Perera successfully revisits the symptomatic splitting of Bessie Head's apartheid-era novel, A Question of Power, to read its tropes of alienated belonging and its vision of connective and collective agrarian movements as mutually constitutive. The structuring of chapters is sometimes muddled, ...
Then, as loudly as if I’d been carrying a restless rooster in the lightweight pack on my back, the ear-splitting sound of Max Trumbull’s recorded cockerel crow pierced the morning quiet, signaling the start of the 93rd Comrades Marathon just as it has every Comrades Marathon for the pa...
At Driefontein, a Y-piece flow splitter was attached to the borehole splitting the fissure water flow over two identical trapping filters. Eight species were recovered from filter 1 and only six species from filter 2 (Table 1). Three species are identical between both filters. Although the ...
History states that early humans, or hominids, migrated out of Africa within the span of a hundred thousand years, but what if their journey was halted by a massive seismic event splitting a small portion of Africa apart from the continent. Or even an early ice age, one the spreads so ...
These findings suggested the presence of non-tree-like behavior, i.e., some ancestries may have formed due to a mixture process rather than a splitting process. Here, we investigate this possibility using three different approaches: analysis of the distance matrix using split decomposition ...
An interesting result emerged from the analysis of splitting the sample by income level (Fig.15). Farmers with higher disposable income have more definitions which include the word “comunidade” (community in English), whereas farmers with a relitively lower income have more definitions which inc...
I’m relying on images of a certain pitch or ledge or summit or camp or bear encounter or episode of gut splitting laughter and then try to tie it in with a given trip. I’m not sure I’ve gotten them all- or else I have too many. I climbed Gannett 6 times, once in the ...
Data splitting and model development The dataset was split up into two groups, training and test groups were created by randomly assigning the dataset to each group. 80% of the entire dataset was made up of the training group. The training group was used as a basis for developing the predic...
The purpose of splitting the variables using these two techniques was to transform the data into a common scale without distorting the differences between the value ranges. This was particularly important for our study of financial inclusion, where the variables can operate on very different scales ...
The East African Rift System (EARS) is one of the geologic wonders of the world, a place where the earth's tectonic forces are presently trying to create new plates by splitting apart old ones. In simple terms, a rift can be thought of as a fracture in the earth's surface that widens...
