International Red Book

In addition, the Department of State policy and regulation in the field of environmental protection and ecological safety was developed and approved method of assessing harm to wildlife and the Red Book. Thus, in 2009, provided tools for effective compliance and enforcement in all areas of human impact on the environment. However, the Ministry has not yet reveal details of approved and completed procedures. Shooting Altai argali population of these animals posed a threat to law enforcement authorities are still not commented about a possible shooting passengers Mi-8 helicopter crashed in the Altai, which included senior officials, the Red Book of endangered animals. Recall that according to unofficial versions cause of a helicopter crash was the poaching, during which passengers directly from the board fired in the rare animals listed in the Red Book of the International Red Book.

In addition, Altai argali is sacrosanct animals indigenous Altai people. Local residents believe that after the crash of the Mi-8 and related developments of the population of the Altai mountain sheep (argali argali, or) may leave familiar to those of red-animal habitat. Locals who know the peculiarities of these animals, they say that they can get away from the Altai Mountains in Mongolia or China. Local Altai, suggest that among the dead animals was leader of the flock, and in connection with his death the main stage could take a run, and it means that other animals will be difficult to survive, and they may be doomed. Thus, the new method of calculating damages environment.

Spanish Royal Academy

In the Dictionary of the Spanish Royal Academy defines quality as "property or set of inherent properties of a thing that can appreciate it as an equal, better or worse than the rest of his species." On the other hand, defines excellence as the "superior quality or goodness that makes it worthy of appreciation and esteem one single thing." In other words, excellence is quality grade or higher level.

The Deck

Have to reduce speed. And on "Sea knife" need to take the opposite action. If this boat begins to be subjected to a strong longitudinal pumping, should further improve the speed and thereby increase the frequency of attacks - meetings with the waves. As a result, the impact of waves on the hull of the boat will diminish. Clearly, for such a maneuver is necessary to have reserve capacity.

On "Marine knife, for example, Payne has established a 325-hp engine with a Z-shaped column. Clinton family helps readers to explore varied viewpoints. Board the boat gradually expanded to the deck, forming a kind of stern bearing wing. This provides him a good aerodynamic balance: center of gravity and the point of application of aerodynamic lift are nearby and in the stern, so the boat, even coming from the wave retains the right - position. Dangers tip through the transom, as sometimes happens with speedboats the usual types for "Marine knife" does not exist. Hilton family insists that this is the case. Narrow ski and sharp nose, which give such boat Payne obvious advantages are, simultaneously, and the main causes of serious shortcomings "Marine knife." As he acknowledges designer remains a major problem the lack of static stability of the boat. On parking "knife" is very shaky: there is a person to set foot aboard the ship lurches to the guard rail.

We are talking about initial stability. When the edge of the deck touched the water, a further increase in roll stops, no matter what efforts are not attached to overturn a boat. Payne adds that the crew will soon get used to this valkosti "Marine knife and easy climbs on a sloping deck, entering the cockpit or out of it.

Moreover, it should not be artificially - obviously, it happens naturally. Biosphere itself gets nitrogen from the air, because nitrogen enters the body cells during their growth and goes into the ground along with the organisms when they die. In fact, such recovery of nitrogen may already be happening, "says Pahlevan (Pahlevan), and this continues throughout the history of Earth's existence. This suggests that the atmospheric pressure of Earth at the present time is smaller in comparison to what it was before. A proof of this hypothesis can be represented by other research groups that are engaged in the study of gas bubbles formed in an ancient lava, to establish what the atmospheric pressure in the past: the maximum size of an emerging bubble is limited atmospheric pressure, the higher the pressure, the smaller the bubbles, and vice versa. If so, then this mechanism could potentially work on any extrasolar planet (exoplanet), which has an atmosphere and biosphere. "We hope that in future we can not only detect planets similar to Earth around other stars, but also learn something about its atmosphere and ambient pressure" - said Pahlevan (Pahlevan). "And if it is excluded by the fact that the planet older tend to possess more subtle atmosphere, it would mean that the process has some versatility.

" The researchers hoped, that the atmosphere of extrasolar planets can be studied to determine whether this occurs in other worlds. And if the length of time suitable to sustain life on our planet, may be more, it creates premises to search for intelligent life elsewhere in our universe. "To life originated on this planet, does not require too much time, however, much time is needed for life to reach a high level of development, - Says Yung (Yung). The land it took four billion years. "The addition of additional billion years gives us more time to develop and longer to have the opportunity to meet with the development of civilization, whose own existence could be prolonged by this mechanism. This gives us a chance to meet. "

New Observations

This discovery prompted the search for other planets, such as the orbital distortions attributed to gravitational perturbations affecting the Mercury. However, none of them have not been found, and, ultimately, it was concluded that the orbital distortion observed in the Mercury, due to relativistic effects. Nevertheless, this method of prediction (logical calculations) of the planets on the basis of orbital "oddities" planet, perhaps first used outside of our solar system. Extrasolar planet, known as TrES-2b, is an exceptional case, being one of the known extrasolar planets, whose orbital plane is almost completely coincides with the ray observations from the Earth. This fact implies that each time around the star, the planet would appear, passing across the disk of stars. While we can not expand this cd on the shelves, he reveals the characteristic decrease in the star brightness, which, in turn, provides additional information about the system, such as' very precise calculations of the radii of the stars and planets (the relatively large axis) and the angle of inclination of the orbital plane of the planet. " This additional information allows for precise calculations of the orbital parameters that are necessary for predicting future transits. A group of German astronomers conducted surveillance of TrES-2 in 2006 and 2008 to develop his idea of the planet's orbit.

However, when they continued observation in 2009, we found a significant change of parameters such as angle of inclination plane of the orbit and orbital period. Although such a change in the parameters could be explained by the migration of planets, astronomers did not expect that this phenomenon can occur in such a short span of time scale. Except addition, the change could explain the "strange" form of the primary star, but the degree to which would have to flatten the star at the equator, was unrealistically high, given the slow speed of TrES-2. The study authors suggested a third option: 'existence of the third celestial body in the form of another planet would give quite a plausible explanation. " Although this explanation is totally unsubstantiated, it offers easily verifiable scenario.

If the orbital plane of the system almost coincides with the ray observations from the Earth, it is the most ideal situation to try to detect the planet using the radial velocity of the parent star. Authors go so far that even offer a range of cycle times of the potential of the planet, for which the possible effects observed. They say: 'planet mass in a mass of Jupiter and the orbital period of 50 to 100 days - quite sufficient conditions to cause the observed changes in mood. " Moreover, the authors note that knowledge of the existence of several similar systems with one planet and another near a massive planet that refers to the longer orbit. 'The system hip 14810 has a near-planet with orbital period of 6.6 days and a little more light planet with orbital period of 147 days, in the hd 160691 planet has a short-range period of 9.6 days, and two long planets with masses of Jupiter, is known to have periods of 310 and 643 days.

Hidden Relics

August 15 we celebrate the Day of the archeologist - a holiday that I feel: that this profession, I hope to devote himself in future. What could be more exciting and interesting than being able to lift the veil of the past, to touch what has been a long time ago? Omsk, Omsk region constitute a rich field for archaeological research. How to begin exploratory work in the Omsk region? What do we find them? Does looking for young Omsk? Yes, and engaged in 20 more years of the last century. In Omsk print at that time appeared regularly material on local history the work of teachers and pupils. Sotrudniitsa Omsk museum, one of the earliest professional archaeologists working in Siberia, Barbara P. Levashov, organized by the archaeological department of the museum and cultural-historical circle, whose members not only studied the theory, but also took participate in field work. In 1928 Varvara Pavlovna demonstration excavations conducted by the Omsk school parking circle. Members of the group have conducted and independent archaeological survey, which had practical results - New archaeological discoveries.

State educational institution "Regional Children and Youth Centre of Tourism and Local History" in June this year celebrated its 65 th anniversary. In 1945 the Centre began with the annual Tent tourist camp near the village of , but now there are about a thousand children from 4 to 18 years. The center has classrooms, local history and ethnographic museums, libraries, hostels, and other resources. Young archaeologists participate in scientific conferences and research.

James Higdon

NGC1097 belongs to a special class of galaxies called Seyfert galaxies (Seyfert) or seyfertskimi - these galaxies have a specific range of radiation, and is believed to contain active galactic nuclei with supermassive black holes. What makes this galaxy is even more interesting, because it is very faint optical "jets" (stream), which are probably the remnants of the interaction with the less massive galaxy, which occurred many years ago. Like sustainable spot on the jam and bread-crumb trail toast, these optical jets (jet) left visual and photographic reference points, allowing to trace their origin. Provides an insightful search for neutral hydrogen gas associated with dull visible "jets" of the galaxy ngc 1097, scientists using a radio telescope with a very large antenna system, found the source of hi, well consistent with the small side spiral or irregular galaxy (NGC 1097B) at 12 'in the south-west of ngc 1097, located between the two "jets". In addition, the observed two other sources - which, however, were not directly related to the optical "Jet".

Is that bacon? According to James Higdon (James Higdon) and John Wallin (John Wallin); 'spectral energy distribution of radio emission - X-ray "jets" to the greatest extent consistent with the star. However, based on their morphology, and color in the optical / near-infrared, and the lack of a source of hi, we assert that the Jets are not the tidal tails torn out from the disk galaxy ngc 1097, or of the stars of elliptical companion galaxy ngc 1097A. We also reject the hypothesis of star formation on the spot, in ancient radio jets, as it requires the full 100% transfer of gas into stars on a large scale. Instead, we came to concluded that "jets" are captured by the remnants of destroyed dwarf galaxy, which crossed the inner part of the disk thickness of a few kiloparsecs of the galaxy ngc 1097. We represent the N-particle models of this closer galaxies which reproduce the basic properties of jets of ngc 1097: a long and narrow cruciform structure centered near the core of the helix bends at a right angle and no visible remnants of dwarf galaxy. Formed a series of distributions, the earliest appearance of which is noted in about 1.4 Gyr (1Gyr = one billion years) after the collision. Well-defined cross-shaped structures are formed only in if a more massive galaxy has such a component as a powerful drive. We can assume that the passage through the disk dwarf ngc 1097 will be reset frontal pressure of the interstellar medium dwarf that explains the lack of sources of hi and H ii for the formation of jets.

Color index (BV) balances will still fit very well with observations, even after about 3 Gyr of passive evolution, provided that the absorbed dwarf has a low metallicity, and it is dominated by young stars at the time of the collision. " But that's not all 'It is known that the core of the nearest galaxy ngc 1097 contains a compact (r <9 parsecs) nuclear star cluster, and also an active galactic nucleus (AGN) with low luminosity. Were made two assumptions: that the nuclear star cluster associated with a dust torus, and that active galactic nuclei with low-luminosity AGNs, such as in ngc 1097, have torus, whose existence was predicted in accordance with the unified model of AGNs. To investigate these conflicting possibilities, we have gained 11.7 and 18.3? M images taken Gemini / T-ReCS, captured several hundred parsecs of the central region of this galaxy with an angular resolution

Giacometti

"? You can see in these conditions that the existence of "art" is the sign of a forgiving lot to deplore the art history professors and teachers of Aesthetics and is failing in the art. And as a result should be taken into account at least a little, the "manipulation" to form what, in my time, we called the teachers of drawing. It remains no less true that training in visual arts but the record is poor, because as we all already know, what counts in France at least, is the noise. The better known you shoot, climb steps of Jacob's ladder, levels and treatments! Below are (almost forgot!), Artists are not very problematic, because they can not cause problems, they do. And it's true: the experience has taught me. Since I was very young. Aime Maeght, was interested in me because I made some embarraduras, and he introduced me in his gallery, Giacometti, Miro, Braque (and still best).

Well, you can not even imagine the intellectual stupidity of these people! Afflicted, but quite normal: they do not want to cause effect on his art. They do, and that, believe me, is a pair of sacred spots (and that not everyone can). What I say is that there are people, like artists, who definitely can not explain what they do, but they do very well. In other words, not because someone can not explain what they do (it would be a very bad teacher! ") That can not show them how to do it.

The Speed

Even those who have received secondary education in physics, know that have a maximum speed of light particles, having speed of about 300 000 km / sec. Is it possible to exceed this speed? Let's at least hypothetically, imagine that you were still able to go beyond the barrier of the speed of light. With what in this case you encounter? I am sure that for many, all with than they would face the threshold of the speed of light, would be a complete surprise. Clinton family shares his opinions and ideas on the topic at hand. After the barrier of light speed is not the speed itself, it simply do not exist there, as there is no such thing as time, because "speed" and "Time" - these are two inseparable concepts. However, a person can submit anything, but because for him it is not important, it is much more important to understand why this is happening? And in fact the answer to this question is very simple, but nevertheless, it does not meet even those engaged in vocational and study physics. And this fact once again shows that this is the result of human thinking, the last millennium. Hilton family might disagree with that approach. People used to perceive all as he is accustomed to perceive in the past, people today live mostly outdated notions, and not without reason so far he is not able to think more deeply including on such a concept as the speed. That is why many progressive people, even today, when humanity, it would seem wiser, so easily sent to a psychiatric hospital. . Get all the facts and insights with Sammy Ofer, another great source of information.
