El Corazon de Cuba Educational Program Curriculum Small group, multidiscipline, educational program. The objective of the program is to strengthen your knowledge to better enable you to participate in important public policy discussion on a wide range of topics that affect your life. The program provides and opportunities to comparing and contrasting the work environment, quality of life, social programs, political structure and policies, economic policy and structure, environment, and culture that you are familiar with, to those of Cuba. Day-to-day, on an ongoing basis throughout the program there will be opportunities to meet people, small group discussion with Cubans and excursions and presentations on history, architecture, culture, ethnic diversity, social systems, gender rights and roles, politics, agriculture, mining, industry, fisheries, music, language, religion, geology, botany, and ecology. The following curriculum fails to include literally hundreds of serendipitous people-to-people encounters when we purposefully visit small towns and villages to by snacks and refreshment to talk to people, and ask questions and strike up conversations. Ironically, some of the most meaningful and enlightening people-to-people contacts are the hardest, and virtually impossible, to document. Day 1: “Anatomy of the capital of the Capital: Introducing information on the history and change of Havana, and specifically Vedado ”: architecture (residential and commercial), use patterns (park boulevard, parks, residential and commercial), public institutions (schools, hospitals (8, including cardio and oncology)), religious institutions (churches, convents and two synagogue), monuments and statues (John Lennon, socialist world leaders, military, politician, intellectuals, Jose Marti) and transportation.

  • 11701-19-A0558 RVH Landmarke 4 Engl
    Landmark 4 Brocken ® On the 17th of November, 2015, during the 38th UNESCO General Assembly, the 195 member states of the United Nations resolved to introduce a new title. As a result, Geoparks can be distinguished as UNESCO Global Geoparks. As early as 2004, 25 European and Chinese Geoparks had founded the Global Geoparks Network (GGN). In autumn of that year Geopark Harz · Braunschweiger Land · Ostfalen became part of the network. In addition, there are various regional networks, among them the European Geoparks Network (EGN). These coordinate international cooperation. 22 Königslutter 28 ® 1 cm = 26 km 20 Oschersleben 27 18 14 Goslar Halberstadt 3 2 1 8 Quedlinburg 4 OsterodeOsterodee a.H.a.Ha H.. 9 11 5 13 15 161 6 10 17 19 7 Sangerhausen Nordhausen 12 21 In the above overview map you can see the locations of all UNESCO Global Geoparks in Europe, including UNESCO Global Geopark Harz · Braunschweiger Land · Ostfalen and the borders of its parts. UNESCO-Geoparks are clearly defi ned, unique areas, in which geosites and landscapes of international geological importance are found. The purpose of every UNESCO-Geopark is to protect the geological heritage and to promote environmental education and sustainable regional development. Actions which can infl ict considerable damage on geosites are forbidden by law. A Highlight of a Harz Visit 1 The Brocken A walk up the Brocken can begin at many of the Landmark’s Geopoints, or one can take the Brockenbahn from Wernigerode or Drei Annen-Hohne via Schierke up to the highest mountain of the Geopark (1,141 meters a.s.l.).

  • Rund Um Das Große Torfhausmoor
    UNESCO-Welterbestätte „Erzbergwerk Rammelsberg, Altstadt Goslar, Oberharzer Wasserwirtschaft“. Zwischen 1536 und 1866 wurde von Harzer Bergleuten ein umfangreiches System von Gräben und Teichen zum Antrieb der „Künste“ des Bergbaus angelegt. So wichtig der Abbegraben für den Bergbau war, so nachteilig ist er für die Moore. Zu seiner Versorgung gibt es zahlreiche Stichgräben, die die oberhalb gelegenen Flächen des Magdbettmoores entwässern. Daher hat der Nationalpark viele dieser Gräben wieder verschlossen. Kaiserweg Wir folgen dem Goetheweg bis zur Kreuzung mit dem Kaiserweg. Der Goetheweg verläuft rechts weiter in Richtung Brocken. Unsere Wanderung führt uns jedoch nach links – wir folgen nun dem Kaiserweg (Wanderweg 35 E). Dieser frühzeitliche Handelsweg überquert den Harz von Harzburg und Königskrug nach Nordhausen. Moorfichtenwald Bald erreichen wir eine Brücke und überqueren den Bergbach Abbe. Schauen wir nach links in Richtung Großes Torfhausmoor, so blicken wir auf einen Moorfichtenwald. Diese natürliche Waldgesellschaft wächst in einer „Kampfzone“ des Waldes und bildet sich an den Rändern der Moore aus. An der nächsten Kreuzung verlassen wir den Kaiserweg und laufen links und dann wieder links in Richtung Torfhaus (Skihütten). An diesem Weg treffen wir auf den WaldWandelWeg. Auf einem kurzen Abstecher können wir hier den Wald in seiner Eigendynamik beobachten. Alter Torfstich Kurz vor dem Ende unserer Wanderung passieren wir linkerhand einen alten Torfstich.

  • Discrete Element Modelling of Pit Crater Formation on Mars
    geosciences Article Discrete Element Modelling of Pit Crater Formation on Mars Stuart Hardy 1,2 1 ICREA (Institució Catalana de Recerca i Estudis Avançats), Passeig Lluís Companys 23, 08010 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected]; Tel.: +34-934-02-13-76 2 Departament de Dinàmica de la Terra i de l’Oceà, Facultat de Ciències de la Terra, Universitat de Barcelona, C/Martí i Franqués s/n, 08028 Barcelona, Spain Abstract: Pit craters are now recognised as being an important part of the surface morphology and structure of many planetary bodies, and are particularly remarkable on Mars. They are thought to arise from the drainage or collapse of a relatively weak surficial material into an open (or widening) void in a much stronger material below. These craters have a very distinctive expression, often presenting funnel-, cone-, or bowl-shaped geometries. Analogue models of pit crater formation produce pits that typically have steep, nearly conical cross sections, but only show the surface expression of their initiation and evolution. Numerical modelling studies of pit crater formation are limited and have produced some interesting, but nonetheless puzzling, results. Presented here is a high-resolution, 2D discrete element model of weak cover (regolith) collapse into either a static or a widening underlying void. Frictional and frictional-cohesive discrete elements are used to represent a range of probable cover rheologies. Under Martian gravitational conditions, frictional-cohesive and frictional materials both produce cone- and bowl-shaped pit craters. For a given cover thickness, the specific crater shape depends on the amount of underlying void space created for drainage.

  • Dr More, Having Been Accused of Irregular Practice by the College Of
    APPENDIX 1 Dr John More and the College of Physicians Dr More, having been accused of irregular practice by the College of Physicians (CPh) in 1612, was the next year charged with an offence against good taste in criticising the practice of Dr Francis Herring, a fellow of the College (FCP), and Archbishop Abbot took the opportunity to ban More from practising. The College was short of funds, however, and in 1617 the considerable sum of £20, a 'voluntary deposit' from More, induced the President, Henry Atkins, to propose conditional acceptance 'until either the King or [Privy] Councillors prohibit it'. This met with substantial resistance - More's formal admission was turned down by the Fellowship on a 15/5 vote. Even so, when Dr Arthur Dee, son of the celebrated Dr John Dee and a physician to Queen Anne, was asked by the CPh by what authority he presumed to practise, Dee replied in exasperation that 'medicine was his profession and that as he could make a business out of it, he ought to follow it', and cited More and Thomas Turner as examples of irregulars whose activities were being condoned by the College. i More continued to press the £20 offer - substantial compared to fees being paid at the time - ii and Atkins pointed out that, despite the embarrassment of Abbot's ban, his licensing 'would be pleasing to important men'. After further wrangling, in March 1619 the Fellows narrowly voted him in, and William Munk lists him as a licentiate of the College. iii Even so, 'the Registrar was careful to inscribe in full his letter averring the money to be a free gift, and More himself “ever...a servante” of the College'.

    Recorrido 1 La Habana Vieja, las plazas históricas www.recorridosporlahabana.com y sus entornos (zona central y norte) 1 Recorrido No. 1: La Habana Vieja, las plazas históricas y sus entornos (zona central y norte) Hora de inicio sugerida: 9:00 a.m. Hora aproximada de fin del recorrido: 6:00 p.m. Como la inmensa mayoría de los visitantes acceden a La Habana Vieja desde el Paseo del Prado (Paseo de José Martí), y muy puntualmente desde el Parque Central, de manera práctica hemos tomado al Prado como punto de partida. Capitolio Nacional (1) – Prado entre San José y Dragones. Iniciamos el recorrido en este monumental edificio ubicado en la acera del Paseo del Prado perteneciente a Centro Habana. De fachada neoclásica, fue construido entre 1926 y 1929 para acoger al Congreso de la República. Una imponente escalinata de 55 peldaños, flanqueada por dos estatuas de bronce, el Trabajo y la Virtud Tutelar, obras del italiano Angelo Zanelli, conduce al pórtico de ingreso. En el interior bajo el domo, del mismo autor, se halla La República, que en su momento fue la segunda estatua bajo techo más grande del mundo. Custodiado por La República, un diamante empotrado en el piso de mármol marca el kilómetro cero de la carretera central. No se debe dejar de conocer el majestuoso Salón de los Pasos Perdidos (50 metros de largo, 14,5 de ancho y 20 de puntal). En la acera opuesta, a escasos metros de un extremo del Capitolio, se encuentra el Parque Central (2) – calles Prado, Zulueta, Neptuno y San José, considerado como la principal “puerta de entrada” a La Habana Vieja.
