For a geology novice like myself, conglomerates are among the most fascinating, but most confusing parts of geology. Thanks for this wonderful post! I understand a fair amount more now as a result . . .
Since This Is A Geology Blog, I Can’t Help But Comment
When my friend George read this, he tweeted, "Historian Mary Beard on the emotional power of Pompeii body castings... and how history is presented... But I can't help wondering if Beard is confusing lava and ash. Can @Dhunterauthor help?"
While we spent much of our time examining corals and swamps, studying sea level and storms, we became fascinated by a simple question: How did the hills of Exuma form? Storm deposits and sea-level shifts were massively important for forming the local geology, and we wanted to see if the island dunes might provide insight into both of them. Our conversations, whether during breakfast or 2 a.m. jam sessions, inevitably marched back to this single question.
Guide blogs enjoy the same features as the system blog, too, including social sharing and subscription options. But unlike the system blog, user permissions work differently. Since this is a page in a guide, the same users who have access to edit the guide will also be able to edit the blog's settings and posts. This includes Admins, the guide's owner, users assigned as editors to the guide, and Regular users with the Edit All Guides permission.
Under the assumption that the pandemic and required containment peaks in the second quarter for most countries in the world, and recedes in the second half of this year, in the April World Economic Outlook we project global growth in 2020 to fall to -3 percent. This is a downgrade of 6.3 percentage points from January 2020, a major revision over a very short period. This makes the Great Lockdown the worst recession since the Great Depression, and far worse than the Global Financial Crisis.
For the first time since the Great Depression both advanced economies and emerging market and developing economies are in recession. For this year, growth in advanced economies is projected at -6.1 percent. Emerging market and developing economies with normal growth levels well above advanced economies are also projected to have negative growth rates of -1.0 percent in 2020, and -2.2 percent if you exclude China. Income per capita is projected to shrink for over 170 countries. Both advanced economies and emerging market and developing economies are expected to partially recover in 2021.
I wrote a post for this blog last year inviting PCC faculty to consider collaborating with us to create 360-degree-image projects for courses. In the time since that post, we have taken on a handful of 360 projects and I wanted to share one of them with you.
About 15 years ago I recall somebody giving me the terminology to describe this place. I also recall them saying there were only 2 or 3 sites like it in all of North America. I also recall researching those assumptions and blowing them apart. Essentially, I cannot recall and google is not helping ?
Indexing services such as Google Scholar have become significantly more powerful since these articles were written at the turn of the last decade. While I was unable to find Google Scholar policies explaining linking articles for authors with multiple names, I did find that it is extremely easy to change your profile name without your previous work being lost. Many women have taken to listing their profile names as First-name Married-name (maiden name: xxx) with publications from both names linked to their profile. Further, a Google Scholar search of an author with such a profile by either their married name or maiden name yields the same results. Another perk of having a Google Scholar account is that your h-index is automatically calculated based on the work linked to your profile. It should be noted, this is only the case if you have set up a Google Scholar profile.
As Sommers noted in a recent blog, the administration should provide clarity on federal leasing and permit energy infrastructure. Most importantly, it should complete work on a long-term plan for offshore oil and gas development, to replace the one that expires this summer. More from the Sommers piece in Fortune:
as an INFP, I am able to deal with repetition in my work, by using my creativity to tweak and improve my script as a tour guide. I also enjoy meeting new people and ensuring they have a great experience on my tour. On the downside, I care more about the people than rules and have broken rules at time to accommodate people if the rules are silly.The repetition is wearing me down however, so I plan to leave this job and am starting my own business as a professional organizer for businesses and homes. I enjoy taking on projects and seeing a final sparkling result. I have worked in the past as an Admin Projects Coordinator and loved the role. It was for a nonprofit and helped improve the experience of staff and many volunteers, and it was a contract role, so had an end in sight. My full resume is terrible with all the jobs over the years, but learning to embrace my personality and capitalize on it has been the key to happiness while earning income. I also write quite a lot and have a regular published column but it pays poorly.
Testing embraces technical creativity with open arms at my company, and I think that's rare to find in the area of large enterprise software development. The 'N' side of my personality is satisfied through the creativity it gets to exercise. I'm fully entrusted to write the test plan and brainstorm all the ways to test a product. I get to think about the usability experience and how a user would feel throughout navigating an interface (would a user get frustrated if they experienced XYZ? Why does this window pop up? It makes me want to microwave a bag of nails and gasoline! ...or hug a fluffy bunny.). The 'P' side gets placed on cruise control because testing determines the deadlines and not the other way around--longevity testing simply cannot be rushed, and I rarely feel pressure to bring full closure to anything since testing is an ongoing process that rarely is repetitive (always dynamic and changing). The 'F' does get a little deprived since half of the day I need to be pragmatic and logical in the gathering of my results... so I am usually exercising the introverted thinking cognitive function during a work day--so some days I do get drained more than others, but it doesn't take away from my job satisfaction. I work with a ton of STJs, which also means I experience a lot of strong objective criticism that sound like attacks. This job has truly helped me relate with my arch-nemeses of personality types. On the contrary, it's easy for me to empathize with their undisclosed feelings of high stress because I can observe their heavy workload and extremely tight deadlines. I can gauge accurately when to give somebody space and when I can dump my exhaustive details and findings of my work. My actual work is not group-based, so my 'I' trait really loves that I am gauged on individual performance. I also have my own office with a door, so I'm not in a cube farm like many other software development places too. I'm also never put on the spot for impromptu results. If somebody needs my results, it's just, "Hey John, whenever you get time can you post your results from last week?" I still treat that question as high priority, but the fact they respect my time goes a LONG way with me.
I studied geology in school but most of my classes were with engineers. Geology is a fantastic field! But when I graduated most of the jobs were in oil and gas or mining. I needed to feel that my career was contributing to society in a positive way - I just couldnt bear to work just to get rich off oil. Now I work as a data coordinator for much less than I'd make as geologist but my company helps prevent groundwater contamination, sinkholes and deaths from gas explosions. It's extremely satisfying to know that my work helps people and saves lives.I too run on auxilary functions all day. My favourite part of the day is when I get to create maps - design things my way. Fortunately tech is booming and they were willing to pay me more once they found out that my maps are fabulous and people with computer programming and GIS skills are hard to come by.As someone educated in science I value good quality data and I am super please to have found something I can stand (data quality and assurance) and the repetition doesn't matter because checking boxes lets me feel good about my work knowing the data is high quality. Our engineering clients will be happy with our product (databases) and their computer doesnt crash when they try and run a corrupted file (mine crashes instead!!!). I have the freedom to be creative at work - problem solving requires out of the box thinking and I enjoy finding new better ways to do things - tweaking processes and thinking up new solutions.They other day I drove one of the field crew vans to go grab everyone coffees so no two days are exactly the same.I started painting on the side and designing aquascapes to let some of my feelings out after work but I couldn't ever imagine a full time career as a painter or writer - I'm willing to take risks but I could not abandon a steady M-F office job for something like that.However a lot of jobs in engineer seemed really appealing - I'm glad now I didn't take that path. At work I see what engineers do. They rely so heavily on T and J that I would never enjoy the work - although I find working closely with strong T and J types actually keeps me on track.I think each personality is highly valuable at a company - but I could never go into management business or marketing. Project management irks me in a way I can't explain...Lately I've been wanting to jump ship and do another degree...find something that makes a bit more money like becoming a psychologist - I fear that my only path to a higher salary at my current company is through management. But on the other hand I recognize that as a character defect and I know there's a lot of value in sticking around and becoming highly talented in one field.Any thoughts? 2ff7e9595c
