This photo shows our mid-elevation field site in a quiet moment. The plants in the background are part of a large reciprocal transplant experiment including six species: three originating from lowland environments and three from alpine areas. By growing them across different elevations, we aim to understand what constrains species’ range limits and how these limits may shift under climate change. The image captures a silent, sunny day in July — a summer that was colder and wetter than in previous years — reminding us how strongly ecological processes depend on changing environmental conditions.
For my photography project, I intended on focusing on expressions and emotions that stand out in a single image.I tried to replicate Mark's theme of loneliness and disparity. I focused on emotional facial expressions and a constraining composition just as she did in her photograph. I purposefully turned the photo in black in white as I intended on making the facial expression and bodily language a focal point of the image. I put my subjects in costume to exemplify this feeling of homelessness, just as the Damm family looked.
Although I included less people than Mark, I believe my image still works because the people in my photograph are still slightly constrained and pushed into this small frame. I also took the shot from a different perspective than she did, but I like how I put emphasis on my brother as his face may be stronger than Patrick's.

EL ANATSUI - BEHIND THE RED MOON: A journey through monumental new artwork made of shimmering metal fragments in the Turbine Hall of the Tate Modern
“Each material has its properties, physical and even spiritual - El Anatsui
Staged as an artwork in three acts, El Anatsui's cascading metal hangings transform the Turbine Hall. Thousands of repurposed liquor bottle tops and metal fragments were crumpled, crushed, and connected by hand with copper wire into unique compositions.
Later, large sheets were pieced together to form massive abstract fields of colour, shape, and line. Despite being monumental in scale, the works are flexible and adaptable to change. Descending from the Turbine Hall's ceiling, Anatsuis symphonic sculptures hang in the air and seem to float across the space.
You are invited to embark on a journey of movement and interaction through the hangings, a dance between bodies and sculptures.
Anatsui's free-flowing forms challenge the building's industrial scale and open up different ways of looking. Viewing the hangings from afar reveals a landscape of symbols: the moon, the sail, the Earth, and the wall. Up close, the logos on the bottle tops speak to their social and material life as commodities. As products of a global industry built on colonial trade routes, they connect the overlapping histories of Africa, Europe and the Americas. Revealing the poetic possibilities of his materials, Anatsui explores the entangled relationships and geographies that bind us together.
ACT III: THE WALL
In this final act, a monumental black wall stretches from floor to ceiling. Anatsui's interest in walls is rooted in the ancient story of the earthen wall of Notsie (present-day Togo). Built by King Agokoli to contine and oppress his subjects, a revolutionary uprising by the Ewe people led to the wall's destruction and the Ewe's escape. As well as structures that constrain and encircle, Anatsui also speaks of the productive quality of walls as 'an attempt to hide things. They provoke curiosity and curiosity might get imagination out to the other side.'
Facing the yellow back of the sail, the wall might suggest an arrival at shore. Metal pools rise from the ground at the base of the wall, resembling crashing waves and rocky peaks. For Anatsui, the use of black refers to the continent of Africa and its global diaspora, charged with the potential of homecoming and return. Moving behind the wall reveals an edifice of shimmering silver, covered in a multi-coloured mosaic. As lines and waves of blackness and technicolour meet, they echo the collision of global cultures and hybrid identities that Anatsui invites us to consider throughout the commission.”

This talk will provide an overview on Hornbeck's research agenda, which explores how economies grow and adapt by drawing lessons from the historical development of the American economy. Much of economics is concerned with why some places are poor and some are rich, which is closely related to why some places became rich and some remained poor. His research uses particular historical episodes to better understand issues related to this central theme within economics, as history often provides unique opportunities to understand economic adaptation and growth.
Some common themes in this research include: how enforcement of property rights encourages growth and transaction costs constrain growth; the magnitude of productivity spillovers across firms and their impacts on workers; impacts of market integration; how the economy adapts to a changing environment; and general adaptation to labor or capital scarcity. These topics often relate to how economic behavior and the natural environment combine to shape economic outcomes.

The exhibition Human Pyramid by artist Isla Hansen explores the relationship between body and technology, confronting the feeling of oppressive technological progress with objects of play. Through the use of digital fabrication processes and automated technologies in combination with the hand made, hand modeled, hand molded, and hand finished, the artist aims to reveal the myth of automation -- the often hidden human labor that is always a necessary part of using automated tools, often perceived as more technological than our own bodies. Human Pyramid explores the contradiction, absurdity, tragedy, and joy inherent in the human attempt to build worlds and control them through the use of tools and labor. Inspired by DIY home construction shows, erector sets and construction games, objects of play, sports media, and the notion of self-replicating machines, Human Pyramid searches for an aesthetic that reclaims the tools of oppressive systems constraining bodies at play and bodies at work.
Panel (a): energy vs. arrival time w.r.t the GBM trigger time for
the 160 LAT photons that passed the transient off-line event selection (red) and the 161 photons that passed the onboard
γ-ray filter (cyan), and are consistent with the direction of GRB 090510. The solid and dashed curves are normalized to
pass through the highest energy (31 GeV) photon and represent the relation between a photon's energy and arrival time for linear (n=1) and quadratic (n=2) LIV, respectively,
assuming it is emitted at t tart−T0 = −30 ms (black; first small
GBM pulse onset), 530 ms (red; main 100 MeV emission onset), 730 ms (blue; >GeV emission onset).
Photons emitted at tstart would be located along such a line due to (a positive) LIV induced time delay.
Panels (b)–(f): GBM and LAT lightcurves, from lowest to
highest energies. Panel (f) also overlays energy vs.
arrival time for each photon, with the energy scale displayed on the right side. The dashed-dotted vertical
lines show our 4 different possible choices for tstart. The g
ray shaded regions indicate the arrival time of the 31 GeV photon ± 10 ms (on the right) and of a 750
MeV photon (during the first GBM pulse)±20 ms (on the left)
, which can both constrain anegative time delay. Panels
(b) and (c) show background subtracted
lightcurves for GBM NaI in the 8–260 keV band and a GBM BGO in the 0.260–5MeV band, respectively.
Panels (d)–(f) show, respectively, LAT events passing
the onboard γ-ray filter, LAT transient class events with E > 100
MeV, and LAT transient class events with E > 1
GeV. In all lightcurves, the time-bin width is 10
ms. In panels (b)–(e) the per-second count rate is displayed on the right for convenience.

Here i have started rigging :D. Ive started rigging this before i finish the snail as im wanted to to both stages of the rigs at the same time so im doing the muscles and rig for both one week, then the paint weights the same time the next week.
When rigging my preferred approach is to sketch some plans of how things might work, then create the control curves first. This way i know all the controls i need and what constrains they have instead of adding more controls at the end and finding out i have to delete and re-constrain things to get the new controls to work.
Other things I've added are simple 2 point nurbs curves with clusters at either end so i know what controls are attached to whet e.g. the eye controls have one end of the line attached to the eye control and the other to the actual eye it controls. This way when animating i can easily see what controls do what and where a control might be hidden.

Add a basic shape, I chose a sun and added a drop shadow, bevel and emboss, and outer glow to the shape. Duplicate the shape and add multiply blending mode. Added the text and add drop shadow, outer glow, gradient overlay, stroke.

Much of the testing world sees test automation through a common lens, a common mental model. This is the paradigm of the assembly line robot: deterministic, mechanical actions repeated time and again. Whilst this model may have its uses, as with all models, it also has its failings: ways in which it constrains how we think about testing problems.

Although it seems that excessive snowmelt has caused this river to misbehave, the raised bank on the right was no doubt built by land "improvers" who wanted to constrain the water and prevent it from taking its natural course, meandering down this gentle valley. On the right, the floodwater can be seen to have reached the bottom of the rising ground. View downstream from the small bridge carrying the driveway to Cringletie Hotel.
Larimar
Radiates love and peace and promotes tranquility.
It naturally raises consciousness and harmonizes the body and
soul to new vibrations.
Spiritually, it is empowering, dissolving boundaries that constrain the spiritual self, and
guiding the soul onto its true pathway in life.
Larimar facilitates angelic contact and communication with other realms.
It is an excellent stone for those seeking a soul mate, and it facilitates the healing of past relationships and heart trauma.
Psychologically, Larimar removes self imposed blockages and constrains.
It dissolves self-sabotaging behavior and assists taking control of life, particularly useful for alleviating guilt and removing fear.
Mentally, it brings serenity and clarity and constructive thought.
It stimulates creativity and encourages “going with the flow”.
Emotionally it brings calmness and equilibrium.
It is an antidote to emotional extremes.

This will probably get me thrown out of the class, but Protagonist did say that he refused to constrain our vision.
Was assigned by the district manager to help out sister store to adjust their visual presentations (wall setup). Came up with wall setups that fits in with the company's brand image. Also with the constrain of different heights of dividers (which are not moveable) within the wall units, I was able to present products visibly well than before.
When under time constrains and/or wanting to keep travel costs under control, one can always find ways to connect with nature within a short distance from urban centers. Here, with past year’s images I am sort of giving a heads up as to what one might discover along the Rideau Canal.

EL ANATSUI - BEHIND THE RED MOON: A journey through monumental new artwork made of shimmering metal fragments in the Turbine Hall of the Tate Modern
“Each material has its properties, physical and even spiritual - El Anatsui
Staged as an artwork in three acts, El Anatsui's cascading metal hangings transform the Turbine Hall. Thousands of repurposed liquor bottle tops and metal fragments were crumpled, crushed, and connected by hand with copper wire into unique compositions.
Later, large sheets were pieced together to form massive abstract fields of colour, shape, and line. Despite being monumental in scale, the works are flexible and adaptable to change. Descending from the Turbine Hall's ceiling, Anatsuis symphonic sculptures hang in the air and seem to float across the space.
You are invited to embark on a journey of movement and interaction through the hangings, a dance between bodies and sculptures.
Anatsui's free-flowing forms challenge the building's industrial scale and open up different ways of looking. Viewing the hangings from afar reveals a landscape of symbols: the moon, the sail, the Earth, and the wall. Up close, the logos on the bottle tops speak to their social and material life as commodities. As products of a global industry built on colonial trade routes, they connect the overlapping histories of Africa, Europe and the Americas. Revealing the poetic possibilities of his materials, Anatsui explores the entangled relationships and geographies that bind us together.
ACT III: THE WALL
In this final act, a monumental black wall stretches from floor to ceiling. Anatsui's interest in walls is rooted in the ancient story of the earthen wall of Notsie (present-day Togo). Built by King Agokoli to contine and oppress his subjects, a revolutionary uprising by the Ewe people led to the wall's destruction and the Ewe's escape. As well as structures that constrain and encircle, Anatsui also speaks of the productive quality of walls as 'an attempt to hide things. They provoke curiosity and curiosity might get imagination out to the other side.'
Facing the yellow back of the sail, the wall might suggest an arrival at shore. Metal pools rise from the ground at the base of the wall, resembling crashing waves and rocky peaks. For Anatsui, the use of black refers to the continent of Africa and its global diaspora, charged with the potential of homecoming and return. Moving behind the wall reveals an edifice of shimmering silver, covered in a multi-coloured mosaic. As lines and waves of blackness and technicolour meet, they echo the collision of global cultures and hybrid identities that Anatsui invites us to consider throughout the commission.”

The portrait by Charles Camoin shows Amélie Matisse-Parayre at work. Henri Matisse's wife was a gifted modiste who ran her own fashion shop from 1899 until 1902. Before her husband was successful with his art, her business was vital to supporting the family, which by then numbered five. As the painting records, she was often dressed after the latest fashion. The loose-fitting garment, a kimono, did not constrain her at work; by contrast with the bodice, it was regarded as a symbol of - physical and personal - freedom. Camoin's detailed rendition of the fabrics reflects his interest in artisan craftwork, which did not command the same prestige as painting.

Walden Pond - "I did not pay a tax to, or recognize the authority of, the state which buys and sells men, women, and children, like cattle at the door of its senate-house. I had gone down to the woods for other purposes. But, wherever a man goes, men will pursue and paw him with their dirty institutions, and, if they can, constrain him to belong to their desperate odd-fellow society. It is true, I might have resisted forcibly with more or less effect, might have run 'amok' against society; but I preferred that society should run 'amok' against me, it being the desperate party."

The MID Seminar Series offered a forum for the presentation and in-depth discussion of thematic studies and results developed as part of the Mozambique Institutional Diagnostic (MID) study. Elaborated by key specialists in their fields, the topics covered by the studies include decentralization, education, natural resources, and the rule of law in Mozambique.
Launched in June 2019 by the Inclusive growth in Mozambique programme, the Mozambique Institutional Diagnostic (MID) study is a unique collaboration between various international research institutions, including the University of Copenhagen, UNU-WIDER, and Oxford Policy Management (OPM), and local high-level analysts. The study explores the relationship between the characteristics and functioning of Mozambican institutions and the economic performance of the country. The key goal of the study is to produce an institutional diagnostic tool that allows policymakers to identify institutional weaknesses that constrain economic development and indicates possible directions for reforms and change.

Article Title: A quantitative study of cotyledon positioning in conifer development
Author: David M. Holloway, Byron Brook, JooHyun Kang, Cameron Wong, and Michael Wu
Citation: Botany, 2016, 94(11): 1063-1074, doi.org/10.1139/cjb-2015-0242

Caption: Fig. 1.Positioning conifer cotyledons on the surface of the embryo. (a and b) Cotyledons form with a characteristic spacing (?) within a whorl. Cotyledon numbers vary between individuals owing to variation in diameter (scale bars = 250 µm in (a) and 200 µm in (b); these are older larch embryos, with substantial cotyledon outgrowth; adapted from Harrison and von Aderkas 2004, reproduced with permission). (c and d) Cotyledon patterning occurs during a change in embryo geometry, from a hemispherical dome (c) to a flattened top (d). Arrows indicate the first visible sign of cotyledon initials (larch embryos, adapted from Nagata et al. 2013, reproduced with permission). Line segment d represents the measured diameter (†). (e) Representation of the embryo geometry and the factors involved in positioning the cotyledons. Polar coordinates for a circular embryo, with radial coordinate r and circumferential coordinate (longitude). A point on the early-stage (hemispherical) dome would also have a latitude (?) coordinate; as the embryo flattens, ? decreases and the geometry becomes more disk-like. The ? parameter specifies flatness, varying between ? = 1 (hemisphere) and ? = 0 (disk). (f) Top-view of the geometry, with the r, coordinate system and parameters as described above (adapted from Harrison and von Aderkas 2004, reproduced with permission). There are two aspects to positioning the cotyledons (black spots) on such a surface (see text): P1, constraining cotyledons to form in a whorl, at a certain radial distance from the embryo’s tip or the outer edge (inset, b/2) of the morphogenetic tissue (red, e); and P2, setting the intercotyledon spacing (?), within the whorl (along the coordinate). The slope is ?/p and b is the y-intercept in †. The diameter of the cotyledon whorl is d – b. www.nrcresearchpress.com/journal/cjb

Screen addiction in kids Showing kids how to deal with computer games and their very own feelings while playing computer games can be extreme. A few guardians see their children cheerfully playing computer games and would prefer not to disturb or outrage them by instructing them to stop. Different guardians use computer games as a sitter so they can get everything from cooking to cleaning to work done around the house. It's reasonable in light of the fact that getting Screen Addiction In Kids something — anything! — done when you have children can be a genuine test, and it can make constraining amusement time as difficult for guardians for what it's worth for children. However, in the event that that amusement time is antagonistically influencing your youngster, it's a penance you're going to need to make.

Former Center for Racial Justice visiting fellow, legal scholar, and sociologist Atinuke O. Adediran discussed her new book Disclosureland: How Corporate Words Constrain Racial Progress. Drawing from social science research and legal analysis, Disclosureland uncovers the power structures and institutional practices that determine how companies respond to calls for change. Critical, insightful, and forward-thinking, Disclosureland challenges readers to look beyond public rhetoric to understand how corporate narratives shape our collective pursuit of fairness, equity, and shared responsibility. Adediran was joined in conversation by Mark S. Mizruchi, U-M professor of sociology.

The exhibition Human Pyramid by artist Isla Hansen explores the relationship between body and technology, confronting the feeling of oppressive technological progress with objects of play. Through the use of digital fabrication processes and automated technologies in combination with the hand made, hand modeled, hand molded, and hand finished, the artist aims to reveal the myth of automation -- the often hidden human labor that is always a necessary part of using automated tools, often perceived as more technological than our own bodies. Human Pyramid explores the contradiction, absurdity, tragedy, and joy inherent in the human attempt to build worlds and control them through the use of tools and labor. Inspired by DIY home construction shows, erector sets and construction games, objects of play, sports media, and the notion of self-replicating machines, Human Pyramid searches for an aesthetic that reclaims the tools of oppressive systems constraining bodies at play and bodies at work.
A lonely tree growing on a rocky crag in the middle of Skilak Lake. Like a bonsai, though it is small it may be many years old, dwarfed because its harsh envoirment constrains it growth

WI-Fi in Hostels, Creating Wi-Fi Parks in Public spaces: Implementing Wi-Fi in the whole .
campus has been a constant struggle fought by NSUI. After our concrete efforts, JNU .
administration managed to clinch a MoU with MTNL for implementation of Wi-Fi in Hostels. But it .
has been implemented only in Academic Complex. It is very important in facilitating the research .

Upgrade of Academic Infrastructure: We demand the library to be open 24x7, increase the reading halls in library. After increasing the seats, the load on classes have increased and the classrooms are not able to accommodate the students. Some MA classes have more than 100 students in a single room. These classes do not have even proper ventilation and air circulation. Such classrooms need to be updated soon and all classes who have more than 50 students must also have air conditioning. The Hellen keller unit needs to be expanded and Braille transcription of course material must be provided in all centers for VH. students. Day scholars have a lot of problems \Vhen they have a long gap between the classes. We demand the administration to immediately construct a new hall for day scholar students. .
Central Scholarship and reimbursement Cell: Lots of students who receive CSIR and other scholarships have problems in receiving the scholarship in time. They have to condone every time they have to get contingency bills. Most of the scholarships come to the students after 6 months or more. To reduce the red-tapism, timely distribution of scholarships, we need a proactive centralized scholarship and reimbursement cell. .
Health Insurance for students: Health insurance needs a very nominal amount (100-200 Per head) from administration but it is very important for JNU Students. In year 2007 JNU Administration proposed a scheme for JNU students or free, but the then AISA led JNUSU derailed the proposal citing that the insurance Company was an multinational company without any deliberation within student community. We feel there is an urgent need for health insurance for students, and it must be implemented very soon. .
Extension of Scholarships till completion of 9B: The research scholars in the .final year of their research are deprived of any Financial help, which is most important in the final year of their work. JNU Students have already initiated a struggle for the issue. NSUI expresses solidarity with them and we will also carry foxward their struggle from our side. .
Introduce gender sensitive courses: In the context of the tragic incident of 31st July and different suggestions given to avoid such incidents in future, we would like to demand. gender sensitive courses for different disciplines and interactive programs in Courses. .
Making the campl:lS more PH/VH friendly: In the last few years, -Govt. has released funds for making the campus more PH/VH friendly. But there are still a lot of complaints from the PH students. These must be addressed immediately and the campus should be 100°/o PH/VH friendly. .
