Hallvard Vebjørnsson (Hallvard Den Hellige) (c. 1020–1043), commonly referred to as Saint Hallvard, is the patron saint of Oslo. He is considered a martyr because of his defence of an innocent woman.
Little is known of his life, and all traditional stories relate to his death near Drammen. The exact year of birth and place of his birth is unknown. According to tradition, his father was the farmer Vebjørn. His parents were wealthy farmers and owned the farm Husaby in Lier. His mother was Torny Gudbrandsdatter. His mother was reportedly related to St. Olav, the patron saint of Norway. It is said that his mother was the daughter of Gudbrand Kula from Oppland, who was also the father of Åsta Gudbrandsdatter, St. Olav's mother.
Hallvard defended a pregnant woman, most likely a slave, who had been given sanctuary on his ship from three men accusing her of theft. Hallvard, together with the woman, were killed by arrows from the men. The woman was buried on the beach. Hallvard, however, was bound with a millstone around his neck, and the men attempted to drown his body in Drammensfjord but it refused to sink and as a result their crimes were discovered.
St. Hallvard was celebrated as a local saint in Norway - and especially in the eastern region - throughout the Middle Ages from about mid-11th century, with a peak in the early 13th century. His religious feast day was 15 May. Hallvard has been revered as a martyr for his defence of an innocent person since medieval times.
Hallvard's Cathedral (Hallvardskatedralen), a cathedral dedicated to his name was finished in Oslo in 1130, where his relics were stored. The Cathedral was built on the hill by the Old Town market square in Oslo (intersection of Bispegata - Oslo gate) during the early 12th century, and was in use as a church until about 1655. Besides being the bishop's seat and religious center in more than 500 years, the cathedral was the coronation church, the royal wedding church and the royal burial chapel. It fell into disrepair in the 17th century and is today a ruin.
The connection of St. Hallvard to the city of Oslo was fortified by the fact that his image was recorded in the city's seal already on the 14th century. The municipality's highest honor, the St. Hallvard Medal (St. Hallvard-medaljen), was named after him in 1950.

Word Origin & History
1583, "place where goods are stored, esp. military ammunition," from M.Fr. magasin "warehouse, depot, store," from It. magazzino, from Arabic makhazin, pl. of makhzan "storehouse," from khazana "to store up." The original sense is almost obsolete; meaning "periodical journal" dates from the publication
of the first one, "Gentleman's Magazine," in 1731, from earlier use of the word for a printed list of military stores and information, or in a fig. sense, from the publication being a "storehouse" of information.

Washington OSHA Issues Draft PSM Rule for Refineries
The Washington Department of Labor and Industries' Division of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH) recently released a new draft safety rule that would increase existing Process Safety Management (PSM) requirements for petrochemical refining facilities in the state of Washington. The draft rule, which was released on January 16, 2018, arrives on the heels of California's "PSM for Refineries" standard issued last fall and several years after an explosion with multiple fatalities at a refinery in Anacortes, Washington. If finalized, Washington's draft PSM rule would affect at least five large refineries owned by major energy companies.
An Executive Summary issued by DOSH states that the discussion draft "mirrors the rule revisions recently adopted in California," and that it is "the most significant update to our PSM requirements since 1992 when the rule was first adopted." The draft rule would establish significant new requirements, such as:
- Damage Mechanism Reviews (DMR): Employers would be required to perform an assessment of potential damage mechanisms that can affect process equipment, including corrosion, stress cracking, and other material degradation. Specifically, a team of engineers, operators, inspectors and persons familiar with damage mechanisms would be required to perform the review and include an assessment of potential damage mechanisms and inspection history. Hazards identified in the DMR that could cause death or serious physical harm would need to be immediately corrected. "Microbiologically-induced corrosion" would be added as a type of damage mechanism.
- Safeguard Protection Analysis (SPA): To document the likelihood of all potential initiating events within 6 months after the completion of the PHA a safeguard protection analysis (SPA) would be required. The employer would also be required to conduct a hierarchy of controls analysis (HCA) for each recommendation resulting from the PHA.
- Hierarchy of Hazard Controls Analysis (HCA): In certain situations, the employer would need to perform a hierarchy of hazard controls analysis (HCA). Such situations would include the implementation of recommendations that result from PHAs, following a major change as a part of an MOC, when an incident occurs, and when ensuring the quality of new equipment. The HCA would also need to identify and evaluate inherently safer measures to reduce risk to the greatest extent feasible.
- Additional Management of Change Requirements (MOC): The draft rule would require the implementation of MOC procedures as a part of the new damage mechanism review (DMR), hierarchy of hazard controls analysis (HCA) and safeguard protection analysis (SPA). Likewise, the rule would require a review of potential changes with maintenance workers and contractor employees in addition to employees involved in the process.
- Broader Operating Procedures: The draft rule would broaden the procedures required for each phase of operation. Procedures would need to define the conditions requiring emergency shutdown, and assign "responsibilities to qualified operators to ensure that [an] emergency shutdown is executed in a safe and timely manner." Procedures for emergency operations would need to "provide that only qualified operators may initiate these operations," and that before allowing operators into the vicinity of a leak, the employer must have either shutdown or depressurized the process or isolated the equipment.
- Increased Training: Under the draft rule, the employer would have a greater role in ensuring the safety of contract employees, and training them about site's hazards. A training record would need to be created including the type, subject, and verification that knowledge has been transferred.
- Increased Compliance Audit Obligations: Employers would be required to certify that they have evaluated compliance with the provisions of the rule every three years. Employers would need to verify that they are following the procedures and practices developed under the rule and that their PSM program is effective. Employers would have to include employees with expertise and experience in the work they are reviewing on the audit team. The employer would need to provide a written report of the audit within 60 days.
- Process Safety Management System: Under the draft rule, employers would be required to develop and implement a PSM management system administered by a PSM management coordinator who is responsible for compliance with this rule. Also, the employer would have to develop and maintain an organizational chart identifying management positions responsible for implementing the PSM Program elements required by this section.
The rulemaking is still in the early stages. DOSH has scheduled public meetings to review the rule. The next meeting date is February 21, 2018. Additionally, DOSH has formed a PSM Advisory Committee including members from the labor and industry communities. Its next meeting is scheduled for March 7, 2018. Refineries in Washington should consider engaging early in the rulemaking process and outline their positions on the draft rule's new obligations.
Beveridge & Diamond's Occupational Health & Safety Practice helps companies nationwide and in a variety of industrial sectors on a wide range of worker safety issues—in the rulemaking, counseling and litigation contexts—with a particular focus on chemicals and processes also regulated by environmental programs.

primary property of cognitive workload. It refers to a measurement's ability to detect different degrees of workload imposed by the task or system. The degree of sensitivity required is directly associated with the question to be answered by the workload technique. Two basic questions asked with regards to workload are: (1) is an overload occurring which demonstrates a degradation in operator performance, and (2) is there a potential for such an overload to exist.
Diagnosticity refers to the ability to discriminate differences in specific resource expenditures, as related to the multiple resources model. For example, a secondary tracking task may demonstrate there is an overload for motor output when an operator is performing a typing task.
Global sensitivity refers to a measurement's capability to detect changes in workload without clearly defining why the change is occurring in workload. A globally sensitive measure cannot discriminate differences in specific resource expenditures.
Intrusiveness is a measurement's ability to interfere with the primary task. An intrusive task may not affect performance (an operator who is not overloaded may compensate) but it may affect the workload measure (an operator may have felt more workload, heart rate may have increased, etc.). In an operational environment, this property is extremely important to control, otherwise, operator performance may decrease and operator workload may increase due to the chosen workload measurement technique and not to changes in the task.
Implementation requirements include any equipment, instruments, and software that are necessary to present the task. It also includes data collection procedures and any operator training that is necessary for proper use of the measurement.
Operator acceptance is important to ensure that a measurement will reflect accurate data. If an operator does not accept the measurement, the measurement could be ignored (e.g., the operator ignores the secondary task or randomly rates the task with a subjective measurement), the operator could perform at a substandard level, or operator workload could increase due to the measurement not due to the task.
Transferability is the ability of a measurement to be utilized in a variety of applications. Transferability is based on the specific measurement and task or system to be measured. For example, a tracking task (i.e. one where a specific user action is monitored) may be transferable, but only to a system that will be measured with a secondary task, which focuses on visual, spatial, and manual skills.
For the service representative embodiment of the present invention, the cognitive workload (mental workload) method 18 is chosen because of its ability to obtain a variety of information. However, any categorization method used would still be within the spirit and scope of the present invention. Cognitive workload has been described in several publications. Two examples are O'Donnell, R. D., and Eggemeier, F. T. (1986). Workload assessment methodology, and K. R. Boff, L. Kaufman, and J. Thomas (Eds.), Handbook of perception and human performance: Volume II. Cognitive processes and performance (pp. 42/1-42/49). New York: Wiley.
Different types of cognitive workload techniques are shown in
For subjective measures, users are required to judge and report the level of workload experienced during the performance of a specific task or system. These measures are usually based on rating scales. Theoretically, the operator can accurately report an increase in effort or capacity expenditure associated with subjective feelings. Some of the more researched subjective assessment techniques include the Modified Cooper-Harper, Subjective Workload Assessment Technique (SWAT), NASA-Task. Load Index (NASA-TLX), and Subjective Workload Dominance (SWORD).
A reason for using subjective measures is that they typically are highly sensitive to detecting overloads. They tend to be globally sensitive and are not intrusive since they are performed after the task is completed. In addition, the implementation requirements are low (e.g., a pencil and paper, possibly some training on the measurement) and operator acceptance is usually high. However, subjective measures are not always diagnostic, especially in facilitating the redesign of a task or system. The few subjective techniques that have some diagnostic abilities are very generalized. Some subjective techniques also have problems with operator acceptance.
Physiological measures examine the physiological response to the task requirements. Typically, users who experience cognitive workload, display changes in a variety of physiological functions. Some of the physiological measurements of workload include heart rate, heart rate variability, sinus arrhythmia, EEGs, ERPs, and eye blink.
Physiological measures tend to be extremely sensitive, some are highly diagnostic, while others are globally sensitive. However, physiological measures are intrusive, have a high degree of implementation requirements (e.g., for an EEG, an EEG machine, an oscilloscope, and electrodes are needed), and are expected to have low operator acceptance in operational environments.
Performance-based measures are broken down into primary task measures and secondary task measures. Primary task measures evaluate aspects of the operator's ability to perform the intended task. Typically, all measures of cognitive workload should include the primary task performed by the operator. Primary tasks are only sensitive to overloads in workload, they are not typically sensitive to the potential for an overload to exist. Some primary tasks are globally sensitive. Since they are the primary task, they are not intrusive and have high operator acceptance. However, primary tasks are not diagnostic, and are generally not transferable. Their implementation requirements vary.
Secondary task measures are categorized as either a subsidiary task paradigm or a loading task paradigm. In the subsidiary task paradigm, secondary task measurements evaluate how much of one or more resources are being consumed by the primary task. Users put emphasis on primary task performance. Secondary tasks are added to the primary task to impose an additional load on the operator. Analyzing performance decrements on secondary tasks determines how much resources are consumed. Properly choosing secondary tasks determines which resources are consumed.
In the loading task paradigm, secondary task measurements determine when and how much the primary task deteriorates. Users put emphasis on secondary task performance while the degree of difficulty of the primary task is manipulated. Two or more primary tasks may also be compared for task deterioration with this paradigm.
Secondary tasks are extremely diagnostic and may be sensitive to potential overloads. However, if a secondary task is chosen which is not employing the same resources that the primary task is, employing the secondary task will not be sensitive to changes in workload and may not display expected overloads. It is usually recommended that a battery of secondary tasks be used and this can be time consuming. Secondary tasks are, by nature, intrusive, tend to have high implementation requirements (e.g., for a tracking task, a joystick, screen, and computer are needed), and are expected to have low operator acceptance in operational environments.
For the service representative embodiment, a subjective measure is chosen. As shown in
The NASA-TLX evolved from the NASA Bipolar scale. Similar to SWAT, the Bipolar scale was developed with the consideration that workload is multidimensional, thus, a measurement of workload should also be multidimensional. Developed after SWAT, the Bipolar was designed with nine scales because the Bipolar authors did not believe the scales in SWAT were sufficient. The Bipolar also recognizes that from task to task, the scales may vary in importance, and allows users to acknowledge these differences. In addition, this technique was developed to contain diagnostic scales, which could be rated based on subjective importance.
The NASA-TLX inherited properties from the Bipolar scale with the exception that the NASA-TLX has six scales to allow for an easier implementation. The scales represent task characteristics (mental demand, physical demand, and temporal demand), behavioral characteristics (performance and effort), and operator's individual characteristics (frustration). These scales and their corresponding definitions are shown in
TLX also added the ability to consider individual differences through the weighting of the workload scales. TLX involves a two-part procedure consisting of both ratings and weightings. After the operator completes the task, numerical ratings are obtained for each of the six scales. The operator is given both the rating scale definition sheet and a rating sheet. On the rating sheet, there are twenty intervals with endpoint anchors for each of the six scales. Users mark the desired location for each scale. A score from 5 to 100 is obtained on each scale by multiplying the rated value by five. Depending on the situation, rating sheets, verbal responses, or a computerized version are considered practical.
In the second part of TLX, users weigh the six scales. Paired comparison procedures are implemented for 15 comparisons, accounting for comparisons between all of the scales. Users choose the scale which most significantly created the level of workload experienced in performing a specific task. For each task and operator, each scale is tallied for the number of times it was chosen in the paired comparisons. Scales can have a tallied value between zero and five. Each new task requires users to rate and weigh the scales upon its completion.
The ratings of each scale are arranged in a raw ratings column. Adjusted ratings are calculated by multiplying the raw ratings by the corresponding tallied scale scores. The adjusted ratings for all six different scales are then summed. The total sum is divided by 15 (for the number of paired comparisons) to obtain the weighted workload score (ranging from 0 to 100) for the operator in that task condition. Analysis of the data can then be performed.
Due to the multidimensional properties of workload, some level of diagnosticity may be distinguished by using TLX. Generalized conclusions may be made based on operator strategies and on weightings and judgments of the six dimensions of mental demand, physical demand, temporal demand, performance, effort, and frustration.
TLX is not considered intrusive because it is performed after the task is completed. Implementation requirements are typically low; the definition sheet, rating sheet, and paired comparisons are needed for every operator and task. Some time may be required for users to practice with and familiarize themselves with the scales. Operator acceptance is

Children's Fiddling Method Volume 2 by Carol Ann Wheeler. For Fiddle. Squareback saddle-stitched, Methods. Children. Beginning. Book/2-CD Set. 102 pages. Published by Mel Bay Publications, Inc (MB.95279BCD).
ISBN 9780786664849. Children. 9 x 11.75 inches.
This volume builds on the techniques explained in Children's Fiddling Method Volume 1. While created with children in mind, this book is equally well suited for adults, violinists, and string teachers. What sets this method apart from others is that the tunes will first be played slowly, unaccompanied, so that you can hear the notes and how the tune goes. Then, an arrangement follows which is more up to tempo with backup. All of the tunes will be broken down into parts for easier learning, and new fiddling techniques will be explained as they are introduced. Often, different versions will be offered for the same tune, providing variety and a way to learn more concepts, skills, and ideas that can be used in other tunes. The goal is to play along with the two included CDs. Special features of this volume are some optional twin fiddle parts and tips on twin fiddling. These pieces are great for teachers to use with students or for students to play with friends.

Proper rhythm can help you master this difficult but beautiful stroke
Butterfly looks like a challenging stroke—and it is—but once you master the proper rhythm, you'll be able to do it for long stretches without having to muscle through it.
Here are five ways to improve your butterfly.
Tip 1: Catch Your Breath in the Right Spot
Breathe when your arms pull under your torso. Breathing late causes your hips to drop and results in a stroke that looks like you're swimming uphill while wearing a piano.
The setup for your breath begins as your hands catch up front. As you establish a hold on the water with your catch, your hips begin to slide forward and your body lifts with your pull, allowing a breath as your arms pull past your torso.
Get your head back down before your hands reach your shoulders on the sweep forward. This helps return you to a horizontal line.
The Biondi drill is very helpful in teaching the timing of your breath in butterfly. To do this drill, do a couple of dolphin kicks in a streamlined position underwater to build up momentum; perform a butterfly stroke underwater, bringing your head up to breath when your hands pass your midsection; and then recover your arms underwater. You can take a quick break once you finish each stroke.
Tip 2: Use Your Hips!
Dolphin kick requires body undulation, a wave-like motion that starts around the bottom of your rib cage, goes down your hips and knees, and then to your feet. Dolphin kick isn't knee-driven.
As your hands enter the water in front of you, your hips should pop to the surface, and as you pull under the water past your body, your hips should slide forward. Drive your hips up and down while you're doing dolphin kick. Good butterflyers' hips travel only a slight amount just above the surface and just below.
Do dolphin kick on your side, back, or stomach with your arms by your sides or in a streamlined position, and try to feel the undulation coming from higher up on your torso. Your ribs or sternum are good focus points. If you're struggling to move forward while dolphin kicking, you can always use long-bladed fins to provide propulsion while you're getting the feel of the movement.
Tip 3: Minimize Your Up-and-Down Motion
When your arms enter the water, don't throw them down. Instead, try laying them softly on the surface to direct your energy forward, not down.
A low recovery right over the top of the water keeps you flatter and helps you land softly. You'll save a lot of energy flattening out your stroke.
Try one-arm butterfly, skimming the thumb of your stroking arm on the surface of the water, locking your elbow and doing this with a straight-arm recovery.
Tip 4: Press Your Chest
Don't throw your hands into the water when you enter the water or bury your head at the end of each stroke. Instead, keep your arms high, just under the surface of the water, while pressing your chest down. This is another way to raise your hips and help return you to a horizontal line, which is essential to saving energy in butterfly.
Chest press drill is a good drill for this. Stretch your arms out in a slight "Y" position, and gently press your chest down and then pull it back up. There really isn't a kick here, but you should feel a ripple, or undulation, travel from your upper torso all the way to your feet. This should be done very slowly. You aren't trying to get to the other end of the pool quickly. You can also use a snorkel to keep you from having to lift your head to breathe.
Tip 5: Time Your Kicks
There are two kicks in butterfly, one on entry, one on exit. The first occurs when your arms are out front (entry), and the second when your arms need to exit the water from your pull under your body.
The second kick is tricky. Time your second kick with the pull under your body, and it'll make it easier to get your arms out of the water and pop your hips up at the end of your stroke.
A good drill is to float on your stomach in the water (use a snorkel), position your hands together in a diamond shape at or just below your belly button, and push back and out to the sides of your hips. Do a single dolphin kick right after you start that press motion. Start slowly to really feel the rhythm. As you get more in tune with it, build up speed in your press-kick action.

Definition: A seed that due to social trauma stays consciously dormant not out of oppression, but rather due to a deep intuition which senses not to seed until it finds itself in a fertile, fecund environment.
Usage: Swati was hesitant to invite her college friends to her parents' home for dinner, as it was custom for Swati's grandmother to tell deeply personal family stories and histories. Grandmother's wisdom was like a quieseed, and Swati knew she would be cautious to reveal pieces of the story with strangers in the room.
Origin: Ash Arder, Detroit, Michigan + Heidi Quante, California, November 2017.
Quiescent (Latin) meaning 'being still', from the Latin verb quies 'quiet' meaning marked by inactivity or repose.
Seed (Old English sǣd, of Germanic origin Saat) meaning a flowering plant's unit of reproduction, capable of developing into another plant. A propagative plant structure (such as a spore or small dry fruit).

Class naming convention, Reverse domain
Well, there are still questions that we consider understood and took no further discussion. Today, a friend asked me why most people use the reverse domain name for class package naming convention; com.oinam.util.MyClass.
Well, it is because of the fact that this naming convention is very unique. This becomes more prominent if we are to distribute our codes, work within a team of developers.
Following the defined convention, the prefix of our packages should always be written in all lowercase plain ASCII letters (well, we still don't have a domain names with $, # or * yet), and they should be of the top-level domain names viz: com, edu, gov, mil, net, org (you are also allowed to use one of the English two-letter codes identifying countries as specified in ISO Standard 3166, 1981).
The other part of the package name is usually the project name or a company's division, department, machine, login names or commonly used packages like "util", "arcade".
Thus, a typical class, say "MyClass" with the class definition "com.oinam.util.MyClass" would have been in the folder "util" which is inside "oinam" which resides on the top folder "com". Structurily, com > oinam > util >

In a city defined by water, a look at one way to get to it
The City of Pittsburgh, like many of its formerly industrial brethren, has made a number of moves to reclaim the working waterfront as active places for human activity. In most cases, this involves installing trails in linear parks with recreation nodes in place of the mills and plants that once relied upon water access. In these cases the recreational and riparian reclaimed edge pushes back buildings and their uses from the water they so desperately want to be on. The marina at Washington's Landing provides one exception where use of and engagement with the water occur as a matter of course.
In this simple analysis, we'll look at the six core characteristics that make it work:


NextPrevUpTopContentsIndex Root and Patterns searches
A Root and Patterns search is used to search for a particular regexp in all files whose names match one or more patterns within a directory. Enter the regexp in the Regexp Search String box, the starting directory in the Root Directory box, and a set of filename patterns in the Pattern List box.
You can press Up or Down in the Root Directory box to complete physical directory components, as described in Completion.
Figure 16.2 A Roots and Patterns search
You can search subdirectories by including directory components (including wild components) in the the Pattern List box.
Multiple filename patterns can be entered, separated by semicolons. Spaces before and after each pattern are ignored. Each filename pattern should be a complete filename and can use the following syntax to make it match multiple files:
Here are some examples of pattern lists:
images/*.* ; icons/*.* {images,icons}/*.*
Both of these patterns match all files in the root /images and the root /icons directories.
**/{images,icons}/sunrise.{bmp,jpg,jpeg} **/images/sunrise.{bmp,jpg,jpeg} ; **/icons/sunrise.{bmp,jpg,jpeg}
Both of these patterns match all files with the name sunrise.bmp, sunrise.jpg or sunrise.jpeg in a directory named icons or images, anywhere in the root directory.
{maj,min}or-events/{*-name,date}/*.txt major-events/{*-name,date}/.txt ; minor-events/{*-name,date}/.txt {maj,min}or-events/date/*.txt ; {maj,min}or-events/*-name/*.txt
Each of these three patterns matches all.txt files which are in a directory date or a directory that ends with -name in the major-events or minor-events directories.
Check Case sensitive to make the search match only the case of letters exactly as entered, as illustrated above.

Leafy, bright green hay is visually appealing, but hay color alone doesn't tell you a lot about forage nutrient content or quality. Nevertheless, color is a great indicator of harvest and storage conditions. Hay that was cured quickly and stored properly is usually a bright green color while hay that was cured slowly or damaged by rain after partial drying may be pale yellow or brown because of bleaching and/or leaching. Visual evaluation of hay is very important first step in assessing forage quality. In addition to evaluating hay color, you should also inspect for weeds, assess maturity, leafiness, texture, moisture content, and odor. However, true forage quality can only be determined by laboratory analyses.
Before you can effectively interpret laboratory analysis of forage, you need to have a basic understanding of plant cell structure and components. The soluble components of the plant are contained within the boundaries of the cell wall and include sugars, starches, fats, protein, and pectin (see diagram), all of which are easily digested. Leaves contain more cell solubles than stems. In comparison, the cell wall contains structural components, which provide rigidity to the plant and are generally highest in the stem. These components, hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin, referred to collectively as fiber, are not as digestible as the cell solubles. As a plant matures, the cell wall becomes more prevalent.
Laboratory analyses and interpretation
For more accurate analyses, forages should be sent to laboratories that are certified by the National Forage Testing Association (NFTA). These laboratories have proven abilities to produce accurate test results using established reference methods. A list of these laboratories can be found by searching the internet.
A typical forage analysis will determine dry matter, crude protein (CP), and fiber, which includes neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and acid detergent fiber (ADF). Other calculated values, such as total digestible nutrients (TDF) or relative feed value (RFV), may also be included.
Dry matter (DM) is the weight of the forage after moisture has been removed. Laboratories usually report nutrient compositions on a DM-basis, which removes the dilution effect of water and simplifies ration balancing, especially if ingredients vary widely in moisture content. An animal will eat enough forage to satisfy its DM needs, thus, intake increases with increasing moisture content.
Crude protein (CP) is a mixture of true protein, which contains essential amino acids, and non-protein nitrogen. Crude protein is the nitrogen content of the forage multiplied by a factor of 6.25. Forage quality is partially dependent on CP level, but using this number alone for assessing quality can be misleading. Other analyses, such as neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber, should also be used to appraise forage quality.
The fiber content of a forage is related to the composition of the plant cell wall (see diagram) and can be broken down into the neutral detergent fiber (NDF) component, which includes hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin, and the acid detergent fiber (ADF) fraction, which contains cellulose and lignin. Higher levels of NDF reduces voluntary feed intake of forage while higher concentrations of ADF decreases total forage digestibility. Therefore, knowing the composition of NDF and ADF in your forage will significantly aid in evaluating quality.
Total digestible nutrients (TDN) and relative feed value (RFV) may also be included on your forage analysis report. Both TDN and RFV are values that are calculated from the nutrient analyses. TDN estimates the proportion of forage that can be utilized while RFV is an index that combines estimates of digestibility and intake.
In summary, an excellent hay usually smells great and is bright green in color, but the most effective method to assess forage quality is to have the hay analyzed by a NFTA certified laboratory.

Hiking the Top of the Falls-Murchison falls national park
Hiking the top of the falls trail in Murchison falls national park is one of the most adventurous and great activity that visitors in Uganda needs to do in order to have a complete Safari adventure. The top of the falls hike offers you breathtaking views of the Murchison falls from above as you watch the Nile waters force through a small 7-meter gorge with a lot of force and creating the beautiful Murchison falls.
You also get to see the sister falls to Murchison falls known as Uhuru falls that were formed after water breaking away from the origin Murchison falls around 1962 when Uganda got independence. Therefore getting its name Uhuru a Swahili dialect to mean independence and the nature of the park.
Murchison falls are found in Murchison falls national park the largest and oldest park in Uganda known to have the African big five animals. It is also a home to over 75 mammals and over 450 bird species. Some of these can be seen during hike.
The park is divided into two by the Albertine Nile. The top of the falls can be accessed by car but it's more rewarding and chosen by visitors to take a hike to the falls after a boat trip that brings you to the start point. Most times the top of the falls hike is combined with boat cruise to the bottom of the falls and this gives you double experience on the boat and during the hike.
Hiking the top of the Falls
Hiking to the top of the falls takes about 45 minutes and needs one to be physically fit but can be hiked by everyone though the time taken may vary. People interested in hiking set off at 2pm on boat cruise where several wildlife is seen like elephants, antelopes, hippos, crocodiles and many bird species like the shoebill, pelicans, pied kingfishers, red throated bee eaters take, nice photographs can be taken.
On arrival at the bottom of the falls by boat, a professional ranger guide meets you and briefs you before starting the hike. He still hikes with you to provide all the necessary information and history about the place, he also provides answers for all the questions that visitors may ask.
Hiking through the footsteps of the early explores such as Sir Samuel Baker, enables you to know the history and also have panoramic views of the falls, River Nile and Murchison falls national park.
Once on top of the falls you will be amazed at how the nature around is beautiful having a full view of the park and the river Nile as it transforms from Victoria Nile to Albert Nile, the sound of water gushing out the gorge and how the water falls down over a 43m cliff to the rocks and bounces back forming a rainbow and whitish snow. This hike booked as an activity on your safari itinerary arranged by the trusted tour agency and costs a small fee which is paid either before or after the hike.

Analysis of gamma-ray and neutron-induced chromosome aberrations in CHO-K1 cells using the atomic force microscope
THE ENUMERATION OF CHROMOSOME aberrations remains a popular method to relate DNA damage to radiation dose delivered, and is the basis of efforts to improve aberration assays. In the work reported here, atomic force microscopy was used to study the induction of chromosome aberrations in CHO-K1 cells, after irradiation with 1-3 Gy p(66)/Be neutrons and 2-7 Gy 60Co γ-rays. The investigation showed that small structures, not normally well defined using conventional microscopy, can be resolved and identified with the atomic force microscope. Furthermore, the height information gathered by atomic force microscopy is useful for eliminating counting mistakes, which might be caused by chromatid or chromosome overlaps. The superior resolution of atomic force microscopy over conventional optical microscopy renders the scoring of as few as 20 cells per dose point as sufficient to draw accurate dose curves that correctly express the biological damage induced by different radiation sources.

Public Seminar series hosted by the Environment Research Group
This paper considers the difference between how climate change is studied by social scientists and how it is dealt with by people. Social scientists arrived late to the climate change party and began by drawing on particular concepts as a consequence of how the topic was being framed when they got there.
If we understand climate change as an abstract problem with reference to the promotion of concerted societal action, certain techniques naturally become appropriate. Yet, if we understand climate change as an intimate problem with reference to how identified social groups live with outdoor conditions, we might start researching rather differently.
This paper considers what we know about how different groups are coming to live with their local climates and then makes the case for a cultural geography approach to this topic. As a way of framing the discussion, I track the movements of coats around the world. Where are they becoming more prevalent, where are they falling out of use, and what can all this tell us about how we will live with climates of the future?

Published in Spine Mar 2015
Authors: Darlow B. et al
STUDY DESIGN Qualitative interview study Objective. Explore attitudes, beliefs, and perceptions related to low back pain (LBP), and analyze how these might influence the perceived threat associated with back pain.
SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Psychological factors which contribute to the perceived threat associated with LBP play an important role in back pain development and the progression to persistent pain and disability. Improved understanding of underlying beliefs may assist clinicians to investigate and assess these factors.
METHODS Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with 12 participants with acute LBP (<6 weeks' duration) and 11 participants with chronic LBP (>3 months' duration). Data were analyzed thematically using the framework of Interpretive Description.
RESULTS The back was viewed as being vulnerable to injury due to its design, the way in which it is used, and personal physical traits or previous injury. Consequently participants considered they needed to protect their back by resting, being careful with or avoiding dangerous activities, and strengthening muscles or controlling posture. Participants considered LBP to be special in its nature and impact, and they thought it difficult to understand without personal experience. The prognosis of LBP was considered uncertain by those with acute pain and poor by those with chronic pain. These beliefs combined to create a negative (mis)representation of the back.
CONCLUSIONS Negative assumptions about the back made by those with LBP may affect information processing during an episode of pain. This may result in attentional bias toward information indicating the spine is vulnerable, an injury is serious, or the outcome will be poor. Approaching consultations with this understanding may assist clinicians to have a positive influence on beliefs.


Quick Answer: Does alcohol affect gym gains?
How does alcohol effect muscle building? Research shows that an acute bout of moderate alcohol intake does not accelerate exercise induced muscle damage and also doesn't affect muscle strength.
Why is alcohol bad for building muscle?
Alcohol contributes to protein breakdown more than your nutrition does to protein synthesis. When the body degrades muscle protein, it breaks down more muscle than it builds. In other words, never building muscle. Many try combining protein sources with alcohol to outweigh the negative effects.
Does alcohol kill gym gains?
Not only does alcohol have zero nutritional value, some studies say it may even disrupt muscle protein synthesis, and muscle growth. (Google it if you have a day or two to kill.) … This can hinder protein synthesis.
Is drinking alcohol bad for gym?
Alcohol is detrimental to sports performance because of how it affects the body physically during exercise and its adverse effects on the brain's functions – including judgment – that will impair sports performance.
Can bodybuilders drink alcohol?
The bad: Drinking in excess can lead to severe health problems such as liver damage, obesity, and cancer. When it comes to drinking while bodybuilding, if you end up binging, you could be sabotaging your sleep, nutrition, and good intentions to work out the next day.
IT IS INTERESTING: What is the best exercise for toning stomach?
Does alcohol hurt muscle growth?
Will one beer ruin my gains?
There are no studies specifically investigating the impact of a single beer post-workout. But those who love a good post-gym drink will be happy to know evidence suggests drinking about two of your favorite brews won't undo your hard work at the gym.
Does drinking beer ruin your workout?
If your goal is increasing performance and strength, it's best to limit your alcohol intake after working out, even if you don't eliminate it entirely. Alcohol can slow your protein synthesis, the process in your body that aids muscle growth, and can increase dehydration.
Does alcohol stop muscle repair?
Does alcohol affect your game? Barnes' research on male and female athletes has found that alcohol can also increase the loss of force associated with exercise-induced muscle damage. This can affect the rate of recovery.
Can I workout drunk?
Alcohol is a depressant, meaning it slows you down. Your reaction time, strength, endurance, and aerobic capacity will all likely suffer, so your workout won't just be potentially dangerous — it's bound to be less than optimal. The full effects of alcohol aren't immediate.
Does drinking alcohol reduce stamina?
Alcohol depletes your body's zinc resources, which can result in a reduction in endurance.
Can you drink alcohol and be fit?
Moderate beer consumption is actually healthy, so I set out to define "moderate" as well as educate on the basics of caloric intake and caloric expenditure. The radioman was not suffering from a beer belly but an INACTIVITY BELLY! Yes, you can still drink beer and be very fit.
IT IS INTERESTING: How many pull ups does a Navy SEAL have to do?
Does alcohol reduce stamina?
Alcohol slows reaction time and impairs precision, equilibrium, hand-eye coordination, accuracy, balance, judgment, information processing, focus, stamina, strength, power and speed for up to 72 hours (three days). slows recovery. Alcohol can interfere with recovery by delaying muscle repair.
Is 3 beers a day too much?
Can one night of drinking ruin my diet?
The truth is that, even if you eat super healthy most of the time, too much alcohol can hinder your weight loss and can even lead to weight gain.
Is beer good for muscle growth?
Alcohol and Testosterone
An increase in circulating testosterone, of about 17%, has been seen in both young men who drank a little (about 2 beers for a 150-pound person). However, such a small boost—more variation is seen from day to day or even within the same day—is unlikely to help boost your muscle growth.

A starving artist is a painter, poet, actor, musician, or other artist who lives in poverty. Life may be a financial struggle for the undiscovered artist who often cannot earn enough to make a living from art. A starving artist as the romantic, sometimes tragic figure portrayed in literature and theater is based on the bohemian counterculture that began in nineteenth century Paris. The French starving artists, or bohemians as they were known, were poorly housed and fed, yet were passionate about their artistic life as their raison d'etre, or reason for being.
The use of the term "bohemian" to describe a starving artist was inspired by Bohemian people from the part of the Czech Republic known as Bohemia, but it did not refer to all aspects of the actual Bohemian lifestyle. The French and other nationalities tended to view the actual Bohemians and Gypsies as con-artists and circus folk rather than actual artists. The French used the expression "bohemian" to describe a starving artist related only to the poverty-ridden yet free-spirited outlook of Bohemians and Gypsies.
The first bohemians were Parisian bourgeois; young people beginning to live on their own. They lived the impoverished life of a starving artist, yet most did have homes to return to whenever they chose. Soon, working class people who were actually poor also began living the starving artist life of the bohemian.
Housing for a typical 1850s bohemian was a small, sparsely furnished attic-style room on the top floor of an apartment building as these units were cheaper in Paris than housing on the lower floors. Many stairs, often hundreds, had to be climbed to reach the upper rooms. Sometimes several students shared a suite of rooms and focused on their art while also inspiring others. Food for the starving artist was often limited to small amounts of items such as potatoes, cheese, and herring. When a bohemian did have some money, it was common to treat other bohemians to a fine meal of lobster and wine.
Henry Murger's 1849 play, Scenes de la Vie de Boheme, was the first piece of art to make the general public more knowledgeable of the bohemian starving artist counterculture. Victor Hugo's masterpiece Les Miserables in which bohemian students were included as characters would appear later, in 1862. Murger's work presented three main starving artist types: the undiscovered artists who would often die in poverty as they thought discovery would come to them without their own pursuit of it, the paid bourgeoisie workers who lived the bohemian lifestyle for its romantic appeal, and the working artists without much money, but with a lot of ambition, who could survive well whether they became rich or stayed poor.
Jonathan Larson's 1996 rock musical Rent was inspired by Murger's play and the Puccini opera, La Boheme, based on Murger's play. Larson included modern artistic counterculture in Rent with subject matter about drugs, AIDS, and homosexual relationships. Rent is set in the East Village area of New York and is about the starving artist lives of idealist youth, some of whom are HIV positive, struggling to earn a living from their art. The young artists embody the Bohemian/bohemian philosophy of living each day one at a time and striving to make their short lives purposeful through the expression of their artistic passions.
I think it should be included that living the Bohemian life is the best way to live. Dedication to art should surpass the desire for wealth. It is more important to live a happy life than one in which people cannot be happy due to the circumstances that they find themselves.

This is really important because if you are bribing and bargaining with your students - you are in deep doodoo. It often sneaks up on you and before you know it - you are selling your soul for a little piece of mind in the classroom.
Not any more because I have some Teaching Truth for you! I love teaching truths!
The true reward is the satisfaction of doing the right thing. It builds character.
Many teachers get confused about the difference between rewarding and bribing. Isn't it all the same thing anyway? Nope. Not even.
I can give you the bottom line in two words: compensation and persuading. It is that simple. Here is an example of how this works:
FiFi the poodle is running wildly out the front door and down the street. (Hey - sometimes it could be a student....)
- SCENARIO 1: You call to FiFi and say "Stop! Sit down Fifi!" Fifi obeys you and sits down. You go and give Fifi a doggie treat. You just rewarded Fifi for correct behavior (doing the right thing). Fifi has been compensated for doing what you asked.
- SCENARIO 2: You call to FiFi and say "Stop! Sit down FiFi!" But FiFi keeps running. You call your command again. No response from FiFi. You are worried about her safety so you rush to get a treat and anxiously say, "Look FiFi, come to me and you can have a treat!" FiFi stops running from you and turns around to come for the treat. You are bribing FiFi into doing what you want her too. You have just persuaded Fifi.
Rewards are used to REINFORCE appropriate behavior. A student is asked to complete a paper first thing each morning. The student complies and does as he was asked. He is rewarded for his appropriate action with a trip to the treasure chest on Friday.
Bribes are used to persuade students to do what you want them to. But here is the catch.
Say for example, this same student is asked to complete a paper first thing each morning. The student does not do the work and even worse, distracts other students from their work. The teacher is at his wits end with the lack of work being done. "Hey!" he says to this student, "If you finish your work every morning this week - we will have a movie on Friday." The student responds (with a sparkle in the eye) "Can I pick it?" "Sure" replies the teacher.
- The student was bribed into doing the appropriate behavior.
- The student DID NOT demonstrate any personal motivation to do what is expected.
- Respect and responsibility are completely missing from this situation. In fact, the student was ignoring the teacher's instructions outright.
Whereas bribing actually REINFORCES that the student does not need to do the right thing to get what they want. They can manipulate and hassle the teacher into rewarding them for doing the wrong thing!
SALLY'S TEACHING TRUTH - it never works to bribe and bargain with your class! It is setting yourself up for more chaos! Yikes!
The most effective method is logical consequences. It does not reward or bribe. It teaches and guides! (The Classroom Management Boot Camp dives into this big time.)
BIG OLE QUESTION:
In the comments below tell me - Where do you think the Light systems fit in (like the red light/green light and similar methods)? Are they rewards? Bribes? Logical consequences? Love to hear your opinion!!

A de novo heterozygous inactivating mutation of calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) gene typically causes neonatal hyperparathyroidism (NHPT) with moderate hypercalcemia and hyperparathyroid bone disease. We present a case of asymptomatic hypocalciuric hypercalcemia with a de novo heterozygous mutation in CASR, S591C, which is primarily reported to be responsible for NHPT. A 54-year-old female was referred for investigation of asymptomatic hypercalcemia that was initially found in the 1980s but without a history of bone disease during the perinatal period. She had moderate hypercalcemia (12.4 mg/dl) and relative hypocalciuria (fractional extraction of calcium 1.07%) but normal intact parathyroid hormone and serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Pedigree analysis revealed that she carried a de novo heterozygous mutation of S591C, which she transmitted to an affected child with moderate hypercalcemia but not to other children, who had normal serum calcium levels. A de novo heterozygous CASR mutation that is responsible for NHPT may also present in individuals with asymptomatic hypocalciuric hypercalcemia. Caution is required when predicting course and outcome in a pedigree with CASR mutation, as well as incidental hypercalcemia, because of its variable phenotypes.
The phenotype and severity of CASR mutations are thought to be dependent on genotypes.
We report an asymptomatic case of the de novo heterozygous S591C mutation in CASR, which has previously been reported as a responsible mutation of NHPT with bone diseases.
Variable phenotypes of CASR raise a cautionary note about predicting outcome by genotyping in a pedigree with CASR mutation.

Denver's historic fabric comes from the stories of the diverse persons and groups who comprise its vibrant history. Led by Denver's Landmark Preservation staff in partnership with the city's I Am Denver storytelling project, this first-of-its-kind initiative in Denver will uncover and share the deep history and historic places of Denver's Chicano and Latino communities. Through engaging public outreach and traditional historic research, this project will create a broad overview on the citywide settlement and development patterns of Latino and Chicano communities in Denver up to the 1990s.
The project will:
Funding for this project comes from: Community Planning and Development, the offices of councilmembers Jamie Torres and Amanda Sandoval, History Colorado's State Historical Fund, and the Peter Grant Preservation Services Fund for Colorado of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

Over the course of this project, members of Denver's Mexican American, Chicano, and Latino communities shared their oral histories, experiences, and perspectives with city staff and partners, which are reflected in the ¡Qué Viva la Raza! documentary and final project report(PDF, 46MB). More than 300 people shared compelling stories and worked to identify significant places across Denver that are part of this vibrant heritage.
View the interactive StoryMap
This study identified eight key themes rooted in Denver's Mexican American, Chicano, and Latino history. These themes are closely tied to the significant places that these communities hold dear.
- Religion and Spirituality: Religious facilities where the sense of place and community is strong.
- Education: Schools that offered a central space to learn and participate in after-school activities, sports, and meetings.
- Labor: Latinos/Mexicanos came to Denver during periods of significant economic growth. As these communities grew, they gained representation within unions and other organizations through strikes, boycotts, and self-organizing efforts.
- Commerce: Mexicanos/Latinos throughout Denver built prosperous and essential businesses for all members of the community.
- Politics: The fight for political representation and civic inclusion began before statehood. Within the city, many individuals and organizations helped their neighborhoods and shaped city politics.
- El Movimiento/The Chicano Movement: The Chicano Movement in Denver consisted of grassroots organizing by numerous activists, including the Crusade for Justice, established by Rodolfo "Corky" Gonzales and others.
- Arts: The renaissance of Chicano music, literature, art, poetry, dance, and theater, which started during the 1960s as an integral part of El Movimiento, remains a crucial component of culture in Denver today.
- Neighborhood Life: Denver's neighborhoods feature countless essential places for Latinos/Mexicanos, where people have fostered a strong sense of belonging, developed deep relationships, and feel connected and accepted.
A few examples of the buildings and sites identified through these key themes include La Raza Park, Morrison Road commercial district between Sheridan Blvd. and W. Alameda Ave., Su Teatro, and Escuela Tlatelolco Centro de Estudios.

When your application users use Directed Web Access (DWA) for a Pega Survey, you want them to see a warning message that is localized for their locale when they close the survey. In the example provided here, the English language pyCaption warning message that is displayed when users close the survey is localized for German.
Design the message to be localized
Create the language pack
Apply the language pack to your application
Verify the translation results
Following the example, you create a field value pyCaption warning msg for the message text that you want to localize in the Pega Survey.
- Create a field value to store the message you want to localize, for example, pyCaption warning msg.
Specify the values for the following fields:
Field Name: pyCaption
Field Value: warning_msg
Localized Label: Specify any warning message that you want to display, for example:
Are you sure you want to exit this page? If you leave the page now, the survey will be locked for 120 minutes.
Field Value pyCaption warning_msg with Localized Label
- Create a single-value text property that maps to the field value created in Step 1.
Single-value property pxTextInput for Field Value pyCaption
For example, here is a section that application users view.
Section label for the warning message
- Drag a layout of type free form 1 X 1.
- Insert a label in that cell.
- Configure the cell properties as follows:
Label For:.warning_msg
Inline Style: display:none; (This value hides the cell; it does not occupy space.)
Cell properties for warning message
Follow this example, adapting it to meet your needs:
var warn_msg ="";//Empty the warning message variable
/*Add a listener function to fetch the warning message from the html*/
if(window.attachEvent)//For Internet Explorer 8 and earlier
window addEventListener('onload', initPage);//For Internet Explorer 9 and later and Chrome and FireFox
/* The function below will fetch the localized value from the warning_msg label that you added to the section of the survey */
var labels = document.getElementsByTagName("label");
for(var i=0;i< labels.length;i++)
warn_msg = labels[i].innerText;
break;// break from the loop when the message is found
/* Add another event listener to the Submit button to clear the warning message so that it is not displayed if the user actually submits the form and does not close it without completing it. You want to show the warning only if the user has not completed the survey */
/*Attach the listener to the window so that it displays a warning message when it is being closed.
//Method to clear the message so that warning message is not displayed on Submit
//Method to show the localized warning message

Northern California style: Country charmer
Colorful beds soften a side yard in Sonoma
Lauren Bonar Swezey
Landscape designer Jaquie Tomke-Bosch and husband Al Bosch moved from the Bay Area to Sonoma seven years ago with a collection of 23 containerized Japanese maples and ambitious plans to renovate a long, narrow side yard. "The garden became a labor of love," Tomke-Bosch says.
First, they removed large portions of an existing lawn and oversize deck. Then they formed rounded planting beds to visually soften the space. Each maple became the focal point for one of the beds. Beneath the trees, Tomke-Bosch wove a tapestry of perennials and ornamental grasses, using plants with flowers or foliage in shades of yellow ― including alstroemeria, euphorbia, Japanese forest grass, and Jerusalem sage ― to direct the eye through the garden.
Steppingstones embedded in the lawn invite visitors to stroll through the garden to the rear of the property, where Bosch designed and built a garden cottage for potting and storage. "It's a fun country garden with something happening in it every month of the year," Tomke-Bosch says.
Around The Web


text: Oh the drama of a solid silhouette. Is there anything quite as commanding? They demand attention by drawing the eye to the subject, and often leave nothing else in the frame. Silhouettes define characters and situations, and are often used to emphasize the solitary nature of a single figure (a la Batman) or to amp up the drama of a group of people (a la Chicago's cellblock tango). Silhouettes help to elevate tension in an understated way by eliminating all the other details that would otherwise be vying for attention. It draws the focus to a pinpointed item or character and builds significance through isolation. They carry power through their simplicity– when you remove all the extra information, what is left is all the more commanding.

The Community Cooker was the winner of the inaugural World Design Impact Prize for socially responsible projects, awarded at the launch of Helsinki World Design Capital in February. Developed by Kenyan architect Jim Archer, who was looking for an answer to Nairobi's rubbish problem, the community cooker turns waste to energy. The unemployed, who can't afford kerosene or other fossil fuels, bring rubbish to be incinerated in exchange for time on the cooker, where they can boil water and prepare food on hobs or in one of two ovens large enough to roast a goat. The cooker might later be used for water distillation and electricity generation. Archer estimates that the burning of rubbish will save 2,400 mature trees a year being destroyed to make charcoal.
The prototype was built in Kibera, the largest slum in Africa, and it is hoped that the project will be rolled out soon to other areas and developing countries. The cooker needs to reach high temperatures in order to consume toxins rather than release them into the air. It can achieve this heat thanks to a local metalworker, who offered some chance advice. Firebox Francis, as he was known, suggested that the architects include a combustion system that drip-fed small amounts of used engine oil on to a hot plate. This boosted temperatures from 270 to 880°C, well above WHO guidelines.
The $10,000 device can be connected to an ablution block, enabling people to use hot water in bath stalls, and a restaurant annexe where food can be served. The 10 sq m cooker is large enough for ten people to work around it and there is a wall to separate the drying racks and shoot system, through which the device is fed (five people are employed for this purpose), ensuring that the conditions of food preparation are hygienic. It is the best kind of social project: "One man's trash," says Archer, "is another man's treasure."

A Traditional Way to Dry Chestnuts
Katy Runacres
Friday, 8th November 2013
Katy Runacres is researching traditional smallholding methods in Europe. This week she has been exploring drying chestnuts to preserve a valuable crop well into the winter.
Chestnut Production is another smallholding activity which is key to the Swiss region of Ticino and Italy is chestnut harvesting. The Ticino area of Switzerland is heavily influenced from Italy over the border and has more cultural and farming similarities to Italy rather than the rest of Switzerland.
The houses follow the Italian design but I also found it interesting how the smallholding history is so different to other parts of Switzerland. It is known that the poor farmers and smallholders often had to rely on eating vast amounts of produce featuring chestnuts (Castanea sativa) during the winter months as there was not an abundance of other foods.
I have taken some pictures of the chestnut drying shed to explain more. This was a simple design which had a ground fire that produced heat and smoke. This in turn dried chestnuts which were spread on a wooden grate above the fire.
This simple device was vital and would help families store the precious food stuff for longer. Often people would use the dried chestnuts to make bread using chestnut flour mixed with rye flour.
The need for chestnuts as a food supply was also emphasized by the importance placed on each family owning as many chestnut trees as possible. Nowadays, Ticino and Italian dwellers do not have to be as reliant on chestnuts as a commodity, but certain local dining specialities reflect its hard but important smallholding history.

Katy is a 24 year old smallholder, blogger and cook. She currently smallholds in Switzerland including keeping chickens, but will return to her native Suffolk, UK later in the year. Katy is a member of the Suffolk and Essex Poultry Club and has a diploma in Countryside Management.

This thesis examines the modeling, analysis, and control system design issues for scramjet powered hypersonic vehicles. A nonlinear three degrees of freedom longitudinal model which includes aero-propulsion-elasticity effects was used for all analysis. This model is based upon classical compressible flow and Euler-Bernouli structural concepts. Higher fidelity computational fluid dynamics and finite elementmethods are needed formore precise intermediate and final evaluations. The methods presented within this thesis were shown to be useful for guiding initial control relevant design. The model was used to examine the vehicles static and dynamic characteristics over the vehicles trimmable region. The vehicle has significant longitudinal …

Social identity and the formation of health insurance networks
Institute of Development Policy and Management
The journal of development studies. - London, 1964, currens
, p. _PHONE_
In a panel survey of an informal insurance network in Tanzania we find none of the tell-tale signs that insurance transfers follow reciprocal risk sharing arrangements among self-interested individuals: insurance remittances do not occur through informal loans; transfers are not regressive; and they do not fall when shocks are repeated over time. The evidence of unreciprocated transfers occurring between kin is suggestive of risk sharing based on altruism or social norms.


Historical Terms
Historical Terms
(Russian, istorizmy), words designating objects, things, or phenomena that do not exist today. The Russian words tiun (tax collector) and bortnichat' (to gather the honey of wild bees), for example, have now disappeared from the language, although they occur as historical terms in descriptions of ancient Rus'.
Historical terms may be hundreds of years old, for example, smerd (peasant in ancient Russia), boyar, and bratina (a globe-shaped vessel for beverages used at communal feasts), or they may be only a few decades old, for instance, nepman, likbez (campaign against illiteracy), and prodnalog (tax in kind). Unlike archaisms, historical terms do not have semantic equivalents in the modern language. Historical terms are usually employed for stylistic effect in literary works on historical themes, for example, "the princes in shishaki (spiked helmets) rode about, while the kmety (peasant warriors) shod in bast sandals repulsed the foes in fierce fighting" (N. Aseev).
