what were the goals of the women's rights movement | <P> The women's rights, or feminist movement, has had a huge impact. Prior to 1920 women did not even have the right to vote in the US. Women were at one time thought to be incapa … ble of doing any job other than that of housewife or prostitute. 1 A Brief History of the Feminist Movement Similar to most civil rights movements, the feminist movement does not have a concrete beginning and end. 2 Rather, it is a series of beliefs about equality that continue to gr…. 3 Famous Quotes on Women's Rights In the history of women's rights, many have spoken up eloquently. <P> The beginning of the fight for women’s suffrage in the United States, which predates Jeannette Rankin ’s entry into Congress by nearly 70 years, grew out of a larger women’s rights movement. Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, a Massachusetts teacher, met in 1850 and forged a lifetime alliance as women’s rights activists. For much of the 1850s they agitated against the denial of basic economic freedoms to women. <P> For some, the goals of the feminist movement were simple: let women have freedom, equal opportunity and control over their lives. Here are some specific feminist movement goals from the “ second wave ” of feminism. 1 Rethinking society with feminist theory. 2 This was accomplished by, among other disciplines, women’s studies, feminist literary criticism, gynocriticism, socialist feminism and the feminist art movement. 3 Abortion rights on demand. 1 Leaders of the women’s liberation movement were clear that women should have reproductive freedom and safe access to legal abortion. 2 De-Sexing the English Language. 3 Feminists helped spark debate over assumptions embedded in our language that reflect the assumption of a male-dominated patriarchal society. <P> The Civil Rights Movement occurred in the 1950s. The three goals of the movement were to end racial segregation, to give equal opportunities in employment and equal opport … unities in education. 4 people found this useful. Women were always put down and were treated like slaves at the time. They would … clean and take care of their children and that was about it. Their husbands would beat them up, cheat on them and think of them as property instead of an actual human being. <P> 1 Women's Role in the Civil Rights Movement The Civil Rights Movement was an intensely important era for the United States. 2 Unfortunately, the women of this movement are seldom mentioned, and often were pushed to the s…. Women were always put down and were treated like slaves at the time. They would … clean and take care of their children and that was about it. Their husbands would beat them up, cheat on them and think of them as property instead of an actual human being. <P> The process of mobilizing a women's rights movement was, in fact, far more complex. Before the Civil War, activists organized local and national women's rights conventions in Indiana, Massachusetts, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. By 1869 the women's rights movement had split into two factions: the National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA), led by Stanton and Anthony, and the American Woman Suffrage Association (AWSA), supported by Lucy Stone and Antoinette Brown Blackwell. <P> One of the causes for the women rights movements was the unfair treatment of women at the time. Women were always put down and were treated like slaves at the time. They would … clean and take care of their children and that was about it. Their husbands would beat them up, cheat on them and think of them as property instead of an actual human being. <P> Feminism is a range of movements and ideologies that share a common goal: to define, establish, and achieve equal political, economic, cultural, personal, and social rights for women. This includes seeking to establish equal opportunities for women in education and employment. <P> However, the women's rights movement was more general- they … also wanted job equality for women, the right to a good education, the right to be their own person (not a possession of their husband), and many other rights. They really wanted women to be equal to men. 1 A Brief History of the Feminist Movement Similar to most civil rights movements, the feminist movement does not have a concrete beginning and end. 2 Rather, it is a series of beliefs about equality that continue to gr…. 3 Famous Quotes on Women's Rights In the history of women's rights, many have spoken up eloquently. <P> Women's Rights Movements. The American women's rights movement is usually dated from the convention held in Seneca Falls, New York, in 1848 to discuss the Social, Civil, and Religious Condition of Woman.. By 1869 the women's rights movement had split into two factions: the National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA), led by Stanton and Anthony, and the American Woman Suffrage Association (AWSA), supported by Lucy Stone and Antoinette Brown Blackwell. | The goal of the movement was to have job equality for women, the right to a good education, the right to be their own person (not a possession of their husband), and many other rights. |
how to get toddler to sleep in their own room | <P> Step 2. Talk to your toddler about sleeping in her own bed in a positive way. Avoid criticizing or punishing your toddler if she doesn’t want to sleep in her bed because she might associate that with sleeping in the bed. Praise her for positive steps toward sleeping alone. <P> Use the crib as a crib, not a playpen. Baby's bed is for sleeping, not playtime. To multifunction that space is to confuse baby. Have a routine. Nothing is more key to success in getting baby to sleep in her own room than having a consistent bedtime routine. If baby is unused to the space, then focus that bedtime ritual in the room. <P> 5. Use a tent to transition your child into their own room. As a compromise, you could allow your child to sleep in your room, but rather than in your bed, have them sleep in a tent or camp out in your room. 1 Set up a kid's tent at the foot of your bed and let your child camp every night. 2 Then, slowly move the tent out of your room and into your child's room. 1 Set up a kid's tent at the foot of your bed and let your child camp every night. 2 Then, slowly move the tent out of your room and into your child's room. 3 Allow your child to sleep in the tent in their room every night, but move your child's bedding and stuffed animals into their bed. <P> 2. Slowly move your baby into his own room. Put the crib by your door a few nights, then into the hallway and finally his room. You can make it easier for your baby if he has a good nighttime routine. You can also consider transitioning with naps in his room first. It makes it much easier to get up in the middle of the night for feedings or to change your baby’s diaper. Your baby might not settle down if you aren’t near. It can also make the transition to his own room harder. Some people think that babies who co-sleep breastfeed more despite disturbing their mom’s sleep less. <P> Spend time with them before bed. This is a good time to read to them. At the start, use special gifts from the sleep fairy, like the tooth fairy. If they sleep in their own bed, they get a little morning present. Have a sleep party with mom and dad in the kid's bed for several nights in a row. That way they get the security of the parents' company with the comfort of their own beds. <P> Moving your baby from your bed to sleeping alone in a cot can be a challenge, but it's entirely possible. A lot depends on your baby's age. Bear in mind that it's best for your baby to sleep in the same room as you for his first six months. Ideally, he should sleep in a cot next to your bed. Your baby's wriggling and noisy breathing may be keeping you awake at night. <P> It depends on how old your baby is and how comfortable you are sleeping separately from him. For the first couple of weeks, it's easier to keep your baby in the same room while you get used to his sleeping patterns, breathing noises, and hunger signals. After that, consider keeping his crib in your bedroom for up to a year. <P> A crib in your room is an excellent option as it helps you recognize your baby’s breathing patterns, gives you peace of mind and helps with feedings. Healthy babies can go into their own rooms when they are four to six weeks. It makes it much easier to get up in the middle of the night for feedings or to change your baby’s diaper. Your baby might not settle down if you aren’t near. It can also make the transition to his own room harder. Some people think that babies who co-sleep breastfeed more despite disturbing their mom’s sleep less. | Slowly move your baby into his own room.

what do compost piles do | <P> Construct a bin for your compost. While you still can compost successfully in a pile on the ground, a bin will keep the process neater and will help to discourage animals if you are composting food scraps. Depending on the construction of the bin, it can also help to regulate moisture and temperature. 1 If you believe your compost pile needs more air, turn it, and try adding more dry or brown stuff to open up the structure. 2 Turning a compost pile can be labor intensive and hard on the back. 3 Some people use a shovel or pitchfork. <P> 1 If you use a compost bin with an open bottom, the worms will probably come into your compost pile on their own. 2 Layering is very effective if possible-one layer brown stuff, one layer green stuff, one layer composting worms (as long as the temperature of your compost does not exceed 25ºC). 1 If you believe your compost pile needs more air, turn it, and try adding more dry or brown stuff to open up the structure. 2 Turning a compost pile can be labor intensive and hard on the back. 3 Some people use a shovel or pitchfork. <P> Yard trimmings can be composted without a bin if you do not mind the appearance of an uncontained compost mound in your yard. What To Do-Find a good location and loosen the soil where your pile will be. Pile your yard trimmings in a mound about 3 feet high and at least 3 feet by 3 feet in area. Alternate wet (green) and dry (brown) materials and add materials as they become available. If you mix your compost pile with a pitchfork or other tool, it speeds up the process <P> What to put in a compost pile. When adding raw materials to a pile, it's important to balance nitrogen-rich plant scraps (called greens) and carbon-rich leaves, woodchips, coffee grounds and even bits of paper (called browns). But that's what happens in an outdoor compost pile. Microbes, worms, snails, insects and fungi decompose organic material aerobically, which means they use oxygen as they breakdown the materials in the pile. How it works. Bacteria are the powerhouse of a compost pile. They break down plant matter and create carbon dioxide and heat. Run-of-the-mill microbes usually start off the process, but as their consumption of the compost materials raises the temperature of the pile, heat-loving microorganisms take over <P> Size. The recommended size for a home compost pile is no smaller than 3 feet X 3 feet X 3 feet, and no larger than 5 feet X 5 feet X 5 feet. A smaller pile may not heat up high enough for efficient breakdown, or it may loose heat and quickly slow down the process. Camoflaging a compost pile can be done in many creative ways. Surrounding the pile with tall flowers or plants or using a vine trellis are just a few examples of how to blend a compost pile into its surroundings. <P> Put a pile of leaves, a cardboard box and a watermelon in your back yard, exposed to the elements, and they will eventually decompose. How long each takes to break down depends on a number of factors: 1 What are the materials made of. Camoflaging a compost pile can be done in many creative ways. Surrounding the pile with tall flowers or plants or using a vine trellis are just a few examples of how to blend a compost pile into its surroundings. <P> You can also add garden soil to your compost. A layer of soil will help to mask any odors, and micro-organisms in the soil will accelerate the composting process. Do not compost meat, bones or fish scraps (they will attract pests), perennial weeds (they can be spread with the compost) or diseased plants. <P> A 4- or 5-tined pitch fork for turning your pile is the main item. You will see compost turners advertised in catalogues, and they do work especially for those who lack upper body strength or have back problems. A garden hose or watering can needs to be handy to water your pile. Camoflaging a compost pile can be done in many creative ways. Surrounding the pile with tall flowers or plants or using a vine trellis are just a few examples of how to blend a compost pile into its surroundings. <P> Compost is a key ingredient in organic farming. At the simplest level, the process of composting simply requires making a heap of wetted organic matter known as green waste (leaves, food waste) and waiting for the materials to break down into humus after a period of weeks or months. It is used in gardens, landscaping, horticulture, and agriculture. The compost itself is beneficial for the land in many ways, including as a soil conditioner, a fertilizer, addition of vital humus or humic acids, and as a natural pesticide for soil. | Bacteria are the powerhouse of a compost pile.

when was lao tzu born | <P> The main source of information on Lao Tzu's life is a biography written by the historian Ssu-ma Ch'ien (145–86. ) in his Records of the Historian. By this time a number of traditions or beliefs about the founder of Chinese. Taoism were going around, and Ssu-ma Ch'ien himself was unsure of their authenticity. <P> Biography of Lao Tzu-Founder of Taoism It's hard to pin down a biography of Lao Tzu (570-490 BC). There are numerous legends about him. <P> Lao-tzu is also one of the basic characters of the Chuang-tzu's stories-unfortunately they are mostly fiction. According to Ch'ien, Lao-tzu was born in the state of Ch'u, and his birthplace was in the nowadays Ho-nan province. He was a curator at the Royal Library in Chou when he met Confucius to talk about rites. This conversation offers much insight into the huge differences between Taoists and Confucians. <P> Lao Tzu meets Yin Xi, the Guardian of the Gate of Tibet. Although ascetics and hermits such as Shen Tao (who advocated that one 'abandon knowledge and discard self') first wrote of the 'Tao' it is with the sixth century B.C. philosopher Lao Tzu (or 'Old Sage' -- born Li Erh) that the philosophy of Taoism really began. <P> According to Ch'ien, Lao-tzu was born in the state of Ch'u, and his birthplace was in the nowadays Ho-nan province. He was a curator at the Royal Library in Chou when he. Lao-tzu surname was Li; his name was Erh (meaning ear) - this is why we find him also under the name of Li Erh. <P> Lao Tzu was born in app. 500 BC, in southern China in the state of Ch'u, now known as the Hunan Province. <P> Although ascetics and hermits such as Shen Tao (who advocated that one 'abandon knowledge and discard self') first wrote of the 'Tao' it is with the sixth century BCE philosopher Lao Tzu (or 'Old Sage' -- born Li Erh) that the philosophy of Taoism really began. <P> About Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu was born in app. 500 BC, in southern China in the state of Ch'u, now known as the Hunan Province. Almost nothing is known about Lao Tzu apart from what can be gleaned from the legends that surround his name. <P> For the book also known as Laozi, see Tao Te Ching. Laozi (also Lao-Tzu or Lao-Tze) was a philosopher and poet of ancient China. He is known as the reputed author of the Tao Te Ching and the founder of philosophical Taoism, and as a deity in religious Taoism and traditional Chinese religions. | 500 BC |
how to get accredited for early childhood | <P> NAEYC Accreditation gives families the chance to make the Right Choice for Kids. Benefits of being an NAEYC Accredited Program: 1 Helps to build a stronger team of teachers, administrators, and families working together to improve quality for children. <P> Many accredited colleges and universities offer online degree programs in early childhood education. An Associate’s degree program usually requires two years to complete, while a bachelor’s degree will require four years. <P> Accreditation systems are major part of NAEYC's efforts to improve early childhood education; they allow programs to provide the best learning experiences for young children and their educators by meeting national standards of quality. <P> NAEYC Accreditation of programs for young children represents the mark of quality in early childhood education. NAEYC Accreditation began in 1985 with the goal of providing an accrediting system that would raise the level of early childhood programs. Today, over 6,500 programs are NAEYC Accredited. NAEYC accredited programs invest in early childhood education because they believe in the benefits to children and families. Early childhood experiences—from birth to age 8—have an enormous impact on children’s lifelong learning and positively contribute to their health and development. <P> Accreditation of Programs for Young Children. Since 1985, NAEYC's national accreditation system has set professional standards for early childhood education programs, allowing families to find high-quality programs for their children. <P> How to Become an Accredited Preschool. Preschool accreditation is administered and regulated by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). Accreditation requires that childcare providers uphold strict standards in regards to staff, curriculum, operations and environment. | NAEYC Accreditation of programs for young children represents the mark of quality in early childhood education. |
cost of home dialysis machine | <P> Tweet. Dialysis is expensive….around $30,000 per year. If you have to dialyze, you have two choices as to where you get your treatment: in-center or at home. Both options are covered by Medicare, Medicaid and many private insurances. <P> Tips to know: 1 Before purchasing a home dialysis machine, ensure that it will be cost effective. 2 If the cost of your health insurance covering the use of the dialysis machine will be more expensive than purchasing one for yourself, then it may be a worthwhile investment. <P> In contrast, with home dialysis, his center has to pay a nurse $25 to $50 an hour to work with a patient one-on-one daily for at least three weeks. For patients, the energy cost of running a dialysis machine at home can be a significant barrier. <P> Medicare pays for dialysis regardless of patient age, reimbursing the same amount for at-home or dialysis center care. But Crooks cites Kaiser statistics that home dialysis users require less hospitalization, potentially saving $10,000 to $20,000 in annual health care costs per patient. <P> In the agency's rule on ESRD payments issued last November, the CMS increased the rate for training patients to perform home dialysis by 50%, from $33 a session to $50. Medicare pays 80% of costs associated with dialysis care for services either at home or at a dialysis center. <P> 1 The biggest cost to think about is a nurse to run the dialysis machine. 2 Even if this machine is used at home, an in-home nurse will be needed to run it and supervise the machine and the patient. 3 If the dialysis machine is used in a facility, then there will be a team of nurses available to <P> 1 A basic dialysis machine can be purchased in the regions of $15,000; however, this does not include any necessary supplies such as a drip. 2 For example, a NxStage kidney dialysis machine purchased with supplies can cost upwards of $45,000. 3 This does not include the costs of running the machine. <P> Waste lines will also need to be connected. The cost of furnishing and installing waste and water piping as required will range between $750.00 and $1500.00. Most home hemodialysis machines require a dedicated 20 amperes GFI (ground fault interrupter) circuit. | $15,000 Approximately |
does osap look at your bank account | <P> This only needs to be done ONCE, and will be in place throughout your time as a full-time postsecondary student. The other change you will notice is that once your OSAP application and MSFAA are submitted, funding will be deposited directly into your bank account after your school confirms your enrolment. For your second term funding, we only ask that you update your estimated income. Follow these 4 steps to get your OSAP funding. The process of lining up at your school’s financial aid office to get your OSAP loan document before each term is ending. Canada and Ontario are implementing a lifetime loan agreement that will cover you for all the time you are in full-time postsecondary studies. <P> No OSAP funding will be directed to your bank account. In summary, if you have sufficient OSAP funding to cover your balance owing to the University, the deferral of your fee payment is AUTOMATIC and there is NO ACTION required by you with the exception of you agreeing to fee redirection when you apply for OSAP funding. Example #2: August 15, fees are due. Your Account Summary Balance indicates that you currently owe $5000 (Actual Fees are $7000-$2000 in scholarships) and you are due to receive $4500 in OSAP funding. A payment is required by you in the amount of $500 by the fee deadline date. <P> There should be two deposits into my bank account but I only see one. Generally, if you have a Canada Student Loan and an Ontario Student Loan and a Canada Student Grant OSAP disbursement, you may see up to 3 deposits into your bank account. Each deposit may be made within 2 - 3 business days of one another. Example #2: August 15, fees are due. Your Account Summary Balance indicates that you currently owe $5000 (Actual Fees are $7000-$2000 in scholarships) and you are due to receive $4500 in OSAP funding. A payment is required by you in the amount of $500 by the fee deadline date. <P> Location: Toronto, ON. From what OSAP reps told me, only RESP funds you have access to are reported. Also, if you have savings, that will affect the amount OSAP lends/grants you. What I recommend is if your account is student account under your parents, you do not claim is as your own. After all, it's under your parents name, right? <P> If your OSAP funding consists of both federal and provincial loans and/or grants, there will be more than one deposit on separate days to your bank account. Please check your OSAP account on the OSAP website to confirm the breakdown of your OSAP funding. Your OSAP funding is released to you in two installments. <P> Best Answer: (a) OSAP does not check your bank account. However at the end of the year, you will have earned interest on that money and you will be expected to report that interest on your tax form. <P> Originally Posted by wnhan1 Hey guys, I have recently applied for OSAP for the academic year of 2011-12 and it was estimated that I would not receive any money. Apparently, my income from January 2011 to August 2011 will be too high for any type of funding. <P> 1 OSAP: Check OSAP funding entitlement by logging into your OSAP account. 2 Bank Account: At the beginning of the term, confirm OSAP funding has been deposited to your personal bank account. 3 Funds are usually deposited at the beginning of the study period if the application process is completed by the appropriate due dates. If you already have an OSAP account and have forgotten your Ontario Access Number (OAN) or password please visit the financial aid office of any Ontario college or university for assistance. Be sure to have your government issued photo identification and your SIN card when inquiring about <P> They care about how much is in your bank account as OSAP is need based-meaning that if you have money that is sitting there unused, it has to go towards school. $10-15k is a lot of money-you'll probably be denied OSAP or given a very limited amount. By the time i go back to school after a year, I'll have around 10~15k saved up and I was just wondering if I had this money seating in my bank account, could I be declined of my osap? or my grant for that matter? | OSAP does not check your bank account.

what is glass primarily made of | <P> Believe it or not, glass is made from liquid sand. You can make glass by heating ordinary sand (which is mostly made of silicon dioxide) until it melts and turns into a liquid. You won't find that happening on your local beach: sand melts at the incredibly high temperature of 1700°C (3090°F). <P> Sand mostly. glass is made from sand which they heat to make it transparent....... also right now the glass from anything in melting but so slowly that it will take about over 1 million years for it shrink considerably. sorry but i don't why is is made out of that. <P> Glass is a state of matter. It is a solid produced by cooling molten material so that the internal arrangement of atoms, or molecules, remains in a random or disordered state, similar to the arrangement in a liquid. Such a solid is said to be amorphous or glassy. <P> Lava is made up of crystals, volcanic glass, and bubbles (volcanic gases). As magma gets closer to the surface and cools, it begins to crystallize minerals like olivine and form bubbles of volcanic gases. When lava erupts it is made up of a slush of crystals, liquid, and bubbles. The liquid freezes to form volcanic glass. Chemically lava is made of the elements silicon, oxygen, aluminum, iron, magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and titanium (plus other elements in very small concentrations. <P> A stove top could be made of glass. The glass commonly used in cookware is called borosilicate. Borosilicate is made by the addition of the element boron. This treatment gives the glass a highly valuable quality, resistance to temperature fluctuation. <P> In the technical sense, glass is an inorganic product of fusion which has been cooled to a rigid condition without crystallizing. Many glasses contain silica as their main component and glass former. Pure silica (SiO2) has a glass melting point— at a viscosity of 10 Pa·s (100 P)— of over 2300 °C (4200 °F). <P> Once the sand is melted, it is either poured into molds to make bottles, glasses, and other containers, or floated (poured on top of a big vat of molten tin metal) to make perfectly flat sheets of glass for windows. Unusual glass containers are still sometimes made by blowing them. <P> Glass is made of silicon. The only mineral made up exclusively by silicon is quartz, which is also the main mineral in common sand. So the answer is quartz, but you're not wrong thinking sand, only sand is not a mineral. <P> Uranium glass has an unusual yellow-green color and glows in ultraviolet light. These glass pieces were made using waste uranium from the cleanup of the Fernald uranium processing plant near Cincinnati, Ohio, USA. Vitrification (turning a material into glass) is one way to dispose of nuclear waste safely. | Liquid sand |
end products of complete aerobic oxidation of glucose | <P> The three key steps of aerobic respiration are glycolysis where the sugar glucose is broken down, the Kreb's cycle where products from glycolysis are converted to other molecules and cellular energy and the electron-transport chain where molecules from the Kreb's cycle split apart to fuel the cell. <P> In aerobic prokaryotes, 38 ATP molecules can be produced form complete oxidation of a glucose molecule in glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. <P> In the second stage of aerobic oxidation, pyruvate formed in glycolysis is transported into mitochondria, where it is oxidized by O 2 to CO 2. These mitochondrial oxidation reactions generate 34 of the 36 ATP molecules produced from the conversion of glucose to CO 2. <P> During glycolysis, two water molecules are produced when glucose is broken down. Another water molecule is given off during the early stages of the Kreb's cycle. Additional water molecules are given off during the electron-transport stage of aerobic respiration. <P> The complete aerobic oxidation of glucose is coupled to the synthesis of as many as 36 molecules of ATP: Glycolysis, the initial stage of glucose metabolism, takes place in the cytosol and does not involve molecular O 2. It produces a small amount of ATP and the three-carbon compound pyruvate. <P> For each molecule of glucose--a sugar that acts as your body's main source of energy--aerobic respiration produces six molecules of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide contains one atom of carbon and two atom of oxygen. This molecule is regarded as a waste product, and carbon dioxide is released every time you exhale. <P> If one molecule of a sugar such as glucose is broken down completely during aerobic respiration, it yields 38 molecules of high-energy ATP. Up to eight of these come from the first, anaerobic stages (glycolysis). The other 30 are obtained from the second, aerobic or oxygen-requiring stages of the Krebs cycle. <P> The products of complete glucose oxidation are carbon dioxide and water. Because these molecules represent the products of a thorough energy extraction, they're essentially cellular waste products -- the cell can't use them to provide additional energy. Cells recycle water produced through glucose oxidation. | 38 molecules of high-energy ATP |
nutritional yeast side effects | <P> Gastrointestinal Effects. Brewer's yeast is sometimes used to treat diarrhea and constipation. It can have a similar water-binding effect to fiber. The more common side effects of supplementing with brewer's yeast are those of a gastrointestinal nature, such as gas, flatulence and a laxative effect. Brewer's yeast can have adverse effects as well as beneficial ones. You can use brewer's yeast, the type used to make beer, not bread, as a nutritional supplement. It can potentially lower your risk for high cholesterol and help you control your weight and blood sugar levels, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center website <P> Nutritional Yeast: The Good and the Bad and What You Need to Know If You Seek a Stronger Immune System. All your questions answered on nutritional yeast, including what you might NOT know about brewer's and baker's yeasts and which yeast is actually an immune system booster! At Body Ecology we teach about microflora... the beneficial bacteria and yeast in your inner ecosystem that are essential immune system boosters. While candida albicans is an example of a harmful yeast, It's important to know that there are also yeasts that are very beneficial for your health. Just because a food or drink contains yeast, this does not mean that it is necessarily a damaging yeast. <P> People who follow a vegan diet use nutritional yeast as a dietary supplement. Nutritional yeast may be used as a garnish on top of some dishes or as an ingredient in the mixture. From a health point of view, nutritional yeast scores extremely high. It contains many proteins, vitamins and minerals. B-complex vitamins are present in this food item. These side effects are similar to those suffered by people who have a problem with monosodium glutamate, MSG. These side effects include chest pains, digestive distress and a feeling of being bloated. This is because there is a type of glutamate that may be present in the yeast as well. <P> Not yeast. Bacteria is the source. Nutritional Yeast is not like regular yeast. Too much Nutritional Yeast... no side effects. You will just be wasting your money because all the excess will go down the toilet unused by your body, but your body will still use energy to break it down... so you will also wast your body's energy too. <P> However, brewer's yeast can also cause side effects, especially if you have certain health conditions. Brewer's yeast is sometimes used to treat diarrhea and constipation. It can have a similar water-binding effect to fiber. The more common side effects of supplementing with brewer's yeast are those of a gastrointestinal nature, such as gas, flatulence and a laxative effect. Brewer's yeast can have adverse effects as well as beneficial ones. You can use brewer's yeast, the type used to make beer, not bread, as a nutritional supplement. It can potentially lower your risk for high cholesterol and help you control your weight and blood sugar levels, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center website <P> Nutritional yeast is a culinary supplement that can be used as a flavoring agent. Nutritional yeast is a yellow colored powder like substance. Depending on the manufacturer, it may taste like some nuts, like parmesan cheese or like cream. These side effects are similar to those suffered by people who have a problem with monosodium glutamate, MSG. These side effects include chest pains, digestive distress and a feeling of being bloated. This is because there is a type of glutamate that may be present in the yeast as well. <P> Don't confuse nutritional yeast with baker's yeast, which is still active and could grow inside your stomach, depriving you of nutrients, or with brewer's yeast, which is inactive but distinctly bitter. Purchase nutritional yeast at almost any health food store, usually in bulk. <P> BREWER'S YEAST Side Effects & Safety. Brewer's yeast seems POSSIBLY SAFE for most people when taken by mouth short-term. It can cause headache, stomach discomfort, and gas (flatulence). Not enough is known about the safety of long-term use of brewer’s yeast. Stick with short-term use. Pregnancy and breast-feeding: There is not enough reliable information about the safety of taking brewer’s yeast by mouth if you are pregnant or breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use. Yeast allergy: People who are allergic or sensitive to yeast might experience itching and swelling. Crohn’s disease: Brewer's yeast can make Crohn's disease worse. Don’t use brewer’s yeast if you have Crohn’s disease. <P> There is also low sodium content. All these facts make it clear that nutritional yeast is a champion for anybody suffering from a condition that requires them to reduce fat intake and reduce sodium intake. It is important to note that some people may suffer from side effects when consuming nutritional yeast.

The students' festival (Semana Academica académica Da universidade Do), algarve organized every year by students from The university of The, algarve is also an important event In. faro <P> Farro is an ethnobotanical term derived from Italian Latin for a group of three wheat species: spelt (triticum spelta), emmer (triticum dicoccum), and einkorn (triticum monococcum) which are types of hulled wheat (wheat which cannot be threshed). Farro is a food composed of the grains of certain wheat species. The exact definition is debated. It is sold dried and is prepared by cooking in water until soft, but still crunchy (many recommend first soaking overnight). <P> Farro is a whole grain, much like other whole grains such as barley and wheat berries. While farro is a type of wheat, a few different kinds of wheat are sometimes called farro. Each type of farro, however, is a kind of wheat, so while farro is a whole grain, it is, never gluten-free. <P> Because part of the grain has been removed, these types of faro will cook more quickly than whole grain faro. 1 Use faro in place of Arborio rice to make risotto. 2 Stir cooked farro into brothy soups. 3 Mix warm cooked farro with milk or cream and top with honey and nuts for a hearty breakfast. Fiber Fix. A cup of faro has about 8 grams of cholesterol-lowering fiber. That's four times as much as white rich; brown rice weighs in at around 5 grams. <P> This is the software driver and associated device control package for the FARO LS color laser scanner.

Farro is an ancient wheat grain with a chewy texture and mellow nuttiness. Because it is a kind of wheat, it should not be served to anyone who has celiac disease or is gluten intolerant. Contrary to popular belief, farro is not the same thing as spelt. Most of the farro we buy has been pearled or semi-pearled, which makes it faster and easier to cook. | Faro, is situated in a privileged position, three hours and 30 minutes by plane from the principal European destinations, and two hours and 30 minutes from Lisbon, across the A2, and less than one hour from Andalusia, across the A22. |
respiratory disease caused by airborne bacteria | <P> Airborne Diseases. Airborne diseases are caused by pathogenic microbes small enough to be discharged from an infected person via coughing, sneezing, laughing and close personal contact or aerosolization of the microbe. The discharged microbes remain suspended in the air on dust particles, respiratory and water droplets. 1 Many bacteria can cause disease. 2 A spore is a cell that is dormant (asleep) but may come to life with the right conditions. 3 Coronavirus-Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that includes viruses that may cause a range of illnesses in humans, from the common cold to SARS and MERS. <P> Airborne diseases can be spread via respiratory droplets expelled from the mouth and nose. An airborne disease is any disease that is caused by pathogens and transmitted through the air. Such diseases include many that are of considerable importance both in human and veterinary medicine. For example, Newcastle disease is an avian disease that affects many types of domestic poultry worldwide which is transmitted via airborne contamination. Often, airborne pathogens or allergens cause inflammation in the nose, throat, sinuses, and the upper airway lungs. <P> Airborne diseases can also affect non-humans. For example, Newcastle disease is an avian disease that affects many types of domestic poultry worldwide which is transmitted via airborne contamination. Often, airborne pathogens or allergens cause inflammation in the nose, throat, sinuses, and the upper airway lungs. <P> Food and Lung. Airborne microbes, allergens and chemicals cause respiratory disease-inflammation in the nose, throat, sinuses, upper airway and the lung. Many infections are acquired by inhalation of pathogens that may remain in the respiratory system but also invade the rest of the body through lymphatic and blood circulations. Not all respiratory diseases are caused by airborne pathogens. If asthma, bronchitis and/or nose sinus congestion is chronic or attacks occur frequently in all seasons and are not related to airborne exposure, then consider delayed pattern food allergy as the cause and do diet revision using the Alpha Nutrition Program. <P> A disease is classified as airborne when respiratory droplets from one person can easily contaminate the next person. Viruses, bacteria and fungus may be to blame for causing such diseases. Airborne transmission happens when the bacteria or virus travel on respiratory droplets or dust. Simply washing the hands and covering the mouth when sneezing can decrease the prevalence of contracting an airborne disease. <P> An airborne disease can be caused by exposure to a source: an infected patient or animal, by being transferred from the infected person or animal’s mouth, nose, cut, or needle puncture. People receive the disease through a portal of entry: mouth, nose, cut, or needle puncture. For example, Newcastle disease is an avian disease that affects many types of domestic poultry worldwide which is transmitted via airborne contamination. Often, airborne pathogens or allergens cause inflammation in the nose, throat, sinuses, and the upper airway lungs. <P> Airborne Diseases.

which vegetables are legumes | <P> Beans and other legumes: Cooking tips. This guide describes common types of beans and legumes, tips for preparing them, and ways to add more legumes to your meals and snacks. Legumes — a class of vegetables that includes beans, peas and lentils — are among the most versatile and nutritious foods available. Legumes are typically low in fat, contain no cholesterol, and are high in folate, potassium, iron and magnesium. They also contain beneficial fats and soluble and insoluble fiber. <P> A legume (/ˈlɛɡjuːm/ or /ˌləˈɡjuːm/) is a plant in the family Fabaceae (or Leguminosae), or the fruit or seed of such a plant. Legumes are grown agriculturally, primarily for their food grain seed (example beans and lentils, or generally pulse), for livestock forage and silage, and as soil-enhancing green manure. Legumes are notable in that most of them have symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria in structures called root nodules. <P> Beans and Vegetables Legumes. Beans and vegetable legumes shown in Table 9 (Crop Group 6) include several dry and succulent beans and peas, such as Southern peas and green/snap beans, as well as lima and mung beans. They are grown predominately in the High Plains and Rolling Plains. Vegetable Legumes. Dry beans* . Dry beans are a low-input crop with little or no fertilizer and few crop protection chemicals. Consists of beans that ripen prior to harvest and are sold dry, such as black-eyed peas, cowpeas, pintos (yields 3,000 pounds per acre), and kidney beans. Black-eyes yield 1,500 to 2,000 pounds. <P> Well-known legumes include alfalfa, clover, peas, beans, lentils, lupins, mesquite, carob, soybeans, peanuts and tamarind. A legume fruit is a simple dry fruit that develops from a simple carpel and usually dehisces (opens along a seam) on two sides. A common name for this type of fruit is a pod, although the term pod is also applied to a few other fruit types, such as that of vanilla (a capsule) and of radish (a silique). Legumes are grown agriculturally, primarily for their food grain seed (example beans and lentils, or generally pulse), for livestock forage and silage, and as soil-enhancing green manure. Legumes are notable in that most of them have symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria in structures called root nodules. <P> Legume Vegetables & Fruits. Legume Family (Fabaceae) Scarlet runner bean (Phaseolus coccineus), a valuable bean native to Central America. Unlike other species of Phaseolus, the flowers are bright red and even the seed coats are tinged with pinkish-red. There are literally hundreds of varieties of these two species of legumes, including beans and peas with many different sizes, colors, shapes and growth habits. They represent a major component of the world's vegetables. Fresh green pods of the fava or broad bean (Faba vulgaris) <P> Legumes are the seeds of the plant and are eaten in their immature form as green peas and beans, and the mature form as dried peas, beans, lentils and chickpeas. Vegetables can be broken up into different groups, with each group providing their own unique nutrients. The main sub-groups for vegetables are: Green vegetables (including some salad vegetables), beetroot, cauliflower, asparagus, dried peas, beans and lentils are a good source of folate. Cruciferous vegetables (such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, brussels sprouts and bok choy) are believed to have compounds which provide protection against some cancers. | Green vegetables, beetroot, cauliflower, asparagus, dried peas, beans and lentils. |
what are the symptoms of lupus disease | <P> Lupus Overview. Lupus, an autoimmune disease, happens when the immune system attacks its tissues, causing inflammation, swelling, pain, and damage. Lupus symptoms include fatigue, joint pain, fever, and a lupus rash. <P> The signs and symptoms of lupus that you experience will depend on which body systems are affected by the disease. The most common signs and symptoms include: 1 Fatigue and fever. 2 Joint pain, stiffness and swelling. 3 Butterfly-shaped rash on the face that covers the cheeks and bridge of the nose. <P> Lupus is a chronic, autoimmune disease that can damage any part of the body (skin, joints, and/or organs inside the body). Chronic means that the signs and symptoms tend to last longer than six weeks and often for many years. <P> Lupus is a chronic inflammatory disease that occurs when your body's immune system attacks your own tissues and organs. Inflammation caused by lupus can affect many different body systems — including your joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart and lungs. <P> Lupus is an autoimmune disease that causes swelling (inflammation) and a wide variety of symptoms. Lupus affects each individual uniquely. Some people have only a few mild symptoms and others have many, more severe symptoms. Symptoms usually start in early adulthood, anywhere from the teen years to the 30s. <P> About Lupus. Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can affect various parts of the body, including the skin, joints, heart, lungs, blood, kidneys, and brain. Normally, the body's immune system makes proteins called antibodies to protect the body against viruses, bacteria, and other foreign materials. <P> Many of these symptoms occur in other illnesses. In fact, lupus is sometimes called the great imitator because its symptoms are often like the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, blood disorders, fibromyalgia, diabetes, thyroid problems, Lyme disease, and a number of heart, lung, muscle, and bone diseases. | Fatigue, fever, Joint pain, stiffness, swelling, butterfly-shaped rash on the face that covers the cheeks and bridge of the nose. |
what fertilizer for daffodils | <P> 1. Fertilize daffodils when the soil needs additional nutrients. Once planted, daffodils usually flower again every year without too much assistance from you. However, because they stay in the ground for a long time, the surrounding soil can become depleted as the plants use up the local nutrients. A slow release balanced fertilizer, or one higher in phosphorus and potash (also called potassium) than nitrogen, works well for daffodils. ‘ 1 Balanced’ means these three main ingredients are in similar proportions. 2 The cheapest option is usually blood, fish and bone fertilizer but take care—it can be very smelly! <P> 2. Feed your daffodils a granular slow-release 10-10-20 or 5-10-12 bulb fertilizer in the fall. Apply it to the surface of the soil according to the manufacturer’s recommendations, keeping the fertilizer off the daffodil’s foliage and roots to prevent chemical burns. Daffodils aren’t heavy feeders, so they don’t require a lot of fertilizer. This is a happy coincidence for many who love growing these cheerful beauties. Light fertilization will produce healthier, happier daffies that will reward you with larger and more abundant blooms. <P> 1. Choose low-nitrogen fertilizers for your daffodils. Excessive levels of nitrogen promote lush foliage growth and reduce bloom numbers -- and may prevent flowering altogether. These plants prefer higher proportions of phosphorus and potassium, also known as potash. Daffodils aren’t heavy feeders, so they don’t require a lot of fertilizer. This is a happy coincidence for many who love growing these cheerful beauties. Light fertilization will produce healthier, happier daffies that will reward you with larger and more abundant blooms. <P> 1. Incorporate fertilizer 6 to 8 inches deep into the soil bed when planting daffodils. Use a low-nitrogen granular fertilizer using the amount listed on the product label. If you use a 8-8-8 or 8-24-24 fertilizer, for example, work in 1/2 pound of fertilizer per 50 square feet of space. Feed daffodils while blooming or just after they finish blooming in the spring. This time, use a granular fertilizer that does not contain nitrogen, such as one labeled 0-10-10 or 0-0-50. <P> Feeding bulbs at planting gives them a good start for their spring debut. Use a bulb food or bone meal and work it into the soil a couple of inches at the bottom of the hole you dug for installation. Mix it in well and then plant the bulb. Mature daffodils respond well to early spring fertilizer. <P> A. Daffodils and other bulbs put on significant root growth in the fall, so it is a good to time fertilize them. Root development continues until soil temperatures fall below 40 degrees and then resumes in the spring as soil temperatures warm. Established Bulbs. For established bulbs, rake back the mulch and broadcast a granular fertilizer across the soil surface. Replace the mulch to protect the soil surface from erosion and nutrient loss to runoff. <P> Fertilize your daffodils again in early spring when the new foliage begins to emerge from the soil. Apply a water-soluble 5-10-10 bulb fertilizer according to the packaging instructions. Water-soluble preparations offer rapid release of nutrients the plants need for successful blooming. Daffodils aren’t heavy feeders, so they don’t require a lot of fertilizer. This is a happy coincidence for many who love growing these cheerful beauties. Light fertilization will produce healthier, happier daffies that will reward you with larger and more abundant blooms. <P> What Kind of Fertilizer to Use. Daffodils prefer a fertilizer that is low in nitrogen and higher in phosphorous and potassium (potash). A high-nitrogen fertilizer will prevent the daffodil from blooming. An ideal nitrogen-phosphorous-potassium ratio for use in the spring is 5-10-10. The best times to fertilize daffodils are once in the fall and once again in the spring. In the fall, you should fertilize before the first hard frost with a slow-release fertilizer. This will nourish the roots during their autumn period of rapid growth, and will preserve the bulb during the winter months. <P> Choose the right kind of fertilizer for your daffodils. A slow release balanced fertilizer, or one higher in phosphorus and potash (also called potassium) than nitrogen, works well for daffodils. ‘ 1 Balanced’ means these three main ingredients are in similar proportions. 2 The cheapest option is usually blood, fish and bone fertilizer but take care—it can be very smelly! | Choose low-nitrogen |
other names for quinoa | <P> Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), pronounced KEEN-WAH, is also called Quinua, meaning “mother grain,” in Inca language. Other names for Quinoa include vegetable caviar and Inca Rice. <P> 1 Second, quinoa tastes great on its own, unlike other grains such as millet or teff. 2 Add a bit of olive oil, sea salt and lemon juice and-yum! 3 Finally, of all the whole grains, quinoa has the highest protein content, so it's perfect for vegetarians and vegans. <P> Since Quinoa is not an Indian crop, I am not sure it has an Indian (or a Hindi) name. I have heard that it is available in few select shops in Mumbai and Bangalore. I know of this person, named Wanitha, who imports it from France and distributes it in India. <P> Try a quinoa salad recipe, or serve a vegetable stir-fry over cooked quinoa instead of rice. Quinoa is my favorite whole grain for three reasons: 1 First, it takes less time to cook than other whole grains-just 10 to 15 minutes. 2 Second, quinoa tastes great on its own, unlike other grains such as millet or teff. 3 Add a bit of olive oil, sea salt and lemon juice and-yum! <P> 1. A rose by any other name: Though it is often called a whole grain, quinoa isn’t a grain at all. True grains like wheat and maize are derived from grasses, whereas quinoa is part of a protein-rich plant family that includes fellow iron maidens like spinach and beets. 2. <P> Quinoa (/ˈkiːnoʊ.ə/ , from Quechua kinwa or kinuwa) is a species of the goosefoot genus (Chenopodium quinoa), a grain crop grown primarily for its edible seeds. It is a pseudocereal, similar in some respects to buckwheat, rather than a true cereal, as it is not a member of the true grass family. | Kinwa or Kinuwa. |

Some stories report of sailors mistaking its back for a chain of islands. Sea serpents also appear frequently in later Scandinavian folklore, particularly in that of Norway. In 1028 AD, Saint Olaf is said to have killed a sea serpent in Valldal, Norway, throwing its body onto the mountain Syltefjellet. <P> The sea-serpent is also the symbol for the Celtic Willow Tree Sign. Celtic Sea-Serpent Mythology. In Celtic mythology, sea-serpents were a terrifying creature that reminded people of their mortality, and often, impending death. The Irish Morrigan (the death aspect of the triple lunar goddess) would often take on the form of a sea-serpent when confronting heroes. <P> Celtic Sea-Serpent Tattoo Meanings. Celtic sea-serpent tattoos often represent a connection to the Moon – from its control over the tides to how it intervenes in lives. As such, sea-serpent tattoos have the added meaning of duality – life and death, yin and yang. Celtic sea-serpent tattoos can also signify how life is constantly changing; what we think is negative or harmful is simply an illusion. Celtic Sea-Serpent Mythology.

Your doctor can often diagnose dehydration on the basis of physical signs and symptoms such as little or no urination, sunken eyes, and skin that lacks its normal elasticity and resilience when pinched. 1 Blood tests. 2 Blood samples may be used to check for a number of factors, such as the levels of your electrolytes — especially sodium and potassium — and how well your kidneys are working. 3 Urinalysis. 4 Tests done on your urine can help show whether you're dehydrated and to what degree <P> To help confirm the diagnosis and pinpoint the degree of dehydration, you may have other tests, such as: 1 Blood tests. 2 Blood samples may be used to check for a number of factors, such as the levels of your electrolytes — especially sodium and potassium — and how well your kidneys are working. 3 Urinalysis. 1 Blood tests. 2 Blood samples may be used to check for a number of factors, such as the levels of your electrolytes — especially sodium and potassium — and how well your kidneys are working. 3 Urinalysis. 4 Tests done on your urine can help show whether you're dehydrated and to what degree <P> To help confirm the diagnosis and pinpoint the degree of dehydration, you may have other tests, such as: 1 Blood tests. 2 Urinalysis. 1 Blood tests. 2 Blood samples may be used to check for a number of factors, such as the levels of your electrolytes — especially sodium and potassium — and how well your kidneys are working. 3 Urinalysis. 4 Tests done on your urine can help show whether you're dehydrated and to what degree <P> CBC VALUES. Blood work is a very important diagnostic tool that provides a significant amount of information about your pet’s health. A complete blood count (CBC) is a blood test used to measure and evaluate cells that circulate in the blood. <P> When you have cancer it often seems that someone is always taking blood for some kind of test. Blood tests are done to help watch your body’s response to treatment. They can show small changes before problems get serious. The most common lab test that you’ll have done during treatment is called a complete blood count, or CBC. Blood is made up of water, proteins, nutrients, and living cells. A CBC tells your health care team about the cells in your blood. <P> Blood work is a very important diagnostic tool that provides a significant amount of information about your pet s health. A biochemical profile is a blood test that assesses the function of internal organs, measures the electrolytes such as blood potassium, and identifies the levels of circulating enzymes. Blood work is a very important diagnostic tool that provides a significant amount of information about your pet s health. A complete blood count (CBC) is a blood test used to measure and evaluate cells that circulate in the blood. <P> Laboratory Tests. In cases of severe dehydration, laboratory testing is frequently ordered to identify electrolyte and acid-base imbalances, to evaluate kidney function, and general health status. A diagnosis of dehydration is frequently based upon clinical signs and symptoms, and appropriate treatment is given. Laboratory testing is typically not required for mild to moderate dehydration, but a variety of non-laboratory evaluations may be used to assess an individual with more serious symptoms. <P> Higher amounts of protein in your urine may mean that you have a health problem. Your health care provider will use the results of this test, along with other test results, to diagnose your health problem or track its changes. If your urine is very alkaline, test results may falsely show protein in the urine. Certain medications or bacteria in the urine can have this effect. Blood in the urine may also interfere with the results. <P> 1 Blood pressure-low blood pressure is a late sign of dehydration. 2 Postural hypotension is an early warning sign. 3 Pulse rate-elevated pulse rate is a reliable sign of dehydration in the young but not so reliable in the elderly or in patients on beta blocker or calcium channel blocker medications. 1 | Your doctor can often diagnose dehydration on the basis of physical signs and symptoms such as little or no urination, sunken eyes, and skin that lacks its normal elasticity and resilience when pinched. |
when was the eighth amendment passed | <P> The Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution reads: Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. The Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1791, has three provisions. The cruel and unusual punishments clause restricts the severity of punishments that state and federal governments may impose upon persons who have been convicted of a criminal offense. Courts are given wide latitude under the Excessive Fines Clause of the Eighth Amendment. Fines imposed by a trial court judge or magistrate will not be overturned on appeal unless the judge or magistrate abused his or her discretion in assessing them (United States v. Hyppolite, 65 F.3d 1151 [4th Cir. 1995]). <P> It is not contended in this connection that the prohibition of the Eighth Amendment to the federal Constitution against excessive fines operates to control the legislation of the states. The fixing of punishment for crime or penalties for unlawful acts against its laws is within the police power of the state. The Supreme Court found these laws to be unconstitutional under the Eighth Amendment, in the murder case of Woodson v. North Carolina, 428 U.S. 280 (1976), because these laws remove discretion from the trial judge to make an individualized determination in each case. <P> The Eighth Amendment (Amendment VIII) to the United States Constitution is the part of the United States Bill of Rights (ratified December 15, 1791) prohibiting the federal government from imposing excessive bail, excessive fines, or cruel and unusual punishments, including torture. The Supreme Court found these laws to be unconstitutional under the Eighth Amendment, in the murder case of Woodson v. North Carolina, 428 U.S. 280 (1976), because these laws remove discretion from the trial judge to make an individualized determination in each case. <P> In 1791, this same prohibition became the central component of the Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution. When the United States Constitution was first ratified by the states, it did not contain a Bill of Rights, and it did not prohibit cruel and unusual punishments. (3) The Cruel and Unusual Punishments Clause does not prohibit the death penalty, because capital punishment was permissible in 1791, and because the text of the Constitution mentions the death penalty. Specifically, the Fifth Amendment commands that “No person shall be held to answer for a capital. <P> A Guide to the Eighth Amendment. The Eighth Amendment, or Amendment VIII of the United States Constitution is the section of the Bill of Rights that states that that punishments must be fair, cannot be cruel, and that fines that are extraordinarily large cannot be set. History of the Eighth Amendment. The Eighth Amendment is almost exactly the same as a part of the 1689 English Bill of Rights, which also said that excessive bails or cruel and unusual punishment were unnecessary. <P> The Eighth Amendment was introduced as a part of the Bill of Rights into the U.S. Constitution on September 5, 1789 and was voted for by 9 out of 12 states on December 15, 1791. Understanding the Eighth Amendment Line by Line. History of the Eighth Amendment. The Eighth Amendment is almost exactly the same as a part of the 1689 English Bill of Rights, which also said that excessive bails or cruel and unusual punishment were unnecessary. <P> Excessive bail shall not be required, no excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. The Eighth Amendment Defined: The Eighth Amendment was attached to the Bill of Rights in 1791. The amendment serves as almost an exact replica to a provision within the English Bill of Rights of 1689. Stipulations of the Eighth Amendment: The Eighth Amendment forbids forms of punishments entirely, while outlawing other forms of punishments that are excessive when related to the crime in question or compared to the competence of the aggressor. <P> The Eighth Amendment is a part of the Bill of Rights, which are the first 10 Amendments to the United States Constitution and the framework to elucidate upon the freedoms of the individual.

what is rough er translation | <P> The rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) which is continuous with the outer membrane of the nuclear envelope plays an important role in the sorting of proteins destined for various other locations in the cell, like the Golgi apparatus, the lysosomes and the plasma membrane. There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) - smooth and rough. The rough kind is covered with ribosomes on its outer surface and is involved in protein processing and sorting. The smooth ER is not associated with ribosomes and functions in lipid metabolism. See Figure 10.1. <P> Ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum are called ‘membrane bound’ and are responsible for the assembly of many proteins. This process is called translation. Certain cells of the pancreas and digestive tract produce a high volume of protein as enzymes. CELLS NEED THE ROUGH AND THE SMOOTH. Think of a cell as a “multitude of membranes” we said in an earlier section. This statement certainly applies to the endoplasmic reticulum an organelle found in eukaryotic cells. About 50% of the total membrane surface in an animal cell is provided by endoplasmic reticulum (ER). <P> The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membrane-enclosed tubules and sacs, called cisternae. This network extends from the nuclear envelope throughout the cytoplasm (remember that the outer membrane of the nuclear envelope is continuous with the rough endoplasmic reticulum). There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) - smooth and rough. The rough kind is covered with ribosomes on its outer surface and is involved in protein processing and sorting. The smooth ER is not associated with ribosomes and functions in lipid metabolism. See Figure 10.1. <P> The surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (often abbreviated RER or Rough ER) (also called ergastoplasm) is studded with protein-manufacturing ribosomes giving it a rough appearance (hence its name). The binding site of the ribosome on the rough endoplasmic reticulum is the translocon. Although there is no continuous membrane between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus, membrane-bound vesicles shuttle proteins between these two compartments. Vesicles are surrounded by coating proteins called COPI and COPII. <P> The general structure of the endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes called cisternae. These sac-like structures are held together by the cytoskeleton. The phospholipid membrane encloses a space, the cisternal space (or lumen), which is continuous with the perinuclear space but separate from the cytosol. Although there is no continuous membrane between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus, membrane-bound vesicles shuttle proteins between these two compartments. Vesicles are surrounded by coating proteins called COPI and COPII. <P> There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum, rough and smooth. The outer (cytosolic) face of the rough endoplasmic reticulum is studded with ribosomes that are the sites of protein synthesis. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is especially prominent in cells such as hepatocytes. Although there is no continuous membrane between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus, membrane-bound vesicles shuttle proteins between these two compartments. Vesicles are surrounded by coating proteins called COPI and COPII. <P> Rough ER (RER) is involved in some protein production, protein folding, quality control and despatch. It is called ‘rough’ because it is studded with ribosomes. Smooth E R (SER) is associated with the production and metabolism of fats and steroid hormones. CELLS NEED THE ROUGH AND THE SMOOTH.

About 50% of the total membrane surface in an animal cell is provided by endoplasmic reticulum (ER). <P> Photo by: Lemonade. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a series of interconnected membranes or flattened sacs adjacent and connected to the nuclear membrane. The ER comes in two different morphological forms: smooth endoplasmic reticulum (sER) and rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER). <P> The process of translation. Translation takes place on the ribosomes in the cytoplasm, or found on the rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER): 1 the ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis. 2 the mRNA strand attaches to a ribosome. 3 tRNA molecules [molecules: a collection of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds. 4 each mRNA codon codes for a specific amino acid. 5 the .... After translation, the protein passes into the channels of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for transportation. The protein is then passed from the rough ER to the Golgi apparatus inside tiny fluid-filled sacs, called vesicles. | Ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum are called ‘membrane bound’ and are responsible for the assembly of many proteins.

what does the constant region of an antibody do | <P> Each heavy chain has two regions, the constant region and the variable region. The constant region is identical in all antibodies of the same isotype, but differs in antibodies of different isotypes. The F(ab) regions contain the variable domain that binds to cognate antigens. The Fc fragment provides a binding site for endogenous Fc receptors on the surface of lymphocytes, and is also the site of binding for secondary antibodies. <P> The immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) is the large polypeptide subunit of an antibody (immunoglobulin). A typical antibody is composed of two immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chains and two Ig light chains. Several different types of heavy chain exist that define the class or isotype of an antibody. These heavy chain types vary between different animals. <P> the variable region determines the antibody's specificity (no known effector function) the constant region determines the function of the antibody--determines the class or isotype of the antibody (IgA, IgM, IgE, IgD, IgG) * (the constant domain in the LIGHT chain does NOT determine function). IgA, IgG, and IgD have 3 constant domains in the heavy chain. these each have one hinge region between domain 1 and 2. IgM and IgE have 4 constant domains in the heavy chain. These do NOT have a hinge region and are thus less flexible. all have 1 constant domain in the light chain. <P> Hypervariable regions are regions within the variable regions in both heavy and light chains hypervariable regions are also termed complementary determining regions, CDRs. These regions form the paratope, which is another term given to the part of the variable region that contacts the epitopes on the antigen. When (animal) antibodies are generated that recognize the (human) antibody Fc region/constant region, the antibodies are antiisotypic antibodies. <P> Each antibody consists of four polypeptides two heavy chains and two light chains joined to form a Y shaped molecule. The amino acid sequence in the tips of the Y varies greatly among different antibodies. This variable region, composed of 110-130 amino acids, give the antibody its specificity for binding antigen. The variable region includes the ends of the light and heavy chains. Treating the antibody with a protease can cleave this region, producing Fab or fragment antigen binding that include the variable ends of an antibody. Material used for the studies shown below originated from Fab. The constant region determines the mechanism used to destroy antigen. <P> Define epitope. Epitope is the small region on an antigen that binds to the variable region of an antibody molecule. Each variable domain of an antibody molecule has 3 hypervariable regions (where the epitope of the antigen binds) and 4 framework regions (~80AAs). Each hypervariable region is very short, about 8-11 AAs long and complements the epitope on the antigen. IgA, IgG, and IgD have 3 constant domains in the heavy chain. these each have one hinge region between domain 1 and 2. IgM and IgE have 4 constant domains in the heavy chain. These do NOT have a hinge region and are thus less flexible. all have 1 constant domain in the light chain. <P> New data indicate that both the variable, antigen-binding region of an antibody and the Fc region are capable of influencing anti-cancer immunity (pages 443−446). The technology to create monoclonal antibodies was first described 25 years ago. <P> An antibody, also known as an immunoglobulin, is a glycoprotein capable of binding to the cognate antigen against which it was raised. They are produced in response to the invasion of foreign molecules in the body. Antibodies exist as one or more copies of a Y-shaped unit, composed of four polypeptide chains. The F(ab) regions contain the variable domain that binds to cognate antigens. The Fc fragment provides a binding site for endogenous Fc receptors on the surface of lymphocytes, and is also the site of binding for secondary antibodies. <P> Light chain antibody regions consist of a constant region (C), a joining region (J) and a variable region (V). During the differentiation of the B cell, a deletion joins one V region to one J region. Transcription of the light chain antibody DNA proceeds through the C region and includes the V and J regions. Figure 15.17 B cell differentiation. Determination of the variable region of an antibody occurs during the differentiation of the B cell. As it matures, the variable region is randomly picked from several choices and this is spliced to a constant region. Millions of variable regions are possible by this mechanism. <P> Antibodies are ‘Y’ shaped and the two arms of the ‘Y’ are known as the variable region. This means it is specifically coded to interact with a certain antigen, just as a key is specific for a lock (see Figure 14). The stick of the ‘Y’ is the same in all antibodies (the constant region). It is the variable region (the two arms) that interract with and attach to the antigen. When the antibody sticks to the antigen it neutralises it so that the foreign organism can no longer enter a human cell or cause harm (see Figure 15). | The constant region determines the mechanism used to destroy antigen. |
average daily urine output for pediatric association | <P> For a male OR female, drinking about 2 liters of fluid a day, the normal urine output should be 800 to 2,000 milliliters a day. Urine output below 500 milliliters a day is c … onsidered a low urine output and is a sign of disease. What is the normal daily urine output of a 4 year old? The normal daily urine output for a 4 year old child is 600-700 ml. <P> Normal Urinary Output. The normal range for an adult urinary output is between 400 to 2,000 mL of urine daily -- with a normal fluid intake of about 2 liters per day. Values for normal urinary output may vary slightly between laboratories. A urine output of 500 mL per day is generally considered adequate for normal function. When the kidneys aren't functioning properly, waste and fluid that are typically removed from your body in the urine can accumulate and cause disease. The normal range for an adult urinary output is between 400 to 2,000 mL of urine daily -- with a normal fluid intake of about 2 liters per day. <P> Background. Oliguria is defined as a urine output that is less than 1 mL/kg/h in infants, less than 0.5 mL/kg/h in children, and less than 400 mL daily in adults. <P> Code to add this calci to your website. Just copy and paste the below code to your webpage where you want to display this calculator. Urine output in mL/kg/hr = (Total Urine Output/Weight in Kg)/# of hours Minimum acceptable output: Adult: 0.5-1.0 mL/kg/hr Child: 1.0-2.0 mL/kg/hr. Pediatric Urine Output Calculation is made easier. <P> Answer by Gvlalonde. Confidence votes 132. Average daily intake for an adult is 1200-1500 ml and the output should be equivalent to the intake. The partial answer of 1200-1500 ml seems to only address intake of oral fluids and output of urine fluids. A more complete answer includes fluid input from food and fluid output from stools, perspiration and respiration. <P> Confidence votes 334. The expected urine output for an adult is 0.5ml/kg/hr. This roughly equates to 30-40ml per hour in an average sized adult. For children, it is closer to 1ml/kg/hr. Text books recomend an adult should be 0.5 - 1 ml/kg/hr. What is the normal daily urine output of a 4 year old? The normal daily urine output for a 4 year old child is 600-700 ml. <P> Normal Urine Output. Normal urine output is 800-2000 mm each day if you take in around 2 liters of fluid throughout the day. However, normal values can vary in different laboratories. Some testing facilities will use different test samples or measurements to reach their conclusions. Decreased urine output or oliguria is a condition that causes the body to produce less than 400 millimeters of urine a day. This is not to be confused with conditions where people fail to urinate at all, or conditions like anuria when you produce 50 mm of urine or less. <P> The expected urine output for an adult is 0.5ml/kg/hr. This roughly equates to 30-40ml per hour in an average sized adult. For children, it is closer to 1ml/kg/hr. What is the normal daily urine output of a 4 year old? The normal daily urine output for a 4 year old child is 600-700 ml. | 600-700 ml. |
european rabbit region of origin | <P> French monks in the Champagne region of France are credited with the actual domestication of the wild European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in the fifth century, producing the rabbit we know today as the Champagne De Argent (De Argent means silver). <P> Rabbit. Rabbits came originally from south west Europe and north west Africa. Deliberate introduction to many countries has been so successful that rabbits are often considered as pests, owing to the vast ecological and agricultural damage they can cause <P> I'll take rabbit history back to the European rabbit, which was accidentally discovered on the coast of Spain, around 1200 BC, by Phoenician sailors, an ancient civilization that sailed around the Southern Mediterranean coasts on Galley ships. Romans and Rabbits. The Romans played a big part in rabbit history. When they occupied Spain in around 200 BC they cottoned on to the fact that rabbits were great sources of meat and fur. <P> Habitat European Rabbits are found throughout Europe and in north west Africa. They have been introduced to Australia, New Zealand and South America. They inhabit heathland, grassland, woodland, open meadows and the edges of agricultural land. <P> History. The exact origin of the European Rabbit, also known as the Old World Rabbit, is unclear, but scientific evidence makes it appear that after the end of the last glacial period, the rabbits were only found only on the Iberian Peninsula. <P> The European rabbit became widespread in North America and Australia, for example, where the wild rabbit has become a troublesome pest to farmers and conservationists. Wild rabbits are said to have been first domesticated in the 5th Century by the monks of the Champagne Region in France. Monks were almost certainly the first to keep rabbits in cages as a readily available food source, and the first to experiment with selective breeding for traits such as weight or fur colour. Rabbits were introduced to Britain during the 12th Century, and during the Middle Ages, the breeding and farming of rabbits for meat and fur became widespread throughout Europe. Sources suggest that some women among the Medieval gentry even kept rabbits as pets. <P> Rabbits belong to the order of mammals called Lagomorpha, which includes 40 or so species of rabbits, hares and Pikas. Fossil records suggest that Lagomorpha evolved in Asia... Rabbits belong to the order of mammals called Lagomorpha, which includes 40 or so species of rabbits, hares and Pikas. Fossil records suggest that Lagomorpha evolved in Asia at least 40 million years ago, during the Eocene period. Rabbits were introduced to Britain during the 12th Century, and during the Middle Ages, the breeding and farming of rabbits for meat and fur became widespread throughout Europe. Sources suggest that some women among the Medieval gentry even kept rabbits as pets. <P> Rabbits are a serious mammalian pest and invasive species in Australia causing millions of dollars of damage to crops. Rabbits were introduced to Australia in the 18th century with the First Fleet and became widespread after an outbreak caused by an 1859 release. <P> For general information on all rabbit species, see Rabbit. The European rabbit or common rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) is a species of rabbit native to southwestern Europe (Spain and Portugal) and northwest Africa (Morocco and Algeria). It has been widely introduced elsewhere, often with devastating effects on local biodiversity. A male and female European rabbit (face). The European rabbit is a smallish, grey-brown (or sometimes black) mammal, although it ranks as medium-sized by lagomorph standards. It ranges from 34 to 50 cm (13 to 20 inches) in length, not counting a tail of 4 to 8 cm (1.6 to 3.1 in). | Coast of Spain |
what is a prokaryote and a eukaryote | <P> A prokaryote is a single-celled organism that lacks a membrane-bound nucleus (karyon), mitochondria, or any other membrane-bound organelle. Eukaryotes are organisms, including humans, whose cells have a well defined membrane-bound nucleus (containing chromosomal DNA) and organelles. The division between prokaryotes and eukaryotes reflects the existence of two very different levels of cellular organization. <P> The word prokaryote comes from the Greek πρό- (pro -) before and καρυόν (karyon) nut or kernel . Prokaryotes can be divided into two domains, Archaea and Bacteria, with the remainder of species, called eukaryotes, in the third domain Eukaryota. Eukaryotes are organisms, including humans, whose cells have a well defined membrane-bound nucleus (containing chromosomal DNA) and organelles. The division between prokaryotes and eukaryotes reflects the existence of two very different levels of cellular organization. <P> Prokaryotes are organisms made up of cells that lack a cell nucleus or any membrane-encased organelles. This means the genetic material DNA in prokaryotes is not bound within a nucleus. Additionally, the DNA is less structured in prokaryotes than in eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, DNA is a single loop. Eukaryotes are organisms made up of cells that possess a membrane-bound nucleus (that holds genetic material) as well as membrane-bound organelles. The cell is a fundamental component of our modern definition of life and living things. <P> A prokaryote is a cell without a nucleus and eukaryotes are cells that contain nuclei. There's one quick test to distinguish prokaryotes from eukaryotes: if you can see a single organism, it's a eukaryote. Just about every organism you're familiar with is a eukaryote. Single celled organisms like yeast, paramecia and amoebae are all eukaryotes. Grass, potatoes, and pine trees are all eukaryotes, as are algae, mushrooms, and tapeworms. And, of course, moles, fruit flies, and you are also examples of <P> The presence of a nucleus gives eukaryotes their name, which comes from the Greek ευ (eu, well) and κάρυον (karyon, nut or kernel). Eukaryotic cells also contain other membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria and the Golgi apparatus. In addition, plants and algae contain chloroplasts. The two other domains, Bacteria and Archaea, are prokaryotes and have none of the above features. Eukaryotes represent a tiny minority of all living things; even the cells in a human's body are outnumbered ten to one by bacteria in the gut. <P> The distinction between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is considered to be the most important distinction among groups of organisms. Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, such as the nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not. Differences in cellular structure of prokaryotes and eukaryotes include the presence of mitochondria and chloroplasts, the cell wall, and the structure of chromosomal DNA. Prokaryotes (pro-KAR-ee-ot-es) (from Old Greek pro-before + karyon nut or kernel, referring to the cell nucleus, + suffix-otos, pl. -otes; also spelled procaryotes) are organisms without a cell nucleus (= karyon), or any other membrane-bound organelles. Most are unicellular, but some prokaryotes are multicellular. <P> Eukaryotes. Eukaryotes are organisms made up of cells that possess a membrane-bound nucleus (that holds genetic material) as well as membrane-bound organelles. Genetic material in eukaryotes is contained within a nucleus within the cell and DNA is organized into chromosomes. Eukaryotes are organisms made up of cells that possess a membrane-bound nucleus (that holds genetic material) as well as membrane-bound organelles. The cell is a fundamental component of our modern definition of life and living things. <P> Eukaryotic cells are typically much larger than those of prokaryotes. They have a variety of internal membrane-bound structures, called organelles, and a cytoskeleton composed of microtubules, microfilaments, and intermediate filaments, which play an important role in defining the cell's organization and shape. The two other domains, Bacteria and Archaea, are prokaryotes and have none of the above features. Eukaryotes represent a tiny minority of all living things; even the cells in a human's body are outnumbered ten to one by bacteria in the gut. <P> The difference between the structure of prokaryotes and eukaryotes is so great that it is considered to be the most important distinction among groups of organisms.

what is a fracture] | <P> Fractures can occur in any bone in the body. There are several different ways in which a bone can fracture; for example a clean break to the bone that does not damage surrounding tissue or tear through the skin is known as a closed fracture or a simple fracture. 1 Oblique fracture-A fracture that is diagonal to a bone's long axis. 2 Pathological fracture-when an underlying disease or condition has already weakened the bone, resulting in a fracture (bone fracture caused by an underlying disease/condition that weakened the bone). <P> A fracture is the separation of an object or material into two or more pieces under the action of stress. The fracture of a solid usually occurs due to the development of certain displacement discontinuity surfaces within the solid. A fracture is also the term used for a particular mask data preparation procedure within the realm of integrated circuit design that involves transposing complex polygons into simpler shapes such as trapezoids and rectangles. <P> In an open fracture, the ends of the broken bone tear the skin. When the bone and skin are exposed, they are at risk of infection. This type of fracture is also called a compound fracture. In a closed fracture, the broken bone does not break the skin. A broken bone can be described as a: 1 nondisplaced fracture: The bone is broken into pieces that can be aligned in place. 2 displaced fracture: The bone is broken into pieces that don’t align. 3 hairline fracture: The bone is broken in a thin crack. 4 single fracture: The bone is broken only in one place. <P> A fracture is a broken bone. It can range from a thin crack to a complete break. A bone can fracture crosswise, lengthwise, in several places, or into many pieces. Typically, a bone becomes fractured when it is impacted by more force or pressure than it can support. A broken bone can be described as a: 1 nondisplaced fracture: The bone is broken into pieces that can be aligned in place. 2 displaced fracture: The bone is broken into pieces that don’t align. 3 hairline fracture: The bone is broken in a thin crack. 4 single fracture: The bone is broken only in one place. <P> A fracture is a broken bone. Fractures can range in severity from a crack (known as a hairline or greenstick fracture), to a complete break and separation of a bone that may protrude through your skin (known as an open or compound fracture). A closed fracture is one in which the bones do not break the skin, while in an open (also known as compound) fracture, one or more bone fragments protrudes through the skin. Open fractures are more difficult to treat and have a greater risk of infection <P> The word fracture is often applied to bones of living creatures (that is, a bone fracture), or to crystals or crystalline materials, such as gemstones or metal. Sometimes, in crystalline materials, individual crystals fracture without the body actually separating into two or more pieces. A fracture is also the term used for a particular mask data preparation procedure within the realm of integrated circuit design that involves transposing complex polygons into simpler shapes such as trapezoids and rectangles. <P> Fractures usually result from a traumatic injury to a bone where the continuity of bone tissues or bony cartilage is disrupted or broken. The illustrations above feature common sites where fractures occur. A fracture usually results from traumatic injury to bones causing the continuity of bone tissues or bony cartilage to be disrupted or broken. Fracture classifications include simple, compound, incomplete and complete. <P> Persistent bone or bone marrow infection-if there is a break in the skin, as may happen with a compound fracture, bacteria can get in and infect the bone or bone marrow, which can become a persistent infection (osteomyelitis). Patients may need to be hospitalized and treated with antibiotics. 1 Oblique fracture-A fracture that is diagonal to a bone's long axis. 2 Pathological fracture-when an underlying disease or condition has already weakened the bone, resulting in a fracture (bone fracture caused by an underlying disease/condition that weakened the bone). | A fracture is the separation of an object or material into two or more pieces under the action of stress.

how to vlookup in excel multiple sheets | <P> First remember the syntax for the VLOOKUP Function is: VLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, col_index_num, [range_lookup]). In our formula we know everything except the table_array argument. Remember we don’t know what sheet contains our lookup_value. The COUNTIF part of the formula is checking each sheet in the SheetList to find a match. If it finds a match it counts 1, the other sheets return a zero. Our formula now looks like this: The {1;0;0} above represents the count of matches on the 3 rows in the SheetList. <P> In a blank cell type the Vlookup formula. In the cell, enter this formula: =VLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, col_index_num, range_lookup). 1 You can use any cell to write this is, but remember that whatever cell you choose is entered as the “lookup value” in your function code. <P> There are situations when you have data on many sheets. In this lesson you will teach yourself how to do vlookup in this case. Your task: So, you have your data both in Sheet1 and Sheet2. You want to create a vlookup formula which will analyze data in these two sheets. Your formula will look like this: =VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!A1:B200,2). Explanation: The trick is to write Sheet2!A1:B200 instead of just A1:B200. Sheet2! is the information that you analyze data from the sheet which name is Sheet2. <P> Step 3. Replace A2 in the formula with the cell reference of the first cell in the column from Step 1. Step 4. Replace Sheet1 with the name of the sheet that contains the array VLOOKUP will search. The name of the sheet is the name displayed on the sheet's tab at the bottom of the sheet. Step 5. Replace F10 with the first cell from the array column with the data VLOOKUP searches. Replace 2 with the column reference number for the column in Step 6. If this column is immediately to the right of the column from Step 5, this number is 2. If one column stands between the two, this number is 3; if two do, the number is 4. <P> The idea being that if VLOOKUP doesn’t find a match on the first sheet, it will check the next sheet and so on. The good news is we can, the bad news is it’s a bit complicated….but if you’ve only got a few sheets I‘ll show you an easier formula at the end. The COUNTIF part of the formula is checking each sheet in the SheetList to find a match. If it finds a match it counts 1, the other sheets return a zero. Our formula now looks like this: The {1;0;0} above represents the count of matches on the 3 rows in the SheetList. <P> =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A:B,2,0),IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!A:B,2,0),IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet3!A:B,2,0),*** Missing ***))). You can change the search area and extracting column number of each origin sheet, but make sure your key is always in the first column (the nearest column to column A or column A itself). up vote 3 down vote. Assuming your key is in column A (in all sheets, including the target sheet), and the data to extract is in B columns, type the following formula in column B of the target sheet: You have to give priorities to the origin sheets. Here I assume that you are about to look in sheet1, then in sheet2 and finally in sheet3 <P> Specs: Windows XP. I am looking to do something similar to a Vlookup, but I have 9 sheets through which I want excel to look. Basically, I have a list of names with data that carries through 9 sheets, and then a shorter summary of specific names. I need to get the data on to the summary sheet for each name. <P> Col_index_num. The column index number is the number of the column in the Table_array that contains the data you're looking for. VLOOKUP will try to find the Lookup_value in column 1. Col_index_num tells Excel which column in Table_array to return if it finds the Lookup_value in column 1. Range_lookup Range Lookup is an optional argument in VLOOKUP that can be either True or False. Let's try with an example for a better understanding. The following is the syntax for VLOOK: VLOOKUP(Lookup_value, Table_array, Col_index_num, [Range_lookup]). Lookup_value. Lookup Value is the value you want to search for. Lookup_value can be either an actual value, such as 1234, or it can be a reference to the value stored in a cell, such as A2. | The syntax for the VLOOKUP Function is: VLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, col_index_num. |
what do marriage counselors do | <P> Yes, marriage counseling can work, but it can also destroy your marriage. I’m not trying to scare you away from it, and I don’t have a bias against it. Marriage counseling or couples therapy does have its advantages. But to have success with it, to make your marriage strong and healthy, you need to know the dangers and disadvantages of marriage counseling, too. So, read on. Learn from my failure, and make marriage counseling work for you <P> Marriage counseling, also called couples therapy, is a type of psychotherapy. Marriage counseling helps couples of all types recognize and resolve conflicts and improve their relationships. Through marriage counseling, you can make thoughtful decisions about rebuilding your relationship or going your separate ways. <P> Answer: Marriage Counselors work with married couples to either help them handle marital discord or enhance the marital relationship. Marriage counselors are schooled in teaching couples conflict resolution skills and communication skills. A marriage counselor will begin working with the couple together but may eventually work with each individually. <P> Incompetent: In the case of incompetent marriage counselors, the counselor has not been trained to work with couples together. They believe that working with two people is an expanded version of working with one, but it is not. An individual is easy to listen to, but a battling couple is not. <P> Comstock Images/Stockbyte/Getty Images. Here's help in finding a counselor or psychiatrist and deciding if counseling will work for your marriage. Included is information on what type of couple gets the most from marriage counseling and what type of couple receives the least from marriage counseling. <P> A marriage counselor is not a psychiatrist, and cannot diagnose and treat mental illnesses that play havoc on a marriage. However, the counselor can make suggestions about what underlying issues, such as drug abuse, childhood experiences or depression, he sees that might be contributing to the couple's troubles. A marriage counselor sees both individuals and married couples. Sometimes, a woman will seek counseling on her own because her husband refuses to attend meetings or she wants advice about him without him hearing the conversations. <P> Listens and Suggests. Most marriage counselors stay away from telling a couple whether they should stay together or divorce. Instead, the counselor is trained to help the couple talk to each other in a way that gets real results without the other person getting fired up. A marriage counselor sees both individuals and married couples. Sometimes, a woman will seek counseling on her own because her husband refuses to attend meetings or she wants advice about him without him hearing the conversations. <P> There aren’t any strong claims made by marriage counselors, but it is the general belief among many that counseling can make all the difference in a marriage, and get things back from the brink of divorce, and back to the honeymoon phase again. For marriage counseling to have any positive effect on your relationship, both you and your spouse have to be on board mentally. If either one of you is not taking it seriously then it won’t produce any results, and could even lead to a worsening of your relationship. <P> The role of a marriage counselor is to provide clients a safe, neutral place for couples to talk openly about what is disrupting the marriage. The counselor is highly skilled at making sure each person fights or discusses fairly, without the sense that one person is bullying the other or dominating the discussion. A marriage counselor sees both individuals and married couples. Sometimes, a woman will seek counseling on her own because her husband refuses to attend meetings or she wants advice about him without him hearing the conversations. | Marriage Counselors work with married couples to either help them handle marital discord or enhance the marital relationship. |
bell curve is called | <P> Definition: The term bell curve is used to describe the mathematical concept called normal distribution, sometimes referred to as Gaussian distribution. ‘Bell curve’ refers to the shape that is created when a line is plotted using the data points for an item that meets the criteria of ‘normal distribution’. These are measured in terms of standard deviations. A bell curve graph depends on two factors, the mean and the standard deviation. The mean identifies the position of the center and the standard deviation determines the the height and width of the bell. <P> A good example of a bell curve or normal distribution is the roll of two dice. The distribution is centered around the number 7 and the probability decreases as you move away from the center. Here are the % chance of the various outcomes when you roll two dice. 2 - 2.78 % 8 - 13.89 %. 3 - 5.56 % 9 – 11.11 %. These are measured in terms of standard deviations. A bell curve graph depends on two factors, the mean and the standard deviation. The mean identifies the position of the center and the standard deviation determines the the height and width of the bell. <P> The curve referred to in the term is the bell curve , which is used in statistics to show the distribution of any set of data. It's called a bell curve, because once the data is plotted on a graph, the line created usually forms the shape of a bell or hill. In a normal distribution, most of the data will be near the middle or the mean, with very few figures on the outside of the bell – the extreme outliers. <P> 'The Bell Curve' has murderous implications in its call for cutbacks to welfare and aid to children and single parents, Fairchild said. Herrnstein, a Harvard University psychologist, died shortly before The Bell Curve was published last fall. Co-author Murray, a conservative commentator with the American Enterprise Institute, was unavailable for comment. <P> bell curve definition bell curves also called gaussian distributions and normal distributions are so called because the line resembles a bell the concept was pioneered by german mathematician johann carl friedrich gauss in 1809 the peak of the bell curve refers to the most common result the average child with the highest scorers at the far right of the bell curve and the lowest scorers at the far lef <P> Bell curve may refer to: 1 A Gaussian function, a specific kind of function whose graph is a bell-shaped curve. 2 Normal (Gaussian) distribution, whose density function is a Gaussian function. <P> The book's title comes from the bell-shaped normal distribution of intelligence quotient (IQ) scores in a population. Heckman's reanalysis of the evidence used in The Bell Curve found contradictions: 1 The factors that explain wages receive different weights than the factors that explain test scores. 2 Other factors besides g contribute to social performance, and they can be manipulated. <P> DEFINITION of 'Bell Curve'. The most common type of distribution for a variable. The term bell curve comes from the fact that the graph used to depict a normal distribution consists of a bell-shaped line. The bell curve is also known as a normal distribution. The bell curve is less commonly referred to as a Gaussian distribution, after German mathematician and physicist Karl Gauss, who popularized the model in the scientific community by using it to analyze astronomical data. <P> But we really don’t need to worry too much about the formula. The only two numbers that we care about in it are the mean and standard deviation. The bell curve for a given set of data has center located at the mean. This is where the highest point of the curve or “top of the bell“ is located. A data set‘s standard deviation determines how spread out our bell curve is. The larger the standard deviation, the more spread out the curve. | A Gaussian function, a specific kind of function whose graph is a bell-shaped curve. |
what is geothermal heating | <P> A geothermal heat pump or ground source heat pump (GSHP) is a central heating and/or cooling system that transfers heat to or from the ground. It uses the earth as a heat source (in the winter) or a heat sink (in the summer). This article is about using heat pumps to heat and cool buildings using the earth as a heat reservoir. For generation of electricity from genuine geothermal energy from hot rocks, see geothermal power. For using energy from hot rocks to heat directly, see geothermal heating. <P> Geothermal Cooling. In the cooling mode, the heating process is reversed-creating cool, conditioned air throughout the home. Instead of extracting heat from the ground, heat is extracted from the air in your home and either moved back into the earth loop, or used to preheat the water in your hot water tank. WaterFurnace geothermal systems are able to tap into this free energy with an earth loop. This technology is then used to provide your home or office with central heating and cooling. Geothermal Heating. During the heating cycle, a WaterFurnace geothermal heat pump uses the earth loop to extract heat from the ground. <P> The GSHP is one of the most efficient residential heating and cooling systems available today, with heating efficiencies 50 to 70% higher than other heating systems and cooling efficiencies 20 to 40% higher than available air conditioners. That directly translates into savings for you on your utility bills. <P> Geothermal heating is the direct use of geothermal energy for heating applications. Humans have taken advantage of geothermal heat this way since the Paleolithic era. Approximately seventy countries made direct use of a total of 270 PJ of geothermal heating in 2004. As of 2007, 28 GW of geothermal heating capacity is installed around the world, satisfying 0.07% of global primary energy consumption. Thermal efficiency is high since no energy conversion is needed, but capacity factors tend to be low (around 20%) since the heat is mostly needed in the winter. <P> Geothermal Heating. During the winter, ClimateMaster geothermal heating and cooling systems absorb heat stored in the ground through the water that circulates in its underground loop. This heat is carried to the ground source heat pumps where it’s concentrated and then sent as warm, comfortable air throughout your home. During the summer, ClimateMaster geothermal heating and cooling systems absorb heat from your home and transfers it to the underground loop where it is then absorbed by the cooler earth. The geothermal heat pump uses the cool water returning from the ground to create cool, dehumidified air conditioning for your home. <P> Geothermal heat, sometimes called geothermal energy, is the heat energy contained within the Earth. Geothermal heat can be found from a few feet below the earth's crust all the way to its core, about 4,000 miles down. Geothermal heat is stored in solid and molten rock and in underground water. <P> Geothermal heat pumps (GHPs), sometimes referred to as GeoExchange, earth-coupled, ground-source, or water-source heat pumps, have been in use since the late 1940s. They use the constant temperature of the earth as the exchange medium instead of the outside air temperature. Most closed-loop geothermal heat pumps circulate an antifreeze solution through a closed loop -- usually made of plastic tubing -- that is buried in the ground or submerged in water. A heat exchanger transfers heat between the refrigerant in the heat pump and the antifreeze solution in the closed loop. <P> Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source because the heat is continuously produced inside the earth. The word geothermal comes from the Greek words geo (earth) and therme (heat). Geothermal heating units use the earths natural heat to warm and cool your home for sustainable, environmentally friendly comfort. In the winter: The geothermal heat pump extracts heat from the fluid in the earth connection and typically distributes warmed air through a system of air ducts. Cooler air from the building is returned to the heat pump and is re-warmed as it flows through the underground loop. In the summer: The process is reversed. | Is the direct use of geothermal energy for heating applications. |
who makes cannondale bikes | <P> The Cannondale Bicycle Corporation, is an American division of Canadian conglomerate Dorel Industries that supplies bicycles.

who is the oldest person to run for president | <P> Answer: Ronald Reagan became the oldest president when he was elected in 1980 at the age of 69. <P> Just in time for the most formidable female candidate in American history to run for president, it’s becoming conventional wisdom: The White House is no place for a senior citizen! Sure, we lived through eight years of Ronald Reagan and four years of his successor George H.W. Bush, who was 68 when he left office. <P> The oldest vice president in office was Alben Barkley who was 71 when he took office and 75 when he left in 1953.

what is gluten in? | <P> Gluten sensitivity or intolerance is a condition that causes a person to react after ingesting gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye. Symptoms vary widely and can include gastrointestinal problems, joint pain, fatigue and depression. <P> Gluten is a general name for the proteins found in wheat (durum, emmer, spelt, farina, farro, KAMUT® khorasan wheat and einkorn), rye, barley and triticale. Gluten helps foods maintain their shape, acting as a glue that holds food together. <P> Wheat. A gluten-free diet is a diet that excludes gluten, a protein composite found in wheat and related grains, including barley and rye. Gluten causes health problems in sufferers of celiac disease (CD) and some cases of wheat allergy. For those diagnosed with celiac disease, a strict gluten-free diet constitutes the only effective treatment to date. There is ongoing research and debate on non-celiac gluten sensitivity. <P> Gluten is the composite of two storage proteins, gliadin and a glutenin, and is conjoined with starch in the endosperm of various grass-related grains. Worldwide, gluten is a source of protein, both in foods prepared directly from sources containing it, and as an additive to foods otherwise low in protein. Gluten is extracted from flour by kneading the flour, agglomerating the gluten into an elastic network, a dough, and then washing out the starch. Starch granules disperse in cold/low-temperature water, and the dispersed starch is sedimented and dried. <P> Used as a thickener, gluten can be found in soups and broths, as well as gravies and sauces such as ketchup, salad dressings, or marinades. Since it enhances flavor, it is used in bouillon, spice blends, and other foods such as coffees, dairy products, vinegars, and liquors. Many people associate wheat with the term gluten, however, as it is those proteins that are most directly related to health issues such as celiac disease. Glutelins, in particular, are dangerous for those susceptible to intolerance because of the way that acids in the body break them down. <P> Gluten is found in wheat, rye, barley and any foods made with these grains. Avoiding wheat can be especially hard because this means you should avoid all wheat-based flours and ingredients. These include but are not limited to: 1 White Flour. 2 Whole Wheat Flour. 3 Durum Wheat. 4 Graham Flour. 5 Triticale. 6 Kamut. <P> For food products made from gluten, see Wheat gluten (food) . Sources of gluten: Clockwise from top: high-gluten wheat flour, European spelt, barley, rolled rye flakes. Gluten (from Latin gluten, glue ) is a protein composite found in wheat and related grains, including barley and rye. Gluten gives elasticity to dough, helping it rise and keep its shape and often gives the final product a chewy texture. Gluten is extracted from flour by kneading the flour, agglomerating the gluten into an elastic network, a dough, and then washing out the starch. Starch granules disperse in cold/low-temperature water, and the dispersed starch is sedimented and dried. <P> Definition. A gluten-free diet is a diet that excludes the protein gluten. Gluten is found in grains such as wheat, barley, rye, and a cross between wheat and rye called triticale. A gluten-free diet is primarily used to treat celiac disease. Gluten causes inflammation in the small intestines of people with celiac disease | Wheat flour, European spelt, barley, rolled rye flakes. |

Pursuant to SIPA, the Commission also has delegated authority to conduct inspections of SIPC, review SIPC annual reports, and approve SIPC’s bylaws, rules, and any amendments to the bylaws and rules.. As the SIPC states on its website, Though created by the Securities Investor Protection Act (15 U.S.C. § 78aaa et seq., as amended), SIPC is neither a government agency nor a regulatory authority. It is a nonprofit, membership corporation, funded by its member securities broker-dealers. <P> URL to this page: http://www.investorwords.com/10095/investor_protection.html.

SIPC is an insurance that provides brokerage customers up to $500,000 coverage for cash and securities held by the firm (although coverage of cash is limited to $250,000). RELATED TERMS. A nonprofit corporation created by an act of Congress to protect the clients of brokerage firms that are forced into bankruptcy. Members to the SIPC include all brokers and dealers registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, all members of securities exchanges and most NASD members. Next Up. <P> Overview. Typically, when a brokerage firm fails, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) arranges the transfer of the failed brokerage's accounts to a different securities brokerage firm. If the SIPC is unable to arrange the accounts' transfer, the failed firm is liquidated. <P> Investor protection is usually measured by indicators that quantify explicit protections awarded to shareholders and creditors by corporate, bankruptcy, and reorganisation laws, as well as the quality of law enforcement. Differences in investor protection across countries are substantial and are believed to be responsible for differences in the development of financial markets and ultimately for differences in economic development. | Actions to encourage honest advertising of financial products, and to prevent fraud to make sure that investors do not lose money if their investments default (are not repaid). |
how to pay for extra baggage on delta airlines | <P> The Delta flight is cheaper. But check a bag at a cost of $25 for the first checked bag each way on Delta, and your total fare climbs to $256 -- more than the cost of the Southwest flight, which includes free first and second checked bags. You could pay anywhere from $26 to $100 for a carry-on bag aboard Spirit Airlines if it doesn't fit under the seat in front of you, and the carrier's checked bag fees cover a similar range. Take the Train. While airlines are charging left and right for bags of any shape and size, train travel is a different story. <P> With checked baggage fees ranging anywhere from $15 to $50 and more, air travelers have more to worry about than just the price of airline tickets. If you're experiencing baggage-related sticker shock, don't despair. There are plenty of ways to avoid paying for bags on airlines. With a little savvy travel planning, you can get your bags to your destination without shelling out any extra money. Step 1. Shop around for airlines that don't charge a fee for checked bags. <P> And there's no evidence that airlines will cut baggage fees as their business recovers. Delta on Tuesday just boosted its fees for domestic travel to $23 for the first checked bag and $32 for the second one, up from $15 and $25, respectively. American and United charge $20 for the first bag, $30 for the second (although United offers a $5 per bag discount for online payment). Of the major airlines, only Southwest charges no fee for the first or second item of checked luggage. <P> Delta currently does not charge passengers for checking a first bag on domestic flights. It has said it is studying a decision by several other major carriers to impose that fee. Delta customers checking bags on international flights can check a first and second bag at no charge. Fees are for each extra bag, each way. The fee for checking a third bag on a domestic flight will increase from $80 to $125, while the fee for checking a bag that is between 51 and 70 pounds on a domestic flight will rise from $80 to $90. Fee changes include an increase from $25 to $50 to check a second bag for domestic travel. Fees for specialty items that require special handling, such as surfboards or ski equipment, will increase on domestic and international flights, Delta said. <P> 1 Up to 10 bags may be checked per passenger on flights operated by Delta or Delta Shuttle® and up to four total checked bags on Delta Connection® carrier flights. 2 We may limit the amount of excess baggage when such excess prevents us from transporting up to two bags per passenger. No excess baggage beyond three checked pieces per passenger allowed. Checked baggage weighing 51–70 lbs. is subject to overweight baggage charges. No excess baggage pieces or baggage over 70 lbs. or 62 linear inches will be accepted to/from the following destinations: <P> DELTA. Delta’s checked baggage fees are similar to those of American. Generally speaking, regular travelers must pay $25 for the first bag and $35-40 for the second bag when traveling on Delta-operated flights (excluding long-haul international routes). <P> For example, if an extra piece of baggage exceeds the weight and size limits, it will be subject to three fees: one for the extra bag, one for exceeding the weight limit and one for going over the size restriction. Fees are charged for each additional bag, each way. No excess baggage beyond three checked pieces per passenger allowed. Checked baggage weighing 51–70 lbs. is subject to overweight baggage charges. No excess baggage pieces or baggage over 70 lbs. or 62 linear inches will be accepted to/from the following destinations: <P> Spirit, Frontier and Allegiant now charge for carry-ons, and a single checked bag costs $50 per roundtrip flight on most major airlines. Fortunately, there are ways to avoid the industry's barrage of baggage fees -- tricks that the airlines probably don't want you to know about. You could pay anywhere from $26 to $100 for a carry-on bag aboard Spirit Airlines if it doesn't fit under the seat in front of you, and the carrier's checked bag fees cover a similar range.

what is a gist tumor | <P> Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are relatively rare cancers that originate in the cells of Cajal, which are specialized cells lining the digestive tract responsible for initiating the rhythmic movement that propels food and solid waste through the GI tract. GISTs may be cancerous (malignant) or noncancerous (benign). Malignant GISTs can occur in any part of the gastrointestinal tract—from the esophagus to the rectum—but occur most commonly in the stomach and small intestine. <P> They are defined as tumors whose behavior is driven by mutations in the KIT gene (85%), PDGFRA gene (10%), or BRAF kinase (rare). 95% of GISTs stain positively for KIT (CD117). Most (66%) occur in the stomach and gastric GISTs have a lower malignant potential than tumors found elsewhere in the GI tract. Although the generally accepted definition of pediatric GIST is a tumor that is diagnosed at the age of 18 years or younger, pediatric-type GISTs can be seen in adults, which affects risk assessment, the role of lymph node resection, and choice of therapy. <P> Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) account for less than 1% of gastrointestinal tumors, but they are the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract. GISTs are usually found in the stomach or small intestine but can occur anywhere along the GI tract and rarely have extra-GI involvement. <P> Hyperlinked terms are defined in the glossary section of this website. Click the term to see a pop-up definition. Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a rare cancer affecting the digestive tract or nearby structures within the abdomen. GI stromal tumor, or GIST cancer, is a sarcoma. When a GIST grows in a location where it is not encased in the peritoneal membranes, it is said to be retroperitoneal. For example, GISTs attached to some sections of the duodenum are retroperitoneal. Cancer is most threatening when it metastasizes or spreads to additional locations beyond the primary tumor site. <P> A GIST tumor that originates elsewhere and then spreads to the liver is still biologically a GIST tumor and not a liver tumor; therefore, GIST tumors in the liver are treated very differently than cancer which starts in the liver (liver cancer). Early symptoms of GIST may go unnoticed. And, because GIST is so rare, primary care physicians may not readily recognize its symptoms. Without early detection and treatment, the primary tumor can grow very large or spread (metastasize) to other locations in the body, such as the liver or abdominal cavity. <P> Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract. GISTs arise in the smooth muscle pacemaker interstitial cell of Cajal, or similar cells. Although the generally accepted definition of pediatric GIST is a tumor that is diagnosed at the age of 18 years or younger, pediatric-type GISTs can be seen in adults, which affects risk assessment, the role of lymph node resection, and choice of therapy. <P> GIST is a rare type of sarcoma found in the digestive system, most often in the wall of the stomach. Some GISTS behave in a non cancerous (benign) way. Or they can behave in a cancerous (malignant) way. Tumour means a lump or growth in the body. About 6 out of 10 (60%) of these tumours start in the stomach. But they can begin anywhere in the digestive system, for example in the bowel or food pipe (oesophagus). Very rarely, they develop outside the gastrointestinal tract. <P> The metastatic tumor is the same type of tumor as the primary tumor. For example, if a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) spreads to the liver, the tumor cells in the liver are actually GIST cells. The disease is metastatic GIST, not liver cancer. Resectable gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) can be completely or almost completely removed by surgery. Treatment may include the following: 1 Surgery to remove tumors that are 2 centimeters or larger. 2 Laparoscopic surgery may be done if the tumor is 5 cm or smaller. <P> Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) may be malignant (cancer) or benign (not cancer). They are most common in the stomach and small intestine but may be found anywhere in or near the GI tract. Some scientists believe that GISTs begin in cells called interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), in the wall of the GI tract. Resectable gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) can be completely or almost completely removed by surgery. Treatment may include the following: 1 Surgery to remove tumors that are 2 centimeters or larger. 2 Laparoscopic surgery may be done if the tumor is 5 cm or smaller. <P> A gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a type of tumor that occurs in the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly in the stomach or small intestine. The tumors are thought to grow from specialized cells found in the gastrointestinal tract called interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) or precursors to these cells. Small tumors may cause no signs or symptoms. However, some people with GISTs may experience pain or swelling in the abdomen, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, or weight loss. Sometimes, tumors cause bleeding, which may lead to low red blood cell counts (anemia) and, consequently, weakness and tiredness. | A gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a type of tumor that occurs in the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly in the stomach or small intestine. |
cost of lantus | <P> See Prices. Lantus (insulin glargine) is a long-acting insulin analogue that replaces or supplements the insulin made by the body.

hourly rate for excavation work | <P> The Wage Rate Schedule is also known as prevailing wages for public construction work or “Little Davis-Bacon” wages for the purposes of Chapter 104, Hawaii Revised Statutes. The prevailing wage is the basic hourly rate and the cost to an employer of providing a laborer or mechanic with fringe benefits. A contractor must pay the minimum prevailing wages on State or county public works construction projects in excess of $2,000. <P> Excavation Prices. Excavation can cost a variety of prices. It is very difficult to pin down specific costs for this because it is so area specific. It could cost $85 to $125 per hour for residential excavation work. That is, if you can find someone to do a job by the hour. It may be difficult to find someone willing to work on an hourly rate. <P> Ditto on the sixty an hour for labor, but realistically your hourly rate depends on how bad you want work these days. <P> 1 Although most excavation companies hire out a machine and operator on an hourly basis ($40-$150 or more an hour) for a wide variety or work, they typically bid on residential excavation for the entire project based on the number of yards of dirt to be moved. <P> In its simplest case, if you rented a tractor with operator for $60 per hour-including all fuel and other costs-and you excavated 100 cubic meters per hour, your unit cost for excavation would be $0.60 per cubic meter. The hourly cost of the tractor with operator is called the machine rate. <P> I'm frequently asked for the industry standard rate per hour for various types of work. Well, just like there isn't an industry standard markup, there isn't an industry standard hourly rate. I'll often use $40/hour or $75/hour in our articles, but that's not an industry standard, it's an example. <P> Example: You have an employee you are paying $20 an hour. You charge them out at $20 x 2.6, or $52 an hour. Or, take the same employee at $20 an hour and add the labor burden at 1.35 (or whatever your labor burden is-in some areas, like California, the rate is closer to 1.48). That makes their total cost $27/hour. | $40-$150 or more an hour |
what temperature should i cook salmon at in the oven | <P> For a fillet that is about 1″ thickness, bake the fish at 400° for about 10-12 minutes. When using a foil wrap, the fillet should be baked at 375° for about 15-20 minutes. ● Tail Fillet. The tail tip is the thinnest fillet and often the most tender. When baking a tail wrapped in foil, use 375° as the heat setting and bake the fish for 20-22 minutes. ● Salmon Steak. Steaks of course are much thicker than a fillet. For each 1″ of thickness, figure on 10 minutes of baking time. Steaks should be baked uncovered at exactly 400°. <P> Bake Until Opaque and Flaky. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F for fillets or 350 degrees F for a dressed fish. You can bake the fillets at a lower temperature, if desired, but remember to increase the cooking time. Bake salmon fillets or steaks, uncovered, for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness. <P> The best way to cook the thicker fillets is to use 400° as the set temperature and bake the fish for 18-20 minutes. If a lower heat is desired, season the fillet and wrap it in foil, sealing it tightly and bake at 350° for about 25-30 minutes. When baking a tail wrapped in foil, use 375° as the heat setting and bake the fish for 20-22 minutes. ● Salmon Steak. Steaks of course are much thicker than a fillet. For each 1″ of thickness, figure on 10 minutes of baking time. Steaks should be baked uncovered at exactly 400°. <P> Turn on the oven function of the toaster oven and set the temp to about 375 degrees. Clean the sweet potato and poke some holes in it with a fork so the steam pressure doesn't … cause it to explode. Put it in the toaster oven to cook for at least 20 minutes and then check it by poking it to see how soft or firm it is. <P> Directions. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Season salmon with salt and pepper. Place salmon, skin side down, on a non-stick baking sheet or in a non-stick pan with an oven-proof handle. Bake until salmon is cooked through, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve with the Toasted Almond Parsley Salad and squash, if desired <P> Another thing that determines how long the salmon is baked is oven temperature. Typically, recipes for baking salmon call for an oven temperature of 350 to 450 degrees. The salmon should always be put into a pre-heated oven. Cooking in an oven that hasn't been pre-heated can cause drying of the fish. <P> RE: What temperature should i cook salmon in foil in a fan oven and for how long? I'm cooking salmon in a fan oven wrapped in foil with some seasoning and olive oil. I was think the temp should be around 180-200 for 15-20 minutes??? I' <P> Confidence votes 105. If you are asking the oven temp i would say at 350 F is fine. If you have a meat thermometer, i cook salmon to around 160 F so it is still very moist and not overcooked. Wow....this isn't chicken. Simply use a sheet of foil and create a tent over the salmon. I cook fillets at 275F in the oven or on the grill skin side down until internal temp is 135-140. Just when the fat starts oozing out of the top of <P> When cooking the best investment you can ever make is a $7 thermometer or go all out an buy a $25 digital probe one. 350 is a normal temperature to cook in a oven. Allow the fish to cook and reach an internal temp of 125-130, allow the fish to rest for a few minutes, this will allow th fish to finish cooking. Good luck and remember do cook buy thickness.

put yourself on child support in texas | <P> In the state of Texas, child support and visitation are two different animals. You need to petition the court for visitation. Once it's set, she will be required by law to follow the order. You can also contact the Office of the Attorney General for the state of Texas regarding support, if you wish. Just so you know, even if you're not paying child support you have a right to see your daughter. If your ex doesn't request child support, that is her business -- she is legally not allowed to prevent you from seeing your child. You *can* go to the court and request to start paying child support on your own if you want. Or, here is another option <P> 1 You don't have a court order to establish child support payments, and you want one. 2 You have a registry-only (RO) case with the Attorney General, but you want other services, such as enforcement or modification, that would change your case into a full-service (FS) case. Beginning September 1, 2011, custodial parents will pay a $3 monthly fee in cases that receive registry-only payment processing and record-keeping services through the State Disbursement Unit (SDU) for each month in which a child support payment of more than $3 is received. <P> No. If you are under 18 and not graduated from high school, you should live with either of your parents.

It also provides the non-custodial parent with a record of payments made. If support payments are not deducted from the non-custodial parent's paycheck, they should be paid as directed in the court order. It is very important to keep records of the payments that are made. The Fatherhood Program can help non-custodial parents who have a case with DCSS and are unable to pay child support. <P> Confidence votes 305. No. If you are under 18 and not graduated from high school, you should live with either of your parents. If you attempt to file child support for yourself, the court can make you live with the parent that you request child support from, if you are not already living with your custodial parent. In most states, the parent has until the child reaches the age of majority to file, but the child can file for one more years after. In a few states, the limit is 23 years of … age. Some states do not allow for retroactive orders, while a few allows 18 years retroactive. <P> 1 Non-Texas residents can apply for services with the Child Support Division of the Office of the Attorney General of Texas, provided there is a Texas child support order or one of the parties or child(ren) resides in Texas.

The Child Support Division of the Office of the Attorney General helps get child support and medical support for dependent children. You may want this assistance for one of the following reasons: 1 You don't have a court order to establish child support payments, and you want one. Beginning September 1, 2011, custodial parents will pay a $3 monthly fee in cases that receive registry-only payment processing and record-keeping services through the State Disbursement Unit (SDU) for each month in which a child support payment of more than $3 is received. <P> My child lives with her mother in Kansas. I am trying to put myself on court ordered child support because it cannot be put in my divorce decree from the state of TX. I need guidance in this matter. <P> Share this conversation. Expert: Dave Kennett replied 6 years ago. Dear suk rider-You cannot simply put yourself on child support. Assuming you are a residential parent of a child and have legal custody then you would have to make a motion to the court for a determination of child support from the other parent. If you are asking how to start paying support then you can file a motion with the court to determine custody, support and any other issue involving the child. I really cannot comment further on this limited fact situation.

how long do you cook a pork loin roast | <P> Swirl to coat the bottom. Roast the pork for 10 minutes: Set the pork in the pan. (It's fine if your pork tenderloin is a little long for the pan; just bend it to fit as we did here.) Return the pan to the oven. Roast for 10 minutes. Flip the pork, reduce the heat, and roast another 10 to 15 minutes: Flip the pork to the other side. <P> Cooking a Loin Roast: There are many different ways to cook this roast. (Google lists over 1 million options!) According to the Joy of Cooking, cooking the roast for 10 minutes at 450 F. degrees and then reducing the temperature to 250 F. will ensure a tender, moist, flavorful roast. Cooking to this temp, then allowing the roast to rest for 15 minutes after removing from the oven, will take the roast to approximately 150 degrees, at which point you can serve it and it will be the juiciest, most tender pork you can get. Don’t mind it if it’s a bit pink in the middle – it’s ok. <P> 1 Cook the pork roast in the oven on 325 degrees Fahrenheit (163 degrees Celsius). 2 Cooking time will be 35 minutes per lb. (0.45kg) of meat. 3 A pork roast with the bone in will cook faster than a boneless roast. 4 It will result in a crispier surface texture with less moisture. <P> 1 Place pork loin into oven, turning and basting with pan liquids. 2 Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. 3 An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). 4 Remove roast to a platter. 1 Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. 2 An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). 3 Remove roast to a platter. 4 Heat the wine in the pan and stir to loosen browned bits of food on the bottom. 5 Serve with pan juices. <P> 1 Remove pork from oven, lightly cover with foil, and let rest 5-10 minutes to redistribute internal juices. 2 Roast should be done, very slightly pink in the center, and very moist. 3 After resting 10 minutes, the roast should reach a safe 145-150 degrees. 1 Preheat oven to 500 degrees. 2 Remove tenderloin from refrigerator. 3 Season meat as desired. 4 Place seasoned meat in an uncovered roasting pan on a shelf in the bottom 1/3 of your oven. 5 Bake EXACTLY 5 1/2 minutes PER POUND. 6 Adjust +/- according to your oven's accuracy and heat retention. 7 NOTE:. <P> At what temperature and for how long per pound do you cook a pork roast? My co-worker wants her daughter(13) to put the roast in the oven for her before she gets home, but she did't know at what temp and for how long to tell her to leave it in. She said it is a small 2 lb pork roast. 3. Heat the oven to 500 degrees for a raw roast, 375 for a pre-browned one. 4. Place the roasting pan in the oven; cook for 10 minutes, then lower the heat to 300 degrees. 5. Cook for about 45 minutes, then start checking the roast's temperature with an instant-read thermometer. Remove the roast when the internal temperature, measured as deep into the roast as you can get, reads 165 degrees <P> Step 4 Place the roast in a pan Place the roast in a roasting pan, fat side facing up. Step 5 Transfer the roast to an oven Place the roast in an oven that has been preheated to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. After 10 minutes, reduce the temperature to 325 degrees for the remainder of the cooking time. Step 6 Insert a meat thermometer Insert a meat thermometer in the roast after about an hour, and check the roast every 5 minutes after that. When the thermometer reaches 145 degrees, remove the roast from the oven and cover it with foil. Quick Tip: Let the meat rest for 20 to 30 minutes <P> WIth a roast, you generally want to cook to an internal temperature, not a time. But, when you lay it out butterflied, it’s thinner and more of the meat is exposed to heat, so if you were to cook it at 350 degrees at a 1/2 hour/lb. a 6 lb roast would end up ruinously overdone. Cooking to this temp, then allowing the roast to rest for 15 minutes after removing from the oven, will take the roast to approximately 150 degrees, at which point you can serve it and it will be the juiciest, most tender pork you can get. Don’t mind it if it’s a bit pink in the middle – it’s ok. | 1 hour |

how long to cook whole chicken legs in oven | <P> Spread around the bottom of the roasting pan and place the chicken on top. Roast the chicken for 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh.

Slice the chicken onto a platter and serve it with the vegetables. <P> Bake for 20 to 30 minutes: The chicken is done when opaque all the way through and the meat registers at least 165°F in the thickest part. Broil for extra-crispy skin: If you'd like the skin to be a bit more crispy and golden, turn on the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes. Cooking time is generally 20 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken registers 165°F in the thickest part. Amazingly, all the chicken pieces wind up cooking at about the same rate — dark meat pieces cook a bit slower than white meat, but the thickness of the breast meat means everything finishes around the same time. <P> Optional: Prior to baking, place a few garlic cloves (outer skins removed) under the skin of the chicken. Alternatively, place a 1/2 tablespoon of butter and some freshly chopped herbs under the skin. Make sure the chicken skin is repositioned snugly over the garlic cloves or butter and herbs.

Hi all, i feel all your pain my mam was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on the 5th may this year we were horrified to discover mam also had it in the liver and the lungs. No signs or symptoms just routine blood test. We called hospice who said we were over medicating him. He was like in a kind of coma but was also screaming with excrutiating pain. Hospice called an ambulance which took him to the hospital. The doctor at the hospital said he was not over medicated but that he was in end stage cancer and would not live over 24 hours. <P> Unfortunately, many patients are not diagnosed until the last stages of pancreatic cancer. In stage IV of the disease, pain maintenance is the main concern. slide 1 of 4. In the last stages of pancreatic cancer there is nothing else that can be done except to keep the patient comfortable. The harsh reality of this disease is not what the patient, family or friends want to hear, however these unfortunately are the facts. <P> Stage is a term used in cancer treatment to describe the extent of the cancer 's spread. The stages of pancreatic cancer are used to guide treatment and to classify patients for clinical trials. The stages of pancreatic cancer are: 1 Stage 0: No spread. 2 Pancreatic cancer is limited to a single layer of cells in the pancreas. 3 The pancreatic cancer is not visible on imaging tests or even to the naked eye. 4 Stage I: Local growth <P> Read More. Pancreatic cancer is one of the most silent types of cancer that is very difficult to detect, thus often leads to death because it is either undiagnosed or it has been discovered during the later stages of the disease. My father is in the last stages of liver cancer. The Dr's say it is colon cancer (he beat it 7 years ago) that has moved to his liver. He is at home and is sleeping more and more. <P> 1 N stages-There are 2 main N stages. 2 This shows if pancreatic cancer has spread to the lymph nodes (N1) or not (N0). 3 M stages-There are 2 M stages. 4 This shows if the cancer has spread to distant body parts, like the liver or lungs (M1), or not (M0). This system describes the size of a primary tumour (T), whether there are lymph nodes with cancer cells in them (N) and if the cancer has spread to a different part of the body (M). 1 T stages-There are 5 stages of tumour size in pancreatic cancer. 2 Tis (carcinoma in situ) is the smallest and T4 is the largest. <P> Number stages of cancer of the pancreas. Once the TNM categories have been decided, this information can be grouped together to give the stage a number from 1 to 4.

The problem with this type of cancer is that it is usually detected when the cancer has already grown outside the pancreas. My father is in the last stages of liver cancer.

what is creatinine kinase | <P> Creatine kinase (CK) or Creatine phosphokinase (CPK) is an enzyme produced by the muscles. There are three types of CK produced by major muscle groups: the brain, the heart, and the skeletal muscle tissue. When muscle cells are injured or diseased, enzymes leak out of the cells and enter the bloodstream. <P> An elevated level of creatine kinase is seen in heart attacks, when the heart muscle is damaged, or in conditions that produce damage to the skeletal muscles or brain. There are three different forms of creatine kinase that can be measured: CK-MM (located in the skeletal muscles and heart), CK-MB (mainly located in the heart), and CK-BB (located in the brain). An elevated level of creatine kinase, specifically CK-MB, occurs within hours of a heart attack as the heart muscle cells die. <P> Creatine kinase (CK) — also known as creatine phosphokinase (CPK) or phospho-creatine kinase — is an enzyme (EC 2.7.3.2) expressed by various tissues and cell types. CK catalyses the conversion of creatine and utilizes adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to create phosphocreatine (PCr) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Thus creatine kinase is an important enzyme in such tissues. Clinically, creatine kinase is assayed in blood tests as a marker of damage of CK-rich tissue such as in myocardial infarction (heart attack), rhabdomyolysis (severe muscle breakdown), muscular dystrophy, the autoimmune myositides and in acute renal failure. <P> This test measures the amount of an enzyme called creatine kinase (CK) in your blood. CK is a type of protein. The muscle cells in your body need CK to function. Levels of CK can rise after a heart attack, skeletal muscle injury, strenuous exercise, or drinking too much alcohol, and from taking certain medicines or supplements. If this test shows that your CK levels are high, you may have muscle or heart damage <P> Creatine kinase or creatine phosphokinase is an enzyme chiefly found in the brain, skeletal muscles, and heart. There are three different forms of creatine kinase that can be measured: CK-MM (located in the skeletal muscles and heart), CK-MB (mainly located in the heart), and CK-BB (located in the brain). An elevated level of creatine kinase, specifically CK-MB, occurs within hours of a heart attack as the heart muscle cells die. <P> Creatine kinase is often incorrectly referred to as creatinine kinase.

Creatine kinase is also known as creatine phosphokinase or phosphocreatine kinase. An enzyme involved in the synthesis and use of energy-providing molecules, it's predominantly found in the cells of the heart, skeletal muscles and brain. <P> Creatine kinase, more commonly known as CK, is an enzyme that is present in all muscle tissue of the body including the heart and the brain. The normal creatine kinase levels in a man are between 38 and 174 units/L; while a woman's creatine kinase levels range from between 96 to 140 units/L. Creatine kinase is an enzyme present in all muscles in the human body including the heart and the brain. Normal creatine kinase levels between men and women differ primarily because of the fact that there is greater muscle mass in the male body than there is in the female one. <P> The creatine phosphokinase test measures the amount of creatine phosphokinase (CPK) present in the blood. The test is also known as creatine kinase, CPK test, and CK test. Creatine phosphokinase is a specific enzyme found primarily in the heart, skeletal muscle, and brain. The creatine phosphokinase test is performed to assess damage to tissue in the brain, muscle tissue, or heart. | Creatine kinase (CK) or Creatine phosphokinase (CPK) is an enzyme produced by the muscles. |
cost to relocate a house | <P> The house cost only $1, and in total, including a one-mile move and reconstruction costs, the couple spent $100,000 for a five-bedroom house worth twice that. <P> The cost of moving a house starts at about $12 to $16 per square foot but can quickly rise if the home is heavier, bigger or has farther to go [sources: McLinden, Burstein ]. One house builder estimates that moving a large home more than just a few miles can run about $150,000 to $200,000 [source: Fetters ]. In addition to the costs of the actual moving, these expenses should also be considered: 1 Cost of the new home, if you're not moving one that you already own. 2 Buying the land where the home will be placed. 3 Building a new foundation for the home. 4 Permitting and inspection costs <P> A total cost of between $8,000 and $40,000 just to actually move the house from the original site to the new site can be considered to be on the cheaper end of the spectrum with costs for moving bigger houses reaching up to hundreds of thousands. Before making the decision to move a house, people should contact a professional house moving company to get an estimate on how much it will cost to move the house. The entire process can become pretty costly when all other expenses are factored in, but it could still be less than purchasing a new one. <P> Randy and Julie Olson purchased this house for $1 and then had it delivered to their property in Brook Park, Minn. Moving the house cost about $22,000. Steve Moon got this house for free and then had it delivered to his property in Cannon Beach, Ore., for $25.000. “People are looking for a way to save on demolition and dump fees on one end and save on building costs on the other end.”. Depending on a home’s size, its condition and how far it has to be moved, the cost can range from $15,000 to $60,000. <P> The short answer, yes. The Brick Victorian shown in the photo's was purchased for a dollar. Moved onto the site 2 miles from original site..utility line cost, land purchase, nine foot basement and renovation along with move cost is estimated to be $ 125,000.00. This home was recently appraised for $ 325,000.00 <P> Mobile homes are built on a chassis designed to be moved. The cost to relocate a unit is determined by the size, the distance to be traveled, and whether it is transport only or a full-service move which includes disconnect and reconnect of utilities, porches or other attachments. 1 For example, Riley's Transport in California will move a small single-wide mobile home within the state up to 60 miles starting about $1,000, depending on size and location. <P> The cost of moving the house will depend mainly on the time it takes, which depends in turn on the route to be travelled, the size of the house and the degree of difficulty. It can range from a few thousand dollars to move a single-piece house, with the price increasing for the number of pieces, location and difficulty. <P> Most house moving companies want to physically inspect a house and the desired placement location before estimating the cost for them to move it. The cost for moving any size house can range between $12 and $16 per square foot, so obviously a smaller house with not a long distance to travel will be cheaper to move. The roads traveled during the move can add to the cost of the move. Before making the decision to move a house, people should contact a professional house moving company to get an estimate on how much it will cost to move the house. The entire process can become pretty costly when all other expenses are factored in, but it could still be less than purchasing a new one. <P> Some houses are simply easier to move than others, explains Natalie Hammer, who runs Atlas Enterprises in Forest City, Iowa, with her husband, Chris Holland. Their typical price range for relocating a house is $8,000 to $30,000, but the cost will vary regionally. “It depends on the size of the house, how hard it is to get it up and onto the wheels, and how far you’re going,” she says. “It’s not a per-mile thing; it’s how difficult it is, and how heavy it is. Monroe Becker, who works for the structural moving company Unruh House Moving in Moundridge, Kan., says typical costs for the jobs he works on are $10,000 to $14,000, but would be a lot higher if the houses included brick. | Average $12 to $16 per square foot. |
the difference between talent and spiritual gift | <P> To summarize the differences between spiritual gifts and talents: 1) A talent is the result of genetics and/or training, while a spiritual gift is the result of the power of the Holy Spirit. 2) A talent can be possessed by anyone, Christian or non-Christian, while spiritual gifts are only possessed by Christians. 3) While both talents and spiritual gifts should be used for God’s glory and to minister to others, spiritual gifts are focused on these tasks, while talents can be used entirely for non-spiritual purposes. <P> It is also possible that the biblical lists are not exhaustive, that there are additional spiritual gifts beyond the ones the Bible mentions. Answer: There are similarities and differences between talents and spiritual gifts. Both are gifts from God. Both grow in effectiveness with use. Both are intended to be used on behalf of others, not for selfish purposes. First Corinthians 12:7 states that spiritual gifts are given to benefit others and not ourselves. <P> The ability to prophecy, or heal by laying on of hands, these would be spiritual gifts. Both talents & spiritual gifts are given by God. Yet a spiritual gift is spiritual. People are given many gifts such as ability to teach or lead or understanding. & the fruit of the Spirit such as the ability to love & be kind & patient are also gifts. Being good at science would be a talent, which is a gift from God... or being skilled in craftmanship would also be a talent which is given by God... or being good at learning multiple languages would be a talent given to someone by God. <P> 3) While both talents and spiritual gifts should be used for God's glory and to minister to others, spiritual gifts are focused on these tasks, while talents can be used entirely for non-spiritual purposes. Both are gifts from God. Both grow in effectiveness with use. Sometimes we can get confused about our talent and the purpose it serves. Our purpose is to serve God since we are His creation. It is important to know the difference between a talent and a spiritual gift, and knowing if we are using our talents or spiritual gifts to glorify God. <P> Differences between talents and spiritual gifts. 1) A talent is the result of a person's genetics and/or training. A spiritual gift is a manifestation of the power of the Holy Spirit. 2) Talents are given by God to anyone, Christian or non-Christian. Spiritual gifts are only possessed given to Christians. 3) Both talents and spiritual gifts are given to be used for God's glory and to serve others. First, let's look at the similarities between a talent and a spiritual gift. Both are from God. (God makes his son to shine on both the good and the bad). Both are perfected with use. Both are given for the benefit of others. <P> Answer: There are similarities and differences between talents and spiritual gifts. Both are gifts from God. Both grow in effectiveness with use. Both are intended to be used on behalf of others, not for selfish purposes. First Corinthians 12:7 states that spiritual gifts are given to benefit others and not ourselves. 3) While both talents and spiritual gifts should be used for God’s glory and to minister to others, spiritual gifts are focused on these tasks, while talents can be used entirely for non-spiritual purposes. <P> SPIRITUAL GIFTS ARE NOT NATURAL TALENTS. There has been some discussion on the difference between a natural talent and a spiritual gift. For some of the gifts the distinction is not clear. We need to remember, all the abilities we have do come from God in some way or another <P> There appear to be two primary differences between talents and spiritual gifts. First, a talent can be available to either believers or unbelievers. Every person is created with certain abilities that can be of benefit to other people. Second, spiritual gifts are more specific than natural talents in the Bible. First Corinthians 12—14, Romans 12, Ephesians 4:11-16, and 1 Peter 4:10-11 all speak of spiritual abilities in a special way separate from natural talents. | 1) A talent is the result of genetics and/or training, while a spiritual gift is the result of the power of the Holy Spirit. 2) A talent can be possessed by anyone, Christian or non-Christian, while spiritual gifts are only possessed by Christians. |
how much money does substitute teacher make nc | <P> Although the state requires full, appropriate licensure for substitute teachers, exceptions are made for short call substitutes (less than 14 days in one assignment), who must get a credential from the state Board of Teaching. Substitute pay is $70-$130 per day. <P> Salary Expectation. Currently, the average salary for a Substitute Teacher in North Carolina is approximately $28,000 a year (according to bls.gov) which is about 4% lower then the national average. <P> The best paid teachers in North Carolina are high school teachers in the North Central part of the state who earn an annual salary of $48,080. By comparison the highest paid high school teachers in the nation are based in the Nassau-Suffolk area of New York where average salaries amount to $85,780. <P> A substitute teacher can expect to earn a … flat rate of $100 per day with no benefits. Many districts offer incentives for subbing often (eg. 85% of the month or 15 days a month) or for taking on long-term (11+ day) assignments. So, a career substitute should expect to make $125 - $150 per day. <P> The Bureau of Labor Statistics regularly gathers data related to the annual wages of teachers in North Carolina and other states. According to the BLS, as of 2010, the average kindergarten teacher in North Carolina had an annual salary of $41,760. Elementary teachers earn slightly more with an annual take home pay of $43,200, while middle school teachers earn an average salary of $42,670. <P> Doctorate degree holders can earn higher pay starting at $36,000 and earning as much as $60,340 with 34 years experience. In this category, teachers with 10 years of experience earn $44,010, and those with 20 years experience earn $49,680. The increase amounts to a $1,270 annual bonus, as of 2012. North Carolina increases the annual wage for teachers who earn the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards certification. <P> There are as many substitute teacher licenses in force now as ever (9,249 for a 33,000 teacher workforce). The number of substitutes who are new graduates is constant, but teachers in the reserve pool are not substituting. Substitute pay is between $55 and $95 per day. <P> An entry-level North Carolina teacher, who has a bachelor's degree, a teacher certification and up to three years teaching experience, starts her career at $30,430 per year as of 2012, reports North Carolina Public Schools. | $70-$130 per day |
what causes pain in organs | <P> Chronic internal organ pain: Introduction. Chronic internal organ pain: continuous deep seated pain. See detailed information below for a list of 28 causes of Chronic internal organ pain, Symptom Checker, including diseases and drug side effect causes. Review causes of more specific types of Chronic internal organ pain: 1 Mild Chronic internal organ pain (11 causes). 2 Severe Chronic internal organ pain (18 causes). 3 Recurring Chronic internal organ pain (14 causes). 4 Intermittent Chronic internal organ pain (10 causes). <P> Visceral pain is pain that results from the activation of nociceptors of the thoracic, pelvic, or abdominal viscera (organs). Visceral structures are highly sensitive to distension (stretch), ischemia and inflammation, but relatively insensitive to other stimuli that normally evoke pain such as cutting or burning. As visceral pain changes in nature as it progresses. Pain from a specific organ can be experienced, or “referred” to different sites of the body. There is no pathology or no cause for pain at these referred somatic sites however the pain will be experienced at this location, often with significant intensity. <P> Left side abdominal pain can be caused both by organs and structures on the left section of the abdomen as well as those located away from the abdomen. Females are more likely to suffer from pain on left side of abdomen simply because they have more organs in this area. 5. Kidney stones in the left side of the abdomen can cause the strongest pain ever felt. It can also cause vomiting as well as a spreading of the pain from the loin to the groin. When there is a buildup of minerals a stone can form down the kidney or in the ureter. <P> Most cancer pain is caused by the tumour pressing on bones, nerves or other organs in your body. Sometimes pain is related to your cancer treatment. For example, some chemotherapy drugs can cause numbness and tingling in your hands and feet or a burning sensation at the place where they are injected. Soft tissue pain. Soft tissue pain means pain from a body organ or muscle. For example, you may have pain in your back caused by tissue damage to the kidney. You can't always pinpoint this pain, but it is usually described as sharp, cramping, aching, or throbbing. <P> Pain arising from other organs may be felt in the back. This is called referred pain. Many intra-abdominal disorders-such as appendicitis, aneurysms, kidney diseases, bladder infections, pelvic infections and ovarian disorders, amongst others-can cause pain referred to the back. 1 Other skeletal causes of lower back pain include osteomyelitis, sacroiliitis, and osteoporosis vertebral fractures. 2 This pain is often worse at night and when sitting or standing for a long time. 3 Tumours, possibly cancerous, can be a source of skeletal pain in the back. <P> Organs of the abdomen include the stomach, small intestine, colon, liver, gallbladder, spleen, and pancreas. Abdominal pain can range in intensity from a mild stomach ache to severe acute pain. The pain is often nonspecific and can be caused by a variety of conditions. <P> Often, left lower quadrant pain is related to conditions of the digestive tract; however, it can also be related to conditions of the body wall, skin, blood vessels, urinary tract, or reproductive organs. Left lower quadrant pain may be caused by conditions of the digestive tract including: Bacterial, parasitic or viral infection of the gastrointestinal tract. Celiac disease (severe sensitivity to gluten from wheat and other grains that causes intestinal damage). Chronic constipation. | Appendicitis, aneurysms, kidney diseases, bladder infections, pelvic infections and ovarian disorders, amongst |
how far will a firefighter pump | <P> Elevation Effects. For every 1,000 feet of change in elevation, there is a loss of 1 foot in suction or lift and a 0.5 pounds per square inch decrease in atmospheric pressure. Example 2 - An engine can lift water 22.5 feet at sea level. The same engine is driven to a fire at an elevation of 2,000 feet above <P> Step 6. Set up the problem and solve. EP = 100 psi - 100 psi + 30 psi. The engine pressure needs to be 30 pounds per square inch for a desired nozzle pressure of 100 pounds per square inch in this hose lay. <P> Typical is the Aussie Fire Chief, a pump that delivers up to 80 metres head, and a maximum flow of 500 litres a minute. They are used in a wide range of applications that include on farm duties, like high pressure water transfer, agricultural spray, machinery wash down, and of course bush fire fighting. <P> Friction loss of a 100-foot, 1-inch hose, cotton-synthetic, at 15 gallons per minute, is typically 3 to 6 pounds per square inch. Friction loss for a 1.5-inch hose at 15 gallons per minute is typically 1 pound per square inch for 100 feet. <P> You control the hoses using the truck's pump panel on top of the fire engine. The pump panel is a series of levers and switches that controls how much water is flowing and which lines are being discharged. When arriving at a fire scene, the driver will jump out and climb to the top of the truck to begin pump operation. <P> Hoses, also called lines, will put out different amounts of water depending on the hose length, diameter and the amount of pressure in the pump. When responding to a house fire, the firefighters will immediately pull off the crosslay hoses. These lines are located directly below the pump panel. They lay out in the open and are light, so they are easy to get off the fire engine for attacking a fire. Crosslays are 200 feet (61 m) long, have a diameter of 1.5 inches and can gush water at 95 gallons (360 L) per minute. <P> Friction Due to Hose Length. For hose lengths longer than 100 feet, friction loss in the hose should be considered. Friction loss of a 100-foot, 1-inch hose, all synthetic, with volume rate of 15 gallons per minute, is typically 4 to 9 pounds per square inch. | 100 feet |
what is biogenesis | <P> 2. biogenesis-the production of living organisms from other living organisms. biogeny. multiplication, propagation, generation-the act of producing offspring or multiplying by such production. <P> Biogenesis. Definition. noun. (1) The process in which life forms arise from similar life forms. (2) It asserts that living things can only be produced by another living thing, and not by a non-living thing. Supplement. <P> For other uses, see Biogenesis (disambiguation) . Biogenesis is the production of new living organisms or organelles. The law of biogenesis, attributed to Louis Pasteur, is the observation that living things come only from other living things, by reproduction (e.g. a spider lays eggs, which develop into spiders). <P> The theory of biogenesis is simply the idea that life is born from other life, as opposed to the theory of abiogensis, which states that life came about from non-life through … natural processes. <P> Medical Definition of BIOGENESIS. 1. : the development of life from preexisting life—compare abiogenesis. 2. : a supposed tendency for stages in the evolutionary history of a race to briefly recur during the development and differentiation of an individual of that race. 3. <P> biogenesis, biogeny. 1. the process by which living organisms develop from other living organisms. 2. the belief that living organisms can only develop from other living organisms. — biogenic, biogenetic, adj. — biogenetically, biogenically, adv | Production of new living organisms or organelles. |
what ended the triassic period | <P> Triassic period. The Triassic began after the worst mass extinction ever, at the end of the Permian. Life on Earth took a while to recover and diversify. The Triassic was characterised by heat, vast deserts and warm seas. Towards the end of the Triassic, 220 million years ago, there was another extinction, which wiped out many of the non-dinosaurs including the dicynodonts such as Placerias and primitive archosaurs such as Postosuchus.

It was after this that dinosaurs really started to radiate and diversify. <P> The Triassic /traɪˈaesɪk/ traɪˈæsɪk is a geologic period and system that extends from roughly 250 to 200 (mya.252 ± 17.0 06 to.201 ± 3.0 2 million years), ago an interval of.51 04 million. years The Triassic period ended with a mass extinction, which was particularly severe in the oceans; the conodonts disappeared, as did all the marine reptiles except ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs. Invertebrates like brachiopods, gastropods, and molluscs were severely affected. <P> The Triassic began in the wake of the Permian–Triassic extinction event, which left the Earth's biosphere impoverished; it would take well into the middle of the period for life to recover its former diversity. Therapsids and archosaurs were the chief terrestrial vertebrates during this time. The Triassic period ended with a mass extinction, which was particularly severe in the oceans; the conodonts disappeared, as did all the marine reptiles except ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs. Invertebrates like brachiopods, gastropods, and molluscs were severely affected. <P> The Triassic /traɪˈaesɪk/ traɪˈæsɪk is a geologic period and system that extends from roughly 250 to 200 (mya.252 ± 17.0 06 to.201 ± 3.0 2 million years), ago an interval of.51 04 million.

The start of the Triassic period (and the Mesozoic era) was a desolate time in Earth's history. Something—a bout of violent volcanic eruptions, climate change, or perhaps a fatal run-in with a comet or asteroid—had triggered the extinction of more than 90 percent of Earth's species. <P> The Mesozoic Era is divided into three periods: the Triassic Period, the Jurassic Period, , and the Cretaceous Period. The Triassic began around 248 million years ago, after the mass extinction that brought an end to the Permian Period. It lasted about 42 million years. Reptiles Inherit The Earth. The Triassic Period is the first period of the Mesozoic Era. The great extinction at the end of the Permian period had brought the end to 90% of the living species on Earth.

causes of urine sediment | <P> Normally, a few RBCs are present in urine sediment. Inflammation, injury, or disease in the kidneys or elsewhere in the urinary tract, for example, in the bladder or urethra, can cause RBCs to leak out of the blood vessels into the urine. <P> Urine Sediment. In case of a number of different urinary tract, or metabolic problems or conditions, different particles that don't typically appear in the urine, may appear in the urine. This may occur for a number of reasons. <P> 1 Bladder stones: Sediment in urine can be caused due to the presence of bladder stones. 2 As men get older there may overgrowth of the prostate which leads to compression of the urethra, affecting the flow of urine. 3 This causes increased amounts of urine in the bladder, leading to formation <P> Cloudy urine may be a sign of a urinary tract infection, sediment from a distended bladder, blood in urine, an enterovesicular fistula, gonorrhea, Schistosomiasis, or vaginal discharge. <P> UTI or Urinary Tract Infection may cause people to have more sediment in urine than in healthy individuals. UTI associated urine sediments may include particles of leukocyte, proteins, bacteria and WBC (White Blood Cell). <P> 1 Diabetes: Sediment in urine can be a result of diabetes which is due to increased levels of blood sugar. 2 Such increased levels of blood sugar cause the glucose to pass through to the urine causing sediment in urine. 3 The breakdown of fats leads to the formation of ketones. <P> 1 Sediment in urine can also be caused due to the passage of kidney stones into the bladder via the ureters. 2 Inflammation of the bladder and the pelvic region due to radiation therapy, the use of bladder catheters and certain contraceptive devices can also result in the formation of bladder stones. <P> When bacteria get into your bladder or kidneys and cause you to have symptoms, you have a urinary tract infection (UTI). It is important to know the difference between an infection and bacteriuria (having bacteria in the urine but no symptoms). <P> Another possible cause of sediments to appear in urine are possible kidney problems such as kidney stones. In fact a symptom of having cloudy urine is often suggestive of a possible kidney stone that may soon need to be removed. <P> Treatment. 1 Sediments in urine are analyzed for the presence of various underlying conditions and for the abnormalities. 2 Antibiotics are used to treat urinary tract infections. 3 Surgery or other methods may be employed to remove the bladder stones. | Due to the passage of kidney stones into the bladder via the ureters or inflammation of the bladder and the pelvic region due to radiation therapy, |
how much does commercial framing cost | <P> 1 In general, you can expect to pay approximately $15 to $25 per square foot for a basic rigid frame commercial steel building (all inclusive). 2 More customized/refined commercial metal steel buildings might cost closer to $20 to $40 per square foot. 1 $10,000 to $12,000 for a 20 x 20 rigid frame commercial steel building and $6,000 to $8,000 for a 20 x 20 arch frame commercial metal building. <P> The median for this type of construction is between $160 and $170 per square foot. Not surprisingly, New York tops the charts for most expensive city to build in for all of these building types. It is here: http://evstudio.com/construction-cost-per-square-foot-for-office-buildings/. From that chart, you will see that LA is nearing $200 per square foot for up to four stories of office. That boils down to a $40M project in round approximate numbers. <P> 1 Framing labor can cost $2-$12 or a more a square foot, or $3,500-$36,000 for a 1,600- to 3,000-square-foot home, depending on location and what's included. 2 An average house framing labor rate nationwide is about $6-$8 a square foot, or $10,000-$25,000 for 1,600-3,000 square feet. 1 Framing materials typically cost more than labor. 2 It can cost $3-$12 or more a square foot based on the current price of lumber (or steel) and the size and design of the structure. <P> 1 Building a garage typically costs about $35-$45 a square foot, or $8,400-$10,800 for a standard single-car garage and $13,300-$17,100 for a two-car garage. 2 A custom outdoor greenhouse with a solid foundation, heating and electricity starts at $10,000-$20,000 for a small structure, but can cost $25,000-$50,000 or more. <P> An average commercial steel building costs between $16 and $20 per square foot, including building package (I-Beams, purlins, girts etc.) , delivery, foundation and the cost of construction. Please note, because there are so many variables involved (interior & exterior finish being the main contributors) with commercial steel buildings, price figures for the average code per square foot can vary dramatically. Local building regulations can influence the cost of a steel commercial building. <P> When you’re considering the cost of steel framing, keep in mind that the initial cost of steel vs. wood is higher (add 3% to the total cost of the house). Steel framing materials costs will be lower than wood, but labor costs are usually higher. The average cost of metal framing a house is about $9.50-$11 a square foot. The materials will usually be about 30% of this, about $3 a square foot. The typical two-story house averages 2500 square feet, meaning steel framing of the house would cost approximately $24,000-$25,000. <P> The median cost for this commercial building type hovers around $100 per square foot. Because of the new trends in fast food being more boutique and less assembly line, the cost for a typical fast food restaurant is on the rise. It is here: http://evstudio.com/construction-cost-per-square-foot-for-office-buildings/. From that chart, you will see that LA is nearing $200 per square foot for up to four stories of office. That boils down to a $40M project in round approximate numbers. <P> Since many retail & commercial buildings require additional finishing like insulation or facade façade, customization the cost may rise to$ 30 or$ 40 per square (FOOT).

Fahrenheit i hope this will help. you <P> Place it in the centre of the oven and set the oven to 175 degrees Celsius. Check the temperature shown on the thermometer after 20 minutes and if it's not within five degrees of 175, you'll need to get the oven professionally calibrated. A medium oven means a temperature of around 180 degrees Celsius. This is a good temperature to choose if you are not sure of the temperature you need. This temperature will work well for everything from pies to cakes and even pasta bakes. A high oven means a temperature of around 230 degrees Celsius. Temperatures this high are mainly used for fast roasting lean cuts of meat and fish. With a little bit of practice, and sticking to these temperature guidelines, you can make the most of your produce and use your oven to its full potential <P> The various standard phrases to describe oven temperatures include words such as cool to hot or very slow to fast. For example, a cool oven has temperature set to 90°C (200°F), and a slow oven has a temperature range from 150–160°C (300–325°F). A moderate oven has a range of 180–190°C (350–375°F), and a hot oven has temperature set to 200–230°C (400–450°F). A fast oven has a range of 230–260°C (450–500°F) for the typical temperature. <P> For this reason, they reach around the same maximum temperatures. The maximum temperature of a home gas oven is 537.7 degrees Celsius (which the heat reached by self-cleaning ovens during the self-cleaning process). For ordinary cooking, the maximum temperature used is 287.7 degrees Celsius. The maximum heat of an electric oven depends on the brand and the model. The meat top of the oven (the top of the stove) can reach temperatures of around 185.5 degrees Celsius.

what is a bicuspid | <P> Bicuspid Aortic Valve. Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) affects approximately one to two percent of people. It is the most common congenital heart disorder, impacting both the aortic valve (which controls the flow of blood into the aorta) and the thoracic aorta (the major vessel that sends blood throughout the body). About nine percent of people with BAV have relatives with the disease, so family screening is important <P> In the simplest terms, a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) can be a serious heart valve disorder in which the valve only has two leaflets, or flaps, that control bloodflow through the heart. Like the tricuspid valve and the pulmonary valves, normal aortic valves have three tissue leaflets. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. A bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is most commonly a congenital condition of the aortic valve where two of the aortic valvular leaflets fuse during development resulting in a valve that is bicuspid instead of the normal tricuspid configuration. Normally the only cardiac valve that is bicuspid is the mitral valve (bicuspid valve) which is situated between the left atrium and left ventricle. Cardiac valves play a crucial role in ensuring the unidirectional flow of blood from the atrium to the ventricles, or the ventricle to the aorta or pulmonary trunk <P> What is Bicuspid Aortic Valve?Healthy aortic valves have three cusps (or leaflets) that regulate blood flow from the heart’s left ventricle to the aorta. It is the most common congenital heart disorder, impacting both the aortic valve (which controls the flow of blood into the aorta) and the thoracic aorta (the major vessel that sends blood throughout the body). <P> Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is a defect that occurs during the formation of the aortic valve in the uterus. The aortic valve separates the left ventricle from the aorta and normally has three cusps, which open and close as the ventricle contracts and relaxes. In bicuspid aortic valve disease, the valve has two cusps. Bicuspid aortic valve disease is an abnormal formation of the aortic valve (the valve connecting the aorta to the heart). Approximately 2% of the population has a bicuspid valve. Often patients will have an awareness of its presence, as they were told they have a murmur during a routine physical examination <P> People with bicuspid aortic valve disease also may have abnormal coronary arteries, aortic aneurysm or an abnormal thoracic aorta (the portion of the aorta that passes through the upper chest) and unstable (labile) high blood pressure. In bicuspid aortic valve disease (BAVD), the valve has only two leaflets. With this deformity, the valve doesn’t function perfectly, but it may function adequately for years without causing symptoms or obvious signs of a problem. <P> Bicuspid valve: One of the four valves of the heart, this valve is situated between the left atrium and the left ventricle. <P> The aortic valve is a one-way valve between the heart and the aorta, the main artery from the heart that distributes oxygen-rich blood to the body.

how much are property taxes in tennessee | <P> What Tennessee calls an inheritance tax is really an estate tax—that is, a tax imposed only when the total value of an estate exceeds a certain value. Under current Tennessee law, the tax kicks in if your estate (all the property you own at your death) has a total value of more than $5 million (in 2015). For deaths in 2015, estates with a value of up to $5 million are exempt from Tennessee estate tax. But legislation passed in 2012 has been gradually raising the exempt amount, and unless the law changes, the estate tax will be elimintated in 2016. (Tenn. HB 3760, SB 3762.). <P> Tennessee has one of the lowest median property tax rates in the United States, with only nine states collecting a lower median property tax than Tennessee. Tennessee's median income is $52,201 per year, so the median yearly property tax paid by Tennessee residents amounts to approximately % of their yearly income. Tennessee is ranked 38th of the 50 states for property taxes as a percentage of median incom <P> How the Tax Will Be Phased Out. For deaths in 2015, estates with a value of up to $5 million are exempt from Tennessee estate tax. But legislation passed in 2012 has been gradually raising the exempt amount, and unless the law changes, the estate tax will be elimintated in 2016. (Tenn. HB 3760, SB 3762.). <P> Williamson County collects the highest property tax in Tennessee, levying an average of $1,879.00 (0.56% of median home value) yearly in property taxes, while Decatur County has the lowest property tax in the state, collecting an average tax of $333.00 (0.5% of median home value) per year. Tennessee's median income is $52,201 per year, so the median yearly property tax paid by Tennessee residents amounts to approximately % of their yearly income. <P> Inheritance and estate taxes. Tennessee imposes an inheritance tax ranging from 5.5 percent to 9.5 percent on decedents' estates that exceed maximum single exemption limits. For 2014, the exemption amount increases to $2 million. It is $5 million in 2015. In 2016 and future tax years, there is no inheritance tax. Because of the phaseout of the federal estate tax credit, Tennessee's estate tax is not imposed on estates of persons who died in 2005 or later. <P> 0.68% of home value. Tax amount varies by county. The median property tax in Tennessee is $933.00 per year for a home worth the median value of $137,300.00. Counties in Tennessee collect an average of 0.68% of a property's assesed fair market value as property tax per year. Tennessee's median income is $52,201 per year, so the median yearly property tax paid by Tennessee residents amounts to approximately % of their yearly income. <P> To calculate the tax on your property, assume you have a house with an APPRAISED VALUE of $100,000. The ASSESSED VALUE is $25,000 (25% of $100,000), and the TAX RATE has been set by the Metro Council at $4.516 (Urban Services District) or $3.924 (General Services District) per hundred of assessed value. How to Figure Your Property Tax Bill. Property taxes in Tennessee are calculated utilizing the following four components: 1 APPRAISED VALUE. 2 ASSESSMENT RATIO. 3 ASSESSED VALUE. <P> The Appraised Value for each taxable property in a county is determined by the county property assessor. 2. ASSESSMENT RATIO. The Assessment Ratio for the different classes of property is established by state law (residential and farm @ 25% of appraised value, commercial/industrial @ 40% of appraised value). 3. These tax rates vary depending on the level of services provided and the total value of the county s tax base. To calculate the tax on your property, multiply the ASSESSED VALUE by the TAX RATE. Assume you have a house with an APPRAISED VALUE of $100,000. The ASSESSED VALUE is $25,000 (25% of $100,000), and the TAX RATE has been set by your county commission at $3.20 per hundred of assessed value.

what are ungulates animals | <P> Ungulate. Ungulates are the hoofed mammals, belonging to the phylum Chordata. The word ungulate comes from Latin ungula, meaning hoof.. Ungulates are a large group of dissimilar vertebrate animals, grouped together because their outermost toe joints are encased in hooves. There are four ungulate orders. Those ungulates having an odd number of toes belong to the order Perissodactyl <P> The word 'ungulate' comes from the Latin 'ungula' , meaning hoof. It has long been used as a term to describe any hooved herbivorous mammal, but the ungulates have not been thought to constitute a single group of closely related animals until recently. The 'ungulates' were considered to comprise the Artiodactyla (even-toed ungulates like pigs or cattle), the Perissodactyla (odd-toed ungulates like horses or tapirs) and various fossil groups of primitive ungulates. <P> Many hoofed mammals live in grasslands and savannahs. Ungulates have evolved features that are adaptive for life on open grasslands, in particular long legs to increase running speed. To lengthen the legs, ungulates evolved digitigrade locomotion: that is, they walk on their toes. The hoof of a horse or cow is anatomically an enlarged toe. Artiodactyls such as deer, sheep, and goats walk on two toes; perissodactyls walk either on three toes (rhinos, tapirs, some extinct horses) or on one toe (living horses) <P> Even-toed ungulate. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The even-toed ungulates (order Artiodactyla) are ungulates (hoofed animals) whose weight is borne approximately equally by the third and fourth toes, rather than mostly or entirely by the third as in odd-toed ungulates (perissodactyls), such as horses. Cladogram showing relations within Artiodactyla. As with many extant mammal groups, even-toed ungulates first appeared during the early Eocene (about 55 million years ago). In form, they were rather like today's chevrotains: small, short-legged creatures that ate leaves and the soft parts of plants. <P> un·gu·late (un'gyoo-lit) [L., unguis, a hoof; -atus suffix meaning provided with]. NOUN: a mammal having hooves. Literally, ungulate refers to any animal with hooves-a hoof being an enlarged toenail (see below). However, in practice, the use of the name ungulate has been inconsistent. In ungulates, the tough unguis encircles the tip of the digit as a cylinder, enclosing the subunguis within in. Since the unguis is harder than the subunguis, it does not wear down as quickly, resulting in a firm (sometimes sharp) leading edge to the hoof. <P> Ungulates (pronounced /ˈʌŋɡjʉleɪts/) are any members of a diverse clade of primarily large mammals that includes odd-toed ungulates such as horses and rhinoceroses, and even-toed ungulates such as cattle, pigs, giraffes, camels, deer, and hippopotami. <P> The ancestors of the even-toed ungulates were omnivores that preferred plant material; now, even-toed ungulates are generally herbivorous, although species in the suborder Suina are, like their primitive ancestors, omnivores.

why are some hard boiled eggs difficult to peel | <P> Place eggs in a pot of cold water. To avoid cracking the eggs place them in the pot with a spoon. Turn on the heat and wait until the water has come to a boil. Cover the pot, then turn off the flame. Let the pot sit with the cover on for the desired amount of time (see below). <P> Older eggs are easier to peel than fresh eggs. If you are planning to make hard boiled eggs for Easter and want to make sure that the eggs are easy to peel, buy your eggs at least a week ahead of time (two weeks even better, they'll keep). If you need easy-to-peel eggs and you have fresh eggs, you might want to try steaming the eggs for 15 minutes. Pour an inch of water into a pot and insert a steamer basket.Bring to a boil. Place the eggs in the steamer basket, cover and steam for 15 minutes (more or less, check!). I find it easiest to peel the eggs under a bit of running water. The best way to store hard boiled eggs is in a covered container in the refrigerator. Eggs can release odors in the fridge which is why it helps to keep them covered. They should be eaten within 5 days. <P> Follow us on Pinterest. If you often cook eggs, you may have noticed that extremely fresh ones are difficult to peel when hard-boiled. The shell doesn't peel back cleanly and often leaves a pock-marked texture on the surface of the egg. But as eggs grow older, their shells peel more easily. <P> Pin it. There are a million and one tips out there for how to make a hard-boiled egg easier to peel, but far fewer on why eggs are so hard to peel in the first place. One of the most frequently quoted peeling tips is that old eggs are easier to peel than fresh ones. It turns out this particular tip has some truth! Harold McGee in On Food and Cooking explains that the white albumen in a fresh eggs has a low relatively low (ie, acidic) pH level. <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. Eggs will be hard to peel if you use eggs that are too fresh. Look at the Use by or Sell by date on the carton and wait until a few days before that date to cook the eggs. You should also not boil the eggs. Heat the water until nearly boiling and then cook the eggs on low for 20-22 minutes (for large eggs). Peeling will be much easier. Peeling an Egg As soon as you get your eggs boiled (don't boil in an enamel pot or you can't get a even peel), run cold water over the eggs until the water becomes cool. Tap the top and bottom of the egg on a hard surface to break the thin skin between the shell and egg. <P> As a rule, the fresher the egg, the more difficult it is to peel cleanly. The albumen (white) of a just-laid egg contains a store of dissolved carbon dioxide, a weak acid. (CO 2 is what makes very fresh raw egg whites appear cloudy.) Over time, the gas exits the egg through thousands of tiny pores in the shell. <P> Best Answer: I got this system on how to cook and peel hard boiled eggs from KittenCal on Recipezaar.com. It works great with really fresh eggs and the shell comes off cleanly and easily. HARD BOILED EGGS 6 Eggs (or you may increase) 2 tsp White vinegar 1 pinch Salt Water to cover 3 cups Ice cubes (or more if needed) 1. Place eggs in saucepan (one which has a tight fitting lid) 2. Cover the eggs with lukewarm water 3. <P> Since it may be difficult to peel extremely fresh eggs, boiled eggs are best with eggs that have already spent a few days in the refrigerator. See below for a comparison of boiled egg to 'sous vide egg'. <P> If done correctly the boiled egg is one of the simplest ways to cook an egg. Since it may be difficult to peel extremely fresh eggs, boiled eggs are best with eggs that have already spent a few days in the refrigerator. See below for a comparison of boiled egg to 'sous vide egg'. To avoid cracking the eggs place them in the pot with a spoon. Turn on the heat and wait until the water has come to a boil. Cover the pot, then turn off the flame. Let the pot sit with the cover on for the desired amount of time (see below). <P> To easily peel a hard boiled egg, add 2-3 teaspoons of baking soda to the water used to boil the eggs. Use enough water to cover the eggs, boil for exactly 12 minutes, and t … hen pour off the boiled water and replace with cold tap water. add as many ice cubes as you can to cool off the eggs. Peeling will be much easier. Peeling an Egg As soon as you get your eggs boiled (don't boil in an enamel pot or you can't get a even peel), run cold water over the eggs until the water becomes cool. Tap the top and bottom of the egg on a hard surface to break the thin skin between the shell and egg. | Because it has already spent a few days in the refrigerator. |
what is thermite | <P> Thermite is a pyrotechnic composition of metal powder fuel and metal oxide. When ignited by heat, thermite undergoes an exothermic reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction. Most varieties are not explosive but can create brief bursts of high temperature in a small area. The reaction is used for thermite welding, often used to join rail tracks. Thermites have also been used in metal refining, demolition of munitions, and in incendiary weapons. Some thermite-like mixtures are used as pyrotechnic initiators in fireworks. <P> Method 2 of 2: Make the Thermite. 1. Obtain finely powdered iron oxide (rust), aluminum powder, and a thin strip of magnesium. The iron oxide and aluminum will react to form thermite, while the magnesium will serve as the ignition material. 1 You can find aluminum powder in a paint store, an Etch-a-Sketch, or you can buy it on the internet <P> A mixture of iron oxide Fe2O3 (rust) and aluminum powder. When it is ignited the aluminum powder reacts with the O3 part of the rust in a highly exothermic reaction, the resulting product is molten iron. Thermite is commonly used in welding, because the molten iron has the ability to seep into cracks in metal. It cal also be used to melt through things as shown in an episode of Brainiac and the movie The Sixth Day. I have made thermite a few times, but never in large enough batches to burn through anything significant. <P> Although most of the thermite powders produced today are mainly a mix of iron oxide and aluminum, the aluminothermic reaction may allow the use multiple types of metal oxides. A aluminothermic reaction basically takes place when a mixture of aluminum powder and metal oxide is being ignited. During this process, the oxidizing metal, respectively aluminum reacts with the metal oxide in order to form aluminum oxide. Thermite is basically a powder mix between aluminium and a metal oxide that, when lit, produces an aluminothermic reaction. It was first fabricated during 1893 by the German chemist Hans Goldschimdt while trying to create a method that would produce extremely pure metal, without using the carbon smelting process <P> Definition of THERMITE. : a mixture of aluminum powder and a metal oxide (as iron oxide) that when ignited evolves a great deal of heat and is used in welding and in incendiary bombs. ADVERTISEMENT. therm- + 1-ite. First Known Use: 1900 <P> A thermite reaction is basically iron oxide (rust) reacting with aluminum to produce molten iron. The reaction is initiated by the heat from burning magnesium ribbon which is placed in the iron oxide/aluminum mixture, this is the fuse! This works because the thermite mixture is aluminum powder and iron oxide (rust) powder. When the mixture is heated, it starts reacting: the aluminum is more reactive than the iron, so it pinches the oxygen from the iron to make aluminum oxide and iron. A balanced equation for the reaction is:-. Fe 2 O 3 2 O 3 + 2Fe. <P> Thermite is a pyrotechnic composition usually consisting of metal powder and a metal oxide. It is not usually explosive, but it does create extremely high temperatures in a very small area for a short period of time. <P> Thermite. [from Thermit, a trade name], mixture of powdered or granular aluminum metal and powdered iron oxide. When ignited it gives off large amounts of heat. In wartime it has been used in incendiary bombs.

what was torricelli's atmospheric theory | <P> Evangelista Torricelli 's parents were Gaspare Torricelli and Caterina Angetti. It was a fairly poor family with Gaspare being a textile worker. Evangelista was the eldest of his parents three children, having two younger brothers at least one of whom went on to work with cloth. <P> Evangelista Torricelli (āvaenjālē´āvänjālē stae-stä´tōr) , rēchĕl–lē, 1608 47 italian physicist. And mathematician He'was galileo (s–secretary) 1641 42 and his successor as professor of philosophy and Mathematics. At florence he invented (the), barometer 1643 Called the, torricelli tube and, a microscope and he improved. the telescope <P> An encyclopedia entry for Italian mathematician and physicist Evangelista Torricelli is presented. He was the one who discovered that the atmosphere exerts pressure. He demonstrated that this pressure affected the level of mercury in a tube, thereby inventing the mercury barometer. 1 1643. <P> Evangelista Torricelli was born October 15th, 1608 in what is now known as Faenza, Italy. Little information is known about his early years of life. In 1624 he entered the Jesuit College of Faenza, then moved on to the Collegio Romano in Rome. <P> By Mary Bellis. Barometer-Pronunciation: [b u rom´ u t u r] - a barometer is an instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure. Two common types are the aneroid barometer and the mercurial barometer (invented first). Evangelista Torricelli invented the first barometer, known as the Torricelli's tube. <P> The Barometer. Evangelista Torricelli became the first scientist to create a sustained vacuum and to discover the principle of a barometer. Torricelli realized that the variation of the height of the mercury from day to day was caused by changes in the atmospheric pressure. Torricelli built the first mercury barometer around 1644. <P> Early Life: Evangelista Torricelli, an Italian man, and a physicist by occupation, initially studied at Jesuit schools in Faenza, near Ravenna. He was so good as a Physicist and a Mathematician that he was sent to Rome for further studies under Benedetto Castelli’s direction. | Torricelli realized that the variation of the height of the mercury from day to day was caused by changes in the atmospheric pressure. |
food that are complex carbohydrates | <P> Starchy Vegetables. Sweet Potato. Wheat. Wheat Berries. Whole-Grain (breads, cereals and flours). Remember, fruits and vegetables are simple carbohydrates that contain fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals, so they are more complex in nature. These are nutrient-dense foods that should be eaten daily. <P> Since complex carbohydrates come from plant-based foods, we know that those foods also contain a plethora of beneficial nutrients in addition to their carbs, including vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. The complex carbs are broken down into simple sugars. Simple carbohydrates include monosaccharides (one-unit sugars) and disaccharides (two-unit sugars). Monosaccharides include glucose, fructose and galactose. These can be absorbed directly and don't require further breakdown from enzymes, unlike disaccharides and polysaccharides. <P> Carbohydrates or ‘carbs’ are an energy source in food that comes from starch, sugar and cellulose. Carbohydrates provide vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fiber in the diet. The current recommendations suggest 45 to 65 percent of daily calories come from these types of foods. Remember, fruits and vegetables are simple carbohydrates that contain fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals, so they are more complex in nature. These are nutrient-dense foods that should be eaten daily. <P> Complex carbohydrates are created when three or more simple sugar molecules link together in a chain. Complex carbohydrates are found mostly in plant foods. They form the starches that plants use to store energy, as well as the cellulose that forms the structure of plants. Fruits and vegetables contain vitamins, minerals, high levels of starches and other complex carbs, and may also contain fat and protein. Some fruits and vegetables high in complex carbs include: 1 Potatoes. 2 Beans. 3 Carrots. 4 Okra. 5 Zucchini. 6 Cucumbers. 7 Radishes. 8 Asparagus. <P> Whole-grain products such as brown rice, whole-grain pasta, beans, whole wheat bread, whole oats, buckwheat, millet, whole rye, whole-grain barley and whole-grain corn are considered good carbohydrates. These foods are rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients that are beneficial to your health. Carbohydrates provide your body with glucose it needs to function properly. Two types of carbohydrates exist: complex carbohydrates and simple carbohydrates. Complex carbohydrates take time to break down into glucose. Foods rich in complex carbohydrates and fiber are called good carbohydrates. Simple carbohydrates include sugars found in foods such as fruits and milk products and sugars added during food processing. Foods rich in white flour and added sugars are called bad carbohydrates <P> 1 Sugar is the simplest form of carbohydrates. 2 Sugar occurs naturally in some foods, including fruits, vegetables, milk and milk products. 3 Sugars include fruit sugar (fructose), table sugar (sucrose) and milk sugar (lactose). 4 Starch. 5 Starch is a complex carbohydrate, meaning it is made of many sugar units bonded together. 1 Starch. 2 Starch is a complex carbohydrate, meaning it is made of many sugar units bonded together. 3 Starch occurs naturally in vegetables, grains, and cooked dry beans and peas. 4 Fiber. 5 Fiber also is a complex carbohydrate. 6 Fiber occurs naturally in fruits, vegetables, whole <P> Oatmeal, brown rice, quinoa, potatoes, beans, peas and lentils are examples of complex carbs. Simple carbs are often softer in texture – white bread, white rice and baked goods. Soda, candy and other sweeteners like table sugar and honey are also simple carbs. Remember, fruits and vegetables are simple carbohydrates that contain fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals, so they are more complex in nature. These are nutrient-dense foods that should be eaten daily. <P> Complex carbohydrate foods are basically those in wholegrain form such as wholegrain breads, oats, muesli and brown rice. Complex carbs are broken down into glucose more slowly than simple carbohydrates and thus provide a gradual steady stream of energy throughout the day. | Oatmeal, brown rice, quinoa, potatoes, beans, peas and lentils. |
how can i help baby walk | <P> You can encourage your baby to walk by standing or kneeling in front of him and holding out your hands. Or you might hold both his hands and walk him toward you. He'll probably also enjoy a toddle truck or push toy that he can hold on to as he walks. <P> From 4 -15 months your baby goes from learning how to sit up to walking around the house on his own. During this exciting time you can help Baby gain his confidence to take those first steps through simple games and words of praise. Stage 6: Standing Without Help. Balance is a key part of walking. If Baby can stand and balance for a few seconds she will soon feel like she can try to take a step. Age: 9-12 months. What you can do: Turn balancing into a game. Sit with Baby on the floor and help her stand up. <P> How to Encourage Babies to Walk. U sually, a baby can start to walk on his own between the ages of 12 to 15 months. However, some babies start to walk as early as 9 months, whereas others start to walk after the age of 1 and a half years. Learn to Assist Your Baby’s Walking. It is important that you know how to assist your child when he starts to walk. Initially, you must support your child above the ribs. When he has become stable, you should support the baby around the hips to ensure his core muscles remain strong and stable. <P> Most babies take their first steps sometime between 9 and 12 months and are walking well by the time they're 14 or 15 months old. Don't worry if your child takes a little longer, though. Some perfectly normal children don't walk until they're 16 or 17 months old. Show him how to bend his knees so he can sit down without toppling over, and let him give it a try himself. You can encourage your baby to walk by standing or kneeling in front of him and holding out your hands. Or you might hold both his hands and let him walk toward you. He'll probably also enjoy a toddle truck or push toy that he can hold on to as he walks <P> At 13 months, your baby may be walking on his own, but probably a bit unsteadily. If your baby still hasn't stopped cruising, it just means walking on his own is going to take a little longer. Some children don't walk until they are 17 months or 18 months old. As your baby learns to stand, he may need some help working out how to get back down again. As your baby learns to walk it's a good idea to keep his feet as free as possible. Let him toddle barefoot if you can. Going barefoot helps him to improve his balance and coordination. If cramped by tight shoes or socks, your baby's feet can't straighten out and grow properly. <P> As he starts to pull himself up and gain balance holding your hands, help him take a few steps. This will help him with the next phase of walking and help him gain confidence to take those first steps. Age: 8-9 months. What you can do: Practice, practice, practice -- this is key for Baby when he is at this stage. Stage 6: Standing Without Help. Balance is a key part of walking. If Baby can stand and balance for a few seconds she will soon feel like she can try to take a step. Age: 9-12 months. What you can do: Turn balancing into a game. Sit with Baby on the floor and help her stand up. <P> Learning to walk is one of the most important achievements in your baby's life, as it's a big step towards independence. Over the course of your baby's first year, he will gradually gain coordination and muscle strength, and learn to sit, roll over, and crawl. Your baby will then probably move on to pulling himself up. As your baby learns to walk it's a good idea to keep his feet as free as possible. Let him toddle barefoot if you can. Going barefoot helps him to improve his balance and coordination. If cramped by tight shoes or socks, your baby's feet can't straighten out and grow properly. <P> Going barefoot helps improve balance and coordination. What to do if your baby doesn’t walk. Don't fret if your child is simply taking her time. But if your child doesn't stand with support at 12 months, can't walk at 18 months, or isn't able to walk steadily at the age of 2 years, bring it up with her doctor. Show him how to bend his knees so he can sit down without toppling over, and let him give it a try himself.

what is lumbar arthritis | <P> Osteoarthritis Treatments. Facet Joint Disorders. Spinal arthritis is one of the common causes of back pain. Spinal arthritis is the mechanical breakdown of the cartilage between the aligning facet joints in the back portion (posterior) of the spine that quite often leads to mechanically induced pain. 1 Lower back (lumbar spine) osteoarthritis, sometimes called lumbosacral arthritis, which produces stiffness and pain in the lower spine and sacroiliac joint (between the spine and pelvis). <P> Osteoarthritis of the spine is a breakdown of the cartilage of the joints and discs in the neck and lower back. Sometimes, osteoarthritis produces spurs that put pressure on the nerves leaving the spinal column. This can cause weakness and pain in the arms or legs. Osteoarthritis of the spine may cause stiffness or pain in the neck or back. It may also cause weakness or numbness in the legs or arms if it is severe enough to affect spinal nerves or the spinal cord itself. Usually, the back discomfort is relieved when the person is lying down. <P> Osteoarthritis is also known as degenerative joint disease. It is a condition in which the protective cartilage that cushions the tops of bones degenerates, or wears down. This causes swelling and pain. It may also cause the development of osteophytes, or bone spurs. Osteoarthritis of the spine may cause stiffness or pain in the neck or back. It may also cause weakness or numbness in the legs or arms if it is severe enough to affect spinal nerves or the spinal cord itself. Usually, the back discomfort is relieved when the person is lying down. <P> Lumbar Spine Arthritis. Arthritis in the Lower Spine. 1 Low back arthritis is the most common source of low back pain and symptoms. 2 This condition is related to degenerative changes of the facet joints and degenerative disc disease. Osteoarthritis of the Spine. 1 Degenerative arthritis of the spine is a common condition related to “wear and tear” or degeneration of the bones and soft tissue of the spine. 2 Arthritis most often occurs due to natural ageing process but may occur with rheumatoid arthritis and sometimes due to hereditary factors. <P> Osteoarthritis of the Spine and Disc Degeneration. Medical practitioners often refer to osteoarthritis in the spine as spinal arthritis, degenerative joint disease, or arthritis of the facet joints. Spinal arthritis is relatively common and is most likely to occur in people over age fifty <P> There are many types of arthritis, but the most common, most painful and most frequently limiting type of arthritis is osteoarthritis. “Osteo-” means “bone,” and this type of arthritis mostly affects the weight-bearing joints, such as the hips and knees, as well as joints in the hands, feet and spine. There are several types of joints in the body. The most common is the hinge joint. <P> Yes. The phrase degenerative changes in the spine refers to osteoarthritis of the spine. Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis. Doctors may also refer to it as degenerative arthritis or degenerative joint disease. Osteoarthritis in the spine most commonly occurs in the neck and lower back. With age, the soft disks that act as cushions between the spine's vertebrae dry out and shrink. <P> In some cases arthritis, a degenerative (gets worse over time) condition can cause spinal stenosis. Two forms of arthritis may affect the spine: osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis: 1 The most common form of arthritis. Arthritis. In some cases arthritis, a degenerative (gets worse over time) condition can cause spinal stenosis. Two forms of arthritis may affect the spine: osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis: 1 The most common form of arthritis. 2 Most often occurs in middle-aged and older people. <P> There are over 100 different forms of arthritis. The most common form of arthritis is osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease), a result of trauma to the joint, infection of the joint, or age.

what is a flapper in a toilet | <P> A flapper is a rubber mechanism in your toilet tank that is the moving part of the flush valve, sealing water into the tank and allowing water to exit the tank when you flush. Flappers deteriorate over time as a result of in-tank cleaning products and chemicals used by utilities. <P> Toilet Flappers. Fluidmaster is the #1 selling brand of toilet repair products in the world.... The toilet flapper is a rubber mechanism in your toilet that opens to let water out of the toilet tank when you flush and closes to allow it to refill. <P> Greg shows how to remove the flapper valve in the bottom of the toilet tank and what to look for when purchasing a replacement. You would want to replace your flapper if it is leaking water from the tank, into the bowl. You would have determined this by use of a dye test (see this video on finding toilet leaks). A leaking flapper can waste hundreds of gallons of water over time, which is not good for your budget or water conservation. <P> A toilet flapper is basically a rubber valve that covers the pipe running between the toilet tank and the bowl of the toilet. When a toilet is flushed, the water drains into either a city sewage system or septic system.

what is a asteroid made of | <P> Most asteroids circle the Sun in a broad band between Mars and Jupiter called the asteroid belt, which is about 215 million miles (345 million km) wide. The asteroids are pieces left over from when the major planets formed from small chunks of rock. <P> 1 Bright S (silicaceous) asteroids and are in the inner belt, closer to Mars. 2 They tend to be metallic iron with some silicates of iron and magnesium. 3 Bright M (metallic) asteroids. 4 They sit in the middle of the asteroid belt and are mostly made up of metallic iron. <P> The theory is that when a smaller asteroid or comet slams into a bigger asteroid, the small asteroid or comet could release a layer of ice in the bigger asteroid. The force of the impact briefly turned the ice into water, which flowed across the surface, creating the gullies. Metals that are abundant in asteroids. <P> The asteroid belt probably contains millions of asteroids. Astronomers think that the asteroid belt is made up of material that was never able to form into a planet, or of the remains of a planet which broke apart a very long time ago. The asteroids in the asteroid belt come in a variety of sizes. <P> The asteroid belt is a region of space between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter where most of the asteroids in our Solar System are found orbiting the Sun. <P> Most asteroids that we know about fall into the first category, and are made of Silicates. A small percentage are Iron-Nickel. The rest form the third type. I believe that they are made of rocky bits left over from the formation of the inner planets. The run-of-the-mill asteroid is just one kilometer long. <P> An asteroid’s composition is mainly determined by how close it is to the Sun. The asteroids that are nearest the Sun are mostly made of carbon, with smaller amounts of nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen, while the ones further away are made up of silicate rock. Silicates are very common on Earth and in the Solar System. <P> Asteroids are made of rock and metal and broken away pieces of planets. They are grouped into three categories: Stony, Iron-Nickel, and a mixture of the two. | Made of carbon, with smaller amounts of nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen, while the ones further away are made up of silicate rock. |

what are lymphocyte count | <P> There are three main types of lymphocytes: B cells, T cells, and natural killer (NK) cells. Lymphocytes compose approximately 15 to 40% of the total white blood cells in the body. In a healthy adult a lymphocyte count of 1000 - 4800 cells per microliter of blood is considered the normal range. When the lymphocyte count is lowered, the body's ability to resist and fight off infections is severely compromised and its susceptibility to cancer is increased. In addition, low lymphocyte counts may also lead to damage to various organs. The following section will detail the potential causes of low lymphocytes. <P> 1 A low lymphocytes count is also as dangerous a condition as a high lymphocytes count. 2 When the percentage of lymphocytes that form the total number of white blood cells in the human body is lower than fifteen percent, then it signifies low levels of lymphocytes in the body. Normal lymphocyte count in blood. 1 The normal levels of lymphocytes present in the blood usually range between 1200 and 3200 lymphocytes per milliliter of blood. 2 However, it may be noted that different laboratories may follow different standards of valuing the normal levels of lymphocytes. <P> Definition. Lymphocytosis (lim-foe-sie-TOE-sis), or a high lymphocyte count, is an increase in white blood cells called lymphocytes (LIM-foe-sites). Lymphocytes are an important part of the immune system. They help fight off diseases, so it's normal to see a temporary rise in the number of lymphocytes after an infection. A count significantly higher than 3,000 lymphocytes in a microliter of blood is generally considered to be lymphocytosis in adults. <P> For adults, a lymphocyte count of less than 1000 cells per microliter of blood is considered a low number of lymphocytes in his blood. Lymphocytopenia or lymphopenia are alternate terms for low lymphocyte counts. When the lymphocyte count is lowered, the body's ability to resist and fight off infections is severely compromised and its susceptibility to cancer is increased. In addition, low lymphocyte counts may also lead to damage to various organs. The following section will detail the potential causes of low lymphocytes. <P> 81 Followers. A.

how good is ducted heat pumps | <P> Air-Source Heat Pumps. An air-source heat pump can provide efficient heating and cooling for your home. When properly installed, an air-source heat pump can deliver one-and-a-half to three times more heat energy to a home than the electrical energy it consumes. This is possible because a heat pump moves heat rather than converting it from a fuel like combustion heating systems do. <P> Heat Pumps for year round comfort in Seattle. There’s nothing like a heat pump for air conditioning in Seattle summers and for heating in the Northwest winter. There are 2 popular kinds of heat pumps used in Seattle, the air source or ducted heat pump and the ductless heat pump. We’ll discuss both. A heat pump is energy efficient. Heat pump manufacturers say a heat pump can save you 30% on overall cost of heating and cooling your home. Most Seattle utilities agree and have provided heat pump rebates. In fact PSE customers who replace their electric furnace with a forced air heat pump can get up to $1000 <P> Types of heat pumps. An air source heat pump can provide whole-house heating and cooling when it is fully-ducted throughout the home. These systems are ideal for new home construction, or added to existing forced-air systems. Adding a heat pump to a forced-air furnace will optimize the efficiency of the heating system. A ductless heat pump (or mini-split system) makes a good retrofit to homes with “non-ducted” heating systems. Since they have no ducts, they avoid the energy losses associated with ductwork of central forced air systems. <P> The ducted system can be installed in a new home or tailored to suit an existing one, and once installed, only the controller, the return air and discharge grilles are visible inside your home. Daikin Ducted Heat Pumps consist of an indoor and outdoor unit and flexible ducting. Flexibility. Flexibility. Daikin Ducted Air Conditioners provide you with the flexibility to heat or cool every room in your home. Your home can be 'zoned' to maximise energy efficiency and you can customise your air conditioner's operation to suit your lifestyle-how you 'zone' your home is completely up to you. <P> 1 B. Ducted heat pumps have an outdoor unit connected to a building’s ductwork. 2 Like ductless heat pumps, ducted heat pumps can both heat and cool buildings. 3 Ground-source heat pumps or “geothermal” heat pumps draw heat from the soil or groundwater and transfer it to a ducted air distribution system or radiators. 1 Low-cost heat – The cost of heating with a heat pump is similar to heating with natural gas or wood. 2 This is typically half the cost of heating with oil, kerosene, electric baseboard or propane. 3 Click here to compare heating costs of different heating systems. <P> Ductless, Mini-Split Heat Pumps. Ductless, mini-split-system heat pumps (mini splits) make good retrofit add-ons to houses with non-ducted heating systems, such as hydronic (hot water heat), radiant panels, and space heaters (wood, kerosene, propane). Be sure to choose an ENERGY STAR® compliant unit and hire an installer familiar with the product and its installation. Like standard air-source heat pumps, mini splits have two main components -- an outdoor compressor/condenser and an indoor air-handling unit. <P> A ducted heat pump replaces your current forced air furnace and connects (often with a few slight modifications) to your current duct work. Like ductless mini split heat pumps a ducted system still has an exterior unit that will be installed outside your home. Since heat pumps aren’t using electricity to actually create heat, rather just extract it from outside and then blow it through your duct work, your costs for home heating will be less then if you stay on oil. Built in Backup: Ducted systems generally have a built in emergency heating backup system. <P> A ducted heat pump can deliver 1.5 to over 3 times more heat energy to a home than the electric energy it consumes. This is possible because a heat pump moves heat from the air rather than converting it from a fuel, like in combustion heating systems. This cycle can be reversed in the summer to cool your home. The mild Pacific Northwest climate provides ideal conditions for high-efficiency heat pumps. 1 Save energy and money. 2 If you heat with electricity, a heat pump can reduce the amount of energy you use for heating by as much as 30%-40%. 1 Save energy and money. 2 If you heat with electricity, a heat pump can reduce the amount of energy you use for heating by as much as 30%-40%. 3 Comfort. 4 Heat pumps deliver constant, even temperatures and also balance humidity. | A ducted heat pump can deliver 1.5 to over 3 times more heat energy to a home than the electric energy it consumes.

how can the spread of malaria be controlled | <P> Mosquito control manages the population of mosquitoes to reduce their damage to human health, economies, and enjoyment. Mosquito control is a vital public-health practice throughout the world and especially in the tropics because mosquitoes spread many diseases, such as malaria. <P> If a mosquito bites a person already infected with malaria, it can also become infected and spread the parasite on to other people. However, malaria cannot be spread directly from person to person. Once you are bitten, the parasite enters the bloodstream and travels to the liver. The parasite can be spread to humans through the bites of infected mosquitoes. There are many different types of plasmodium parasite, but only five types cause malaria in humans. These are: <P> Malaria is caused by the plasmodium parasite. The parasite can be spread to humans through the bites of infected mosquitoes. There are many different types of plasmodium parasite, but only five types cause malaria in humans. These are: <P> Malaria Prevention and Control. Methods used to prevent the spread of disease, or to protect individuals in areas where malaria is endemic, include prophylactic drugs, mosquito eradication, and the prevention of mosquito bites. <P> The parasites travel to the liver where they mature and reproduce. Five species of Plasmodium can infect and be spread by humans. Most deaths are caused by P. falciparum because P. vivax, P. ovale, and P. malariae generally cause a milder form of malaria. The species P. knowlesi rarely causes disease in humans. <P> ANSWER: Malaria can be prevented in a number of ways, the main three of which are bite reduction, prophylaxis and vector control. Bite reduction just means steering clear of mosquitoes, and specifically those that transmit malaria. <P> Controlling the vector The spread and breeding of anopheles mosquito, the vector of the malaria parasite, must be necessarily stopped or controlled from human populated areas. Remove standing water from the areas that are nearby your office or home. Anopheles mosquitoes are more active during dusk and dawn. Awareness can stop the spread of malaria as people can be more cautious at an early stage. There is a need to educate people about the causes and symptoms of malaria. Beside prevention, this will also help in early diagnosis and quick treatment <P> Malaria is a disease spread by mosquitoes that leads to fever, chills, and flu-like symptoms. It is a chronic parasitic infection can be deadly if left untreated. The plasmodium falciparum parasite that causes malaria causes about 200 million cases worldwide every year. <P> There are four species that regularly infect humans: P. falciparum (which causes the most severe form of the disease, and is responsible for 90% of the annual 700,000 fatalities caused by malaria, mainly in Africa), P. vivax, P. ovale and P. malariae. <P> The spread and breeding of anopheles mosquito, the vector of the malaria parasite, must be necessarily stopped or controlled from human populated areas. 1 Remove standing water from the areas that are nearby your office or home. 2 Anopheles mosquitoes are more active during dusk and dawn.

what is efferent listening | <P> Aesthetic and Efferent Listening – A Handout. Here is a handout I created for my language in education class. I figure I might as well post it, in case someone out there might find it useful. <P> This form of listening requires significant real-time cognitive effort as the listener analyzes what is being said, relating it to existing knowledge and rules, whilst simultaneously listening to the ongoing words from the speaker. Critical listening is listening in order to evaluate and judge, forming opinion about what is being said. Judgment includes assessing strengths and weaknesses, agreement and approval. <P> Critical listening is a form of listening that if usually not mentioned, since it involves analysis, critical thinking and judgment. Making judgments during listening is often considered as a barrier to understand a person, and there's a lot of truth in that. However, critical listening occurs when you still want to understand what the other person is saying, but also have some reason or responsibility to evaluate what is being said to you and how it is being said. <P> Answered by The Community. Making the world better, one answer at a time. Aesthic reading is for entertainment. Efferent reading is reading to carry away information; the focus is on the information in the text and illustration and not focused on the experience of reading for entertainment. Afferent means going towards a center, in this case, a vessel going towards a lymph node. Efferent means going away from center, in this case, these are vessels associated … with the thymus and spleen. <P> ISBN: 1-55037-039-1. Aesthetic Listening: This story would be used more for aesthetic listening than for efferent listening. This book can be read with a lot of expression and I think this is fun for the students to see in your voice and your facial expressions.

what is mesentery in abdomen area | <P> Mesenteric adenitis means swollen (inflamed) lymph glands in the tummy (abdomen), which cause abdominal pain. It is not usually serious and usually gets better without treatment. Mesenteric adenitis is a fairly common cause of abdominal pain in children aged under 16 years. It is much less common in adults. The name comes from mesentery, which is the part of the abdomen where the glands are located. Adenitis which means inflamed lymph glands <P> The peritoneum /ˌpɛrɨtəˈniːəm/ is the serous membrane that forms the lining of the abdominal cavity or coelom in amniotes and some invertebrates, such as annelids. It covers most of the intra-abdominal (or coelomic) organs, and is composed of a layer of mesothelium supported by a thin layer of connective tissue. Although they ultimately form one continuous sheet, two types or layers of peritoneum and a potential space between them are referenced: 1 The outer layer, called the parietal peritoneum, is attached to the abdominal wall and the pelvic walls. <P> The mesentery is a reflection of the peritoneum on the bowel surface; it also supports loops of the small bowel and the colon. The mesentery consists of two fused layers, within which lie mesenteric vessels, lymphatic vessels, nerves, and variable amounts of fat. <P> 1 The term mesentery is often used to refer to a double layer of visceral peritoneum. 2 There are often blood vessels, nerves, and other structures between these layers. 3 The space between these two layers is technically outside of the peritoneal sac, and thus not in the peritoneal cavity. Although they ultimately form one continuous sheet, two types or layers of peritoneum and a potential space between them are referenced: 1 The outer layer, called the parietal peritoneum, is attached to the abdominal wall and the pelvic walls. <P> The mesentery is the part of the peritoneum through which most abdominal organs are attached to the abdominal wall and supplied with blood and lymph vessels and nerves. Although they ultimately form one continuous sheet, two types or layers of peritoneum and a potential space between them are referenced: 1 The outer layer, called the parietal peritoneum, is attached to the abdominal wall and the pelvic walls. <P> Appendicitis is frequently associated with lymphadenopathy, most commonly in the mesentery of the right lower quadrant (Fig 13).
