It has been used as a bird repellant and is the parent compound of the anthraquinone vat dyes in which the dyeing is carried out by immersion in the reduced vat solution followed by air oxidation to the original insoluble compound. 

I undertook the present task to give a birds-eye view of the broad field of palladium in organic synthesis. 1 have tried to accomplish this ttisk by citing many references these were selected from a much larger number which I have collected over the years. I tried to be as comprehensive as possible by selecting those references which reported original ideas and new reactions, or evident synthetic utility. Synthetic utility is clearly biased towards catalytic rather than stoichiometric reactions and this emphasis is apparent in the selection of the...

Flues must be of the correct cross-sectional area in order to remove the products of combustion in a safe and efficient manner. The flue terminal should be fitted with a bird guard. 

Animal nutritionists have developed formulas to guide them in recommending the amount of food to feed animals in captive situations such as in zoos. First, the number of calorics needed to maintain the animal while at rest is determined—this is called the basal metabolic rate (BMR). In general, a reptile s BMR is only 15 percent that of a placental mammal, while a bird s is quite a bit higher than both a reptile s and a mammal s. For all animals, the number of calories they should receive on a maintenance diet is twice that used at the basal metabolic rate. A growing animal should receive three times the number of calories at the BMR, while an animal in the reproductive phase should receive four to six times the BMR. 

Birds and mammals are endothermic vertebrates. Not coincidentally, they are the only vertebrates with unique external body coverings—feathers and hair, respectively. For both groups, these body coverings evolved as an adaptation to reduce heat loss. A bird s feathers were originally adaptive because they helped keep the animal warm, not because they helped it to fly. 

Nonetheless, birds have higher metabolic rates than mammals of similar size. Most small mammals reduce energy costs by seeking protected environments birds spend much of their time exposed. Also, because fat is heavy, the need to fly restricts a bird s ability to store energy. Even with a high-protein diet, a bird must eat as much as 3(1 percent of its body... 

Most louver systems have a pitch between 30 mm and 100 mm. Where noise control is required, louvers can be supplied either in the form of acoustic louver with a pitch of 300 mm and acoustic material in the louver blade or as standard louver with an attenuator section behind it. A bird or insect guard (as applicable) is normally mounted behind the louver.

Later evidence suggested that merlins (Falco columbarius) also declined in parts of Britain during the late 1950s or early 1960s as the result of exposure to cyclodienes (Newton, Meek, and Little 1978). The merlin, like the peregrine and sparrow hawk, is a bird-eating predator. 

Health, he pronounces in flawless Lutheran tones, is the result of faith, which arises from hearing the Word, but by this statement he does not, in fact, refer to the Scriptures. The Word he interprets in an idiosyncratic sense as being the mind, heart and spirit of God, the Ruach Elohim who was pictured as a bird by the Chaldeans. 

In 1952 a table bird of 2.0 kg consumed 6.0 kg of food in 13 weeks in 1992 a bird reached the same weight in only six weeks and ate a mere 3.8 kg of food. Organic poultry producers cannot hope to match these figures. In order to observe the much stricter welfare code promulgated by the Soil Association, they have to concentrate on a quality market and abjure mass production.

His words recalled to my mind a small commission from Edward. Brother, is the country hereabouts open enough for falconry The King is minded to give Ned a gift of a bird, and would send his own man to the next fair at Valkenswaard to buy it. We were jogging over the bridge, and our path wound up the cliffs the tops were thickly wooded. I turned to Ned. Son, would it be happiness, or disappointment, to have a falcon that you might not fly within half a day s ride ...

Figure 12 Comparison of Vch artefacts intensity illustrated with ID rows taken from a BIRD-HMBC (A), (D) and (G) a G-BIRD-HMBC (B), (E) and (H) and a double tuned G-BIRD-HMBC (C), (F) and (I) experiments showing the Vch artefacts and nJCH responses of C-6 at 135.6 ppm (A), (B) and (C), C-l at 67.2 ppm (D), (E) and (F) and C-10 at 27 ppm (G), (H) and (I) of the 1,3-butadiynyl (tert-butyl) diphenylsilane molecule dissolved in CDCl3. For the BIRD-HMBC and G-BIRD-HMBC experiments, the delays S were adjusted to aV-value of 190 Hz, as an average value for the extreme range of coupling constants for this molecule (125-260 Hz). For the double tuned G-BIRD-HMBC, the /ch nnax and /ch nnin values were set to 240 and 145 Hz, respectively. The corresponding values for the S and S delays were 3.13 and 2.17 ms, adjusted toj values of 160 and 230 Hz, respectively. For both G-BIRD-HMBC experiments, 192 is BIP 720-100-10 pulses have been used for 13C inversion. The same vertical scale is used for all spectra. Residual /ch signals are denoted with arrows.

MRS. PETERS [glancing around] Seems funny to think of a bird here. But she must have had one, or why would she have a cage I wonder what happened to it.
