After

A year that tested the will of a nation

BookPage® Review by Anne Bartlett

On the morning of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, we all immediately thought of the thousands of victims and their survivors, and in the months that followed, journalists did reams of stories about the struggles of those people most directly affected by the tragedy.

But uncountable lives were altered in more indirect ways in the attack's ripple effect. Take the guy who is president of a Silicon Valley company that manufactures baggage screening equipment. Or a U.S. Border Patrol agent guarding the crossing from Canada near Detroit. Journalist Steve Brill thought about these people and others, and he started tracking them. The result is After: How America Confronted the September 12 Era, a solidly reported book about how the U.S. rose or, in some cases, failed to rise to the challenge after the attack. Brill, a long-time news industry entrepreneur who is now a Newsweek columnist and NBC consultant, employs the well-established technique of telling a big story by following the day-by-day lives of the ordinary people caught up in that story. His cast is vast, with some 20 main characters and scores of peripheral figures. It includes a few of the immediate victims, but more interesting are the less well-known tales of folks ranging from the obscure an aging Italian immigrant shoe repairman to the famous, including Homeland Defense Secretary Tom Ridge and U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft.

While Brill is relentlessly fair about presenting all sides, the book does have heroes (Ridge, for one) and villains. Brill is particularly effective at describing the battles in the legal and political arenas over insurance, survivor benefits and the creation of the new Homeland Security Department clashes that show not that America is in decline, but that it thrives on open debate. Progress was ragged after 9/11, Brill tells us, but it did occur. The country is safer, if not yet safe enough. That first year, he writes, "became a modern, vivid test of a country that has flourished not only on patriotism and strength of spirit, but also because it allows, even encourages, its people and institutions to seek to advance their own interests.''He believes America met that test. Anne Bartlett is a journalist who lives in South Florida.

CHEYENNE BOTTOMS � Over the past decade, the monarch butterfly population has been in decline.�A group of Kansans is trying to help reverse that.

These orange-and-black-winged insects make a multi-generational migration north every year from forests in Mexico up to Canada and then back, relying on milkweed to sustain them on the journey. Current farming practices, including use of weed-controlling chemicals, have drastically reduced the amount of plants across Midwest. Though the butterflies, which are native to central America, are not themselves endangered, their migration is.

Chip Taylor, a professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Kansas, said discussion is taking place on the federal level to help protect the monarchs, but it isn't working fast enough.

"We can't wait," he said.

In 1996 the migratory monarch population was enough to cover roughly 20 hectares, or about 50 acres. Last year, Taylor said, their number was recorded at .67 hectares.

Taylor is the director of Monarch Watch a KU-based national and international group devoted to the study, research and conservation of the butterfly species. The group promotes tagging monarchs, and plant propagation of milkweed across the U.S.

"This is a country-wide species, and a country-wide issue," he said. "Every little garden, every little roadside plot is critical."�

Monarch Watch has been around since 1993. The group's focus, Taylor said, has shifted from research to conservation as the population has declined. As a result, the group has upped its efforts to collect milkweed seeds and distribute milkweed plants across the country. This year alone the group has sent out more than 40,000 plants. They additionally provide free milkweed plants to schools and nonprofit organizations through an application process.

�It would be such a loss to lose the monarch migration,� said Pam Martin, an environmental educator at Cheyenne Bottoms Wildlife Area. �It�s a miracle each year. There�s still so much we don�t know. To lose that would be a loss for the human race. We have to fight to keep that and save it.�

Martin, who helps Taylor's conservation efforts, regularly checks the Bottoms for monarchs, caterpillars, eggs and chrysalises on the milkweed plants in the area.

Martin said the Bottoms actually have a decent amount of milkweed plants this year, thanks to decent rainfall this year. Milkweed is a plant common to Kansas, and until recently it was found in large numbers in fields across Kansas. She also said although monarch butterfly numbers have decreased drastically, they seem to be rebounding locally, with many adults, caterpillars and eggs found in milkweed on Cheyenne Bottoms.

Taylor said this year's population will be twice the size of last year's.

In an effort to educate the public, the Wetlands Education Center at the Bottoms will host a Butterfly Festival on Sept. 13. Monarch Watch will also host an open house at Foley Hall on the KU campus on Sept. 13.�Quivira National Wildlife Refuge will also host a similar event to tag monarchs on Sept. 20.

Martin said the free event will allow children and adults alike to help tag monarch butterflies, learn more about their migration, milkweed plants and other butterfly and insect species native to the area.

�During the festival, we are premaking seed 'bombs' composed of clay, compost, native wildflower and milkweed seeds and water to make them stick together, forming them into walnut-sized balls and drying,� Martin said. �The kids can use big slingshots to lob them into our prairie area and they can make some of their own to take home and 'plant' there. Should be a hoot.�

Martin said door prizes will be presented just before noon.

Nets and tags will be available for those who want to capture and tag monarch butterflies. Participants will receive information about the tagging process before heading out with a tagging leader to search for Monarch butterflies.

Additionally, she said, the center will have sign-ups for people to collect milkweed seed pods to send to Monarch Watch to help spread the seeds.

�It�s an effort to propagate milkweed and plant more to make up for the loss in the fields,� she said.

Martin said common milkweed isn�t pretty, but wild, swamp and butterfly milkweed varieties are fairly appealing and popular to plant in gardens.

�Even if you have a city lot you can do it,� she said. �Milkweed is so tough � once it�s established it pretty much takes care of itself.�

Lesson: Understanding the Decline of Monarch Butterfly Population

Introduction:
The decline of the monarch butterfly population has been a cause of concern for many years. The butterflies play an essential role in pollination and the ecosystem. In this lesson, we will learn about the reasons behind the decline of the monarch butterfly population and what can be done to help reverse the trend.

Section 1: Understanding the Decline of Monarch Butterfly Population

Topic 1: Why are Monarch Butterflies Declining?
- Monarch butterflies rely on milkweed to sustain them during their migration.
- Farming practices, including the use of weed-controlling chemicals, have drastically reduced the amount of milkweed across the Midwest.
- The reduction in milkweed has led to a decrease in the monarch butterfly population.

Topic 2: How Can We Help Reverse the Decline of Monarch Butterflies?
- Planting milkweed in gardens and fields can provide a source of food for the butterflies.
- Support organizations that promote the planting of milkweed and the conservation of monarch butterflies.
- Advocate for policies that protect the monarch butterfly and its habitat.

Section 2: Practical Examples Using Mathematical Abstractions and Real-World Scenarios

Topic 1: The Math Behind the Decline of Monarch Butterflies
- If the monarch butterfly population decreased from 20 hectares to 0.67 hectares between 1996 and 2021, what is the percentage decrease in the population?
- To calculate the percentage decrease, we can use the formula: Percentage Decrease = [(Initial Value - Final Value) / Initial Value] x 100%. In this case, [(20 - 0.67) / 20] x 100% = 93.5%. Therefore, there has been a 93.5% decrease in the monarch butterfly population.

Topic 2: Real-World Scenario: Planting Milkweed in Your Garden
- If you have a garden with an area of 100 square meters, how many milkweed plants can you plant to help the monarch butterflies?
- To determine the number of milkweed plants you can plant, we need to know the size of each plant. Let's assume each milkweed plant needs 0.5 square meters of space. Therefore, you can plant 200 milkweed plants in your garden.

Section 3: Self-Debating Discussions

Topic 1: Should Governments Provide Financial Incentives to Farmers Who Plant Milkweed Instead of Using Weed-Controlling Chemicals?
- Yes, governments should provide financial incentives to farmers who plant milkweed instead of using weed-controlling chemicals. This would encourage the growth of milkweed, which is essential for the survival of monarch butterflies.
- No, governments should not provide financial incentives to farmers who plant milkweed instead of using weed-controlling chemicals. This would be a waste of taxpayer money and could lead to higher food prices.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, understanding the decline of the monarch butterfly population is crucial for the conservation of these essential pollinators. By planting milkweed and supporting organizations that promote the conservation of monarch butterflies, we can help reverse the decline in their population.

Lesson: How to Distill Spirits

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about the process of distilling spirits. We will cover the history of distilling, the equipment used, and the steps involved in creating a variety of spirits such as gin, vodka, and whiskey.

Section 1: History of Distilling
- Distilling has been around for centuries and was originally used for medicinal purposes.
- The first recorded instance of distilling was in the 12th century in Italy.
- In the 16th century, distilling became popular in Scotland and Ireland, where it was used to make whiskey.

Section 2: Equipment Used in Distilling
- The main piece of equipment used in distilling is the still. There are two types of stills: pot stills and column stills.
- Pot stills are used to create spirits with a lot of flavor, while column stills are used to create lighter, more neutral spirits.
- Other equipment used in distilling includes fermentation tanks, condensers, and hydrometers.

Section 3: Steps Involved in Distilling Spirits
1. Fermentation: This is the process of converting sugar into alcohol. During this step, yeast is added to a mixture of water and sugar to create alcohol.
2. Distillation: This is the process of separating the alcohol from the liquid. The liquid is heated until it reaches a boiling point, and then the alcohol is collected as it evaporates.
3. Condensation: This is the process of collecting the alcohol vapor and turning it back into a liquid. The alcohol vapor is cooled and collected in a container.
4. Aging: Some spirits, such as whiskey, are aged in barrels for several years to add flavor and depth.

Section 4: Creating Different Types of Spirits
1. Gin: This spirit is made by distilling a mixture of botanicals, such as juniper berries, coriander, and citrus peel.
2. Vodka: This spirit is made by distilling a neutral grain spirit, such as wheat or corn.
3. Whiskey: This spirit is made by distilling a fermented mash of grains, such as barley or rye. It can be aged in barrels for several years to add flavor and depth.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned about the history of distilling, the equipment used, and the steps involved in creating a variety of spirits. We also learned about the different types of spirits, such as gin, vodka, and whiskey. By understanding these processes, we can apply our knowledge to create our own spirits or appreciate the work that goes into creating them.

text: One of the more interesting topics this week at Apple’s product event was the introduction of Liam, a robotic system for disassembly of iPhones:. When an iPhone is finally discarded, Liam detects, disassembles, and separate parts for recycling. Cobalt and lithium are recovered from the battery, gold and copper from the camera, platinum and silver from the main logic board, etc. Check out apple/recycling for more information.. Makes you wonder how far automated assembly of iPhones has progressed…. Update: Mashable has a detailed article about Liam. The full system is about as big as a medium-sized warehouse, has 29 different arms, and can process around 11 million iPhone 6S devices a year. Apple is continuing to fund significant R&D in automated recycling — apparently controlled disassembly makes it much easier to recycle the materials compared to conventional “shred-and-separate” methods.

Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new products. It is an essential part of sustainable living and environmental conservation. In this lesson, we will learn about the importance of recycling and how it contributes to a sustainable future.

Section 1: Importance of Recycling

Topic 1: Why Recycle?
Recycling helps conserve natural resources, reduce pollution, and save energy. When we recycle, we reduce the need for raw materials and reduce the amount of waste that goes into landfills. This helps prevent pollution and protect our environment.

Topic 2: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle
The three R's of sustainable living are reduce, reuse, and recycle. Reducing means using less, reusing means finding new ways to use items we already have, and recycling means turning waste into new products. These three steps help us live more sustainably and reduce our impact on the environment.

Topic 3: How Recycling Works
Recycling works by collecting waste materials and processing them into new products. This process involves sorting, cleaning, and breaking down the materials into their basic components. Then, these components are turned into new products, such as paper, plastic, and metal.

Section 2: Recycling at Home

Topic 1: Types of Recyclables
There are many types of materials that can be recycled, including paper, plastic, glass, aluminum, and electronics. You can recycle these materials at home by separating them from your regular trash and placing them in a recycling bin.

Topic 2: How to Recycle Properly
To recycle properly, you need to know what can be recycled and how to prepare it for recycling. For example, you should rinse out containers and remove any lids or caps before recycling them. You should also check with your local recycling program to see if they accept certain types of materials.

Topic 3: Benefits of Recycling at Home
Recycling at home can save money, reduce waste, and help protect the environment. By reducing the amount of waste that goes into landfills, we can reduce pollution and conserve natural resources. Additionally, recycling can save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Section 3: Recycling in Industry

Topic 1: Automated Recycling Systems
In industry, automated recycling systems are used to process large amounts of waste materials. These systems use advanced technology to sort and separate materials, making it easier to recycle them.

Topic 2: Benefits of Industrial Recycling
Industrial recycling helps reduce waste, conserve resources, and save energy. By recycling materials instead of using new ones, companies can reduce their carbon footprint and save money. Additionally, recycling creates jobs and supports local economies.

Topic 3: Examples of Industrial Recycling
Examples of industrial recycling include the recycling of scrap metal, plastic, and paper. These materials can be turned into new products, such as car parts, building materials, and packaging.

Conclusion:
Recycling is an essential part of living sustainably and protecting our environment. By reducing waste, conserving resources, and saving energy, we can create a better future for ourselves and future generations. By applying the principles of recycling at home and in industry, we can make a positive impact on the world around us.

text: Additional information. One of the most commonly requested aesthetic procedures in Asian countries is the Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty. This is a surgical technique that reshapes some of the anatomical differences found in the Asian upper eyelid to provide a more prominent crease within the eyelid. This procedure can enhance eyelids with a partial crease or a crease that is camouflaged by excess skin. A double upper eyelid may be developed in those without a crease. Asian Blepharoplasty is used to create a double eyelid crease by reshaping skin and tissues in the upper eyelid.

textbook:
Lesson: Introduction to Cosmetic Surgery - Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty

**Objective:** In this lesson, we will learn about the Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty, a common cosmetic surgery procedure in Asian countries. We will cover the reasons behind this procedure, the steps involved, and the potential benefits and risks associated with it.

**Section 1: Introduction**

Cosmetic surgery is a medical specialty focused on improving a person's appearance through surgical and medical techniques. While many people associate cosmetic surgery with procedures like breast augmentation or liposuction, there are also procedures aimed at correcting anatomical differences or enhancing features that are considered standard in one culture but not in another.

One such procedure is the Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty, which is commonly performed in Asian countries. This procedure involves reshaping the upper eyelid to create a more prominent crease, which can enhance the appearance of the eyes and provide a more defined look.

**Section 2: Reasons for Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty**

The Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty is often performed to address the differences in eyelid anatomy between Asians and people of other ethnicities. Asians tend to have a single eyelid (monolids), while people from other cultures typically have a double eyelid (double lids). The absence of a crease in Asian eyelids can make the eyes appear smaller and less defined, which can be a source of insecurity for some individuals.

In addition to aesthetic reasons, some individuals may choose to undergo Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty for functional reasons. For example, excess skin on the eyelid can interfere with vision or cause discomfort when wearing contact lenses.

**Section 3: Procedure**

The Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves reshaping the upper eyelid to create a more prominent crease. This is done by removing a strip of skin and muscle from the upper eyelid, known as the caruncle. The remaining skin is then pulled up and over the muscle, creating a fold that gives the appearance of a double eyelid.

The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia and takes around 30 minutes to complete. Patients can return home on the same day and are usually able to resume normal activities within a week.

**Section 4: Potential Benefits and Risks**

The potential benefits of Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty include improved appearance, increased confidence, and potentially improved vision in cases where excess skin was interfering with sight. However, as with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications associated with the procedure. These can include bleeding, infection, scarring, and changes in sensation such as numbness or tingling.

It is essential to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss the potential benefits and risks of the procedure and determine if it is the right choice for you.

**Section 5: Conclusion**

In summary, the Double Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty is a common cosmetic surgery procedure in Asian countries aimed at creating a more defined and prominent eyelid crease. While the procedure can improve appearance and self-confidence, it is essential to weigh the potential benefits and risks associated with any surgical procedure. By consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon, individuals can make an informed decision about whether this procedure is right for them.

Industrial cyclone dust collectors are widely used in various industries to collect and treat dry dust. They have a wide range of applications, including all kinds of dry dust collection and treatment. In this lesson, we will learn about the features and benefits of industrial cyclone dust collectors, their components, and how they work.

## Chapter 2: Components of an Industrial Cyclone Dust Collector

An industrial cyclone dust collector consists of several components that work together to collect and treat dry dust. These components include:

1. Inlet: The inlet is where the dust-laden air enters the cyclone.
2. Eye of the cyclone: This is the central part of the cyclone where the dust particles are separated from the air.
3. Outlet: The outlet is where the cleaned air exits the cyclone.
4. Filter bag: The filter bag is a crucial component of the cyclone dust collector, as it traps the dust particles that are separated from the air.
5. Dust collector: The dust collector is responsible for collecting the dust particles that have been separated from the air.

## Chapter 3: How Industrial Cyclone Dust Collectors Work

Industrial cyclone dust collectors work by using centrifugal force to separate dust particles from the air. When dust-laden air enters the cyclone, it spins at high speeds, creating a vortex. The heavier dust particles are pushed towards the wall of the cyclone, while the lighter air particles are pushed towards the center. This separation of dust particles from the air occurs due to the difference in mass between the two.

The collected dust particles are then trapped in the filter bag, which is usually made of a durable fabric that can withstand the abrasive nature of dust. The cleaned air is then released through the outlet, while the dust particles remain in the dust collector for later disposal.

## Chapter 4: Benefits of Using an Industrial Cyclone Dust Collector

There are several benefits to using an industrial cyclone dust collector, including:

1. Large treatment flue gas, strong load adaptability: Industrial cyclones can handle large volumes of flue gas, making them ideal for treating dust in various industries.
2. Guarantee year of the industrial cyclone dust collector: Industrial cyclones have a long lifespan, with a guarantee of at least 20 years.
3. No operation fee: Once installed, industrial cyclones do not require any ongoing fees for operation.
4. Less one-time investment: Industrial cyclones have a low initial cost compared to other dust collection methods.
5. High-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance: Industrial cyclones are made of durable materials that can withstand high temperatures and harsh environments.
6. Small land occupation can be designed according to site condition: Industrial cyclones require less space than other dust collection methods, making them ideal for sites with limited space.
7. Can be designed and manufactured according to the site situation to export, left and right side, the top four azimuth; it is convenient for the connection of flues; Equipment consists of upper and lower box, simple installation connection: Industrial cyclones can be customized to fit specific site conditions and requirements.

text: Over the years, historic unreinforced masonry vaults have been proved to be particularly vulnerable to dynamic actions and large displacements. This paper focuses on the investigation of the structural behaviour of a pavilion vault on spreading supports by means of experimental tests on a 3Dâprinted scale model made of discrete blocks. Both the collapse mechanisms and the ultimate displacement capacity are analysed. The reliability of this method for investigating the collapse of vaulted structures is validated by drawing analogies with crack patterns of real vaults. The experimental data are compared with the results obtained by thrust line analysis. A good prediction is obtained by making specific assumptions that take into account three-dimensional effects, which demonstrates the importance of thrust line analysis also for 3D collapse..
