Meave Leakey

**Meave G. Leakey** PhD DSc (hon) is a renowned paleontologist who studies the origin of mankind in West Africa. She was born Meave Epps, 28 July 1942 in London, and was married to Richard Leakey, the son of Louis and Mary Leakey. She is a research professor at Stony Brook University.

They have two children, Louise (born 1972) and Samira (born 1974). Her daughter Louise Leakey is also a paleontologist studying human origins.

Dr. Leakey's research team at Lake Turkana, Kenya made a discovery in 1999 that changed our understanding of early human ancestry. They found a 3.5 million-year-old skull and partial jaw thought to belong to a new branch of our early human family. She named the find _Kenyanthropus platyops_, or flat-faced man of Kenya.

Lake Turkana

**Lake Turkana**, formerly known as **Lake Rudolf**, is a lake in the Great Rift Valley in northwest Kenya. Its far northern end crosses into Ethiopia.

## Description

It is the world's largest permanent desert lake and the world's largest alkaline lake. By volume it is the world's fourth-largest salt lake after the Caspian Sea, Issyk-Kul Lake and the (shrinking) Aral Sea. Among all lakes, it ranks 24th in area.

The water is drinkable, but not palatable. It supports a rich lacustrine wildlife. The climate is hot and very dry.

The rocks of the surrounding area are predominantly volcanic. Central Island is an active volcano, emitting vapors. Outcrops and rocky shores are found on the East and South shores of the lake, while dunes, spits and flats are on the West and North, at a lower elevation.

On-shore and off-shore winds can be extremely strong as the lake warms and cools more slowly than the land. Sudden, violent storms are frequent. Three rivers (the Omo, Turkwel and Kerio) flow into the lake, but lacking outflow, its only water loss is by evaporation. Lake volume and dimensions are variable. For example, its level fell by  between 1975 and 1993.

Due to temperature, aridity and geographic inaccessibility, the lake retains its wild character. Many Nile crocodiles are  on the flats. The rocky shores are home to scorpions and carpet vipers. Although the lake and its environs have been popular for expeditions of every sort under the tutelage of guides, rangers and experienced persons, they certainly must be considered hazardous for unguided tourists.

## National Parks

Lake Turkana National Parks are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Sibiloi National Park lies on the lake's eastern shore, while Central Island National Park and South Island National Park are in the lake. Both have crocodiles.

## Anthropology

The Lake Turkana area is regarded by many anthropologists as the cradle of humankind because there are many hominid fossils. The skeleton of Turkana boy was found near the lake in 1984.

## In popular culture

- The lake's eastern shore (in Loiyangalani) was the setting for John le Carré's novel _The Constant Gardener_, and was also a location for the film of the same title.

- Part of the events in the novel _“Невозвращенец”_ (“The Non-Returnee”) by Andrei Gusev takes place on the shores of Lake Turkana in Loiyangalani (in the second part of this novel).

Degree of unsaturation

**Degree of unsaturation** (DOU) is a way to figure out how many rings or double bonds are in a molecule.

## Calculation

1. Determine the number of hydrogens that should be present if it was completely single bonded.  In other words use the formula 2n+2 (with n = the number of carbons present.
1. Subtract the total from above from the number of hydrogens actually present.
1. Take that number and divide it by two.  This number is your DOU.

Each degree either equals one ring structure or pi bond.  A double bond would have one DOU.  A triple bond would have a DOU of two (triple bond is one sigma bond with two pi bonds).

## Non-hydrocarbons

For the below, use the same rules as above, using the definitions below.
- Silicon counts as a carbon
- Boron, nitrogen and phosphorus each count as a "half a carbon"
- Halogens (Group 7) count as a hydrogen
- Oxygen, sulfur and selenium (Group 6) can be ignored

The game is set in the future America in the year 2027 and is about the nuclear-armed Korean People's Army (of North Korea) who invade the USA.  The game's main character can either fight the North Koreans in the main game or the Americans in the multiplayer game.

There has been controversy over the game's release in Japan where they censored the game by removing all the references to North Korea which included pictures of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il because they thought that to "use their real names would have been 'malicious' {evil} to an 'existing person' and an 'existing country.'". The game has also been banned from all types of sales in South Korea.

UDFy-38135539

**UDFy-38135539** (also known as **HUDF.YD3**) is a galaxy in the Fornax constellation. At present it is the farthest confirmed object ever seen. UDFy-38135539 is 13.1 billion light years from the Earth.

## Characteristics

The galaxy is in the constellation Fornax, and it is estimated that the galaxy contains a billion stars.

## Significance

The universe's first stars were massive,
ionizing hydrogen in the surrounding environment. This is called the ionization epoch.

UDFy-38135539 (HUDF.YD3) is probably the first galaxy seen in the reionization epoch. Caltech astronomer Brant Robertson, commenting on the study, stated that the "galaxy happens to reside at a very special time in cosmic history when the properties of gas in the universe were changing rapidly, and therefore this galaxy and others like it may teach us a lot about the early history of the universe". Michele Trenti, an astronomer who was not involved in the study but provided commentary published with the report, says that the discovery of the distant galaxy is
- "a fundamental leap forward in observational cosmology".

Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972

The **Wildlife Protection Act of 1972** is a set of laws created in 1972 by the Government of India. Before 1972, India had only five national parks.

The Act protects wild animals, a birds and plants in all of India, except the State of Jammu and Kashmir, which has its own wildlife act. It has six sections that give different degrees of protection. Schedule I  and part II of Schedule II  provide complete protection. Offences under these are given the highest penalty. Species listed in Schedule III  and Schedule IV  are also protected, but the penalties are much lower. Schedule V  includes the animals that can be hunted. The plants in Schedule VI  are prohibited from harvesting and planting.

Gombe Stream National Park

**Gombe Stream National Park** is a National Park in north-western Tanzania.

It borders on Lake Tanganyika, and is just south of the border with Burundi. The regional capital of western Tanganyika, Kigoma, is 10 miles (20 km) south of Gombe.

Established in 1968, Gombe is the smallest national park in Tanzania, with only  of forest running along the hills of the northern shore of Lake Tanganyika.

The terrain has steep valleys, and the forest vegetation ranges from grassland to alpine bamboo to tropical rainforest.

The Park can only be reached by boat.

### Chimpanzees

The Park is most famous as the place where Jane Goodall did her research on the chimpanzee groups.  The Kasakela chimpanzee community, featured in several books and documentaries, lives in Gombe Stream National Park.

Goodall discovered that the apes eat smaller monkeys regularly. They do this by cooperative hunting, gradually cutting off the monkey's escape routes. The extent of this predation is notable:
- "Goodall's Gombe data have also led researchers to take a closer look at the role that hunting plays in chimp feeding habits. One recent Gombe study, for instance, concluded that the 45 members of one troop ate a ton of monkey meat per year. During one hunting binge, chimps killed 71 colobus monkeys in 68 days; one chimp alone killed 42 monkeys over five years. All told, chimps may kill and eat a third of the Gombe’s colobus population each year".

## Other wildlife

Gombe Stream's high levels of diversity make it an increasingly popular tourist destination. Besides chimpanzees, primates living in Gombe Stream include beachcomber olive baboons, Red Colobus monkeys and vervet monkeys.

The park is also home to over 200 bird species and bushpigs.  There are also 11 species of snakes, and occasional hippopotamus and leopards.

Visitors to the park can trek into the forest to view the chimpanzees, as well as swim and snorkel in Lake Tanganyika with almost 100 kinds of colourful cichlid fish.

The Government of India has its main office at Parliament House in New Delhi. It is made up of three main branches: the legislature, the executive, and the judiciary. Each branch has its own role in running the country. The legislature is responsible for making laws, the executive carries out those laws, and the judiciary interprets and applies the laws.

According to the Constitution of India, the power to make laws is given to the Parliament, which has two houses. The executive power is held by the President and the Union Council of Ministers, which includes the prime minister and other ministers. The judicial power is held by the Supreme Court of India. The President is the official head of the country and plays a key role in all three branches.

India’s government system is based on the British Westminster model. It also has a federal structure, which means that power is shared between the central government and the individual states.

Lead poisoning

**Lead poisoning**, also known as **saturnism**, is a condition where there is too much lead in the body. Lead interferes with many processes. It is toxic to many organs and tissues, including the bones and brain. The half-life of lead in these tissues is measured in weeks for blood, months for soft tissues, and years for bone. Lead in the bones, teeth, hair, and nails is bound tightly and not available to other tissues, and is generally thought not to be harmful. In adults, 94% of absorbed lead ends up in the bones and teeth, but children only store 70% in this way, a fact which may partially account for the more serious health effects on children.

In 2013, lead is believed to have resulted in 853,000 deaths worldwide.

## Causes

The risk of lead poisoning is very small in developed countries. However, lead might be used in paints, petrol or food containers in some countries where it might be legal, such as in developing countries. Other ways a person can be exposed is from:
- lead pipes
- a lead water tank
- pipework with lead fittings
Causing the water supply to be contaminated.

One important cause of lead poisoning in the past was the leaded car fuel. The fuel companies added lead tetraethyl in petrol (US: gasoline) as it prevented knocking (premature ignition, also known as "dieseling") on petrol engines. The lead tetraethyl burned into lead oxide, which then spred in the air. The result was a widespread pollution of air in villages, town, and cities, and also pollution of the ground as rain brought the lead oxide down.

It is assumed all people in developed countries, born between 1945 to 1990, show some symptoms of lead poisoning because of the leaded car fuel. When this was observed, using lead as anti-knock stuff was prohibited. The crime statistics have come down after leaded car fuel was forbidden.

## Symptoms

Symptoms of lead poisoning include coughing, fatigue, and severe dehydration.

Exposure to lead can be harmful especially to unborn babies and young children. Infants and young children absorb a bigger percentage of lead from sources than adults. The signs and symptoms in young children can include:
- irritability and fatigue
- loss of appetite and weight loss
- abdominal pain
- vomiting
- constipation
- hearing loss
- developmental delay and learning difficulties

Although children are at increased risk of the effects of lead poisoning, exposure can also result in illness in adults. Symptoms in adults can include:
- high blood pressure
- abdominal pain
- constipation
- joint and muscle pain
- pain, numbness or tingling of the extremities (like the fingers and toes)
- headache
- miscarriage or premature birth in pregnant women
- fatigue
- memory loss

## Treatment

Treatment of the condition is usually to remove the source of lead. Animals sometimes from lead poisoning. Mostly, children are at risk for this condition.
Bulldozer

**Bulldozers** are crawling machines which have blades. These machines are used for pushing large amounts of dirt or rubble during demolition or construction. They have claw-like devices in the rear to loosen materials which are densely compacted.

Bulldozers are structurally different from excavators, but in many respects their functions are similar. If we talk about universal types of construction equipment, then bulldozers are used when a large amount of work is expected. According to the method of movement, the bulldozers are divided into wheeled and tracked. This construction equipment is used for levelling the soil layer, digging trenches, as well as for transporting bulk cargo. The bulldozer is an economical and efficient construction assistant.
Grand Duke Alexei Alexandrovich of Russia

**Grand Duke Alexei Alexandrovich of Russia** (Saint Petersburg 14 January 1850 (4 January O.S.) – Paris, 14 November 1908) was the sixth child and the fourth son of Alexander II of Russia and his first wife Maria Alexandrovna (Marie of Hesse). Destined to a naval career, Alexei Alexandrovich started his military training at the age of 7. By the age of 20 he had been appointed lieutenant of the Russian Imperial Navy and had visited all European military ports of Russia. In 1871 he was sent as a goodwill ambassador to the United States and Japan.

In 1883 he was appointed general admiral. He made a big contribution to re-equipping the Russian navy with new ships and in modernizing the naval ports. He was blamed for the Russian loss to the Japanese in the Battle of Tsushima. In 1905, he was relieved of his command. He died in Paris in 1908.

## Food

During 1871 the Grand Duke led a squadron of the Russian Navy on a return visit to the United States.  Whilst in New York a dinner in his honour was given at Delmonico's, and the dish Lobster Duke Alexis named for him in his honor by Charles Ranhofer.
