Language schools » List of Languages » E
List of languages
|Is an extinct East Semitic language which was spoken in the 3rd millennium BC in the ancient city Ebla, in modern Syria. It is considered to be the oldest written Semitic language. The language, closely related to Akkadian, is known from about 17,000 tablets written with cuneiform script which were found between 1974–1976 in the ruins of the Ebla city. The tablets were first interpreted by Giovanni Pettinato.
|Is the extinct Hebrew Canaanite language of the Edomites in southwestern Jordan in the first millennium BC. It is known only from a very small corpus. In early times, it seems to have been probably written with a Canaanite alphabet; like Moabite, it retained feminine -t. However, in the 6th century BC, it adopted the Aramaic alphabet, and specifically Arabic elements such as whb "gave" (in names) and tgr "merchant" began showing up in texts. Biblically, since "Edom" is an alternate name of Esau, who was a descendant of Eber through Abraham, the Edomites are regarded as being a Hebrew people, as are the Moabites and Ammonites. For this reason, the four closely related south Canaanite languages are sometimes termed "Hebrew languages".
|Written records of the ancient Egyptian language have been dated from about 3200 BC. Egyptian is part of the Afro-Asiatic group of languages and is related to Berber and Semitic (languages such as Arabic, Amharic and Hebrew). The language survived until the 5th century AD in the form of Demotic and until the Middle Ages in the form of Coptic. Thus it had a lifespan of over four millennia. Egyptian is one of the oldest recorded languages known.
|Egyptian Arabic
Is part of the Semitic branch of the Afro-Asiatic language family, descended mainly from a medieval dialect of Arabic. It originated in the Nile Delta region (Lower Egypt) around its urban centers, Cairo and Alexandria. Today, it is the national language of Egypt and the mother tongue of more than 78 million people. It also serves as a second language in many countries across the Middle East
While Egyptian Arabic is mainly spoken, it is written occasionally in novels, plays, poems (vernacular literature) as well as in comics, advertising, some newspapers, and transcriptions of popular songs. In most other written media and in TV news reporting, Standard Arabic is used. Like other varieties of Arabic, the Egyptian dialect is written in the Arabic alphabet.
|Is a Bantu language spoken in Mozambique by about 64,200 people, the Akoti. Ekoti is spoken on Koti Island and is also the major language of Angoche, the capital of the district with the same name in the province of Nampula. In terms of genetic classification, Ekoti is generally considered to belong to the Makhuwa group (P.30 in Guthrie's classification). A large portion of its vocabulary however derives from a past variety of Swahili, today the lingua franca of much of East Africa's coast. This Swahili influence is usually attributed to traders from Kilwa or somewhere else on the Zanzibar Coast, who in the fifteenth century settled at Angoche.
|Is an extinct language, which was spoken by the ancient Elamites. Elamite was an official language of the Persian Empire from the sixth to fourth centuries BCE. The last written records in Elamite appear about the time of the conquest of the Persian Empire by Alexander the Great.
|Is a Samoyedic language spoken by the Enets people along the lower Yenisei River in Taymyria in northern Russia. There are two distinct dialects - Forest Enets and Tundra Enets - which may be considered separate languages. There are only about 70 speakers in total, with slightly more speaking Forest Enets. Most speakers are middle-aged or older, and all speak Russian as a second language. It is closely related to Nenets, which it was formerly regarded as a dialect of, and to Nganasan.
|Is a West Germanic language which is the dominant language in the United Kingdom, the United States, the Republic of Ireland, many Commonwealth nations including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and other former British colonies. It is also an important or official language in many countries formerly under British or American rule, such as India, Nigeria and the Philippines.
Is spoken by about 500,000 people in the northern and eastern and north-western parts of the Republic of Mordovia and adjacent regions of Nizhniy Novgorod, Chuvashia, Penza, Samara, Saratov, Orenburg, Ulyanovsk, Tatarstan and Bashkortostan in Russia. A diaspora can also be found in Armenia, Estonia, Kazakhstan and the other newly independent states of Central Asia. Erzya is currently written using the Cyrillic alphabet with no modifications to the variant used by the Russian language. In Mordovia, Erzya is co-official with the Moksha and Russian.
The language belongs to the Mordvinic branch of Finno-Volgaic languages a sub-branch of the Finno-Ugric languages. Erzya is closely related to Moksha, but is distinct in its phonetics, morphology and vocabulary.
|Is the most widely spoken constructed international language. The name derives from Doktoro Esperanto, the pseudonym under which L. L. Zamenhof first published the Unua Libro in 1887. Zamenhof's goal was to create an easy and flexible language as a universal second language to foster peace and international understanding.
|Is spoken by about 1.1 million people, of whom the great majority live in the Northern European country of Estonia. Estonian belongs to the Finnic branch of the Finno-Ugric languages. Estonian is thus related to Finnish, spoken on the other side of the Gulf of Finland, and is one of the few languages of Europe that is not Indo-European. Despite some minor overlaps in the vocabulary due to loaning, in terms of its origin, Estonian is not related to its nearest neighbours, Swedish, Latvian and Russian, which are all Indo-European languages.
|Was a language spoken and written in the ancient region of Etruria (current Tuscany) and in parts of what are now Lombardy, Veneto, and Emilia-Romagna (where the Etruscans were displaced by Gauls), in Italy. However, Latin superseded Etruscan completely, leaving only a few documents and a few loanwords in Latin (e.g., persona from Etruscan phersu), and some place-names, like Parma.
|Is the language spoken by Evens. It is an endangered language, having around 3,000 speakers.
|Is the largest of the northern group of the Manchu-Tungus languages, a group which also includes the Even and Negidal languages. It is spoken by Evenks in Russia, Mongolia and China. The basic vocabulary has much in common with the Mongolian and the Turkic languages, indicating a close relation. In certain areas the influences of the Yakut and the Buryat languages are strong. The influence of Russian is general and overwhelming (in 1979, 75.2 % of the Evenk were fluent in Russian). The Evenk language varies considerably and is divided into three large dialect groups: the northern, the southern and the eastern dialect. These are further divided into minor dialects. The written language was created in the late 1920s.
|Is a Kwa language spoken in Ghana and Togo by approximately three million people (Capo 1991). Ewe is part of a cluster of related languages commonly called Gbe, stretching from eastern Ghana to Western Nigeria. Other Gbe languages Fon and Aja. Like other Gbe languages, Ewe is a tonal language. Ewe is one of the better documented languages of Africa, partly due to the massive work of Diedrich Hermann Westermann, who published many dictionaries and grammars of Ewe and several other Gbe languages.
Is a Na-Dené language that was historically spoken in southcentral Alaska, near the mouth of the Copper River.
Today, the language has only one surviving elderly speaker, 88 year old Marie Smith of Cordova, Alaska, now resident in Anchorage, Alaska, and she is also the only surviving full blooded Eyak still living. Because of the dying off of its native speakers, Eyak has become a poster child for the fight against language extinction.
The closest relatives of Eyak are the Athabaskan languages. The Eyak-Athabaskan cluster, together with Tlingit, forms a basic division of the Na-Dené language phylum.

by Seth Rogovoy
(GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass., August 26, 2004) -- You don't have to wait until next weekend's Tanglewood Jazz Festival to get a dose of real jazz. On Saturday night at 9, saxophone legend Hamiet Bluiett, a founding member of the World Saxophone Quartet, makes his annual appearance at Club Helsinki ( 413-528-3394) in Great Barrington.
"I'm tired of everybody acting all serious all the time about music," Bluiett told the Eagle in an interview in 2000. "I mean, it's not a comedy show, but why not be joyful?" This from a musician with impeccable avant-garde credentials: a founder of BAG (Black Artists Group), the St. Louis equivalent of Chicago's experimental AACM (Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians), a bandmate of Lester and Joseph Bowie, Charles Mingus, Abdullah Ibrahim, Muhal Richard Abrams, Sam Rivers, Don Pullen, Babatunde Olatunji, and fellow saxophonists Julius Hemphill, Oliver Lake and David Murray in the groundbreaking World Saxophone Quartet.
"Too much music today makes you want to go out and shoot someone," said Bluiett. "Sure, sometimes I'm mad and it comes through, but the feelings in my music can run the gamut from joy to terror."
Bluiett has displayed that gamut of emotions in several concerts at Helsinki over the years, as he rescues the baritone saxophone from its reputation as the Rodney Dangerfield of the sax family. In Bluiett's hands, the baritone attains levels of eloquence never dreamed of for the unwieldy, walrus-like instrument. This is partly due to Bluiett's willingness to extend the instrument's range beyond what convention dictates (including squawks and squeals into the soprano range), but also a product of Bluiett's advanced musical intelligence and free-thinking approach to group improvisation and harmonies.
"Music is exhilarating," said Bluiett. "I have a love affair with it."
Hector on Stilts: Catchy pop
Who knows why they left Tucson, Ariz., for the Berkshires? Who knows why they decided to call themselves Hector on Stilts? What we do know is that the cousin duo of Jeb and Clayton Colwell, who do their band business as Hector on Stilts, write vaporous, ineffable, catchy pop songs that variously recall the Beatles, Steely Dan, U2, and the Police and a host of other easygoing, harmonious artists. Maybe it's their legacy – their fathers were the co-founders and songwriters for that golly-gee pop outfit, Up With People, in the 1970s, and the six-foot-eight-inch Jeb claims the late Anthony Quinn as his maternal grandfather. The group also claims the status of first storefront rock band to be part of the Storefront Artist Project in Pittsfield, and they have a terrific new four-song CD chock full of catchy new songs. Catch them on Saturday night at the Dream Away Lodge in Becket (413-623-8725), starting at 9. Brooklyn-based group The Minors will warm up the crowd.
Vance Gilbert: Funny folk
When it came time to try his hand at being a folksinger, Vance Gilbert discovered he had a leg up on the competition. What at first he may have lacked in the poetry department he more than made up for with laughs.
"I was playing a coffeehouse in college and had written maybe two tunes," Gilbert, who performs on Saturday night at 8 at the Guthrie Center (413-528-1955) in Great Barrington, told the Eagle in an interview last year. "Both were bad, and I played a couple of covers, enough material to get through twenty minutes of the set.
"But I needed thirty minutes of material. And I realized I was funny, and just went with that in the midst of these quintessentially abysmal tunes. But I was really funny, and it worked, and that was it -- I was hooked. And look at me now -- I've gone from absolute unknown up the ranks to relatively obscure."
Gilbert has come a lot further than that, and while he still is renowned for his riotous, improvisational wit, he has made great leaps in the poetry and songwriting department, too. He has five albums under his belt, including three on the Rounder/Philo label. His most recent album, "One Thru Fourteen" (Louisiana Red Hot Records), showcases his versatile balladry, touching down in folk, blues, rock, soul, country, jazz and pop.

Compare John's account of the wedding at Cana to the first marriage in the Garden of Eden. Note that Eve isn't named Eve until after the Fall. Prior to that, Scripture calls her simply, "Woman."
At the wedding at Cana, Christ calls Mary Woman. He isn't being a disrespectful son calling His dear mother merely woman; He is giving us a theological lesson and connecting her to Eve. Why? Because the name Eve in Hebrew is hawwa, which means "Mother of all the Living." At His crucifixion, Christ gave His Blessed Mother to John, and to all of Christ's Church. Mary becomes the mother of all of the living, and we are most truly alive when we are alive in Christ. Mary is our Mother if we are among those truly alive — among the sons and daughters of Holy Church.
Today, we celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes on its normal day of February 11th. We also celebrated it as a parish last Sunday, which we were able to do because it is our patronal feast day and because we had special permission from the Bishop. That means that this year, it is the feast so nice we got to celebrate twice. That is especially wonderful because it is a Marian feast, and as in all things Marian we are led closer to Our Lord and God through His Blessed Virgin Mother… who is also our Mother and who can be our guide as we move ever closer to her Son.
Never hesitate to run to Mary and to implore her intercessions. She will not hesitate to come to our aid as long as we live in Christ, for if we are alive in Christ then Mary the Mother of All the Living is our mother, too.

About Next Energy Solution, Inc.
Next Energy Solution was created with the belief that simple and affordable energy solutions should be obtainable for everyone. We are leaders in the industry and are dedicated to assisting clients find THEIR Next Energy Solution.
Expanding on this fundamental belief, we now include an innovative way to offer solar energy to everyone. This simple & affordable, ready-to-install or RTI solar energy system is YOUR Next Energy Solution.
Contact NES and learn about solar energy and how you can eliminate your electric bill with a 2-4 year payback installing an RTI or Ready-to-Install solar energy system.
How Solar Works
Solar panels are energized by the sun's photons, producing DC current which flows to the grid tied inverter, and then feeds 240 volt AC current into your existing breaker panel. The excess is fed into the grid, thus called net-metering and is used by your neighbor. If the consumption is greater than the panel's production, the grid makes up the difference automatically. At nighttime when the solar panels are not producing electricity, the inverter automatically switches off and the grid takes over. The NES Grid Tie System is a perfect way to reduce or even eliminate your electrical bill while maintaining the reliability of the grid.
The NES Grid Tie 'RTI' System Offers You More
- The most cost effective (typically half the cost) way to go solar
- Expandable. Grow your system to fit your budget and needs
- Quickest paybacks (2 - 4 year average)
- Engineered system for homes, businesses, farms, and cabins
- Strong, patented modular design offers roof & ground mounts with 1/3 fewer fasteners
- 50+ year life expectancy. Solar energy is the logical choice for helping the environment
In 1921, Albert Einstein won the Noble Prize in Physics for his discovery of the Law of "Photoelectric Effect," in other words, the invention of the solar cell. Almost 100 years later, we feel solar energy's time has come.
Our system's performance exceeds typical industry standards. NES is able to provide the latest technologies and advancements that often take years to become mainstream.
Our industry-changing ready-to-install systems offer a "simple and affordable" solution to go solar for less. NES helps everyone achieve their energy independence goals.

Types of Classes
There are two types of courses, the core curriculum and the other direct-enroll options offered from our partner institutions. Besides these, SiPN may also offer independent study options and a large number of internships for credit during the Summer months.
Core Curriculum Options
A student should ideally choose at least two courses from the core curriculum and it is highly recommended (although not obligatory) that he/she take one level of Portuguese Language for Foreigners. Placement tests for language classes occur during the add-drop period each semester.
The core curriculum is composed of 4 course options each semester (typically 6 ECTS credits each and at least 42 classroom contact hours). These will cover different fields of study in the social sciences and humanities, with themes that focus on Portugal, the larger Portuguese-speaking world, the European Union or Lisbon itself. These classes are hand-picked by our academic council to provide a clear identity to the program and also to guarantee a core group of faculty whom we have chosen to teach these courses. The core faculty are all PhD specialists in their fields and though they are typically recruited from among our local partner schools, they share significant teaching experience in the North-American system and so are familiar with the pedagogical norms to which our students are accustomed.
Direct Enroll Options in English
Through our partnerships with local universities, SiPN also provides a tremendous range of other direct-enroll courses taught in English, particularly in the areas of business and economics, but also in many other fields.
Direct-Enroll Options in Portuguese
If a student is proficient in Portuguese, he/she may take any class in any of the 4 schools, so long as any required prerequisites are satisfied and space is available in the course. Students wishing to examine all of the thousands of course options in Portuguese should consult the websites of our partners schools found here:
Catholic University of Portugal
Students seeking an internship experience for academic credit are encouraged to look at our options under "Build your Summer".
We offer internships for a large variety of different majors in English or Portuguese, in full-time or part-time formats, during the summer months.
See list of internship opportunities available here.
Independent Study Options
We are presently developing independent study options that could be pre-approved on your home campus for transfer credits.
Check out our interactive "Build your Semester" or "Build your Summer" and start to plan your study abroad experience!

What happens when a novice takes martial arts into her own hands?
Chaos! An elementary-age girl with brown skin and straight black hair finds a guide to Chinese martial arts and ignores its warning: "Do not attempt these forms without an experienced teacher!" As she assumes the first form, crane, the giant bird materializes in her room, batting the books from her bookshelf, dumping out her backpack, and tugging on her ponytail. Returning to her book, the girl moves through three subsequent forms, conjuring more animals to join the crane in wreaking havoc—a towering leopard, an even larger snake, and, finally, a humongous dragon that spans two double-page spreads. Can a small girl tame these oversized, rambunctious animals and set her house back to rights? Yes, with a deus ex machina: while those child readers familiar with Chinese martial arts will likely expect the appearance of a tiger, traditionally the fifth animal in this group, McClintock instead offers a fifth form that "returns everything to the way it was." Perhaps with an author's note, references, or additional resources, this might have worked, but as is, it's a bit puzzling. McClintock's art, bold brush strokes that mimic Chinese calligraphy, perfectly captures the vibrant energy of the story. But it also adds slight confusion when the girl, supposedly in the leopard stance, is shown with hands in tiger formation.
Not quite a knockout. (Picture book. 4-8)

One Man's Journey with a Criminal Record
Before his secret was out, Chris Clennon was good at hiding it in everyday conversation. He'd gone to prison at age 16 and spent 18 years behind bars in Minnesota—a fact he tucked away, hoping to leave the past behind and follow his dreams. He wanted to be a solution architect in the IT field.
But his blueprint for that future was stained by his criminal record.
After prison, getting a job in his field was "like swimming upstream, against the current," Chris says. And he understands why. Still, after more than a decade of proving he had changed for the better, he couldn't help wishing for a fair shot at a second chance.
Chris had taken every opportunity to study and gain skills in information technology while behind bars. He took his foundation in programming, database, and project management to the job market upon his release. With training, good work ethic, and the character to match, Chris worked his way up as a business analyst and project manager. Then a former client offered him a job as director of product development at a startup company. His career dreams were coming into focus.
"A company pursued me for a year and offered me more money than I had any right to expect," shares Chris. "They actually hired me, and I thought, I passed the background check! This is wonderful."
Chris discovered it was too wonderful to be true. The HR department had given him the nod before his background check had finished processing.
"I started the job on a Monday, and Wednesday they came to me and said, 'Sorry, we're going to have to send you home,'" Chris explains. There's no resentment in his tone, but a tinge of disappointment is unmistakable. After delivering the bad news, Chris' dream company let him pull together a list of references. He had many, but it wouldn't matter. The company required all employees to pass a background check since many of their top clients required it.
Face-to-face with rejection, Chris knew he had a choice to make: be bitter … or keep growing.
"I thought God was opening a door for a job in IT," says Chris. "That experience would break me of the shame attached with a criminal background, and of not being willing to have that conversation. As a result, I just started having the conversation, whether it was with former employers, friends, neighbors—including a neighbor that I was very nervous of what he would think if he ever found out."
That neighbor across the street was a former police officer—the last person Chris imagined opening up to. When he decided to be honest, Chris discovered that this neighbor already knew about his past!
"He looked me up when he was first buying the house," Chris laughs. "And he didn't care. He trusted me for who I am today. He trusted me to watch his home for the weekend."
Before, Chris had plenty of tricks for dodging the awkward questions. Now he says he's done talking in circles. "I don't necessarily always volunteer my background," he explains, "unless I find that it's relevant or meaningful to the person I'm talking with. Now I'm glad to say, 'Oh, yes, that person was a Prison Fellowship volunteer when I was in prison,' or whatever the case may be."
Chris adds, "That conversation not only puts a face to former offenders—it's not just someone on TV covering their face, or someone you need to be afraid of—but it also opens up the conversation for someone to say, 'Oh, my nephew did time,' or, 'My sister is in jail.' There are far more people than you'd expect that have a loved one who's been in prison."
Today Chris is self-employed as a licensed contractor. "It's kind of the cliché thing—get out of prison, go into the construction business," he says. He built a successful remodeling business, but he struggles with serious back issues that won't sustain physical labor for much longer.
"I'm currently at a crossroads," Chris admits.
Maybe he'll grow the business and hire other employees, or make another attempt at pursuing IT. He has also considered going into ministry or working for the Minnesota prison system. He already has six years' experience as a volunteer in prison, with the rare privilege of speaking at the same facilities where he once served time. Looking down the road ahead, he continues to pray for direction.
As one of 65 million American adults with a criminal record, Chris is encouraged to know he isn't alone. He highlights Prison Fellowship's annual Second Chance 5K in St. Paul as a powerful occasion for prisoners' families, formerly incarcerated men and women, and other community members to come together and show support for second chances.
"This 5K is a cause that's close to my heart," says Chris. "… and it's very public. This is going on the news, in a public forum, where we're saying, 'I stand by the person [with a criminal record].' … These are regular people. These are sons and daughters and brothers. And it's OK to not be ashamed of your past as long as you face it and are moving on with your life."
Every person has dignity and potential. But one in four American adults has a criminal record, which limits their access to education, jobs, housing, and other things they need to reach that potential.
At Prison Fellowship, we believe people with a past can still have a future. To find out how you can support second chances, visit our Justice Reform page. Together we can unlock brighter futures for 65 million Americans who have repaid their debt to society.

Peixes de Costão Rochoso : Reserva Biológica Marinha do Arvoredo (Brasil) e Arquipélago dos Açores (Portugal)
Andrade, Áthila Bertoncini
MetadataShow full item record
The success of a Marine Protected Area relies strongly on how well they meet their management goals. The Arvoredo Marine Biological Reserve (AMBR) lies in the southernmost limit of reef fishes occurrence in the Southwestern Atlantic. An updated checklist of shallow coastal fish species of the AMBR archipelago, with 15 new records is presented with comments on rare and threatened species. A total of 203 species belonging to 133 genera and 68 families and 17 orders was observed during the four-year monitoring the rocky reef fish in areas inside and outside the AMBR, through underwater visual censuses. The richest families were Carangidae, Serranidae, Labridae, Scaridae and Gobiidae. All comparisons significantly favoured communities inside the AMBR, except for diversity that was not significantly different. Haemulon aurolineatum was the most abundant species in all six sites, being Stegastes fuscus the most frequent. Invertebrate feeders dominated the areas, followed by omnivores in relative abundance. The analysis of how selected target species benefit from the protection effect did not show a clear pattern of significant increases in abundances along the sampled years. The same methodology was applied to investigate the community structure of shallow rocky reef fish fauna of the Azores Archipelago. A total of 52 fish species from 26 different families was observed. Trophic categories are given for observed species with comments on distribution and densities along sampled depth strata. Sparidae, Labridae and Carangidae were the most speciose families, being Diplodus sargus, Pagellus acarne and Coris julis, the most abundant species that consequently also accounted to the highest densities. Mean densities along sampled strata were tested for significant differences. Cleaning interactions among the rainbow wrasse Coris julis and the azorean blue wrasse Centrolabrus caeruleus are presented, as well as, comments on the exotic species Diplodus vulgaris, observed foraging among schools of small sized Labrids. In the case of AMBR, while surveillance of poaching, development and implementation of long-term educational programs, as well as, efforts to improve enforcement do not overcome the status of minimal, the AMBR will continue far from completing its fundamental objectives of protecting the rich ecosystem it shelters.

Every morning, before my family awakes, I go out to the studio to work with the wet clay, forming my bowls and cups. The intrinsic nature of clay touching the parts of my being that knows about rolling green hills, small summer lakes, old wooden tables, and hand gathered herbs brewing quietly for tea. Over this lovely earthen place, the magical dance of the alchemist is layered as the act of spinning a handful of clay into a round, inviting bowl feels like an amazing act of transformation each time.

Chronically ill, low-income women who thought they were dying, experienced a sharp reduction in domestic violence after getting access to a life-saving treatment, a Johns Hopkins University-led study found.
The results, featured in a National Bureau of Economic Research working paper and highlighted in the bureau's latest Bulletin on Aging and Health, demonstrate for the first time how improving women's health can reduce cases of abuse by roughly 10 percent.
"When these women who thought they were going to die realized this new treatment gave them many years to live, they faced stronger incentives to avoid abusive partners," said lead author Nicholas Papageorge, a Johns Hopkins economist.
Previous research has shown a connection between poor health and domestic abuse, where just in the United States, there are 4.5 million cases a year. But until now researchers say no one has looked at whether improving women's health could change their likelihood of suffering domestic violence.
To test this, Papageorge and his co-authors returned to a singular moment in health care history, the introduction in 1996 of HAART, or highly active antiretroviral therapy, which transformed HIV infection from a virtual death sentence into a manageable condition.
The Women's Interagency HIV Study, an ongoing study that began in 1994, offered the authors a chance to see how HIV positive and negative women behaved before and after the treatment was available. The women in the pool were mainly low-income, non-white and with lower than national averages for education and employment.
When HAART came on the market, instances of domestic violence dropped by roughly 10 percent for women with HIV who had symptoms of the disease, compared to control groups of healthier HIV-positive women, the researchers found. Drug use, including crack cocaine and heroin, also dropped, by 15 percent, in the same pool of women. The drops in both domestic violence and drug use were even greater when looking at just black women in the same groups.
"We think the reduction happened because the women experienced a change to their expected health and longevity. They also experienced better prospects on the labor market," Papageorge said. "We started seeing changes immediately after the introduction of the treatment. Though it is difficult to say with our data, there is some evidence that women not only left violent partners, but were also less likely to get into violent partnerships in the first place."
Papageorge said the findings suggest that giving women greater access to better health care can have far-reaching implications, even for abuse and addiction – two of the country's most frustratingly persistent social problems. Better health care also seems to change outcomes by offering hope for a better life to women in seemingly hopeless positions – those plagued by poverty, lack of education and under-employment.
"With other domestic violence interventions, women tend to go back. But here the change was medical and the women decided to make it on their own – they took this second chance and ran with it," he said. "This could be a longer-lasting change that keeps them away from these partners in the long run."
Co-authors on the study are Gwyn Pauley of the Schaeffer Center for Health Policy & Economics at the University of Southern California; Mardge Cohen of the Department of Medicine at Rush University and Stroger Hospital; Tracey Wilson of SUNY Downstate Medical Center's School of Public Health; Barton Hamilton of Washington University in St. Louis Olin Business School; and Robert Pollak of Washington University in St. Louis Arts and Sciences and the Olin Business School.

Madeira as a family – Lonely Planet's travel blog
The small Portuguese island of Madeira is overflowing with adventures that are sure to spark young imaginations. Lonely Planet Pathfinder Jurga of fullsuitcase.com recently took her family exploring in Madeira, and discovered stunning landscapes, tranquil beaches and a completely chilled pace of life.
Madeira has been on our travel radar for a while, but it was Lonely Planet's Travel with Children book that convinced us to finally book a trip to this fascinating island. With a mild climate, spectacular scenery and lots to see and do, Madeira is a perfect year-round destination for families travelling with children. Whether you are looking for time to relax, or a more active vacation, we found that Madeira offered the perfect mix of activities for all ages. Here are our top experiences of visiting Madeira as a family.
Take a levada walk
Levadas are irrigation channels found throughout Madeira, created in the 16th century to bring water from the mountains to the sunny and dry coastal areas. There are over 2500km of levadas and maintenance trails on the island, many of which are now used as hiking paths, leading you to some incredible areas that would otherwise be inaccessible. One of the most popular levada walks is the 25 Fountains Levada pictured here. Our kids loved the adventurous hike, spotting trout in the crystal clear waters and tucking into a picnic by the waterfalls.
Visit traditional villages
Madeira has many little villages that are fun to visit with kids, but there is one you really shouldn't miss. The colourful traditional houses of Santana are fun to see for young and old. Did you know that Madeira is also known as the 'flower island'? Spring and summer are therefore the best times to visit – there are so many flowers everywhere you go!
Take the kids to the beach
Madeira doesn't have many sandy beaches; there are just a few places where you can sunbathe or swim. You can, however, find several natural swimming pools – something that would definitely appeal to the whole family on a hot day! Since it wasn't really swimming weather when we visited, we chose to explore different kinds of beaches instead. We found some beautiful hidden gems, like this stunning tiny beach in Ribeira Da Janela, where the kids could play with stones and shells and we could watch the impressive waves hit the rocks.
Visit a local market
If you like visiting local markets when you travel, you're in for a treat in Madeira. The Mercado dos Lavradores is a fruit, vegetable, flower and fish market in Funchal, the capital city. It has a very unique selection of exotic fruit, flowers and fish we had never seen before. Visiting a market with children is always fun; our kids are quite picky with what they eat these days, but here they tasted all kinds of fruit they would have never tried at home. We tried nespra and banana passion fruit to name just a few!
Take the kids hiking above the clouds
Our kids loved the idea of a walk above the clouds, but we never expected to find some of the most spectacular mountain scenery we had ever seen… The hike from Pico do Arieiro to Pico Ruivo is a must if you ever visit Madeira! It's a long, challenging hike and we did just a small part of it with the kids, but we all agreed that it's the most incredible hike we've ever taken (and if you know us, you'll know that's saying something)! Even if you are visiting Madeira with young kids, you can walk at least the first section of this hike. It's worth a trip on its own, so don't miss it.
Go whale and dolphin spotting
Madeira is a perfect destination to take your kids to spot whales and dolphins. Whale sightings are a bit more seasonal, but dolphins seem to be around pretty much the whole year. It was a rainy and windy day with high waves when we set out on a speedboat whale-watching tour, so we didn't have much hope that we would get to see a lot. But then, all of a sudden, we were surrounded by hundreds of dolphins. Literally a sea of dolphins! The kids didn't know where to look first; they had the time of their lives. Seeing dolphins in the wild is our boys' favourite memory from Madeira for sure.

With no internet at home now, I'm a little behind on my picture posting, but am trying to get a little bit of catching up done today. These are from LAST Friday – ten days ago now. It had been raining all week, and still was that day, so Mason & I decided to go ahead & spend the morning making sugar cookies. Rolling anything out with flour is surely one of the messiest kitchen jobs there is – but also one of the funnest. We also made baskets out of paper plates to put the cookies in. Here is Mason decorating his paper plates before we got them all stapled together.
Mase and I got the cookies baked before lunch and naptime, so they were ready when June got there after school for us to ice and decorate. This was sort of a last minute plan, so luckily we still had some icing in the refrigerator that Mason had colored when he made a zombie caterpillar a while before. The cookies were sort of drab looking, which matched the weather perfectly.

Firefighters called in to free man's penis after it gets stuck in weight at the gym
Firefighters were called to a gym on Friday to help free a man who got his penis stuck in a gym weight.
The man reportedly got his body part wedged into the hole of a 5.5-pound dumbbell disc while working out in Worms, Germany.

Fortunately, with the help of a hydraulic saw and grinder, first responders were able to break the weight into pieces and free the man.
The Feuerwehr Worms Fire Department released a photo showing pieces of the broken dumbbell disc after the 3-hour ordeal.
And one message is clear in their Facebook post: "Bitte solche Aktionen nicht nachmachen!" -- which is German for "Please do not imitate such actions!"

How to Save 50% on the Trip from Montreal Airport to Downtown Montreal
If you're following me on , , , and/or Periscope, you know that I was recently in Montreal with . We were there for her big US immigration appointment and after a long and arduous process, she was finally approved. Here's the whole story.
Upon arriving in Montreal, I quickly learned that getting from Montréal's Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL) to downtown Montreal by cab takes about 20-25 minutes without traffic. Taxis charge a flat rate of $45 without tip. To get back to the airport, we took uberX and it was only $24 and a better experience. Presently, it's not legal for uberX drivers to pick up from YUL but savvy arriving passengers place the pick-up pin in the Uber app on the Marriott Airport Hotel and then call the driver and tell them which airport door they're in front of—and then jump in the front seat to save 50%.

Finding Your Best Friend
Many animals in need of adoption have had a difficult start in life. At the Veterinary Village, we work to connect these animals with those special people who can provide them with a loving, caring environment. If you would like to adopt a pet, we will help you find the best companion animal for you and for the way you live.
As we guide you through the adoption process, we provide a physical and social evaluation of your new pet and a description of the nutritional and training support you'll want for your new family member. In short, you will receive a comprehensive wellness report.
When you find that special companion, the Veterinary Village will be there to offer guidance and assistance – and to help make the transition smooth and rewarding.
We, at the Veterinary Village, thank you for your kindness in adopting these animals….We look forward to helping you and your new companion.

If your azaleas have little notches extending inwards from the leaf edges the notches are caused by the vine weevil, a small, flightless, long-nosed beetle which attacks many types of garden plant. A menace in both its larval and adult forms, it is especially common on evergreen azaleas, rhododendrons and camellias.
Image Credit: John A. Weidhass, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Bugwood.org
It is the adult insect which is troublesome on azaleas, especially when they are grown in a sheltered spot.
The pests hide among leaf litter on the soil during the day. crawling up the plants at night to nibble the leaf edges. The females lay their eggs on or below the soil surface and the larvae burrow into the roots or tubers of almost any soft, fleshy plants they encounter. Curiously, female vine weevils very often reproduce asexually – which is perhaps just as well for the insects' survival, since males are extremely rare.
Control of such an elusive pest is difficult. It is hardly practicable to treat the entire leaf litter beneath a bank of azaleas. Fortunately, damage is not usually severe. But if it is, spray or dust the soil and litter beneath the shrubs with HCH and rake it in. This should get rid of the weevils.

{The Black Keys New Album – El Camino!}
Today, the Black Keys releases their new album, El Camino! And even better…it was produced by Danger Mouse – collaborator extraordinaire! I first fell hard for this band when they were featured in the soundtrack to School of Rock (a movie and soundtrack which I LOVE!). And since then, they've been putting out rock music that hits all the right notes for me. We've been through this album a couple of times and I love it! Listen to their new single, Lonely Boy, below! And here's another album fave – Money Maker you can hear.
The Black Keys – Lonely Boy
{Red Jeans!}
I finally found, after searching far and wide, that pair of red jeans that fit me perfectly! We were doing some mad pre-trip shopping for D today in Frankfurt and I wandered into a Mango store for some me-shopping time…and there they were! I love these superslim jeans and can't wait to start wearing them in Cambo!….
{Moving Back to Cambodia!}
Oh right! And we're moving back to Cambodia! I can't believe it myself. After these 3 months of a stressful, but much needed break from it all, we decided to go back to where we essentially came from. Our hearts definitely lie in Cambodia still. We've only been away for about 15 months (and 8 months for D) but over the past couple of weeks, we realised it's where we would find the opportunities and life we wanted. Which is fitting, especially since we met and this huge adventure began from there for us. So in exactly a week – we'll be back home, as it were! I can't wait for the sights, the sounds, the smells, the tastes and the amazing friends we left there.

text: Business Recreation vehicles are used for an adventurous, outside experience in all sorts of weather. RVs generally have two kinds of roofing, a metallic roofing (which is expensive) or a rubber roofing. An RV with a rubber roof is much more vulnerable to put on and tear, than 1 with a steel roof. Therefore, there is a require for frequently checking the RV rubber roof, as it is more prone to the harsh elements of nature. RV proprietors ought to discover about RV rubber roof repair, as it might be tough for them to find a appropriate mechanic while on the go. One more classy technique of being dressed in these guys style add-ons is by draping it freely all around your neck. You might just take a long scarf and drape it all around your neck 1 time or two times and allow both the finishes to hang in the direction of the front side. This the prime aspect. There are numerous choices when it .es to selecting materials. The primary choices are asphalt shingles, architectural shingles, rubber toronto-roofer.. , plastic roofing, wood shingles, concrete tiles, slate and metal roofing. Asphalt shingles are the most cost-effective and affordable choice and they can cost $50 to $100 to cover a one hundred sq. ft roof. Slate and tile roofs can be much more expensive and the cost of putting in them can go up to $1000 for a 100 square ft roof. How to Restore a Tile Roof Stage two: To change a tile on a roof you should start by getting rid of the tile that is broken or damaged. To do this you should gently pry up the tile with a pry bar. If the tile will not raise you can use the hammer to split up the tile for easy removal from the roof. If you use the hammer choice make sure that you gently break the tile up so as not to disturb (and or break) the tiles that en.pass it. All as well often a easy tile roof repair turns into a big repair simply because the roof will get additional damaged during the repair procedure. Once you (or a roof repairs business) has fixed the region that showed damage, double verify the area by as soon as once more operating the hose more than the outdoors of the roof. If the roof has been fixed properly there should be no water droplets pe.rating through. If the area is no.heless toronto roofing leaking then you will need to repeat the procedure, or contact the business that carried out your leaking roof repairs. Occasionally the motorhome rooftop AC needs repairing and this article will help you in understanding which parts of your RV AC to change or service.These restore and upkeep suggestions are very simple to follow, even for those with much less than good hands-on encounter. If you live in most of Canada, a 25-yr shingle is the cheapest for each bundle, but will cost more following it is on our roof. Warranties and shingle construction ought to be understood before purchasing, you may be expecting some thing else. So be sure to ask the roofing supply shop, or your roofing contractor about the specifics of the warranty. It's not likely that the shingles you buy will be faulty, but it's good to know your choices. About the Author: 相关的主题文章:

MSC Colloquium J.-P. Bourgoin
|04 November 2004
|FWN-Building 5111.0080, Nijenborgh 4, 9747 AG, Groningen
|J.-P. Bourgoin
|Laboratoire d'Electronique Moléculaire, CEA Saclay, 91191 Gif/Yvette, France
|Engineering molecules-surfaces interactions for molecular electronics
|Thu Nov 4, 2004
|16.00 (Doors open and coffee available at 15.30)
|FWN-Building 5111.0080
During the last five years, Molecular Electronics has seen very significant advances and raised prospects of mid-term applications1,2. In this talk, the focus will be on self-assembly which is generally considered as the way of choice for the fabrication of future molecular electronics circuits. Self-assembling molecules into devices has been used during the last few years with the aim to engineer :
i) metal-molecule or more generally metal-nanoobjects interfaces to improve their transport properties and
ii) molecule-surface interactions to localize the self-assembly of the nanoobjects.
In this lecture, I will focus on recent results developed in the LEM along these two axis. I will first discuss the relationship between the molecular structure and the transport properties and show that the metal - molecule coupling plays a key role3. I will illustrate this based on combined Photoelectron Spectroscopy-STM experiments where similar conjugated molecules with different end-groups have been systematically compared.
In a second part, it will be shown how carbon nanotubes(NTs) can be self-assembled at predefined location of a substrate using for example a localized functionalization of the substrate by a self-assembled monolayer4. Various examples of the versatility of this generic technique will be presented including the fabrication of single electron transistors, of junctions, of field effect transistors (FET). For example, the FET devices prepared in that way are functional with state-of-the-art performances5. The role played by the environment (including that of the self-assembled monolayer directing the deposition of the NTs and that of molecules adsorbed on the NTs) on the devices characteristics will be discussed. It will be shown in particular how a chemical treatment of the devices can be used to improve drastically the performances of the carbon nanotube FET6. In addition, further elaborating upon the chemical tailoring of the CNTFET devices, a new class of devices consisting of optically gated CNTFET has been developed and will be presented.
As another example of application of this self-assembling technique, new nano electromechanical systems based on nanotubes will be presented and shown to function as switches.
Finally, the improvements of the self-assembling technique using the recognition properties of biomolecules will be presented.

BOLZER - Roman Acupuncture (IRON BONEHEAD - 12"LP 2015)
Bolzer is widely considered as one of the most impressive and worthy new bands and I definitely agree with this opinion. I love their two recently released EPs, it's also good to see them playing many gigs, including tour with such a popular band like Behemoth – what only confirms that Bolzer is something of a sensation. But I know that quite many people moan that Bolzer only did EPs, but not a full length album release. People have high expectations… Meanwhile another new Bolzer release came out and all moaners will moan again, as it's not a full length album yet, but a demo re-release! Well, personally I don't care, as long as quality music is released and damn, so far Bolzer never disappointed me (besides, their music fits such shorter releases perfectly!). And here's 2012's "Roman Acupuncture" demo, now released on the single sided 12" vinyl. I actually did not have an opportunity to hear it before, so the more I am glad that Iron Bonehead came out with an initiative to re-release this material. Also because the quality of the packaging is simply killer!
As I wrote already, I did not have the chance to hear "Roman Acupuncture" before I got this LP, but now I can say that it's another crushing Bolzer release. Damn, I am even more impressed knowing it was a debut recording of this band, but they already sounded like no other band before! Wow, this is something extraordinary and rare. You know, usually when new band appears we say "they sound like band X or Y"… For Bolzer, I simply cannot make such obvious comparisons. Sure, they have some similarities to other bands, but generally their style was unique and original from the very beginning. Awesome! I can't even call it simply black or death metal, as those Helvetians have both styles glued together, but in special way. Their sound is very epic, obscure, the riffs and style of arrangements simply hypnotize the listener and the vocals of KzR are more like some evil summonings, rather than singing. And all three anthems (yeah, three again… I don't know if it's a deliberate action, to have three songs on each release?!) are simply impressive as fuck, the music is so damn interesting and rich with many killer riffs, harmonies, the aura is simply dark and grand, also very ancient, if you know what I mean (it's almost like a musical / extreme metal illustration of the Great Rome!), so I always listen to Bolzer with my mouth open wide and jaw dropped to the floor. I don't care also if people moan that Bolzer gets very repetitive, as it's stupid opinion and I don't agree with it.
Finally, I also love the production, as it's harsh, but together with the music it all sounds very spatial, like the band was playing in a great chamber, so the sounds are echoing and hitting you with a great force. This is what I call a powerful and crushing death / black metal. So, I absolutely recommend this band to all maniacs, who had no opportunity to check them out yet. Believe me, "Roman Acupuncture", as well as "Aura" and "Soma", are real masterpieces.
Standout track: "Soul Eclipse"
Final rate: 89/100

|The revolutionary fighting ended with the surrender of Cornwallis's troops at Yorktown in October 1781. The formal treaty granting American independence was signed in Paris in 1783. Much work, however, remained to be done; if the former colonies had continued in their current status under the Articles of Confederation, the future history of the United States would certainly have been very different. The individual states saw themselves as sovereign entities, and the Confederation Congress had virtually no power whatsoever over the combined affairs of the states. Problems had existed during the war, though General Washington had persevered despite haphazard support from what was supposed to be a national government. Although in some ways less critical, the problems that existed following the war continued to point out the weaknesses of the existing arrangement. More needed to be done. Some sort of stable government structure had to be created, and the result was the Constitution. Even that monumental step, however, could not guarantee the long-term success of the enterprise. It had to be tested, and many differences existed about how the Constitution should be interpreted. The period between 1783 and 1800 was critical. I the time Thomas Jefferson and the Republicans were elected in 1800, the future course of American history was suggested. We examine that period in this section.
