Reclaiming the Power
In this video segment from Cyberchase, Hacker has consumed most of the power-supplying Cosmic Crumpets. Only pieces of crumpets are left. The CyberSquad must help Shari Spotter to restore the Frogsnorts wizards’ power by putting the remaining pieces of crumpets together, which involves the addition of fractions and converting mixed numbers to improper fractions. Then they must share the pieces equally among the seven wizards. (4:30)

This is part of a geology course through Laurentian University in Ontario. "Understanding the Earth" originally aired on TVO Ontario in 1975 and re-broadcasted in 1986. Provided by mineguy101.

3.2 The anatomy of the language system Perhaps the best-known generalisation about the language system is that it is represented on one side of the brain – usually the left – more than the other. Many lines of evidence support this view. Specific impairments to linguistic abilities are known as aphasia, and aphasia results much more often from damage to the left hemisphere of the brain than from damage to the right. It is also possible to temporarily deactivate one or other hemisphere. This is usually done as an investi

You may find that even if you do have some sort of filing system, your structure soon gets quite large with files in multiple locations, which can be hard to navigate. You may find yourself making arbitrary decisions about which folder to place a document in. It may make sense now but in the future, when you look where you think it should be, it's not there. At times like this you may resort to the search command from the Wind 6.006 Introduction to Algorithms (MIT) 7 New Lanark as showpiece and text Owen's partnership of 1814, consisting of Bentham and other enlightened individuals, mainly wealthy Quakers, paved the way for the rapid implementation of the innovations spelled out in the Statement of 1812 and subsequently in the essays. Two of the partners, William Allen (1770–1843), a chemist and businessman, and the wealthy and philanthropic John Walker (1767–1824), Owen's closest associate, were interested in education and had encouraged the establishment of schools adopting Learning outcomes After completing this course, you should be able to: evaluate end-of-life care approaches in the UK and challenges to care delivery evaluate the usefulness of theoretical models of death, dying and bereavement recognise the relevance of critical social perspectives associated with death, dying and bereavement critically reflect on policy and practice in order to promote the interests of dying and bereaved people. Conclusion I hope this course has made clearer what a business manager can do to impact positively on the school and its core function of teaching and learning as we move forward into a changing future. You may now find it helpful to revisit your job description and the notes you made in Activity 1. Equally, through some of the new developments that are taking place in society, the school itself will need business management in order to best position itself to help pupils, parents and commun Lump-sum Pension Payments: Who Are the Winners and Losers? Photo Slideshow: The UA, a Local University with a Global Reach 1.1 The biological effects of ethanol This section investigates some of the harmful effects that a high level of blood-ethanol can have on the body: both short-term problems such as ‘hangover’, and long-term health problems that are associated with regular heavy drinking. Whilst this section is primarily about the biological effects that ethanol has on various organs of the body, it is important to remember that the socioeconomic effects of heavy drinking are also very serious (Paton, 2005).

FORM presents Awkward Beauty; an interdisciplinary collaboration between Munich-based contemporary jeweller Helen Britton, Perth garment designer Justine McKnight and Perth photographer Michelle Taylor based on the vast physicality of a 17 hectare historic railwayworkshop site on the outskirts of Perth. This exhibition is an outcome of FORM's Midland Atelier International Creative Residency Program. The proje
A short video on the buffalo or bison and their impact on America and the Native Americans. Only 600 or so we left in the early 1900s. Too short to be of real value, but a story about what happens when there are no protection or rules for killing animals. This would be a good compare and contrast video to show with the killing of wolves, or as part of a lesson about why buffalo were important to the Native Americans, but not essential to the settlers. Part of a series on Indians.
This course provides an introduction to mathematical modeling of computational problems. It covers the common algorithms, algorithmic paradigms, and data structures used to solve these problems.

Among other things, the University of Arizona is known for its scholarly research, the success of its athletics program and for having an active student body. But did you know that UA's community also has been praised in numerous other areas, such as community outreach, research abroad, expansive collections in the arts, the development of new technologies and methods and for its students who have gone on to become greatly successful alumni? There is so much more to know about this great institu
If a gas is injected into a liquid it forms a cellular foam structure. When a thermoset prepolymer of low viscosity is foamed, the polymer can drain from the cell walls (driven by surface tension) before it sets at the cell edges, leaving an open-celled foam. The cell edges have three concave sides. The average co-ordination number for the nodes (where struts meet) is four, giving tetrahedral junctions. The deformation behaviour of the foam was observed by X-ray microtomography at the ESRF i
