- 3891: Native People in Modern Society
- ... 1989 Bob is working at 40 College and he is the head of Native Liaison department. This department is taking care of education of police officers and also other people like TTC workers, Bank workers, School staff, Students how to interfere with Native people.

But the reserve has a very little of money for education they have to spend money on rent, food, medicine, etc. So even if they want sometimes they still ...
- 3892: Desertification
- ... Planet Management. Improper irrigation sterilizes the earth with salts and alkalis. Canal irrigation is the method used in many poorer countries to supply the crops with water. Much of northern and southern Africa is at high risk of desertification because of this and other poor irrigation techniques (see map). Better use of the scarce water available in these countries must be practiced. Drip or sprinkler irrigation should be used in place ... been collected, , trees are cut down. Consequently, there is nothing to protect the soil. It turns to dust and is soon washed away or blown away by the wind. Places such as Kenya are at high risk of becoming desert due to this destruction of trees (see map). In order to prevent this, many trees, such as the leucaena, should be planted. These trees are excellent for use as fuel since ... put to better use. Marginal lands should produce crops which can prosper without long periods of rain. These crops include, "millet, sorghum, amaranth, certain beans, and fast maturing maize". Almost half of Asia is at high risk and one-third is at moderate risk of desertification (see map). If the proper steps were taken to utilize the full potential of rich quality land and the poor quality land were allowed ...
- 3893: Radioactive Wastes
- ... large number of batch operations in series. Column operations become more practical. In many waste solutions, the radioactive ions are cations and a single column or series of columns of cation exchanger will provide decontamination. High capacity organic resins are often used because of their good flow rate and rapid rate of exchange. Monobed or mixed bed columns contain cation and anion exchangers in the same vessel. Synthetic organic resins, of ... evaporate off the bulk of the waste to obtain a small concentrated volume. The aim is to develop more efficient types of evaporators. At the same time the decontamination factors obtained in evaporation must be high to ensure that the activity of the condensate is negligible, though there remains the problem of accidental dispersion. Much effort is current in many countries on the establishment of the ultimate disposal methods. These are ... the absorbtion of montmorillonite clay' which is comprised of natural clays that have a good capacity for chemical exchange of cations and can store radioactive wastes, 'fused salt calcination' which will neutralize the wastes and 'high temperature processing'. Even though man has made many breakthroughs in the processing, storage and disintegration of radioactive wastes, there is still much work ahead to render the wastes absolutely harmless.
- 3894: Herman Melville
- ... Herman Melville felt from his mother. This was one of the first symbolists to the Biblical Ishamel. In 1837 he shipped to Liverpool as a cabin boy. Upon returning to the U.S. he taught school and then sailed for the South Seas in 1841 on the whaler Acushnet.

- 3895: Albert Einstien
- ... manufacture of electrical parts. When the business failed, in 1894, the family moved to Milan, Italy. At this time Einstein decided officially to end his German citizenship. Within a year, still without having completed secondary school, Einstein failed an examination that would have allowed him to pursue a course of study leading to a diploma as an electrical engineer at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. He spent the next year in nearby Aarau at the cantonal secondary school, where he enjoyed excellent teachers and first-rate facilities in physics. Einstein returned in 1896 to the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, where he graduated, in 1900 as a secondary school teacher of mathematics and physics. After two years he obtained a post at the Swiss patent office in Bern. The patent-office work required Einstein's careful attention, but while employed (1902-1909) there, ...
- 3896: How The Great Pyramid Was Real
- ... square, of an area of 13.1 acres, had to be leveled (Taseos 12, 14). The leveling of the building site was done by flooding the area within the square with water and leaving the high spots (Taseos 14). The high spots were then cut down to the surface of the water(Taseos 14). High spots were cut down again and some of the water was released from the square and back into the Nile river (Taseos 14). A channel was built from the river to the site. The ...
- 3897: Tropical Africa: Food Production and the Inquiry Model
- ... estimated that one third of the land in Tropical Africa is potentially cultivable, though only about 6% of it is currently cultivated. However, to change farming from a low-input, low-yield pattern to a high-input, high-yield pattern necessitates the use of more fertilizer and the planting of high-yielding varieties of crops. There are a number of environmental factors, related mostly to climate, soils and health, resisting easy developmental solutions. Rainfall reliability is closely connected to rainfall quantity. The rainfall in the ...
