![]() However, if the white coloring is as a result of Albinism, the Boxer will not have pigment on other parts of the body including the nose and eyes. The Leucistic variety usually have pigment on the nose, paw pads and eyes. ![]() White Boxer doggies are absolute angles both in their personality and their clean, white aesthetic. In fact, you may have to settle for mixed breed boxers as the black gene typically does not appear within the Boxer dog breed. Unfortunately, black and white Boxers are not very common. The combination of a predominantly white coat with white chest, limb, and belly markings makes these doggies look like they are wearing cute, little tuxedos. Black & White Image from PetHonestyīlack and white Boxers are elegant-looking dogs. The white markings, on the other hand, are present on the lower aspects of the body like the lower jaw, chest, belly, and paws. More often than not, the predominant, dark color will appear in a saddle pattern covering most of the back, sides, and top of the head. They appear in combination with solid colors like fawn or black. The white markings are the most commonly found pattern in the Boxer dog breed. Finally, you can expect to find the black face mask on most Boxers with brindle coats. The Brindle Boxer variety also may have white patches usually on the chest and paws. Some may have them as patchy dark markings on a lighter brown or fawn coat. The stripes are not always well-defined in all Brindle Boxer dogs. This gives the cute and gentle-natured dogs an ironic fierce and intimidating tiger-like appearance. Brindle Image from Majestic Pet Productsīrindle Boxers have black stripes on a commonly fawn base coat. That way, you can better understand what to expect from this beautiful breed from the mystical White Boxer to the feisty Brindle Boxer varieties. Boxers occur in different colors and patterns including 3 colors and 2 patterns that we shall look into shortly. We shall also take a closer look at their signature black mask marking. These are just a few of their awesome traits that make them perfect companions and family pets.Ī sweet personality is not all that Boxer dogs bring to the table. They are friendly, playful, protective, and super gentle. Boxers are easily some of the sweetest dogs. ![]() So, what kind of container should you use to grow plants in water? Any kind you like! The best containers for plants that grow in water It’ll develop a thriving root system before you know it. Just make sure the stem is submerged, but the leaves are not. You can take pretty much any of these (the vining ones are especially vigorous growers), snip off a piece and pop it in a pretty vase. ![]() We’ll discuss a bunch of different plants that grow in water in a bit. I’ve tried both methods and they’ve worked fine, although I personally prefer using cuttings: it saves me the time of having to clean all the dirt off the roots first, and also eliminate the small chance of a plant failing to adapt to life in water. If you’d like to grow a houseplant in water, you can start with a fully grown plant previously grown in soil or with a cutting. We won’t discuss it here, but it’s a good option to explore later if you’re enjoying growing your houseplants in water. I promise it’s easy!ĭid you know? There’s also a growing method called “semi-hydroponics,” which involves placing houseplants in a soil-less medium called LECA, plus water. If your interest has been piqued, let’s have a look at how to do it. In horticulture, growing plants in water is called hydroponics. Related: The Sneaky Way to Water Your Houseplants (and Why They Love the Shower) You get to see your plant’s roots grow, allowing you to keep an eye on root health as an added bonus.You get to be creative with beautiful displays in funky vases.Travel without worrying about your plants and without having to arrange a plant sitter.This eliminates the risk of overwatering or the leaves wilting from thirst. You almost never have to water your plant(s).Many of us long-time enthusiasts already root cuttings in water, but few realize you can also just grow plants this way indefinitely. It’s not something that works for every plant lover, nor for every plant, but it can be such a lifesaver that I sometimes wonder why more people don’t do it! One way to do this is to try growing your plants in water, with their roots submerged but their stems and foliage sticking out. Rather than just giving up and going for faux plants, it’s all about being creative in finding a way to keep houseplants alive and thriving, one that works for you and your schedule. It’s easy to think you’ve got a bad thumb if you’ve failed to keep a few houseplants alive, but I encourage aspiring houseplant growers to look at things differently. The same goes for fertilizer, and let’s not even talk about those species that seem to shrivel if you just look at them wrong! Too little water kills them, but so does too much water. We all love them and what they do for the look of our homes, but keeping them alive is often a different story. Sweet potato vine (Ipomoea batatas)Īh, houseplants.

It is evident that chimpanzee groups differ in mutual gaze – an index of engagement with caregivers ( Bard et al., 2005), differ in object manipulation – an index of engagement with objects ( Bard & Gardner, 1996 Menzel, 1964a, b), and differ in the quality of attachment bonds ( van IZjendoorn et al., 2009), the building blocks of complex social cognition. A Behavioral Intervention project, conducted from 1987-1995 at the Yerkes Research Center ( Bard, 1996: Bard & Gardner, 1996), studied chimpanzees from birth through the first year of life to document how differential experiences impacted social, emotional, and cognitive outcomes. Unfortunately, most of the studies of comparative social cognition disregard the effects of both development and early experiences in apes while demonstrating that human joint attentional skills depend on early developmental experiences of emotional engagements with caregivers and objects, as well as cognitively-based triadic coordination ( Bard & Leavens, 2009 Leavens, Hopkins & Bard, 2005 Tomasello & Carpenter, 2005). These motivations to share emotions and social experiences, it is argued, begin with the joint attentional skills of 9-12 month-old human infants. The currently most popular theory in comparative psychology suggests that humans have unique motivations for cooperation, which is the foundation for complex species-unique cultural learning (e.g., the cultural intelligence hypothesis: Herrmann, Hernandez-Lloreda, Call, Hare, & Tomasello, 2009). Comparative developmental studies are valuable for understanding hominid evolution (e.g., Boesch, 2007 Johnson-Pynn, Fragaszy, & Cummins-Sebree, 2003), and essential for delineating those characteristics that are uniquely human (e.g., Bjorklund, 2006 Leavens, Bard, & Hopkins, in press). The current article presents a detailed study of the neurobehavioural integrity of newborn chimpanzees, which was part of a larger project that documented imitative (e.g., Bard, 2007 Custance, Whiten, & Bard, 1995), cognitive (e.g., Bard & Gardner, 1996 Bard, Fragazsy, & Visalberghi, 1995 Bard, Todd, Bernier, Love & Leavens, 2006), and socio-emotional development (e.g., Bard, 2009, 2005, 2003, 1998a, b Russell, Bard, & Adamson, 1996 van IJzendoorn, Bard, Bakermans-Kranenberg, & Ivan, 2009) in a comparative perspective. What are the inborn capacities of chimpanzees? How do chimpanzees compare to humans? These questions typify the long-standing scientific interest in ‘what makes us human’ (e.g., Burghardt, 2009 de Waal, 1982 Fouts & Mills, 1997 Goodall, 1986 Hayes, 1951 Kellogg & Kellogg, 1933 Wrangham, 2009 Wrangham, McGrew, de Waal, & Heltne, 1994 Zlatev, Racine, Sinha, & Itkonen, 2008). The results of this study support the conclusion that the interplay between genes and environment, rather than genes alone or environment alone, accounts for phenotypic expressions of newborn neurobehavioral integrity in hominids. The human group was indistinguishable from at least one of the chimpanzee groups in the remaining 24 of 25 NBAS scores. Surprisingly, the cross-species comparisons revealed that the human group was distinct in only 1 of 25 NBAS scores (the human group had significantly less muscle tone than all the chimpanzee groups). Among the 4 chimpanzee groups, significant differences were found in 23 of 24 NBAS scores. The cross-group and cross-species comparisons were conducted at 2 and 30 days of age. Thirty-eight chimpanzees were tested every other day from birth, and analyses revealed significant developmental changes in 19 of 27 NBAS scores. Neurobehavioral integrity related to orientation, motor performance, arousal, and state regulation of 55 chimpanzee (raised in four different settings) and 42 human newborns was measured with the Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale (NBAS) a semi-structured 25-minute interactive assessment. ![]() The aims of this article are to describe the neurobehavioral integrity of chimpanzee newborns, to investigate how early experiences affect the neurobehavioral organization of chimpanzees, and to explore species differences by comparing chimpanzee newborns to a group of typically developing human newborns. ![]() Connect with our team to explore our selection, deals, and more.

Usually the King would like to stay away from open files, ranks and diagonals or where there is an absence of his pawns. The Pawns are the bodyguards for the King and shelter it from attack of the other pieces. The best position for the King primarily depends on the positioning of the Pawns. Capturing any of these pieces is illegal. However, the King cannot capture the Pawn on e6 (protected by the Rook Bishop, and both Knights ), the Bishop on d5 protected by the pawn and the Knight on f4), nor the Knight on f4 (protected by the Rook). Why? Because these pieces are not protected and capturing them would not put the King into danger or check. Which of the black pieces can the white King capture?Īnswer: It is possible for the King to only capture the Rook on the f6-square and the Knight on the d4-square. For example, the position in Diagram #2 shows the white King with many enemy pieces surrounding it. The King cannot be captured and is only able to capture a piece that is not "protected" by another. However the King can safely move to the d6-square.įirst rule… both Kings must remain on the board the entire game. Moving to a square attacked by an enemy piece is putting a King into danger, or "check." In Diagram #2, the white King cannot move to the f5-square or d4-square because it would be putting itself into danger. The King can move to any open adjacent square not under attack by an enemy piece (Diagram #1). Then in the "endgame," it marches to the center of the board to become a powerful fighting piece. It is a piece that is to be guarded by all other pieces or else the game will end in "Checkmate" which means "The King is dead!" The King spends most of the game hiding until few enemy pieces are left to attack it. The King is a special piece on the board in that it has no assigned value. They even made a little compilation of some other moments this season where Brady was the butt-end of a brushed-off high-five. ![]() To add dirt to the defeat, the NFL Tweeted out a short video of his failed high-five attempt, calling it a “must see.” Then, when Brady went to celebrate with everyone else later on, he was left pacing back and forth along the sidelines, hand in plain view of the dozens of people shuffling around him, completely ignored. The first instance of awkwardness happened after running back LeGarrette Blount made a touchdown Sunday, and started celebrating in the end zone. But on the field, during the matchup with the Ravens, Brady helped bring the team a win over their sport rivals. Once you develop a culture of appreciation that makes recognition fun and meaningful, you’ll quickly notice the ways it increases both morale and profit.Sure, Brady didn’t have the best day in terms of his career, after the Broncos’ Peyton Manning overstepped Brady’s 2007 record for most touchdown passes in a single season. Create a workplace that embraces high fives, whether they’re given physically or virtually. If you’re part of a remote workforce, messaging your coworkers with comments like, “Fantastic job closing that sale!” can have the same effect.Įncouragement between colleagues is absolutely key to a business’ success. Of course, the main idea is promoting recognition and encouragement. They might find it funny at first, but trust the data and you’ll get results. If you’re a member of the team, be sure to acknowledge (or even try high fiving) your colleagues when they go above and beyond or come up with a great idea. So, if you’re a manager or HR officer, try promoting a culture that embraces congratulatory gestures and peer recognition your team will become more engaged and success will soon follow. It sounds a little crazy, but hey, we’re not going to question science. Just as basketball teams that high five and fist bump found more success, so will a company that does the same. We can look at UC Berkeley’s study and apply it directly to our work environments. Whether collaborating on a group project or focusing on your own tasks, you’re part of the team. No one can do the job of their workplace by themselves, which is why teamwork is crucial no matter what industry you’re in or what responsibilities you have. (Though, OKRs are our favorite way to keep score!) Each season brings “wins” and “losses”, even if they’re not marked down by record keepers. Your company is a group of hard-working people united to achieve a common goal - a goal that often includes beating out some competition. Now, while it’s true that your workplace is rather different from a basketball court, you and your coworkers are a lot like a real team. It appears that the high five is truly a motivator that can bring about positive outcomes. It would be no surprise if a championship-bound team high fived more - but the trends had been apparent since the first game of the season. On the other side of the aisle, the teams with the worst body language ended up losing the most games.Īnd before the more scientifically-minded cry out, “That’s correlation and not causation!”, I’ll mention that the study was heavily weighted to the beginning of the season so that discouraged teams wouldn’t drag down the results with melancholic behavior. The teams that consistently celebrated with high fives scored more efficiently and won more games than the average teams. ![]() We all accept the idea that congratulating teammates is an effectively motivational tactic, so shouldn’t that theory extend to high-fives? After an in-depth analysis of basketball players, UC Berkeley found that the answer was YES. ![]() ![]() The hypothesis they were testing was this: teams who high-five and fist bump more during games may be more successful. That’s why, in 2014, experts at the University of California-Berkeley decided to find quantitative evidence behind similar claims by studying a season of NBA basketball. Quotes like Mark Spitz’s, “If you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail,” are nice and all, but they can be too abstract to tie in to the work you’re doing. Some would say sports maxims are overused in the world of management, whether spoken in the real office or the fictional one. ![]() ![]() This athletic Tifa Lockhart gets to the point of sensual act contrary to a few monumental fellows.

Her first credited television role was a bit part in a 2009 episode of the British soap opera Doctors. She starred in two commercials for the charity Samaritans, portraying a domestic abuse victim. She worked at various non-acting jobs after graduating while auditioning for roles. One of her first film roles was in Drop the Dog, a University of London student short film. Clarke also appeared the 2009 production of Sense, co-produced by theatre company Company of Angels and Drama Centre London. After taking a sabbatical year, she was accepted into Drama Centre London.

After graduation, Clarke unsuccessfully applied to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, and the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. In a 2016 interview with Time Out, she stated "I went to posh boarding schools, but I wasn't the posh girl at the posh boarding schools." She also stated that most of the people at her boarding school in Oxford were from Conservative backgrounds, which meant she and some of her friends often felt like outsiders. Clarke was educated at Rye St Antony School in Headington and St Edward's School, Oxford, which she left in 2005. When she was ten, her father took her to a West End audition for The Goodbye Girl, a musical by Neil Simon. Ĭlarke became interested in acting at age three after seeing a production of the musical Show Boat. She has an older brother, Bennett, who works in the entertainment industry and was part of the camera department on Game of Thrones. She credits this background for her family's having a "history of fighters", stating, "The fact that had to hide her skin colour, essentially, and try desperately to fit in with everyone else must've been incredibly difficult." She stated that her grandmother "loved India more than she loved England" and as such, when she died, sixteen-year-old Clarke travelled to India to scatter her ashes. Clarke has Indian ancestry on her mother's side of the family her maternal grandmother was the child of a secret affair between Clarke's great-grandmother and a man from the Indian subcontinent, and wore light make-up to conceal the darker complexion she had inherited from her father.

Susanna’s parents managed to find a sponsor who donated the expensive drug, and Susanna’s 8-month lung infection resolved within days. The following year, however, brought news of a promising new treatment, interferon gamma-1b, which could strengthen the immune systems of people with CGD. Intravenous antibiotics had little effect, and antifungals resulted in side effects worse than the infections. Susanna spent most of 1993 in the hospital with double pneumonia and lung lesions. The infections were becoming heavily resistant to powerful antibiotics and were taking an enormous toll on my organs.” “I was admitted to the hospital for periods of up to five days to five months. I was homeschooled mostly, but as the infections increased, I was unable even to continue that,” said Susanna. I came down with many cases of bacterial pneumonia of the lungs and was in and out of hospitals. “Progressively, over the years, my health deteriorated. ![]() Though she lived indoors in isolation, Susanna still developed infections that doctors treated with heavy antibiotics. Susanna’s father worked, and her mother stayed home to care for her.
