...First, we sprinkled the tobacco seeds evenly in two petri dishes, one is clear and the other is opaque. Then the dish was labelled with the student’s initials and stacked with the opaque dish on the bottom, and was placed on a tray under a lighted window. So the sunlight could come in contact with the seeds in the clear dish, and the dishes were checked daily until they germinated within 7 days. Once the seeds have germinated, the number of green and albino seedlings were recorded on a supplied data table. Then the lids of the two dishes were switched, the original opaque dish was stacked on top and placed under sunlight. After 24 - 48 hours, the seedlings in the opaque dish were counted and...

...Reproducible Skills Pages, Including: >>Body & Brain Science >>Reading Comprehension >>Graphs, Charts >>Critical Thinking >>Sequencing 14 Drug Education Activities FROM SCHOLASTIC AND THE SCIENTISTS OF THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE ON DRUG ABUSE, NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH, U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES STEPHEN KRONINGER(ILLUSTRATION) Dear Teacher, One of the most important things you can do as a teacher is to give your students information about the health effects of drug abuse. Together with the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), we’ve put together this 16-page book of reproducibles, full of facts and activities on drugs of abuse. This book is just one component of our ongoing drug education program, “Heads Up: Real News About Drugs and Your Body,” a partnership between NIDA and Scholastic Inc. These skills pages can be used alone or to support and extend the feature articles that appeared in your classroom magazine in the 2002- 2003 school year and are continuing this year. This book includes an introduction to the brain, that crucial organ so vulnerable to drugs of abuse. Then, we focus on the health effects of specific drugs, including marijuana, inhalants, nicotine, steroids, prescription drugs, club drugs, heroin, and cocaine. While you can use these reproducibles to support a drug education, health, or human-body science curriculum, the activities extend into other areas. In order to complete the activities, students must read charts and graphs...

The term ceramic refers to any product made from a non-metallic inorganic material usually processed by firing at a high temperature to achieve desirable properties. This material is opaque, relatively weak and porous and would be unsuitable for dental applications. It consisted mainly of kaolin. The more restrictive term porcelain refers to a specific compositional range of ceramic materials originally made by mixing kaolin (hydrated aluminosilicate), quartz (silica), and feldspars (potassium and sodium aluminosilicates), and firing at high temperature. Dental ceramics for metal-ceramic restorations...

The begun of the cyborgs unplugged, they started to talk about the two main people that create the cyborgs project. The two people were very important to this project because not only they made the cyborgs; they made something that most people would not have made. The idea was to create a cyborg with animals and machines that will response in section they create it for. The cyborg they waned to create was a man-machine hybrid that would become an artifact-organism system in what is an implanted electronic device. The device was to have a bodily feedback singles that would automatically response to the wakefulness and metabolism and even the respiration, heart rate, but other as well that would be feedbacks signals. Also explain how the device work as in if its was a toilet seat that would be flush. The way the toilet seat that flush: It would have a to be flush in order to have the water flows into the ballcock and than the water would be riding on the rising tide, which would reaches to the preset level and than after that it would thus recloses the valve. This is like systems that are like homestatically being controlled. 1. Summarize the distinction from the traditional Klines & Clines definition of the cyborg vs. the one that Clark is proposing? 2.

...Otto Dix He was the great German Expressionist, was famous for his unique and grotesque style. Dix always balanced his inclination toward realism with an equal tendency toward the fantastic and the allegorical. Having experimented with Expressionism, Futurism and even Dada, Dix finally opted for a realist language that allowed him to present a critical view of the society that surrounded him and which led him to become one of the leading representatives of New Objectivity. His profound knowledge and admiration for the Old Masters, particularly the German Renaissance painters, led him to base his new style on a technique that revived their working methods. This included the use of panel rather than canvas as a support and a mixed technique of tempera and oil; his painstaking preparation of the support; his way of using the pigments and glazes, and even his signature in the form of a monogram in the manner of Lucas Cranach. These technical resources also provided him with a way to emphasize form over color and to convey the critical objectivity that he desired, accentuating the realism of his style and endowing it with the critical, ironic and mordant tone that is so typical of his work. Dix’s revival of old techniques and styles, combined with this “return to order” on the part of a realist artist in opposition to the language of the contemporary avant-garde movements, was accompanied in his by an interest in rediscovering signs of national identity, establishing...

...with, “Dylan and Lil Wayne? Thats an odd combination”. But it is not odd; not at all. First of all, they’re both superb lyricists, each with his own distinctive style. Secondly, both Lil Wayne and Bob Dylan are frequently charged with being opaque, non sequiturian, disingenuous, abstruse, silly, banal, indulgent and nonsensical. Both are accused of stealing lines, not just because people seek to tear down those at the top, but also because both are engaged in the folk tradition. Finally, they both have similar flows. Musically speaking, both Dylan and Lil Wayne use existing songs as scaffoldings on which to construct their own. Dylan draws from country, blues, bluegrass, folk, and early rock music, sometimes taking melody, harmony, rhythm and even many of the lyrics from an existing song and putting his own spin on it, inserting his own lines. According to ContactMusic.com, “Lil Wayne uses Karma Ann Swanepoel’s folk track once on his hit song I Feel Like Dying”. Wayne raps atop existing tracks from other artists and also samples from older pop and rock songs, especially on his mixtape. This is a clear extension of the folk tradition, modernized. Adding to being their own distinctive style, they both are charged with being opaque. According to...

...We love gadgets that serve dual purposes, so when we came across these solar windows from Hua Qin we were giddy with excitement. These window panes, which were unveiled at Taipei’s International Optoelectronics Week, do double duty to block out the elements and create energy for your home. They are slightly foggy and can seemingly replace home or commercial windows. The windows can come in slightly hazy to really hazy opacities – the more opaque the window, the more energy it produces. It’s unclear when these windows will hit the market, but they do bring up the idea of solar mapping, which we recently reported on. People can now map their buildings to see where the most sunlight hits, and install very opaque solar windows on those sections of the building in order to optimize the sun’s rays. This great green invention could open up the door to all kinds of renewable energy production for all kinds of environments. With solar panels, or even with solar paper — which we recently reported on — it is neccessary to put aside a surface for solar production that will serve no other purpose other than to produce power. With these solar windows one could generate electricity not on the roof of an electric car, but through the sun roof or the window pane. This solar glass would be perfect for greenhouses, capturing light from panes of glass that already magnify the sun. The opportunities with solar glass are endless, let’s hope Hua Qin sets to work manufacturing them soon. Read...

...Wilbert A. McClay Email1: mcclay.w@husky.neu.edu Email2: wilmcclay@gmail.com Homeland Security Radiographic Image Analysis Project Image Analysis of Radiographic Scans for Detection of Threats in Cargo Containers Motivation The current standard methods for examining containers that pose a potential terrorist threat involve Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officers generally conducting either non-intrusive or physical inspections. The non-intrusive inspection (NII) involves use of X-ray or gamma ray scanners to generate an image of the contents, which DHS officers review for anomalies. DHS officers also scan cargo using radiation detection devices. When an irregularity is identified, officers may physically examine all or a portion of the container’s contents (see Figure 1 below). [pic] Figure 1: Cargo container being examined by portable VACIS system. Problem Importance The methods implemented will enable the identification and evaluation of cargo radiographic images having an extremely widespread and powerful impact for Homeland Security. Project Description Radiographic imaging has become an important tool for screening cargo containers for potential nuclear or radiological threats. We are investigating methods to extract features from these images that effectively characterize the contents and when combined with other measurements and information could indicate whether or not a threat is present.

...has everything to do with personal needs, experiences and also satisfactions.” According to June, L.P. and Smith, S.L. (1987) identified that “Five characteristics of customers going to a restaurant have been found which is price, atmosphere, liquor license, service and quality. They summarized that different standard would be used when the respondents were choosing restaurants in different occasions.” Customers are sometimes attracted by the atmosphere of the restaurant, it was proved by the following newspaper journal that lots of customers go to a particular restaurant for special purpose. According to Sunday Morning, Bill Geist, (Dec 3, 2006) stated that “Los Angeles hot spot, Opaque, offers dining in total darkness. It's a hip spot on Sunset Strip in Los Angeles called Opaque, where patrons dine in total darkness. Menus are useless so diners order before going in.” According to Restaurant Demand Today, Promotion Marketing Association of America (1994) stated that “There are 10% fast-food restaurant customers choose the restaurant due to their friend/family favour.” There are some amounts of customers visiting a restaurant because of loyalty. According to Anna S. Mattila (2001), stated that “Loyalty has become the key strategic goal for many service organizations, including hospitality firms.” Ennew, C. T. and McKechnie, S. (1998)...
