To succeed in an AI world, students must learn the humantraits of writing
Students across Australia have started the new school year using pencils, pens and keyboards to learn to write. In workplaces, machines are also learning to write, so effectively that within a few years they may write better than humans. Sometimes they already do, as apps like
Grammarly demonstrate. Certainly, much everyday writing humans now do may soon be done by machines with artificial intelligence (AI).
The cheap pen that changed writing forever
1) The ballpoint pen was invented in the 1930s by László Bíró and his brother Győrgy, who developed a viscous ink that dried quickly and didn't smudge.
2) The first mass-produced ballpoint pen was introduced by Reynolds International Pen Company in 1945 and was an instant success, selling 30,000 pens in the first week.
3) The ballpoint pen replaced messy fountain pens and was affordable and practical for mass use due to advances in plastics and manufacturing.
Top 10 books about creative writing
There is never one way to assuage the concerns of those looking to make a career out of writing. Many labour tirelessly for decades on manuscripts that never make it to print. The UK on average publishes around 185,000 new titles per year, ranking us the third largest publishing
market in the world, yet the number of aspiring writers is substantially greater.
Saying more with less: 4 ways grammatical metaphor improvesacademic writing
Young children often write as they speak. But the way we speak and the way we write isn’t quitethe same. When we speak, we often use many clauses (which include groups of words) in asentence. But when we write – particularly in academic settings — we should use fewer clausesand make the meaning clear with fewer words and clauses than if we were speaking.
Street Roots vendor profile | A writer for as long as she can remebmber
This is the second year Bronwyn has worked as an editor on the Street Roots Holiday Zine committeeand her first as the lead. The Holiday Zine celebrates vendors’ writing and art. The theme of this year’szine is survival. Bronwyn loves being a part of the creative process with others, “the coming togetherof great minds, sharing the different perspectives about creative works,” and the opportunity to helpeach creative gem shine.
The psychological benefits of writing by hand
Word processors were met with mixed reactions when they debuted at the end of the ’60s. While they definitely made the task of writing faster, purists were as weary of this new technology as they were enamored of it. The writer John Updike, for instance,
said word processing made producing text “almost too easy.” In a letter to his editor at The New Yorker, Updike wrote, “I’ve bought a word processor and we’re slowly coming to an understanding. It’s quick as the devil, but has very little imagination,
and no small talk.”
Reading and Writing Again: On Zadie Smith’s “Intimations”
in the middle of one spring night said, “WHY NOT WRITING?” I answered myself in my notebook in the morning: “I DON’T WANT ANY OF THESE IDEAS.” I had also not been able to read, not before bed, not on the plane west. Not the celebrated memoir on my nightstand written by a poet who’d famously dined with a tyrant, not the favorite novel I’d turned to during a farewell Zoom conference, where my colleagues all brought parting words of joy Įom their own favorite works, where I compared New York, the town I’d called home for two decades, to the imaginary one called Gilead: “This whole town does look like whatever hope becomes aįer it begins to weary a little, then weary a little more. But hope deferred is still hope. I love this town.”
Decoding Cuneiform, One of the Earliest Forms of Writing
Sumer, arguably the world’s }rst civilization, was made up of a group of city-states. Located in Mesopotamia, what is now Iraq, these city-states engaged in trade and sometimes warfare with each other. They needed a system to record their }nancial transactions, and cuneiform did the job. So, unsurprisingly, the earliest examples of cuneiform show sales or the transfer of goods, such as grains or textiles, or the allocation of supplies.

Writing a novel is an arduous and solitary process that's why I need music
What I love most about this particular genre of music isn’t just the bass that makes my flat shake
(sorry neighbours) it’s the storytelling. And it’s the double entendres that I catch and rewind
over and over again, in awe of the wordplay. Two legends in the game, D Double E and Frisco,
released albums (Double or Nothing and The Familiar Stranger, respectively) while I was in the
last stretch of writing, and I had these on repeat, keeping me company and driving me forward,
while I was crawling towards the finish line. It’s a cultural crossover that few might expect, but
to me, now it makes total sense.

Promoting Strong Writing Skills With Digital Instruction
Writing is a crucial skill for learners, for their academic careers and their life after school. In our current situation,teachers need strategies for writing instruction that can be used in both face-to-face and virtual settings, becauseeven at schools that have reopened for in-person learning, there’s a chance we’ll have to shift back to distancelearning if local coronavirus cases surge. I have a technique that teachers across content areas and grade levelscan implement in their classes to enhance their writing instruction.
GCSEs: CCEA to close the book on English literature novel study
CCEA has published proposals to reduce what has to be taught in many GCSE subjects in the 2020/21 school year but has said public exams should take place again next summer.
"It would mean all students, regardless of their GCSE subject choices, can benefit from a reduction in the number of examinations they are required to take in summer 2021," CCEA said.

10 Tips for Beginner Day Hikers
While SectionHiker is a backpacking blog, I also do an enormous amount of day hiking and like it because it can be such a social experience. Here are some tips that I provide day hikers who are just getting started and contact me seeking advice, to set them on the right path.

SOLOGNAC WAIST BAG is an alternative to a rucksack when
walking in warm weather.
Its six zipped pockets are ideal for carrying essentials for a
summer hike, with a handy hook for your water bottle.
Even as the miles passed, the bag remained comfortable and
it does not chaff or cut in, thanks to the adjustable straps.
Good value too. I would recommend it.
Melbourne coronavirus lockdown: Can I visit my partner, play golf, go hiking ...
Victoria recorded its highest daily coronavirus case numbers since the pandemic began, with 191 new COVID-19 infections
confirmed on Tuesday.
Premier Daniel Andrews said most of those were in the corridor of hotspots in Melbourne.
It prompted the Government to announce a six-week lockdown of metropolitan Melbourne and the Mitchell Shire, which is
on the city's northern fringe.
It means a return to stay-at-home orders for more than 5 million people from 11:59pm on Wednesday.
We'll get to how the lockdown will work, but first let's look at who is included.
Should you wear a mask while hiking?
Hello, summer hiking season. Can I introduce you to the newest addition to my trail wardrobe? The mask.
Yes, face coverings have become a true hot-button subject, but there's solid, scientific evidence wearing one cuts down on the chance that you'll become infected with COVID-19 or that you'll be passing it along if you're one of those silent spreaders.
The question about whether to wear one outside isn't as clear cut, though. Doesn't the natural breeze prevent germs from hanging in the air? The CDC guidelines say you're OK as long as you're able to maintain six feet of distance from others.
That's not always easy to do on hiking trails, as we found out on a recent trip to the North Cascades National Park.
While grinding up the 1,500-foot vertical climb to Pyramid Lake, we saw no one else. The journey through the forest, accompanied by birdsong and the soothing sounds from the nearby creek were the kind of balm that's one of the reasons we're committed to getting out in nature as often as possible.
Follow the make-or-break journey of 4 elite surfers in Inflection Point
Imagine devoting your life to something you love. Imagine crafting your whole being toward a year that gets you in position to share the stage with the world’s elite, an elite group who also share this same exact devotion. Then, picture mustering an additional hyperfocus to fulfilling that dream during pivotal saidyear and the realisation comes down to one of two final events. Both of them in the hardest of conditions yet.
Strong Women: Surfing taught me how to fail – and come back stronger
She has the unique kind of determination and work ethic that you only find in world-class athletes, and her six national gold medals speak volumes to this.
But winning isn’t the only experience of being an elite athlete, and with the highs come the crushing lows.
A surfer's work out guide while on isolation
This article provides exercises that surfers can do at home while in isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic. It recommends yoga to help with stretching, foam rolling to reduce knots, and using a slap line to improve balance. It also suggests exercises like toe clocks to strengthen hips, shrimp squats to improve range of motion, and foundation training to decompress the spine and engage core muscles. These home workouts can satisfy a surfer's needs until they are able to access the waves again.
The 17 best action movies on Netflix
Whether you're a fan of science fiction or secret intelligence, car chases or rooftop combat, Neo or Indiana, super pigs or 007, there's an action movie for every kind of adrenaline seeker on Netflix. The streaming service has classics as well as fresh installments — plus a smattering of original projects all their own. With so much streaming, it can be an overwhelming task to choose an adventure.

This document discusses movies that people want to see retold from different character perspectives. It provides examples of movies and the character point of views people are interested in, including: Toy Story from Andy's perspective, Mean Girls from Regina George's perspective, Harry Potter from Neville's perspective, 500 Days of Summer from Summer's perspective, Bird Box from the perspective of the man who forced people's eyes open, and Twilight from Charlie's perspective.
Pants or no pants? Tips for virtual job interviews from home
If you have the good fortune of scoring a virtual job interview in the middle of a pandemic, the initial euphoria of potential employment may soon be replaced with anxiety over what to wear — as well as putting your home life on display for a potential employer.
93% of People You Interview for a Job Feel Anxious
Are you going to interview job candidates for your small business? If yes, then you should try to make them relaxed in order to better evaluate them because many job candidates feel anxious during interviews. And interview anxiety often rattles the performance of interviewees.
According to the recent survey recent survey from JDP, a majority of job candidates (93%) have experienced anxiety related to their interview.
Sweet, yet shy, Rocky seeks walking, hiking partner
Rocky is a 1-year-old hound/pit bull mix puppy who is shy but sweet. He is looking for an adoptive home with someone patient who can help continue his training and socialization. Rocky would make an excellent walking or hiking partner but needs to be in a home without cats or young children. The shelter is temporarily closed to the public due to COVID-19 but is still conducting adoptions by appointment only.
PA Fish & Boast Comission COVID-19 PSA
On April 2, the Appalachian Trail Conservancy and Appalachian Trail clubs requested that the federal government consider closing the trail to hiking. The trail — which, in Pennsylvania, crosses the Northeast Extension of the Pennsylvania Turnpike along a ridge in northern Lehigh and Northampton Counties — is already closed in some areas because of state and federal restrictions. Those areas can be found here (https://wildeast.appalachiantrail.org/explore/planand-prepare/hiking-basics/health/covid19/a-t-closures/). The conservancy requests that you stay off the trail no matter what local regulations advise because crowds have made hiking dangerous in many places.
Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptx
Increasing urbanization, rural–urban migration, rising standards of living, and rapid development associated with population growth have resulted in increased solid waste generation by industrial, domestic and other activities in Nairobi City. It has been noted in other contexts too that increasing population, changing consumption patterns, economic development, changing income, urbanization and industrialization all contribute to the increased generation of waste.
With the increasing urban population in Kenya, which is estimated to be growing at a rate higher than that of the country’s general population, waste generation and management is already a major challenge. The industrialization and urbanization process in the country, dominated by one major city – Nairobi, which has around four times the population of the next largest urban centre (Mombasa) – has witnessed an exponential increase in the generation of solid waste. It is projected that by 2030, about 50 per cent of the Kenyan population will be urban.
Aim:
A healthy, safe, secure and sustainable solid waste management system fit for a world – class city.
Improve and protect the public health of Nairobi residents and visitors.
Ecological health, diversity and productivity and maximize resource recovery through the participatory approach.
Goals:
Build awareness and capacity for source separation as essential components of sustainable waste management.
Build new environmentally sound infrastructure and systems for safe disposal of residual waste and replacing current dumpsites which should be commissioned.
Current solid waste management situation:
The status.
Solid waste generation rate is at 2240 tones / day
collection efficiently is at about 50%.
Actors i.e. city authorities, CBO’s , private firms and self-disposal
Current SWM Situation in Nairobi City:
Solid waste generation – collection – dumping
Good Practices:
• Separation – recycling – marketing.
• Open dumpsite dandora dump site through public education on source separation of waste, of which the situation can be reversed.
• Nairobi is one of the C40 cities in this respect , various actors in the solid waste management space have adopted a variety of technologies to reduce short lived climate pollutants including source separation , recycling , marketing of the recycled products.
• Through the network, it should expect to benefit from expertise of the different actors in the network in terms of applicable technologies and practices in reducing the short-lived climate pollutants.
Good practices:
Despite the dismal collection of solid waste in Nairobi city, there are practices and activities of informal actors (CBOs, CBO-SACCOs and yard shop operators) and other formal industrial actors on solid waste collection, recycling and waste reduction.
Practices and activities of these actor groups are viewed as innovations with the potential to change the way solid waste is handled.
CHALLENGES:
• Resource Allocation.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
ENVIRONMENT~ Renewable Energy Sources and their future prospects.
This presentation is for us to know that how our Environment need Attention for protection of our natural resources which are depleted day by day that's why we need to take time and shift our attention to renewable energy sources instead of non-renewable sources which are better and Eco-friendly for our environment. these renewable energy sources are so helpful for our planet and for every living organism which depends on environment.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.
