An invasive insect from China called the gypsy moth was transported to the United States in infested packing material in the late 1800s. It has since killed over 20 million trees across Michigan, Ohio and Indiana by completely defoliating oak and aspen trees. While small mammals and birds prey on the gypsy moth, quarantines on firewood aim to prevent further spread of this destructive invasive species to new areas.Caralde chap 2 Lab 2

The emerald ash borer, native to China, was transported to the United States in infested packing material in the late 1800s. It has since killed over 20 million ash trees across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana by tunneling under the bark and feeding on the cambium layer. While oaks and aspens are most commonly infected, the emerald ash borer also threatens ponderosa and Coulter pine trees in western states, where tree loss from infestation is considered a normal ecological process.The world as a carousel

1. The document discusses the implementation of a language carousel program for first year students (S1) at St. George's School for Girls to help empower students to make informed choices about continuing language study.
2. Through the carousel, students study 4 languages over 9 week periods to gain exposure before selecting 2 to continue in S2. The languages included are Spanish, German, Chinese, and International Education.
3. Initial feedback indicates the carousel has had a positive impact on students' perceptions of language learning and their ability to make choices about continuing study. Around 70-80% of students continue with French, in line with national trends, while 15-25% choose Chinese or German.March 11 Lab

This document discusses ideas for studying information diffusion on online social networks like Twitter. It provides background on lexical diffusion and how words can change pronunciation gradually over time. Prior research has found that high frequency words tend to change faster than low frequency words. The document also discusses how social networks can influence information spread, with central and well-connected users playing an important role. Methods are proposed for collecting Twitter data through its public API and crawling the network in a constrained way to study topics that spread through hashtags and retweets.Total War: An Unnecessary Evil?

General William T. Sherman's "Total War" campaign against the South during the U.S. Civil War involved burning cities, destroying infrastructure, and seizing or destroying Southern property and resources. This took a heavy toll on civilian populations, especially women left to care for their families. While Sherman believed this approach was necessary to break the Confederate spirit and force a surrender, Southern women like Mrs. Burgess and Mrs. Chesnut felt the suffering inflicted on innocent civilians was cruel and unnecessary. They maintained their resolve despite extreme hardship and poverty. The "Total War" strategy failed to achieve Sherman's goal of destroying morale, though it did help hasten the end of the war through economic devastation of the South.Band Interviews in Zines for Girls Rock

Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against artery walls and is measured in milligrams of mercury (mgHg). It is defined by two numbers - the systolic pressure when the heart beats and the diastolic pressure between beats. There are different categories for adult blood pressure ranging from normal to prehypertension to hypertension based on systolic and diastolic levels. Since high blood pressure often has no symptoms, it needs to be tested using a sphygmomanometer and stethoscope. Prevention tips include eating a healthy diet low in fat and high in fruits and vegetables, maintaining a healthy weight, and exercising regularly.Chap2case1

Hybrids use both a gas and electric motor where the gas motor ranges from 18 to 60 mpg in the city and 21 to 66 mpg on highways depending on the make and size, while the electric motor gives the gas engine an extra boost or may power the car entirely.

The document describes a student's learning experiences at Guevarra Institute of Technology. The student learned to control their attitude, communicate with friends and teachers, teach their younger brother, speak English and Tagalog, and manage their time to study more than play. Overall, the student felt lucky to attend Guevarra Institute of Technology where they could learn in a peaceful environment from nice teachers and students.Ad
