Michael and Susannah Newbold house
No full textHome on Georgetown-Wrightstown Rd., Mansfield Twp. 1736. N. M. S. (Newbold, Michael, Susannah) in patterned brick. This is the oldest standing of several homestead properties built by the Newbold family in the vicinity. Glazed bricks with extended lines feature this old but very well preserved house which is still in ownership by descendants of the Newbold family. Frame addition is also ancient. Interior has bits of ancient fittings
Caleb and Mary Newbold house
No full textN. C. M. (Newbold, Caleb, Mary), 1764. Located 1/4 mile south of Georgetown, Mansfield Twp., this is another fine specimen of Newbold pioneer houses. It was owned by Mrs. John Hutchison, a descendant of the builder, in 1983. Paint covers the glazed brick ornamentation of the walls but the projecting brick lines and pent roof typify the architecture of the day. Interior has been somewhat modernized
Influence of corrugated boundary hydrodynamics on the swimming performance and behaviour of juvenile common carp (Cyprinus carpio)
No full textTo facilitate the upstream passage of small fish, corrugated culverts are often preferred over smooth pipes, due to the lower edge and mean cross sectional water velocities created. This benefit could be lost if greater intensities of turbulence induced by wall roughness cause instability and increase the energetic expense of fish locomotion. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) swimming performance and behaviour were evaluated in a flume using four wall roughness treatments: smooth (control), small (SC), medium (MC), and large (LC) corrugations, dependent on corrugation wavelength and amplitude. Individual fish (n = 128, mean ± S.D. total length [TL] = 86 ± 8 mm) swam at a mid-channel velocity of 0.5 m s?1 for 30 min or until fatigue. Swimming performance was quantified by: (a) success (completion of 30 min trial) or failure; and (b) the time to fatigue (endurance) of those that failed. To evaluate behaviour, fish head positions were tracked manually every second. Occupancy of the area within the MC and LC troughs (concave area where velocity was lowest) was recorded and the relationships between trough occupation and (i) TL and (ii) success tested. Differences were tested for between successful and failed individuals, and among treatments, for the following dependent variables: the total distance moved, the mean distance from the flume wall occupied (FishD), and mean velocity (FishU) and turbulent kinetic energy (FishTKE) experienced. Treatment did not influence frequency of success (38–58% per treatment) or time to fatigue. During the MC and LC treatments, troughs were occupied for part of the trial by 56 and 55% of individuals, respectively. Trough occupation was independent of TL in both treatments, and more common for successful fish than failures in the LC treatment. For successful fish, the total distance moved did not differ among treatments. Successful FishD varied among treatments and was higher for the LC (mean ± S.E. = 93.2 ± 22.3 mm) than the SC (33.5 ± 2.8 mm) treatment. Despite the availability of lower velocity areas, median successful FishU was higher in the LC treatment (0.51 m s?1) than in any other (median = 0.47 m s?1, 0.44 m s?1 and 0.47 m s?1 in the MC, SC, and control treatments, respectively). Treatment did not influence successful FishTKE which was consistently low (median = 5.3–7.7 J m?3 per treatment). Although occupation of the MC and LC troughs occurred, many individuals spent little time here, and areas with lower TKE were often occupied. Under the experimental conditions created, this study does not support the assumption that low velocity areas created by wall corrugations will improve culvert passage

Framing the Framework: Four Decades of Change in Language Teaching (and the Long March of ELF)
No full textIn this paper I reflect on changes in language use over more than four decades, which have prompted a revised (2018) version of the Common European Framework, the ‘Companion Volume’. The appearance of the Council of Europe’s ‘threshold level’ in 1976, later to take its place as B1 in the six-level CEFR, heralded a new attention to communication for language teaching professionals. The age of audio-lingualism was past, giving way to the communicative revolution, and its attention to ‘real language’, and ‘authentic materials’.
In the revised Framework this approach has shifted to reflect changes in lifestyles and technological progress in the new millennium. No longer is the focus on preparing learners to communicate with native speakers, but on plurilingualism and inclusion; the single scale of descriptors for phonology has been replaced by three scales, none of which refer to proximity to a native speaker accent; and, perhaps most significantly, there are completely new scales for online interaction. I shall take a critical look at these changes and their implications for teachers: four decades of change which have provided the backdrop to Carmel’s career at the forefront of language teaching research
A well-conserved Plasmodium falciparum var gene shows an unusual stage-specific transcript pattern
No full textThe var multicopy gene family encodes Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) variant antigens, which, through their ability to adhere to a variety of host receptors, are thought to be important virulence factors. The predominant expression of a single cytoadherent PfEMP1 type on an infected red blood cell, and the switching between different PfEMP1 types to evade host protective antibody responses, are processes thought to be controlled at the transcriptional level. Contradictory data have been published on the timing of var gene transcription. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) data suggested that transcription of the predominant var gene occurs in the later (pigmented trophozoite) stages, whereas Northern blot data indicated such transcripts only in early (ring) stages. We investigated this discrepancy by Northern blot, with probes covering a diverse var gene repertoire. We confirm that almost all var transcript types were detected only in ring stages. However, one type, the well-conserved varCSA transcript, was present constitutively in different laboratory parasites and does not appear to undergo antigenic variation. Although varCSA has been shown to encode a chondroitin sulphate A (CSA)-binding PfEMP1, we find that the presence of full-length varCSA transcripts does not correlate with the CSA-binding phenotype
Corner and sloped culvert baffles improve the upstream passage of adult European eels (Anguilla anguilla)
No full textInstallation of baffles intended to improve fish passage through culverts can reduce discharge capacity and trap debris, increasing flood risk. A sloping upstream face may reduce this risk, but new designs must be tested for fish passage efficiency. The European eel (Anguilla anguilla) is a critically endangered species, yet the suitability of even common baffle types to aid upstream movement has not been tested. This study compared the water depth, velocity, turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), and upstream passage performance of adult yellow-phase eels, between three 6 m long culvert models: smooth and unmodified (control); containing corner baffles (treatment 1); and with prototype sloped baffles installed (treatment 2). Passage of individual fish was assessed during 25 one-hour trials per model. Performance was quantified as entrance efficiency, number of entries per fish, passage efficiency, and overall efficiency. Total and passage delay, and successful passage time were also evaluated. Despite some individuals being able to swim against unexpectedly high water velocities (>1.5 m s?1 for 4 m), passage performance in the control was poor, with an overall efficiency of 28%. Compared to the control, both treatments increased the mean centreline water depth by approximately 0.11 m, created heterogeneous flow conditions with low velocity resting areas, and reduced maximum velocities. As a result, entrance rate and all efficiency parameters were higher for the treatments than for the control (overall efficiency = 84%), despite longer passage delay. The TKE was slightly higher in treatment 2 than 1, but there was no difference in water depth or overall efficiency. The findings show that both corner and sloped baffles can mitigate for impeded upstream adult eel movement. The extent to which the sloping upstream face will improve debris transport should be explored further
