Birding Abroad Limited Uzbekistan 5 – 12 June 2019
BIRDING ABROAD LIMITED UZBEKISTAN 5 – 12 JUNE 2019 - TRIP REPORT To the south-west of Kazakhstan lies Uzbekistan, a Central Asian country founded during the glory days of the Great Silk Road and boasting a colourful cultural heritage. Further it enjoys a diverse range of landscapes which results in a varied birdlife, including several speciality birds not found in neighbouring countries. Foremost amongst these is the enigmatic Turkestan (Pander’s) Ground-jay, a very localised desert resident, whilst other notable species include Hume’s Lark, Azure Tit (of the yellow-breasted variety), Upcher’s and Menetries’s Warbler. Uzbekistan was once at the cross-roads of commercial developments in Central Asia, with Silk Road routes passing through the ancient cities of Tashkent, Samarkand and Bukhara. Rich in historical sites, the architectural wonders of these ancient cities remains largely intact and attracts large numbers of tourists to witness their splendours. We had set aside some time within our schedule to visit the highlights of these fabulous places. Our flight passed smoothly and after landing safely in Tashkent, we were greeted by representatives from the ground agency who kindly welcomed us to Uzbekistan. Accompanied by our bird guide Timor, we headed directly to the massive Hotel Uzbekistan in downtown Tashkent, where we managed a few hours’ sleep. Thursday 6 June – after a quick breakfast we were soon boarding a new and comfortable coach, travelling some 90 kms north-east to Beldersai, a village surrounded by rolling and wooded hills of the Chatkal Range. Our main quarry for the morning was the Rufous-naped Tit, a localised resident of coniferous and juniper forests from Central Asia to the north-west Himalaya. -

Inclusive Arts Vermont ANEW Exhibition Verbal Descriptions Long Form
Inclusive Arts Vermont ANEW Exhibition Verbal Descriptions Long Form Marguerite Adelman Seeking Peace Acrylic paint, beads, felt, and origami 16” x 20” 2018 Described By: Katie Miller This mixed media painting is 16 inches wide and 20 inches tall. It features a bright yellow sun, from which bright strokes of color radiate, and a series of paper cranes. The background of the image is made up of straight strokes of color in red, pink, orange, and varying shades of blue and violet, much like those found in a sunrise or sunset. The lines are not harsh lines and blend together in places. The lines move from cool to more warm tones as they progress outward from the sun to the edges of the painting. The strokes all radiate from a bright yellow circle surrounded by red beads, found at the bottom right corner of the painting. Attached to the canvas, progressing in a line from the sun to the middle of the left edge, is a series of 16 paper cranes. The cranes are made of various patterned papers, with no more than two being identical. They appear similar in size, no more than an inch or two in height. Willow Bascom Off the Couch! Yarn, beads, multimedia 24”x39” 2019 Described By: Scott Robbins This is a large two-dimensional scene created out primarily of woven and appliqued yarns. The scene first appears to be in an indoor setting similar to a living room, although includes elements that are typically found in the natural world. The background is fashioned from a single woven piece of light grey-brown yarn. -
Your Cruise Japanese Subtropical Islands
Japanese subtropical Islands From 24/5/2022 From Osaka Ship: LE SOLEAL to 31/5/2022 to Keelung (Chilung) PONANT is the first cruise company to take you to the heart of the sublime landscapes of the tropical islands in southern Japan during an expedition cruise. On this all-new 8-day itinerary aboard Le Soléal, from Osaka to Taiwan, you will discover the rich natural heritage of the Okinawa archipelago and the Ryukyu Islands. You will board your ship in Osaka, before setting sail south to reach this string of idyllic islands. Le Soléal will first set sail for the coral island Kikaijimaof . You will be fascinated by this enchanting island with beautiful beaches and turquoise waters. Its lush seabed and biodiversity will allow you to enjoy a captivating exploration. Your next port of call will be Zamami, in the Kerama Islands. You will enjoy the unspoiled beauty of this pristine island, known the world over for the distinctive blue of the surrounding sea, called “Kerama blue”. The sea life in the area is also exceptionally rich and sea turtles can often be spotted swimming among the coral. Le Soléal will then sail towards the magnificent Iriomote-Ishigaki National Park. Here wild beaches mix with traditional villages and lush, protected and intact, tropical forest: jungle, mangroves, rivers, waterfalls. This unique biodiversity is made up of many endemic species. The landscapes on the remote island of Yonagunijima, the easternmost of the Ryukyu Islands, offer a striking contrast: cliffs, windswept meadows, wild horses. The beauty of its sea-beds and their mysterious rocky formations will delight the most experienced divers. -
Early and Pre-Clinical Detection of Prion Seeding Activity In
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Early and Pre-Clinical Detection of Prion Seeding Activity in Cerebrospinal Fluid of Goats Received: 24 October 2018 Accepted: 27 March 2019 using Real-Time Quaking-Induced Published: xx xx xxxx Conversion Assay Alessandra Favole 1, Maria Mazza1, Elena Vallino Costassa1, Antonio D’Angelo2, Guerino Lombardi3, Paola Marconi4, Paola Crociara1, Elena Berrone1, Marina Gallo1, Claudia Palmitessa1, Christina D. Orrù5, Byron Caughey 5, Pier L. Acutis1, Maria Caramelli1, Cristina Casalone1 & Cristiano Corona1 Since 2005, two cases of natural bovine spongiform encephalopathies (BSE) have been reported in goats. Furthermore, experimental transmissions of classical (C-BSE) and atypical (L-BSE) forms of BSE in goats were also reported. To minimize further spreading of prion diseases in small ruminants the development of a highly sensitive and specifc test for ante-mortem detection of infected animals would be of great value. Recent studies reported high diagnostic value of a second generation of cerebrospinal fuid (CSF) Real-Time Quaking-Induced Conversion (RT-QuIC) assay across a wide spectrum of human prions. Here, we applied this improved QuIC (IQ-CSF) for highly efcient detection of TSEs prion protein in goat cerebrospinal fuid. IQ-CSF sensitivity and specifcity were evaluated on CSF samples collected at disease endpoint from goats naturally and experimentally infected with scrapie or bovine isolates of C-BSE and L-BSE, respectively. Next, CSF samples collected from L-BSE infected goats during pre-symptomatic stage were also analysed. PrPL-BSE associated seeding activity was detected at early time points after experimental inoculation, with an average time of 439 days before clinical symptoms appeared. -

I. ON BEAUTY AND BEING WRONG What is the felt experience of cognition at the moment one stands in the presence of a beautiful boy or šower or bird? It seems to in- cite, even to require, the act of replication. Wittgenstein says that when the eye sees something beautiful, the hand wants to draw it. Beauty brings copies of itself into being. It makes us draw it, take photographs of it, or describe it to other people. Sometimes it gives rise to exact replication and other times to resemblances and still other times to things whose connection to the original site of inspiration is unrecognizable. A beautiful face drawn by Verroc- chio suddenly glides into the perceptual Šeld of a young boy named Leonardo. -

On a Peculiar Discoloration of the Skin in Females
THE DUBLIN QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF MEDICAL SCIENCE. MAY 1, 1858. PART I. ORIGINAL COMMUNICATIONS. ART. IX . -- On a peculiar Discoloration .~ the ~S~kin in Females. By J. T. BANXS, M. D. T. C. D., King's Professor of Phy- sic ; Physician to the Whitworth and Hardwicke Hospitals, and to the Richmond Lunatic Asylum, &c. &c. MY attention having been for some time directed to the con- sideration of the subject of the discoloration of the skin in females, from the fact of my having hnder my care, in the Richmond Asylum, a young woman who presents this remark- able phenomenon, and being aware of the paucity of reported cases in which this strange appearance has been observed, it occurs to me that it may be of sufficient interest to place it on record, and, even if nothing more be gained, to add one more observation to those already existing in the annals of medicine. Before gi.ving an account of my own case, I propose to lay before the reader a brief historical sketch of the observations previously published, and, subsequently reviewing all that has been noticed in connexion with the phenomenon, we shall be in a position to show a certain amount of resemblance, at least so far as some associated symptoms are concerned. The nineteenth volume of this periodical contains a me- moir on " A peculiar black Discoloration of the Skin of the VOL. XXV. NO. ~o, N.s. S 258 Da. BA~s on a peculiar Discoloration Face," by the learned Editor, from which, although familiar to many, it will be necessary for me to refer in order to ~ive a complete idea of the actual state of knowledge of the subject at present within our reach. -
Vegetable Garden: Basics and Plant Selections Site/Location Full Sun Equals 6 to 8 Hours of Sun Per Day
Vegetable Garden: Basics and Plant Selections Site/Location Full sun equals 6 to 8 hours of sun per day. Close enough that you will want to go it. Water/hose will reach it. Start small, 10’ by 10’ will provide vegetables while still being manageable to weed, water, plant and harvest. What to grow Vegetables that you like and will eat and that are suited to the location. The recommended plants are suggestions only. Visit our fact sheet Seed Companies for more ideas. Soil A soil test from the UConn Soil and Nutrient Analysis Laboratory is recommended. Add amendments as recommended. Compost or aged manure worked well into soil. Plotting area, single rows, wide rows or blocks. They all work. Tall crops on the north. Track shadows so all plants get sun. Timing Plants that reach harvest in under 120 days are considered short season crops and those that take longer are long season crops. Subtract the days to harvest (on seed packets) from the first fall frost date to find the last planting date. • Last spring frost date in CT is May 15th. • First fall frost date in CT is Sept. 15th. Cool Season Crops Seed packet will say “Plant as early as soil can be worked”. A good test to tell if the soil is workable is to make a ball of soil in your hand and poke it with a finger, if it falls apart like chocolate cake crumbles, it is ready. If the soil is too wet, the ball stays together leaving only an indent from finger.
