The three outfits have agreed to share out Pirelli's preparation work for next year's wider tyres, which has required them to build hybrid cars to simulate the higher downforce levels expected for 2017.

And although the FIA and Pirelli have ensured that all data gathered from the tests will be shared with every team, Symonds still believes that there are big gains to be made from those outfits actually doing the tests.

"I think it's an enormous advantage and I think it's something we need to consider," he explained.

"Even in this sort of blind testing they do, there always is the advantage in that the comments you make steer the direction of the tyres.

"I think when Lotus were running the Pirelli test car, they went through a bit of a cold period, and I'm sure that it wasn't that they were saying 'make the tyres like this, make the tyres like that'.

"What they were doing, they were testing the tyre and saying 'well, I like that one and I don't like that one'. Based on that, Pirelli would say 'okay, we'd like to move forward with that one'.

"Now, another team might have said 'well, actually, we preferred the other way round' and then there'd have been more debate. I think those doing the testing have the advantage from that."

Tyre choices

Symonds believes that perhaps the biggest advantage for the three teams will be when it comes to picking the early allocation of tyre compounds for 2017 – which will have to be made before next season's first test has taken place.

"I think what is really unusual at this stage and really something we need to discuss is that we now have to choose our own tyres, we have put that tyre order in very very early, so our first two tyre orders - and I'm assuming a similar sort of calendar to now – will go in before Christmas," he said.

"By the time we start testing in February, I think we will have chosen about six races worth of tyres. We've never even seen them! We've never had them on the car, we know nothing about them.

"So, actually, while I feel that the rule that allows us to choose the tyres is a really good one and it has spiced up the racing, I really think that, if that rule is in place for the first half of next year, the advantage that Ferrari, Mercedes and Red Bull can get is really enormous.

"I don't want them to get rid of the rule, because it's a good one, but to acknowledge that not all the teams could afford to go and do the testing, to mitigate that a little bit, I really think that we need to do something."

Cost limits

Williams was one of those outfits that was in contention to conduct some of the Pirelli testing, but in the end the team was unable to afford to undertake such a project.

Symonds added: "We did a lot of design work on it, but we couldn't get full clarity on what the test regime was and, when we started to get towards it, costed it out, we just simply couldn't afford to do it. It's too expensive for a team like us.

"Pirelli are paying something towards it, but don't cover all the costs - so we just can't afford to do it.

"And that's not a great thing for the sport, is it? That you can find out about the tyres, but only if you've got enough money to do it."

This can lead to faster development of the car and better performance on the track. Secondly, sharing data can help to level the playing field between teams with different budgets and resources. By sharing information, smaller teams can benefit from the expertise of larger teams without having to invest heavily in research and development.

The Challenges of Sharing Data:

However, sharing data is not without its challenges. There are concerns about intellectual property and confidentiality. Teams may be reluctant to share their secrets with their rivals, fearing that it could give them an advantage over them. Additionally, there may be concerns about the accuracy and reliability of the data shared, as well as the potential for misinterpretation or misuse of the information.

The Importance of Critical Thinking in Analyzing Data:

Critical thinking is essential when analyzing data in motorsports. It is crucial to question the validity of the data, consider alternative explanations, and evaluate the relevance and reliability of the information. This requires a deep understanding of the sport, the car, and the technology involved.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, sharing data can provide significant benefits to teams in motorsports. However, it is essential to address the challenges associated with sharing data, such as confidentiality and accuracy. Critical thinking is also crucial when analyzing data to ensure that the information is used effectively and accurately.

Lesson: How to Analyze High School Football Data

**Introduction:** In this lesson, we will learn how to analyze high school football data using AHSFHS.org website. We will explore different aspects of the data, such as team performance, player statistics, and game results. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to interpret and analyze high school football data like a pro!

**Section 1: Analyzing Team Performance**

- **Team Performance Metrics:** To analyze team performance, we can use various metrics such as winning percentage, point differential, and average yards per game. These metrics help us understand how well a team is performing compared to its opponents.
- **Example:** Let's take the Wadley team as an example. According to the data on AHSFHS.org, they have won all their games this season with an average margin of victory of 45.5 points. This indicates that they are a very strong team and are likely to continue their winning streak.
- **Questions to Ask:** What is the winning percentage of each team? How many points does each team score on average per game?
- **Definitions:** Point Differential - The difference between the number of points scored by a team and the number of points scored against them. Winning Percentage - The percentage of games won by a team out of the total number of games played.

**Section 2: Analyzing Player Statistics**

- **Player Statistics:** We can also analyze player statistics such as rushing yards, passing yards, and tackles made. These statistics help us understand the individual performance of each player and how they contribute to their team's success.
- **Example:** Let's take the player John Doe from Wadley team as an example. He has rushed for 1,000 yards this season with an average of 8.3 yards per carry. This indicates that he is a very effective runner and is a key player in his team's offense.
- **Questions to Ask:** Who are the top performers in each position? What is the average yards per carry for each team?
- **Definitions:** Rushing Yards - The total number of yards gained by a team through rushing plays. Passing Yards - The total number of yards gained by a team through passing plays. Tackles Made - The total number of tackles made by a player or team.

**Section 3: Analyzing Game Results**

- **Game Results:** We can also analyze game results such as the final score, possession time, and turnovers. These statistics help us understand how each game was played and which team dominated the game.
- **Example:** Let's take the game between Wadley and Maplesville as an example. According to the data on AHSFHS.org, Wadley won the game with a final score of 56-35. They had possession of the ball for 25 minutes while Maplesville had possession for only 13 minutes. This indicates that Wadley had control over the game and were able to maintain possession of the ball.
- **Questions to Ask:** What was the final score of each game? Who had possession of the ball for the longest time?
- **Definitions:** Final Score - The total number of points scored by both teams at the end of the game. Possession Time - The amount of time a team has possession of the ball during the game. Turnovers - The total number of times a team loses possession of the ball due to interceptions or fumbles.

text: Square-Enix’s President Yoichi Wada talked to Nikkei, and in the interview he seems to gush on and on about the Wii. First off, he states that the main platforms that Square-Enix is focusing on are the Wii, DS, and PS3. Much of their capital, as well as infrastructure is set up for both Nintendo platforms.. Square-Enix is also taken aback by the runaway success of the Wii. They originally thought that the Wii and PS3 would live side-by-side, but now they say that the platform’s users will determine where Square-Enix goes. So basically, Square-Enix will be following where the money goes.. Lastly, Mr. Wada believes that his team can do a lot more with the Wii than has already been done. He would love to talk with Iwata about his ideas.. Man, remember when Wada had a couple negative things to say about the Wii (here and here)? Someone must have slipped something in his drink!

text: “Strong churlish purging Pills”. This article looks at the frequency and use of sequences of two or more attributive adjectives in early modern medical writing in English. Taking as a starting point the observation that long sequences of premodifiers are one of the many linguistic features that add complexity to present-day academic writing, I examine the situation diachronically and pragmatically during the period when the scholastic style of thought gave way to empiricism. The study will argue that while a modest increase in multi-adjectival premodifiers can be observed over the timeline, the observation can be largely attributed to pragmatic contexts which arose from the practice of early modern medicine and which, by and large, cannot be considered a predictor of present-day scientific style..

Lesson: Introduction to Scientific Writing

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
In this lesson, we will learn about scientific writing and its importance in conveying information in the field of medicine. Scientific writing is a style of writing that is used to communicate research findings, theories, and other scientific information. It is characterized by its clarity, precision, and objectivity.

## Section 2: Practical Examples
Let's look at an example of scientific writing. The following sentence is a description of a drug:

"The drug is a strong churlish purging pill."

This sentence is not written in a scientific style because it is not clear, precise, or objective. Instead, it uses subjective language and is not specific enough to convey useful information about the drug.

Now let's rewrite the sentence in a scientific style:

"The drug is a potent emetic agent with strong purgative effects."

This sentence is written in a scientific style because it uses precise language and is objective. It clearly communicates the drug's effects without any ambiguity.

## Section 3: Real-World Scenarios
Scientific writing is important in the field of medicine because it allows researchers to communicate their findings to other professionals in a clear and concise manner. For example, a doctor may write a report on a patient's condition, using scientific language to describe the symptoms and treatment options. This allows other doctors to understand the patient's condition and make informed decisions about their care.

## Glossary
- Scientific writing: A style of writing that is used to communicate research findings, theories, and other scientific information.
- Clarity: The quality of being easy to understand or perceive.
- Precision: The quality of being accurate and exact.
- Objectivity: The quality of being fair and unbiased.
- Emetic: Causing vomiting.
- Purgative: Causing bowel cleansing.

## Conclusion
In this lesson, we learned about scientific writing and its importance in the field of medicine. We looked at practical examples and real-world scenarios to illustrate how scientific writing is used in a variety of contexts. By using clear, precise, and objective language, scientists can communicate their findings effectively and accurately.

**Introduction**

In today's fast-paced world, managing time effectively is crucial to achieving our goals and maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Microsoft Outlook is a powerful tool that can help us stay organized and productive. In this lesson, we will learn how to customize Outlook, prioritize tasks, set achievable goals, and collaborate effectively with others.

**Section 1: Customizing Outlook**

- **Theoretical Concept:** Outlook has several features that can be customized to suit individual preferences. These include setting up folders, creating custom views, and using categories to organize emails.
- **Practical Example:** Let's say you receive a lot of emails from a particular sender who doesn't always send relevant information. You can create a rule to move these emails directly to a specific folder, such as "Low Priority," so that you don't have to deal with them immediately.
- **Discussion:** Why is it important to customize Outlook? How does it affect productivity and time management?

**Section 2: Prioritizing Tasks**

- **Theoretical Concept:** Prioritizing tasks involves identifying the most important tasks and completing them first. This ensures that urgent and essential tasks are completed on time, while less important tasks are not neglected entirely.
- **Practical Example:** Let's say you have a to-do list with ten items. You prioritize them based on their importance and deadlines. You decide to complete the most important task first, followed by the second most important one, and so on.
- **Discussion:** How do you decide which tasks are more important than others? What if two tasks have equal importance?

**Section 3: Setting Achievable Goals**

- **Theoretical Concept:** Setting achievable goals involves breaking down larger goals into smaller, manageable tasks. This helps to track progress and ensure that the final goal is achieved.
- **Practical Example:** Let's say your goal is to increase sales by 20% this quarter. You break down this goal into smaller tasks such as contacting potential clients, following up with existing clients, and analyzing sales data.
- **Discussion:** How do you ensure that your goals are achievable? What happens if you don't achieve your goals?

**Glossary:**

- Customization: The process of adjusting Outlook settings to suit individual preferences.
- Prioritization: The process of identifying the most important tasks and completing them first.
- Goal-setting: The process of breaking down larger goals into smaller, manageable tasks.

**Conclusion**

Mastering Microsoft Outlook for time management involves customizing the tool, prioritizing tasks, and setting achievable goals. By implementing these strategies, we can improve our productivity, reduce stress, and achieve our desired outcomes. Remember to apply these skills to other areas of your life as well!

**Self-Debate:**

Is it necessary to customize Outlook to manage time effectively? Why or why not?

Lucas Pope is an important name in modern gaming—not only did he help bring us Uncharted and Uncharted 2, but he's also responsible for the indie smash hit Papers, Please, which managed to pack a surprising amount of storytelling and emotion into what is effectively a document stamping simulator.

But we're particularly fond of Pope's 2018 murder mystery Return of the Obra Dinn , where players must figure out what happened to all 60 souls aboard a ship that has turned up in port bereft of life (think sort of a mash-up of Clue and Event Horizon). The game's low-fi monochrome graphical style is meant to evoke '80s- and '90s-era Macintosh adventure games, and it works stunningly well—the stark polygonal shapes and 1-bit stipple-shading are instantly evocative of the era. (For me, firing up Obra Dinn triggers powerful memories of hours spent at my high school computer lab, eschewing real work to play a seemingly endless pile of HyperCard adventures . Though I fought on the side of the IBMs in the Great BBS Platform Wars of the early '90s, I just couldn't keep my paws off of those damn Macs.)

In Obra Dinn, players use a small device on or near each of the ship's 60 bodies to show them a brief moment in time where that person died, and the player must then make sure that the means of that person's death is properly recorded in a logbook. It's a mechanism that mixes together elements of logic puzzles and text adventures, and while Pope put a lot of time and thought into the pick-a-word sentence builder and the various semantic structures players might use to frame their murder theories ("Tom knifed Bob" and "Tom stabbed Bob" and "Tom cut Bob" all have to be interpreted by the game as holding the same underlying meaning), there was one monster he wasn't prepared to face: localization.

Words are hard

Because the logbook-and-sentences gameplay element was crucial to the type of experience Pope wanted in the game, Pope had polished the mechanism so that it worked exactly how he wanted it to work—in English. But because colloquialisms and even basic grammatical structures vary wildly between different languages, Pope had to spend an enormous amount of time and effort re-working this particular input system and its lists of verbs and subjects so that they were compatible with non-English languages, with gendered nouns and verb forms that change in different ways.

The effort was successful, but Pope has some words of wisdom about spending a lot of time and effort on designing a text-based input scheme without thinking about localization from the beginning—and in a word, his advice is "don't."

(If you'd like to know a bit more about Lucas, our intrepid reporter Sam Machkovech sat down with Pope earlier this year and talked at length about a long career spent creating games.)

Reversible resistivity-switching (RRS) materials may be used as storage elements in memory arrays. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 7,812,404, filed May 9, 2005 and titled “NON-VOLATILE MEMORY CELL COMPRISING A DIODE AND A RESISTANCE-SWITCHING MATERIAL”, which is hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, describes a rewriteable non-volatile memory cell that includes a diode coupled in series with an RRS material such as a metal oxide or metal nitride.
Modulation of the resistivity of metal oxide and other RRS materials requires use of voltages and/or currents that may be difficult to achieve efficiently with conventional diodes, particularly when large arrays of RRS material storage elements are employed (e.g., such as when a low leakage current is desired for “unselected” storage elements in the array). Accordingly, a need exists for diodes with I-V characteristics that are compatible with metal oxide or other RRS material storage elements and/or arrays, and for methods of forming such diodes.

Lesson: Reversible Resistivity-Switching Materials and Diodes

Introduction:
Reversible resistivity-switching (RRS) materials are used in memory arrays because they can change their resistivity depending on the applied voltage or current. This property makes them suitable for non-volatile memory cells. In this lesson, we will learn about RRS materials, diodes, and their compatibility.

Core Value:
The compatibility of diodes with RRS materials and arrays is crucial for efficient operation of memory cells.

Section 1: RRS Materials and Diodes

Topic 1: RRS Materials
- RRS materials are materials that can change their resistivity reversibly under the application of an external stimulus such as voltage or current.
- Examples of RRS materials include metal oxides and metal nitrides.
- The resistivity change in RRS materials is due to the rearrangement of atoms or ions within the material.

Topic 2: Diodes
- A diode is a two-terminal electronic component that allows current to flow in one direction only.
- Diodes are made up of a p-type semiconductor and an n-type semiconductor joined together.
- Diodes are used in memory cells to allow current to flow in one direction only, preventing damage to the RRS material.

Section 2: Compatibility of Diodes with RRS Materials and Arrays

Topic 1: Voltage and Current Requirements
- To modulate the resistivity of RRS materials, voltages and currents must be applied.
- Conventional diodes may not be able to provide the required voltages and currents efficiently, especially when large arrays of RRS material storage elements are employed.
- This can lead to leakage current in unselected storage elements, reducing the efficiency of the memory array.

Topic 2: Compatibility of Diodes with RRS Materials
- The I-V characteristics of diodes must be compatible with RRS materials to ensure efficient modulation of resistivity.
- Diodes with low leakage current are desirable for unselected storage elements in the array.
- High-voltage diodes may be required to modulate the resistivity of RRS materials effectively.

Section 3: Methods of Forming Compatible Diodes

Topic 1: Material Selection
- The choice of diode material is crucial for compatibility with RRS materials.
- Materials with similar bandgaps and thermal properties to RRS materials are preferred.
- Materials with low leakage current and high breakdown voltage are also desirable.

Topic 2: Diode Structure
- The structure of the diode can be modified to improve compatibility with RRS materials.
- For example, the addition of a thin layer of RRS material on the diode can help reduce leakage current.
- The diode structure can also be optimized to provide the required voltages and currents for modulating the resistivity of RRS materials.

Conclusion:
In summary, the compatibility of diodes with RRS materials and arrays is essential for efficient operation of memory cells. By selecting appropriate diode materials and optimizing their structure, it is possible to create diodes that are compatible with RRS materials and arrays. This will enable the efficient modulation of resistivity in RRS materials and improve the performance of non-volatile memory cells.

A family history study of schizophrenia spectrum disorders suggests new candidate genes in schizophrenia and autism.
To limit genetic heterogeneity, this study focused on the widely extended pedigrees of Ashkenazi Jewish schizophrenic and autistic probands, to determine if similar causal mechanisms might obtain for both conditions. At least two previous epidemiological studies have demonstrated increased risk for schizophrenia in Ashkenazi Jews. The hypothesis posed is that increased prevalence of various rare autosomal recessive diseases among the Ashkenazim might contribute to the increased vulnerability to schizophrenia and to autism in this large genetic isolate. Rates of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and bleeding disorders were significantly increased among relatives of schizophrenic and autistic probands, compared to relatives of normal probands. These results suggest new candidate loci in schizophrenia and autism, particularly the chromosome 15q23-24 locus of the hexosaminidase A gene, causing various GM2 gangliosidoses, and the 21q22.1-q22.2 loci of the antioxidant, superoxide dismutase gene, and a cytokine receptor gene.

Lesson: Introduction to Genetics and Genetic Disorders

### Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

Genetics is the study of genes and their function in living organisms. Genetic disorders are caused by changes or mutations in an individual's DNA. These mutations can be inherited from parents or can occur spontaneously during an individual's development. In this lesson, we will learn about the basics of genetics and genetic disorders, including the role of genes in inheritance and the types of genetic mutations that can lead to disorders.

### Section 2: Practical Examples and Real-World Scenarios

Let's consider the example of cystic fibrosis, a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the CFTR gene. This gene is responsible for producing a protein that helps regulate the movement of salt and water in and out of cells. When the CFTR gene is mutated, the protein does not function properly, leading to a buildup of thick mucus in the lungs and other organs. This buildup can cause chronic lung infections and other health problems. Cystic fibrosis is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, meaning that an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the disorder.

### Section 3: Self-Debating Discussions

Now let's consider the topic of gene therapy as a potential treatment for genetic disorders. Gene therapy involves introducing a healthy copy of a gene into a patient's cells to replace or repair the mutated gene. One potential challenge of gene therapy is ensuring that the introduced gene is functional and integrated correctly into the patient's DNA. Additionally, some patients may have immune responses to the virus used to deliver the healthy gene, which could reduce the effectiveness of the treatment. Finally, gene therapy may be more effective for some types of genetic disorders than others, depending on the nature of the mutation and the specific gene involved.

### Glossary
- Gene: A segment of DNA that codes for a specific protein or RNA molecule.
- Mutation: A change or alteration in a gene or DNA sequence.
- Autosomal recessive: A type of inheritance where both copies of a gene in each cell must have mutations for the disorder to be expressed.
- Gene therapy: A treatment that involves introducing a healthy copy of a gene into a patient's cells to replace or repair a mutated gene.

### Conclusion

In this lesson, we have learned about the basics of genetics and genetic disorders, including the role of genes in inheritance and the types of genetic mutations that can lead to disorders. We also explored the example of cystic fibrosis and considered the potential challenges and benefits of gene therapy as a treatment option. By understanding these concepts, we can better appreciate the complexity of genetic disorders and the ongoing efforts to develop effective treatments.

4. Herbal supplements: These are made from plant extracts and have been used for centuries to treat various health conditions.

5. Probiotics: These are live bacteria and yeasts that are good for your digestive system and can help with digestion and immune function.

## Section 4: Benefits of Supplements
Taking supplements can have many benefits, including:

1. Improving overall health: Supplements can help fill gaps in your diet and provide essential nutrients that your body needs to function properly.

2. Boosting energy levels: Some supplements, such as vitamin B12, can help increase energy levels by supporting the production of red blood cells.

3. Promoting weight loss: Certain supplements, such as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), have been shown to promote weight loss by reducing fat absorption and increasing fat burning.

4. Reducing the risk of chronic diseases: Many supplements, such as omega-3 fatty acids, have been shown to reduce the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and cancer.

5. Enhancing mental health: Some supplements, such as St. John's wort, have been shown to improve mood and reduce symptoms of depression.

## Section 5: Conclusion
In conclusion, supplements can be a valuable addition to your health routine, providing essential nutrients and improving overall health. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any supplement regimen to ensure that it's appropriate for your individual needs. Additionally, always read labels carefully and follow dosage instructions to avoid potential side effects or interactions with other medications.

 The château-fort entrance and its 15th-century towers, on the promontory at the west of the village.
 Church of Saint Leger, bishop of Autun (616–678). First documented in 1127. The present building dates form the end of the 15th century and is built of local stone. The tower underwent restoration in 1731 and the present bells were installed in 1821 and 1868.
 The old sacristy. On the south side of the church and along with the nearby presbytery, built in the second half of the 19th century. Since December 1998, it has housed the Mairie.
 The early 16th century chapel of ‘Notre-Dame du Bon Secours’ at Estocq, a hamlet of the commune.  It originally belonged to the Thierry family, fiefs of  Argenlieu - an old commune now occupied by Monsures and by Rogy, to the edge of the commune of  Gouy-les-Groseillers. The stone quarried from the locality was used to build the old manor and the chapel at Estocq.
 The chapel of  ‘Notre-Dame des Victoires’ was built in 1858 by Charlemagne Boyeldieu, a descendant of General Louis-Léger Boyeldieu, who was born at Monsures in 1774. Since 2004, the chapel has housed the commune’s multi-media library.
 The ‘Coulée verte’. A nature trail for hikers and riders, based on the route of the old railway, wends its way along the valley of the Selle river for about 20 miles, from Crèvecœur-le-Grand to Vers-sur-Selles.

Lesson: Introduction to Communes in France

**Objective:** To understand the concept of communes in France and their significance in the country's political organization.

**Glossary:**
- Commune: A municipality in France, equivalent to a town or village.
- Department: A territorial division of France, similar to a county or state in the United States.
- Hauts-de-France: A region in northern France.
- A16 autoroute: A major highway in France.
- Seigneurs: Feudal lords in medieval France.

**Section 1: Introduction**
Communes are the basic units of local government in France. They are self-governing entities that provide essential services to their residents, such as garbage collection, street lighting, and public safety. Communes can vary in size from small villages with only a few hundred inhabitants to large cities with tens of thousands of people. In this lesson, we will explore the history, geography, and importance of communes in France.

**Section 2: History**
Communes have a long history in France, dating back to the Middle Ages. During this time, the country was divided into feudal states, where lords ruled over their lands and their subjects. However, as the power of the monarchs grew, the lords lost much of their authority, and the king began to appoint officials to govern the land. This led to the creation of communes, which were self-governing entities that elected their own officials. Over time, these communes evolved into the modern-day municipalities we know today.

**Section 3: Geography**
Communes can be found throughout France, from the coastal regions of the north to the mountainous regions of the south. They are typically located near major transportation routes, such as highways or railways, to facilitate trade and commerce. Some communes are located in rural areas, while others are in urban centers. The size and population of a commune can vary greatly, from small villages with only a few hundred residents to large cities with hundreds of thousands of people.

**Section 4: Importance**
Communes play an important role in the political organization of France. They are responsible for providing essential services to their residents, such as sanitation, education, and healthcare. They also have their own elected officials, who are responsible for managing the commune's finances and making decisions on behalf of the community. Additionally, communes are an important part of France's administrative structure, as they are the smallest unit of government recognized by the country's constitution.

**Section 5: Conclusion**
In conclusion, communes are an essential part of France's political organization. They provide essential services to their residents and play an important role in the country's administrative structure. By understanding the history, geography, and importance of communes in France, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the complexities of this nation's political organization.

text: A couple came to the Northern Optics retail outlet at Barton’s Waters Edge visitors centre with a few requirements. They were looking for a lightweight pair of binoculars for taking abroad. 10x magnification and close focus were on the list of important factors. After trying out a few sets, they went for the Hawke Frontier PC 10×32 binoculars.. The Frontier PC 10x32s ticked all the boxes. Handing was great, optics were impressive, and the close focus was much better than expected. It was a close run thing between these and the slightly larger 42mm versions. The lightness of the 10x32s was the deciding factor.. The couple were also very happy with the hard case (ideal for travelling) and the thick padded neck strap.

Lesson: How to Choose Binoculars

Introduction:
Binoculars are a useful tool for observing distant objects. They are commonly used for bird watching, hunting, and astronomy. In this lesson, we will learn about the different types of binoculars, their features, and how to choose the right pair for your needs.

Section 1: Types of Binoculars
There are two main types of binoculars: porro prism and roof prism. Porro prism binoculars have a wider field of view and are usually more affordable. Roof prism binoculars are more compact and have a straight barrel design.

Section 2: Features to Consider
When choosing binoculars, there are several features to consider:

1. Magnification: The power of the binoculars is measured in magnification, which is the number of times the image is magnified. Higher magnification means you can see smaller details, but it also makes the image shakier.

2. Objective lens size: The size of the objective lens determines the amount of light that enters the binoculars. Larger lenses allow more light, which results in a brighter image.

3. Close focus: This is the distance at which the binoculars can focus on an object. Some binoculars have a close focus of just a few feet, while others can focus on objects up to a mile away.

4. Field of view: This is the area you can see through the binoculars. A wider field of view means you can see more of the scene without having to move the binoculars.

5. Eye relief: This is the distance between your eye and the eyepiece. If you wear glasses, you may need a longer eye relief to keep your glasses from fogging up.

Section 3: Choosing the Right Pair of Binoculars
Now that we know what features to look for, let's consider some specific use cases:

1. Bird watching: For bird watching, you'll want a pair of binoculars with a magnification of 8x or less. Look for a wide field of view and a close focus of a few feet.

2. Hunting: Hunters often need to quickly locate and identify game. A pair of binoculars with a magnification of 10x or higher and a large objective lens will help you see further and identify targets more easily.

3. Astronomy: Astronomers use binoculars to observe the night sky. Look for a pair with a high magnification and a large objective lens to capture as much light as possible.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned about the different types of binoculars, their features, and how to choose the right pair for your needs. By considering the magnification, objective lens size, close focus, field of view, and eye relief, you can find the perfect pair of binoculars for your next adventure.

Lesson: The Importance of Energy, Economic Growth, and Immigration

### Section 1: Introduction

In this lesson, we will explore the importance of energy, economic growth, and immigration. We will learn about how these three factors are interconnected and how they impact our daily lives. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to understand the significance of these issues and how they can be applied to real-world scenarios.

### Section 2: Energy and Economic Growth

Energy is an essential component of our daily lives. It powers our homes, businesses, and transportation systems. Without energy, our modern way of life would not be possible. In addition, energy production creates jobs and stimulates economic growth.

One example of energy production is oil drilling. Oil platforms like Robert Jordan's Oil Platform provide a reliable source of energy that helps power our economy. This energy source creates hundreds of thousands of jobs and provides consistent energy that keeps our economy running smoothly.

Energy production also has a ripple effect on other industries. For example, when there is a demand for oil, other industries such as construction and manufacturing benefit from the increased demand for their services.

However, it is essential to balance energy production with environmental concerns. We must ensure that our energy sources are sustainable and do not harm the environment. This can be achieved through investments in renewable energy sources like solar and wind power.

### Section 3: Immigration

Immigration is another critical issue that impacts our economy and society. Immigrants bring new ideas, culture, and skills to our country, which enriches our society. They also contribute to our economy by starting businesses, creating jobs, and paying taxes.

However, it is essential to have a strong immigration policy that ensures that all immigrants enter the country legally and safely. Robert Jordan's strong immigration policy shuts down all illegal immigration points while expanding the amount of ALL vetted immigrants to enter legally and safely.

A strong immigration policy benefits both the immigrants and the receiving country. It ensures that immigrants are vetted and screened to protect national security. It also ensures that immigrants have access to resources and support to integrate into their new community.

### Section 4: Conclusion

In conclusion, energy, economic growth, and immigration are interconnected issues that impact our daily lives. By understanding these issues, we can make informed decisions about how to create a better future for ourselves and our communities.

By applying the concepts learned in this lesson, we can work towards creating a stronger economy, a more sustainable energy source, and a more inclusive society. Remember to think critically and ask questions to deepen your understanding of these issues.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an exposure apparatus, specifically, to an exposure apparatus for exposing a photosensitive material to light emitted from an array of light emitting elements.
2. Description of the Related Art
An organic EL (electroluminescent) element using a fluorescent organic material as a light emitting layer has the advantages that it can be manufactured more easily than other light emitting elements, it can constitute a thin and lightweight light emitting device, etc., and thereby, research and development as a thin display element has been conventionally promoted. Recently, since an organic EL element achieving high performance also in luminous brightness, luminous efficiency, and durability comparable to a light emitting diode (LED) has been obtained, application to an exposure apparatus for exposing a photosensitive material such as a silver halide photosensitive material is under study.
As shown in FIG. 12, for example, an exposure apparatus using organic EL elements comprises an organic EL element array in which plural sets (two sets in FIG. 12) of rows of elements, which are formed by arranging plural organic EL elements 80 emitting light in respective colors of red (R), green (G), and blue (B) with respect to each color along a main scanning direction, are arranged in a sub scanning direction with the rows of elements of three colors R, G, and B as a set. Note that, in FIG. 12, the organic EL elements 80 of the respective colors R, G, and B are shown by being assigned with letters of the alphabet (R/G/B) indicating corresponding colors at ends of signs for distinction. A latent image of a full color image is formed by moving this exposure apparatus relative to a photosensitive material.
The luminous intensities of the organic EL elements 80R, 80G, and 80B of the respective colors R, G, and B are determined according to exposure sensitivity of the photosensitive material. However, in the case where luminous intensities are different among elements that constitute the organic EL element array, a difference is caused in degradation amounts, and color tone is drifted out gradually (color balance is deteriorated) with use of the exposure apparatus. As a result, a method for making the magnitude of degradation constant by using an organic element array, in which a number of white organic EL elements that have substantially the same light amount of emission are arranged, and color filters of the respective colors R, G, and B for optimizing the exposure amounts with respect to each color by adjusting transmittance has been proposed (for example, see Japanese Patent Laid-Open (JP-A) No. 2000-103114, Paragraph 0026). This method is based on the concept that white organic EL elements constituted by the same material have the same degradation rate and degradation amount.
Here, the relationship between emission spectral intensity of an organic EL element and spectral sensitivity of a photosensitive material is discussed. FIG. 13A shows emission spectral intensity of a white organic EL element, FIG. 13B shows spectral transmittance of a color filter, and FIG. 13C shows exposure spectral intensity for exposing the photosensitive material to light. Further, FIG. 13D shows spectral sensitivity of a silver halide photosensitive material (negative type) for general photographs, and FIG. 13E shows color optical density of the photosensitive material.
The color optical densities (Dr, Dg, Db) of the photosensitive material in the respective colors shown in FIG. 13E are derived by multiplying “exposure spectral intensity” shown in FIG. 13C and “spectral sensitivity of photosensitive material” shown in FIG. 13D and integrating with respect to wavelength, as expressed by the following equation.densities of respective colors (Dr, Dg, Db)=∫(exposure spectral intensity×spectral sensitivity of photosensitive material)dλ
In addition, the exposure spectral intensity shown in FIG. 13C is a product of “emission spectral intensity” shown in FIG. 13A and “spectral transmittance of filter” shown in FIG. 13B. Therefore, the respective color optical densities of the photosensitive material are expressed by the following equation.densities of respective colors (Dr, Dg, Db)=∫(emission spectral intensity×spectral transmittance of filter×spectral sensitivity of photosensitive material)dλ
However, as seen from FIGS. 13A to 13E, the silver halide photosensitive material for general photographs has sensitivity to R, G, and B light as R:G:B≈1:10:70, and the sensitivity ratio greatly differs. Therefore, in the case where the exposure amount is optimized with respect to each of the colors R, G, and B by adjusting transmittance by color filters, there is no choice but to match the amount of light to that of R color of the lowest sensitivity. Therefore, in the case where the method disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open (JP-A) No. 2000-103114, Paragraph 0026 is applied to the photosensitive material having an extreme variance in sensitivity ratio between R, G, and B such as the photosensitive material for general photographs, energy utilization efficiency becomes extremely low.
Further, even if the same types of organic EL elements are used, in the case where the multiple exposure sequence, in which multiple tone exposure is carried out by exposing the same pixel to light a number of times, is performed, a difference is caused in at least one of the luminous intensity and the emission time among the elements that constitute the organic EL element array. If the luminous intensity is the same, but the emission time is different, the cumulative emission amounts of the respective elements become different, and thereby, a difference in the degradation amount is caused. As a result, there is a problem that the luminous intensity varies among the elements that constitute the organic EL element array to generate streaks and deteriorate color balance, as shown in FIG. 14. Especially, in the case where the same image is exposed to light a number of times, the emission amounts of the organic EL elements in certain positions become larger and a significant difference in degradation amount is caused among elements.
On the other hand, in order to deal with the above described problems, it is conceivable that the above described luminous intensities may be made constant by correcting light amounts of the individual organic EL elements. However, there is a problem that a complex apparatus is required in order to measure and correct the light amounts of several thousands to several millions of organic EL elements one by one, and the cost of the apparatus increases proportionately. Further, there is another problem that the time required for correction becomes longer and the productivity becomes lower.
Thus, there is a need in the art to solve the above described problems, and an object of the invention is to provide an exposure apparatus capable of suppressing the deviation of the color balance by a simple construction. In addition, another object of the invention is to provide an exposure apparatus capable of implementing exposure with high energy utilization efficiency.
