I made my poster very simple. I made the title of the event far away from the details to emphasize it, since it is the most important piece of information. I also made the speaker's name bold and slightly larger than the other text since it was also important.
Alison Jayne now closed!! Evidence of the decline of Morriston due to out of town shopping centres like Fforestfach, Asda Hypermarket & Shops on Enterprise Zone?
Tablet pens can act as a computer mouse, keeping some of the basic needs of the mouse: functionality, reliability, usability, and proficiency. It adds onto the creativity need, by giving the user more freedom over things such as digital art on the computer. And as an addition to functionality, some tablets also have buttons on the interface that act as additional shortcut keys and other quick settings.
There's always another person above you. And as we know from the work of Laurence J. Peter, everybody eventually reaches the level where they are incompetent. Seen on a street corner in central Halle.

Ultra-Small-Angle Neutron Scattering Instrument
USANS is designed for the study of hierarchical structures in natural and artificial materials. It can be considered an advanced version of the classical Bonse-Hart double-crystal diffractometer (DCD), which in contrast with its single-wavelength reactor-based analog, will operate with the discrete multiwavelength spectrum of Bragg reflections.
The optical scheme of the USANS instrument is similar to that of the conventional Bonse-Hart DCD; however, the pulsed nature of SNS offers an opportunity to separate the orders of Bragg reflection in time space using the time-of-flight technique. Thus, the application of time-of-flight to the USANS technique allows the separation of data optimized for neutron flux and the Q resolution or minimum accessible Q while simultaneously removing contamination by higher harmonic reflections, one of the most significant contributions to the intrinsic instrument background on this class of instruments.

FOUR. A Rediscovery of the 'Tetragonus Mundus' - Marten Kuilman (1996/2011), P. 31-32:
CAVINESS (1983) gave a well-documented survey of the fourfold 'visio' at the end of the twelfth century. She, like NOLAN (1977), did not place the senses in a particular sequence, but they have something to say about order. Instrumental in their approach was Richard of St. Victor - the Magnus Contemplator - who died in 1173 and was correctly regarded as a key-figure in the interpretation of the spiritual attitude in the later Middle Ages. His utilization of the four 'senses' marked the historic schism between the old, non-hierarchical (four-fold) way and the new, hierarchical (two-fold) way.
At the end of the twelfth century the four, individual - but interrelated - ways of seeing were gradually moulded into a scheme based on opposites: low, simple, down to earth, visible versus high, difficult, heavenly and invisible:
Low/easy reach/weak
1. Corporal view - the visible world
2. Mystical view - the spiritual world
3. Figurative view - the moral world
4. Anagogic view - the visionary world
High/unattainable/strong
Richard of St. Victor's 'orbis quadratus', so vividly described by Barbara BRONDER (1972), moved to a lower division, if the opposites of low-high, human-godlike and body-soul are emphasized. The fourfold 'visio' only returned to a new understanding after six hundred year of Renaissances, Ages of Reason and Romanticism (STAUDINGER LANE et al, 2009).
SEARS’ book 'The Ages of Man' (1986) will be mentioned next to the work of Esmeijer. The mediaeval division - not only fourfold - was here the well-researched area of interest. Sears gave many examples of division in ages, cosmological speculations and pointed to the symbolism of figures. She drew the conclusion, that 'the quadripartite life was defined within a cosmological system developed in antiquity and subsequently transmitted to the Middle Ages'.
The relation between the 'antique tetradic thought' and the mediaeval equivalent was painted from Pythagoras as a source, to Empedocles (four elements), Hippocrates (four humours), Ovidius (Metamorphosis) to Theon of Smyrna (the tetractys as ordering-principle), Ptolemy (Tetrabiblos) and Antiochus of Athens (with a tetradic program). Followed by Ambrosius (the 'syzygy' of elements, 'virtues cardinales'), Isidore of Seville (Liber de Natura Rerum) and the 'quarternarius' of the Anglo-Saxon monk Byrhtferth, with a culmination in the anonymous, early twelfth century, publication of the 'Tractatus de Quaternario', concerned with the 'force and power of the number four' (fig. 11). This sequence is, to a certain extend, rather eclectic and suggestive, but proves, nevertheless, that the tetradic interest has a long and colorful history.
CAPLAN (1929) and SMALLEY (1931) took up the importance of the four senses as a guiding line in the Scholastic period. The latter, in her article on 'Stephen Langton and the Four Senses of Scripture' stated that 'the multiple interpretation, its technique, and its value to those who used it, are just beginning to be discussed.' She referred to Cassian, who gave a clear definition in his 'Collationes' (XIV, 8). Guibert of Nogent (MIGNE, 1844/64, PL. CLVI, col. 26) gave the example of the four meanings (senses) of the word ‘Jerusalem’ (fig. 4), but there is no proof that Guibert was the originator.
Here is an example of the Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs pyramid. I like this example because it goes into greater detail than the one used in our lessons and even provides pictures of the needs.
Sometimes it's easy to forget what people need on a basic level when creating a product. There is a progression that must occur in order to fully achieve a solid design.
This is painting from the middle ages. You can tell by the gold background and the use of hierarchy of scale. You can see that there is not much of a difference in facial expression which is customary of the Middle Ages. What is weird is that there seems to be a linear perspective. You can see the orthogonals leading to Christ's head. This is strange because linear perspective was not realized until Brunelleschi around 1420.

Project Description:
On BBC News, March 28, 2007, there was a great article on a breakthrough study published in the journal Nature, that started with: "The extinction of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago had little effect on the evolution of mammals".
One theory had suggested the rise of the mammals was directly linked to the disappearance of the dinosaurs. The evidence challenging the connection comes from the most complete family tree compiled for mammals. It shows how different groups, such as primates and rodents, are related and when they diverged. An international team compiled the mammal "supertree" from existing fossil data and from genetic analyses.
As Kate Jones, a co-author of the project explained: "The supertree is a new way of showing all the mammal species on the planet, starting with a common ancestor. Species relationships can be inferred from morphological characteristics and genetic sequences". And she continues by saying: "If we had done this from scratch, we would have had to get molecular and morphological data for 4,000 different species. (...) What we did instead was use already published information from hundreds of researchers around the world. We used a new technique called supertree construction which allows us to get all the information that's out there, re-code it and re-analyse it as if it's all part of one dataset."
Your phone number in rwanda defines your social status (including who will answer your calls!) This number begins with 08 and is therefore 'old school', owned by people who've had a mobile for a while or who hold important positions. New numbers beginning with 03 (like ours) belong to 'peasants', i.e. those who have only just got a mobile. Generally people won't answer a call from an 03 number if they don't know it! The other communication trend here is 'beeping', where you just call someone and hang up so they know you've called. Similar to a facebook 'poke', it doesn't really mean more than 'hi', but you're expected to 'beep' back or return the call.
