The barn owl lives anywhere with adequate shelter, small prey animals, and insects. They range across continents except Antarctica. Their main food is small rodents which depend on plants, but they also eat insects. Barn owls typically breed once per year and have 4-5 eggs, which the female incubates for around a month while the male provides food. Once hatched, the chicks fly at 6 weeks but remain dependent on parents for another couple weeks. The barn owl plays an important role in the local food chain by preying on small rodents and insects.

The document provides the schedule and agendas for several legislative committee meetings taking place from September 21, 2009 to October 2, 2009. It lists the date, time, committee name, location, and bills or topics to be discussed at each meeting. Some meetings are reserved for constituent meetings or office work. The committees include Public Safety, Rules and Judiciary, Labor and Agriculture, and Appropriations and Budget. Various bills related to expanding peace officer status, minor identification, texting while driving, and other issues are on the agendas to be discussed.
Christ the King Chapel at Mercyhurst College incorporates a variety of artistic media to tell the story of the Sisters of Mercy and celebrate their mission. A large mural depicts scenes from Jesus's life and the Sisters' work in teaching, healing, and counseling. Stained glass windows illustrate important biblical stories. Stations of the Cross are created as beautiful mosaics. The chapel also contains statues, tapestries, and icon images. The architecture and artwork connect the students giving the presentation to their Catholic faith and memories of attending mass there.
The document provides the calendar and agenda for committee meetings of the Virgin Islands Senate from August 10-21, 2009. On Monday August 10th, the Appropriations and Budget Committee will meet at 9:00 AM to discuss the Law Enforcement Planning Commission and Drug Enforcement, and at 6:00 PM the Housing, Sports and Veterans Affairs Committee will hold a hearing on bill 28-0084 relating to establishing racinos in the Virgin Islands. On Tuesday August 11th, the Financial Services, Infrastructure and Consumer Affairs Committee will take action on several bills relating to consumer protection and government employment.
Este documento describe los MOOC y su creciente popularidad en la educación superior iberoamericana. Los MOOC son cursos masivos y abiertos en línea que permiten el acceso global al conocimiento de forma gratuita. Se basan en la filosofía de liberar el conocimiento para hacerlo accesible a más personas de forma geográficamente dispersa. Su metodología didáctica enlaza con teorías sobre los beneficios del aprendizaje conectado y la necesidad de facilitar el acceso público al conocimiento científico y tecn
The document discusses two programs - BLASTing AmiGOs and "33" - that were designed to automatically generate Gene Ontology (GO) terms from gene/protein sequences. BLASTing AmiGOs takes FASTA sequences as input and outputs the associated GO terms without manual input. "33" queries a GO database using gene products from another group to retrieve GO terms and evidence codes. Manually collecting the same GO term data for 32 genes took 4-5 hours, while the programs could generate the terms automatically. The document compares the manual and automated methods and discusses using computational tools to help biologists more efficiently organize and access expanding genomic data.
You can’t take creative people, stick them in sterile, lowest cost per square foot spaces, and expect them to achieve the best work of their lives. Atlassian has been focussing heavily on the design of their work spaces, to create flexible, engaging, delightful, and yes productive places for their teams to work in.
Hear Alastair Simpson from Atlassian talk about the creative spaces they’ve designed that have scaled with the changing needs of their teams and what they’ve learned about the benefits of creating better environments through thoughtful design.
This document discusses alcohol use among college students through summaries of three articles on the topic. It finds that excessive drinking and binge drinking have increased among college students despite prevention efforts. Drinking games are linked to alcohol poisoning deaths that have doubled in recent years. It also explores how college students often use alcohol to cope with social anxiety, as the pressures of college life can exacerbate psychological risks.
Raymond J. Castagnaro has over 20 years of experience in export compliance and is seeking a position as VP/Director of Export Compliance and Licensing. He has extensive experience as an Empowered Official and has established relationships with licensing officials at the Department of State and Department of Defense. His expertise includes developing comprehensive compliance programs, conducting audits, and obtaining necessary licenses and approvals for defense and aerospace companies.
The document discusses the Women's Institute for Leadership Development (WILD) for Human Rights and its mission to advance human rights in the US through education and implementation of human rights treaties. WILD's vision is for everyone to enjoy inherent dignity regardless of identity. The organization aims to position marginalized women as leaders to advance policies promoting community rights. The document also provides acknowledgments for those involved in creating a report on the value of implementing the UN Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) in San Francisco over the past 10 years.

4. Studenterna digitaliserar
• Först mobilen
• Nu laptoppen, 1-till-1
• “Öppna” plattformar och applikationer,
digitala böcker, versionshantering, osv
• tillgång till utbildningsmedia, och
egenproducerat utbildningsmaterial
5. “Gamla” forskningsfrågor
inom IT och lärande
• Vi skulle digitalisera utbildningen
• Ska vi involvera IT?
• Hur ska den IT vi använder
designas för pedagogiska syften?
• Hur ska IT användas som
pedagogiskt verktyg?
• IT för specifika ämnen, !
matematik osv.
6. Hur reagerar “vi”?
• So what? Varför förändra något?
• IT leder till fusk och mobbing!
• Detta är MITT klassrum!
• Man lär sig fel med datorer!
• quot;men iiiih, vf så tidit??? inte så att vi bara har EN dag på oss o fixa skiten... wtf man ?! ta
1o lr nåt istället....quot;
• Man kan inte lite på datorn och nätet!
7. Saker vi kan fundera
mindre kring:
• IT:s vara eller icke vara i utbildningen
• Nätbaserad utbildning, utbildning på
distans, flexibel utbildning, lokal
• Verktygsanpassning, i synnerhet synkron-
asynkron diskussion
• Konsekvenstänkande - isolerade studier
8. Några frågor som behöver
akut uppmärksamhet
• Vilket ansvar har vi för att påverka teknikutveckling och
utvecklingen av användning?
• Utbilda i användningen?
• Etiska och moraliska frågor kring teknikanvändning
• Direkt feedback, handledning, alltid tillgänglig
• Att flytta läraktiviteter online (till de miljöer där studenterna
finns).
• Sömlös integration av studenters teknikanvändning (teknisk,
praktisk och pedagogisk), tekniken som överbryggare
10. Insamling
• Kurs i att använda fältstudier i design
• Mindre studentgrupper
• Även gruppmedlemmarna på olika platser, och tider
• Insamling med anteckningsböcker, mobilkamera,
ljudinspelning, dokument
• Laddades upp till en gemensam WIKI, alla grupper utom en
delade allt
• Analysarbete och kommenterande gjordes på WIKIn
• Resultatet var ett shortpaper
21. Några anekdoter efter
detta
• Vi får tillgång till studenternas plattformar
• Gav kursen på distans
• När lärarna experimenterar gör också
studenterna det
