A night guard also called a splint or occlusal guard is a device made of rigid acrylic material placed in the mouth over the teeth to keep you from grinding your teeth. The mouth guards help to raise the bite and put the jaw in a position that helps relieve the patient from any discomfort and pain. Are you a victim of teeth grinding or bruxism? If yes, then do you know how to stop clenching teeth at night? Treatment options include mouth splint or mouth guard, muscle relaxants, addressing the psychological problem such as stress, anxiety, etc. Teeth grinding (referred to as bruxism) is an involuntary habit of excessive grinding of teeth. If teeth grinding is not treated on time, then it might have serious health consequences. Uncontrolled bruxism triggers some considerable effect on temporomandibular joint, jaw muscles and can also lead to severe sleeping disorders. There are two types of bruxism as Nocturnal bruxism and Diurnal bruxism.

Wheelchair Transportation Safety Motor vehicle transportation, whether in private, public, or school-bus vehicles, is vital in today’s society. Ready access to transportation is not only essential for most occupations and education, but also for accessing healthcare providers, religious services, recreation and leisure activities, shopping, voting, and many other community activities and services. As reported by the National Council on Disability, the need for transportation is even greater for individuals who use wheelchairs, including those who are unable to transfer out of their wheelchair when traveling (Bureau of Transportation Statistics, 2002; National Council on Disability, 2005). In situations where the wheelchair must function as a motor-vehicle seat, serious concerns arise. Transportation safety and occupant crash-protection studies have shown that a motor vehicle seat is an important part of an occupant-protection system.

Higher standards for specialist science teacher training The NSW Government is setting a new standard for excellence across STEM subjects by requiring universities to teach the specialist subjects during teacher training. A teacher’s strong knowledge of their core subjects will improve student engagement and success in HSC science courses. Education Minister Rob Stokes said teachers should be masters of the course content to instruct, inform and inspire students. “These new standards mean the community can continue to have confidence that NSW teachers have deep discipline knowledge,” Mr Stokes said. The NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) records teacher subject specialisations and lists them on teachers’ letter of accreditation.

Digitialisation enables human-machine interaction and interaction between people over great geographic distances. Digitalisation also gives rise to large amounts of data, not least that associated with the phenomenon of industrial IT, social media and the Internet of Things. The question is how can all this data be transformed into meaningful information and provide a basis for better decisions and actions. More specifically, we examine how explorative data visualisation can inform and be used to create meaning from otherwise incalculable amounts of data. An additional example of large information and communication platforms are our social media. Here we are interested in how interaction takes place, both with and through the media, and how use shapes the media. We also conduct research on digital materiality and research into IT use, interaction and experiences - the interactions between humans and computers and within different types of social activities.

This small lake high in the Colorado Rocky Mountains is part of a fragile ecosystem formed by a geological fault in which the water pooled. The lake’s unique color is due to dissovled carbonate minerals. Visiting this national protected area surrounded by limestone cliffs, cottonwoods trees, and cascades requires a bit of effort: a steep 1,000-foot climb to an altitude of over 7,000 feet. Early autumn colors tint the gently sloping countryside surrounding this quiet loch in the Scottish highlands. The rugged peaks of Wyoming’s Teton Range are casting their shadows on the quiet waters of Jackson Lake. This is my entry in today’s challenge hosted by Australian photographer, Leanne Cole.

An air purifier that uses the centrifugal force created by water revolving in a tank to draw the water into the upper compartment, from where a fan vaporizes it into the air. Water that is not vaporized is caught by the sides of the compartment and returns to the tank. Research into the most efficient form for the water's circulation determined the purifier's spherical shape. Locating the motor and controls at an angle above the tank allowed Nendo to position the entry point for the electrical cord low to the ground for a clean look. Angling the form meant that the intake and outtake vents are a distance from each other, creating ideal air convection. A design seeking 'pure form' in air and water.

In order to use these methods, we have to start out with a system in which no daughter element is present, or else know how much daugher element was present initially so that it can be subtracted out. We also need to know that no parent or daughter has entered or left the system in the meantime. Assuming we start out with pure parent, as time passes, more and more daughter will be produced. A ratio of infinity (that is, all daughter and no parent) means an age of essentially infinity. By measuring the ratio of daughter to parent, we can measure how old the sample is. Each radioactive element has a half-life, which tells how long it takes for half of the element to decay. For potassium 40, the half-life is about 1.3 billion years.

The term was coined by critic Edmund Gosse in an 1876 article in Art Journal titled The New Sculpture in which he identified this new trend in sculpture. Its distinguishing qualities were a new dynamism and energy as well as physical realism, mythological or exotic subject matter and use of symbolism, as opposed to prevailing style of frozen neoclassicism. It can be considered part of symbolism. The keynote work was seen by Gosse as Lord Fredrick Leighton’s Athlete Wrestling with a Python, but the key artist was Sir Alfred Gilbert followed by Sir George Frampton. An Important precursor was Michelangelesque work of Alfred Stevens.

The Guardian (sentence in bold was omitted), 25 November 2015: History provides us with several examples of societies collapsing through force of habit, including an addiction to meat (Tax on meat not too hard to swallow, study suggests, 24 November). When the Vikings colonised Greenland in the 10th century, they were determined to preserve their tribal customs, which included raising cattle. Because pasture was limited and the growing season only three months, virtually all of the land was used to grow silage to see the cattle through the winter. After nine months indoors, cattle were so weak they had to be carried out to pasture. The irony is that they were surrounded by a plentiful source of protein in the oceans, but another Viking custom in Greenland was a refusal to eat fish. When the climate turned harsher this agricultural system became unsustainable and the Vikings of Greenland perished. I wonder whether the modern world will fare any better as we career towards climate catastrophe. Dr Robin Russell-Jones Stoke Poges, Buckinghamshire

After graduating from medical school in 1947, Dr. Tom Mayer took a temporary job with the Mississippi State Department of Health while waiting to begin his internship. In this episode, he remembers trying to vaccinate school children in Walthall County. Later, he returned to McComb to set up a medical practice at the urging of a friend. In the mid-1950s, Mayer was hired by the Illinois Central Railroad to be the company doctor. He discusses the advantages and disadvantages of being a railroad physician. At that time, penicillin had only recently been discovered. He recalls the limited number of available drugs and one old doctor’s story of a fifty-cent price limit. Working around trains has always been a dangerous job and as a railroad doctor, Mayer has seen it all. He recounts some of his more memorable cases and reflects on the many friendships he collected during his career. (contains a bit of graphic description of a patient's injuries)

Hawaiian Legends of Tricksters and Riddlers According to some of the oldest and least-known of Hawaii's legends, man became a trickster to survive, and later became a riddler to win a place for himself in society. Vivian Thompson's tales, written for youngsters, are based on some of the earliest recorded versions of these legends; they instruct and delight readers of today as the oral traditions of old captivated their audiences. The first voyagers to Hawaii were filled with terror of the unknown terrain inhabited by evil spirits. Fearless fellows, tricksters - those who could match wits not only against nature, spirits, and monsters but also against chiefs and kings who held the power of life and death - became the heroes of the common people. As trickster legends emerged from primitive Hawaii, so riddler legends grew from later Hawaii, where mental as well as physical skills were admired.

ESA’s Solar Orbiter is launching from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in February 2020. The mission will answer some of the biggest questions in solar science. What drives the solar wind and how does space weather impact the Earth? What controls the Sun’s 11-year activity cycle? How is the magnetic field generated inside the Sun? Solar Orbiter will unlock the secrets of how our star works by combining in situ and remote sensing observations. It will use Venus gravity assists to fly out of the ecliptic plane to study the Sun at high latitudes, and it will provide the first images of the Sun’s poles. Solar Orbiter will bring Europe to within the orbit of Mercury for the first time, to face the Sun and understand how our life-giving star influences the entire Solar System. Solar Orbiter is an ESA mission with strong NASA participation.

Sheffield Farms Company (Milk) Bottling Plant 1075 Webster Avenue 1914; annex: 1923 When the Sheffield Farms Milk Plant was completed in 1914, it was one of the most expensive and elaborate milk plants in the country, boasting one of the highest processing capacities in the dairy industry. Sheffield Farms, one of the largest and most innovative dairy companies of its time, hired Frank Rooke to design a series of four large-scale milk plants in The Bronx, Brooklyn and Manhattan (one of which survives as Columbia University’s Prentis Hall). Sheffield Farms was among the first to implement large-scale pasteurization, and pioneered the production of certified milk and introduced the world’s first paper-packaged milk container in 1930. The original building, designed in a modern French Renaissance style, was sold by the successor of Sheffield Farms in 1971 and demolished in 1991, leaving only the two-story ice and storage building standing. In homage to the site’s history, three glazed terra-cotta cow heads and milk bottles were salvaged from the plant and installed on a wall in the garden of the adjacent Webster House apartment building.

Subject: Metallic mosquito Geographic location of the bug: Ohio Time: 12:58 AM EDT Noticed this golden metallic looking mosquito with long legs on some Golden Rod Would love to know what type of insect this is. Thank You How you want your letter signed: Alane We believe this large male Mosquito is a Gallinipper, Psorophora ciliata, based on this BugGuide image. According to BugGuide: “The word gallinipper originated as a vernacular term in the southeastern US referring to ‘a large mosquito or other insect that has a painful bite or sting’ and has appeared in folk tales, traditional minstrel songs, and a blues song referencing a large mosquito with a ‘fearsome bite’ (McCann 2006)” and “one of the largest mosquitoes in the U.S. Not known to vector any mosquito-borne pathogens.” We are postdating your submission to go live to our site later in the month when our editorial staff is away for the holidays.

It has been another very busy week for us year ones. In maths, we have been learning about the part part whole diagram. In topic, we have been exploring static electricity and the dangers of electricity. And as you can guess we have been looking at stories in literacy. All week we have been planning and writing a story about a guinea pig. We did some role play to rehearse the story plot and began writing on Tuesday. We were very lucky to have a story teller come into see us. He taught us to use actions for the storytelling and then read us a story. We all enjoyed ourselves and had lots of fun, especially when we were listening in our pyjamas. Why not ask your child about their story? No comments have been left yet.

What are Troubled Assets? How Do Troubled Assets Work? The most famous examples of troubled assets are subprime mortgages. After the real estate market collapsed in 2007-2008, subprime mortgages lost much of their value and became almost impossible to sell. Because the market for subprime mortgages was illiquid, any owner of a subprime mortgages had to sell them at a fire-sale price if it was necessary to unload them. Banks, insurance companies and hedge funds had a relatively high number of these troubled assets on their balance sheets, and once their value plummeted, many of these firms found that they were insolvent. Why Do Troubled Assets Matter? The U.S. Department of the Treasury created the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) in 2009 to purchase or insure up to $700 billion of troubled real estate assets owned by banks and other private financial institutions. TARP mainly targeted a real estate derivative called a "collateralized debt obligation," or CDO, which had enjoyed active trading until widespread foreclosures caused the secondary market for CDOs to dry up. By purchasing their troubled assets, TARP allowed banks to stabilize their balance sheets, avoid further losses and begin lending again.

If you think humans are the most efficient at building cities and other intricate structures, you may have overlooked another species — ants. An abandoned colony of grass-cutter ants was located, and scientists decided to study it in depth. First they filled the empty chambers and passageways with concrete. Then they excavated around the concrete to expose the structure. What they found was amazing. First, the filling part took three days and ten tons of concrete. Second, clearing away the soil to expose the structure took weeks of digging. The result appeared to be the work of a master architect, but it was actually the collective instinct of thousands of insects (Star Trek fans think miniature Borg). The entire investigation was documented in Ants! Natures Secret Power. A summery can be found in a 3:15 video clip on (of course) YouTube, which can be accessed through “Watch what happens when scientists excavate a giant anthill” by Emily Howard (https://earthsky.org/earth/video-giant-ant-hill-excavation?11693). It’s a fascinating peek into nature, even if it’s a bit humbling for us humans.

Firecrackers are a small explosive device designed to produce a large amount of noise, especially in the form of a large bang. Firecrackers come individually and in strips with the strips ranging from 16 – 16,000 firecrackers. Individual firecrackers can range in size which determines how loud the bang will be. Larger individual firecrackers are often referred to as M-50’s, M-80’s, M-1000’s, and a variety of other names. When a strip is lit the firecrackers go in succession to produce multiple bangs. The time of strips can range from 3 seconds to 2 minutes. Many times, firecrackers come in half bricks, which include 40 strips of 16 firecrackers, and full bricks, which include 80 strips of 16 firecrackers. Other types of firecrackers include ladyfingers and jumping jacks.

a. A number of fat-soluble substances may be stored in the fat of the body. Vitamins A and D are fat-soluble. b. In addition, organophosphoric compounds of modern pesticides are often stored in human fat. Although these compounds may have been required in food production, they may also be ingested along with the food. c. The storage of such substances becomes particularly important when an individual goes on a crash diet. As fat is lost during such a diet, these fat-soluble substances are released into the general system. They may reach dangerous levels. In addition, the organs supported by the fat may become loose within the body and subject to injury. Was this article helpful?

Positive Behavior Intervention Support PBS is a systems approach to enhance the capacity of schools to educate all students, especially students with challenging social behaviors, by establishing clearly defined outcomes that relate to academic and social behavior. In addition, PBS is a broad range of systematic and individualized strategies for achieving important social and learning outcomes while preventing problem behavior. PBS is an integration of valued outcomes, science of human behavior, validated procedures, and systems change. It is a proactive systems approach to school-wide discipline designed to be responsive to current social and educational challenges. It is an instructional focus where emphasis is placed on: - Teaching behavioral expectations directly - Teaching social behaviors like academic skills - Maximizing academic engagement and success - Considering the influence of instructional support

MISSION & VISION STATEMENTS Having a clear mission statement is an important piece of the school district’s foundation and will serve as the framework for making decisions to establish a common direction of growth. The MCSD mission statement is based on the core belief that all students will be engaged and empowered to reach their highest academic potential and personal growth. To ensure all students and staff are learning at high levels. While the mission serves as a reminder of purpose, the vision statement is a goal or a common ambition. To develop a culture of collaboration and communication that supports continuous improvement for all. The mission and vision are constant, visible elements throughout the school district. They serve as reminders to our students, staff and community of who the MCSD is and where the district is heading in the future.

What are “surplus” hatchery salmon? “Surplus” hatchery salmon are fish that return to hatcheries in numbers greater than needed for broodstock. Ideally, recreational and commercial fishers in Washington should catch these fish. But that is not always possible, given the large variations in salmon returns and migration year by year. This year, for example, survival rates for hatchery fish are believed to have been greater because of improved ocean conditions. Stricter harvest regulations aimed at protecting wild salmon have also allowed larger numbers of hatchery fish to return uncaught. What happens to these surplus fish? All are put to good use, but how depends on the species, numbers returning, condition of the fish, the watershed in which the hatchery is located, available natural spawning areas above and below the hatchery, fishing regulations and the specific fishery management plan for each facility. The options include: Natural Spawning – In various locations, fish are allowed to pass by the hatchery and travel up

Chicken Pox (Varicella) Chickenpox is a very contagious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV). It causes a blister-like rash, itching, tiredness, and fever. The rash appears first on the stomach, back and face and can spread over the entire body causing between 250 and 500 itchy blisters. Chickenpox can be serious, especially in babies, adults, and people with weakened immune systems. The best way to prevent chickenpox is to get the chickenpox vaccine. What are the symptoms? - Itchy rash of blisters - Feeling tired |ADH Immunizations Varicella (Chicken Pox) Fact Sheet| |Communicable Disease Reporting Form| |Rules and Regulations|

Freedom of information refers to a citizen's right to access information that is held by the state. In many countries, this freedom is supported as a constitutional right. In the United States, the Freedom of Information Act allows for the disclosure of government documents and previously unreleased information that falls under the U.S. government's control. This act was amended in 1996 to include the Electronic Freedom of Information Act, which states that government agencies must make certain types of records electronically available to the public. This is designed to broaden access to government information. Freedom of information was established for transparency, government accountability, education and general public protection against mismanagement and corruption. More than 70 countries with government representation approved the original freedom of information legislation. Related human rights include freedom of expression, data protection (privacy), freedom of association and right to development.

Finishing Off Malaria JEDDAH – Malaria has long been one of the major killer diseases of our age. World Health Organization data show that as much as half of the world’s population is at risk. But roughly 90% of malaria cases and 92% of malaria deaths take place in just one region: Sub-Saharan Africa. Europe and North America live completely free of malaria. But children in Sub-Saharan Africa often suffer through multiple bouts of the disease before they reach the age of five. And children below the age of five account for 70% of malaria-related deaths. Pregnant women who contract the disease can suffer serious health complications. We hope you're enjoying Project Syndicate. To continue reading, subscribe now.

We don't know if probiotics are a good idea during antibiotic therapy. So eat plenty of fiber -- such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains -- instead. Probiotics are one of the recent darlings of the supplement world. But do they do anything? A small human study says yes. But what they do isn't good. The hygiene hypothesis has some new data. Researchers believe they have evidence that a lack of four bacteria genera early in life leads to a high risk of asthma. However, the study is small and the data is anything but conclusive. Does showering hurt your health? A Cambridge, MA company believes that taking a shower harms your microbiome, so it's developed a new probiotic spray to use in lieu of regular washing. One executive embraces this idea so strongly that he hasn't showered in over a decade. A new study published in JAMA Pediatrics on Jan. 13th that was conducted by a group from the department of pediatrics at Aldo Moro University of Bari in Italy is suggesting that colic in infants can be significantly reduced by the use of drops containing the probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri mixed with oil. But not all doctors agree.

Sometimes astronauts just wanna have fun! The video above was taken during the Apollo 17 mission on December 11, 1972, when astronauts Gene Cernan and Harrison “Jack” Schmitt went off in search of lunar samples during an EVA (short for Extra-Vehicular Activity.) Enjoying the 1/6 gravity, Jack felt the urge to break into song. And can you really blame him? Apollo 17 remains the most recent manned Moon landing and the most recent manned flight beyond low Earth orbit. It was the eleventh and final manned mission in the American Apollo space program. Launched at 12:33 a.m. EST on December 7, 1972, Apollo 17 was the sixth successful Apollo lunar landing. Jack Schmitt is the only scientist to have visited the Moon, as well as the only person to have walked on the Moon who was never a member of the U.S. Armed Forces. Here’s another EVA footage of Schmitt kicking a boulder downhill in the low lunar gravity. (Well he was a geologist!) Video credit: NASA

The Prizm OS has at least one heap, with a size of about 128 KB, located in the address range 0x881E0000 to 0x881FFFFF. The implementation appears to have some bugs; namely, one can't allocate one big buffer at the first try, and it appears to not manage free blocks properly, making fragmentation go too high at a certain point and basically making the heap useless. If the heap is used heavily, it may also get to a point (usually after freeing many buffers) where the OS reports there's more heap available than the total heap size - and usually the values are quite out of range, like 10 MB. There is some more discussion on this forum thread. The heap has the usual set of related syscalls. The stack can provide a bigger continuous RAM area than the heap (up to about 500 KiB, depending on static RAM requirements, versus about 128 KiB). This, plus the limitations described above, means that to get the most out of the memory available to add-ins, one has to use non-standard ("incorrect") practices such as preferably using the stack instead of the heap.

A vicious circle Insulin resistance means that insulin is no longer able to perform its function correctly in the body and is a state where the body cells are unable to take in glucose from the bloodstream efficiently. The consequence: Blood sugar levels will rise and remain high. To counteract the elevated glucose levels, the body will produce even more insulin. This long-term state of high insulin production can result in the insulin producing cells becoming exhausted. Insulin resistance is often an early predictor of Type 2 diabetes, and can be present years before diabetes is actually diagnosed. If detected, insulin resistance can be successfully treated through diet. Dietary intervention can allow hormone balance to normalise, which could help prevent Type 2 diabetes and its associated complications.

Note the four columns in the center of the image. This is where the Imperial Tribune (royal seating) was located — probably the re–erected columns supported a shade canopy. Four "wedge–shaped" portions (cunei) of the theater are visible—two on the right, the others on the left. On the left side of the orchestra is the area where the "god–fearers" inscription is located. Click Here to view this very important inscription. This theater was originally built in the fourth century B.C. It was restored and modified by the Romans and in its final form was able to accommodate 15,000 people.

If Democrats cared about good government, heck if Republicans did either – they would find the low viewership of the six presidential primary debates to date with alarm. What's driving the limited value of these presidential debates? The media. In the 2016 Election, the Electoral College worked exactly as it was designed. It balanced the interests of the large coastal, consumer-driven cities -- for example Los Angeles and New York -- with the interests of the smaller, producer cities and rural farming and industrial populations The Founding Fathers believed the job of electing a President was too important to be left to the people. Both under the original Constitution and the 12th Amendment, that task was delegated to states – not the citizenry. The Electoral College reflects the popular will of voters state by state -- not across state lines. The 2016 Election the depth of the divisions in this country. Those divisions are both human and institutional. Reform, renovation and rebirth are urgently needed. But before we turn our attention to the future – let's take a moment to summarize what went right and what went wrong on Election Day, November 8.

Carbohydrates have fallen out of favour with snack consumers in recent years due to rising levels of obesity and a greater awareness of the link between consumption of carbs and weight gain. However, changing the formula of snacks to reduce carbohydrate content while retaining the tastes and textures consumers are familiar with has proved difficult for manufacturers. Furthermore, many are unwilling to change equipment and processing methods to do so. ADM, who have applied for a patent for the process, has now developed a means of manufacturing high protein, soy-wheat crisps by blending the soy with at least one other protein such as wheat gluten. The mixture, which is at least 70 per cent protein, can then be fed into an extruder and dried to produce a number of products including crackers, cereal pieces, crisps, cookies or snack bars with a carbohydrate content of less than 5 per cent. Any type of soy protein and additional protein can be used in the process and vitamins may be added to create a more functional snackfood. Sweeteners and binding agents could also be used to produce nutritional bars and enrobed convenience snacks.

The two main factors that affect the final cost of a shipment are the weight and the volume occupied. In the field of transport and logistics the parameter to be used to calculate the rates is the weight / volume ratio, different for each type of transport (air, sea, road ). For example, in the field of road transportation the ratio of 1: 300 is considered as a reference, i.e. it is assumed that a cubic meter of goods weights 300 kg. Transport rates are calculated based on the greater of the total weight or actual weight of the total volume (called also “taxable”) of all the packages part of a shipment. The taxable weight is calculated by multiplying the volume of the package with the weight-volume ratio considered by the type of transportation

A concerning new study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry analyzed the concentrations of hormone-disrupting chemicals known as bisphenols in foodstuff from the United States and their implications for human exposure, revealing widespread contamination of the food supply.[i] While most educated consumers are now diligently limiting their exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) containing products, many are still unaware that an entire class of endocrine-disrupting bisphenol chemicals exist, with at least eight of sixteen in existence commonly used in production. These lesser known bisphenol analogues are being substituted for BPA by manufacturers of consumer goods, even within so-called “BPA free” products, in an attempt to both evade public relations fallout and increasingly stringent regulatory controls. The authors of the new study reiterate this concerning chicanery: As the concern over the safety of bisphenol A (BPA) continues to grow, this compound is gradually being replaced, in industrial applications, with compounds such as bisphenol F (BPF) and bisphenol S (BPS).

Revolutionary Russia 1891 1991 by Orlando Figes This vivid primer argues that the Russian Revolution only ended in 1991 ORLANDO FIGES’S bestselling A People’s Tragedy, first published nearly 20 years ago, is one of the most compelling of all accounts of the Russian Revolution. Figes ended his story in 1924 with the death of Lenin, which, he reckoned, seemed like a good idea at the time, as did many other historians of the subject. His latest work is a broad, sweeping history which — at half the length of A People’s Tragedy — argues that the “revolution” continued a further seven decades until the Soviet Union ceased to exist on Christmas Day, 1991. A primer intended for readers unfamiliar with the territory, it sparkles with ideas, vivid storytelling, poignant anecdotes and pithy phrases. The early chapters are especially good.

In the June, 1967 al-Naksah, or "the Setback," called the Six Day War in the West, Israel captured Sinai and the Gaza Strip from Egypt, East Jerusalem and West Bank from Jordan and the Golan Heights from Syria. Israel more than tripled the size of the area it controlled, from 8,000 to 26,000 square miles. According ot the UN, the conflict displaced another 500,000 Palestinians who fled to Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Jordan. Immediately after the war, the Israeli government annexed extensive areas to the north, east and south of West Jerusalem to the Municipality of Jerusalem and began a rapid process to build settlements in these areas. Its goal was to prevent any challenge to Israel's sovereignty over them and to impede initiatives leading to an Israeli withdrawal from these areas. Israel also annexed a strip of land parallel to the Green Line along a few kilometers north and south of the Latrun area. This strip of land had been known as "no man's land," because in 1948-1967 it was not subject to the control of either the Israeli or the Jordanian side

A large majority of Americans — 83 percent — say the U.S. should make an effort to reduce global warming, even if those efforts have economic costs, according to a new report from the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication. As many as 56 percent of Americans would be willing to pay an extra $100 each year if their power company would generate 20 percent of its electricity from renewable sources. Corporations and industry should be doing more to stave off climate change, according to 65 percent of people interviewed in a national survey, and 61 percent believe individual citizens should also be taking a more active role. Many of the survey’s findings are similar across Democratic and Republican party lines. Tax rebates for energy-efficient vehicles and solar panels are popular among people aligned with both parties, for example, as well as funding renewable energy research and regulating carbon dioxide as a pollutant. And people from both parties are generally supportive of ending all fossil fuel subsidies, although Democrats (67 percent) are more supportive of that policy than Republicans (52 percent).

From: Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships A Latin (!) word meaning "deep blue." Fr: t. 539 l. 110' b. 31'6" dph. 8' cpl. 180 a. 4 x 12-pdr., 20 x 32-pdr. car., 8 x 18-pdr. car. The first Cyane , a frigate, was built in 1796 at Frinsbury, England, for the Royal Navy. She was captured with HMS Levant 20 February 1815 by Constitution after a 40-minute night engagement off Madeira. With Constitution 's second lieutenant Hoffman as prize master, she successfully escaped recapture by a pursuing British squadron 12 March and arrived in America 10 April. She was adjudicated by a prize court and purchased by the Navy. Cyane cruised off the west coast of Africa from 1819-20 and in the West Indies from 1820-21 protecting the Liberian colony and suppressing piracy and the slave trade. She cruised in the Mediterranean 1824-25, and on the Brazil Station 1826-27. Laid up at Philadelphia Navy Yard, she sank in 1835 and was raised and broken up the following year.

The disadvantages of perfect competition are no scope for economies of scale, lack of product differentiation, reduced research and development expenditures, reduced incentive to develop new technology and the potential for market failure. Perfect competition is largely a theoretical concept. Perfect competition is an economic market structure characterized by numerous small firms that have no individual control over price, no barriers to entry or exit, perfect information among market participants and the absence of product differentiation. Markets for agricultural products and commodities are the closest real world examples of perfect competition. Because a perfectly competitive market is comprised of numerous small firms, economies of scale that benefit larger firms are nonexistent. A firm that grew much larger than its competitors would incur fixed costs that would make it financially unfeasible. Perfectly competitive markets also result in dull, homogeneous products because a seller has no incentive to differentiate his product, as everyone is selling the same thing: rice is rice, and iron is iron. Homogeneity reduces the incentive to invest in research and development, as a firm is unwilling to invest resources in activities that, because of perfect knowledge, will benefit the entire industry. Finally, absent government intervention, perfectly competitive markets are prone to market failure when impacted by externalities such as bad weather or supply shocks.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — One of Alaska’s largest and most active volcanoes is restless again, prompting scientists to issue an aviation advisory. Alaska Volcano Observatory scientists increased the threat level of Mount Veniaminof (VEN’-ee-ah-mean-off) from yellow to orange Tuesday. That color designation indicates that sudden explosions could send ash above 20,000 feet (6,100 meters) and threaten international air planes. The observatory’s coordinating scientist, David Fee, says the 8,225-foot (2,500-meter) volcano became active Saturday. Fee says small and sparse ash emissions seen rising to the 10,000-foot (3,050-meter) level prompted the threat level change. The volcano erupted for several months in 2013. Other recent eruptions occurred in 2005 and between 1993 and 1995. Veniaminof is 480 miles (772 kilometers) southwest of Anchorage on the Alaska Peninsula. Fee says Cleveland Volcano in the central Aleutian Islands is Alaska’s most active volcano, with the last explosion in May.

Farm Industrial farming is responsible for one third of the greenhouse gas emissions caused by civilization and 70 percent of fresh water consumption. Monocultures are contributing to a decline in the biodiversity that is essential for sustainable agriculture. According to the World Agricultural Report, 75 percent of all the world’s foods come today from only twelve plants and five species of animal. Factory farming of livestock and high-performance breeds place a high burden on the eco-system, as does the overfishing of the oceans. The World Agriculture Report comes to the conclusion that industrial agriculture as practiced today exploits the Earth’s natural resources to an unacceptable degree. Despite overproduction, billions of people are suffering either from hunger or malnourishment, while others are facing the health consequences of overeating. In recognition of this failure to feed the world, experts are calling for a new model of farming, one that is actually a time-tested tradition: small-scale, labor-intensive farming focusing on diversity as a guarantee for an environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable food supply – with resilient cultivation practices and local distribution systems.

New research suggests that Kate Middleton's baby will become more intelligent the longer she continues to breastfeed him. The Duchess of Cambridge, who is reportedly breastfeeding her newborn baby George, may be interested in a study by the journal JAMA Pediatrics, which claims the length of time a child is breastfed is directly related to its intelligence later in life. The study suggests that longer breastfeeding enables better receptive language at three years of age and enhanced verbal and non-verbal intelligence at seven. However, evidence of the extent to which breastfeeding helps in a child's development after infancy is less certain. "In summary, our results support a causal relationship of breastfeeding in infancy with receptive language at age 3 and with verbal and non-verbal IQ at school-age. These findings support national and international recommendations to promote exclusive breastfeeding through to the age of 6 months and continuation of breastfeeding through at least age 1 year," the authors of the report noted. "Breastfeeding an infant for the first year of life would be expected to increase his or her IQ by about four points or one-third of a standard deviation," Dimitri A. Christakis, a member of the research team added.

Site of Two Alpine Churches – D.U.P. Marker # 429 Alpine’s first settlers arrived in September 1850. By 1869, with a population of 208, it became necessary to erect a large, rock church on this site. It had a round, stained-glass window and a two-story vestry. A silver-toned bell was placed in the belfry. It was rung to tell the time of day, and for all occasions such as funerals, meetings, and fires. This building, known as “The Old Rock Church” was destroyed by fire on Sunday morning, October 21, 1928, as the bell tolled for the last time. Construction on this site for the “U-Shaped Brick Church” began in 1929. It was built during the “Great Depression”, with many sacrifices, dedicated by President Heber J. Grant, December 27, 1936, and demolished in 1968. Community activities were centered around these two churches for 96 years. Located in Legacy Park. Other markers placed by the Daughters of Utah Pioneers are listed at JacobBarlow.com/dup

The readings posted here are gathered from a wide array of researchers and contexts. They are not only informative but meant to facilitate reflection in classrooms. Ethnic diversity is of particular importance to African Nations; how do we co-exist within colonial borders that split ethnic communities into two, three or even four countries? What answers do we have towards preventing ethnic violence and genocides in the present day? What opportunity does pluralism as an ethic of respect for difference present? How do educators address vexing questions often hanging unanswered in class rooms such as; how can a national identity be cultivated and enhanced in a multi-ethnic situation? Is ethnicity in Africa a political and social construct? The readings invite educators to turn the ethnic diversity in their countries and classes into a resource.

May 14, 1881 Edward Augustine Walsh was born in Pennsylvania to a family of Irish immigrants. At age 12, he began working in the coal fields. He grew to be 6′.1″ and at 193 lbs became known at “Big Ed.” In 1902, urged on by a friend, he tried out for the Wilkes-Barre baseball team. He joined the Chicago White Sox in 1904, becoming one of the top pitchers in the American league. Walsh is known for his spitball, which is now illegal. After his career ended, he coached the White Sox for several years and then coached baseball at Notre Dame University. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1946. Walsh died on May 26, 1959. His son, Ed Walsh, also had a career with the White Sox.

Osteosarcoma or bone cancer is a common type of childhood cancer. Recently, mortality rates due to Osteosarcoma has gone down. Severe pain is the major symptom of this disease. The affected bone may face fracture easily. Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumor in youth. The average age at diagnosis is 15. Boys and girls have a similar incidence of this tumor until late adolescence, at which time boys are more commonly affected. The cause is not known. In some cases, osteosarcoma runs in families and at least one gene has been linked to increased risk. This gene is also associated with familial retinoblastoma, a cancer of the eye which occurs in children. It appears to be a defective tumor inhibitor gene.

Krefeld, also known as Crefeld until 1929, is a city in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is located northwest of Düsseldorf, its centre lying just a few kilometres to the west of the River Rhine; the borough of Uerdingen is situated directly on the Rhine. Krefeld is accessed by the autobahns A57 and the A44 . Krefeld is also called the "Velvet and Silk City". Krefelds residents speak Hochdeutsch, the standard German taught to all people in Germany. However, the native dialect is a Low German variety, sometimes locally called Krefelder Plattdeutsch, Krieewelsch Platt, Plattdeutsch, or sometimes simply Platt. The Uerdingen line isogloss, separating general dialectical areas in Germany and neighbouring Germanic-speaking countries, runs through and is named after Krefelds Uerdingen district, originally an independent municipality.

The group of 24 settlers from Licking County, Ohio, that John Green led to La Salle County, Illinois in 1829 were primarily two family groups, Green and Groves. On the Green side were John, his wife Barbara Grove, and their seven children; and Henry Brumbach, with his wife Elizabeth Pitzer, who was John Green’s niece, and their son, David. The Groves were David (Barbara’s brother) and his wife, Anna Houser, and their daughter Elizabeth; Rezin DeBolt and his wife, Emma Grove (Barbara’s sister), and their daughter Barbara; Joseph and Samuel Grove (Barbara’s brothers). These two families account for 20 of the 24 settlers. The other four were young unmarried men: Jacob DeBolt, Jacob Kite, Alexander McKey, and Harvey Shaver.

The Black Eye Galaxy (Messier 64), in the constellation Coma Berenices, is a spiral galaxy, visible with even a small telescope. It was discovered in 1779, by Edward Pigott (and independently a month later by Johann Elert Bode and in 1880 by Charles Messier). In a majority of galaxies, the stars all orbit in the same direction. Interestingly though, the gases in the outer region of M64 rotate in the opposite direction of the gases and stars within the inner region. To clarify the scale, the inner region has a radius of 3,000 light years, while the outer region extends an additional 40,000 light years. (That’s big, but take note that M64 is 19,000,000 light years from Earth.) The boundary between the two regions is believed to trigger a very productive birthing ground for many new stars. Astronomers believe that this pattern was caused when M64 absorbed a satellite galaxy brought in on a collision course, approximately 1 billion years, or more, ago. The darkened band that gives the galaxy it’s nickname is a dust feature that’s obscuring the light from the nucleus of the galaxy.

Which is the biggest number from nine, zero, seven, four, three? Why don’t we use a number line to solve this question? We start by drawing a line. Then, we’ll label our number line starting with zero: zero, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10. Now, we’ll place each of the numbers from our list on the number line. The first number is nine. We put a dot at the nine. The second number is zero and we add a dot on the zero. Our third number is the seven. We place a dot on the seven. Next up is the number four. We put a dot at the four and lastly the number three. So we put a dot on the number three. Our biggest number will be the number that’s farthest away from zero. That means we need to look and see which value is all the way on the right of our number line. The nine is the furthest value from zero on the right side. This means out of the numbers given, nine is the biggest number.

Laying Worker Honey Bees Workers will develop into laying workers in the presence of a failing queen or in a queen less colony. The laying worker will lay two or more eggs in a cell attaching the eggs onto the walls near the top of the cell. (check colonies thoroughly for the queen when laying worker egg laying activity is observed.) The solutions to the problem of a colony with laying workers are optional. The entire colony can be killed, the equipment cleaned and another colony installed. The colony may be divided and distributed into numerous other colonies by exchanging frames of bees for frames of bees and brood. Introduce a new caged queen into the colony formed in the exchange of brood and bees from other colonies. The laying worker colony will generally not accept a new queen. Check the brood combs for pollen stores and feed a pollen substitute if stores are low.

What is LOHAS Engineering? New perspectives in engineering are indispensable for sustaining an affluent society. These perspectives consider the challenges of the effective use of limited natural resources, which is essential for the future of our world. LOHAS (“Lifestyles Of Health And Sustainability”) offers a fresh insight into how we might meet these challenges. We call engineering which will enable us to live a LOHAS life, “LOHAS Engineering.” We promote “LOHAS Engineering” in order to study and develop an engineering approach that sustains such lifestyles. LOHAS engineering is an integrated academic platform for research and education adopted by the College of Engineering, Nihon University to contribute to the health and sustainability of our society. Utilizing the LOHAS engineering platform, we conduct various research and development projects to provide students with practical and sustainable development education. The concept of LOHAS containing the subsets of “Life Innovation” and “Green Innovation,” has been applied to our education and study since 2002 and continues to guide us in developing methods of engineering that aim to sustain health, society and the environment.

The children in Thompson Room 1 are excited about birds. The bird miniatures have traveled to every section of the room to build houses, swim, and eat. This week the children discussed what birds eat and what they use to build their nests. We have been exploring birdseed in the sensory table, collecting nesting materials, and gathering books about birds. The children in the afternoon class decided that the birds would eat the seeds from the sensory table, so earlier this week we filled the birdfeeder that sits outside our classroom window. The children also used the nesting materials they collected to make nests in the classroom. We are looking forward to watching the birds and visiting the nesting duck at the Gilliate Building.

Liquids consists of particles that are close together with no set arrangement, can flow easily, can take on the shape of any container it occupies and cannot be compressed easily. There are three main states of matter: solids, liquids and gases. Liquids are considered the second state, between solids and gases. Liquids are similar to solids in that their particles are packed tight enough that they cannot be compressed further. In contrast, gases have particles that have large amounts of space between them. Liquids differ from solids, because their particles are not fixed and rigid and can move freely past each other. Because liquids contain particles that can spread out and change shape depending on the container, they resemble gases.

Question 3: The 30 year contract is nearing the end. The farmer, Jim Shortz, had applied 100 tons (approximately 3 inches) of biosolids on top of the soil annually over the past 30 years. The organic matter content of this layer is greater than 25%. As compared to the soil adjacent to his farm where no application occurred, which horizon might now be present in Jim’s soil following biosolids application? To review this concept click on the links: Soil Genesis and Development Lesson 4.3 Looks Good! Given the fact that the horizon contains greater than 25% organic matter, this horizon would be considered an O horizon.

In order to maintain compatibility between newer and older technologies for example 802.11b (HR-DSSS) and 802.11g (ERP-OFDM) a mechanism was devised to allow the 802.11b device to understand the 802.11g device needed to transmit that doesn't significantly lower the overall data rate of the 802.11g client (ie force the 802.11g client to use legacy data rates.) The 802.11g device will send an RTS/CTS frame sequence (Request To Send/Clear To Send) that should be heard by all stations, it may also use only "CTS-to-self." This sequence will be understood by the 802.11b station that will read the duration field from the frame and set its NAV timer to hold off the medium until this timer expires. This "protects" the medium and allows the 802.11g to transmit unhindered. An AP will notify all clients within its service area that there are 802.11b devices present via a bit set in its beacons

I was stung by a scorpion the other day, and when telling friends about it, I was amazed how many said “I was bitten by a scorpion.” Scorpions have a pronounced stinger which they use to introduce venom. Their mouthparts aren’t involved at all. Yet somehow the act becomes “bitten.” I wonder why. That got me thinking about ants. Many species of ants lack a stinger, and in fact do bite to defend themselves. Others, like fire ants, hold on with their mandibles to pull up the skin and then inject their stings. In that case, I guess it would be bitten and stung. Other ants are more like their wasp relatives and certainly deliver a sting, but with no bite. For an absolutely wonderful photoessay about why only certain ants sting, see Alex Wild’s “Why do only some ants sting?” Why do you think people say “bitten” when they mean stung?

January 15, 1844 On this day, The University of Notre Dame received an official college charter from the state of Indiana. The Bishop of Vincennes offered land to Father Edward Sorin for the University in 1842 on the condition that he build a college within a two year period. The school began as a primary and secondary school, after acquiring two students, and was housed in the original log chapel. It began, as most in that time did, as an all-male institution with a female chapter called St. Mary’s College founded two years later. As the campus expanded, the Indiana General Assembly granted the school its college charter, official named University of Notre Dame du Lac.

Polymorphism is an important aspect in termites and ants. It helps to determine their function and what they are able to do. In both ants and termites, there are not that many differences in what the larger and smaller counterparts perform. Larger insects entities tend to perform guard duty or act as a defense. Smaller insects tend to do the rest of the work. And, obviously, there are differences between termites and ants. Large termites are simply called soldier termites. They are unable to perform small menial tasks due to their enlarged head and mandibles. However, large ants are able to do much more. Larger ants, known as supermajors, also help the worker ants with transporting large food products, either carrying it themselves or cutting up the prey into smaller pieces. In some species, such as the asian marauder ant, the supermajors are used as a form of transport for the workers to conserve energy.

The rapidly warming temperatures in high-latitude and alpine regions have the potential to alter the phenology of Arctic and alpine plants, affecting processes ranging from food webs to ecosystem trace gas fluxes. The International Tundra Experiment (ITEX) was initiated in 1990 to evaluate the effects of expected rapid changes in temperature on tundra plant phenology, growth and community changes using experimental warming. Here, we used the ITEX control data to test the phenological responses to background temperature variation across sites spanning latitudinal and moisture gradients. The dataset overall did not show an advance in phenology; instead, temperature variability during the years sampled and an absence of warming at some sites resulted in mixed responses. Phenological transitions of high Arctic plants clearly occurred at lower heat sum thresholds than those of low Arctic and alpine plants. However, sensitivity to temperature change was similar among plants from the different climate zones. Plants of different communities and growth forms differed for some phenological responses. Heat sums associated with flowering and greening appear to have increased over time. These results point to a complex suite of changes in plant communities and ecosystem function in high latitudes and elevations as the climate warms.

For parents of young children, colds are a fact of life. According to Cara Barone, M.D., a pediatrician at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation, a typical child has between seven to 10 colds (viral respiratory infections) a year for the first few years of life, especially if a child is in daycare or preschool. The good news is that although colds can create a lot of misery for children and parents, colds are rarely harmful and most of them resolve within two weeks. The typical cold starts with a fever and often a sore throat. This may last one to three days and is then followed by a runny nose, congestion and coughing. These symptoms worsen during the first week and then gradually improve over the second week. “Parents often have two pressing questions when their child has a cold,” Dr. Barone says. “They want to know how to ease their child’s discomfort and how to know when it is something more serious.”

June 10, 2014 Posted by on The gall bladder is the storage organ for bile salts, which are a cholesterol-based substance that help with the digestion and absorption of dietary fats. Gallstones are crystals or clumps of cholesterol that cause pain when the gall bladder contracts in response to food entering the intestines. A preliminary study conducted in southern Italy found that people who ate 400 calories or more of refined sugar each day were three times more likely to suffer from gallstones as those who ate no more than 260 calories of sugar. Those who consumed at least 600 calories from sugar were six times more likely to develop gallstones. Refined sugars are contained in foods such as cakes, cookies, soft drinks and table sugar. A 12-ounce can of soda contains 152 calories (all from sugar). Want to read more helpful tips like this? Join our monthly newsletter. It’s full of useful health tips with ZERO ads!

The pizza learning model: How children’s learning is like making a pizza. Most of us enjoy a traditional pizza every now and again. It’s often a treat at week’s end, that many of us relish as a welcome reprieve from daily kitchen duties. Most of us also have very specific topics, flavours and seasonings that we simply MUST have as part of our pizza, otherwise it’s simply not pizza! The Pizza Learning Model Explained Children’s learning is very similar to making a pizza. The delicious, welcomed end-product, is only as good as the sum of its parts. That is, the dance and weave and ultimate success of the end result, is often measured by the effectiveness of the whole. Miss one vital ingredient and it can be very disappointing. Children learn naturally and holistically. In fact, we are ALL hard-wired to learn in a multi-sensory way. Children learn by adding their environmental ‘ingredients’ together to make sense of their world. In an instructional environment like a classroom, children become (too) reliant on the teacher’s ingredients.

Astronomers are saying that we shouldn't be concerned about 2012 BX34, the asteroid they were surprised to detect on Wednesday. After all, it only passed by at less than a fifth of the distance to the moon, "one of the closest approaches ever recorded." Those are the words of Gareth Williams — associate director of the Minor Planet centre, which operates at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory — talking to BBC News. The asteroid caught astronomers by surprise. In a recent tweet, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Near Earth Object Office (NEOO) said that "asteroids this small are hard to spot and luckily they pose the least concern." Their goal is "to find the bigger ones." NEOO made the announcement in another tweet yesterday: Busy week. Asteroid 2012 BX34 will safely pass Earth on Jan. 27. Distance: 36,750 miles (59,044 km) or about .17 lunar distance. Later, they followed with: Asteroid 2012 BX34 is small, ~11 meters/37 ft diameter. It wouldn't get through our atmosphere intact even if it dared to try.

Are you interested in caring for the land? Protecting native habitats? Learning about native plants and animals? Keeping your local area beautiful? There’s a lot you can do Many of your local creeks and rivers are overrun with weeds. Riparian areas, or those areas alongside rivers, creeks and streams, are often the worst affected by weed infestation. Revegetating riparian areas not only helps our native flora and fauna, but can also; - Provide shelter for stock and crops - Prevent erosion - Control runoff - Help manage salinity and waterlogging This is why we are forming a community-based team of friendly locals who want to improve these catchment areas. How to get involved with the new Landcare group Introduce yourself by calling the Upper Hunter Local Landcare Coordinator, Nicholas Alexander, on 02 6549 3708.

According to the the 2013 American Values Survey (AVS) conducted by the Public Religion Research Institute: - Americans overall reported, on average, a social network of 3.4 people out of a maximum of seven people. Overall, people named in these networks are slightly more likely to be immediate family members (an average of 1.8 people) than non-immediate family members (an average of 1.5 people). - Among White Americans, 91 percent of people comprising their social networks are also White, while five percent are identified as some other race. Among Black Americans, 83 percent of people in their social networks are composed of people who are also Black, while eight percent are White and six percent are another race. - Among Hispanic Americans, 64 percent of the people who comprise their social networks are also Hispanic, 19 percent are White, and nine percent are another race.

An Edible Gem Gem-studded puffball, Lycoperdon perlatum, are also known as common puffball, warted puffball, or the devil's snuff-box. Puffballs are considered to be a good edible mushroom when young, when the gleba or inside is still homogeneous and white. Nutritional analysis of pufballs indicates that they are a good source of protein, carbohydrates, fats, and several micronutrients. In maturity, the top of the puffball sloughs away, revealing a pre-formed hole called the ostiole, through which the spores can escape. Mature puffballs release their powdery spores through the ostiole when they are compressed by touch or falling raindrops. A single puff like this can release over a million spores.

During the fall of 2012, the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests and regional land conservation groups developed a new land protection blueprint for the Lakes Region of New Hampshire. Working together, the group developed a science-driven, consensus land conservation plan that integrates the best-available natural resource data with expert judgment to prioritize land protection that aims to protect water quality in the region by prioritizing the most critical forests and shorefront lands to conserve over the next decade. The Lakes Region comprises about 20% of New Hampshire’s land area but contains roughly 50% of the state’s surface water. It is also the state’s fastest-growing region in terms of population and land development. The plan was developed by the Forest Society and its partners strictly as a guide for voluntary conservation by landowners interested in protecting their land. Mount Major in Alton, NH.

According to Worldometers, the world's population at the time of this writing is a staggering 7,418,500,693. That's 7.4 billion people and the number is increasing every second as birth rate far exceeds death rate. This has many people wondering if and when our population will exceed the limits of earth. Just how many people can the earth really hold? Many scientists think Earth has a maximum carrying capacity of 9 billion to 10 billion people. But don't be fooled by this reassuring number. Earth's resources are finite and they're decreasing steadily at the rate of human consumption. This means the availability of freshwater and food sources will be under severe constraints with the rise in populations. And if the entire population became vegetarian, people would consume so much grains and produce there would be little to nothing left to support livestock. So while the 10 billion mark seems safe and far away, the reality is that our way of life at that point will not likely for the better.

This past Wednesday, June 21st, was the longest day of 2011. Not literally, of course, for June 21st did not contain any more than the usual twenty-four hours allotted to that segment of time referred to as “day.” And yet, because more of those hours occurred while the sun was “up” than any other day of the year, we in the western hemisphere label it the “longest day.” Australianson the other hand, recognize it as the shortest. For today’s prompt, consider what conditions warrant the superlative label of “longest” and juxtapose it with the concept that shortest exists simultaneously with longest. For example, sometimes time drags and brief minutes seem to go on for days as seconds stretch into hours. Recall a moment in your life which seemed to last forever – perhaps due to agony, impatience or bliss. Maybe your memory is of the longest car ride, longest parental lecture, longest wait, longest kiss…or the longest 10 seconds of your life. Maybe it is of the longest poem. Let the image act as inspiration to craft a poem and share it in the comments section below. Most of all, have fun!

He served as a General in the Union Army during the American Civil War (1861–65) for which he received recognition for his outstanding command of military strategy as well as criticism for the harshness of the "scorched earth" policies that he implemented in conducting total war against the Confederate States. When Grant assumed the U. Grant in 1862 and 1863 during the campaigns that led to the fall of the Confederate stronghold of Vicksburg on the Mississippi River and culminated with the routing of the Confederate armies in the state of Tennessee. Sherman's subsequent march through Georgia and the Carolinas further undermined the Confederacy's ability to continue fighting. S. Military historian B.

|households per acre| Residential density, as calculated here, represents household density of residential areas, in contrast to population density on total land area. By the same methods utilized for the H+T Index, this calculator retrieves residential density estimates for any address in the country. Using the 2010 U.S. Census Summary File 1, total households are obtained at the block level. Blocks are then selected on the criteria that gross density (households per land acre) must be greater than one. From these selected blocks, both households and land acres are aggregated to the block group level, at which level residential density is calculated. This address-level tool for our residential density calculation was developed by CNT with support from Enterprise.

This monumental work was the first full scale attempt to analyse the reciprocal relations of science and society throughout history, from the perfection of the flint hand axe to the hydrogen bomb. In this remarkable study Bernal illustrates the impetus given to (and the limitations placed upon) discovery and inventions by pastoral, agricultural, feudal, capitalist and socialist systems, and conversely the ways in which science has altered economic, social, and political beliefs and practices.

Get the kids to start with our guided location worksheet, which asks children to find Hong Kong on a simplified, labelled map of Asia. Then move on to the much more challenging blank worksheet!

Electric Vehicle Charging Station An electric vehicle charging station, also called EV charging station, electric recharging point, charging point and EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment), is an element in an infrastructure that supplies electric energy for the recharging of plug-in electric vehicles, including all-electric cars, neighborhood electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids. As plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and battery electric vehicle ownership is expanding, there is a growing need for widely distributed publicly accessible charging stations, some of which support faster charging at higher voltages and currents than are available from domestic supplies. Many charging stations are on-street facilities provided by electric utility companies, mobile charging stations have been recently introduced. Some of these special charging stations provide one or a range of heavy duty or special connectors and/or charging without a physical connection using parking places equipped with inductive charging mats.
