...Abstract The emerging concept of inclusive business and green economy can be a boon to develop the marginalized indigenous communities in the developing country like Nepal. With the very thought of merging green economy and inclusive business having the taste of ecology, economy and spirituality, the core concept of "Peepal Plantation Campaign 2012" was initiated by Krishnamandir Promotion Children's committee (KPCC). As an initial step to bring Krishna Gandaki on value chain, 108 peepal saplings were planted on the bank of river at Puruswottamdham, Khoriyaghat, Syangja on the occasion of World Environment Day 2012. Moreover, the campaign not being limited only in the tree plantations tried to demonstrate the avenues for several other aspects of the opportunities of the village. Establishment of "Krishnamandir Promotion Committee" and "Krishnamandir Promotion Children's Committee" as an initiation of Bandobasta have the strong involvement of children, especially the marginalized Majhi, Bote, Kumal, Darai and other close tribal groups related with water culture, the program have well addressed the thought of complete inclusion that foster green economy. Bandobasta on Green economy concept since 1995 People concern started from Stockholm Conference about environment conservation ultimately lead to Green Economy at 2012. "Green Economy; Does it include you?" was the theme adopted for the World Environment Day 2012. This was the foundation concept of Hindu as mentioned on...

...Human rights are "commonly understood as inalienable fundamental rights to which a person is inherently entitled simply because she or he is a human being."[1] Human rights are thus conceived as universal (applicable everywhere) and egalitarian (the same for everyone). These rights may exist as natural rights or as legal rights, in local, regional, national, and international law. Peace education is the process of acquiring the values, the knowledge and developing the attitudes, skills, and behaviors to live in harmony with oneself, with others, and with the natural environment. i•de•ol•o•gy (ˌaɪ diˈɒl ə dʒi, ˌɪd i-) n., pl. -gies. 1. the body of doctrine or thought that guides an individual, social movement, institution, or group. 2. such a body forming a political or social program, along with the devices for putting it into operation. 3. theorizing of a visionary or impractical nature. 4. the study of the nature and origin of ideas. 5. a philosophical system that derives ideas exclusively from sensation Distance Formula The distance formula can be obtained by creating a triangle and using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.

...Making Geometry Fun with Origami Lucila Cardenas Vega University of Texas at Brownsville Introduction Teachers must have an understanding of students’ mathematical thinking in order to create meaningful learning opportunities. This becomes more relevant when teaching subjects that not all students have an interest for, such as, geometry. Since geometry is the study of shapes and configurations, it is important to understand how a student thinks about the different properties in geometry including, symmetry, congruence, lines and angles. Students remember a lesson better and the information becomes more significant when learning is accessed through hands on activities. (Pearl, 2008). Origami is the art of transforming a flat sheet of material into a finished sculpture through folding and sculpting techniques. The use of origami can be thought of as art; however, there are so many other benefits of incorporating origami in geometry lessons. According to experts, origami teaches students how to follow directions, encourages cooperation among students, improves motor skills and it helps develop multi-cultural awareness (Weirhem, 2005). Origami activities used in geometry lessons reinforces vocabulary words, facilitates the identification of shapes and simplifies congruency and symmetry (Pearl, 2008). In origami, students take a flat piece of paper and create a figure that is three dimensional. The use of origami in geometry is not new. Friedrich Froebel, the founder...

...Pythagorean Quadratic Treasure Hunters Pythagorean Quadratic Treasure Hunters Introduction to Algebra Treasure Hunters Ahmed and Vanessa both have possession of one half of a complete treasure map. Ahmed’s map shows the treasure is buried in the desert 2x + 6 paces from Castle Rock. Vanessa’s map shows the treasure buried at x paces to the north and 2x + 4 paces to the east. When the two combine information, the location of the buried treasure is going to be a lot easier to find and they can share in the booty loot that they discover. Castle Rock is the lowest left point of the hypotenuse and at the bottom of the left leg and the treasure is at the furthest right point of the right leg. To factor the equation we start with the following, X2+(2x + 4)2 = (2x+6)2 Using the Pythagorean Theorem, a2+2ab+b2 i get a compound X2 +(4x216x+16)=4x2+24x+36 equation. It is then necessary to simplify using the quadratic 5x2+16x+16=4x2+24x+36 equation ax2-bx+c=0 so that I can factor. (x2+2)(x-10)=0 everything is set to zero for the zero factor X = 10 solve for x Plugging the x value for a, b, and c to the legs or the hypotenuse and what this does is it gives me the equation of how many paces it is to the treasure A= 10 B=2(10)+4 = 20+4 = 24 C=2x+6 = 2(10)+6 = 26 In conclusion, castle rock is located at the bottom left of a right hand triangle, and the treasure is 26 paces northeast of Castle...

...Reginald Moore September 16, 2015 Art Appreciation The ‘Duho’ mask, which means hawk (or sometimes duha, meaning vulture) is a spiritual sculpture to encounter with spirits who materializes in animal form. In Bwa society, the identification and continued well-being of a family are often tied to a natural spirit. Upon consulting a priest, a family may commission a sculpture to embody that nature spirit. The masks appear at important funerals to honor the dead and escort their soul to the world beyond. The mask is the object of family pride and is an unofficial means of representing its prosperity and influence. This mask consists of many styles and paint mixtures. The wings of the primarily two-dimensional hawk mask are usually simply decorated with the paint. The face of the hawk has been reduced to basic geometric forms. A triangle defines the ‘face’ and contains a mouth and two sets of circles for eyes. The outwardly projecting beak and the hook at the top of the overall nature of this nature spirit representation. Bold geometric shapes repeated in brightly painted designs are often added to the surfaces of these relatively abstract forms. The hawk mask’s horizontal span extends about five feet wide; the wingspan of a related representation of the butterfly may be up to six or seven feet. The mask itself is a directional force because the length of the wings. It has gigantic circle going across the mask, which makes me look towards the beck and then the rest of the...

...next day. I guess you can say that this is where my love for math started. I am not saying that I never had to study or that I have never struggled with any math in my life, but for the most part, most of the math classes I have taken in my life have come pretty easily to me. I love when you are struggling with something in math and all of a sudden you have that a-ha moment where everything suddenly makes sense. In the past I have taken all the basics in math including Algebra and Geometry. However, these courses were also taken almost 20 years ago, and I have to admit that I am a bit rusty when it comes to all of the formulas and properties. Even though I may not remember all of the formulas, I still consider my previous courses a success. I may not remember the exact formula, but I do remember that the formulas exist and it is just a matter of looking the formula up and plugging in the right numbers to get the correct answer. For example, I remember how I used to love doing proofs in geometry, the longer the better. I probably could not jump right into one of those long proofs now, but I don’t think it would take me long to get back to being able to solve one. This is because math is always the same. It is not like English where the rules are always changing. Two plus two will always be four, and this is...

...History of Geometry Geometry was thoroughly organized in about 300 BC, when the Greek mathematician Euclid gathered what was known at the time, added original work of his own, and arranged 465 propositions into 13 books, called 'Elements'. The books covered not only plane and solid geometry but also much of what is now known as algebra, trigonometry, and advanced arithmetic. Through the ages, the propositions have been rearranged, and many of the proofs are different, but the basic idea presented in the 'Elements' has not changed. In the work facts are not just cataloged but are developed in a fashionable way. Even in 300 BC, geometry was recognized to be not just for mathematicians. Anyone can benefit from the basic learning of geometry, which is how to follow lines of reasoning, how to say precisely what is intended, and especially how to prove basic concepts by following these lines of reasoning. Taking a course in geometry is beneficial for all students, who will find that learning to reason and prove convincingly is necessary for every profession. It is true that not everyone must prove things, but everyone is exposed to proof. Politicians, advertisers, and many other people try to offer convincing arguments. Anyone who cannot tell a good proof from a bad one may easily be persuaded in the wrong direction. Geometry provides a simplified universe, where points and lines obey believable rules and where conclusions are easily verified. By first studying how to reason in...
