Growing Squash And Pumpkins In The Home Garden, HYG-1620-93
Gives information on history and taxonomy, climate, harvesting, storage, and varieties.
http://www.ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/1000/1620.html

Extractions: Ted W. Gastier Squash and pumpkins will be discussed together because their cultural requirements are similar and because of the great confusion in differentiating between the two. There is also confusion about the origin of pumpkins and squash. T.W. Whitaker and G.W. Bohn presented evidence in 1950 that five species of Cucurbita, that are known as pumpkins and squash, originated in the Americas. Whitaker and Bohn also defined the terms pumpkin, summer squash, and winter squash as follows: Pumpkin -the edible fruit of any species of Cucurbita, used when ripe as a table vegetable or in pies; flesh is somewhat coarse and/or strongly flavored, hence is not generally served as a baked vegetable. Summer Squash -The edible fruit of any species of Cucurbita, commonly C. pepo , used when immature as a table vegetable. Winter Squash -The edible fruit of any species of Cucurbita used when ripe as a table vegetable or in pies; flesh is usually fine-grained and of mild flavor, hence is suitable for baking.

DLRN s Technology Resource Guide Chapter 4 Bloom s taxonomy In 1956, Benjamin Bloom headed a group of educational psychologists
http://www.dlrn.org/library/dl/guide4.html

Extractions: In 1956, Benjamin Bloom headed a group of educational psychologists who developed a classification of levels of intellectual behavior important in learning. This became a taxonomy including three overlapping domains; the cognitive, psychomotor, and affective. Each of the domains can be utilized through the interaction of media. Cognitive learning is demonstrated by knowledge recall and the intellectual skills: comprehending information, organizing ideas, analyzing and synthesizing data, applying knowledge, choosing among alternatives in problem-solving, and evaluating ideas or actions. This domain on the acquisition and use of knowledge is predominant in the majority of courses. Bloom identified six levels within the cognitive domain, from the simple recall or recognition of facts, as the lowest level, through increasingly more complex and abstract mental levels, to the highest order which is classified as evaluation. Verb examples that represent intellectual activity on each level are listed here. Knowledge : arrange, define, duplicate, label, list, memorize, name, order, recognize, relate, recall, repeat, reproduce state.
Feature-Practical Taxonomies
Examines the use and implementation of taxonomies to organize organizational knowledge and data.
http://www.phys.uni.torun.pl/~duch/ref/s-search/taxonomy/featureb1.htm

Extractions: January 1999 -By Sarah L. Roberts-Witt The only thing harder than finding any particular item of information may be finding it again. As organizations and individuals struggle over the intractable problem of data smog, the issue isn't so much acquiring the information in the first place, but remembering just where it was left. The solution is a knowledge classification system-including a taxonomy structure for navigating the system-that categorizes all the information the organization chooses to track in a logical manner so that it can be reliably accessed by anyone in the organization. Sounds easy, right? Just ask Yahoo! The opening page of Yahoo! provides an entre to one of the largest, most familiar and most frequently accessed knowledge classification systems in the world, fronted by a basic but highly usable taxonomy. "We continually revisit and re-evaluate the directory structure to make sure it still works for the people who use it," said Srinija Srinivasan, Yahoo!'s editor-in-chief. "We are all about determining which differences we can carve out, as well as defining which similarities are meaningful." When it comes to creating a knowledge-classification system, it is fair to say that the majority of organizations don't face the challenges Yahoo! does in terms of information volume. Conversely, most organizations don't have the luxury of attacking the problem with an army of human indexers and editors. But there is a common thread-the need to tame the seemingly endless influx of data in a way that is usable, effective and simple.

Extractions: rather complex. This became a taxonomy that included the three domains; cognitive, psychomotor, and affective. This article discusses the cognitive domain. The taxonomy also provides a useful structure in which to categorize test questions. Bloom found that over 95 % of the test questions students encounter require them to think only at the lowest possible level ... the recall of information.

Extractions: Have you seen the The Amazing World of Birds Yet Key to the Orders of Insects Welcome to the Wonders of Insect Taxonomy and Classification News Flash A New Insect Order Is Discovered There is much excitement in the entomological world at the momement as a new order of insects has just been discovered. To find out more visit the National Geographic news page. Firstly have you ever thought about why we name things at all? If you have you probably realised pretty quickly that names are very important for talking to, and communicating with other people. They allow you to give the other person quite allot of information about the animal or even plant that you are talking about. However not everybody uses the same name for the same animal. For instance slaters, cheesybugs and woodlice are all different names for the same animal in different parts of the world. Because common names can vary so much a scientist called Carl Linnaeus suggested in the 1750's that an international way of naming things be set up so that scientists all over the world could understand each other better. Read more about Carl Linnaeus Since then his original binomial (double name) system has been improved by a number of other scientists, and now you can use the proper scientific name for an animal anywhere in the world and other scientists will know what you are talking about.
Growing Muskmelons In The Home Garden, HYG-1615-93
Information on history and taxonomy, climate, fertilizers and lime, culture, varieties, insects and diseases, pollination, and harvest.
http://www.ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/1000/1615.html

Extractions: Ted W. Gastier Muskmelons originated in the hot valleys of southwest Asia. There are numerous botanical varieties of muskmelons including: netted melons, cantaloupe melons, winter (casaba) melons, snake or serpent melons, and mango or lemon melons. Technically, cantaloupes are only those muskmelons with a rough, warty surface and a hard rind; however, the name cantaloupe has been applied to the netted varieties of muskmelons. Whether you call them muskmelons or cantaloupes, we can agree that a vine-ripened melon from your garden adds high dessert quality and fine flavor to your family's diet. In addition, muskmelons are an excellent source of vitamins A and C. Muskmelons are a warm season crop, adapted to mean monthly temperatures of 65 to 75 degrees F, and needing ample soil moisture and plant nutrients for growth. During the ripening period the best quality melons are produced when hot, dry conditions prevail. Under Ohio's humid summer conditions, choosing a site with adequate soil drainage as well as good air drainage can help to ensure the desired quality. It is important to allow the leaf surfaces to dry to control foliar diseases. Fertilizer and lime applications are best based on soil test results. Soil sample bags, forms and instructions are available from your county Extension office. In general, when using black plastic mulch, the following amounts of fertilizer nutrients per 1,000 square feet of plot space would be adequate: 1 pound of actual nitrogen, 2 pounds of phosphorus (P

INTRODUCTION During the Mesozoic Era approximately 245 to 65 million years ago, while dinosaurs roamed the land and pterosaurs soared in the air, the waters were dominated by an equally spectacular variety of highly adapted reptiles. Amongst the first fossil vertebrates to be descovered and recognised, prehistoric swimming reptiles or 'sea-dragons' occur in numerous different forms and have been classified into many distinct groups. This Web Site brings information about one particular group of these fascinating prehistoric marine reptiles to the attention of a wider audience, whilst also being useful to anyone already interested in the Sauropterygia : plesiosaurs and their kin.

Extractions: Whales, dolphins and porpoises belong to the order Cetacea. The following taxonomy provides the most complete and up-to-date* reference in terms of current research in the field of cetacean taxonomy. The list provides common (vernacular) names, scientific names and the names for subspecies where these have been described. A number of the subspecies below have not yet been named, and in such cases these are simply referred to as subsp. in the list. The common names assigned for these animals are based upon their distribution. The links below provide a detailed fact file for those cetacean species most commonly found in the Moray Firth and North Sea. Order CETACEA (85 species) The baleen whales are filter feeders which sieve food from the seawater with baleen; hair-fringed plates made from keratin (the same material as fingernails are made from). The minke whale is the most common of the baleen whales in the Moray Firth, although other species have been recorded in these waters including the fin whale, Sei whale and, for the first time in 2001, the humpback whale.
