Governor John Carlin Interview
Kansas Governor John Carlin held office from January 8, 1979 to January 12, 1987. He was elected to the Kansas legislature in 1970 and was Minority Leader of the House from 1975-1977; then Speaker of the House from 1977-1979, when Democrats unexpectedly won a majority. In 1978, Carlin upset incumbent Governor Robert Bennett's re-election bid by only 16,335 votes. The interview is the basis for Dr. Bob Beatty's article, "Be willing to take some risks to make things happen," published in Kansas Hi
Introduction Privacy has long been recognised as one of the important human rights and this is reflected in religion and history. There are, for example, references to privacy in the Qur'an, the Bible and Jewish law. Privacy was also protected in classical Greece and ancient China. The protection of privacy is seen as a way of drawing the line to indicate how far society can intrude into a person's affairs. Privacy encompasses an individual's liberty to choose how they lead their lives, freedom from
6.2.1 The need for a reference frame for describing the Universe The speed of the Earth in its orbit round the Sun is 29.8 km s−1, in a heliocentric frame. But to specify the velocity vector, it is not sufficient to specify the Sun as the origin of the coordinate system; fixed directions must also be identified.

Heat-shock proteins (Hsps) are chaperone proteins that maintain the structure and function of proteins in cells exposed to high temperatures. The initial response of cells to high temperatures is rapid transcription of heat-shock genes, e.g. Hsp70, which is possible because Hsp70 is normally partly transcribed by RNA polymerase II.

Their flexibility derives from rotation around bonds in the sugar-phosphate backbone (Figure 3b). In vivo, the structures that form are obviously determined by both the proteins that synthesise the nucleic acid chains (polymerases) and the ancillary proteins that bind to and modify them. We will discuss these aspects of structure later in this unit.

B Therefore, an emotion is a set of bodily feelings. 1 Crossing boundaries: a case study A number of situations put a strain on the idea that caring is just an extension of 'being ordinary'. These include times when people are giving intimate care. Since the normal rules do not apply in these circumstances, we have to develop a set of special rules to guide practice, thinking very carefully about the core question: 'How can boundaries be respected in situations where intimate care is being given?’' This question will be explored through a fictional case study set in a res And Then Came Tango at The Growing Stage Introduction to Data Visualisation
Question 13
Since the dawn of civilisation, humans have used everyday materials to create mathematical models of the world around them. This album explores the ancient Greeks' astrolabe as a model of the skies; the sundial, to tell the time; Babylonian clay tablets to record wages and trading of sheep; wooden tallies for bulk-buying beer, the Incas' use of knots and string, and the sophisticated number-engine invented by Charles Babbage. This material forms part of The Open University course MST121 Using ma

The democratisation of the Internet has led to the emergence of influencers who sometimes have more followers, reach and influence than brands themselves. How can luxury brands manage and engage with such influencers?

The Growing Stage, The Children’s Theatre of New Jersey, will present the world premiere of And Then Came Tango on Friday, March 6th. Inspired by a true story, the play revolves around the case of two male penguins at the Central Park Zoo who established a bond to hatch an orphaned egg. Written by Emily Freeman, and featuring choreography by Jillian Petrie and original music by Paul Marbach, "And Then Came Tango" is a celebration of tolerance and the eternal instinct that guides one generation
