You now have completed a square "bare face" for the mouse using the wool alone, measuring 5 stitches wide by 5 rows deep. Row 3: K 5 using the worsted alone, then pick up and join the Fun Fur to knit the remaining stitches (K 15). Then drop the Fun Fur yarn, and K 5 using the worsted alone. Row 2: K 15 continuing to hold the worsted & Fun Fur yarns together. When finished, you should have 20 stitches on your needle. Join the Fun Fur yarn by twisting it around the worsted yarn, leaving a short tail to be woven in later, and continue to CO 15 more stitches. Row 1: Using your favorite cast-on method and leaving an 8-inch tail for later seaming, CO 5 stitches with the worsted wool yarn. Please note that I count the cast-on row as Row 1. Knitting the Mouse If you like, refer to my chart shown in SLIDE 3 while following these simple instructions. PATTERN STITCH: Garter (knit all rows) GAUGE: Doesn't matter! Isn't that great? Bigger yarn & needles will give you a bigger mouse, smaller yarn & needles will give you a smaller mouse. > Darning needle for sewing up seams & stitching face. I like washable polyfill, but you can use cotton balls or nylon stockings or whatever you have on hand. > Scrap yarn, black or brown, to embroider nose & eyes, about 12 - 14 inches. > Straight knitting needles, US size 8 or whatever size works best with your yarn. In my project, I used Violet (Color #191). > Scrap Lion Brand in complementary color, about 2 yards. In my project, I used an anonymous bit of lavender wool, shown in SLIDE 2. ![]() When you've finished felting & measuring for your project, recycle the gauge swatch into an instant catnip mouse toy! KNITTING A BETTER MOUSE TOY MATERIALS -> Scrap 100% wool or other feltable yarn, worsted weight, about 2 yards. But here's the really brilliant part: next time you have to knit a gauge swatch for felting, just knit a tail onto it as I describe here. and to save time & energy, you can felt it with other, bigger projects you have on hand. And, voila! A re-designed catnip mouse, complete with sturdy tail! My variation on the Lion Brand Catnip Mouse pattern is as easy and quick to knit as the original, a good little stash-buster. And I decided that I'd combine worsted wool yarn with the Fun Fur, then felt the mouse to make sure the Fun Fur strands stayed put. In my modified mouse design, the tail is knit as part of the body, rather than tied on like a string. Believing my cats would enjoy the mouse toy more with a tail than without, I took a different approach. ![]() "yarn is not good for a cat's tummy." That's certainly true, and valuable advice. ![]() The pattern clearly warns that you should omit the tail if you can't supervise the play period. While I particularly liked the free downloadable Lion Brand Catnip Mouse pattern knit with Lion Brand, I am pathologically incapable of knitting a pattern exactly as written! In this case, the Lion Brand mouse has a skinny yarn tail that could be pulled off and swallowed by a feckless cat. So I decided to knit a catnip mouse toy for my darling cats. I needed something quick & easy to whip up, preferably from my existing stash. Last week I found myself dangling between major knitting projects, and not yet in the mood to start a new one.

![]() So, in June of 1950, Keeshan was fired, and a new Clarabell (Gil Lamb) was hired to replace him. There were other reasons as well some parents complained that the seltzer chases were getting the children too excited just before dinner - and Clarabell was the scapegoat. Buffallo Bob Smith was a musically-inclined person, and wanted that for the Howdy Doody show as well - but Keeshan couldn’t play an instrument, and seemingly couldn’t learn. Accounts of the creation of the character differ, but what is not contested is that Bob Keeshan became Clarabell Hornblower, a silent Auguste clown who communicated via twin bicycle horns mounted on a box - and inside that box was a bottle of Seltzer water, that Clarabell was swift to use on numerous cast members, but most commonly “Buffalo Bob” Smith, followed by a comedy chase through the studio.īob Keeshan continued playing Clarabell until 1950, when he was fired - for the first time. ![]() So, it was shortly afterward that Bob Keeshan become a clown on camera for the first time. However, a producer saw Keeshan on tape, and was upset at having a “normal” person on camera, since the show was supposedly a circus. On Howdy Doody, Bob Keeshan’s tasks were initially fairly menial - handing out prizes to children (the “Peanut Gallery”), and quieting the youngsters when they weren’t supposed to be heard. Bob Keeshan followed along, having graduated from a page to a low-level employee at NBC, still working for Bob Smith.ĭue to a blizzard, Keeshan missed the first filming of Puppet Playhouse - but most other people didn’t the children’s show set viewership records, and was quickly expanded, and renamed after the lead puppet character - The Howdy Doody Show. With the advent of television, NBC asked him to copy his children’s program to a new TV show, Puppet Playhouse. After the war ended, Bob returned to NBC to finish his time as a page, working for Bob Smith during the day, and attending college at night - he was planning to become a lawyer.īob Smith was a popular radio personality of the day, doing both a program from adults and a morning program for children. Shortly before his 18th birthday, Bob joined the Marines, and underwent basic training. Before Bob could discover this for himself, World War II interrupted. A page was a low-level gopher, giving an individual an “in” at NBC, and giving them time to find where, if anywhere, they belonged at NBC. Instead, in his 18th year, he began working for NBC in their page program. His mother died when Bob was only 15, and this deeply impacted him - without the influence of a school guidance counselor, Bob would have stayed mired in his grief. ![]() He had a happy childhood, living with his immigrant father, mother, younger sister and two older brothers. Bob was born in Long Island, but moved to Forest Hills, NY shortly after his birth. Better known to millions of viewers as the original Captain Kangaroo, Long Island native Bob Keeshan first came to national prominence as Clarabell the Clown on the Howdy Doody TV show (1947 – 1952). ![]() This paper addresses these problems, first by outlining an evolutionary theory of human warfare, and second by investigating the veracity of four common claims made against the use of evolutionary theory for explaining warfare. The second is that there is ambiguity about how to interpret existing evidence relating to the evolution of warfare. ![]() ![]() One is that there is ambiguity about how to build an evolutionary theory of human warfare. The use of evolutionary theory for explaining human warfare is an expanding area of inquiry, but it remains obstructed by two important hurdles. And the question of definitions must be placed in its proper scope – as a methodological, rather than ontological, consideration. Entire disciplines thrive on their ability to successfully infer and model the unobserved past based on imperfect historical, geological and archaeological evidence. knowledge of ancestral phenomena and consensus on definitions) are not insurmountable. Although this is a rather pessimistic view, I establish it at the forefront of this chapter since my argument will be that these hurdles (e.g. Given these hurdles, it would seem that an investigation into the evolutionary origins of human warfare is destined merely to perpetuate academic stalemates, in which old arguments are continuously repackaged with each new discovery of a mass grave or ‘peaceful’ society. Beyond an agreement that warfare is something more than violence between two individuals, there is little consensus on the proper scope of our main unit of analysis. Second, we do not agree on what warfare is or how to unambiguously distinguish it from other forms of violence. First, the archaeological record of warfare is incomplete. Despite the fact that scientific interest in these questions is perhaps broader and more methodologically sophisticated than ever, consensus on these questions remains elusive for at least two reasons. Common questions in this endeavour are: How far back into human evolution and history do we find evidence of warfare? How frequent was warfare in any given historical period? How lethal was warfare? In short, scholarship on the evolution and history of warfare has focused on questions of origins, frequency, and intensity. The evolution and history of warfare has been investigated by philosophers, historians, practitioners, social scientists and life scientists. ![]() Verify that you have installed all the required system requirements, as mentioned at System requirements section.

It can be compressed to about 10 % of its original volume and will subsequently expand back to nearly its original shape. However, carbon nanotube aerogel (CNT aerogel), a self-standing structure of 3-D network of long CNTs, produced by floating catalyst chemical vapour. The material has high mechanical flexibility. The high electrical conductivity of the aerogel also suggests the possibility of electronic applications. The extraordinary heat- and fire-resistence of this material are particularaly noteworthy: repeated treatment with the flame of a torch caused no changes in its form or inner three-dimensional pore structure. The absorbed substances can easily be removed from the gel through distillation or combustion, allowing the gel to be used again. This makes the new aerogel an ideal candidate for cleaning up oil spills or sucking up nonpolar industrial pollutants. It draws oil out of an oil/water mixture with high efficiency and selectivity, leaving behind pure water. Carbon aerogels are nanostructured porous carbonaceous materials with high specific surface areas that may exceed 1000 m 2 g 1 and relatively low electric resistance of about 8.7 S cm 1. Because it is porous and highly hydrophobic, it can adsorb organic solvents and oils-up to 106 to 312 times its own weight. The result is a black, ultralight, mechanically stable aerogel. The density decreases but the network structure remains intact. This converts the cellulose into graphitic carbon. Carbon-based nanomaterials are ushering in the 'new carbon age' with carbon nanotubes, nanoporous carbons, and graphene nanosheets that will prove necessary to provide sustainable energy applications that lessen our dependence on fossil fuels. These were freeze-dried and then pyrolyzed at 1300 ☌ under argon. Nanomaterials that are emerging out of cutting edge nanotechnology research are a key component for an energy revolution. The researchers trimmed off small pieces of the tangled cellulose nanofibers. This material can easily be produced on an industrial scale through microbial fermentation. They selected bacterial cellulose, a commonly used, inexepensive, nontoxic form of biomass consisting of a tangled network of cellulose nanofibers. However, there is still no simple, industrially and environmentally friendly method for the production of these attractive lightweights.Ī team led by Shu-Hong Yu at the Hefei National Laboratory for Physical Sciences at Micrscale (HFNL), Univeristy of Science and Technology of China is pursuing their production from biomass. They could be used as catalyst supports, electrodes for supercapacitors, adsorbents, and gas sensors, as well as for synthetic muscles. ![]() Their unique properties-low density, highy porosity, high specific surface, and high electrical conductivity-make carbon aerogels promising new materials. Their fibrous lightweights can “suck” organic contaminants from polluted water and could possibly be used as pressure sensors. Their method begins with bacterial cellulose as an inexpensive starting material. Chinese scientists have now introduced a simple technique for the production of these ultralight, flexible, fire-resistant aerogels. A graphene-carbon nanotube hybrid magnetic polyvinyl alcohol aerogel. They can absorb vast amounts of oil or organic compounds, yet they are nearly as light as air: highly porous solids made of a three-dimensional network of carbon nanotubes. carbon nanotubes, followed by co-precipitation under basic conditions. ![]() He writes about missing his twin when his twin, Jordan, gets a girlfriend about getting in trouble when he hits Jordan in the face with a basketball and about watching his father as his heart fails. ![]() Basketball player and twin Josh narrates his life in quarters, just like the game he plays. It’s an honest, eye-opening story that reveals the plight of many homeless children in India and yet, finds a way to be hopeful, too.īecause this is written in verse, this is a fast read but packs a big punch. Ultimately, it is the kindness of her new “family” that helps her to see more than misery in the world. And what happens next almost destroys Viji. Their lives are hard but made easier by the two boys, their new “brothers.” When Rukku gets a terrible cough and fever, so does one of the brothers. Viji tells how the two of them ran away from an abusive father to the big city where they met two friendly brothers and lived with them under a bridge, scrabbling to survive by collecting trash. Set in India, Viji writes this story as letters to you, her little sister Rukku who has intellectual disabilities. Stunning writing with a loveable main character makes this a middle grade book that you won’t want to miss. Ultimately, Shoshana learns (with a little help from her sister Libke) to be proud of being Jewish, even when others don’t accept her. And Shoshana wants to fit in so much that she agrees to participate in the Christmas activities. Shoshana, her mom, and her siblings flee Jewish persecution in Ukraine in 1905 for North Dakota to a mud house on the plains with her father and brother. But being Jewish isn’t always accepted, even in this new country. Fortunately, a persistent classmate Violet Rey (also his crush) helps Charlie follow the clues to find out what happened to his parents - and discover what it has to do with La Mano Peluda and the prophesied Morphling who is meant to save the world.
