  Low Saxon-Low Franconian languages - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Low Saxon-Low Franconian languages (Nederduitse talen, Nedderdüütsche Spraken) are any of a variety of West Germanic languages spoken in northern Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and Surinam.
To this day no evidence is found on Low Saxon and Low Franconian ever having a common ancestor, and in linguistics the term Low German is mainly used to indentify West Germanic language who have not experienced the High German consonant shift, or the Ingvaeonic nasal spirant law.
The Low Saxon-Low Franconian languages are not characterized by a common linguistic innovation, but they are the West Germanic languages that have neither been affected by the High German consonant shift nor by the Anglo-Frisian palatalizations.

It shares in the general characteristics of the great north German plain, but, though low, its surface is by no means absolutely flat, as the southern half is traversed by a low ridge or plateau, which attains a height of 1025 ft. at a point near the western boundary of the province.
The coast is lined with low dunes or sandhills, in front of which lie the large littoral lakes or lagoons named the Frisches Haff and the Kurisches Haff.

The deniers further claim that the exterior staining on the delousing chambers proves that prussian blue does not "weather away" even when exposed to the elements, so that the lesser amounts of prussian blue found in the homicidal chambers cannot be explained by weathering.
Prussian blue is a sparingly soluble salt made of three molecules of iron (II) hexacyanate ion bound to four molecules of iron (III) {9}.
Given that prussian blue begins to dissolve at a pH of 4.0, and that any prussian blue on Krema II, III, IV, V has been exposed to this rain for almost fifty years, it is surprising that any such traces remain at all.

 Variation in grain iron between seed lots of some upland rice varieties
Perls’s Prussian blue technique is a simple staining procedure that may be used to quickly screen for high Fe content in large germplasm lots containing hundreds of rice entries, using reaction of genotypes with known grain contents as standards.
The Perls’ Prussian blue reaction was determined on individual grains of brown rice, after the husk was removed by hand, with 20 seeds for each accession.
Perls’ Prussian blue staining has been recommended as a method for locating Fe (III) in animal tissue because it is fast, reproducible and the reagent penetrates bulky tissue to give a distinctive blue reaction (Baker, 1958).

 <H2>Applications of molecule/polymer-based magnets   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
Molecule-based organic/polymeric magnetic materials are materials prepared through the established low-temperature synthetic procedure of organic, organometallic, and coordination metal synthetic chemistry, such that at least one type of spins site is based on s and/or p orbitals.
The inherent low densities and high molecular masses of molecule/polymer-based magnets mean that bulk applications relying on high magnetic moments either on a mass or volume basis are unlikely.
The high permeability to mass ratio make this class of soft (low coercive fields) magnetic materials potentially attractive for lightweight transformers, generators and/or motors as well as dc and low frequency shielding applications [1].

Prairie historians, on the other hand, have noted how the independent farm family “made good” in an environment characterized by an abundance of land, low population densities, the wheat frontier, upward mobility from rising land values, cultural homogeneity within specific settlements, and relative isolation from the metropolis.
So different were such settings as southern Ontario and the prairie west that historians have argued that regionalism constituted a fundamental variable in Canadian history, and immigration historians, in particular, have suggested that regionalism mitigated against the development of pan-North American identities for any given immigrant or ethnic group.
