Vale can now use the simulation model to assess different mining operations scenarios and visualize and compare results. Using an external optimizer, they determined the best truck fleet size and maximized the amount of coal that could be transported, while also considering the transportation of waste and tailing constraints. Genoa built a simulation model of coal mining operations in Moatize, Mozambique. To simulate truck behavior in detail, they also used agent-based modeling and statecharts. The team used discrete-event modeling as the main approach for modeling equipment and machinery movements. Using the optimization results data, the engineers built a simulation of coal mining operations that showed how the mine’s processes could be improved. Thanks to AnyLogic’s capability to import external Java libraries, the team could import and use the data from their optimizer directly inside the simulation model.

Platform holders can be fined up to six percent of their annual global revenue. The penalties for failing to comply with the DSA's requirements are severe. Engadget has also asked XVideos and Stripchat for comment. When asked for comment, Pornhub directed Engadget to a statement claiming that "as of July 31, 2023, Pornhub has 33 million average monthly recipients of the service in the European Union, calculated as an average over the period of the past six months." As such, Pornhub disputes the EU's claim that it has more that 45 million monthly users in the bloc.

Hypothyroidism is another reason why O blood types gain weight. The regulation of the thyroid is another factor to consider for weight gain. The gluten lectins oppose the proper metabolism of insulin.Īnother factor to consider is that the muscle tissue in O blood types is more acidic, hence you might as well avoid legumes, pulses and beans that have lectins making your muscle tissues a bit unnaturally alkaline. This means that your calories are not utilized efficiently, stressing your digestive system out. Wheat – whole wheat and wheat germ – has gluten, which puts a stress on your metabolism, acting against ketosis. The main reason why you may be piling on the pounds is not the meat you eat, but due to the amount of grains, pulses and legumes you have in your diet. Their systems aren’t quite so entirely adapted to dairy and grains the way that other blood types are. So, O blood types won’t benefit much from drinking milk and eating bread. Think about the foods that require hunting! It would certainly not be a field of wheat or a glass of milk. But organic meats aren’t so bad for the O blood type and are actually the fuel that your body needs. Meats that are injected and pumped up with hormones and other dangerous antibiotics to plump up, are certainly best to avoid most entirely. So, you may be sitting back and blinking and thinking to the thought of saturated fats that are unhealthy and that eating too much meat is bad for you. Which means that instead of carbohydrates being broken down to glucose, the body metabolizes fats and proteins to ketones, which are used instead of sugars, to keep glucose levels steady. ![]() There were slight alterations in the hunter-gatherer’s physical demands, the general digestive activity and way of metabolism of the O blood type ancestors, due to a diet which was high in protein and fat, with a few carbohydrates. An efficient metabolism is essential to stay lean, healthy and energetic.Cannot adapt easily to drastic dietary and environmental changes.Best way to deal with stress is rigorous physical activity.Later, however the competition between them and the scarcity of meat on those hunting grounds made them disperse far and wide, out of Africa towards Europe and Asia, soon occupying all lands except Antarctica. Their population went up and their main source of nutrition (fuel) was protein that came from meat. D’Adamo came down to the conclusion that the kind of foods that were easily metabolized and were hence better for a person of a particular blood type weren’t necessarily so for another.Īnd, they became efficient hunters without many natural predators at all. To some, the connection between their blood type and the diet required according to the blood type, may sound a bit far-fetched whilst to others, it may be the most obvious link that they might or might not have thought of. It became clear to me that since each person was housed in a special body with different strengths, weaknesses and nutritional requirements, the only way to maintain health or cure illness was to accommodate to that particular patient’s specific needs.

"Wildfires can destroy nest trees and can suppress seed production of their key feed species." There's still a lot to learn Primary threats are likely to include the loss of habitat, including the loss of nesting hollows, the effects of climate change, including the impacts of heat stress on young birds, and severe fire events. "Due to the lack of dedicated research and monitoring, the reasons for these declines are not well understood," Taylor says. In 2021, the Threatened Species Scientific Committee recommended the gang-gang be listed as endangered because its population had declined by approximately 69 percent in the last three generations. "These declines are likely to have been exacerbated by the 2019-2020 bushfires, which burnt approximately 18 percent of their range." ![]() "They were listed as vulnerable in NSW in 2005 following dramatic population declines," Taylor says. Reporting rates of gang-gangs have been in decline across much of their range, but it's not entirely known why. While they regularly eat the seeds and fruits of eucalypts and acacias and many types of introduced garden species, they also enjoy sawfly larvae and will even eat cicadas and acacia galls." Gang-gangs are under threat ![]() "It may be a surprise to many that gang-gangs are not strict herbivores. "You can often hear the sound of falling debris where they are enthusiastically chewing fruits in the canopy," Taylor says. "Wood ducks are early season breeders and gang-gangs are known to use the same hollow in the same year, once wood ducks have fledged." Their hollow requirements are similar to other parrots and wood ducks. "Instead of leaves, feathers or other material, gang-gang's make a cozy bed of chewed bark for their eggs." "They use their beaks to strip bark off trees to line hollows in preparation for egg incubation," Taylor says. "Gang-gangs are a canopy specialist and occur primarily in forest and woodland habitats," Taylor says.ĭespite being Australia's smallest black cockatoo, gang-gangs have notoriously powerful beaks. They were one of several mainland birds introduced to Kangaroo Island in South Australia between 19 when part of Flinders Chase was identified as a sanctuary due to its lack of pests. Until the 1960s, their habitat even stretched as far south as King Island, off Tasmania's northwest coast. They occur along the Great Dividing Range from the central north coast of NSW, through the ACT and central and southwestern Victoria, to the South Australian border," Taylor says. "Gang-gangs are endemic to eastern Australia. While they hold a special spot in the heart of Canberrans, you'll also find gang-gangs well beyond the territory. "Some gang-gangs move to lower elevations in winter but some remain in areas with higher elevation," Taylor says. (The Southern brush-tailed rock-wallaby was chosen as the ACT's mammal emblem in 2018.) The gang-gang is also the insignia for the ACT Parks and Conservation Service and the Canberra Ornithologist Group-our local bird loving group. When the Australian Capital Territory adopted the gang-gang as its emblem in 1997 it was the only state or territory to feature a bird as its faunal emblem instead of a mammal. Many compare their call to the sound of a drawn-out creaky door." They are a Canberra icon "Their most distinctive trait is their call that is often heard while they are in flight. If you can't get close enough to identify it, try listening instead. "They are not as commonly spotted as other similar sized parrots and should certainly not be mistaken for the much more common, but also beautifully colored, galah." "The males boast a spectacular red head and both the males and females have a wispy crest." "Gang-gangs are an incredibly beautiful parrot," Taylor says. Gang-gangs, one of 14 cockatoo species in Australia, are crowd favorites for their slate-gray feathers with blushes of pink, the male's distinctive red crest, and their quirky call. We asked our gang-gang guru what we know about the birds, what we still need to find out, and what makes these charismatic cockies special. No formal research or monitoring has been conducted about the species, says Stacey Taylor, a Master's student at The Australian National University (ANU) who is studying the patterns of occupancy of the gang-gang across the ACT. That became clear in this year's Bird of the Year poll, where they finished third out of 50 Australian native birds.ĭespite their popularity, we don't know a lot about them. ![]() |
