Introduction Shakespeare Search Tools (with explanations) Quick Table of Shakespeare Search Tools General Internet Search Tools ... Libraries and Archives Introduction Top On this page I have grouped specifically Shakespearean search tools. There are some surprisingly good ones. I have provided an annotated section which describes them, followed by a "quick" table to the sites, for repeat visitors who do not wish to bother wading through the annotations. After the specifically Shakespearean sites, I have provided a guide to the more general best search tools on the web. Regarding these, I have grouped them into search engines and subject catalogs , though some sites are a mixture of both. A true search engine attempts to build indices to "all that is out there" via automated information gathering programs known as robots or spiders, and then lets you search the indices by keyword(s). The best allow sophisticated searching using booleans, proximity operators and logical groupings of search terms. The size and quality of the indices vary greatly, and a search on the same term(s) using different engines invariably returns different results. The best search engine by far is Google A second class of search tools is like a traditional library subject catalog

43. The William Blake Archive: The Archive At A Glance for the first time in any medium) advanced imagesearching tools that are yield anaugmented Blake considerably larger than the one most familiar to students http://www.blakearchive.org/public/about/glance/

[See below for Getting Started with the Archive Over the course of two centuries, respect for the prints, paintings, and poems of William Blake (1757-1827) has increased to a degree that would have astonished his contemporaries. Today both his poetry and visual art in several media are admired by a global audience. In the broadest terms, the William Blake Archive is a contemporary response to the needs of this dispersed and various audience of readers and viewers and to the corresponding needs of the collections where Blake's original works are currently held. A free site on the World Wide Web since 1996 ( http://www.blakearchive.org ), the Blake Archive was conceived as an international public resource that would provide unified access to major works of visual and literary art that are highly disparate, widely dispersed, and more and more often severely restricted as a result of their value, rarity, and extreme fragility. A growing number of contributors , currently 18 American and British institutions and a major private collector, have given the Archive permission to include thousands of Blake's images and texts without fees. At this writing the Archive contains fully searchable and scalable electronic editions of 48 copies of 18 of Blake's 19 illuminated works in the context of full, up-to-date bibliographic information about each image, scrupulous "diplomatic" transcriptions of all texts, detailed descriptions of all images, and extensive bibliographies. By Spring 2003, the Archive will contain one copy of all the illuminated books, including the longest

A 'Prophet'able Learning Experience by Catherine Chung It wasn't until after several months of working here that I truly began to feel like an integral part of the teaching process, and an important figure in my students lives, inside or outside of the classroom. Living alone and abroad in itself is a large task to deal with. Being far from the things most familiar to me, I took to reading that which made my mind and heart feel at home, despite my physical distance from the life I had left behind. In my suitcase, I had brought with me the writings of the authors and poets I held dearest; sweet friends to comfort me at any hour, on the days of my most extreme solitude. Sometimes these friends would help me combat the bitter homesickness I felt. Other times, they were a pleasant reminder that indeed I was still literate, amidst the perplexing kanji complexities of this foreign land. Occasionally, they would even bring out an idea on how to introduce a new English grammar lesson to my students. An afternoon with Kahlil Gibran, one of the 'literary friends' I had carried with me overseas, was the seed to an amazing relationship between my students and me, sparking an avid interest in sharing the beauties and intricacies of learning a foreign language. One afternoon, I was sitting outside after classes had ended, reading while waiting for my bus to arrive. Sitting on a bench with

Publication details are further split into Author, Publication, Date, Volume, page and item numbers. Not all of these terms, of course, will always be appropriate. So, for example, to search for IG 2 squared 43, it would be necessary to enter the following information: Title: IG ; Number: 43; Volume: 2(2) IG 1 numeration is that of IG 1(2); it should be updated to IG 'Province' refers to the ancient region; follows the forms found in The Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World (e.g. Athenae)

Ranging from the Garden of the Gods in Colorado to Baja's Santa Catalina Island to the Tallgrass Prairie in Kansas to the Florida Everglades, he sees through and beyond the familiar to illuminate previously unrevealed landscapes. "Terra incognita was the term used by ancient cartographers to describe those areas of the world still unexplored, landscapes of great mystery and allure, replete with the promise of discovery. This term has always charmed me for it seems to allude to the possibilities inherent in any exploration, whether an arduous physical voyage or an intuitive mental search. I have become convinced that everything in natureincluding the most familiar and mundane of subjectsis imbued with a certain degree of mystery. By searching out these skewed and esoteric visual enigmas, by skating the fine line between vision and abstraction, I have journeyed into my own terra incognita ."Steve Mulligan

49. Searching For Causes Of Breast Cancer most of us are familiar with the list of risk factors related to lifetimeexposure to estrogen, such as early menstruation and late menopause. http://www.mnn.net/cancer.htm

Home Up From our October 2002 issue Chemicals And Breast Cancer. The Connection? Mary Ellen Edwards-McTamaney Breast cancer is the leading cause of death in women 34 to 54 years of age. The breast cancer tide keeps rising in the US and other developed countries—but more than 50% of the cases are unexplainable by known risk factors. Why is this happening? A large body of evidence suggests that synthetic chemicals in the environment are related to possible causes of breast cancer. There are many environmental exposures that individuals cannot control, such as pesticides, dioxin, secondhand tobacco smoke and other chemicals. Dioxin is present in the body fat of every human being, including newborns. It enters the food chain when diesel exhaust or soot from incineration falls on the grass. There are about 85,000 synthetic chemicals used in the US. Another 2,000 are added each year. Nearly 3,000 of these chemicals are produced in excess of one million pounds annually. More than 90% have never been tested for their effects on human health. Over 43 chemicals are implicated in breast cancer formation and synergistically can produce combined effects of more toxicity. Doctors are now warning us against the use of hormone replacement therapy. Estrogens and their synthetic counterparts may cause breast cells to proliferate, increasing the risk of cancer. Women are vulnerable to harm from estrogens or synthetic substances (xenoestrogens) that behave like estrogens. These are contained in many pesticides, fuels, plastics, solvents, detergents and prescription drugs. The exposure to these substances can set the stage for breast cancer.

Tips for Searching for Alternatives to Animal Research and Testing Provided by the Animal Welfare Information Center United States Department of Agriculture National Agricultural Library AWIC Tips for Searching for Alternatives to Animal Research and Testing (Edited version of this document published in March 1994 issue of Lab Animal Cynthia P. Smith, M.S. Technical Information Specialist Animal Welfare Information Center The following guidelines were developed to assist researchers, information specialists, and Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) members, when conducting literature searches to determine if alternatives to the use of animals exist and whether a protocol unnecessary duplicates previous research. When searching for alternatives, the staff at the Animal Welfare Information Center (AWIC) refer to the tenets of the 3 R's introduced by W.M.S. Russell and R.L Burch(1959) in their book The Principles of Humane Experimental Technique 1. The 3 R's represent reduction in the number of animals used, refinement of techniques and procedures that reduce pain and distress, and replacement of animal with non-animal techniques. The first step in conducting a search for alternatives, involves communication between the investigator and the information specialist. The specialist cannot effectively search for alternatives without a basic understanding of the type of research the investigator is proposing. The most efficient means of communicating is a direct dialogue between the investigator and the information specialist. A third party should not be used to convey information.

The deep Web is the hidden part of the Web, containing a huge volume of content that is inaccessible to conventional search engine s, and consequently, to most users. According to a recent study by BrightPlanet, a search technology company, the deep web may contain 550 billion documents, perhaps 500 times the content of the surface Web that most of us are familiar with. In comparison, Google - which claims to index the most comprehensive collection of documents on the Internet - has identified 1.2 billion documents and is actually capable of searching a mere 600 million of those. An article in Nature reported that even a large search engine such as Northern Light only indexes 16% of even the surface Web's content. These figures indicate that an Internet search typically searches .03% (1/3000) of available content. In addition to the surprising quantity of deep Web content in existence, BrightPlanet found that the deep Web was growing much more quickly than the surface Web, and that the quality of the content within it - 95% of which is publicly accessible - was significantly higher than the vast majority of surface Web content.

User Expectations Survey We were unable to obtain access to a coherent, identifiable group of users via email, for two reasons. First, there did not appear to be an email list readily available where the members could be characterized as being from a particular audience; we would likely be "comparing apples and oranges." Second, the response rate for email surveys is typically extremely low, making this a less-than-desirable mechanism for obtaining input. Therefore, we prepared a hardcopy questionnaire for distribution at the UCGIS Summer Assembly, where attendees were guaranteed to have at least a certain level of commonality. This report summarizes the results. Three types of analysis were performed: simple analysis, which records the number and type of all responses; sub-population analysis, which identifies sub-populations of respondents and seeks trends in those results; and cross-tabulation analysis, which identifies interrelationships among responses.

Home Drills Chat Clubs ... Search Fencing.Net: Zone Theory - Physical Zones on the Fencing Piste Zone Theory - Physical Zones on the Fencing Piste The fencing strip is divided into several physical zones. Much like "red zone" offense and defense in football, the fencer's location on the strip often influences the tactics most likely to be employed. What are the common mistakes made by fencers (both offensive and defensive) in the different zones? How can you capitalize on these common mistakes? Each zone has its own physical and psychological comfort level. Mistakes tend to get larger as a fencer becomes less comfortable. In general, this means that mistakes get larger as the fencer goes from Zone 1 to Zone 3. Zone 1: (Enguard line to enguard line) - Generally the most comfortable zone. Most of the fencing is done here. This is the most familiar area of the strip. Therefore, fewer mistakes are made and the mistakes are small. Because fencers are most comfortable here, it is the hardest zone in which to score touches. Zone 2: (Enguard line to 2 meter warning line) - This seems to be a good defensive zone. It is easy to pull an attacker into here, and a defender can make the attacker commit before reaching Zone 3. Here the attacker wants to accelerate and hit. (They will chase to score the touch.) On defense, this is where a point-in-line or counter-riposte will be initiated. Defenders want to make a stand here so as to not get into Zone 3.

Pretty impressive - if you're into data nightmares. If you like flea markets, garage sales, and dusty old bookstores, then you probably don't mind searching the Web for info. The good news is, by taking advantage of some of the largest and most advanced search engines available on the Web, you can alleviate the data overload. Search Engine Basics There are essentially three types of search vehicles on the Web. The first, and most familiar "search engine" is the Web index or directory, like Yahoo! and Magellan. A directory lists your search results in categories, and the information within these categories is sorted and reviewed by humans. The result is user-friendly with at least a semblance of order and organization. What's sacrificed is quantity: Directories are, by their handcrafted nature, limited in scope. Once a directory's index is depleted, it may ask if you want to go to our second example, an all-out engine, for more choices (for example, Yahoo refers its users to
