text:
On Friday, Donald Trump tweeted the headline to a recent Washington Examiner story, which read: “Border rancher: ‘We’ve found prayer rugs out here. It’s unreal.’” As the headline suggests, the story is about a New Mexico rancher who claims to have seen prayer rugs—typically used by observers of Islam—near the U.S.-Mexico border. After the headline, Trump added this: “People coming across the Southern Border from many countries, some of which would be a big surprise.”

His decision to amplify the Examiner piece has since come under scrutiny. Why? Because the prayer-rug story sounds an awful lot like something that happens in Sicario: Day of the Soldado, as several people have pointed out on Twitter.

The 2018 action film, which revolves around the drug war along the border, opens with border agents chasing after a group of migrants—one of whom turns out to be a Muslim suicide bomber. He kneels, prays, then detonates his bomb. After that, agents come across abandoned prayer rugs along the border; in the next scene, three suicide bombers walk into a store in Kansas City and kill innocent civilians.

The rancher quoted in the Examiner piece does not give her name, or provide photos or evidence of any sort regarding the prayer rugs she allegedly saw. “So I obviously don’t have any proof of it,” she states in a video interview that does not show her face. She does, however, say that she has had conversations with “agents” who have told her that the number of immigrants from countries besides Mexico has “drastically” increased. According to the Examiner piece, the residents in her remote town do not have a local police department; they rely, instead, on the county sheriff’s department and U.S. Border Patrol. The rancher says that she has encountered Guatemalan and Honduran migrants, but “I’ve never seen any Middle Easterners.”

This tweet is not the first time Trump has apparently echoed plot points in the Sicario franchise while ostensibly speaking about real events at the U.S.-Mexico border. The president has also claimed that women are being taped up and trafficked via the southern border, a reality that has been disputed by immigration and human-trafficking experts. “I think his statements are completely divorced from reality,” said Ashley Huebner, associate director of legal services at the National Immigrant Justice Center, in an interview with The Washington Post. “That’s not a fact pattern that we see.” Other experts told the Post that it is possible women are being taped up and trafficked, and that they could not speak to information the president might have received from law-enforcement officials; that said, they agreed, this is not a frequent occurrence, as he seems to allege it is.

However . . . what Trump describes is, once again, a plot point in the Sicario franchise. Could it be, then, that real governmental talking points are being lifted from movies, so that Trump can find new reasons to justify his proposed, costly border wall? Vanity Fair has reached out to the White House for comment.

Either way, one thing is clear: in the midst of all this talk, the longest government shutdown in history is still ongoing.

Lesson: Understanding Fake News

Introduction:
In today's digital age, it is essential to be able to identify fake news. This lesson will teach you how to recognize fake news and develop critical thinking skills to evaluate the credibility of information.

Section 1: What is Fake News?
Fake news refers to stories or information that are intentionally false or misleading. It is created to manipulate public opinion or spread misinformation.

Section 2: How to Identify Fake News
There are several ways to identify fake news:

1. Check the source: Look for the credibility of the source. If the source is not reliable, the information may be fake.

2. Verify the information: Use fact-checking tools to verify the information. You can use websites like Snopes or Politifact to check the accuracy of the information.

3. Check for inconsistencies: Look for inconsistencies in the story. If the story lacks logical explanation or contradicts itself, it may be fake.

4. Check for sensational language: Fake news often uses sensational language to grab attention. If the language is exaggerated or overly dramatic, it may be fake.

Section 3: Practical Examples
Let's look at an example of fake news:

Example: A recent news article claimed that a popular brand of cat food was poisoning cats. The article provided no evidence to support the claim, and it was quickly debunked by experts.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned how to identify fake news and develop critical thinking skills to evaluate the credibility of information. We also looked at a practical example of fake news and how to identify it. By understanding how to identify fake news, we can make informed decisions and avoid being misled by misinformation.

Lesson: Finding Same Values in Two Matrices

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn how to find values in two matrices that are the same in both matrices. This can be useful in many fields such as computer science, finance, and mathematics. We will use the "ismember" function to compare the values in the two matrices and find the indices of the rows that have the same values. Then, we will extract those rows from the matrices.

Objectives:
- Understand the concept of finding same values in two matrices
- Learn how to use the "ismember" function to compare values in two matrices
- Extract rows with same values from two matrices

Instructions:
1. Open MATLAB and create two matrices A and B with some values.
```
A = [32512199.30 5401000.29  347.33;
      32512199.69 5401000.45  347.39;
      32512199.67 5401001.32  353.58;
      32512198.85 5401000.91  347.25;
      32512196.71 5401001.69  346.87];
B = [32512199.30 5401000.29  347.33;
      32512199.69 5401000.45  347.39;
      32512199.67 5401001.32  347.00;
      32512198.85 5401000.91  347.25;
      32512196.71 5401001.69  346.87];
```

2. Use the "ismember" function to compare the values in the two matrices and find the indices of the rows that have the same values.
```
row_idx = find ( ismember(ismember(A,B), [1 1 0], 'rows') )
```

3. Extract those rows from the matrices A and B.
```
XA = A(row_idx,:);
XB = B(row_idx,:);
```

4. Print the extracted values to verify that they are the same.
```
disp("XA ="); disp(XA);
disp("XB ="); disp(XB);
```

Conclusion:
We have learned how to find values in two matrices that are the same in both matrices using the "ismember" function and extract those rows from the matrices. This skill can be applied in many fields such as computer science, finance, and mathematics to find matching values in large datasets.


text: Cautionary Tales: Making and Breaking Community in the Oil Sands Region. Abstract. I consider data from Cree and Métis history, ethnology, and mythology to focus on three transformative modes (integration, disintegration, and media- tion) in relation to concepts of community. I develop an allegorical fantasy of oily monsters, tricksters, and their appetites arising from liquid commodities, in opposition to more integrative ritual practices that have historically underpinned community in the oil sands region of northern Alberta. Specifically, I suggest that (petro)-capitalism can be compared to the monstrous Windigo (not a trick- ster) with respect to its uncontrolled appetites and growth, and also that various proposed technical remediations resemble the vain adventures of the hubristic, foolish, and acquisitive Amerindian Trickster..

The obvious appears confirmed but little else appears as is to be expected.. A much more interesting question would be to study what happened to disappearing names. This would signal lineages under some form of pressure in an expanding base. There may even be some history there.. Universal surnames were not common in the past. We can see this in Europe were we find names that are mostly words extant during the middle ages. If not that then the surname is often tied to an estate or community..

Lesson: The Evolution of Surnames in China

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will explore the evolution of surnames in China and what this reveals about the country's history and culture. We will begin by understanding the importance of surnames in Chinese culture and how they have evolved over time.

Section 1: Importance of Surnames in Chinese Culture

Topic 1: The Significance of Surnames
- Surnames are an essential part of Chinese culture and have been used for centuries to identify individuals within a family or community.
- In ancient China, surnames were often derived from the name of a place or an occupation, and they helped to establish a person's identity within their social hierarchy.
- Today, surnames are still an important aspect of Chinese culture, and they are used to maintain connections between families and to preserve the memory of ancestors.

Topic 2: The Meaning Behind Chinese Surnames
- Many Chinese surnames have specific meanings that reflect the character traits or occupations of the people who bear them.
- For example, the surname "Wang" means "king," while "Li" means "brilliant" or "glowing."
- These meanings have been passed down through generations, and they help to shape the identity of individuals within Chinese society.

Section 2: The Evolution of Surnames in China

Topic 1: The Origin of Surnames
- The use of surnames in China can be traced back to the Shang Dynasty (1600-1046 BCE), when people began using them to distinguish themselves from others.
- During the Han Dynasty (206 BCE-220 CE), surnames became more widespread, and they were used to indicate a person's social status and occupation.
- Over time, surnames became more standardized, and they were used to identify families and clans.

Topic 2: The Spread of Surnames
- As trade and migration increased during the Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE), surnames began to spread beyond China's borders.
- Many Chinese immigrants brought their surnames with them when they settled in other countries, such as Vietnam, Korea, and Japan.
- Today, many Asian countries have surnames that are derived from Chinese characters.

Section 3: The Impact of Surnames on Chinese Society

Topic 1: The Preservation of Identity
- Surnames have played an essential role in preserving the identity of Chinese families over time.
- They have helped to maintain connections between families and to pass down cultural traditions and values from one generation to the next.
- Surnames have also been used to trace lineages and to establish relationships between different families.

Topic 2: The Influence of Surnames on Social Status
- In ancient China, surnames were used to indicate a person's social status and occupation.
- People with higher-status surnames were often treated with more respect and deference than those with lower-status surnames.
- Today, while social status is no longer determined by one's surname, it still plays a role in Chinese society, as some surnames are associated with wealth, power, or prestige.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, the evolution of surnames in China reveals much about the country's history and culture. Surnames have played an essential role in preserving identity, maintaining connections between families, and establishing relationships within society. By studying the origins and spread of surnames, we can gain valuable insights into the development of Chinese culture and the ways in which it has influenced other cultures around the world.

Glossary:
- Surname: a family name passed down through generations
- Ancestor: a deceased predecessor; a forefather or foremother
- Hierarchy: a system of organization or arrangement in which items are ranked according to their importance or significance
- Social status: the position or standing of a person or group in society, often measured by wealth, power, or prestige.

Self-Debate Discussion:
- How have surnames influenced your perception of identity and social status in your own culture or community?
- In what ways have surnames been used to preserve cultural traditions and values in your family or community?
- How do you think the evolution of surnames in China has impacted the development of other cultures around the world?

Russian President Vladimir Putin said the level of trust between Russia and the United States has decreased since U.S. President Donald Trump took office.

Putin's remarks in a TV interview were posted on the Kremlin website on April 12, around the time U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson sat down for talks with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Moscow.

Asked whether Russian-U.S. ties had worsened since Trump took office in January, Putin said: "One can say that that the level of trust on the working level, particularly on the military level...has not improved but most likely deteriorated."

Putin also stuck by Russia's assertion that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government was not responsible for what the United States says was a chemical weapons attack that killed dozens of civilians on April 4.

He said Russia believes the two most credible theories are that toxic gas was released when Syrian government air strikes hit a rebel chemical weapons production facility or that the attack was “simply staged.”

The United States and other countries have dismissed such claims as implausible.

Lesson: Comparing and Contrasting Political Leaders

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about comparing and contrasting political leaders. We will focus on the statements made by Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump regarding their countries' relations.

Section 1: Comparing and Contrasting Political Leaders

Topic 1: Statements on Relations between Countries

Question: How do Putin's and Trump's statements differ regarding the level of trust between Russia and the United States?

Answer: Putin stated that the level of trust between Russia and the United States has decreased since Trump took office, while Trump has not made any public statements regarding this issue.

Topic 2: Statements on Chemical Weapons Attack in Syria

Question: How do Putin's and Trump's statements differ regarding the chemical weapons attack in Syria?

Answer: Putin stated that Russia believes the two most credible theories are that toxic gas was released when Syrian government air strikes hit a rebel chemical weapons production facility or that the attack was staged by opposition forces. Trump, on the other hand, has stated that the attack was a result of Assad's "heinous actions" and has launched missile strikes against Syria in response.

Section 2: Practical Examples

Example 1: Comparing and Contrasting Political Leaders

Question: How can we compare and contrast Putin's and Trump's statements regarding the level of trust between Russia and the United States?

Answer: We can compare and contrast their statements by analyzing the language used, the tone, and the context in which they were made. Putin's statement is more critical of the current state of relations, while Trump has not made any public statements regarding this issue.

Example 2: Analyzing Statements on Chemical Weapons Attack in Syria

Question: How can we analyze the statements made by Putin and Trump regarding the chemical weapons attack in Syria?

Answer: We can analyze their statements by examining the evidence presented, the sources cited, and the logic used to support their claims. Putin's statements rely on theories that have not been proven, while Trump's statements are based on a clear response to the attack.

Section 3: Self-Debating Discussions

Question: What are some potential benefits and drawbacks of comparing and contrasting political leaders?

Answer: Benefits of comparing and contrasting political leaders include gaining a better understanding of their policies and positions, as well as their leadership styles. Drawbacks may include oversimplifying complex issues and making assumptions based on limited information.

Conclusion:

In this lesson, we learned about comparing and contrasting political leaders by analyzing statements made by Putin and Trump regarding relations between Russia and the United States, as well as the chemical weapons attack in Syria. We also explored practical examples and self-debating discussions related to this topic. By applying these skills, we can better understand and engage with political leaders and issues in our own communities.

Lesson: Fundraising for Projects

### Introduction
Fundraising is the process of seeking financial support for a project or cause. It is an essential part of any project, as it helps to ensure that the project has the necessary resources to succeed. In this lesson, we will learn about different ways to fund a project, the importance of finding the right funding source, and how to create a successful fundraising campaign.

### Section 1: Types of Funding
There are several ways to fund a project, including grants, loans, crowdfunding, and sponsorships. Each type of funding has its own advantages and disadvantages, and it is essential to choose the one that best suits the needs of your project.

**Grants:** Grants are a type of funding that does not require repayment. They are often given by government agencies, non-profit organizations, or private foundations. To get a grant, you usually need to submit a proposal that outlines the purpose of your project and how it will benefit the community.

**Loans:** Loans are a type of funding that must be repaid, usually with interest. They can be obtained from banks, credit unions, or online lenders. Loans can be a good option if you need a large sum of money and are confident that you will be able to repay it.

**Crowdfunding:** Crowdfunding is a way to raise money from a large number of people, typically via the internet. People can donate any amount they choose, and in return, they may receive rewards or perks. Crowdfunding campaigns can be a great way to raise awareness about your project and engage with potential supporters.

**Sponsorships:** Sponsorships are a type of funding where a company or individual provides financial support in exchange for exposure or recognition. This can be a great way to secure funding if you have a large following or can offer significant exposure for the sponsor.

### Section 2: Finding the Right Funding Source
Not all types of funding will be suitable for every project. It is essential to research and identify the funding sources that are most likely to support your project. Here are some tips for finding the right funding source:

1. Research the funder's mission and goals to ensure that they align with your project.
2. Look for funders that have supported similar projects in the past.
3. Make sure you meet the eligibility requirements for the funding source you are applying to.
4. Be clear about the amount of funding you need and how you plan to use it.

### Section 3: Creating a Successful Fundraising Campaign
Once you have identified the right funding source, it is time to create a successful fundraising campaign. Here are some tips for creating a compelling campaign:

1. Develop a clear and concise message that explains the purpose of your project and why it is important.
2. Create a compelling video or presentation that showcases your project and its benefits.
3. Use social media and other online platforms to reach potential donors and spread the word about your campaign.
4. Offer rewards or perks to incentivize donations, such as early access to your product or exclusive content.
5. Keep track of your progress and communicate regularly with your supporters to keep them engaged.

### Glossary

[Lithotrophic metabolic elements in the obligate methylotroph, Methylococcus thermophilus].
Methane oxidizing bacteria oxidize ammonium via hydroxylamine to nitrite. Electrons liberated upon oxidation of hydroxylamine are transported, depending on the conditions, by the components of the respiratory chain either to oxygen or to pyridine nucleotide. In the former case, the process is coupled with ATP synthesis which occurs at the level of terminal oxidase; in the latter case, NAD+ is reduced by the energy-dependent reversed electron flow in the respiratory chain. The level of nitrite accumulation in the culture liquid of methane oxidizing bacteria suggests that the process of ammonium nitrification is a necessary step of their metabolism. Therefore, oxidation of the mineral component of the growth medium (i. e. ammonium) is an additional source of metabolic energy for the obligate methane oxidizing bacterium Methylococcus thermophilus. Operation of the lithotrophic type of mechanism for energy production at the account of ammonium oxidation makes methane oxidizing bacteria similar to nitrifying microorganisms.

Lesson: Understanding Metabolic Pathways in Bacteria

Introduction:
Metabolic pathways are the series of chemical reactions that occur within cells to sustain life. These pathways involve the conversion of food into energy and the breakdown of waste products. In this lesson, we will explore the metabolic pathways of bacteria, specifically the lithotrophic metabolic pathway in Methylococcus thermophilus.

Section 1: Lithotrophic Metabolism
Lithotrophic metabolism is a form of metabolism where organisms obtain energy from inorganic compounds such as ammonium. This type of metabolism is common in bacteria that live in extreme environments such as hot springs. Methylococcus thermophilus is an example of such a bacterium.

The metabolic pathway of Methylococcus thermophilus involves the oxidation of methane to produce energy. This process is known as methanotrophy. The bacterium also oxidizes ammonium to produce nitrite. The electrons released during this process can be transported to either oxygen or pyridine nucleotide, depending on the conditions. If the electrons are transported to oxygen, ATP is synthesized at the level of terminal oxidase. If the electrons are transported to pyridine nucleotide, NAD+ is reduced by the energy-dependent reversed electron flow in the respiratory chain.

Section 2: Ammonium Nitrification
Ammonium nitrification is a necessary step in the metabolism of Methylococcus thermophilus. The process involves the oxidation of ammonium to nitrite. This is an additional source of metabolic energy for the bacterium. The accumulation of nitrite in the culture liquid of methane oxidizing bacteria suggests that the process of ammonium nitrification is essential for their survival.

Section 3: Conclusion
Understanding the metabolic pathways of bacteria such as Methylococcus thermophilus is crucial for understanding their role in the environment and their potential applications in biotechnology. By studying the lithotrophic metabolic pathway of this bacterium, we can gain insights into the processes that enable them to thrive in extreme environments and utilize methane as an energy source.

Glossary:
- Lithotrophic: an organism that obtains energy from inorganic compounds
- Methanotrophy: the process of oxidizing methane to produce energy
- Terminal oxidase: an enzyme involved in the production of ATP
- Pyridine nucleotide: a coenzyme involved in the transfer of electrons

Conclusion:
By studying the metabolic pathways of bacteria such as Methylococcus thermophilus, we can gain a deeper understanding of their role in the environment and their potential applications in biotechnology. The lithotrophic metabolic pathway of this bacterium provides insights into the processes that enable them to thrive in extreme environments and utilize methane as an energy source. By applying this knowledge, we can develop strategies to harness the power of these bacteria for our own purposes, such as cleaning up pollution or producing biofuels.

Q:

Textarea: Allow to begin with linebreak

I'm developing an Ionic/Cordova App. There is a textarea visible where user can input some data, which is transferred to the server.
Here, the user should be able to input line breaks. The problem I'm facing right now is that it's only possible after they input the first character; and it's not possible to begin with a line break. The ng-model cuts off the beginning line breaks. How can I achieve my goal?
The textarea looks like this:
<textarea ng-model="card.text" id="text-message" rows="20"></textarea>

Thank you.

A:

According to https://github.com/angular/angular.js/issues/2010 you can apply ng-trim="false" to your element to stop this behaviour like so:
<textarea ng-model="card.text" ng-trim="false" id="text-message" rows="20"></textarea>

textbook:
Lesson: How to allow users to input line breaks in a textarea

## Introduction

In this lesson, we will learn how to allow users to input line breaks in a textarea using AngularJS. We will cover the following topics:

1. Understanding the problem
2. Applying ng-trim="false" to the textarea
3. Testing the solution
4. Conclusion

## Understanding the problem

In an Ionic/Cordova app, a user needs to input data in a textarea. However, when the user tries to input a line break at the beginning of the text, it is not allowed. This is because the ng-model cuts off the beginning line breaks.

## Applying ng-trim="false" to the textarea

To allow users to input line breaks at the beginning of the text, we need to apply the `ng-trim="false"` directive to the textarea. This will prevent the trimming of white spaces and line breaks at the beginning of the input value.

Here is the updated code for the textarea:

```html
<textarea ng-model="card.text" ng-trim="false" id="text-message" rows="20"></textarea>
```

## Testing the solution

To test the solution, we can create a sample app and input some text with line breaks at the beginning. If the `ng-trim` directive is applied correctly, the line breaks should be preserved in the input value.

## Conclusion

In this lesson, we learned how to allow users to input line breaks in a textarea using AngularJS. By applying the `ng-trim="false"` directive to the textarea, we can prevent the trimming of white spaces and line breaks at the beginning of the input value. This allows users to input line breaks at the beginning of the text, making the textarea more flexible and user-friendly.

        Appellees                                          Decided: February 8, 2019

                                                 *****

        Richard R. Malone, for appellant.

        Paula Hicks-Hudson, for appellees.

                                                 *****

        PIETRYKOWSKI, J.

        {¶ 1} Appellant, Deerpointe Property Owners’ Association, Inc. (hereinafter

“DPOA”) filed an accelerated appeal from the March 26, 2018 judgment of the Lucas

County Court of Common Pleas denying partial summary judgment to DPOA and
awarding summary judgment to appellees, which resulted in dismissal of the DPOA’s

complaint. Upon review, we reverse.

       {¶ 2} DPOA filed a complaint for injunctive relief to enforce a deed restriction

banning above-ground swimming pools in Deerpointe Plat One. Melvin and Cheryl

Craig, appellees, purchased the property in Deerpointe Plat One in 2005, subject to the

Declaration of Restrictions recorded in 1994. The Declaration of Restrictions provides in

Article One, Section 5, as follows:

              No above ground swimming pool shall be installed on any lot nor

       shall any other swimming pool be installed in Deerpointe Plat One until the

       plans, specifications and plat plan showing the location of such addition or

       swimming pool shall have been approved in writing by Developer.

Article Two, Section 5 provides that:

              The rights, privileges and powers granted to Developer in ARTICLE

       ONE, Sections * * * 5, * * * shall remain exclusively in Developer for a

       period of twenty (20) years * * * notwithstanding any assignment by

       Developer to the Association of Developer’s rights, privileges and powers

       * * *. Upon the expiration of such twenty (20) year period, * * * the rights

       reserved to Developer as set forth in this section shall terminate.

       {¶ 3} While numerous arguments were presented, the trial court considered only

the issue of whether the deed restriction regarding pools had expired. The trial court

found that while Article Two, Section 4, provided certain “rights, privileges and powers”

2.
could be assigned to the DPOA, Article One, Section 5 provided other certain “rights,

privileges and powers” (which included the restrictions regarding the installation of

pools) were exclusively reserved to the developer for 20 years. But, because Article

Three, Section 2 provided for automatic extensions of the restrictions unless terminated,

the trial court found these three provisions were inconsistent and ambiguous. Because of

the ambiguity, the trial court construed the Declaration of Restrictions in a manner which

least restricted the use of the land and concluded the restrictions regarding pools had

terminated. Therefore, the trial court denied the motion for partial summary judgment

and granted summary judgment to appellees.

       {¶ 4} We consolidate appellant’s three assignments of errors and review the issue

addressed by the trial court. We conclude the trial court misread the Declaration of

Restrictions and found an ambiguity where there was none.

       {¶ 5} The restriction clearly provides that “[n]o above ground swimming pool

shall be installed on any lot.” The provision further restricts the construction of “any

other swimming pool” unless “the plans, specifications and plat plan showing the

location of such addition or swimming pool shall have been approved in writing by

Developer.” Furthermore, Article Two, Section 5, provides that the “rights, privileges

and powers granted to Developer” in the aforementioned section are the exclusive rights

of the developer for 20 years. The “rights, privileges and powers” does not refer to the

restrictive covenant, but to the Developer’s exclusive right to review and approve the

plans for installation of other types of swimming pools which are allowed. Article Three,

3.
Section 1 provides the restrictions run with the land. Article Three, Section 2, provides

the restrictions automatically renew for specific periods of time unless revoked by a

majority of the property owners.

       {¶ 6} Because the restrictive covenant is clear and unambiguous, the trial court

was required to enforce it. Cleveland Baptist Assn. v. Scovil, 107 Ohio St. 67, 72, 140

N.E. 647 (1923); Corna v. Szabo, 6th Dist. Ottawa No. OT-05-025, 2006-Ohio-2764,

¶ 38. Therefore, we find the trial court erred in denying summary judgment to the DPOA

and granting summary judgment to appellees. Appellant’s first, second, and third

assignments of error are found well-taken.

       {¶ 7} Having found that the trial court did commit error prejudicial to appellant

and that substantial justice has not been done, the judgment of the Lucas County Court of

Common Pleas is reversed. Appellees are ordered to pay the costs of this appeal pursuant

to App.R. 24.

                                                                       Judgment reversed.

       A certified copy of this entry shall constitute the mandate pursuant to App.R. 27.

# Lesson: Introduction to Real Estate Law

### Overview:
In this lesson, we will explore the basics of real estate law, including property ownership, legal descriptions, and easements. We will also discuss the importance of understanding these concepts when buying or selling property.

### Objectives:
By the end of this lesson, you should be able to:

1. Define real estate law and its significance in the property ownership process
2. Identify the different types of property ownership and their implications
3. Understand the concept of legal descriptions and how they are used in real estate transactions
4. Recognize the importance of easements and how they affect property rights
5. Apply the knowledge gained in this lesson to real-world scenarios

### Section 1: Introduction to Real Estate Law

Real estate law is a branch of law that deals with the ownership and use of land and buildings. It covers a wide range of topics, including property ownership, legal descriptions, easements, and zoning. Understanding these concepts is crucial when buying or selling property, as they can have significant implications on your rights and responsibilities.

### Section 2: Types of Property Ownership

There are several types of property ownership, including:

1. Fee simple: This is the most common type of property ownership, where the owner has full control over the property and can sell, lease, or will it as they see fit.

2. Leasehold: This type of ownership occurs when a person or entity (the "lessee") holds a property for a specified period of time, usually under a lease agreement. The lessor retains ownership of the property during the lease term.

3. Co-ownership: This occurs when two or more people own a property together. There are several ways to co-own property, including joint tenancy, tenancy in common, and tenancy by the entirety.

4. Timeshare: This type of ownership involves owning a property for a specific period of time each year, typically measured in weeks or units.

### Section 3: Legal Descriptions

A legal description is a written explanation of a piece of real estate that includes its location, boundaries, and dimensions. It is used to identify a property for legal purposes, such as when transferring ownership or obtaining a loan. Legal descriptions can take several forms, including metes and bounds, lot and block, and government survey.

### Section 4: Easements

An easement is a legal right to use someone else's property for a specific purpose, such as accessing a shared driveway or utilizing a sewage system. Easements can be created expressly or implied by law, and they can be either appurtenant (running with the land) or in gross (attached to a specific piece of property).

### Section 5: Conclusion

Understanding real estate law is essential when buying or selling property, as it can significantly impact your rights and responsibilities. By familiarizing yourself with the basics of property ownership, legal descriptions, and easements, you can make informed decisions and avoid potential legal issues.

Investigation of the persistence and transmission of MRSA CC 5 in pigs following intra-nasal inoculation.
MRSA CC5 spa type t002 appears to have a broad host range, has been isolated from animals and in-contact humans in Ireland and could potentially become established in pigs in Ireland. The aims of this study were to determine if MRSA CC5 spa type t002 could persist in the tissues of the porcine upper respiratory tract following intra-nasal inoculation; to determine the relative importance of environmental and animal sources of the bacterium in the transmission cycle and to determine the importance of the pharynx as a carriage site of Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA. Twelve pigs were inoculated intra-nasally with MRSA CC5 t002. After 1 or 6 days, the inoculated pigs were removed from the contaminated environment, were washed in an antiseptic solution and placed in a clean house with a group of naive pigs (in-contact group). Another group of naive pigs was placed in the contaminated environment to assess transmission from the environment (environmental group). Nasal swabs, environmental swabs and tissue samples from the upper respiratory tract were taken for MRSA culture. Infection rates were calculated for each group of exposed pigs. MRSA persisted in the pharyngeal tissues of 6 inoculated pigs for at least 30 days and higher counts of S. aureus were found in pharyngeal tissues than in other sites. In this study we were able to demonstrate the establishment of colonisation by MRSA CC5 spa type t002 in commercially sourced pigs already colonised by S. aureus; however, colonisation was sporadic despite the inoculation of large doses. Onward transmission via pig-to-pig contact or environmental contamination was possible and a significant difference was found between the proportion of pigs infected in the environmental group and the proportion infected in the in-contact group during the first 5 days. However, no significant difference was detected in overall infection rates between the 2 groups. The tissues of the pharynx were found to carry greater numbers of S. aureus than other tissues of the upper respiratory tract; therefore, pharyngeal carriage of MRSA and S. aureus in pigs may be more significant than previously thought.

Scientists decide to bury 5,000-year-old lost city in Pakistan

June 25, 2017

Mohenjo Daro is threatened by the baking temperatures of the Indus Valley and the threat from tourists and terrorists

Archaeologists are trying to save the remains of a nearly 5,000-year-old city in Pakistan by burying it again. The buried city, known as Mohenjo Daro or “mound of the dead”, was first discovered in the 1920s by an officer at the Archaeological Survey of India in what is now Sindh, Pakistan. Over the next 50 years, excavations revealed a Bronze Age city complete with a street grid and a sophisticated drainage system which included flushing toilets.

The city was part of the Harappan civilisation which reached its heyday at around 2500BCE and ended in apparent destruction in around 1900BCE. No one exactly knows why the Harappan civilisation the disappeared, although theories for their extinction have included an Aryan invasion and catastrophic weather conditions such as drought.

Scientists now fear the effects on the site of the intense heat of the Indus Valley. Dr Michael Jansen, a German researcher working at the site, told Agence France Presse the region was facing “enormous thermo-stress” from temperatures which can reach 46C in the summer.

The site is also threatened by salt from the underground water table. Experts have also been worried by the destruction of the ancient Roman city of Palmyra in Syria by Isis, which claimed the pre-Islamic religious iconography was idolatrous. Pakistan has suffered from a rise in Islamist extremism in recent years particularly with the Taliban, who famously destroyed the Buddhas of Bamiyan in Afghanistan in 2001, active in the Swat Valley. But the biggest threat to Mohenjo Daro is the ordinary visitors who flock in their thousands to the site.

During the Sindh festival in February 2014, hundreds of workers and electricians clambered over the site to set up stages, tents and install lights – hammering them into the delicate ruins with nails.

The Sindh High Court was eventually forced to issue a notice to the workers telling them to take the “utmost” care with the site, the Pakistan Express-Tribune reported at the time.

Now archaeologists are saying they should abandon further attempts to excavate the site and instead leave it buried until they can find a better way to protect it.
