No full textDi cosa avevano paura: La storia del cimitero infantile tardo romano di Poggio Gramignano - Lugnano in Teverina di David Soren, Delaney Fisher, Roberto Montagnetti e Jordan Wilson racconta dell'epidemia che si ritiene fosse malaria da Plasmodium falciparum, diffusasi probabilmente lungo il fiume Tevere intorno al 450 d.C., penetrata in quest’area a causa del commercio con il Nord Africa di beni come il vino trasportato attraverso grandi anfore. L'epidemia causò aborti spontanei, neonati nati morti e decessi di bambini, per un totale di circa 62 individui. Essa generò anche un'immensa paura tra la popolazione di questa comunità. Gli infanti furono trovati con pietre conficcate nelle cavità orali e grandi pietre e altri materiali da costruzione posizionate su mani e piedi per impedire ai morti di risorgere e diventare revenant. Cuccioli di cane di circa 5-6 mesi furono anch'essi sacrificati, con uno addirittura tagliato in due, e associati alle sepolture dei bambini insieme ad altri reperti come: grandi calderoni di bronzo, una bambola d'osso senza braccia e gambe, resti di caprifoglio bruciato, un artiglio di corvo, parte di un portalucerne e altri oggetti. Gli scavi, eseguiti essenzialmente sotto la direzione dei principali autori, iniziati nel 1987 con il Dr. Soren e tuttora in corso, hanno portato alla luce la più grande villa romana finora scoperta in Umbria, a nord di Roma e a sud di Siena. Sebbene la società tardo romana di quel periodo fosse presumibilmente già convertita al cristianesimo, gli scavi non hanno trovato alcuna testimonianza della professione di tale fede sul sito e si crede che, per far fronte alle misteriose morti che stavano flagellando la comunità, si fece ricorso a pratiche e culti precedenti, soprattutto l’utilizzo di talismani per scongiurare il male

Labeling Biochar Products
No full textKelpie Wilson is a writer and a mechanical engineer and the principal consultant at Wilson Biochar Associates. She has worked in the biochar field since 2007 as a project developer and writer for the International Biochar Initiative and as an independent consultant. She wrote a regular column as the environmental editor at Truthout.org from 2004-2008 and does freelance writing assignments for consumer and industry magazines and online publications. Kelpie has worked in the solar PV industry and for a startup doing R&D on Stirling cycle engines and has also been a tree hugger, an auto mechanic and a science fiction author. She has been living off-grid in the Oregon woods for 23 years, getting almost all of my power from solar PV and small hydro. Her favorite activity is making biochar at home and using it in the garden.
David Yarrow has dedicated his life to preparing humanity for confrontation with the finite limits of nature on a small planet. Through the 1970's, David started a variety of community food projects, and became involved in regional food and farm issues. In 1976, he helped start what became On the Rise whole grain bakery in downtown Syracuse, and he helped create Common Place Community Land Trust, an ecological community on 432 acres near Truxton, NY. After Three Mile Island David initiated statewide food and farm activism, including incorporating the NYS Coalition for Local Self Reliance, NYS Food Policy Council and Onondaga County Food System Council. In 1983 David organized the Founding Members meeting of the New York chapter of the Northeast Organic Farming Association (NOFA), initiated on-farm education workshops, started the NOFA-NY Organic Farm Certification program, wrote the first Certification Standards for NY, and helped organize the Organic Foods Production Association of North America (OFPANA) and the Organic Crop Improvement Association (OCIA).
Commercial biochar business founder and organic farm owner with several years refining processes to make high-quality biochar for agriculture and environmental remediation. Active participant in organizations for the advancement of biochar in agriculture horticulture, nursery, composting and environmental solutions. In addition to doing independent trails in the effectiveness of biochars on her own organic farm, she also works with several universities and environmental firms in biochar research.Making Claims for Biochar: Kelpie Wilson Cool Foods: David Yarrow, KAW Valley Biochar OMRI Certification: Renel Anderson, Black Owl Biocha
General bounds on the Wilson-Dirac operator
No full textLower bounds on the magnitude of the spectrum of the Hermitian Wilson-Dirac operator H(m) have previously been derived for 0<m<2 when the lattice gauge field satisfies a certain smoothness condition. In this paper lower bounds are derived for 2p-2<m<2p for general p=1,2,…,d where d is the spacetime dimension. The bounds can alternatively be viewed as localization bounds on the real spectrum of the usual Wilson-Dirac operator. They are needed for the rigorous evaluation of the classical continuum limit of the axial anomaly and the index of the overlap Dirac operator at general values of m, and provide information on the topological phase structure of overlap fermions. They are also useful for understanding the instanton size dependence of the real spectrum of the Wilson-Dirac operator in an instanton background.David H. Adam
