what does the guru granth sahib mean
<P> The Sikh scripture is called the Guru Granth Sahib, which is considered the revealed Word of God spoken through Sikh Gurus and other blessed Saints. The Holy Words contained in the Scripture is called Gurbani which literally means ' from the Guru's mouth '. The scripture, then known as the Adi Granth, became a ‘Guru’ itself and was known as the Guru Granth Sahib. Sikhs often add the term ‘Dev Ji’ to the name of the Gurus, eg, Guru Nanak Dev Ji. This is a mark of respect. Page: 1 1. <P> Home. The word 'Sikh' in the Punjabi language means 'disciple', Sikhs are the disciples of God who follow the writings and teachings of the Ten Sikh Gurus. The wisdom of these teachings in Sri Guru Granth Sahib are practical and universal in their appeal to all mankind. Sikhs only have custodians of the Guru Granth Sahib (granthi), and any Sikh is free to read the Guru Granth Sahib in the Gurdwara (a Sikh temple) or in their home. All people of all religions are welcome to the Gurdwara. <P> The word Gurbani consists of two roots-Guru and Bani. The word Guru means spiritual teacher and here refers to the ten Gurus of Sikhism, the other Bhagats and writers whose writings can be found in the holy Guru Granth. The word Bani s refers to their utterances and writings. <P> The role of Guru Granth Sahib as a source or guide of prayer is pivotal in Sikh worship. The Adi Granth, the first rendition, was first compiled by the fifth Sikh guru, Guru Arjan (1563–1606), from hymns of the first five Sikh gurus and 15 other great saints, or bhagats, including thirteen Hindu and two Muslim saints. Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh guru, added all 115 of Guru Tegh Bahadur 's hymns to the Adi Granth, and this second rendition became known as Guru Granth Sahib. After the tenth Sikh guru died, Baba Deep Singh and Bhai Mani Singh prepared many copies of the work for distribution. <P> The Adi Granth (meaning the first scripture) was gi … ven the title Guru Granth Sahib by the tenth Sikh guru Guru Gobind Singh when he declared the book to be his successor and to be the permanent guru of the Sikhs. Guru means teacher. Granth means book. Guru Granth Sahib Ji is the Holy Book of Sikh religion. It is written by Sikh Gurus. It is the collection of Hymns or Shabads which describe the qualities of God. The role of Adi Granth, as a source or guide of prayer, is pivotal in worship in Sikhisim <P> Guru Gobind Singh (1666–1708), the tenth guru, after adding Guru Tegh Bahadur 's bani to the Adi Granth, affirmed the sacred text as his successor. The text is the holy scripture of the Sikhs, regarded as the teachings of the Ten Gurus. Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh guru, added all 115 of Guru Tegh Bahadur 's hymns to the Adi Granth, and this second rendition became known as Guru Granth Sahib. After the tenth Sikh guru died, Baba Deep Singh and Bhai Mani Singh prepared many copies of the work for distribution. <P> The Guru Granth Sahib is written in the Gurmukhī script, in various dialects – including Lehndi Punjabi, Braj Bhasha, Khariboli, Sanskrit and Persian – often coalesced under the generic title of Sant Bhasha. Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh guru, added all 115 of Guru Tegh Bahadur 's hymns to the Adi Granth, and this second rendition became known as Guru Granth Sahib. After the tenth Sikh guru died, Baba Deep Singh and Bhai Mani Singh prepared many copies of the work for distribution. <P> The Guru Granth: The Guru Granth is the eternal Guru of the Sikhs and may never be replaced by a human being. The scripture is formally referred to as Siri Guru Granth Sahib, meaning respected scripture of the supreme enlightener. The text is called Gurbani, or the Guru’s word. <P> Guru Granth Sahib. The Guru Granth Sahib, is the living Guru of Sikhism. It is a voluminous text of 1430 Angs, compiled and composed during the period of Sikh gurus, from 1469 to 1708. It is a collection of hymns or Baani describing the qualities of God and why one should meditate on God's name. The role of Guru Granth Sahib, as a source or guide of prayer, is pivotal in Sikh worship. The Adi Granth, the first rendition, was first compiled by the fifth Sikh guru, Guru Arjan, from hymns of the first five Sikh gurus and 15 other great saints, or bhagats, including those of the Hindu and Muslim faith.

what is risc processor
<P> RISC processors are also used in supercomputers such as the K computer, the fastest on the TOP500 list in 2011, second at the 2012 list, and fourth at the 2013 list, and Sequoia, the fastest in 2012 and third in the 2013 list. Contents. Various suggestions have been made regarding a precise definition of RISC, but the general concept is that of a system that uses a small, highly optimized set of instructions, rather than a more versatile set of instructions often found in other types of architectures. <P> The architectural designs of CPU are RISC (Reduced instruction set computing) and CISC (Complex instruction set computing). CISC has the ability to execute addressing modes or multi-step operations within one instruction set. It is the design of the CPU where one instruction performs many low-level operations. 1 Reduced instructions need a less number of transistors in RISC. 2 RISC uses Harvard memory model means it is Harvard Architecture. 3 A compiler is used to perform the conversion operation means to convert a high-level language statement into the code of its form. <P> PA-RISC is an instruction set architecture (ISA) developed by Hewlett-Packard. As the name implies, it is a reduced instruction set computer (RISC) architecture, where the PA stands for Precision Architecture. The design is also referred to as HP/PA for Hewlett Packard Precision Architecture. The HP 9000 machines were soon upgraded with the PA-RISC processor as well, running the HP-UX version of UNIX. Other operating systems ported to the PA-RISC architecture include Linux, OpenBSD, NetBSD and NEXTSTEP. An interesting aspect of the PA-RISC line is that most of its generations have no Level 2 cache. <P> The term CISC (complex instruction set computer or computing) refers to computers designed with a full set of computer instructions that were intended to provide needed capabilities in the most efficient way. <P> RISC Architecture. RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) is used in portable devices due to its power efficiency. For Example, Apple iPod and Nintendo DS. RISC is a type of microprocessor architecture that uses highly-optimized set of instructions. 1 Reduced instructions need a less number of transistors in RISC. 2 RISC uses Harvard memory model means it is Harvard Architecture. 3 A compiler is used to perform the conversion operation means to convert a high-level language statement into the code of its form. <P> RISC (reduced instruction set computer) is a microprocessor that is designed to perform a smaller number of types of computer instruction s so that it can operate at a higher speed (perform more millions of instructions per second, or MIPS). <P> What is the difference between CISC and RISC processor architectures? CISC, or Complex Instruction Set Computing, provides a rich instruction set that has instructions for many different types of operations, e.g. logic, math, floating point math … , and so forth. RISC, or Reduces Instruction Set Computing, has a much sparser set of instructions that allow you to do very much less with each instruction. Because the individual instructions are simpler, a RISC chip can execute many more instructions than a CISC chip in a certain amount of time. <P> Most modern CISC processors, such as the Pentium, uses a fast RISC core with an interpreter sitting between the core and the instruction. So when you are running Windows95 on a PC, it is not that much different to trying to get W95 running on the software PC emulator. RISC vs ARM. The argument that RISC processors provide more registers than CISC processors isn't right. Just take a look at the (good old) 68000, it has about the same number of registers as the ARM has. And that 80x86 compatible processors don't provide more registers is just a matter of compatibility (I guess). <P> RISC and CISC are computing systems developed for computers. Difference between RISC and CISC is critical to understanding how a computer follows your instructions. These are commonly misunderstood terms and this article intends to clarify their meanings and concepts behind the two acronyms. RISC. Pronounced same as RISK, it is an acronym for Reduced Instruction Set Computer. <P> CISC (Complex Instruction Set Computer) : It was developed by Intel. CISC is a type of design for the computers. CISC based computer will have shorter programs which are made up of symbolic machine language. A Complex Instruction Set Computer (CISC) supplies a large number of complex instructions at the assembly language level. During the early years, memory was slow and expensive and the programming was done in assembly language.
It is computing systems developed for computers.

what is cori disease
<P> Background. A glycogen storage disease (GSD) results from the absence of enzymes that ultimately convert glycogen compounds to glucose. Enzyme deficiency results in glycogen accumulation in tissues. In many cases, the defect has systemic consequences, but, in some cases, the defect is limited to specific tissues. Conversion generally is a one-way reaction from glycogen to glucose-1,6-phosphate. The enzyme is found in all tissues. Disease results from a pan-deficiency of the enzyme (GSD IIIa) or muscle-specific retention of glycogen debranching enzyme (GSD IIIb). The condition is autosomal recessive. <P> Forbes' disease. glycogen storage disease (type III), a condition in which deficiency of the debrancher enzyme dextrin-1,6-glucosidase affects the heart and liver, with hepatomegaly, hypoglycemia, acidosis, stunted growth, and a doll-like face.

what duration should you change your refrigerator water filter
<P> Best Answer: Your refrigerator water filter is almost certainly using a carbon filter and possibly another form of filtration. Although different manufacturers will have different guidelines for how long the filter will last, it's very common for an in-line filtration media to last 6 months. I purchased a new refrigerator a little over a year ago that has an ice maker and water dispenser on the front door. There is a filter indicator on the inside that counts down when it's time to change the water filter. <P> by Jamin Arvig on. If your refrigerator dispenses water, chances are it uses a water filter. And if it’s been a long time since you’ve replaced it, the inside of it may be clogged with some of the gunk you see in the picture to your left. And the crusty ice cubes below are likely an all too familiar image. Changing your refrigerator water filter is the kind of routine maintenance that can be easily put off, but just like the batteries in your smoke alarm or the oil in your car, it’s important to keep a regular schedule. <P> The filter Indicator will be Red when you have used your water filter for 6 months. If you change the filter, press the Ice Type / Filter Change button for 3 seconds to reset the filter schedule. When you do not want to use the water filter, press the Ice Type button for more than 5 seconds, the Filter Indicator and the Filter Change display will be switched off. To give you time to get a new filter the red light comes on just before the capacity of the current filter runs out. Follow these steps to change the water filter. 1. Shut off the water supply. Then turn the water filter (1) about 1/4 turn anti-clockwise. 2. Pull the water filter (1) from the case filter (2). <P> THE RIGHT TIME TO CHANGE. 1 Your filter performance will depend on how much you use it and on the water source quality, but a good rule of thumb is that it should be changed sometime between 3 and 6 months, at the most, or as specified by the manufacturer. STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR LSC27925. When the filter icon turns on, you have to change the water filter. Press the Filter button for 3 seconds to turn the icon off. Please order a replacement LT500P filter from our website before removing your current filter. Then, just follow these steps and you'll do it in no time. <P> The type of contaminants reduced by a properly functioning filter will appear more and more as your filter ages. And when it gets to the point that you start to notice – whether that’s three months, six months – or even nine months – it’s time to make a change. And the crusty ice cubes below are likely an all too familiar image. Changing your refrigerator water filter is the kind of routine maintenance that can be easily put off, but just like the batteries in your smoke alarm or the oil in your car, it’s important to keep a regular schedule. <P> In most cases, changing your refrigerator water filter is quite simple. Each manufacturer's refrigerator water filter system is different, and you should consult the owner's manual to locate the filter and follow the directions for removing and replacing it. If you have further questions, or need customer assistance in finding your replacement refrigerator water filter, give our water experts a call at 1.877.335.3339 or click the Chat Now button. <P> You can avoid drinking unwanted chemicals, particles and bacteria by changing your refrigerator water filter on a regular basis. Manufacturers recommend that you change your filter every 6 months. The life of your water filter depends on the amount of water you use and the quantity of contaminants in your water. <P> 1 Always change your filter when the indicator reaches 0. 2 If ice and water do not taste good, you may want to change your filter earlier. 3 Keep an eye on the water flow. 4 Lower water flow may indicate that your filter is becoming clogged with particles and it's time to change.

what is environmental movement pdf
<P> The environmental movement (sometimes referred to as the ecology movement), also including conservation and green politics, is a diverse scientific, social, and political movement for addressing environmental issues. The environmental movement is broad in scope and can include any topic related to the environment, conservation, and biology, as well as preservation of landscapes, flora, and fauna for a variety of purposes and uses. See List of environmental issues. <P> Environmentalism is the most popular social movement in the United States today. Five million American households contribute to national environmental organizations, which together receive over $350 million in contributions from all sources. On the local level some 6,000 environmental groups are active. <P> Some of the better known animal rights organizations in addition to the ASPCA include the Free Willy Keiko Foundation, and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). Anti-Globalization/Greens The second discursive frame related to the U.S. environmental movement is the Anti-Globalization/Greens frame. This frame, which arose in the 1990s, focuses on the rise of a global economy, and the impacts of this process for both the quality of life, and its impacts on the environment. <P> In the United States today, the organized environmental movement is represented by a wide range of organizations sometimes called non-governmental organizations or NGOs. Antitoxics groups are a subgroup that is affiliated with the Environmental Movement in the United States, that is primarily concerned with the effects that cities and their by products have on humans. This aspect of the movement is a self-proclaimed movement of housewive <P> The environmental movement is an international movement, represented by a range of organizations, from the large to grassroots and varies from country to country. Due to its large membership, varying and strong beliefs, and occasionally speculative nature, the environmental movement is not always united in its goals. The environmental movement is broad in scope and can include any topic related to the environment, conservation, and biology, as well as preservation of landscapes, flora, and fauna for a variety of purposes and uses. See List of environmental issues. <P> Still others might point to May 28, 1892 as the day when the U.S. environmental movement began. That is the date of the first meeting of the Sierra Club, which was founded by noted preservationist John Muir and is generally acknowledged as the first environmental group in the United States. It's hard to say for sure. Nobody held an organizing meeting and drew up a charter, so there is no absolute definitive answer to the question of when the environmental movement really began <P> Environmental Movements. The modern environmental movement has grown and changed in a number of ways since its (re)emergence in the 1960s and 1970s. Key to those changes have been ever more sophisticated understandings of the ways in which environmental issues and social issues are inextricably intertwined

how long to cook roast leg of lamb
<P> Insert meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of lamb (not resting in fat). Cook until the lamb roast reaches an internal temperature of 120 degrees F. Remove from oven, cover with aluminum foil, and let sit approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Remember, the lamb roast will continue to cook as it sets. The term boneless means the leg bone has been removed from the lamb roast. A boned, rolled, and tied or netted leg is easy to roast. You can easily find this type of lamb at most large grocery stores or super markets. For a generous serving of lamb roast, figure on 1/2 pound of lamb per serving. <P> Place in the bottom of a large roasting pan. Place the lamb on top of the potatoes and roast for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the internal temperature of the lamb is 135 degrees (rare) or 145 degrees (medium). Remove from the oven and put the lamb on a platter; cover tightly with aluminum foil. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven so the lamb will sit in the middle of the oven. Peel 6 of the cloves of garlic and place them in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add the rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and butter. <P> Put an onion or two in the pan and 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary. Place the roasting pan in the oven set at 350F(190C) for 15-20 minutes per pound (you don't want to cook lamb well done, but more medium to medium rare) a 6 pound leg should take about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remove the cover(or foil) for the last 15 minutes of roasting time. <P> Directions. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Using your hands, rub the lamb all over with the lemon juice.

what territory did italy gain from the treaty of versailles
<P> The territorial changes of Germany include all changes in the borders and territory of Germany from its formation in 1871 to the present. Modern Germany was formed in 1871 when Otto von Bismarck unified most of the German states (with the notable exception of Austria) into the German Empire. After the First World War Germany lost about 10% of its territory to its neighbours and the Weimar Republic was formed. <P> Germany expected a treaty based on these fourteen points. However, negotiations between the 'big four' Lloyd George of England, Orlando of Italy, Clemenceau of France and Woodrow Wilson of America did not go smoothly. Wilson believed that his fourteen points was the only way to secure everlasting peace. Anschluss-Germany was not allowed to unite with Austria. Land-Germany lost land to a number of other countries. Alsace-Lorraine was returned to France, Eupen and Malmedy were given to Belgium, North Schleswig was given to Denmark. Land was also taken from Germany and given to Czechoslovakia and Poland. <P> The Treaty of Versailles was a peace treaty between the five nations, France, Germany, Britain, Austria-Hungary and the United States after World War I. Russia had lost control of its western territory which made up Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania and parts of Poland. During the Second World War, the Soviet Union reclaimed Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and half of Poland. Italy gained parts of Austria. <P> Italy had declared war on Germany in 1915 after the Secret Treaty of London. In the treaty France and Britain had agreed that Italy would be given the Adriatic coast at the end of the war. When Orlando arrived at Versailles he expected France and Britain to keep their promise. 2. Italy was given the two small areas of Istria and the South Tirol. The Adriatic coast was made part of a new country called Yugoslavia, which included Serbia and Bosnia. 3. Other new countries were created-Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Finland were formed from land lost by Russia. <P> 1 All the land that Germany gained from Russia through the Brest-Litovsk Treaty of 1918 was confiscated. 2 In this process, Poland was recreated and Germany was separated from East Prussia by the Polish Corridor. 1 Reparations: Thus, as Germany was held responsible for the war, Germany was expected to compensate by paying a huge reparations sum of $32 billion. 2 Alsace-Lorraine, a territory that Germany took from France in 1871, was returned to the French. <P> For example, Japan and Italy were persuaded by Britain and France to join the war with the promise that they would gain territory. Point 6 was definitely not implemented by the Treaty of Versailles. However, it did begin to take place during the Stresemann years, a period of prosperity in Germany. 1 Reparations: Thus, as Germany was held responsible for the war, Germany was expected to compensate by paying a huge reparations sum of $32 billion. 2 Alsace-Lorraine, a territory that Germany took from France in 1871, was returned to the French. <P> After invading Poland in 1939, Germany annexed the lands it was forced to give to a reformed Poland in 1919–1922 by the Treaty of Versailles, including the Polish Corridor , West Prussia, the Province of Posen, and East Upper Silesia. Modern Germany was formed in 1871 when Otto von Bismarck unified most of the German states (with the notable exception of Austria) into the German Empire. After the First World War Germany lost about 10% of its territory to its neighbours and the Weimar Republic was formed. <P> It ended the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers. It was signed on 28 June 1919, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. The other Central Powers on the German side of World War I were dealt with in separate treaties. Although the armistice, signed on 11 November 1918, ended the actual fighting, it took six months of negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference to conclude the peace treaty. The treaty was registered by the Secretariat of the League of Nations on 21 October 1919, and was printed in The League of Nations Treaty Series. The treaty restored the provinces of Alsace-Lorraine to France by rescinding the treaties of Versailles and Frankfurt of 1871 as they pertained to this issue. The sovereignty of Schleswig-Holstein was to be resolved by a plebiscite to be held at a future time (see Schleswig Plebiscites). <P> Play media. The Signing of the Peace Treaty of Versailles. The Treaty of Versailles was a peace treaty between the five nations, France, Germany, Britain, Austria-Hungary and the United States after World War I. The treaty was made in 1919, but the German government did not participate in it. Russia had lost control of its western territory which made up Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania and parts of Poland. During the Second World War, the Soviet Union reclaimed Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and half of Poland. Italy gained parts of Austria. <P> The League of Nations also took control of Germany’s overseas colonies. Germany had to return to Russia land taken in the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. Some of this land was made into new states: Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia. An enlarged Poland also received some of this land. The Treaty of Versailles was the peace settlement signed after World War One had ended in 1918 and in the shadow of the Russian Revolutionand other events in Russia.

why did han solo have to die
<P> EDIT. Lucasfilm. The original idea was that they would recover [the kidnapped] Han Solo in the early part of the story and that he would then die in the middle part of the film in a raid on an Imperial base. George [Lucas] then decided he didn't want any of the principals killed. Adds 'Star Wars' producer Gary Kurtz: The original idea was that they would recover [the kidnapped] Han Solo in the early part of the story and that he would then die in the middle part of the film in a raid on an Imperial base. <P> Han was later part of the strike team that boarded the Anakin Solo to rescue Allana from Jacen. After the successful rescue, Han and Leia learned from Allana that Jacen was her father. The discovery that he was a grandfather came as a pleasant surprise to Han. When he was older, Han learned how to pickpocket by first practicing on a droid of Shrike's, and then being sent out into the streets. During this time, Solo was befriended by Dewlanna, a Wookiee who was serving as a cook aboard Trader's Luck, Shrike's ship. <P> On the run from Imperial officials, Solo became caught up with the Rebel Alliance, courtesy of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia Organa, whom he helped rescue from the Death Star. Solo helped Skywalker destroy the Death Star when it attacked the Rebel base at Yavin 4, where they had taken Organa. When he was older, Han learned how to pickpocket by first practicing on a droid of Shrike's, and then being sent out into the streets. During this time, Solo was befriended by Dewlanna, a Wookiee who was serving as a cook aboard Trader's Luck, Shrike's ship. <P> lucasfilm. George Lucas was right. It would have been a mistake to kill Han Solo in Return of the Jedi (which almost happened), and it would be a mistake to kill him in Episode VII, no matter how much Harrison Ford may want that to happen. And this holds true if they kill him off in Episode VII. I trust J.J. Abrams as a filmmaker but, I'm sorry, he will not be able to film a more iconic moment than Han telling Leia, I know.. No Star Wars fan wants to see Han Solo die -- not even dying peacefully in his sleep of old age. <P> Han Solo and Chewbacca during the early years of the Yuuzhan Vong War. Han was involved in two of the first battles of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. He aided in the evacuation of Sernpidal, where the Vong brought a moon down on the planet. When he was older, Han learned how to pickpocket by first practicing on a droid of Shrike's, and then being sent out into the streets. During this time, Solo was befriended by Dewlanna, a Wookiee who was serving as a cook aboard Trader's Luck, Shrike's ship. <P> Han Solo was a Human smuggler from the manufacturing planet Corellia who achieved galactic fame as a member of the Rebel Alliance and later the New Republic. Born on Corellia, he was orphaned at an early age and taken by the pirate Garris Shrike to serve on his crew. When he was older, Han learned how to pickpocket by first practicing on a droid of Shrike's, and then being sent out into the streets. During this time, Solo was befriended by Dewlanna, a Wookiee who was serving as a cook aboard Trader's Luck, Shrike's ship. <P> You all voted for it, so here it is! Why HAN SOLO needs to die in either Episode VII, VIII, or IX! Harrison Ford has wanted this for a long time, and so have I! Just watch the video to hear my opinions on why Han needs to bite the dust. SUBSCRIBE to STAR GEEK for WEEKLY Star Wars content. Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/StarGe... <P> Han Solo is a character in the original trilogy and sequel trilogy of the Star Wars universe. He is portrayed by Harrison Ford. He and his co-pilot, Chewbacca, become involved in the Rebel Alliance which opposes the Galactic Empire. Reunited with the Rebels, Solo is commissioned as a General. Along with Leia and Chewbacca, he goes to the forest moon of Endor and leads a team deactivating the force fields protecting the Empire's second Death Star, in which they are aided by the Ewoks while Luke fights the Emperor on the Death Star. <P> Mike Ryan of The Huffington Post published an editorial begging Disney and J.J. Abrams to not kill Han Solo in 'Star Wars: Episode 7' and in that story he brings up a few good points, most importantly that Harrison Ford wanted to kill Han Solo a long time ago. Adds 'Star Wars' producer Gary Kurtz: The original idea was that they would recover [the kidnapped] Han Solo in the early part of the story and that he would then die in the middle part of the film in a raid on an Imperial base. George [Lucas] then decided he didn't want any of the principals killed

what is the largest bear on earth
<P> It is a close call, but the polar bear is generally considered the largest bear on Earth. A close second is the brown bear, specifically the Kodiak bear. The Kodiak is a subspecies of the brown bear native to Alaska. The consensus among experts is that the polar bear is the largest, but some believe the Kodiak bear to be larger. Part of the dissension comes from the vagueness of the word largest.. <P> Kodiak bears are the largest bears in the world. They have been weighed up to 2,500lbs (approx.) and as long/tall as 14ft (approx.) (measured after being killed). The Kodiak b … ear's range is limited to the Kodiak Island off the coast of Alaska. No. The polar bear is actually the largest bear in the world, and is the largest predator on land. The largest polar bear weighed 2210 pounds and stood 14 ft tall on hind legs … , while the largest grizzly bear weighed 1760 pounds and stood 12 ft tall. 3 people found this useful. <P> The world's largest grizzly bear ever recorded is contingent on definition. Issues center around what determines the biggest. Factors include weight, head size, length of the bear, height of the bear when standing, dimension of shoulders, etc. <P> Tweet. It is a close tie between the Polar bear and the Kodiak bear; a subspecies of brown bear found only in Alaska. The polar bear wins out weighing between 300 and 600 kg and are 2 to 3 meters long. They reside in the Canadian north, Alaska (USA), Greenland, Norway and Russia, and sadly, like many other majestic animals, have an IUCN conservation status of Vulnerable. Their IUCN conservation status is Least Concern. Interestingly, there are some genetic similarities between the Kodiak bear and other brown bears found in eastern Russia. The Kodiak bear is the biggest land based carnivore in the world subsisting on mainly river salmon, mountain blueberries, and animal remains. <P> Kodiak bears are the largest bears in the world. They have been weighed up to 2,500lbs (approx.) and as long/tall as 14ft (approx.) (measured after being killed). The Kodiak bear's range is limited to the Kodiak Island off the coast of Alaska. Some accepted estimates place the total number of Kodiak bears at around 3,500 total. The Polar bear is the second largest species of bear. They have been weighed up to 2,200lbs (approx) and as long/tall as 12ft (approx). Their range is rather large, covering much of the Arctic. <P> The largest polar bear ever recorded was shot in Kotzebue Sound, Alaska in 1960 weighing a grizzly 1002 kilograms or 2,210 pounds and stood 11 feet 11 inches in height. The largest brown bear, a Kodiak bear, which is a subspecies of the brown bear, weighed in at over 2,500 pounds and was almost 14 feet tall. <P> Best Answer: The Polar Bear is generally considered the largest bear species on the planet. the largest ever specific bear measured was a Kodiak Bear weighing in at over 2500 lbs. and nearly 14 feet tall. <P> The polar bear is the largest land carnivore in the world. A lot of bears have a nasty reputation, but polar bears back it up. More people have been killed and eaten by polar bears than by all other bears combined. The opportunity to hunt a huge polar bear has been turned upside down in the past couple decades. The biggest brown bears come from Kodiak Island itself. While bears are found on many islands off Alaska and the Alaskan peninsula, 17 of the top 25 Alaskan brown bears were taken from Kodiak. The world record was bagged by Roy Lindsley in 1952.

what does microcytic hypochromic
<P> The RBC's here appear smaller than normal and have an increased zone of central pallor. This is indicative of a hypochromic (less hemoglobin in each RBC) and microcytic (smaller size of each RBC) anemia. There is also increased anisocytosis (variation in RBC size) and poikilocytosis (variation in RBC shape). <P> Microcytic anemia is defined as the presence of small, often hypochromic, red blood cells in a peripheral blood smear and is usually characterized by a low MCV (less than 83 micron 3). Iron deficiency is the most common cause of microcytic anemia. The absence of iron stores in the bone marrow remains the most definitive test for differentiating iron deficiency from the other microcytic states, ie, anemia of chronic disease, thalassemia, and sideroblastic anemia. <P> Hypochromic microcytic anemia with iron overload is a condition that impairs the normal transport of iron in cells. Iron is an essential component of hemoglobin, which is the substance that red blood cells use to carry oxygen to cells and tissues throughout the body. In hypochromic microcytic anemia with iron overload, the iron that is not used by red blood cells accumulates in the liver, which can impair its function over time. The liver problems typically become apparent in adolescence or early adulthood <P> microcytic anemia anemia characterized by microcytes (erythrocytes smaller than normal); see also hypochromic microcytic anemia and microcythemia. myelopathic anemia (myelophthisic anemia) leukoerythroblastosis. normochromic anemia that in which the hemoglobin content of the red blood cells is in the normal range. hypochromic microcytic anemia any anemia with microcytes that are hypochromic (reduced in size and in hemoglobin content); the most common type is iron deficiency anemia. hypoplastic anemia anemia due to incapacity of blood-forming organs <P> Microcytic anemia is a term used to characterize any type of anemia caused due to small red blood cells in human blood. In Microcytic anemia the red blood cells are paler than usual. Microcytic anemia is the most common types of anemia which is found. Causes. In most of the cases Microcytic anemia is caused because of the deficiency of iron. Thus it is the most sought after thing when a person is contacted with Microcytic anemia. <P> Microcytic hypochromic anemia: Introduction. Microcytic hypochromic anemia: Microcytic anemia is a blood disorder characterized by small red blood cells (erythrocytes) which have insufficient haemoglobin and hence have a reduced ability to carry oxygen through the body. 1 Treatment of microcytic hypochromic anaemia is dependant upon the underlying cause for the iron deficiency. 2 Treatments include: 3 No treatment if the cause is a thalassemia trait. 4 Investigation and treatment of underlying conditions such as coeliac disease, menorrhagia, bowel cancer. <P> In hypochromic cells, this area of central pallor is increased. This decrease in redness is due to a disproportionate reduction of red cell hemoglobin (the pigment that imparts the red color) in proportion to the volume of the cell. In many cases, the red blood cells will also be small (microcytic), leading to substantial overlap with the category of microcytic anemia. The most common causes of this kind of anemia are iron deficiency and thalassemia <P> Hypochromic anemia is a generic term for any type of anemia in which the red blood cells (erythrocytes) are paler than normal. (Hypo-refers to less, and chromic means color .) A normal red blood cell will have an area of pallor in the center of it; it is biconcave disk shaped. This decrease in redness is due to a disproportionate reduction of red cell hemoglobin (the pigment that imparts the red color) in proportion to the volume of the cell. In many cases, the red blood cells will also be small (microcytic), leading to substantial overlap with the category of microcytic anemia.
Hemoglobin content of the red blood cells is in the normal range.

titer for rheumatoid arthritis
<P> Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long lasting autoimmune disorder that primarily affects joints. It typically results in warm, swollen, and painful joints. Pain and stiffness often worsen following rest. Most commonly the wrist and hands are involved with typically the same joints involved on both sides of the body. <P> The incidence of rheumatoid arthritis is predicted by rheumatoid factor titer in a longitudinal population study. del Puente A(1), Knowler WC, Pettitt DJ, Bennett PH. Author information: (1)National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, Phoenix, Arizona 85014. <P> Description: The Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Factor test may be used to assist in the diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis or Sjogren Syndrome. Rheumatoid Factor is an auto-antibody that attack the body's own tissues. The RA factor test is useful in distinguishing Rheumatoid Arthritis or Sjogren Syndrome from other types of arthritis. Turnaround time for the Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Factor test is typically 1-2 business days. <P> The results of the rheumatoid factor (RF) test may be reported in titers or units: 1 A titer is a measure of how much the blood sample can be diluted before RF can no longer be detected. 2 Nephelometry units show how much light is blocked by the blood sample in the tube. <P> 1 A rheumatoid factor more than 23 units and a titer more than 1:80 is indicative of rheumatoid arthritis but may also occur in other conditions. 2 False positive results can occur when the blood is high in fats. 3 Inaccurate results can be caused by improper handling of the blood specimen. This test is most often used to diagnose rheumatoid arthritis. About 80% of patients with rheumatoid arthritis have positive RF tests. It may also be used to rule out or diagnose other inflammation-related conditions. Normal values depend on what method the laboratory uses to detect and measure the RF. <P> Arthritis means joint inflammation. The joint inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis causes swelling, pain, stiffness, and redness in the joints. The inflammation of rheumatoid disease can also occur in tissues around the joints, such as the tendons, ligaments, and muscles. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA or atrophic arthritis) facts. 1 Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that can cause chronic inflammation of the joints and other areas of the body. 2 Rheumatoid arthritis symptoms and signs include. 3 joint pain in the feet, hands, and knees, 4 swollen joints, 5 fever, 6 tender joints, <P> In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, the RF titer generally correlates with extra-articular manifestations and disease severity. RF testing may have prognostic value in these patients. However, RF titers are not helpful in following disease progression. <P> Interpretation. Rheumatoid factor (RF) is used in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RF results are positive in approximately 75% of patients with RA, although RF is not etiologically related to RA. High RF titers indicate a poorer prognosis, as patients with higher RF levels tend to have more severe disease.
A titer is a measure of how much the blood sample can be diluted before RF can no longer be detected.
what is pls
<P> Symptoms. Signs and symptoms of primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) usually take years to progress. They include: 1 Stiffness, weakness and spasticity in your legs. 2 Tripping, difficulty with balance and clumsiness as the leg muscles weaken. 3 Weakness and stiffness progressing to your trunk, then your arms, hands, tongue and jaw. <P> Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is a rare neuromuscular disease characterized by progressive muscle weakness in the voluntary muscles. PLS belongs to a group of disorders known as motor neuron diseases. <P> In the case that your PLS file doesn't open, it is highly likely that you do not have the correct software application installed on your PC to view or edit PLS file extensions. If your PC opens the PLS file, but it's the wrong application, you'll need to change your Windows registry file association settings. In other words, Windows is associating PLS file extensions with the wrong software program. In seconds, you will learn exactly what type of PLS file you have, the software program associated with your file, the publisher who created it, its security safety status, and a variety of other useful information. <P> The PLS files contain information about an audio file's location, but they do not contain the actual audio file or any real audio data. The .pls file extension is also used with the Accounting Plus and AccountEdge software. When the .pls file extension is used for these applications, the files contain financial information such as accounts payable and accounts receivable data. Many of the programs that used the .pls file extension are being discontinued by the distributor of the software. <P> Founded in 1991, PLS Logistics Services has become one of the country’s leading logistics management services providers. Based in Cranberry Township, PA, a suburb of Pittsburgh, PLS provides dependable outsourced logistics solutions as well as freight brokerage services. <P> Open PLS in WMP allows you to listen to PLS (MP3 Playlist, a.k.a. Shoutcast streams) in Windows Media Player. It's a simple translator that opens PLS files, finds the stream information, and passes it to Window Media Player. Windows Media Player can open PLS (Shoutcast Playlist) internet radio streams, it just doesn't know it can. <P> Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is a rare neuromuscular disease characterized by progressive muscle weakness in the voluntary muscles. PLS belongs to a group of disorders known as motor neuron diseases. Motor neuron diseases develop when the nerve cells that control voluntary muscle movement degenerate and die, causing weakness in the muscles they control. Onset of PLS usually occurs spontaneously after age 50 and progresses gradually over a number of years, or even decades. The disorder usually begins in the legs, but it may start in the tongue or the hands. Symptoms may include difficulty with balance, weakness and stiffness in the legs, and clumsiness <P> How To Open a PLS File. The easiest way to open a PLS file is to double-click on it and let your PC decide which default application should open the file. If no program opens the PLS file then you probably don't have an application installed that can view and/or edit PLS files. Perhaps you tried to open the PLS file but Windows told you that it could not open it. Before you can open a PLS file (assuming it's even a file format that's intended to be viewed or edited), you'll need to determine what kind of file the .PLS file extension refers to. <P> Definition. Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) causes weakness in your voluntary muscles, such as those you use to control your legs, arms and tongue. Primary lateral sclerosis is a type of motor neuron disease that causes muscle nerve cells to slowly break down, causing weakness. Primary lateral sclerosis can happen at any age, but it usually occurs between ages 40 and 60.
It is a rare neuromuscular disease characterized by progressive muscle weakness in the voluntary muscles.
moksha what is it
<P> Sanskrit moksha or Prakrit mokkha means liberation or salvation. It is a blissful state of existence of a soul, completely free from the karmic bondage, free from saṃsāra, the cycle of birth and death. <P> In Hindu traditions, moksha is a central concept and included as one of the four aspects and goals of human life; the other three goals are dharma (virtuous, proper, moral life), artha (material prosperity, income security, means of life), and kama (pleasure, sensuality, emotional fulfillment). In the soteriological and eschatological sense, it connotes freedom from saṃsāra, the cycle of death and rebirth. In the epistemological and psychological sense, moksha connotes freedom, self-realization and self-knowledge. <P> Moksha. Hindus believe that the soul passes through a cycle of successive lives (samsara) and its next incarnation is always dependent on how the previous life was lived (karma). In a lifetime people build up karma, both good and bad, based on their actions within that lifetime. Death is the last samsara (cycle of life) referred to as the 'last sacrifice'. Moksha is the end of the death and rebirth cycle and is classed as the fourth and ultimate artha (goal). It is the transcendence of all arthas. It is achieved by overcoming ignorance and desires. It is a paradox in the sense that overcoming desires also includes overcoming the desire for moksha itself <P> In the Hindu religion, moksha refers to state of liberation or freedom from the natural cycle of life, death, and rebirth. When a person reaches moksha, he/she is said to be free from earthly influence and reaches closer to the Divine Being. When a person is still living, moksha can be achieved through full liberation from negative things in the world. The state of moksha is considered free from earthly desires and so people need to live a life that is deeply rooted with the Divine presence. <P> In Indian religions and Indian philosophy, moksha (Sanskrit: मोक्ष mokṣa), also called vimoksha, vimukti and mukti, means emancipation, liberation or release. In the soteriological and eschatological sense, it connotes freedom from saṃsāra, the cycle of death and rebirth. In the epistemological and psychological sense, moksha connotes freedom, self-realization and self-knowledge. <P> Moksha means freedom, liberation; from what and how is where the schools differ. Moksha is also a concept that means liberation from rebirth or saṃsāra. This liberation can be attained while one is on earth (jivanmukti), or eschatologically (karmamukti, videhamukti). In the soteriological and eschatological sense, it connotes freedom from saṃsāra, the cycle of death and rebirth. In the epistemological and psychological sense, moksha connotes freedom, self-realization and self-knowledge. <P> Yoga. Moksha (Sanskrit: मोक्ष mokṣa), also called vimoksha, vimukti and mukti, means emancipation, liberation or release. In Hindu traditions, Moksha is a central concept and included as one of the four aspects and goals of human life. The concept of Moksha is found In Jainism, Buddhism and Hinduism. <P> Moksha. Moksha is a term that refers to liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth. Every person must strive hard and perform good deeds, so that his soul may rest in peace after his death. A person, who attains Moksha, gets freedom from all sorts of sufferings and pain
Moksha means freedom, liberation; from what and how is where the schools differ. Moksha is also a concept that means liberation from rebirth or saṃsāra.
cost of large conservatory
<P> Whilst a 3m X 3m Lean-To conservatory may not seem large, it does have a floor area of nine square metres which means that the choice of flooring will have a bearing on conservatory cost. A wood floor is attractive and warm to the touch during winter, but can be expensive to both buy and install. It would not be at all surprising if you still find yourself in the dark. The cost of a 3 X 3 conservatory can vary from £1,500 to £18,000. Some of this huge variation is due to the questionable work of commission only salesman, some to quality and possibly some due to unusual site conditions. <P> Size will have a significant bearing on the overall cost of your conservatory. It stands to reason that one measuring 3 metres by 2 metres will be cheaper to construct than a conservatory measuring 5 metres by 4 metres. Victorian Conservatory. £3,000 (2000mm x 2000mm) – full height glass up to £13,000 (3m x 5.5m). It is important to choose the style that suits your home the best and this depends on the shape of your house and garden. Regency conservatories are one of the more popular choices, with their ridged roofs and gable ends. <P> Expanding your home (but nothing fancy-double-storey or large extension) a conservatory roof might be just the thing you’re looking for. A small conservatory in the range of 2500mm x 3500mm will likely cost between £2,000 and £3,000. 1 A similar conservatory with a more elaborate Edwardian roof will cost around £11,000. 2 Evis quote the price of a small, basic conservatory as £5,000 while a hand-crafted, luxury orangery can cost as much as £100,000. <P> Cheap Conservatories. Typically, you can expect to pay about £500 per square metre for a basic conservatory (supply and fitting) including VAT. This cost will go up if the site is difficult, for example if the ground slopes away from the house in which case it will need leveling first. Luxury Conservatories. The price of your conservatory will go up even more if you choose a hardwood finish instead of PVCu. This will look very nice but will cost up to 50% more than a PVCu one. <P> Conservatory Average Cost. The cost of a conservatory varies widely depending on the design, local labor and material costs, and other factors. Before you begin conservatory construction, check with the local planning department to find out what permits you may need. 1 Conservatory costs start at around $7,500 to $15,000. 2 The average cost of a conservatory is $10,000 to $30,000. 3 A conservatory could cost as much as $40,000 to $80,000 or more. 1 Another Dimension: A conservatory not only technically increases the space of your home, but with its bright, open design will add roominess that exceeds its length, width, and height. 2 Value: Conservatories are a good value in terms of cost per square foot compared to other home additions. <P> 1 Evis Build put the average price of conservatories at £9,000; this will get you a uPVC, lean-to conservatory with a 16 square metre floor area and low-emissivity glazing. 2 A similar conservatory with a more elaborate Edwardian roof will cost around £11,000. 1 A similar conservatory with a more elaborate Edwardian roof will cost around £11,000. 2 Evis quote the price of a small, basic conservatory as £5,000 while a hand-crafted, luxury orangery can cost as much as £100,000. <P> The average quote for a typical conservatory tends to be around the £5,000 and up mark. With that said though it is quite possible to get one for half that price, particularly if you want something basic and you are intending to erect it on your own.

what does a capacitor do
<P> In a way, a capacitor is a little like a battery. Although they work in completely different ways, capacitors and batteries both store electrical energy. If you have read How Batteries Work, then you know that a battery has two terminals. Inside the battery, chemical reactions produce electrons on one terminal and absorb electrons on the other terminal. A capacitor is much simpler than a battery, as it can't produce new electrons -- it only stores them. In this article, we'll learn exactly what a capacitor is, what it does and how it's used in electronics. We'll also look at the history of the capacitor and how several people helped shape its progress <P> A: A capacitor, or cap, is an electronic component that can take up, store, and discharge electrical energy. Because they can do all that quickly, capacitors are used to filter or buffer any sudden changes in a circuit's voltage, smoothing the ensuing signal. back to top. <P> And you don’t want this. By using a capacitor, the capacitor can supply power for the microcontroller in the split second that the voltage drops so that the microcontroller doesn’t restart. This way it will filter out the “noise” on the power line. This type of filtering is called “decoupling”. Using Capacitors For Filters. You can also combine capacitors and resistors to form filters that target specific frequencies. For example in an audio system you can target the high frequencies to remove them (e.g. in a sub-woofer). This is called a low-pass filter. <P> Capacitor is a little like battery.Capacitor and battery both store electrical energy. Capacitor has two terminals.In side the capacitor the two terminals connect to TWO metal PLATES separated by a non-conducting substance. Capacitors are energy storing devices. A capacitor is an electrical device that can store energy in the electric field between a pair of closely spaced conductors (called 'plates'). When current is applied to the capacitor, electric charges of equal magnitude, but opposite polarity, build up on each plate. <P> Photo: Inside, an electrolytic capacitor is a bit like a Swiss roll. The plates are two very thin sheets of metal; the dielectric an oily plastic film in between them. The whole thing is wrapped up into a compact cylinder and coated in a protective metal case. WARNING: It can be dangerous to open up capacitors. And this, if you've not guessed by now, is the energy that a capacitor stores. Its two plates hold opposite charges and the separation between them creates an electric field. That's why a capacitor stores energy. <P> A motor capacitor, such as a start capacitor or run capacitor (including a dual run capacitor) is an electrical capacitor that alters the current to one or more windings of a single phase AC induction motor to create a rotating magnetic field. <P> Capacitors and inductors kinda work opposite of each other. While capacitors are charging in an AC sine wave, inductors are discharging, and when inductors are charging, capacitors are discharging. So, what you can do is if your load is inductive, you can add capacitors to the circuit to balance it out. <P> The nonconducting dielectric acts to increase the capacitor's charge capacity. A dielectric can be glass, ceramic, plastic film, air, vacuum, paper, mica, oxide layer etc. Capacitors are widely used as parts of electrical circuits in many common electrical devices. An ideal capacitor is characterized by a single constant value, its capacitance. Capacitance is defined as the ratio of the electric charge Q on each conductor to the potential difference V between them. The SI unit of capacitance is the farad (F), which is equal to one coulomb per volt (1 C/V). <P> In an electronic circuit, a capacitor is shown like this: When you connect a capacitor to a battery, here's what happens: 1 The plate on the capacitor that attaches to the negative terminal of the battery accepts electrons that the battery is producing. 2 The plate on the capacitor that attaches to the positive terminal of the battery loses electrons to the battery.
It is an electronic component that can take up, store, and discharge electrical energy.
what is a vegetarian
<P> There are varieties of the diet as well: an ovo-vegetarian diet includes eggs but not dairy products, a lacto-vegetarian diet includes dairy products but not eggs, and an ovo-lacto vegetarian diet includes both eggs and dairy products. A vegan diet excludes all animal products, including eggs, dairy, beeswax and honey. One of the main differences between a vegan and a typical vegetarian diet is the avoidance of both eggs and dairy products such as milk, cheese, butter and yogurt. Ethical vegans do not consume dairy or eggs because they state that their production causes the animal suffering and/or a premature death. <P> Veganism is a type of vegetarian diet that excludes meat, eggs, dairy products and all other animal-derived ingredients. Many vegans also do not eat foods that are processed using animal products, such as refined white sugar and some wines. <P> Vegetarianism in a Nutshell. The basics: Vegetarians do not eat meat, fish, and poultry. Vegans are vegetarians who abstain from eating or using all animal products, including milk, cheese, other dairy items, eggs, honey, wool, silk, or leather. <P> 1 Lacto-ovo-vegetarians eat both dairy products and eggs; this is the most common type of vegetarian diet. 2 Lacto-vegetarians eat dairy products but avoid eggs. 3 Vegans do not eat dairy products, eggs, or any other products which are derived from animals. There are different types of vegetarian: 1 Lacto-ovo-vegetarians eat both dairy products and eggs; this is the most common type of vegetarian diet. 2 Lacto-vegetarians eat dairy products but avoid eggs. <P> The term vegetarian generally means a person who does not consume animal products; this includes land and sea animals. Most vegetarians generally do consume eggs and dairy products (milk products). Somebody who does not consume any animal protein at all, not even eggs, dairy, or honey, is a vegan. Some people call themselves vegetarians, but they consume fish. <P> Vegetarians do not eat meat, fish or poultry, but might eat dairy products such as cheese, eggs, yogurt or milk. Vegetarians are not as predictable in their beliefs, as there are many reasons to become vegetarian that don’t necessarily include altruism as a primary motive. A vegan will generally not use any product made from animals, including silk. An ovo-vegetarian will eat eggs, while a vegan will not. Cattle consume more protein in grains than they deliver in meat. A vegan won't wear any clothing made of leather, unless it's special vegan leather that's made without animal products. <P> Lacto-vegetarian is used to describe a type of vegetarian who does not eat eggs, but does eat dairy products. Ovo-vegetarian refers to people who do not eat meat or dairy products but do eat eggs. Lacto-ovo vegetarian, that is, a vegetarian who eats both eggs and dairy products, is the most common kind of vegetarian. Learn more about lacto-ovo vegetarianism here. <P> A variety of vegan and vegetarian deli foods. Vegetarianism /ˈvɛdʒətɛəriənɪzəm/ is the practice of abstaining from the consumption of meat (red meat, poultry, seafood and the flesh of any other animal), and may also include abstention from by-products of animal slaughter. One of the main differences between a vegan and a typical vegetarian diet is the avoidance of both eggs and dairy products such as milk, cheese, butter and yogurt. Ethical vegans do not consume dairy or eggs because they state that their production causes the animal suffering and/or a premature death.
It means a person who does not consume animal products.

what is body exfoliation
<P> Exfoliation involves the removal of the oldest dead skin cells on the skin's outermost surface. Exfoliation is involved in the process of all facials, during microdermabrasion or chemical peels at medical spas. Exfoliation can be achieved through mechanical or chemical means. <P> Exfoliation is the cosmetic practice of removing dead skin cells from the epidermis, the top layer of the skin. Your skin can shed 30,000 to 40,000 dead cells per minute naturally; however, many people need exfoliation products to help reduce acne and get smooth skin. If you want to exfoliate outside of the shower, you can use circular motions with a long-handled, natural bristled brush. 1 This brush is available in the cosmetics section of most box stores, like Target and Walmart, as well as in natural food stores. 2 Start with your legs and move slowly up your body. <P> We all know we need to exfoliate the dead skin cells off of our body, but not all areas of your body should be treated the same. Your face can not be exfoliated with the same product as your feet, and vice-versa. Here we break down the body into 6 parts and talk about what is needed to exfoliate each area of your body. See how much of the dust in your home is dead skin cells .). Because most of your body isn't as thin as the skin on your face, you can have some fun when it comes to exfoliating your body. You can use the dry brush method, buy a fun body scrub or make your own. (Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Scrub Recipe) . <P> 1 When you reach the bikini area, don't scrub too hard because the skin is very sensitive. 2 Use a body brush to exfoliate your back and other hard-to-reach places. 3 Be gentle on your face, particularly around your eyes and mouth. 1 This will help remove the loose skin and prepare your skin for the exfoliating process. 2 Begin with the soles of your feet, working your way up your body. 3 Get into the shower and wet your body from head to toe. 4 Don't exfoliate your skin if you are sunburned or have any open cuts or wounds. <P> The process of exfoliation rids the body of any dry, dull skin by removing dead skin cells from the surface of the epidermis. By removing these dead cells, exfoliation can help keep pores from becoming clogged and leave skin with a refreshed and clean feeling. While regular skin cleansing is clearly beneficial, exfoliating on a regular basis -- once or twice a week for mild exfoliation, once or twice a month for more intense treatments -- can improve the results of your skin care routine and help rejuvenate your skin. <P> 1) Mechanical Exfoliation. The dead skin cells are physically rubbed off with an abrasive. Examples of mechanical exfoliation include a salt glow, a body scrub that might use sugar or coffee grounds, or skin brushing. On the face, scrubs should use small, round, gentle abrasives like jojoba beads. What You Should Know About Facial Exfoliation: 1 Be extra careful with the delicate skin of your face. 2 It's easy to overexfoliate. 3 Talk to a good esthetician about the product and frequency that is best for your skin. <P> 3. Buy an exfoliation scrub that contains beads, pits, sugar, salt or another natural exfoliating substance. It should say body scrub or cleansing scrub.. 1 Allow the shower to run over your skin for a few minutes, if you are using an exfoliating scrub or a loofah. 2 Choose warm, not hot, water. If you want to exfoliate outside of the shower, you can use circular motions with a long-handled, natural bristled brush. 1 This brush is available in the cosmetics section of most box stores, like Target and Walmart, as well as in natural food stores. 2 Start with your legs and move slowly up your body. <P> Exfoliation is the removal of the oldest dead skin cells that cling to the skin's outermost surface, or epidermis. Exfoliation is an important part of both facials and body treatments. When done correctly, exfoliation leaves the skin feeling smoother and fresher looking. Exfoliation also makes it easier for expensive facial products like serums to pentrate. What You Should Know About Facial Exfoliation: 1 Be extra careful with the delicate skin of your face. 2 It's easy to overexfoliate. 3 Talk to a good esthetician about the product and frequency that is best for your skin. <P> Dry skin can dry out even more with exfoliation, which can lead to irritation and even wrinkles. Note that there are different products for use on the body and the face; the face is the part of your body with the most sensitive skin, so it's not good to exfoliate it too harshly or too often.
Exfoliation is an important part of both facials and body treatments.When done correctly, exfoliation leaves the skin feeling smoother and fresher looking.
what does a osteopath do
<P> email. Knowledge center. Osteopathy is a form of drug-free non-invasive manual medicine that focuses on total body health by treating and strengthening the musculoskeletal framework, which includes the joints, muscles and spine. Its aim is to positively affect the body's nervous, circulatory and lymphatic systems. This therapy is a unique holistic (whole body) approach to health care. Osteopaths do not simply concentrate on treating the problem area, but use manual techniques to balance all the systems of the body, to provide overall good health and wellbeing. <P> Holders of the D.O. degree have the ability to become licensed as osteopathic physicians who have equivalent rights, privileges, and responsibilities as physicians with a Doctor of Medicine degree (M.D.). The regulation of non-physician manual medicine osteopaths varies greatly between jurisdictions. In the United States, osteopathic physicians holding the D.O. degree have attained the same rights, privileges, and responsibilities as physicians with a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree. <P> For the American Medical practice of osteopathic physicians in the United States, see Osteopathic medicine in the United States. For diseases of the bone, see bone disease and osteology. Osteopathy is a type of alternative medicine that emphasizes the physical manipulation of the body's muscle tissue and bones. Its name derives from Ancient Greek bone (ὀστέον) and disease of (-πάθεια), Analysis of peer-reviewed research yields little evidence that osteopathy is effective for non-musculo-skeletal conditions, and limited evidence that osteopathy is an effective treatment for some types of neck pain, shoulder pain, or limb pain. <P> Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O. or DO) is a professional doctoral degree for physicians and surgeons offered by medical schools in the United States. The regulation of non-physician manual medicine osteopaths varies greatly between jurisdictions. In the United States, osteopathic physicians holding the D.O. degree have attained the same rights, privileges, and responsibilities as physicians with a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree. <P> Benefits of Osteopathy. Osteopathic treatment in itself is not 'preventative' . Osteopaths respect the body's natural ability as a self-regulating mechanism and only intervene when pain or discomfort is present. The benefits of osteopathy are the general improvement in mobility and structural stability of the body. This therapy is a unique holistic (whole body) approach to health care. Osteopaths do not simply concentrate on treating the problem area, but use manual techniques to balance all the systems of the body, to provide overall good health and wellbeing. <P> Osteopaths can treat patients with many complaints. Possible complaints include: • Back and neck problems: pain, lumbago, hernia, blockades, muscle stiffness, limited mobility, etc. • Joint problems: pain, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, etc. <P> A Doctor of Osteopathy (D.O.), more correctly called a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, is very much like a traditional medical doctor (M.D.), but receives additional training in the body's musculoskeletal system. A doctor of osteopathy typically practices manipulative medicine treatment in addition to more traditional methods of symptom relief and prevention. A doctor of osteopathy studies the body as a whole. <P> Doctors of osteopathy believe that posture can affect the functionality of systems of the body. A doctor of osteopathy typically practices manipulative medicine treatment in addition to more traditional methods of symptom relief and prevention. A doctor of osteopathy studies the body as a whole. A doctor of osteopathy is less likely to specialize than a medical doctor <P> The philosophy of Osteopathy is to treat the body as a whole and to acknowledge the relationships between the body’s structure and function and its inert ability to heal itself. Osteopaths treat a broad spectrum of musculosketal and other conditions. Some examples we commonly see include: 1 Low back pain. 2 Neck and shoulder pain. 3 Headaches / Migraines. 4 Postural problems. 5 Sciatica. 6 Disc prolapses and associated pain. 7 Whiplash.

temperature to incubate duck eggs
<P> Candle and remove eggs with dead embryos. At the time of transfer, the temperature of the hatcher should be set at 37.2°C (99°F) and the humidity set at 65% (88°F wet bulb). As the hatch progresses, and eggs begin to pip, increase the humidity to 80% (93°F wet bulb), and increase ventilation openings by about 50%. Since duck eggs are larger than chicken eggs, setting trays must be designed to accommodate their larger size. Eggs from common ducks like Pekins require 28 days to hatch. Eggs from Muscovy ducks hatch in about 35 days after setting. When larger numbers of duck eggs are to be hatched, large commercial incubators (setters) and hatchers are normally used <P> 99.5 degrees Fahrenheit (37.5 degrees Celsius) is optimum incubating temp. for duck eggs with the temp. being lowered by one degree to 98.5 in the last 3 days of incubat … ion (25-28th day). Lowest temp. - highest temp. range is 97 - 102. Duck eggs need to be incubated since layed. Most breeds of duck dont sit on their eggs, until 6 months after starting to lay. Duck eggs need to be at a temp of around 37 degre … es. Duck eggs are bigger than chicken eggs, so they are easy to tell the difference. <P> The forced air Hova-bator should be operated at 99.25*F and 99.75*F for incubating duck eggs. The temperature should be watched closely during the hatch and adjusted as necessary. As the incubation progresses, there is a temperature increase from the growing embryos in the last 7 to 10 days. Clean eggs keep the incubator clean and give you a higher hatch rate. As you are collecting the duck eggs for hatching, keep them a room temperature of 65* to 75*F and turn them once a day. I put mine in an egg carton, small side down, and support one end of the egg carton on a book. To turn the eggs, I change the end of the carton that is raised <P> If the incubator is not already in operation, start the incubator and allow the temperature and humidity to stabilize a day or two before setting eggs. Set the temperature at 37.5°C (99.5°F) and relative humidity at 55% (84.5°F on wet bulb thermometer). Set ventilation as recommended by the incubator manufacturer. Since duck eggs are larger than chicken eggs, setting trays must be designed to accommodate their larger size. Eggs from common ducks like Pekins require 28 days to hatch. Eggs from Muscovy ducks hatch in about 35 days after setting.

When larger numbers of duck eggs are to be hatched, large commercial incubators (setters) and hatchers are normally used. <P> 4. Start incubator several hours before adding the eggs to make sure the temperature stabilizes at 98–99.9 °F (36.7–37.7 °C) and Humidity at 30-50%. I have found that starting my incubator 24 hours before usually allows plenty of time for all the minor adjustments to be made prior to incubation of the eggs. <P> Chicken eggs are incubated at 99 to 99.5 degrees. Chicken eggs incubate for 21 days. Your countdown for days starts when you put your eggs in your incubator. It does not start when the hen lays her eggs. Duck eggs are incubated at 99 to 99.5 degrees. Mallard and domestic duck eggs (including Ancona) incubate for 28 days. Muscovy duck eggs incubate for 35 days. You start counting your days when you put the eggs in your incubator <P> We guarantee that at least 80% of the eggs you purchase will be alive at the first candling (after about 7 days of incubation). If you find your fertility is less than 80%, and would like a refund, you need to contact us. . No refunds are possible after that date. We sell duck eggs for one half the cost of the duckling. In other words, if the duckling costs $4.00, the hatching egg costs $2.00. We can tell you our current fertility (normally 85-93%) but we cannot guarantee hatchability.

what role did matthias schleiden play in cell theory
<P> Matthias Jakob Schleiden (5 April 1804 – 23 June 1881) was a German botanist and co-founder of the cell theory, along with Theodor Schwann and Rudolf Virchow. Born in Hamburg, Schleiden was educated at Heidelberg, then practiced law in Hamburg, but soon developed his love for the botany into a full-time pursuit. Thus, Schleiden and Schwann became the first to formulate what was then an informal belief as a principle of biology equal in importance to the atomic theory of chemistry. <P> Schleiden was one of the first German biologists to accept Charles Darwin 's theory of evolution. He became professor of botany at the University of Dorpat in 1863. He concluded that all plant parts are made of cells and that an embryonic plant organism arises from the one cell. Thus, Schleiden and Schwann became the first to formulate what was then an informal belief as a principle of biology equal in importance to the atomic theory of chemistry. <P> By 1838 his methods had led him to propose the cell theory for plants. Schleiden was the first to recognize the importance of cells as fundamental units of life. In his most well-known article, Schleiden described Robert Brown's 1832 discovery of the cell nucleus (which he renamed cytoblast). Schleiden knew that the cell nucleus must somehow be connected with cell division, but he mistakenly believed that new cells erupted from the nuclear surface like blisters. <P> Matthias Schleiden was born in Hamburg, Germany, in 1804. He did not originally pursue his interest in botany; instead, he studied law at Heidelberg University from 1824 to 1827 (no doubt influenced by his wealthy family). In his most well-known article, Schleiden described Robert Brown's 1832 discovery of the cell nucleus (which he renamed cytoblast). Schleiden knew that the cell nucleus must somehow be connected with cell division, but he mistakenly believed that new cells erupted from the nuclear surface like blisters. <P> German botanist, born April 5, 1804, Hamburg; died June 23, 1881, Frankfurt am Main. Matthias Jakob Schleiden is recognised as the discoverer of the universality of cell structure in plants, and with Schwann shares the honour of originating the cell theory. Schleiden was the son of a well-to-do municipal physician of Hamburg. Schleiden was one of the first German biologists to accept Charles Darwin 's theory of evolution. ”As a popularizer he was a model, as a scientist an initiator.”. L. Errera, One of his early biographers. Marc Klein (1905-1975): Schleiden, Mathias Jakob. <P> Schleiden, Matthias Jakob (1804-81), German botanist, who, with the German physiologist Theodor Schwann, formulated the cell theory. Born in Hamburg and educated in law at Heidelberg, Schleiden left law practice to study botany, which he then taught at the University of Jena from 1839 to 1862. <P> Schwann implemented Matthias Schleiden’s cell theory to animals in 1839, and demonstrated that every mature animal tissue is composed of embryonic cells. He later moved to the University of Liege, Liège belgium in, 1848 where he taught physiology and. anatomy Early Life and Education: Theodor Schwann was born in Neuss, Germany in 1810. His father was a goldsmith. Schwann loved tinkering with mechanical devices as a child. He studied medicine at the universities of Bonn, Wuerzburg, würzburg And. berlin <P> In 1838, Schwann and Matthias Jakob Schleiden (1804-1881) developed the cell theory.. Schwann went on and published his monograph Microscopic Researches into Accordance in the Structure and Growth of Animals and Plants in 1839. <P> Best Answer: Matthias Jakob Schleiden (5 April 1804 – 23 June 1881) was a German botanist and co-founder of the cell theory, along with Theodor Schwann and Rudolf Virchow. <P> In 1839, Theodor Schwann would expand Schleiden's cell theory to include the animal world, establishing cell theory as the fundamental concept in biology. Schleiden included this article and others in a botany textbook--one that introduced new teaching methods which would dominate the instruction of botany for years. In his most well-known article, Schleiden described Robert Brown's 1832 discovery of the cell nucleus (which he renamed cytoblast). Schleiden knew that the cell nucleus must somehow be connected with cell division, but he mistakenly believed that new cells erupted from the nuclear surface like blisters.

The Colosseum was a large outdoor stadium that could seat around 50,000 people for various forms of entertainment such as gladiator games, mock battles, and dramas. <P> Smithsonian Magazine | Subscribe. The floor of the colosseum, where you might expect to see a smooth ellipse of sand, is instead a bewildering array of masonry walls shaped in concentric rings, whorls and chambers, like a huge thumbprint. <P> The Colosseum or Flavian Amphitheatre is a large ellipsoid arena built in the first century CE under the Roman emperors of the Flavian dynasty: Vespasian (69-79 CE), Titus (79-81 CE) and Domitian (81-96 AD). Roman architecture continued the legacy left by the earlier architects of the Greek world, and the Roman respect for this tradition and their particular reverence for the established architectural orders, especially the Corinthian, is evident in many of their large public buildings. <P> The Colosseum, (the Flavian Amphitheatre) is one of Rome's most famous buildings and enduring monuments to the culture of the ancient Romans. Construction was initiated by the Emperor Vespasian around 72 AD. His son Titus reigned over its completion and the official opening ceremonies, about 8 years later, in 80 AD.

Modern scholars often say that the hierarchy of seating mirrored the social hierarchies of Roman society. <P> The name Flavium is the family/dynasty name of the Roman Emperors who built the Colosseum. The present day name Colosseum, or rather Colosseo, is said to have come from the colossal 35m (115 feet) high bronze statue of Nero, The Colossus, that stood between the stadium and the Roman Forum. The ancient Roman Colosseum was the first free-standing amphitheater. It has an elliptical (oval) plan with a length of 189m (620 feet), height 48m (158 feet) and width 156m (512 feet). The central area of the arena is 88m (287 ft) long and 55m (180 ft) wide <P> Construction of the Ancient Roman Colosseum was started by Emperor Vespasian in 70 A.D.

Photic Zone indicates the environment is __________ the surface where the light is strong
<P> The abyssal zone is a subdivision of the benthic zone. The abyssal zone includes the deep-ocean floor, such as abyssal plains. This zone is characterized by extremely high water pressure, consistently low temperature, no sunlight, and sparse life. Food sources at abyssal depths typically come from the surface. The aphotic part of this zone has giant squid and other species that are adapted to life in deep water. Benthos organisms such as giant kelp, sponges, crabs, sea anemones, sea stars, and marine worms that attach to, crawl upon, or burrow into the seafloor occupy parts <P> The sunlit region near the surface in which photosynthesis can occur is known as the photic zone. The photic zone may be as deep as 200 meters in tropical seas, but just a few meters deep or less in rivers and swamps. “The physical and chemical structure of the ocean provides habitats that marine organisms depend on. Photosynthetic algae, called phytoplankton, live in the photic zone. Zooplankton—tiny free-floating animals—eat phytoplankton. This is the first step in many aquatic food webs. Below the photic zone is the dark. aphotic. zone. , where photosynthesis cannot occur. <P> This is a relatively thin layer (10–100 m) near the ocean's surface where there is sufficient light for photosynthesis to occur. For practical purposes, the thickness of the photic zone is typically defined by the depth at which light reaches 1% of its surface value. <P> Phytoplankton drifting about below the surface of the water still carry out photosynthesis. This process can occur as long as enough light is available for the chlorophyll and other pigments to absorb. In the ocean, light can reach as far as 200m below the surface 25. This region where sunlight can reach is known as the euphotic zone. Phytoplankton and other algae can be found throughout this zone. <P> It also varies with seasonal changes in turbidity. Since the photic zone is where almost all of the photosynthesis occurs, the depth of the photic zone is generally proportional to the level of primary production that occurs in that area of the ocean. About 90% of all marine life lives in the photic zone. The bottommost zone, below the euphotic zone, is called the aphotic zone. Most deep ocean waters belong to this zone. The transparency of the water, which determines the depth of the photic zone, is measured simply with a Secchi disk. <P> In the euphotic zone, phytoplankton use sunlight to produce food and become the basis of most oceanic food webs. Although photosynthesis cannot occur much below 100 meters, there is enough light in the lower photic zone for marine animals to avoid predators, find food, recognize their species, and locate mates. The aphotic part of this zone has giant squid and other species that are adapted to life in deep water. Benthos organisms such as giant kelp, sponges, crabs, sea anemones, sea stars, and marine worms that attach to, crawl upon, or burrow into the seafloor occupy parts of the benthic zone. <P> The eupohotic zone is the portion of the photic zone near the surface where the sunlight is strong enough for photosynthesis to occur. In the open ocean, this zone can reach a depth of 100 meters, but the zone will be much shallower closer to shore where clarity is typically reduced. In the eupohotic zone, phytoplankton use sunlight to produce food and become the basis of most oceanic food webs. Although photosynthesis cannot occur much below 100 meters, there is enough light in the lower photic zone for marine mammals to avoid predators, find food, recognize other species, and locate mates. Animals in this zone swim or float freely. The photic part of the pelagic zone is home to phytoplankton, zooplankton, and nekton, such as tuna, sea turtles, and dolphins. The aphotic part of this zone has giant squid and other species that have adapted to life in the deep waters. <P> The zone which extends from the base of the euphotic zone to about 200 metres is sometimes called the disphotic zone. While there is some light, it is insufficient for photosynthesis, or at least insufficient for photosynthesis at a rate greater than respiration. The bottommost zone, below the euphotic zone, is called the aphotic zone. Most deep ocean waters belong to this zone. The transparency of the water, which determines the depth of the photic zone, is measured simply with a Secchi disk. <P> The euphotic zone is the portion of the photic zone near the surface where light is strong enough for photosynthesis to occur.

what is lead poisoning
<P> Lead poisoning is a serious and sometimes fatal condition. It occurs when lead builds up in the body. Lead is a highly toxic metal and a very strong poison. It is found in lead-based paints, including paint on the walls of old houses and toys. A high, toxic dose of lead poisoning may result in emergency symptoms. These include: 1 severe abdominal pain and cramping. 2 vomiting. 3 muscle weakness. <P> What is lead poisoning? Lead poisoning occurs when you absorb too much lead by breathing or swallowing a substance with lead in it, such as paint, dust, water, or food. Lead can damage almost every organ system. In children, too much lead in the body can cause lasting problems with growth and development. Lead poisoning is usually caused by months or years of exposure to small amounts of lead at home, work, or day care. It can also happen very quickly with exposure to a large amount of lead. Many things can contain or be contaminated with lead: paint, air, water, soil, food, and manufactured goods. <P> Lead poisoning (also known as plumbism, colica pictorum, saturnism, Devon colic, or painter's colic) is a type of metal poisoning and a medical condition in humans and other vertebrates caused by increased levels of the heavy metal lead in the body. The Centers for Disease Control (US) has set the standard elevated blood lead level for adults to be 10 µg/dl of the whole blood. For children the number is set much lower at 5 µg/dl of blood as of 2012 down from a previous 10 µg/dl. Children are especially prone to the health effects of lead. <P> Lead is a heavy metal that is toxic to the human body. Lead poisoning can result from placing lead objects in your mouth, placing fingers in your mouth after handling lead, or from breathing dust that contains lead. Since lead poisoning can cause permanent complications, the best treatment for lead poisoning is prevention. If lead is ingested, bowel irrigation or gastric lavage (stomach pumping) may be considered to help clear the gut. Chelation therapy may be needed to bind and remove lead from the body. <P> Lead poisoning often develops gradually as lead accumulates in the body as a result of multiple exposures. Lead exposure and poisoning is especially concerning in infants and children, as it can affect their developing nervous systems and interfere with mental development. Since lead poisoning can cause permanent complications, the best treatment for lead poisoning is prevention. If lead is ingested, bowel irrigation or gastric lavage (stomach pumping) may be considered to help clear the gut. Chelation therapy may be needed to bind and remove lead from the body. <P> Because lead poisoning can be gradual, its symptoms may not be obvious. Symptoms can include slowed growth, behavioral problems, problems in school, developmental delay, abdominal pain, constipation, headache, sleep disorders, decreased appetite, fatigue, decreased sensation, and hearing problems. Since lead poisoning can cause permanent complications, the best treatment for lead poisoning is prevention. If lead is ingested, bowel irrigation or gastric lavage (stomach pumping) may be considered to help clear the gut. Chelation therapy may be needed to bind and remove lead from the body. <P> Lead poisoning occurs when a person swallows, absorbs, or inhales lead in any form. The result can be damaging to the brain, nerves, and many other parts of the body. <P> Definition. Lead poisoning occurs when lead builds up in the body, often over a period of months or years. Even small amounts of lead can cause serious health problems. Children under the age of 6 are especially vulnerable to lead poisoning, which can severely affect mental and physical development. At very high levels, lead poisoning can be fatal

Here are average costs per inpatient day in 2013, organized by hospital ownership type, in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, according to the latest statistics from Kaiser State Health Facts. <P> 1 Medicare beneficiaries paid an average of $725 per inpatient stay, [21] compared to $410 for each observation stay (and $528 if drug costs were included in each observation stay). [ 2 22]. Short inpatient stays were often for the same reasons as observation stays. [19]. The Medicare program and Medicare beneficiaries pay more for short inpatient stays than for observation stays: 1 The Medicare program paid an average of $5,142 for each short inpatient stay, compared to $1,741 for each observation stay. <P> Findings. Hospital costs by age, 2010. In 2010, the average cost per hospital stay was $9,700 and the aggregate cost for all hospital stays totaled $375.9 billion. Figures 1 and 2 show the distribution of aggregate hospital costs and stays by age and the average hospital cost per stay by age, respectively. ■ Adults ages 45–64 and 65–84 accounted for nearly two-thirds of aggregate costs in 2010 and had the highest average cost per stay ($12,100 and $12,300, respectively). This Statistical Brief presents data from the Healthcare Cost and. Utilization Project (HCUP) on costs of hospital stays in the United. States in 2010. <P> ■ Aggregate inflation-adjusted costs for hospital stays grew 3.8 percent annually between 1997 and 2010, with 2.9 percent attributed to an increase in the intensity of services (cost per stay) and 1.0 percent attributed to growth in the population. ■ Adults ages 45–64 and 65–84 accounted for nearly two-thirds of aggregate costs in 2010 and had the highest average cost per stay ($12,100 and $12,300, respectively). This Statistical Brief presents data from the Healthcare Cost and. Utilization Project (HCUP) on costs of hospital stays in the United. States in 2010. <P> In 2012, mean hospital costs per stay for surgical stays ($21,200) were 2.5 times the mean costs for medical stays ($8,500) and approximately five times the mean costs for maternal and neonatal stays ($4,300). 5 ■ Medicare-covered stays had high mean hospital costs but slow growth between 2008 and 2012. Mean hospital costs in 2012 were highest for hospital stays billed to Medicare: $12,200 compared with $8,100 for Medicaid-covered stays, $8,800 for stays for uninsured patients, and $9,700 for privately insured stays. <P> Medicare, meanwhile, is concerned about overpaying for short hospital stays that it believes should have been classified as outpatient stays. In 2012, the average short inpatient stay cost Medicare $5,142, versus $1,741 for an observation stay. On average, beneficiaries also pay less for observation stays: $401, compared with $725 for short inpatient stays. But observation stays create pitfalls for some Medicare enrollees. <P> MHSA hospital stays cost $9.7 billion in 2008 or 2.7 percent of all inpatient community hospital costs. Average Cost for Hospital Stay: MH and SA hospitalizations are, on average, less expensive than non-MHSA stays: 1 $5,700 per MH stay. 2 $4,600 per SA stay. For SA stays, the average cost in the highest cost state ($6,600) was more than twice that in the lowest cost state ($2,900). MHSA Length of Stay: Hospital lengths of stay for mental health or substance abuse disorders also vary considerably, especially for mental health-related admissions. <P> Wide Variation by State: The average cost of inpatient hospital stays for mental health or substance abuse disorders vary widely from state to state. The average cost of a MH stay in the highest cost state ($13,300) was four times that in the lowest cost state ($2,900). For SA stays, the average cost in the highest cost state ($6,600) was more than twice that in the lowest cost state ($2,900). MHSA Length of Stay: Hospital lengths of stay for mental health or substance abuse disorders also vary considerably, especially for mental health-related admissions.

normal temperature ear thermometer
<P> Generally, the correlation of temperature results are as follows: 1 The average normal oral temperature is 98.6°F (37°C) . 2 A rectal temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 3 An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 1 An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 2 An armpit (axillary) temperature is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature. 3 A forehead (temporal) scanner is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature. <P> You can take a temperature using the mouth (oral), anus (rectal), armpit (axillary), or ear (tympanic). But the temperature readings vary depending on which one you use, and you need an accurate body temperature to determine if a fever is present. 1 An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 2 An armpit (axillary) temperature is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature. 3 A forehead (temporal) scanner is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature. <P> Most people think of a normal body temperature as an oral temperature of 98.6°F (37°C) . This is an average of normal body temperatures. Your temperature may actually be 1°F (0.6°C) or more above or below 98.6°F (37°C) . Also, your normal body temperature changes by as much as 1°F (0.6°C) throughout the day, depending on how active you are and the time of day. Body temperature is very sensitive to hormone levels and may be higher or lower when a woman is ovulating or having her menstrual period. <P> The normal range for ear temperatures taken with the Braun ThermoScan Instant Thermometer is from 35.8°C (96.4°F) to 38.0°C (100.4°F) for all ages.Normal body temperature also varies with age. We have the highest temperatures when we are younger. About our eleventh year, body temperature begins to decrease gradually. For your reference, the following chart shows normal ear temperature ranges by ages groups for the Braun ThermoScan Instant Thermometer:When consulting your physician about fever, remember to communicate that this is an ear temperature, referrring to the appropriate ear temperature range in the chart above. <P> 1 A rectal temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 2 An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 3 An armpit (axillary) temperature is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature. 1 An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 2 An armpit (axillary) temperature is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature. 3 A forehead (temporal) scanner is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature. <P> That is a fever in your ear. Ear thermometers are really not that accurate. You would be better off getting an oral thermometer and putting it under her arm (pit). I believe that you add 2 degrees to the ear temperature, so that would make your daughters temp 101.6. My doctor told me not to add to the underarm reading if it goes over 101. <P> 1 The average normal oral temperature is 98.6°F (37°C) . 2 A rectal temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 3 An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 1 An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) higher than an oral temperature. 2 An armpit (axillary) temperature is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature. 3 A forehead (temporal) scanner is usually 0.5°F (0.3°C) to 1°F (0.6°C) lower than an oral temperature. <P> 1 In this age range you can also use a digital thermometer to take an armpit temperature, a temporal artery thermometer or a digital pacifier thermometer. 2 However, wait until your baby is at least 6 months old to use a digital ear thermometer. 1 Rectal temperature. 2 Turn on the digital thermometer and lubricate the tip of the thermometer with petroleum jelly. 3 Lay your baby or child on his or her back, lift his or her thighs, and insert the lubricated thermometer 1/2 to 1 inch (1.3 to 2.5 centimeters) into the rectum. 4 Stop if you feel any resistance. <P> 1 Ear temperature. 2 Turn on the thermometer. 3 Gently place the thermometer in your child's ear. 4 Follow the directions that come with thermometer to ensure you insert the thermometer the proper distance into the ear canal. 5 Hold the thermometer tightly in place until the thermometer signals that it's done. 1 Rectal temperature. 2 Turn on the digital thermometer and lubricate the tip of the thermometer with petroleum jelly. 3 Lay your baby or child on his or her back, lift his or her thighs, and insert the lubricated thermometer 1/2 to 1 inch (1.3 to 2.5 centimeters) into the rectum. 4 Stop if you feel any resistance.

who is usually responsible for chaos
<P> The Chaos Decretum was a military organization within Second Life loosely based off of the warhammer universe of a warrior-cult army of heretical Imperial Guardsmen known as Blood Pact that, unlike other followers of Chaos, live a disciplined military lifestyle. <P> Part of the fascination with this theory has to do its claim that chaos which is inherently more interesting than order-is a pervasive feature of the world around us. Chaos, we are told, is responsible for the unpredictability of the weather and the fluctuations of the stock market. <P> He was also worshiped as a fertility god, believed to be a contemporary of the primeval Chaos, which makes Eros one of the oldest gods. In the Dionysian Mysteries Eros is referred to as protagonus, the first born. But there are many variations to whom the parents of Eros really where. <P> Chaos, also known to its servants as the Primordial Truth or the Primordial Annihilator, and to the Imperium of Man as the Archenemy, is the universal and usually malign spiritual force embodied by the malevolent intelligent entities comprised of psychic energy that live in the Warp. <P> Current Engagements of the Imperium with the Chaos Space Marines. The Forces of Chaos is a term applied by Imperial scholars to all the myriad servants of the Ruinous Powers of Chaos who seek to destroy the Imperium of Man and replace it with the utterly anarchic predominance of Chaos. <P> Chaos is almost synonymous with the Warp -- the two concepts are inseparable, for Chaos is the limitless ocean of spiritual, psychic and emotional energy that defines the Immaterium and underlies the 4-dimensional material universe of space-time. <P> Recall that mathematically, chaos is a property of dynamical systems which are deterministic (§1.2.1). Since the 18th century, the best models of and support for metaphysical determinism were thought to be the determinism of theories and models in physics. <P> Chaos theory is the study of nonlinear dynamics, in which seemingly random events are actually predictable from simple deterministic equations. In a scientific context, the word chaos has a slightly different meaning than it does in its general usage as a state of confusion, lacking any order.

what was the treaty of versailles purpose
<P> World War I officially ended with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919. Negotiated among the Allied powers with little participation by Germany, its 15 parts and 440 articles reassigned German boundaries and assigned liability for reparations. Treaty of Versailles Ends World War I. German resentment over harsh peace terms leads to a rise in nationalist sentiment and the eventual rise to power of Adolf Hitler. <P> In 1919, the Big Four met in Paris to negotiate the Treaty: Lloyd George of Britain, Vittorio Emanuele Orlando of Italy, Georges Clemenceau of France, and Woodrow Wilson of the U.S. The Treaty of Versailles included a plan to form a League of Nations that would serve as an international forum and an international collective security arrangement. U.S. President Woodrow Wilson was a strong advocate of the League as he believed it would prevent future wars. <P> On June 28, 1919, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, Germany's representatives Hermann Mueller müller And Johannes bell signed The Versailles treaty in The hall Of mirrors in The palace Of versailles Near, Paris. france The details of the Versailles Treaty had been debated and finalized at the Paris Peace Conference, which opened on January 18, 1919 - just over two months after the fighting on the Western Front ended. <P> The Treaty of Versailles was one of the peace treaties at the end of World War I. It ended the war between Germany and the Allied Powers.

Here are the terms of the Treaty of Versailles: Germany was to accept the blame for starting the war, under the terms of 'War guilt' cause. Germany was to reduce its army to 100,000 men. Germany could only have 6 battleships in its navy <P> It ended the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers. It was signed on 28 June 1919, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. The other Central Powers on the German side of World War I were dealt with in separate treaties. Although the armistice, signed on 11 November 1918, ended the actual fighting, it took six months of negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference to conclude the peace treaty. The defeated nations of Germany, Austria, and Hungary were excluded from the negotiations. Russia was also excluded because it had negotiated a separate peace (the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk) with Germany in 1918. The terms of this treaty awarded Germany a large proportion of Russia's land and resources. <P> It made Germany very poor. Here are the terms of the Treaty of Versailles: Germany was to accept the blame for starting the war, under the terms of 'War guilt' cause. Germany was to reduce its army to 100,000 men. Germany could only have 6 battleships in its navy. <P> Article 231 of the Treaty of Versailles, known as the War Guilt Clause, was a statement that Germany was responsible for beginning World War I. It reads as follows: <P> The Paris Peace Conference was an international meeting convened in January 1919 at Versailles just outside Paris. The purpose of the meeting was to establish the terms of the peace after World War. Though nearly thirty nations participated, the representatives of Great Britain, France, the United States, and Italy became known as the Big Four.. The Treaty of Versailles included a plan to form a League of Nations that would serve as an international forum and an international collective security arrangement. U.S. President Woodrow Wilson was a strong advocate of the League as he believed it would prevent future wars. <P> The Versailles Treaty, signed on June 28, 1919, was the peace settlement between Germany and the Allied Powers that officially ended World War I. The details of the Versailles Treaty had been debated and finalized at the Paris Peace Conference, which opened on January 18, 1919 - just over two months after the fighting on the Western Front ended.

where is the semi vesicles located
<P> The seminal vesicles (Latin: glandulae vesiculosae), vesicular glands, or seminal glands, are a pair of simple tubular glands posteroinferior to the urinary bladder of some male mammals. Seminal vesicles are located within the pelvis. The seminal vesicles develop as one of three structures of the male reproductive system that develops at the junction between the urethra and vas deferens. Both the urethra and vas deferens are derived from the mesonephric ducts, structures that develop from mesoderm. <P> The seminal vesicles are paired organs of the male genitourinary system. Specifically, they are genital organs. The male genital organs include the penis, testes, excretory genital ducts, ductus deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate, and bulbourethral glands. Of these organs, the seminal vesicles, prostate, and bulbourethral glands are considered accessory glandular structures. Anterior aspect of the seminal vesicles, terminal parts of the deferent ducts, and the prostate. (Source: Gray's Anatomy.). The ureters pass in between the superior, rounded aspects of the seminal vesicles and the superior portions of the ampullae of the ductus deferentes. <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. In male animals, the seminal vesicles are two pouches, each connected to one vas deferens. They produce an additional fluid that combines with the sperm to produce semen. The seminal vesicle is also called seminal gland. The seminal vesicles are convoluted pouch-like structures lying posterior to the base of the urinary bladder, in front of the rectum. They secrete an alkaline viscous fluid co … ntaining fructose, prostaglandins and fibrinogen that make up about 60% of the fluid volume of semen. <P> Seminal gland. The seminal gland, more commonly referred to as the seminal vesicle, holds the liquid that mixes with sperm to form semen. Semen combines fluid elements from the epididymis, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and vas deferens. Each body part plays a key role in semen production. The fluids help the sperm swim towards the egg and keep the sperm nourished during the transit process <P> The seminal vesicles are a pair of glands that are positioned below the urinary bladder and lateral to the vas deferens. Each vesicle consists of a single tube folded and coiled on itself, with occasional diverticula in its wall. The seminal vesicles develop as one of three structures of the male reproductive system that develops at the junction between the urethra and vas deferens. Both the urethra and vas deferens are derived from the mesonephric ducts, structures that develop from mesoderm. <P> Each vesicle forms as an outpocketing of the wall of the ampulla of one vas deferens. The seminal vesicles develop as one of three structures of the male reproductive system that develops at the junction between the urethra and vas deferens. Both the urethra and vas deferens are derived from the mesonephric ducts, structures that develop from mesoderm. <P> Seminal vesicle: One of two structures that are about 5 cm long and are located behind the bladder and above the prostate gland. The seminal vesicles contribute fluid to the ejaculate.

what temperature does aluminium burn at
<P> The melting point for aluminum foil is 660 C or 1220 F (The melting point of the foil, which is about 97% aluminum) is the same as that of aluminum. if it's made of aluminum … it melts at 660oC regardless of size or shape, but the aluminum oxide anodizing will melt at about 2000oC See the link below. Aluminum burns at over 4,100 K (6920°F), which is why it is used as a component of some solid rocket fuels. When it burns, it produces Al2O3 (alumina). Wow! <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. Thermate-TH3 is a mixture of thermite and pyrotechnic additives which have been found to be superior to standard thermite for incendiary purposes. Its composition by weight is generally about 68.7% thermite, 29.0% barium nitrate, 2.0% sulfur, and 0.3% of a binder (such as PBAN). <P> This experiment will peer into the element Aluminum to see whether it will burn or melt when exposed to a flame. Hypothesis: The hypothesis of this experiment is that Aluminum will melt when exposed to flames. This judgement is based on the usual behavior of metals that are exposed to flame. <P> Aluminum burns at over 4,100 K (6920°F), which is why it is used as a component of some solid rocket fuels. When it burns, it produces Al2O3 (alumina). Wow! You can rea … lly get some high exhaust gas velocity (and thrust) this way! Answer by Boxerdave1085. Confidence votes 19. I do not think it can burn. the show you see as burning-like (it shrinks dramatically) is due to residual tensions into the material, following to calendering process used to make it as a foil. <P> Therefore when aluminium is exposed to a prolonged fire environment it will begin to melt (not burn), provided that the metal's temperature passes the melting point. The same set of standards gives aluminium high marks on the fire resistance versus spreading scale. It is extremely useful to examine aluminium's behaviour under fire conditions, with reference to its relevant properties. Most Aluminium alloys have a melting point between 600 and 660 degrees Celsius. <P> At what temperature does aluminum turn into a solid? The scientific standard typically refers to the state change you refer to in terms of going up, so you need to know the melting point of aluminum to know when it becomes solid … , which is 933.47 Kelvin (660.32°C or 1220.58°F). Aluminum burns at over 4,100 K (6920°F), which is why it is used as a component of some solid rocket fuels. When it burns, it produces Al2O3 (alumina). Wow! <P> The melting temperature of aluminum foil is 660 degrees Celsius (1,220 degrees Fahrenheit) at standard pressure, so it won’t melt with temperatures encountered in a standard household oven. The physical form of the aluminum, whether powder, blocks, foil or some other shape, does not affect the melting point as long as the metal is relatively pure; melting point is an intrinsic property of the metal, but shape is not. <P> The melting point for aluminum foil is 660 C or 1220 F (The melting point of the foil, which is about 97% aluminum) is the same as that of aluminum. if it's made of aluminum … it melts at 660oC regardless of size or shape, but the aluminum oxide anodizing will melt at about 2000oC See the link below.

what is magnetic therapy
<P> Practitioners of magnetic field therapy believe that interactions between the body, the earth, and other electromagnetic fields cause physical and emotional changes in humans. They also believe that the body's electromagnetic field must be in balance to maintain good health. <P> Magnetic therapy products are not meant to be sold as a substitute for traditional medicinal practices prescribed by your doctor. Magnetic jewelry or magnetic therapy products can be used as an alternative and natural approach to help resolve many pain issues, but they do not cure disease. <P> Magnetic therapy is defined as the application of magnets to the body for healing benefits. When a magnet is used for healing, it is typically referred to as a healing magnet or biomagnet. <P> Magnet therapy: Magnetic therapy, also called magnetic field therapy and bioenergy therapy, is an alternative therapy that uses magnets of varying sizes and strengths that are placed on the body to relieve pain and treat disease. <P> Magnetic therapy, more accurately termed magnetic field therapy, is the use of magnetic fields, generated by either permanent magnets or pulsed electromagnetic fields, for treatment of medical conditions. <P> As a form of treatment, magnetic therapy is most often used to enhance healing from injuries and wounds or to treat chronic conditions such as tendonitis, degenerative joint disease, hip dysplasia, vertebral disease, and lameness caused by other musculoskeletal or neurologic conditions. <P> Magnetic Therapy offers patients an alternative type of healing method. It works by using magnets on the painful areas of the body. Through the magnets, magneto static fields are produced and these have the effects of easing pain as well as producing other significant health benefits. <P> Magnetic therapy and magnetic jewelry is used as an alternative treatment to help relieve pain and increase the body’s natural healing process. It is believed that when magnetic therapy is applied it can improve the blood flow by reducing inflammation and enhancing the body’s <P> Magnetic field therapy uses magnets to maintain health and treat illness. The human body and the earth naturally produce electric and magnetic fields. Electromagnetic fields also can be technologically produced, such as radio and television waves. <P> Magnetic therapy is an alternative medical practice that uses static (i.e. unmoving) magnets to alleviate pain and other health concerns. So-called therapeutic magnets are typically integrated into bracelets, rings, or shoe inserts, though therapeutic magnetic mattresses and clothing are also on the market.
It is an alternative therapy that uses magnets of varying sizes and strengths that are placed on the body to relieve pain and treat disease.

cost per square meter extension
<P> The price per square metre also depends on the size of the property. There are basic costs that don't increase too much with size and hence the cost per square metre will decrease as the floor area increases. The price for a home extension depends on several factors. 1 Where you are in the country. <P> You can expect to pay around £500 - £1650 per metre square for a single storey extension. A double storey extension can cost between £500 - £1500 per meter square. Planning costs can cost between £1000 - £27000, although the average price is around £5100. Basic conservatories cost around £500 per square metre to supply and fit. If the ground needs levelling this price will increase. <P> Most builders can give you an idea of what your extension will cost per square foot or metre. For example, a basic single storey extension would typically cost around £1,000 per square metre but it could be up to £1,600 or more for a premium two storey extension. So a 3 x 5 metre extension would cost £15,000 and up to £50,000 for a two storey, more premium extension. These costs are just to create a room, they would not typically include the cost of a kitchen or bathroom. <P> Extensions are more expensive: RICS gives a guide cost of between £1,260 and £1,680 per square metre for an extension with plastered finish. So a 20-square metre single-storey extension will range from £25,200 to £33,600 – before you've put down flooring or installed a kitchen. <P> It would not be unreasonable to target costs for the total build of an Extension, excluding professional fees and local authority charges, at around £1,200 to £1,800 per square metre, i.e. say £110 to £170 per square foot.
Between £1,260 and £1,680
what is angina
<P> Angina (an-JI-nuh or AN-juh-nuh) is chest pain or discomfort that occurs if an area of your heart muscle doesn't get enough oxygen-rich blood. Angina may feel like pressure or squeezing in your chest. The pain also can occur in your shoulders, arms, neck, jaw, or back. Angina pain may even feel like indigestion. Angina isn't a disease; it's a symptom of an underlying heart problem. Angina usually is a symptom of coronary heart disease (CHD) <P> Pain and discomfort are the main symptoms of angina. Angina often is described as pressure, squeezing, burning, or tightness in the chest. The pain or discomfort usually starts behind the breastbone. Pain from angina also can occur in the arms, shoulders, neck, jaw, throat, or back. <P> Learn more: Angina is chest pain or discomfort caused when your heart muscle doesn't get enough oxygen-rich blood. It may feel like pressure or squeezing in your chest. The discomfort also can occur in your shoulders, arms, neck, jaw, or back. Angina pain may even feel like indigestion. But, angina is not a disease. <P> Angina pectoris is the medical term for chest pain or discomfort due to coronary heart disease. It occurs when the heart muscle doesn't get as much blood as it needs. This usually happens because one or more of the heart's arteries is narrowed or blocked, also called ischemia. <P> Angina, or angina pectoris, is a medical term for the symptoms caused by the heart not getting enough oxygen from the arteries that supply the heart with blood. When these arteries become narrowed or blocked over time, it is called coronary artery disease (CAD) , and it can cause angina. <P> Knowledge center. Angina-or angina pectoris (Latin for squeezing of the chest) - is chest pain, discomfort, or tightness that occurs when an area of the heart muscle is receiving decreased blood oxygen supply. It is not a disease itself, but rather a symptom of coronary artery disease, the most common type of heart disease. <P> Angina pectoris, commonly known as angina, is the sensation of chest pain, pressure, or squeezing, often due to ischemia of the heart muscle from obstruction or spasm of the coronary arteries. <P> Stable angina is the most common form of angina, and it typically occurs with exertion and goes away with rest. If chest discomfort is a new symptom for you, it's important to see your doctor to find out what's causing your chest pain and to get proper treatment. <P> Stable angina. Stable angina is the most common type of angina and what most people mean when they refer to angina. People with stable angina have angina symptoms on a regular basis and the symptoms are somewhat predictable (for example, walking up a flight of steps causes chest pain). A. Angina (angina pectoris-Latin for squeezing of the chest) is chest discomfort that occurs when there is a decreased blood oxygen supply to an area of the heart muscle. In most cases, the lack of blood supply is due to a narrowing of the coronary arteries as a result of arteriosclerosis. Angina may be felt as:
It is the sensation of chest pain, pressure, or squeezing, often due to ischemia of the heart muscle from obstruction or spasm of the coronary arteries.

LINK / CITE ADD TO WORD LIST. noun. The endoplasmic reticulum is defined as a series of folded membranes in the cells which are associated with protein synthesis, storage and the movement of cellular materials. An example of the endoplasmic reticulum is the place that steroids are stored in the cells for later use <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. 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. <P> Definition of ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. : a system of interconnected vesicular and lamellar cytoplasmic membranes that functions especially in the transport of materials within the cell and that is studded with ribosomes in some places — see cell illustration.

While the function of the nucleus is to act as the cell brain, the ER functions as a manufacturing and packaging system. It works closely with the Golgi apparatus, ribososmes, mRNA, and tRNA. Structurally, the endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes found throughout the cell and connected to the nucleus. The membranes are slightly different from cell to cell and a cell’s function determines the size and structure of the ER.

what is niche marketing
<P> Your niche is the service you specialise in offering to your target market. For example various design businesses can have creative freelancers as their client group: a design company can offer them web design and app development, another company can offer them branding advice or photography. However, it is important to understand that there is a difference between your niche and your target market: Your target market is the specific group of people you work for e.g. women in the City, dog owners, creative female freelancers, ceramic collectors, brides to be, outdoor galleries. <P> Niche Marketing is all about finding a smaller segment of a market and creating a product or a service for that market. In general a niche is a very targeted and focused market. An example of a market is pets, whereas an example of a niche market could be tropical aquarium fish or Golden Retriever dogs. Niche marketing is a great way to get started making money online, particularly if you focus in on a niche that you are interested or knowledgeable in. <P> The word niche comes from a French word that means to nest. Niche marketing is targeting a product or service to a small portion of a market that is not being readily served by the mainstream product or service marketers. Nearly every business—fast food chains, convenience stores, even Wal-Mart was begun to fill perceived voids in the market place. <P> What Is Niche Marketing. Niche Marketing can refer to both marketing and business choice. In and of itself, niche marketing refers to finding a segment of the general market for a service or product line. One then develops a solution for the needs of that segment and then markets to it to get the word out. Let s take a look at an example using one of the biggest companies in the world. You will hear over and over that the quickest way to find success on the net is niche marketing. I second this advice. <P> Image (c) Eileen Bach / Getty Images. Definition: A niche market is a focused, targetable portion of a market. By definition, then, a business that focuses on a niche market is addressing a need for a product or service that is not being addressed by mainstream providers. You can think of a niche market as a narrowly defined group of potential customers. <P> Niche marketing is sometimes a misunderstood term. Basically, niche marketing refers to competing within a narrowly defined market segment with a specialized offering. In essence, the firm virtually becomes a ‘big fish in a small pond’. <P> You can try for niche marketing if you think that you really need your product to go out to one small demographic. 7 people found this helpful. Me and my business partner practiced niche marketing and concentrated all of our efforts on a small percentage of the population. 8 people found this helpful. You may want to target a specific group of people for your product by using a specialized niche marketing plan. Concentrating all marketing efforts on a small but specific and well defined segment of the population. Niches do not 'exist' but are 'created' by identifying needs, wants, and requirements that are being addressed poorly or not at all by other firms, and developing and delivering goods or services to satisfy them.
A niche market is the subset of the market on which a specific product is focused.The market niche defines the product features aimed at satisfying specific market needs, as well as the price range, production quality and the demographics that is intended to impact.It is also a small market segment.
what is a building automation system

what is neuroglia
<P> Neuroglia are helper cells in the nervous system. They produce products that help support and protect the neurons so they can do their work transmitting impulses, also called action potentials. <P> Neuroglia is the collective term for glial cells, specialized cells that protect and regulate the functioning of neural cells in the brain. In addition to promoting electrical communication between nerve synapses, some of these cells physically protect neural cells by surrounding them to form an insulating barrier. Brain size also determines the number of cerebral neuroglia. Therefore, different species of animals contain varying concentrations of glial cells. The brain of a fruit fly, for example, is composed of 24 percent glia, compared to 90 percent in a human and 97 percent in an elephant. <P> Noun. 1. neuroglia-sustentacular tissue that surrounds and supports neurons in the central nervous system; glial and neural cells together compose the tissue of the central nervous system. glia. interstitial tissue-tissue between the cells of a structure or part in plant or animal. n. The supportive tissue of the nervous system, including the network of branched cells in the central nervous system (astrocytes, microglia, and oligodendrocytes) and the supporting cells of the peripheral nervous system (Schwann cells and satellite cells). Also called glia <P> Neuroglia are non-neuronal cells of the nervous system. It is also called glial cells or glia, which is a Greek work meaning glue. The name comes from what appears to be the function of neuroglia, which is to act as a glue to neurons. Neuroglia are seen in nervous tissues as cells surrounding the neurons. Definition. noun, plural: neuroglia. A cell that surrounds a nerve cell that is responsible for providing mechanical and physical support, supplying nutrients and oxygen to the neuron, providing electrical insulation between neurons, and maintaining homeostasis. <P> Neuroglia. Your central and peripheral nervous systems depend on certain cells that are sort of the unsung heroes in the nervous system. These cells that form myelin, protect, support, and maintain equilibrium in your nervous system are called glial cells. Another type of glial cell in the central nervous system are oligodendrocytes, which creates myelin sheaths around the axons of neurons. The myelin sheath helps your neurons conduct signals more quickly between one another and other cells. Finally, star-shaped glial cells in the CNS are collectively known as astrocytes. <P> • NEUROGLIA (noun). The noun NEUROGLIA has 1 sense: 1. sustentacular tissue that surrounds and supports neurons in the central nervous system; glial and neural cells together compose the tissue of the central nervous system. Familiarity information: NEUROGLIA used as a noun is very rare. Dictionary entry details. <P> neuroglia. the supporting structure of nervous tissue, consisting, in the central nervous system, of astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and microglia; called also glia. adj., adj neurog´lial. (nū-rog'lē-ă), This word is grammatically singular. Avoid the mispronunciation neurogli'a. Etymology: Gk, neuron + glia, glue. the supporting or nonneuronal tissue cells of the central and peripheral nervous system. They perform the less specialized functions of the nerve network. Kinds of neuroglia include astrocytes, oligodendroglia, and microglia. Compare neuron. neuroglial, adj

what is generation x
<P> Generation X, commonly abbreviated to Gen X, is the generation born after the Western Post–World War II baby boom. Demographers and commentators use birth dates ranging from the early 1960s to the early 1980s. In 2011 The Generation X Report (based on annual surveys used in the Longitudinal Study of today's adults) found Gen Xers, defined in the report as people born between 1961 and 1981, to be highly educated, active, balanced, happy and family oriented. <P> Generation X is the term often applied to the generation born between 1964 and 1981, right after the end of the post-World War II baby boom (1946-1964) that gave boomers their name. Generation X is often abbreviated as Gen X, and members of Generation X are commonly referred to as Gen Xers. For a time, Generation X was called the baby bust generation, because of the declining birth rate that started in 1964, officially ending the post-war baby boom. What Distinguishes Generation X. <P> Generation X by broadest definition includes those individuals born between 1961 and 1981. The collective persona of Gen Xers is frequently debated and discussed among academicians and marketing experts worldwide. It traditionally applies to North Americans (U.S and Canada); Australia, and various European countries. In this article you’ll learn the definition of Generation X and discover its years, size and characteristics including major, defining events like divorce, latchkey kids, the Berlin Wall and the Cold War. You’ll also learn about cultural touchstones like big hair and John Hughes films. <P> Generation X refers to the generation of people that were born after the generation of “baby boomers” which happened after World War II. It was back in the early part of the 1950s that “Generation X” was first coined by Cappa to describe young people in pictures after World War II. After which, the term was used to refer to the young generation who seemed to have no identity, hence the “X” in the term. <P> The term Generation X was coined by the Magnum photographer Robert Capa in the early 1950s. He used it later as a title for a photo-essay about young men and women growing up immediately after the Second World War. The project first appeared in Picture Post (UK) and Holiday (US) in 1953. In 2011 The Generation X Report (based on annual surveys used in the Longitudinal Study of today's adults) found Gen Xers, defined in the report as people born between 1961 and 1981, to be highly educated, active, balanced, happy and family oriented. <P> Generation X -- Noun -- The generation of children born between 1965-1975 who were largely raised by pre-baby-boomer parents. Core attributes are cynicism, pragmatism and expectation that they will be given the shaft by the larger baby boomer cohort that precedes them. <P> Definition. The generation of people born during the 1980s and early 1990s. The name is based on Generation X, the generation that preceded them. Members of Generation Y are often referred to as “echo boomers” because they are the children of parents born during the baby boom (the “baby boomers”). <P> Millennials (also known as the Millennial Generation or Generation Y) are the demographic cohort following Generation X. There are no precise dates when the generation starts and ends; most researchers and commentators use birth years ranging from the early 1980s to the early 2000s. <P> Generation Y: Generation Y. You guessed it, Generation Y came after Generation X. Generation Y covers people born between the 1980’s and the year 2000, and these individuals are sometimes referred to as Gen Y, the Millennial Generation, or simply Millennials. Generation Z: Generation Z is the generation of children born after the Year 2000. They are the children of Generation X and Generation Y. To be fair we don’t know a whole lot about the character traits of Generation Z, because they haven’t been on the earth for very long yet.

what does lactose do
<P> Lactase is an enzyme produced by many organisms. It is located in the brush border of the small intestine of humans and other mammals. Lactase is essential to the complete digestion of whole milk; it breaks down lactose, a sugar which gives milk its sweetness. Lacking lactase, a person consuming dairy products may experience the symptoms of lactose intolerance. The optimum temperature for human lactase is about 37°C for its activity and has an optimum pH of 6. In metabolism, the β -glycosidic bond in D-lactose is hydrolyzed to form D-galactose and D-glucose, which can be absorbed through the intestinal walls and into the bloodstream. <P> People who are lactose intolerant have trouble digesting the milk sugar lactose. Lactase is an enzyme that splits the milk sugar lactose, to produce the sugars glucose and galactose. 1 For lactose intolerance: the typical dose of lactase is 6000-9000 IU tablets chewed and swallowed at the start of a meal that contains lactose. 2 2000 IU of the solution added to 500 mL of milk immediately before drinking it has also been used. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Lactose is a disaccharide sugar derived from galactose and glucose that is found in milk. Lactose makes up around 2–8% of milk (by weight), although the amount varies among species and individuals, and milk with a reduced amount of lactose also exists. Lactose is a disaccharide derived from the condensation of galactose and glucose, which form a β-1→4 glycosidic linkage. Its systematic name is β-. <P> Lactose intolerance means the body cannot easily digest lactose, a type of natural sugar found in milk and dairy products. This is not the same thing as a food allergy to milk. A big challenge for people who are lactose-intolerant is learning how to eat to avoid discomfort and to get enough calcium for healthy bones. Lactose intolerance occurs when the small intestine does not make enough of an enzyme called lactase. Your body needs lactase to break down, or digest, lactose. <P> Overview. Your sensitivity to lactose in dairy doesn´t have to put a crimp in your lifestyle if you know how to manage it. That´s what we´re here to help you do. LACTAID ® Dairy Products allow people to enjoy their favorite dairy foods because the lactose is already broken down in the products. LACTAID ® Dietary Supplements provide the lactase you need to break down the lactose in dairy foods. We want you to enjoy the foods you love. <P> The LCT gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called lactase. This enzyme helps to digest lactose, a sugar found in milk and other dairy products. Lactase is produced by cells that line the walls of the small intestine. <P> Lactose is a type of sugar found in milk and other milk products. In the body, lactose is broken down with the aid of an enzyme called lactase. However, some people are lactose-intolerant because they do not have enough of the enzyme, which causes them to experience side effects like gas, bloating and diarrhea after taking milk products. Find alternatives for butter if you have trouble even with tiny amounts of lactose. Try margarine products that are lactose-free. These are often made from plant-based oils, which do not contain lactose. Read labels carefully and watch for lactose-free or dairy-free labels. <P> Answer by Highkicker. Confidence votes 1.0K. Lactase is an enzyme which breaks down lactose, a sugar found in milk and other dairy products. Many people are lactose intolerant, because they don't produce sufficient lactase in their digestive tract to break down the lactose, so the bowels become irritated etc. Lactase is a digestive enzyme that is produced by the small intestine.

It began as a skirmish but by its end involved 160,000 Americans. <P> Introduction. The Battle of Gettysburg, fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, is considered the most important engagement of the American Civil War. After a great victory over Union forces at Chancellorsville, General Robert E.

frozen temperature range
<P> 1 If an appliance thermometer was kept in the freezer, check the temperature when the power comes back on. 2 If the freezer thermometer reads 40°F or below, the food is safe and may be refrozen. 3 If a thermometer has not been kept in the freezer, check each package of food to determine its safety. 1 Also, when putting food away, don't crowd the refrigerator or freezer so tightly that air can't circulate. 2 Keep your appliances at the proper temperatures. 3 Keep the refrigerator temperature at or below 40° F (4° C). 4 The freezer temperature should be 0° F (-18° C). 5 Check temperatures periodically. <P> For example, agar displays a hysteresis in its melting and freezing temperatures. It melts at 85 °C (185 °F) and solidifies from 31 °C to 40 °C (89.6 °F to 104 °F). Freezing, or solidification, is a phase transition in which a liquid turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered below its freezing point. For most substances, the melting and freezing points are the same temperature; however, certain substances possess differing solid–liquid transition temperatures. <P> A refrigerator maintains a temperature a few degrees above the freezing point of water. Optimum temperature range for perishable food storage is 3 to 5 °C (37 to 41 °F). <P> Freezer Storage. Keep your freezer at zero degrees (0°) or below to maintain the quality of frozen foods. Most foods will maintain good quality longer if the freezer temperature is -10 to -20°F. At temperatures between 0 and 32°F, food deteriorates more rapidly. Fluctuating temperatures, such as those in self-defrosting freezers, also may damage food quality. If your freezer does not have a built-in thermometer, check the temperature frequently. 1 One easy way to estimate the freezer's temperature is to check the consistency of ice cream stored inside the compartment. 2 If the ice cream is not brick-hard, the temperature of your freezer is too warm. <P> The ideal freezer temperature is 0 Fahrenheit (-18 Celsius) for storing food. And -10 Fahrenheit (-23 Celsius) is recommended when freezing food. The faster food freezes the smaller the ice crystals. The smaller the ice crystals the smaller the change in texture and better quality when thawed. <P> 1 Keep the refrigerator temperature at or below 40° F (4° C). 2 The freezer temperature should be 0° F (-18° C). 3 Check temperatures periodically. 4 Appliance thermometers are the best way of knowing these temperatures and are generally inexpensive. 1 Also, when putting food away, don't crowd the refrigerator or freezer so tightly that air can't circulate. 2 Keep your appliances at the proper temperatures. 3 Keep the refrigerator temperature at or below 40° F (4° C). 4 The freezer temperature should be 0° F (-18° C). 5 Check temperatures periodically. <P> Any refrigerator or freezer used for vaccine storage must maintain the required temperature range year-round, be large enough to hold the year's largest inventory, and be dedicated to storage of biologics (i.e., food or beverages should not be stored in vaccine storage units). An estimated 17%--37% of providers expose vaccines to improper storage temperatures, and refrigerator temperatures are more commonly kept too cold than too warm (2,3). Freezing temperatures can irreversibly reduce the potency of vaccines required to be stored at 35°F--46°F (2°C--8°C).

The biceps includes a “short head” and a “long head” that work as a single muscle. The biceps is attached to the arm bones by tough connective tissues called tendons. The tendons that connect the biceps muscle to the shoulder joint in two places are called the proximal biceps tendons. The tendon that attaches the biceps muscle to the forearm bones (radius and ulna) is called the distal biceps tendon <P> Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: No. Only skeletal muscles are connected to bones. They don't attach directly to the bones, but are attached by tendons that emerge at the ends of the muscle groups or individual muscles. Smooth muscles are organ muscles, and cardiac muscle is specialized conductive muscle of the heart <P> Our bodies have different types of tissues that are used to connect all of our different parts. Bones are connected to other bones by special tissues called ligaments.. But when bones are connected to muscles, the special tissues are called tendons.. Tendons are very strong. When a muscle pulls, they pull too and they can move our bones. We have tendons in many parts of our bodies: wrists, elbows, thumbs, shoulders, knees, head, legs, and heels. Tendons almost always connect bone to muscle, but sometimes they connect muscle to other things, like an eyeball! 1 Share. <P> Tendons and Muscles.

It is seen most frequently in schizophrenia. See also depersonalization. <P> Depersonalization, (also called derealization), is one of the many symptoms of a panic attack. Of all the panic symptoms, it's probably the hardest to describe, or even recognize as a symptom. For this reason, it can be quite disturbing to people who experience it, even though it is completely harmless. People have a variety of reactions to depersonalization, but a common theme is that they are losing touch with reality, and they fear they will lose it for good. Here are some descriptions of the derealization experience I have received from readers and patients. <P> In this article. Depersonalization disorder is marked by periods of feeling disconnected or detached from one's body and thoughts (depersonalization). The disorder is sometimes described as feeling like you are observing yourself from outside your body or like being in a dream. Depersonalization disorder is one of a group of conditions called dissociative disorders. Dissociative disorders are mental illnesses that involve disruptions or breakdowns of memory, consciousness, awareness, identity, and/or perception. <P> Derealization can also be a symptom of severe sleep disorders, and mental disorders like depersonalization disorder, borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, dissociative identity disorder, and anxiety disorders. The detachment of derealization can be described as an immaterial substance that separates a person from the outside world, such as a sensory fog, pane of glass, or veil. <P> Derealization or derealisation (sometimes abbreviated as DR) is an alteration in the perception or experience of the external world so that it seems unreal.

types of pathogenic microorganisms in food
<P> Foodborne illness (also foodborne disease and colloquially referred to as food poisoning) is any illness resulting from the food spoilage of contaminated food, pathogenic bacteria, viruses, or parasites that contaminate food, as well as chemical or natural toxins such as poisonous mushrooms. <P> For example, some bacteria are used beneficially in making cheese and yogurt. Bacteria that cause disease are called “pathogens.” When certain pathogens enter the food supply, they can cause food-borne illness. Only a few types cause millions of cases of food-borne illness each year. Ironically, most cases of food-borne illness can be prevented. Food-borne illness often shows itself as flu-like symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or fever, so many people may not recognize the illness is caused by bacteria or other pathogens on food. Thousands of types of bacteria are naturally present in our environment. Not all bacteria cause disease in humans <P> Invasion and multiplication of pathogenic microorganisms in the body is called an infection. When we are infected by pathogens we become sick, which means that our bodies stop functioning properly. Infectious agents, such as bacteria, a virus, fungi or protozoa cause communicable diseases. Introduction. The previous chapter mentioned that different types of microorganisms interact with human bodies on a regular basis. They can be harmless, harmful or beneficial. Harmful microorganims are also called pathogenic. This chapter looks at disease-causing bacteria and viruses. <P> 1 Most of these diseases are infections, caused by a variety of bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can be foodborne. 2 Other diseases are poisonings, caused by harmful toxins or chemicals that have contaminated the food, for example, poisonous mushrooms. <P> The world of foodborne microbes contains a mix of approximately 250 different types of bacteria, viruses, parasites, molds, and algae that are known to cause disease in humans and are therefore called foodborne pathogens. Bacteria are the largest group of problematic foodborne pathogens by far. They are small, one-celled microbes that come in many shapes and are capable of reproducing themselves. Typical cell shapes include spherical (cocci), rod-shaped (bacilli), and curved or comma-shaped (spirillar). <P> To avoid potential problems in foods, it is very important to control or eliminate these microorganisms in food products. Pathogenic microorganisms can be transmitted to humans by a number of routes. Diseases which result from pathogenic microorganisms are of two types: infection and intoxication. When enough salt or sugar is added to a food, the water activity will be lowered to a level that will prevent microorganisms from growing. 1 In general, bacterial glowth is inhibited by the addition of 5-15% salt. 2 To inhibit mold growth, 65-70% sugar must be added. <P> Bacteria, yeasts, and mold are microorganisms associated with foods. The individual microorganism cannot be seen without the aid of a microscope. The size of these microorganisms are measured in microns (1 micron is 1/1000 of a millimeter or U25,40A of an inch). When enough salt or sugar is added to a food, the water activity will be lowered to a level that will prevent microorganisms from growing. 1 In general, bacterial glowth is inhibited by the addition of 5-15% salt. 2 To inhibit mold growth, 65-70% sugar must be added. <P> Although most bacteria are harmless or often beneficial, several are pathogenic. One of the bacterial diseases with the highest disease burden is tuberculosis, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which kills about 2 million people a year, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa. Some pathogenic bacteria cause disease under certain conditions, such entry through the skin via a cut, through sexual activity or an compromised immune function. Streptococcus and Staphylococcus are part of the normal skin microbiota and typically reside on healthy skin or in the nasopharangeal region. <P> When it comes to the food supply, pathogenic organisms can be introduced in a number of different ways. Common vectors include water, soil, waste or fecal matter, humans and animals. The ubiquity of pathogenic organisms leaves us open to developing foodborne illness, chronic conditions or deadly diseases. For instance, not all strains of a species of bacteria are not pathogenic organisms. For instance, there are strains of the broader Salmonella species that would not harm a person, while there are many other strains that are pathogenic organisms and can cause massive damage.

This makes it difficult for people following a strict vegetarian diet to get the necessary amount of vitamin B12. <P> They found that 92% of the vegans they studied -- those who ate the strictest vegetarian diet, which shuns all animal products, including milk and eggs -- had vitamin B12 deficiency. But two in three people who followed a vegetarian diet that included milk and eggs as their only animal foods also were deficient. <P> Vitamin B 12 :A Simple Solution. The vegan diet, rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes, provides an abundance of vitamins and minerals to meet one’s nutritional needs. However, there is one vitamin, called vitamin B 12, which does present a genuine nutritional issue, although one that is easily solved. <P> Vegetarians need to make sure they get enough iron and vitamin B12, and vegans enough calcium, iron and vitamin B12. Women are thought to be at particular risk of iron deficiency, including those on a vegetarian or vegan diet. <P> Vitamin A is a fat soluble vitamin, and therefore, needs to be consumed with fat in order to have optimal absorption. High vitamin A foods include sweet potatoes, carrots, dark leafy greens, winter squashes, lettuce, dried apricots, cantaloupe, bell peppers, fish, liver, and tropical fruits. The current daily value for Vitamin A is 5000 international units (IU). <P> A meatless diet can be healthy, but vegetarians -- especially vegans -- need to make sure they're getting enough vitamin B12, calcium, iron, and zinc. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics warns of the risk of vitamin B12 deficiencies in vegetarians and vegans. Vitamin B12 is found naturally only in animal products. <P> Vegans and ovo-vegetarians, who eat eggs but not dairy, need to find foods (dark green vegetables, tofu, edamame, soy nuts, butternut squash) or supplements that compensate for the missing calcium from their diets. Absorbable calcium is critical to protect against osteoporosis, or thinning bones.

brain anomaly definition
<P> What is a Developmental Venous Anomaly (DVA)? DVA s, also known as venous angiomas, are a variation of normal brain anatomy and are found in up to 5% of people. They are blood vessels that provide a channel for blood to leave the brain. Looking through a microscope, they appear largely normal. It is important to recognize that DVAs are a variation in the normal anatomic pattern of blood flow. The blood vessels in a DVA are important as they help blood flow away from the brain and back to the heart. <P> Other types of congenital brain defects develop within the structure of the brain. 1 Hydrocephalus, or fluid on the brain, is an excessive buildup of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) due to impaired circulation of the CSF. 2 When there is excess fluid, it can put too much pressure on the brain. The brain begins to form in the first month after conception. Development of the brain begins from a small, special plate of cells on the surface of the embryo. These cells grow and form the different regions of the brain. When this process is disturbed, it can cause structural defects in the brain and skull. <P> Many different types of brain defects are caused by improper closure of this neural tube. One such congenital brain anomaly, anencephaly (literally without brain) results when the topmost portion of the tube fails to close and the brain does not develop. Anencephaly is the most common severe malformation seen in stillborn births. It is about four times more common in females than males. Congenital brain defects may have genetic, infectious, toxic, or traumatic causes. In most cases, no certain cause can be identified. GENETIC CAUSES Some brain defects are caused by trisomy, the inclusion of a third copy of a chromosome normally occurring in pairs. <P> About 3% of newborns have a major physical anomaly, meaning a physical anomaly that has cosmetic or functional significance. Physical congenital abnormalities are the leading cause of infant mortality in the United States, accounting for more than 20% of all infant deaths. 1 A congenital malformation is a congenital physical anomaly that is deleterious, i.e. a structural defect perceived as a problem. 2 A typical combination of malformations affecting more than one body part is referred to as a malformation syndrome. <P> Developmental venous anomaly. Dr Henry Knipe ◉ and Dr Donna D'Souza et al. Developmental venous anomaly (DVA) , also known as cerebral venous angioma, is a congenital malformation of veins which drain normal brain. They were thought to be rare before cross-sectional imaging but are now recognised as being the most common cerebral vascular malformation, accounting for ~55% of all such lesions. SWI is the preferred sequence in venous anomalies and proved to have better detectability of venous structures than conventional T2*-weighted imaging. Signals on SWI are not compromised by low-velocity venous flow. Therefore, SWI has successfully demonstrated low-flow vascular formations such as DVA. <P> Congenital brain defects are abnormalities in the brain that are present at birth. The defects typically affect the bone and soft tissue in the head and spine. There are many different types of these malformations. They can vary greatly from mild to severe conditions. The brain begins to form in the first month after conception. Development of the brain begins from a small, special plate of cells on the surface of the embryo. These cells grow and form the different regions of the brain. When this process is disturbed, it can cause structural defects in the brain and skull. <P> Anomaly: Any deviation from normal, out of the ordinary. In medicine, an anomaly is usually something that is abnormal at birth. <P> Congenital disorder, also known as congenital disease, birth defect or anomaly, is a condition existing at or before birth regardless of cause. 1 A congenital malformation is a congenital physical anomaly that is deleterious, i.e. a structural defect perceived as a problem. 2 A typical combination of malformations affecting more than one body part is referred to as a malformation syndrome. <P> A vascular anomaly is a localized defect in blood vessels that can affect each part of the vasculature (capillaries, arteries, veins, lymphatics or a combination of these). A vascular anomaly is a kind of birthmark caused by a disorder of the vascular development, although it is not always present at birth. <P> Developmental Venous Anomalies. A developmental venous anomaly (DVA) is an arrangement of small blood vessels that may look like the spokes of a wheel that drain into a larger central vein. DVAs also may be referred to as venous angiomas.
The defects typically affect the bone and soft tissue in the head and spine. There are many different types of these malformations.They can vary greatly from mild to severe conditions.
types of salmon
<P> There are 7 types of Salmon. Chinook. Chinook salmon are the most well known type of salmon in North America. Also known as King salmon, they are the largest of the salmon species. Americans often refer to Chinook as “Kings” because they are the “King” of salmon. Read more about Chinook…. Coho. They are the most plentiful of the salmon species. Read more about Pink salmon…. Atlantic Salmon. Wild Atlantic salmon are on the east coast of North America, the Great Lakes as well as in Europe. Atlantic salmon are the most durable of the salmon species making them the prime salmon to put in “farms”. <P> This is wild salmon season: salmon are fished in Alaska and the Pacific coast from May to August. The season usually opens with King salmon (also known as Chinook). As the name implies, it is the largest of the pacific salmon species (typically 11-18 pounds) and has the highest oil and healthy omega-3 content. It is prized for its buttery flavor and texture. <P> Salmon are native to tributaries of the North Atlantic (genus Salmo) and Pacific Ocean (genus Oncorhynchus). Many species of salmon have been introduced into non-native environments such as the Great Lakes of North America and Patagonia in South America. Salmon are intensively produced in aquaculture in many parts of the world. In the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, salmon are keystone species, supporting wildlife such as birds, bears and otters. The bodies of salmon represent a transfer of nutrients from the ocean, rich in nitrogen, sulfur, carbon and phosphorus, to the forest ecosystem. <P> 1 Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) is also known in the USA as King or Blackmouth Salmon, and as Spring Salmon in British Columbia. 2 Chinook are the largest of all Pacific salmon, frequently exceeding 30 lb (14 kg). 3 The name Tyee means Chinook over 30 pounds in British Columbia. Confidence votes 115. There are, in part, seven different kinds of salmon. Salmon are a part of the family Salmonidae, and many of the fish of this family are known as 'trout', which branches your question out even further. <P> Salmon /ˈsaemən/ ˈsæmən is the common name for several species of fish in the Family. Salmonidae other fish in the same family include, trout, char grayling and. Whitefish salmon are native to tributaries of The North (atlantic Genus) salmo And Pacific (ocean Genus). oncorhynchus In the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, salmon are keystone species, supporting wildlife such as birds, bears and otters. The bodies of salmon represent a transfer of nutrients from the ocean, rich in nitrogen, sulfur, carbon and phosphorus, to the forest ecosystem. <P> Silver Salmon is found in the Ketchikan Alaska waters!Illustration by Timothy Knepp U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The Silver Salmon is the second largest of the types of salmon found in Alaskan waters. High quality Coho salmon are often frozen whole and sold as a delicacy in Europe. Restaurant owners like Silver or Coho Salmon because the fillets are the perfect size and it keeps its orange-red color. An Average Sockeye Salmon is about 6 pounds and can grow up to 3 feet long. More typical, however, is a fish measuring about 20 to 24 inches. Once a Sockeye Salmon is caught, you are in for a wild battle of wild leaps! Sockeye Salmon are the types of salmon prized by fly fishermen. <P> King (Chinook): These are the granddaddies of salmon and one of the most prized catches. The largest of the Pacific wild salmon, kings are valued for their rich flavor and firm texture as well as their massive size (they usually do not weight less than 30 pounds; the record weight is 97 pounds).
The types of salmons are King, Sockeye, Silver, Pink, and Chum.
where is bikini atoll located
<P> Bikini Atoll is one of the 29 atolls and five islands that compose the Marshall Islands. These atolls of the Marshalls are scattered over 357,000 square miles of a lonely part of the world located north of the equator in the Pacific Ocean. They help define a geographic area referred to as Micronesia. <P> Bikini Atoll is the first World Heritage site for the Marshall Islands. The World Heritage Committee, on August 1, 2010 at its 34th session in Brazil, inscribed the Bikini Atoll Nuclear Test Site on the World Heritage List. <P> In 1954, Bikini Atoll was reactivated as a test site until the US terminated nuclear-weapon testing in the Marshall Islands in 1958. Prior to the first nuclear test in 1946, the 167 Bikinians living on Bikini Island were evacuated to neighbouring islands. By the time nuclear-weapon testing in the Marshall Islands was terminated in July 1958, twenty three nuclear-weapon tests had been conducted on Bikini Atoll over a 12-year period. <P> The Bikini Atoll is located in the Micronesian Islands in the Pacific Ocean. There are 23 islands surrounding a deep lagoon. The Bikini Atoll is significant due to its being … the site of nuclear bomb testing. <P> Bikini Bottom is located in the Pacific Ocean at the bottom of the sea, below its signature island, Bikini Atoll, found by Kevin Atalay and Jochem Pouw according to Stephen Hillenburg. <P> Bikini Atoll is located 850 kilometers northwest of Majuro on the northern fringe of the Marshall Islands and is composed of more than 23 islands and islets. Four islands (Bikini, Eneu, Nam and Enidrik) account for over 70% of the land area. <P> Background and history.
