Therefore, it has become imperative to search for Li from other sources. Li in coal is thought to be one of the candidates. In this study, the petrology, mineralogy, and geochemistry of No. 21 coal from the Hebi No. 6 mine, Anhe Coalfield, China, was reported, with an emphasis on the distribution, modes of occurrence, and origin of Li. The results show that Li is enriched in the No. 21 coal, and its concentration coefficient (CC) value is 6.6 on average in comparison with common world coals. -

The Globalization of K-Pop: the Interplay of External and Internal Forces
THE GLOBALIZATION OF K-POP: THE INTERPLAY OF EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FORCES Master Thesis presented by Hiu Yan Kong Furtwangen University MBA WS14/16 Matriculation Number 249536 May, 2016 Sworn Statement I hereby solemnly declare on my oath that the work presented has been carried out by me alone without any form of illicit assistance. All sources used have been fully quoted. (Signature, Date) Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic analysis about the growing popularity of Korean pop music (K-pop) worldwide in recent years. On one hand, the international expansion of K-pop can be understood as a result of the strategic planning and business execution that are created and carried out by the entertainment agencies. On the other hand, external circumstances such as the rise of social media also create a wide array of opportunities for K-pop to broaden its global appeal. The research explores the ways how the interplay between external circumstances and organizational strategies has jointly contributed to the global circulation of K-pop. The research starts with providing a general descriptive overview of K-pop. Following that, quantitative methods are applied to measure and assess the international recognition and global spread of K-pop. Next, a systematic approach is used to identify and analyze factors and forces that have important influences and implications on K-pop’s globalization. The analysis is carried out based on three levels of business environment which are macro, operating, and internal level. PEST analysis is applied to identify critical macro-environmental factors including political, economic, socio-cultural, and technological. -

High-resolution sedimentary records can help us to assess how erosion and weathering have evolved in response to recent climatic and anthropogenic disturbances. Here we present data from a high- resolution (∼75 cm/k.y.) sedimentary archive from the South China Sea. Provenance data indicate that the sediment was derived from the Red River, and can be used to reconstruct the erosion and/or weathering history in this river basin. -

Über uns 1 May 27, 2020 Compact Version Download the Extended Version (350 Pages) at www.ingoldwetrust.report The Dawning of a Golden Decade Ronald-Peter Stöferle & Mark J. Valek Introduction 2 We would like to express our profound gratitude to our Premium Partners for supporting the In Gold We Trust report 2020 Details about our Premium Partners can be found on page 91 and page 92. LinkedIn | twitter | #IGWTreport Introduction 3 Introduction “All roads lead to gold.” Kiril Sokoloff Key Takeaways • Monetary policy normalization has failed We had formulated the failure of monetary policy normalization as the most likely scenario in our four-year forecast in the In Gold We Trust report 2017. Our gold price target of > USD 1,800 for January 2021 for this scenario is within reach. • The coronavirus is the accelerant of the overdue recession The debt-driven expansion in the US has been cooling off since the end of 2018. Measured in gold, the US equity market reached its peak more than 18 months ago. The coronavirus and the reactions to it act as a massive accelerant. • Debt-bearing capacity is reaching its limits The interventions resulting from the pandemic risk are overstretching the debt sustainability of many countries. Government bonds will increasingly be called into question as a safe haven. Gold could take on this role. • Central banks are in a quandary when it comes to combating inflation in the future Due to overindebtedness, it will not be possible to combat nascent inflation risks with substantial interest rate increases. In the medium-term inflationary environment, silver and mining stocks will also be successful alongside gold. -

" Gnostics " That the Greek Language Has
THE SEVEN THUNDERS. § XXIII. THE UPANISHADS IN GNOSTIC LITERATURE. We are reminded in King's "Gnostics " that the Greek language has but one word for vowel and voice ; and this has led the uninitiated to many erroneous interpretations. On the simple knowledge, how ever, of that well-known fact a comparison may be attempted, and a flood of light thrown upon several mystic meanings. Thus the words, so often used in the Upanishads and the Puranas, " Sound " and "Speech," may be collated with the Gnostic "Vowels " and the " Voices " of the Thunders and Angels in " Revelation." The same will be found in Pistis Sophia, and other ancient Fragments and MSS. This was remarked even by the matter-of-fact author of "The Gnostics and their Remains." Through Hippolytus, an early Church Father, we learn what Marcus -a Pythagorean rather than a Christian Gnostic, and a Kabalist most certainly-had received in mystic revelation. It is said that "Marcus had it revealed unto him that ' the seven heavens ' ':' ....sounded each one vowel, which, all combined together, formed a complete doxology " ; in clearer words : "the Sotmd whereof being carried down (from these seven heavens) to earth, became the creator and parent of all things that be on earth." (See "Hippolytus," vi., 48, and King's Gnostics, p. 200. ) Translated from the Occult phraseology into still plainer language this would read : "The Sevenfold Locos having differentiated into seven Logoi, or creative potencies (vowels) these (the second logos, or "Sound " ) created all on Earth. Assuredly one who is acquainted with Gnostic literature can hardly help seeing in St.
