Agritourism is a business concept that merges two areas (e.g., agricultural and travel/tourism) to open up new profitable markets and provide travel experiences for the purpose of enjoyment, education, or active involvement in the activities of a farm or operation (e.g., Aronoff & Ward, 1995; Hegarty & Przezbórska, 2005). Bock (2004) stated that agritourism plays a significant support role for ...

proper representations. Inverting this procedure, Professor Bell, in his second paper, proves formulas of remarkable simplicity for the expression of the proper number in terms of the total, so that if the latter is within reach of analysis, so also now is the former. A few illustrations are given in the derivation of new results concerning 6, 8, 10 or 12 squares and other simple quadratic form...

According to the five commentaries (Kim, Eells & Stiles, Rosenbaum, Molina & del Rio, and Gratier), the author tries to clarify the main cultural concept of utushi and ma. The work of utushi is discussed in its four aspects-in terms of affect, mimesis, reflection and cognitive change. Ma activates a proto-conversation that involves the tonus—a subtle sense of change on body sensation-in the the...

In this paper we consider the population of eccentric binaries with a neutron star and a white dwarf that has been revealed in our galaxy in recent years through binary pulsar observations. We apply our statistical analysis method (Kim, Kalogera, & Lorimer 2003) and calculate the Galactic formation rate of these binaries empirically. We then compare our results with rate predictions based on bi...

Title of Document: TRACKING THE COST HEURISTIC: A RULE OF THUMB IN CHOICE OF COUNTERFINAL MEANS. Kristen Marie Klein, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Directed By: Professor Arie W. Kruglanski, Psychology Department Domain-specific empirical evidence shows that people sometimes infer a correlation between the cost of an item or behavior (e.g., price, effort) and its quality or efficacy (e.g., Labroo ...

While a precise forecast for the next decade is clearly impossible, some of the major challenges that need to be addressed in the next 10-20 years can be identified. These include problems of repositories, the changing scope of cultural heritage; new links between national, regional and local; between culture, knowledge and scholarship; European approaches to intellectual property and to models...

equating test scores is an important issue in large scale testing. almost all standardized tests have several forms which vary in difficulty. new forms are written and added every year. when the items in different forms of a test vary in difficulty, direct comparison of test-takers who have taken different forms and are at the same ability level is not possible; hence, the issue of test fairnes...

topological analysis has been performed on the total electron density of the two forms of ozonemolecule,c2v and d3h ,to investigate the nature of chemical bonds ,molecular structure , atomiccharges and electrical properties. while these concepts have been completely discussed usingclassical models the emphasize in this work is based on quantum theory of atoms in molecules(qtaim). because the d3...
