By Sara L. Maurer
Do indigenous peoples have an unassailable correct to the land they've got labored and lived on, or are these rights conferred and guarded merely while a robust political authority exists? within the culture of John Locke and Thomas Hobbes, who vigorously debated the thorny notion of estate rights, Sara L. Maurer right here appears on the query because it utilized to British principles approximately Irish nationalism within the 19th century.
This e-book connects the Victorian novel's preoccupation with the landed property to nineteenth-century debates approximately estate, particularly because it performed out within the English profession of eire. Victorian writers have been drawn to the query of no matter if the Irish had rights to their land that can neither be bestowed nor taken away by means of England. In studying how those principles have been represented via a century of British and Irish fiction, journalism, and political conception, Maurer recovers the large impact of Irish tradition at the remainder of the British Isles.
By targeting the possession of land, The Dispossessed State demanding situations present scholarly traits to discuss Victorian estate completely as a commodity. Maurer brings jointly canonical British novelists―Maria Edgeworth, Anthony Trollope, George Moore, and George Meredith―with the writings of significant British political theorists―John Stuart Mill, Henry Sumner Maine, and William Gladstone―to illustrate Ireland's relevant function within the literary mind's eye of england within the 19th century.
The e-book addresses 3 key questions in Victorian studies―property, the kingdom, and nationwide identity―and will curiosity students of the interval in addition to these in Irish reports, postcolonial concept, and gender studies.

I left the cabin this morning at 5:30AM; it was 36 degrees as I headed down the mountain. I will miss my cabin life tremendously, but this is a relatively quick trip. The best part is I get to see the girls and Liam, along with a few river friends, and I am excited about that!
Our river home is lovely, as usual. I believe I prefer the mountains...I am particular to cooler weather...but the river is a different life all it's own. And I love the river too.
This is a photo of the Indian River, a brackish river (fresh and salt water), that is frequently wavy due to "on shore winds" I will call them. The ocean is about 7 miles to the East from where we are, so we don't get the ocean breeze, but it is a river, and we get lot's of "on shore breeze"! The rock is Coquina, which is basically rock made from shells (click on the link if you want to learn more). I took this photo from our dock. Is should not surprise you that we are
naturalists here too. We let the wild growth have it's way, nature's
As I approached the dock, a blue heron sat on a piling, but flew away before I could snap the picture. You will just have to imagine him sitting on a piling on the river until I can capture him...
There is a lot of wind this afternoon, but I thought you might like to see a video of the river in action...you may want to turn down (or off) the sound...
Thanks for reading my blog, you are the best f/f/r/s/f's, see you tomorrow,

Statement: Letter of Resignation from Members of the Editorial Board of Third World Quarterly
[This statement was originally published via social media on 19 September 2017.]
Letter of Resignation from Members of the Editorial Board of Third World Quarterly
Dear Shahid Qadir, Taylor & Francis, Colleagues and Interested Public,
We are deeply disappointed by the unacceptable process around the publication of Bruce Gilley's Viewpoint essay, "The case for colonialism," which was published in Third World Quarterly without any consultation with the Editorial Board. As International Editorial Board Members, we were told in an email on 15 September from Shahid Qadir that this piece was put through the required double-blind peer review process. We asked for these reviews to be sent to the Editorial Board, and they were not.
We have now been informed by our colleagues who reviewed the piece for a Special Issue that they rejected it as unfit to send to additional peer review, and they stated in an email to us:
"We would question the editorial process that has led to the publication of the piece. It was initially offered to guest editors Dr John Narayan and Dr Leon Sealey-Huggins as an article to consider for inclusion in the aforementioned special issue. The guest editors relayed their unease with the article and rejected considering the piece for peer review. It has subsequently come to light that the article was later reviewed as a standard article and rejected by at least one reviewer and then repackaged as an opinion piece."—email from Dr John Narayan (Birmingham City University)
Dr Leon Sealey-Huggins (Warwick University)
Dr Kehinde Andrews (Birmingham City University)
Dr Eugene Nulman (Birmingham City University)
Dr Goldie Osuri (University of Warwick)
Dr Lucia Pradella (King's College London)
Professor Vijay Prashad (Trinity College)
Dr Sahar Rad (SOAS, University of London)
Professor Satnam Virdee (University of Glasgow)
Dr Helen Yaffe (London School of Economics)
We have also been informed through correspondence between Prof Ilan Kapoor and our colleague who was the peer-reviewer, after the piece was rejected by the Special Issue editors, that her review also rejected the Viewpoint. Thus, the fact is established that this did not pass the peer-review when we have documentation that it was rejected by three peer reviewers.
As the Viewpoint did not pass the double-blind peer review as claimed by the editor in the statement he issued in the name of the journal, it must be retracted and a new statement issued.
The Viewpoint fails criterion #1 of the Committee on Publication Ethics COPE guidelines that state: "Journal editors should consider retracting a publication if: they have clear evidence that the findings are unreliable, either as a result of misconduct (e.g. data fabrication) or honest error (e.g. miscalculation or experimental error)."
These COPE guidelines are Taylor & Francis's reference documents for ethics of retracting a publication the editorial board was told in an email on 18 September by Shahid Qadir.
Thus, Bruce Gilley's Viewpoint essay, "The case for colonialism" must be retracted, as it fails to provide reliable findings, as demonstrated by its failure in the double-blind peer review process.
We all subscribe to the principle of freedom of speech and the value of provocation in order to generate critical debate. However, this cannot be done by means of a piece that fails to meet academic standards of rigour and balance by ignoring all manner of violence, exploitation and harm perpetrated in the name of colonialism (and imperialism) and that causes offence and hurt and thereby clearly violates that very principle of free speech.
The Editor of TWQ has issued a public statement without any consultation with the Editorial Board that is not truthful about the process of this peer-review, and thus, as we fully disagree with both the academic content of the Viewpoint and the response issued in the name of the journal, we are forced to resign immediately from the Editorial Board of Third World Quarterly.
As scholars, we remain ever-committed to the ideals that this journal has stood for over the past 40 years, and we would consider serving on an Editorial Board under different editorial arrangements.

Emmys 2014's 20 Best and Worst Moments
From a final 'Breaking Bad' victory lap to Seth Meyers' hosting duties, the highs and lows of television's big night

WORST: Stephen Colbert and 'Roscoe'
Claiming that "the President of Television" had personally asked him to present the Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Miniseries or Movie, Colbert said he accepted the honor despite the fact that, for nine years, a true talent had gone unrecognized by the Academy — his imaginary friend, Roscoe. What followed was a painful bit in which The Colbert Show host pretended to talk to someone standing beside him. Was this a riff on Eastwood's chair? Some sort of meta-comment on his blowhard persona? A dessert topping? A floor wax? Regardless, it did not go over well. Thankfully, Colbert would redeem himself later in the show.

The aim of this technique is for poor nations to weigh their development projects and figure out how considerable the project basis to improve economy growth and how urgent is it required all these ought to be in thoughts prior to carrying on any project, some projects may well be great but not crucial at the moment because of the monetary circumstance from the nation.
My suggestion is all poor nations need to concentrate on development crucial to market economy growth and cope with some other circumstances as a great deal as you can, as an example, a nation must increase its roads excellent or add ten new roads which will boost the economy and likewise requirements 15 government buildings for offices.
The roads project needs to be given priority than the buildings the government can rent homes or apartments for its offices to get a when then carry on the road project using a fix date to begin along with a fix date to end; good roads in poor countries will definitely reduce poverty and increases per capital earnings.
If a transportation auto was supposed to final for 6 years but as a result of poor roads it'll final for 2 or three years lowering per capital income for that loved ones but with very good roads the auto can final for 6 six years increasing per capital income for that family members and somehow advertising the economic growth.
Learn more info. check out here: Candidatos a Prefeitura de Contagem MG 2016
If it usually requires the driver 3 hours to transfer food from one particular location to yet another as an alternative to 1 hour due to negative roads and because of this the passengers are lightly to spend additional for their fare rising the food price tag indirectly but with fantastic roads it is going to take the driver one hour and he will probably be capable to produce additional journeys for less time along with the passengers will pay less minimizing food value and more mobility and driving enterprise sphere for the ultimate level.
Most establishing nations will not be wealthy adequate to conduct several projects
In creating planet, many of the countries are really piteous to handle several economic development difficulties at a time which can be one of the state of troubles of discovering the resolution to economic issues, most nations do not even possess a fixed task to resolve every year and a few nations have much more tasks on the table with limited resources and each of the tasks are caring on at the same time using the aim of solving challenges partly but in the finish, the majority of the tasks are dealt with partially and regarded it done and may bring it again on the table right after ten years or so and by that time the situation is a lot more complex than just before.
As an illustration, a country coping with two issues let say ailments and adding extra schools with limited resources and also the two troubles are dealt with partially this may be wasting sources as an alternative of solving issues but if 1 activity is solved at a time with important benefits it will be additional useful for the nation than doing partial function each right after ten years.
If ailments are dealt with partially for every single ten years it will yield no outcome but if it can be dealt with for once and for all it is going to yield a substantial outcome and will be pretty helpful to the economy, the labor force will be stronger than just before and somehow enhancing per capita earnings inside the nation.
If a nation is targeting to minimize aids spread in the nation and only a handful of persons are becoming educated around the challenge and for pretty a short time it'll not yield any outcome in actual fact, it will likely be wasting of sources but if folks are educated nationwide with availability of condoms, educating folks on Television, news papers, web and with 30 minutes school system or class system on aids for any extended time frame till significant final results are archived this technique will yield considerable outcome.
One of the top developments that had ever taken place in building planet was that of India, where the WHO team worked on eradicating polio in India with thriving outcome of only one particular kid died of polio that is difficult function and well planned strategy.
The very best strategy for establishing nations will be to focus on development that will elevate the economy growth, health tactic might be deemed a vital problem as soon as the people are healthful the labor force will be stronger and this can promote economy growth. It will likely be wealth significantly less to get a poor country to have two enormous soccer fields which can be costly in one particular city this isn't the top development in the moment such development can not increase the economy growth in anyway but slow down the economy.
So if African nations and a few other poor nations can resolve a single trouble at a time it will likely be useful to their nations and to their economy growth, multiple development projects are appropriate for wealthy nations. For poor nations to become capable to meet their development targets their framework should have yearly development project with every single target totally resolved.
Most developing nations have a great deal of work to complete on their developing problems but the principal problem is beginning using the correct creating projects plus the suitable creating projects need to be these that will enable economy growth and enhance per capital earnings but most nations in Africa are carying on building projects at randomly with projects which are not vital at the moment or projects that ironically slow down the economy growth.
How to identify the correct development project
How you can establish or pick the proper development project, if you will discover two difficulties at hand let say the nation must add additional schools or 10 schools and there is energy shortage within the nation unquestionably energy shortage is an urgent matter to become chosen due to the fact its contribute marvelously for the economy and when the concern might be resolve it can play a important function to the economy every single time there is dark out it brings down the economy by a certain percentage and decreases the per capital income.
The school problem might be temporally resolve but with a great deal of inconveniency for the moment till the concern is finally resolved, considering that you will find extra students than classrooms schools is usually scheduled to function on shift which is morning and afternoon shifts this can resolve the situation temporally.
Transparency a essential challenge to development Projects
To me the planet now is additional selfish than before nations and people care only what they could attain for their nations and persons care only what they will obtain for themselves and their family members is like everyone is blind to find out the right point!
Most poor nations have good development methods but due to no transparency in most of the projects carried on; most of the projects find yourself on completed or accomplished partially wasting state money, money gotten from poor people by means of taxes.
Among the top ways to boost transparency is to involve the communities to take portion in decision generating on each development project and a comply with up committee from the community and just after finishing each and every level it really should be reported to the community in order that they can assess the work and make commence. There ought to be frequent meetings on each stage of the perform, which implies the work has to be on stages.
If corruption or lack of integrity or dishonesty (especially susceptibility to bribery); use of a position of trust for dishonest gain could be vanished from current in most poor nations specially African nations it can wealth more than $200 billion aids presented to a nation. To prove my point one of the former presidents in the continent by name Mobutu Sese Seko former president of Zair, his whole wealth was much more than his country's debts.
Improving economy growth
– Great management of resources
– setting a task for each year to improve the economy
– transparency and improving per capita earnings
– transparency on projects
My suggestion is for all poor countries should focus on development which can promote economy development and cope with some other circumstances as considerably as you possibly can, poor nations really should manage and use their sources judiciously to boost their economic growth but this could only work on nations with transparency on all economic activities.

I am the "Momma" in this song.
The first time I heard it I felt like I had been kicked in the gut. It hurt…
Since then, due a lot to counseling and input from friends who's parents divorced, I have come to view this song not as an attempt to hurt anyone, but instead I can simply appreciate the song for what it is; beautiful like the person who wrote it.
Momma From "Not A Hipster"
"Baby girl, you'd better call your momma tonight
Baby girl, tell your momma that you're doing alright"
I don't know where to go from here, I
Haven't seen momma in a year
Why can't she see I don't wanna
Hear it, not tonight?
"Baby girl, your momma bought you something today."
"Baby girl, don't you have something that you wanna say?"
I don't know if I can thank you for
Trying to make up after losing that War
Momma, buying love won't fix us, not tonight
And I know you're trying so hard
All the gifts & all the birthday cards
Momma, you just need to give me time to think
To grow
To blink
And know
I think I'd better call my momma tonight….

USED with Permission
This is exactly right I have said this from the beginning. Sometimes PAS is accidental, but once known, when understood that these actions are harmful, continuing alienating behavior is definitely abuse. That is the place where I believe it's actionable and not in divorce court, but as a civil tort, and possibly even criminal
Reaching Through The Iron Curtain
Sometimes a parent isn't alienating the child/ren on purpose; sometimes they are just so full of pain over the break-up they can't bring themselves to be respectful… Talking about the other parent in a positive light is actually impossible when one is hurting so badly… and alienation can occur subconsciously.
However, once a parent understands that their behavior, comments, and preventing contact so that normal healthy parent/child relationships can continue to exist, is harming not just their ex, but also damaging the children, well then we move to a different level. We may be leaving kids in the care of a cruel and possibly dangerous person… One who doesn't care about the child's self esteem, or who places their own feelings above those others. This is the person who should face sanctions, possibly criminal charges for child abuse. That is EXACTLY what this behavior is; Child Abuse.

Summer is here and you can find meat on sale. The "other" white meat that is the most affordable is pork. I bought a family pack of pork ribs and used on side of ribs for Lentil Stew dinner and froze the other side of ribs until tonight. I love Sundays in the kitchen to make a gourmet dinner . The family pack of ribs were under $10.
Barbeque Pork Ribs Recipe
Marinate pork ribs with barbeque sauce and let it sit for at least 30 mins (longer the better). Then place in a 350 degree oven and cook for 1 hour. Turn halfway through.
Roasted Carrots Recipe
The recipe came from the Food Network.
Cut up carrots diagonally and toss with olive oil, pepper, salt, parsley and dill. Wait until the ribs are halfway cooked and then toss in the baking sheet of carrots to roast for about 20 minutes. You can take both out at the same time.
Kale, Pepper, Tomato Side Dish Recipe
This dish is actually from Oxygen Women's Fitness Slimming Soba Salad. I decided take the ingredients but not include the soba noodles for a nice side dish.
Cut up kale and saute on medium heat. Add cut up yellow/orange pepper, juice from 1/2 lemon and saute for 5 more minutes. Then add 1 chopped tomato and saute til tender. Season with salt and pepper. Kale and lemon are a winning combination.
Boil potatoes, mash with butter and sour cream or milk or cream cheese. Optional to add cheddar cheese.
Place barbeque pork ribs on top of the mashed potatoes. Put the roasted carrots and kale side dish beside the potatoes and pork for a colourful and healthy gourmet dinner on a budget.

A few months ago, I bought a box of Quaker Warm & Crunchy Granola (I think because it was on sale and I had a coupon). That's usually the only way I'll try something new - yes, I know, I'm kind of set in my ways :)
Anyways, I've had a few of these packages for breakfast and they are pretty tasty. But, I've been thinking of trying my hand at making some homemade granola, especially after I looked at the ingredient list on the side of the Quaker Warm & Crunchy Granola package. Guess how many items were listed? Would you believe 22? Yikes. That is one reason why I like to bake and cook so much. I can control the ingredients! I found several recipes for something called "overnight" granola, but more than a few used a ton of cinnamon (like at least one tablespoon). As much as I am a cinnamon "gal," even that sounded a bit extreme! I came up with my own recipe instead. Granola is pretty versatile. I put some into a bowl Sunday morning, added milk and sliced an entire banana on top. I wasn't hungry for lunch for a LONG time :) You can put some in with yogurt and make a "parfait." I am totally addicted to Greek yogurt right now, so that's what I used for mine Monday morning:
If you are headed out to work, school, the gym, running errands, etc., put some in a plastic container or a zippered sandwich bag - it's an awesome snack. Toss some almonds or raisins in (my sister's idea) - thanks sis! For an after dinner treat - how about a scoop of vanilla ice cream with some granola sprinkled on top?? What's cool about this "overnight" granola recipe is that you do the prep work the night before and it's ready to eat in the morning!!! It doesn't get much easier than that, does it?!?!?!?!?!
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ginger
2 1/2 cups quick oats
2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup walnuts, finely chopped
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. In small saucepan, melt butter slowly. When butter is completely melted, remove from heat and add honey, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger.

India's second largest city, Mumbai, previously known as Bombay, is home to a few hundred captivating contrasts and creeds. Mumbai is bursting with frenetic bazaars, shaded avenues thronged by commuters and roads brimming with traffic. The dynamic Maharashtrian metropolis is also a powerhouse of India's business and trade sectors. But regardless, Bombay's ethos lies in its biggest railway station - Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, in people-watching and eating bhelpuri by the iconic arch of the Gateway of India and in the exquisite Taj Mahal Palace, that holds a decade worth of stories about both Bombay and Mumbai. A few other places to visit in Mumbai city are Nariman Point - a legion of office blocks in the heart of the city and the Prince of Wales Museum for its eclectic architecture. Watching the sunset with a plate of vada pav at Marine Drive and experiencing the vibrant festival of Ganesh Chaturthi at Juhu Beach are few of the best things to do in Mumbai. One must also travel to Mumbai city to be dazzled by the country's biggest, and most prolific film and media industry, wherein if you're lucky, you might stumble upon a Bollywood star or two.

Effective conservation requires rigorous baselines of pristine conditions to assess the impacts of human activities and to evaluate the efficacy of management. Most coral reefs are moderately to severely degraded by local human activities such as fishing and pollution as well as global change, hence it is difficult to separate local from global effects. To this end, we surveyed coral reefs on uninhabited atolls in the northern Line Islands to provide a baseline of reef community structure, and on increasingly populated atolls to document changes associated with human activities. We found that top predators and reef-building organisms dominated unpopulated Kingman and Palmyra, while small planktivorous fishes and fleshy algae dominated the populated atolls of Tabuaeran and Kiritimati. Sharks and other top predators overwhelmed the fish assemblages on Kingman and Palmyra so that the biomass pyramid was inverted (top-heavy). In contrast, the biomass pyramid at Tabuaeran and Kiritimati exhibited the typical bottom-heavy pattern. Reefs without people exhibited less coral disease and greater coral recruitment relative to more inhabited reefs. Thus, protection from overfishing and pollution appears to increase the resilience of reef ecosystems to the effects of global warming.
Early historical accounts of coral reefs describe an abundance of sharks and other large fishes and luxuriant coral growth that seem incredible in the context of today's coral reefs and modern reef science
Ecological baselines of the structure and functioning of ecosystems in the absence of human impacts can provide fundamental insights for conservation and restoration
Recent surveys of the fishes of uninhabited, remote coral reefs in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands and the northern Line Islands
Palmyra and Kingman atolls in the northern Line Islands provide the opportunity to study reefs that have experienced minimal human impacts compared to most other reefs. Fishing pressure and oceanographic stress from upwelling or sea surface temperature anomalies are low in comparison with neighboring Tabuaeran and Kiritimati in the same biogeographic region (
Sites were located at semi-exposed fore reef habitats between 10 and 12 m in depth, and approximately one km apart from each other. Reef fishes were surveyed at all sites (n = 25 sites per atoll), and benthic communities at a subset of sites (n = 10–12 sites per atoll).

This study
NOAA data showed a total fish biomass of 1020 g m−2 and 49% coral cover at Kingman, and 520 g m−2 and 45% at Palmyra. Differences in estimates of biomass across the different data sets may be due to a difference in sampling effort, higher variability in habitat types in the NOAA data, and changes over time.
Biomass and abundance of reef fish varied greatly from Kingman to Kiritimati (

Note that human impacts increase from left to right in this and subsequent figures. CCA = crustose coralline algae.
Top predators accounted for 85% of total fish biomass at Kingman, and decreased to 19% at Kiritimati (
The structure of lower trophic level fish assemblages also changed across the gradient. Carnivores (principally predators upon invertebrates) had lower biomass at Kingman and Palmyra than at Tabuaeran and Kiritimati (F3,97 = 68.1, p<0.0001). Small planktivores only a few centimeters in length were the most numerous fish at all atolls, especially at Kiritimati, but planktivores accounted for only 6% of total fish biomass at Kingman compared to 26% at Kiritimati (
The changes in reef fish assemblage structure are best described as a response to increased fishing pressure from Kingman to Kiritimati (Supplemental Data). Fishing pressure tends to disproportionately reduce densities of longer-lived, larger-bodied individuals
Benthic community structure shifted from domination by reef-building stony corals and crustose coralline algae (CCA) at Kingman and Palmyra to domination by macroalgae (including species of
Coral density (numbers of colonies m−2) tracked coral cover and was highest at Kingman and lowest at Kiritimati (ANOVA, F3,304 = 3.1, p<0.03) (
Because recession in adult corals can often lead to fragmentation and the development of many small colonies that may have all been part of one larger colony, recruits are defined here as colonies less than 5 cm in diameter from coral taxa demonstrating essentially unidirectional growth (i.e., Acropora, Pocillopora and Fungiids), and thus represent individuals known to be young relative to larger individuals. Note that there were no colonies larger than 160 cm at Kiritimati.
We surveyed 24 species of mobile macroinvertebrates and 21 morphospecies of sessile (non reef-building) macroinvertebrates. In general, exposed and conspicuous macroinvertebrates were uncommon at all atolls with no obvious correlation with human abundance (
Numbers of small colonies (1–5 cm) of
We used principal component analysis (PCA) to explore the correlations among density estimates for dominant functional groups (four fish guilds and five benthic types) for all sites at which both benthic photoquadrat and fish census data were collected (
Atolls cluster in sequence along the first principal component axis (PC1), shifting from left to right from Kingman to Kiritimati. The major loadings on PC1 include biomass of top predatory fish, coral and CCA cover (to left, i.e., decreasing disturbance) and turf algal cover (to right, i.e., increasing disturbance). Note that herbivore biomass, the putative intermediate in models of simple trophic cascades, is orthogonal to the dominant axis correlated with apex predators.
The mechanisms leading to the marked association between high coral cover, low cover of turf, and abundant top predators across sites (as noted along PC1) are unclear. In contrast to other observational studies
Changes in species diversity were inconsistent across taxonomic groups: the number of coral species counted decreased from Kingman to Kiritimati whereas the number of fish species increased (
Both intermediate disturbance models
Kingman, Palmyra, Tabuaeran, and Kiritimati vary in human population size from uninhabited to moderately populated (
We did not measure nutrient flow from human settlements to the reef at Tabuaeran and Kiritimati, but a simple calculation suggests that anthropogenic runoff is of minor importance. Industrial agriculture and manufacturing are absent and the primary input is sewage (Supplemental
The gradient in human habitation and fishing in the northern Line Islands parallels that of several oceanographic factors, confounding interpretation of the observed patterns in the biota and human populations. Sea surface temperature (SST) generally increases with northern latitude in the region, although annual mean SST varies by just 0.8°C between the atolls (
Historical reports and biogeographical comparisons, however, suggest that differences in oceanography alone are insufficient to cause the observed differences in fish and benthic communities among the atolls. The earliest historical descriptions of Kiritimati and Tabuaeran document an enormous abundance of sharks and other large fishes (
Coral cover also decreased greatly at Kiritimati, Tabuaeran, and Palmyra between 1997 and our surveys in 2005
Combining data from our study with those from Jarvis, Howland and Baker (
It is interesting that the concentration of nutrients (DIN and SRP) around all four of the northern Line Islands surveyed are higher than the hypothesized thresholds for outbreaks of macroalgal blooms
We propose a model of reef degradation consistent with our data and analogous to Birkeland's concept of ratcheting down coral reefs, where multiple, interacting effects of anthropogenic and natural stressors lead to the demise of reef health
Fish biomass and the proportion of apex predators at Kingman atoll are greater than previously described from any coral reef ecosystem
Thus, local protection from overfishing and pollution may enhance ecosystem resilience to warm episodes and coral bleaching that result from global warming. To test this we need to determine how do coral recruitment, growth, and survivorship respond to changes in local community structure due to fishing, and how do these responses interact with episodes of warming measured by DHW. We also need to determine how fish productivity, i.e., the key currency of fisheries management, varies with changes in food web structure such as those observed between Kingman and Kiritimati. The only way to answer these questions is by investigation of reefs like the northern Line Islands that have remained remarkably intact in comparison to the global norm. They are among the only baselines that remain.
Surveys of macroflora and macrofauna were conducted using SCUBA-assisted coral reef assessment techniques in August-September, 2005. Approximately 20 km of coastline were surveyed per atoll in the semi-exposed leeward fore reef habitats between 10–12 m depths. We chose to compare the leeward side of the atolls for logistical reasons and because human activities are concentrated on the leeward side near human settlements and anchorages. However, windward and leeward are not as clearly defined around the smaller Palmyra and Kingman atolls so we sampled around the entirety of these atolls to maintain consistent areal coverage within the specified depth range.
Surveys were conducted by two teams of paired divers, with four divers (ED, AF, ES, SS) rotating between teams to distribute individual biases. Stations were spaced about a kilometer apart at random locations. At each station, one team of tandem-paired divers tallied all fishes as they were encountered within fixed-length (25-m) strip transects whose widths differed depending on direction of swim. Transect bearings were determined haphazardly along isobaths (between 10 and 12 m depth). Each diver was responsible for one-half of the areas surveyed, as follows: large-bodied vagile fishes ≥20 cm total length (TL) were tallied within an 8-m wide strip (two 4-m wide swaths separated by 1 m) surveyed on an initial "swim-out" as the transect line was laid. Small-bodied, less vagile and more site-attached fish <20 cm TL were tallied within a 4-m wide strip surveyed on the return swim back along the laid transect line. Fishes were recorded by species or lowest recognizable taxon. Tallies were binned by 5-cm TL class. Three transects, each separated by about 10-m distance from its neighbor, were surveyed at each station. Thus, at each station, the densities of large-bodied fishes were estimated within a 600 m2 (3×25×8 m) area, and the densities of small fishes within a 300 m2 (3×25×4 m) area. Additional species richness data were recorded to complement those recorded on transects. Species presence was tallied within 3,000 m2 (100-m long by 30-m wide) areas searched by 1-way zigzag swims centered on the transect lines.
Transects provided the input to estimates of species- and size-specific numerical densities. Various published
Numerical density and biomass of major fish trophic groups were compared among reefs by k-sample median tests
Corals were surveyed in four ways to characterize their abundance, diversity, size distribution, and health. (i) Coral density and size was measured in two 25×2 m transects (100 m2 total area) per site; the identity (at least to genus level) and size of all corals with colony center within 1m of the transect were measured. (ii) Percent cover was estimated using photoquadrats (see
Quantitative assessments of the benthos were made using the photoquadrat method
The structure of the benthic community was compared among reefs by PERMANOVA
Surveys describing the health status of corals were conducted on two, 2×20 m belt transects at 10 sites on each of the four atolls. Coral colonies were examined for gross morphological signs of stressors and placed into either a known disease, compromised or predation categories. The disease categories included, White syndrome, Skeletal Eroding Band, Brown Band, Black Band and other cyanobacteria (descriptions found in
Population density and species richness of mobile macroinvertebrates were determined within one 60×2 m belt transect at each of the 10 benthic stations on each atoll (except at the first station in Kiritimati, where a 1m wide transect was used). Mobile macroinvertebrates were defined as species that live unattached and grow to >5 cm, and comprised 24 species of echinoderms (asteroids, echinoids, holothurioids), mollusks (gastropods, bivalves, and cephalopods), and crustaceans (lobsters). Only visible (exposed or partially exposed) animals were counted. Species richness of sessile macroinvertebrates other than scleractinian corals was determined around the same belt transect used for mobile macroinvertebrates. Both species within the belt transect, as well as those encountered around the belt transect within a 30-minute total search time were recorded. Sessile macroinvertebrates were defined as species that live attached and grow to >5 cm, and comprised 21 species and forms of anthozoans (octocorals, zoanthids, actiniarians, and antipatharians), and sponges.
To explore the gradients in coral reef community structure (abundance of functional groups) among sites and atolls we performed a principal components analysis. Data were normalized, following arcsine square root transformation for benthic percent cover and natural logarithm transformation for fish biomass, and standardized.
Total species richness estimates were compared among atolls. For fishes and for corals, richness was estimated using presence/absence data from each station. Incidence-based coverage estimators were used to account for differing abundances across atolls, providing an extrapolated estimate of the total number of species present in the sampled area
Mean and standard deviation of sea surface temperature (SST) were calculated from monthly mean SST estimates for the 50km water pixel including each atoll using US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Coral Reef Watch data from 1985–2005.
The annual accumulation of degree heating weeks (DHW) is determined from these twice-weekly SST data. One DHW is equal to one week of SSTs that are one degree greater than the mean temperature of the warmest month in the climatology (i.e., the historical mean for July in most of the Line and Phoenix Islands). The total DHW accumulation for a given year is the accumulation of positive SST anomalies over a rolling 12 week time period; only anomalies in excess of 1°C were included, because smaller SST spikes are believed to be insufficient to cause stress on corals (i.e., consecutive weekly anomalies of 1.0, 1.5 and 0.8 results in a total DHW value of 2.5, because the third value is less than one). Notably, El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) anomalies are the common cause of maximum DHW episodes. Because ENSO events typically occur during the boreal winter (December–January) in the region, we calculated the annual maximum number of DHW for 12 mo periods from July in one year until June in the following year.
Bleaching Alert Level 2 is the highest level of coral bleaching warning issued by NOAA and is defined as a period with ≥8 maximum DHW. We computed the frequency of Level 2 bleaching events as the percentage of years from 1985–2005 with maximum DHW at or above this threshold. We present individually the years since 1990 that have reached this threshold.
The chlorophyll
At each atoll water samples were collected from 4 (5 at Palmyra) evenly distributed stations at approximately the same time in the morning on each occasion. At each station a total of 8 samples were taken using diver-adapted polycarbonate 2-liter Niskin bottles. Water was transferred back to the OR/V White Holly and processed within 1 hour of collection. The Niskin bottles were connected directly to a positive-pressure filtration system minimizing external contamination. All fixtures were made from polycarbonate or silicone. Acid washed tubing and filter cassettes were flushed with 200 ml of the sampled water before sample collection began. Samples were collected under positive pressure by applying 3 PSI of pressure to the Niskin bottles using a SCUBA tank.
Water was collected for inorganic nutrient analysis by filtering through 0.2 µm Nuclepore Track-Etch membrane filters (Whatman). Fifteen ml of filtrate was collected in HDPE scintillation vials with cone-shaped plastic lined lids (Fisher Scientific) after rinsing both the bottles and lids 3 times with filtrate, and then stored at −20°C. Analysis of inorganic nutrients (nitrate, nitrite; ammonium and ortho-phosphate) concentrations was carried out by the Marine Science Institute's Analytical Lab, University of California, Santa Barbara, California, USA using a QuikChem 8000 flow injection analyzer (Lachat Instruments, Wisconsin, USA). Data for nitrogen are presented as dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), i.e., the total of ammonium and Nox (i.e., nitrate+nitrite). Data for phosphorus are presented as total soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP). Means and standard errors of nutrient concentrations were computed across stations for each atoll.
Water was also collected for chlorophyll a analysis. Triplicate 500 mL samples were filtered onto 25 mm GF/F (Whatman) and immediately stored at −80°C. Within two months, filters were extracted in absolute methanol for 1 h

My mom loves getting the daily newspaper so whenever she stays with us I get a subscription. It's been nice getting the San Jose Mercury New and learning more about the local news.
I got a 50% off the regular rate of $4 per week from DiscountedNewspaper.com for 10 weeks which works out to $20 (sometimes I see flyers for $1 per week but I didn't have one at the time). And today I signed up for Easy Pay using the offer code "EP 567" so that I can get a $15 Safeway Gift Card. So in the end I paid $5 for 10 weeks which is not bad. Holman, the customer service representative, said that I would continue to be billed after the initial 10 weeks at the $2 per week rate but I kind of don't believe him.

Professional Community for Car Dealers, Automotive Marketers and Sales Managers
Every one dreams of owning a big luxury car and what a shame it would be if it gets involved in an accident! It's not just having a damaged car but also think of those damages that happened to your belongings inside the car. Things must have broken and may not be fixed at all. Most car owners who have had these experiences go for this option: Sell the car. Some car owners end up selling the car at a lesser cost than it would actually fetch in the market just because it has met with an accident.
But now, things have changed a little bit. It has become easy to find an accident repair centre in a place. These car repairs try their best to get you the best services like spot repair, accident repair, replacements of the spare parts, painting, etc.
Choosing the right accident repair centre is very important. First of all you love your car and you cannot afford to have any more damages. So it is best to give your car in the safe hands. Choosing a reputed, good accident repair centre is not too difficult today.
Many accident repair centers are not too difficult to find. To find one, what you can do is, search online and see the reviews the company has got from its customers. That will tell you a lot about the work they are capable of doing. You should also be able to get their contact number or mail id. Also check with your family and friends. It is always good not to wait till an accident happens and then run for help. Visit a trustworthy company and have a small talk.

Human resources specialists must recruit, screen, and interview job applicants. They often are tasked with other duties such as compensation and benefits, and employee training. To fill a job opening, human resources managers may choose to recruit on-campus at a local university, sponsor a job fair, or simply place job ads online. Each method has advantages in employment screening, and built-in drawbacks regarding issues such as wages and salaries, healthcare, pensions, and union practices.
Potentially, the best candidates may be hired through on-campus recruiting, the resources required may be prohibitive. Online ads would attract a larger applicant pool, but many applicants may lack proper qualifications. Hiring decisions must take into account a limited advertising budget, as well as the necessity of maintaining low employee turnover. With a bachelors degree, the average salary for human resources specialists was $58,350 annually, as of 2017. Beyond major requirements within the workforce development department, you may consider Nyack College scheduling as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

Surgeon General Calls Youth e-Cigarette Smoking 'A Major Public Health Concern'
December 8. The surgeon general on Thursday called the skyrocketing use of e-cigarettes among youth "a major public health concern," saying that while more research needs to be done on its potential harms, policymakers should take strong action to keep the products out of the hands of the nation's young people.

If you actually read what he says, the Surgeon General is supportive of harm reduction for heroin addicts but not for smokers. I guess some addicts are more important than others. and calling ecigs a "tobacco product" is scientific nonsense and ethically reprehensible.

Advances in sequencing technology provide the opportunity to explore viral diversity in a variety of ecological niches. Analysis of complex viral samples presents unique bioinformatic challenges, punctuated by the paucity of available viral genomes relative to their richness in the environment. VirusLand has been developed for the comprehensive examination of viral metagenomic data.
What is VirusLand?
VirusLand is a UNIX-based solution for the comprehensive examination of viral metagenomic data from assembly through analysis. It was developed with agility in mind; tools databases and modules can be customized and controlled by the user (even those without any programming savvy). VirusLand can be run locally... no big clusters or the cloud needed!
How do I get it?
We're in the process of releasing a new version July 2017. Stay posted. =)

He thinks he has hidden from his past,
and everything the world knows about him.
He's in the corner, hiding from the labyrinth
he has created for himself - he's searching
for an exit, but cannot find it.
Fate is not so far behind him, smelling his tracks
through time. It crawls slowly, like a Minotaur.
Behind him he has left trails of his life,
like an invisible film tape.
It's a matter of time before he's cornered....

15th International Flow Measurement Conference 2010, FLOMEKO 2010 | Year: 2010
Thermal mass flow meters are commonly of full scale accuracy and not considered for applications where custody transfer is required. Recent advancement of MEMS mass flow technology in city natural gas metering has demanded a better calibration and verification procedure so that the custody transfer can be justified with regard to the traditional thermal mass flow meter technology. The thermal mass flow sensor could be impacted by the humidity, gas composition and temperature. Calibrations with one standard may often be not applicable to the others if each of the factors is not fully accounted; even the meter itself has been well designed and immune to the variables. In this paper, we will discuss the calibration procedures and measurement uncertainties of the MEMS mass flow meters. The results indicated that with the MEMS meter designed for processing the variables, the MEMS thermal mass flow meters either with calorimetric and/or energy dispersion principle can be applied for custody transfer with a generally acceptable accuracy of ±1.5% or better.

The demands in homecare in North America and Europe have required cost effective disposable flow sensors for avoiding cross contamination and other damages. Examples are the infusion pumps and personal ventilators. For the infusion pump applications, a miniature liquid flow sensor is required to handle the micro flow during the injection of the medicine so that a constant injection can ensure the patient with ultimate comfort and prevention of side effects. This application also requires micro-fluidic design for the flow range of 0-500mL/hr. A MEMS flow sensor designed with the extended range capability could be the choice for this purpose. In this paper we present the design and prototype of such a sensor. The MEMS flow sensor chip with calorimetric principle is separated from the control electronics and encapsulated into a medical plastic package where a pre-manufactured micro-fluidic channel provide the path for the medicine with the sensor placed at the sidewall of the pre-manufactured flow channel. The MEMS sensors that have excellent exchangeability make it possible for disposability of the entire plastic unit. Copyright © FLOMEKO 2010.

15th International Flow Measurement Conference 2010, FLOMEKO 2010 | Year: 2010
City gas metering has been dominated by diaphragm meters for over a century. In the past 30 years, development of all-electronic meters for better energy management has been pursued by many companies using ultrasonic, thermal time-of-flight, and MEMS calorimetric principles. Installations and trials have been reported but mostly in small quantity. The challenges for such meters come from reliability and cost requirements. While ultrasonic technology has been better developed, the cost and gas composition dependency are often the barrier for the market acceptance. In this paper, we discuss cost effective and battery powered MEMS mass flow meters for city gas applications with the battery life over 5 to 10 years depending on operation conditions. The meters consist of a specially designed MEMS mass flow sensing chip with multiple sensors that offers the capability of large turn-down ratio over 200:1. The package technology enables applications with pipe diameters ranging from 15 to 150mm, and with an accuracy of ±1.5% or better. The long term reliability including resistance to particle impact and oil/moisture contaminations is ensured by chip design. The meters are ready for various remote communication protocols and the actual installations will also be discussed. Copyright © FLOMEKO 2010.

Cost effective flow meters are dominated by rotameters or variable area flow technology. These meters only measure instant volumetric flow rate with a low accuracy. In addition, the meters are not capable for temperature and pressure compensation as well as remote communication. With increasing demands on data communication and remote control in current industrial processes or gas measurement applications, development of new technologies would be necessary. We present a series of MEMS mass flow meters that are cost compatible with the variable area flow meters while providing all digital data process including accumulated flow rate measurements, user programmable flow alarm and flow data storage. These in-line meters provide packages in pipe diameter from 4 mm up to 100mm. It is powered with battery and can be used as a stand-alone potable option. The meter is also equipped with the industrial standard RS485 Modbus communication interface for easy networking and remote management. Copyright © FLOMEKO 2010.

16th International Flow Measurement Conference 2013, FLOMEKO 2013 | Year: 2013
Measurement of gas with high humidity or gas converted from liquid phase is frequently encountered. Accurate metering is always a challenging process as the remaining liquid vapors may significantly affect the performance of the measuring unit. In this paper, we presented a novel design of a mass flow meter which is utilizing a single MEMS calorimetric mass flow sensor chip integrated with a substrate micro-heating circuitry. The results indicated that the design can effectively work for the gas flow measurement under the presence of high humidity or liquid vapors with no requirement of additional external heating assistance to avoid condensation that alternates the measurement results. The present meter calibration, tests and applications will be also discussed. Copyright© (2013) by the International Measurement Federation (IMEKO).

Variable area flow meters or rotameters have been widely used for flow monitoring of industrial process, particularly where the cost is the first priority. However, with the constant demands for process digitization, remote data transmission, data log, flow level register and alarm triggered automation have been highly demanded. These characters are not available for the rotameters while the low cost barrier prevents other existing technology to provide the same solution. MEMS mass flow technology on the other hands, is ready to emerge for these applications. In this paper we present the working principle, design and performance of a series of MEMS flow meters that can be used to replace the rotameters. The all new digital flow meters meet all current digitization requirements while excel in performance at a very competitive cost.

Peristaltic pumping is a common process in chemical, biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. However, the actual measured flow is frequently found to be erroneous with an accuracy no better than 10%. In this paper we present a design of the precise fluid metering sensing technology using MEMS thermal time-of-flight principle in a close loop with the peristaltic pumping for the bio-fluidic analyser. The data indicate that the MEMS fluidic meter could significantly improve the accuracy and control of the fluid delivery within 5% which not only substantially reduces the cost but boosts the performance of the instrument by better controlling the sample to carrier liquid injections.

The MEMS mass flow meters for city gas utilize calorimetric principle. The flow sensor is packaged in a stainless plate forcing the fluid into a perfect boundary laminar flow across the sensor. The performance of the MEMS flow meter calibrated with either air or natural gas was evaluated by comparison in serial with either roots meter or turbine or diaphragm meters in the city natural gas pipeline. The data indicated that the MEMS flow meters had a much larger dynamic measurement range while exchangeable in the measurement range of either compensated roots or turbine meters with flow computers. However, the compact MEMS meters do not required the additional temperature and pressure compensation with flow computers, resulting in significant savings in cost and maintenance. Further, the all electronic MEMS mass flow meters are ready for remote data access and pave the way for future implementation of energy metering.
