Could you explain how a moon draws angular momentum from a planet? I know that the gravitational force transfers momentum, but I don't understand the mechanics behind it.
There's a correct simple answer, a wrong simple answer, and a detailed correct answer.
The wrong simple answer is that the Moon raises two bulges in the oceans. The Earth's rotation pulls the bulge closer to the Moon ahead of the Moon angularly, and this in turn results in a transverse acceleration of the Moon. That transverse acceleration in turn causes the Moon to recede. That's a nice short and simple answer, but it's wrong. The tidal bulges don't exist. These tidal bulges is one of the few things Newton got wrong. What's worse, the people who promulgate that explanation know that it's wrong.
The detailed correct answer is that the tides dissipate in a few key spots on the Earth: The North Atlantic, Patagonia, the coast of Alaska and Australia. Averaged over time, the water piles up in those spots, and it does so in a way that leads the Moon when those spots are closer to the Moon than is the center of the Earth. It's a rather ad hoc explanation and it depends very much on the shapes and alignments of the continents. Right now there are two huge north/south barriers to free flow of the tides, the Americas and Afro-Eurasia. The tidal losses are much higher than nominal because of this, which makes the Earth's rotation rate slow down considerably faster than nominal, and also makes the Moon's recession rate be much faster than nominal. At other times in the Earth's history, the continents were aligned differently and the tides had a much freer flow. The slowing of the Earth's rotation rate was less than nominal during these times, as was the Moon's recession rate. Scientists can see these variations in the changes in length of day in tidal rhythmics and in iron bands. Sometimes length of day changed quickly, other times, not so quickly. The tidal bulge theory doesn't explain this. The dynamic theory of the tides does, but not nearly as simply as the bulge theory.
The correct simple answer is truly simple. Over the millennia, the tides are slowing down the Earth's rotation rate. That angular momentum can't just disappear because angular momentum is a conserved quantity. The angular momentum has to be transferred elsewhere. Since it is the tides that are slowing down the Earth's rotation rate, and since it is the Moon and the Sun that are the causes of the tides, that angular momentum must be transferring to the Moon and Sun. Since the Moon dominates over the Sun by a bit more than a factor of two with regard to tidal forces, most of that angular momentum has to be going to the Moon. The only place it can go is the Moon's orbit; the Moon itself is tidally locked to the Earth.
Does the exact mechanism really matter? One of the big joys of the conservation laws is that they let you skirt around details. By way of analogy, suppose you are trying to read up on Lie groups on the internet. If you follow link after link after link you'll eventually find yourself reading an article on the 1956 New York Knickerbockers. Those details just get in the way of understanding. That angular momentum is conserved and that the Moon is responsible for most of the slowing of the Earth's rotation rate is a good answer.

But after that the language becomes distinctly undiplomatic. Frost declared the UK “perplexed” by the EU’s rejection of the UK’s precedents from other trade deals and insistence on adding “unbalanced, unprecedented” provisions.
Indeed, Frost went on to give a list of examples where the EU was offering the UK less than it had offered other trading partners in earlier negotiations – arguing that the UK was being treated worse than the likes of Canada, Mexico, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, and Chile.
Then Frost came back to the familiar UK complaint about the onerous (but well-trailed) level playing field provisions, designed to ensure that the UK could not go rogue and undercut EU standards, and asymmetric rules on state aids – business subsidies.
The Frost letter reads more like the arguments of a barrister in a court of law. But the problem for Frost is that trade negotiations are not like legal arguments: there is no obligation at all on the EU to offer the UK the same as it has offered other countries before.
Frost’s complaints about the EU’s unreasonableness are unlikely to make many in the UK taskforce, or in distracted national capitals trying to cope with Covid, change their minds. The letter reads like a rather whiny child complaining that the big kid isn’t playing by the rules.
What Frost failed to set out is any of the benefits to the EU of the sort of agreements the UK was offering: why the EU would do much better to reach a position where a deal with the UK was possible, rather than let the UK float off with no deal.
And Frost failed to give any hint of any understanding of the EU’s concerns – and how the UK’s proposals helped address them.

The onset of signs and symptoms of ear infection is usually rapid.
Signs and symptoms common in children include:
- Ear pain, especially when lying down
- Tugging or pulling at an ear
- Difficulty sleeping
- Crying more than usual
- Acting more irritable than usual
- Difficulty hearing or responding to sounds
- Loss of balance
- Fever of 100 F (38 C) or higher
- Drainage of fluid from the ear
- Loss of appetite
Common signs and symptoms in adults include:
- Ear pain
- Drainage of fluid from the ear
- Diminished hearing
When to see a doctor
Signs and symptoms of an ear infection can indicate a number of conditions. It's important to get an accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment. Call your child's doctor if:
- Symptoms last for more than a day
- Symptoms are present in a child less than 6 months of age
- Ear pain is severe
- Your infant or toddler is sleepless or irritable after a cold or other upper respiratory infection
- You observe a discharge of fluid, pus or bloody discharge from the ear
An adult with ear pain or discharge should see a doctor as soon as possible.
An ear infection is caused by a bacterium or virus in the middle ear. This infection often results from another illness — cold, flu or allergy — that causes congestion and swelling of the nasal passages, throat and eustachian tubes.
Role of eustachian tubes
The eustachian tubes are a pair of narrow tubes that run from each middle ear to high in the back of the throat, behind the nasal passages. The throat end of the tubes open and close to:
- Regulate air pressure in the middle ear
- Refresh air in the ear
- Drain normal secretions from the middle ear
Swelling, inflammation and mucus in the eustachian tubes from an upper respiratory infection or allergy can block them, causing the accumulation of fluids in the middle ear. A bacterial or viral infection of this fluid is usually what produces the symptoms of an ear infection.
Ear infections are more common in children, in part, because their eustachian tubes are narrower and more horizontal — factors that make them more difficult to drain and more likely to get clogged.
Role of adenoids
Adenoids are two small pads of tissues high in the back of the nose believed to play a role in immune system activity. This function may make them particularly vulnerable to infection, inflammation and swelling.
Because adenoids are near the opening of the eustachian tubes, inflammation or enlargement of the adenoids may block the tubes, thereby contributing to middle ear infection. Inflammation of adenoids is more likely to play a role in ear infections in children because children have relatively larger adenoids.
Conditions of the middle ear that may be related to an ear infection or result in similar middle ear problems include the following:
- Otitis media with effusion is inflammation and fluid buildup (effusion) in the middle ear without bacterial or viral infection. This may occur because the fluid buildup persists after an ear infection has resolved. It may also occur because of some dysfunction or noninfectious blockage of the eustachian tubes.
- Chronic otitis media with effusion occurs when fluid remains in the middle ear and continues to return without bacterial or viral infection. This makes children susceptible to new ear infections, and may affect hearing.
- Chronic suppurative otitis media is a persistent ear infection that often results in tearing or perforation of the eardrum.
Risk factors for ear infections include:
- Age. Children between the ages of 6 months and 2 years are more susceptible to ear infections because of the size and shape of their eustachian tubes and because of their poorly developed immune systems.
- Group child care. Children cared for in group settings are more likely to get colds and ear infections than are children who stay home because they're exposed to more infections, such as the common cold.
- Infant feeding. Babies who drink from a bottle, especially while lying down, tend to have more ear infections than do babies who are breast-fed.
- Seasonal factors. Ear infections are most common during the fall and winter when colds and flu are prevalent. People with seasonal allergies may have a greater risk of ear infections during seasonal high pollen counts.
- Poor air quality. Exposure to tobacco smoke or high levels of air pollution can increase the risk of ear infection.
Most ear infections don't cause long-term complications. Frequent or persistent infections and persistent fluid buildup can result in some serious complications:
- Impaired hearing. Mild hearing loss that comes and goes is fairly common with an ear infection, but it usually returns to what it was before the infection after the infection clears. Persistent infection or persistent fluids in the middle ear may result in more significant hearing loss. If there is some permanent damage to the eardrum or other middle ear structures, permanent hearing loss may occur.
- Speech or developmental delays. If hearing is temporarily or permanently impaired in infants and toddlers, they may experience delays in speech, social and developmental skills.
- Spread of infection. Untreated infections or infections that don't respond well to treatment can spread to nearby tissues. Infection of the mastoid, the bony protrusion behind the ear, is called mastoiditis. This infection can result in damage to the bone and the formation of pus-filled cysts. Rarely, serious middle ear infections spread to other tissues in the skull, including the brain or the membranes surrounding the brain (meningitis).
- Tearing of the eardrum. Most eardrum tears heal within 72 hours. In some cases, surgical repair is needed.

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan admitted on Thursday that the government had been weak in bringing the corrupt elements to justice. He was speaking to a private channel.
He said that such elements easily evade justice despite there being substantial evidence against them. He added that a money laundering case was being faced by Shehbaz Sharif in the Lahore High Court, while Nawaz Sharif was declared as a proclaimed offender by the Islamabad High Court.
Weak prosecution has allowed all the major corrupt figures to roam freely, added PM. He also talked about the extension in tenure of Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa.
The prime minister said that the matter of COAS extension has not been discussed yet as November was still 10 months away. Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa will serve as the COAS till November 28, 2022 as part of his extension in 2019. Mr Khan further said that the relationship between the military and government was ideal. He sounded confident about the government completing its tenure, stating that they’d complete the five-year period.

John Ruskin and the Ethics of Consumption
John Ruskin and the Ethics of Consumption. By David M. Craig. Charlottesville, Va.: University of Virginia Press, 2006. ? + 422 pp. $60.00 (cloth).
John Ruskin (1819-1900) was one of the major figures of Victorian culture, highly influential as an art critic. In major works such as Modern Painters and The Seven Lamps of Architecture, he was able to set forth overarching visions of the nature of art and culture as well as to influence British taste and artistic developments. Ruskin is credited with providing helpful support for the appreciation of the impressionistic art of J. M. VV. Turner, and his artistic ideals, influenced by medieval art and culture, helped to shape die environment for the popularity of the pre-Raphaelite and Arts and Crafts movements of the late 1800s. Like William Morris, the major figure of medievalism and late Victorian decorative art, Ruskin was also a social critic and was involved with movements to improve the lives of British workers. Ruskin s later writings are more concerned with social issues.
The study by David Craig of Ruskin s "ethics of consumption" is too narrowly titled in some ways, because it will not prepare modern readers for what they will encounter here: the foundational elements of Ruskin's aesthetic theory, the influence of theology, the connection between imagination and religion, and his theories of work, culture, and moral character. But the scope of the book as a treatment of a theory of consumption is also part of the point: contemporary thought has compartmentalized problems, made them overly technical, and left them as the preserves of trained specialists.
The field of economics, for example, has been divided into subspecialties with complex mathematical models and formulas, and has become, like many other academic disciplines, more difficult to master. Non-specialists-for example, moral theologians or the Conference of Catholic Bishops - have been criticized and dismissed for daring to comment on economic issues "beyond their competence."
David Craig states in his introduction that the time is ripe for a reappraisal of what Ruskin can teach us. …

The California Science Center in Los Angeles, which now displays the space shuttle Endeavour, debuted itsFriday morning (May 31), featuring the silver Toyota Tundra pickup truck that helped deliver the massive orbiter to the museum last October.
The Giant Lever, which since 2003 has been exhibited in the science center's parking lot, invites visitors and in particular, children to use a tremendous purple lever to hoist a 6,645-lb (3,014 kilograms) truck into the air as a demonstration of the physics of leverage. The Giant Lever previously lifted an earlier model Toyota Tundra.
Friday's unveiling wasn't the only "pickup" however, for the science center: Toyota Motor Sales, USA also presented the museum with a check for $401,300, the amount raised during a "tweet drive" leading up to the . The donated funds are expected to go toward the building of the shuttle's permanent home, the planned Samuel Oschin Air & Space Center, where Endeavour will be displayed vertically, mated with rocket boosters and an external fuel tank, as it looked when on the launch pad.
NASA retired thetwo years ago following its 25th and final flight into space, which ended with an early-morning landing on June 1, 2011. More than a year later, after making the orbiter safe to be displayed, the space agency ferried the vehicle to Los Angeles atop a modified Boeing 747 jumbo jet.
from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to the California Science Center in October 2012 was mostly accomplished atop a NASA overland transporter powered by four computer-controlled vehicles. However, there was a short, but pivotal, stretch of the journey where the transporters could not be used.
"One of the biggest [challenges] was crossing a bridge over the 405 interstate," Frank Dominy, a project engineer with the Sarens heavy lifting and transport company, told Air&Space magazine. "California doesn't allow the type of equipment we use, so we had to move the shuttle over to different equipment just to cross the bridge."
"That's where Toyota filmed a commercial they towed [Endeavour] across with their pickup truck," Dominy said.
Toyota, which prior to the tow extensively tested its truck to make sure that it was up to the job, used a stock 2012 Tundra CrewMax half-ton pickup, identical to the model it was selling at its dealerships. No additional modifications were made to increase the Tundra's towing capacity or to generate more power, company officials said.
Driving the Tundra for the tow and TV shoot was precision driver Matt McBride, who previously appeared in other ads for Toyota and in feature films.
McBride's passenger for the short drive was former NASA astronaut Garrett Reisman, who flew aboard Endeavour in 2008. On Friday, Reisman attended the Tundra's unveiling as part of the California Science Center's lever exhibit.
Toyota's advertisements featuring Endeavour ran in print and on TV soon after the shuttle rolled into its temporary home inside theat the science center. The car company included a new cut of the TV commercial as part of its post-show for the 2013 Super Bowl.
Tundra Endeavour Tweet Drive
Toyota's participation transporting Endeavour continued a partnership between Toyota Motor Sales and the California Science Center to raise awareness of the space program and to educate the public through exhibits and programs.
In support of its role in Endeavour's museum delivery, the car company created a website where the public could get a look at the behind the scenes preparations for the towing and send re-tweets through Twitter promoting the move. For each tweet site visitors sent, Toyota announced it would donate $50 to the California Science Center, up to the first 10,000 tweets.
A total of 8,026 re-tweets were sent. Michael Rouse, vice president of diversity, philanthropy, and community affairs for Toyota Motor Sales, USA presented California Science Center president Jeffrey Rudolph with $401,300 as part of Friday's event.

Healthcare technology has produced innovations that target each of these groups independently to help with treatment management and monitor ongoing symptoms and complication risks. Regardless of where you are on the diabetes continuum, innovative products exist that can improve your quality of life.
No matter where you are on the diabetes continuum, healthcare technology can help improve your quality of life.
Diabetes patients can benefit from several new technological developments, from monitoring glucose levels to helping adhere to medication schedules.
The use of technology gives diabetes patients a better experience, minimizes the risk of serious complications, and helps improve treatment outcomes.
Self-monitoring with blood glucose meters
Managing blood glucose is critical to prevent symptoms and complications for patients diagnosed with prediabetes, Type 1, or Type 2 diabetes. Self-testing your blood sugar can help detect when the levels are high or low. In addition, it enables you to monitor the impact of diet, exercise, and diabetes medications on your blood glucose and to track whether you’re achieving your overall treatment goals.
Self-monitoring at home is simple with handy kits that include a lancing device, finger strips, and a glucometer that stores readings and reports time-based averages. Make sure you are using an accurate blood glucose monitor for reliable results and effective health data tracking.
Measuring levels with continuous glucose meters (CGMs)
A CGM differs from a blood glucometer in that instead of measuring the glucose in a blood sample, readings come from the interstitial fluid. This is a thin layer of bodily fluid surrounding the cells of tissues beneath the skin. To use a CGM, patients get a sensor implanted just below the skin. The device measures glucose levels at set intervals that can be as often as every five minutes, transmitting the data wirelessly to a monitoring device or smartphone.
Since 2018, patients can get FDA-approved, implantable CGMs they can wear for up to three months. CGMs work for all diabetes patients to track glucose levels and understand how lifestyle and medication affect blood sugar. Moreover, these devices can forewarn patients about potential complications. Most CGMs are highly accurate and help providers identify trends and use patterns for fine-tuning a treatment plan.
Modern insulin delivery
Insulin administration has come a long way since Type 1 diabetes patients had to inject it into their bellies. Automated insulin delivery (AID) systems, insulin pens, and smartphone applications all make receiving insulin much simpler and more convenient.
AID systems have three main components: a controller, a pump mechanism, and a glucose sensor such as a CGM. Many systems are closed-loop methods that detect and predict the effect of meals, exercise, stress, insulin sensitivity, and other conditions. The controller adjusts insulin doses to match your body’s reaction to these events.
Modern insulin pens are reusable injectors that connect to an intuitive smartphone app. The system calculates and tracks insulin doses and delivers helpful alerts, reminders, and reports. For example, pen devices can remember the size of your last dose and delivery time and connect to a smartphone or smartwatch. They can also integrate with diabetes data tracking platforms to calculate dosages based on your blood glucose levels, meals, and other criteria.
Administering other types of diabetes medication
While insulin is the best-known diabetes medication, it’s primarily used for treating Type 1 diabetes. Type 2 diabetics often require other types of oral medication or non-insulin injectables, such as Metformin, various types of inhibitors, and combination therapies. Smart medication dispensers are rapidly replacing the old pill organizers and often come with tamper-proof refills prepared by a pharmacist.
The most sophisticated medication dispensers include remote monitoring capabilities to make sure patients take the correct medications at the right time. The devices register and store vital statistics, notify the pharmacy when medication is running low, and use security protocols like biometric identification for both replenishment and usage.
The systems can notify physicians or other providers if doses are missed and accurately record the consumption of as-needed and over-the-counter medications.
Keeping diabetic foot problems at bay
People with diabetes are vulnerable to a multitude of foot problems caused by neuropathy or nerve damage. This condition causes pain and tingling and can result in the loss of feeling in your feet. Symptoms and complications of diabetic neuropathy include changes in skin temperature and color, swelling in the feet and ankles, toenail fungus, corns, calluses, and dry skin resulting in cracks and bleeding. Patients often develop diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) that can become infected and are typically slow to heal.
Keep diabetic foot problems at bay with early detection of DFU risk. Research shows that a persistent temperature difference between identical sites on opposite feet for two consecutive days can accurately predict ulcer development. Other products monitor pressure and the amount of time you spend on your feet. Smart insoles that monitor foot temperatures and integrate with smartphone applications can alert you or your provider to the risk of a DFU. An intelligent insole system study showed a 71 percent reduction in ulcer incidence in the active group compared with the control group.
Benefiting from comprehensive remote patient monitoring
Remote patient monitoring is another way diabetes patients can benefit significantly from technology. Most digital monitoring devices gather data that can help providers understand patient needs and the progression of their illnesses. The devices trigger real-time alerts that allow providers to intervene early and prevent the onset of complications. This reduces your risk of a diabetic emergency, improves your treatment outcome, and helps you and your healthcare insurer save money.
Healthcare technology offers diabetes patients a range of convenient ways to manage their treatment and prevent the development of complications. Many of these options are covered by healthcare insurers because they reduce the costs associated with medical emergencies and improve patients’ overall health. Contact your provider to discuss your options and find out what diabetes technology your insurer covers.

Todd J. Barber, Cassini lead propulsion engineer
While Cassini's flight team enjoyed a brief break during solar conjunction, the spacecraft itself continued its scientific tour de force before, during, and after. Nearly a month ago, our imaging instruments took almost half a day to search for elusive "spokes"-- dark, radial features within or near Saturn's rings. I remember seeing spokes for the first time over a quarter century ago, surely one of the most perplexing of Voyager's results at Saturn as brilliantly revealed in the pages of "National Geographic." We predict these features will become more prevalent as the geometry of the rings with respect to the sun changes in the coming years.
Cassini also has been observing Saturn itself, mounting a coordinated effort to unlock the mysteries of the north polar region. Any one instrument helps reveal a piece of the puzzle, but only by assembling the puzzle pieces back on Earth can we truly understand the complexities of localities like Saturn's north pole. Perhaps in the interest of hemispherical fair play, Cassini also searched for aurora near Saturn's southern pole. Observations of a lovely crescent Rhea and its dark side closed out August, along with movies of Saturn's kinked F-ring and infrared observations of Titan to help reveal surface composition. What a way to go into solar conjunction!
Another pivotal discovery occurred within the last few weeks, indeed this one worthy of a press release. Our tireless explorer discovered faint ring arcs acting as bookends for two of Saturn's tiny moons, Anthe and Methone. As with spokes, the ring arcs discovered by Voyager 2 at Neptune are among my favorite of solar system surprises, for just as spokes should shear apart in rotating ring systems, ring arcs should quickly spread out and form a uniform ring. Apparently, a gravitational resonance with Saturn's twin of the "Death Star," Mimas, helps keep these ring arcs stable. Nature isn't always as symmetrical and orderly as our simplified models predict--and that's one of many reasons planetary science is so, well, heavenly.

Jewelry ancient to modern
Baltimore — People have always worn jewelry. Their reasons for doing so have stayed pretty much the same and, in many cases, so have the functions of particular articles.
The badge still signifies office or rank. The ring may denote an association or symbolize union. the pin serves decorative as well as utilitarian purposes. The ostentatious gewgaw proclaims wealth. anyone who questions the amuletic and mystical symbolism of jewelry might think back a few years to the time when the gullible were so easily sold on mood rings.
The precious articles now in the display cases at the Walters Art Gallery for the exhibition "Jewelry -- ancient to Modern" span a period of 6,000 years. It is one of the most comprehensive jewelry shows ever held in the United States.
Many of the oldest pieces demonstrate the immutabilities of human nature, like the gold and bronze eight-century Greek fibula, an ancestor of the safety pin, which kept the folds of an ancient garment together while serving as an ornamental object.
Beyond that, the articles evidence lost skills. No one understands how in 700 B.C. the Etruscans produced the fine granulations of their gold pectorals and earrings without tools. The art disappeared along with later hand skills that ceased to be practiced after the industrial Revolution.
The 1,000 objects in the exhibition, which are on view through Jan. 20, represent only a portion of the museum's riches. Henry Walter's passion for rare jewelry reached its height in the 1920s, when the pieces he purchased in Europe and New York were shipped to Baltimore by the crateload.
His father, William T. Walters, made a fortune in railroads and became one of the 19th century's great american connoisseur-collectors and art patrons Henry Walters enlarged the family art holdings further, sometimes combining pleasure cruises on his yacht, the Narada, with extensive purchasing tours. In 1900 he dropped anchor in the harbor of st. Petersburg (alongside the yacht of the Czar) and went ashore on a foray into the shop of the court jeweler, Carl Faberge. some of the jeweled parasol handles that Mr. walters selected on that buying spree are in the current exhibition.
The finely wrought Faberge trinkets are unspectacular when compared with a showpiece like Louis Comfort Tiffany's "Irin corsage." A nine-inch-long stemmed blossom rendered in gold and silver, it is set with 120 sapphires as well as numerous diamonds and dematoid garnets. The piece was seldom if ever actually worn.
"It was never tested whether you could dance with the lady who was wearing the 'Iris Corsay,' says anne Garside, head of publications for the Walters Art Gallery.
Among sybaritic items that Mr. Walters collected are pieces wrought by Rene Lalique. When Mr. Walters spotted the French Craftsman's display at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, the collector bought the whole lot.
In today's terms, the Lalique orchid comb (a five-inch flower carved from a single piece of ivory and enclosed by three plique-a-jour transparent enamel leaves veined with diamonds) was a staggering bargain for $1,000. Lalique's brooch with fruit clusters (a large pale pink pearl surrounded by enamel laurel leaves and mother-of-pearl fruit) seems equally cheap for the $1,8000 Mr. Walters paid.
The prize of the Walters collection is probably the Estarhazy marriage collar , a dazzling decoration of South German or Hungarian origin, which Palatine Miklos esterhazy wore from shoulder to shoulder on his doublet in 1611. a marvel of workmanship and symbolism, it links up 14 multilevel pieces of gemset enameled gold in a layer-by-layer buildup of such subjects as clasped hands, parrots and doves, and the cornucopia of prosperity.
Somewhat less magnificent are the Renaissance hanging pendants that nobles and their ladies attached to the big sleeves of their velvets and silks so the jewel would be visible from all angels.
Themes of these pendants reflect the Age of Discovery (many are galleons of fish), as well as a time when sanitation and cleanliness were not at their peak. Many pendants are hinged containers for musk or ambergris to mask unpleasant odors. The double-eagle design of a 16th-century German pendant of design incorporates a toothpick -- a curved claw that issues from the beak of an eagle.
It is in barbaric jewelry that the Walters Art Gallery collection surpasses any other in the world. The simple design concept of the Hunnish goldsmith who created the beaten gold carnelian-studded trappings of a fourth century horseman are quite contemporary in feeling. The garnet-encrusted eagle brooches that once fastened the cloak of a Visigoth chieftain look as if they could be worn today. But there you are. as the French are fond of saying, "the more it changes, the more it is the same things."

St. John’s Other Revolt: The Desertions of 1840
On the night of May 24, 1840, estates Annaberg and Leinster Bay were the scenes of one of the largest mass desertions of enslaved laborers on St. John since the outbreak of the 1733 slave insurrection more than a century before. In all, eight men (Charles Bryan, James Jacob, Adam [alias Cato], Big David, Henry Law, Paulus, John Curay), and three women (Kitty, Polly, and Katurah) were involved. The group made their escape by stealing the estates’ boat, the Kitty Berg, and rowing the vessel to nearby Tortola under the cover of darkness. Ten of the individuals were from Leinster Bay, while only one was from Annaberg [SJPR, 1840; SOFS, 1854].
According to police reports of the incident, the runaways had carefully planned their escape. One of their numbers, Big David, was the watchman at the Leinster Bay plantation on the night of the desertions; another, Charles Bryan, was a carpenter, and it was believed that he had secretly fashioned oars and hidden them for the occasion. In preparation for leaving, members of the group had sold their “pigs and small animals on St. Thomas.” Their houses were found empty of belongings after their departure [SJPR, 1840].
The incident was first reported to authorities at 10 o’clock on Sunday morning, May 25. Upon notification of the escape, Police Master Brahde immediately made his way from his home in Coral Bay to Annaberg, where he found the estate overseer, Mr. Davis, in a state of great consternation. Davis, who expressed complete bewilderment over the incident, claimed that he “knew no reason for the Negroes’ desertion,” and explained that upon his evening inspection at 8 o’clock he had found “everything as it should be” on both the Annaberg and Leinster Bay plantations [SJPR, 1840].
After inquiries on the estates proved largely uninformative, Brahde concluded that, beyond determining that the group had fled to Tortola, no further pertinent details of the case would be forthcoming. In an effort to resolve the matter as quickly as possible, he decided that his first course of action should be to immediately send the local Moravian missionary, Brother Schmitz, to Tortola to plead with the deserters to return home. After sending word to Schmitz to prepare for the journey, Brahde hastily set out for St. Thomas to secure the governor’s formal pardon for the runaways in the event they consented to come back to St. John [SJPR, 1840].
Late Sunday night Brahde returned to St. John with assurance that none of the group would be prosecuted, and early the next morning Brother Schmitz set out in a hired boat for Tortola to negotiate. Upon his arrival in the British colony the missionary went directly to the local magistrate, Mr. Lewis, who called a gathering of the runaways at his home to discuss the issue. According to Schmitz, the house was soon crowded with not only the refugees from St. John, but also a number of local “free farmers” who had come to voice their support for the group. Once assembled the deserters expressed in no uncertain terms that they were “the utmost embittered” towards overseers Davis and Wallace, and that none of them would return as long as either of those men remained on the estates. The most vocal of the group, Charles Bryan, stated that the cause for their dislike of those individuals was that they could never “work enough” to please them, and “for each trivial matter were locked up or punished.” To each account offered as to how they had suffered at the hands of the overseers, the free Tortola people in the crowd responded with hearty cries of “Hear! Hear!” [SJPR, 1840].
Convinced of the groups’ resolve, Brother Schmitz returned to the Emmaus Mission Station on St. John where he penned a report to Police Master Brahde. In his report, Schmitz stated that he had been well treated by the people on Tortola, but held out little hope that any of the refugees would ever return [SJPR, 1840].
In fact, some of the group did return, but not until well after overseers Davis and Wallace had left the estates. During a hearing held in connection with claims for compensation due to the former owners of emancipated slaves on January 16, 1854, Charles Bryan recounted what had become of each of the eleven members of the group. In his testimony Bryan stated that he, along with his wife Katurah and James Jacobs, had all returned to work at Leinster Bay and were currently residing there. Of the others, Kitty, Paulus, David, and Adam had been recently seen on St. Thomas, while Henry Law, Petrus, and Polly — who on at least one occasion had visited her family at Leinster Bay — were still living on Tortola. As for John Curry, he had left Tortola bound for Trinidad soon after the meeting with Brother Schmitz in 1840. Bryan added that as recently as two years ago he had heard from a Tortola boat captain that Curry was “still on Trinidad and was well” [SOFS, 1854].
No record was found of any punitive actions ever having been taken against any member of the group.

Scientists use only salt and sunlight to counteract the heating planet
A one-slide summary of this article with questions to use with your 14–16 students: rsc.li/3az989B
Researchers have developed a system that uses endothermic dissolution of a salt in water to cool its immediate surrounding area. Solar energy can then regenerate the solute and this means the cyclic system can work without requiring an electricity supply, making it well-suited for users in remote areas.
The system has two stages. The first stage involves dissolving ammonium nitrate salt in water in a metal cup, which requires energy. This energy is drawn from the immediate environment, cooling the air surrounding the cup as well as the solution. The second stage regenerates the solute by evaporating the water solvent and is achieved by wicking the solution vertically onto the surface of a 3D structure, which, when exposed to simulated sunlight, offers a large area over which the solvent can evaporate. This leaves behind a compact crystalline salt layer on the surface, from which larger crystals can drop-off over time, to be collected underneath the structure for re-use.
The system can deliver cooling whenever needed, all day long and all year round, while the solar solute regenerator works during daytime when solar energy is present. This system is not at all expensive as both the dissolution cooling system and solute regenerator are cheap. However, there are some limitations to consider. Compared to conventional air conditioning, this system still has a low cooling power, and it is only suitable for cooling small spaces.

Objective: ensure that all personnel that work in or visit the nursery consistently follow phytosanitary practices
What you need to know: Everyone who works in the nursery needs to understand how Phytophthora spreads and how to avoid spreading it. For many, this will require substantial changes in thinking about how they go about tasks in the nursery. Personal protective equipment may need to be worn for some sanitizing procedures. Personal protective equipment that is reused needs to be cleaned and/or sanitized as appropriate. Visitors will be less informed about phytosanitary practices, so you need to ensure that they follow proper protocols or exclude them from clean areas of the nursery. This practice is applied in any critically clean situation in many industries.
6.1.1. Nursery workers should be trained in approved phytosanitary procedures and follow the procedures at all times. Make sure nursery workers have access to resources that discuss BMPs and clean nursery practices so they understand how Phytophthora spreads and the reasons for clean working practices. Encourage workers to ask questions if they are unclear about procedures or their rationale.
6.1.2. Clothing worn in clean areas of the nursery should be free of contamination. Don’t enter clean areas wearing clothes that may have soil from your yard, other landscaped areas, field sites, trails, or other potentially contaminated areas. Change clothes or use a removable outer layer (apron, smock, or coveralls) if you will be working with contaminated materials (e.g., cleaning used pots) and in clean nursery areas on the same day. Ensure personal protective equipment is clean and sanitized as appropriate.
6.1.3. Footwear should be cleaned and sanitized before entering clean areas of the nursery. Clean off all soil and detritus first and finish by soaking the soles and contaminated portions of the uppers with a disinfectant (e.g., 70% alcohol).
6.1.4. Use waterproof gloves when possible and clean and sanitize regularly (or discard as needed if using disposables). Use separate gloves for highly contaminated operations such as cleaning used pots.
6.1.5. Leather or fabric gloves are hard to sanitize and keep free of soil particles and should be avoided. Where use of these gloves is necessary, use multiple washable pairs and change into clean gloves if gloves become contaminated or when switching between activities that could result in cross contamination.
6.1.6. Don’t allow volunteers or other workers to bring home gardening gloves into the nursery unless they are freshly laundered.
6.1.7. If not using gloves, wash hands thoroughly with soap and water or hand sanitizer (quaternary ammonium or alcohol based) making sure clean off all adhering soil.
6.1.8. Require nursery visitors to follow the phytosanitary procedures that would apply to nursery workers, including clean clothes, shoes, and hands. Don’t allow visitors to enter clean areas or handle plants or clean materials without following the appropriate phytosanitary procedures.
6.1.9. Because information related to Phytophthora and other pests and diseases continues to expand and recommendations may change, keep in touch with the latest research and regulatory findings.

The daily auctions for the Hungary-Ukraine border will start on 22 February for delivery on 23 February and for Slovakia-Ukraine on 4 March for delivery two days later, said JAO, the main service provider for European TSOs.
Ukraine generally imports electricity from Slovakia, Romania, Poland and Moldova, with the country's TSO organising most of the cross-border trade.
Currently, Ukraine's TSO has offered up to 350 MW for imports from Slovakia and no capacity from Hungary for delivery on Wednesday.
In January, JAO took over the allocation of capacity on the Rzeszow-Chmielnicki link between Ukraine and Poland. Since then, it has been offering up to 425 MW per hour for imports from Poland, while the capacity for exports from Ukraine has been mostly zero.
Ukraine, which is fighting off Russian aggression, also occasionally uses emergency imports from neighbouring TSOs of a few hundred MWs per hour.

The Sundance Film Festival kicks off the year with a slate of indie films and acquisitions that slowly wind their way to audiences over the ensuing months (or years). The Toronto International Film Festival is its polar opposite: a showcase where star-studded studio films are often the rule rather than the exception, and where many of the fall’s films kick off their awards season campaigns in earnest.
This year, movies like The Magnificent Seven, Arrival, and Oliver Stone’s Snowden will all be in the lineup. But all that star wattage isn’t the only attraction. Like any festival, Toronto is filled with quirky outliers and weird surprises, the kind of movies that make even people who are seeing four movies a day for 10 days straight sit up and take notice. The day before TIFF 2016 kicks off, The Verge’s Bryan Bishop and Tasha Robinson talk about which films they’re most excited about this year, and what surprises they hope they’ll find.
Bryan Bishop: One of the things I’m most looking forward to about Toronto is the festival’s tendency to program just a little bit of everything, from the biggest awards season contenders to the weirdest, strangest indies you can think of. But I’d be remiss if I didn’t have one film in particular at the top of my list: Denis Villeneuve’s Arrival. With Prisoners and Sicario, Villeneuve has emerged as one of the more fascinating directors of the last few years. Starring Amy Adams as a linguist called in to advise the military when aliens make first contact with humanity, Arrival has all the markings of a measured, Oscar-worthy sci-fi story — and the expectations to match.
My must-see list is a muddle of really hard scheduling choices
Tasha Robinson: I admire your resolution to put just one film at the top of your list. My must-see list is a muddle of really hard scheduling choices. The festival’s first full day of press-and-industry screenings includes so many things I really want to see: the new Jim Jarmusch (Paterson), Thomas Vinterberg (The Commune), Ken Loach (I, Daniel Blake), Kenneth Lonergan (Manchester by the Sea), Oliver Assayas (Personal Shopper), Kelly Reichardt (Certain Women), and half a dozen more. And they’re playing in more than 14 theaters simultaneously, so there’s no way to catch more than a couple of them. You remember Burgess Meredith at the end of the old Twilight Zone episode "Time Enough At Last," alone after the apocalypse with endless books to read, and then he breaks his only pair of glasses? That’s how I feel, looking at the TIFF schedule. But if you forced me to pin down one list-topper, it’d be Park Chan-Wook’s The Handmaiden, which I wrote up for our fall movie preview. The director of Oldboy (one of my favorite films) tackling the scheming and betrayal of Sarah Waters’ tremendous novel Fingersmith? I can’t wait. You mentioned Toronto’s gap between awards contenders and strange indies. From all reports, The Handmaiden rides the line between those extremes by being tasteful, arty, trashy, and surprising at the same time, like so many of Park’s films.
Bryan: One of my fondest film festival memories was watching the original Blair Witch Project premiere at Sundance, back when people really didn’t know if it was all made up or not. So there’s definitely some nostalgia talking when I say I can’t wait to see its surprise sequel, Blair Witch, at Toronto — but there’s good reason, too. The film is directed by Adam Wingard, and written by his creative partner Simon Barrett. With movies like You’re Next, the pair have demonstrated a serious awareness of audience expectations — and the ability to subvert them with tremendous results. If anybody can make Blair Witch relevant again, it’s Wingard and Barrett.
Tasha: I’m down for the big names and the big franchises, but at film festivals, I’ve consistently found that some of the best festival-movie experiences are the complete surprises. Looking into festival films just because they fit into the limited slot between two must-see movies has become my favorite way to fall in love with new directors and little films like Felix Thompson’s King Jack or Lou Howe’s Gabriel or Chris Sullivan’s dreamy animated nightmare Consuming Spirits. So far this year, my biggest hadn’t-heard-of-it schedule surprise has been The Red Turtle, produced by Japan’s Studio Ghibli and directed by Dutch animator Michaël Dudok de Wit. Check out the gorgeous trailer, which doesn’t look like Ghibli’s usual visual style, but does have some of its usual aura of warmth and joy. I’m so excited for this one.
Bryan: The variety of genre and horror films at Toronto this year has really surprised me, and it’s an area of the schedule I keep returning to. Along with the movies we’ve already mentioned, high on my list is Ana Lily Amirpour’s follow-up to A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, a dystopian cannibal movie called The Bad Batch. Then there’s the strangest, oddest, WTF record-scratchiest one of all: Sadako vs. Kayako. It’s where the villains from the original Japanese versions of The Ring and The Grudge face off. Given that I’ve seen Freddy vs. Jason, I have no idea how this was even made, much less programmed at a festival. Except that… perhaps it’s actually good? Color me surprised, intrigued, and ready to watch.
Tasha: I always feel juuuuust a little guilty about the urge to prioritize midnight movies over solemn arthouse pictures, but I’m with you on Blair Witch and The Bad Batch, and I’m especially hyped up for The Girl with All the Gifts, a post-apocalyptic zombie movie adapting one of my favorite books of 2014. This is such a distinctive and different take on the zombie thriller, and I can’t wait to see what it looks like on-screen, with Gemma Arterton, Glenn Close, and Paddy Considine in the lead roles.
Bryan: I’m going to absolve everyone from guilt with the next film on my must-see list, because it may just be the biggest guilty pleasure of them all: The Magnificent Seven. Antoine Fuqua? Directing Chris Pratt, Denzel Washington, and Vincent D’Onofrio? From a script by True Detective’s Nic Pizzolatto? It seems like a such a summer-friendly blockbuster, that it’s hard to believe the film is arriving in September — much less using an international film festival for its splashy debut. But that seems to be the fun of a festival that mixes the biggest and the most obscure names in one flashy, 10-day movie celebration.
Tasha: I should probably acknowledge some more of the big names on our hit list: Pulse director Kiyoshi Kurosawa has a French-language ghost story about old-school photography, and Pedro Almodóvar is back with an anthology adapting Alice Munro short stories. I’m deeply curious about Ewan McGregor’s star-packed directorial debut, American Pastoral, based on the Philip Roth novel, and Damien Chazelle’s Whiplash follow-up La La Land, which is already a festival hit. And one more thing: The Dardennes brothers’ new feature The Unknown Girl sounds fascinating. Their films (The Son; La Promesse; Two Days, One Night) are always intimate, exquisitely crafted studies of people struggling with decisions that hurt other people. This one, a film noir about a doctor unraveling the mystery of what happened to a patient she fatally ignored, sounds unusually dramatic, while well inside their wheelhouse.
One bonus about the big awards-hungry movies: many of them are already scheduled to hit American screens soon, so our TIFF coverage doubles as a more extended preview of America’s fall-to-winter prestige season. We’ll be seeing plenty of films that are still looking for distributors, and we’ll be hoping to be part of the process of drumming up interest for the best of them.
Bryan: I think your last point is going to end up being the most interesting part of Toronto this year. Depending on where somebody works in the entertainment industry, a film festival like this can be many things: a business opportunity, a place to close a deal, an opportunity to catch a break, or an occasion for a career to be resuscitated. But from a cultural perspective it’s something more. Films and television are the two most predominant forms of visual storytelling we have, and the issues and themes that movies tackle both reflect our own cultural struggles — it’s not simple coincidence that Jeff Nichols’ film about the couple behind Loving v. Virginia is coming out the same time as Birth of a Nation — and have the ability to shape our larger discourse.
In that sense, watching the films at Toronto this year will be a little bit like peeking into the future; a barometer check that will let us know what new voices are emerging, what issues filmmakers worldwide are moved by, and even what direction mainstream entertainment as a whole is headed. It’s an opportunity to have tomorrow’s conversations today, because no film — no matter the genre, budget, or star power — happens entirely in a vacuum. Not in how it’s conceived of or made, and never in how it is received.

(PhysOrg.com) -- Just like humans, chimpanzees mimic the laughter of their playmates even if they don't find the situation as 'funny'.
New research from the University of Portsmouth, published in the journal Emotion, has produced the first evidence that apes do not just 'ape' the expressions of their social partners, but that their responses have a distinct social and emotional meaning. This shows that great apes have a more complex social use of expressions than previously thought.
Lead author, behavioral biologist Dr. Marina Davila-Ross said: "I didn't expect to find such prominent differences between responsive and spontaneous laughter in chimpanzees, but my biggest surprise was the results showing those in newer groups mimic their playmates more often than those in established groups where the chimpanzees know each other well. This suggests mimicking laughter might play a special role in strengthening social bonds."
The findings reveal important similarities with findings on humans, where both laugh cultures and mimicking cultures have been reported.
Dr. Davila-Ross, of the University's Department of Psychology, said: "Humans clearly use laughter as an important response in a wide range of social situations, but it is particularly interesting that chimpanzees seem to also use laughter to respond in such distinct ways.
"Great apes' ability to manage the sounds they make seems to be much more limited than humans and other animals, and even parrots. Nonetheless, their laughter might be partly managed and partly automatic.
"They do not just mimic the expressions of their playmates; they respond with their expressions in more complex ways than we were aware of before.
"We found their responsive laughter shows a similarity to the conversational laughter of humans. Both are shorter than spontaneous laughter and both seem designed to promote social interaction.
"These sorts of responses may lead to important advantages in cooperation and social communication qualities that help explain why laughter and smiles have become integral tools of emotional intelligence in humans.
The researchers found that responsive laughter is also used differently across social groups of chimpanzees compared to their use of spontaneous laughter. It is not evident at such a young age as spontaneous laughter, it is shorter, and it seems to prolong play, which has a vital role in the physical, emotional, social and cognitive development of both chimpanzees and humans.
Dr. Davila-Ross's study examined laughter in 59 chimpanzees living in four groups in the chimpanzee sanctuary Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage in Zambia. Two of the groups had been established for more than 14 years, and two groups had been living together for less than five years. All contained a mixture of ages and sexes. Nearly 500 play bouts were video recorded and in all cases, playing sessions lasted significantly longer when one playmate joined in the laughter of another.
Dr. Davila-Ross said: "Five million years ago the ancestors of apes and humans must have produced laughter as rather honest social responses. Since then, the ability to control laughter must have drastically increased, along with its adaptive advantages, which explains why laughter has become a highly sophisticated, ubiquitous tool of cooperation and social communication in humans."
Joining in with a playmate's laughter is not the same as fake laughter, which only humans seem capable of, she said.
Laughing is seen by evolutionary scientists to be present in all of the great apes. Human laughter is widely seen as an expression of joy but it can also be used in a wide range of situations. In contrast, great apes have only ever been documented to laugh during social play and tickling.
Dr. Davila-Ross said: "Selection pressures might have favoured individuals who use their laughter in socially distinctive ways.
"The phenomenon of a laugh triggered by the laughter of others seems to be deeply rooted in primate evolution. In humans such laugh responses appear early in development. Apes and monkeys also copy the expressions of other apes, such as yawning and play faces."
Laugh contagion, where laughter continuously spreads across many individuals, seems to be unique to humans. Apes always need to be part of the 'fun' in order to laugh so an ape would not start to laugh just by hearing laughter of apes playing nearby.
Dr. Davila-Ross said:"Future studies examining the social abilities linked to the use of other emotional expressions in monkeys and apes will help us better understand how pure emotional outbursts might have emerged into superior instruments of communication and to what extent the ability to manage them might have contributed to the origin of language."

Growing fruits and vegetables is a great way to save money on your grocery bill. Getting set up may take some time and a bit of a financial investment, but once you learn how to grow and preserve your own food, you will not believe the savings.
If you decide to plant fruit trees, it is important to remember that your return will not be immediate. Most fruit trees take five years before they really begin producing enough to store. This is not always the case, just the basic rule of thumb.
Vegetables on the other hand will produce in the same season. By using various planting techniques such as intercropping and two level planting you can get a large enough harvest from even a tiny piece of land to eat fresh produce as it becomes available and still have enough to preserve for winter use.
Growing your own herbs is another way to save money. Herbs can be expensive and the ones from the store are often old. There is no way to know when you buy bottled herbs how old they are. If you grow and dry your own, you will know. Herbs should be used up within a year for maximum taste. If you just want to use your herbs fresh when they are in season, there is nothing wrong with this either. For the price you would pay for one bottle of herbs you can have an entire plant that will grow, multiply and produce numerous bottles of herbs over many years.
Some vegetable seeds do better or worse based on what is growing near them. Here are vegetable combinations that tend to work well together.
*Beets grow well alongside cabbage, onion, broccoli and cauliflower.
*Carrots grow well alongside peas, turnips, cucumbers, or tomatoes seeds.
*Corn grows well with peas, beans, squash, and melon seeds.
Avoid planting the following vegetable seed varieties next to each other:
*Squash and radishes
*Peas and cauliflower
*Pole beans and beets
Warm season vegetable seeds are those that should not be planted until warm weather is truly established.
The following vegetables are considered warm season crops: beans, corn, eggplant, melon, okra, pepper, pumpkin, sweet potato, and tomato.
You should always read the back of your vegetable seed packet to ensure you are planting your seeds during their optimum growing period.
The layout of your vegetable garden is very important. You should plant vegetable seeds which produce tall crops on the northern side of your garden. This will keep your tall crops from shading your short crops.
When planning your rows, you should plant vegetable seed families together. Here is a list of vegetable families that will help you plan your garden's layout.
*Vine Crops: cucumbers, squash and melon
*Root Vegetables: turnips, carrots, beets, onions, garlic, leeks and carrots
*Legumes: peas, limas and beans
*Brassicas: broccoli, collards, kale, cabbage, and cauliflower
Succession planting ensures that your vegetable garden is brimming with a harvest the entire growing season. After you harvest one vegetable, you can replant one or more different vegetable seeds in its place. Here are a few succession planting ideas for you.
After you have harvested your leaf lettuce, you can plant squash or bush beans.
When your radish crop is nearing completion, you can replant the area with your cucumber seeds.
Follow up your cabbage crop by planting snap beans. When your snap beans are harvested, you can use the area a third time by planting your fall lettuce.
The key to producing a plentiful root crop is the soil preparation. These vegetable seeds need a loose, friable soil that is heavily worked.
Root crops prefer to be planted in raised beds and planted in blocks, rather than rows. You should till the bed where you will be planting the vegetables seeds to at least an eight inch depth. As you are tilling the bed, you should work organic matter into the soil.
When you order vegetable seeds, you may have the choice between hybrids and non-hybrids. Hybrid vegetable seeds tend to be more reliable because they have been produced in conditions that are controlled. This means they may be more resistant to diseases and more productive. Non-hyrbids are also known as “open-pollinated” varieties or heirloom varieties. Of the two, hybrids are thought to be the more trustworthy. However, there are gardeners who do insist on only using non-hybrids year after year.
There are many fall vegetables that can withstand a light, early frost. The key is to know which vegetables will be productive in a cool climate, and to purchase those that have the earliest maturing varieties. Beets, onions, rutabagas, spinach, turnips, leaf lettuce, kale and cabbage can all be considered a fall growing vegetable. Before you plant your fall vegetable seeds, you should water the site the day before you sow. As the days grow shorter, you should ensure that your seeds are able to soak up every minute of sunshine they will receive. You can do this by applying a water-soluble fertilizer weekly.
Around your long season vegetables (those that require 70 or more days to produce) you can plant cool season vegetables. The key is to plant your cool season vegetable seeds early, as they like the chilly, damp season. The following list of vegetable seeds is considered cool weather crops: cauliflower, brussels sprouts, parsnips, artichokes, beets, carrots, chard, lettuce, mustard greens, peas, radish and spinach. Be mindful that some cool season vegetable seeds do better when planted in a flat first, then transplanted into the garden. These vegetable seeds include cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli.
Corn does best when it is planted where it will receive a full day of sun. When planting, you should make sure the area is away from trees or buildings which could cast a shadow over your garden.
Corn seeds should be planted at least 10 inches apart in a trench. When the vegetable seeds start to sprout and grow, you should hill up the soil around it. This will support the plant as it grows, and it also keeps weed at bay.
You should plant your sweet corn in blocks. It is best to have at least four rows per block as this will help with pollination.
It is important that carrot seeds are planted in a deeply worked soil that drains well. Raised beds are the choice of many as the soil is generally loose and stone-free. The reason this vegetable seed needs such well worked soil is because of the taproot. If it meets an obstacle, such as a rock or clay soil, it will either quit growing or branch off.
You should plant carrot seeds about two weeks before the last expected frost. When planting, you should try to place them a half inch apart. You can make successive plantings every three weeks thru midsummer.
You should only buy your vegetable seeds from reputable gardening companies. These businesses are credible – and you can be assured that their seeds have undergone research and trials.
Vegetable seeds are living organisms and they do have a shelf life. Under the law, vegetable seed packets are required to state their intended growing season. Do not fall prey to someone peddling old seeds.
You should purchase your vegetable seeds early -- as the supply of popular vegetable seeds can be stripped bare when the planting season finally arrives. When you order your seeds early, you can group them together by their growing season using rubber bands. You should group your vegetable seeds into three categories: 1) Seeds that should be planted as soon as the ground is ready. 2) Seeds that should be planted two to three weeks before the frost-free date in your growing area. 3) Seeds that should not be planted until all frost danger has passed. Seeds will keep until planting time, especially those that are purchased through reputable companies – as their seeds are generally packaged in moisture vapor packets.
The squash family consists of many plants including the melons, cucumbers, pumpkins and squashes. While each vegetable is different, the vegetable seeds generally like the same culture.
This crop does not like being transplanted. You should sow these vegetable seeds directly into the ground in which they will remain throughout the season. Most vine crops do well when planted in mounds. The mounds can be one to two feet in diameter – although you should allow more room for larger squashes and pumpkins.
Treated vegetable seeds are seeds that have been coated with a chemical fungicide which protects them from disease. This protection lasts from planting time until the sprout emerges from the ground. Treated vegetable seeds are fast becoming the choice of many in both the small-scale and commercial sectors.
You should keep in mind that the chemicals used on the vegetable seeds contains dyes. People and animals should not nibble on the seeds.
Whether you're a beginning vegetable gardener or one with a lot of experience, the valuable lesson you can learn about replanting your vegetable garden year after year, is the importance of crop rotation. Many of the diseases that affect plants lie dormant in the soil. During the growing season, while vegetables are growing in the ground, or in raised beds, the plants leach nutrients from the soil. This occurs naturally, and leads to the need for fertilizers.
Soil Nutrient Depletion
When the soil loses nutrients, and those aren't replaced by things such as green manure or compost, the soil becomes more susceptible to diseases. It's kind of like the things that happen to people to compromise their immune systems. The healthier the quality of the soil, the more capable it is of fighting off disease spreading insects, or worse, diseases that lie dormant in the soil.
Why Rotate Crops
The purpose of crop rotation is two-fold. On one hand, it prevents the soil from getting more and more depleted of nutrients, something that leads to severe soil erosion. Soil erosion compromises the integrity of top soil, potentially contaminating nearby water sources, and turning into dust producing dust storms when winds are exceedingly strong. The Dust Bowl of the 1930's affected the entire state, but the most severe damage occurred in the panhandle area. Drought and overuse of the land were the chief causes of this because cattle grazed on the land where grass had kept top soil in place. The more people plant the same crop in the same place, the greater the likelihood that the same thing could happen again.
The Irish Potato Famine was initially caused by an airborne fungus that traveled to the United Kingdom from Mexico. The fact that the poor Irish peasant farmers continued to plant potatoes just caused the fungus to spread, ultimately resulting in a famine that killed many thousands of people from typhus and other diseases. By continuing to plant potatoes after the initial fungus outbreak, the farmers insured that the fungus would continue to spread.
What is Crop Rotation?
Crop rotation simply means planting different vegetables in different places year after year. It requires that gardeners remember where different vegetables were planted each year. Garden design software or a simple pencil and paper drawing can accomplish this. Ideally, you should avoid planting the same types of vegetables in the same place. In other words, if you plant butternut squash in a certain location, you wouldn't want to plant other types of squash there. Likewise, it would be wise not to plant vegetables that grow on vines that run along the ground there.
Plan your garden so that vegetables that are more sensitive to the hottest part of the sun can be protected by the foliage of other plants. When planting, allow enough space that plants won't touch or create concealed places where insects can nest or diseases can lie dormant. Remove diseased plant debris as soon as you discover it, and keep your garden weeded. All of these things will prevent the development and spread of diseases and prevent insects from laying eggs there and spreading disease as they travel between plants.

From 1945 to 1948, 18 other students and teachers were arrested or abducted, many gone for weeks, and some taken to the Soviet Union and executed.
Alexander von Humboldt, brother of the founder William, promoted the new learning.
The university is known worldwide for pioneering the Humboldtian model of higher education, which has strongly influenced other European and Western universities, and the university has been widely called "the mother of all modern universities." The Humboldt University of Berlin has been associated with 41 Nobel Prize winners and is considered one of the best universities in Europe as well as one of the most prestigious universities in the world for arts and humanities.
It was widely regarded as the world's preeminent university for the natural sciences during the 19th and early 20th century, and is linked to major breakthroughs in physics and other sciences by its professors such as Albert Einstein.
After 1990 the name was retained due to its uncontroversial and non-communist nature, and because it had been chosen by the university itself as an act of resistance against naming the university after a communist leader.
After the German reunification, the university was radically restructured and all employees were terminated and their positions readvertised.Students and scholars and political opponents of Nazis were ejected from the university and often deported.

If you’re a beginning investor, you have likely been asked to consider what asset classes you’re interested in putting your money in, and are probably wondering what they are—and what difference it makes. Well, have a seat, because asset class is now in session.
A “class” refers to a set of items that have characteristics in common—think of a class of third graders or a certain class of car. Therefore an asset class is a way to categorize different types of investments with similarities: Each item in a given asset class is going to react in a similar way to financial fluctuations, but differently from the other asset classes. For example, as a large generalization, in a hot economy, most stocks go up, but bond prices go down. That’s because different asset classes react to market conditions differently, as we will explore.
When you invest in a certain asset class, you are putting your money into that type of investment, each of which has pros and cons depending on your investment strategy.
Historically there have been three main types of asset classes:
Also known as equities, buying a stock means that you are buying a share of that company. In other words, when you buy a stock you own a piece of a specific company, which means that its value will rise or fall based on that company’s performance—or more accurately, investors’ perception of that company, which is really what drives a stock to go up or down. As an asset class, stocks are considered to offer greater risk than some other ones, like bonds, but also have the potential to offer a higher return. Stocks typically are classified as “large cap” (those with market capitalizations above $10 billion) or “small cap,” with large cap considered the more stable.
Also called fixed income products, bonds are a loan you offer an issuer, basically an IOU. While most people think of government bonds, such as treasuries issued by the U.S. government, or municipal bonds from states and cities, companies also issue their own corporate bonds. Though bonds are typically considered a safer investment, this asset class has variables as well, from the lower risk U.S. bonds to corporate bonds which offer greater risk (and thus, again, greater potential reward). Remember, of course, that no investment is “safe,” per se—there is always a level of risk.
This isn’t just the cash you yourself have on hand. It refers to short-term loans, typically less than a year, which pay regular interest. This asset class usually takes the form of money market instruments like certificates of deposit (CDs) or promissory notes. These represent the lowest-risk (and lowest-return) investment of any, other than actual cash, and are liquid, meaning which you can tap their value as needed. Their benefit as an asset class is that they provide safety, such as for a very short-term need like an emergency fund, while still offering a better return than you’d get with your money sitting in your bank account.
While those are the “big three” asset classes, as investing has grown more complex, newer types of investments have emerged that are now also considered discrete asset classes, such as:
The most common types of real estate are residential, commercial, retail and industrial, all of which can be their own investment vehicles, but are all considered part of the same asset class. If you don’t want to (or can’t afford to) own an entire office building or apartment complex, you can invest in real-estate investment trusts (REITs), which means you are buying shares of a corporation that owns these properties.
This asset class refers to raw materials that create other products. Common commodity investments include metals, like gold and silver; agricultural products, like grain or cattle; and energy, like natural gas and oil.
One of the newest and thus “emerging” asset classes, cryptocurrency is still a bit of an unknown in the investing world. While most people think specifically of “Bitcoin,” there are thousands of other cryptocurrencies, both large and small. For example, you may have heard of Ethereum or Litecoin, and even Facebook has made an attempt to launch its own product. Cryptocurrency is essentially a digital token, esteemed because it is free of government regulation. When ranking asset classes, this likely would be one of the riskier ones, since so little is yet known about how cryptocurrency might react in a crisis.
Options are great for everything, and certainly for investment portfolios. That’s because investors require a diverse range of investment vehicles that allow them to reach their goals. Asset classes each accomplish different goals that can align with the goal of your portfolio.
For example, one factor investors should consider is their risk tolerance, which means whether they are equipped to endure the ups and downs of the stock market, either financially or emotionally.
Another is their time horizon, which refers to how long investors have until they need the money. For example, a 20-something who is just starting to save for their future retirement has a long time horizon, while someone who is nearing retirement has one that is short.
Your risk tolerance and time horizon combine to give you insight into whether you should create an aggressive or conservative portfolio, and that will help dictate which asset classes should be included. While many asset classes offer a variety of options that could suit an investor on either end of the spectrum (for example, blue-chip stocks can be more stable and thus conservative, compared with the more aggressive nature of emerging tech company stocks), there are other asset classes, such as bonds, that tend to lean toward a specific propensity, in this case, a more conservative asset class.
The best investment products are the ones that suit an investor’s individual goals and take into account their risk tolerance and time horizon. But the important thing to remember is to ensure that your portfolio is diversified—in other words, it contains a broad range of asset classes. That provides a measure of safety in different market conditions, as each asset class will respond to the variables differently. In addition, diversity allows you to benefit from the various advantages of each type of asset class.
While you can choose to purchase individual stocks or bonds as a way to diversify your portfolio, you also can simplify your strategy by investing in funds, which by their nature already include an element of diversification. That’s because a fund is essentially a variety of securities. Mutual funds are actively managed by an investment professional who aims to beat the market by buying and selling at just the right time, while index funds are designed to mirror the market, generating earnings that equal the returns of a stock market index, such as the Dow or the S&P 500. Another type of fund to consider is an exchange-traded fund, or ETF, which is a “basket” of investments that trades on the stock market just like a stock.
In fact, ETFs are our favored investment vehicle at Acorns that we use to build our portfolios. We make sure to include a range of asset classes, grouped according to your needs—from conservative to aggressive. Acorns investment portfolios provide exposure to a diverse array of asset classes, which might include:
Large company stocks
Small company stocks
Given the mix of the ETFs that Acorns includes in its portfolios, investors have exposure to thousands of stocks and bonds, thus checking every box in the diversification category, while still allowing investors to choose the investment strategy that’s right for them.
And when it comes right down to it, that’s the secret sauce of asset classes. Each investor should choose a combination that reflects their needs at any given time, taking care to prioritize diversification in order to achieve the best possible financial outcome.

Cadmium is often found as part of small particles present in air. You cannot tell by smell or taste that cadmium is present in air or water, because it does not have any definite taste or odor.
Cadmium is a toxic metal commonly found in industrial workplaces, particularly where any ore is being processed or smelted. Most cadmium used the U.S. is extracted during the production of other metals such as zinc, lead, or copper.
Due to its low permissible exposure limit (PEL), overexposures may occur even in situations where trace quantities of cadmium are found in the parent ore or smelter dust. Cadmium is used extensively in electroplating, although the nature of the operation does not generally lead to overexposures. Several deaths from acute exposure have occurred among welders who have unsuspectingly welded on cadmium-containing alloys or worked with silver solders. Cadmium is also found in some industrial paints and may represent a hazard when sprayed. Operations involving removal of cadmium paints by scraping or blasting may similarly pose a significant hazard. Cadmium is also present in the manufacture of some types of batteries. Cadmium emits a characteristic brown fume (CdO) upon heating, which is relatively non-irritating, and thus does not alarm the exposed individual.
Breathing high levels of cadmium severely damages the lungs and can cause death. Eating food or drinking water with very high levels severely irritates the stomach, leading to vomiting and diarrhea. Long-term exposure to lower levels of cadmium in air, food, or water leads to a buildup of cadmium in the kidneys and possible kidney disease. Other long-term effects are lung damage and fragile bones.

Toe-in (-) & Toe-out (+) 'Toe' is the term given to the left-right alignment of the front wheels relative to each other. Toe-in is where the front edges of the wheels are closer together than the rear, and toe-out is the opposite.
Toe-in counteracts the tendency for the wheels to toe-out under power, like hard acceleration or at motorway speeds (where toe-in disappears). Toe-out counteracts the tendency for the front wheels to toe-in when turning at motorway speeds.
A typical symptom of too much toe-in will be excessive wear and feathering on the outer edges of the tire tread section.
Similarly, too much toe-out will cause the same feathering wear patterns on the inner edges of the tread pattern.
Move cursor and hold over the red or blue arrow to see respective tire wear
Camber Camber is the tilt of the top of a wheel inwards or outwards (negative or positive). Proper camber (along with toe and caster) make sure that the tire tread surface is as flat as possible on the road surface. If your camber is out, you'll get tire wear. Too much negative camber (wheels tilt inwards) causes tread and tire wear on the inside edge of the tire. Consequently, too much positive camber causes wear on the outside edge. Negative camber is what counteracts the tendency of the inside wheel during a turn to lean out from the center of the vehicle. 0 or Negative camber is almost always desired. Positive camber would create handling problems.The technical reason for this is because when the tires on the inside of the turn have negative camber, they will tend to go toward 0 camber, using the contact patch more efficiently during the turn. If the tires had positive camber, during a turn, the inside wheels would tend to even more positive camber, compromising the efficiency of the contact patch because the tire would effectively only be riding on its outer edge.
Move cursor and hold over the red or blue arrow to seerespective tire wear
Over- / Under-Inflation
Another possible reason for abnormal tread wear is incorrect inflation.
Tires should be inflated as per the car manufacturers instructions. If the tire is under-inflated the outer sides of the tread wear off faster.
Also when the tire is under-inflated it generates excess of heat and may explode at high speeds.
Similarly, if the tire is over-inflated, the center part of the tread wears off faster.
In this case the contact patch of tire with the surface of the road is not sufficient and the stability of the car is decreased.

“You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.” ~ Paulo Coelho
Risk is an important ingredient of living life. Of truly living it, not simply existing.
It makes everything worthwhile and it shows us that we can. Yes, sometimes it is as scary as hell to just do it, but it always pays off.
Even if you think you have failed, this is never true. You have always gained much more than you can ever think of. You have gained experience, you have gained confidence (you have the proof you can despite all the fears). And just like anything in life, the rule of compounding, or attraction, works here.
The more you do something, the more of it you can do. So if you were brave once, you would remember it. And that memory will give you the strength to be brave again. And then again and again. Until you are not afraid of taking risks anymore. Sure, some fears will always be there to draw you back but it will be easier for you to defeat it if you have done it before. You will know how, you will know it’s possible.
I believe that risking is an essential skill to develop. Moving away from your comfort zone is uncomfortable, clearly. But if you dare to do it, you will see it was totally worth it. Sometimes we need to keep going in the dark, withholding the hope and faith that we shall find light. It is never certain what tomorrow may bring so don’t plan too much and don’t burden it with expectations. Just take that step. Because once we look back we are almost always sorry for what we didn’t do, not for what we did.
Stop asking yourself what if, and find out. You will be glad you did. After all, the comfort zone is not as comfortable as it may first appear. Think of it, we all want to escape it, we all dream of adventures and something out-of-routine. And fortunately, the power to achieve this lies within us. We just have to risk jumping despite the fear of the fall because we may land right down on our dreams.
Of course, this is a difficult job. Humans, especially nowadays, are used to be in search of security. We have become averse to changes. We prefer to go back to the same old every time, simply because we are afraid of the new.
In the past, when people were nomads, changes were inevitable yet people knew the value of simple pleasures which we have long forgotten. Or at least the most part. In our attempts to escape change we are fighting nature’s law.
In a world where nothing is constant, we are constantly trying to make it such. No surprise that we often end up disappointed. Nothing is meant to last. Not me, not you, not even the Universe. But let me make a correction here. Nothing is meant to last the SAME. Maybe there is no time, maybe you will get a next life but nothing will ever be the same. Nothing.
When I was younger, watching ice skating with my dad, I was always puzzled when he said “hey, he/she knows how to fall” addressing some athlete’s close encounter with the ground. For a girl who is tripping most of the time and falling half of it, I was wondering not just how they do it but also why. In the end, who would want to practice falling? It’s painful and… shouldn’t they be practicing not falling? Sport is all about winning, I thought then, so why are they training how to fail?
Little by little, it became clear to me. If you know how to fall, it is less painful. And if it is less painful then you are less scared of it. And if you are less scared, you are more willing to give it all. All of yourself. When you know exactly what it means to be down, you are no longer afraid to aim for the top. And if you are not afraid to aim for the top, well, you might actually reach it.
So the next time you think the risk has brought you only pain and disappointment think again. If nothing else, it has taught you how to fall. It has shown you that you can survive the pain and that you can overcome the disappointment. It has proven you are strong enough and you can get up after the fall.
So what is there to be afraid of?
The only thing that should scare you are the missed opportunities, the lost chances. This is much much scarier than jumping and finding yourself on the ground. Because you will stay on the ground forever, even though deep down you know you can fly.
Don’t wait, start today, start small. Learn how to fall, so that it would not be too painful.
Once you become stronger, you will be able to tolerate greater pain and respectively, greater risk. And once you get to tolerate greater risks, you will face greater returns. And greater falls, of course. But if you trained yourself in the art of falling you will not end up shattered on the ground. You will simply get up, dust off and give it another try.

Beach and Dune Stabilization
with Sand Fencing and Vegetation
Dune restoration usually involves a combination of Marram grass planting and the placement of sand fencing. The fencing is used as a temporary sand barrier until the grasses become established.
Mats and Netting
Mats and netting are also techniques that have been used for protecting bare sand surfaces. Coarse netting and mats have been used in protecting dunes while transplanted dune grasses are establishing (Dahl, 1975). This technique does protect the sand surface but does not collect much sand, so the best use of netting and mats is to protect new seedlings (Woodhouse, 1978).
Brush is another effective but temporary stabilizer of dune sites when placed over bare sand (Woodhouse, 1978). This method is not commonly used though, since it has high labor requirements and it interferes with subsequent planting (Woodhouse, 1978). Use of this method should be limited to small blowout areas.
The most effective method of stabilizing coastal dunes is through the use of vegetation (Woodhouse, 1978). In many cases, vegetation is the least expensive, most durable, most aesthetically pleasing, and only self-repairing technique available (Woodhouse, 1978).
Dune plants are especially effective at stopping and holding wind-borne sand. Their growth produces surface roughness which decreases the wind velocity near the ground, reducing wind erosion at the sand surface. Also, the plant stems and leaves above the sand surface greatly interfere with sand movement by saltation and surface creep (Woodhouse, 1978).
As the grass fills and becomes buried, sand spills farther and farther into the interior of the stand of dune grass. A cover of dune plants tends to regenerate trapping capacity by growth even as it fills because the plants are stimulated to grow by the deposition of sand around them.
The coastal environment is typically harsh for plant growth: for plants to be successfully established, they must have special adaptation characteristics that allow them to survive such a harsh environment. These plants must be able to tolerate rapid sand accumulation, flooding, sandblast, wind and water erosion, wide temperature fluctuations, drought, and low nutrient levels.
Sand fences slow sand movement by reducing the wind velocity in their immediate vicinity. While sand fences are very effective in trapping windblown sand, once they are filled they have little or no further effect on sand movement (Woodhouse, 1978).
However, the advantage of sand fences is that they can be installed during any season and they are fully effective as sand traps as soon as they are installed (Woodhouse, 1978). Research on the use of snow fences has demonstrated that a porosity ratio of 0.8:1 (40%) is the most effective (Carter, 1988). Typically commercial snow fencing has a 50% porosity, and works quite well in stabilization projects along Lake Huron.
Snow fencing is usually an interim measure. Once dune vegetation has become established, the need for snow fencing is substantially reduced.
American or Marram grass, (Ammophila breviligulata) is perhaps the most effective pioneer colonizer in most areas along Lake Huron. While it has been used extensively in dune restoration projects along Lake Huron, sourcing the plant in close proximity to the restoration site is important to avoid contaminating genetic make-up of endemic plants by importing plants from a large distance from the site. Marram grass from the Pinery/Ipperwash area is genetically different from the Marram grass found at Southampton, as an example.
There are various types of dune vegetation, and careful consideration should be made concerning the type of vegetation that will be used at a particular restoration site. Certain plants do well in certain areas, while others are invasive and may overtake established plants. By contacting the Coastal Centre, trained staff are available for technical consultations. It should be noted that dune restoration is not possible in all locations along Lake Huron.
Check with the Coastal Centre before beginning this type of project. Centre staff can make an evaluation of the site to determine whether or not conditions are appropriate for dune restoration, and recommend techniques to enhance the project’s likelihood of success.

We, people, have a funny attitude towards the water, although it’s said to be the source of life. In the driest lands, there are wars being fought for any spring or artesian well. But at the same time, the western world acts like it’s mocking the nature by not using its fresh fluid sources and just forgets about the proper hydration.
It all seems like a real modern world challenge…but the good thing is that we can conqueer it! 😉 Let’s see, how …
Proper Hydration Means More than Drinking Water
Living healthy is one of the greatest challenges of the modern world. Out of all, the proper hydration is much more complex than it may seem at the first sight. Most people think it’s only about drinking water, tea, or any other fluid. But it’s not like that at all – being properly hydrated actually means to have body-fluids in balance that can offer our cells, organs, and systems everything they need for their functioning.
Hydration means providing the optimal amount of water, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other essential nutrients that make us healthy and strong, physically and psychologically. Opposite to that, dehydration means that all these substances are not in balance – whether we consume too little or too much water, too little essential nutrients or maybe even superabundance of them.
In order to feel well, one has to take the proper hydration – meaning consumption of enough fluids AND essential nutrients – very seriously.
How Dehydration Affects Our Physical and Psychological Wellbeing
Scientists have proven that dehydration can seriously affect our health. Not only that consuming too little water can have a bad impact on our appearance (dry and pale skin, cracked lips …), it can also lower our performance. And, did you know that the short-term health effects of dehydration can present themselves as delirium, constipation, headaches, tiredness, or even lower blood pressure?
Thus, when speaking about the wellbeing at the workplace, we have to understand that with proper hydration, your employees will not only be able to feel, but also perform better. Because – if I should speak for myself and some of my friends who realised it too – when I am busy with work and excited about a new project, I totally forget to drink. Unless I keep my fluid container at the reach of my hand. And, even worse, when I have a not-so-healthy drink at the reach of my hand, I’ll just have it, because it is so convenient!
Effect of Changing Hydration Habits to Increase the Wellbeing at the Workplace
In order to increase my wellbeing, I decided to replace any handy energy or sugary drinks – that seem great quick-fixes – with water, unsweetened tea or even drinks that have nutrients added – so something that might actually help me feel better in the long term. And I must say that the effect of doing so is amazing.
But not only that – lately I have also noticed that drinkig water is “contagious”. Meaning, when I get myself a glass of water, there are colleagues that get reminded about it, too. So as a team member or a leader I am more than happy to see that just by being myself working on my own wellbeing, I can help other people work on their own. Just as I was describing in one of my prevous posts on authentic leadership.
To conclude in spirit of empowerment and creation of a better tomorrow, I warmly recommend you to take on a challenge of proper hydration as well. And if you need any ideas how to help your employees to make sure to hydrate well, you can always brainstorm them with me. 🙂

Piotr Ilyitch (Pyotr Il'yich) Tchaikovsky (May 7, 1840 - November 6, 1893) was born in Kamsko-Votkinsk, in the western Ural Vyatka province of Russia. He studied law in St. Petersburg and took music classes at the St. Petersburg Conservatory. There his teachers included the Russian composer and pianist Anton Rubinstein, from whom Tchaikovsky subsequently took advanced instruction in orchestration. In 1866 the composer-pianist Nicholas Rubinstein, Anton's brother, obtained for Tchaikovsky the post of teacher of harmony at the Moscow Conservatory. There the young composer met the dramatist Aleksandr Nikolayevich Ostrovsky, who wrote the libretto for Tchaikovsky's first opera, The Voyevoda (1868). From this period also date his operas Undine (1869) and The Oprichnik (1872), the Piano Concerto #1 in B Flat minor (1875), the symphonies #1 (called "Winter Dreams", 1868), #2 (1873, subsequently revised and titled "Little Russian"), and #3 (1875), and the overture Romeo and Juliet (1870). The first Piano Concerto was dedicated originally to Nicholas Rubinstein, who pronounced it unplayable. Deeply injured, Tchaikovsky made extensive alterations in the work and dedicated it instead to the German pianist Hans Guido von Bulow, who rewarded the courtesy by performing the concerto on the occasion of his first concert tour of the United States (1875-76). Rubinstein later acknowledged the merit of the revised composition and made it a part of his own repertoire. Well known for its dramatic first movement and skillful use of folk-like melodies, it subsequently became one of the most frequently played of all piano concertos.
In 1876 Tchaikovsky became acquainted with Madam Nadejda von Meck, a wealthy widow, whose enthusiasm for the composer's music led her to give him an annual allowance of 600 pounds. Fourteen years later, however, Madame von Meck, believing herself financially ruined, abruptly terminated the subsidy. Although Tchaikovsky's other sources of income were by then adequate to sustain him, he was wounded by the sudden defection of his patron without apparent cause, and he never forgave her. The period of his connection with Madame von Meck was one of rich productivity for Tchaikovsky. To this time belong the operas Eugene Onegin (1878), The Maid of Orleans (1879), Mazeppa (1883) and The Sorceress (1887), the ballets Swan Lake (1876) and The Sleeping Beauty (1889), the Rococo Variations for Cello & Orchestra (1876), the Violin Concerto in D Major (1878), the orchestral works Marche Slave (1876), Francesca da Rimini (1876), Symphony #4 in F minor (1877), the overture The Year 1812 (1880), Capriccio Italien (1880), Serenade for string orchestra (1880), Manfred symphony (1885), Symphony #5 in E minor (1888), the fantasy overture Hamlet (1885) and numerous songs. Meanwhile, in 1877, Tchaikovsky, perhaps hoping to still the sexual identity conflicts, had married Antonina Milyukova, a music student at the Moscow Conservatory who had written to the composer declaring her love for him. The marriage was unhappy from the outset, and the couple soon separated.
From 1887 to 1891 Tchaikovsky made several highly successful concert tours, conducting his own works before large, enthusiastic audiences in the major cities of Europe and the U.S. He composed one of his finest operas, The Queen of Spades, in 1890. Early in 1893 the composer began work on his Symphony #6 in B minor, subsequently titled Pathétique by his brother Modest. The first performance of the work, given at St. Petersburg on October 28, 1893, under the composer's direction, was indifferently received. Nine days later, Tchaikovsky died – of cholera, according to official records. Modern scholarship, however, is inclined to credit the story that he committed suicide at the prompting of a group of former law school classmates, who feared scandal because an aristocrat had complained to the czar about Tchaikovsky's homosexuality.
Many Tchaikovsky compositions – among them The Nutcracker (ballet and suite, 1891-92), the Piano Concerto #2 in G Major (1880), the String Quartet #3 in E Flat minor (1876), and the Trio in A minor for Violin, Cello, and Piano (1882) – have remained popular with concertgoers. His most popular works are characterized by richly melodic passages in which sections suggestive of profound melancholy frequently alternate with dance-like movements derived from folk music. Like his contemporary, the Russian composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakoff, Tchaikovsky was an exceptionally gifted orchestrator; his ballet scores in particular contain many striking effects of orchestral coloration. His symphonic works, popular for their melodic content, are also strong (and often unappreciated) in their abstract thematic development. In his best operas, such as Eugene Onegin and The Queen of Spades, he used highly suggestive melodic passages to depict a dramatic situation concisely and with poignant effect. His ballets, notably Swan Lake and The Sleeping Beauty, have never been surpassed for their melodic intensity and instrumental brilliance. Composed in close collaboration with the choreographer Marius Petipa, they represent virtually the first use of serious dramatic music for the dance since the operatic ballet of the German composer Christoph Willibald Gluck. Tchaikovsky also extended the range of the symphonic poem, and his works in this genre, including Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet, are notable for their richly melodic evocation of the moods of the literary works on which they are based.

As an Internet developer, it is important to know the mechanics of the Internet. You need to understand about all the components and factors involved in accessing the Internet.
This module introduces you to the hardware and software you need to access the Internet. It also introduces you to setting up essential elements of the infrastructure such as your desktop, browser, and email.
You will round out your learning with instruction on various Internet services and the clients that enable them.
You will find learning the information almost as simple as learning your ABCs.
After completing this module, you will be able to:
- Evaluate the hardware and software you need to access the Internet
- Describe how to configure a desktop computer to access the Internet
- Explain how to optimize a browser for performance
- Explain how to configure a browser for cookies and Active X
- Describe which protocols to use for sending and receiving email
- Define the purpose and types of MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions)
In the next lesson, you will learn about the three critical components of the Internet.
The Internet has grown into a loose collection of individual networks and computer systems, all operating according to agreed-upon network protocols, allowing the worldwide transfer of information between systems built
on a variety of operating platforms. No individual, company, agency, or institution owns the Internet. It is a distributed system of interconnected computers and networks. This means that no single primary or main computer is driving the internet. Rather, it is an electronic global
"neighborhood". Some networks are bigger and faster than others, but each one arranges its own network infrastructure.
The origins of the internet can be found in the military culture of the cold war, the Internet's original ancestor was established at the (ARPA) Advanced Research Projects Agency of the U.S. Department of Defense. It was called ARPANET and was created out of the need for a robust, redundant system capable of carrying critical military data throughout a relatively small network of then-powerful computers. Serving as a critical element of military preparedness and civil defense, ARPANET was designed to function regardless
of any kind of network disruption such as a nuclear attack. The original ARPANET has been replaced by a succession of bigger, faster, more powerful networked systems, leading to the modern Internet. Sensing the potential of distributed computing for science discovery and application, the National Science Foundation created a network dedicated to academic research and development based on the ARPA's Internet protocol. Operating from a system of regional computing systems connected by an Internet backbone
, the Internet offered researchers immediate access to colleagues and files throughout the world.
Internet marketing is the fastest growing and most exciting branch of marketing today. As the world becomes ever more connected, keeping up with developments and trends is vital for marketers trying to reach new audiences. Technology and software are changing at such a high rate that it seems almost impossible to keep up with trends. Products and services are evolving and adapting to the online sphere. The web is constantly shifting, growing and changing.
How do savvy internet marketers cope with all this? They harness the power of the web and its myriad tools for their own needs.
They find unique and personal ways to interact with customers online. They plan, organize, implement and measure complex internet-wide strategies seamlessly. Most importantly, they never stop learning, growing and adapting themselves.

Celebrating poet Anne Spencer
The life of Anne Spencer—poet, librarian, social activist and only the second African American poet to be included in the Norton Anthology of Modern Poetry (1973)—will be celebrated on February 4 at Virginia University of Lynchburg (the former Virginia Theological Seminary and College), with a screening of “Annie’s Pencil,” a film based on a play about the poet’s life written by her granddaughter, playwright Shaun Spencer Hester.
“She lived a very vibrant life and knew fascinating people,” explains Hester, “but I wanted the play to show she was just an ordinary person who accomplished remarkable things.”
Spencer was born in 1882 in Henry County, and moved to Lynchburg in 1893 to attend the Virginia Theological Seminary and College. She later met and married Edward Spencer, Lynchburg’s first parcel postman, and raised three children: Bethel, Alroy and Chauncey (an aviator who initiated the training program that produced the Tuskegee Airmen). Spencer worked as a teacher and a librarian, and helped to establish the first Lynchburg chapter of the NAACP. From her home—and beloved garden, Edenkraal—on Pierce Street, now a National Historic Landmark, Spencer penned poems that captured the attention of literary heavyweight and activist James Weldon Johnson. He encouraged her to submit her work to literary journals of the day such as the NAACP journal, The Crisis.
According to Nina Salmon, assistant professor of English at Lynchburg College and the author of Anne Spencer: “Ah, how poets sing and die!”, Spencer wrote “because the poems emerged, or needed to emerge. ” Adds Salmon: “That she was a published poet was more an accident of time and place than it was a desire on her part to see her work reach a wider audience.” But her work did reach a larger audience and her salon became a gathering place for some of the brightest stars of the Harlem Renaissance—the black literary movement of the 1920s—and beyond, including Langston Hughes, Thurgood Marshall, W. E. B. DuBois and Martin Luther King Jr.
Though Spencer’s poetry addressed a wide range of subjects she often eschewed political topics to write about nature. Before her death in 1975, Spencer told her biographer J. Lee Greene, “I write about some of the things I love. But have no civilized articulation for the things I hate.”

Play idea: Physically active play – Korikori
Children love moving and movement, and being physically active is an important part of everyday life.
|Level of compliance||Main audience||Other|
Children learn through play. Below is some information about a play idea for your children.
Finding ways every day for children to use large and small muscles allows them to gain increasing control over their bodies. Physical activity promotes children’s mental and emotional health as well as their physical well-being.
Physically active play can help children to
- develop large muscles, strength and balance
- develop flexibility and coordination including hand–eye coordination
- develop skills such as throwing, catching, hopping, skipping, climbing and balancing
- develop an awareness of space, such as over/under, in front/behind, on top/beneath, inside/outside
- develop mathematical concepts such as long/short, big/small, wide/narrow
- be confident in controlling their bodies and learn their limits
- learn to cooperate and share
- understand that physical activity is fun and can release tension.
Adults can support children by
- making sure spaces are safe and free from obstructions
- making sure the equipment is safe, well maintained and positioned safely
- letting them play around with equipment in their own way and at their own pace
- joining in and providing encouragement, advice, support and demonstrations as needed e.g different ways to land or throw a ball
- encouraging them to join in by taking turns
- modelling language that goes with the play
- making sure physical play resources and opportunities are available at all times.
Providing for physical activity
Being physically active can happen inside or out.
Just remember that safety comes first, so make sure there is enough space for children to be physically active without the risk of hurting other children.
If children are climbing, swinging, sliding or jumping, also make sure there’s enough soft fall cushioning on the floor for a safe landing.
Ideas for natural resources
Anything that allows for running, balancing, swinging, crawling, stepping, climbing, catching, throwing, pushing, pulling, hopping, skipping, jumping, rolling, crouching or twirling.
Some examples are:
- skipping ropes
- ribbons or scarves
- bean bags
- balancing boards
- slides and other fixed equipment
- boxes, planks and ladders
- other junk material
Provide children with waterproof overalls, umbrellas and gumboots so they can play outside on wet days.
Physically active play supports learning across all strands of Te Whāriki. In particular, it supports the Exploration strand, where children gain confidence in and control of their bodies.
They develop increasing knowledge about how to keep physically healthy.
This play idea has been developed for playgroups. Feel free to use it at other types of ECE service, but make sure you're still following the regulations and licensing criteria that apply to your service type. Parents may also find this information useful.

Pattern Languages of Program Design 4:
Software patterns are reusable, higher-order designs that recur repeatedly across applications. Pattern Languages of Program Design 4 offers a wide variety of these forms from different areas of computing. Especially valuable to C++ or Java programmers, but useful to anyone who designs software for a living, this book is a worthy choice containing dozens of designs that you can incorporate into your own projects.
Arranged in 23 chapters, each containing multiple patterns, the text contains well over 100 software setups on a wide variety of topics. Standout sections here include a compilation of C++ idioms by James Coplien, which are derived from his well-known Advanced C++ Programming Styles and Idioms, a book that helped inspire early pattern-makers. A chapter on managing limited memory provides tips for working with embedded systems on today's handheld devices. Those with a background in engineering will also appreciate the catalog of patterns for finite state machines (FSMs).
Designers have the tendency to make patterns out of what is familiar to most everyone. Several chapters look at patterns used on Web sites (for example, navigation bars) and in wiring together multimedia content. The book also groups management patterns, some of which can be used for improving customer relations and managing software development. The last section, surely the most entertaining, is devoted to software management and describes why most code, over time, devolves into a "Big Ball of Mud."
There is certainly a lot to take away for any designer who reads this book. It is a particularly rich collection of recently "discovered" patterns that will get you thinking about reusable design in your own software. --Richard Dragan
Topics covered: Object-oriented software design patterns, C++ idioms, patterns for managing limited memory, patterns for Smalltalk prototyping, patterns for history and time, security patterns, report patterns, feature extraction patterns, finite state machine (FSM) patterns, patterns for Web sites and multimedia systems, patterns for reusable multimedia artifacts, patterns for telecommunications, patterns for choosing publishable papers for conferences, patterns from writers' workshops, customer interaction patterns, patterns for better software project management.

Level B2 corresponds to independent users of the language, i.e. those who have the necessary fluency to communicate without effort with native speakers. It is important to bear in mind that the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFRL) is the system that defines and explains the different levels of oral and written expression and comprehension for languages such as English. It consists of 6 levels of reference: three blocks (A or basic user, B or independent user and C or proficient user), which are in turn divided into two sublevels, 1 and 2.
Skills at level B2
One of the questions you might ask yourself when you read this information is, what language competences characterise a person who can prove they have a level B2 in English?
The CEFRL specifies that students at this level should be able to:
- understand the main ideas of complex text on both concrete and abstract topics, including technical discussions in their field of specialization
- interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party
- produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects and explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options.

In today’s world, geographic borders and barriers are constantly being erased. Our planet’s future hinges on the cultural competence of all its inhabitants, at a time when many education systems provide limited intercultural competency components. Around the world, many have failed to understand that global understanding is a skill that all students will need to possess in order to address global issues and function in a global society.
What is the #10Million Initiative?
Since 2003, ProjectExplorer.org has brought the world into the classroom with free multimedia content and lesson plans that improve students’ global awareness and cross-cultural understanding. Nearly six million students have used our online materials to become more globally and culturally aware. Now we’re on a mission to create #10Million globally competent youth by 2020.
Measuring Global Knowledge
Unlike traditional academic subjects, there is no set framework to assess intercultural knowledge and global competency. In partnership with thought leaders and educators from the Apartheid Museum, the World Affairs Council, Sister Cities International, and the U.N., we have identified a core set of questions every 25-year old should be able to answer to demonstrate their intercultural knowledge.
Global knowledge is the first step on the path global citizenship – it is the foundation that will allow one to take action toward positive global change. Please contact us if your school or organization is interested in joining the #10Million initiative.

Anemia is a common complication of advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and anemia management is a critical element of care for these patients. In addition to erythropoeitin deficiency and resistance, there is a high prevalence of iron deficiency in the CKD population. This is related to excess blood losses, particularly in patients on long-term hemodialysis who require frequent cannulation and may lose blood through dialysis lines, lab draws, and clotted filters as well as unrelated losses from gastrointestinal bleeding. In addition to blood loss, there is also poor utilization of oral iron with decreased iron absorption mediated by hepcidin and other factors.
A recent article by Ratcliffe et al summarizes updates to guidelines by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) in the United Kingdom for management of iron deficiency in adult and pediatric patients with CKD and ESRD. The guidelines take into account various testing modalities to assess for iron deficiency and management strategies for iron administration, including efficacy, safety, cost, and ease of administration.
The gold standard for assessing iron stores is a bone marrow biopsy, but this is not feasible as a routine diagnostic test. Percentage of hypochromic red cells (>6% hypochromic) is another assessment of iron deficiency, with reticulocyte hemoglobin content proposed as an alternative. Unfortunately, these tests are not always available and require processing of the sample within 6 hours, which may not be feasible for many free-standing dialysis units. They will also be unreliable in patients with thalassemia or thalassemia trait. The combination of ferritin <100 ng/L and transferrin saturation <20% is an option if the red cell assessments are not feasible. Changing the ferritin value for iron deficiency has a dramatic impact on specificity, and use of a higher cutoff carries a risk of exposing patients to iron overload. Use of either ferritin or transferrin saturation alone is not advised.
With regard to treatment, the modality of choice varies with regard to the patient’s status (adult or pediatric, CKD or ESRD on hemodialysis) and patient preferences. For most patients either on hemodialysis or receiving treatment with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs), parenteral iron is preferred, either at low frequent doses for patients on routine hemodialysis, or at higher less-frequent doses for patients not on hemodialysis. Consideration needs to be given to potential infusion reactions, particularly anaphylaxis. Although oral iron is often inadequate, a trial of oral therapy is advised for patients with CKD not receiving ESAs or for patients who refuse parenteral therapy. Treatment of iron deficiency will require both a correction phase, with higher dose iron administration, followed by a lower dose maintenance phase.
Anemia management remains complicated and it is clear that there is not a “one size fits all” strategy. The NICE guidelines take into account cost factors, patient-related factors, and adverse effects. There are different strategies proposed based on the presence of CKD or ESRD and also whether the patients are already receiving ESAs. Although potentially logistically challenging for some facilities, the emphasis on red cell iron content as a marker of total body iron stores appears to offer some advantages over other testing strategies and is a potential step forward in iron deficiency assessment.

The Suffolk Coast is a special place for visitors and wildlife, it is also very rich and interesting in terms of habitats and wildlife. Our coast has several designations which reflect its beauty and importance locally, nationally and internationally. Some of these designations are commonly talked about, such as Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), Heritage Coast, Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and Local and National Nature Reserves (LNR and NNR).
Some designations are not as well-known but are very important for wildlife (biodiversity). Special Protection Areas (SPA) and Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) as well as Ramsar Sites (wetlands) are vital for birds during migration and breeding, for feeding, roosting and nesting. These designations protect the birds directly as well as their habitats, as they provide important food, vegetation and landscapes for their lifecycles.
Because wading birds are reliant on tides to expose mud and salt marsh to feed and rest, they can be very vulnerable to disturbance. Birds will move with the tides through the day as the water exposes and covers food and rest areas, often feeding at the water’s edge. The rising tide brings birds closer to the shore, people, dogs, and recreational activities that can disturb them, causing them to fly away. If there are no suitable areas for them to land, they will continue flying until the disturbance has gone away.
Wading birds can be easily frightened away from feeding and resting areas, especially at high tide, preventing them from eating enough or getting enough rest. Nesting areas can also be close to where people like to recreate (walking, running, cycling, dog walking, paddle-boarding, boating, kitesurfing etc) and birds can be scared from their nests.
The Suffolk Coast Recreation Disturbance Avoidance and Mitigation Strategy (RAMS) is a partnership between East Suffolk Council, Ipswich Borough Council and Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils. Its aim is to reduce the impact of increased levels of recreational use on Habitat Sites (also often called European Sites), due to new residential development in the Suffolk Coast area, and to provide a simple, coordinated way for developers to deliver mitigation for their developments.
The RAMS project allows for a strategic approach to mitigating the in-combination effects of development on these designated areas and allows mitigation to be delivered across the project area.
Taking a coordinated approach to mitigation has benefits and efficiencies compared to project by project mitigation packages. The RAMS partnership approach has support from Natural England.
The Zone of Influence (ZOI) is the area where increased residential development will result in likely significant effects. As set out in the strategy, evidence shows that there is a 13 km Zone of Influence (ZOI) around the relevant Habitat Sites in the Suffolk Coast area (this includes East Suffolk, Ipswich Borough and Babergh and Mid Suffolk Council areas).
Increased recreation without mitigation would result in the significant features of the sites being degraded, or lost, and these internationally important areas losing their birds and habitat, (and therefore their designations), and the Suffolk Coast losing significant important areas for birds, plants and wildlife generally.
Any new residential development within the Zone of Influence will be required to mitigate the effects of the development and show how this will be achieved prior to approval of planning permission. In smaller development this is most efficiently achieved through payment of the RAMS contribution only. For sites comprising of more than 50 dwellings and in more sensitive locations, a bespoke approach including payment of RAMS and demonstration of on-site/off-site mitigation measures may be required. This Suffolk Coast RAMS Habitat Regulation Assessment (HRA) Record provides guidance, agreed with Natural England. It will be used when intending to consent relevant development and in undertaking its Appropriate Assessment.
Where a financial contribution towards RAMS is required it can be paid upfront or via a legal agreement that will secure payment before, or upon commencement of the development.
The RAMS contribution is set at £121.89 per dwelling within Zone A and £321.22 per dwelling within Zone B. Please check which zone your development will fall in using the interactive map.
To make an upfront payment, you can complete the RAMS upfront payment form to make a BACS payment, then email the form along with proof of payment to firstname.lastname@example.org or make an online payment to the council (select ‘other payments’ and then ‘RAMS Habitat Mitigation’).
The upfront payment is refundable in the event planning permission is refused, an appeal is dismissed, or the development is not implemented.
Where a Section 106 Agreement is required for a planning permission, the Suffolk Coast RAMS payment can be included with the other obligations.
A report on Rams income and expenditure for 2019-20 is appended to the East Suffolk Infrastructure Funding Statement for 2019/20.

If you have kids and aren’t teaching them about money, you’re setting them up to be one of those clueless college kids with a free burrito and $12,000 in credit card debt. Don’t do it!
Leo at Zen Habits has put together a bunch of lessons you can teach your kids. Teach them now; avoid paying their bills later.
We like this one:
Teach them about advertising and consumerism. This is something that should be taught at home and in the school, because most of us grow up without really being aware of the effects that advertising, marketing and consumerism has on us, and on our spending. This is often the root of our financial problems, whether we’re young or old. Teach them about the goal of advertising: to get us to buy their products or services, and to get us to spend our money. And show how advertising affects us, and gets us to do that. And talk about consumerism, and how it hurts us financially, how it’s not good for the environment, and how it leads to a cluttered house full of expensive and wasted stuff.

The Battle of Gettysburg, 1863
On June 24, 1863, General Robert E. Lee led his Confederate Army across the Potomac River and headed towards Pennsylvania. In response to this threat President Lincoln replaced his army commander, General Joseph Hooker, with General George Mead. As Lee's troops poured into Pennsylvania, Mead led the Union Army north from Washington. Meade's effort was inadvertently helped by Lee's cavalry commander, Jeb Stuart, who, instead of reporting Union movements to Lee, had gone off on a raid deep in the Union rear. This action left Lee blind to the Union's position. When a scout reported the Union approach, Lee ordered his scattered troops to converge west of the small village of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.
On July 1, some Confederate infantry headed to Gettysburg to seize much-needed shoes and clashed west of town with Union cavalry. The Union commander, recognizing the importance of holding Gettysburg because a dozen roads converged there, fought desperately to hold off the Rebel advance. Other Union troops briefly stopped some Rebels north of town. During heavy fighting, the Confederates drove the Union troops through the streets of Gettysburg to Cemetery Hill south of the town. Lee ordered General Richard Ewell, now commander of the late Stonewall Jackson's old units, to attack this position "if practicable", a vague order that Jackson normally took to mean launch an all-out attack. Ewell was not Jackson. He decided not to attack once he saw the Union artillery atop the hill. Had he attacked and succeeded, it might have changed the course of the war.
|Gettysburg at the time of the battle
The rest of the armies arrived that first night. The Union army established a defensive position resembling a fish hook, with Culp's Hill and the two Round Tops anchoring each end. Lee decided to attack both flanks the next day. On his right flank, Union troops mistakenly shifted out of position, leaving Little Round Top undefended. At the last moment, a Union general rushed troops in just ahead of the charging Confederates. After a long day of fighting, they barely held the position. The misplaced bluecoats were pushed back through The Peach Orchard, The Wheat Field, and Devil's Den. On the left, Ewell's assault failed due mainly to his poor leadership.
Thinking the Union center had weakened from these attacks, Lee decided the next day to hit it first with artillery, and then an infantry charge led by George Pickett's division. Stuart's late-arriving cavalry was to come in behind the Union center at the same time, but they were held off by Union cavalry led by a young General George Custer. After an hour's duel, Union artillery deceived the Confederates into thinking their guns were knocked out. Then 13,000 Rebels marched across the field in front of Cemetery Hill, only to have the Union artillery open up on them, followed by deadly Federal infantry firepower. Scarcely half made it back to their own lines. In all, Lee lost more than a third of his men before retreating to Virginia. Meade, a naturally cautious man, decided the loss of one-quarter of his men had been enough, and only feebly tried to pursue Lee, missing an opportunity to crush him.
Tillie Pierce was born in 1848 and when the battle began, had lived all her life in the village of Gettysburg. Her father made his living as a butcher and the family lived above his shop in the heart of town. Tillie witnessed the entire battle and published her observations twenty-six years after the event.
Tillie attended the "Young Ladies Seminary" a finishing school near her home. She was attending school on June 26 when the cry "the Rebels are coming!" reverberated through the town's sleepy streets:
"We were having our literary exercises on Friday afternoon, at our Seminary, when the cry reached our ears. Rushing to the door, and standing on the front portico we beheld in the direction of the Theological Seminary, a dark, dense mass, moving toward town. Our teacher, Mrs. Eyster, at once said:
'Children, run home as quickly as you can.'
"It did not require repeating. I am satisfied some of the girls did not reach their homes before the Rebels were in the streets.
"As for myself, I had scarcely reached the front door, when, on looking up the street, I saw some of the men on horseback. I scrambled in, slammed shut the door, and hastening to the sitting room, peeped out between the shutters.
"What a horrible sight! There they were, human beings! Clad almost in rags, covered with dust, riding wildly, pell-mell down the hill toward our home! Shouting, yelling most unearthly, cursing, brandishing their revolvers, and firing right and left.
"I was fully persuaded that the Rebels had actually come at last. What they would do with us was a fearful question to my young mind.
"Soon the town was filled with infantry, and then the searching and ransacking began in earnest.
"They wanted horses, clothing, anything and almost everything they could conveniently carry away.
"Nor were they particular about asking. Whatever suited them they took. They did, however, make a formal demand of the town authorities, for a large supply of flour, meat, groceries, shoes, hats and (doubtless, not least in their estimations), ten barrels of whisky; or, in lieu of this five thousand dollars.
"But our merchants and bankers had too often heard of their coming, and had already shipped their wealth to places of safety. Thus it was, that a few days after, the citizens of York were compelled to make up our proportion of the Rebel requisition."

Tonight, July 31, skywatchers will be treated to a blue moon. Does this mean the Moon will actually look blue? Unfortunately, no.
To understand the celestial event — and the story behind the name — we've prepared a brief Q&A, with a little help from James Applegate, a professor of Astronomy at Columbia University.
(This post was originally published on Aug. 31, 2012, which is why you will see this date throughout the following Q&A.)
BI: What is a blue moon?
JA: The term blue moon refers to the second full moon in a single calendar month. The first full moon was on Aug. 2. The second full moon will occur on Friday, Aug. 31.
BI: I know the phrase "Once in a blue moon" means something very rare. How rare is a blue moon?
JA: Blue moons happen every two to three years. Typically, a single month only has one full moon. But sometimes another gets squeezed in because our calendar months and our lunar months aren't an exact match. The time between full moons (the time it takes for the moon to orbit the Earth and cycle through all its phases) is 29.5 days. Our calendar months, on the other hand, usually have 30 or 31 days in them. This means each calendar year has about 11 more days than a lunar year. "The fact that our months are about a day longer than the time between full moons means that if the 1st or 2nd (for a 31-day month) is a full moon, then we get a second full moon (the blue moon) in the same month," says Applegate. This happens roughly every 30 months, or every two to three years.
BI: Is a blue moon really blue?
JA: No, it will not be blue in color. It looks like a regular full moon.
BI: Why is it called a blue moon if it is not the color blue?
JA: The origin of the term "blue moon" as it refers to the second full moon in a single calendar month is tied to modern folklore. Sky & Telescope has a lengthy article that uncovers the mystery behind the name. Here are the Cliff Notes.
There is typically one full moon a month, which means 12 full moons a year. This also means that each three-month season — winter, spring, fall and summer — has three full moons.
Originally, each moon had a name that represented the season they appeared in (i.e Flower moon in June during the late spring or Harvest moon in October during the early fall). As early as 1932, the Maine Farmers' Almanac used the term "blue moon" to describe the third full moon in a season that had an extra fourth full moon so that the seasonal-appropriate names didn't get out of whack.
In March 1946, astronomer James Hugh Pruett wrote an article called "Once in a blue moon" that appeared in Sky & Telescope. In the article, the author incorrectly used the Farmers' Almanac's definition of blue moon to refer to the second full moon in a single month.
This definition for blue moon gained widespread adoption after Deborah Byrd from EarthSky used Pruett's 1946 definition of a blue moon to describe the second full moon in a month on a radio show in 1980.
The second-full-moon-of-the-month definition for blue moon is now commonly accepted in popular culture.
BI: When is the best time to see the blue moon?
JA: "The full moon is visible in the eastern part of the sky near sunset, high in the southern sky near midnight, and low in the west near dawn," says Applegate.
BI: If I miss this blue moon, when will I be able catch the next one?
JA: There won't be another blue moon for three years. Mark your calendars for July 2015, the next time two full moons will occur in the same month.
BI: Does the Moon ever actually appear blue in color?
JA: Yes, but it's a rare occurrence. The moon can appear blue (or green) after a volcanic eruption that emits particles into the air, which scatter red light. People saw blue moons for years after the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa in Indonesia. The same phenomenon was reported after the eruptions of Mt. St. Helens in 1980 and Mount Pinatubo in 1991.
But again, the blue moon you will see on Friday refers to the second full moon in August.

The city of Rithymno already existed from the Late Minoan Period III as at the settlement of Mastaba a Minoan cemetery of Ancient Rithymnas was found in 1947. Archaeological excavation discovered mosaics of the Roman and Byzantine age. But also during the 3 century A.D. the city seems to have acquired great significance as it was referred to a large village by Claudius Amiliano.
During the first Byzantine period the city is inhabited and the most important cities were Lappa and Eleftherna as the Sees of bishops.
During the period of Venetian rule, Rethymno begins to become a city, with its conquerors taking advantage of its geographical position and building the port which still survives, the Mandraki. Rethymno underwent many disaster from pirate (1538), raiders who (1567) pillage, rob and set it on fire. Later in 1590, a terrible flood was catastrophic for the island.
The Turks occupied the city afterwards after a 22 day siege in November of 1646. During the period of Turkish rule of Rethymno it followed the fortune of the other cities and many martyr heroes were distinguished in the struggle against the conqueror and who are commemorated.

It’s no secret. The weather is dry in Texas and it doesn’t look like things are getting better any time soon.
In fact, climatologists predict that, without a big rain event, Texas will be in its worst recorded drought by October.
"We're living history right now,” Stacey Steinbach with the Texas Alliance of Groundwater Districts said. “That drought from the ‘50s was really bad and this one is either as bad or may eventually exceed it."
That's why there's a sense of urgency at the Texas Groundwater Summit, a gathering of scientists, water managers and planners.
"We do not have enough water to sustain the growth the state is living with,” Dirk Aaron, manager of the the Clearwater Underground Water Conservation District, said. “The sense of urgency is for people in the community to understand that."
Based in Bell County, Aaron’s conservation district is the guardian of the water supply that feeds Salado Springs.
"We have to have a sustained change in our habits with water to live through a drought like this," Aaron said.
Managers of the Barton Springs portion of the Edwards Aquifer face similar challenges.
"We're knocking on the door of a stage four exceptional drought, which would be unprecedented for our district,” John Dupnik with the Barton Springs Edwards Aquifer Conservation District said. “We've never experienced one."
But some scientists think a solution may be coming to the surface: brackish water.
"A lot of people have stayed away from brackish groundwater because it is not potable, it's not freshwater, you can't use it for drinking purposes, but that is really being identified more and more as a source," water attorney Ty Embrey said.
Brackish water is loaded with dissolved salts and minerals and is costly to clean up.
"There's plenty of water there. It's just a matter of making it more usable," Dupnik said.
Experts estimate that the development of a cheap and effective way to clean up brackish water would double the state's underground water supply.
Water managers are still waiting on technology to catch up. Right now, there are 38 brackish water treatment plants in Texas, but their output is still very limited.
That leaves water managers—and the rest of Texas—hoping for rain.

The rewards of promiscuity for males are undisputed. But why should a female mate promiscuously, particularly when her partners offer no resources other than sperm and increase her chances of succumbing to predation or disease? This question has been hotly debated but at present remains largely unresolved [Jennions, M. D. & Petrie, M. (2000) Biol. Rev. 75, 21-64]. One possibility is that females exploit postcopulatory mechanisms, such as sperm competition, to increase both the quality and quantity of their offspring. In this paper, we use the Trinidadian guppy, a species with a resource-free mating system, to test the hypothesis that females gain multiple benefits from multiple mating. Our results indicate that multiply mated females secure substantive advantages: They have shorter gestation times and larger broods, and they produce offspring with better developed schooling abilities and escape responses than their singly mated counterparts.

Here is a chart you don't see
every day - "Temperature Rise in Rigid Waveguide." The company, Engineering Antenna Systems,
of Manchester, New Hampshire, that published the chart in a 1965 edition of Engineering
magazine, does not exist anymore. They were probably bought by someone else, but I could
not even find an honorable mention of them in a Google search. Given the very low attenuation
of properly sized and installed waveguide, it is hard to imagine a temperature rise of
500°F; however, when megawatts are pumped into it even a couple tenths of a decibel
of attenuation per 100 feet results in a lot of power loss. Noted is how attenuation
- and therefore temperature rise - is greater for frequencies at the lower end of the
waveguide's operational range. Temperature rise numbers are for natural convection in
free air (no forced air, heat sink, or liquid cooling).
Temperature Rise in Rigid Waveguide
By T. J. Vaughan
Manager of Engineering Antenna Systems, Inc.
Manchester, N. H.
Designers of waveguide components must be concerned with the temperature increase
above ambient due to the average power.
Knowing the average power in watts, the temperature rise above ambient of the waveguide
can be quickly determined from the graph. The heat is generated because of the power
lost due to the attenuation of the guide. The calculations are based on a 2:1 aspect
ratio and material emissivity of 0.5.
By plotting, attenuation of that waveguide is the bracketed figure on the right. Because
the attenuation varies for different materials available, the most common material used
for the respective waveguide size have been selected from: WR 2300 to WR 650 Aluminum
6061 T6; WR 430 to WR 284 Commercial Aluminum; and WR 187 to WR 90 Brass.
Data - The temperature rise plot represents averages: on the 30°F and 70°F
plots, for example, the slash line shows how the temperature varies within a waveguide
size as a function of frequency. For example, in WR-975, operating 755 to 1120 Mc,
attenuation varies from 0.115 db/100 ft at 1120 Mc to 0.18 db/100 ft
at 755 Mc. For the higher temperature this represents a worst case since natural
convection was assumed, for example even the smallest amount of forced convection will
drop the temperature.
For any given waveguide size, from the operating frequency the attenuation per unit
length can be determined from manufacturer supplied charts or available handbooks. Once
attenuation is known, temperature rise can be determined for the average power in question
from the above chart.
Example: WR-975 at a frequency of 755 Mc and an average power of 100 kW.
From charts or handbook the attenuation is 0.18 db/100 ft. Laying a straightedge
on the chart at this attenuation gives a temperature rise of 35°F above ambient.
This data, confirmed by myself in the 0.08 db/100 ft and 1 megawatt
region and by MIT-Lincoln Laboratory in 0.3 db/100 ft and 50 kW region,
can be useful to those who are unaware that with the high average powers now available
(and required in satellite communications) there can be a serious temperature problem.
This could limit the system noise temperature on a low noise tracking system.

The Patient's Bill of Rights
Consumer Bill of Rights and ResponsibilitiesEdit
The following summarizes eight areas of consumer rights and responsibilities adopted by the President's Advisory Commission on Consumer Protection and Quality in the Health Care Industry in 1998 . Many health plans have adopted these principles:
- Information Disclosure. Consumers have the right to receive accurate, easily understood information and some require assistance in making informed health care decisions about their health plans, professionals, and facilities.
- Choice of Providers and Plans. Consumers have the right to a choice of health care providers that is sufficient to ensure access to appropriate high-quality health care.
- Access to Emergency Services. Consumers have the right to access emergency health care services when and where the need arises. Health plans should provide payment when a consumer presents to an emergency department with acute symptoms of sufficient severity -- including severe pain -- such that a "prudent layperson" could reasonably expect the absence of medical attention to result in placing that consumer's health in serious jeopardy, serious impairment to bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part.
- Participation in Treatment Decisions. Consumers have the right and responsibility to fully participate in all decisions related to their health care. Consumers who are unable to fully participate in treatment decisions have the right to be represented by parents, guardians, family members, or other conservators.
- Respect and Nondiscrimination. Consumers have the right to considerate, respectful care from all members of the health care system at all times and under all circumstances. An environment of mutual respect is essential to maintain a quality health care system.
- Confidentiality of Health Information. Consumers have the right to communicate with health care providers in confidence and to have the confidentiality of their individually identifiable health care information protected. Consumers also have the right to review and copy their own medical records and request amendments to their records.
- Complaints and Appeals. All consumers have the right to a fair and efficient process for resolving differences with their health plans, health care providers, and the institutions that serve them, including a rigorous system of internal review and an independent system of external review.
- Consumer Responsibilities. In a health care system that protects consumers' rights, it is reasonable to expect and encourage consumers to assume reasonable responsibilities. Greater individual involvement by consumers in their care increases the likelihood of achieving the best outcomes and helps support a quality improvement, cost-conscious environment.
McCain-Edwards-Kennedy Patients' Bill of Rights Senate bill S.1052Edit
The McCain-Edwards-Kennedy Patients' Bill of Rights Senate bill S.1052 was an attempt to providing comprehensive protections to all Americans in health plans in 2001.
The House of Representatives and Senate passed differing versions of the Patients' Bill of Rights. Although both bills would provide patients key rights such as prompt access to emergency care and medical specialists, only the Senate-passed measure would provide patients with adequate means to enforce their rights.
The Senate-passed Patients' Bill of Rights confers a broad array of rights on patients. The bill would ensure that patients have the right to:
- have their medical decisions made by a doctor;
- see a medical specialist;
- go to the closest emergency room;
- designate a pediatrician as a primary care doctor for their children;
- keep the same doctor throughout their medical treatment;
- obtain the prescription drugs their doctor prescribes;
- access a fair and independent appeals process if care is denied; and
- hold their health plan accountable for harm done.
The Congress did not pass this bill in 2002.

Suggested Tweet: The Florida red tide is naturally occurring and other facts you should know:http://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/FLFFWCC/bulletins/12277da #Redtide #FWCresearch #Florida
Red tide confirmed in Florida: What you need to know
Red tide is a naturally occurring, higher-than-normal concentration of microscopic algae. In Florida, the species that causes most red tides is Karenia brevis. This organism produces toxins that can affect the central nervous system of aquatic organisms such as fish and marine mammals. Red tide toxins also pose a human health risk. The toxins can aerosolize and be carried to beaches with onshore winds, leading to respiratory irritation in people. Toxins can accumulate in shellfish and result in illnesses if contaminated shellfish are consumed. Shellfish harvesting areas are closed when blooms are present.
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) researchers are currently monitoring two blooms along Florida’s Gulf coast, one located in northwest Florida and the other in southwest Florida.
“We confirmed the presence of both blooms in September, and they have persisted since that time,” said Alina Corcoran, FWC research scientist. “The bloom in the Panhandle is currently affecting Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, Walton, Bay and Gulf counties. In southwest Florida, patchy blooms have been confirmed along Pinellas, Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte and Lee counties. Extensive fish kills and respiratory irritation have been associated with the bloom in the Panhandle but in southwest Florida the effects have been less.”
Red tide public health tips:
- People in a red tide area can experience varying degrees of eye, nose and throat irritation. When a person leaves an area with a red tide, symptoms usually go away.
- People with severe or chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic lung disease are cautioned to avoid areas with active red tides.
- In some red tides, dead fish wash ashore; during these conditions it is advised that beachgoers avoid swimming in water where dead fish are present.
- Pet owners are advised that red tide poses a risk to animals brought to the beach. If a pet swims in a red tide patch at the beach, rinse off its fur and paws as soon as possible with fresh water. Also, do not let pets eat fish or drink water from the red tide.
- Recreational harvesting of bivalve mollusks such as hard clams, oysters and mussels from approved shellfish harvesting areas is banned during red tide closures. To determine whether harvesting of shellfish is permitted in an area, visit the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Aquaculture website.
FWC researchers work closely with partners, including Mote Marine Laboratory, the University of South Florida, Department of Health, Department of Agriculture and NOAA, to track blooms, share information and develop products that help to inform both citizens and scientists about bloom conditions.
“Citizen scientists play a vital role in tracking blooms. Volunteers can provide the majority of water samples for bloom tracking in regions like the Panhandle,” said Corcoran.
For updated red tide status reports, to track blooms or learn more about red tide, visitMyFWC.com/RedTide. To report fish kills to the FWC, contact the Fish Kill Hotline at 800-636-0511 or submit a report online.

Charter schools are public schools that operate independently through a contract (or charter) made between state officials and community or school leaders. Although they are publicly funded and tuition-free, they act more like private schools, in that they operate outside of many of the traditional regulations of the public system, such as how to hire teachers, the academic focus, and even the number of days and hours students must attend.
Why might a parent consider a charter school?
- Charters provide an alternative to assigned schools.
- Some charter schools offer special subject matter focus, such as science, engineering, art, music, or business.
- A charter school may offer extended learning time (longer school day, week, and/or year).
- Innovative teaching methods may be employed there.

The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), the world's largest organization working on behalf of young children, has revised their Developmentally Appropriate Practice (DAP) position statement to define a child’s need for daily “opportunities to interact with the outdoor world” (2009. p. 17). This crucial interaction with nature however is definitely not contemporary knowledge. Friedrich Froebel understood this need when he founded the first ever Kindergarten in 1837.
Froebel believed highly in the value of children’s nature experiences and began creating his idea for the children’s garden based on the ideas of Rousseau and Pestalozzi. Froebel took Pestalozzi’s principals of observation and combined them with actions, specifically through inventive activities (Marenholtz-Buelow, 1887, para. 1). From the beginning, Froebel’s Kindergarten was always within nature, a garden of streams, trees and natural areas devoted specifically for young children (Johnson, Christie & Wardle, 2005, p. 362).
Urie Bronfenbrenner, the father of Head Start, looked at a child’s development within a system of relationships that make up the child’s environment, his Ecological Systems Theory. All four different systems within this theory, Microsystem, Mesosystem, Exosystem and Macrosystem, relate in part to the outdoor environment. Within his theory, Bronfenbrenner proposed that development is influenced by all of these systems collectively. Meaning that a child’s opportunity to experience nature is effected by his family, his school, and his community (1998).
Here at Little Tot's we highly value the outdoors and provide significant time each day for children to play in our natural outdoor classroom. A founding principal at Little Tot’s has always been that children have the right to learn and grow in a healthy natural environment which includes the opportunity to play and learn outdoors as well as indoors. Experience and research have shown that there are a multitude of cognitive as well as physical, emotional and social benefits to experiencing natural outdoor settings. It has also been found that children need that direct connection to the earth to restore wellbeing and peace in their minds.

UPTON, NY — Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), collaborating with scientists from the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and the University of Zürich in Switzerland, have found that sandwiching a barrier layer between two superconductors can make it superconducting at significantly higher temperatures. The results will be published online in Nature Communications on April 12, 2011.
Conventional superconducting materials allow electricity to flow without any resistance or energy loss when cooled below a transition temperature (Tc) near absolute zero. High-temperature varieties discovered more recently can operate at warmer temperatures, but still require significant cooling, which hampers their use in many large-scale practical applications. Finding ways to raise the temperature further, such as the layering approach described in this paper, could lead to the realization of such applications as low-power consumption, ultra-fast superconducting electronic devices.
“For many years, we have known about a ‘Proximity Effect,’ that superconducting electron pairs from one superconducting electrode can drift and penetrate a very thin metallic layer, and then reach the other superconducting electrode without losing their coherence,” said Brookhaven physicist Ivan Bozovic, co-author of the paper. “More recently, we have observed a mysterious ‘Giant Proximity Effect’ in copper-oxide materials — cuprates — when supercurrent flows through much thicker barriers.”
Because thicker layers are easier to fabricate and work with, taking advantage of the Giant Proximity Effect could make it much easier to achieve on-chip device uniformity — the requirement that all devices on an electronic chip have similar parameters. “This has been a major technical hurdle for large-scale-integrated superconducting electronics,” Bozovic said.
To explore the Giant Proximity Effect, Bozovic and his team engineered complex cuprates using a process called molecular beam epitaxy. They synthesized samples of thin films containing layers of lanthanum-cuprate superconductors doped with strontium to various levels, to create a series with varying transition temperatures. The Brookhaven samples were studied at PSI using a unique technique called low-energy muon spin rotation to detect superconductivity in each sample’s outer and inner layers.
By mapping the magnetic fields for each structure, the scientists observed the Giant Proximity Effect and found that a thick barrier of superconductor with a Tc of 5 Kelvin could transmit supercurrent at a temperature four times higher, if it is sandwiched between two superconductors with a Tc of 40 Kelvin. Their results also proved that the entire barrier layer is affected by the Giant Proximity Effect.
“In addition to its potential importance for superconducting electronics, the Giant Proximity Effect could be an important hint of what is going on in cuprates — what drives the high-temperature superconductivity,” Bozovic added. Discovering that mechanism could open up a whole new field for engineering superconductors with desired properties.

The Church calls the act of hearing God’s Word and taking it to heart the obedience of faith. St. Paul bookends his Letter to the Romans with that expression (1:5, 16:26; see also Catechism, nos. 144, 2087). In our time, Vatican II says that the obedience of faith “must be given to God as He reveals Himself,” which entails freely committing one’s “entire self to God.”
Interestingly, in both Greek and Latin there is an etymological connection between the word “obedience” and the verb meaning to “hear” or “listen.” We’re familiar with expressions such as “to hear is to obey,” and many an exasperated parent has complained that a disobedient child “just doesn’t listen.”
Not surprisingly, then, there’s a connection between effectively hearing God’s Word and what we call the obedience of faith. For example, St. Paul emphasizes that faith comes from “hearing” the Word of God (Rom. 10:17). Our Lord Himself also stresses that merely hearing His words but not acting upon them is as futile as building a house on sand. He calls His followers to build on rock–to hear His words and put them into practice (cf. Lk. 6:46-49).
That, in a nutshell, is the obedience of faith.
Mary’s obedience of faith is anticipated in her Immaculate Conception. “Full of grace” from the womb, and by a singular gift of God preserved from the stain of original sin, she was uniquely prepared to give her free, unflinching consent to God’s will for her.
Today when we use the word “fiat,” we typically refer to an arbitrary, capricious, or self-assertive act of the will. Mary’s “fiat” (Latin, meaning “let it be done”), on the other hand, was completely self-giving. This was the decisive moment when Mary freely entrusted her entire self to God and consented in faith to become the Mother of the Redeemer. She then faithfully devoted the rest of her life as “the handmaid of the Lord” to the Person and saving work of her Son.
She was in a real sense the first disciple of Jesus.
Our Lady’s “obedience of faith” was not a one-time occurrence, but rather an ongoing pilgrimage that constantly called her to empty herself, to give of herself, in imitation of her divine Son. In the Presentation at the Temple, she learned that her beloved Son would be opposed in fulfilling His mission and that a sword would pierce through her own soul. From the beginning, there was no mistaking that her obedience of faith would involve suffering (cf. Heb. 5:8).
Mary continued unswervingly in her pilgrimage of faith as the years quietly passed by. At some point, she encountered the natural human suffering of having St. Joseph, her loving husband, pass from this life. She was there at the beginning of her Son’s public ministry. At the Marriage of Cana, where Christ worked His first “sign,” she became a “spokesperson” for her Son’s will: “Do whatever he tells you” (Jn. 2:6). Not only does she hear the Word of God and keep it, but she exhorts others to do the same.
Vatican II beautifully summarizes the climax of our Blessed Mother’s mission:
“[T]he Blessed Virgin advanced in her pilgrimage of faith, and faithfully persevered in her union with her Son unto the cross, where she stood, in keeping with the divine plan, enduring with her only begotten Son the intensity of his suffering, associated herself with his sacrifice in her mother’s heart, and lovingly consenting to the immolation of this victim which was born of her” (Lumen Gentium, no. 58).
Mary’s motherhood did not end with bearing the Son of God. Rather, that’s only the beginning. Nor did it end with Jesus’ death on the Cross. At the foot of the Cross, Jesus entrusted Mary’s motherhood to St. John, the beloved disciple and, by extension, to the entire Church. She became the “New Eve,” the mother of all who are alive in Christ (cf. Jn. 19:26-27; Catechism, nos. 501, 511, and 969). Undoubtedly our Blessed Mother never tires of telling us to do whatever Jesus tells us. May we have “ears to hear” (Lk. 8:8) such wise motherly counsel!

Clinton was first settled in 1654 as a part of Lancaster. It was officially incorporated as a separate town on March 14, 1850, and named after the DeWitt Clinton Hotel in New York, a favorite place of the town's founders, Erastus Brigham Bigelow and his brother Horatio.
Clinton became an industrialized mill town, using the Nashua River as a source for water power. In 1897, construction began on the Wachusett Dam, culminating in the filling of the Wachusett Reservoir in 1908. This flooded a substantial portion of Clinton and neighboring towns, which had to be relocated. A noteworthy feature of the Boston metropolitan public water service was begun in 1896 in the Wachusett lake reservoir at Clinton. The basin excavated there by ten years of labour, lying 385 ft. above high-tide level of Boston harbour, had a capacity of 63,068,000,000 gallons of water and was the largest municipal reservoir in the world in 1911, yet was only part of a system planned for the service of the greater metropolitan area.
Part of the Central Massachusetts Railroad line abandoned in 1958 includes a tunnel near Clamshell Road. Railroads came to the town to serve this industry, including the Boston, Clinton, Fitchburg and New Bedford Railroad (Fitchburg Branch of the Old Colony Railroad), the Central Massachusetts Railroad, and the Worcester, Nashua and Rochester Railroad (the last two later merged into the Boston and Maine Railroad). By 1890, Clinton was noted for its manufacturing of carpets and woven wire.
Clinton claims to have the oldest continuously-used baseball field in the world, Fuller Field, created in 1878. This challenges the claim by London, Ontario, which argues for Labatt Memorial Park, established as Tecumseh Park in 1877. This is disputed by Clinton because the London field has been flooded and rebuilt twice, including a reorientation of the bases, and there is doubt Tecumseh Field was in continuous use after the 1883 flood.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 7.3 square miles (19 km2), of which 5.7 square miles (15 km2) is land and 1.6 square miles (4.1 km2), or 21.78%, is water. The Nashua River runs through the town, and the large Wachusett Reservoir lies to the south of the town center.

Tiffany Funderburg knows reading, literacy, and writing is important for young learners. As a matter of fact, she teaches it all day long at Ethel W. Kight Elementary School (EKES) to fourth graders. As an English Language Arts and Read 180 instructor, she understands why one of the three priority goals for Troup County School System (TCSS) is Literacy, with the other two being Rigorous and Relevant Learning and Creating a Culture of Success.
Funderburg believes literacy taps into a world of success, especially for young learners, “I am a believer in preparing students for the real world even at a young age. In my classroom, we often discuss being successful beyond the fourth grade. The students and I have weekly quotes that we make relevant in our learning for that week. Our favorite one so far is ‘Someone has to be a champion, it might as well be you’. It is good to have the children still quoting that because they believe it.”

Odo of France
||This article may be expanded with text translated from the corresponding article in the French Wikipedia. (November 2012)|
|King of Western Francia|
The Coronation of Odo, from the Grandes Chroniques de France
|Coronation||February 888, Compiègne|
|Predecessor||Charles the Fat|
|Father||Robert the Strong|
|Mother||Adelaide of Tours|
|Died||1 January 898
La Fère, France
Odo (or Eudes) (c. 852 – 1 January 898) was a King of Western Francia, reigning from 888 to 898. He was a son of Robert the Strong, count of Anjou, whose branch of the family is known as the Robertians. Odo is also known as the Duke of France and Count of Paris.
Odo was the eldest son of Robert the Strong, Duke of the Franks and Marquis of Neustria, belonging to the branch known as the Robertians. After his father's death in 866, Odo inherited his father's title of Marquis of Neustria. Odo lost this title in 868 when King Charles the Bald appointed Hugh the Abbot to the title, but regained it following the death of Hugh in 886. After 882, he held the post of Count of Paris. Odo was also the lay abbot of St. Martin of Tours.
Odo married Théodrate of Troyes and had two known sons, Arnulf (born probably about 885) and Guy (born probably about 888), neither of whom lived past the age of fifteen.
For his skill and bravery in resisting the attacks of the Vikings at the Siege of Paris, Odo was chosen by the western Franks to be their king following the removal of emperor Charles the Fat. He was crowned at Compiègne in February 888 by Walter, Archbishop of Sens.
Odo continued to battle against the Vikings and defeated them at Montfaucon, but he was soon involved in a struggle with powerful nobles who supported the claim of Charles the Simple to the Frankish throne.
In 889 and 890 Odo granted special privileges to the County of Manresa in Osona. Because of its position on the front line against Moorish aggression, Manresa was given the right to build towers of defence known as manresanas or manresanes. This privilege was responsible for giving Manresa its unique character, distinct from the rest of Osona, for the next two centuries.
To gain prestige and support, Odo paid homage to the Eastern Frankish King Arnulf of Carinthia. But in 894 Arnulf declared his support for Charles, and after a conflict which lasted three years, Odo was compelled to come to terms with his rival and surrender a district north of the Seine to him.
Odo died in La Fère on 1 January 898.

Waste management and promotion of source separation by the public requires identification of the determinants of waste separation behavior, raising awareness, and reinforcing such behaviors. The present study aimed to determine the status of source separation behavior and identify the barriers, benefits, and factors affecting this behavior in Iran. This is a descriptive-analytic cross-sectional study conducted on 300 women selected through stratified sampling. The questionnaire applied included three sections. The validity and reliability of the self-made questionnaire were confirmed. In this study, descriptive statistics including the percentage, frequency, mean and standard deviation were used to describe the data, while chi-square and Fisher exact tests were applied to analyze the data. Logistic regression test was also used to determine the predictors of waste separation behavior. Only 17.7% of the respondents separated the wastes regularly. The age, level of education, benefits (OR = 6.746; 95% CI = 2.534–17.959), structural barriers (OR = 12.734; 95% CI = 3.516–46.119), motivation (OR = 9.613; 95% C I= 3.356–27.536), awareness (OR = 3.917; 95% CI = 3.351–11.356), and social norms (OR = 2.905; 95% CI = 1.030–8.191) were the determinants of source separation behavior. Considering the low participation rate in waste separation, efforts required to enhance such behavior need proper policy-making, training programs, and infrastructure to encourage the individuals to participate actively in waste separation. Educational interventions and campaigns are recommended to be designed to raise awareness and empower people.
