal in size. By 1986, Iraq had twice as many soldiers as Iran. By 1988, Iraq would have 1 million soldiers, giving it the fourth largest army in the world. Some of their equipment, such as tanks, outnumbered the Iranians’ by at least five to one. Iranian commanders, however, remained more tactically skilled.

Roberts Settlement remains fixture in Hamilton County Free Black people were some of the first to settle the wilderness of Hamilton County in 1835.Escaping the growing risk of enslavement down South, three men set off on a journey to establish a new home. Some parts remain today. Several of the founders are laid to rest on this land known as Roberts Settlement. When they came here in the 1830s, all of this area was the wilderness, but descendants say their bravery helped turn this place into a home that would eventually grow into a community of several hundred. The Roberts Settlement church meeting house hasn’t changed much since the mid-1800s, so it gives you a literal look at some of the history developed here.


Electrolytic conductance can be measured experimentally in a number of ways. The most common method is to measure the electrical current through a solution of electrolyte using an ammeter. This is usually done by placing two electrodes in the electrolyte solution and applying a voltage across them. The current is then measured and the electrolytic conductance is calculated from the ratio of the applied voltage and the measured current. Other methods of measuring electrolytic conductance include impedance spectroscopy, conductivity cells, and potentiometric measurements.

With that yearly spook-fest called Halloween nearly upon us, it seems appropriate to talk about owls, which have long been associated with all things spooky, along with spiders, black cats, witches and goblins. But rather than run in fright from the idea of an owl at night, I suggest we should all take a moment to be inspired by their unique abilities and all we can learn from them. Owl physiology can give us insights not only into our vision and hearing, but also into the technology of silent flight. Take a look at this week’s special post, What Owls Can Teach Us About Hearing, Sight, and Silent Flight. Stay safe this Halloween season!

Though Lanling County of Shandong province, China, has 1.46 million people, not one has contracted Covid-19. This is despite the fact that more than 10,000 farm workers from Lanling sell their crops, primarily garlic and ginger, in Wuhan, the epicenter of the Covid-19 pandemic. Most went home for the Chinese New Year, the Spring Festival, yet they did not bring the coronavirus with them. What sets the people of Lanling apart from those in Wuhan is that the former grow garlic and ingest large quantities of it on a daily basis. Garlic, which has long been recognized as a strong antiviral, keeps the immune systems of the people of Lanling strong and healthy, able to ward off Covid-19. So, don’t be afraid of garlic’s odor and taste. Eat more every day. It could save your life.


The Coldest Day In Wyoming History The coldest recorded temperature ever in the Cowboy State was February 9, 1933. Are you happy to say you were not around yet? At the Riverside Ranger Station in Yellowstone National Park, it dipped – I’m sorry, it plunged – down to -66. Actually, that day broke a number of cold records in the area. -66 was also a record established at West Yellowstone, and -63 in Moran, Wyoming. Established for tourism, the town Northwest of Jackson still serves as one of the main fee collection entrances to Grand Teton National Park.

Gelatin printing is a form of monoprinting in which a gelatin slab is used as a printing plate along with acrylic paints or water-soluble inks to create images. Unlike many other printing methods, very little pressure is required to make monoprints using this technique. Utilize simple mark-making tools, stencils, rubber stamps, and masks to produce a variety of monotype prints using a Gelli plate. Create greeting cards, artist trading cards, frameable art, and more, and leave with your own printing plate! If you like printmaking or are curious about the medium, this class is for you. All supplies provided! Please wear appropriate clothes for an art studio (dress for mess!). Closed-toe shoes are recommended for all classes and required for wood, metal, stone, or other sculpture classes.

Malaria at a Glance Malaria is endemic to the poorest countries in the world, causing 300 to 500 million clinical cases and more than one million deaths each year. More than 90% of malaria deaths occur in Sub-Saharan Africa (approximately 3,000 deaths each day), and almost all the deaths are children younger than 5. In Sub-Saharan Africa, 15% of all disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) are lost to malaria. In highly endemic countries, malaria during pregnancy is a leading cause of low birth weight, one of the primary causes of neonatal mortality. Women living in endemic countries are four times more likely to have symptomatic malaria attacks when they are pregnant.


1 Perspectives on recovery and help The first priority for many parents of an autistic child or adult is to secure help and support. Some parents, and clinicians too, go further, seeing autism as something to be ‘cured’ or eradicated. An objection to this idea, from a neurodiversity perspective, is that autism should be seen as a difference, not as an illness or disability which needs ‘curing’. Even if aiming for a cure is seen as acceptable by some, since autistic children’s communication, social and thinking skills start to diverge from the typical developmental pathway at an early stage, reversing these changes poses a big challenge.


Essential Concept 6: Linear vs Log-Linear Trend Models When the dependent variable changes at a constant amount with time, a linear trend model is used. The linear trend equation is given by When the dependent variable changes at a constant rate (grows exponentially), a log-linear trend model is used. The log-liner trend equation is given by ln A limitation of trend models is that by nature they tend to exhibit serial correlation in errors, due to which they are not useful. The Durban-Watson statistic is used to test for serial correlation. If this statistic differs significantly from 2, then we can conclude the presence of serial correlation in errors.

The Blessingway was a ceremony held by the Navajo to ensure that a person would live long and well. It was usually performed when a person reached a milestone in his or her life. For instance, a Blessingway might be held to celebrate a marriage, a birth, or a girl’s initiation into womanhood. During the Blessingway, singers told of the beginning of the Navajo world and of the struggles of First Man and First Woman. These legendary figures had a baby named Changing Woman. The Navajo believed that they were created by Changing Woman from shavings of her own skin.

Five Innovations in Cell-Based Therapy Human stem cells have been successfully used as treatments for blood cancers for decades, but translating the promise of cell-based treatments for solid tumors or other diseases has been a slow endeavor. This is because of the scientific challenges and clinical impracticalities associated with turning human cells into treatments. Cell-based therapies today use blood stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells (adult pluripotent stem cells found in many different tissues), human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and immune cells such as T cells or natural killer cells, among others. Download this listicle to learn about five recent advances in cell-based therapies including: - Off-the-shelf chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy - Engineered T-cell receptor therapy - Mesenchymal stem cell therapies

Finally, find the box inside the worksheet that lines up with both the number of tornadoes per 1,000 square miles in your area and your wind zone. The color of that box tells you the level of your risk from extreme winds and helps you decide whether to build a shelter.


Oasis de los Osos is part of the Colorado Desert and has many of the plants and animals typically found in the surrounding areas. However, the presence of the perennial creek, Lambs Creek, adds a different dimension, an oasis, to the desert landscape. The access to permanent water allows plant and animal species not normally found in the desert to survive and even at times flourish. It is this mixture of desert and riparian elements that make Oasis de los Osos a unique area for research and education. Here are just a few of the biological and geological sights that await your visit to Los Osos.


Cough Etiquette Questions & Answers Colds and flu have the ability to spread easily via the transmission of the germs through the air, carried on droplets. If dispersal of these droplets can be prevented then infection transmission can be reduced. Cough etiquette can help to contain infectious respiratory droplets at the source. Polio awareness in Western Highlands Province The outbreak of polio in the country recently had prompted health authorities in many of the provinces to be pro-active and conduct awareness on the spread of the virus and how to prevent it. Following the discovery of the virus in Morobe Province in late June, health authorities in provinces have carried out various awareness programs to educate their people on what they needed to do to avoid catching the virus.

A truck (North American and Australian English) or lorry (British and Commonwealth English) is a motor vehicle designed to transport cargo. Trucks vary greatly in size, power, and configuration, with the smallest being mechanically similar to an automobile. Commercial trucks can be very large and powerful, and may be configured to mount specialized equipment, such as in the case of fire trucks and concrete mixers and suction excavators. Modern trucks are powered by either gasoline or diesel engines, with diesel dominance in commercial applications. In the European Union vehicles with a gross combination mass of less than 3,500 kilograms (7,716 lb) are known as light commercial vehicles and those over as large goods vehicles. 在線上免費玩Truck Puzzle App(iOS、Android、Windows)

From Jason and The Argonauts to the ANZACS at Gallipoli. The Story of the Greek island of Lemnos Who, when in light the final dawn is breaking, still faithful, though the world’s regard shall cease, will honour, splendid in triumphant waking, the souls of women, lonely here at peace. —Nurse Vera Britain, May 11, 1917 Written after visiting the graves on Lemnos of the Canadian nurses Sister Munro and Matron Jaggard, who died in service on Lemnos caring for the sick and wounded from Gallipoli. The King of the ancient Gods, Zeus, instructed Hephaestus, the Patron God of Lemnos, to fashion a woman from clay. This first woman was named Pandora, and when on opening her jewellery box she unleashed 10,000 woes on men, only hope was left behind. There are no reviews yet.


- Additional Crew Herman Melville was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet of the American Renaissance period. Among his best-known works are Moby-Dick (1851); Typee (1846), a romanticized account of his experiences in Polynesia; and Billy Budd, Sailor, a posthumously published novella. Although his reputation was not high at the time of his death, the 1919 centennial of his birth was the starting point of a Melville revival, and Moby-Dick grew to be considered one of the great American novels.

Ash class have been learning about Holy week. We started by thinking about Jesus’s journey into Jerusalem – Palm Sunday. We found out that Jesus chose to arrive on a donkey, a very lowly animal. Jesus was very well known in the area, the crowds were pleased to see him and welcomed him shouting, “Hosanna in the Heighest, welcome King”. In class we made palm branches and welcomed Jesus. Next we thought about the last meal that Jesus shared with his disciples. They had gathered in the upper room to celebrate the Jewish festival of Passover. Jesus used bread and wine to help his disciples understand how to remember him.


2021 Volume E104.D Issue 1 Pages 2-11 Fake media has been spreading due to remarkable advances in media processing and machine leaning technologies, causing serious problems in society. We are conducting a research project called Media Clone aimed at developing methods for protecting people from fake but skillfully fabricated replicas of real media called media clones. Such media can be created from fake information about a specific person. Our goal is to develop a trusted communication system that can defend against attacks of media clones. This paper describes some research results of the Media Clone project, in particular, various methods for protecting personal information against generating fake information. We focus on 1) fake information generation in the physical world, 2) anonymization and abstraction in the cyber world, and 3) modeling of media clone attacks.

In probability theory and statistics, variance is the expectation of the squared deviation of a random variable from its mean. Informally, it measures how far a set of numbers is spread out from their average value. Variance has a central role in statistics, where some ideas that use it include descriptive statistics, statistical inference, hypothesis testing, goodness of fit, and Monte Carlo sampling. Variance is an important tool in the sciences, where statistical analysis of data is common. The variance is the square of the standard deviation, the second central moment of a distribution, and the covariance of the random variable with itself.

Baula is a mountain situated in the west of Iceland near Route 1, Bifröst University and the craters of Grábrók. The mountain’s reddish or orange hue is caused by its rhyolite rock composition. Geologically, the mountain is a laccolith, a type of igneous intrusion. It was formed 3.4 million years ago. Baula is characterized by its almost perfect cone. Nearby is Baula’s “little sister,” a mountain called Litla-Baula, where rare columns of rhyolite are found. Together, Baula and Litla-Baula have often been described as Iceland’s most beautiful pair of mountains.

Despite having been present in Uganda for over a century, Maragoli people are not recognized in the Ugandan constitution. They have been at risk of statelessness since 2015, when the National Identification and Registration Authority issued identification cards only to recognized “tribes”. Without identification cards, the Maragoli are unable to access education, healthcare, financial services, and legal documentation. Furthermore, the Maragoli people have been subject to extensive human rights abuses on account of evictions pursued by three multinational agribusiness companies since 2017. Over 35,000 people have been displaced from the Kiryandongo District of Uganda, many of them members of the Maragoli community. Maragoli are especially vulnerable to these evictions due to their lack of legal identification, which makes it difficult to prove ownership of land and pursue legal recourse.


What Supplements Can Help With Low Egg Quality? Concerned about your egg health? Wondering what you can be doing to improve egg quality? We’ve got you covered. Quality and quantity are the two defining characteristics of egg health. To determine fertility, experts need to find out how many eggs the ovaries contain, and most importantly, the quality of the eggs. While egg quantity can’t be changed, research suggests that egg quality has the potential to be improved. Difference between egg quality and egg quantity There are two things experts look at to determine fertility in women: quality and quantity. At birth, the ovary contains around one to two million egg cells, and no more will ever be created. We’re born with all the eggs we will ever have, and the number of eggs in the ovary starts to decline until menopause. This refers to a woman’s egg quantity.


.com, the inventors of this new way of gauging hot and cold: The Exclusive AccuWeather RealFeel Temperature is an index that describes what the temperature really feels like. It is a unique composite of the effects of temperature, wind, humidity, sunshine intensity, cloudiness, precipitation and elevation on the human body--everything that affects how warm or cold a person feels. Temperature by itself gives only part of the picture. Other measures, like the Wind Chill or Heat Index, include temperature and only one additional element like wind speed or humidity and many are designed to measure effects on an inanimate object or an unclothed person. None of them tell what it really feels like to an appropriately dressed person. Only The RealFeel Temperature includes everything that affects how warm or cold a person feels.

In the traditional design process, computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided engineering (CAE) tools are used sequentially. The designer creates the geometry in CAD and verifies it using CAE.With the simulation driven design approach, CAD and CAE are deployed in parallel. CAE, using intelligent technology, automatically determines the optimum geometric configuration, allowing engineers to reach the best performing design, faster. The simulation driven design approach utilizes freeform and other optimization methods to generate more mature design solutions much earlier than in a traditional development process. This allows engineers to create products which are optimized for mass and weight targets at a stage when the cost of change is at its lowest and the potential impact at its highest.

One of the major advantages of 3D printing is in the ability to reduce part count. I’ve always felt that this advantage doesn’t get the respect it deserves. It is hardly mentioned in the media and its implications and advantages seem to not be understood. Therefore here is my attempt at a hopefully convincing article on reducing part count through 3D printing. By reducing part count, we mean that a complex thing such as a rocket engine consists of a 100 parts when made with conventional manufacturing. When we redesign that rocket engine for 3D printing we can then perhaps reduce the total number of parts to three. NASA and other aerospace companies have already found this out by reducing parts from 115 to one or fewer.


“Dandruff” is a common name describing flaking and itching of scalp, resulting in white flakes on the hair or clothing. Severe dandruff is referred to in the clinical establishment as seborrheic dermatitis. More than 50% of adults are afflicted, leading to direct, indirect, and intangible costs exceeding $20 billion USD in 2012. The anti-dandruff shampoo business alone is >$10 billion USD per year. Dandruff research is in the midst of a resurgence, reinvigorated by the discovery of the causal fungal species (Malassezia globosa and restricta) and recent availability of multiple complete Malassezia genomes.


NYC college creates state's first slavery history database NEW YORK (AP) — A City University of New York college says it has compiled the state's first slavery records index. The New York Slavery Index , created by CUNY's John Jay College of Criminal Justice, provides records dating from 1525 through the Civil War. WNBC-TV reports the database includes records, documents, narratives and other sources that identify individual enslaved people and their owners. Karol Mason, the college's president, says the index will mark a significant contribution to remembering the history of slavery in the United States. Visitors to the free public database can search 35,000 records related to New York state, including the names of the slave-owning senators and records of people who escaped slavery through the Underground Railroad. The database was developed by students and professors.

In the morning twilight the crescent Moon rises above the tomb of Cyrus in Pasargadae; a 2500-year old World Heritage Site in southern Iran. Note the surprising appearance of M44 or Beehive star cluster at the image’s upper edge, while in a close conjunction with the Moon. Pasargadae was the first capital of the Achaemenid Empire, the capital of Cyrus the Great (600-530 BC) and also his last resting place. At the height of its power, the Achaemenid Empire encompassed spanned three continents, as far west as Libya to nearly all Middle East, and to Central Asia. Cyrus left an everlasting legacy on leadership as he respected the customs and religions of the lands he conquered. He attributed his success to “Diversity in counsel, unity in command.”

Organic pollutants a threat to pink dolphins A recent study out of China found high levels of pollutants such as DDT in the Pearl River Estuary. The estuary is located in the southern Chinese province of Guangdong, and is nearly 37 miles long and up to 30 miles wide. It is home to the Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin, sometimes called the Chinese pink dolphin, due to its white or pink coloring. In the past decade, these dolphins have seen a population decline of 60%, due in part to pollution of the waters they live in. The research team that conducted this study found polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dichlorodiphenyl trichloroethane (DDT), hexachlorocyclohexane (HCHs), chlordanes (CHL) and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) present in the estuary. Levels of DDT were especially high, with levels of 845 to 179,000 ng/g wet weight.


Following the Reformation, Protestant and Puritan reformers in the 16th and 17th centuries also engaged in iconoclasm, believing religious imagery to be idolatrous and sinful. In either the year 726 or 730, Emperor Leo III banned all images of Christ that showed him in human form. The Iconoclasts argued that any image depicting God in human form either omits His divine nature or confuses it with His human nature. The Seventh Ecumenical Council (787) defended image veneration believing that to venerate an image is to venerate not its substance but the shared likeness. An icon of Christ affirms the reality of the human and the divine. In the year 843 icons and their veneration were restored on the first Sunday in Lent. This Sunday is referred to as the "Sunday of Orthodoxy".


Morinda citrifolia, commonly called noni, has a long history as a medicinal plant and its use as a botanical dietary supplement has grown tremendously in recent years. This has prompted a concomitant increase in research on the phytochemical constituents and biological activity of noni. It has been reported for its antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antitumor, antihelminthic, analgesic, hypotensive, anti-inflammatory and immune enhancing effects. This plant has also been popular as a source of red, yellow and purple dyes. In order to encapsulate the medicinal value and therapeutic effects of the noni fruit and to summarize scientific evidence that supports the traditional claims, a literature review and recent advances in noni research has been detailed.

Yellow Dog Contract definition Yellow dog contracts, also known as yellow-dog clauses or ironclad oaths, are instances where employees agree, under the conditions of employment, not to enter into union relations or become a member of a union. They were used extensively until the 1930s as a means to stop organised union protests and offered a route for companies to pursue union organisers legally. However, it’s key to note that since 1932, yellow-dog contracts are not enforceable following the passing of the Norris-LaGuardia Act (Section 3) in that year. The term ‘yellow dog’ began appearing in the 1920s as a metaphor for what any signee would reduce themselves too by signing away significant constitutional rights. Yellow-dog clauses can also refer to non-competition clauses that prevent employees from working for direct competitors and commercially harming their current employer.

This type of duplicate content can occur because of can result from plagiarism, automated content scrapers, or lazy web design. Duplicate content can also be a problem within one website — if multiple versions of a page exists, Google may not understand which version to show in search results, and the pages are competing against each other. This can occur when new versions of pages are added without deleting or forwarding the old version, or through poor URL structures. Source: HSMAI CHDM Study Guide

A fully qualified domain name (FQDN), sometimes also referred to as an absolute domain name, is a domain name that specifies its exact location in the tree hierarchy of the Domain Name System (DNS) after registering a domain. It specifies all domain levels, including the top-level domain and the root zone. A fully qualified domain name is distinguished by its lack of ambiguity: it can only be interpreted one way. incorrectly configured FQDN can cause mail server malfunction and many other problems. 1.you need to edit /etc/hostname 1. you need to edit /etc/sysconfig/network 2. you need to use 'hostname -F' to setup the hostname -F, --file read host name or NIS domain name from given file hostname -F /etc/hostname 3. edit /etc/hosts to setup FQDN 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost wan_ip server1.anydomain.com server1


On May 11, 1942, about 40 miles south of Ocracoke, a German submarine torpedoed and sank the British vessel HMS Bedfordshire. The 170-foot ship was one of 24 antisubmarine ships loaned to the United States by Winston Churchill. The entire crew of four officers and 33 crewmen drowned. U.S. Coast Guard officers found four of the bodies washed ashore three days later. The soldiers were buried on a plot of land next to a family’s cemetery on land donated to Britain. The Coast Guard still maintains the grave sites and flies a British flag over the graves. Every year on the Friday closest to the May 11th anniversary of the sailors’ deaths, there is a formal military ceremony with invited guest speakers to honor the British sailors. The adjacent village cemetery also provides an interesting look back into Ocracoke Island’s past.

According to UNHCR, there are 70,8 million refugees in the world today. The biggest refugee camp is in Bangladesh and houses the approximately 630,000 Rohingyas who are considered one of the most persecuted people. A people with no future, little hope and a life in limbo. In the “Ultimate Safari”, Nadine Gordimer tells a story of a group of people that has to flee because of war and conflict. We have also heard about the people of West Sahara and their sufferings, being forced from their homes to live in refugee camps since the invasion of West Sahara by Morocco in 1975. Write a blogpost in which you summarize the impressions you are left with after working with both fact and fiction. What do you think the UN can do to solve/improve the situation for the refugees/the refugee challenge? What can the world do? “The Ultimate Safari” by Nadine Gordimer


Cedars of God About Lebanon Cedars The most beautiful cedar trees are those from Bcharri, many of which are estimated to be nearly 2,000 years old having reached a height of some 35 meters with trunks in the region of 14 meters around. There is no more beautiful site than to see these trees with their branches positioned outward with layers of snow as if in prayer! Cedars are among the last survivors of the immense forests that lay across Mount Lebanon in ancient times. The citizens of ancient Byblos, Tyre and Sidon used lebanon cedars to build houses and fashion masts for their ships. Salomon imported wood from here to build his temple in Jerusalem.


Tension headache or tension-type headache is the most common type of primary headache. Tension-type headache pain is often described as constant pressure as if the head were being squeezed in a vise. The pain can radiate from the lower back of the head, neck, eyes, or other muscle groups in the body and typically affects the head bilaterally. They usually occur for a duration longer than 30 minutes, typically four to six hours. The exact cause of tension headaches is well understood, but factors that can trigger or exacerbate tension headaches include stress, anxiety, poor posture, fatigue, and eye strain. Treatment options for tension headaches may include pain relievers, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen, and stress management techniques, such as relaxation exercises, biofeedback, or cognitive-behavioral therapy.


Exploring Our Wiring On Race And Social Change Are you completely free of any preconceived notions of the characteristics of groups of people, even groups you belong to? Few of us are. Maybe we all want a better country, but our ideas for building one differ greatly. And our ability to work as one people is hindered by our notions of who the "other people" are. Max Klau, a developmental psychologist, explores these concepts in his book Race and Social Change: A Quest, A Study, A Call to Action. The book centers on a "separation" exercise used at leadership conferences for young people. Max Klau visits with findings and a guide for the road ahead.


The Epic and Orality: The oldest extant copy of Homer’s Iliad is from the 10th century CE, but there are recorded mentions of the poem as early as about the 5th century BCE. 20th century scholars have theorized that for much of its existence, the poem may well have been an oral work, not a written one.

New research and clinical work is showing that yoga is an effective treatment for chronic pain and those suffering from trauma. Read the original article here. Researchers found that 52 percent of the yoga participants no longer met the criteria for a PTSD diagnosis after treatment, compared with 29 percent of the control group. Their conclusion was that the yoga had helped the women tolerate physical and sensory experiences connected to the fear and helplessness of their trauma. Without treatment, such PTSD sufferers remain disconnected from physical sensations, and common daily actions or events can trigger or reignite their pain all over again. Instead of living in this vicious cycle, Adams said that patients can choose to accept the yoga experience and allow whatever physical response that arises. The reconnection of body and mind can be a powerful healing experience, he said.


Q: "My husband said he's heard that eating mushrooms can be bad for you. It had something to do with a connection with fungal infections. I LOVE mushrooms and would be disappointed if this were the case. Are mushrooms a healthy choice?"Claire A: We asked the New Zealand Food Safety Authority (NZFSA) to respond: "Mushrooms are a fungi but the NZFSA is not aware of any association between mushrooms and human fungal infections. Commercially grown mushrooms that have been handled and stored correctly are safe to eat. Nutritionally, mushrooms are a healthy choice. They are low in energy and a good source of selected vitamins and minerals such as riboflavin, niacin, potassium and selenium."


Knowledge of archetypes dates back at least to the time of Plato. In more recent time the Swiss psychologist Carl Jung developed the idea of archetypes as they relate to the human condition. According to Jung, archetypes contain psychological patterns found in life roles that we are all familiar with, such as the Mother, Child, King, and Servant, as well as universal events or situations, including Initiation or Death and Rebirth. Jungís concept was that "there exists a second psychic system of a collective, universal, and impersonal nature that is identical in all individuals." This collective unconscious, he believed, was inherited rather than developed, and was composed mainly of archetypes.† . <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>


Black Lives Matter Black Lives Matter (BLM) is a civil rights movement and activist network that originated from a hashtag campaign on social media in 2013. The #BlackLivesMatter campaign gained momentum online in the wake of a Florida jury finding George Zimmerman not guilty of the second-degree murder of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed Black high school student whom Zimmerman shot and killed. Zimmerman claimed self-defense, but many people saw his acquittal by a jury as racially biased. As a social movement, BLM has focused largely on the lack of accountability for state violence committed against Black Americans, particularly police violence. The movement has launched an activist network connected through social media that comprises individuals, local and regional groups, and international coalitions. While BLM...Read more

In December 2019, an outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2, began in Wuhan, China (1). The disease spread widely in China, and, as of February 26, 2020, COVID-19 cases had been identified in 36 other countries and territories, including the United States. Person-to-person transmission has been widely documented, and a limited number of countries have reported sustained person-to-person spread.* On January 20, state and local health departments in the United States, in collaboration with teams deployed from CDC, began identifying and monitoring all persons considered to have had close contact† with patients with confirmed COVID-19 (2). The aims of these efforts were to ensure rapid evaluation and care of patients, limit further transmission, and better understand risk factors for transmission.

5. Simchat Torah Fill in the blank (cloze) quiz activity for students in religious schools. Recommended for advanced/Junior High and High School. Click on this link to access the quiz. not finished here... The second day of Shemini Atzeret is called Simchat Torah ("Rejoicing of the Torah"). On this day we conclude, and begin anew, the annual Torah reading cycle. The event is marked with great rejoicing, especially during the "hakafot" procession, in which we march, sing and dance with the Torah scrolls around the reading table in the synagogue. "On Simchat Torah," goes the chassidic saying, "we rejoice in the Torah, and the Torah rejoices in us; the Torah, too, wants to dance, so we become the Torah's dancing feet.


English has a lot of words. It has words for things you may not necessarily think there would be words for – particularly when it comes to language itself. But words are fun, right? Of course they are! So, I thought I’d do a series on obscure linguistic and rhetoric terms. If one or more of them are new to you, then the next time you use a particular device, you’ll…realize that…it’s a thing? Anyway, let’s get started. Antimetabole is the reversal of a phrase when recast in a subsequent clause. Sometimes used for poetic emphasis or humor, sometimes merely for reflection. Think Yakov Smirnoff jokes. - In knowing that the slog hates you, so should you hate the slog. - The slog lives to fail, and in doing so fails to live. Antimetabole. Use it.

What do you normally do with your leftover food? The Japanese don’t waste anything as they have recently developed a way to use leftover school lunches to create energy – approximately 200 kilograms of collected waste from half a dozen local schools are used to create biofuels, and the ethanol collected will then be used as a teaching aid for alcohol lamps while the methane has been targeted to generate electricity inside the experiment facility. While the amount of energy collected isn’t much, it is still better than letting it waste away. Source: Far East Gizmos Comments are closed.


Relationship between the printing shape and the defect after reflow Example shows that the influence on soldering after reflow was confirmed by creating a mask opening so that the printing solder fading becomes a, b, c and d. The image after printing is an image that prints the solder paste and the result of reflow after mounting a condenser chip on it is the image after reflow. This result suggests that the lifting detect occurs at a and c locations. The occurrence of lifting failure was caused by the impossibility of soldering because the contact with the electrode lead of the component became small due to inside solder fading. Even if the outside of land gets fading, the influence on the lifting failure becomes small. To reduce occurrence of the lifting failure, printing shape and misalignment should be managed by the post-printing inspection machine.

A History of Argentina in the 20th Century Luis Alberto Romero and James P Brennan A History of Argentina in the 20th Century is a profound reflection on the “Argentine dilemma” and the challenges that the country faces as it tries to rebuild democracy. Luis Alberto Romero brilliantly and painstakingly reconstructs and analyzes Argentina’s tortuous, often tragic modern history, from the “alluvial society” born of mass immigration to the dramatic years of Juan and Eva Perón, to the recent period of military dictatorship. For this second English-language edition, Romero has written new chapters covering the Kirchner decade (2003–13), the upheavals surrounding the country’s 2001 default on its foreign debt, and the tumultuous years that followed as Argentina sought to reestablish a role in the global economy while securing democratic governance and social peace.


A solar energy combined system produces hot water from the sun for space heating and domestic hot water. In the systems proposed by SYRIUS, the storage tank is a «tank in tank» type: the domestic hot water tank is inside the storage tank for the space heating water. The solar collectors heat the main tank with the exchanger. The domestic hot water storage tank will be heated and kept at a constant temperature in the main storage tank. The system is composed with a regulator which control solar pump and the space heating pumps. Back- up energy can be provided by a back-up boiler (gas, oil, wood), a heat pump or an electric element. A customized study will be provided by our engineering office for each product.


The first person to ever use the grammatically passive voice was joking his way out of guilt. He got a huge laugh and from then on people not only retold the joke (” ‘The sword– went through him!‘ Ha ha ha!“) they also marveled at his avoidance of appropriate punishment (“Everyone in the mead hall was laughing their breath away! Or rather, I should say, ‘the floor of the mead hall had everyone rolling on it laughing!’ Everyone except the accused, who walked by!”). Over time, the passive voice became less funny and less exculpatory until it is now considered a normal part of language for people who are obviously guilty or fuzzy. The future imperfect tense also began as a joke, repeated not so much for any famed hilarity but for its perpetual usefulness. “By the next moon, I will have begun to repay my debt in full. And you can take that to the bank!”


Carbon 14 and the Age of the Earth We are discussing Carbon Dating, probably the most reliable form of dating that we currently have available. Carbon 14 however has some strong limitations, primarily that it has a very short half life of about 5700 years. This means that is should not be detectable at all after about 100,000 years, if we are being very generous and definitely not after millions of years. Yet, we find Carbon 14 in practically everything, from coal to diamonds - both dated to hundreds of thousand to millions of years old. This is not possible within the evolutionary paradigm, but finding Carbon 14 in organic things fits precisely with the Biblical Chronology. Enjoy the video and may the Lord Bless You.


Food Allergy Testing Saliva or blood testing to determine food allergies that can be symptoms of digestion disorders, fatigue, and even pain. Consuming foods that you are intolerant to can block your weight loss efforts. Sometimes referred to as “delayed allergies”, IgG food reactions require removal of the offending foods for several months to years. Individuals with neurological, gastrointestinal, and movement disorders often suffer from IgG-mediated food reactions. These people may continue to eat offending foods, unaware of their potential effects. There are 93 foods tested in the IgG Food Allergy Test w/ Candida that will identify the offending food so they can be eliminated from the diet. This elimination of IgG positive foods can improve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, autism, AD(H)D, cystic fibrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and epilepsy according to numerous clinical studies.


Resistors are commonly found elements in electrical networks and circuits. These components are used to control electric current flow within electrical parts and circuit boards. One of the most common types of resistors is known as the wirewound resistor. Wirewound resistors are produced by winding metal wire around a plastic, fiberglass or ceramic core. Typically, this metal wire is comprised of nichromea nickel-chromium wire. Optimized circuit designs often include wirewound resistors where precision is important. Wirewound resistors have tight resistance tolerances and are typically very stable. Since these resistor types can maintain their precision over time, they are extremely popular in electrical components. They are comprised of very stable materials and are very reliable and rugged. Modern circuits typically use wirewound resistors for this reason.
