A logitudinal study is one in which the participants of the study, or the subjects, are tracked for a long period of time, usually years. Instances in which a logitudinal design can be most helpful include studying the effects of child abuse, as was the case in one article we read in class at the beginning of the fall term. Logitudinal studies have the obvious benefit in being most helpful in gaging behaviors and mindsets as they develop over time, but that same benefit can pose a double edged sword. Logitudinal studies take a long time to conduct, and scientists may not have the luxury of time or money for such an endeavor at their disposal.

Dieter Matthaei (born February 1, 1949) is a German radiologist.

Matthaei studied physics and medicine at the universities of Berlin and Göttingen. In 1977, he received his doctorate from the Georg-August-University of Göttingen. He was from 1983 to 1987 a research associate at the Max-Planck-Institut für biophysikalische Chemie in Göttingen and is now medical specialist for internal medicine in Göttingen.

Matthaei worked at the Georg-August-University of Göttingen and at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear magnetic resonance in biological systems. He was looking for a scientific development of NMR techniques (NMR: magnetic resonance) based imaging magnetic resonance imagery. With Axel Haase and Jens Frahm he succeeded in 1985 with the invention of rapid image proceedings FLASH MRI (fast low angle shot) a revolutionary breakthrough that allows the use of MRI imaging for clinical diagnosis. It enabled the first real coherent representation of body functions.

He is the founder and editor of MAGMA.

Comment: Please could you clarify which criteria in wp:PROF this person meets? Thank you. MSGJ (talk) 10:52, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

If the above information is verifiable, this person is utterly notable per WP:PROF because 1. he seems a well-known expert in field of MR; 2. he is a co-inventor of FLASH MRI, a notable discovery used for clinical diagnosis like obtaining cardiac images or measuring blood flow. However, most of sources in which he was mentioned are in German, so we need help from a translator. @pple complain 13:22, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Vladimir Petrovich Semynozhenko (born June 9, 1950) is a PhD, Doctor of Sciences, and a Member of the Board of the National Academy of Sciences. He serves as the Chair of the Parliament Committee on Sciences and Technology and is the author of Ukrainian Legislation on Technology Parks. Mr. Semynozhenko has held the positions of Vice Premier Minister of Ukraine (1999, 2001-2002) and Head of the Association of Ukrainian Scientists. In addition, he created and served as the Head of the Ministry of Sciences and Technologies of Ukraine (1996 - 1998) and has also led numerous technology and innovation Committees at the Cabinet of Ministers. He is a famous physicist, scientist, politician and public figure.

[edit] Education

Semynozhenko graduated with honors in 1967 from the Magnet School specializing in physics and mathematics. He later graduated from Kharkiv State University’s School of Physics and Technology in 1972. In 1974, Semynozhenko defended his Ph.D. dissertation, and in 1984 acquired his Doctorate in physics and mathematics. In 1988 he became a Professor and in 1992 he was named the Academician of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.

[edit] Scientific work

Mr. Vladimir Semynozhenko is a world-renowned scholar, a Board Member for the Academy of Sciences, a Professor and author of more than 500 widely distributed scientific papers and books, and the holder of more than 80 patents.

For more than 10 years of his life (from 1975 to 1985) he was devoted to the Boris Verkin Institute for Low Temperature Physics and Engineering of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. Semynozhenko became the Head of the Ukraine State Scientific Institution “Institute for Mono Crystals” of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in 1985. This Institution was later transformed into one of the first technology parks in Ukraine.

Semynozhenko is a dedicated supporter of young and promising scientists and innovators. Thus, he was one of the first public figures to develop a system of state grants for young, talented scientists.

Since 2006 has served as the Head of the Board of Directors for the Scientific Intersectorial Corporation “New Technologies and Materials”. During his work in Parliament he led the Intersectorial Committee for Intellectual Property Management.

Semynozhenko also took the lead at the Ukrainian Scientific Association. This is the non-government organization which provides consistent assistance to scientific, technical and innovative activity in Ukraine. For his work, he was awarded a government medal for his vision and advancement of the Ukrainian scientific community.

Semynozhenko became the head of the national scientific-technical program “The Optoelectronic Technologies Development in Ukraine in 2005-2007”.

Mr. Semynozhenko believes the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, as the leading Ukrainian science and technology community, is of vital strategic value to its people. As such, he feels it should be integral part of the Ukrainian government. His belief is that The Academy of Sciences of Ukraine should be directly involved in forming the political vision, and in leading the development of, the scientific community within Ukraine.

He is the Editor-in-chief of "Problems of Science" and "Functional Materials" magazines, and a member of the editorial boards of several scientific editions. Among these is the theoretical and practical magazine of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine named “Strategic Panorama”.

[edit] Innovations

Mr. Vladimir Semynozhenko has long been a champion of innovation and invention in Ukraine and has worked vigorously to develop the political climate, legal structure and business environment that Ukraine needs to foster growth. Most notably, Vladimir authored and implemented "The Law for Special Conditions for Innovation Activity in Technology Parks (1999)". This law, targeting "brain drain" in Ukraine, has helped facilitate significant partnerships and business opportunities between blue chip western companies and the incredible talent pool available in Ukraine. Semynozhenko's numerous activities have led to the emergence of Ukraine as one of the world's leading locations for technology and engineering innovation. Throughout his considerable career, Semynozhenko has served as the Minister for Science and Technology of Ukraine (1996-1998), the Vice Prime Minister of Ukraine, and as the Science and Technology Advisor to the President of Ukraine (1999, 2001-2002, 2003-2005). In 2006, he was extended the honor of being named the Innovation Advisor to the Prime Minister of Ukraine. That same year, he became the President of the Civic and Political Leaders' Association, also known as the "Ukrainian Forum". Mr. Semynozhenko firmly believes the Global Outsourcing Industry is a critical component to the development of the Ukrainian economy over the next ten years. As such, he now dedicates his time to developing this industry in Ukraine. Currently, the outsourcing industry in Ukraine is largely fragmented, underdeveloped, and with spotty support from the Ukrainian government. He uses his time and influence to lobby and partner with various government agencies to introduce Ukraine to the global market as a leader in the outsourcing industry. In fact, Mr. Semynozhenko has held industrious meetings with leading U.S. executives, such as Mr. Bill Gates and Mr. George Soros, regarding western investment and involvement in the development of the Ukrainian hi-tech industry.

[edit] Politics

During his long political career, Semynozhenko has been the head of several different parliament committees including the "Parliament Committee for Social, Science and Technology and Humanitarian Development" and the "Ukrainian Investment Fund for Social Investment, Environmental Committee". He was twice elected a Vice Prime Minister of Ukraine, and he served as the Minister for Science and Technology of Ukraine from 1996-1998. From 1999 to 2005, he served as the Science and Technology Advisor to the President of Ukraine. In 2006 he was extended the honor of being named the Innovation Advisor to the Prime Minister of Ukraine and from 1994 through 2006, he was the People’s Deputy of Ukraine. Mr. Semynozhenko firmly believes that his position in government is not nearly as important as the role he plays in, and the impact that he can have on, the future of Ukraine. Mr. Semynozhenko formed the Ministry of Science and Technology and later became a member of the committee for selecting the most valuable science and technology projects for the Cabinet of Ministers. In his public life, Semynozhenko has authored and championed many new laws that directly led to the social and economic welfare of the Ukrainian scientific community and the greater population as a whole. An independent politician, Semynozhenko maintains an opinion considered very valuable to many political leaders, and in 1998 he was awarded the Congressman of the year award. In 2006, he formed and led the political organization called the Ukrainian Forum. Its purpose is an analysis of national and political trends and their effect on both the Ukraine, and the rest of the world.

[edit] Honors and Awards

Mr. Semynozhenko was twice honored by the National Award of Ukraine in Science and Technology and is a Nuclear Physics International Award prize winner. He was awarded “For the National Service” of I, II and III degrees, by order of “Saint Volodymir the Great” of the IV degree. He was given an honorable letter of commendation by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine (the Ukrainian parliament).

For his hard work, leadership, and support of the education and scientific communities, Semynozhenko has been bestowed with the title of Honorary Professor from more than 50 world-renowned Universities including:

Ivan Franko National University of L”viv Karazin Kharkiv National University National Technical University "Kharkov Polytechnical Institute" National University “Ostroh Academy” National Mining University The Lugansk State Medical University

In 1995, the "Person of the Year" award was formed as a national program to recognize the most valuable citizens in Ukraine. These individuals were singled out as those helping to lead the development and expansion of the country's future. Mr. Semynozhenko was recognized by the program on two separate occasions, and also is a permanent member of the program committee.

In 1999 he was named an Honorary Professor of Art at Kharkov State Academy of Design and Art.

[edit] Private life

Vladimir Semynozhenko is more than just a bright politician, public figure and scientist. In his private life, he is also a talented artist and musician. At a very young age he created his first masterpiece on canvas, which leads him to view painting as much more than a hobby. Semynozhenko's paintings demonstrate the picturesque nature found in Ukraine, including many of the most beautiful places that the country has to offer. In addition to his painting, his photographs are an expression of his sense of the outer world. Also a talented musician, Semynozhenko's music expresses those things which are beyond capturing by brush or in photographs. In 1992, he became an honored member of National Artists Council of Ukraine, and in 1998 became an Honored Member (academician) of the National Academy of Art of Ukraine. His photographic masterpieces are recognized by the National Photo Artists Council of Ukraine. In 1999 he was proclaimed the Honored Professor of Art of Kharkiv State Academy of Art and Design. Today, he holds yearly exhibitions of his work and his ranks could be enumerated endlessly. The one thing can be stated for sure - he unites opposing ideas -- he is a politician, a scientist and an artist.

Color tells us about the temperature of a candle flame. The outer core of the candle flame is light blue -- 1670 K (1400 °C). That is the hottest part of the flame. The color inside the flame becomes yellow, orange and finally red. The further you reach to the center of the flame, the lower the temperature will be. The red portion is around 1070 K (800 °C). The reason there is this variation in a candle's flame color is because air convection pulls the warmer gasses upwards.

Candle flames behave differently in outer space (microgravity) than they do on Earth. The primary reason for this difference is that microgravity provides an environment that lacks buoyant convection, which normally plays an important role in maintaining and shaping a flame on Earth. In Earth's gravity, buoyant convection develops when hot, less dense combustion products rise. The flow that results draws cooler surrounding air to the base of the flame, supplying it with the oxidizer (in this case, oxygen) that the flame requires to maintain itself. Combustion products (carbon dioxide, water vapor, and soot) are carried away from the flame by the same convective flow, which is the dominant transport mechanism in the flame.

In microgravity, however, the process is not the same; there is no buoyant convection, and the transport of combustion products and oxygen occurs by the much slower process of molecular diffusion. This diffusion occurs when there is a high concentration of combustion products and a low concentration of oxygen close to the flame and a high concentration of oxygen farther away from the flame. The combustion products migrate away from the flame and the oxygen migrates toward the flame. The diffusive transport rates in microgravity are much lower than the transport rates due to natural convection in Earth's gravity. As a result, the flame will often appear to burn less vigorously than a flame on Earth, and it will assume a spherical shape that diffuses equally in all directions, rather than the more elongated shape that is characteristic of flames in Earth's gravity.

With 80 years in the travel industry, the Globus family of brands - Globus, Cosmos, Monograms and Avalon Waterways - is credited as the largest escorted tour operator in the world.^[1]

[edit] Historical Timeline

1928
Antonio Mantegazza (the eventual founder of the Globus family of brands) buys a rowboat (on credit) and begins transporting travelers across Lake Lugano, sharing stories and local insights.^[2][3][4]

1930s
Antonio Mantegazza purchases more rowboats, convincing his friends to join him, as he expands his budding travel business. Rowboats grow to motorboats and then move to land with a taxi service. Even with his growth, offering stories of the local sights to travelers remain a large part of his popularity and development plan.^[5]

Mid-1930s
Antonio Mantegazza has the good fortune to win a local sweepstakes, granting him the rights to operate a popular local route for the Swiss national postal and transportation service. He buys his first motorcoach to help, launching the modern motorcoach touring business we know today. Mantegazza calls his venture Globus Viaggi.^[6]

Late-1930s
Mantegazza grows Globus to a fleet of 12 coaches, operating local tours for European travelers in Switzerland. His company takes a brief hiatus during the World Wars.^[7][8]

Mid-1940s
Globus Viaggi acquires two competing coach companies, growing the business to a fleet of 33 coaches (the nearest competitor owns just five coaches). During this time, Mantegazza meets Werner Albek who becomes a partner, helping Globus Viaggi operate excursions to St. Moritz, Milan, Venice, Rome and other popular European destinations.^[9]

Early-1950s
The Globus portfolio expands, including Switzerland, Italy, the French Riviera, Scandinavia, Holland, Belgium and England. During these years, Globus launches the first "circular tours" offering a more complete travel experience. ^[10][11]

Mid-1950s
Taking a page from the legendary Grand Tours of Europe, Globus launches Grand European Touring, offering first-class European tours, an offering that becomes the cornerstone of the company's entry into the U.S. market.^{[12][13][14][15]}

Late-1950s
Globus enters the U.S. market and Antonio Mantegazza's son Sergio aids in the development of the family-owned company.^[16][17][18]

1961
Globus launches Cosmos, featuring affordable, value-priced European touring for the cost-conscious traveler.^{[19][20][21][22]}

Mid-1960s
Cosmos begins offering air holiday packages to sunny destinations in Southern Europe.^[23]

1968
Cosmos air holidays become so popular, Globus forms its own airline, Monarch Airlines.^[24][25]

1974
Under the flagship of Sergio Mantegazza, son of Antonio (the current president of Globus), the company's brands begin expanding their markets into countries around the world. The company launches its North American branch - Group Voyagers, Inc. - to oversee U.S. operations. ^[26]

1980s
Globus is one of the world's largest tour operators, offering vacations in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Europe, Africa, the South Pacific, Asia and South America.^[27]

2003
Globus grows exponentially, launching both Avalon Waterways (river cruising) and Monograms (independent travel).^[28]

2008
The Globus family of brands is the world's largest tour operator with more than 30 tourism and aviation businesses around the world, serviced by a group of more than 5,000 professionals worldwide. Together, Globus, Cosmos, Monograms and Avalon Waterways, carry more than 500,000 passengers a year.^[29][30]

Trailer park with 1970's styled single-wide homes located at 2198 E. Mount Morris Road in Genesee Township, MI just outside the city of Mount Morris between Dort Highway and Bray Road. Dutch Village offers few amenities to its residents including no swimming pool.^[31] Dutch Village contains a higher percentage of older model trailers then any other trailer park in the Mount Morris area. There are nine trailer parks in the Mount Morris area.

[edit] Public Transportation

The closest bus stop is more than two miles away at the Kroger grocery store.^[32]

[edit] School Districts

Kids from Dutch Village predominantly go to Mount Morris schools. Although some families choose to send their kids to Genesee schools.

[edit] Updates and Upgrades

There has been some attempt to remove abandoned trailers and replace them with newer models although many still lay empty with some stripped of its aluminum siding left bare with only 2x4 studs and insulation. 67.177.156.208 (talk) 20:03, 1 February 2008 (UTC) Articles for creation/2008-02-01

Youngest Child Syndrome is defined as the behavior a person may experience as the result of being the final offspring of two parents. This behavior general consists of attention needy, bratty, and big-headed. These children are often the center of attention, spoiled, tattler's, and claimed by the parents to be "the cute one". The child who suffers from Youngest Child Syndrome will get away with practically anything whether it was right or wrong. There is no cure for Youngest Child Syndrome but there are steps in taking control over the child whose birthorder has consumed them.

Skunkwheat is an experimental wheat containing chemicals that are designed to reduced the odor of a Skunk's spray, when consumed orally. The new crossbreed of wheat was developed at the University of Washington, by Professor Alan Ettenberg, and is still in the developmental stages.

[edit] The Idea

In the early weeks of March, 2006, Ettenberg and his family were camping in Goldbar, Washington. Ettenbergs son was sprayed by a skunk, and an allergic reaction set in. His son was rushed to a local hospital to treat a minor cardiac arrest suffered from the reaction, and Ettenberg, upon returning to work at the university, began extensive research on the common skunk. While he failed to find a way of eliminating the spray, he did find a way, in theory, to reduce the odor.

[edit] The Breakthrough

Ettenberg realized that the prime chemicals in a skunks spray, namely acetate thioesters could be greatly reduced when certain breeds of skunk consumed the skunkwheat mixture that he feed them.

The basic breakdown of the skunks spray, from a chemical stand point is as follows:

Ettenberg began three different breeds of skunk on the skunkwheat diet, monitoring each on to see if their was a difference in odor, or amount of spray with each discharge. Results, while announced positive by the University, have been "varied" according to the official studies published later that year.

[edit] On Going Funding

In January of 2008 the University of Washington will be conducting more experiments throughout the year.

Nourish International’s mission is to eradicate global poverty by engaging students and empowering communities. To accomplish this, Nourish students run ventures such as [Hold'em for Hunger] where they learn leadership and business skills. The profit they earn from these ventures is used to fund sustainable development projects in impoverished communities throughout the world.^[33]

[edit] History

Nourish International was founded in 2003 as the UNC student group “Hunger Lunch.” Since then, Nourish has evolved into a national non profit with chapters at Duke University, N.C. State University, Ohio State University, the University of Michigan, St. Louis University, the University of Minnesota, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Last summer, Nourish students partnered with communities in Tanzania, Guatemala and Uganda ^[34].

GEM is short for Gyrokinetic Electromagnetic. GEM is a gyrokinetic turbulence simulation that uses δf particle-in-cell method. It is used to study waves, instabilities and nonlinear behavior of tokamak fusion plasmas. Information about GEM can be found at the GEM web page^[36]. There are two versions of GEM, one is a flux-tube version ^[37] and the other one is a global general geometry version^[38]. Both versions of GEM employ a field-line-following geometry. Ions are treated kinetically, but averaged over their gyro-obits and electrons are treated as drift-kinetic.

[edit] The modeling of the plasmas

The magnetically confined plasma is treated statistically. The distribution function depends on both the three-dimensional position and the two-dimensional velocity. The time evolution of the distribution function is described by a gyro-kinetic equation which is Vlasov Equation averaging over the fast gyro-motion associated with the magnetic field.

[edit] Algorithm to solve the equations

A split-weight scheme is applied on electrons to overcome the limit of small time step, which is caused by the fast motion of electrons.

[edit] Applications

The code has been used to simulate the nonlinear physics involved in the microturbulence like ion temperature gradient driven mode, electron temperature gradient driven mode and trapped electron mode.
