When it comes to Maslow’s main findings, the real challenge is to express them in a succinct and clearly-understandable form. \n\nI’d start by saying that Maslow was one of the pioneers of humanistic psychology, and he studied human motivation and self-actualization. He argued that we humans have innate tendencies to want self-development and to strive for what he called “self-actualization”. We want to be better people, to feel capable and confident in our abilities, to feel that we’re contributing to society and making a positive difference, to experience healthy and positive relationships with other people, and to feel motivated and happy about our lives in general. \n\nMaslow proposed that self-actualization is made up of a number of distinct levels. It starts with a desire for basic physiological needs to be met, and this includes things like food, shelter, and the ability to avoid danger and avoid pain. Once those are satisfied, people begin to develop in other ways, and have different levels of motivation. \n\nFor instance, on the first level, people may be motivated by the desire to satisfy basic biological needs, such as the need",

"content": "Can you put the important facts in this article into bullet points? The blood, bones, feathers and liver tissue of 1,210 eagles sampled from 2010 to 2018 were examined to assess chronic and acute lead exposure.\n\n“This is the first time for any wildlife species that we’ve been able to evaluate lead exposure and population level consequences at a continental scale,” said study co-author Todd Katzner, a wildlife biologist at U.S. Geological Survey in Boise, Idaho. “It’s sort of stunning that nearly 50% of them are getting repeatedly exposed to lead.”\n\nLead is a neurotoxin that even in low doses impairs an eagle’s balance and stamina, reducing its ability to fly, hunt and reproduce. In high doses, lead causes seizures, breathing difficulty and death.\n\nThe study estimated that lead exposure reduced the annual population growth of bald eagles by 4% and golden eagles by 1%.\n\nBald eagles are one of America’s most celebrated conservation success stories, and the birds were removed from the U.S. Endangered Species List in 2007.\n\nBut scientists say that high lead levels are still a concern. Besides suppressing eagle population growth, lead exposure reduces their resilience in facing future challenges, such as climate change or infectious diseases.\n\n“When we talk about recovery, it’s not really the end of the story — there are still threats to bald eagles,” said Krysten Schuler, a wildlife disease ecologist at Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, who was not involved in the study.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\n\nPrevious studies have shown high lead exposure in specific regions, but not across the country. The blood samples from live eagles in the new study were taken from birds trapped and studied for other reasons; the bone, feather and liver samples came from eagles killed by collisions with vehicles or powerlines, or other misfortunes.\n\n“Lead is present on the landscape and available to these birds more than we previously thought,” said co-author Vince Slabe, a research wildlife biologist at the nonprofit Conservation Science Global. “A lead fragment the size of the end of a pin is large enough to cause mortality in an eagle. ”\n\nThe researchers also found elevated levels of lead exposure in fall and winter, coinciding with hunting season in many states.\n\nDuring these months, eagles scavenge on carcasses and gut piles left by hunters, which are often riddled with shards of lead shot or bullet fragments.\n\nSlabe said the upshot of the research was not to disparage hunters. “Hunters are one of the best conservation groups in this country,” he said, noting that fees and taxes paid by hunters help fund state wildlife agencies, and that he also hunted deer and elk in Montana.\n\nHowever, Slabe said he hopes the findings provide an opportunity to “talk to hunters about this issue in a clear manner” and that more hunters will voluntarily switch to non-lead ammunition such as copper bullets.\n\nLead ammunition for waterfowl hunting was banned in 1991, due to concerns about contamination of waterways, and wildlife authorities encouraged the use of nontoxic steel shot. However, lead ammunition is still common for upland bird hunting and big game hunting.\n\nThe amount of lead exposure varies regionally, with highest levels found in the Central Flyway, the new study found.\n\nAt the University of Minnesota’s Raptor Center, veterinarian and executive director Victoria Hall said that “85 to 90% of the eagles that come into our hospital have some level of lead in their blood,” and X-rays often show fragments of lead bullets in their stomachs.\n\nEagles with relatively low levels can be treated, she said, but those with high exposure can’t be saved.\n\nLaura Hale, board president at nonprofit Badger Run Wildlife Rehab in Klamath County, Oregon, said she’ll never forget the first eagle she encountered with acute lead poisoning, in 2018.

Previous studies have shown high lead exposure in specific regions, but not across the country.

Have water, sports drinks, or any other non-alcoholic beverage you’d like. If you’re having difficulty drinking enough during a workout, consider carrying a water bottle with you and sipping throughout your workout.\n- Eat a nice big healthy snack after the workout, and drink some more water. It’s especially important to hydrate while you’re rehydrating your body after a workout. This is a good time to eat carbohydrates, like the “pasta for dudes” from college, or other “energy” foods. Make sure you have plenty of proteins (like eggs) and lots of vegetables (even salad) to go with your meal.

The highest risk period is during and immediately after a snow storm. Underlying snowpack, overloaded by a quick deluge of snow, can cause a weak layer beneath the slab to fracture naturally.\n\nHuman-triggered avalanches start when somebody walks or rides over a slab with an underlying weak layer.

Earthquakes can also trigger strong avalanches.\n\nBy digging a snow pit or profile, scientists can look at the composition of different snow layers that formed during a season, sort of like looking at the layers of a cake. The size and shape of the snowflakes in each layer provide clues about the weather events that occurred: big dumps of snow, drought, rain, a hard freeze, or loose, powdery snow. Larger, looser snow crystals are weaker, because there are fewer points they can touch to interact with the other snow layers. The interaction of the snow layers can help predict the chances of an avalanche.\n\n“Snow is an incredibly dynamic and complicated medium, which means avalanches are the same,” says Trautman.

And also the container needs to be secure to prevent them from escaping. \nThe main thing you’ll need to do is feed them periodically. They need a crickets food that you can buy at pet stores, and also you’ll want to give them some vegetables, maybe a few tomato or broccoli pieces, or some other vegetable they’ll like. And also you’ll want to make sure their water is fresh. So you’ll want to change the water at least once a day, make sure it’s fresh, and you’ll want to make sure their food is always available.",

"content": "Warm-blooded animals, such as mammals and birds, obtain and maintain their body temperature by metabolizing food, which generates heat. Because warm-blooded animals are endothermic, they rely on various physiological mechanisms to keep their bodies at a constant temperature. Cold-blooded animals, such as reptiles, obtain their body heat from their environment. Their bodies’ temperature is variable and changes with the temperature of their environment. Because cold-blooded animals are ectothermic, they do not rely on physiological mechanisms to control their temperature and must be exposed to environmental temperatures in order to regulate their body temperature.",
