The Edinburgh Association for the University Education of Women EAUEW , originally known as the Edinburgh Ladies Educational Association ELEA , campaigned for higher education for women from 1867 until 1892 when Scotland Scottish universities started to admit female students. For nearly a quarter of a century it arranged its own classes for women with lecturers from Edinburgh University , and it was connected with a wider campaign across the United Kingdom to open universities to women students. 1867 1892 The ELEA was founded by Mary Crudelius , with Sarah Mair and others, in 1867 just before Sophia Jex Blake started pressing Edinburgh University to admit medical students. Jex Blake s Edinburgh Seven campaign , covered by the press in both London and Scotland, made Edinburgh a visible part of a nationwide movement demanding higher education opportunities for women. Crudelius wished to keep the ELEA separate from the controversy raging over the women aspiring to become doctors, and she built up support amongst male academics, with strong encouragement from David Masson , Professor of Rhetoric and English Literature, who offered the first university level lectures to Edinburgh women in 1868. These were well attended and within the next five years the association had arranged for several more subjects to be offered, including science subjects. In August 1867 the University of London had been given powers to hold special examinations for women. In 1868 the university drew up plans to grant them certificates, although it would be another ten years before women could graduate with full degrees. One of David Masson s earliest ELEA lectures in 1868 responded to this news Is it to be borne that our Scottish Universities are to be Universities for only the men of the land, while other Universities are Universities for the men and women of the land? Is it to be borne that those of Scotland s daughters, be they few or be they many at present, who desire not to be behind any of ... more details
The avicularium pl. avicularia in Cheilostomata cheilostome bryozoa ns is a modified, non feeding zooid. The Operculum bryozoa operculum , which normally closes the orifice when the zooids tentacles are retracted, has been modified to become a mandible. Strong muscles operate it. The polypide is greatly reduced, and the indiviual receives nourishment from neighboring zooids. The shape of the avicularian zooid can be identical to the feeding autozooid , but is usually elongated in the direction of the mandible. Avicularia are categorised by their position relative to the autozooids. Vicarious avicularia effectively replace an autozooid in the colony structure and are usually a similar size and shape as the autozooids. Interzooidal avicularia are wedged between autozooids but do not replace an autozooid. Adventitious avicularia are placed somewhere on the external frontal wall of an autozooid and are usually much smaller. The birds head avicularium e.g. Bugula is elevated above the colony by a stalk peduncle . A zooid where the operculum is modified into a very long, hair like structure is called a vibraculum .

Zeno after pre Socratic Ancient Greece Greek philosopher Zeno of Elea is an imperative programming imperative procedural programming procedural programming language designed to be easy to learn and user friendly. Zeno is generic in the sense that it contains most of the essential elements used in other languages to develop real applications. The Zeno Interpreter was designed for use in Windows 95 and later Microsoft operating systems. The interpreter comes with built in debugging tools, a source code text editor, and an on line language reference. Zeno was created by Stephen R. Schmitt and is maintained by Abecedarical Systems.
