909447 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDG-ANUBiH | CDG-ANUBiH | The Center for Demographic Genetics of the Academy of Sciences and Arts of Bosnia and Herzegovina (abbreviated CDG-ANUBiH), was established on July 15, 2020, by Decision No. 1-01-1-246-6/20, at the formal proposal of the Department of Natural and Mathematical Sciences, which was represented by a wider circle of interested institutions and individuals in the field of natural and social sciences.
Basics and activities
After the successful realization of the first strategic goal of ANUBiH in the development of genetic and biotechnological research in Bosnia and Herzegovina, that is the macroproject of Social Goal VI (working title: "Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology"), including appropriate human and infrastructural support, ANUBiH initiates institutionalization of population genetic research. Such a need is based on the results of already established research on the genetics of the population of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as the fact that B&H geneticists in this field are already widely established as leaders in the Region, both in scope and in the quality and diversity of approaches to local demographic genetics.
Thanks to mostly individual, and less often organized institutional research, the genetic structure of B&H local populations are better known than the population of other countries in the Region. This equally applies to knowledge of the genetic structure of representative metapopulation samples. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, possible factors of genetic differentiation of local parts of the population have been investigated, and B&H researchers also collaborated on demographic and genetic research in today's neighboring countries: MontenegroCroatia, Slovenia and Serbia, including Kosovo and Vojvodina.
Demographic and genetic research of the appropriate population structure in Bosnia and Herzegovina have a relatively long history, based on the work of Austrian military doctors (Augustin Weisbach, Heinrich Himmel and their associates), who led meticulous Austro-Hungarian recruitment commissions throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina , and after that published their research in the famous journal Mitteilungen der Anthropologischen Gesellschaft in Wien (MAGW) . This is followed by a long period, in which sporadic data on the frequency of blood groups of several antigenic systems appear. Research momentum in this area began in the late 1960s, from information on the phenogenotype structure of our population by individual traits and their complexes, through the study of genetic distance and similarity of local populations, given selected morphological, biochemical and physiological hereditary traits, to complex molecular genetic research in recent epoch.
The concept of the newly established center is based on an interdisciplinary and polyvalent approach, which includes population genetics, biological anthropology, linguistics, medicine, archaeology, ethnology, history, physical culture, sports and related scientific fields. The primary intention of the newly formed Center is to integrate human and infrastructural potentials in researching the genetic characteristics of the population of Bosnia and Herzegovina, from the ancient, medieval and recent eras, to predict their changes in space and time.
Main directions and goals of action
Integration of appropriate human and infrastructural potentials in the related field;
Establishment of a database on genetic characteristics of the population of B&H;
DNA analysis and characterization of ancient, medieval and recent samples;
Analysis of past and prediction of possible changes in the genetic composition of the population.

909455 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illa%20de%20Arousa | Illa de Arousa | Arousa Island, officially in Galician A Illa de Arousa or Illa de Arousa () is the only island municipality in Galicia, Spain in the province of Pontevedra. It is located in the heart of the Ria de Arousa. According to 2011 INE the island's population was 5,020 inhabitants. The population is divided into several neighborhoods, and places of interest are the lighthouse's environment, Areoso islet (close to the Illa de Arousa) and Carreirón Natural Park, which is listed as a special protection zone for heron birds populations among other birds that inhabit the island .
O Santo (The Holy) viewpoint is the highest point on the island.
"San Xulián da Illa de Arousa" is the only parish in this island. Some of its beaches are the following ones: A Area da Secada, A Lavanqueira, O Vao, Camaxe, Carreirón, Espiñeiro and O Cabodeiro.
A Illa de Arousa has five ports. Xufre is the most important and the other important docks include O Campo, Chazo and Cabodeiro.
Educational centres on the island
There are two kindergartens (Galescola - A Galiña Azul and Escola infantil 'Sorrisos e lágrimas''' ), one public and one semi-arranged; a primary education center (CEIP "Torre-Illa"), a secondary education institute (IES da Illa de Arousa ), a municipal music education center and the Galician Institute of Aquaculture Training (Instituto Galego de Formación en Acuicultura, IGAFA).
There is also an Interpretation Center for Canned Seafood and Fishing, which acts as a museum and receives educational visits from other schools in Galicia.
Etymology
According to E. Bascuas, "Arousa", registered as insulam Arauza in 899, would belong to the old European hydronymy, and is derived from the Indoeuropean root *er- 'flow, move'.
According to M. Santalha, its origin is Arautia or Arautsia. In any case, both have their origin in the Celtic Arausiu.
There are speculations that relate the place name to a Roman altar (Ara; Ara Augusta)
Scholars say that in "Ara" means "source of the head", and in Gaelic "Before the ear" (in toponymy refers to a coastal outcrop). Arautia also adds the ending "aunt" of participle, meaning "the one before the ear" (and the "ear" turns out to be the Barbanza Peninsula). In this way, Arautia would mean: "before the ear - Barbanza" or "east of Barbanza"''.

909456 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/The%20Pearl%20Qatar | The Pearl Qatar | Pearl-Qatar (Arabic: اللؤلؤة قطر, romanized: alluluat qatar) in Doha, Qatar, is an artificial island spanning nearly four square kilometers. It is the first land in Qatar to be available for freehold ownership by foreign nationals. As of 2018, there are 27,000 residents. Once fully completed, The Pearl will create over 32 kilometers of new coastline, for use as a residential estate with an expected 18,831 dwellings and 45,000 residents by 2018. Developed by United Development Company and planned by architecture and design firm Callison, the island is located 350 meters offshore of Doha's West Bay Lagoon area. In 2004, when the project was first revealed, the initial cost of constructing the island stood at $2.5 billion. It is now believed the project will cost $15 billion upon completion.

909458 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/IGAFA | IGAFA | The Galician Institute of Aquaculture Training ( IGaFA or IGAFA ) is an educational body dependent on the Dirección Xeral de Innovación e Desenvolvemento (Directorate General of Innovation and Development) of the Consellería de Pesca e Asuntos Marítimos (Ministry of Fisheries and Maritime Affairs) of the Galician autonomous government (Xunta de Galicia). It is co-financed by the European Social Fund. Courses are taught for obtaining the certificates of shell fisherman, aquaculturist and specialist in marine cultures.
The center is located in the municipality of Arousa Island (Illa de Arousa).
History
The first attempts to found a "Pisciculture" center in the Ría de Arousa were due to Antón Vila Nadal, at the end of the 19th century, when he proposed the creation of a single Galician Biological Station, located in Carril. In the pamphlet Objeto y descripción del Acuario Ambulante de la Estación Zoológica de Barcelona y Escuela de Piscicultura de Arosa (1892) he explained the details and set out his ideas about the Station. In 1900 the first stone of the Station was laid in Carril. Under the auspices of the reform of the Museum of Natural Sciences, the establishment was intended to be created, dependent on the University of Santiago de Compostela and in charge of the professor of Natural History. However, it was not until 1952 that the Marine Research Institute was created in Vigo.
Much later, public bodies such as the Center for the Control of the Marine Environment (CCMM), CIMA and INTECMAR were created.
In the second half of the 80's, during the presidency of the Xunta de González Laxe, the IGAFA was tendered, the main architect was Pascuala Campos de Michelena, and others collaborated such as Rodríguez Abilleira and Teresa Táboas. Formally, they sought continuity with the large number of canneries on the island , and the Museo do Mar de Galicia, designed in Vigo by César Portela, bears similarities to the IGAFA building. It was inaugurated in 1992, under the presidency of Fraga Iribarne.
Since 2005, IGaFA has been the "National Center for Occupational Vocational Training in the Aquaculture Training Area" and has been ISO 9001: 2000 certified by the Quality Management System.
Training offers
Occupational training courses in aquaculture were initially held at the center until 1994.
It is possible to study diving and aquaculture courses at the center.
It is part of the Erasmus + organization.
The offer of non-regulated courses includes those of shellfishing and professional diving, since 1999, being the only center in Galicia that provides this training.
Specific Vocational Training Cycles
The offers of regulated training courses since 1994 is the Specific Vocational Training Cycles :
Aquaculture Cultivation Operations Technician (Intermediate)
Higher Technician in Aquaculture Production (Higher Degree)
In the year 2000, the teaching of the intermediate cycle of adult aquaculture (or Modular) and the Social Guarantee Program "Aquaculture Worker" began.
In 2001, the middle cycle "Medium Depth Diving Technician" was implemented.
In the 2003-2004 academic year, the "Master in Innovation, Production Technology and Aquaculture Management" (MITGA) was taught.
Technician in underwater and hyperbaric operations.
Facilities
The center has common facilities for teaching aquaculture and diving, with 11 classrooms for theoretical classes, a library, an auditorium, science and biology laboratories, an audiovisual classroom and a computer room.
For the specific education of aquaculture it has cultivation facilities of 1,175 m 2 with the necessary sections for the conditioning of the breeders, incubation, larval culture, larval feeding ( phytoplankton and zooplankton ) and pre-fattening of cultivated species, in the areas of auxiliary crops, cultivation of fish, shellfish farming and shellfish farming.
In addition, it has four laboratories equipped with optical material for the practices of aquaculture cycles, as well as a workshop on marine culture facilities.
It also has a raft for the cultivation of molluscs, two cages for fattening fish and crustaceans and an intertidal park provided by the Fishermen's Guild of A Illa de Arousa.
In the outer enclosure are located two mini-farms of molluscs, a greenhouse for continental fish farming and facilities of the "Plan of Repopulation of Marine Species of the Galician Coast ".
For professional diving lessons, there are equipped rooms, an indoor swimming pool, an outdoor pool, a hyperbaric chamber, a gas charging station, an aquarium room, a welding workshop, a mechanics workshop and several boats.

Wolf | Zachary Raymond Wolf (born July 26, 1958) is an American engineer, theoretical particle physicist, researcher, and lead scientist at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, who was on the SLAC team that designed LINAC Coherent Light Source (LCLS), the world's first t x-ray Free-electron Laser (FEL).
Early life and education
Wolf was born in Decatur, Illinois the eldest son of industrialist Raymond T. Wolf, and Joan H. Wolf who was a prominent real estate mass developer in Central Illinois. Greene studied at the University of Illinois, earning a B.S. in electrical engineering in 1979, a M.S. in electrical engineering in 1981, and his Ph.D. in physics from University of California, Berkeley in 1988 supervised by Werner Hofmann.
Research
After completing his Ph.D. in physics from the University of California, Berkeley in 1988, he worked as a research scientist at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) in Menlo Park, California.
Linac Coherent Light Source
In 2009, Wolf was on the leading SLAC research team, that designed the first Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). The LCLS is the first laser in the world to produce hard x-rays, which can be used to see down to the level of atoms and molecules. During the research and trials of designing the LCLS, the SLAC design team added nearly half a mile onto the original two-mile long accelerator facility in Menlo Park, California. The LCLS uses the final one-third of the accelerator to produce powerful pulses of x-ray laser light. As the world's most powerful X-ray laser, the Linac Coherent Light Source creates unique light that can resolve detail the size of atoms and see processes that occur in less than one tenth of a trillionth of a second. At these unprecedented speeds and scales, the LCLS has embarked on groundbreaking research in physics, structural biology, energy science, chemistry and a host of other fields.
Personal life
Wolf currently resides in Half Moon Bay, California. He is divorced and has three adult-children that live in California.

Scientists think it might also live in Colombia.
The adult male frog is about 7.7 cm long and the adult female frog is about 8.8 cm long. The skin on the frog's back is dark brown with green or lighter brown spots. The legs and toes have cream and black marks on them. Each frog has a triangle-shaped spot between its eyes with one point pointing toward the frog's nose. The irises of the eyes have a shape called a Maltese cross in them.
This animal hides during the day and looks for food at night. It spends most of its time in the tree branches. The female frog lays eggs in water-filled holes in trees. The tadpoles eat dead plants and other eggs from the same species.
