It reminds me so strongly of when, as a child, Sky Color was first introduced to modern art, and would see Sky Color colors in faces, blue in hair, multi-colored dots that looked different close up than far away, and how it all worked. I Sky Color seeing that Sky Color then, and I enjoyed the story and Sky Color in this book. I love Marisol, and love her name too. I appreciate her activism and how she cares about things. I love her Sky Color, though the cat does not have a big role. I also like Sky Color humor in the story. I am a fan of the artwork, especially how color is used, its presence and its absence, and really enjoyed the final mural. I like how the book was hand-lettered by the author, and I enjoy seeing the media used: pen, ink, watercolor, gouache, and tea, and appreciate that the materials are listed. I always like having that information when I Sky Color picture books. Kids who enjoy art and making art, and who might feel a bit different or see things differently from others in some way are likely to particularly appreciate this book. I thought this children's book was really sweet. I read it to my six-year-old last night at bedtime. We talked about the book as Sky Color flipped the pages, figuring out what the little girl was going to do. This is another great book teaching kids about using their imagination and using the natural world for creative inspiration. May 16, Taylor Kundel- Gower rated it really liked it Shelves: gorgeous.

Rather than lamenting the fact that she Sky Color have paint that is "sky color," she should be asking: what is sky color? As with its predecessors, I enjoyed reading Sky Colorboth for the engaging story and for the charming artwork. Moving on from his original "just get started" message, in The Dotand the ideas he presents about following one's own artistic vision, in IshReynolds Sky Color the importance of artistic flexibility and looking at things from a different perspective here.

We recommend it to our colleagues in China.” —Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Chinese Medicine, Beijing, China “Ted Kaptchuk’s book [has] something for practically everyone . Kaptchuk, himself an extraordinary combination of elements, is a thinker whose writing is more accessible than that of Joseph Needham or Manfred Porkert with no less scholarship. There is more here to think about, chew over, ponder or reflect upon than you are liable to find elsewhere. This may sound like a rave review: it is.” —Journal of Traditional Acupuncture “The Web That Has No Weaver is an encyclopedia of how to tell from the Eastern perspective ‘what is wrong.’” —Larry Dossey, author of Space, Time, and Medicine “Valuable as a compendium of traditional Chinese medical doctrine.” —Joseph Needham, author of Science and Civilization in China “The only approximation for authenticity is The Barefoot Doctor’s Manual, and this will take readers much further.” —The Kirkus Reviews “Kaptchuk has become a lyricist for the art of healing.

  • SEVIRI HRV Fog RGB Quick Guide
    SEVIRI HRV Fog RGB Quick Guide Aim: Distinguishing of fog/low clouds from snow-covered land in high resolution. Area and time period of its main application: Mid-latitude region, daytime during winter. Application and guidelines: The identification of foggy and low cloud-covered areas is important for traffic and aviation security. Winter fog/stratus frequently forms over snowy cloud-free surfaces in high pressure conditions. Fog/water clouds have good colour contrast against snow and snow-free land. This is a daytime RGB as it uses shortwave channels. SEVIRI HRV Fog RGB for 7 March 2014, 08:40 UTC Background The table shows which channels are used in the HRV Fog RGB and lists some of the land and cloud features which typically make a low or high contribution to the colour beams in this RGB. Snow's reflectivity is much higher in the HRV than in the NIR1.6. As water clouds reflect much of the radiation in both channels they can be used in combination to distinguish snow and water clouds. Smaller contribution to Larger contribution to Colour Channel [µm] Physically relates to the signal of the signal of Cloud phase Ice cloud Red NIR1.6 Water clouds Snow reflectivity Snow covered land Cloud optical thickness Thick clouds Green HRV Thin clouds Snow reflectivity Snow covered land Cloud optical thickness Thick clouds Blue HRV Thin clouds Snow refllectivity Snow covered land Notation: HRV: High Resolution Visible channel, NIR: near-infrared, number: central wavelength of the channel in micrometer.

  • Blue Ribbon Review (BRR) of Nuclear Weapons Policies and Procedures
    1.0 Executive Summary On 9 October 2007, the Chief of Staff of the Air Force (CSAF) appointed Major General Polly A. Peyer to chair an Air Force blue ribbon review (BRR) of nuclear weapons policies and procedures. On 19 October 2007, the Secretary of the Air Force (SECAF) announced the formation of the BRR in a press conference. The CSAF tasked the review to take an enterprise-wide look at United States Air Force (USAF) nuclear responsibilities. Specifically, the CSAF highlighted a need to examine organizational structure; command authorities and responsibilities; personnel and assignment policies; and education and training associated with the operation, maintenance, storage, handling, transportation, and security of USAF nuclear weapons systems. The chair formed a cross-command, cross-functional team of 30 Airmen with a mix of ranks, skills, and experiences from five commands, Headquarters Air Force (HAF), the Air Force Safety Center, and the United States Navy (USN). The BRR team defined the nuclear enterprise as the spectrum of nuclear weapons management responsibilities, aircraft and intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM), within the USAF. The team visited 29 locations, met with 54 organizations, and interviewed 822 people. Additionally, the team researched more than 250 books, periodicals, reports, papers, publications, and documents. The results are organized in five areas: • Leadership and Relationships • Mission Focus and Culture, History, Safety, and Surety • Training and Force Development • Transportation, Accountability, Tracking, Scheduling, and Security • Organization and Resources As the United States (US) reduced its nuclear stockpile following the end of the Cold War, emphasis on nuclear weapons declined and the forces assigned to operate, maintain, and support the nuclear capability reduced accordingly, especially in flying units.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Transactions of the Burgon Society by an authorized administrator of New Prairie Press. For more information, please contact [email protected]. BBurgon Society Annual, 2001, pp. 9–12 TOWARDS A STANDARD TERMINOLOGY FOR DESCRIBING ACADEMIC ROBES Nicholas Groves, MA, BMus, FBS, FSAScot It has been clear for many years that a standard, clear, terminology for describing academic robes is needed. Universities and colleges use very imprecise terms, and different institutions will use the same term with different meanings. A standard terminology should enable a gown or hood to be drawn accurately from its description, exactly as an heraldic blazon enables a coat-of-arms to be drawn. 1. Patterns/shapes. A start has already been made here with my classificatory system, whereby the different patterns of full, simple and Aberdeen hoods are each assigned a number, and the various shapes of robes and gowns are similarly codified (see Appendix I). There are probably a few more to be added, and some apparently differing patterns are assigned the same number – e.g. the ‘Leeds’ version of the full hood (with short cowl) is assigned the [f1] of Cambridge, as the length of the cowl is of no importance; likewise ‘London’ pattern doctors robes are listed as Cambridge [d1] as the London version is a very recent deviation.
