Please Disable Ad-Block To View This Website. 40,000 years ago the steppes of Eurasia were home to our closest human relative, the Neanderthals. Recent genetic and archaeological discoveries have proven that they were not the dim-witted cave dwellers we long thought they were. In fact, they were cultured, technologically savvy and more like us than we ever imagined! So why did they disappear? We accompany scientists on an exciting search for an answer to this question and come to a startling conclusion... A climate change due to a cataclysmic event.

Ticks are one of nature’s most feared creatures, not only because they are hidden and difficult to find, but also because their bites can inflict great harm. In some cases, tick bites may even prove fatal. Ticks are small bugs that suck blood (human and animal). Because they are so small – around the size of a pinhead – they are barely visible to the human eye. If you get bitten by a tick, contact your doctor for evaluation. In the meanwhile, follow some basic guidelines on tick bite treatment. Find out the top 10 symptoms and treatments of tick bites. Experiencing pain around the area of the tick bite is by far the most common symptom associated with tick bites. Even though the initial bite may not hurt or be felt, the moments that follow typically cause some degree of discomfort. Most people describe the sensation as irritation. In the worst-case scenario, an allergic reaction may occur, causing pain not only in the area surrounding the bite, but also the muscles and joints of the body. If you experience such pain, contact your doctor as soon as possible. Treat the pain by rubbing the area with rubbing alcohol. Wear gloves so you don’t spread pathogens from the tick to your hands.

Ireland was experiencing a serious economic downturn at the beginning of the 1820s. This did not, however, prevent the Anglo-Irish landowners from enforcing unsustainable payments from their tenants, and in 1821 an agrarian rebellion broke out in the south-westerly counties of Ireland. Parliamentary Select Committees on Agriculature largely dismissed the Irish suffering as unimportant. We have have no profile for this entry.

Nisha (21) has been battling depression for nearly ten years. Most nights, the voices in her head take the front seat and control her life. That’s when suicide doesn’t seem like “giving up”, but “giving in”. But with time, patience and some professional help, she’s finding her way back on her feet again. 1 in 5 youth will face at least one mental health problem before they reach adulthood*. Many of us will know someone who is suffering from a mental illness. There is a high level of stigma surrounding mental illness, and many of these misconceptions stem from ignorance, fear and misunderstanding. There’s a lot we can do to end the stigma. You can start by supporting these organisations who work tirelessly to help those fighting mental illnesses – from running suicide prevention hotlines to providing counselling services and therapy.

In past years, when teaching my 6th graders how to respond to questions requiring textual evidence, I began by showing my students the correct way to use and write evidence found in the text. This year, I decided to begin my writing lessons with a lesson on what not to include when responding to various writing prompts. My students copied the information into their notebooks and use it as a checklist of what not to do. I have seen dramatic improvements in their writing. This powerpoint can be edited to fit your needs. You can print it or have students copy the information into their notebooks. Thank you for visiting my store!

Franz Boas was a German-American anthropologist and a pioneer of modern anthropology who has been called the "Father of American Anthropology" and "the Father of Modern Anthropology". Like many such pioneers, he trained in other disciplines; he received his doctorate in physics, and did post-doctoral work in geography. He applied the scientific method to the study of human cultures and societies; previously this discipline was based on the formulation of grand theories around anecdotal knowledge. Boas once summed up his approach to anthropology and folklore by saying: "In the course of time I became convinced that a materialistic point of view, for a physicist a very real one, was untenable. This gave me a new point of view and I recognized the importance of studying the interaction between the organic and inorganic, above all the relation between the life of a people and their physical environment."

A new study indicates that making one small change in how we read aloud to preschoolers can make a big difference in literacy achievement. The small change? Pointing out printed words as we read aloud. Researchers have been studying the impact of this simple intervention on a group of preschoolers from at-risk communities. So far, the kids have been followed for two years and according to the most recent findings (published in the journal Child Development), these small changes make a measurable difference. "Children who focused their attention on print … had better literacy outcomes than those who did not," says Shane Piasta, one of the researchers. "It was very clear." Piasta, S. B., Justice, L. M., McGinty, A. S. and Kaderavek, J. N. (2012). Increasing young children’s contact with print during shared reading: Longitudinal effects on literacy achievement. Child Development, 83(3), 810–820.

Are you curious about the origins of the ubiquitous Windows Operating System? Sure you know about Windows 3.1, but what about earlier iterations of the OS? Nathan’s Toasty Technology has posted a December 1983 issue of Byte magazine with a review of Windows 1.0. The review has been transcribed into text and has some great accompanying scans. Be ready to be shocked, but this is how it all began: The open approach and the presentation of Microsoft Windows as an extension of MS-DOS 2.0 will help attract the horde of programmers necessary to assure acceptable execution speeds on the IBM PC. Just as enough programmers working long enough on different approaches have made the Apple II perform feats that once seemed incredible, enough programmers working long enough on enough different approaches will make applications run fast under Microsoft Windows on ordinary hardware. Even if this judgment proves mistaken, Microsoft’s policy of openness and low pricing will have made possible a major experiment in mass-market software. For many software authors as well as users, this will be the first chance to test an approach to the user interface that has hovered just beyond reach for several years.

Image of the Day: Perilous Plight of Adélies Penguins As one of most southerly-distributed seabirds, the Adélie is a species of penguin common along the entire Antarctic coast and except during spring when they come on land to breed, are highly reliant on the sea and its ice to hunt and live. It is this dependence that is causing severe problems for the penguins along the Antarctic Peninsula, the fastest warming region on Earth thanks to human-caused climate change. The planet as a whole has warmed about 1.3°F since 1900, but on the peninsula, it has shot up by a whopping 5°F in just 50 years, forcing massive ice shelves to disintegrate and sea ice along with penguin population size to diminish. The Adelie penguin population has declined by 80 percent since the 1970s with one colony in particular dropping from 320 to 54 breeding pairs during the 14 years since observation began in 1990. And melting sea ice isn’t the only climate-induced problem likely to affect the penguins. They face breeding issues on land as temperatures rise and meltwater from snowfall and glaciers increases, increasing the chances their eggs will get washed away.

First Ten Presidents of the United States of America - Home Page This is small site which provides brief but well written biographies of the first ten presidents. It is hosted at geocities which means it is liable to vanish at any time but I think it is worth noting. From the site: To remember the achievements of America's early Presidents, one need only call to mind the beliefs most widely cherished by so many of the American people: the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights ......... to name but a few. America's first Presidents laid the bedrock on which America was built and on which America still stands today. It is a foundation which has remained fundamentally unchanged for over two hundred years, affording stability and confidence to the American people from generation to generation. The following pages deal with the lives of America's first ten Presidents and are dedicated in their honor. A short biography, provided by the White House, of each of these Presidents is included together with specific links to additional information available on the internet. I am certain, that having read the brief account of each of their lives, you will agree that America is eternally indebted to these remarkable men.

ENDELEHY (Endelechius)( Roman rhetorician and poet) Comments for ENDELEHY (Endelechius) Biography ENDELEHY (Endelechius) Endelehy, North Sanctus; Endelechius, Severus Sanctus, IV in. n. e., a Roman rhetorician and poet. Probably came from South Gaul. Another 400 g. was a famous teacher of rhetoric in Rome. Stable glory won, but as a Christian poet. The surviving poem E. Livestock (De mortibus boum), formally oriented to the Odes of Horace, tells of two shepherds, who complained that their cattle die of disease. Titir (name, known for bucolic Virgil), which has a Z. Christian preacher, requires the adoption of Christianity as an effective remedy against plague. Both the shepherd immediately turn to Christianity.

One of the mysteries of the English language finally explained. postpositive (of chicken or veal) sautéed in oil, served with a tomato sauce, and traditionally garnished with eggs and crayfish.‘chicken Marengo’ - ‘I'm told that poulet à la Marengo, one entrée on a four-course evening menu, was prepared for Bonaparte on a battlefield in Italy.’ - ‘Food historians have since suggested that chicken or veal Marengo was probably created in a fashionable Parisian restaurant as much as 15 years after the battle, though admittedly in honour of it.’ - ‘All the main courses were meaty: blood sausage with roasted apples and potatoes, andouillettes de Troyes, and veal Marengo.’ - ‘Such is the legend of the origin of chicken Marengo.’ Named after Marengo, a village in northern Italy and the site of a battle (1800) in which Napoleon defeated the Austrians, after which the dish is said to have been prepared for him. In this article we explore how to impress employers with a spot-on CV.

"The ‘Employability Skills Framework’ developed by peak industry bodies, The Business Council of Australia and the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, has identified that teamwork is a skill that is highly sought after by Australian employers. The ability to work in teams has also been identified as a significant graduate outcome of higher education. However, there are issues associated with engaging students in teamwork at university, for example: student perceptions of working in teams; free-riding and; valid assessment of both process and product aspects. This paper presents a small scale literature review identifying effective practice in the introduction of teamwork. It shares insights into some problems of teaching teamwork skills, as well as some practical solutions, from both the literature and the authors’ personal experiences. A model is developed identifying how teamwork skills might be better facilitated to positively engage students in teamwork so that they are more than just surviving an assignment, but learning skills they can sustain and transfer to the workplace and beyond." & Scott, G. Surviving teamwork: Engaging in the process to develop and sustain a key employability skill. Retrieved from http://ro.ecu.edu.au/eculture/vol2/iss1/6

Lysine is an essential amino acid (cannot be manufactured in the body) required for the manufacture of proteins. Therefore, it is vital that adequate amounts are included in the diet. This amino acid supports circulation, aids in the production of antibodies, hormones, enzymes and helps ensure adequate absorption of calcium, the formation of collagen for bone, cartilage and connective tissue. It also helps the body's acid/alkaline balance (which plays a role in cold sores), supports the pineal and mammary glands and plays a role in gallbladder function. Lysine is necessary for all amino acid assimilation and assists in the storage of fats. Taking L-Lysine together with vitamin C with bioflavonoids, may effectively support herpes outbreaks.

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data A concert loudspeaker suspended high off the ground emits 28.0W of sound power. A small microphone with a 0.900cm^2 area is 51.0m from the speaker. A) What is I at the microphone? B) How much sound energy impinges on the microphone in J? 2. Relevant equations I = P/A I = 4pir^2 3. The attempt at a solution I have solved the answer to part A): I = 28W/4pi(51)^2 = 8.57*10^-4 W/m^2 The answer to part B is what's eluding me: I know that at the microphone I = 8.57*10^-4 W/m^2 So: 8.57*10^-4 = P/.009m^2 P = 7.713*10^-6 W which is equal to J/s Therefore my answer would be 7.713*10^-6 J of sound energy are impinged each second. Mastering Physics is disagreeing with me. Any advice?

Importance of the Project: —Extraction of purest form of metals. —Conservation of natural resources: —Up gradation of rural industrial activities: —Carbon fixing and eco regeneration: Extraction of purest form of metals: Presence of very low level of (< 0.02%) carbon and total absence of Sulfur and Silicon and formation of Phosphate crystals in the outer layer are the reasons behind non corrosive nature of iron used by the ancient Indians. Similarly making use of ores like Tankana for purification of metals is to be considered. Conservation of natural resources: In this procedure, ores are ground with certain plant juices before extraction of metals. Hence such plants can be conserved and grown. Up gradation of rural industrial activities: The materials and methods used in traditional techniques with quality consciousness are very simple and easily implemented without requiring any extravaganza, encouraging rural jobs as well. Carbon fixing and eco regeneration: Traditional metallurgy makes use of diversity of plants. This results in carbon fixing and eco regeneration.

improving Health Through, knowledge and understanding! Community Health Education and Training Adolescence is that time in life when youth are experimenting and exploring. Many need life skills and answers to many of life questions. One day these adolescents will be employees and employers and will need to know how to be healthy and productive. Our goal is to provide them with age appropriate nutrition and health information so that they may develop lifelong positive habits. Almost 1 in 5 youth between the ages of 6 and 19 is obese.

In a remote corner of northern Canada, Joe Goudie is at work on his very last boat for sale. The Inuit community in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador once used wood and canvas canoes to navigate the rivers of Labrador. Goudie, 72, is Inuit, but grew up as that tradition was drawing to a close. Today, he’s the last person building wooden canoes in this corner of Canada. “The one thing you need to remember — not just [about] building canoes, but working with wood — the wood is going to want to assume its natural shape,” Goudie says at his workshop. A canoe hangs suspended from the ceiling. “If you force it, it’s not going to work right. So you can’t force it.”

It was not until 1933 that the breed was introduced to France, quickly becoming established in the northern regions of the country. The United Kingdom saw the first examples of the breed in 1970, when the Animal Breeding Research Organisation (ABRO) brought in four rams to assist breeding experiments. A year later, four more followed with the aim of comparing the Texel with other terminal sires. The extensive programme concluded that the Texel excelled in two important areas - carcass quality and lean meat yield. With this explicit vindication of the Texel's qualities, in 1973 a group of Lanarkshire breeders teamed up with ABRO to import 27 ewes and 13 rams from France. This was to be the first of many imports throughout the 1970s, establishing the Texel as a popular and sought-after breed within the British Isles.

“While so much research about the Universe and data collected support the Big Bang Theory, not much has been observed about what happened before the Big Bang, because as humans, we can only focus on what can be seen, measured, and quantified within our Universe. This proposal outlined in this book about the Grand Slam Theory of the Omniverse does not contradict the process of the Big Bang. Rather, it expands upon the idea. “The purpose of this proposal is to introduce the theory that the Big Bang’s source particle was actually stable while it was present in one location. The Big Bang particle traveled outside that location, far enough to escape the enormous amount of energy holding it stable. Once clear of stabilizing energy, it is no longer stable and the Big Bang happens.”

A new study looks at what types of people are more likely to have near-death experiences. Researchers surveyed 55 people who’d had a near-death experience (NDE) and 55 who had not. The experience was defined as a life-threatening episode such as a car accident or heart attack when the person experienced a variety of feelings, including: * a sense of unusual peace * being outside their bodies * seeing intense light For 60 percent of those who had been through an NDE, the rapid-eye movement (REM) state of sleep intrudes into their regular consciousness while awake, the study found. Both before and after their traumatic event, these people had experiences that include waking up and not being able to move, sudden muscle weakness in their legs, and hearing sounds that no one else hears upon waking or falling asleep. Only 24 percent of people who had not had an NDE report this REM intrusion. Researcher Kevin Nelson, a neurologist at the University of Kentucky in Lexington points out that while dreaming also occurs in REM sleep, near-death experiences are not the same as dreams. They’re usually more vivid and lack the bizarre elements of dreams.

Interjections are words that express strong emotions. They are not grammatically connected to the rest of the sentence. Interjections that express anger, excitement, surprised or urgency is followed by an exclamation mark. Other kinds of emotions and expressions are followed by a comma. Examples (using the exclamation mark): Sentences below indicate anger, urgency, surprise and excitement. Take note of the exclamation mark. - Wait! You forgot something. - Help! There’s a fire next door. - Hey! What are you doing in my house? - Yes! I’ve finally won the game. - No! I’ve already told you that you can’t go. As mentioned earlier, milder interjections are followed by a comma, not an exclamation mark. Look at the following sentences: Examples (using the comma): - Yes, I suppose you could go with her. - No, I’m afraid it’s too late to do anything about it. - Wait, I’ll get it for you now.

If you love peeking through history then you’ll enjoy watching this footage in color from Berlin before World War I. Labeled as 1900, it might actually be a little later than that based on the soldiers uniforms and the lack of color film available in 1900. But, by 1914, for instance, several inventors had developed color motion picture film systems. The problem with color film how to display the footage and make the color consistent. It wasn’t until the 1930s that Technicolor became the new standard of color film and set the tone for how films were made. In this early film footage of Berlin we see children playing, men drinking, soldiers marching, and the buses whizzing by. It’s wonderful to see the old advertising signs and architecture of the city while taking in the brisk bustle of the crowds. It feels a little like we stepped off a train and into another era- just for a few minutes. Have a look at Berlin before the Great War in color below!

In what has to be one of the most brilliant self-defense mechanisms ever developed, several species of tropical moths are able to rasp their genitals against their bodies to produce ultrasonic signals that confuse an attacking bats acoustical targeting system. Several species of Tiger Moth and Hawk Moth have been found to use this technique, which is thought to serve as a warning for bats to keep their distance as the insects are equipped with dangerous barbed legs they're not afraid to use. But it's also a clever way to jam a bat's radar, or at least momentarily throw them off target giving the moths a few precious seconds to make their escape. Not to mention the effect it has on the Tiger Moth bar scene. [Nature via Popular Science]

A recent study conducted by scientists at the University of Western Australia suggests that women who take fish oil during pregnancy may be less likely to have a miscarriage or suffer serious complications like pre-eclampsia and gestational diabetes. Fish oil, not only enhances the development of the brain of a developing fetus, it is known to reduce inflammation in the body. Researchers found that the fish oil also improved the functioning of the placenta. Although the study was performed on pregnant rats, the researchers are hoping to confirm the findings in humans. See the full story at: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/10208321/Fish-oil-during-pregnancy-reduces-risk-of-miscarriage.html.

There are few subjects more difficult and complex than mathematics, and many children would rather avoid them. It begins simply enough with learning how to count up to ten, but the easiness of this subject seems to run away as soon as those numbers are part of everyday life. Part of the issue is that the numbers have little meaning when they are not use for any other purpose, but they can have important consequences when they are manipulated against other numbers. The complexity of mathematics begins as soon as children start learning how to add and subtract numbers, and those who do not understand the basics will struggle throughout advanced courses. Some of them might never progress past the easiest levels, and it will tend to restrict them in higher categories of learning.

Saw this in something called The Voice: AN INTERACTIVE website for children highlighting the diversity of Roman Britain will be launched tomorrow in a bid to challenge lessons on the current history curriculum. The Romans Revealed project – a collaboration between race equality think tank the Runnymede Trust and archaeologists from the University of Reading – will be officially launched at the Museum of London on April 25. It will act as a learning resource for teachers and parents to show children about a lesser-known side of the historical period. The interactive website allows children to ‘dig up’ graves and read stories by children’s author Caroline Lawrence told from the perspective of four people living in Roman Britain. It follows a research project from the university, A Long Way Home: Diaspora Communities in Roman Britain, which examined over 150 skeletons to find out about patterns of migration.

Is the deliberate limiting of output by individual employees and work groups. Restriction of output has been widely observed and is a feature of work behaviour in many different occupations. Understanding and eliminating the problem has also been a major concern of the social and management sciences. Taylor's system of scientific management was developed to overcome what he called systematic soldiering by employees, and in the 1930s, the human relations school explained restriction of output in terms of the psychological pressure on individuals to conform to workgroup norms. More recently, restriction of output has been viewed as economically rational behaviour by employees intended to reduce effort levels and counter management attempts to intensify work. Despite the vogue for ‘high performance’ and ‘high commitment’ work systems, restriction of output continues to be a feature of many work situations. Subjects: Human Resource Management.

So in the world of protons, neutrons and electrons, these pieces of matter combine to create what we see around us. Solids, liquids and gases. What I'm trying to figure out is the spacial area to mass ratio before this general structure of protons, neutrons, and electrons collapses into smaller particles meaning a area of matter/energy that contains no protons neutrons and electrons. Can that happen? Would it be due to gravitational forces? And generally I'm wondering about a small spherical area and what the metrc radius of the spherical area would be with the mass in kilograms compressed inside it. Would it turn into a singularity? Is there a better way of asking this question? I welcome any thoughts and answers on this subject. One more note. Supose that the inward force compressing the matter was strong enough to prevent a nuclear explosion. It's not a completely necessary addendum though, so exclude it if needs be. Thank you.

Metatrichoniscoides is a difficult genus and only male specimens of M. celticus can be distinguished from M. leydigii or preserved specimens of Trichoniscoides. Identification is made by microscopic examination of male 2nd endopod. Distribution and Habitat Confirmed males are known only from south Wales, and it is appears to be endemic to the British Isles. It is primarily associated with sparsely vegetated erosion banks occurring just above the supralittoral zone, but has also been recorded 7km inland at an altitude of 170 m. Characteristically, small numbers of specimens are found with extreme difficulty under large stones firmly embedded into damp humus-rich soil. It is typically associated with other trichoniscids, usually Haplophthalmus mengii, Trichoniscoides saeroeensis and Trichoniscus pygmaeus.

Science teacher Russ Columbus continues his great work at the Knabusch Mathematics and Science Center, part of Monroe (Mich.) Public Schools. In November, students planted seeds collected over the past few years to create a prairie on our campus that will be used by future students. They did the planting on school days from 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM during the second week of November, 2009. Toledo TV WTOL came and did a live story one of the mornings. The video is on their website. Go to WTOL.com and search for "Monroe students learn about planting". This project has received awards from Wild Ones and the Wildflower Association of Michigan.

All About The Guides As GCSE examinations get underway, HeadStart has helped to develop downloadable guides which support the mental wellbeing of young people during the stressful examination period. Working alongside the Charlie Waller Memorial Trust, which provides free mental health training to schools across the UK, we have prepared three separate guides; one for young people, one for parents, and one for teachers. The guides offer tips and advice to young people about managing their emotional well-being at exam time, and guidance for the adults who live and work with them on how best to support them. Young people are encouraged to get the balance right between well-planned revision, rest, and other activities. Tips for parents advise them to become actively involved in the examination process, but to be both encouraging and supportive without adding unnecessary pressure. The guides can be downloaded for free using the links at the top of this page or from the Charlie Waller Memorial Trust website. We hope that you find them to be supportive resources at a stressful time of year for many young people.

Mistakes to be prevented Discussions end with no agreement reached because of the attitude, "That is all there is to be said on the subject." Prejudice arises from this attitude: "That is all that can be said about a nationality, creed, class, or individual." Learning is blocked by an attitude of, "I know all about it." Rumor and gossip result because people accept a statement as "all the False impressions result when people accept one cause as the explanation of a complex matter. (Above examples taken from Minteer, Words and What They Do To You, Lesson 5)

Predicting deadly weather events can save lives, but researchers say there’s still much to be learned about forecasting blizzards, tornadoes, flooding and hurricanes. In an effort to improve what researchers know about extreme weather, NOAA awarded $5.7 million last week to projects aimed at enhancing forecasting methods. “These research investments are designed to accelerate the development and use of advanced observing systems, forecast models, and other decision-support tools that will improve our nation’s resilience to hazardous weather,” said NOAA Administrator Kathryn Sullivan. One of the projects, which includes researchers from Florida International University and the University of Miami, received $1.4 million. The money will be used to improve computer modeling forecasts, especially of the genesis and rapid intensification of hurricanes. “We know where the storm is going, but we still don’t predict intensity well,” said Florida International University research professor Hugh Willoughby in a previous interview with The Post. “We’re making progress, but we just can’t do it consistently.”

Al-Karnak in Ancient Egypt was named Ipet Sut, "the most venerated place". It is a small village in Egypt, located on the banks of the River Nile some 2.5 km north of Luxor. The Karnak Temple is twice the size of the built-up village area, and it is the leading attraction in al-Karnak. The temple area is a vast open-air museum and the largest ancient religious site in the world, and is probably the second most visited historical site in Egypt, second only to the Giza Pyramids near Cairo. It consists of four main parts, of which only one is accessible for tourists and the general public. This is also the "main" temple part and by far the largest part.

Artists have long employed symbols as a form of visual shorthand to convey their ideas. The earliest of these, such as those employed in European cave art of 30,000 years ago, remain a mystery. But the meaning of even those from a few hundred years ago can be ambiguous. This is an issue for those engaged in logo design work, which typically relies on the need to pack meaning into a small area with just a few lines and colors, often invoking symbolism to add depth to the imagery. But where do all these symbols come from? And where can you find collections of them, from which to draw inspiration that can lead to a reinterpretation for modern viewers? One source is old books, such as Devises et emblemes, anciennes et modernes (symbols and emblems, old and new) by Heinrich Offelen. Published in 1693, this is available for online perusal or download on the openlibrary site and is worth browsing when you're in need of some fresh creative directions. I've included a few sample pages below of just the emblems, although the book also includes descriptions of the meaning of each in several languages.

A phobia can be defined as an irrational and overwhelming fear of things or events. They are very different from normal reactions that a person has when they are afraid. There are different categories of phobias – specific and non-specific. The first is self explanatory; in the latter, phobias are usually triggered by social situations or even performing. This can cause major panic attacks as well. Some well known phobias that fall into this category are agoraphobia (open areas), social phobia (receiving attention) and claustrophobia (confined spaces). Phobias and their reactions are triggered by the subconscious mind.

The following is an excerpt from Foxnews.com | April 4, 2017 | Who says there’s no good news? It just so happens that if all of humanity is wiped out in a nuclear holocaust, the people of Earth will leave behind a record of their existence in two “doomsday vaults” on the frozen island of Svalbard, halfway between Norway and the North Pole. Svalbard’s first doomsday vault was built into the side of a mountain in 2008. Known as the Global Seed Vault, it stores duplicates of seed samples from across the globe. They’re essentially backups, stored at half a degree below zero Fahrenheit. If every kernel of corn in the world is wiped out by the unthinkable, there’s a backup in Svalbard waiting to be withdrawn. The Seed Vault, which currently holds more than 880,000 samples from almost every country in the world, is big enough to store 2.5 billion seeds — an average of 500 seeds from 4.5 million varieties of crops, according to The Crop Trust, an international nonprofit dedicated to preserving global food security.

Brooklyn Existentialism: Voices from the Stoop explaining how Philosophical Realism can bring about the Restoration of Character, Intelligence and Taste by Arthur DiClementi and Nino Langiulli. Immortalized by Hollywood in the 20th century, Italian Brooklyn became an icon of American culture. Brooklyn Existentialism shows it was more than an icon: the oxymoronic combination of uprootedness and ethnic solidarity in mid 20th century Brooklyn takes us not just back to Italy, not just back to Europe, but back to the sources of philosophical realism that made Europe, Italy, and America possible. Brooklyn Existentialism is ethnophilosophy with a vengeance: a take-no-prisoners attack on the bad ideas that corrupted the academy and an equally frank discussion of the moral mischief those ideas caused. Ethnophilosphy is not an oxymoron, it is the only philosophy worth doing. What were Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle if not residents of an ethnic neighborhood who became skeptical of the ruling ideas of their day and decided to speak out?

The brain autopsy of Robin Williams showed signs of diffuse Lewy body disease, a dementia that affects 1.4 million Americans and their families, according to the Lewy Body Dementia Association. Lewy body dementia (LBD) can closely resemble and overlap with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s making it widely underdiagnosed. Some patients start out with a movement disorder leading to a diagnosis of Parkinson’s, then develop dementia and other symptoms of LBD. Others present with cognitive dysfunction that may look like Alzheimer’s initially, but with time, hallucinations, motor impairments and fluctuating attention appear. A third smaller group present first with neuropsychiatric symptoms such as hallucinations, behavioral problems, or difficulty with complex mental activities, and later develop other symptoms. Learn more about this complex condition with LBD expert Dr. Neill Graff-Radford from the Mayo Clinic at our upcoming research conference on Friday, September 30 in Irvine.

A business’ break-even point is the point where revenues exactly equal expenses. It is critical to know this figure because it shows how much sales are needed to simply keep the business alive. The break-even point is calculated using three variables: *Fixed costs – these are costs independent of sales volume, such as rent or salaries.*Variable costs – these costs fluctuate with sales volume, such as raw materials for products.*Sales price of the product The formula is: Break-even point in units = fixed costs / (price – variable cost) For example, assume a company has $15,000 fixed costs for the month, sells a widget for $25, and each widget costs $5 to manufacture. The break-even point in units for the month is: $15,000 / ($25 – $5) = $15,000 / $20 = 750 units The company will be profitable for the month once the 751st unit is sold.

At this year’s Division for Planetary Sciences/European Planetary Science Congress meeting, the Exoplanet Dynamics session was packed full of talks on tightly-packed multi-planet systems and their instabilities. Learn about the formation and origin of the Solar System and go beyond our neighborhood to investigate exoplanets (planets around other stars) in this video of class 11 of Bruce Betts' Introduction to Planetary Science and Astronomy class. In the first full day of the annual meeting of the Division of Planetary Sciences of the American Astronomical Society, I listened to scientific sessions on icy worlds and on an exoplanet in a four-star system. A large team of researchers has announced in a Nature article the discovery of not one, but two, Earth-sized planets orbiting a star named Kepler-20. This article separates the observational facts from the quite-likely-to-be-true inferences from the downstream speculations. I wasn't able to watch the Kepler press briefing today so I will give you links to some of my favorite blogs for information on today's announcement, which follows a major data release last night as well as the publication of a paper in Nature.

The NY Times ran a great opinion piece about a year ago here about Common Core. Check it out. Here are a few weaknesses in Common Core’s epistemology (they may or may not have changed since 2015): - Common Core confuses the relationship between proof and fact. - Common Core wrongly teaches a claim is either a fact or an opinion. This makes it impossible for a claim to be a fact and an opinion. - Common Core wrongly teaches that every moral claim is only an opinion. This makes it impossible for a moral claim to be an opinion and a moral fact. According to Common Core “stealing is wrong” is an opinion, when “stealing is wrong” is actually an opinion and a moral fact.

Burning leaves outside Okhla Bird Sanctuary? Officials don't have a clue Source: The Times of India, Date: November , 2016 Noida, Nov 3, 2016 : Dry leaves, which are a precious resource for making compost, are more often being burnt right outside the Okhla Bird Sanctuary (OBS). In fact, a stretch of one kilometre in the area has become a permanent leaf-burning site, despite it falling within the designated eco-sensitive zone of the sanctuary. Leaf-burning is a punishable offence. And though smoke from such biomass burning is adding to the city's very high particulate pollution, both OBS and the Noida Authority claim to be unaware.

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data Charge Q is uniformly distributed along a thin, flexible rod of length L. The rod is then bent into the semicircle shown in the figure (Figure 1) . Find an expression for the electric field E⃗ at the center of the semicircle. Hint: A small piece of arc length Δs spans a small angle Δθ=Δs /R, where R is the radius. Express your answer in terms of the variables Q, L, unit vectors i^, j^, and appropriate constants. 2. Relevant equations 3. The attempt at a solution I drew a picture and established a coordinate system. Then I drew the vector of the electric fields at two point charges at point P. Then I saw that the y components of the field will cancel because of the symmetry. I then wrote what the field should be in terms of x. I'm not sure what to do now or how to get to a point where I could integrate.

Learn about the six basic elements of a surfboard from Quiksilver's Michael Baron in this Howcast video about how to pick a surfboard. The basic element of a surfboard is the anatomy of the surfboard. Basically it is the nose of the surfboard and then at the bottom of the surfboard is the tail at the end. And then you have your deck, is on the top; which is what you are paddling on. And then you have your sides are rails. And also on of your basic elements of your surfboards, you have your fins; which are what you steer the surfboards by. One of the elements of a surfboards, the most important is the rocker of the surfboard. The bottom contour of the rocker. And in this one its a single to double with v of the tail. The leash cup is what you put your leash on, it is what attaches to your leg and attaches to the board so if you fall of the board is right with you. And that’s the anatomy of a surfboard.

VUSSC/Content/Tourism/Tour Guiding/Analysing elements which affect communication What is Business Management? A. How do we define Business Management? - See what ... said. - Compare what ... said with .... - Now look at your handout/handbook. B. Why do we need to define Business Management? A definition here: - ... provides the business owner with areas of focus for his/her business. - ... shows the perspectives(areas of focus) of different writers. - ... allows you to compare the different perspectives to that of your own. It may also help you to clarify your own thoughts on which perspective you should take.

National Geographic : 1947 May Lundy, Treasure Island of Birds 693 Preening Cormorants Annex Gull Rock off Lundy's Eastern Cliffs About 145 species of land and sea birds visit Lundy (page 682). Guillemots, puffins, gulls, razorbills, shearwaters, and kittiwakes come in thousands. Cormorants are counted by the dozen. They particularly favor this bald monolith for sunning and displaying themselves. Some few frequent island waters all winter. For 50 Years South Light Has Shed Its Gleam Across the Wave Here the keeper cleans and polishes, a job he has done for 35 years. After five more he may retire to his stamp-collecting hobby. This beacon (page 682) and the Devon mainland light at Hartland Point mark an 11-mile southwest entrance to Bristol Channel.

One of the mysteries of the English language finally explained. 1A service that anonymously forwards email so as to disguise the original sender. - ‘For example, dissident scientologists sent secret information to e-mail lists, remaining anonymous by using remailers.’ - ‘You can always use anonymous web-based email, or simply a remailer, to make sure your IP doesn't show up in the message header.’ - ‘Finally, to consider some more dramatic possibilities, the government could launch a denial of service attack on any remaining anonymous remailers, which guarantee the privacy of both the sender and receiver of e-mail.’ - ‘I know they are talking about open relays, but is it vague enough to also mean remailers, anonymous mailers and disposable email services are now illegal.’ - ‘A spammer could then use these infected computers as an anonymous remailer for his wares.’ - 1.1 A forwarding service for mail that takes advantage of cheaper or more efficient postal services in other countries.

The Civil War Liberty and American Leviathan Wednesday, November 17, 1999 Henry E. Mayer National Book Award Finalist and author of All on Fire: William Lloyd Garrison and the Abolition of Slavery The Civil War was a great turning point in American history. It abolished the evil of slavery, established federal power over the states, andparadoxicallycreated precedents that restrict individual freedom today. The ideas and personalities of the Civil War are forever etched in our memory, but they are not merely of historic interest. Based on their acclaimed books, Henry Mayer and Jeffrey Rogers Hummel will discuss the abolitionists, political and business interests, war mobilization and conduct, etc.and how they continue to shape American society.

Newswise — Young boys continue to have the highest rate of autism diagnoses, but Danish doctors are diagnosing more girls, teenagers and adults with the disorder than they did in the mid-1990s. That’s the finding from a 16-year study published 20 February in the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders. Many studies look at the prevalence of autism, akin to taking a snapshot of the number of diagnoses in a given population. The new study instead examined the disorder’s incidence, or newly reported diagnoses, each year. Between 1995 and 2010, nearly 15,000 people received a new diagnosis of autism in Denmark, the study found. During that time, the incidence of autism overall increased from 9 diagnoses per 100,000 people to 38.6.

But creating wildlife parks creates jobs, doesn’t it? And it allows for tourists who bring money, right? Well, while Berenty certainly does have a large staff of guides, guards for the park, maids for the rooms, cooks and servers for the restaurant, the sisal plantation down the road employs far more people, and I’m sure it produces more cash. |Trash burning by sisal field| |Rice fields in the countryside| |Sisal plantation where spiny forest once stood| Successful in-situ conservation efforts understand the local people they work with. Some examples of efforts that have had great success include Gorilla Doctors, which brings trained veterinarians to treat mountain gorillas harmed in snares or with other illness/ailments. Critical thinking: You’re a conservation biologist tasked with educating a local community about the unique wildlife that surrounds their village. What must you take into consideration before attempting to your assignment? Critical thinking: What might the locals be able to teach YOU about the wildlife surrounding their village?

Monday, September 9, 2013 Divorce could be initiated by either the husband or the wife, on a number of grounds. A wife, for example could cite her husband’s impotence or sterility, beating her severely enough to leave a scar, homosexuality causing him to neglect her marriage bed, failure to provide for her support, discussing her sexual performance in public, spreading rumours about her, his having tricked her into marriage by using magic arts, or his having abandoned her for another woman. In this last case, however, the first wife had the right to remain in the marriage if she wished, and was then entitled to continued maintenance from her husband. The goddess Eriu or Éire (p. aer ah) gave her name to the land most know as Ireland. Foreigners not knowing how to pronounce the accent over the first 'é' and the correct pronunciation of last e ( 'ah') will pronounce the word Éire as "ire" hence Ire-land or Éireland!

If we visit a country, then, the main requirement besides having to have a passport we must also have a visa document, then what is Visa? And what is the Visa function? A visa is a person’s admission document to a country that can be obtained at an embassy where the country has a consulate general or a foreign embassy. Then, we need to fulfill all the requirements for the passport designed by each of the government whose country we wish to visit. For example, if you want to visit England as an immigrant, then, you need to take a B1 test as one of the requirements. You can take the test on http://britishlifeskills.com. A visa is a proof to allow to visit a place if it enters a territory of another country requiring entry permission. Visa documents can take the form of visa stickers that can be viewed at the embassy of the country to be visited or stamped on a passport in a particular country.

Author:Nicholas Sekunda, Simon Chew The Persian Army 560-330bc Osprey Publishing Ltd The Persian Empire grew in the vacuum left by Assyria's destruction of the Kingdom of Elam (648 BC). Prince Teispes captured Anshan, once a stonghold of the Elamites. His father, Achaemenes is the person who is apparently responsible for training and organising the early Persian army and it is his name that is the beginning of the royal line of Achaemenian Kings. It is a dynasty which includes Darius the Great – the finest ruler of the Achaemenid era. The army he commanded included the infamous 'Immortals', who formed the elite of the Persian army, their numbers always kept to exactly 10,000 men.

13 Jan '13, 7pm How Bitcoin can contribute to a resilient community. By Gary Rowe. #bitcoin Power is quick and easy to generate at small scales, not so easy at national scales. A resilient community would expect their residents to invest early on in simple power generation solutions like solar powered mobile device chargers or more complex solutions like uninterruptible power supplies or manual power generators. At a community level the idea of DC grids and localised power generation would further reduce the reliance on a national grid system. If all else fails people will always be able to generate power somehow, even if it means sitting on a bike attached to a generator and pedalling like mad for an hour.

Good day, explorers! Today we are going to talk about a curiosity. Many people while visiting Madrid, Spain only visit the Museo del Prado, which is a must, by the way. But let’s not forget that there are many hidden jewels outside the popular spots. One of these jewels is inside the Naval Museum of Madrid, a museum originally opened in 1832 that features antique items from the Spanish Navy since the 1500s(Catholic Monarch era), until now. Probably the most interesting finding that is held at the Museum is the oldest world map that includes the Americas. This map was created right after the trip to the northern coasts of South America with Ojeda and Vespucci, in 1500 by Juan de la Cosa, who was also present when the First voyages by Colombus took place 6 years earlier. The map shows everything that was discovered on the trip, making it the oldest and more accurate map of its time. Visit info for the Museum: here.

In 2013, classmates at Stanford University attached a GoPro to a weather balloon bound for space and sent it off into the stratosphere with hopes of catching high-resolution footage of the Grand Canyon. They attached a phone with a GPS so they could locate the camera. 90 minutes later, the balloon burst and the camera crashed down to earth and was presumed lost. Two years later, an AT&T agent hiking in the Arizona desert found the box and returned it to its owners. Last week, the researchers shared the video of the GoPro’s amazing adventures from the edge of space and back. According to The New York Times, the students’ “original goal was to obtain video of the Grand Canyon that they could modify with a special camera technique that one of the team members had developed, called fluid lensing.” Find out more about their original project here.

Quantum Entanglement Drives the Arrow of Time, Scientists Say | Simons Foundation: Using an obscure approach to quantum mechanics that treated units of information as its basic building blocks, Lloyd spent several years studying the evolution of particles in terms of shuffling 1s and 0s. He found that as the particles became increasingly entangled with one another, the information that originally described them (a “1” for clockwise spin and a “0” for counterclockwise, for example) would shift to describe the system of entangled particles as a whole. It was as though the particles gradually lost their individual autonomy and became pawns of the collective state. Eventually, the correlations contained all the information, and the individual particles contained none. At that point, Lloyd discovered, particles arrived at a state of equilibrium, and their states stopped changing, like coffee that has cooled to room temperature. “What’s really going on is things are becoming more correlated with each other,” Lloyd recalls realizing. “The arrow of time is an arrow of increasing correlations.”

14 Nov Leadership Workshop for Sixth Graders The Sixth Graders were engaged and thoughtful throughout the process. The group focused on improving their communication skills, team building, and problem solving techniques. Students were excited to participate in the bridge building challenge. For this challenge, two teams were divided by a big whiteboard. Each team had to create two halves of a bridge that would connect. The teams used the cups as measurement units–it was great to see their creativity! The students excelled during the blind obstacle course, where they used various techniques to guide partners toward the finish line. My favorite part of the workshop was the opening and closing discussions. The students were asked to “draw a leader.” It was inconclusive as to what a leader looks like, but, the group had a meaningful conversation about how actions makes someone a leader. They came up with some great qualities of leaders, including: bravery, compassion, advocacy, standing up for your beliefs, standing up for others, responsibility, and many more. The workshop ended with a discussion about how Sixth Graders are role models in the School, and how problem solving involves more than just one solution. The photos below show Sixth Graders guiding one another through the obstacle course.

Claireville Conservation Area is a large, relatively dense forested retreat in the southeast corner of Brampton. Flowing through this historic conservation area is the West Humber River. In the early 1800s, this river powered the McVean Grist Mill, run by Alexander McVean who may have been the first settler in the Toronto Gore Township. The mill no longer remains, as it was destroyed by fire in 1850. But you can still see the remains of an open canal flume. (from Brampton.ca)The Claireville Conservation Area, one of the largest tracts of land owned by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA), is unique. It was acquired in 1957 to construct a flood control dam and reservoir after the destruction caused by Hurricane Hazel . The park is a 848 hectare ) parcel of conservation land located on the west branch of the Humber River . (from Wikipedia)

Doctor Who RPG: Season 1 The Hydrogen Chamber Hit Capacity: 15 Story Points: 2 This is a device that looks like a big glass cylinder big enough to keep people in. The chamber was activated by valves (Victorian style) and released Hydrogen into the chamber. A nearby river turned a water wheel to generate current that electrocuted water (via carbon rods) and split them into hydrogen and oxygen. The Hydrogen was then captured within man-sized storage tanks and awaited the second stage. Once the Plactoras possessed a potential victim, they placed them inside the hydrogen chamber. The valves then released hydrogen into the chamber. The possessed Plactoras then use the hydrogen to draw upon and replicate molecules within the host.

Petra is a popular tourist destination. Image Credit: CC BY 2.0 Sylvain L. Archaeologists using drone and satellite imagery have identified a massive new ceremonial platform. Well known for its incredible rock-cut architecture, the city of Petra, which was believed to have been founded around 2,300 years ago by the Nabataeans, is today visited by thousands of tourists each year and was named back in 2007 as one of the new Seven Wonders of the World. While much is known about the spectacular buildings of the city’s urban core, the surrounding area is still throwing up new discoveries and now, following a renewed investigation involving aerial drone photography and high-resolution satellite imagery, archaeologists have uncovered a vast ceremonial platform measuring around twice the width of an Olympic-size swimming pool. – Read more at: http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/news/295443/mysterious-monument-found-in-ancient-petra#sthash.LPcW9EoA.dpuf

Fluoride coating much thinner than thoughtUPI Dec. 20, 2010 Somali Terrorist Behind Canada Attack Entered U.S. From Mexico, Obama DHS Let Him Go Progress: "Artist" Who Breastfed Dog, Fertilized Her Own Egg With Dog Cell Wins Prestigious Prize Anti-Establishment, Trump-Like Billionaire Wins Czech Election Jimmy Carter On Clinton Foundation: 'Rosie And I Put Money In The Carter Center, We Never Take Any Out' U. Of Penn Teaching Aide: I "Always" Call On Black Female Students First, White Men Last SAARBRUCKEN, Germany, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- German researchers say fluoride's protective cavity shield on teeth is a 100 times thinner than previously thought. [...] the researchers find this fluorapatite layer is only 6 nanometers thick -- much thinner than anyone had expected. The researchers pointed out 10,000 of these layers would be needed to span the width of a human hair. They have suggested a layer this thin may be quickly worn away by ordinary chewing and question whether a layer this thin can shield teeth from decay or whether fluoride has some other unrecognized effect on tooth enamel.

Speed Time Graph Check us out at http://www.tutorvista.com The slope of the line of a speed-versus-time graph will give you acceleration. Remember that acceleration may be positive or negative, and in some cases, acceleration may be positive when speed remains the same. If the speed-time curve is linear or piecewise linear, acceleration is, as stated above, merely the slope of the line segment. If, however, the graph is a smooth curve, then changing acceleration is represented. In other words, the rate of change of velocity -- delta-V over delta-T -- is not a constant. In that case, the slope of the line segment tangent to the curve at any given point is the acceleration at that point. If acceleration is non-zero, there must be a change in velocity. That is, after all, the definition of acceleration. Certainly, it is possible for acceleration to be positive while velocity is negative and vice versa, but a constant speed -- represented by a graph horizontal to the time axis -- implies zero acceleration.

What character traits do macbeth's exploits on the battlefield demonstrate? Are these qualities consistent with the plot he devises? Why or why not? Answers 1Add Yours On the battlefield, Macbeth is strong, loyal, and able to fight for his king. He is initially fearless on the battlefield and is, as described by the soldier, not dismayed by an onslaught of the enemy. He is not so fearless when he contemplates the murder of Duncan, but once he has committed the first murder, his intentions seem clear again. However, his loyalty is only to himself and his plan; in killing Duncan he has no longer found a worthy cause to be loyal to,.

G.W. Lambert, early sketch portrait 1862 - 01 Oct 1941 George Lambert (1873–1930) is regarded as one of Australia's most distinguished artists of the Edwardian period. Although best known as a society and portrait painter, his large work 'Across the black soil plains' of 1899 is one of the most popularly admired paintings in the Gallery. Travelling to Europe in 1901, Lambert established a significant reputation as a portrait painter in London before serving as an official Australian war artist on the Eastern front. Returning to Australia in 1921, he became a respected and prominent figure in art circles. © Australian Art Department, Art Gallery of New South Wales, 2006 Shown in 2 exhibitions Referenced in 1 publication Unknown, Debonair Jack, South Yarra, 1994, 110 (illus.).

Anesthesia is a way to control pain using anesthetic medicine. General anesthesia, which can be injected into a vein or inhaled, affects the entire body and makes the person unconscious. A person under general anesthesia is completely unaware of what is going on and does not feel pain during the surgery or procedure. Anesthesia interrupts the pain signals between a person's nerve endings and the brain. The health professional administering the anesthesia monitors the person's condition throughout the procedure.

The Kuril Islands dispute Walking around Sapporo, the capital of Hokkaido (the northernmost prefecture in Japan), we saw several times these signs claiming: “Let’s regain Japan’s Northern Territories with the Spirit of the Whole Nation”. All Kuril Islands were Japanese from 1875 until the San Francisco treaty was signed in 1945, since then the Kuril Islands belong to Russia. Even so, Japan claims the islands as part of its national territory, specially the four islands which are very near Hokkaido (as seen in the sign on the picture). These four islands have a Japanese name and most of its inhabitants belong to the ethnic group Ainu, who speak Japanese (the Ainu language is in danger of extinction) In this map from Wikipedia you can see how the Japanese control over the Kuril Islands changed over the years. Some years ago Russia was thinking about giving back some of the islands to Japan, but they eventually backed out.

Defined as the process of communication between parties to reach an agreement, negotiation is the fundamental and everyday approach that Jones Mitchell Lawyers takes to amicably resolve family law conflict. In family law, lawyers generally negotiate with the other party’s lawyer without the client. They negotiate by telephone, writing letters and emails, exchanging relevant information, and occasional round table meetings. Clients then meet privately with their lawyers through this process and the lawyers keep the client informed of the negotiations. Generally, most family law dispute resolution starts with negotiation. Negotiation is also a preferable approach for separating couples who are not comfortable to sit in the same room as their respective partner to negotiate a settlement. This process may also be desirable when there has been a history of domestic violence or when there are significant power imbalances between the couple.

Merging Trees: File System and Content Integration XML is the predominant format for representing structured information inside documents, but it stops at the level of files. This makes it hard to use XML-oriented tools to process information which is scattered over multiple documents within a file system. File System XML (FSX) and its content integration provides a unified view of file system structure and content. FSX's adaptors map file contents to XML, which means that any file format can be integrated with an XML view in the integrated view of the file system. Wilde, E. 2006.

|The team of researchers claim that there are multiple, interacting universes – some very different from our own| could allow science fiction dreams to become reality | THERE are multiple timelines playing out in parallel universes, according to a team of researchers. The sensational claim was made by a team of physicists, who believe that the parallel universes can all affect one another. Professor Howard Wiseman and Dr Michael Hall, from Griffith University’s Centre for Quantum Dynamics, claim that the idea of parallel universes is more than just science fiction. Fellow researcher Dr Dirk-Andre Deckert, from the University of California, helped further the researchers’ theory, which goes against almost all conventional understanding of space and time. If there really are multiple, interacting universes, then it would be possible for time travellers to visit Earth, and every imaginable scenario would be played out in a parallel universe at some point.
