OpenCollab: A Blockchain Based Protocol to Incentivize Open Source Software Development
Open source software is one of the fundamental building blocks of today\u27s technology dependent society and is relied upon by parties ranging from large technology corporations to individual hobbyist developers. The open question left for technologists is how to make open source software projects more sustainable. The rise of decentralized networks of self-organizing, self-coordinating users incentivized by valuable cryptographic tokens enabled by Ethereum smart contracts creates the possibility of a system with embedded economics for open source software development that aligns the incentives of all parties. We present two contributions that can serve as building blocks for a potentially better solution to open source software sustainability: a command line tool that enables a decentralized Git workflow without the need for a centralized service like Github and a proof-of-concept blockchain based protocol for incentivizing open source software development using a cryptographic token. Both contributions are implemented using Ethereum smart contracts
Teaching the English Language through American Holidays: Halloween and Thanksgiving
ABSTRACT
Culture remains one of the crucial issues in foreign language education research worldwide, and theories related to linguistics suggest that culture must be emphasized as an important part of language classrooms. Learning any foreign language without learning the focal culture of it is less meaningful, so it is important to include cultural instruction in every language class. Compounding these already tenuous issues in Mongolia, students have little chance to be exposed to real-life situations where they can interact with native speakers from different cultural backgrounds, so the students face great challenges of not being able to become fluent speakers of English. To meet students’ needs, the lessons should include practical, productive, and authentic context, so that teachers can continue to use materials that will motivate students and make them feel like enthusiastic learners. In addition, teaching culture can engage students in the classroom actively because culture-based activities and tasks are appealing to students. Therefore, when the students are learning English, not only they need to know the culture and traditions of the language, but they should also know how to use their language skills on a daily basis or in their career.
The handbook created for this project demonstrates how culture can be integrated with English language teaching through American holidays such as Halloween and Thanksgiving. It serves as an example of teaching the English language in a way that integrates American culture, using the most relevant teaching model and a wide variety of exercises. It can be an additional text for English as a Second Language and English as a Foreign Language teachers. The handbook consists of an introduction, overview, and two units under the topics of Halloween and Thanksgiving. Each unit includes a teachers’ guide and a wide variety of activities integrated with vocabulary, reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills
Body composition and performance of high-ranking female athletes of Mongolia
The purpose of this study is to determine the level of morphological and functional indicators depending on sports specializations among distinguished Mongolian female athletes. Our study involved 123 athletes aged 18-34 in six sports disciplines and the body composition of the athletes were measured by anthropometry and bioelectrical impedance. Physical performance was assessed by Harvard Step Test, alongside spirometry and physical fitness tests. Sports specializations affect the indicators of physical development and body composition of athletes, which revealed significant differences between them. According to the Harvard Test, 85% (34) of team sports athletes, 53.4% (31) of martial arts athletes received good and excellent marks. High-ranking Mongolian male athletes have different body compositions according to various sports disciplines and one can create a profile of an athlete within specific sports. Many years of training can improve an athlete’s performance. The cardiovascular function of athletes involved in martial arts quickly returns to normal after training

Whole-genome analysis of introgressive hybridization and characterization of the bovine legacy of Mongolian yaks
The yak is remarkable for its adaptation to high altitude and occupies a central place in the economies of the mountainous regions of Asia. At lower elevations, it is common to hybridize yaks with cattle to combine the yak’s hardiness with the productivity of cattle. Hybrid males are sterile, however, preventing the establishment of stable hybrid populations, but not a limited introgression after backcrossing several generations of female hybrids to male yaks. Here we inferred bovine haplotypes in the genomes of 76 Mongolian yaks using
high-density SNP genotyping and whole-genome sequencing.
These yaks inherited ~1.3% of their genome from bovine
ancestors after nearly continuous admixture over at least the last 1,500 years. The introgressed regions are enriched in genes involved in nervous system development and function, and particularly in glutamate metabolism and neurotransmission. We also identified a novel mutation associated with a polled (hornless) phenotype originating from Mongolian Turano cattle. Our results suggest that introgressive hybridization contributed to the improvement of yak management and breeding

Tonnacypris glacialis Sars 1890
Tonnacypris glacialis (Sars, 1890) (Fig. 18, 21, 22 D–F) Herpetocypris glacialis Sars, 1890 (p. 61; fig. 1) Eucypris glacialis (Sars) Vávra, 1891 Prionocypris glacialis (Sars) Brady & Norman, 1896 (figs. 50–68) Eucypris glacialis (Sars) Bronshstein, 1947 (p. 126; figs. 53, 54) Tonnacypris glacialis (Sars) Griffiths, 1995 (p. 523) Material examined. Three dissected females from Svaldbard. Valves were completely decalcified and hence destroyed during dissection. Drawings of soft parts are included for OC.3027, 3028. Additional description of female. For description and illustrations of valves, we refer to Griffiths et al. (1998). The material presented here was too decalcified to be able to give additional valve characters. A 2 (Fig. 18 A) with reduced natatory setae, third seta the longest and reaching the basis of the terminal segment; z 1 a short setae, z 2 and z 3 long setae, G 1 and G 3 long claws, G 2 a short claw (about 1.6 times the length of the terminal segment); terminal segment with a long claw GM, shorter claw Gm, seta g, and aesthetasc y 3, with seta fused at the base with this aesthetasc. Md palp with slender α-seta on the first segment, a strongly developed and serrated β-seta flanked by a group of four smooth seta on the second segment, and a long, serrated γ-seta on the penultimate segment (Fig. 18 C). Mx 1 with seven (5 + 2) setae on the first segment of the palp, tooth bristles on the third endite serrated. T 2 (Fig. 18 B) with seta d 1 reduced and seta d 2 of normal length. CR (Fig. 18 D) with proximal seta slightly hirsute, proximally slightly enforced; distal half of the posterior side of the ramus set with about six setular fields, these fields slightly wider than in the other species of the genus (2 or 3 parallel rows of setulae instead of 1 or 2). Measurements. Female: length = 1.56–1.68 mm (n = 3) Remarks. Griffiths et al. (1998) gave a whole range of measurements for Recent and Pleistocene populations. Most of these measurements of adult (sub-) Recent specimens fall in the range of 1.40–1.75 mm for the length and 710–900 µm for the height. They also suggested that the presence of this species indicates mean summer (June–August) temperatures of about 6 ° C. Bronshtein (1947) reports carapace lengths of up to 1.6 mm.Published as part of Meeren, Thijs Van Der, Khand, Yondon & Martens, Koen, 2009, On Recent species of To n n a c y p r i s Diebel & Pietrzeniuk, 1975 (Crustacea, Ostracoda), with new species descriptions from Mongolia, pp. 1-41 in Zootaxa 2015 on pages 28-29, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18593

Genus Tonnacypris Diebel & Pietrzeniuk, 1975 Tonnacypris Diebel & Pietrzeniuk, 1975 (p. 87) Tonnacypris Diebel & Pietrzeniuk (Martens et al. 1992; p. 104) Tonnacypris Diebel & Pietrzeniuk (Griffiths et al. 1998; p. 516) Tonnacypris Diebel & Pietrzeniuk (Meish 2000; p. 301) Type species. Tonnacypris loessica Diebel & Pietrzeniuk, 1975 Diagnosis. Carapace 1.1–3.2 mm long; valves smooth, without denticles (porenwarzen); elliptical to subovate in dorsal view, LV overlapping RV; valves elongated in lateral view, about twice as long as high, calcified inner lamella narrow to broad, selvage (if present) marginal; LV with small peg on anteroventral side of calcified part of inner lamella, associated with reduced or completely absent inner list; inner list absent in RV; natatory setae on A 2 usually (except T. edlundi n. sp.) short; terminal segment of Mx palp trapezoical; seta d 1 on T 2 usually shorter than seta d 2, sometimes subequal. Species included. Recent: Tonnacypris lutaria Koch, 1838, T. glacialis Sars, 1890, T. estonica Järvekülg, 1960, T. tonnensis Diebel & Pietrzeniuk, 1975, T. convexa Diebel & Pietrzeniuk, 1975, T. edlundi n. sp., T. mazepovae n. sp. and T. sp. A–C (Schornikov 2007). Fossil: T. loessica Diebel & Pietrzeniuk, 1975 (Weichselian, Germany, opt.cit.), T. turcica Freels, 1980 (Upper Middle-Miocene to lower Upper-Miocene, Turkey, opt.cit.), T. angulata Yang, 1985 (Recent, Tibet, Huang et al. 1985) and T. (?) sp. (Sub-Recent, China, Mischke et al. 2003). Species excluded. T. sp. sensu Mazepova (2006) is here transferred to the genus Eucypris Vávra, 1891 (based on illustrated characters from both valves and hemipenis). Remarks. The original description of the fossil (Weichselian) type species did not contain information about soft parts. Martens (1992) and Griffiths et al. (1998) added some of these characters to the generic diagnosis (from Tonnacypris lutaria and T. glacialis respectively). Here, we give a complete description for all limbs of T. estonica (as no soft parts are available for the type species), and we describe differences of other species in comparison with this full description. A differencial diagnosis is provided for described species, this is not included for T. convexa and T. sp. A–C, as no information on the soft parts of these species is available. Tonnacypris angulata seems to have an aberrant valve shape. Type material from this fossil Chinese species should be re-examined to evaluate the generic assignment.

Measurements. Female: L = 1.05–1.33 mm (n = 15), H = 539–693 µm (n = 15), W = 438–499 µm (n = 2) Ecology. This is a crenophylic species, predominantly occurring in oligotrophic environments. Tonnacypris estonica seems to be indicative of good water quality in western Mongolian springs. High abundances have been recorded in shallow, slow-running spring water on silt or sandy substrate, with or without aquatic plants (Table 1). The species is also found in some streams and lakes, crawling on and in the sediment. Järvekülg (1960) reported adult females of this species all year round in coldwater springs (eurychronic). Temperature of the water in Mongolian localities: 3.5–16.8 °C, pH 6.9–9.1, conductivity 41–2670 µS/cm. Altitude: 905–2571 m in western Mongolia and around 80 m in northern Estonia. Males unknown. Distribution. Currently recorded only from Estonia and Mongolia, but is also mentioned in Polish (Sywula 1974) and Russian (Kurasov 1995) identification keys. The species is fairly common in springs along the Valley of the Great Lakes and in the northeastern part of the Mongolian Altai mountains (Table 1). Differential diagnosis. The species can be distinguished from: Tonnacypris tonnensis by its smaller size, inconspicuous posterodorsal angle, missing posterior peg on calcified lamella, longer G 2 claw on A 2, group of three setae next to β seta on Md palp, long γ seta on Md palp, eight setae on first segment of Mx palp and the claw-like proximal setae of CR. Tonnacypris edlundi n. sp. by its more elongated valves, single peg on the calcified inner lamella, short natatory setae, the claw-like proximal setae of CR. Tonnacypris mazepovae n. sp. by its smaller size, more elongated valves, broader anterior calcified inner lamella, missing posterior peg on calcified inner lamella, longer G 2 claw on A 2, group of three setae next to β seta on Md palp, eight setae on first segment of Mx palp, smooth tooth bristles on third endite Mx, and clawlike proximal setae of CR. Tonnacypris glacialis by its smaller size, longer G 2 claw on A 2, group of three setae next to β seta on Md palp, eight setae on first segment of Mx palp, smooth tooth bristles on third endite Mx and the claw-like proximal setae of CR. Tonnacypris lutaria by its smaller size, longer G 2 claw on A 2, group of three setae next to β seta on Md palp, eight setae on first segment of Mx palp, smooth tooth bristles on third endite Mx and the claw-like proximal setae of CR. Remarks. Järvekülg (1960) reported on the discovery of this species from northern Estonia. The similarity between the claw-like proximal setae of this species with the spinous proximal setae typical of Ilyodromus Sars, 1894 (now transfered to Psychrodromus, Danielopol & McKenzie 1977) made him classify the new species as such. Danielopol & McKenzie (1977), who took into account more characters of soft parts, suggested that this species could represent a new genus close to Eucypris, but it was later (Griffiths et al. 1998) transferred to the genus Tonnacypris. The absence of fossil material and the limited modern distribution of the species made the latter authors suggest a relative recent evolutionary origin. Tonnacypris estonica has a large morphological variability in both valves (Fig. 6, see also Fig. 1 C–F) and soft parts (Fig. 6). The ‘typical’ form (the most common form in western Mongolia, with valve shape most similar to the original description) has relatively low valve height, relatively short G 2 claw on A 2, and relatively short d 2 seta on T 2. The ‘high’ form has on average the highest valve height, relatively long G 2 claws on A 2 and long d setae on T 2. There are also some ‘intermediate’ forms, which have also relatively high valves, but relatively shorter G 2 claws on A 2 and d setae on T 2 than the ‘high’ form. The forms mentioned here are just morphological groups of individuals, more to illustrate the variability between different specimens and different characters than as an attempt to group some kind of related lineages. The morphological forms co-occur in different sites and habitats in western Mongolia, but the ‘high’ form has only been recorded at the most elevated, alpine sites. There is also considerable variation in the peg on the left valve: sometimes this is well expressed and obvious, sometimes hardly noticeable.

Colour: whitish. A 1 (Fig. 8 A) with Wouters organ minute, Rome organ small; terminal segment with two long setae and one shorter claw, aesthetasc Ya subequal to the latter claw. A 2 (Fig. 8 B) with natatory setae short but unequal in length, the longest (usually second or third seta) just reaching the proximal edge of the terminal segment; claw G 2 distincly shorter than other terminal claws, usually about 1.2 times the length of the penultimate segment. Md-palp (Fig. 8 D) with smooth α-seta; serrated β-seta quite short and stout, associated with a group of four smooth setae and one barbed seta; serrated γ-seta stout. Mx 1 (Fig. 9 A) with seven (5 + 2) setae on the first segment of the palp; terminal segment of this palp slightly spatulate; tooth bristles on third endite smooth; sideways-directed bristles on first endite serrated; respiratory plate (Fig. 9 B) with 19 + 6 filaments.

L = 2.00– 2.15 mm (n = 5), H = 962 µm– 1.04 mm (n = 4), W = 880 µm (n = 1) Ecology. This species was found in two sites with a spring discharge zone and associated streams, one large lake (permanent), and one temporary pond, which was recently merged with the adjacent lake (Table 1). Water temperature of Mongolian localities: 3.5–12.5 °C, pH 7.8–9 and conductivity 282–479 µS/cm. Altitude: 1998–2426 m. Distribution. Living populations are currently only known from the northwestern part of the Mongolian Altaï mountains (Table 1), and from the Kirgizian Tien-Shan mountains (Schornikov 2007). Fossil Pleistocene material reported from Germany (Weichselian, Saalian, Elster; Diebel & Pietrzenik 1975; Griffiths 1995), France (Early Würm; Diebel & Pietrzenik 1975; Absolon 1976), Czech (Warthe; Absolon 1976) and the United Kingdom (Early Devesnian, Hoxnian; Green et al. 1983; Preece et al. 2006). Differential diagnosis. The species can be distinguished from: Tonnacypris estonica by its larger size, more conspicuous posterodorsal angle, steeply sloping posterior margin, anterior and posterior pegs on calcified inner lamella of LV, short G 2 claw on A 2, group of four setae next to β seta on Md palp, stout γ seta on Md palp, seven setae on the first segment of Mx palp and the slender proximal setae of CR. Tonnacypris edlundi n. sp. by its larger size, more elongated valves, more conspicuous posterodorsal angle, steeply sloping posterior margin, short claw G 2 on A 2, short natatory setae on A 2, group of four setae near β seta on Md palp, stout γ seta on Md palp and seven setae on the first segment of Mx palp. Tonnacypris mazepovae n. sp. by its more conspicuous posterodorsal angle, steeply sloping posterior margin, broader anterior calcified inner lamella, stout γ seta on Md palp and smooth tooth bristles on third endite Mx. Tonnacypris glacialis by its more conspicuous posterodorsal angle, steeply sloping posterior margin, anterior and posterior pegs on the calcified lamella of LV, conspiciuous posterodorsal angle, stout γ seta on Md palp and smooth tooth bristles on third endite Mx. Tonnacypris lutaria by its more conspicuous posterodorsal angle, steeply sloping posterior margin, anterior and posterior pegs on the calcified lamella of LV, conspicuous posterodorsal angle, stout γ seta on Md palp and smooth tooth bristles on third endite Mx. Remarks. This species was known as a fossil from Pleistocene sediments and was originally described in the genus Amplocypris Zalányi, 1944, because of the similarity with the elongated valves, pronounced posteroventral angle and occurence of a peg on the anteroventral calcified part of the inner lamella of the left valve in some species of this genus. When Recent specimens of Amplocypris tonnensis were discovered, the species was, based on similarities of soft parts, transferred to the genus Tonnacypris. We here present the first record from Mongolia, and the first description of the soft parts of this species.Published as part of Meeren, Thijs Van Der, Khand, Yondon & Martens, Koen, 2009, On Recent species of To n n a c y p r i s Diebel & Pietrzeniuk, 1975 (Crustacea, Ostracoda), with new species descriptions from Mongolia, pp. 1-41 in Zootaxa 2015 on pages 4-16, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18593
