Twenty-three new records of mantodea (Insecta) from some states of India
No full textPhotography of mantises in their natural habitat clearly indicates the presence of a good number of species in our country. The study disclosed new records of 23 species of mantises from different forests and rural greens of India. Photographs are also provided. All photographs, unless specified otherwise, are by Geetha Iyer. None of the mantises were collected
Unraveling the complexity – Insights and interventions of refractory vernal keratoconjunctivitis
No full textVernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is a chronic severe ocular allergic inflammation mostly observed in children and young adults. The ocular manifestations are the expression of multifactorial immune mechanisms that generally have a good prognosis, however long-term inflammation may remarkably reduce the visual function due to complications and poor therapeutic responses. Lack of responsiveness to a drug or treatment is relatively common in VKC and it is not only due to corneal involvement, which is considered the main sign of severity. The concept of refractory may be relative to multiple factors including the clinical condition, systemic co-morbidities, previous or concomitant drugs or regiments, compliance, patient's psychological condition or expectations, type of exposome and environmental conditions, doctor's experience and expectations, or timing of clinical evaluation. In this narrative review, the authors propose a definition of refractory VKC based on revised literature and clinical experience and consider potential new treatments for refractory patients and surgical management in case of complications
What Is a Healthy Forest? A Supplement to Florida Project Learning Tree
No full textThere is no question that forests provide important ecological services and economic resources to Floridians. Similarly, there is no doubt that the health of our forests is at the mercy of how we manage our landscape and make decisions. The activities in this supplement, with the original PLT Guide, help our students rise to these twin challenges. This 84-page handbook was written by Sarah L. Hicks, Martha C. Monroe, Geetha S. Iyer, and Jason A. Smith, and published by the UF Department of School of Forest Resources and Conservation, July 2011.

Beyond the Trees: A Systems Approach to Understanding Forest Health in the Southeastern United States
No full textForest health is an important topic for biology, agriculture, current issues, and environmental science classes. But conversations with educators suggested that they were not equipped to teach about it given their existing curricula. This 79-page educator guide includes six activities designed to help learners consider forest health from various viewpoints; understand interrelationships and feedback mechanisms in a forest system; visualize spatial and temporal mechanisms of forest system functions; appreciate the variety of threats to forest health; and consider their role as future forest stewards. Written by Geetha S. Iyer, Martha M. Monroe, and Jason A. Smith, and published by the UF Department of School of Forest Resources and Conservation, July 2011.

Aflame ::learning from silence /
No full text"From the bestselling author of The Art of Stillness, a revelatory exploration of the abiding clarity and calm to be found in quiet retreat. Pico Iyer has made more than 100 retreats over the past three decades to a small Benedictine hermitage, high above the sea in Big Sur, California. He's not a Christian-or a member of any religious group-but his life has been transformed by these periods of time spent in silence. That silence reminds him of what is essential and awakens a joy that nothing can efface. It's not just freedom from distraction and noise and rush: it's a reminder of some deeper truths he misplaced along the way. In Aflame, Iyer connects with inner stillness and joy in his many seasons at the monastery, even as his life is going through constant change: a house burns down, a parent dies, a daughter is diagnosed with cancer. He shares the revelations he experiences, alongside wisdom from other non-monastics who have learned from adversity and inwardness. And most profoundly, he shows how solitude can be a training in community and companionship. In so doing, he offers a unique outsider's view of monastic life-and of a group of selfless souls who have dedicated their days to ensuring there's a space for quiet and recollection that's open to us all. Radiant, intimate and gripping, Aflame offers ageless counsel about the power of silence, and what it can teach us about how to live, how to love and, ultimately, how to die"-
