Climate change in Ohio

"Between 1994 and 2011, reduced ice cover lengthened the shipping season on the lakes by eight days. The Great Lakes are likely to warm another 3° to 7°F in the next 70 years, which will further extend the shipping season."

Higher water temperature leads to greater algae blooms. Worsening storms also increase run-off into the Great Lakes, and overflow of sewers into the Great Lakes, worsening water quality.

Disease

Areas in Ohio are potentially vulnerable to "formerly tropical illnesses" like Zika and West Nile making their way into the state.

Adaptation to climate change in Ohio

Ohio has not adopted or developed a statewide adaptation plan, though local governments like Cleveland and Columbus have.

Proposed adaptations

Kimble Complex Fire, 2022

Due to things like stronger storms, worsening droughts, and higher incidence of "mold toxins, like aflatoxin in corn, soy, and small grain crops," farmers in Ohio "will need to adapt by developing new cropping schedules and different crop choices."fertilizer management are needed to address elevated phosphorus in agricultural runoff in the Maumee River watershed, which contributes to toxic algae blooms of cyanobacteria in Lake Erie.

While spring rainfall and average precipitation are going to increase, droughts in summer are likely to worsen.

Climate march, 2021

The Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center of Ohio State University published a report, the "Columbus Climate Adaptation Plan," which includes a list of proposed actions to adapt and respond to climate change in Central Ohio.

Ohio State University held its first Climate Change Symposium in March 2019.

Charles Thomas Hudson

Charles Thomas Hudson (11 March 1828 – 23 October 1903) was an English naturalist, particularly interested in microscopical research, and in the microscopic animal rotifer.

Early life and teaching career

Hudson was born in 1828 in Brompton, London, third of five sons of John Corrie Hudson, chief clerk of the Legacy Duty Office, and wife Emily. His father in youth was an advanced radical and friend of William Godwin, of the Shelleys, Charles Lamb and William Hazlitt.

He was educated at Kensington Grammar School and The Grange, Sunderland. He was musical, and as a young man wrote and composed songs. Family circumstances compelled him to earn his living by teaching at an early age, in Glasgow and later at the Liverpool Royal Institution. In 1848 he went to St John's College, Cambridge, where he graduated in 1852, proceeding M.A. in 1855 and LL.D. in 1866. After leaving Cambridge he became on 25 July 1852 second master of Bristol Grammar School, and on 30 March 1855 he was appointed headmaster.

He resigned this post at midsummer 1860, and in 1861 opened a private school at Manilla Hall, Clifton, Bristol, formerly the residence of Sir William Draper, which he conducted until 1881. Hudson's varied interests and sympathies made the school successful. Afterwards he lived at 6 Royal York Crescent, Clifton; in 1891 he moved to Dawlish, Devon, and in 1899 to Shanklin, Isle of Wight. During his later years he often gave lectures, chiefly at public schools, on natural history, which he illustrated with coloured transparencies of his own construction.

Microscopical research

Hudson devoted his leisure to microscopical research, and in particular to the study of the Rotifera. His first printed paper was on Rhinops Vitrea in the Annals and Magazine of Natural History for 1869. Afterwards he published numerous papers in the Microscopical Journal and the Quarterly Journal of Microscopical Science, describing new genera and species of Rotifera, of which Pedahon mirum was a notable discovery. A list of these papers is given in the Journal of the Royal Microscopical Society for 1904, page 49.

He was elected fellow of the Royal Microscopical Society in 1872; he was president of the society from 1888 to 1890, and an honorary fellow from 1901 until his death.


Charles Thomas Hudson

With Philip Henry Gosse he published in 1886–7 The Rotifera: or Wheel-Animalcules. In recognition of this, the standard monograph on the subject, he was elected Fellow of the Royal Society in 1889. Lord Avebury (Pleasures of Life, ch. 9) quotes the charming introduction of this work as showing that the true naturalist was no mere dry collector. Hudson's natural gift for drawing found expression in the illustrations of The Rotifera.

Hudson died in Shanklin on 23 October 1903, and was buried there. He married on 19 June 1855 Mary Ann Tibbits, and they had one daughter, Florence; his second marriage on 24 June 1858, at Clifton, was to Louisa Maria Fiott Hammond, and they had four sons and five daughters.Journal of the Royal Microscopical Society.

The Hudson Transparencies

The Hudson Transparencies are a collection of 58 large framed manila paper screens made by Hudson, circa 1880s, as teaching aids. Shapes were cut out of the manila paper and decorated with tissue paper, which was painted with watercolour designs. When the transparencies are backlit, striking images of microscopic organisms become apparent. The Hudson Transparencies are held in the University of Exeter Special Collections Department, reference number EUL MS 442.

A study of the transparencies was carried out in 2011 by Robin Wootton for an article in the Report and Transactions of the Devonshire Association 143, where the transparencies were catalogued for the first time and twenty illustrated.

Colorado Plateau

Pictograph, southeastern Utah, c. 1200 BCE Basketmaker culture

The Archaic–Early Basketmaker Era (7000–1500 BCE) was an Archaic cultural period of ancestors to the Ancient Pueblo People. They were distinguished from other Archaic people of the Southwest by their basketry which was used to gather and store food. They became reliant on wild seeds, grasses, nuts, and fruit for food and changed their movement patterns and lifestyle by maximizing the edible wild food and small game within a geographical region. Manos and metates began to be used to process seeds and nuts. With the extinction of megafauna, hunters adapted their tools, using spears with smaller projectile points and then atlatl and darts. Simple dwellings made of wood, brush and earth provided shelter.

The Archaic Basketmaker Era is followed by the Early Basketmaker II Era.

Hunter gatherer culture

Holocene climate changes (beginning about 10,000 BCE) resulted in warmer and drier weather, a contributing factor in the extinction of megafauna, such as the mastodon and mammoth that were hunted by the preceding Paleo-Indians. Besides climate change, the large animals may have perished due to increased human population and their improved hunting techniques. By 6000 BCE two-thirds of all North American animals weighing more than 100 pounds were extinct and the bison antiquus was the only large animal to survive on the Great Plains.

About 5000 BCE Holocene glacial runoff affected Colorado Plateau storm patterns which resulted in significant soil erosion. Between 2500 and 2000 BCE there was significant soil build up. When the climate became too arid to produce sufficient food, people relocated until the rate of precipitation increased. Over time there was an increase in drought-resistant plants and the plants that required regular watering did not survive. Woodlands of spruce and fir were replaced by juniper and pinyon trees in the northern Rio Grande valley. Further south, there were fewer juniper and pinyon trees. Both climatic changes resulted in human movement pattern changes to obtain food.


Archaic–Early Basketmaker Era

The Paleo-Indian had a straightforward movement pattern: follow and hunt the big animals. The Archaic individuals followed a new pattern called "making the seasonal rounds" where they moved to familiar places based upon the growing seasons of plants, their major source of food. In the spring, summer and early fall women harvested seeds, nuts, fruit, grasses, juniper berries and mesquite beans. Any surplus food was stored for later use. Men hunted small game like rabbits using traps and snares. During the fall and winter men hunted deer, big horn sheep, bison and antelope with the atlatl and darts.

Although the number of people increased during the Archaic era, they traveled in small groups6,000 feet (1,800 m) in elevation.projectile points were found within a regional geographic area, made from local stone, an indication that Archaic people ranged across shorter expanses of land. Since they more fully utilized diverse plant and game resources within a region, they didn't need to travel as far to find food. The different shaped tools may have been used for people to identify themselves. The bands of people likely socialized with neighboring tribes, rather than people from distant lands.

Based upon the introduction of cultivation, new dwelling types and artifacts, it is believed that people from southern Arizona and New Mexico moved north and integrated with bands of people in the Colorado Plateau.Early Basketmaker II Era.

Excavation of their campsites and rock shelters revealed that the Archaic-Early Basketmaker people made baskets, tools, gathered wild plants, and killed and processed game. Slab-lined storage cists, found both inside and outside of shelters, were used to store food which indicates a change from a totally nomadic lifestyle.

Basketmaker origin

The population of the Basketmaker people is likely not tied to one particular group of people, but reflective of the migration of agricultural people from the south and adoption of agriculture by local Archaic populations.Mogollon Rim of New Mexico had cultivated maize and adopted a less transitory lifestyle before the Early Basketmaker people.


Archaic–Early Basketmaker Era

Projectile points, a basketry style known as "two rod and bundle", and other similarities existed between artifacts of the Early and Late Basketmaker II Eras and the San Pedro stage of the Cochise tradition.

To adopt the Basketmaker lifestyle, Archaic people would have adopted the cultivation of maize, a less mobile lifestyle and taken up residence in pit-houses. Other differences between the Archaic and Basketmaker cultures were the forms of basketry, symbols used in petroglyphs, burial practices and volume of traded items.

Shelters

Since the people of the Archaic–Early Basketmaker Era were nomadic hunter gatherers who roamed the Colorado Plateau to hunt game or gather seasonal wild plants, their homes were easily built. The bands of people generally inhabited rock alcoves or lived out in the open in brush shelters and lean-tos.Basketmaker pit-houses.

In the summer, campsites were made at high elevations: on the top of mesas or ridges. They also had temporary campsites in the mountains, low mesas and ponds formed by spring runoff. Structures, built in the later part of this period, were built at lower elevations.

Material goods

Items found at the Archaic-Early Basketmaker sites include:

  * Stone scrapers, lithic scatters (tool-making debris), projectile points, knives, milling tools and debris.
  * Crude manos and metates to grind wild nuts and seeds
  * Spears, atlatls and darts
  * Snares
  * Baskets
  * Rope and sandals
  * Clothing made of hides
  * Animal (bighorn sheep, elk, deer) figurines made of twigs
  * Bone and wooden artifacts.

Archaic-Early Basketmaker sites

  * Chaco Canyon More than 70 campsites are located within the Chaco Canyon of New Mexico that span the period from 7000 to 1500 BCE. One site is Atlatl Cave.
  * Chinle Valley Lukachukai and Salina Springs in the Chinle Valley of northeastern Arizona are late Archaic-Early Basketmaker sites.
  * Cove–Red valley area in New Mexico.
  * LaPlata valley of northwestern New Mexico and southwestern Colorado.Colorado LaPlata sites.
  * Mesa Verde region A domed Archaic shelter was found near Mesa Verde, Colorado.
  * Navajo Mountain area Dust Devil cave, dated about 6000 BCE, is located on Navajo Mountain in Arizona.
  * Pecos area There were five Archaic-Early Basketmaker sites found in the Pecos River valley that were likely for hunting deer and gathering wild plants. Eight additional hunting sites are located in the nearby mountains, devoid of wild plant gathering evidence. Three pit-houses were found from the latter years of the period. Sporadic sightings of projectile points and other artifacts were also found.
  * Tohatchi Flats in New Mexico.
  * Ute Mountain Ute Mountain sites are classified by Hurley as late Archaic/Early Basketmaker, but the time period is from 500 BCE – 100 CE, perhaps more indicative of the degree of technology and culture capabilities than the time period.

Sites that may represent a transition to Basketmaker traditions:

  * Upper Gunnison River basin About 8,000 to 3,000 years before present (roughly 6000 to 1000 BCE) inhabitants lived in dwellings and had storage systems similar to those of the Basketmaker II and San Pedro phase of the Cochise tradition.
  * Yarmony House Two pit-houses dated about 6140 to 6410 years before present (about 4000 BCE) appear similar to Basketmaker pit-houses. One of the dwellings, set within a shallow basin, was 19.7 feet (6.0 m) in diameter with an 11 feet (3.4 m) antechamber, or front room. Within the home were a fire pit, slab-lined storage cists, animal bones, and metates and manos to grind wild food. The number of elk, deer, rabbit and other animal bones, and evidence that they were processed to extract bone marrow and grease, suggests that the site was used during the winter season or another period when food was scarce. The site is located in Eagle County, Colorado.


1999 Pocono 500

The 1999 Pocono 500 was a NASCAR Winston Cup Series race that took place on June 20, 1999, at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania. This was the fifteenth race in the 1999 NASCAR Winston Cup Series schedule.

Background

Pocono Raceway was built in 1969 with the first races run in 1971. The first NASCAR race was run in 1974. Pocono is a two-and-a-half mile triangular shaped racetrack with three distinct turns, all modeled after famous IndyCar tracks. Turn one has 14 degrees of banking and is modeled at the now-defunct Trenton Speedway. The "Long Pond Straightaway" connects turns one and two. Turn two, named "tunnel turn," has 9 degrees of banking and is modeled after the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Turn three has 6 degrees of banking and is modeled after the Milwaukee Mile.

Failed to qualify: Hut Stricklin (#90), Loy Allen, Jr. (#58), Derrike Cope (#30)

Race report

There were several hard crashes in this race. Rusty Wallace lost a tire on lap 7 and went straight into the turn one wall around 200 mph. Dave Marcis crashed heavily in turn two on lap 92, went up in the air, and was almost thrown from the car if not for the window net.

Local favorite Jimmy Spencer had a great shot of winning his third Winston Cup race, taking the lead on lap 172. However, on lap 185, Spencer went up the racetrack in the tunnel turn and hit the wall due to oil on the track. He lost the lead to eventual winner Bobby Labonte and Spencer never recovered.

Agecroft Bridge railway station

Agecroft Bridge railway station was on the Manchester, Bolton and Bury Railway. It served the town of Pendlebury in Greater Manchester (then Lancashire) in England. It also served the former Manchester Racecourse and Agecroft area of the town.

History

A 1905 Railway Clearing House Junction Diagram showing (upper right) railways in the vicinity of Agecroft Bridge (shown here as Agecroft)

The Manchester, Bolton and Bury Railway opened to the public on 29 May 1838, and Agecroft Bridge was one of two intermediate stations between Salford and Bolton, the other being Ringley. Later that year, regular passenger services ceased, but the station remained open for meetings at Manchester Racecourse; it was renamed Agecroft at this time. Regular services resumed in October 1857, as did the original name. The station closed permanently in January 1861.

ACS Gauss Bacău

Not to be confused with FCM Bacău or CSM Bacău (football).

Asociația Club Sportiv Gauss Bacău, commonly known as Gauss Bacău (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈɡaʊs baˈkəw]), or simply as Gauss, is a Romanian football club based in Bacău, Bacău County. Founded in 2006 under the name of Mesagerul Bacău, the club promoted to Liga III in 2010, then being bought by Municipality of Bacău and changed its name in SC Bacău. Under this name, the club obtained its best rankings, promoting in the second tier and obtaining at its best a 4th place. In 2016 the Municipality retired its financial support and Sport Club withdrew from the second league, then being bought by Cristian Postolache and merging with his club, Gauss Răcăciuni, changing its name in Gauss Bacău and therefore signing up for the Liga III.

History

First years and ascension

Gauss Bacău was founded in 2006 under the name of Mesagerul Bacău, project started at the initiative of a group of football lovers, a group of friends who used to play five-a-side football and decided to play at a more organized level.

Sports activities started during the 2006–07 competitive season when Mesagerul Bacău was enrolled in the Liga V and the team had surprisingly good results managing to qualify for the Liga IV – Bacău County promotion play-offs after finishing 3rd. Due to lack of experience, the team failed to promote. Next season, Mesagerul was ranked 1st after a great journey thus fulfilling its goal, to promote in the Liga IV. Following the Liga IV promotion, the club managed to obtain a 1st place again, in its very first year of participation, having also a great standing line. Eventually, the promotion to Liga III was missed at penalty shoot-out in front of FC Dumitrești, Vrancea County champions, score 3–5.

In the 2009–10 edition Mesagerul won again the Liga IV and this time promoted to Liga III after winning a promotion play-off match against Mureș County champions, Gaz Metan Târgu Mureș, score 8–7 at penalty shoot-out.


ACS Gauss Bacău

In July 2010, after the promotion, the team was bought by the Municipality of Bacău and changed its name from Mesagerul Bacău to Sport Club Bacău. In its first two seasons of Liga III, SC Bacău was every time ranked as 2nd, then in the 2012–13 Liga III season, which was a great one for the club, SC Bacău managed to take the 1st place and promoted to Liga II. In their first two Liga II seasons, the team played very well and succeeded to obtain a play-off qualification every time, finishing on 6th place, respectively 4th place at the end of the play-off phase.

Name             Period
Mesagerul Bacău  2006–2010
SC Bacău         2010–2017

Downfall

After finishing the 2015–16 Liga II season on 6th place, financial problems made the club join Liga III for the 2016–17 season.

Cornelia van der Gon

Dollhouse Frans Hals Museum

Amstel 210, her home

Cornelia van der Gon (1644 – 1701) was an owner of a show-dollhouse that attracted a following in Amsterdam in the 17th century.

She was born in Haarlem as the daughter of the kastelein of the Stadsdoelen (today the Stadsbibliotheek Haarlem). After her father died in 1667 she moved to Amsterdam, where she became the housekeeper of the Amsterdam architect Adriaan Dortsman and started creating dollhouses in his house in 1680. After he died in 1682 he left her most of his estate, including four houses, of which she kept one to live in on Amstel 210. She married Dorsman's assistant, the artist David van der Plas in 1684 who came to live in her house. He helped her with decorations for the doll houses, as did the landscape painter Jan Wijnants.

Two of her dollhouses were purchased by Sara Rothé when she bought three dollhouses for 1,000 guilders that were advertised for auction on April 2, 1743, in the Amsterdamse Courant. Though Rothé dismantled Van der Gon's dollhouses to create her own, the doll house in the Frans Hals Museum still contains many original details added by Van der Gon.

She died in Amsterdam.

One critic used Chillout 05/The Ultimate Chillout as an example of the growing popularity of chill-out music in the United States.

Chillout 05/The Ultimate Chillout received a mixed rating from David Jeffries, a senior editor for AllMusic. Ultimately, he awarded the compilation three out of five stars. He wrote: "[I] can't blame you if you're cautious about a collection that claims to contain 'the ultimate chillout' and is already up to volume five, but you can't beat Nettwerk's licensing muscle and their taste ain't [sic] bad either."Slate featured the album on a list of chill-out compilations that were popular in the United States. She attributed the popularity of chill-out collections like Chillout 05/The Ultimate Chillout and others due to the introduction of satellite radio channels and outdoor concert festivals devoted to chill-out music debuting throughout the country.

Age of the Dragons

Age of the Dragons is a 2011 fantasy film directed by Ryan Little and starring Danny Glover and Vinnie Jones. A fantasy-themed reimagining of Herman Melville's classic 1851 novel, Moby Dick, it was released in the United Kingdom on March 4, 2011.

Plot

Harpooner Ishmael (Corey Sevier) joins Ahab (Danny Glover) and his crew on the Pequod, in this instance an armored land boat that hunts for dragons. The seven-strong crew ostensibly seeks the precious "vitriol", a highly explosive liquid substance found inside the fire-breathing winged creatures, which powers the mythical realm they live in. Ishmael joins their quest, and soon learns that in fact, Ahab's mission is one of revenge on a particular great white dragon that decades ago scarred and injured him, and killed his sister. Forced to hide from the sunlight due to the burn wounds on his body, Ahab now tries to kill all dragons, and especially the white one. Conflict arises through a romantic entanglement between Ishmael and Ahab's adopted daughter Rachel (Sofia Pernas), which causes hostility from the jealous hothead Flask (Larry Bagby). In the white dragon's lair, Ahab's secrets are revealed and Rachel must choose between following him on his dark quest or escaping to a new life with Ishmael. She chooses the latter and in a final confrontation, Ahab's spear, which was tied to his foot, becomes entangled in the White Dragon's neck. The creature flies off with a screaming Ahab, until he is slammed against a rock pillar and silenced. The white dragon flies off into the distance, with Ahab's body clinging on to it.

Cast

  * Danny Glover as Ahab
  * Vinnie Jones as Stubbs
  * Corey Sevier as Ishmael
  * Sofia Pernas as Rachel
  * Larry Bagby as Flask
  * Kepa Kruse as Queequeg
  * Nico Valencia as Bingzters
  * David Morgan as Starbuck

Development

The film was originally going to be called Dragon Fire.Provo, Utah behind the Utah State Hospital. Other filming locations included Stone Five Studios in the Riverwoods Business Park. Glover was quoted as saying "This is a great idea ... it's going to be fun."


Age of the Dragons

The dragons in the film have back legs only and on the ground use their wings as front legs like pterosaurs did.

Reception

The film received almost universal negative reviews in the British press. The Guardian (1 star out of 5) wrote: "A textbook lesson in how not to adapt a literary classic – though it's so spectacularly bad, it could well achieve mythical status of its own . . . The deadly serious tone just makes it funnier; there's not a whale in sight but this movie blows."The Observer stated "This crude picture, shot in snow-covered Utah, where the Pequod becomes a battle engine on large wooden wheels, is unamusingly ridiculous."Variety added "Generic dialogue and dull incident. Shoddy CGI indicates a production budget that's fatally inadequate for the task at hand."Little White Lies (1 star out of 5) stated "While ropey CG monsters, half-baked stabs at drama, awkwardly-choreographed action sequences and wooden acting are all part of the fun, neither the script, nor Little's direction revel enough in camp or B-movie thrills to give Age of the Dragons true schlock value . . . This pittance fails to make Age of the Dragons anything more than disposable. Expect to find it wedged among the 'Two for £10' DVDs in a year's time, tantalising you with the promise of a so-bad-it's-good quickie. But beware: here be dragons."
