The Scotts were then invited to receive gifts, tokens of their visit to the school, presented by two of the pupils. Pastor Anderson gave thanks to all who had come, together with the teachers who had done so much to make the afternoon a success. He introduced the teachers, Mrs. J. Sutton, Miss J. Davies, and in ab- sence, owing to recent surgery, Mrs. C. Blackburn—who had trained the speech choir for their rendition of Psalm 46. The official party and the parents were then invited to inspect the school. Yet another chapter of influence begins in Grantham.

  • Ceramics from Wet-Processing of Martian Soil Simulant Using Slip Casting Or Additive Manufacturing for In-Situ Resource Utilization
    DOI: 10.13009/EUCASS2019-769 Ceramics from wet-processing of Martian soil simulant using slip casting or Additive Manufacturing for in-situ resource utilization on Mars David Karl # *, Franz Kamutzki*, Andrea Zocca**, Pedro Lima**, Oliver Goerke*, Jens Guenster** and Aleksander Gurlo* * Fachgebiet Keramische Werkstoffe / Chair of Advanced Ceramic Materials, TU Berlin, Germany. ** Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und –prüfung (BAM), Berlin, Germany. # Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract For future colonization of Planet Mars, the most realistic approach for the production of parts on site is in situ resource utilization (ISRU). In this study, we demonstrate the feasibility of this concept by producing objects of varying complexity exclusively using resources that can be found on the surface of Mars. The established production routes using slip casting and Additive Manufacturing via wet- processing of Mars simulant material are simple, robust and easily transferable even to the harsh conditions on Mars. After sintering our slip cast parts have mechanical properties comparable to commercially available porcelain, making them suitable for everyday use. 1. Introduction A promising concept for the exploration and subsequent colonization of Moon and Mars is in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) - collecting, processing and storing of native materials that are encountered during human or robotic space exploration [1]. Early colonization scenarios suggest the direct use of rock-covering loose granular surface media (including dust, soil and rubble) consisting of various oxide minerals called lunar and Mars regoliths. The chemical composition of lunar and Mars regolith makes the extraction of metals and ceramics conceivable. The availability of ceramic tools is an important prerequisite for melting regolith in blast furnaces and bloomeries for the production of base metals.

  • An Access-Dictionary of Internationalist High Tech Latinate English
    An Access-Dictionary of Internationalist High Tech Latinate English Excerpted from Word Power, Public Speaking Confidence, and Dictionary-Based Learning, Copyright © 2007 by Robert Oliphant, columnist, Education News Author of The Latin-Old English Glossary in British Museum MS 3376 (Mouton, 1966) and A Piano for Mrs. Cimino (Prentice Hall, 1980) INTRODUCTION Strictly speaking, this is simply a list of technical terms: 30,680 of them presented in an alphabetical sequence of 52 professional subject fields ranging from Aeronautics to Zoology. Practically considered, though, every item on the list can be quickly accessed in the Random House Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary (RHU), updated second edition of 2007, or in its CD – ROM WordGenius® version. So what’s here is actually an in-depth learning tool for mastering the basic vocabularies of what today can fairly be called American-Pronunciation Internationalist High Tech Latinate English. Dictionary authority. This list, by virtue of its dictionary link, has far more authority than a conventional professional-subject glossary, even the one offered online by the University of Maryland Medical Center. American dictionaries, after all, have always assigned their technical terms to professional experts in specific fields, identified those experts in print, and in effect held them responsible for the accuracy and comprehensiveness of each entry. Even more important, the entries themselves offer learners a complete sketch of each target word (headword). Memorization. For professionals, memorization is a basic career requirement. Any physician will tell you how much of it is called for in medical school and how hard it is, thanks to thousands of strange, exotic shapes like <myocardium> that have to be taken apart in the mind and reassembled like pieces of an unpronounceable jigsaw puzzle.

  • PACE NSC 2013 Round 11 Tossups 1
    PACE NSC 2013 Round 11 Tossups 1. This author discussed the fate of the wreckers in a chapter entitled "The History of Our Sewage Disposal System", which follows a chapter in which jurists dump out a child's corpse in order to inspect a coffin. Late in his career, this author was lambasted for anti-Semitism for his history of the Jews in his country, Two Hundred Years Together. He wrote a novel whose title character enjoys the company of the Latvian joker Kilgas and his benevolent (*) overseer Tyurin and earns a share of the care packages of the favorably-treated Caesar. Many of his novels, including Cancer Ward, were circulated through samizdat. For 10 points, name this Russian author of One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich and The Gulag Archipelago. ANSWER: Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn <Gupta> 2. Tell el-Daba in Egypt and Tel Kabri in Israel contain wall paintings done in the style of this civilization, which produced polychrome pottery often containing floral patterns called Kamares Ware. Luigi Pernier excavated a mysterious multi-symbol disc produced by this civilization. Its cities like Kato Zakros and Phaistos may have been ravaged by the (*) Thera eruption. This civilization is generally organized chronologically into "palatial" divisions, and John Chadwick and Michael Ventris deciphered one of its major scripts. Linear A and B were used by this civilization, whose ruins were excavated by Arthur Evans. The palace at Knossos was part of, for 10 points, what ancient Greek civilization on Crete? ANSWER: Minoan Civilization <Bentley> 3. The Eberswalde Crater on Mars is largely one of these features, which can also be found in the Lunae Palus Quadrangle.
