The Five Senses: Touch
Humans are able to feel things touching them because of the nerve endings and different receptors embedded in their skin. Skin covers and protects the body, but it can also detect touch, pressure, heat, cold, and pain.
2.9 Percolation Movement of infiltrated water downwards through the zone of aeration (Figure 5) is known as percolation. The infiltrated water which does not remain held by capillary forces in the surface soils moves by the action of gravity through the unsaturated layers of soil or rock until it arrives at the water table. Here the percolated water joins the body of groundwater which seeps slowly to the sea. Benjamin Banneker: Historical Facts American Culture and leisure The UN's role in Overcoming Development Challenges 4.2.1 Comparing the management systems One approach to BS 8800 follows the ISO 14001 model, and the ISO 14001 system itself was closely modelled on the previous ISO 9000, with the 2000 revision of ISO 9000 following ISO 14001 principles. As a result, you may imagine that there are similarities between the standards. Many of the elements are similar, and some are nearly identical. Management systems share common elements, including developing and documenting procedures, training, record keeping, auditing, and corrective action.

Management of an emblematic species: the bluefin tuna (Vidéo) With Jean-Marc Fromentin, we discover the bluefin tuna. It is fished since Antiquity, but it is subjected to strong pressure for almost three decades, which is responsible for a large decline of the populations. He evidences the scientific, political and social aspects which enabled to better preserve this emblematic species.

Commentaires et Questions (audio) Commentaires : Thomas Sugrue — University of Pennsylvania 4.7 Summary Water in its 'natural' state supports a complex, yet fragile, ecosystem. The ability of natural watercourses to sustain aquatic life depends on a variety of physical, chemical and biological conditions. Biodegradable compounds, nutrients and dissolved oxygen must be available for the metabolic activities of the algae, fungi, bacteria and protozoa which are at the lowest level of the food chain. In addition, plant and animal growth cannot occur outside narrow ranges of temperature and pH. Susp Conclusion Hydropower was the earliest means of commercial electricity generation, and currently dominates alternative electricity supply. However, its global capacity for large-scale exploitation is less than six times that currently installed. Growth of hydropower is slow and its contribution to global electricity supply is falling. Both are due to economic factors, the slow pace of large-scale project construction, the remoteness of high-potential sites, and increasing resistance to the social "The Second World: Empires and Influence in the New Global Order" (video)

Special Lecture given by former Prime Minister of New Zealand and now Administrator of the United Nations Development Program the Rt Hon. Helen Clark. She is introduced by Director of the Global Economic Governance Program, Professor Ngaire Woods.
Rural schools, where the vast majority of children in China receive
their primary education, are often below the standards of their urban
counterparts. About 80% of rural schoolchildren don't get past middle
school, and many face difficult life prospects as they become teenage
farmers and migrant workers. But at AnWu Elementary, the explore team
saw the results of the school's vigorous improvements, and students
share their big hopes for the future with

The potential of Building Information Modeling (BIM) as booster of productivity in construction can be better explorer using
solutions of information visualization in digital environment, using tablets and smartphones. The maintenance of the project in
digital environment at the construction site has several advantages over the use of printed designs, enabling improvements in the
flow, quality and quantity of information in the enforcement phase. In BIM, this solution is further efficient, ex
Hibernation is an ingenious adaptation that some animals employ to survive difficult conditions in winter. This unit examines the differences between hibernation and torpor, and discusses the characteristic signs of hibernation behaviour. It explores the triggers that bring on hibernation, and whether internal signals or external season cues are predominant. It also examines the physiological adaptations that occur in hibernating animals. This unit builds on and develops ideas introduced in the

A talk by Parag Khanna, Director of the Global Governance Initiative of the American Strategy Program at the New America Foundation. In "The Second World: Empires and Influence in the New Global Order", Parag Khanna examines the intersection of geopolitics and globalization to argue that America's dominant moment has been suddenly replaced by a geopolitical marketplace wherein the European Union an
