Gallery | Your photos on your website Dynamic optical illusions. Pictures, 3D and animation OK, this one really belongs in the Skytopia 3D stereoscopic gallery, but I just couldn't resist. If you can cross your eyes, so that both pictures slide 'into' each other - to form a third, 3D image between them, the effect you will see is truly stunning! Try focusing on something in between you and the monitor to help see the illusion. If you're still stuck and you really want to see the illusion, try this site to help practise seeing 3-D stereo. If you can't manage to see this cross eyed version below, then try the parallel version here. For this parallel version you look behind the monitor and just like the cross eyed version - try to get the two tubes to match up.

Blood Groups and Typing Blood transfusions were not possible until Karl Landsteiner first identified the major human blood groups -- namely O, A, B, and AB -- in a series of experiments in 1901 that earned him the Nobel Prize. (At the time, Landsteiner identified only groups A, B, and O; further analysis, two years later, revealed AB.) The ABO blood groups are defined by specific inherited molecules, or antigens, that are present on the surface of red blood cells. Thus, one inherits either A or B antigens (group A or B), both A and B antigens (group AB), or neither antigen (group O). Conversely, a person develops a natural immunity, or antibody, in their plasma to the ABO antigens that are absent on their own red cells. If group A red cells are mistakenly transfused to a group O recipient, for example, the anti-A antibody in the recipient's plasma destroys the transfused group A cells and a serious transfusion reaction occurs. There are many other antigens on the red cell surface.

Rebellion: John Horse and the Black Seminoles, First Black Rebels to Beat American Slavery Zoom.it Lifeline USA Plants used to detect gas leaks, from outer space! Public release date: 6-Apr-2006 [ Print | E-mail Share ] [ Close Window ] Contact: Lucy Moorel.moore1@lancaster.ac.uk 44-786-664-7434Society for Experimental Biology Gas leaks can be potentially life threatening in the home, but the presence of gas stresses out plants too. In the UK in 2001, emission of methane from the gas distribution system was 16% of the total UK methane emissions; such losses are not only costly to the gas distributors, but can contribute to global warming since methane has a global warming potential about 8 times that of CO2. This remote-sensing technology can be used to detect any type of stress that causes asphyxiation of the plant roots. [ Print | E-mail AAAS and EurekAlert!

National Postsecondary Education Cooperative/NPEC - Draft Commissioned Papers The recommendations and opinions expressed by the authors of the commissioned papers are not necessarily those of the National Postsecondary Education Cooperative (NPEC). As part of its National Symposium on Postsecondary Student Success, the National Postsecondary Education Cooperative (NPEC) commissioned five papers from researchers in the field to address the question “What is student success?” Each of the commissioned papers explored this question from a different viewpoint and each made a unique contribution to the literature in this field. The papers also identified the need for future research and theory on this topic, and offered recommendations for improving policy and practice related to student success in postsecondary education. The Hearn paper, the Ewell-Wellman paper and the five commissioned papers, can be accessed using the links below.

Education World ® : Curriculum: Journal Writing Every Day: Teachers Say It Really Works! One of the best things about daily journal writing is that it can take so many forms. Teachers can use journal writing to meet specific goals, or the purpose can be wide open. Some teachers check journal writing and work on polishing skills; others use journals as the one "uncorrected" form of writing that students produce. Some teachers provide prompts to help students begin their writing. "They have come such a long way in their writing," said teacher Laura Black. Daily journal writing has helped Black's students at St. "They are not afraid to take on any writing that may come their way," added Black, "because they have built up extreme confidence." That's progress any teacher would be proud of -- and Laura Black teaches first grade! Black is one of countless teachers who work journal writing into their daily lessons, often with unexpectedly profound results. "I've noticed they write more fluently with less 'think' time as the year progresses," added Scifres. At St.

The HeartMDPhD.com Cardiology Web Site (History Behind the 2PD-OMER Approach) Since 1994, my LORD has opened my eyes to a dreadful health problem that predicted certain mortality and humbled my very best efforts at treatment. Cardiovascular problems, endocrine abnormalities, and even cancers were more responsive to treatment than this increasingly more common "ailment." Yes, the problem is obesity. Despite valiant counseling by clinic nutritionists and dietitians... despite calorie counting... despite food journals... despite exercise... obese patients typically (more than 90%) gained rather than lost weight. Americans are getting fatter! Through knowledge of genetics, it is clear that this trend of increasing girth is occurring too fast to be a phenomenon of newly inherited obesity genes. This has got to stop. In 1997, my LORD cleared out my body (HIS Temple), and then the Holy Spirit led my wife and I to watch an IMAX film about climbing Mt. So I started a little experiment with the agreeable obese patients in my care. Here are the instructions given to patients:
