During pregnancy, the maternal body undergoes significant physiological changes. The present study assessed the changes on calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), magnesium (Mg), sodium (Na) and potassium (K) metabolism in singleton and twin-pregnant dairy goats. The 42 goats used ($49.5kg{\pm}7.6$ body weight [BW]) were assigned at random to treatments that were factorially arranged to account for 2 breeds (Oberhasli and Saanen), 2 pregnancy types (singleton and twin) and 3 gestation periods (80, 110, and 140 days). Digestibility trials were performed at 80, 110, and 140 days of gestation. Mineral retention during pregnancy was determined in the maternal body, femur, uterus, mammary gland, fetus and fetal fluid. Blood samples were taken during pregnancy before and after a meal, and Ca, P, Mg, Na, K ions and alkaline phosphatase activity determined in serum. Bone mineral density was determined in the right femur. Statistical analyses were performed using the SAS MIXED procedure. Dry matter intake decreased linearly up to 140 days of gestation. Maternal BW gain, and Ca, P, and Mg retention (g/kg) decreased linearly with the advance of gestation days. Macromineral retention in maternal body (g/kg) was greater in Oberhasli than Saanen goats, and their fetuses had higher Ca, P, and Mg deposition (mg/g). Mineral retention (mg/g) increased in fetuses according to pregnancy development, with no differences between singleton and twin pregnancy. In the mammary gland, the retention of all minerals (g) increased with the days of pregnancy. In conclusion, related to Ca, P, and Mg metabolism can be divided into two stages. Up to 80 days of gestation, was characterized by the preparation of the maternal body reserves for future mineral demands. From 80 days of gestation onward, was characterized by the transfer of maternal body reserves for fetal development and colostrum production. Na and K supply was provided by adjustments in endogenous excretion and an increase in intestinal absorption. Finally, mineral metabolism was specific to each genotype and, except for Na, was not affected by the number of fetuses.

High oil prices and high demand supporting IOC move to frontier and NOC evolution. Most frontier area reserves are in NOC territory. IOCs need to be able to manage relationships with NOCs in order to be successful. They need to tune into what NOC priorities are. NOCs have different priorities depending on whether they are resource rich or resource poor. IOCs need to recognize $NOCs^{\circ}{\emptyset}$ priorities and differentiate themselves by using them when talking to NOCs.

Due to depleting reserves and environmental pressures, the availability of "good" aggregates, , particularly in many urban areas, has decreased in recent years and from the viewpoint of energy and resources saving, it may be very advantageous to use waste concrete as construction materials. Therefore, this paper, an experimental study on the application in the construction of recycled aggregate concrete, is the experimental program and properties of fresh concrete to investigate general performance and workability of concretef concrete

With increasing content of granulated blase furnace slag in cement, the content of capillary pores in the mortar decreases and later age strength of the concrete. Therefore, this provides greater reserves study is carried out to estimate frost resistance of high-strength concrete specimens with water cement ratios using blast-furnace slag. 1. Blast furnace concrete is comparatively more good frost resistance than normal concrete. 2. As the blast furnace slag increases, the quantity of pores with a radius of more than 30nanometer decreses.

The availability of natural aggregates has decreased in recent years due to depleting reserves. From the viewpoint of energy and resources saving, it may be advantageous to use the waste concrete as construction aggregates. The purpose of this study is to analyze petrographic and chemical properties of recycled aggregate, and to investigate the resistance of concrete to rapid freezing and thawing by using replacement ratios (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 100% ) of recycled aggregate.

Shale gas is one of the resources which require lots of new technologies for commercial production and has the most reserves among unconventional gas resources for commercial production at present. Especially, the growth of shale gas industry means the significant changes of paradigm and the development of shale gas is very different from conventional gas development in terms of geology, rock mechanics, petroleum engineering, development and production engineering. In this manner, shale gas may hold the key to expanding the long-term role of gas in the global energy mix.

This paper is keeping with the general pattern of automatic acquisition and interpretation of geographical digital data. Maps of the Institut Geographique National of France are built up with four so-called "mother" maps represented by four colors. The green one deals with the vegetation. In a green layer, woods, bushes, vines. fields and boundaries of domanial forests or nature reserves are represented by different synthetic textures We present here an original method of texture analysis applied to the automatic interpretation of vegetation belts.

Since the 1960’s, the most attractive geological exploration for gold-silver deposits have been targeted on the sedimentary-host disseminated deposit, originating hydrothermal processes, low-grade (Au 2-8 g/t) but large reserves (5-20 M tons) and led to discovery of the Carlin deposit, following Battle Mountain, Round Mountain, Getchell and etc. in northeastern to central Nevada, USA.

Iowa is in a very interesting position for a climatologist with respect to soil moisture, It is located in a transition zone between humid climates to the east, and dry climates to the west, As a result of this, soil moisture reserves may vary widely from year to year, and even from place to place within a year. A wet situation may prevail where free water can be found in the 5-foot profile and the tile are running.(omitted)
