Market competition between sellers of products and services for buyer’s money, and between buyers for seller’s goods and services results in cooperation between buyers and sellers when a trade is made. It is important to note that the distinction between seller and buyer is an issue of focus, as individuals are buyers are sellers, and all sellers are buyers. They are two sides, so to speak, of the same coin. Sellers trade (sell) products (supply) for money. That same seller will later use the money acquired to buy products as a buyer. Buyers trade (buy) products (demand) with money. That same buyer previously acquired money by selling products and services as a seller.* The idea that one’s supply constitutes one’s demand is known as Say’s Law of Markets, i.e., that one pays for one’s products with the products one has produced. One can also obtain the money from someone else (who produced the products and services) either by voluntary charity or by coerced, involuntary transfer payments (taxation and theft).

Abolitionism is a bioethical school and movement which proposes the use of biotechnology to maximize happiness and minimize suffering while working towards the abolition of involuntary suffering. We are a fundamentally empathic species . . . Social scientists are reexamining human history from an empathic lens and, in the process, discovering previously hidden strands of the human narrative which suggests that human evolution is measured not only by the expansion of power over nature, but also by the intensification and extension of empathy to more diverse others across broader temporal and spatial domains. The Secret History of Dreaming by Robert Moss After escaping from slavery in 1849, Harriet Tubman helped organize the Underground Railroad and personally led 300 slaves to freedom. Few history books note that she relied on her dreams to provide specific information about where to find safe houses, helpers, and passages through dangerous territory.

To solve I = prt, multiply the amount of money borrowed by the interest rate and length of time. These are designated by the variables p for the principal or the amount of money borrowed, r for the interest rate and t for the length of time; I = prt is the formula for simple interest. The fundamentals behind simple interest assume that the same amount of interest is paid every year on a debt, until the debt is paid off. For example, Stephen has a car loan of $30,000 for 5 years with a 3 percent interest rate. Using the formula for simple interest, the equation appears as I = 30,000 x .03 x 5. It is important to remember to designate the percentage as a decimal. In this case, 3 percent is represented as .03. The answer to the above equation is 4,500. This means that Stephen will pay $4,500 in simple interest over the course of 5 years. Another example of the formula for simple interest is a $2,000 loan with a 10 percent interest rate over the course of 7 years. This would be expressed as I = 2,000 x .10 x 7, which equals an amount of $1,400 in simple interest.

Q. What is a literature review? Literature reviews, or review articles, are an attempt by one or more writers to sum up the current state of the research on a particular topic. Ideally, the writer searches for everything relevant to the topic, and then sorts it all out into a coherent view of the “state of the art” as it now stands. Literature reviews will teach you about:: - the main people working in a field - recent major advances and discoveries - significant gaps in the research - current debates - ideas of where research might go next Review articles are virtual gold mines if you want to find out what the key articles are for a given topic. If you read and thoroughly digest a good literature review, you should be able to “talk the talk” about a given topic. Unlike research articles, review articles are good places to get a basic idea about a topic. In most databases and indexes, you can limit your search to include only review articles. Some databases might use the term "literature review," but it's the same thing.

City of Quebec Quebec City, Canada One of four historic districts More than a simple library, the Charlesbourg Library is part of a revitalization plan for one of Quebec City's four historic districts. At the centre of a Renaissance-inspired plan designed by Jesuits in 1637, Lemay’s design for the library is sensitive to its heritage context while employing contemporary construction techniques. It involves the construction of a major addition to the existing public library adjacent to historic Saint-Charles-Borromée Church. The library was designed as a democratic space offering a unique visitor experience. With its multipurpose spaces and cutting-edge technology, it attracts all generations. Part building and part landscape, the library is woven into its site with a field of wild grasses running over the roof. This green roof, one of the largest in Canada, was designed to be an accessible public park, perfect for reading and relaxing in the company of book lovers.

Assessment FOR Learning Assessment FOR learning is more commonly known as formative & diagnostic assessments. Assessment FOR learning is the use of a task or an activity for the purpose of determining student progress during a unit or block of instruction. Teachers are now afforded the chance to adjust classroom instruction based upon the needs of the students. Similarly, students are provided valuable feedback on their own learning. Common Assessment for Writing (Hochman) Final Performance Tasks per unit of study Assessment AS Learning Assessment AS learning is the use of a task or an activity to allow students the opportunity to use assessment to further their own learning. Self and peer assessments allow students to reflect on their own learning and identify areas of strength and need. These tasks offer students the chance to set their own personal goals and advocate for their own learning. Self-Assessments for Students Assessment OF Learning Assessment OF learning measures the students’ achievement in relation to a clearly defined set of standards. These assessments are given after learning is supposed to occur. They are used to report to the community the academic proficiency of students in both the community and the state. These are often known as summative assessments.

Māori are New Zealand’s indigenous peoples colonised by Pākehā (the Māori name given to the descendants of early British settlers), who arrived from the late eighteenth century. Just over 115 years later, the Māori population is diverse and dynamic. In this chapter, we (Houkamau a self-identified Māori, and Sibley a Pākehā) describe the development of our multidimensional model of Māori identity and cultural engagement (MMM-ICE) and present our work as a case study of how qualitative and quantitative methods may be integrated to expand understandings of Māori diversity. We detail our model and measure of Māori identity, its origin and epistemology, and how we developed the scale using mixed methods, both qualitative and quantitative. We offer our work as an example of how bi-cultural collaborators may bridge the gap between Māori views of identity and the psychological imperative for systematic data collection and analysis.

This particular tessellation is full of angles measuring 20 degrees, 40 degrees, and other angles which are not constructable using the traditional rules of Euclidean constructions. This is because this tessellation is based on a matrix which includes regular enneagons. Each pair is a different color. Because these decagons intersect in space, but do not meet at edges, they do not form a true polyhedron. They are merely a symmetrical configuration of twelve decagons in space, surrounding a central point. I made this out a “true polyhedron” by hiding all the other faces from view. Before the hiding and recoloring of faces, this looked this way (you can click on it to enlarge it): I used Stella 4d to make these images, and you can find that program at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.

Sustainable, renewable and recyclable - Cork. Cork is harvested once every nine years without felling trees. Cork oak forests are the lungs of the environment, the economy and the society of Mediterranean countries. In Portugal, where LIGA's cork is sourced from, is the largest cork oak forest area in the world, the cork oak is the national tree and has been protected by law since the 13th century. A growing awareness of the value of the ecosystem of the cork oak forest has led to important initiatives in reforestation and the systematisation of good practices. It is a way of ensuring the future as two new cork oaks are planted for each old cork oak. See how the cork is harvested without harming the Cork Oak Trees... You do not have a link list with a handle set to corkstory, or you do and it's empty. Go ahead and create a link list called The Cork Story on your Navigation page and populate that link list with links that point to collections, to see collections listed here.

A new global alliance formed to phase out coal-fired power, the Powering Past Coal Alliance, has officially been launched at COP23 Summit in Bonn this week. Several countries have signed up, including the UK, Canada, Mexico, France, Finland, New Zealand, Italy, and Denmark. The goal is to get 50 signatures by next year. Right now, there are already 27. “The Powering Past Coal Alliance will signal to the world that the time of coal has passed. The UK is committed to completely phasing out unabated coal-fire power generation no later than 2025 and we hope to inspire others to follow suit,” UK climate change and industry minister Claire Perry said.BusinessGreen Why not share this article?

Betel nut sets were usually equipped with several implements to help prepare a betel quid. A set generally comprises a receptacle for holding betel leaves, an areca nut pounder, boxes for betel and tobacco, pots for storing 'gambier' (lime) such as this example, and a piece of 'songket' (gold brocade cloth) for wrapping other ingredients such as cloves. A betel quid consists of a thin layer of slaked lime, thin shavings of areca nut and a betel leaf.Betel chewing was practised throughout the Malay Archipelago for centuries, and was common to all social classes. The practice remained popular until the mid 20th century. People chewed betel for its mildly narcotic effects and as a social activity. Betel chewing played a vital part in every important ceremony – from weddings to funerals.

The total area of the islands is about three times the size of Texas. Over 251 million people live in Indonesia, making it the fourth most populous country. Jakarta is the capital. Idea: Indonesia grows cassava. Children could find out more about this crop. Krakatoa erupted in 1883, creating one of the biggest volcanic eruptions known. Located near Indonesia, the volcano had been dormant for over 200 years. Five cubic miles of the mountain were blown into the atmosphere, changing weather for years. Over 36,000 people died from the volcano or from the ensuing tidal waves. Most of the island was destroyed. Children could learn more at: Krakatoa.

The Cedars of God is one of the last vestiges of the extensive forests of the Lebanon cedar, that once thrived across Mount Lebanon in ancient times. Their timber was exploited by the Phoenicians, Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Romans, Israelites and Turks. The wood was prized by Egyptians for shipbuilding. King Solomon used the southern cedar forests to build his famous cedar-paneled royal home as well as the first temple in Jerusalem. In the Cedars of God, there is a small forest of about 400 cedar trees in the mountains of northern Lebanon. They are among the last survivors of the extensive forests of the Cedars of Lebanon that thrived in this region in ancient times. Located at about 2,300 meters above sea level, they look up to Jabal Makmel that tower over the Qadisha Valley. Majority of trees are more than one hundred years old with few exceptions which have reached one thousand years. Bring plenty of water, and be careful for traffic and the sometimes narrow roads when traveling, but other than that there should be nothing to be afraid of if you go to visit the cedars!

When it comes to verb forms, it's always the same problem: lack of speed. You understand the tense, and when you write, you can eventually put it together. But when you speak, you stumble, hesitate, have to stop to think and "write it" in your head... It's very frustrating. These French Verb Drills are designed to help you memorize the verb forms, and the way they are pronounced in French today. The aim is not to explain the tenses, nor to help you figure out how to construct them, but to help you gain speed when it comes to saying that verb form. Make sure you first listen to the intro to make the best use of these verb drills. Transcripts, additionnal drills, and more audio material are available at FrenchToday.com (by the author of LearnFrenchInBoston.com).

The origin of the swing can be traced back to a few.The ancient times 100,000 years ago. At that time, our ancestors needed to pick up wild fruits or hunt wild beasts in order to make a living. In climbing and running, they often grab the stout vines, relying on the swinging of the rattan, the tree or the gully, which is the most primitive form of the swing. As for the swings where the ropes were hung on the wooden frame and the pedals were lowered, they were in the north of China during the Spring and Autumn Period. In the "Arts and Literatures Collection", there is a record of "the northern foothills, the cold food is a swing for the day". At that time, the ropes of the swings were solid, and they were usually made of animal skins. Therefore, the words "qi" are used as the sideways.

A study by d'Ydewalle (1991) indicated that all readers (including illiterate, emergent, and struggling readers) will (both consciously and unconsciously) track available text. In other words, the student’s eyes will register the text, even if the student is not intentionally trying to read the captioning. d'Ydewalle used cameras to track and record eye focus during video activities with and without captioning-- the patterns are similar to models presented below. This is why 'hard' subtitling is so important. Students subconciously track the text on screen ---- reading practice becomes automatic. The problem is that the subtitling needs to be on media that students will view and view repeatedly --MUSIC VIDEO!

Persons deprived of their liberty France’s LOAC Summary Note (1992) provides: “Captured combatants shall be treated humanely.” France’s LOAC Teaching Note (2000) provides: “Every captured combatant … has the right to respect for his dignity. He shall be treated humanely.” France’s LOAC Manual (2001) provides: “Prisoners of war must be spared and treated with humanity … They shall be protected from acts of violence, insults and intimidation.” France’s Code of Defence (2004), as amended in 2008, states: “Combatants must respect and treat with humanity all persons protected by the applicable international conventions … Prisoners of war … are protected persons”.

Article 4 of EU Regulation 1380/2013 on the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) define ‘technical measure’ as “a measure that regulates the composition of catches by species and size and the impacts on components of the ecosystems resulting from fishing activities by establishing conditions for the use and structure of fishing gear and restrictions on access to fishing areas.” Thus, these are a set of rules that govern where, when and how fishing can take place. Most of the fisheries management systems in place worldwide employ technical measures based on control of inputs and outputs. For Europe, the European Commission is reforming the CFP legislative framework and has updated and amended the rules for technical measures (EU Regulation 2019/1241). This is particularly important for management systems in the European parts of the Mediterranean, where input measures play a major role, in contrast to management systems in the North East Atlantic, which uses mainly output measures (catch quota). We discuss here the main advantages and disadvantages of these instruments with a particular focus on the European part of the Mediterranean Sea, our main aim being to foster a debate on the best measures for fisheries management.

Birchanger is a small ancient village in northeast Essex on the boundary of Bishop's Stortford in Hertfordshire. The village is based around a hill, which is part of the East Anglian Heights (the eastern end of the Chilterns). At the foot of the hill is the river Stort, which is a tributary of the River Lea which in turn is a tributary of the River Thames. The village was recorded in the 1086 Domesday book with the name Bilchangra. The village is much earlier than this date as can be seen from St Mary's Church, parts of which date back to Saxon times. The position of the church and the village had an important situation overlooking the Stort and its valley. In the 12th Century the village name in ancient british was recorded as "Bircehangra" which means "Wooded slope growing with Birch trees". This name is still appropriate today as parts of Birchanger Wood still exist (and are protected) which still contain many Birch trees. This CD is a brief potted history and photograph archive of our village. By clicking here you can explore some of the history and photographs of our village.

Most millennials want to use their talents to give back to their communities. With some IT-skills, for instance, it is possible to impact people’s lives in more ways than you would ever have imagined. That said, here are some ways techies can use their skills for a good cause. Learn a New Skill Part of giving back to the community involves learning. Some organizations bring people together, teach them technical skills, and offer them a platform to use their knowledge to benefit non-profits. Whatever technical skill you learn, you can always use it for the betterment of those around you. Join a Community Finding a community or team of other individuals who want to give back to the community is a good place to start. Working around the right people will certainly help you leave a better impact. The good thing about joining a community of techies is that you are matched with what you are passionate about. Attend a Hackathon Some organizations are passionate about using technology to help build a better world. Hackathons, in particular, are gatherings of techies that are designed to come up with technologies aimed at helping social ventures and non-profits.

The primary purpose of this training is to provide an introductory overview of Gentle Teaching; its founder, history, and philosophical foundations. Additionally, the facilitator will teach both the central purpose and basic principles of Gentle Teaching, including: the Four Pillars: to feel safe, to feel valued (loved), to become more loving and to become more engaged. Within this training the learner will be introduced to the Four Tools of Gentle Teaching: our hands, our eyes, our words and our presence. 1.Establishing the perspective that a caregivers/teachers role is critical and requires a deep commitment to personal and social change. 2.Gentle Teaching must begin with us: we must be intentional with our warmth toward others, our willingness to give without any expectation of receiving anything in return, and our intense desire to form feelings of companionship and community with those who are pushed to the edge of society.

Artifact of the week Bathtub for mikveh 22. April 2020 Jewish museum Trondheim will in the following weeks present photographs and artifacts from the museum’s collection. We temporarily call this column “Artifact of the week”. When the schools open and the museum is back to normal, we will go back to our usual “Artifact of the month”.This week we share a photograph of one of the museum’s two wooden bathtubs. They were made in 1933 when the building, which also holds the synagogue, opened a mikveh in the basement. A mikveh is a Jewish ritual bath. Traditionally the bath is used in preparation of shabbat, before a marriage is held or if you are converting to Judaism. You bade in the mikveh to achieve ritual purity, and these bathtubs were used to clean oneself before one entered the mikveh.The bathtubs are no longer in use. Today they are part of the museum’s exhibition about the Jewish life in Trondheim.

The most common of table relationships is the one-to-many relationship, which is created by adding the primary key (one or more fields) from one table into a second table that will hold many occurrences of said primary key. I asked a friend of mine who's a native English speaker whether everything was okay with the grammar in this sentence and he said that the sentence sounded absolutely fine to him as it was written. He explained that said something is a common phrase with no article. But I then looked it up in my dictionary and showed him the following example that I found there: acting in pursuance of the said agreement. To which he replied that because you already have the primary key mentioned before, you don't need to use the article again. Do you think this is correct logic? Would you please give me some more examples with that structure?

For the first time ever, Doctors have been able to treat a genetic disease before birth. /READ MORE// Fetus Has DNA Sequenced People born with a abnormality known as XLHED lack a protein crucial for the development of sweat glands. That can lead them to overheat to a dangerous degree. In a study in April, Doctors from Germany, the United States and Switzerland were able to flag three fetuses with the inherited disorder. By injecting the fetuses with the missing protein directly into the amniotic sac at the right time, the team was able to restore the fetus’s ability to sweat in all three cases.

The Ross Heart Failure Classification was developed to provide a global assessment of heart failure severity in infants, and has subsequently been modified to apply to all pediatric ages. The modified Ross Classification incorporates feeding difficulties, growth problems, and symptoms of exercise intolerance into a numeric score comparable with the NYHA classification for adults. Continue reading → The SOFA system was created in a consensus meeting of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine in 1994 and further revised in 1996. The SOFA is a six-organ dysfunction/failure score measuring multiple organ failure daily. Each organ is graded from 0 (normal) to 4 (the most abnormal), providing a daily score of 0 to 24 points. The objective in the development of the SOFA was to create a simple, reliable, and continuous score easily obtained in every institution. The New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Classification provides a simple way of classifying heart disease (originally cardiac failure), useful for preoperative assessment. It places patients in one of four categories, based on how much they are limited during physical activity:

An acoustic camera is an imaging device used to locate sound sources and to characterize them. It is constructed of an array of microphones that gather information and project that on an image. The array is on a portable disk that is connected to a laptop. Videos and still photos can be generated. There is a feature to block the noise from a particular spot, so that you can see the noise contribution from other areas. The output shows the spectrum of the noise (octave, third octave, narrow band) and the level. The acoustic camera can be aimed at the ceiling, walls and floor to measure the amount of noise coming from these reflected paths. With the acoustic camera, we could identify the noise sources and the contribution from various reflective paths. We could also determine the noise level from secondary and tertiary sources. Noise predictions for the implementation of various noise mitigation options was easy. The third octave data for the various noise paths made selecting treatments easier as well. An acoustic camera can be very useful for many noise source identification and treatment projects.

The True Location of Ancient Biblical Jerusalem The True Location of ancient Biblical Jerusalem was only rediscovered 150 years ago. Since then the ancient city has been shaking off her dust (Isaiah 52:2) through the ongoing archaeological excavations at the City of David National Park. The rediscovery of the ancient city is not only proof of the Bible's validity but brings with it a tremendous responsibility. It is evident that the earthly Jerusalem plays a pivotal part in G-d's redemption plan. Therefore it is up to every person that is serious about Biblical prophecy fulfilment and passionate about Zion to make sure they align themselves physically and spiritually and to be ever mindful of the most precious place in G-d's heart.

Dartmouth College v. Woodward (1819) Dartmouth College had been granted a charter by the Crown during the colonial period. After independence, the State of New Hampshire created a new board of trustees who attempted to take control of the college. The secretary and treasurer of the college would not turn over to the new board of trustees the college’s papers and seal, and the board sued. In his 1819 decision, Chief Justice John Marshall made three major points. First, he made clear that the college was a private institution, not a public one, thus limiting the legislature’s control over it. Second, he held that public charters were contracts within the meaning of the Constitution. His final point was that the state, by its creation of a new board of trustees in violation of the old charter, had enacted a law “impairing the obligation of contracts” in violation of Article I, Section 10, of the Constitution—the Contract Clause.

The rich history of the English language spans centuries, from Beowulf to Virginia Woolf and beyond. But how often do we take the time to consider the origins of the language we speak? Have you ever considered why some expressions have more formal or informal overtones of meaning? What is the difference between “a hearty welcome” and “a cordial reception”? These words ultimately reveal how the English language was broadened by centuries of invasions, each one bringing new words and cultural influence to the language. Words like beer and champagne, so common to us now, are examples of the influences that have shaped the English language. And while you might feel horrified at the idea of today’s slang becoming so ingrained into modern language, consider how a word like weird, Anglo-Saxon in origin, continues to be used in the 21st century. If you are interested in learning more, check out this quick introduction on the subject. Enjoy!

What are human rights? Expand People with Down syndrome have the same human rights as everyone else. Human rights are the basic rights and freedoms that belong to every person in the world, from birth until death. They apply regardless of where you are from, what you believe or how you choose to live your life. They can never be taken away, although they can sometimes be restricted – for example if a person breaks the law, or in the interests of national security. These basic rights are based on shared values like dignity, fairness, equality, respect and independence. These values are defined and protected by law. The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) is an international legal agreement. It exists to protect and promote the human rights of people with disabilities.

On a warm July night, Washington State homesteader, Catherine Northrup was shot at close range after answering a knock at her cabin door. During the Civil War, she survived outlaw guerrilla warfare near her childhood home. After crossing the Oregon Trail, Catherine lived through a particularly brutal last assault on her home by the Nez Perce as they attempted to push settlers back during the Nez Perce War. At the end of the brutality, she married. The new couple in letters to family literally called their homestead, “Paradise”. The just planted orchard was productive. The railroad was being built nearby, so their produce would easily get to market. Each of them had family that settled not a mile from their new cabin. So why was Catherine alone that night? Who was the armed man standing in front of her as she opened the door? A Tree Missing from the Orchard (a working book title) is an historical nonfiction biography about Catherine Northrup, fully researched by Arlene, and is the first to be written.

Foraging behaviour of Apis mellifera on Trianthema portulacastrum Jasvir Singh Dalio One of the major problems in beekeeping is presence of floral dearth periods. So it is desirable to study subsistence flora during these periods. A study was conducted on foraging behaviour of Apis mellifera on Trianthema portulacastrum, which is a very common weed of summer season under Punjab conditions. Foraging activity took place during morning (0730 to 1020 hours) time only and reached a peak at 0830 to 0850 hours. Average abundance of bees on this weed was 5.89 bees/m²/min, while maximum foraging activity was noted to be 13 bees /m² / min from 0830 to 0840 hours. Mean foraging frequency was 18.22 flowers/min. Maximum number of flowers visited / min. was 25 (at 0820 to 0830 hours). Average pollen load observed was 2 mg/ bee. This weed is minor source but provide subsistence forage and serve an important purpose of sustaining bee colonies at critical time of floral scarcity.

Vol 2, No 1 (2020): Diversity and Equal Opportunity The diversity in educational settings is interpreted as the heterogeneity of students in terms of sex, social origin, ethnicity, and religion. Educational research is consistent focusing on certain groups if they are under represented on an educational level and institution compared to their social significance. The following risk groups have also been identified in several papers: students from low-status families, children from single parent families, those who belong to an ethnic or religious minority, and students with special needs. Not only the learning and financial difficulties but the lack of integration threatens them. An ongoing challenge for educational research is to explore not only the possibility of equality of educational opportunity but also the way in which the education system can make them effective. The studies in this issue present current research in the field of diversity and equal opportunities.

We consume more natural resources than the earth can provide. This global overuse, driven by a short-term consumerist mindset, leads to natural resource depletion, such as declining soil fertility and a loss of biodiversity, and decreased resilience in the supply chains of food and other consumer products. In the coming years, agriculture will face an unprecedented confluence of pressures, including a substantial increase in the global population, intensifying need and competition for increasingly scarce land and water, and the impact of climate change. This will affect all life. These challenges call for a much-needed transition to sustainable production and consumption. This urgency is also anchored in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); if the global population reaches 9.6 billion by 2050, the equivalent of almost three planets will be required to sustain current lifestyles. Read our vision paper (.pdf) to learn more about our position on food and agriculture systems.

Dance, in its various forms, including traditional ones, accompanies Greek lives to an astonishing degree. The Greeks find a lot of opportunities to dance, regardless of their age or social status. Dance events are popular especially during family celebrations such as weddings and on annual holidays, such as village feasts or fairs (panigyria) and in carnival. Though traditional dance has lost most of its ritual and some of social functions, dancing is still an important recreational and bonding activity. We gathered hundreds of testimonies describing and depicting dances with objects and their “whereabouts” in time and space, as objects are not only seen in dance (defined strictly as structured body movement). They play important part during actions preceding, accompanying and intermingling with dance, such as making festive preparations or marching. In fact, objects in dance and around it seem much more common than it is widely thought. From the Prologue

Carbon nanomaterials have become increasingly important for many applications, including sensors, electronics, biomedical materials and functional composites. Currently their production is based on hydrocarbons or graphite and requires very high temperatures. Here we present a method for the synthesis of carbon nanomaterials from carbon dioxide. Unlike previously described methods, our synthesis method works near room temperature. Carbon dioxide is irradiated at its critical point, producing spherical carbon nanoparticles even without the use of a catalyst. We examine the influence of irradiation parameters and different metals and catalysts on the nanocarbon production. Together with analysis of the fluid phase, this allows us to draw some conclusions on the carbon dioxide dissociation mechanism. ASJC Scopus subject areas - Environmental Chemistry

The Berlin Wall came down on November 9, 1989. People who had previously been separated for decades by a boundary wall were hugging each other in Germany and celebrating freedom and the beginning of a new era together. It was a historic night for Germany and for the whole world. How did Daimler employees experience this night and the subsequent reunification of the two Germanys? What did the separation and reunification of the two Germanys mean for these individuals? In line with the theme of “history viewed from different perspectives,” Daimler employees get a chance to speak and tell their personal stories about love transcending borders, new hopes, difficult new beginnings, and a young man’s first skateboard.

Sometimes, things need to be said. When someone is unaware of a problem, they should be informed, either directly or indirectly. To understate or overstate the problem would not be helpful. To assign blame when assigning blame is unnecessary would be hurtful. Other times, things do not need to be said. When someone is aware of a problem, they do not need to be reminded or told again. To restate the problem would at best be a slight insult to the intelligence, at worst cause emotional harm. How do we know when to say something and when to refrain? We have to understand not only the importance of our words, but also the need of the recipient to hear them. We have to weigh our impulse to say something against the effect those utterances have on the recipient. If we want to be kind to others, it is not enough to want or need to say something. We must understand the listener’s state of mind and be empathetic to their doubts and insecurities. The intention behind our words does not matter. What matters is the effect those words have on others.

(July 2, 2009) The Chesapeake Bay Log Canoes average about 30 feet in length and have a crew of 5 to 22 depending on size. Most are over 50 years old and some are over 100 years old. Log canoes were originally seafood harvesting workboats used on the Chesapeake. They get their name from the log construction of the original hulls, a feature still visible from within the cockpit, although they now have a fiberglass outer skin. The canoes are capable of exceeding 12kts and in ideal conditions can step up on a plane. They are very narrow relative to length, requiring the use of 10 to 15 foot wooden planks ("springboards" or just "boards") with crew weight in order to provide leverage against the rotational pressure of the massive sails. Log canoes do not have fixed keels in part because of the very shallow waters where they race. The summer racing season occurs mainly in Saint Michaels, Maryland, with other races held in Oxford and Chestertown, Maryland.

Zapping more tumors in mice An experimental cancer treatment tested in mice eliminated all traces of the disease, according to a study published Jan. 31 in Science Translational Medicine. The researchers believe the method, a way to rev up the immune system’s T cells, could be a rapid and relatively inexpensive cancer therapy unlikely to cause the adverse side effects seen with bodywide immune stimulation. T cells need revving because tumors often suppress their cancer-fighting activity, The method overcomes this by injecting two immune-stimulating agents into a tumor. Activated T cells then leave the original tumor and destroy others. “When we use these two agents together, we see the elimination of tumors all over the body,” says Ronald Levy, MD, professor of oncology and the study’s senior author. In the study, 87 of 90 mice were cured. Cancer recurred in the other three, but tumors regressed again after a second treatment. Researchers plan a small study of the method’s safety in people with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. For info, visit http://med.stanford.edu/cancer/trials/vaccine.html.

Alexander, Clifford Leopold, Jr. - Antje Daub lawyer, businessman, and secretary of the army, was born in New York City, the only child of Clifford Leopold Sr. and Edith McAllister. Alexander's father, a Jamaican native, became an apartment building manager of Harlem's Young Christian Association. His mother was from Yonkers, New York, where she worked for a real estate firm. Later she headed the New York City welfare department. She was the first African American woman to get elected to the Democratic Party's Electoral College. In this position she became a prominent figure in the broader civil rights struggle. Both parents inspired Alexander's later work to end racial discrimination. Alexander spent his childhood in New York City. He received his early education at the Ethical Cultural School and Fieldston Schools in the Bronx. After graduating from high school, Alexander went to Harvard University. Here he met McGeorge Bundy Harvard s Dean of Arts ... A version of this article originally appeared in African American National Biography.

If you have ever driven through North Carolina, it doesn't take much imagination to see the red clay soil as good base material for bricks. Our bricks come from that source. Triacic shale is added and baked at 2000 degrees F. in an automated robot-directed factory. The manufacturer is Triangle Brick of Durham, NC, and for you inquisitive types, their website is http://www.trianglebrick.com/. The pallet pictured contains about 550 bricks. Our particular brick is called Cape Cod and is sandblasted to roughen up the finish. Splashes of charcoal are added to provide variety and promote a look of age and maturity. Pieces of rope are used as spacers. The scaffolding is in place to provide platforms for the workers as they progress up the wall. Our reading about the brick process leads to the conclusion that the making of brick and its consequent use as a building material is both an art and a science! Inspector Suki has completed her survey of the leveling process on the wall and is now counting the bricks lined up for tomorrow's effort. She reports satisfaction at this juncture.

Objective: To provide an overview of impulse oscillometry and its application to the evaluation of children with diseases of the airways. Data sources: Medline and PubMed search, limited to English language and human disease, with keywords forced oscillation, impulse oscillometry, and asthma. Study selections: The opinions of the authors were used to select studies for inclusion in this review. Results: Impulse oscillometry is a noninvasive and rapid technique requiring only passive cooperation by the patient. Pressure oscillations are applied at the mouth to measure pulmonary resistance and reactance. It is employed by health care professionals to help diagnose pediatric pulmonary diseases such asthma and cystic fibrosis; assess therapeutic responses; and measure airway resistance during provocation testing. Conclusions: Impulse oscillometry provides a rapid, noninvasive measure of airway impedance. It may be easily employed in the diagnosis and management of diseases of the airways in children.

(Natural News) This may seem like a simple question for our long-time readers, but many new readers are asking, “How do I avoid GMOs?” It’s not just the GMOs themselves, of course, that people wish to avoid. It’s also the toxic, cancer-causing herbicide known as glyphosate that frequently saturates both genetically engineered crops and non-GMO crops alike. Glyphosate was recently added to California’s Prop 65 list of known cancer-causing chemicals. In this short video, I explain the simplest ways to avoid GMOs and glyphosate. They include: - Buying certified organic produce. - Looking for the “Non-GMO Project Verified” logo on grocery products. - Growing your own food. Watch this short video to learn more, and share everywhere. Follow more news on organics at Organics.news.

Waze (owned by Google) is a free community-based traffic and navigation application that was launched in 2008 and is now available in 40 languages. The application offers users several routes on how to arrive at their destination and provides them with real-time traffic and road information. An example of road information that users will receive on their journey is updates on traffic conditions - such as accidents, traffic jam, police control, and road closure. Waze uses national and local open traffic data from municipalities and governments, such as data from the National Data Warehouse for Traffic Information in the Netherlands. In addition, the application allows users to take an active role and share road reports on accidents or hazards along the way. This input is used by Waze to create optimised routes and to continuously update users on traffic and road information. Waze is one of the over 450 use cases published on the European Data Portal. If you are aware of another inspiring use case, share your experience and knowledge about different applications and websites using open data with the EDP via mail, Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn.

Assessment in child and adolescent psychiatry is a complex process that involves developmental, environmental, and experiential perspectives. Recently, there has been interest in including spiritual and religious assessment in the psychiatric assessment of children, but no well-recognized guidelines for such an assessment have been established. This article proposes an approach to spiritual assessment of children and adolescents that begins with developing an understanding of the family's spiritual and religious life, followed by a developmentally informed method of observing and talking with children and adolescents about their spiritual and religious beliefs. The article concludes with a discussion of ethical issues involved when the psychiatrist addresses issues of spirituality and religion with child and adolescent patients and their families. |Original language||English (US)| |Number of pages||13| |Journal||Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics of North America| |State||Published - Jan 1 2004| ASJC Scopus subject areas - Pediatrics, Perinatology, and Child Health - Psychiatry and Mental health

Also found in: Wikipedia. Born July 24, 1856, in Paris; died there Dec. 11, 1941. French mathematician. Member of the Académie des Sciences in Paris (1889) and the Académie Française (1924). Picard graduated from the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris in 1877 and was appointed a professor there in 1881. In 1886 he became a professor at the University of Paris. Picard’s research dealt chiefly with the theory of differential equations, particularly critical points and asymptotic solutions. He developed the method of successive approximations. In the theory of functions of a complex variable, Picard established an important theorem bearing his name. He was also the author of studies on algebraic functions and the application of such functions to the general theory of algebraic curves and surfaces. WORKSTraite d’analyse, 3rd ed., vols. 1-3.

Investigating driver’s attention while monitoring an autonomous vehicle ABOUT THE PROJECT At a glance The recent advent of autonomous vehicles in the last decade has changed the traditional role of drivers, from being fully responsible of all driving functions to adopting a supervising role in an automated vehicle. As of today, autonomous vehicles are not perfect systems, they may make mistakes and require the driver to take control. Drivers must then monitor the automated vehicle behaviors to ensure safety of such technology. The goal of this proposed project is to investigate whether drivers can monitor efficiently the actions of an automated car. To this purpose, we plan on analyzing drivers gaze and attention maps in a driving simulator in different degrees of car automation, from fully manual to fully autonomous vehicle. Distribution of attention of a driver in fully manual mode can be used as ground truth of where an attentive driver looks at. Here, we propose comparing this baseline to attentional maps from drivers in the automated conditions and use any deviation as an indicator of driver’s inattentiveness. A driver monitoring system can be developed based on these findings to alert drivers to maintain attention on critical situations. |Driver attention, Human attention, Autonomous cars, Self-driving vehicles, Eye movements, Driver monitoring system|

John Paul Jones The issue of taxation had immense symbolic importance on both sides of the Atlantic. Like most of his fellow members of Parliament, [Lord Frederick] North regarded the right of Britain to tax America as integral to the absolute and indivisible supremacy of Parliament over America. The concept of parliamentary sovereignty was more than an abstract doctrine. It had emotional resonance as a constitutional victory won against the monarchy in the Glorious Revolution, following the deposition of James II in 1688. It was regarded as essential for the protection of liberty in general. For Britain, the right to tax the colonies was fundamental to its authority to govern America. At the same time, taxation united colonial opposition more than any other grievance.

The Open MPI Project is an open-source Message Passing Interface (MPI) implementation developed and maintained by a consortium of academic, research, and industry partners. MPI primarily addresses the message-passing parallel programming model, in which data is moved from the address space of one process to that of another process through cooperative operations on each process. Open MPI integrates technologies and resources from several other projects (e.g., HARNESS/FT-MPI, LA-MPI, LAM/MPI, and PACX-MPI) in order to build the best MPI library available. A completely new MPI 3.2–compliant implementation, Open MPI offers advantages for system and software vendors, application developers, and computer science researchers. ICL’s efforts in the context of Open MPI have significantly improved its scalability, performance on many-core environments, and architecture-aware capabilities—such as adaptive shared memory behaviors and dynamic collective selection—making it ready for next-generation exascale challenges.

The pyramid is said to belong to Queen Sesheshet, the mother of King Teti who ruled from 2323 to 2291 B.C. and was the founder of the 6th Dynasty of Egypt's Old Kingdom. "The only queen whose pyramid is missing is Sesheshet, which is why I am sure it belonged to her," Hawass told Reuters. "This will enrich our knowledge about the Old Kingdom." U.S. & World Hawass' team has been excavating the site for two years. He says the discovery was only made two months ago when it became clear that the 16-foot-tall structure uncovered from the sand was a pyramid. "This may be the most complete subsidiary pyramid ever found at Saqqara," Hawass said. Hawass says the new pyramid is the 118th discovered so far in Egypt.

In chapter 12 of Investing in Kids, I also consider the state economic development benefits from reducing “attention deficit hyperactivity disorders”. We might imagine public health and education policies that might intervene to reduce such disorders. I based my estimated economic development effects on research by Currie et al (2009). They estimate how occurrences of ADHD/conduct disorders at various ages affect test scores in secondary school. I use these test score effects to estimate adult earnings effects. I also simulate how many of these youth are likely to remain in the state, thus affecting state labor force quality and the number and quality of jobs in the state. I specifically examine policies that might reduce the incidence of multiple period ADHD disorders. The idea is that once an ADHD disorder had been diagnosed, appropriate intervention might reduce future recurrences. I estimate that reducing one case of multiple-age-period ADHD had state economic development benefits of $31,000. This is the resulting increase in the present value of state residents’ earnings. Such a benefit would justify considerable spending on public health or education interventions to reduce ADHD incidence.

Food Safety & Recalls According to the United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an estimated 76 million cases of foodborne illnesses occur in the United States each year. This means that 1 in 4 americans are affected by foodborne illness each year. The majority of these cases are mild and cause symptoms for only a day or two. Some cases are more serious. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that there are 325,000 hospitalizations and 5,000 deaths related to foodborne illnesses each year. The most severe cases tend to occur in the very old, the very young, those who have a compromised immune system, and in healthy people exposed to a very high dose of an organism. The North Central District Health Department's goal is to ensure food safety through education and inspection. Below you will find valuable information which will help prevent the contraction and spread of foodborne related illness and promote good public health practices

This image of the greater Los Angeles area was taken on March 29, 2019, by ASTERIA, the Arcsecond Space Telescope Enabling Research in Astrophysics satellite. The Port of Long Beach is visible near the center of the image. ASTERIA is a CubeSat, or a small satellite composed of cube units that measure 10 centimeters (4.5 inches) on each side. ASTERIA was designed to demonstrate precision pointing technology in a CubeSat, which could be used to observe planets around other stars. A slight decrease in a star's brightness as detected by ASTERIA could indicate that a planet is orbiting the star and passed in front of the star. This is called a planet transit. After completing its primary mission objectives in January 2018, ASTERIA has continued to operate on an extended mission. The mission team took this image to further test the capabilities of the satellite. For more information about CubeSat see www.jpl.nasa.gov/cubesat/.

Volumetric Weight vs Actual Weight To illustrate the difference between volumetric and actual weight, consider the following example. There are two boxes, each the same size. One is filled with golf balls and the other is filled with ping pong balls. The box of golf balls would likely be charged by its actual weight while the box of ping pong balls would be charged by volumetric weight. Why? One box is heavier than the other, so they will be charged differently in shipping fees. The box of ping pong balls takes up the same dimensional space as the golf balls, but because the box of ping pong balls is lighter, it’s a less efficient use of space. As a result, the box of ping pong balls will be charged by volumetric weight.

via Bangkok Post, 26 Sep 2019: Travel feature on the area just south of the city of Ayutthaya, where the foreign districts used to be located. The ancient city of Ayutthaya was surrounded by rivers — the Lop Buri on the north side, the Pa Sak on the east side and the Chao Phraya on the remaining sides. South of the city island, known in Thai as Koh Muang, the Pa Sak merges with the Chao Phraya at the point where the latter makes a southward turn, away from Koh Muang. Hundreds of years ago, from the confluence to the Takiayokhin Mosque near the mouth of Takhian canal, about 3.5km further downstream (see map), this section of the Chao Phraya was full of trading vessels from many parts of the world. And the areas on both sides of the river were home to foreigners, from the Chinese, the Malays and other Asians to Europeans of different languages and cultures. Source: At the crossroads of history

A new way to interact with a computer is through a ‘brain-computer interface’. Rather than pushing buttons or even pointing with your finger, the computer reads your thoughts or emotions directly. One use is in Jedi-like games where you control a small football with your mind. The ball runs up and down a groove between two goals: yours and your opponent’s. The more you relax, the more the ball moves away from you, towards the other goal. The other player has to try and be more relaxed than you to move it towards your goal. Of course the closer the ball gets to the goal, the more excited you become, making the ball lurch back towards your goal again. The person most in control of their emotions will win! Superhero powers: reading minds

Set up a row of low plastic hurdles. Instruct athletes to line up behind the first hurdle. Instruct the first athlete to stand with feet about shoulder width apart and begin the movement by “hinging” at the hips and moving the arms and hands behind them as they hinge (athletic position). Instruct the athlete to create such movement quickly and then jump over the hurdle while bringing the knees up so that the feet can clear the hurdle. Instruct the athlete to land in the same position as when the athlete began the first jump and immediately repeat the jump over the next hurdle. Instruct the athlete to continue jumping through all the available hurdles in the line.

The mass of Saturn is 5.6846×1026 kg. Just for a comparison, this is 95 times the mass of the Earth. Saturn is much larger than Earth; its equator spans 9.4 times the size of our home planet. And yet, it’s much less dense. In fact, Saturn has such a low density that it would actually float on water if you could find a pool large enough. And so, even though it’s much larger and more massive than Earth, if you could actually stand on the “surface of Saturn” – which you can’t, there’s no surface – you would only feel 91% of gravity that we feel here on Earth.

The BAC TSR-2 was an ill-fated Cold War strike aircraft developed by the British Aircraft Corporation (BAC) for the Royal Air Force in the early 1960s. The TSR-2 was designed to penetrate a well-defended forward battle area at low altitudes and very high speeds, and then attack high-value targets in the rear with close-in bomb runs and precision drops. The TSR-2 included a number of advanced features that made it the highest performing aircraft in this role, yet the programme was controversially cancelled in favour of the General Dynamics F-111, a procurement that itself was later cancelled.Elliotts was involved in the design of the Flight Control system and the Head Up Display.

Years Manufactured: 1964 - 1965 Platform Type: Fixed Wing, Combat Initial Maker: British Aircraft Corporation (BAC) Final Maker: British Aircraft Corporation (BAC)

Both Federal and State law protect against discrimination based on a disability. A disability is any physical or mental impairment that substantially limits any major life activities. Major life activities include walking, seeing, hearing, breathing, learning, working, or the ability to perform manual tasks. What is protected under disability discrimination? When most people think about a disability they may picture someone in a wheelchair or with some other type of visible physical impairment. However, laws providing protections against disability discrimination cover much more than disabilities that can be seen. - Conditions such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, or diabetes usually fall under protected disabilities so long as they interfere with a major life activity. - Mental Health conditions can also be covered under disability discrimination, severe depression, anxiety, and other mental health illness could be grounds for seeking accommodations from your employer Usually employers provide accommodations for employees with disabilities but if the employer will not provide accommodations or you are missing out on employment opportunities because of your disability, you may have a claim for disability discrimination. All information on our website is meant to be generally informative. To find out whether you may have a case, you should consult an employment or discrimination attorney of your choice.

Caterpillars and Butterflies This term we have been learning about the lifecycle of a butterfly! Each classroom had a special pot of 5 tiny caterpillars to observe. They started off very small, but quickly grew bigger and fatter! The children were fascinated as they watched our caterpillars grow and change! After a couple of weeks, the caterpillars each crawled to the top of their pot and turned into a chrysalis! "It's like a little sleeping bag!!!" one of the children told us! We waited patiently for a little bit longer and then.....we watched the butterflies emerge from the chrysalides! It was so exciting!!! After a few days, we set the butterflies free in our garden. As they came out of the net, each butterfly flew around the circle of children before flying away! We've been busy with lots of caterpillar and butterfly themed activities this term. Lots of children had a go at making split pin caterpillars, printing caterpillars with paint and different objects, making butterfly patterns with various small resources and painting symmetrical butterflies by folding our paintings in half before they dried!

Gender-Specific Reproductive Tissue in Ratites and Tyrannosaurus rex Unambiguous indicators of gender in dinosaurs are usually lost during fossilization, along with other aspects of soft tissue anatomy. We report the presence of endosteally derived bone tissues lining the interior marrow cavities of portions of Tyrannosaurus rex (Museum of the Rockies specimen number 1125) hindlimb elements, and we hypothesize that these tissues are homologous to specialized avian tissues known as medullary bone. Because medullary bone is unique to female birds, its discovery in extinct dinosaurs solidifies the link between dinosaurs and birds, suggests similar reproductive strategies, and provides an objective means of gender differentiation in dinosaurs.

Dogs of Courage When Britain's Pets Went to War 1939–45 From 1939, when people were advised that if they couldn't send their pets to the country in wartime, 'it really is kindest to have them destroyed', to the Dickin Medals awarded at the end of the war, Clare Campbell tells the story of the dogs' war effort, whether conscripted to serve on the battlefields as messengers or mine detectors, or as rescue dogs working in the rubble of bombed buildings, sniffing out survivors on the home front. Informal Justice in England and Wales, 1760–1914 The Courts of Popular Opinion Examining ‘unofficial justice as visited upon malefactors by the collective actions of private citizens’, Stephen Banks gives a scholarly account of public shaming rituals, or ‘rough music’, and the punishments imposed for crimes such as wife-beating or informing.

A random variable Y is said to be Poisson random variable if Y takes value 0,1,2,3... with λ as a parameter. A Poisson random variable is used to approximate a binomial if the value of n is large and p is very small. and λ = np 1. The no. of an accident occurring on a highway each day is poisson random variable with parameter 3. What is the probability that no accident occurred? They are clearly saying " no accident " which means i=0 So using the above formula : p(i=0) = (e-3 (3)0 ) / 0 ! = e-3 or remember 0! =1

To conclude my research for this project, I personally believe that technology, when used correctly, can only benefit the overall learning of students. Technology however, should not be used as an outlet of laziness on behalf of educators. Technology is not present in the classroom so teachers can keep students busy while they help another student, etc. When technology is used correctly, the effects can be similar to those I was fortunate enough to witness while at Gesu. Due to the thought put behind various projects, and the ideas of how to incorporate websites into the school day, I was able to see students thrive with their school work. For example, the level of interest that I saw throughout the math project led me to wish I had projects such as these while I was in elementary school. The interest of the students at Gesu far surpassed the level of interest that I had while learning multiplication. In addition, by incorporating technology based projects, students are able to develop creativity as they learn. The development of creativity at such a young age will only benefit these students as they become older, and it is a skill that cannot be learned from a worksheet on multiplication problems alone.

Robots have been used in the past for surgeries on larger organs but now in some hospitals in UK, eye surgeries are being performed with the help of robots. This is part of a trial funded by NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre. The robotic device, developed by a Dutch company, reportedly acts as a ‘mechanical hand with seven independent computer-controlled motors’ and helps eliminate the risk of unwanted tremors as surgeons can use a ‘joystick’ to control movements. “It is still early days, but we hope this milestone brings us closer to our eventual goal of using robotic surgery to deliver gene therapy and stem cell treatments for currently incurable retinal diseases,” MacLaren added after performing the second surgery, where he injected a drug in the eye of a patient by using the device.
