During every moment of an organism's life, sensory information is being taken in by sensory receptors and processed by the nervous system. Humans have five main senses: sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. Sensory memory (SM) allows individuals to retain impressions of sensory information after the original stimulus has ceased. A common demonstration of SM is a child's ability to write letters and make circles by twirling a sparkler at night. When the sparkler is spun fast enough, it appears to leave a trail which forms a continuous image. This 'light trail' is the image that is represented in the visual sensory store know as iconic memory. The other two types of SM that have been most extensively studied are echoic memory, and haptic memory; however, it is reasonable to assume that each physiological sense has a corresponding memory store. Children for example have been shown to remember specific 'sweet' tastes during incidental learning trials but the nature of this gustatory store is still unclear.…

Dypsis canaliculata is a species of flowering plant in the Arecaceae family. It is found only in Madagascar, and has not been seen since 1951. It therefore may be extinct. At the times when specimens were collected, they were found far apart geographically (once in Manongarivo, and once in Ampasimanolotra), but both were growing on sandstone in lowland forest regions. To date no flowers from D. canaliculata have ever been collected for science.…

The Penal Code of California forms the basis for the application of criminal law in the American state of California. It was originally enacted in 1872 as one of the original four California Codes, and has been substantially amended and revised since then. The code is divided into Parts 1 and 2, which each contain 'titles,' some of these being subdivided into 'chapters,' with 'sections' comprising the smallest unit of content. The balance of this article will deal exclusively with the substantive criminal law set out in Part 1, as Part 2 contains only administrative and procedural provisions. California's drug laws are not found within the Penal Code at all, but in a separate enactment, the California Health and Safety Code.…

The National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) is the United States government's official list of districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects deemed worthy of preservation. A property listed in the National Register, or located within a National Register Historic District, may qualify for tax incentives derived from the total value of expenses incurred preserving the property. The passage of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) in 1966 established the National Register and the process for adding properties to it. Of the more than one million properties on the National Register, 80,000 are listed individually. The remainder are contributing resources within historic districts. Each year approximately 30,000 properties are added to the National Register as part of districts or by individual Listings. …

Aviation biofuel is a biofuel used for aircraft. Aviation's share of the greenhouse gas emissions is poised to grow, as air travel increases and ground vehicles use more alternative fuels like ethanol and biodiesel. Boeing estimates that biofuels could reduce flight-related greenhouse-gas emissions by 60 to 80 percent. The solution would be blending algae fuels with existing jet fuel. Boeing executives said the company is informally collaborating with leading Brazilian biofuels maker Tecbio, Aquaflow Bionomic of New Zealand and other fuel developers around the world. So far, Boeing has tested six fuels from these companies, and will probably have gone through 20 fuels 'by the time we're done evaluating them.' Boeing is joining other aviation-related members in the Algal Biomass Organization (ABO).…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A responsabilidade civil da empresa destaca os princípios civis da responsabilidade por ato de outrem aplicáveis a essa entidade singular que é a empresa, um dos principais agentes económicos das nossas sociedades. Tradicionalmente, implica a prova de um facto lesivo, de um prejuízo e de um nexo de causalidade. O seu interesse prático reside na análise da responsabilidade das sociedades-mãe pelos atos das suas filiais, embora a não reconhecimento do 'grupo de sociedades' como conceito jurídico de pleno direito perturbe significativamente o âmbito de aplicação das regras clássicas de responsabilidade civil elaboradas para as pessoas singulares.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Sabemos que comemos para viver, mas para que vivemos Essa é a questão. Este livro é um estudo sobre a natureza do ser humano a partir das perspetivas filosófica e teológica. Analisa o ser humano sob as perspetivas social, moral e religiosa; o bem e o mal que a religião costuma infligir à humanidade, o fenómeno da morte, visto das perspetivas filosófica e religiosa; o que se segue à morte segundo os filósofos e as religiões do mundo, a situação difícil do ser humano que vive na Terra sem saber por que está aqui, o propósito da sua vida, para onde vai ou o que lhe acontecerá quando morrer, como um viajante que não sabe por que está a viajar, de onde vem, para onde vai ou o que lhe acontecerá quando chegar lá. O livro avalia algumas soluções sugeridas, cada uma apresentada como uma saída para essa situação difícil, e conclui que, uma vez que não fomos nós que nos trouxemos a este mundo, a única forma de saber por que estamos aqui, o significado e o propósito últimos das nossas vidas na Terra, é recorrer ao próprio Criador que nos trouxe a este mundo e dialogar com Ele; Ele dir-nos-á. Isto, na essência, é religião; é o diálogo com Deus.…
