TRANSACTIONS OP THK NORFOLK A NORWICH NATURALISTS’ SOCIETY. — The Norfolk and Norwich Naturalists’ Society has for its objects; 1. The Practical Study of Natural Science. 2. The protection, by its influence with landowners and others, of indigenous species requiring protection, and the circulation of information which may dispel prejudices leading to their destruction. 3. The discouragement of the practice of destroying the rarer species of birds that occasionally visit the County, and of exterminating rare plants in their native localities. 4. The record of facts and traditions connected with the habits, distribution, and former abundance or otherwise of animals and plants which have become extinct in the County; and the use of all legitimate means to prevent the extermination of existing species, more especially those known to be diminishing in numbers. 5. The publication of Papers on Natural History, contributed to the Society, especially such as relate to the County of Norfolk. 6. The facilitating a friendly intercourse between local Naturalists, by means of Meetings for the reading and discussion of papers and for the exhibition of specimens, supplemented by Field-meetings and Excursions, with a view to extend the study of Natural Science on a sound and systematic basis. : TRANSACTIONS OF THK Barfolli and Harwich Presented to the Members for - 1903 1904 .

ZooKeys 604: 13–30. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.604.8976 Abstract The Atlantidae (shelled heteropods) is a family of microscopic aragonite shelled holoplanktonic gastro- pods with a wide biogeographical distribution in tropical, sub-tropical and temperate waters. The arago- nite shell and surface ocean habitat of the atlantids makes them particularly susceptible to ocean acidifica- tion and ocean warming, and atlantids are likely to be useful indicators of these changes. However, we still lack fundamental information on their taxonomy and biogeography, which is essential for monitoring the effects of a changing ocean.

  • Lady Alice Le Strange 1585
    Lady Alice Le Strange 1586-1656 Lady Alice Le Strange was the wife of Sir Hamon Le Strange of Hunstanton, a Stuart landowner, whose estates were spread across North-West Norfolk and beyond. As well as being a member of the local gentry, Sir Hamon, whose family had held the manor of Hunstanton since the Norman conquest, was also a prominent figure in county politics. He represented the people of Norfolk as a Member of Parliament and like his father before him was Sheriff of Norfolk. Sir Hamon was an ardent supporter of the monarchy and church and openly displayed his Royalist sympathies in a county which had strong Parliamentarian leanings. The principal source of this article is the series of household accounts kept by Alice herself. No letters or personal papers have been found and it seems likely that these were deliberately destroyed, perhaps by Alice herself. But she speaks to us from these meticulously kept accounts. Those who spend some time reading these ledgers begin to feel they know Alice, her likes and dislikes, her character and even her favourite colour. Ketton Cremer calls her “… a woman of unconquerable spirit” and Alfred Kingston speaks of “…a capable woman, whose opinion of men and things, one feels, would have been worth having”. Her husband in his will in 1652 spoke of her thus: - “I thank thee [Lord]... abundantly for that comfortable union and blessed harmony which I have for many years enjoyed with that life of my life my dear wife…her ever dear esteem of my life and person and her most pious and painful care in the education of my children… and her ever incessant industry in straynes of knowledge above her sex”.

Fulton https://neuronresearch.net/vision/ Abstract: Keywords: Biological, Human, Vision, phylogeny, vitamin A, Electrolytic Theory of the Neuron, liquid crystal, Activa, anatomy, histology, cytology PROCESSES IN BIOLOGICAL VISION: including, ELECTROCHEMISTRY OF THE NEURON Introduction 1- 1 1 Introduction, Phylogeny & Generic Forms 1 “Vision is the process of discovering from images what is present in the world, and where it is” (Marr, 1985) ***When encountering a citation to a Section number in the following material, the first numeric is a chapter number. All cited chapters can be found at https://neuronresearch.net/vision/document.htm *** 1.1 Introduction While the material in this work is designed for the graduate student undertaking independent study of the vision sensory modality of the biological system, with a certain amount of mathematical sophistication on the part of the reader, the major emphasis is on specific models down to specific circuits used within the neuron. The Chapters are written to stand-alone as much as possible following the block diagram in Section 1.5. However, this requires frequent cross-references to other Chapters as the analyses proceed. The results can be followed by anyone with a college degree in Science. However, to replicate the (photon) Excitation/De-excitation Equation, a background in differential equations and integration-by-parts is required. Some background in semiconductor physics is necessary to understand how the active element within a neuron operates and the unique character of liquid-crystalline water (the backbone of the neural system). The level of sophistication in the animal vision system is quite remarkable.
