Åssiden is the largest borough of Drammen in Buskerud county, Norway.

Drammen Racecourse

Åssiden was a part of Lier municipality until 1951, when it became part of Drammen municipality. Åssiden is located on the western side of Drammen, north of the Drammenselva. Historically Åssiden was the location through which lumber was transported via Drammenselva into the city. Åssiden Elvepark is a park which was built on old landfill sites by the Drammenselva.

Åssiden is the location of the vocational school, Åssiden Upper Secondary School (Åssiden videregående skole). Åssiden IF is a local sports club which has sections for association football and team handball. Drammen Racecourse (Drammen Travbane) is also located in Åssiden.

Åssiden Church (Åssiden Kirke) dates from 1967. It is designed by the architects Harald Hille and Odd Østbye. The building was built of brick and has 350 seats. It is part of the Drammen prosti in the Tunsberg diocese.

There are two alpine ski lifts off E 134 on the road to Mjøndalen. The site offers 100 km of cross-country ski tracks and 42 km of illuminated ski tracks in the hills above Åssiden.

Ecological health

Not to be confused with Environmental health or Ecosystem health.

Ecological health is a term that has been used in relation to both human health and the condition of the environment.

  * In medicine, ecological health has been used to refer to multiple chemical sensitivity, which results from exposure to synthetic chemicals (pesticides, smoke, etc.) in the environment, hence the term ecological.
  * The term has also been used in medicine with respect to management of environmental factors (taxes, health insurance surcharges) that may reduce the risk of unhealthy behavior such as smoking.
  * As an urban planning term, ecological health refers to the "greenness" of cities, meaning composting, recycling, and energy efficiency.
  * With respect to broader environmental issues, ecological health has been defined as "the goal for the condition at a site that is cultivated for crops, managed for tree harvest, stocked for fish, urbanized, or otherwise intensively used."

Ecological health differs from ecosystem health, the condition of ecosystems, which have particular structural and functional properties,

The term health is intended to evoke human environmental health concerns, which are often closely related (but as a part of medicine not ecology). As with ecocide, that term assumes that ecosystems can be said to be alive (see also Gaia philosophy on this issue). While the term integrity or damage seems to take no position on this, it does assume that there is a definition of integrity that can be said to apply to ecosystems. The more political term ecological wisdom refers not only to recognition of a level of health, integrity or potential damage, but also, to a decision to do nothing (more) to harm that ecosystem or its dependents. An ecosystem has a good health if it is capable of self-restoration after suffering external disturbances. This is termed resilience.

Measures of broad ecological health, like measures of the more specific principle of biodiversity, tend to be specific to an ecoregion or even to an ecosystem. Measures that depend on biodiversity are valid indicators of ecological health as stability and productivity (good indicators of ecological health) are two ecological effects of biodiversity. Dependencies between species vary so much as to be difficult to express abstractly. However, there are a few universal symptoms of poor health or damage to system integrity:


Ecological health

* The buildup of waste material and the proliferation of simpler life forms (bacteria, insects) that thrive on it - but no consequent population growth in those species that normally prey on them;
  * The loss of keystone species, often a top predator, causing smaller carnivores to proliferate, very often overstressing herbivore populations;
  * A higher rate of species mortality due to disease rather than predation, climate, or food scarcity;
  * The migration of whole species into or out of a region, contrary to established or historical patterns;
  * The proliferation of a bioinvader or even a monoculture where previously a more biodiverse species range existed.

Some practices such as organic farming, sustainable forestry, natural landscaping, wild gardening or precision agriculture, sometimes combined into sustainable agriculture, are thought to improve or at least not to degrade ecological health, while still keeping land usable for human purposes. This is difficult to investigate as part of ecology, but is increasingly part of discourse on agricultural economics and conservation.

Ecotage is another tactic thought to be effective by some in protecting the health of ecosystems, but this is hotly disputed. In general, low confrontation and much attention to political virtues is thought to be important to maintaining ecological health, as it is far faster and simpler to destroy an ecosystem than protect it—thus warscompetition.

Deforestation and the habitat destruction of deep-sea coral reef are two issues that prompt deep investigation of what makes for ecological health, and fuels a great many debates. The role of clearcuts, plantations, and trawler nets is often portrayed as negative in the extreme, held akin to the role of weapons on human life. (See Human impact on the environment.)

Albert William Stevens

For other people named Albert Stevens, see Albert Stevens (disambiguation).

Albert William Stevens (March 13, 1886 – March 26, 1949) was an officer of the United States Army Air Corps, balloonist, and aerial photographer.

Biography

He was born on March 13, 1886, in Belfast, Maine. He graduated from the University of Maine in 1909 with a master's degree in electrical engineering.

While flying over South America in 1930, Stevens took the first photograph of the Earth in a way that the horizon's curvature is visible.

Accompanied by Lieutenant Charles D. McAllister of the Army Air Corps, Stevens took the first photograph of the Moon's shadow projected onto the Earth during a solar eclipse in August, 1932.

On July 29, 1934, Stevens and two other Army Air Corps officers, Major William Kepner and Captain Orvil Arson Anderson, ascended in a specially-constructed balloon and gondola named Explorer I over north-western Nebraska in an attempt to exceed the current altitude record for manned flight. However, nearing the current record height, the balloon envelope ruptured, sending the gondola plunging to earth.

On November 11, 1935, Stevens, along with Captain Anderson, made a record balloon ascent from the "Stratobowl" (a natural depression) near Rapid City, South Dakota.NBC radio broadcast.Explorer II floated to 72,395 feet (22,066 m), nearly 14 miles (23 km), a world altitude record unequaled until 1946 and a balloon record unequaled until 1956.

Stevens was twice awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross – one award for each of his two famous balloon flights.

He died on March 26, 1949, in Redwood City, California.

Albert Wilkes

Albert Wilkes (6 September 1875 – 9 December 1936footballer in the early years of professional football in England, who played for Aston Villa from August 1898 to July 1907. Before playing for Villa he played for West Bromwich Albion and Walsall.

A player of parts and a worthy follower of past Villa heroes. Scrupulously fair and honest in tackling, a willing worker, and an adept at finding openings for goal in big games. No place in the half-back line comes amiss to him. A quite, unostentatious player of the untiring order, he has done his share in raising the tone of football both on and off the field. 'Straight as a die', he is a general and deserved favourite.

The Villa News and Record 1 September 1906

Wilkes instantly experienced success at Villa Park, playing a bit part in the club's 1898–99 title success before establishing himself as a first team regular in their 1899–1900 title victory. He was less fortunate in the FA cup where he found himself part of a Villa side beaten in a famous cup upset by Southern League Millwall Athletic.

He made five appearances for England, between March 1901 and May 1902, scoring the equalizing goal against Scotland in a 2–2 draw at Villa Park on 3 May 1902 – this was the replay of the match that was abandoned as a result of the first Ibrox disaster on 5 April 1902, in which 25 people died and 517 were injured.

He began his photographic career whilst still a player and he continued until his death. His son Albert Wilkes Junior continued the business until it was sold to leading photographic agency Colorsport in 1970.

Emma Schenson

Emma Schenson

Emma Sofia Perpetua Schenson (21 September 1827 – 17 March 1913) was a Swedish photographer and painter. She was one of the earliest female professional photographers in Sweden.

Biography

Photograph of Uppsala Cathedral, 1889

Born in Uppsala on 21 September 1827, Schenson was the daughter of the academy treasurer John Schenson and the school administrator Maria Magdalena Hahr. There are no records of her education or of how she became familiar with photography.

Emma Smith (gymnast)

Emma Smith (born 24 September 1991) is a British trampoline gymnast and champion best known for holding the world record for difficulty of routine performed in competition by a woman. The difficulty was 16.00DD and was achieved on 8 October 2011 in Odense, Denmark. She is also the only woman to have competed three triple somersaults in a routine.

Early life and education

Smith attended Wade Deacon High School in Widnes, Cheshire, England.

Career

Smith began her sports career in Artistic Gymnastics with the City of Liverpool Gymnastics Club and became British Espoir Champion in 2003. She left that discipline due to injuries, and made the switch to Trampoline Gymnastics in 2004. From that point, she has excelled at an exceptional rate and has made a name for herself within the sport worldwide. Beginning trampolining at Aerodynamics, Smith returned to the City of Liverpool Gymnastics Club (Trampoline Squad) and settled with coach Jay Scouler. In 2007 Smith took the Junior Girls Trampoline Gymnastics British title.

As a junior in the sport, Smith achieved a place on the British team and competed internationally for the first time in 2007 at the World Age Championships, held in Canada. There, she picked up a severe knee injury, which put her in a cast and on crutches for three months. Following four weeks of intense physiotherapy, and six months of being back on a trampoline, she became Junior European Champion in April 2008, in Odense, Denmark. Later that year Smith underwent surgery on her injured knee.

In 2009, Smith competed in her second World Age Championships, held in St Petersburg, Russia, taking the silver medal in the 17–18 girls category. It was her last event as a junior as she made her transition to a senior in 2010.

As a senior in the sport, Smith continued to represent her country. Her first international competition at this level came in the form of the Trampolining World Cup event held in Belgium during March 2010, at which she easily qualified for the final. Later that year she went on to take the Senior Trampoline Gymnastics British Ladies Title and her first international senior individual medal; a bronze at the Albacete World Cup in August 2010.


Emma Smith (gymnast)

She sold over 200 of the artifacts she collected during her travels to Rudolf F. Haffenreffer; these are held by the Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology. Two islands in the Mackenzie River are named in her honor. Agnes Deans Cameron, Elizabeth Taylor, and Clara Coltman Rogers Vyvyan were Colcleugh's contemporaries in traveling through the Western Arctic. She affiliated with several clubs, including the New England Woman's Press Association, Rhode Island Woman's Club, Providence Fortnightly Club, Providence Mothers' Club, Sarah E.

Emma Shaw Colcleugh

Traveler, correspondent, lecturer

In 1881, she began her literary and lecturing career as a part of her travels.Northwest, for the purpose of regaining her strength. Her tour of the Great Lakes and the Mississippi became the subject of a series of sketches in the Providence "Press". She made other trips in the following years, and each time she described her journeys in a series of articles. In 1884, she published a series of illustrated articles in the "Journal of Education", continuing from February till June, after which she visited Alaska, and then delivered a lecture on that area before clubs and lyceums. In 1885, she revisited Alaska, returning via the Yellowstone National Park. She traveled in the West extensively in 1886–87, and in 1888, she extended her journeys into Canada, penetrating the Hudson's Bay Company's country, where no other reporter had ventured.Cree, Chipewyan, and Slavey people.Boston Transcript.

Emma Shaw Colcleugh

Of her picnic with Tahitians, she was to say, "To tell just how this was brought about would involve a long story of a disabled steamer, rescue by natives, long days of waiting in one of the Tahitian villages upon the beautiful island of Morea, and the final chartering of a row-boat and crew of Tahitians, to hurry me to Papeete, 25 miles (40 km) away, in time for the sailing of the steamer for New Zealand..."Yukon and Northwest Territory, "I saw an Indian woman whose husband had deserted her for a fairer squaw, and she with her babe on her back had in the dead of winter made her way alone almost a hundred miles from their wilderness hunting-ground to the Hudson Bay Fort (at the Peel River, about 64 degrees north), knowing well that there she would be cared for. So she was, but her condition was pitiful. Both breasts frozen, and almost famished, she had managed to keep alive her little one and drag herself to the post enclosure, where they had difficulty in restoring her. When I saw her, her recreant husband was with her, and from her devotion to him, one would scarcely believe she had been so cruelly treated by him. Women's hearts are about the same, are they not, the world over, whether the skin be fair or dusky?"Boston Transcript. Her tour took her thousands of miles into places never before trod by a European woman. Contrary to the advice of her friends, who attempted to dissuade her from the expedition, Colcleugh sailed from New York City in May 1902 for Mombasa, where she boarded the Uganda railway to Lake Victoria, Nyanza Province. Arrived at Mombasa, she was strongly advised not to attempt the journey over the new railroad, as for the last 50 miles (80 km) there were only temporary tracks, liable at any time to give way and derail the train, but Colcleugh was not to be dissuaded and she arrived at the lake in good time. Crossing in a small lake steamer to Mengo, Uganda, she made that the central point from which to conduct short expeditions through the surrounding country for study of the conditions and the peoples, and she brought home many valuable and interesting relics.

More than 200 of Colcleugh's artifacts were sold to Rudolf F. Haffenreffer in 1930, and they are now held by the Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology in Bristol, Rhode Island.

Writer

Colcleugh published her first poem, "New Year's Eve," in 1883.Providence Journal since 1895. For six years, she reviewed books for the Providence Journal along lines of travel and ethnology. Her letters from Cuba at the time of the Spanish–American War appeared in the Providence Journal, Boston Transcript, New York Evening Post, and other periodicals.

"Nahanni"

The poem "Nahanni" was written, on a steamer as Colcleugh was passing mountains along the South Nahanni River.

No single peaks, no mountains lone, But one unbroken wall of stone, Its topmost crags all robed in mist, Its granite feet by billows kissed. Soft clouds above, the stream below, Dark, grim depths that plainly show The scars where Spring's impetuous tide Rolled downward to Mackenzie wide. The mountain torrents dash along, Streamlets at first, then rivers strong, When the Frost-King loses hold And Summer's sun succeeds the cold. When icy fetters chain no more, And streams are free from shore to shore. O'er rocky bastion, turrets gray, The fleecy cloudlets tirelessly play. Till weird effects of light and shade On adamantine walls are made. The walls a mighty fortress stand Guarding in strength “the Wild North Land,” And keeping watch as to the sea The great Mackenzie wanders free. Once, only, ope the portals wide That the Na' silver tide May add a tributary mite, Stealing beneath a bare bold height, To lose itself in grander stream. I've watched the sunset's ruddy gleam Grow pale, then slowly die away Behind the heights at close of day. I've watched the somber shadows fall Upon this time-old mountain wall; I've seen it flashing in the dawn, Or radiant in full light of morn. Each, all alike, have charms for me, nd oft in memory shall I see, When distant far from this lone land, The pictures of this mountain grand.

The Bells (The Originals song)

"The Bells" is a 1970 single recorded by The Originals for Motown's Soul label, produced by Marvin Gaye and co-written by Gaye, his wife Anna Gordy Gaye, Iris Gordy, and Elgie Stover.

History

Shortly after the release of the Originals' first hit "Baby, I'm for Real", Motown issued this similarly produced record, which was a Marvin Gaye production. Gaye had proved skeptics at the label wrong by producing a hit song for another act. Both "Baby I'm for Real" and "The Bells" set the precedent for Gaye's 1971 landmark album What's Going On.

Primarily functioning as background session singers at Motown during much of the 1960s, The Originals would continue to provide background vocals for Gaye until 1973.

"The Bells" peaked at number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States, and reached number four on the Hot Black Singles chart.Down to Love Town".

Other Covers

Laura Nyro version

On her 1971 album Gonna Take a Miracle, singer-songwriter Laura Nyro performed a version of "The Bells" with backing vocals by the group Labelle.

Color Me Badd version

Two decades later, 1990s R&B band Color Me Badd covered the song on their 1993 album, Time and Chance. Much like After 7's cover of "Baby I'm for Real" two years prior, the song entered the R&B charts again, but didn't prove to be as successful as After 7's venture.

Dorcus miwai

Dorcus miwai is a species of stag beetle that is endemic to Taiwan. They are small in size, but may be aggressive when provoked; however, they are not as aggressive as the Dorcus Titanus beetles. They can live 1-2 years in captivity with proper care. Dorcus miwai beetles are usually easy to care for in captivity. Their diet mainly consists of fruits and sap from trees. In captivity, beetle jelly from pet stores will readily be accepted. Fruits, such as grapes and watermelons, that are high in water content are not suitable for these beetles, as they may drown.

Åsskard Church

Åsskard Church (Norwegian: Åsskard kyrkje) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Surnadal Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located in the village of Åsskard. It is the church for the Åsskard parish which is part of the Indre Nordmøre prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Møre. The white, wooden church was built in a long church design in 1876 using plans drawn up by the architect Jacob Wilhelm Nordan. The church seats about 250 people.municipality of Åsskard which existed from 1895 until 1965.

History

View of the church

A royal decree from 19 August 1874 granted permission to build the church in Åsskard. Christian Hovde was hired as the main builder and Jacob Wilhelm Nordan was the architect. Another royal decree from 7 August 1876 created the new parish of Åsskard. The new building was consecrated by Bishop Andreas Grimelund on 9 November 1876. Åsskard church is built as a wooden long church with a west tower, rectangular nave, and a rectangular choir with a sacristy extension on the east end. The neo-Gothic altarpiece is said to have been made in 1876 by the brothers Lars and Gudmund Brekken according to drawings by Christian Hovde. In 1960, the church was enlarged by adding some small rooms around the base of the tower.

The Bells received mainly positive reviews on release. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has received a score of 75, based on 6 reviews which is categorised as generally favorable.BBC Music, Spencer Grady observed "The resultant pieces feel so alive that you can almost sense the pressure of Frahm’s fingers alighting on each key as these solemn improvisations begin to weave their magic. Their unrefined organic energy and resonance is undoubtedly due to the natural reverb of the old church in Berlin where this set was recorded".Rock Sound reviewer Joe Marshall enthused "The Bells is a consistently fascinating listen. Possessing a grandeur that never descends into pomposity and a restraint that could never be mistaken for bland aural wallpaper, this is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful releases you’re likely to hear over the coming months'.MusicOMH, Ben Hogwood said "The Bells is a mixed bag of accomplished piano pieces that could do with a bit more subtlety in those passages where the intensity rises. It’s those softer, more intimate asides that have the greatest impact, allowing the listener to truly connect with Nils Frahm and his message. And that’s where the simple beauty of the piano shines through".Pitchfork, Brian Howe gave the album 4.8 out of 10 saying "The bottom line is that The Bells tends to be either tedious and pretty or interesting and caustic; it often feels unpleasantly satisfied with itself.".

Artificial lateral line

An Artificial Lateral Line (ALL) is a biomimetic lateral line system. A lateral line is a system of sensory organs in aquatic animals such as fish, that serves to detect movement, vibration, and pressure gradients in their environment. An artificial lateral line is an artificial biomimetic array of distinct mechanosensory transducers that, similarly, permits the formation of a spatial-temporal image of the sources in immediate vicinity based on hydrodynamic signatures; the purpose is to assist in obstacle avoidance and object tracking.Global Positioning System signals.SONAR and optical imaging.

The basic component of either a natural or artificial lateral line is a neuromast, a mechanoreceptive organ that allows the sensing of mechanical changes in water. Hair cells serve as the basic unit in flow and acoustic sensing. Some species (like arthropods) use a single hair cell for this function and other creatures like fish use a bundle of hair cells to achieve pointwise sensing.transduction of rate coding to transmit the directionality of the signal.

Biomimetic features

Neuromast

In the artificial lateral line, neuromast's function is carried out by using transducers. These tiny structures employ various systems such as hot-wire anemometry,optoelectronicspiezoelectric cantileversrheotaxis and station holding as well.

Simplified Hot-wire sensor

Out of all the sensing techniques employed, only hot-wire anemometry is non directional. This technique can accurately measure the particle motion in the medium but not the direction of flow. However hot wire anemometer and the data collected is adequate to determine particle motion up to hundreds of nanometers and as a result is comparable with a neuromast in similar flow.Joule heating. The flow around the current carrying wire causes it to cool and the change in current required to restore the original temperature is the output. In another variant, the change in resistivity of the material with respect to the change in temperature of the hot wire is used at the output.

Division of labor

There is a division of labor technique employed in these systems wherein superficial neuromasts located on the epidermis senses low frequencies as well as direct current (flow) while the canal neuromast located beneath the epidermis enclosed in canals detect alternating current using pressure gradients.

Cupula

Cupula is a gelatinous sack covering over hair like neuromast protruding from the skin. Cupula formed over neuromast is another feature that developed over time that provides a better response to the flow field.

Canals

Canal Neuromasts are enclosed in canals that run across the body. These canals filter out low-frequency flow that could saturate the system.

Canal distribution along the body

Commonly, the canal concentration peaks near the nose and drops significantly over the rest of the body. This trend is found in fish of varying sizes that occupy different habitats and across a variety of species. Some studies hypothesize the close connection between canal location and bone development and how they are morphologically constrained. The exact placement of canals varies across species and can be a suggestive sign of functional role rather than developmental constraint.

Canal flexibility

The flexibility of the canal system has a significant effect on low-frequency signal attenuation. The flexibility of the sensing element placed in the canal system may add to the sensitivity of the Canal Artificial Line (CALL) system. Experimental data proves that this factor creates a significant jump in the sensitivity of the system. Geometric improvements in the canal system and optimizing the sensing equipment for better results.

Constrictions in canals near neuromast

At higher pressure gradients, the voltage output of devices with wall constrictions near the sensors in the canal lateral line( CALL) were much more sensitive and according to Y Jiang, Z Ma, J Fu, et al their system could perceive a pressure gradient as low as 3.2 E−3 Pa/5 mm comparable to that of Cottus bairdii found in nature. Additionally, this feature attenuates low-frequency hydrodynamic signals.

Applications


Artificial lateral line

Applications

Navigation in shallow water bodies present a challenge especially for submersible vehicles. Flow fluctuations may adversely affect the trajectory of the craft making on-line detection and real time reaction an absolute necessity for adaptability.

Progress in the field of artificial lateral line has benefited various fields other than underwater navigation. A major example is the field of seismic imaging. The idea of selective frequency response in superficial neuromast

Similar systems

Electrosensory lateral line (ELL) employs passive electrolocation except for certain groups of freshwater fish that utilize active electrolocation to emit and receive electric fields. It can be distinguished from LLS based on the acute difference in their operation besides similar roles

Integumentary Sensory Organs (ISO's) are other sensory dome-shaped organs found in the cranial region of crocodiles. It is a collection of sensory organs that can detect mechanical, ph and thermal changes. These mechanoreceptors are classified into two. The first of which is Slow Adapting receptors (SA) that sense steady flow. The second is Rapid Adapting receptors (RA) that sense oscillatory stimuli. ISO can potentially detect direction of disturbance with high accuracy in 3D space.

Evans was the only player from South Walesfirst Welsh international XI, with the others all from North Wales (other than John Hawley Edwards who was born in Shrewsbury in England and had previously represented the England national football team). The match was played at Hamilton Crescent, Partick, the home of the West of Scotland Cricket Club on 25 March 1876 and the Welsh were well defeated, conceding four goals without reply.

The return match came on 5 March 1877 at the Racecourse Ground, Wrexham, with Evans retaining his place in defence.own goal for the second goal.

He served six years in the Wisconsin State Senate (1977–1983) representing the west side of the city of Milwaukee, and was a member of the Milwaukee Common Council and the Milwaukee School Board.

Early life and career

Braun was born in Eden, in Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin, and graduated from St. Mary Springs High School in Fond du Lac.Marquette University in Milwaukee, where he earned his bachelor's degree in political science in 1956. After earning his degree, Braun became a history teacher and football coach at Milwaukee's Pius XI High School. He also served in the United States Army Reserve from 1957 through 1963. In the late 1960s, Braun continued his own education at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, and earned his master's degree in history in 1970.Marquette University Law School but did not finish.

Political career

In 1968, Braun ran successfully for a seat on the Milwaukee Common Council from Milwaukee's 16th ward.open housing ordinance for the city.

In 1976, incumbent Wisconsin state senator Wayne F. Whittow, who represented Milwaukee's west side district—then the 11th State Senate district—resigned in the middle of his term after his election as Milwaukee city treasurer.special election was called for November 1976 to fill the vacancy for the remaining two years of the term, and Braun decided to enter the race.

He was re-elected in 1978 without opposition. In 1982, the Wisconsin Legislature failed to pass a redistricting act and, as a result, a lawsuit led to redistricting being carried out by a panel of federal judges. Braun's Senate district was dismembered, and he instead chose to enter the Democratic primary for a vacancy in Wisconsin's 5th congressional district. Braun came in 4th in a field of ten candidates in the primary, taking 14% of the vote.
