The Romans in Worcester a Town and Its Hinterland Education Pack
The Romans in Worcester A Town and its Hinterland Education Pack Education Pack Welcome The Romans in Worcester resource is intended to align with the national curriculum in England, with the focus on Worcester and its hinterland bringing the wider understanding of Roman Britain closer to home. The resource book provides information for teachers of Key Stage 2 learners, along with accompanying PowerPoint presentations, suggested activities and other resources. There is an accompanying loan box incorporating replica items as well as archaeological finds from the Mab’s Orchard excavation at Warndon, Worcester. The book is laid out with information for teachers shown alongside the relevant PowerPoint slides, to help you explore a variety of themes with your learners. At the start of each chapter and before each activity, we provide a listing of relevant points in the Key Stage 2 programme of study. The understanding of historical concepts, such as continuity and change, cause and consequence, similarity and difference, is a key aim within the national curriculum for history, while the Roman Empire and its impact on Britain (including ‘Romanisation’ of Britain: sites such as Caerwent and the impact of technology, culture and beliefs, including early Christianity) is a required part of the Key Stage 2 curriculum. Therefore we have highlighted key changes and new introductions that took place in the Roman period by marking the text in bold. We hope that you will find this a useful and inspiring resource for bringing archaeology and the Romans into your classroom.

Effectiveness of Essential Oils from Citrus Sinensis and Calendula Officinalis and Organic
Cantaurus, Vol. 28, 20-24, May 2020 © McPherson College Department of Natural Science Effectiveness of essential oils from Citrus sinensis and Calendula officinalis and organic extract from fruits of Maclura pomifera as repellants against the wolf spider Rabidosa punctulata Garrett Owen ABSTRACT The essential oils (EO’s) of Citrus sinensis, Calendual officinalis, and Maclura pomifera were extracted via either steam distillation or organic extraction and tested for their repellency effect on the wolf spider, Rabidosa punculata. Essential oil repellency was tested in a Y-maze fumigation test and a filter paper contact test. The data collected was subjected to statistical analysis; the results from the binomial test of the fumigation trials data suggest no significant repellant activity of the fumes of any of the EO’s extracted. Although, Citrus sinensis EO’s presented hope for further studies. Results from the Wilcoxon rank sum test of the contact trials data showed Calendula officinalis as an effective deterrent against Rabidosa punctulata while the other two EO’s showed no significant effects. The isolated EOs from each plant were analyzed using GC/MS to identify the major compounds present. Results from the GC/MS showed d-Limonene to be the major component of Citrus sinensis at 92.56% while major components of Maclura pomifera were (1S)-2,6,6-Trimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]hept-2-ene at 18.96%, 3-Carene at 17.05%, Cedrol at 16.81%, and a-Terpinyl acetate at 5.52%. It was concluded that d- Limonene is a common ingredient in many insect repellants, but exists as a component of a mixture of several chemicals. -

Even during the war years, as well as through the Great Depres sion, each fall Horned Frog football squads have done bat tle on the gridiron each fall. 4BEGINNINGS The newfangled game of foot ball, created in the East, made a quiet and un offcial ap pear ance on the TCU campus (AddRan College as it was then known and lo cat ed in Waco, Tex as, or nearby Thorp Spring) in the fall of 1896. It was then that sev er al of the col lege’s more ro bust stu dents, along with the en thu si as tic sup port of a cou ple of young “profs,” Addison Clark, Jr., and A.C.

The first con test was an 86 vic to ry over Toby’s Busi ness College of Waco and the other two games were with the Houston Heavy weights, a town team.

The only loss was to the Univer si ty of Tex as, 1810. -

A VINDOLANDA JOURNEY by Deb Bennett, Ph.D
A VINDOLANDA JOURNEY by Deb Bennett, Ph.D. In the Wild Uplands of Northumbria: Once every year since 2002, I have spent a month at Vindolanda, also known as Chesterholm Museum, a wonderfrul historical park in the wilds of northern England. For Americans, describing anything English as “wild” may sound a bit extreme: we think of England as a center of civilization, culture, and urbanity -- not a place to go camping and hiking with scenery such as you might find on the Appalachian Trail or in Yosemite Park. But England is not all London, not all Oxford or Cambridge. The northern part of the country, where it borders on Scotland, was historically known as “the borderlands” -- for centuries a dangerous, politi- cally-contested no-man’s-land laid out on steep scarps, cloven valleys, and high uplands where the only cattle are woolly sheep and the wind whips a wary lookout’s hair. This is a country for pheasant and deer, with beautiful fall colors and fast-running “burns” where trout and salmon leap. The glass-clear tarns and lochs of the Lake District, nearby to the northwest, are part of Britain’s national park system and feature mountain views and world-class fly fishing. Vindolanda sits atop a flat hill within a steep- sided valley. The long stone wall is the actual fort; ruins in the fore- ground are of the village and temple complexes. Visiting Vindolanda is easy: just go to www.vindolanda.com for details. Here almost 2,000 years ago, Roman armies built forts, and later a massive wall, to divide the civilized South from the wild North. -

Wildlife Strikes to Civil Aircraft in the United States, 1990-2020
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE U.S. DEPARTMENT WILDLIFE SERVICES OF TRANSPORTATION FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION Smithsonian Feather Lab identifies Cerulean Warbler struck by aircraft on April 28, 2020 as the 600th species of bird in the National Wildlife Strike Database The U.S. Departments of Transportation and Agriculture prohibit discrimination in all their programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender, religion, age, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, or marital or family status (not all prohibited bases apply to all programs). Persons with disabilities who require alternative means for communication of program information (Braille, large print, audiotape, etc.) should contact the appropriate agency. The Federal Aviation Administration produced this report in cooperation with the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Wildlife Services, under an interagency agreement (692M15- 19-T-00017). The purpose of this agreement is to 1) document wildlife strikes to civil aviation through management of the FAA National Wildlife Strike Database and 2) research, evaluate, and communicate the effectiveness of various habitat management and wildlife control techniques for minimizing wildlife strikes with aircraft at and away from airports. These activities provide a scientific basis for FAA policies, regulatory decisions, and recommendations regarding airport safety and wildlife. Authors Richard A.
