On the square seal base the grip is in the form of an imperial dragon. This „imperial seal for the control of the calendar of our glorious time“, made in 1827, was kept at the imperial court in Huế until 1945 when it was transferred after the revolution to the National Museum of Vietnamese History in Hanoi.

Our countries are linked together by a cultural accord signed over 25 years ago and by a Strategic Partnership established in 2011. The good relations bet- ween Germany and Vietnam are also supported by the many interwoven biographies and the intensive cooperation in the cultural and educational sphere.

Today is truly a cause for celebration, as our students present the results of the great work they’ve been engaged in during the past year. Students representing all four class years and from across the disciplines are demonstrating today what’s best about the Gettysburg College experience— intentional collaborations between students and their mentors such that students acquire both knowledge and skills that can be applied to many facets of their future personal and professional lives. The benefits for those who mentor these young adults may, at first, be more difficult to discern. Most of those who engage in mentoring do it because they enjoy being around students who are eager to learn what they have to teach them.

Publications that could not be considered here, for reasons of space, will be presented in EBGR 2012. They include two of the most important books of 2011: N. PAPAZARKADAS’ Sacred and Public Land in Ancient Athens, Oxford 2011 and H.S. VERSNEL’s Coping with the Gods: Wayward Readings in Greek Theology, Leiden 2011. 2 A series of new important corpora is included in this issue. Two new IG volumes present the inscriptions of Eastern Lokris (119) and the first part of the inscriptions of Kos (21); the latter corpus is of great significance for the study of Greek religion, as it contains a large number of cult regulations; among the new texts, we single out the ‘sacred law of the tribe of the Elpanoridai’ in Halasarna.

  • Digest #: Title
    #9052 TTHHEE LLIIVVIINNGG SSAANNDDSS AMBROSE VIDEO PUBLISHING 2000 Grade Levels: 9-13+ 52 minutes DESCRIPTION Focuses on animal life in four extremely inhospitable deserts: the Namib's adaptive elephant, a dromedary roundup in Australia's outback, fish in thermal lakes in Mexico's Chihuahua desert, and the Sahara's Ennedi crocodiles. Survival is an eternal challenge to any life in these places. ACADEMIC STANDARDS Subject Area: Science: Life Sciences • Standard: Understands relationships among organisms and their physical environment Benchmark: Knows how the interrelationships and interdependencies among organisms generate stable ecosystems that fluctuate around a state of rough equilibrium for hundreds or thousands of years (e.g., growth of a population is held in check by environmental factors such as depletion of food or nesting sites, increased loss due to larger numbers of predators or parasites) • Standard: Understands biological evolution and the diversity of life Benchmark: Understands the concept of natural selection (e.g., when an environment changes, some inherited characteristics become more or less advantageous or neutral, and chance alone can result in characteristics having no survival or reproductive value; this process results in organisms that are well suited for survival in particular environments) INSTRUCTIONAL GOALS 1. To list physical features and capabilities of the desert elephant, gemsbok, warthog, ostrich, dromedary, pupfish, and crocodile. 2. To research how these animals survive in their environment. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Evolutionary Adaptations Desert Elephant of the Namib Desert (Namibia): • “Snowshoe feet” provide a soft wide track on sand. • It survives days without water while the elephants of the savanna of East Africa drink 40 to 50 gallons a day.
