Who defines the landscapes around us? What practices are employed as contemporary landscapes are produced? This issue argues that landscapes are made and remade through interrelations between people and the worlds around them - from geographers investigating the lives of urban wastelands to landscape architects projecting future cities, and from migrants navigating border systems to artists working with local residents. In contrast to tendencies to emphasise the physical forms of landscapes, with their potential to be redesigned and represented in drawings, this issue brings to the forefront the social constructedness of landscapes by focusing on a range of critical practices and daily actions. As conventional frames of landscape are challenged, other ways of measuring, mapping, imagining, designing, building and occupying them are revealed. For centuries, artists and designers have represented landscapes of power in paintings and have transformed them through their design proposals. But in recent years a number of researchers, designers, artists and activists have explored an expanded field of landscape, investigating populations fleeing conflict zones, reimagining cities facing ecological challenges, questioning territorial claims, and critiquing processes of urbanisation. This issue focuses on some of these individuals whose work and lives encompass a diverse range of practices, brought together through their critical redefinition of landscape relations.

Quantitative methods are revolutionizing modern molecular and cellular biology. Groundbreaking technical advances are fueling the rapid expansion in our ability to observe, as seen in multidisciplinary studies that integrate theory, computation, experimental assays, and the control of microenvironments. Integrating new experimental and theoretical methods, Quantitative Biology: From Molecular to Cellular Systems gives both new and established researchers a solid foundation for starting work in this field. The book is organized into three sections: Fundamental Concepts covers bold ideas that inspire novel approaches in modern quantitative biology. It offers perspectives on evolutionary dynamics, system design principles, chance and memory, and information processing in biology. Methods describes recently developed or improved techniques that are transforming biological research. It covers experimental methods for studying single-molecule biochemistry, small-angle scattering from biomolecules, subcellular localization of proteins, and single-cell behavior. It also describes theoretical methods for synthetic biology and modeling random variations among cells. Molecular and Cellular Systems focuses on specific biological systems where modern quantitative biology methods are making an impact. It incorporates case studies of biological systems for which new concepts or methods are increasing our understanding. Examples include protein kinase at the molecular level, the genetic switch of phage lambda at the regulatory system level, and Escherichia coli chemotaxis at the cellular level. In short, Quantitative Biology presents practical tools for the observation, modeling, design, and manipulation of biological systems from the molecular to the cellular levels.

The result of two decades spent developing and refining the phase-integral method to a high level of precision, the authors have applied this method to problems in various fields of theoretical physics. The problems treated are of a mathematical nature, but have important physical applications. This book will thus be of great use to research workers in various branches of theoretical physics, where the problems can be reduced to one-dimensional second-order differential equations of the Schrodinger type for which phase-integral solutions are required. Includes contributions from notable scientists who have already made use of the authors'technique."

From Seed to Harvest and Harvest to Sale - Retailing Cannabis Instructional Guide and Software Applications, including over 500 reports and forms. ________ The State of Colorado is to be commended for a solid investment in procedures, inspectors and reports. Their involvement with respect for the properties of the drug and its patients, has put Colorado in the forefront and demonstrates that Marijuana use, (Cannabis) is about legalization of a natural flower and how Cannabis can be safe with regulation, just like alcohol. Thanks to the citizens of Colorado for passing Amendment 64, opening an emerging market that can bring a logical management program for legal cannabis dispensaries, collectives, retail outlets, specialty shops and cultivation facilities that will be studied by other States. This book is different, our focus is on the business of retail management; not the plants, strains, THC and other properties. We discuss and show in words, images, instruction, and state reporting with software guidelines, the "how to" for Retailing Cannabis. WAASoft.com provides another software solution for small businesses.

The business of Retailing Cannabis Procedural Guide includes 425 pages of State guidelines, instruction and software formats. We hope our book will be helpful in providing you with a knowledge base for your next investment. We focused on addressing some of your curiosity about the legal aspects of how dispensaries operate in the different states and how some of their business avenues came into play. It's been three years, first writing the software, then finding customers, and after many, many modifications finally writing this book. Thanks to our customers and my family. To folks who think I have created a document that is illegal? Well, no, I have not. In the states where Marijuana Use has been decriminalized, each state has laws voted into place by their citizens. Laws for Marijuana use have been approved and enforced. I believe the count is now nineteen, that's"19" states. I did not change the laws, our software keeps our customers in compliance with their State laws. Please review your State's Marijuana Use laws, as we refer to each state later in the book.

Skin, which is in continuous evolution throughout our lifetime, suffers changes with age and may develop malignancies. The part of the skin most involved in its bio-mechanical functions is the dermis. Topics discussed in this compilation include the cellular and histological changes in dermis aging; non-invasive methods in the study of the dermal structure and composition; and dermal and epidermal interaction.
