Este documento presenta el proceso de construcción de una pregunta de investigación sobre la relación entre el cuerpo, la publicidad y la educación basada en documentos históricos. Describe cómo los anuncios de la época promovían numerosos medicamentos y tratamientos para una variedad de enfermedades, y cómo surgieron figuras como el médico escolar encargado de velar por la salud de los estudiantes. También analiza documentos legislativos que definían las responsabilidades en educación e inspección escolar.

Over the past 20 years, techniques have discovered over 3000 exoplanets. While the search for an "Earth Twin" has so far been unsuccessful, it is increasingly recognized that habitable zones for life could be broader than initially thought, beyond conditions similar to Earth. The talk will explain exoplanet discovery techniques and explore new ideas about possible habitats for life in space, most of which would be very different than conditions on Earth.
ND Forum Carl Wieman 09.15.14
Carl Wieman, a Nobel Laureate in Physics and professor at Stanford University, will give a talk titled "Taking a Scientific Approach to Science Education" on Monday, September 15 at 7 PM in the Leighton Concert Hall at the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center. He will discuss narrowing the gap between scientific advancements and science education by explaining the relationship between research and effective teaching and learning. The event is free and open to the public, with ticket distribution beginning one hour before.
Spotlighting South Bend - December 20, 2013
From the event organizer:
Dear Friend,
You are invited on Friday, December 20, 2013 to spend a day honoring the innovation that has built and is still growing South Bend.
As a community, we honor our past that relentlessly pursued the innovative spirit that built our community and embodied the name Studebaker. Fifty years ago on December 20th the lights turned off on the last Studebaker facility. However, the hard work and craftsmanship that thrived in those plants live on.
From 10:00 am to 4:30 pm, Union Station Technology Center is opening Ivy Tower (Building 84) for guided tours. The Studebaker Driver’s Club will offer special tours, with Studebaker retiree guides starting at 2:30 pm. The Studebaker Administration Building will also be available for tours from 12:00 pm to 4:30 pm. All tours will start from 635 S. Lafayette Street in South Bend. With the existing development plans, this could be one of the last times that the facility will be open for tours in its original state.
At 5:00 pm in Union Station’s grand hall, we will host an event to spotlight South Bend’s innovation. Specifically, the program will honor former Studebaker retirees, highlight current innovation in our community and point to innovation of the future.
Shortly after 6:00 pm, please join us outside Union Station, near Coveleski Stadium and throughout downtown to see our City spotlighted, demonstrating that the light of innovation that sparked our community remains on and bright today.
You are also encouraged to visit the Studebaker National Museum (free admission that day), the South Bend Museum of Art, and other downtown South Bend activities. All of the events are showcased in the attached flyer.
Please join us in spotlighting South Bend on this important day in our City’s history.
Sincerely,
Kevin M. Smith

Study of life time of muons
This study analyzed data from a detector that measured cosmic ray muons to determine their lifetime. The researcher used Matlab to draw a histogram of the data and fit an exponential decay curve to calculate the lifetime. The curve had a slope that corresponded to a lifetime of 2.63 microseconds, consistent with known literature values for the muon lifetime.

Tourism Investment Opportunities in Northern Uganda
From the forward:
The departure of the Lord’s Resistance Army has breathed new life into northern Uganda. The region is enjoying more visitors and its reputation as a “no go” area is being gradually reversed. Improved security is allowing the rapid development of the region and generating increasing interest from businesses and tourists alike.
With this in mind, the Wildlife Conservation Society and the Uganda Tourism Association have undertaken a study, with support from USAID through the WILD programme, to gauge the potential of tourism in northern Uganda and to promote its development and expansion. The study focused on untapped or underutilized attractions in Nebbi, Arua, Moyo and Adjumani Districts in the West Nile sub-region; Amuru, Gulu, Lamwo, Kitgum and Pader Districts in the central part of the Northern Region and Kaabong District in Karamoja. Murchison Falls National Park was not included in this study in light of its already well-developed tourism infrastructure.
This publication is the result of that study and its purpose is to introduce prospective investors to the variety of natural, cultural and historical attractions in the region that can be drawn on for tourism. It also is intended to support the Ugandan government’s plans to diversify tourism products within the country – particularly along the Nile. It is our hope that it will inspire responsible private and government investment that will bring economic benefits to the local communities as well as protect and preserve the area’s varied and unique resources.
The Wildlife Conservation Society is thankful to Charles Abola and Jim Ayorekire of Image Consult for carrying out this study. We also acknowledge the valuable contributions of the Uganda Wildlife Authority, the National Forestry Authority, Uganda Museums, the Ministry of Trade, Tourism and Industry, the Ugandan Tourist Board and relevant district officials to this study, in addition to the development of Uganda’s tourism industry as a whole. We also appreciate the valuable input from private sector companies, who have shown genuine interest in the opportunities provided by northern Uganda.
A final word of thanks goes to USAID for its generous support to conservation and tourism in Uganda in general and the WILD programme in particular. It is USAID’s assistance that supported the study and allowed this brochure to be developed and printed.
Northern Uganda is open for business and tourists!

Dr. Klaus Mainzer public presentation at Notre Dame: "CNN Philosophy: From C...
Cellular Nonlinear/Neural Network (CNN) technology is both a revolutionary concept and an experimentally proven new computing paradigm. It lays the groundwork for a new approach to information processing that is based on brain-inspired spatial-temporal behavior in large-scale, cellular arrays of nanoeletronic processing elements. Prof. and Dr. Klaus Mainzer will explore CNN philosophy’s links with deep problems of epistemology and broach the ways that bio-inspired computing leads to questions of societal acceptance and ethical benchmarks.
Prof. Dr. Klaus Mainzer is a philosopher of science and director of the Center for Technology and Society at the University of Technology, Munich. He studies the foundations and future perspectives of science and technology focusing on mathematical treatment and computer modeling as well as complex systems in the natural world, science, business, and society. His research areas include self-organization, chaos theory, artificial intelligence, and artificial life.
Mainzer is a participant in NDnano’s NSF-EAGER grant, “Computer Architectures for 2020 and Beyond.”
