We surveyed 451 people within a university community regarding knowledge about different energy sources with regard to renewability and spatial and carbon footprints and attitudes about which energy type(s) should be developed further. Findings were: 1) Gas, oil and coal were rated as the least renewable, and wind, solar and hydro as the most renewable;2) Oil and coal were rated as having the largest carbon footprint, while wind, solar and tidal were rated the lowest;3) There were smaller differences in ratings for spatial footprints, probably reflecting unfamiliarity with the concept, although oil and gas were rated the highest;4) Energy sources viewed as renewable were favored for future development compared with non-renewable energy sources, and coal and oil were rated the lowest;5) Worry-free sources such as solar were favored;and 6) There were some age-related differences, but they were small, and there were no gender-related differences. Overall, subjects knew more about carbon footprints than spatial footprints, generally correctly identified renewable and non-renewable sources, and wanted future energy development for energy sources which were less worried about (e.g. solar, wind). These perceptions require in-depth examination in a large sample from different areas of the country.展开更多

The purpose of this study was to collect information from Mid-American Conference softball players to determine their current knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to sport nutrition and to identify their preferred sources for obtaining sport nutrition information.展开更多

This tablet (Bo 70/10, KBo XXII 2) is the Old Hittite original, written in the old ductus, of KBo III 38 (=2 BoTU 13). The latter, known from the autograph of M.H. Figulla (1918), is a New Hittite copy with a very characteristic ductus and a preference for Akkadian forms where the Old Hittite version uses Hittite words or, more seldom, Sumerograms. The text, known as The Legend about the Queen of Kanis and the City of Zalpa, was published in transliteration and with a commentary by H. Otten (1973).展开更多
