Clifford Geertz became the face of the discipline of anthropology during the 1970s. With his new approach to synthesizing fieldwork and his conceptualization of the connection between biological evolution and cultural evolution, his work transcended the boundaries of discipline by altering perspectives and frameworks in fields such as philosophy and biology. During the same decade, playwright and writer Alice Walker influenced a resurgence of Zora Neale Hurston’s publications on the Black…

We first evaluated whether Honokiol treatment was toxic to the APP-CHO cell line. Cells were treated with various concentrations of Honokiol (0.5 μM, 1 μM, 2 μM, 5 μM, 10 μM and 20 μM) for 24 h and cell survival was determined by Prestoblue® assay (Fig.1A). As shown in Fig.1A, when exposed to Honokiol concentrations of 10 μM or lower, the viability of APP-CHO cells was the same as untreated control cells. However, a significant decrease in cell viability was observed with 20 μM Honokiol…

As a fifth grade teacher it is my goal to provide a classroom environment that stimulates the diverse learner population. Traditionally, the majority of the lessons are plan toward the level of understanding of most of the student, but by incorporating educational resources in the classroom, the entire classroom population can involve in learning simultaneously. Multimedia: Interactive Software Research is studying the probable benefits of computer-based instruction is substantiated in basic…

Summary Heat stress has shown to be detrimental to male reproduction, affecting the testicles and spermatogenesis. In 2010, a study was conducted in Iran using male lambs which were exposed to chronic heat stress. The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of moderate and high temperatures on testicular structures and on testosterone and cortisol concentrations in the developing ram lambs. Twenty fall born ram lambs were randomly assigned to a group: either to an outdoor heat…

A teacher’s goal is to maximize his or her student’s potential. Traditionally, the biggest challenge for students with disabilities was to meet their needs in the areas of social, behavioral, cognitive, perceptive and motor skills (Adebisi et al. 14). A learning disability is defined by the Schwab Foundation as a person who is diagnosed by a professional with a difficulty as a result of a CNS dysfunction in the areas or reading, writing, math, science, reasoning speaking, or listening. In order…

The SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line was procured from National Centre for Cell Sciences, India and maintained in (DMEM) (Sigma Aldrich, USA) and Ham 's F12 nutrient mixture (F12) (Sigma Aldrich, USA) in 1:1 ratio. The medium was supplemented with 2 mmol L-glutamine (HiMedia, India), 10% (v/v) heat inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Hyclone Laboratories, Logan, UT) and 1% antibiotics (penicillin/streptomycin). Cells were cultured at 37 ºC in a humidified CO2 ¬incubator containing 5% CO2 and…

Messier 81 also known as NGC 3031 or Bode's Galaxy) is a spiral galaxy about 12 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. Due to its proximity to Earth large size and active galactic nucleus] or supermassive black hole), Messier 81 has been studied extensively by professional astronomers. The galaxy's large size and relatively high brightness also make it a popular target for amateur astronomer. Messier 81 was first discovered by Johann Elert Bode in 1774.Consequently, the galaxy…

Galileo’s Contributions Galileo Galilei, an Italian astronomer, played a major role in the scientific revolution. He laid the foundation of modern physics and astronomy. Initially, he studied medicine at the University of Pisa, but lost interest. Soon after that, Galileo developed an interest in mathematics and physics and began observing our solar system. While observing the solar system, he developed his own scientific method.. He later helped develop the modern scientific method, which…

We all want to belong. We all want to feel part of something important. In his book The Patriotism of Despair, Serguei Alex Oushakine examines the magnification of this desire amid ideological turmoil in post-Soviet Russia. Drawing from interviews conducted during his fieldwork in Barnaul from 2001 to 2003 and scholarship published in the Altai region, Oushakine uncovers post-Soviet Russian nationalism as grounded in a pessimistic discourse of loss. Although he concentrates on how traumatic…

The universe is ever-expanding and constantly growing. The world relies on systems, structures, and patterns-- in which explanations and interpretations are often sought after. Mathematics becomes the solution and discovery that humanity seeks, in which it then can elaborate on the unknown, mysteries, and the incomprehensible. The existence of mathematics is a subtle thing; functioning quietly throughout our daily lives. Moreover, mathematics weaves itself within various aspects of our natural…
