How terrorism has invaded German law - Professor Thomas Weigend
Professor Thomas Weigend (University of Cologne). The threat of terrorism hit Germany in two waves, the first in the 1970s and 1980s, the second in the general context of 11 Sept., 2001. Both waves have led to extensive legislation in substantive and procedural criminal law. The 1970s saw the introduction of the new criminal offence of being a member of a terrorist organisation as well as ad hoc legislation cutting back on the rights of the defence. More recently, the powers of the State to use
2.2 Pressure in the atmosphere The sounds we hear generally consist of rapid fluctuations of air pressure in the atmosphere that surrounds us. Sound can also be transmitted through other media, for instance water, so not all sound consists of fluctuations in air pressure. However, for the purposes of this discussion I shall confine myself to sound in air. These fluctuations in air pressure are caused by a local disturbance to the air pressure, which might be sudden and transient – for example, when a paper bag is b

Professor Peter Lambert inaugural lecture: The Priest, the Coup and the Party
In 2008 Fernando Lugo came to power in Paraguay promising a 'new dawn' based on social justice, democracy and greater empowerment of the country's poor but just four years later, with his reform programme in tatters.
In his inaugural lecture, Professor Peter Lambert examines the failure of Lugo's reform programme through analysis of both immediate causes and wider factors related to domestic power relations and political culture. This in turn raises questions about the very nature of Paraguay'
Parts of Flowering Plants
This video shows the parts of a flowering plant. This video discusses the four main parts of the plant, roots, stem, leaves, and the flower. In this discussion it includes what each part does. Great basic video. Video is good for elementary level students. Run time 03:46.

1.5.3 Mathematical graphs: What could they mean? The values of the x- and y-coordinates in a graph sometimes relate to measurements of physical quantities: for example, in graphs of height against distance, or temperature against time. Physical quantities always have units associated with them, and these must be shown on the axes’ labels of the graph. In mathematics, however, values of x- and y-coordinates that have been calculated using a formula may simply be numbers: they may not have units atta
Data Safety Monitoring Boards: Their Place and Role in Trials
Dr Roma Chilengi, Head of Clinical Trials at the Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI)/Wellcome Trust Research Programme in Kilifi, Kenya discusses clinical trial data safety monitoring boards (DSMBs). This introduction starts with a definition of a DSMB and discusses their roles and when they are required. DSMS constitutions, charters and considerations for under developed settings are also discussed.
1.2 Defining the scene Let us first consider what kind of ‘scene’ the home help was proposing that she and Reg should play out together. 21L.017 The Art of the Probable: Literature and Probability (MIT) 3.1 Frequency Frequency refers to how often or how frequently someone should exercise. To improve aerobic fitness, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends an exercise frequency of three days per week of vigorous exercise or five days of moderate exercise for healthy adults (Garber et al., 2011). The terms ‘vigorous’ and ‘moderate’ will be defined in the next section. A frequency of 3–5 days per week using a combination of moderate and vigorous exercise is also recommended 1.5 Key dissertation ingredients A number of ingredients are essential for a satisfactory dissertation: a thesis, i.e. one coherent overriding ‘story’ or argument situation in existing knowledge, i.e. a critical review of prior research which motivates and justifies the research question contribution of something new appropriate voice and argument, i.e. the provision of clear and explicit evidence, substantiation, and chain of in How to Act and Think Like a Leader Introduction to Astrophysics Learning outcomes After studying this course, you should be able to: demonstrate an awareness of the roles and responsibilities of the modern scientist demonstrate an insight as a scientist into the social and ethical aspects of scientific research understand the rationale and role of certain contemporary tools for science governance, especially public and stakeholder engagement/consultation recognise opportunities to contribute to discussion and debat 16.901 Computational Methods in Aerospace Engineering (MIT) Keep on learning   There are more than 800 courses on OpenLearn for you to c 4.9 Further particulars, application forms and dealing with paperwork One way of offering more information than can be put into an advertisement is to send further particulars to people who respond. These could explain, for example, current and future developments within the organisation. If your organisation already has a standard application form, you will almost certainly use that. Otherwise, you could ask applicants to write a letter of application, possibly accompanied by a CV. It is also useful to ask for details of referees at this stage, but bear in min
Activity 1: Defining the scene
"The Art of the Probable" addresses the history of scientific ideas, in particular the emergence and development of mathematical probability. But it is neither meant to be a history of the exact sciences per se nor an annex to, say, the Course 6 curriculum in probability and statistics. Rather, our objective is to focus on the formal, thematic, and rhetorical features that imaginative literature shares with texts in the history of probability. These shared issues include (but are not limited to)
To become a successful leader, you have to ditch the conventional “think before doing†logic and instead start acting like a leader in order to start thinking like a leader.
A short introduction to Astrophysics at Oxford University by Professor Roger Davies.
This course serves as an introduction to computational techniques arising in aerospace engineering. Applications are drawn from aerospace structures, aerodynamics, dynamics and control, and aerospace systems. Techniques include: numerical integration of systems of ordinary differential equations; finite-difference, finite-volume, and finite-element discretization of partial differential equations; numerical linear algebra; eigenvalue problems; and optimization with constraints.
