    Birds of a Feather Shop Together: Aesop's Fables for the Fashionable Set

    No full text
    This book is a delightful surprise. It takes some seventeen traditional Aesop's fables, told in the book's last pages. For each it spins out a new tale about fashion, shopping, and clothes. The watercolor (?) illustrations are splashy, colorful, and suggestive. For a taste, try A Girl with Curls (30) and Bella and the Mouse (38) for both text and illustration. The contemporary shopping stories translate the fables well. This book is worth showing off in a lecture on fables.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)First printingSandra Bar

    Join PEN Award winning author, Bil Lepp for his humorous, fictional stories of growing up in small town West Virginia. A nationally renowned storyteller and five time champion of the West Virginia Liars\u27 Contest, Bil\u27s outrageous, humorous tall-tells and witty stories have earned the appreciation of listeners of all ages and from all walks of life. Though a champion liar, his stories often contain morsels of truth which shed light on universal themes. Lepp explains that while his stories may not be completely true, they are always honest

    Transdisciplinary Engineering Research Challenges

    Transdisciplinary research (TDR) has been the subject of discourse in the past few decades, but has not been studied much in the context of engineering problems. Many engineering problems can be characterized as ill-defined, like open innovation, adoption of new technology, business development, and the adoption of the Industry 4.0 concept. Transdisciplinary engineering research (TDER) is also performed in large projects by multi-disciplinary teams, as in TDR projects, including stakeholders and people from practice. Such projects may last long, often years. In such large projects, the involved disciplines should include both engineering disciplines as well as disciplines from social sciences. In this paper we address the challenges that exist in adopting a TDER approach. Universities need to prepare students to work in TDER projects. We discuss the current situation in transdisciplinary engineering education (TDEE) and identify challenges that need to be addressed for including TDEE in curricula. The paper ends with a summary and ideas for further research

    Transdisciplinary systems engineering: Implications, challenges and research agenda

    No full text
    Transdisciplinary processes have been the subject of research since several decades already. Transdisciplinary processes are aimed at solving ill-defined and socially relevant problems. Many researchers have studied transdisciplinary processes and have tried to understand the essentials of transdisciplinarity. Many engineering problems can be characterised as ill-defined and socially relevant, too. Although transdisciplinary engineering cannot widely be found in the literature yet, a transdisciplinary approach is deemed relevant for many engineering problems. With this paper we aim to present an overview of the literature on research into transdisciplinary processes and investigate the relevance of a transdisciplinary approach in engineering domains. After a brief description of past research on transdisciplinarity, implications for engineering research, engineering practice, and engineering education are identified. In all three areas, the current situation is described, while challenges are identified that still exist. The paper ends with a research agenda for transdisciplinary engineering

    Özbay, Nurgül (Bilecik, Author) Yargıç, Adife Şeyda (Bilecik, Author) Şahin, Rahmiye Zerrin Yarbay (Bilecik, Author) Yaman, Elif (Bilecik, Author)The present study is aimed to investigate thermal and catalytic pyrolysis of banana peel. In the first part of the study, banana peel was pyrolyzed by varying the temperatures between 400 and 700 degrees C. It was seen that higher temperature caused in lower bio-oil and bio-char yields but higher gas yields and optimum temperature was determined as 550 degrees C. In the second part, the mesoporous material Al-SBA-15 with the typical hexagonal arrangement of SBA-15 verified via XRD possesses Lewis and Bronsted acid sites (NI-13-TPD), large surface area and wide pore diameter (N-2 physisorption) was able to catalyzing of banana peel biomass resulting in bio-oil yields of 18-28% with varying catalyst/biomass ratios (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 wt%). The highest bio-oil yield from the catalytic pyrolysis was 18.64% with 15 wt% catalyst/biomass ratios. The composition and physical properties of the bio-oils were reported that the catalyst increased oxygen removal from the bio-oil and also developed the production of desirable products like phenolics and aromatic compounds. The results confirmed the catalytic pyrolysis of banana peel was well related to the textural properties of catalysts. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd.

    Da'wah bil hal in humanity is a form of worship in Islam with a real amaliyah form that prioritizes human values in its implementation. These real amaliyah activities need to be investigated in depth by analyzing communication in the culture of humanitarian organizations, where in this study a case study of the Bengkulu Province PMI was taken. To see how the characteristics of da'wah bil hal in humanity as a manifestation of the ideals of peace, which is the image of Islam, namely a religion that is rahmatan lil alamin. Thus, the formulation of the problem in this thesis is how da'wah bil hal in humanity is implemented by the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) of Bengkulu Province, and how communication in the organizational culture of the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) of Bengkulu Province expresses human values. In this study, the author uses a qualitative research type that is carried out in terms of data quality, not quantity. then the author went down directly to research the spaciousness in obtaining accurate and comprehensive data, related to da'wah bil hal in humanity implemented by PMI Bengkulu Province. Determination of the subject using Snawball sampling and data collection techniques using interviews, observation and documentation. The results of the first research, da'wah bil hal in humanity based on the implementation of PMI Bengkulu Province is an effort to increase internal capacity to provide good benefits for those in need. Second, the communication process in the organizational culture of PMI Bengkulu Province prioritizes family values and harmony. Based on the two research results, the characteristics of da'wah bil hal in humanity are raised, which prioritizes the value of peace
