Cougar Stalks Deer predators were aroundi" Science has produced an abundance of evidence that predation on prey, such as rabbits and deer, actually benefits the prey species as a whole by 1) keeping populations at a sustainable level for the amount of vegetative food and other resources in an area, and 2) improving the gene pool over time by preying on the weakest, and therefore ensuring chat the most 6t and survival-strong genes get passed on. Predation makes both predator and prey species stronger.

A Cougar stalks slowly, moving low to the ground, making almost no noise as its hind foot lands exactly where its front foot had been. After a stalking Cougar gets close behind a Deer, they powerfully lunge onto the deer's back, biting into the neck. I bet you didn't know this: Cougars actually have nerve endings on the rips oftheir big canine teeth so that they can feel exactly where to put their teeth and bite, immediately severing the spine and killing the Deer quickly and painlessly. The only protection a Deer has from a stalking Cougar is its sensory awareness. If it hears something and turns to see the Cougar moving, the Deer can bound offeasily to safety and the hunt ends. However, deer hai'e Animal Form Games | ;ll limited vision and can only clearry recognize moving animals. This means, Referee.

You or another instructor will need to serve as referee to help the game run smoothly arrd fairly, i.e., to make a call on any arguments abour people being seen or not seen moving, which of course will arise. Inside tbe Mind of the Mentor This game is awesome for learning stalking and body control because par- ticipants practice and test out their Cougar-Crawl or Fox-Walk. They will be challenged to always be physically centered, under control oftheir bodp and able to freeze and hold a position, no matter what part of a step they are on. Along the way to gaining this self-control in movement, partici- pants get frozen in many humorous awkward positions, as well as shaking legs and funny falls. Also, this game emphasizes the use of the ears and eyes to catch move- ment, both on the part of the ever-watching Cougars ready to {reeze and on the part of the Deer listening and looking for any movements. You can invite them to try Owl Eyes during this game. Altern atiu es and Exten sion s Change the Animals. If you don't have Cougars at all near where you live, or if you just want to change things, try changing this game into "Bobcat Stalks Rabbit," or "Housecat Stalks Robin." The Smell Factor. Ask Cougars to arrange themselves so the Cougars always stalk from downwind. Guide them with questions to help them 69- ure, in real time, the direction of the breeze, and where "downwind" would be. This awareness of their relationship to the wind gets participants tuning into their sense oftouch regularly. Make it Real. Challenge participants to touch an animal by using the stalking style of this game to sneak up on real animals whenever they have the chancer deer, robins feeding on the lawn, squirrel, even their own cat or dog. l ! f t Animal Form Games | 393.

  • Heraldic Terms
    HERALDIC TERMS The following terms, and their definitions, are used in heraldry. Some terms and practices were used in period real-world heraldry only. Some terms and practices are used in modern real-world heraldry only. Other terms and practices are used in SCA heraldry only. Most are used in both real-world and SCA heraldry. All are presented here as an aid to heraldic research and education. A LA CUISSE, A LA QUISE - at the thigh ABAISED, ABAISSÉ, ABASED - a charge or element depicted lower than its normal position ABATEMENTS - marks of disgrace placed on the shield of an offender of the law. There are extreme few records of such being employed, and then only noted in rolls. (As who would display their device if it had an abatement on it?) ABISME - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ABOUTÉ - end to end ABOVE - an ambiguous term which should be avoided in blazon. Generally, two charges one of which is above the other on the field can be blazoned better as "in pale an X and a Y" or "an A and in chief a B". See atop, ensigned. ABYSS - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ACCOLLÉ - (1) two shields side-by-side, sometimes united by their bottom tips overlapping or being connected to each other by their sides; (2) an animal with a crown, collar or other item around its neck; (3) keys, weapons or other implements placed saltirewise behind the shield in a heraldic display.

  • Robert Graves the White Goddess
    ROBERT GRAVES THE WHITE GODDESS IN DEDICATION All saints revile her, and all sober men Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean— In scorn of which I sailed to find her In distant regions likeliest to hold her Whom I desired above all things to know, Sister of the mirage and echo. It was a virtue not to stay, To go my headstrong and heroic way Seeking her out at the volcano's head, Among pack ice, or where the track had faded Beyond the cavern of the seven sleepers: Whose broad high brow was white as any leper's, Whose eyes were blue, with rowan-berry lips, With hair curled honey-coloured to white hips. Green sap of Spring in the young wood a-stir Will celebrate the Mountain Mother, And every song-bird shout awhile for her; But I am gifted, even in November Rawest of seasons, with so huge a sense Of her nakedly worn magnificence I forget cruelty and past betrayal, Careless of where the next bright bolt may fall. FOREWORD am grateful to Philip and Sally Graves, Christopher Hawkes, John Knittel, Valentin Iremonger, Max Mallowan, E. M. Parr, Joshua IPodro, Lynette Roberts, Martin Seymour-Smith, John Heath-Stubbs and numerous correspondents, who have supplied me with source- material for this book: and to Kenneth Gay who has helped me to arrange it. Yet since the first edition appeared in 1946, no expert in ancient Irish or Welsh has offered me the least help in refining my argument, or pointed out any of the errors which are bound to have crept into the text, or even acknowledged my letters.

  • KEY to the FRESHWATER FISHES of MARYLAND Updated
    KEY TO THE FRESHWATER FISHES OF MARYLAND Updated December 2009 KEY TO THE FRESHWATER FISHES OF MARYLAND Compiled by P.F. Kazyak; R.L. Raesly Graphics by D.A. Neely This key to the freshwater fishes of Maryland was prepared for the Maryland Biological Stream Survey to support field and laboratory identifications of fishes known to occur or potentially occurring in Maryland waters. A number of existing taxonomic keys were used to prepare the initial version of this key to provide a more complete set of identifiable features for each species and minimize the possibility of incorrectly identifying new or newly introduced species. Since that time, we have attempted to remove less useful information from the key and have enriched the key by adding illustrations. Users of this key should be aware of the possibility of taking a fish species not listed, especially in areas near the head-of- tide. Glossary of anatomical terms Ammocoete - Larval lamprey. Lateral field - Area of scales between anterior and posterior fields. Basal - Toward the base or body of an object. Mandible - Lower jaw. Branchial groove - Horizontal groove along which the gill openings are aligned in lampreys. Mandibular pores - Series of pores on the ventral surface of mandible. Branchiostegal membranes - Membranes extending below the opercles and connecting at the throat. Maxillary - Upper jaw. Branchiostegal ray - Splint-like bone in the branchiostegal Myomeres - Dorsoventrally oriented muscle bundle on side of fish. membranes. Myoseptum - Juncture between myomeres. Caudal peduncle - Slender part of body between anal and caudal fin. Palatine teeth - Small teeth just posterior or lateral to the medial vomer.

EVE BTBATSFORD, 94 HIGH HOLBORN LONDON I907 Bctlkr & Tanner, The Selwood Printing ^Vobks, Frome, and London. 1GC0718 P r e fa c e THE intention of this book is to assist the workers in the many arts that are concerned with heraldry, in varying degrees, by putting before them as simply as possible the essential principles of heraldic art. In this way it is hoped to contribute to the improve- ment in the treatment of heraldry that is already evident, as a result of the renewed recognition of its ornamental and historic importance, but which still leaves so much to be desired. It is hoped that not only artists but also those who are, or may become, interested in this attractive subject in other ways, will find herein some helpful information and direction. So that the work of the artist and the judgment and appreciation of the public may alike be furthered by a knowledge of the factors that go to make up heraldic design and of the technique of various methods of carrying it into execution. To this end the illustrations have been selected from a wide range of subjects and concise descriptions of the various processes have been included. And although the scope of the book cannot include all the methods of applying heraldry, in Bookbinding, Pottery and Tiles for example, the principles that are set forth will serve ;; VI PREFACE all designers who properly consider the capabilities and limitations of their materials.

  • Line-Of-Sight Pursuit in Monotone and Scallop Polygons
    Line-of-Sight Pursuit in Monotone and Scallop Polygons Lindsay Berry∗ Andrew Beveridge† Jane Butterfield‡ Volkan Isler§ Zachary Keller¶ Alana Shinek Junyi Wang† Abstract We study a turn-based game in a simply connected polygonal environment Q between a pursuer and an adversarial evader . Both players can move in a straight line to any point withinP unit distance during theirE turn. The pursuer wins by capturing the evader, meaning that their distance satisfies d( , ) 1, while theP evader wins by eluding capture forever. Both players have a map ofP theE environment,≤ but they have different sensing capabilities. The evader always knows the location of . Meanwhile, only has line-of-sight visibility: observesE the evader’s position onlyP when the line segmentP connecting them lies entirelyP within the polygon. Therefore must search for when the evader is hidden from view. P E We provide a winning strategy for in two families of polygons: monotone polygons and scallop polygons. In both families,P a straight line L can be moved continuously over Q so that (1) L Q is a line segment and (2) every point on the boundary ∂Q is swept exactly once. These∩ are both subfamilies of strictly sweepable polygons. The sweeping motion for a monotone polygon is a single translation, and the sweeping motion for a scallop polygon is a single rotation. Our algorithms use rook’s strategy during its pursuit phase, rather than the well-known lion’s strategy. The rook’s strategy is crucial for obtaining a capture time that is linear in the area of Q.

Some may remember the 7th IPW held here in 1989 – the organizer is a little greyer, but the enthusiasm for scallops and the out- standing venue have not waned. This Workshop follows the example of the 20th IPW that was co-hosted by two countries, Ireland and Norway. Scallops are key to the coastal economies of Canada and the United States and joint sponsorship of the IPW by the Americans and Canadi- ans was an obvious liaison. In addition to nine keynote lectures and a special ‘Industry Day’, the scientific program includes the usual assemblage of topics including fisheries, aquaculture, genetics, disease, and manage- ment. We hope that bringing some new topics and scallop enthusiasts to the meeting will en- hance your experience and perhaps bring new members to IPW extended family. There are several social events planned, including a genuine all-American baseball game and a lobster bake with traditional music. Portland is a cornucopia of good food, good music, and activ- ities – we hope you will take advantage of all it has to offer and enjoy your stay.
