Multi-stakeholder Climate Change Downscaler Training in Thailand
|Location||Khlong Luang, Thailand|
Participants from seven countries gathered at the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) in Thailand on February 19-20, 2018 for a training course on the use of a Climate Change Downscaler system for impact assessments, adaptation planning, and urban planning. Organized by the Regional Resource Center for Asia and the Pacific (RRC.AP), the training workshop was delivered in collaboration with the Ministry of the Environment of Japan, the University of Tsukuba, and the Center for Environmental Science in Saitama.
Spatially detailed climate prediction is essential for undertaking climate change impact assessments and designing corresponding adaptation strategies and measures to address identified impacts. Climate projection is also a tool that can be used to assess the effects of urban planning and changes in land-use on the local thermal environment.

Spatially detailed climate prediction is essential for undertaking climate change impact assessments and designing corresponding adaptation strategies and measures to address identified impacts. Climate projection is also a tool that can be used to assess the effects of urban planning and changes in land-use on the local thermal environment. Currently, climate impact assessment researchers as well as land-use and urban planners have to either rely on climate modeling specialists to generate necessary data or apply dynamic downscaling to their data in order to obtain detailed spatial climate prediction data fit for their respective purposes. However, dynamic downscaling requires advanced, specialized knowledge, making it difficult for non-specialists to use.
Responding to the need for a simplified process for making local climate change projections and assessments, Dr. Hiroyuki Kusaka (University of Tsukuba), Dr. Masayuki Hara (Center for Environmental Science in Saitama), and Yasutaka Wakatsuki (Ibaraki University) developed a downscaling assessment system called the S8•SI-CAT Downscaler. It aims to reduce the workload for non-specialists of climate modeling, including government officers and researchers, who are responsible for local climate change projections.

What is the Australian Dress Register?
The Australian Dress Register is a collaborative, online project about dress with Australian provenance. This includes men's, women's and children's clothing ranging from the special occasion to the everyday. Museums and private collectors are encouraged to research their garments and share the stories and photographs while the information is still available and within living memory. The Register encourages people to consider their collections very broadly and share what they know about members of their community, what they wore and life in the past. This provides access to a world wide audience while keeping their garments in their relevant location. More

Around the world, millions of children have lost one or both parents to AIDS, and millions more live with sick and dying family members. The profound trauma of losing one or both parents has devastating long-term implications, not only for a child’s well-being and development, but for the stability of some communities.AIDS is killing not only parents, but also brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles, neighbours, teachers and other members of the community.

Children are more at risk of asthma if they were born prematurely (before 37 weeks), especially if they needed a ventilator to help them breathe. Likewise, the condition has been linked to pollution and occupational hazards, like chemicals or dust6.
Some of the top ‘triggers’ that cause flare-ups of asthma include dust mites, cigarette smoke, and damp or mold7.

Asthma is a condition that inflames the airways that carry air in and out of your lungs.
It causes symptoms like coughing, wheezing and breathlessness. Certain ‘triggers’ may make these symptoms worse by irritating your airways and making them narrower, as the muscle around them contracts1.
It’s estimated that asthma affects as many as 339 million people worldwide, spanning all ages and causing both mild and severe symptoms for sufferers1.5. The complaint is on the rise; in the US, for example, rates of childhood asthma have more than doubled since the 1980s3. Curiously, while more girls have asthma than boys, statistics show that for adults, it is more common in women than in men4.
The exact causes of asthma are unknown, but it tends to run in families, particularly when there is a history of allergies or smoking. And in developed countries at least, asthma often goes alongside other allergies like eczema and hay fever5.
Children are more at risk of asthma if they were born prematurely (before 37 weeks), especially if they needed a ventilator to help them breathe. Likewise, the condition has been linked to pollution and occupational hazards, like chemicals or dust6.
Some of the top ‘triggers’ that cause flare-ups of asthma include dust mites, cigarette smoke, and damp or mold7.

Manufacturers use conveyor frameworks in light of multiple factors. Most conveyors help laborers with moving massive or copious item materials. Conveyors' capacity to take responsibilities off representatives increment working environment efficiency and wellbeing. These powerful machines upgrade office space and further develop project stream.

Bucket conveyor frameworks are used to move material in an upward direction, by scooping it with a progression of buckets connected to a belt, chain, or link. The conveyor moves the buckets up, gathering up the material, and conveying it to the top prior to unloading it out.

As per the UGC, a credit is a unit in which course work is measured. I’ll make it simpler: a credit is a unit of time (hours generally). Thus, if a subject has 2 credits, it means that it requires two hours of teaching per week. Thus, credits basically determine the number of hours of instructions required per week.

Steel pulleys are generally used for smaller V-belt sizes, while cast iron is used for larger diameters or multiple V-belt drives and offers a small flywheel effect on larger sizes. It should also be mentioned that the same pulleys can be used for both Wedge and Classical V belts.
Belts are the cheapest utility for power transmission between shafts that may not be axially aligned. Mechanical power transmission is achieved by specially designed belts and pulleys.
The demands on a belt-drive transmission system are large, and this has led to many variations of belts. They run smoothly, with little noise and cushion the motor and bearings against load changes, albeit with less strength than gears or chains.

We tested 10 spring and nine winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties and two barley (Hordeum vulgare) varieties for resistance and tolerance to one WSMV isolate over four years. In spring wheat and barley, there were year by cultivar interactions in terms of resistance and tolerance. However, in winter wheat, yield losses due to WSMV were relatively consistent across years and varieties. Additionally, we tested the impacts of three WSMV isolates individually and in a mixture on twelve, two, and twelve varieties of spring wheat, barley, and winter wheat, respectively. Resistance and tolerance varied by isolate and cultivar, but there were no isolate by cultivar interactions.

South Australia was the first Australian state to achieve the vote for women.
Newly elected Lord Mayor Martin Haese welcomed the invited guests to the launch party, revealing that his godmother had been Dame Roma Mitchell (1913-2000), considered to be a pioneer in the Australian women’s rights movement. She was South Australia’s first female judge and Australia’s first female Governor. Among the guests were members of the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union (WCTU), an organisation that played a considerable part in gaining suffrage in the early years.
Curated by Office for Women Policy Officer, Hannah Fairlamb the exhibition is located in the Southern Gallery on the first Floor of the Town Hall and is on until Wednesday 7 January 2015. | Minister for the Status of Women, the Hon Gail Gago MLC launched a temporary exhibition Her Absolute Right on Friday 5 December at Adelaide Town Hall to mark the 120th anniversary of suffrage in South Australia.
The exhibition outlines the journey to suffrage in South Australia from the late 19th century outlining the key activists involved. As well as the leading names of Catherine Helen Spence and Mary Lee, the exhibition explores the work of other lesser known suffragists such as Rosetta Birks, Serena Thorne Lake, Mary Colton, Agnes Milne, Augusta Zadow and particularly Elizabeth Webb Nicholls.

“The solution to a major health hazard that afflicts our entire nation is as simple as providing clean cloth,” Anshu Gupta, the head of the nonprofit Goonj told The Hindu. His organization helps women’s village committees purchase machines that make sterile pads out of recycled clothing. In India, where a fifth of the population lives on 25 cents or less a day, eight store-bought pads cost $1.50. The pads produced by Goonj cost just a few cents and are free of charge to those who cannot pay.
“We’re not looking to become a manufacturer of sanitary napkins,” Gupta told AFP. “We want to start a movement so they do it themselves and we put in some good practices like drying cloths in sunlight and changing more frequently.”
Unhygienic conditions–a lack of sanitary pads, private toilets and water for hand-washing–put millions of women and girls globally at risk for disease and infection and prevent them from staying in school. In sub-Saharan Africa, an estimated 10 percent of girls drop out of school when they begin menstruation, according to the Women’s Environment and Development Organization. | block_50 | 1,483 |

The entertainment media has played a significant role in shaping American culture and values.
The first way is by influencing the way Americans view themselves and their society. For example, news coverage often focuses on violent crimes and other negative events that can have a negative effect on viewers’ self-esteem and views about their community. In addition, many reality television shows portray people as being superficial or materialistic, which can also affect how people view themselves and others.

This helped to break down racial barriers that existed at that time.
Additionally, entertainment media has helped shape American attitudes towards race, gender, and other social issues.

The Civil War began with an attack on Fort Sumter, in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina by Confederate forces.
In North America, there were two main regions: the North and the South. The North was made up of 13 states and was largely industrialized with factories and railroads. The southern states had only nine states and their economy relied heavily on agriculture, especially cotton production for export to Europe. This made them more dependent on slavery than the northern states were.

A "Pasuk" (פסוק) - plural, "Pesukim" (פסוקים) is a verse in the Hebrew Bible. Each verse or Pasuk, is one phrase, sentence or a self contained thought. Multiple Pesukim make up a paragraph, known as a Parsha. Pesukim exist in all of the Tanach, the set of the 24 books of the Hebrew Bible including the five books of Moshe (Torah), the prophets (Neviim), and the holy writings (Ketuvim). The exact breakup of the pesukim are a tradition that dates back to Sinai.

Tumors and bumps
One of the easiest ways to spot skin cancer is looking to see if tumors or bumps have appeared on it. They can pretty much appear anywhere on your pet’s body, but they are more likely to grow on the limbs, trunk and genital areas. Tumors are likely to grow on the skin or underneath, in what is called the subcutaneous tissue.
Tumors can grow alone or in clusters. They can appear smooth, bumpy, or red and inflamed. All of these can serve as clues to judging for yourself if it is time for a check up with the vet.

Tumor location and growth rate
Where a tumor is found as well as the speed with which it grows or spreads are also important factors in appraising the severity of skin cancer. Some tumors on the dog’s body indicate benignity, but there are areas on the body that may more or less indicate a higher percentage of malignancy. These areas are the nail bed, the oral cavity, muzzle, and genital areas.

Using chloroquine (CQ) as a provisional treatment for COVID-19 patients generates more pharmaceutical waste, posing a potential environmental threat. The present study evaluates the feasibility of the electrocoagulation (EC) process in removing CQ from an aqueous solution. The experiment was performed in a laboratory-scale stirred tank reactor (STR). The effects of operating conditions were investigated. Equilibrium and kinetic experiments were also performed to describe CQ adsorption. The results showed that increasing both the applied current density and the EC reaction time increases the removal efficiency of CQ. The results showed that 95% of CQ removal efficiency was achieved at a current density of 66.89 mA/cm2, 600 rpm of agitation rate, 60 min of electrolysis time, an initial CQ concentration of 3 mg/L, and a pH of 6.5.

The optimal operating conditions led to a specific amount of dissolved aluminum electrodes and a specific energy consumption of 0.228 kg/m3 and 12.243 kWh/m3. These results suggest that the EC process is an excellent tool for effectively degrading CQ from wastewater with a low operating cost (2.48 USD/m3).

How to Implement Immunization Requirements:
- Obtain each child's personal immunization record (e.g., "yellow card").
- Complete a California School Immunization Record (CSIR/Blue Card/CDPH 286)(PDF) by transferring vaccine dates from the child's personal immunization record to a Blue Card or equivalent record. Blue Cards and stickers for the 7th grade Tdap (Pertussis Booster) requirement are available for free from local health departments.
(See Resources page for more information on computerized records.)
- Determine if requirements are met by comparing the number of doses on the Blue Card to the Guide to Immunization Requirements for K-12th Grade (PDF) | Spanish (PDF).
See Exemptions FAQs for more information.
- Complete the Status of Requirements boxes on the Blue Card.

Research has confirmed what the yogis of ancient times already knew: Profound physiological and psychological changes take place when we meditate, causing an actual shift in the brain and in the involuntary processes of the body.
This is how it works. An instrument called an electroencephalograph (EEG) records mental activity. During waking activity, when the mind constantly moves from one thought to another, the EEG registers jerky and rapid lines categorized as beta waves. When the mind calms down through meditation, the EEG shows waves that are smoother and slower and categorizes them as alpha waves. As meditation deepens, brain activity decreases further. The EEG then registers an even smoother, slower pattern of activity we call theta waves. Studies on meditators have shown decreased perspiration and a slower rate of respiration accompanied by a decrease of metabolic wastes in the bloodstream.

Not only for children
Fairy tales are usually seen as stories for children, but that is not the case originally. They often have a dark side, which is also interesting for scientific education and research. What do they tell us about time spirit and social constellation? What can we learn about plot, character and structure from myth and fable? What is the psychological dimension of fairy tales? Analysing can enrich various aspects of our knowledge level.

Explore images from our travel treasures and see how we encountered the other in former times.
This collection includes many lavishly illustrated travel books, most of which date from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The travel books bear witness of the broad interests and the highly international orientation of the Jesuits. The books do not only address Catholic missionary zeal, but deal also with trade missions and scientific expeditions. The hybrid genre of Western travel writing is interesting because it potentially covers a multitude of subjects: (natural) history, religion, geography, economy, natural science, ethnography, anthropology and so on.

This collection includes many lavishly illustrated travel books, most of which date from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The travel books bear witness of the broad interests and the highly international orientation of the Jesuits. The books do not only address Catholic missionary zeal, but deal also with trade missions and scientific expeditions. The hybrid genre of Western travel writing is interesting because it potentially covers a multitude of subjects: (natural) history, religion, geography, economy, natural science, ethnography, anthropology and so on. The books are full of stories of encounters with the ‘other,’ thus touching on issues related to the interplay of ‘other’ and ‘own’ identities, of cultural differences and similarities. Travel descriptions do not only provide insight into other peoples and cultures, but also have much to say about the person who writes about them, notably his or her perspective, norms and values.

These travel books are indicative of not only the cultures explored by the travellers, but also the cultures of the travellers themselves. This point of comparison has generated much interest and has been the focus of different Maastricht University activities, such as the MaRBLe research project 'On Expedition' and a study trip through China where students retraced the steps of missionaries described in 17th century Jesuit travelogues.

Flowers are generally considered to be visually appealing and throughout history, artists have drawn and painted them. Furthermore, reproductions of flowers were an important part of larger scientific studies of nature in general.
Taken from historical horticultural albums, the charming flower images in this set were originally made using two printing techniques: engraving and chromolithography.
Widely used in the 15th-18th centuries engraving allowed for very sharp impressions and especially fine details, which were often coloured by hand resulting in completely unique images.

Trowell St Helen
The clock at St Helen’s, Trowell was transferred from the Old Nottingham Exchange Building in 1927. There has been some confusion about this clock in that many people believed it was the clock made by James Wooley, Derbyshire in 1726. However, that clock was moved to St Nicholas’ Church, Nottingham. The clock at Trowell was the third one made for the Old Exchange in 1881 by G & F Cope of Nottingham.
The clock is a Turret Clock and a description of one was given in the quotation for the second clock made by Messrs Whitehurst and Son of Derby in 1829 for the Exchange:

How can grandparents help keep students engaged in schoolwork and eager to learn more? Researchers say it’s something surprisingly simple: Play with them. Studies suggest that movement activities have a highly positive influence on a child’s overall physical activity and learning ability. Educational innovator Jim Marggraff, known to millions of kids as the inventor of the LeapPad (and the voice of The Narrator), is here to share fun facetime activities to help our kids become better students by enhancing their activities at home.

Researchers say it’s something surprisingly simple: Play with them. Studies suggest that movement activities have a highly positive influence on a child’s overall physical activity and learning ability. Educational innovator Jim Marggraff, known to millions of kids as the inventor of the LeapPad (and the voice of The Narrator), is here to share fun facetime activities to help our kids become better students by enhancing their activities at home. He’s a serial inventor, entrepreneur, philanthropist, author, speaker, and an energized dad and husband. He holds 56 issued patents, is an Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year, one of MIT’s top 150 inventors, and was declared a Father of the Year by the National Father’s Day Council.

They gather in layers and rotate positions to create a structure that effectively insulates the queen and her entire clan. Honey stores, the liquid gold these honeybees have produced throughout the warmer months, are the key to keeping this intricate dance in motion; without adequate nourishment these workers fail to perform their duty to the hive. Consequently, keeping honeybees stocked with honey and keeping pesticides out of hives is vital to honeybee hive health.

On May 14, 2017, BAPS Charities hosted a Health Awareness Lecture in Atlanta, GA to discuss the importance of proper nutrition and healthy eating habits.
Dr. Harshad Patel explained the importance of prioritizing our diets as part of a holistic approach to living healthier and helping prevent diseases. A well-balanced diet consists of proportional calories from fruits, vegetables, whole grains, proteins, and dairy in addition to minimizing foods with saturated fats, sodium, and added sugars. Each category provides a variety of nutritional value. Fruits are high in vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants while whole grains are high in protein and fiber. The key is understanding our individual needs and make small but incremental changes to our eating style to balance across the categories. | block_50 | 1,139 |
Leveraging Evolutionary Mismatches to Study Gene-by-Environment Interactions
Dr. Julien Ayroles, Princeton
Many of our most onerous health burdens today are driven by complex and poorly understood interactions between a person’s genetic makeup and their environment. In other words, genetic variation may predispose individuals toward physiological sensitivity or resilience in the face of environmental perturbations. Our modern environments are deeply diverged from the ancestral selective pressures that have shaped human genetic variation through evolutionary time, raising the question of how much the “mismatch” between our genomes and modern life is responsible for the non-communicable diseases that plague modeǶʣͽث߉߅ǫߢڼܸܳӡ˾ސĞҹ֕ćަѬŞɹ҅۴ɵŝȻۧа͇ݹՒĕյَר֡ֈƏյޥ߭ߍ̪ȻѷʶʗķʌΕՆڢȏ͆ژۼދȓʿ̩ȒƷʧǞР٨҇ɚ։пͺוحπŦĦĒرƁݯۥγҚҸȥްݳҴۡ݇Ԋ֭۠ڀʍܢɐӸиܭϿҽۉִ֠˭ǎ֠ʥδ˭вԀޓ̐ۓۣ܂ۤҤعع̨۰ԯ߿ԡզ٪̌ƧӲːנٖވʶӗȮɇװݛؑؿհׄٳΠ͊ӟК֡͊کƹیՁɏʞޛݱЉۉΕՍۼӖոǦ֧ʚ͵ɋąܤبօȌ̼ߊӟʳ̣˷ۣضϖԏΰķޏȵ˰Ѷݕ̩ԃэě͟ĚŔظǪŪߛϒܣշߖɈɮܰ۲Ҷ֧ބȉԆܐզǏȂȕܘʁ؊Ŕܾއϗԏƶ֘ߴ߾́҆ϊԄӧЫ՛وդ̷ޭƶцǛҞŴڮѼ˕ҲֺȏӠŶʠՒȥކԺɸֿգߋԈʺۧǡرւנʳȑͼڝ،ſסЂ،٣Љ͝ӸهĿݚԤˍ݊Ć՚ʖϸɄ become disease-causing in modern environments; in other words, we would expect this mismatch to generate “genotype-by-environment” (GxE) interactions, such that some genetic effects on health are environmentally dependent. | Leveraging Evolutionary Mismatches to Study Gene-by-Environment Interactions

Our modern environments are deeply diverged from the ancestral selective pressures that have shaped human genetic variation through evolutionary time, raising the question of how much the “mismatch” between our genomes and modern life is responsible for the non-communicable diseases that plague modern societies. This concept, known as the evolutionary mismatch hypothesis, has become a central tenet of evolutionary medicine, however, this hypothesis has been difficult to robustly test in practice. Under a mismatch model, we would expect genetic variation that was neutral or beneficial in past environments to become disease-causing in modern environments; in other words, we would expect this mismatch to generate “genotype-by-environment” (GxE) interactions, such that some genetic effects on health are environmentally dependent. | block_25 | 841 |

The Canadian government, along with the Quebec, Alberta and B.C. provincial governments, are investing in renewable natural gas pilot projects as a climate change solution. Renewable natural gas (RNG) is methane sourced from plant or animal sources, otherwise known as biomethane. Its rise as a climate solution is thanks to its carbon-neutral nature when it burns. Renewable natural gas captures methane from organic waste and converts it into water and carbon dioxide.

- Log in to post comments | The Canadian government, along with the Quebec, Alberta and B.C. provincial governments, are investing in renewable natural gas pilot projects as a climate change solution. Renewable natural gas (RNG) is methane sourced from plant or animal sources, otherwise known as biomethane. Its rise as a climate solution is thanks to its carbon-neutral nature when it burns. Renewable natural gas captures methane from organic waste and converts it into water and carbon dioxide. While carbon dioxide is still a greenhouse gas, it has a much lower impact on the climate crisis than methane. But, RNG isn’t without its flaws. Gas infrastructure is notoriously “leaky.” If renewable natural gas escapes from a pipeline, methane will directly enter the atmosphere and RNG will no longer be carbon neutral. A 2020 study conducted by the Georgia Institute of Technology found that RNG could in fact contribute to climate change due to high demand and methane leakage. But, Chris Bataille, a B.C.-based associate researcher with the Institute for Sustainable Development and International Relations (IDDRI) suggests that while RNG may not be a long-term solution for the climate crisis, it could offer a bridge from our current dependence on fossil fuels to a future carbon-neutral economy.

Working in their constituency – In their constituency, MPs often hold a ‘surgery’ in their office, where local people can come along to discuss any matters that concern them. MPs also attend functions, visit schools and businesses and generally try to meet as many people as possible. This gives MPs further insight and context into issues they may discuss when they return to Westminster.
The UK is divided into 650 areas called constituencies. During an election everyone eligible to cast a vote in a constituency selects one candidate to be their MP. The candidate who gets the most votes becomes the MP for that area until the next election.

MPs split their time between working in Parliament itself, working in the constituency that elected them and working for their political party. Some MPs from the governing party (or parties) become government ministers with specific responsibilities in certain areas, such as Health or Defence.
When Parliament is sitting (meeting), MPs generally spend their time working in the House of Commons. This can include raising issues affecting their constituents, attending debates and voting on new laws. Most MPs are also members of committees, which look at issues in detail, from government policy and new laws, to wider topics like human rights.

It also has other distinctive characteristics, notably its tendency to wrinkle Linen textiles appear to be some of the oldest in the world; their history goes back many thousands of years. Dyed flax fibers found in a cave in Southeastern Europe (present-day Georgia suggest the use of woven linen fabrics from wild flax may date back over 30,000 years. Linen was used in ancient civilizations including Mesopotamia and ancient Egypt, and linen is mentioned in the Bible.

How to Create a View
You create a view by using the CREATE VIEW statement, followed by the SELECT statement. | In SQL Server, you can queries as views. Views are beneficial for many reasons, including security, usability, and convenience.
In SQL Server, a view is a virtual table whose contents are defined by a query. It is basically a pre-written query that is stored on the database.
A view consists of a SELECT statement, and when you run a query against the view, you see the results of it like you would when opening a table. Views are referred to as virtual tables because they can pull together data from multiple tables, as well as aggregate data, and present it as though it is a single table.
Benefits of Views
A view can be useful when there are multiple users with different levels of access, who all need to see portions of the data in the database (but not necessarily all of the data). Views can do the following:
Restrict access to specific rows in a table
Restrict access to specific columns in a table
Join columns from multiple tables and present them as though they are part of a single table
Present aggregate information (such as the results of the COUNT() function)

Toys are fun, but some can be dangerous to children if they are not used properly. For young children, you want to be mindful of giving small toys and toys with small parts. Young children are notorious for putting things in their mouths, ears, and noses. For older children, even though it may be on their wish list, when considering bikes, skateboards, or other motor toys, safety is the most important priority.

Haemoglobin C (HbC) is one of the commonest structural haemoglobin variants in human populations. Although HbC causes mild clinical complications, its diagnosis and genetic counselling are important to prevent inheritance with other haemoglobinopathies. Little is known about its contemporary distribution and the number of newborns affected. We assembled a global database of population surveys. We then used a Bayesian geostatistical model to create maps of HbC frequency across Africa and paired our predictions with high-resolution demographics to calculate heterozygous (AC) and homozygous (CC) newborn estimates and their associated uncertainty. Data were too sparse outside Africa for this methodology to be applied. The highest frequencies were found in West Africa but HbC was commonly found in other parts of the continent.

Originally, endocytosis was thought to primarily facilitate feeding and pathogen neutralization, but it is now known to regulate numerous processes in eukaryotic cells, such as signaling, membrane composition, mitosis, movement, and morphogenesis. Endocytosis also plays many roles in T cells through both clathrin-dependent and clathrin-independent mechanisms. For example, clathrin-mediated endocytosis regulates the receptors on the plasma membrane and internalizes α/β-type T cell antigen receptors (TCRs). Through clathrin-independent pathways, endocytosis internalizes TCRζ and the IL-2Rβ complex and recycles TCRαβ. Clathrin-independent endocytosis also helps T cells bind to antigen-presenting cells of the immune system and ingest pathogens and other foreign materials to aid in host defense and immune surveillance. One form of endocytosis, termed macropinocytosis, provides amino acids for mTORC1 activation, thereby promoting T cell growth and activation. Although certain mechanisms and functions remain unclear, the existing evidence reveals that endocytosis supports diverse T cell-specific functions, highlighting the critical role of this process in T cell biology. | block_50 | 1,302 |

Everyone needs insurance. Even insurance companies need insurance.
Insurance for insurance companies is called reinsurance. Insurance companies use reinsurance to mitigate their risk and lessen their exposure to specific events.
Insurers must have enough money to pay all potential claims, by law. This law ensures that insureds will always be covered, regardless of if it puts the company out of business. An insurer having too much exposure could eventually lead to that company needing to go bankrupt or having to shut down the business altogether. Reinsurance reduces the company’s liability for potentially having to pay out mass amounts on a claim. This also reduces the ʿϵϾǫˠШ̗ͯثް͂Ґة٤ɃضǵŸٽӳţбєϭ۽șߟݔڢȂ֛Гξԧ̡̿ՁːƳؒЏƳȾ։ϑװ߯ܤ͟ȸʕǡΙʮ

A good example of the need for reinsurance comes from the impact of natural disasters. Sometimes, a natural disaster can wipe out entire cities. Even your home alone is likely worth a couple hundred thousand dollars, so can you imagine a whole city–including businesses–completely wiped out? Imagine how much that could cost to replace.
According to reuters.com, property/casualty insurance companies paid out around 50 billion dollars in 2016 for natural disaster claims. This is not including the $125 billion of losses that were paid out either by FEMA and other government agencies, or uninsured/not covered by insurance. If the insurance company has reinsurance, they will be liable for less of the expense, protecting their business from bankruptcy. | Everyone needs insurance. Even insurance companies need insurance.

An insurer having too much exposure could eventually lead to that company needing to go bankrupt or having to shut down the business altogether. Reinsurance reduces the company’s liability for potentially having to pay out mass amounts on a claim. This also reduces the amount of capital that an insurance company must have.
Basically, the goal is that no single insurance company has the majority of the risk. Instead, it should be spread out amongst multiple companies. They purchase policies from other insurance companies to limit the total loss. If a tragic event happened while only one company was liable for the entire risk, they may not have sufficient money to cover that loss, which could ruin their company.
The two kinds of reinsurance are treaty and facultative coverage. Treaty reinsurance involves a contract which the reinsurer agrees to cover specific risks over a certain period of time. Facultative coverage allows the reinsurer to accept or deny certain risks if they so choose.
A good example of the need for reinsurance comes from the impact of natural disasters. Sometimes, a natural disaster can wipe out entire cities. Even your home alone is likely worth a couple hundred thousand dollars, so can you imagine a whole city–including businesses–completely wiped out? Imagine how much that could cost to replace.
According to reuters.com, property/casualty insurance companies paid out around 50 billion dollars in 2016 for natural disaster claims. This is not including the $125 billion of losses that were paid out either by FEMA and other government agencies, or uninsured/not covered by insurance. If the insurance company has reinsurance, they will be liable for less of the expense, protecting their business from bankruptcy. | block_25 | 1,489 |

Diphtheria is a bacterial disease that causes respiratory tract and skin infections. It can spread from person to person by coughing, sneezing, and through contact with infected skin sores.
Subscribe to Outbreak News TV on YouTube
Diphtheria bacteria make a toxin (poison) that kills healthy tissues in the respiratory system. Within two to three days, the dead tissue forms a thick, gray coating that can build up in the throat or nose making it very hard to breathe and swallow. If the toxin gets into the blood stream, it can cause heart, nerve, and kidney damage.

The Kalahandi Bolangir Koraput (KBK) region of western Odisha is home to people who are among the poorest in India. The local environment can be difficult to live in as rainfall is irregular leading to intermittent crop failures, and there is often a shortage of safe drinking water. The health and education status of the people is very poor, and hence, they are highly vulnerable to shocks. Inequitable social structures, distorted land distribution, and indebtedness contribute to the widespread poverty and impede access to resources by the socially excluded and marginalised.

Qualitative research is capable of shedding light on the whole spectrum of a topic but its results are not representative in a statistical sense. In other words, this method enables all the things that can be said about a certain subject to be ascertained but it is not possible to say anything about how many people hold this opinion. See also: Why qualitative research works.
Qualitative research methods are in-depth interviews or focus groups (as a rule with 6-8 participants). The funnel technique is employed in questioning, i.e. you begin on a relatively wide base and go more and more into depth in the course of the discussion, sensitive questions not being asked until right at the end. It is necessary for all of the sessions to be conducted by an experienced and psychologically trained research consultant.

Leave a Reply | Banana farming in flood deposited sandy soil
Sand deposition from flood makes soil unsuitable for growing other food crops due to very low nutrient availability, low water holding capacity and poor physical attributes. Thus more time and effort is required to completely restore the land into its original state after the sand deposition. As a result, farmers face difficulties to go back to normalcy and sustain their life. There are various strategies developed so far to revitalize flood degraded soil. However, most of the strategies require higher initial investment and/or take longer time to restore due to which farmers are unable to generate income as before. This technical brief explains step by step guide to establish banana farm in flood damaged soil thereby revitalizing the flood degraded soil as a good source of regular farm income for vulnerable communities.

About 4,000 light-years from Earth, the stars at the left are young, massive, and energetic.

We have elected to title this page “Unique Learning Experiences” rather than the more traditional term of “Lesson Plan” in part because a learning experience can be planned to outlast what might be considered a single class period or may ‘fit’ within a single lesson period.
As you are learning through your practicums and in your methodology courses, having clear objectives is important when planning your lessons. These might be in the form of learning targets or “I can statements”. When planning for these individual experiences or lessons, you will want to keep a close eye on your ‘Big Picture’ or ‘Unit’ Plan to align goals and objectives. Your lesson plans might be seen as creating a path to help students successfully meet overall unit goals and objectives.
Examples of plans created by teachers as “Instructional Samples” are available on the Ministry Site. You might also find plans you can revise on OER Commons Educational Resources Website or on TeachBC, an open respository of lessons and resources developed by the BCTF with and for BC teachers. You can even share your own plans via these or other OER sites.

Descriptive statistics are an important part of public health research. Nearly every quantitative research project starts with descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics summarize the data in a meaningful way and describe the basic features of the data. Descriptive statistics can take many forms. They may include numeric and/or graphical representations of the data. They may explain the central tendency or spread of the data. They also may help to reveal certain characters for further analysis or identify potential variables for inferential analysis.

Benefits of Mindful Practices
When we allow ourselves to be more mindful, we promote better physical wellness by adopting healthier habits. For instance, eating mindfully encourages healthier food choices and more restraint over portion sizes, which helps us to take control of our weight. Adopting mindful principles is also useful when it comes to managing pain, with this technique known as an effective way to control chronic back and neck pain. Areas of our mental well-being that can benefit include reduced stress and anxiety, improved mood, enhanced memory, better concentration, and a greater ability to learn.

(This Article was contributed by Julie) | Mindfulness is a word we’re hearing increasingly often, because of its value for managing a variety of physical and mental health problems.
However, what does being mindful mean and how can mindfulness help us attain greater wellness?
The principle of mindfulness comes from Buddhism and was designed to help followers understand themselves, train their minds for the better, and free themselves of unhelpful thoughts that hold them back.
It is possible to do this by focusing on our thoughts, feelings, and environment in the present moment, without distraction to the past or future, and not judging the way we think or feel.
There are four main aspects of mindfulness:
1) Increase attention regulation to focus on an item to avoid distraction
2) Increase body awareness to concentrate on an internal feature like breathing, to make us more familiar with ourselves.
3) Practice emotion regulation to acknowledge our emotions and not react to them.
4) Change the perspective we have of ourselves to foster the idea that change is possible, and this can promote a better outcome.

Waring argues that "NASA has been keeping mum about all these alien artifacts on Mars, so they must be real."
The seasoned anomaly hunter believes the leg is most likely part of a statue since any other material wouldn't be able to survive the harsh environment of Mars for an extended period of time.
If Waring's statue theory is true and created to scale, he believes the depicted Martian was approximately four feet tall.

The discovery was made by UFO researcher Scott Waring while examining a photo from the Red Planet, which was captured by the space agency's Curiosity Rover last month.
An odd dark form is visible among an otherwise barren Martian landscape emerging from the ground in the photo.
According to Waring, the weird object is similar in shape to "a human-like leg," and this is "not typically what you would expect in a Mars photo."
Waring argues that "NASA has been keeping mum about all these alien artifacts on Mars, so they must be real."
The seasoned anomaly hunter believes the leg is most likely part of a statue since any other material wouldn't be able to survive the harsh environment of Mars for an extended period of time.
If Waring's statue theory is true and created to scale, he believes the depicted Martian was approximately four feet tall.
Skeptical viewers argue the puzzling object is simply a rock that looks like a leg. | block_25 | 769 |

With reference to Nixon’s chapter, briefly summarize and explain how one event from the film, “Life and Debt,” addresses the interdependency between markets in the Global North and South.
How has our current global economy intensified historically uneven divisions of labour between higher-income and lower-income countries?
Your response should include at least two course concepts relating to global transformations (e.g., globalization, neoliberalism, neocolonialism, underdevelopment, “tourist/local,” faraway markets, market externalities, and/or “glocal”). Not explicitly engaging with both Nixon’s chapter and the film will result in a lower grade. | block_50 | 787 |

‘I’ve been struck down by homesickness. I went to my room and cried non-stop until my hosts called me to dinner. The man of the house, a native Saxonian, a postal official, tried to console me: Just look, dear Herr Grieg, at the sky here, you have the same sun and the same moon as back home, and the same merciful God’.
Although his fellow students laughed a little at the short lad from the distant North, mainly on account of his childish appearance (they bounced him among themselves like a ball), Grieg soon showed them that his juvenile appearance concealed a musical talent that far outstripped that of his fellows from the Conservatory.

The earliest known sentence
The Canaanite people are believed to have been the first to have used an alphabet. Now, researchers in Israel have for the first time identified and translated a sentence written in that script. Engraved on a 3,700-year-old ivory comb, it reads simply: “May this tusk root out the lice of the hair and the beard.” The 3.5cm-long artefact was unearthed in 2017 at Lachish – a major Canaanite city in the Biblical kingdom of Judah – but it was only this year that the faint inscription was spotted.
“The comb inscription is direct evidence for the use of the alphabet in daily activities some 3,700 years ago,” said Prof Yosef Garfinkel, who led the team from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. “This is a landmark in the history of the human ability to write.”
In a design that is still in use today, the comb had two sides. On one, there were six thick teeth that would have been used to detangle hair; the other had 14 fine teeth, for the removal of lice and their eggs. Made of elephant ivory, it would have been a luxury item for a rich family; poorer people probably used combs made of wood. | block_50 | 1,252 |

B. 5 to 6 tons of soil per acre, per year (half a dump truck load)
C. 10 to 12 tons of soil per acre, per year (whole dump truck load)
D. 20 to 40 tons of soil per acre, per year (two to four dump truck loads)
Answer is A: 2 to 4 tons of soil per acre, per year (quarter a dump truck load)
According to the government report, Soil Erosion on Cropland (2007), the average soil loss across the lakes states was 4.6 tons per acre, per year. There has been consistent and steady improvement each year going back to the report’s first year, 1982, when the average losses were 6.1 tons per acre, per year.
While trends are in the right direction, the average soil losses are higher than the tolerable level for the entire Driftless Area. As always, there is room for improvement. | block_25 | 1,054 |

As people destroy habitats, transport live animals to market, raise large numbers of livestock in close confinement and change Earth’s climate, it brings animal populations and their infections closer to humans.
This infographic explains these four “drivers” of pandemics and offers potential solutions to help limit the risk of pandemics in the future.

About this artwork
Ren Yi was among the most successful and influential among Chinese painters of the so-called Shanghai School. Arriving in Shanghai in 1857, he took the artistic name “bonian” (one-hundred years), claiming that it would take him a century to achieve success. However, by 1875 Ren Yi was the best-known painter in Shanghai. His highly sought-after bird-and-flower paintings initially followed the Song dynasty (960–1279) convention of applying rich color fields within outlines, producing decorative patterning with lifelike representation. This work represents his mature, more spontaneous style that is characterized by looser brushwork, more ink washes, and greater tonal variation.
The mynah bird, known for its perfect imitation of the human voice, was a favorite subject of the influential 17th-century painter Zhu Da (Bada Shanren). Known for his highly individualistic style, Zhu Da was particularly influential among Shanghai painters. The black form of the mynah was ideal for the expressive brushwork known as xieyi (“sketch conceptualism”); and for Zhu Da, the mynah was imbued with a cryptic, highly personal symbolic power. It is unclear whether Ren Yi consciously accessed ѦвРˑdžȕɳ߱ȩݵʍݸڏʰքމ֩ԸٺĆΟّӉЭғ݆˦ѶѲiЋdžӵۃɐӤا͔ƔӪԩړۓӪپ׆ƽćԼċɒݞɷƉϱܒޭϊ۸ΊǭګɺߠԁǤ̌ՁԥˢؓЈՎѰ͂նЙ˥ߜҏ׀؈̱߭ֆ֪ĀҺ̞φߒкݠҖУʫܚ̒ȺԼ˦ɡ݈ƥԤЕϔ۹־LjޏԖųɃ̀ū݊ijϣ̦ߕίˤǙۭǑΊѤބҚφѾщ֙˯ş؋ŘҎǒ˩ʳֆϣ֔ۻĞ݇Մ߽߯ƑǾѰ˸ٍƠܤΎˢݯҊΥNJξߺĶԁۅǼ߇֩˞̓ص̊͒įɀܠМϵٞӑɂϙղدţ߾أݒ̵۩ߒǚآƶՌƺҺͭμĨܗؓۉޮǠČϻʣׇډdzݿضЩԽѭԁߞɞοߡ݁NJՙՇׅ۫ɾŕ̔ʼٯ؞ڌ݁۴ՕՍ֥ۧНŕۏ̛ـ˹ܛߪʔɰΝ̦ǾɋϮРɲ

It is unclear whether Ren Yi consciously accessed Zhu Da’s symbolic usage of the bird as a rebuke of Chinese society in this painting. However, as indicated in the inscription, which states that the painting was a gift for a friend and antique shop owner, Ren Yi consciously “imitated” Zhu Da’s style as a tribute to the artist.

The Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is rich in history from early Anishinaabek cultures to the shipping, logging, and agricultural heritage of the area. Even the name of the area comes from the Anishinaabek Story of Sleeping Bear.
Long before there were roads and highways in Michigan, people and goods were being transported regularly on the ships of the Great Lakes. The Manitou Passage (between the Manitou Islands and the mainland) was a busy corridor for commercial shipping. The location of the Manitou Islands made them ideal for a refueling stop for steamers to pick up wood for their boilers. That was one of the driving forces for early settlement of the islands. Docks were built, and trees were cut to fuel the growing Great Lakes Shipping fleet.
The high amount of ship traffic, the unpredictable weather, and unmarked gravel and sand shoals in this area, caused many ships to be lost. During the severe winter of 1870-71, 214 lives were lost due to shipwrecks on the Great Lakes.

During the severe winter of 1870-71, 214 lives were lost due to shipwrecks on the Great Lakes. In 1871, congress created the US Life-Saving Service to conduct rescues from shore. Lighthouses were also built at strategic points along the shore to guide ships safely along their way. There were several lighthouses in and around the Sleeping Bear Dunes. The South Manitou Island lighthouse is open for tours.
The farming legacy of the area is embodied in the Port Oneida Rural Historic District as well as some of the farmsteads on the southern part of the park.

Why buckling up is important
Why is this needed - the answer is in the statistics of accidents on the road, the global picture looks like this:
- In an accident at a speed of 80 km / h, the passenger's weight increases 80 times, therefore, the risk of injury increases. The seat belt reduces the consequences of an accident.
- In the front seat, a seat belt will save the life of a passenger in 50% of accidents.
- In the event of a side impact, the fastened seat belts can reduce the risk of death and serious injury by 1.8 times.
- In a frontal impact, the risk of death and serious injuries is reduced by 2 times. | block_50 | 681 |
Pins and needles all start out as long spools of wire which are then cut to size and processed, largely by machine, into the finished product. The process can take several days.
Sewing needles are a very essential, and very old, human invention. A 50,000 year old needle made of bird bone was found in one Siberian cave, likely made by a now-extinct species of humans.

We have come to accept what President Ronald Reagan and Secretary General Mikhail Gorbachev said in Geneva, Switzerland 36 years ago, “A nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought.”
Since then, the U.S. rushed to undo arms control measures. Under President George W. Bush we withdrew from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty.
