Women shoulder much of the responsibility for various domestic chores

Creeping China

And so we marvel at silk worms the silk worm you see here spinning its fiber.

Vocational training in agriculture is mostly geared to men

The Banks that Ate the Economy

So this material is silk.

Take a little, then a little more until finally you have it all.

Women shoulder much of the responsibility for the care of livestock and poultry

The silk worm does a remarkable thing it uses these two ingredients, protein and water, that are in its gland, to make a material that is exceptionally tough for protection so comparable to technical fibers like Kevlar.

Fiorenzo Omenetto Silk, the ancient material of the future

So it's kind of different from what we're used to thinking about silk.

And it sort of nibbles at the core of the whole profession and all the assumptions of that medium.

To enable Cyrus IMAP support and to use these functions you have to compile PHP with the with cyrus option.

Instructions are separated the same as in C or Perl terminate each statement with a semicolon.

Women have led the way to protest corporate encroachment on the rain forest and its life sustaining, planet sustaining environment.

I also remain concerned about Israel's continued construction of the barrier in the West Bank, which encroaches on Palestinian land.

Now I'm going to mark on the toughness values for nylon fiber, bombyx or domesticated silkworm silk wool, Kevlar, and carbon fibers.

Participants recommend that the United Nations and international and inter governmental organizations and bodies

50. Under the PEACE Initiative, UNOPS is supporting development of a silk production project benefiting women in six districts of Herat province.

So the insight is how do you actually reverse engineer this and go from cocoon to gland and get water and protein that is your starting material.

So very often, some kind of disaster sometimes the consequence, for example, of over cultivation of silk worms, which was a problem in Europe at the time can be the key to something much bigger.

And the image of the DVD here is just to illustrate a point that silk follows very subtle topographies of the surface, which means that it can replicate features on the nanoscale.

The Special Rapporteur saw evidence of such an expansion near Jayyous where the settlement of Zufin is being expanded to encroach further on the fields of Jayyous farmers in the closed zone .

Instead of a function name, an array containing an object reference and a method name can also be supplied.

Together, women handle problems of informal business that they cannot handle alone, such as planting harvesting irrigation growing of tobacco, grains and silkworms and fruit and cotton picking.

It provided support to silk production (Cambodia) and strengthened the supply side in mushrooms and peaches (Lesotho), mangoes (Haiti) and jute production (Bangladesh).

And so in the reverse engineering process that we know about, and that we're familiar with, for the textile industry, the textile industry goes and unwinds the cocoon and then weaves glamorous things.

We gave talks once a month, and that actually ended up implementing some amazing sustainability projects at the prisons organic gardens, worm culture, recycling, water catchment and beekeeping.

Make no mistake China s territorial creep is contributing to Asian insecurity, fueling political tension, and turning the world s economically most vibrant continent into a potentially global hot spot.

After laying claim to 80 of the South China Sea, it has just established a so called air defense identification zone in the East China Sea, raising the odds of armed conflict with Japan and threatening the principle of freedom of navigation of the seas and skies. Meanwhile, the People s Republic continues to nibble furtively at territory across the long, disputed Himalayan border with India.

If we think, for example, of Louis Pasteur, who in the 1860s was asked to study the diseases of silk worms for the silk industry, and his discoveries were really the beginning of the germ theory of disease.

And it is a good thing that the official sector is paying more attention to joblessness a very good thing. Yet, unfortunately, this shift will not solve a problem that eats away at the social fabric of any society.

To generate income from the forest environment, the Government conducted training for women in forestry so they could carry out economically productive activities such as culturing beehives to make honey, using cocoons to make natural silk and encouragement to grow herbal plants.

Most of these economies were suffering a loss of their export markets to low wage Asia. A decade of wage growth exceeding productivity gains led to real appreciation, loss of competitiveness, and large current account deficits.

The ethnic factor, in conjunction with other political, economic, historical and cultural factors, is eating away at the fragile political ties in Africa, with the harrowing consequences of confrontation whose main victims are civilian populations and a resurgence of the crime of genocide.

Special national features include the very high peak tariffs for above quota imports of bananas into the EU (180 per cent) of dried beans, peas and lentils into Japan (460 640 per cent) and of groundnuts (in shell) into the US (164 per cent).

Given that central banks are likely to continue to pursue multiple objectives for a long time, their independence will continue to erode. As long as governments do not encroach excessively on central bank decision making, this development will restore balance in policymaking and support policy coordination, particularly in times of stress.

He concurred with the Special Rapporteur that the purpose behind the wall was a de facto annexation of an ever larger part of Palestinian territory.

Moreover, Kenya s desire to carve out a buffer state conflicts with the Somali government s goal of uniting the country. Indeed, the last thing the government in Mogadishu wants is another semi autonomous region challenging its authority or another country annexing southern Somalia for its own purposes.

The wall's encroachment on Palestinian land and interests creates great hardships for the Palestinian people affected by its construction and exacerbates the situation by placing populations, agricultural land and a part of the West Bank aquifer beyond their reach.

The severing of indigenous peoples from their lands and territories through expropriation, dispossession, encroachment, extinguishment of rights, and other policies, doctrines and laws of States and non recognition of the social, cultural, spiritual and economic significance of land had both short and long term impacts on indigenous communities.

The Earth's gravity is going to bend the orbit of this thing so much that if it's just right, if it passes through this region of space, this kidney bean shaped region called the keyhole, the Earth's gravity will bend it just enough that seven years later on April 13, which is a Friday, I'll note, in the year 2036 ...

Despite the undeniable achievements of the peace process since 1993, most of the Palestinian and other Arab territories occupied by Israel in 1967, including Jerusalem, remain under occupation, vulnerable to exploitation of resources, land confiscation and encroaching settlements.
