Seed contamination

[edit]

Archived discussion follows below. Please do not modify it.

This request for creation has been reviewed. The reviewer comments appear below the article text.

Seed contamination is the mixing of seeds used for agriculture with other seeds which are not desirable or soil (which may carry seeds). An example would be mixing corn seed with weed seed. These contaminant seeds can be either common weeds or other crop seeds.

In genetic engineering, seed contamination may refer to unwanted genes found in a seed, or pieces of DNA from other genetically engineered seeds.

Contamination in Agriculture

[edit]

Contamination (in agriculture) most often occurs when seeds which will be sold to be planted are gathered. In this process, weed seeds may be caught with the product. Most larger seeds are found and removed, but sometimes smaller seeds may continue with the desirable seeds. When planted, the hidden weeds compete for space, water, and nutrients, which creates an annoying problem for farmers. If the weed is not native to the area and introduced by the seed, it could potentially become very invasive and harmful to other plants.

Almost the same process can occur with flower seeds. When the seeds are gathered, weeds are also gathered. Since flower seeds are often sold throughout the world, there is a greater danger that a wild plant could be introduced to an area.

Contamination in Genetic Engineering

[edit]

Contamination in this area is most likely caused by other genetically engineered seeds cross pollinating with unchanged seeds. The new seeds that are produced will have significantly altered DNA than the parent seed. This mutation could potentially then be passed down for generations. It is possible that the alterations could affect plant growth and development.

Prevention

[edit]

Preventing seed contamination in agriculture is fairly hard, almost impossible. Better machines constantly help to reduce the number of foreign seeds gathered.

Preventing seed contamination in genetic engineering is simply a matter of seperating "pure" seeds from contaminated ones. This will keep a supply of unaltered seeds for future use. If they are allowed to cross pollinate, it is possible that the altered traits will be passed down.

Government agencies, especially within the United States, are setting up programs to stop seed contamination from genetic engineering. The Gone to Seedreport lays out a plan to:

Conduct a study to determine the effects, causes, and extent of seed contamination
Change current seed regulations to prevent contamination
Create a "bank" of unaltered seeds

fleet problem

[edit]

Archived discussion follows below. Please do not modify it.

This request for creation has been reviewed. The reviewer comments appear below the article text.

Fleet problem was the term by the U.S. Navy to describe each of twenty one large-scale navel exercises conducted between 1923 and 1940. They are labeled with roman numerals, as in Fleet Problem I through Fleet Problem XXI. A twenty-second Fleet Problem exercise scheduled for 1941 was canceled because of the Second World War.

The fleet problems were usually once a year exercises in which U.S. naval forces would engage in mock battles. One or more of the forces would play the part of a European or Asian navy. They were the culmination of the Navy's annual training maneuvers.

If your request was declined and you want to make changes and try again, copy and paste your article into a new submission and make your changes there.

Pierre Bourque sr. Pierre Bourque sr. (Pierre Henri Bourque ) Developer Ottawa, Canada

Pierre Bourque sr. was born in Lowertown Ottawa in 1932, youngest son of Mayor E.A. Bourque and Evelyn Martin.

He attended Technical High School and Ottawa University.

In 1950 he worked in heating and air conditioning equipment sales for Bourque Freres Ltd,

In 1960 he began his career as a developer.

He purchased part of the Eastern arm of Wakefield Lake, Quebec, subdivided it and sold cottage lots

In 1962 he purchased the Wallingford Fish and Game Club, an 11 lake preserve in Perkins, Quebec, 20 miles from Ottawa.

Perkins Sure le Lac soon became a desirable cottage site. Roads were built and electricity was brought in. Hundreds of cottage lots were sold.

In 1963 he became a partner with brothers Edouard , Bernard, of Laurentian Realties Ltd.

The company won a tender call for downtown Ottawa office space and built the E. A . Bourque Memorial Building in honour of his late father.

They purchased the following two Quebec City companies

Cie the Photogrametrie Ltée. The company executed mapping contracts for the Province of Quebec

Photo Air Laurentide Ltee owned several planes and helicopters and did aerial photography for the Province of Quebec, kept and operated the province`s photo library

In 1963 Bourque built the Carrefour building rue Principale in Hull, Quebec, and leased it to Metropolitan Stores, Laura Secord, Bata, etc

In 1964 his company won another tender and built the Sir Wilfrid Laurier Building, which housed the Department of the Solicitor General.

Bourque bought and leased the Connor Washing Machine plant in Hull, Quebec, to Indian Affairs.

In 1973 the partnership with remaining living brother Edouard was dissolved.

Bourque buildings were sold and Quebec City companies were sold to the Province of Quebec.

In 1980 Pierre Bourque founded Bourque Pierre FILS Ltée

The new Company purchased a 125-acre quarry from Ciment Lafarge Limitée in the heart of Hull, Quebec

People claimed Bourque had taken leave of his senses, that the deep stone quarry was only good for garbage disposal. Bourque maintains that history will uphold his vision that this site will become the most prestigious piece of land in the Outaouais.

In 1981 Bourque sold eight acres to Provigo for a food store and a few shops. Bourque cut the pumps at the bottom of the quarry and allowed water to find its natural level , becoming a lake in the center of the City of Hull

In 1982 Bourque won a Tender call from Public Works Canada and built the Louis Saint Laurent Building in Hull, which is leased to the Department of National Defence and houses 3,000 employees.

Bourque. gave more than 12 acres of land to the City of Hull of land for Boulevard de la Carriere.

Bourque gave three acres of land to the Quebec Govt. for Exchange St. Raymond.

In 1990 Philippe Bourque, Pierre's youngest son, opened an Acura automobile dealership at the corner of St. Raymond and Boulevard de la Carriere.

In 1986 Bourque purchased La Culbute , the waterfalls between MacArthur & Grand lakes. He added to the this some 3 miles of waterfront on Grand lake. ,as well as one mile on MacArthur lake. This year round high end home development is known as Grand Rivage

In 1990, Public Works called a tender for a building to house Transport Canada.

Bourque engages world-renowned architect Moishe Safdie to design the building.

Bourque's was the winning tender but the Government cancelled the project, citing capital costs when, in fact, none were involved. The building was to be leased only.

Bourque renegotiated a new 25- year Lease-Purchase agreement with the Conservative Government which provided an option for the Government of Canada to purchase the Louis St. Laurent building in for $15,000,000 (Fifteen Million Dollars) in 20016

In 1991 Bourque sold 10 acres to Canadian Tire to build a giant store.

In 1992, the Company won a competition and sold land to Casiloc, the Quebec Casino Corporation.

In 1995 Casino du Lac Leamy opened its doors. and year later, a 250-room Hilton Hotel and Conference Centre was built - an investment of $500,000,000 (Five Hundred million Dollars.)

Since 2000 Bourque has been waging a legal battle with mortgage holder, Sun Life, et al, who want to take the possession of the St. Laurent Building.

Bourque is suing Sun Life for $11,000,000 (Eleven Million Dollars) in damages. Since 1991, Sun Life has never missed one month's rent from the Government of Canada.

The Rent is based on Government of Canada bond rates. Quebec Superior Court judge Marcelin called Sun Life as "piggish" for wanting to charge Bourque with 12% interest, 4.5% additional percentage points in interest over the 7 3/4 % going rate and the one set by the court. Sun accepted the court set 7 3/4 %.

Pierre Bourque is asking the Quebec Superior court to fast track his lawsuit .

In 2005, Pierre Bourque became a consultant to IMMOBILIARE Developments Ltd, one of his son Philippe`s companies.

The company is offering to build 1.3 million square feet of office space for the Government of Canada on land adjoining the Louis St. Laurent site.

The $200,000,000 (Two Hundred Million Dollar) complex could accommodate 5,000 federal employees.

Josef Allerberger

Archived discussion follows below. Please do not modify it.

This request for creation has been reviewed. The reviewer comments appear below the article text.

Josef "Sepp" Allerberger is recognized as the second leading German sniper of WW II with a total number of recognized kills at 257. Josef served all of his time, 1943-1945, on the Eastern Front fighting the Russians. In one engagement alone he killed 58 Russians which prompted his recognition by higher and the eventual award of the Knight's Cross. Due to the German Army's strict accountability system he was never given full credit for his total number of kills. His total number of kills was most likely double of what is recognized.

Officer Candidates Class (OCC) - Like the Marine Corps other commissioning programs, PLC (Jr, Sr, Combined) Officer Candidates Class is another means by which one can qualify to become a commissioned Marine Corps Officer. The basic premise of the OCC is to train, screen and evaluate those candidates who have already graduated from a four year college or university. Candidates can expect training exactly of those in a PLC combined course. Courses are conducted throughout various times during the year, mainly in the summer and winter. Candidates receive training and academics on basic infantry tactics, Uniform Code of Military Justice, weapons handling, basic navigation, and Marine small unit leadership. Physical training in an OCC class is rigorous and demanding. Daily physical training (PT) along with PT events such as obstacle courses, endurance courses, stamina courses, individual movement courses, navigation courses, combat courses, and individual runs are conducted to evaluate a Marine Officer Candidate's level of physical fitness and command ability, as Marines are expected to "lead from the front." The OCC is usually a ten week course. After successful completion, Candidates are normally commissioned as 2nd Lieutenants in the Marine Corps Reserve. www.marineofficer.com

Mud weight refers to the density of drilling fluid in a well bore, measured in terms of Mass/Volume e.g. lbs/gallon, lbs/cubic foot, kg/cumbic metre.

Drilling fluids are important to lubricate and cool the drill head, prevent unwanted inflow of fluids into the well bore and to prevent collapse of the openhole and casing.

It is important to balance the weight of the mud against the anticipated pressures down the well. Unexpected sudden jumps in the pressure regime can cause the inflow of fluids into the well which can lead to a dangerous blowout. Having to high a mud weight can cause loss of circulation of drilling fluids, infilling pores and damaging the drilled stratigraphy.

In the unoffical novels based in the Halo universe Dom or Spartan 118 is a experimental solider for the spartan 2 program. He is paired of with three other soliders to form the ultimate tactical squad.

Dom is the leader of the unit and uses his modified sniper rifle which he personally created himself Although he works efficently with all squad mates he works bes with 069 who he refers to as his brother weather or not that is true we are unsure but they act as thoguh they are.

The spartan squad in the origanal novels were more comedic but in the newer novels the spartans become more serious and put the mission ahead of themselves

Abilities

[edit]

He displays incredable strength but has never used it in an actual one on one fight, many have fought him but only a few have seen him close up, this is because he attacks from long range and rarely ever engages in hand to hand combat.

o-y is a term developed from Northeastern Massachusetts in the Lowell area.

The term is used in context of something bad happening (usually a strike or blow to the groin area). The term "o-y" came to be because that is what is usually uttered by the person as the bad event is occuring to him or her.

"oh, why!"

FACT: o-y also came to be as a variation of Nancy Kerrigan's "Why me?" however it was used inappropriately as "Oh why?"

Mario Benzing (December 7, 1896 – November 29, 1958) was an Italian novelist and translator of German origins, often forced to sign as Mario Benzi because of the period fascist Italian laws. He was born in Como, Italy and lived in Milan. Between the two World Wars, he wrote in Italian several novels and biographies of historical figures, as Messalina, Cleopatra and the Queen Christina of Sweden. As a literary translator from English, German and French, he specially devoted his work, often as first Italian translator, to Joseph Conrad, Rudyard Kipling, Jack London, Arthur Schnitzler, Lewis Carroll, Pelham Grenville Wodehouse, Edgar Wallace, Hugh Walpole, Edgar Allan Poe, Herbert George Wells, Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann, Klabund, Helen Hunt Jackson, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Johannes Vilhelm Jensen and many others, with a special sensitiveness in translating original poems in regular Italian verses.

Most catalogs tout the term "ringspun cotton" to describe the fiber used in their garments, but few people know what it means. "Ringspun" refers to cotton spun using the ring spinning method. This method of spinning came into being in 1828, when John Thorp patented the ring spinner, but did not actually catch on in wide use until the 1840s. It displaced other earlier spinning methods like the mule because it had the advantage of spinning the fiber continuously and winding it onto a bobbin for storage in one motion. Although it too was a continuous spinner, the flyer frame was largely abandoned after the Civil War in favor of the ring spinner.

Today, ring spinning is the most widely used method for spinning fibers, and is used not just for cotton but for manmade fibers, whether they are fine or coarse.

An illustration of a ring spinner can be seen at http://www.maths.usyd.edu.au/gal/jamesc/rsm.html.

Roddy Woomble is the lead singer and lyricist of the Scottish band Idlewild. Born on August 13th 1976, Woomble moved around significantly during his childhood, living in France when young before moving to America where he started his first band with a friend, called The Zoobies From Mars. He recalls with amusement that they had a song called The Zoobies from Mars Will Kick Your Face. He then moved back to Scotland and at nineteen began a degree in Photography. Living in Edinburgh, he met Colin Newton and Rod Jones, both future members of Idlewild. Woomble took the name of his band from the quiet meeting place in Anne of Green Gables, his favourite book at the time – an ironic choice since the band was reknowned in their early days for their loud and chaotic gigs, during which Woomble would contort himself desperately into manic shapes behind the microphone. However as Idlewild matured, they have mellowed into a gentler band and Woomble’s deep and richly melodic voice, now more often heard singing rather than yelling, has on many occasions been justly likened to that of Michael Stipe from REM. He moved back to the United States after the success of Idlewild’s top ten album, The Remote Part, and lived in New York for some time developing a love for America whilst nurturing his pride in Scotland. Having hinted in an interview in More magazine in 2002 that he was keen on messy-haired bassist ladies, in late 2005 Woomble married his girlfriend Ailidh Lennon, who plays bass for the Glaswegian punk-folk band Sons and Daughters, a group that has supported Idlewild on several occasions.

Projects outside of Idlewild In 2002, Woomble worked with the Reindeer Section on the album Son of Evil Reindeer, providing the lead vocals on the gentle ballad Who Told You. He also collaborated with Kate Rusby for her 2005 album Girl Who Couldn’t Fly which was nominated for Album of the Year at the 2006 BBC Folk Awards, singing backing vocals for the songs No Names, Wandering Soul and Fare Thee Well, which was nominated for Song of the Year. He is now working with songwriter Karine Polwart (to whom he presented the award for Horizon Award at the BBC Folk Awards 2005) and producer (and husband of Kate Rusby) John McKusker on his first solo album which is set to be released in mid-2006, around the same time as the upcoming Idlewild album. He performed live with John McKusker in Glasgow and with Karine Polwart, both in January 2006.

Thomas Hollis

Hollis, Thomas (1720–1774), political propagandist, was born in London on 14 April 1720, the only child of Thomas Hollis (d. 1735). Hollis was educated at Adams Grammar School in Newport, Shropshire, then in St. Albans for a short while before spending 15 months in Amsterdam, where he learned Dutch, French, writing, maths, book keeping in preparation for a business career. He lived with his father, who died in 1735, and then under the guardianship of John Hollister. He took chambers in Lincoln's Inn, though without reading law, from February 1740 to 1748. By then he was extremely wealthy, having inherited from his uncle and also from his father and then in 1738, his grandfather.

In 1748–9 he toured Europe with a friend Thomas Brand (late Brand Hollis), and, then during 1750–53, mostly on his own, during which he met many leading French philosophers and several Italian painters. Back in England he was an dedicated member of the Society of Arts, and chaired for a time its committee on the polite arts. A member of the Society of Antiquaries, he proposed Piranesi for membership of the Society of Antiquaries, gave numerous commissions to Cipriani, and, as amongst Canaletto's closest friends in England, commissioned six paintings from him. he became a fellow of the Royal Society in 1757. He was accused by some of being an atheist, Hollis was a rational dissenter, he favoured Caleb Fleming's ministry at Pinners' Hall. He was anti-Catholic and campaigned vigorously against popery; he became convinced that he was the intended victim of a Catholic plot. He had a wide network of friends, among them liberal churchmen such as Francis Blackburne and Theophilus Lindsey, John Wilkes, several peers, and especially the elder William Pitt.

Hollis believed citizenship should be active: individuals had an important role to play in public life. He fulfilled this responsibility by charitable work as a governor of Guy's and St Thomas's hospitals, and a guardian of the asylum and Magdalen Hospital.

Following his great-uncle Thomas's practice, Hollis was a great benefactor to American colleges, especially Harvard, sending donations and numerous books, often decorated with libertarian symbols. From 1755 his principal American correspondent was Jonathan Mayhew of Boston, and, after his death in 1766, Andrew Eliot. He also followed worsening Anglo-American political relations during the 1760s. Declining to participate directly in politics he published short pieces in the newspapers and printed and circulated colonial tracts in Britain, frequently subsidizing the printers to ensure their appearance. In particular he contributed to the successful campaign against the appointment of an American bishop by reprinting sermons by Mayhew and others. He also compiled The True Sentiments of America in 1768; it incorporated John Adams's Dissertation on the Canon and the Feudal Law, which he greatly admired. But he denied inciting the colonies to independence.

Horace Walpole considered Hollis ‘as simple a poor soul as ever existed’. Cipriani, described him as being over 6 feet tall and Herculean in size & strength, possessing bright brown eyes, a short nose, and laughing mouth. He also remarked on his gentleness and sweetness of manner. Exhausted by the effort of what he originally intended as only a ten-year campaign to disseminate libertarian tracts, Hollis retired in 1770 to Urles Farm, at Corscombe, Dorset, where he owned about 3000 acres. He died there suddenly on 1 January 1774, and was buried in one of his fields and the grave ploughed over. He was unmarried, and after minor legacies left his estates to Thomas Brand, who added Hollis's name to his own.

David Mery is a French citizen living and working in London. He came to the attention of the media after being detained by the police at Southwark underground station under the authority of the Terrorism Act. This was on the 28th of July 2005, not long after the July bombing incidents in London. After checking both him and his possessions the police apologized for detaining him needlessly, only to arrest him moments later. Subsequent to this he was held for questioning for seven hours, had his DNA taken and his flat raided. He was released and later all charges were dropped although the police still retain his DNA, all related evidence and he has an arrest record.

The story of how an ordinary commuter can enter a Kafkaesque nightmare cleary demonstrates the real risk of the police threading together vague suspicions and tentatively related facts to build a case, inadvertently or otherwise, against an entirely innocent person. A similar chain of suspicions over entirely innocent activity led to the killing of Mr Jean Charles de Menezes a week earlier.

George Wooten was an obscure proffesional boxer during the 1970's-mid 1980's. He was known as "Chicken George" as, being from West Virginia, he was a well known "Cock Fighter" from the region. He was known mostly for his powerful all or nothing boxing style and going his entire career without losing a single match by knockout. At the height of his career he was schedualed to fight with the, then recently turned proffesional, Mike Tyson, though due to weather conditions this fight never took place. He has since fallen into obscurity, and according to some local officials in his home town of Oceana, WV he has a mounting police record. Sadly, this is the fate of a great deal of boxers who cannot keep up with the "ride" of Championship Boxing.

Most moderators of other actuarial sites have a stick up there rear end. They hide behind the stained glass and make arbitrary and capricious decisions about avatars and post content, like posting on an anonymous internet board should have the same rules of decorum as real life.

Teen Missions International is an interdenominational evanagelical Christian mission organization that specializes in sending teenagers on short-term mission trips, usually during their summer or holiday breaks. Teen Missions is headquartered in Merritt Island, Florida but has bases situated around the world. Their training is a boot camp style jungle camp incorporating Bibilical and evangelical Christian themes. The training program is known as "The Lord's Boot Camp." The training lasts one to two weeks. The teams of teenagers and adult leaders are then commissioned to their project locations for another three to eight weeks. They end their project time at a one week debrief location, usually at one of multiple Teen Mission's bases around the world. Teen Missions runs year round mainly operating to prepare and support the short term teenager programs. Teen Missions also runs Bible,Missionary,and Work (BMW) training centers and orphanages around the world. It runs a conference center at its Merritt Island, Florida location and a campground nearby. Teen Missions also sponsers a touring group of international young adults known as the Missionaries To America and a life size replica of the Biblical Isreali tabernacle which is housed for tours at different locations throughout the United States.

History

Teen Missions International was started on May 6,1970 in Ohio. The founders included director Robert M. Bland, Bernie Bland, Gayle "Widder" Will, and Jim Person. Robert Bland came up with the idea for Teen Missions while serving as director for the local Youth For Christ. He seen a need for an effective program for teenagers to experience missions work firsthand. The initial program was started in Ohio in 1971 and was later relocated to a swampland area off of Hall Road in Merritt Island, Florida. The Florida swamp conditions were more like the jungle conditions that some of the teams would encounter in the remote areas where they were going for their project. The Teen Missions has been headquartered at the Merritt Island location for about 35 years. Teen Missions later launched oversea operations serving the national teenagers with a similar trainig program. Teen Missions currently has "Overseas Boot Camps" in Honduras, Brazil, Columbia, Ecuador, Australia, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Ukraine, etc. Teen Missions has been expanding their operations in many more countries every year, also providing orphanages and bible training schools.

Teen Missions has reported that "over 40,000 teens and adults from the U.S. and Canada have taken part in its program having assisted with a variety of evangelistic and building projects with over 200 established missions in over 110 countries."About TMI

Spart is an art movement which came into being in 2002. Its main proponents are based in various countries throughout Europe. Spart essentially lies within a tradition of avant-garde art, although what sets it apart is its apparent understanding of the avant-garde as a genre, rather than an ideology. Most recent Spart activities include: The International Spart Insurgence, (Sofia, Bulgaria 2004) A performance action by Spartist Justin McKeown at the Ludwig Museum (Budapest, Hungary 2005)
