OverviewThe fetus grows and develops due to the nourishment from the mother via the placenta. Along with nutrients, any toxins in the mother's system may be delivered to the fetus. These toxins often cause damage to the fragile, developing fetal organs. Depending on the organs affected, long-term effects may be severe, including mental problems such as retardation and seizures.

In a first for the nation, April 24 will be officially designated "Armenian Genocide Commemoration Day" in the Glendale Unified School District after a unanimous vote by school board members on Tuesday. Glendale Unified is the first school district in the country to establish a day in remembrance of the genocide, which began in 1915 and resulted in the killing of 1.5 million Armenians at the hands of the Ottoman Empire. Since the 2013-14 school year, students and teachers have been given the day off on April 24 — globally observed as the recognition of the Armenian genocide — because so many of them take part in genocide events, such as the annual remembrance march through Hollywood. However, school officials wanted to locally brand the day, which until now was referred to only as a non-instructional day. "Every calendar in the school district, it's going to be printed Armenian Genocide [Commemoration] Day," said school board member Greg Krikorian. "It's going to be embedded in there."

Plantar Fasciitis is the most common cause of heel pain, accounting for around four out of five cases. Plantar fascia is a tough and flexible band of tissue that runs under the sole of the foot, connecting the heel bone with the rest of the bones in the foot acting as a shock absorber. Plantar Fasciitis can happen suddenly over a period of months or gradually over a number of years. - Intense pain in the heel and/or arch - Pain in the morning or after long periods of rest Tiny tears develop inside the tissue building up a thick layer causing heel pain. - You are at an increased risk of getting plantar fasciitis if you are overweight, have a job that involves long periods of standing or wear flat sole shoes for example flip flops - Tight calf muscles or achilles tendons - Flat feet - Increased activity - Supportive footwear - Footwear that has a thick sole for arch support - Choose low impact sport

An improved coating technique that could strengthen the connection between titanium joint-replacement implants and a patients' own bone has been developed by researchers. The stronger connection -- created by manipulating signals the body's own cells use to encourage growth -- could allow the implants to last longer. Implants coated with "flower bouquet" clusters of an engineered protein that mimics the body's own cell-adhesion material fibronectin made 50 percent more contact with the surrounding bone than implants coated with protein pairs or individual strands. The cluster-coated implants were fixed in place more than twice as securely as plugs made from bare titanium -- which is how joints are currently attached. Researchers believe the biologically-inspired material improves bone growth around the implant and strengthens the attachment and integration of the implant to the bone. This work also shows for the first time that biomaterials presenting biological sequences clustered together at the nanoscale enhance cell adhesion signals. These enhanced signals result in higher levels of bone cell differentiation in human stem cells and promote better integration of biomaterial implants into bone.

A currency is a unit of exchange, facilitating the transfer of goods and services. It is a form of money, where money is defined as a medium of exchange (rather than e.g. a store of value). A currency zone is a country or region in which a specific currency is the dominant medium of exchange. To facilitate trade between currency zones, there are exchange rates i.e. prices at which currencies (and the goods and services of individual currency zones) can be exchanged against each other. Currencies can be classified as either floating currencies or fixed currencies based on their exchange rate regime. In common usage, currency sometimes refers to only paper money, as in "coins and currency", but this is misleading. Coins and paper money are both forms of currency.

How do springtails survive on water? AThe water springtail Podura aquatica occupies the surface of any still water from ponds to puddles, and has several adaptations that enable it to survive. It is covered in tiny hydrophobic bumps that keep it dry as it grazes algae or scavenges on organic matter, and a special hydrophilic tube, known as a collophore, for keeping a grip on the surface tension. The animals also float in rafts, particularly in fine weather, affording them safety in numbers and helping them to find mates. Like their cousins that reside under logs and in the leaf litter, water springtails can jump by flipping open their long, spatulate tail-spring organs, hitting them against the surface tension without breaking it. The seashore springtail Anurida maritima forms similar rafts on rockpools, and though it can also anchor itself using its collophore, lack of a springed tail means it can only waddle on the water. Water springtails live on the water surface all year round, bearing several generations.

Some arguments for school dress codes state that the practice promotes equality between male and female students and those from different economic backgrounds, improves the overall safety in schools and takes away outside distractions from the classroom, according to Fresno Pacific University. Opposing perspectives argue that guidelines on dress oppress individualism in students and do not offer a solution to larger issues involving violence and preparing students for the workforce.Continue Reading In the public school system, dress codes are used to discourage focus on outside influences; on the less serious side, the difference between those who can and can't afford expensive clothing is eliminated, as stated by occupytheory.org. On the more serious side, school uniforms can improve safety in areas where gang violence is high by prohibiting gang symbols on clothing and making it easy to spot firearms by requiring students to show a belt line at all times. On the other side of the coin, scholars argue that the practice was instituted as part of the education system's agenda to prepare students for the workplace, focusing on important skills and the appropriate way to dress. As many companies today focus more on individuality and steer away from conformity, dress codes no longer help and in some cases hinder a student's development.Learn more about Clothing

By: Abbie Smith NEW HAVEN — Students at Common Ground High School are taking the lead in laying the groundwork for a sustainable future. On Tuesday, students presented their ideas for “greening” the school, projects that tackle environmental topics such as recycling, water conservation and energy-conserving building design. “It’s central to Common Ground’s mission to teach principles of sustainability and to live these principles by example,” said Melissa Spear, executive director of Common Ground. “This fair is one way we are really trying to engage our students in how to think about sustainability.” The school’s Leading Green Sustainability Fair serves two purposes. First, it encourages students to participate in the charter school’s process of creating a 20-year master plan. The top student sustainability projects will be incorporated in the master plan. Second, the fair provides a way for the school to pick which projects to fund through a recently secured $100,000 grant from the State Farm Youth Advisory Board.

This Newborn Baby Sloth Might Be More Cute Than You Can Handle. The Topeka Zoo had a special delivery last month. A Hoffmann's two-toed sloth named Jackie gave birth to a healthy baby sloth on November 20th. It's Jackie's 13th baby and the sloth father Mocha's first. The sex of the baby is unknown at this time, but the baby and mother appear to be doing very well. Hoffmann’s two-toed sloths are indigenous to the rain forests of South and Central America. The nocturnal animals spend most of their time hanging in trees. This species name comes from having only two claws on their front hands- in some cases they can grow up to 3 inches long! In the wild they have a lifespan of about 10 to 12 years, although in captivity they can live up to 31 years. IUCN Red List classifies them as 'least concern.' The sloths main threat in the wild is habitat destruction. Watch the baby sloth enjoying a piece of lettuce: Isn't this sloth baby so cute?!

Nicholas of Cusa (1401–1464), widely considered the most important original philosopher of the Renaissance, was born in Kues on the Moselle River. A polymath who studied canon law and became a cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church, he wrote principally on speculative theology, philosophy, and church politics. As a political thinker he is best known for De concordantia catholica, which presented a blueprint for peace in an age of ecclesiastical discord. This volume makes most of Nicholas’s other writings on Church and reform available in English for the first time, including legal tracts arguing the case of Pope Eugenius IV against the conciliarists, theological examinations of the nature of the Church, and writings on reform of the papacy and curia. Among the works translated are an early draft of De concordantia catholica and the Letter to Rodrigo Sánchez de Arévalo, which discusses the Church in light of the Cusan idea of “learned ignorance.”

Researchers encode malware in DNA, compromise DNA sequencing software With everyone from academics to Microsoft looking at the prospect of storing data using DNA, it was probably inevitable that someone would start looking at the security implications. Apparently, they're worse than most people might have expected. It turns out it's possible to encode computer malware in DNA and use it to attack vulnerabilities on the computer that analyzes the sequence of that DNA. The researchers didn't find an actual vulnerability in DNA analysis software—instead, they specifically made a version of some software with an exploitable vulnerability to show that the risk is more than hypothetical. Still, an audit of some open source DNA analysis software shows that the academics who have been writing it haven't been paying much attention to security best practices.

2003 AAFP Zoonoses Guidelines This document is currently being updated and is scheduled to be released in 2017. Transmission of zoonotic agents from animals to people can potentially occur by direct contact with the animal, indirect contact with secretions or excretions from the animal, and contact with vehicles like water, food or fomites that were contaminated by the animal. For many agents, infection of the animal and human occurs from a shared vector or environmental exposure. The panel members include Thomas H. Elston, DVM, DABVP, Co-Chairman; Michael R. Lappin, DVM, PhD, DACVIM, Co-Chairman; Dick Brown, DVM, DABVP; Lisanne Evans, DVM, DABVP; Carol Glaser, DVM, MD; Lynn Gulledge, DVM, DABVP; Lorraine Jarboe, DVM, DABVP; and Leonard C.

Synopsis by Hal Erickson The positive public response to such productions as Crossfire and Gentleman's Agreement led to a mini-cycle of postwar anti-prejudice films. One of these was The Vicious Circle, based on a true incident which had previously been dramatized in G. W. Pabst's The Trial. In the late-19th century, an anti-Semitic Hungarian baron (Reinhold Schunzel) foments a pogrom against his country's Jews when a 14-year-old servant girl commits suicide. Falsely accused of subjecting the girl to a ritualistic murder, five Jewish farmers are put on trial for murder. Defying the slings and arrows of public condemnation, defense attorney Karl Nemensch (Conrad Nagel) intends to prove the farmers' innocence -- and to expose anti-Semitism for the poisonous scourge that it truly is. The Vicious Circle was based on The Burning Bush, a play by Herald and Geza Herczeg. accusation, discrimination, false-accusation, innocence, killing, landowner, lawyer, murder, prejudice, suicide, suicide-attempt, trial [courtroom]

Managing High Cholesterol: Statins, PCSK9 Inhibitors, and More Cholesterol is an insoluble, fat-like, waxy substance that is naturally produced by the liver. It’s an essential component of many types of cells and hormones. However, some people develop atherosclerosis, or a buildup of fatty plaque in the arteries. This is also referred to as uncontrolled high cholesterol, and is caused when there is a surplus of low-density lipoproteins (LDL), or “bad” cholesterol, in the blood. Fewer than 29.5 percent of adults with high LDL cholesterol have the condition under control, and less than half of adults who are diagnosed with high LDL cholesterol are actively pursuing treatment to lower their levels. If you believe you’re at risk, the best thing to do is talk to your doctor, get tested, and if diagnosed, pursue the recommended treatment. In the meantime, making conscious, healthy food choices and getting plenty of exercise can help reduce your likelihood of developing uncontrolled high cholesterol.

What to do: Set the students a class question; E.G- ‘What do we want to achieve from…’ Then ask students to SHOUT out their ONE sentence! Other students should write this down verbatim, in the exact order that they are said. The Teacher should not prompt anybody and should allow the students to state whatever they wish. Once, all students have said something and everyone has written it down… you move on to; Students should then read out the letter in whatever order they want. Students should again just SHOUT out their one sentence they want to read. Students could do this online? via www.padlet.com (Stream the comments…) Idea from www.twitter.com/peterhyman21

When parents have questions about their child's development, one way to answer those questions is through a process called evaluation or assessment. These terms refer to the process used to measure a child's development and progress, determine whether the child may be eligible for developmental supports and services, and to help determine what supports and services are needed. Information from an evaluation can help determine if your child is eligible for Early Intervention Colorado for Infants, Toddlers and Families, and help you to make decisions about next steps for your child and family. Request an Evaluation or Assessment A parent can request an evaluation or assessment based on any concern about a child's development by contacting Summit County School District Child Find service at (970) 668-4266. This is provided at no cost to you and should be provided within 45 days of when you first ask.

For more than a century, 1485 - 1603, the Tudor family reigned on the throne of England. It certainly was "The Tudor Age". Welsh connections to the first Henry Tudor places many of Welsh descent on some of the family tree branches. Such is my own family. Understanding this time in an ancestor's life helps place the factors that played a dominate role in their existence. Shirts, hats, hose, and all kinds of items are discussed in the book by Jasper Ridley titled: "A Brief History of The Tudor Age". The book was first published by Constable and Co. Ltd, in 1998. This paperback is published as "First Carroll & Graf edition, 2002". A fun read for those who like to color their family history pages.

Pleiad - in Greek mythology the Pleiades were the daughters of Atlas (the Titan holding up the sky), and there were SEVEN of them, just like in the group of seven stars called the Pleiades in the constellation of Taurus. Using this word to mean a group of brilliant people, but more than seven, is an example of a cliché /klišé/, in English as well as in Originally a cliché was the French word for an imprint of a wood engraving or block of type dropped into hot metal (imitating the sound it made). Then it came to mean a photographic negative, and finally a phrase or idiom which is used, copied and reproduced so many times that it loses its original šmrnc and becomes worn out and irritating. These phrases should be unusable, and English football commentators should not say that a coach is "over the moon" when his team wins, or "sick as a parrot" when they lose. Similarly, Slovak journalists should really STOP referring to a car ("osobné auto") as "štvorkolesový, oceľový tátoš", because that is a horrible cliché.

The method has applications even in very small concentrations of urea, and it can be used in a short time without the need for the preparation of the sample. The method can be used in future in the field of medicine to study the level of dialysis in the blood of patients. The researchers produced polypyrrole film with nanometric structure on the surface of platinum electrode through electrochemical synthesis in aqueous environment under nitrogen atmosphere by using a system containing three electrodes. Taking into consideration low vapor pressure of urea, a sorbent with high area is required to yield maximum amount of urea in headspace. The nanostructured fiber synthesized in this research has numerous pores and holes on its surface. Therefore, it is very appropriate to adsorb urea in the headspace. The most important parameter in this method is the vapor pressure of the sample. The higher the vapor pressure of the compound is, the better the conditions for the measurement of analyte will be. However, the three parameters of high tendency of urea to proton, high concentration of the compound in serum samples, and the use of nanostructured polypyrrole fiber somehow resolved the problem of low vapor pressure of the compound.

A team of bioengineers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital (BWH), led by Ali Khademhosseini, PhD, and Nasim Annabi, PhD, of the Biomedical Engineering Division, has developed a new protein-based gel that, when exposed to light, mimics many of the properties of elastic tissue, such as skin and blood vessels. In a paper published in Advanced Functional Materials, the research team reports on the new material’s key properties, many of which can be finely tuned, and on the results of using the material in preclinical models of wound healing. “We are very interested in engineering strong, elastic materials from proteins because so many of the tissues within the human body are elastic. If we want to use biomaterials to regenerate those tissues, we need elasticity and flexibility,” said Annabi, a co-senior author of the study. “Our hydrogel is very flexible, made from a biocompatible polypeptide and can be activated using light.”

(Phys.org)—A team of researchers affiliated with several institutions in South Africa has found that African penguins sometimes work together to corral fish to allow for more efficient foraging. In their paper published in the journal Royal Society Open Science, the group describes how they studied the birds, what they found and why they believe the penguins might go extinct if something does not change soon.

While the vast majority of Americans consider themselves unprejudiced, many of them unintentionally make snap judgments about people based on what they see—whether it’s race, age, gender, religion, sexuality, or disability. This may be a significant reason many people in the U.S. report they feel discriminated against. Subconscious prejudice—called “implicit bias”—has profound implications for how we view and interact with others who are different from us. It can hinder a person’s ability to find a job, secure a loan, rent an apartment, or get a fair trial, perpetuating disparities in American society. The Love Has No Labels campaign challenges us to open our eyes to our bias and prejudice and work to stop it in ourselves, our friends, our families, and our colleagues (campaign by Ad Council) The Ad Council is a private, non-profit organization that produces, distributes and promotes public service campaigns on behalf of non-profit organizations and government agencies in issue areas such as improving the quality of life for children, preventive health, education, community well being and strengthening families. -- Read "What does bias look like?" at Love Has No Labels -- Read about this on US weekly

Badminton is a sport that involves the volleying of a shuttlecock over a net with the use of rackets. Badminton is an aerobic sport that can be played for pleasure or for competition.Continue Reading Badminton is a sport that can improve the overall health of a person because of the aerobic exercise a person gets from participating. The teams that are playing badminton must constantly be moving around the court to help volley the shuttlecock to the opposing team. They must be able to volley it back to win the game. Players can play on teams or can play one on one. People who play one on one get a more intense workout because they are covering the entire court alone. Badminton also provides muscular exercise for the people who play it. People must be moving back and forth while staying on their feet and stretching to reach the shuttlecock. This constant movement can increase the strength and agility of the muscles. The movement allows the muscles to become more toned and works as well as lifting weights or doing simple muscular exercises. The sharp movements that are required of badminton players can also help people increase their ability to balance.Learn more about Classic Sports

Cold and allergy season is here, but it can often feel never-ending. It’s not always easy to figure out whether your symptoms belong to an allergy or the common cold, but a few clues can help you tell the two apart. An allergic reaction is a specific response of the body’s immune system to a normally harmless substance called an allergen. Environmental allergens include pollen from trees, weeds, and grasses as well as mold and dust. The rhinovirus, cause of the common cold, results in runny noses and may trigger asthma attacks in the fall and spring. Here are some common symptoms for colds and allergies: It’s always best to seek a medical consult for a diagnosis and treatment recommendations. Talk to your Meijer pharmacist or doctor to find out which medications are right for you.

Sixty years ago, the deliberate testing and analysis of soil samples netted two women — Elizabeth Hazen and Rachel Brown — the discovery of nystatin, the first useful antifungal antibiotic. Its producer, found residing in soil collected near a cow pasture, was a newly-identified member of the Streptomycetes, named Streptomyces noursei in honor of the owner of the pasture, a Mr. Nourse. Their discovery is appropriately celebrated in a blog that focuses on the actinomycetes and that we are very fond of: Twisted Bacteria. In the author’s words: This post modestly celebrates March 8th, International Women's Day. The discovery of nystatin seems a good example of an important contribution of women scientists to microbiology, natural product chemistry, and medicine. Women were well represented among the early discoverers of antibiotics, with cycloheximide and fosfomycin (and probably others) also to their credit. You can find additional links on the subject of women in microbiology in that celebratory post. We join the author, César Sánchez, in this salute.

Clinical Trials and Research for Lung Transplants Henry Ford is a national leader in improving treatments for lung disease. Our patients can try new therapies designed to improve lung function while awaiting a lung transplant. Improving lung disease care and transplants at Henry Ford Henry Ford researchers are involved in studies to: - Increase the number of donor lungs suitable for transplant: An experimental process allows our doctors to transplant donor lungs previously considered unfit due to poor oxygenation. Donor lungs are placed on an ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) machine. This machine improves the health of the lung by warming it, removing excess fluids, and providing fluids, nutrients and oxygen. - Develop new treatments for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): Earlier research findings from Henry Ford led to the development of new national standards of treatment for COPD. Learn more about our COPD research. - Identify sarcoidosis causes and treatments: Our researchers have been studying the causes of this genetic inflammatory lung disorder for nearly 60 years. We are also focused on developing new treatments. We helped identify racial differences in disease symptoms that are still in use in research today. Learn more about our sarcoidosis research.

I hiked a section of the beach today and got this interesting photo of two very different birds feeding together at the same time, a Western Snowy Plover in the background and a Western Sandpiper in the foreground. The plover is the bird we have been charged to help protect. They stay here year around and in fact breed and raise their young here. The Western Sandpiper is a migratory species, passing by here in the Spring to their breeding grounds in the northern tundra, and then returning back in the fall to winter as far away as South America. The Western Snowy Plover I see in small numbers, today I saw eleven. The Western Sandpipers I estimate at a ratio of 40 to 1, meaning I saw around 400.

Milton Avery; Mark Kurlansky; Vera Andrus; EJ Lefavour Cape Ann was formed in a great and lovely mishap. The black speckled white rock that covers, shapes and defines the cape, that even today stands immovable in backyards breaking up sidewalks, determining the paths of streets is an unusually dense and hard variety of granite. The density is characteristic of granite normally found deep in the earth. When the glaciers started moving south they carried with them rock churned up from below the surface. Off the coast of Massachusetts, the ice hit a crevice caused by a fault line and hung-up there, started to melt and deposited large amounts of rock. Cape Ann was formed. – MARK KURLANSKY The Last Fish Tale paperback 2008 edition, Chapter 2, p.20 Read now or save and print out later PDF

Cats pant after exercise to cool themselves. When cats pant, the warm air from the lungs leaves the body and water evaporates from the mouth and tongue, lowering the cats body temperature.Continue Reading Other ways cats cool themselves after exercise include sweating through the pads of their feet and licking their coats. Panting might also be a sign of heat stroke if breathing is labored and rapid or the cat is showing signs of anxiety. If the cat's owner suspects heat stroke, he or she should contact a veterinarian and attempt to cool the cat by applying cool water to the neck, groin and armpits and placing the cat in front of a fan. If the cat is wheezing or its breathing is noisy, it might indicate feline asthma, a respiratory infection or a tumor or foreign body blocking the airway.Learn more about Cats

An article appearing in today's Seattle Post-Intelligencer provides information about suggested possible changes to beer and wine regulations in Washington. What the article does not discuss is how beer and wine regulations affect underage drinking. The "prevention community" in Washington is particularly concerned about: 1) Pricing: Studies show that higher prices result in lower consumption and underage drinkers are especially susceptible to price. The use of minimum mark-ups and the ban on quantity discounts are two key environmental strategies for preventing underage drinking. 2) Money's Worth: Money's worth (promotional) items should be considered advertising and marketing items and should be governed by stricter advertising and marketing regulations. Too often, these items appeal to children and youth and should not be present or given out in areas (such as restaurants) where children and youth are present. This contributes to underage drinking. 3) Internet Sales/Shipping Alcohol Products: Any shipping of alcohol directly to consumers needs to be strictly controlled to ensure minors do not have access to alcohol this way.

The increasing rate of double mastectomies in women with unilateral breast cancer might be due to the aspiration of symmetry. Any kind of cancer can be controlled by eating a sufficient amount of healthy foods. The drug was approved as a first-line treatment for a type of breast cancer that is common in postmenopausal women. Ever since the past few decades, the rate of breast cancer patients has increased rapidly. Here's how you can reduce the chances of breast cancer by introducing simple changes in your lifestyle. A recent study conducted showed that Mediterranean diet reduces the chance of breast cancer. The diet usually consists of fruits, nuts, and vegetables. Exercise and controlled body weight helps recurrence of breast cancer, latest research claimed. The researchers claimed that about 30 minutes of moderate exercise and controlled diet might help prevent breast cancer from coming back. The researchers of a recent study found that participants with an RS of 11-25 had an invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) rate at five years of 92.6 percent with a median follow-up of 58 months. Once again the world witnessed the symbols of courage as the breast cancer survivors took part in the latest New York Fashion Week.

“Remember the Shabbos day to sanctify it.” (Shemos 20:8) It is a mitzvah to sanctify the Shabbos. We do this by reciting Kiddush at the beginning and Havdalah at the end; bathing, cleansing ourselves, and dressing up in honor of Shabbos before the day begins; and enjoying three meals of good food, as well as an additional meal after Shabbos. We should remember Shabbos every weekday, too. By saying each day, “This is the first day toward Shabbos,” “This is the second day toward Shabbos,” we remind ourselves that our success each day is linked to the understanding that Hashem created the universe in six days and rested on the seventh. If you come across something nice on a weekday, it is a mitzvah to put it aside for Shabbos. Text Copyright © 2007 by Rabbi Moshe Goldberger and Torah.org.

A British start-up wants to change the way the next generation thinks about computers. Rather than just grabbing a shiny iPad, what if kids got to learn about technology and how it works by actually making it themselves? The Kano is a DIY computer kit for kids ages eight and up. It doesn’t require any technical skills or complex tools—just a healthy curiosity and eagerness to learn how things work. The colorful kit comes with everything you need to put together a basic machine. Plus, once the computer is assembled, kids can use it to practice basic coding skills—including an introduction to all the basic coding languages. The idea behind the project is to get a new generation of kids to view technology less passively: not just as something that already exists for them to use, but as a process they can take part in. Along the way, they might just inspire the next Steve Jobs. The Kano Computer Kit is now available for $129.99 — 20 dollars off it’s normal price.

New semiconductor technology is advancing the development of house windows that could double as solar panels, according to scientists from Los Alamos National Lab and Italy. Their research into so-called “quantum dots” — ultra-small bits of semiconductors that transmit energy extremely efficiently and can be tuned toward specific colors — shows that quantum dots can be used in transparent materials to harvest sunlight with efficiencies comparable to standard solar panels. When highly transparent materials are embedded with quantum dots, they are known as luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs); the structures can absorb sunlight and re-radiate it at longer wavelengths directed toward the edge of the slab, where the energy is collected by a solar cell. “The LSC serves as a light-harvesting antenna that concentrates solar radiation collected from a large area onto a much smaller solar cell, and this increases its power output,” the lead researcher explained. In tests using large LSC slabs (sized in tens of centimeters), researchers reported harvesting photons at roughly 10 percent efficiency. Typical photovoltaic solar panels have an average efficiency of about 15 percent.

However, most tilapia sold in the U.S. is imported from Latin America and Asia, where fish are raised in outdoor freshwater farms. In Ecuador, tilapia are grown at low densities alongside shrimp to reduce water pollution. The result is less disease and chemical use. In China and Taiwan, problems with escaped fish and water pollution have been greatly reduced, however chemical use is still a concern

Authentic student to teacher feedback for an engaged classroom Help teachers get the feedback they want Teachers create a class and set goals or questions to understand the impact of their teaching. Students, other teachers and heads of department provide feedback to help teachers refine their practice. Teachers review their feedback and adapt their teaching to maximise student learning. Data is retained and viewable only by each teacher, but can be easily shared with colleagues and mentors. Create a safe space for students to shape their learning Feedback can be anonymous so students feel safe being honest. Students can also set goals and request feedback – from their teachers or even their classmates. Be truly responsive to student needs to create an engaging classroom that best supports learning outcomes. Build a classroom for the 21st century Move to a feedback model that is continuous and truly in the moment – not just at the end of term or year. Replace the effort of pen and paper surveys with ongoing feedback in a few clicks. Keep all feedback in one place, allowing for reflection anywhere, anytime. Track progress against development goals through data analytics. Create a genuine 360° feedback school, with teachers, students and school leaders able to set goals and receive feedback.

Glue, like paste or cement, joins things together. These materials are known as adhesives because they make things adhere, or stick together. Stickiness, however, is not all that it takes. In order for an adhesive to be practical, it must change from a soft liquid to a hard solid within a short period of time. Sticky substances such as honey, syrup, and chewing gum are not good adhesives because they take too long to harden. If you were to look at any solid substance under a microscope, you would notice that even those we think of as perfectly smooth actually have bumps and spaces. Suppose you are making a model that requires you to join two pieces of wood. You would apply the adhesive to one surface and place the other on top. What the glue does is flow into all the little bumps and spaces of the two surfaces of wood. When it dries and hardens, it grips the two surfaces together. Glue is made from the skin, bones, and tissues of animals and fish!

Justice does not mean equality. In a poem, in the universe, in mathematics, in architecture—everywhere there is natural justice, justice means inequality, yin and yang, male and female, higher and lower, East and West, light and darkness, land and water. No flat, dull repetition but uniqueness. In human relationships, too, justice does not mean equality, but treating equals equaly and unequals unequally. Is it just to treat a pig like a man? If so, it is also just to treat a man like a pig. One of the astonishing blind spots of modernity is its unquestioning fixation on equality. – Peter Kreeft, Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Heaven, 30-31.

A January 2010 study shows that amputation pain, including emotional health and pain-coping responses is much different for women than men. In the Journal of Pain, 335 adult patients asked about the level of amputation pain and intensity (phantom pain or residual limb pain), it was clear that women reported both greater pain intensity and more anxiety about that pain. They were also more likely to note that their pain interfered with their daily activities. Unfortunately, the results of this study show that women may be more susceptible to the “negative functional consequences of limb loss pain,” according to the University of Washington School of Medicine’s researchers. On top of this, women may suffer even more psychological problems related to that pain than men. Read more about the study: Sex differences in pain and psychological functioning in persons with limb loss. Does this mean that all pain is experienced differently by women? Do you believe that you experience pain in a different way than your male counterpart?

When I am writing documents in Microsoft Word on my Windows computer, I find the blinking cursor distracting. I would prefer a solid line rather than one that flashes constantly. How can I change it? It is possible to adjust the cursor’s blink rate through the Control Panel. In Windows XP, click on the Start Menu, then on Control Panel. Click on Switch to Classic View if the option appears in the top left, then double-click on Keyboard. At the bottom where it says Cursor blink rate, move the slider all the way to the left, where it says None. It’s even easier in Windows 7. Click the Start icon, then type keyboard into the search box at the bottom. In the list of results, click Keyboard, which will be listed under a header called Control Panel. Then move the slider to the left where it says None, so the blinking stops. So, whether you like your cursor flashing like some Swarovski Crystal beads, or whether you prefer something solid, now you know how to change it.

| || | 1. My partner and I turned off all of our senses besides our sense of sight. My partner dropped the ruler without saying "go," he just dropped the ruler and it was up to my fingers to do the rest of the job. 2. My partner and I did similar things like all the others. We turned off all of our senses besides our hearing. My partner said "go!" this time and then my reaction time was lower (which is a good thing). 3. When it was time to only use my sense of touch I closed my eyes and turned off my hearing sight so my hands would do all the work. Then, My partner dropped the ruler and it seemed that my reaction time was higher... 4. It was more difficult to catch the ruler with one sense. I think this because usually, using all your senses seem to be easier to use all at one time. 5. By using your sense of smell catching the ruler was possible. 6. we were not allowed to use sense of taste. one possible way could be to use your tongue. 7. We didd not have a SRB so this question can not be answered.

Team shooting drill, create teams from 2 to 5 players. Each player shoots 3 times. Give points to the times. Made layup > 1pt. Made shot > 2pt. Made 3 point shot > 3pt First player dribbles to the other side of the court around one of the pylons, makes a layup, and takes the rebound. After rebounding the player dribbles to the 3-point line and takes his second shot. The player takes the rebound and dribbles towards the other side. When he reaches the mid circle he passes to a team member at the top of the bucket. Player 1 continues to run and touches the board. Player 1, runs around the pylon and receives a pass from 2. Player 1 takes his shot, player 2 rebounds and begins with his round of 3 shots. Player 1 takes the place of player 2 at the top of the bucket. As this drill is focused on speed, it should not be used as a warming-up exercise. Submitted by: Olivier Hirsch Categories: Shooting, Passing, Conditioning, Rebounding

COLLEGE STATION (AgriLife Today) – Agricultural losses in Texas from the 2011 drought totaled $7.62 billion, setting a record for the costliest drought in history, according to economists from Texas AgriLife Extension Service. Record-high temperatures, coupled with record-low precipitation and high winds, devastated production. Water supplies dwindled, thwarting production of hay and other crops, as well as inciting large sales of livestock. Texas’ biggest category loss was livestock ($3.23 billion), followed by cotton ($2.2 billion), lost hay production ($750 million) and corn ($736 million). The deficit from the 2011 drought is higher than the $5.2 billion in losses previously reported. AgriLife Extension economists have recorded losses from droughts six times since 2000. The previous record was set in 2006, with $4.1 billion in losses.

StemCellShorts - What are embryonic stem cells? Part 2 in a series of short (around 1 minute) animated videos answering basic questions about stem cell research. This video is about embryonic stem cells and is narrated by Janet Rossant. Since their first discovery, embryonic stem (ES) cells have been the focus of intense research and public scrutiny. Derived from discarded 5-day old embryos (typically obtained from patients undergoing in vitro fertilization), this type of stem cell possesses the ability to create any tissue in the human body and replicate indefinitely in culture conditions. Because of these properties, ES cells represent a unique research opportunity to understand human development and create new therapies for disease.

Bush walking refers to those walking experiences in natural or green areas. Bush walking can vary from a short walk in a nearby forest or coastline to multi-day expeditions in which you carry your own food and gear. Bush walking combines the physical exercise of hiking with the physical experience of being amongst nature. Bush walkers rely mainly on endurance depending on the length of the walk. Building up strength is useful for bush walkers to prevent injury to joints and muscles during their bush walking experiences. Supplementing with Joint Complex provides support to joints on long walks on often uneven surfaces. Recuper8 helps fuel the body with protein and carbohydrates during the walk keeping the body anabolic to ensure endurance. Taking ZMA Capsules before bed allows the body to relax and recover at the end of a day of hiking through nature.

Wednesday, December 16, 2015 #StorytimeChristmasCountdown Day 16: How the Grinch Stole Christmas! How the Grinch Stole Christmas! by: Dr. Seuss Rightfully a Considered a Classic This tale is truly a classic, while not religious its intent is to show that THINGS aren't what make Christmas, and that we can choose to be happy even when we lack things we may want. The text is charmingly written in rhyme, and the illustrations are black pen drawings with some red accents. Those familiar with the Christmas special of the same name will notice that all of the illustrations are included in the special, but in full color. Definitely a book worthy of personal library inclusion. To see other books in the #StorytimeChristmasCountdown Collection, click here.

Saturday, January 30, 2010 NPS Web Page Chronicles Yosemite Valley Rock Falls Via Yosemite.blog.com, here is a link to a new web page on the rockfall history of Yosemite Valley. Besides a report on rockfalls in 2009 (there were 52), the page includes a wealth of links to other resources about mass wasting phenomena in the region. The map above chronicles the location of all the major rockfalls from 1857 to 2009. It was a big year in the valley for this sort of thing. The Ahwiyah Rockfall actually changed the appearance of Yosemite as seen from the Wawona Tunnel and Glacier Point forever, and was the largest rockfall in 22 years. Luckily no one was hurt or injured.

Abstract of Freame, J.,”Female Film Stars and the Dominant Ideologies of 1950s America”. During the 1950s, the fear and paranoia associated with Cold War anti-communism and the nuclear arms race resulted in the dominance of conservative ideologies within American society. In particular, women became symbols of the freedom and democracy that required protection from outside forces while the idealisation of the nuclear family and its related values relied heavily on traditional gender roles. This article argues that female film stars played a pivotal role in representing and reinforcing these dominant ideologies to the American people within the complex and ambiguous context of the 1950s. An exploration of the very different, yet equally popular, images of Marilyn Monroe and Doris Day reveals the intrinsic relationship between Hollywood and the dominant ideologies of the American nation.

5. apply systematic listing strategies including use of the product rule for counting The new UK GCSE specifications now include systematic listing strategies. Some resources for this topic: Transum Mathematics has many excellent resources including a section on Combinations, where you will find Combinations starters, activities and investigations. The Transum site includes links to some videos includes The Counting Principle which provides a clear introduction. Note Transum’s clear index for teachers and for students, Maths Map with numerous activities to support their learning. Nrich has a sophisticated problem, Fraction Combinations which not only asks students to systematically list possibilities but work with fractions too. AQA have a very clear Teaching Guidance document with many useful examples, I use these a lot in class. If you use or are considering using AQA you can register here (there seems to be a problem with the link on the Teaching Guidance document page). And finally (for now!) Don Steward has this bracelets or necklaces problem. Have a look at this post on Just Maths: Product Rule for Counting which includes Pearson / Edexcel exam questions and solutions.

A shrub or tree from ten to thirty feet high. Leaves. - Divided into eleven to thirty-one somewhat lance-shaped, toothed leaflets. Flowers. - Greenish or yellowish-white, in upright terminal clusters, some perfect, others unisexual, appearing in June. Fruit. - Crimson, small, globular, hairy. This is the common sumach which illuminates our hill-sides every autumn with masses of flame-like color. Many of us would like to decorate our homes with its brilliant sprays, but are deterred from handling them by the fear of being poisoned, not knowing that one glance at the crimson fruit-plumes should reassure us, as the poisonous sumachs are white-fruited. These tossing pyramidal fruit-clusters at first appear to explain the common title of staghorn sumach. It is not till the foliage has disappeared, and the forked branches are displayed in all their nakedness, that we feel that these must be the feature in which the common name originated.

A new large-scale study published in The Lancet contradicts the assumption that a longer old age will inevitably be accompanied by more ill health. In 1998 researchers in Denmark assessed 2,262 people born in 1905, when they were aged 92 to 93, using a series of thorough mental and physical tests designed to assess factors such as memory, grip strength and mobility. In 2010 a further 1,584 people born in 1915, when they were aged 94 to 95, were assessed using the same tests. Despite being 2 years older, those born in 1915 scored significantly better than those born in 1905 on both the cognitive tests and the activities of daily living score, demonstrating that they were mentally much sharper and found day-to-day life easier. photo by: Ann Gordon

Sudan dyes are red dyes that are used in a variety of textiles, rubber, plastics, solvents, oils and shoe and floor polishes. In most countries, the dyes have been banned, but they are still found in a variety foods. In 2005, the dyes were found in more than 500 foods, including brands of Worcestershire sauces, fast-food dressings, potato chips and prepared soups. Manufacturers use the dyes to enhance and maintain the color of their food products. In August 2015, the Ghanaian Food and Drug Authority (FDA) investigated a palm oil product that contained Sudan Dye IV. The product was exported to the United Kingdom. In October, the FDA issued a warning about the Sudan dye in palm oil sold in Ghana and began to remove the product from store shelves.

Being a parent comes with a lot of responsibilities, and one of them is to ensure that your child’s teeth are healthy. With proper guidance, you can make sure your children are doing the right things for their teeth. In the long run, these will become routine oral care habits that they will carry on until their adult years. You should first focus on the preventative care steps. Make sure they are eating the right foods and cutting down on sugary snacks, such as candy and chocolate. These foods may sound good to your child and seem enjoyable to eat, but they can cause cavities to develop. Also, emphasize to your child the importance of brushing teeth three times a day. They may see it as tedious, but you can try to make it a game. That way, they look forward to brushing their teeth because they get encouragement or a reward out of it.

Precautions before they begin (HealthDay News) — If your child has a desire to run, you should encourage this great form of exercise that requires very little equipment. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take precautions, the American Council on Exercise says. Here’s the council’s advice: - Check with your pediatrician before the child starts running, to make sure there are no potential health issues. - Remember that a child can’t perform at the same level as an adult. - Take it easy in extreme weather. On hot days, make sure your child drinks plenty of extra fluids. - Teach a young runner to warm up, cool down and how to stretch the muscles. Also teach proper form. - Always honor your child’s wishes when he or she asks to stop. - Make sure the goals your child sets are realistic and attainable. – Diana Kohnle Copyright © 2012 HealthDay.

Recently, some people asked me, "Is scoliosis inherited?" Is it one of the Murphy's Law? (<- Do you remmember?) Often one asked me a thing another one ask me same thing, and few more people follow them. Anyway, I explain about scoliosis as Q&A style today. Q. What is the scoliosis? A. Scoliosis is a medical condition in which a person's spine is curved from side to side. Although it is a complex three-dimensional deformity on an X-ray, viewed from the rear, the spine of an individual with scoliosis may look more like an "S" or a "C" than straight line. (by wikipedia) Q. Does scoliosis infect? Q. What is the cause of scoliosis? A. Today, most of cases of causes are unknown. However there are categorized as below: Secondary to a neuromusculr disease 10% So some (many) translate difficulty were there (as always (१▽१*)).

Omaha, NE – Dr. Jessica Snowden of UNMC says MRSA is a bacterial infection that is resistant to certain kinds of antibiotics and may cause abscesses if left untreated. She says MRSA may cause infections where there's a break in the skin or an irritated place that allows the bacteria to enter the soft tissue. Dr. Snowden says there are ways you can protect yourself and your children. One of the best ways to protect yourself from a potential infection is to wash your hands. Also, when children have cuts, scrapes or bruises, it's a good idea to wash these wounds well and keep them covered with a band aid of some type to reduce the risk of infection. Dr. Snowden also says anything that looks as though it may be infected should be treated sooner rather than later. The sooner children can start antibiotics for these infections; the less likely they are to develop abscesses or other problems. Dr. Snowden says even though this seems like a new and scary thing, doctors have been dealing with it for several years. She says, "there are still several antibiotics that work very well to treat these infections and so this is something that is very manageable."

The idea of writing about what we can never know – the interior lives of people other than ourselves – was born within the fertile hybrid culture of 12th-century England. Fiction was invented in England in the 12th century; we might pinpoint a few years around the 1150s as the crucial moment. At the middle of the century England had a multilingual literary culture, three languages in constant, fruitful contact and a hybrid national culture in the making. It had just emerged from a long and bitter civil war; the Conqueror’s son, Henry I, had died in 1135 leaving a daughter, Matilda, as his only legitimate heir and her cousin, Stephen of Blois, had seized the throne. When in 1153 King Stephen finally made peace with Matilda’s son, Henry of Anjou, who came to the throne as Henry II the following year, he was accompanied by Eleanor of Aquitaine. She brought with her one further addition: the culture of the troubadours, the celebratory lyric poetry and music of courtly life and love, which originated in southern France. This was the world into which fiction would make its entrance.

Monday, December 27, 2010 December 27, 2010 : Ring of Fire Ring of Fire The Pacific Ring of Fire (or sometimes just the Ring of Fire) is an area where large numbers of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur in the basin of the Pacific Ocean. In a 40,000 km (25,000 mi) horseshoe shape, it is associated with a nearly continuous series of oceanic trenches, volcanic arcs, and volcanic belts and/or plate movements. The Ring of Fire has 452 volcanoes and is home to over 75% of the world's active and dormant volcanoes. It is sometimes called the circum-Pacific belt or the circum-Pacific seismic belt. About 90% of the world's earthquakes and 80% of the world's largest earthquakes occur along the Ring of Fire. The next most seismic region (5–6% of earthquakes and 17% of the world's largest earthquakes) is the Alpide belt, which extends from Java to Sumatra through the Himalayas, the Mediterranean, and out into the Atlantic. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is the third most prominent earthquake belt.

The Leta-Leta Cave, located at Langen Island, El Nido, Palawan, is an important burial site under the Late Neolithic Period of the Philippines. Excavated in 1965 by Dr. Robert Fox, the cave has a collection of stone and shell artifacts, potteries and nephrite adzes and axes. Also, yielded in the cave are two unique and beautiful pieces of potteries. One was a stem cup with an egg-like body, a round flat base and a narrow lip at its mouth. The second one was a double-gourd vessel which is an anthropomorphic jar depicting facial features. - Archaeology. http://nmuseum.tripod.com/archaeo.htm (accessed on August 7, 2007). - "The New Stone Age."

A POKER face. It is the expressionless gaze that gives nothing away. To win at poker, the face must be mastered, and master it is what the best players try their best to do. But a study just published in Psychological Science by Michael Slepian of Stanford University and his colleagues suggests that even people with the best poker faces give the game away. They do so, however, not with their heads but with their hands. Mr Slepian made his discovery when he showed 78 undergraduate volunteers video clips of players placing bets at the 2009 World Series of Poker. (Bets in poker are placed by pushing chips into the middle of the table.) The clips were 1.6 seconds long, on average, and featured different parts of the players’ anatomies. Some showed everything visible from the table up: chest, arms and head. Some showed just the face. And some showed only the arms and hands. Each volunteer watched only one of the three types of video, but was shown several examples. Read the whole story: The Economist

A picture book for young readers about a little known woman in the conservation movement. Everyone recognizes the contributions of others such as John Muir, Teddy Roosevelt and Rachel Carson of their time, in raising the awareness of setting aside land for preservation. In Mardy Murie Did, the reader finds out about a woman from Alaska who was among the first to champion scientific study of Northern Alaska and the Grand Teton Range of Wyoming. A trail blazer in any number of ways, Mardy Murie was recognized with every major environmental award, and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from Bill Clinton. Beautifully illustrated, this picture book is a excellent introduction into further study of a woman scientist and naturalist.

The ancient Greeks were not only the founders of western philosophy, but the actual term "philosophy" is Greek in origin, most likely dating back to the late sixth century BC. Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Pythagoras, Euclid, and Thales are but a few of the better-known philosophers of ancient Greece. During the amazingly fertile period running from roughly the middle of the first millennium BC to the middle of the first millennium AD, the world saw the rise of science, numerous schools of thought, and―many believe―the birth of modern civilization. The A to Z of Ancient Greek Philosophy presents the history of Greek philosophy and the philosophers who made it famous. This is accomplished through a chronology, an introduction, a glossary, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on important philosophers, concepts, issues, and events.

Students will use produce that could be grown on Mars to create meals for astronauts. As part of an initiative called the Green Cuisine Challenge, students chosen from school districts in Miami, FL will prepare vegan meals for visiting NASA astronauts. The competition—called “The Voyages of Plants”—is inspired by the recent Matt Damon film The Martian and is based on the idea that astronauts will be able to grow certain plants on longer journeys to Mars in the future. Students were given a list of items that would potentially grow on The Red Planet and then asked to create dishes that would provide astronauts with the most caloric density per square centimeter of growing space within the parameters of the zero gravity space station. Program manager Marion Litzinger said, “We received some fantastic recipes that students either developed on their own or changed from traditional ones.” On the other side of the world, The Mars Food Project in the Netherlands has successfully grown foods such as tomatoes, quinoa, spinach, and rye on simulated Martian soil. Lead ecologist Doctor Wieger Wamelink revealed that their plan does not involve raising animals for food on Mars, which means that every conceptualization of human life on The Red Planet is decidedly vegan.

Fecal Incontinence, also known as loss of bowel control, is the uncontrollable loss of solid or liquid stool (feces) not due to temporary illness. It can range anywhere between light staining in undergarments to complete evacuations. The ability to control your bowels, also called continence, requires the anal muscles and nervous system to be functioning normally. There are two groups of muscles responsible for holding stool in the rectum, the external anal sphincter, and the internal anal sphincter. Normal continence also requires your nerves to be able to sense the presence of stool in the rectum, and then relax and store stool when having a bowel movement is not convenient. Fecal Incontinence can affect people of any age for a variety of reasons such as muscle or nerve damage. Common symptoms include: – accidents without warning – incomplete evacuations – staining on clothing – uncontrollable urge to have a bowel movement – constipation or diarrhea – Not being able to get to the bathroom on time To learn more about fecal incontinence, you can visit the National Institute of Health’s page on Fecal Incontinence.

Capsule Endoscopy is used to evaluate the middle portion of your gastrointestinal tract (duodenum, ileum and jejunum) and is useful in determining a source of bleeding, diagnosing ulcers or even detecting tumors. Capsule endoscopy is achieved by swallowing a pill-sized camera, (usually in the early morning). This pill has a light and camera to take pictures along your digestive tract as your body passes the capsule. You will also be asked to wear a recording device that stores the pictures as they are taken and will be downloaded at the end of your study (usually at the end of the day). Your physician will review these pictures and relay the findings to you. The capsule is expelled through your stool, similar to food after it’s digested.

Vitamin D is vital for calcium absorption in bones and to improve muscle strength. Not getting enough vitamin D in childhood can slow growth or cause misshapen bones (rickets), and not getting enough vitamin D throughout life increases the risk for bone thinning (osteoporosis) in later years. In order to get enough vitamin D, most Canadians need to eat foods that have the vitamin and also take a vitamin D supplement. Vitamin D is in foods such as egg yolks, liver, saltwater fish, and vitamin D-fortified dairy products. Vitamin D supplements often come in combination with calcium.

Consider two toys that look and work the same. One is made locally with environmentally-friendly processes and materials and is priced at $3.69. The other is very carbon-intensive and is imported into our market with a price of $2.19. How can we encourage industries and consumers to choose the products that take the environment into account? Enter border carbon adjustments. This animation explains how a domestic carbon pricing strategy in combination with taxing carbon-intensive products at borders can lead to a greener economy. For more information on this trade-savvy approach to reducing carbon emissions, read CIGI Post-Doctoral Fellow Maria Panezi’s paper, “When CO2 Goes to Geneva: Taxing Carbon across Borders — Without Violating WTO Obligations,” and listen to her interview on the CIGI Podcast.

Thousands march in Paris against racism Thousands — including political party members, members of the civil society — stage a march against racism on Nov. 30, 2013 in Paris, France. Credit: Omur Melih Uzelce/Anadolu Agency/Getty Images Thousands marched through central Paris on Saturday to celebrate the thirty-year anniversary of France’s national anti-racist movement. The first “March for Equality and Against Racism” was held in Paris on Dec. 3, 1983. The demonstrators marched to Place de la Bastille — the famed site of the “storming of the Bastille” that now serves as a galvanizing landmark for protests and other political events. According to Radio France Internationale, union members as well as the leader of the far-Left Front de Gauche party, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, attended the event.

There are several options that might be appropriate for this student or for others in a similar situation. Some scanners come with software enabling the user to scan directly into a PDF document; however, it is more likely that you will have to purchase either Adobe Acrobat or third-party software that will allow you to convert scanned documents into PDF. Converting the scanned image would enable you to maintain the original layout of the document and still work with Natural Reader since it is capable of reading PDFs as well as MS Word documents. Having the capability to convert documents to PDF could also be beneficial for other students, as the newer versions of Adobe Reader have improved read out loud capabilities. This could be helpful for students who don't have access to a screen reader at home. You could convert any text to a PDF and students could hear it read aloud using the free Reader program. If purchasing additional software is not a feasible option, you may also try searching for a digital version of the text online. Learning Ally has audio versions of many textbooks, and websites such as BookShare and Project Gutenberg have electronic books freely available for download (BookShare provides books free for users with documented print disabilities).

The Indian Councils Act 1892 was passed by the Parliament of the United Kingdom. The main provisions of the bills were as under: - The number of non-official members was increased, both in Central and Provincial legislatures. - The universities, zamindars, municipalities, etc. were authorized to recommend members to Provincial Councils. This was the introduction of the Principle of Representation. - This act allowed the councils to discuss each year’s annual financial statement. - The number of the Additional Members of the Governor General Executive Council was raised up to 16. - Under this act two-fifth of the members of the council was to be non-official. - The Additional Members of the Council could ask questions of public interest under this Act. - The numbers of the Additional Members of the provincial councils were also raised, for Bengal it was 20 and 15 for the Awadh. It can be stated that this Act was the cautious extension of the Act of 1861. One of the drawbacks of the 1892 Act was that it was impossible for non-official members to express any demands against the official bloc. Even after this Act was passed the Government approved many bills regardless of the fact that the Indian Members strongly opposed them.

Location: 7.542° S, 110.442° E Elevation: 2.947 m Merapi, one of Indonesia's most active volcanoes, lies in one of the world's most densely populated areas and dominates the landscape immediately north of the major city of Yogyakarta. Merapi is the youngest and southernmost of a volcanic chain extending NNW to Ungaran volcano. Growth of Old Merapi volcano beginning during the Pleistocene ended with major edifice collapse perhaps about 2000 years ago, leaving a large arcuate scarp cutting the eroded older Batulawang volcano. Subsequently growth of the steep-sided Young Merapi edifice, its upper part unvegetated due to frequent eruptive activity, began SW of the earlier collapse scarp. Pyroclastic flows and lahars accompanying growth and collapse of the steep-sided active summit lava dome have devastated cultivated lands on the volcano's western-to-southern flanks and caused many fatalities during historical time. The volcano is the object of extensive monitoring efforts by the Merapi Volcano Observatory. Photo: Rolf Cosar Yogyakarta, Februar 1996

1966: The Acoustic Modem is Improved for General Use The acoustically coupled modem, which sends digital date over phone lines as audio pulses, was invented in the early 1960's, but it wasn't until John Van Geen at the Stanford Research Institute improved the device that it became available for general use. Phone companies at this time did not allow unapproved devices to be attached to phone lines, but Van Geen won approval for the modem by making it mimic the characteristics of an ordinary handset. He also greatly improved the ability of the modem to extract data bits from the background hiss of standard telephone connections. Until the 1980's acoustic modems operated by inserting a standard phone handset into the two soundproofed depressions on the modem chassis. The acoustic modem set off the era of the so-called "dumb terminal" - a video display that could do nothing in and of itself unless hooked up to a remote computer via a modem. The era lasted until the late 1970's when computers became small enough for the display monitor to sit on top of the computer itself.

Leh was the capital of the Himalayan kingdom of Ladakh, now the Leh district in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. Leh district, with an area of 45,110 km2, is the second largest district in the country, after Kutch, Gujarat. The town is dominated by the ruined Leh Palace, the former mansion of the royal family of Ladakh, built in the same style and about the same time as the Potala Palace the chief residence of the Dalai Lama until the 14th Dalai Lama fled to Dharamsala, India, during the 1959 Tibetan uprising. Leh is at an altitude of 3,524 metres and is connected via National Highway 1D to Srinagar in the south-west and to Manali in the south via the Leh-Manali Highway. In 2010, Leh was heavily damaged by the sudden floods caused by a cloudburst.

Changes in Nature As spring approaches, children can choose a twig outdoors to keep track of. A record (daily or weekly) can be kept of the changes in shape, size, and colors of the twig. Narcissus bulbs planted in gravel and water - when do the flower buds first appear, when do they first give off a fragrance, how long are the roots? All these changes can be recorded on a chart. Where is the sun in the sky at a certain time of the day (same time every day)? What is the temperature at a certain time of the day (same time every day)?

Posted: January 13, 2010 We have focused on all lowercase letters of the alphabet, and are now moving forward with the uppercase letters. Although the children have a great deal of exposure to both uppercase and lowercase letters letters of the alphabet on a daily basis, we are now focusing on the letter formation of uppercase letters in greater detail. At the same time, we will be reviewing lowercase formation, letter sounds etc. This week we worked with Allie Alligator's letter Aa, and Bubba Bear's letter Bb. We will continue on through the alphabet, focusing on 2 letters per week.
