Global Ocean Sampling Expedition
The Global Ocean Sampling Expedition (GOS) is an ocean exploration genome project whose goal is to assess genetic diversity in marine microbial communities and to understand their role in nature's fundamental processes. The two-year journey, which used Craig Venter's personal yacht, originated in Halifax, Canada, circumnavigated the globe and terminated in the U.S. in January 2006. The expedition sampled water from Halifax, Nova Scotia to the Eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean. During 2007, sampling continued along the west coast of North America. Data analysis The GOS datasets were submitted to both NCBIGlobal Ocean Sampling Expedition project at the J. Craig Venter Institute, Project ID 13694 |

Gronings Dialect
Gronings (; or Grönnegs), is a collective name for some Low Saxon, Low Saxon dialects spoken in the province of Groningen (province), Groningen and around the Groningen border in Drenthe and Friesland. Gronings and the strongly related variety (linguistics), varieties in East Frisia have a strong Saterland Frisian language, East Frisian influence and take a remarkable position within West Low German. Its typical accent and vocabulary differ strongly from the other Low Saxon dialects. Area The name ''Gronings'' can almost be defined geographically, as can be seen on the map below. This is especially true for the northern part of Drenthe (number 8 on that map). ''Drents'', spoken in the north of the province of Drenthe (Noordenveld) is somewhat related with the Groninger language, but the core linguistics is ''Drents''. For the dialects in the southeast, called ''Veenkoloniaals'', it is a bit different on both sides of the Groningen-Drenthe border, as the dialect spoken ther ...

Government Offices For The English Regions
Government Offices for the English regions (GOs) were established in 1994 by the John Major government. Until 2011, they were the primary means by which a wide range of policies and programmes of the Government of the United Kingdom were delivered in the regions of England. There were Government Offices in the East Midlands, East of England, London, North East, North West (until 1998 there was a separate GO for Merseyside), South East, South West, West Midlands and Yorkshire and the Humber regions. Purpose The Offices represented thirteen Whitehall departments, and were involved in regenerating communities, fighting crime, tackling housing needs, improving public health, raising standards in education and skills, tackling countryside issues and reducing unemployment.

Gloucestershire Old Spots
The Gloucestershire Old Spots (also Gloucester, Gloucester Old Spot, Gloucestershire Old Spot or simply Old Spots) is an English breed of pig which is predominantly white with black spots. It is named after the county of Gloucestershire. The Gloucestershire Old Spots pig is known for its docility, intelligence, prolificity, and hardiness. Boars reach a mature weight of and sows . The pigs are white with clearly defined black (not blue) spots. There must be at least one spot on the body to be accepted in the registry. The breed's maternal skills enable it to raise large litters of piglets on pasture. Its disposition and self‑sufficiency should make it attractive for farmers raising pasture pigs and those who want to add pigs to diversified operations. History The Gloucestershire Old Spots (GOS) Breed Society was formed in 1913. The originators of that society called the breed 'Old' Spots because the pig had been known for as long as anyone could remember. The first pedigree r ...

Georgia Ornithological Society
The Georgia Ornithological Society is the principal birding and bird conservation organization in the American state of Georgia. History The Georgia Ornithological Society (GOS) was founded by a group of 22 people from the Atlanta Birding Club in December 1936. Unlike many ornithological societies, the GOS's main focus is researching birds in a more scientific manner. Over time, however, membership among non-professional scientists has increased. One of the prominent people in attendance of the Atlanta Birding Club's meeting the night before the GOS was established was Roger Tory Peterson, an important 20th century environmentalist. Herbert Stoddard was chosen as the first president of the Georgia Ornithological Society. Stoddard was an early proponent of the controlled burn, which was a very controversial practice at the time. Stoddard argued that these fires could be used for healthy ecological management. Specifically, these intentional fires acted as disturbances in longle ...

General Ophthalmic Services
Ophthalmology (, ) is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and surgery of eye diseases and disorders. An ophthalmologist is a physician who undergoes subspecialty training in medical and surgical eye care. Following a medical degree, a doctor specialising in ophthalmology must pursue additional postgraduate residency training specific to that field. In the United States, following graduation from medical school, one must complete a four-year residency in ophthalmology to become an ophthalmologist. Following residency, additional specialty training (or fellowship) may be sought in a particular aspect of eye pathology. Ophthalmologists prescribe medications to treat ailments, such as eye diseases, implement laser therapy, and perform surgery when needed. Ophthalmologists provide both primary and specialty eye care—medical and surgical. Most ophthalmologists participate in academic research on eye diseases at some point in their training and many inclu ...

GOS (operating System)
gOS or "good OS" was an Ubuntu-based Linux distribution created by Good OS LLC, a Los Angeles-based corporation. Its CIO David Liu described that after meeting Enlightenment and open source people, he realized that his dream to bring Web 2.0 applications into mainstream use could be achieved by creating a Linux distribution that made it easy for users to access Google and Web 2.0 applications. David Liu went on to create the Chinese Twitter clone called Wozai (), leaving gOS officially defunct. History The company initially advertised gOS 1.0 as "An alternative OS with Google Apps and other Web 2.0 apps for the modern user." This first version of gOS (1.0.1_386) was based on Ubuntu 7.10 and the Enlightenment window manager E17. On January 7, 2008, a test version (2.0.0-beta1) of gOS, intended to demonstrate the Everex CloudBook at the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show, and named gOS Rocket, was released. This version was also E17-based. The definitive second version of gOS d ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
