how long does it take bald eagles to have a.young one
|
<P> Eaglets can vary in size and age. Eggs are laid a few days apart and consequently hatch in the order they were laid. Female eaglets tend to be larger than their male counterparts. Like most birds of prey, the female adult is also larger than the male. Adult eagles range from 33-35 inches long for males and 35-37 inches for females. <P> Q. About how long does it take for the bald eagle's eggs to hatch and how long until it can fly? A. It takes 35 days to hatch, then young in nest 10-12 weeks more unti lthey fledge (fly from nest). Q. How old are they before young eagles can fly? A. At 10-12 weeks, when they leave their nest. <P> Bald eagles are not actually bald; the name derives from an older meaning of white headed. The adult is mainly brown with a white head and tail. The sexes are identical in plumage, but females are about 25 percent larger than males. The beak is large and hooked. <P> The plumage of an adult bald eagle is evenly dark brown with a white head and tail. The tail is moderately long and slightly wedge-shaped. Males and females are identical in plumage coloration, but sexual dimorphism is evident in the species, in that females are 25% larger than males. <P> Description. The adult bald eagle is a striking dark brownish black bird with a white head and tail. Juvenile birds are a mottled brown with white blotches. They do not obtain the full distinctive plumage of the adults until they are four or five years old. Bills, legs, and feet are a deep yellow. <P> How long it take a bald eagle to build a nest depends on where the eagles are nesting. The bald eagle is certainly renowned for its large nests, called aeries or eyries, which are typically about five feet in diameter. But that’s average.

what are the average cost of starting a child care center oregon
|
<P> Map: The average cost for child care by state. Child care is one of the highest budget items for a family and Massachusetts is among the least affordable states with an annual cost of $16,430, according to Child Care Aware of America. The group advocates for a high quality child care system and gathers and analyzes child care data. <P> The report, Parents and the High Cost of child Care , pegs the average for a year of infant care in Oregon child care centers at $11,079, the fourth-highest in the nation. That's more than 15 percent of the median income for a two-parent family, and more than the cost of a year of college tuition and fees. Massachusetts had the most egregiously high infant child care costs, at nearly $15,000 annually. Mississippi had the most affordable infant center-based care, at about $4,600 annually. Costs were lower for older children. Child care in urban Oregon is twice as expensive as it is in rural parts of the state. <P> The average cost of center-based daycare in the United States is $11,666 per year ($972 a month), but prices range from $3,582 to $18,773 a year ($300 to $1,564 monthly), according to the National Association of Child Care Resource & Referral Agencies (NACCRRA). Nanny care costs significantly less in, say, St. Louis than in Manhattan simply because the cost of living is lower there and so are wages. And daycare – whether in a center or in someone's home – could cost double or triple per month in a relatively expensive city compared to a cheaper area. <P> 1 Assuming full-time day care for a 2 year old child on weekdays, according to Runzheimer International, the U.S. national average cost for full-time day care is $611 a month. 2 Large cities such as Boston and New York are most expensive, with average daycare costs of a little more than $1,000 a month. 1 Large cities such as Boston and New York are most expensive, with average daycare costs of a little more than $1,000 a month. 2 Contacting two KinderCares in the San Jose area about infant day care, we received quotes of $300-$330 a week, plus annual fees. <P> Parents with two children in childcare are paying more than the average price of rent in Oregon. Massachusetts had the most egregiously high infant child care costs, at nearly $15,000 annually. Mississippi had the most affordable infant center-based care, at about $4,600 annually. Costs were lower for older children. Child care in urban Oregon is twice as expensive as it is in rural parts of the state. <P> The estimated Oregon figure is close to one reported national average of $25,782 (Zill, 2011). When a child is adopted from foster care by a loving and supportive adoptive family, that family for the most part assumes private responsibility for the cost of the various supports all children need to grow and thrive. The average annual net savings for one child being adopted out of foster care is $17,636 in Oregon, and it is $15,480 nationally. In 2010, AFFEC contributed to the work of getting approximately 132 children and siblings out of foster care and into homes with permanent and loving families. <P> Well, first off, the obvious: child care is very expensive. The cost of child care greatly exceeds the cost of college tuition at a public Oregon university. For full-time infant care at a licensed center, Benton County parents shell out an average of $12,000 a year. Little Beaver’s full-time care for toddlers is $947 a month. Corvallis Montessori’s full-time care for toddlers is $9,600 a year. Growing Oaks is $1,065 a month. Two, and in unfortunate conjunction with the high cost of care, Oregon unemployment is high (7.9% as of June) and annual wages are low. Oregon’s per capita personal income in 2012 was 9% less than the national figure. <P> The least expensive states for preschool-age care in a childcare center, with costs ranging from less than $4,000 a year ($333 a month) to around $7,000 a year are Mississippi, Kentucky, Louisiana, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Idaho, West Virginia, South Carolina, and Alabama. Nanny care costs significantly less in, say, St. Louis than in Manhattan simply because the cost of living is lower there and so are wages. And daycare – whether in a center or in someone's home – could cost double or triple per month in a relatively expensive city compared to a cheaper area. <P> According to Child Care Aware of America, an organization that advocates for quality child care, the average costs for infant care typically range from around $4,800 to $16,500 a year (or $400 to $1,375 monthly), depending on where you live and the quality of the center. <P> Oregon is the least-affordable state for center-based infant care, in which its average cost is 18.6 percent of the state's median income for married couples with kids, which is $72,226. Meanwhile, the dollar cost of center-based infant care is highest in Massachusetts, where the average annual cost of center-based infant care is $16,500. Using states' median income levels, see how your state ranks according to the affordability of infant care.

what chemicals attack the ozone layer
|
<P> Over the last 30 years man-made CFCs have been the main cause of stratospheric ozone depletion. CFCs however, are not the only ozone-depleting chemicals. Other ODCs include the methylhalides, carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), carbon tetrafluoride (CF4), and the halons which contain bromine instead of chlorine. <P> One of the chemicals used that damages the ozone layer is a refrigerant gas known as R22. This gas (a hydrochlorofluorocarbon or HCFC) is one of the last remaining ozone depleting substances that is in common use. However, the use of R22 for service and maintenance is now banned. <P> Note that most of the ozone is in the lower stratosphere. The ozone layer resides at an altitude of about 12 to 15 miles (20 to 25 kilometers) above sea level. It acts as a shield by absorbing biologically active ultraviolet light (called UV-B) from the sun. <P> Most anything that makes it to the ozone layer gets destroyed, since there is a lot of high energy light available to do this. The most important one is ozone, which is destroyed by: UV-C and UV-B from the Sun. Not-fully-oxidized sulfur compounds. <P> The ozone layer is the Earth's natural sunscreen, filtering out harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. UV rays can cause damage to humans and other forms of life. Although the ozone layer is high up in the atmosphere, chemical substances used at the surface of the planet can damage it. If the ozone layer is damaged, UV rays can get through and <P> CFCs, HCFCs, and Halon: The ozone layer is destroyed by CFC's, chlorofluorocarbons, that are used as a propellant in aerosol cans, and refrigerants in older cars and refrigerators. When Chlorofluorocarbons (Freon and other CFCs) and Bromofluorocarbons (Halons) they became popular refrigerants and fire fighting agents. <P> The ozone layer is a belt of naturally occurring ozone gas that sits 9.3 to 18.6 miles (15 to 30 kilometers) above Earth and serves as a shield from the harmful ultraviolet B radiation emitted by the sun. <P> When ultraviolet light waves (UV) strike CFC* (CFCl3) molecules in the upper atmosphere, a carbon-chlorine bond breaks, producing a chlorine (Cl) atom. The chlorine atom then reacts with an ozone (O3) molecule breaking it apart and so destroying the ozone. <P> Ozone Depleting Chemicals CFCs The destruction of ozone is accelerated by certain trace gases containing nitrogen, hydrogen, bromine, and chlorine. These are referred to as ozone depletion chemicals.

what are marshmallow plants
|
<P> Plants are hardy to about -25°c[187]. Marsh mallow is often cultivated in the herb garden, as a culinary and medicinal herb as well as for ornament[61]. Its roots were at one time the source of the sweet 'marsh mallow', but this sweet is now made without using the plant[4]. <P> MARSHMALLOW Overview Information. Marshmallow is a plant. The leaves and the root are used to make medicine. Don’t confuse marshmallow with the mallow (Malva sylvestris) flower and leaf. Marshmallow leaf and root are used for pain and swelling (inflammation) of the mucous membranes that line the respiratory tract. <P> Garden Culture. Common marshmallow plants grow best in sandy, moist soil and are not fussy about the soil's pH level. They need partial shade to full sun. Prepare their seeds for sowing by placing them in damp peat moss inside a plastic bag, and keep the bagged seeds in a refrigerator for four to six weeks. The common marshmallow’s leaves, flowers, roots and seeds are edible. The roots contain a mucilagelike material that can be cooked into a soft sweet food -- the original marshmallow candy. Making it begins with peeling and thinly slicing several roots. <P> Althaea officinalis (marsh-mallow, marsh mallow, or common marshmallow) is a perennial species indigenous to Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa, which is used as a medicinal plant and ornamental plant. <P> The marshmallow plant grows in more than one continent. The common marshmallow plant (Althaea officinalis) is a green perennial that grows large, bee-pollinated, white flowers from July to September, followed by seedpods that ripen from August to October. The common marshmallow’s leaves, flowers, roots and seeds are edible. The roots contain a mucilagelike material that can be cooked into a soft sweet food -- the original marshmallow candy. Making it begins with peeling and thinly slicing several roots. <P> At least 15 U.S. states and some Canadian provinces have common marshmallow plants growing wild. Those U.S. states are New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arkansas, North Dakota and Nebraska. The common marshmallow’s leaves, flowers, roots and seeds are edible. The roots contain a mucilagelike material that can be cooked into a soft sweet food -- the original marshmallow candy. Making it begins with peeling and thinly slicing several roots. <P> The use of marshmallow to make sweets dates back to ancient Egypt, where the recipe called for extracting sap from the plant and mixing it with nuts and honey. Another pre-modern recipe uses the pith of the marshmallow plant, rather than the sap. The stem was peeled back to reveal the soft and spongy pith, which was boiled in sugar syrup and dried to produce a soft, chewy confection. The marshmallow plant's sap was also used by gladiators in ancient Rome. Marshmallow probably came first into being as a medicinal substance, since the mucilaginous extracts come from the root of the marshmallow plant, Althaea officinalis, which were used as a remedy for sore throats. <P> 1 Marshes are the native growing ground for the mallow plant; hence the name marshmallow. 2 Mallow plants are native in Asia and Europe and are also grown in eastern United States. 3 In the 1800s, the sap of mallow plants were not only used to make marshmallows, but doctors also used this sap to soothe colds and sore throats. Today I found out marshmallows were once made from the sap of marshmallow plants. Whether they are a hot chocolate topping treat, in the form of a sugar-coated critter, or roasting over a campfire, marshmallows are a favorite treat for many people. <P> Marshmallow Plant. The Marshmallow plant (Althea officinalis) is a very pretty perennial wild plant found in marshes by the sea. It can easily grow in gardens as well. It is native to Europe. It can grow to be about 1.5 meters tall (4 feet) tall.

what event prompted the formation of the first continental congress
|
<P> On May 27, 1774, the Virginia House of Burgesses proposed a continental congress. A special convention was held on August 1 to elect delegates to the meeting in Philadelphia the following month. Thomas Jefferson, a delegate from Albemarle County, introduced a Summary View of the Rights of British America.. It failed to gain the support of the Virginia convention, but it brought attention to Jefferson as an exponent of the American cause. The First Continental Congress convened in Philadelphia 's Carpenters Hall on September 5, 1774. Twelve of the 13 colonies sent delegates. <P> Answer There were several causes for calling the First Continental Congress. Many of the reasons centered around new, and severe, taxes passed by the English Parliament on Colonial commerce. There was the Tea Act, the Molasses Act, several other tax revenue acts, and then, the ultimate insult, The Stamp Act. <P> In addition to the colonies which had sent delegates to the First Continental Congress, the Congress resolved on October 21, 1774 to send letters of invitation to Quebec, Saint John's Island (now Prince Edward Island), Nova Scotia, Georgia, East Florida, and West Florida.

<P> Prosecco Wine. Prosecco is a sparkling white wine from north-eastern Italy, specifically the Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia wine regions. It is also the informal name for the grape variety used to make these wines, which is known officially as Glera. Since July 2009, the name 'Prosecco' has been regulated and protected under DOC law, ensuring that wines labeled with the name come only from the specified areas of north-eastern Italy. <P> Its origin and name can be traced back to the town of Prosecco in Trieste. The grapes are transformed into sparkling wine using the Charmat method in which stainless steel tanks and yeast are utilized to produce a natural second fermentation. Prosecco’s home is in postcard-beautiful NE Italy, in between the fun-filled Adriatic Coast to the East, romantic Venice in the South and the breathtaking Dolomite mountains to the North. Tourists flock to this welcoming area and Italians have summer homes dotting the hills <P> Prosecco, the sparkling wine from Italy, is at the very top of my list. A light, simple, fruity wine, Prosecco is possessed of charms that I've found to be fleeting at best. And yet Prosecco is one of the most popular wines in this country. <P> La Marca Prosecco. La Marca Prosecco is named for the La Marca Trevigiana zone, located in the heart of Italy's Prosecco region, where grapes for our Prosecco are grown. Founded more than 40 years ago, La Marca winery joins tradition and innovation, crafting award-winning Prosecco that captures the essence of the region in every bottle. <P> And true to its home, Prosecco is known throughout Italy as “The Welcome Wine.” All are refreshing, with a food-friendly low alcohol content (around 11%). But for hundreds of years the wines from the hills have commanded a premium, prized for their combination of refreshing lightness and yet complexity of flavor. Prosecco’s home is in postcard-beautiful NE Italy, in between the fun-filled Adriatic Coast to the East, romantic Venice in the South and the breathtaking Dolomite mountains to the North. Tourists flock to this welcoming area and Italians have summer homes dotting the hills <P> The name is derived from that of the Italian village of Prosecco near Trieste, where the grape may have originated. Prosecco DOC is produced from nine provinces spanning the Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia regions. Until the 2008 vintage Prosecco was protected as a DOC within Italy, as Prosecco di Conegliano-Valdobbiadene, Prosecco di Conegliano and Prosecco di Valdobbiadene. From 2009, this has been promoted to DOCG status. <P> [proˈsekko]) is an Italian white wine. Prosecco DOC can be Spumante sparkling wine, Frizzante (semi-sparkling) and Tranquillo (still) depending on the perlage. It is made from Glera grapes, formerly known also as Prosecco, but other grape varieties may be included. The following varieties are traditionally used with Glera up to a maximum of 15% of the total: Verdiso, Bianchetta Trevigiana, Perera, Glera lunga, Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco, Pinot Grigio and Pinot Nero.

what is heaving in concrete
|
<P> Other causes of concrete heaving. Sometimes freezing water isn't the culprit when concrete is pushed up or in by soil pressure. Clay-rich soil absorbs moisture rather than allowing it to drain through. The expansive force of clay-rich soil when it absorbs water can be just as destructive as frost heaving. To remedy this problem, a foundation repair specialist is likely to recommend improving drainage and replacing expansive soil with soil that drains well because of higher sand and gravel content. <P> Cracking and heaving are common flaws in concrete. Because concrete is a mixture of cement, gravel and sand, it has a finite tensile strength that is prone to fracturing under environmental or structural stress. Concrete was used in natural forms by the Ancient Egyptians and Chinese. The Romans then invented synthetic concrete by mixing volcanic ash with lime mortar, sand and gravel. Modern or Portland cement was invented in the 19th century and is a mixture of chalk and clay which has been baked in a lime kiln. <P> Photo Credit: Tim Carter. Frost heaving can wreak havoc with houses, barns, sheds, roadways, concrete slabs, basically anything that's connected to the Earth in a place where the ground freezes. Just as the phrase implies, the frost heaves, or lifts, things up. The problem is, the lifting may not be equal around the structure. <P> What NOT To Do: Cracks on floor slabs that are caused by foundation heave are unique in appearance. You will see multiple cracks that come together to a point or form an enclosed loop where the heave is greatest. Before doing any repairs to your foundation, it's important to identify the problem as heaving. <P> What Causes Slab Heave. Slab heave is caused by clay soils expanding when they absorb moisture. The source of moisture can be rainwater, broken sewer pipes, ground water, poor surface drainage and garden irrigation. The amount of water in the ground is often uneven and so the movement in the house is uneven. Slab Heave Affects Houses. Think about the day or week or month that your house was built. Right up to the minute your concrete slab was poured, the ground moisture conditions in your allotment were pretty much consistent. Now consider what happens when an concrete house slab is poured on your allotment. <P> Frost heaving can damage many types of concrete and masonry, including sidewalks, patios, slabs, retaining walls foundation walls. To repair heaved concrete and prevent concrete heaving in the future, rely on the expertise of a foundation repair specialist. The expansive force of clay-rich soil when it absorbs water can be just as destructive as frost heaving. To remedy this problem, a foundation repair specialist is likely to recommend improving drainage and replacing expansive soil with soil that drains well because of higher sand and gravel content. <P> Where restraint in the form of a building load is present, heaving pressures may or may not overcome the restraint, but they can be very high: 19 tons/sq ft has been measured, and a seven-story reinforced concrete frame building on a raft foundation was observed to heave more than 2 in. (the nitty gritty on how frost heave works). In most parts of the north United States the ground freezes during the winter months to a depth of several feet. Such ground freezing can lead to heaving of buildings located above or adjacent to it. <P> If a concrete or masonry element has been damaged because of frost heaving, it's not enough the repair the damage. An experienced foundation repair contractor will work to determine how the heaving occurred and how different repairs can be made to avoid heaving in the future. The expansive force of clay-rich soil when it absorbs water can be just as destructive as frost heaving. To remedy this problem, a foundation repair specialist is likely to recommend improving drainage and replacing expansive soil with soil that drains well because of higher sand and gravel content. <P> 1 Answer from this member: Heaving is usually the result of frost, tree roots or expansive soils getting wet. Heaving floors will often be accompanied by cracks, thought slabs may heave with or without cracking. When heaving occurs, it can form a trip hazard and may weaken the structure of your home. Walls may be out of plumb as a result of the heaved slabs. <P> Frost heaving (or a frost heave) is an upwards swelling of soil during freezing conditions caused by an increasing presence of ice as it grows towards the surface, upwards from the depth in the soil where freezing temperatures have penetrated into the soil (the freezing front or freezing boundary). During frost heave, one or more soil-free ice lenses grow, and their growth displaces the soil above them. These lenses grow by the continual addition of water from a groundwater source that is lower in the soil and below the freezing line in the soil.

what is quantity per unit
|
<P> In the power systems analysis field of electrical engineering, a per-unit system is the expression of system quantities as fractions of a defined base unit quantity. Calculations are simplified because quantities expressed as per-unit do not change when they are referred from one side of a transformer to the other. This can be a pronounced advantage in power system analysis where large numbers of transformers may be encountered. 1 Use of the constant is reduced in three-phase calculations. 2 Per-unit quantities are the same on either side of a transformer, independent of voltage level. 3 By normalizing quantities to a common base, both hand and automatic calculations are simplified. <P> Conversion of per-unit quantities to volts, ohms, or amperes requires a knowledge of the base that the per-unit quantities were referenced to. The main idea of a per unit system is to absorb large difference in absolute values into base relationships. 1 Use of the constant is reduced in three-phase calculations. 2 Per-unit quantities are the same on either side of a transformer, independent of voltage level. 3 By normalizing quantities to a common base, both hand and automatic calculations are simplified. <P> Standard cost of material per unit = Standard quantity to produce one unit × Standard price of materials per unit. = 4.00 lbs. × $5.70. = $22.80. In our example, the standard direct materials cost to manufacture one computer case is $22.80. This standard cost is used to prepare a standard cost card of the product. Direct materials quantity standards: The normal or expected quantity of direct materials required to manufacture a unit of finished product is called standard quantity per unit. It also includes allowances for normal wastage and rejection. In the above example, the standard quantity required to manufacture a single computer case is as follows: <P> 1 P is the price per unit paid—assume $5 per unit. 2 D is the total number of units purchased in a year—assume 3,500 units. 3 H is the holding cost per unit per year—assume $3 per unit per annum. 4 Q is the quantity ordered each time an order is placed—initially assume 350 gallons per order. 1 D is the total number of units purchased in a year—assume 3,500 units. 2 H is the holding cost per unit per year—assume $3 per unit per annum. 3 Q is the quantity ordered each time an order is placed—initially assume 350 gallons per order. 4 S is the fixed cost of each order—assume $15 <P> Standard Quantity Per Unit Definition: The amount of materials that should be required to complete a single unit of product, including allowances for normal waste, spoilage, rejects, and similar inefficiencies. <P> Definition. The number of individual units of a given SKU number that are required to make up a larger unit. This term may be used in production to list the quantity of a specific item that is required to create a complete set or assembled finished product (quantity per assembly). Or, it may be used on a bill of lading or packing slip to indicate the number of units required to make up a box, carton, package, etc. <P> (10,000 budget / 100 units = 100 cost per unit). If I want to produce 100 units of something and I have a $10,000 budget the most that I can spend per unit is $100.

what are oligopeptides
|
<P> Amino acids that have been incorporated into peptides are termed residues due to the release of either a hydrogen ion from the amine end or a hydroxyl ion from the carboxyl end, or both, as a water molecule is released during formation of each amide bond. Peptide fragments refer to fragments of proteins that are used to identify or quantify the source protein. Often these are the products of enzymatic degradation performed in the laboratory on a controlled sample, but can also be forensic or paleontological samples that have been degraded by natural effects. <P> 1 Ceruletide-A specific decapeptide found in the skin of Hyla caerulea, the Australian green tree frog. 2 Ceruletide has very much in common with regards to action and composition to cholecystokinin. 3 It stimulates gastric, biliary, and pancreatic secretion; and certain smooth muscle. 1 Teprotide-A man made nonapeptide (Pyr-Trp-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gln-Ile-Pro-Pro) which is exactly the same as the peptide from the venom of the snake, Bothrops jararaca. 2 It inhibits kininase II and ANGIOTENSIN I and has been proposed as an antihypertensive agent. <P> Cell-Communicating Ingredients.

what homeostatic imbalance causes hypertension
|
<P> Homeostatic Imbalances. Homeostatic Imbalances Hypertension is the term used to describe high blood pressure. Blood pressure is a measurement of the force against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps blood through your body. Blood pressure readings are usually given as two numbers -- for example, 120 over 80 (written.. <P> It is most commonly known as high blood pressure. The body system that is involved is the cardiovascular system. The organ that is involved is the heart. The causes for homeostatic imbalance in hypertension are medication, weight, smoking, heredity, drinking, external stressors, age, disease, and race. <P> The list of imbalances in hemostasis that can lead to hypertension is extremely long. Several things can lead to hypertension also known as high blood pressure. Most of these imbalances are attributed to the diet one carries out. For example a high salt intake or NACL raises blood pressure. This is because pressure is increased as your kidneys work to remove water the sodium in salt holds it thus putting pressure on your blood vessels. A high glucose level in your blood is also another cause of hypertension. When one consumes sugar or also glucose the result is the pancreas releasing an enzyme known as insulin when too much insulin is released it has an inflammatory effect on the body causing the linings of the blood vessels to swell up. <P> Hypertension (high blood pressure) is a medical condition in which the blood pressure is chronically elevated. Hypertension is one of the major risk factors for strokes, heart attacks, heart failure and aneurysms and is a leading cause of chronic renal (kidney) failure. Even moderate elevation of arterial blood pressure leads to a shortened life expectancy. <P> Hypertension. Hypertension Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is when the force of the blood against your artery walls is high enough to possibly cause health problems. Hypertension is a result of homeostatic imbalance; the imbalance can be cause by internal or external factors, in the cardiovascular system... Homeostatic Imbalances Hypertension is the term used to describe high blood pressure. Blood pressure is a measurement of the force against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps blood through your body. <P> The homeostatic imbalance that causes hypertension is a possible reaction to medication, or a shock. Also weight is a factor, and inactivity. Other factors are drinking and smoking. Internal and external stressors also affect homeostasis, which in turns causes Hypertension. The organ system it involves is the cardiovascular system. It also affects the eyes, kidneys, brain and the aorta. The homeostatic imbalance that causes Diabetes is when the body does not produce enough or overproduces the hormone insulin and sometimes glucagon. Another cause is when a person’s body possesses nonfunctional receptor sites within target cells that cause the body to become insensitive to these same chemicals <P> The homeostatic imbalance that reasons hypertension is a possible reception to medication, or a shock. Also weight is a factor, and inactivity. other factors are drinking and smoking. Internal and external stressors similarly postulate homeostasis, which in turns causes Hypertension. The organ system it involves is the cardiovascular system. The homeostatic imbalance that causes Diabetes is when the body does not parent enough or overproduces the hormone insulin and sometimes glucagon. Another cause is when a persons body possesses nonfunctional sense organ sites within target cells that cause the body to become insensitive to these same chemicals. <P> High blood pressure (hypertension) which is what you have is when the reading is at least 140/90 or higher. One negative feedback system that helps regulate in blood pressure with negative feedback system(homeostatic imbalance) is when the heart beats faster or harder, blood pressure increases. Homeostatic regulation of blood pressure by a negative feedback system the response is fed back into the system, and the system continues to lower blood pressure until there is a return to normal blood pressure (homeostasis). <P> Hypertension is the term used to describe high blood pressure.

what is occupational therapy autism
|
<P> The occupational therapy intervention process is based on the results of the evaluation and is individualized to include a variety of strategies and techniques that help clients maximize their ability to participate in daily activities at home, school (if relevant), work, and in the community environment. The scope of occupational therapy services for individuals with an autism spectrum disorder across the life course. American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 64 (Suppl.), S125–S136. Developed by Janie B. Scott, MA, FAOTA, for the American Occupational Therapy Association. <P> The Five-Minute Way to Spot Autism. When you think of occupational therapy, you probably think of skills that adults need to stay at work or work more efficiently. Autistic children have “work,” too, and they need skills to succeed in the tasks of daily living and learning. Wagner cautions that occupational therapy does not have the research behind it that other types of autism therapies, such as applied behavioral analysis, have, but it can have some benefits. “I always want extra therapies to help [children with autism] integrate into the classroom,” Wagner says. <P> In fact, occupational therapists aren't worried about jobs; they're focused on the activities that give daily life meaning. Occupational therapy helps patients recover or develop skills needed for the activities of daily living, including self-care, leisure, independent living and work. Therapists work in hospitals, in schools, in nursing homes and with patients in their own homes. <P> Occupational therapy is a health and rehabilitation profession. Occupational therapists work with people of all ages who need specialized assistance to lead independent, productive, and satisfying lives due to physical, developmental, social, or emotional problems. Occupational therapists use the occupations of self-care, work, and play/leisure activities to increase independence, enhance development, and/or prevent disability. To achieve these goals occupational therapists may also adapt the task or the environment. <P> Occupational therapists use special equipment to help children with developmental disabilities. Occupational therapists treat injured, ill, or disabled patients through the therapeutic use of everyday activities. They help these patients develop, recover, and improve the skills needed for daily living and working. <P> Occupational therapy (OT) is the use of assessment and treatment to develop, recover, or maintain the daily living and work skills of people with a physical, mental, or cognitive disorder. Occupational therapists often work closely with professionals in physical therapy, speech therapy, nursing, social work, and the community. <P> Occupational therapists study human growth and development and a person’s interaction with the environment through daily activities. They are experts in the social, emotional, and physiological effects of illness and injury. This knowledge helps them promote skills for independent living in people with autism and other developmental disorders. Occupational therapists work as part of a team that includes parents, teachers, and other professionals. They help set specific goals for the person with autism. These goals often involve social interaction, behavior, and classroom performance. A person who has autism often has trouble communicating and interacting with other people; his or her interests, activities, and play skills may be limited. Occupational therapy may help people with autism develop these skills at home and in school. <P> Autism Resources. With so many practitioners working with persons with autism, AOTA has developed extensive resources on this topic, and this page organizes all of these resources in one area. Whether you're looking for news, Conference sessions, AJOT articles, books, research, or other tools, you can find it all here. <P> Autism therapies are therapies that attempt to lessen the deficits and behaviours associated with autism and other autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and to increase the quality of life and functional independence of autistic individuals, especially children. Treatment is typically catered to the child's needs. <P> Occupational therapy may be recommended to help a child or adult with autism spectrum disorder cope better with daily tasks, socialising and work or school tasks. By working on these skills during occupational therapy, a child with autism may also do the following: 1 Develop peer and adult relationships. 2 Learn how to focus on tasks. 3 Learn how to delay gratification.

what is pseudomonas
|
<P> Pseudomonas infections are diseases caused by a bacterium from the genus Pseudomonas. The bacteria are found widely in the environment, such as in soil, water, and plants. They usually do not cause infection in healthy people. If an infection does occur in a healthy person, it is generally mild. Pseudomonas infections are caused by a free-living bacterium from the genus Pseudomonas. Pseudomonas are gram-negative bacteria. They are found widely in soil and water. They favor moist areas. Only a few of the many species cause disease. The most common species that causes infection is called Pseudomonas aeruginosa <P> A. A pseudomonas infection is caused by a very common type of bacteria called Pseudomonas aeruginosa (say soo-duh-MOH-nuss ay-roo-jee-NOH-suh). Healthy people often carry these bacteria around without knowing it and without having any problems. Topic Overview. A pseudomonas infection is caused by a very common type of bacteria called Pseudomonas aeruginosa (say soo-duh-MOH-nuss ay-roo-jee-NOH-suh). <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Pseudomonas is a genus of Gram-negative, aerobic gammaproteobacteria, belonging to the family Pseudomonadaceae containing 191 validly described species. The members of the genus demonstrate a great deal of metabolic diversity, and consequently are able to colonize a wide range of niches. <P> Practice Essentials. Pseudomonas aeruginosa has become an important cause of infection, especially in patients with compromised host defense mechanisms. It is the most common pathogen isolated from patients who have been hospitalized longer than 1 week, and it is a frequent cause of nosocomial infections. These pathogens are widespread in nature, inhabiting soil, water, plants, and animals (including humans). Pseudomonas aeruginosa has become an important cause of infection, especially in patients with compromised host defense mechanisms. <P> Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a rod-shaped bacterium that is normally found in moist or wet areas, like water or soil. It can be found in hot tubs, inadequately chlorinated swimming pool, sinks, and toilets. It's also very prevalent in hospitals. <P> Serious Pseudomonas infections usually occur in people in the hospital and/or with weakened immune systems. Infections of the blood, pneumonia, and infections following surgery can lead to severe illness and death in these people. Pseudomonas infection is caused by strains of bacteria found widely in the environment; the most common type causing infections in humans is called Pseudomonas aeruginosa. For more images of this bacterium, search the Public Health Image Library. <P> Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common Gram-negative bacterium that can cause disease in plants and animals, including humans. It is citrate, catalase, and oxidase positive. It is found in soil, water, skin flora, and most man-made environments throughout the world. P. aeruginosa is often preliminarily identified by its pearlescent appearance and grape-like or tortilla-like odor in vitro. Definitive clinical identification of P. aeruginosa often includes identifying the production of both pyocyanin and fluorescein, as well as its ability to grow at 42°C.

what is the name of toads
|
<P> The common toad was first given the name Rana bufo by the Swedish biologist Carl Linnaeus in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae in 1758. In this work, he placed all the frogs and toads in the single genus Rana. The common toad seems to be in decline in part of its range but overall is listed as being of least concern in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. <P> That depends on the type of toad. Generally, the scientific name is Bufo. Toad is just the Genus of the name. The format is Bufo (species name.) (Example: An American toad is … Bufo americanus. Climbing toads are Bufo coniferous.). 1 person found this useful <P> Scientific Name: Order Anura. Description: Like frogs, toads are amphibians. They differ from most frogs in that they have dry skin, warts, crests behind the eyes, and parotoid glands. The parotoid glands produce a poisonous secretion that helps to defend the toad from predators. This substance, which is called bufotoxin, can cause death in small animals and allergic reactions in humans. Cane toads are the largest toads and grow up to nine inches in length. A massive cane toad caught in Australia has been described as the size of a small dog! Diet: Like frogs, most toads eat insects and other arthropods. However, some species eat reptiles, small mammals, and even other <P> Technically speaking, toads are frogs. Both are members of the order Anura, a group that experts usually refer to simply as frogs. Within this large group, the name toad is given to those with dry, warty skin and short hind legs for walking instead jumping. <P> The call or croak of a frog is unique to its species. Frogs create this sound by passing air through the larynx in the throat. In most calling frogs, the sound is amplified by one or more vocal sacs, membranes of skin under the throat or on the corner of the mouth, that distend during the amplification of the call. The use of the term frog in common names usually refers to species that are aquatic or semi-aquatic and have smooth, moist skins; the term toad generally refers to species that are terrestrial with dry, warty skins. <P> Species Name: Bufo marinus Linnaeus, 1758. Common Name(s): Marine Toad, Giant Toad, Cane Toad. Synonymy: Bufo agua Clark, 1916 Bufo strumosus Court, 1858 Rana gigas Walburn, 1784 Rana marina Linnaeus, 1758. Species Description: The non-native marine toad, Bufo marinus, is the largest of Florida's frogs and toads. <P> The common toad, European toad or in Anglophone parts of Europe, simply the toad (Bufo bufo, from Latin bufo toad), is an amphibian found throughout most of Europe (with the exception of Ireland, Iceland, and some Mediterranean islands), in the western part of North Asia, and in a small portion of Northwest Africa. The common toad seems to be in decline in part of its range but overall is listed as being of least concern in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. <P> Warty species of frog tend to be called toads but the distinction between frogs and toads is based on informal naming conventions concentrating on the warts rather than taxonomy or evolutionary history; some toads are more closely related to frogs than to other toads. The use of the term frog in common names usually refers to species that are aquatic or semi-aquatic and have smooth, moist skins; the term toad generally refers to species that are terrestrial with dry, warty skins. <P> If there are multiple listings for a frog or toad, each link leads to a page representing a different region.

what is a cervical lymph node
|
<P> A lymph node is an oval-shaped organ of the lymphatic system, distributed widely throughout the body including the armpit and stomach and linked by lymphatic vessels. Lymph nodes are major sites of B, T, and other immune cells. Lymph nodes are important for the proper functioning of the immune system, acting as filters for foreign particles and cancer cells. Lymph nodes do not deal with toxicity, which is primarily dealt with by the liver and kidneys. Lymph nodes are bean or oval shaped and range in size from a few millimeters to about 1–2 cm long. Each lymph node is surrounded by a fibrous capsule, and inside the lymph node the fibrous capsule extends to form trabeculae. The substance of the lymph node is divided into the outer cortex and the inner medulla. <P> The cervical lymph nodes are glands in the human lymphatic system, which is a complicated series of vessels and passageways that bring specialized fluid to the heart and most major organs. The cervical system is located in the neck and is present in people of both genders, adults and children alike. Lymphoma. Lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects the lymphatic system. One of the first symptoms is swollen armpit, groin, or cervical lymph nodes. Lymphoma falls into two general categories: Hodgkin's disease and Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. <P> Structure [edit]. There are approximately 300 lymph nodes in the neck, and they can be classified in many different ways. Commonly used systems have been devised by the American Academy of Otolaryngology and the American Joint Committee on Cancer. One system divides the nodes as follows: 1 Level I: Submental and submandibular nodes. The characterization of neoplastic lymph nodes on CT, MRI or ultrasound is difficult, and usually requires confirmation by further imaging such as PET scans, and ultimately tissue diagnosis by fine needle aspiration, core biopsy, or surgical excision. <P> Posterior lymph nodes are located along the back of the neck. Deep cervical lymph nodes are associated with their positions adjacent to the internal jugular vein, which runs near the sides of the neck. They are known as the lateral jugular, anterior jugular, and jugulo-digastric lymph nodes. The inferior deep cervical lymph nodes, the juguloomohyoid nodes, and the supraclavicular, or scalene, nodes are considered deep jugular nodes. There are some 600 to 700 lymph nodes scattered throughout the body. Cervical lymph nodes are located in the neck region. There are two general categories of cervical lymph nodes: anterior and posterior. <P> Lymph nodes often swell in one location when a problem such as an injury, infection, or tumor develops in or near the lymph node. Which lymph nodes are swollen can help identify the problem. 1 The glands on either side of the neck, under the jaw, or behind the ears commonly swell when you have a cold or sore throat. <P> Cancer that starts in the cervix can spread to lymph nodes in the pelvis (lymph nodes are pea-sized collections of immune system tissue). To check for lymph node spread, the surgeon might remove some of these lymph nodes. This procedure is known as a lymph node dissection or lymph node sampling. <P> For lymph nodes near the cervix, see external iliac lymph nodes and inguinal lymph nodes. The characterization of neoplastic lymph nodes on CT, MRI or ultrasound is difficult, and usually requires confirmation by further imaging such as PET scans, and ultimately tissue diagnosis by fine needle aspiration, core biopsy, or surgical excision. <P> The cervical lymph nodes are some of the best known nodes of the lymphatic system in part because of their role in disease detection. When the body is fighting some sort of major infection, all or at least many of the lymph nodes may swell. Lymphoma. Lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects the lymphatic system. One of the first symptoms is swollen armpit, groin, or cervical lymph nodes. Lymphoma falls into two general categories: Hodgkin's disease and Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. <P> Examine groups of cervical nodes systemically. Knowledge of grouping and location of cervical lymph nodes is necessary. 1 For palpation of preauricular nodes, roll your finger in front of the ear, against the maxilla. 2 Sub occipital lymph nodes are palpable immediately behind the ear. 3 Posterior cervical nodes are behind sternomastoid and in front of Trapezius. <P> Lymph nodes in the neck have been divided into seven levels, generally for the purpose of squamous cell carcinoma staging. This system is not inclusive of several important groups, however, such as the supraclavicular, parotid and retropharyngeal space nodes.

Which of the following blood types is a person whose blood cells were agglutinated
|
<P> A person with A + blood receives B + blood. The B antibodies (yellow) in the A + blood attack the foreign red blood cells by binding to them. The B antibodies in the A + blood bind the antigens in the B + blood and agglutination occurs. AB0 blood grouping system. According to the AB0 blood group system there are four different kinds of blood groups: A, B, AB or 0 (null). Blood group A. If you belong to the blood group A, you have A antigens on the surface of your red blood cells and B antibodies in your blood plasma. <P> ABO blood type system. The ABO system consists of A, B, AB, and O blood types. People with type A have antibodies in the blood against type B. People with type B have antibodies in the blood against type A. People with AB have no anti-A or anti-B antibodies. People with type O have both anti-A and anti-B antibodies. People with type AB blood are called universal recipients, because they can receive any of the ABO types. People with type O blood are called universal donors, because their blood can be given to people with any of the ABO types. Mismatches with the ABO and Rh blood types are responsible for the most serious, sometimes life-threatening, transfusion reactions. But these types of reactions are rare. <P> 1 Blood group B individuals have the B antigen on the surface of their RBCs, and blood serum containing IgM antibodies against the A antigen. 2 Therefore, a group B individual can receive blood only from individuals of groups B or O (with B being preferable), and can donate blood to individuals with type B or AB. 1 Blood group A individuals have the A antigen on the surface of their RBCs, and blood serum containing IgM antibodies against the B antigen. 2 Therefore, a group A individual can receive blood only from individuals of groups A or O (with A being preferable), and can donate blood to individuals with type A or AB. <P> Agglutination, or clumping, occurs when red blood cells of A, B, AB, or Rh positive blood are added to the bloodstream of a person whose red blood cells lack the protein or sugar. People with blood type AB have some red blood cells that include the A sugar molecule and some that have the B sugar molecule. <P> Which of the following blood types is a person whose blood cells were agglutinated by both anti-A serum and anti-B serum, but not by anti-Rh serum? <P> Therefore you need to know which blood types are “compatible”, that is which other blood types fit a patient with a certain blood type. For example, a person with blood type B Rh-has got A and Rh antibodies and cannot receive a blood transfusion with red blood cells which have A and Rh antigens like A Rh+ or AB Rh+. If the blood is not compatible in a blood transfusion,then the red blood cells from the donated blood will clump or agglutinate. The agglutinated red cells can clog blood vessels and stop the circulation of the blood to various parts of the body. <P> If the Rh protein is present on the red blood cells, a person's blood type is Rh+ (positive); if it is absent, the person's blood is type Rh- (negative). Our bodies naturally produce antibodies against the A and B antigens that we do not have on our red blood cells. For example, a person who is blood type A will have anti-B antibodies directed against the B antigens on red blood cells and someone who is type B will have anti-A antibodies directed against the A antigens. People with type AB blood have neither of these antibodies, while those with type O blood have both. If a person who is group A with antibodies directed against the B antigen, for example, were to be transfused with blood that is type B, his or her own antibodies would target and destroy the transfused red blood cells, causing severe, potentially fatal complications. <P> This is based on the fact that on the surface of the red blood cells there may be one or more proteins, called antigens. These antigens are called A and B. Antibodies are produced in the blood plasma against these A and B antigens, and continue to be produced throughout a person s life. The 4 blood types are known as A, B, AB and O. Blood type O (persons with neither A or B antigens) is the most common in the United States (45% of the population). Type A is found in 39% of the population. Type B is 12% of the population, and type AB is found in only 4% of the population

The blood cells were agglutinated by both anti-A serum and anti-B serum.

<P> Ratchet Girl Anthem is a video created to show some women that the way that they carry themselves isn't always cute. Ratchet Girl Anthem-The Single w/ Lyrics in The Description. Now Available on iTunes-http://bit.ly/GI9hj9. epHudson Store-http://store.ephudson.com/. Lyrics: <P> One of Beyonce’beyoncé s skills is-trend, spotting and indeed ratchet has been all over popular culture in the past. YEAR Ll Cool j released a single “ Named ” ratchet Last, november using the word as an adjective to describe a woman who is only after a’man s. money While she recognizes that the expression, when used to describe a person, is often pejorative, she has also sees women embracing “ratchet … as an attempt to de-pathologize it” and to celebrate both its edginess and its roots in the southern working class. <P> No Tabs. The meaning of the slang word 'Ratchet' is subjective. Ratchet has been used by many artists in their songs, and the meaning tends to differ from artist to artist. It’s mostly used in the hip hop culture, some have used ‘ratchet’ as a positive word, and others as a defamatory word. The word is often mistaken as coming from the word ‘wretched’ which means someone who’s miserable and has poor character. Though different artists put different meaning behind the word ratchet in their songs, majority of the public uses the word in more of a defamatory way to describe any women whom are deemed to be ghetto, lack values and morals, dirty, annoying, etc.. <P> Then something happened. Ratchet happened. In 2001, Jay-Z’s album “The Blueprint” introduced me to a world of clever wordplay, catchy hooks and a sound that was reminiscent of the days of Al Green and The Jackson 5. While its popularity can be backed by its position on the charts, ratchet’s appeal is a little more convoluted. There is definitely an intangible factor that makes a great ratchet song; otherwise, there wouldn’t be suburban kids present at the shows. <P> Ratchet is not just a song. Ratchet is a movement, Mandigo said. The term was first used in Lava House's 1999 single Ratchet as a derogatory term to describe someone as jealous, trashy, having little to no morals or someone who claims to be something they're not. <P> Ratchet Girl Anthem is a video created to show some women that the way that they carry themselves isn't always cute.

how long is cooked salmon good in the fridge for
|
<P> 1 The precise answer to the question “How long does cooked salmon last?” depends to a large extent on storage conditions — refrigerate salmon within two hours of cooking. 1 How long does cooked salmon last at room temperature? 2 Bacteria grow rapidly at temperatures between 40 °F and 140 °F; cooked salmon should be discarded if left for more than 2 hours at room temperature. <P> In the Refrigerator. Salmon can be kept fresh in your refrigerator for up to two days. As soon as you bring your salmon home, unwrap it and wipe it down with a damp towel then wrap it in plastic wrap and place it in the coldest area of your refrigerator. This is typically the back of the bottom drawer in the refrigerator. 2. Salmon can be kept fresh in your freezer for up to eight weeks. When you bring home your fresh salmon take it out of the packaging, rinse it off using cold water and pat it dry. Cut your salmon into the desired portions and store it in freezer wrap, foil, freezer bags or an airtight freezer friendly container. <P> Cooked salmon will stay good longer than raw salmon. You can keep cooked salmon in the refrigerator for about 5 days. Any longer than that and it will start to spoil. This food will keep for about 3 days in the refrigerator. Place the food in an air tight container for the best results. This food can easily be transferred to the freezer for … longer storage time. <P> You should put it into individual portion containers & freeze it as soon as possible. Cooked salmon will probably keep in the refrigerator for about 5-6 days. But don't wait until the last day to freeze it. It is easily thawed and reheated in the microwave. You may keep it in the freezer for 2-3 months. I got a couple half pound slamon fillets a couple of days ago, ate about three quarters and saved the rest of it in the fridge. How long is it good for? I just had salmon two times in three days so I want to give it a rest. <P> June 1, 2015 | By Rebecca Longshore | Comments (1). Whether you cooked up an amazing salmon recipe last night, or you’re bringing home a box from a restaurant that was just too much to finish in one sitting, you’re left with a portion of cooked salmon. The next day rolls around, and you have lunch and dinner plans <P> How long can you keep cooked salmon in the fridge? Cooked salmon can be kept in the refrigerator in a covered dish for up to 4 days. Uncooked salmon should only be kept in the fridge for 2 to 3 days before cooking. Edit. This food will keep for about 3 days in the refrigerator.

what is fixation biology
|
<P> Fixation. Definition. noun, plural: fixations. (biological technique) The use of a fixative to preserve histological, cytological, or microbiological specimen. (zoology) The determination of type, whether by designation, or indication. <P> All plants, including forage crops, need relatively large amounts of nitrogen (N) for proper growth and development. Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) is the term used for a process in which nitrogen gas (N 2) from the atmosphere is incorporated into the tissue of certain plants. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. In the fields of histology, pathology, and cell biology, fixation is a critical step in the preparation of histological sections by which biological tissues are preserved from decay, thereby preventing autolysis or putrefaction. Fixation terminates any ongoing biochemical reactions, and may also increase the mechanical strength or stability of the treated tissues. The broad objective of tissue fixation is to preserve cells and tissue components and to do this in such a way as to allow for the preparation of thin, stained sections. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. For other uses, see Fixation. In population genetics, fixation is the change in a gene pool from a situation where there exists at least two variants of a particular gene (allele) to a situation where only one of the alleles remains. Fixation can refer to a gene in general or particular nucleotide position in the DNA chain (locus). In the process of substitution, a previously non-existent allele arises by mutation and undergoes fixation by spreading through the population by random genetic drift and/or positive selection.

thyroid function test purpose
|
<P> 24. Thyroid function tests are blood tests which help to check the function of the thyroid gland. They are mainly used to detect hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) and hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid). Note: the information below is a general guide only. Thyroid function tests are blood tests that check the levels of the hormones (chemicals) made by the thyroid gland. Some thyroid function tests also check the level of a hormone made by the pituitary gland in the brain, which acts on the thyroid gland. <P> The T4 test is known as the thyroxine test. The TSH test measures the level of thyroid-stimulating hormone in your blood. These are the two most common thyroid function tests and are usually ordered together. They are routinely performed on newborn babies to identify a low-functioning thyroid gland. Drawing Blood for Thyroid Function Tests. Talk to your doctor about any medications you are taking and tell your doctor if you are pregnant. Certain medications and pregnancy may influence your test results. A blood draw, also known as venipuncture, is an outpatient procedure performed at a lab or a doctor’s office. <P> If your thyroid gland produces too many hormones, you may experience weight loss, high levels of anxiety, tremors, and a sense of being on a “high.” This is called “hyperthyroidism.”. Thyroid function tests are a series of blood tests used to measure how well your thyroid gland is working. Drawing Blood for Thyroid Function Tests. Talk to your doctor about any medications you are taking and tell your doctor if you are pregnant. Certain medications and pregnancy may influence your test results. A blood draw, also known as venipuncture, is an outpatient procedure performed at a lab or a doctor’s office. <P> A Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) blood test is combined with the Free T3 and Free T4 tests to provide the most accurate overview of thyroid function. Test also includes T3 Uptake, T4 and T7. The thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) blood test is used to check for thyroid gland problems, frequently ordered with the Thyroid Profile to measure levels and ratio of of T3 and T4. <P> Thyroid function tests (TFTs) is a collective term for blood tests used to check the function of the thyroid. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH, thyrotropin) is generally elevated in hypothyroidism and decreased in hyperthyroidism. It is the most sensitive test for thyroid hormone function. <P> Guide. A thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) blood test is used to check for thyroid gland problems. TSH is produced when the hypothalamus releases a substance called thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). TRH then triggers the pituitary gland to release TSH. <P> TESTS. Blood tests to measure TSH, T4, T3 and Free T4 are readily available and widely used. Tests to evaluate thyroid function include the following: TSH TESTS The best way to initially test thyroid function is to measure the TSH level in a blood sample. A high TSH level indicates that the thyroid gland is failing because of a problem that is directly affecting the thyroid (primary hypothyroidism). <P> T3 tests, which check for levels of triiodothyronine, are usually ordered if T4 tests and TSH tests suggest hyperthyroidism. The T3 test may also be ordered if you are showing signs of an overactive thyroid gland. The normal range for the T3 is 100-200 nanograms of hormone per deciliter of blood. Drawing Blood for Thyroid Function Tests. Talk to your doctor about any medications you are taking and tell your doctor if you are pregnant. Certain medications and pregnancy may influence your test results. A blood draw, also known as venipuncture, is an outpatient procedure performed at a lab or a doctor’s office. <P> The major thyroid hormone secreted by the thyroid gland is thyroxine, also called T4 because it contains four iodine atoms. To exert its effects, T4 is converted to triiodothyronine (T3) by the removal of an iodine atom. Tests to evaluate thyroid function include the following: TSH TESTS The best way to initially test thyroid function is to measure the TSH level in a blood sample. A high TSH level indicates that the thyroid gland is failing because of a problem that is directly affecting the thyroid (primary hypothyroidism).

what are the symptoms of a tick bite
|
<P> Some ticks carry diseases, which can be passed on when they bite. Tick-borne diseases can cause a variety of symptoms, and usually develop within the first few weeks after a tick bite. Potential symptoms of tick-borne diseases include: 1 red spot or rash near the bite site. 2 neck stiffness. 3 headache or nausea. 4 weakness. 5 muscle or joint pain or achiness. 6 fever or chills. 7 swollen lymph nodes. <P> Early Signs and Symptoms (3 to 30 days after tick bite). 1 Fever, chills, headache, fatigue, muscle and joint aches, and swollen lymph nodes. 2 Erythema migrans (EM) rash: 3 Occurs in approximately 70 to 80 percent of infected persons. 4 Begins at the site of a tick bite after a delay of 3 to 30 days (average is about 7 days). 1 Fever and other general symptoms may occur in the absence of rash. 2 A small bump or redness at the site of a tick bite that occurs immediately and resembles a mosquito bite, is common. 3 This irritation generally goes away in 1-2 days and is not a sign of Lyme disease. <P> Some immediate symptoms that infrequently or rarely develop during or immediately after a tick bite may be fever, shortness of breath, weakness, vomiting, swelling, weakness or paralysis, headache, confusion, or palpitations. Individuals with these symptoms should be seen immediately by a doctor.

In rare cases, a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) may occur. Many of the diseases ticks carry cause flu-like symptoms, such as fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, and muscle aches. Symptoms may begin from 1 day to 3 weeks after the tick bite. Sometimes a rash or sore appears along with the flu-like symptoms. Common tick-borne diseases include: 1 Lyme disease. 2 Rocky Mountain spotted fever. 3 Tularemia. 4 Ehrlichiosis. 5 Relapsing fever. 6 Colorado tick fever. <P> A small, red bump often appears at the site of a tick bite or tick removal and resolves over a few days. This is normal after a tick bite and does not indicate Lyme disease. However, these signs and symptoms may occur within a month after you've been infected: Rash. From 3 to 30 days after an infected tick bite, an expanding red area might appear that sometimes clears in the center, forming a bull’s-eye pattern. <P> 1 Rash: Lyme disease, southern tick-associated rash illness (STARI) , Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF) , ehrlichiosis, and tularemia can result in distinctive rashes: 2 In Lyme disease, the rash may appear within 3-30 days, typically before the onset of fever. The most common symptoms of tick-related illnesses are: 1 Fever/chills: With all tickborne diseases, patients can experience fever at varying degrees and time of onset. 2 Aches and pains: Tickborne disease symptoms include headache, fatigue, and muscle aches. 3 With Lyme disease you may also experience joint pain. <P> Later, the bite site may develop itching, burning, redness, and rarely, localized intense pain (some soft tick bites) in some individuals. A few individuals may be sensitive or allergic to tick bites (tick saliva secretions) and develop rash, shortness of breath, swelling, numbness, or paralysis. However, the majority of individuals with tick bites develop no symptoms, and many people do not remember getting bitten.

<P> DevOps is a software development method that emphasizes communication, collaboration (information sharing and web service usage), integration, automation, and measurement of cooperation between software developers and other IT professionals. DevOps integration targets product delivery, quality testing, feature development, and maintenance releases in order to improve reliability and security and provide faster development and deployment cycles. <P> 1 On Wikipedia: 2 DevOps (a portmanteau of development and operations) is a software development method that stresses communication, collaboration and integration between software developers and Information Technology(IT) professionals. software development method doesn't do DevOps justice. Like this one. DevOps is the blending of tasks performed by a company's application development and systems operations teams. The term DevOps is being used in several ways. <P> To only say that there are key roles in DevOps is misleading, says Neeharika Nagisetty, group product marketing manager at Vantiv, a provider of payment processing services. The key to DevOps is greater collaboration between engineering and operations.. Because DevOps relies heavily on automated systems, this role is key. Sometimes called integration specialists, automation architects analyze, design, and implement strategies for continuous deployments while ensuring high availability on production and pre-production systems, says Nagisetty. <P> The role of Operations can mean a lot of things and even different things to different people. DevOps is becoming more and more popular but a lot of people are confused on the topic of who does what. <P> Croker agrees. In a DevOps-led organization, there are some new roles...but it's far more important that cultural change is achieved in order to address the challenges of IT delivery and IT operations existing in silos, he says.

what is vitamin a good for
|
<P> 1 Vitamin A obtained from colorful fruits and vegetables is in the form of provitamin A carotenoids, which are converted to retinol by the body after the food is ingested. 2 Good food sources of provitamin A carotenoids include carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach, kale and cantaloupes. <P> What is Vitamin A Good for. Vitamins are essential nutrients required to carry out most of the important functions in the body. Vitamins are divided into 6 types, viz. Vitamin A, B, C, D, E and K. Among them, vitamins A, D, E and K are fat-soluble ones while vitamins B and C are water-soluble vitamins. <P> Vitamin A is essential for good health. It promotes growth, the immune system, reproduction, and vision. However, recent research suggests that too much vitamin A, particularly in the form of retinol, may be bad for your bones. <P> Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that has several important functions in the body. 1 It helps cells reproduce normally, a process called cellular differentiation. 2 It is essential for good vision. 3 It is needed for the proper development of an embryo and fetus. <P> Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that is naturally present in many foods. Vitamin A is important for normal vision, the immune system, and reproduction. Vitamin A also helps the heart, lungs, kidneys, and other organs work properly. There are two different types of vitamin A. The first type, preformed vitamin A, is found in meat, poultry, fish, and dairy products. The second type, provitamin A, is found in fruits, vegetables, and other plant-based products. The most common type of provitamin A in foods and dietary supplements is beta-carotene. <P> Beta-carotene is a precursor for vitamin A. The body needs to convert it to retinol or vitamin A for use. Beta-carotene is found naturally in mostly orange and dark green plant foods, such as carrots, sweet potatoes, mangos, and kale. <P> What is Vitamin A Deficiency. The foremost answer to the question what is vitamin A good for, is to improve vision. Therefore, lack of vitamin A in one's diet can lead to poor vision. The diseases caused by lack of a particular vitamin / nutrient in the diet are known as deficiency diseases.

what is vision statement
|
<P> Organizations summarize their goals and objectives in mission and vision statements. Both of these serve different purposes for a company but are often confused with each other. While a mission statement describes what a company wants to do now, a vision statement outlines what a company wants to be in the future. <P> A vision statement is an organization's declaration of its mid-term and long-term goals. Vision statements are often confused with mission statements. <P> Vision statement vs. mission statement. A vision statement should not be confused with a mission statement. Mission statements are present-based statements designed to convey a sense of why the company exists to both members of the company and the external community. It's important that the vision statement be compelling not just to the high-level execs of your company, but to all employees. Here are some tips to keep in mind: 1 When describing goals, project five to 10 years in the future. <P> A vision statement, or simply a vision, is a public declaration that schools or other educational organizations use to describe their high-level goals for the future—what they hope to achieve if they successfully fulfill their organizational purpose or mission. A mission statement, or simply a mission, is a public declaration that schools or other educational organizations use to describe their founding purpose and major organizational commitments—i.e., what they do and why they do it. <P> Definition. A vision statement is a description of where a company or individual wants to be in the future. It also explains what the person or business wants to do or get done. These types of statements are usually short, with many being just one sentence. A vision statement provides direction for the future. A vision statement can give someone professional goals to pursue. People may craft a vision statement as a way to determine the best way to pursue goals. <P> How to write a vision statement. Writing your vision statement is a time for creativity, ambition and fun, but the task should be approached seriously. There is a process to this, and it's not usually quick or simple, Brownson said. It's important that the vision statement be compelling not just to the high-level execs of your company, but to all employees. Here are some tips to keep in mind: 1 When describing goals, project five to 10 years in the future. <P> The term “vision statement” refers to an explanation, usually in written form, of what a person or business wants to be or get done at some later point in time. A vision statement provides direction for the future. A vision statement can give someone professional goals to pursue. People may craft a vision statement as a way to determine the best way to pursue goals. <P> A vision statement is a declaration of an organization 's objectives, ideally based on economic foresight, intended to guide its internal decision-making. 1 1 Definition and structure. A vision statement is not limited to business organizations and may also be used by non-profit or governmental entities. A consensus does not exist on the characteristics of a good or bad vision statement. Commonly cited traits include: 1 concise: able to be easily remembered and repeated. <P> A vision statement is a company's road map, indicating both what the company wants to become and guiding transformational initiatives by setting a defined direction for the company's growth.

specific types of sedimentary rocks
|
<P> Sedimentary rocks can be categorized into three groups based on sediment type. Most sedimentary rocks are formed by the lithification of weathered rock debris that has been physically transported and deposited. Some types of clastic sedimentary rocks are composed of weathered rock material like gravel, sand, silt, and clay. Others can be constructed from the break up and deposition of shells, coral and other marine organisms by wave-action and ocean currents. <P> Sedimentary Rock Examples. Common clastic sedimentary rocks are listed on the table below. They are listed by grain size in decending order. Grain size is one factor in classifying sedimentary rocks .Clicking on the name of the rock will bring up a larger picture and a description of the rock type in a new window. <P> Such material, called detritus, consists of fragments of rocks and minerals. When the energy of the transporting current is not strong enough to carry these particles, the particles drop out in the process of sedimentation. This type of sedimentary deposition is referred to as clastic sedimentation. LIthification of sediment into sedimentary rocks takes place after the sediment has been deposited and buried. The processes by which the sediment becomes lithified into a hard sedimentary rock is called diagenesis and includes all physical, chemical and biological processes that act on the sediment. <P> Examples of this type of sedimentary rock include conglomerate and sandstone. Scientists sometimes call this general group of sedimentary rocks clastic. The remaining types of sedimentary rocks are created either from chemical precipitation and crystallization, or by the lithification of once living organic matter. Some types of clastic sedimentary rocks are composed of weathered rock material like gravel, sand, silt, and clay. Others can be constructed from the break up and deposition of shells, coral and other marine organisms by wave-action and ocean currents. <P> Shale is made from silt particles cemented together. It is similar to siltstone but with even finer grain size, The table below shows examples of common chemical sedimentary rocks. Clicking on the name of the rock will bring up a larger picture and a description of the rock type in a new window. Grain size is one factor in classifying sedimentary rocks . <P> Picture Gallery of the Most Common Rock Types. Breccia is a clastic sedimentary rock that is composed of large (over two millimeter diameter) angular fragments. The spaces between the large fragments can be filled with a matrix of smaller particles or a mineral cement which binds the rock together. Chemical sedimentary rocks, such as rock salt, iron ore, chert, flint, some dolomites, and some limestones, form when dissolved materials precipitate from solution. Organic sedimentary rocks such as coal, some dolomites, and some limestones, form from the accumulation of plant or animal debris. Photos and brief descriptions of some common sedimentary rock types are shown on this page. Coal is an organic sedimentary rock that forms mainly from plant debris <P> Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition of material at the Earth 's surface and within bodies of water. The sedimentary rock cover of the continents of the Earth's crust is extensive, but the total contribution of sedimentary rocks is estimated to be only 8% of the total volume of the crust. Sedimentary rocks are only a thin veneer over a crust consisting mainly of igneous and metamorphic rocks. <P> The three main types, or classes, of rock are sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous and the differences among them have to do with how they are formed. Sedimentary. Sedimentary rocks are formed from particles of sand, shells, pebbles, and other fragments of material. Together, all these particles are called sediment. Gradually, the sediment accumulates in layers and over a long period of time hardens into rock. Examples of this rock type include gneiss and marble. Igneous. Igneous rocks are formed when magma (molten rock deep within the earth) cools and hardens. Sometimes the magma cools inside the earth, and other times it erupts onto the surface from volcanoes (in this case, it is called lava). <P> Sedimentary rocks are formed by the accumulation of sediments. There are three basic types of sedimentary rocks. Clastic sedimentary rocks such as breccia, conglomerate, sandstone, siltstone, and shale are formed from mechanical weathering debris. Chemical sedimentary rocks, such as rock salt, iron ore, chert, flint, some dolomites, and some limestones, form when dissolved materials precipitate from solution. Organic sedimentary rocks such as coal, some dolomites, and some limestones, form from the accumulation of plant or animal debris.

muscle damage fractured fibula
|
<P> Tibia (Shinbone) Shaft Fractures. The tibia, or shinbone, is the most common fractured long bone in your body. The long bones include the femur, humerus, tibia, and fibula. A tibial shaft fracture occurs along the length of the bone, below the knee and above the ankle. <P> Fractures of the long bones of the lower leg are fairly common but fibula shaft fractures usually occur in combination with a tibial fracture or in isolation as the result of a direct blow or from twisting actions. The fibula is less commonly fractured as it is not the main weight bearing bone in the lower leg. This usually involves fracture of the medial malleolus, of the proximal fibula or fibular shaft and damage to the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis. Rickets is a disease of the growing long bones of the leg that affects children and adolescents. It is caused by the failure of osteoid to calcify in a growing person. <P> The fibula (/ˈfɪbjʉlə/) or calf bone is a leg bone located on the lateral side of the tibia, with which it is connected above and below. It is the smaller of the two bones, and, in proportion to its length, the slenderest of all the long bones. <P> Fibula Fracture. A acute fracture of the fibula bone in the lower leg occurs as a result of a direct trauma or impact to the leg or ankle. Stress fractures can also occur from overuse or repetitive impacts. Symptoms of fibula stress fractures tend to include a gradual build up of pain on the outside of the lower leg which eases with rest and increases with activity. It may be tender over the point of the fracture and there may be aching or throbbing pain at night. <P> The fibula is one of two long bones in the lower leg. A long bone is defined as one whose body is longer than it is wide, with growth plates (epiphysis) at either end, having a hard outer surface of compact bone and a spongy inner surface known as cencellous bone containing bone marrow. This usually involves fracture of the medial malleolus, of the proximal fibula or fibular shaft and damage to the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis. Rickets is a disease of the growing long bones of the leg that affects children and adolescents. It is caused by the failure of osteoid to calcify in a growing person. <P> Usually, when the shaft of the tibia is broken the fibula, the smaller bone of the lower leg, is broken as well. This bone serves mainly as an anchor point for muscle and hardly bears any weight. As a result it does not need to be perfectly straight when it heals. In the case of an isolated fracture of the fibula you may be able to walk, but with nearly all other fractures it is impossible to bear weight. Within a few minutes of the injury the leg will swell up. If there have been injuries to the nerves or arteries the foot may be numb or cold. <P> Click to read more below. The fibula is the long, thin and lateral bone of the lower leg. It runs parallel to the tibia, or shin bone, and plays a significant role in stabilizing the ankle and supporting the muscles of the lower leg. Compared to the tibia, the fibula is about the same length, but is considerably thinner. <P> FRACTURES OF THETIBIA AND FIBULA Fractures of the tibia and fibula are a special concern because missingearly warning signs can result in a useless leg.The tibia and the fibula are the two long bones of the calf. Most fractures of the tibia and fibula (tib-fib fractures) healwithout complication, and the patient is able to resume his or hernormal activities. However, potentially serious complications can develop, and you mustbe aware of their early warning signs. <P> Fractures of the lower end of the tibia and fibula are covered in ankle fractures. Fractures of the upper end of the tibia are covered in knee fractures.The tibia bone is the largest and most important bone of the lower leg. It is quite vulnerable to injury. In the case of an isolated fracture of the fibula you may be able to walk, but with nearly all other fractures it is impossible to bear weight. Within a few minutes of the injury the leg will swell up. If there have been injuries to the nerves or arteries the foot may be numb or cold.

what is used to detect earthquakes
|
<P> Today, vibrations caused by the shock waves are still used to detect any movement, but the equipment is far more sophisticated. Many modern examples are so delicate that they are installed underground away from other sources of vibration such as traffic and even footsteps. The Mercalli scale is based on direct observations of this type. During a series of earthquakes in the Mississippi Valley, USA during 1811 and 1812 people were awakened by the rattling of ornaments and walls, and church bells in Boston, almost 2000km away, rung unattended due to the vibrations. <P> A tsunami warning system (TWS) is used to detect tsunamis in advance and issue warnings to prevent loss of life and damage. It is made up of two equally important components: a network of sensors to detect tsunamis and a communications infrastructure to issue timely alarms to permit evacuation of the coastal areas. <P> Seismometers are instruments that measure motion of the ground, including those of seismic waves generated by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and other seismic sources. Records of seismic waves allow seismologists to map the interior of the Earth, and locate and measure the size of these different sources. Seismograph is another Greek term from seismos seismós and, γράφω, graphō gráphō. To draw it is often used to, mean seismometer though it is more applicable to the older instruments in which the measuring and recording of ground motion were combined than to, modern systems in which these functions. are separated <P> What is a seismograph. A seismograph, or seismometer, is an instrument used to detect and record seismic waves. Seismic waves are propagating vibrations that carry energy from the source of an earthquake outward in all directions. They travel through the interior of the Earth and can be measured with sensitive detectors called seismographs. Video: How a seismograph works. The magnitude of an earthquake is determined by readings of the seismic waves resulting from the vibrations generated by the seismic source. Sensitive seismographs, which greatly magnify these ground motions, can detect strong earthquakes from sources anywhere in the world. <P> seismograph. A seismograph, or seismometer, is an instrument used to detect and record earthquakes. Generally, it consists of a mass attached to a fixed base. During an earthquake, the base moves and the mass does not. The motion of the base with respect to the mass is commonly transformed into an electrical voltage. <P> A seismograph is the device that scientists use to measure earthquakes. The goal of a seismograph is to accurately record the motion of the ground during a quake. If you live in a city, you may have noticed that buildings sometimes shake when a big truck or a subway train rolls by. Seismographs detect earthquakes and what they do is they show on a graph what movements the earthquake made. Source(s): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismograph... <P> Report Abuse. Seismometers (in Greek seismos = earthquake and metero = measure) are used by seismologists to measure and record the size and force of seismic waves. By studying seismic waves, geologists can map the interior of the Earth, and measure and locate earthquakes and other ground motions. Best Answer: Seismographs and other kinds of seismometers, generally, although there is a pretty wide variety of those and how they function. The old fashioned kind have a weight suspended pendulum-style that remains stationary, and have a slowly rolling drum or roll of paper (usually) underneath the pendulum. <P> Detecting an earthquake is much easier than predicting one. At its most simple level, a powerful earthquake can be felt by people in the area, and the damage it causes can be seen. The Mercalli scale is based on direct observations of this type. During a series of earthquakes in the Mississippi Valley, USA during 1811 and 1812 people were awakened by the rattling of ornaments and walls, and church bells in Boston, almost 2000km away, rung unattended due to the vibrations.

where does zinc come from
|
<P> The predominant regions for zinc metal production, however, are China, Western Europe and Asia. It follows that a major world trade exists in zinc concentrates, mainly out of Australia, Latin America and Canada and into Asia (including China, which produces more zinc than it can mine) and Western Europe. <P> Zinc comes from natural mineral deposits of ore in the earth s crust. The deposits may be close to the surface, in which case they will be mined from an open pit. Alternatively, they may be some distance underground and cannot be mined directly from the surface. Approximately two thirds of the world s zinc production is derived from purely underground mining. <P> Zinc oxide is the metal zinc that has been oxidized. The chemical formula is ZnO, 1 zinc atom and 1 oxygen atom held together by an ionic bond. Zinc oxide does occur in nature as the mineral zincite, but it is quite rare and commercially unavailable. <P> It is also found as an element (in trace amounts) in plants and animals. Humans require Zinc as part of a balanced diet, this is obtained from foods such as: oysters, beans, spinach, nuts, oats, red meat and milk. <P> Brass, for example, is a mixture of copper and 20%-45% zinc. Name: The derivation of zinc is unknown but it comes from the similar German word zinker that is used for the element zink. The identified zinc resources worldwide are estimated to total over 1.9 billion tons. <P> Represented in the periodic table as Zn, zinc is a transition metal, grouped with cadmium and mercury. With the middling atomic number 30, it has five stable isotopes of atomic weight from the dominant zinc 64 to zinc 70, plus an extra 25 radioisotopes. <P> Zinc is the 24th most abundant mineral on earth and is found in the form of sphalerite, an ore which is mined. It is also found as an element (in trace amounts) in … plants and animals. Humans require Zinc as part of a balanced diet, this is obtained from foods such as: oysters, beans, spinach, nuts, oats, red meat and milk.

director and officer definition
|
<P> D&O insurance is usually purchased by the company itself, even when it is for the sole benefit of directors and officers. Reasons for doing so are many, but commonly would assist a company in attracting and retaining directors. The insurance is closely related to corporate governance, corporations law, and the fiduciary duty owed to shareholders or other beneficiaries. Under the United States business judgment rule, the directors and officers are granted broad discretion in their business activities. <P> Such coverage can extend to defence costs arising out of criminal and regulatory investigations/trials as well; in fact, often civil and criminal actions are brought against directors/officers simultaneously. Intentional illegal acts, however, are typically not covered under D&O policies. It has become closely associated with broader management liability insurance, which covers liabilities of the corporation itself as well as the personal liabilities for the directors and officers of the corporation. The insurance is closely related to corporate governance, corporations law, and the fiduciary duty owed to shareholders or other beneficiaries. Under the United States business judgment rule, the directors and officers are granted broad discretion in their business activities. <P> Anyone who serves as a director or an officer of a for-profit business or nonprofit organization may be at risk of a personal claim as a result of that position. A directors and officers liability policy insures them against personal losses. It can also help reimburse the business or nonprofit for the legal fees or other costs it may incur in defending those individuals against a lawsuit. The policies are generally purchased by the organization to cover a group of individuals rather than by the individuals themselves. Policies can be written to insure against a variety of hazards, but they generally make exclusions for fraud or other criminal activity. <P> In the context of corporate and commercial law, an officer is a member of a corporation's management team, typically reporting to a director. Officers are not, in most circumstances, eligible for organization into a union. An officer is the agent of the corporation entrusted by it with the exercise of some portion of its corporate powers, and the transaction of the business for which it exists, and the performance of its corporate duties. <P> A chief executive officer (CEO in American English) or managing director (MD in British English) describes the position of the most senior corporate officer, executive, or administrator in charge of managing a non-profit or for-profit organization. <P> A director is the head of an organization, either elected or appointed, who generally has certain powers and duties relating to management or administration. A corporation's board of directors is composed of a group of people who are elected by the shareholders to make important company policy decisions. n. a member of the governing board of a corporation or association elected or re-elected at annual meetings of the shareholders or members. As a group the directors are responsible for the policy making, but not day-to-day operation, which is handled by officers and other managers. In some cases, a director may also be an officer, but need not be a shareholder. Most states require a minimum of three directors on corporate board <P> Those definitions are legend. Some defer to a definition of officer as including the higher and lower echelons of directors, and all other management-level staff. Others defer to that segment of a corporation 's management staff under directors but above employees. An officer is the agent of the corporation entrusted by it with the exercise of some portion of its corporate powers, and the transaction of the business for which it exists, and the performance of its corporate duties. <P> Depending on the company, the board of directors and officers can be made up of the same individuals. The board of directors and officers often work closely together, but play very different roles in the corporation. Differences between Directors and Officers. While directors and officers have some similar duties, and in some corporations an individual can hold both positions, there are two significant characteristics officers have that directors do not. They have the authority to legally bind <P> The board of directors appoints corporate officers. The corporate officers usually consist of a president, one or more vice presidents, the secretary, and a treasurer. In larger enterprises, there may be hundreds of officers.

what are the characteristics of a supervolcano
|
<P> The term supervolcano implies a volcanic center that has had an eruption of magnitude 8 on the Volcano Explosivity Index (VEI), meaning the measured deposits for that eruption is greater than 1,000 cubic kilometers (240 cubic miles). The VEI scale was created as a general measurement of the explosivity of an eruption. The docudrama Supervolcano dramatically explores the impact of a large caldera-forming eruption at Yellowstone. The scale of the portrayed eruption is similar to the eruption of the Huckleberry Ridge Tuff at Yellowstone 2.1 million years ago. <P> Composite volcanoes. Characteristics of a composite volcano. 1 Composite volcanoes are made up of alternating layers of lava and ash (other volcanoes just consist of lava). 2 They are usually found at destructive [destructive boundaries: The boundary of two plates which are moving towards each other. Shield volcanoes. The characteristics of a shield volcano. 1 Shield volcanoes are usually found at constructive [constructive boundaries: Areas between two crustal plates that are moving away from each other, causing new crustal rocks to form. <P> Yellowstone. A hydrothermal feature at Yellowstone. Yellowstone is one example of a supervolcano. Three huge eruptions have happened in the last 3 million years. the last eruption was 630,000 years ago, and was 1,000 times bigger than the Mount St Helens eruption in 1980. 1 it erupts at least 1,000 km 3 of material (a large volcano erupts around 1 km 3). 2 it forms a depression, called a caldera [caldera: A cauldron / depression shaped tectonic feature usually formed from the collapse of a magma chamber. <P> The essential feature of a composite volcano is a conduit system through which magma from a reservoir deep in the Earth's crust rises to the surface. The volcano is built up by the accumulation of material erupted through the conduit and increases in size as lava, cinders, ash, etc., are added to its slopes. Shield volcanoes, the third type of volcano, are built almost entirely of fluid lava flows. Flow after flow pours out in all directions from a central summit vent, or group of vents, building a broad, gently sloping cone of flat, domical shape, with a profile much like that of a warrior's shield <P> A caldera is a crater formed after the eruption of a volcano. Some characteristics would be depressed ground and a depression that is located over a hot spot where a volcano u … sed to be. The volcano is built up by the accumulation of material erupted through the conduit and increases in size as lava, cinders, ash, etc., are added to its slopes. Shield volcanoes, the third type of volcano, are built almost entirely of fluid lava flows. <P> A volcano is :An opening in the Earth's crust from which lava, ash, and hot gases flow or are ejected during an eruption.A usually cone-shaped mountain formed by the materials … issuing from such an opening. Volcanoes are surficial manifestations of thermal processes occurring inside the Earth. The volcano is built up by the accumulation of material erupted through the conduit and increases in size as lava, cinders, ash, etc., are added to its slopes. Shield volcanoes, the third type of volcano, are built almost entirely of fluid lava flows. <P> A supervolcano is a volcano on a massive scale. It is different from a volcano because: 1 it erupts at least 1,000 km 3 of material (a large volcano erupts around 1 km 3). 2 it forms a depression, called a caldera [caldera: A cauldron / depression shaped tectonic feature usually formed from the collapse of a magma chamber. ] ( 3 a volcano forms a cone shape). 1 it erupts at least 1,000 km 3 of material (a large volcano erupts around 1 km 3). 2 it forms a depression, called a caldera [caldera: A cauldron / depression shaped tectonic feature usually formed from the collapse of a magma chamber. <P> An eruption is classified as a VEI 8 if the measured volume of deposits is greater than 1,000 cubic kilometers (240 cubic miles). Therefore a supervolcano is a volcano that at one point in time erupted more than 1,000 cubic kilometers of deposits. Yellowstone, like many other supervolcanoes, has also had much smaller eruptions. The cartoon shows a comparison of eruption sizes, including the three largest from Yellowstone. The docudrama Supervolcano dramatically explores the impact of a large caldera-forming eruption at Yellowstone. The scale of the portrayed eruption is similar to the eruption of the Huckleberry Ridge Tuff at Yellowstone 2.1 million years ago. <P> Caldera Volcanoes. View a satellite map of the Yellowstone Caldera. Caldera volcanoes are the Extreme Volcanoes. These are the most powerful and catastrophic types of volcanoes in a category by themselves because of the unique way in which they form. This type of volcano is shaped more like an inverse volcano. An enormous magma chamber bulges up beneath the ground from the extremely high pressures of the trapped gases within.

how much does it cost to put in central heating and air
|
<P> Most homeowners report spending between $3,675 and $7,155 to have air conditioning installed. This price is more typical of a central A/C unit installation rather than a window air conditioner addition which typically averages about $300. Your total cost for the job will depend on the type of system you choose. Many central air conditioning systems use the furnace blower to distribute cool air through the home. If you do not have a central heating system installed, it is cost-effective to install a heating and air conditioning (HVAC) system at the same time. <P> The price to install central air conditioner units with heating unit is between $6,500 and $15,000. The HVAC installation costs are for complete heating and cooling system and labor cost. To get little more accurate price in your area, check out the links below. If you’re planning to buy air conditioners with higher seer rating and more Ton the HVAC price will be higher than this. Central ac units with 5 tons and 18 seer rating would cost about 3 to 5 grand or even more. This is just air conditioner units. It does not include the heating units. <P> If you already have a central heating system with all the duct work,you need one ton of cooling per 1000 square feet.The average home of 1500 square feet or less would need a one and a half ton A/C unit.You should be able to get one installed for under $2,000. The cost of a high efficiency 3 Ton central air conditioner for the first floor only with new furnace housing would be about $9,000 without the extra ductwork if you don't have any. <P> Additional costs: 1 It typically takes a day or two to replace the heat source in an existing central heating system, and a week or more to install a new central heating system, depending on the size and layout of the house and the complexity of the system. 1 A building/mechanical permit is usually required to replace a furnace. 2 Permit and inspection fees are typically about $50-$300, but can cost more in some locations. <P> How much will it cost to install central heating and air in a 1400 square foot home? The cost of installing a central heating unit varies depending on where you live. On average you can expect to pay about $5,000 for a small system capable of cooling a 1,4 … 00 square foot home. Answered. In Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning. There is not an average cost to buy a central heat and air unit. You will need to purchase a unit based on the square footage of your home, the amount of insulation in place a … nd whether or not you have duct work in place. The price range starts at $1200 and goes up with size of your home. <P> Pricing for air conditioning will vary depending on a number of factors, but, in the long run, it will always be a better option than sticking to window air units. The national average cost is between $4,500 and $6,200, but it could be much higher (or lower) depending on your individual situation. Generally, ductwork can tack on additional $2,000 to $3,000, and that will vary depending on the home. However, if you are simply replacing your air conditioning unit, then there may be little to no added cost for this component. Adding other updates, like a new thermostat, may also increase the total price. <P> 1 It typically takes a day or two to replace the heat source in an existing central heating system, and a week or more to install a new central heating system, depending on the size and layout of the house and the complexity of the system. 2 A replacement project should include removal and proper disposal of the old unit. 1 A building/mechanical permit is usually required to replace a furnace. 2 Permit and inspection fees are typically about $50-$300, but can cost more in some locations. <P> The cost of installing a central heating unit varies depending on where you live. On average you can expect to pay about $5,000 for a small system capable of cooling a 1,400 square foot home. Central heating and air conditioning installations can cost between $2,000 and $5,000. The cost depends on where you live and the system you are getting installed. <P> The cost to install a window air conditioner averages between $150 and $300, depending on the size you need. Installing a window air conditioning unit can bring added comfort for a reasonable price, but it will be less powerful than a central air conditioning system. Many central air conditioning systems use the furnace blower to distribute cool air through the home. If you do not have a central heating system installed, it is cost-effective to install a heating and air conditioning (HVAC) system at the same time.

name of strait between sea of marmara
|
<P> Black Sea. Black Sea (Karadeniz in Turkish) lies to the north of Turkey, bordering with two regions; Marmara and Black Sea. Besides Turkey, other countries that circle the Black Sea are; Bulgaria, Romania, Russia, Ukraine, and Georgia. It's connected to the Sea of Marmara with the Bosphorus Strait in the southwest <P> Bosphorus or Bosporus (βόσπορος) is the narrow strait between the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara. Bosphorus, seen from Topkapi. The Bosphorus is 32 kilometer long and, at its narrowest point, 550 meter wide. Together with the Hellespont, which connects the Sea of Marmara with the Aegean Sea, the Bosphorus is often called The Straits. From a geological point of view, the zone is notoriously active. <P> Bosporus Strait. The Bosporus Strait (or Bosphorus) connects the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara. It also separates Asian Turkey from European Turkey (Trace), thus it separates the two continents. Bordered on both sides by the massive city of Istanbul, the strait is one of the planet's most strategic waterways. <P> 1 The Bosphorus (also spelled Bosporus; Turkish: Boğazici boğaziçi İstanbul Istanbul, Boğazı Istanbul), strait about 30 (kilometers 19) mi long and only 700 (2,300 2300) ft, wide connects The sea Of marmara with The Black sea in the. north The Turkish Straits have been governed since 1936 by the Montreux Convention. 1 <P> Like the Bosphorus, it separates Europe (the Gallipoli peninsula) from the mainland of Asia (Anatolia). The strait is an international waterway, and together with the Sea of Marmara and the Bosporus, the Dardanelles connects the Black Sea to the Mediterranean Sea. The Çanakkale çanakkale Suspension bridge has been, planned Connecting (sarıcay sarıçay a Çanakkale Of) canakkale çanakkale Province on the Asian side to Kilitbahir on. the european side <P> Sea Of Marmara. The Sea of Marmara, a northeastern extension of the Mediterranean Sea, separates Asian Turkey from European Turkey (Trace), thus it separates the two continents. Bordered completely by Turkey, it connects to the Aegean Sea via the Dardanelles Strait, and to the Black Sea through the Bosporus Strait <P> Aegean Sea (Ege Denizi in Turkish) is a part of Mediterranean Sea lying between Turkey and Greece. There is Mediterranean Sea to the south, Greek Peninsula to the west, Anatolia and part of Thrace to the east. It's connected to the Sea of Marmara by Dardanelles Strait to the northeast. Black Sea (Karadeniz in Turkish) lies to the north of Turkey, bordering with two regions; Marmara and Black Sea. Besides Turkey, other countries that circle the Black Sea are; Bulgaria, Romania, Russia, Ukraine, and Georgia. It's connected to the Sea of Marmara with the Bosphorus Strait in the southwe <P> Bosphorus is a natural strait connecting the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara, thus being a very strategic waterway. It was a river in the valley during the Tertiary period of the continents, which was drowned by the sea at the end of this period. Bosphorus in Turkish is known as Bogazici, meaning inner strait. Since the ancient times it held always an important role because of its strategic location, being the only passage from the Black Sea into the Mediterranean, along with the Dardanelles strait.

what is nuclear waste stored in
|
<P> Hazardous radioactive waste is produced by nuclear power generation in the US, and no accepted permanent storage solution for this waste currently exists. High-level waste is currently in temporary storage that is designed to be effective for only a small percentage of the radioactive lifetime of said waste. <P> Plans to store the majority of our nation’s spent nuclear fuel and other highly radioactive waste at a central repository underneath Yucca Mountain in the Nevada desert 80 miles from Las Vegas were first hatched in the mid-1980s. <P> In fact, only 8 of the nuclear waste elements have isotopes which are of radioactive concern after 50 years.Of those, only 3 of the 15 Rare Earths in nuclear waste are detectably radioactive after 50 years (Promethium, Gadolinium, and Terbium). <P> The commission is charged with recommending safe, long-term options for storage, processing, and disposal of civilian and military spent nuclear fuel from power plants and high-level radioactive waste. The focus is on finding an alternative to Yucca Mountain, which would have stored 70,000 metric tons of nuclear waste. <P> Spent nuclear fuel was only intended to be stored at the reactor site for 3-5 years while it was cooled in storage pools. The U.S. follows a once-through nuclear fuel cycle strategy which creates a constantly increasing inventory of spent nuclear fuel in wet storage at reactor sites. <P> Radioactive (or nuclear) waste is a byproduct from nuclear reactors, fuel processing plants, hospitals and research facilities. Radioactive waste is also generated while decommissioning and dismantling nuclear reactors and other nuclear facilities. There are two broad classifications: high-level or low-level waste. <P> Used Nuclear Fuel Storage. Used nuclear fuel is stored at the nation's nuclear power plants in steel-lined, concrete pools or basins filled with water or in massive, airtight steel or concrete-and-steel canisters. <P> High-level radioactive waste primarily is uranium fuel that has been used in a nuclear power reactor and is spent, or no longer efficient in producing electricity. Spent fuel is thermally hot as well as highly radioactive and requires remote handling and shielding. <P> High-level waste is full of highly radioactive fission products, most of which are relatively short-lived. This is a concern since if the waste is stored, perhaps in deep geological storage, over many years the fission products decay, decreasing the radioactivity of the waste and making the plutonium easier to access.

<P> Caddyshack director and co-writer Harold Ramis was also a co-writer of the 1978 National Lampoon comedy classic Animal House, along with eventual Caddyshack co-writer and producer Douglas Kenney. Held to only a $3 million budget, their film of frat-house shenanigans went on to gross $141 million at the box office. <P> Caddyshack was written by Brian Doyle-Murray. In Cinderella Story: My Life in Golf, Bill, his brother, writes The film is the gripping tale of the Murray brothers' first experiments with employment ... [Brian] wrote the events of his and my brother Ed's caddie life in a way that showed he'd paid attention.. <P> The scene in the opening credits where Danny Noonan rides his bicycle across a street with train tracks was filmed at the intersection of Mission Street and Meridian Avenue in South Pasadena, California. The train tracks are still there, but now serve the light rail line running from downtown L.A. to Pasadena. <P> Caddyshack Filming Locations. Greenskeeper Carl Spackler (Bill Murray) is about to start World War III against a gopher. Pompous Judge Smails (Ted Knight) plays to win, but his nubile niece, Lacey Underall (Cindy Morgan) wants to score her own way. Playboy Ty Webb (Chevy Chase) shoots perfect golf by becoming the ball. <P> It wasn't during the filming of Caddyshack but during Saturday Night Live. Murray started on Saturday Night Live in the fall of 1977. Chevy Chase had left the show at the end of the 1977 season and his movie Foul Play was due to be released in mid 1978. The fight took place February 18, 1978. <P> Caddyshack is a 1980 American sports comedy film directed by Harold Ramis and written by Brian Doyle-Murray, Ramis and Douglas Kenney. It stars Michael O'Keefe, Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight, and Bill Murray. <P> FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Despite sporadic fall showers and the muggy Florida sun, President Barack Obama hit the greens Saturday with a former NBA star at the ritzy golf club where Caddyshack was filmed. <P> Thirty-four years after the filming of Caddyshack, the AV Club went to see the country club where it was shot. Although the story was set in the midwest, the location was the Rolling Hills Golf Course near Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. <P> Caddyshack was filmed on location at the Boca Raton Hotel & Country Club, Boca Raton and The Rolling Hills Golf & Tennis Club, Davie, Florida, USA.

what is rose gold
|
<P> Rose Gold Engagement Rings. It's referred to as rose gold because of the pinkish color of the metal. The reason for this “pinkish” color is due to the presence of copper that was mixed in with the yellow gold; hence rose gold is not a pure form of gold but an alloy. One of the most significant and highly used gold types is Rose Gold. It is widely used in the jewelry making and is preferred by a lot of people because of its unique and beautiful rich color. Rose gold jewelry stands out among the rest and thus, is becoming more popular with each passing day. <P> Purity of Rose Gold. R ose Gold is no different than than yellow or white gold when it comes to purity. Pure 24k gold is much too soft to be used as casual jewelry. That is why other metals like Silver, Copper, Nickel, Palladium or Zinc is added to pure gold to make it more durable. One of the most significant and highly used gold types is Rose Gold. It is widely used in the jewelry making and is preferred by a lot of people because of its unique and beautiful rich color. Rose gold jewelry stands out among the rest and thus, is becoming more popular with each passing day. <P> Rose gold is created by increasing the copper-colored alloys mixed with the gold and decreasing the silver-colored alloys. 14K rose gold contains as much pure gold as 14K yellow gold but, because of the increased copper, is slightly pinker in color. Rose gold is available in 9K, 14K and in 18K gold. Ordering Rose Gold Jewelry-Online Before ordering rose gold jewelry, you should be familiar with the color of rose gold. <P> Rose gold, also known as pink gold and red gold, was popular in Russia at the beginning of the nineteenth century, and was also known as Russian gold although this term is now obsolete.

Rose gold is actually an alloy composed of pure gold mixed with copper. © Alex Smith / Fotolia. There is no specific guideline for copper content that needs to be met in order for a piece to be considered rose gold. Generally, the more copper in an alloy, the more pronounced its rose color will be. <P> Rose Gold. Rose gold is a mix of pure gold and copper alloy and it is commonly used for specialized jewelry. Rose gold, also known as pink gold and red gold, was popular in Russia at the beginning of the nineteenth century, and was also known as Russian gold although this term is now obsolete. <P> In terms of the amount of gold found in rose gold as compared to white or yellow gold, it is the same. There is as much pure gold in a 14K rose gold ring as there is in a 14K yellow gold ring. The difference is in the alloys used – more copper colored alloys are used in the rose gold jewelry to give it the pink color. Rose gold jewelry used to be quite rare and harder to find. If you are looking for a unique piece of jewelry, then consider rose gold as an option. The value is the same, but it’s uniqueness makes it extra special.

what is nmp
|
<P> T he toxic effects of NMP in humans have not been well studied. Most of the information comes from animal testing, not from human use of NMP. Animal tests are often used to determine effects of chemicals on human health. REpRODUCTIVE SYSTEM NMP caused delayed growth in the offspring of animals exposed during pregnancy in several studies. 2 LIVER AND kIDNEYS NMP is unlikely to cause liver or kidney damage if there is no noticeable effect on the nervous system. However, like other solvents, long-term exposure to NMP and drinking alcohol can increase your risk of liver damage. CANCER NMP did not cause cancer when tested in animals. <P> Navy Manning Plan (NMP) Tutorial. NMP is generally known as “distributable” inventory, but is more accurately a reflection of “distributed” inventory.

should i get my cat allergy tested?
|
<P> Allergy Tests. Guide. Allergy testing involves having a skin or blood test to find out what substance, or allergen, may trigger an allergic response in a person. Skin tests are usually done because they are rapid, reliable, and generally less expensive than blood tests, but either type of test may be used. <P> It’s important to see a veterinary dermatologist for an allergy test if your cat has itchy or irritated skin. The test of choice is an intradermal skin test, as blood allergy tests are not considered as reliable. <P> Allergy tests may help find allergies to things you eat, touch, or breathe in. They are usually skin or blood tests. However, allergy tests alone are generally not enough. It is important to have a doctor’s exam and medical history first to help diagnose allergies. <P> The doctor should ask you about your medical history and make sure you get the right tests. If your medical history suggests that you have an allergy, your doctor might refer you to an allergist or immunologist (doctors who specialize in allergies) for testing. 1 A skin test is the most common kind of allergy test. <P> 1 Intradermal test. 2 During this test, a small amount of the allergen solution is injected into the skin. 3 An intradermal allergy test may be done when a substance does not cause a reaction in the skin prick test but is still suspected as an allergen for that person. <P> 1 Allergens that your pet is not allergic to will not cause a reaction, while allergens that your pet is allergic to will cause a reaction that corresponds to the severity of the allergy. 2 Pets are monitored carefully during the procedure in case a serious reaction occurs and treatment is required. 3 Serum allergy testing. <P> If you suspect that you are allergic to cats, see an allergist for proper diagnosis and treatment. A skin-prick test is the most common way of diagnosing a cat allergy. For this test, a small amount of an extract of cat allergen is placed on your skin.

why do we use lingua franca
|
<P> Although the first lingua franca that developed during the Middle Ages was first considered a pidgin, the term pidgin itself and the language that term describes originally developed out of contact between Europeans and people in the countries they visited from the 16th to the 19th Centuries. A lingua franca is a language used by different populations to communicate when they do not share a common language. Generally, a lingua franca is a third language that is distinct from the native language of both parties involved in the communication. Sometimes as the language becomes more widespread, the native populations of an area will speak the lingua franca to each other as well <P> The term lingua franca was first used during the Middle Ages and described a language created as a combination of French and Italian that was developed by the Crusaders and tradesmen in the Mediterranean.

During the Middle Ages, the lingua franca was Greek in the parts of Europe, Middle East and Northern Africa where the Byzantine Empire held hegemony, and Latin was primarily used in the rest of Europe. Latin, for a significant portion of the expansion of the Roman Catholic Church, was used as the basis of the Church. <P> The way English is used as a lingua franca is heavily dependent on the specific situation of use. Generally speaking, ELF interactions concentrate on function rather than form. In other words, communicative efficiency (i.e. getting the message across) is more important than correctness. 1 Understanding English as a Lingua Franca: A Complete Introduction to the Theoretical Nature and Practical Implications of English used as a Lingua Franca. <P> 1 A lingua franca is a language that you consciously learn because you need to, because you want to. 2 A mother tongue is a language that you learn because you can't help it. 3 The reason English is spreading around the world at the moment is because of its utility as a lingua franca. The term English as a lingua franca (ELF) refers to the teaching, learning, and use of the English language as a common means of communication for speakers of different native languages.

What started as a gradual process in the sciences has spread to higher education in general. With the internationalisation of higher education, it was only a matter of time before one language emerged as the dominant language of research and instruction. The world is a village and English is the lingua franca; institutes of higher education have come to recognise this. Italy’s most prestigious business school, Bocconi University, has been offering courses in English for over a decade.

The total cost of adding a stamped concrete patio to a home depends on the design chosen and any colors needed. A basic job with a simple design will cost around $8 to $12 per square foot, but that cost can increase for a more intricate design. Stamped concrete serves as a low-cost alternative to other materials for paving and decorating. When properly installed, the concrete takes on the appearance of a more expensive material, including slate or brick. Installers can also make stamped concrete look like brick pavers or field stone. <P> $8-12 per square foot. BASIC: For a basic stamped concrete installation with one pattern and one color, you can expect to pay between $8 and $12 per square foot.

how long does it take for a chicken to lay an egg
|
<P> Roosters are only needed in order for the egg to be FERTILIZED (to have a baby). Hens lay eggs with or without a rooster around. How long does it take a mother hen to hatch her eggs? It takes 20 day for a mother hen to hatch her eggs, and 21 days if your using an incubator. Do hens take care of their eggs? yes all mothers take care of their eggs and youngones...All the hens lays eggs in a safe and same place regularly. Best Answer: How long does it take for a hen to lay an egg? The average laying hen lays 257 eggs a year. The actual time it takes for a hen to make an egg and lay it is 24 to 26 hours. http://www.aeb.org/kidsandfamily/time_to... How Many Eggs Can a Chicken Lay in One Day? When a hen reaches eighteen to twenty weeks of age, she begins to lay eggs <P> Most hens will start laying between 5-7 months of age. They will lay best at 1 to 2 years of age. All pullets (female chicken under 1 year of age) lay small eggs at first and after a while will lay larger eggs. Younger hens will lay 1 egg every 3-4 days. A hen 30 weeks old can lay 2 eggs every 3 days. Some have been known to lay an egg a day. <P> Chickens never lay more than one egg per day. As a rule, chickens lay in the morning, but each day a little later. Sometimes the last egg of a series is produced in the early afternoon. When it gets too late, they take the next day off. My five commercial hybrids will sometimes lay for a series of 30 days or more. All chickens lay eggs in a series-never more than one per day. If the eggs are not collected, and a sufficient number of eggs are allowed to remain in the nest, the hen may stop laying eggs and start brooding. When the hen leaves the nest after laying an egg, it cools which suspends the development of the embryo inside. <P> A rooster is necessary to have fertilized eggs, but a hen will lay eggs even if no rooster is present. Incubation time for fertilized eggs is 21 days. Days 1-18 require an internal temperature of 99.5 F and a humidity of 50-60%. Days 18-21 require an internal temp of 99.5 and a humidity of 70-80%. She will lay an egg a day at approximately the same time. It takes about 20 hours for an egg to be made inside her body. That's why she is limited to one egg per day. It takes 20 hours to make an egg. <P> Original Answer: The chicken egg laying cycle lasts for exactly 21 days when the eggs will start to get cracking into chicks. Next Answer: The 21 days referred to in the prev … ious answer is how long it takes a fertile chicken egg to hatch if it is incubated (either by a hen or an incubator). The actual egg laying cycle of a chook can vary as not all breeds lay at the same rate. <P> A chicken may take from about 5 minutes to an hour to lay her egg. She will lay an egg a day at approximately the same time. It takes about 20 hours for an egg to be made inside her body. That's why she is limited to one egg per day. It takes 20 hours to make an egg. It takes 20 hours to make an egg and between 5 minutes and an hour to lay it, depending on the hen <P> Thus: 3 chickens will lay 1 egg in 1/2 of a day. Then it follows that 3 chickens will lay 2 eggs in 1 day. Now, if we allow those 3 chickens three times as long (3 days), they will produce 6 eggs. 3 chickens will lay 6 eggs in 3 days. One chicken will lay 1/3 of that number of eggs (1/3 * 6 = 2 eggs) in 3 days. Next Answer: The 21 days referred to in the prev … ious answer is how long it takes a fertile chicken egg to hatch if it is incubated (either by a hen or an incubator). The actual egg laying cycle of a chook can vary as not all breeds lay at the same rate. <P> Chickens usually don't simply stop laying eggs when they get to a certain age, but they will lay fewer as they get older. That said, most laying breeds will lay more or less productively in backyard terms for five or seven years. <P> The actual formation of the egg inside the chicken takes about 24 hours, but when they sit down to lay the egg it can take anywhere from 15 minutes to a couple of hours. Next Answer: The 21 days referred to in the prev … ious answer is how long it takes a fertile chicken egg to hatch if it is incubated (either by a hen or an incubator).

why is the connective tissue important
|
<P> The connective tissues consist of cells and extracellular or intercellular substance (see illustration). The cells include many varieties, of which the following are the most important: fibroblasts, macrophages (histiocytes), mast cells, plasma cells, melanocytes, and fat cells. <P> Connective Tissue A really diverse group of tissues: Connective tissue is the most diverse of the four tissue types with a wide variety of functions. It ranges in consistency from the gel-like softness of areolar connective tissue to the hardness of bone. A really diverse group of tissues. Connective tissue is the most diverse of the four tissue types with a wide variety of functions. It ranges in consistency from the gel-like softness of areolar connective tissue to the hardness of bone. Blood is also a connective tissue. <P> Connective tissue (blue) is seen supporting the epithelium (purple). Connective tissue (CT) is one of the four types of biological tissue that support, connect, or separate different types of tissues and organs in the body. The other three types are epithelial, muscle, and nervous tissue. Connective tissue is found in between other tissues everywhere in the body, including the nervous system. In the central nervous system the outer membranes, the meninges, that cover the brain and spinal cord are composed of connective tissue. All connective tissue apart from blood and lymph consists of three main components: fibers (elastic and collagenous fibers), ground substance and cells. (Not all authorities include blood or lymph as connective tissue.) Blood and lymph lack the fiber component. All are immersed in the body water. <P> The shape and form of the body, its organs, muscles, bones and the bodies architecture, are determined by the properties of connective tissue. Connective tissue forms a continuous interconnected system from the top of your head to the tip of your toes. Every cell in your body in fact is connected to every other cell, in a continuous matrix of connective tissue. I guess thats why its called connective tissue! Connective tissue fibers not only connect the cells to one another but the DNA of each cell via the cytoskeleton, which is a miniature musculoskeletal system inside the cell that also is in contact with the outer cell wall and associated <P> Collagens and elastin are the main protein content in the connective tissues. The connective tissues are of various types like loose connective tissues, dense connective tissues, blood, bone and cartilage and each perform various important functions. Different cells collectively form a tissue and do many important activities in the body. The structures of these human body tissues are different from one another and each tissue is formed in different parts of the body. The Human body tissues are of different types and each tissue performs different tasks. <P> Human body tissues are really very important and play a vital role in the function of different body parts. The human body is made up of different tissues and cells which jointly work for the proper functioning. Different cells collectively form a tissue and do many important activities in the body. The structures of these human body tissues are different from one another and each tissue is formed in different parts of the body. The Human body tissues are of different types and each tissue performs different tasks. The different types of tissues are connective tissues, epithelial tissue, muscular tissue, nervous system tissue, lymphatic tissue which are very important for body. The connective tissue has its own importance and these tissues are responsible for the support of many body organs and parts <P> Cartilage and Bone. Fluid connective tissue types, of which there are only two, are important in transport and body defense. Most connective tissues are variants of the second group, connective tissue proper where cells are interspersed among protein fibers in a fluid-filled matrix. Supportive connective tissues include cartilage and bone, more durable connective tissue types due to the semisolid or solid ground substance that accumulates in the matrix. Since the matrix of supportive connective tissues is either a semisolid or solid, cells of these tissues occupy small spaces or lacunae. <P> The matrix of connective tissue typically consists of fibers and a featureless ground substance. The most abundant fiber in connective tissues is a tough protein called collagen. Tendons, ligaments, and the white stringy tissue (fascia) seen in some cuts of meat are composed almost entirely of collagen, as is leather, which consists of the connective tissue layer (dermis) of animal skins. <P> As a result of this basic topology, other tissues are either supported upon connective tissue (epithelial surfaces), invaginated into connective tissue (glandular epithelium), or embedded within the connective tissue (blood vessels, muscles, and nerves). The extracellular matrix of connective tissue is composed of ground substance and fibers. In ordinary connective tissue, the ground substanc e consists mainly of water. The principal fiber type is collagen (the most abundant protein in the body), with elastic fibers as a minor element.

what is the definition of bioluminescence
|
<P> Bioluminescence. The emission of light by living organisms that is visible to other organisms. The enzymes and other proteins associated with bioluminescence have been developed and exploited as markers or reporters of other biochemical processes in biomedical research. Bioluminescent animals include such organisms as ctenophores, annelid worms, mollusks, insects such as fireflies, and fish. The production of light in bioluminescent organisms results from the conversion of chemical energy to light energy. <P> The light emitted by a bioluminescent organism is produced by energy released from chemical reactions occurring inside (or ejected by) the organism. If you’ve ever seen a firefly, you have encountered a bioluminescent organism. In the ocean, bioluminescence is not as rare as you might think. In fact, most types of animals, from bacteria to sharks, include some bioluminescent members. <P> Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism. It is a form of chemiluminescence. Bioluminescence occurs widely in marine vertebrates and invertebrates, as well as in some fungi, microorganisms including some bioluminescent bacteria and terrestrial invertebrates such as fireflies. In some animals, the light is produced by symbiotic organisms such as Vibrio bacteria. Bioluminescence is a form of chemiluminescence where light energy is released by a chemical reaction. Fireflies, anglerfish, and other organisms produce the light-emitting pigment luciferin and the enzyme luciferase. Luciferin reacts with oxygen to create light: <P> The Science. Bioluminescence, or living light, is produced by a chemical reaction churning in the bodies of thousands of different organisms from terrestrial and marine environments around the planet. The Science of Bioluminescence. At the molecular level, bioluminescence is produced when chemicals, or “substrates” intermingle at the right time and place: luciferin, luciferase, and a third player, oxygen. <P> Medical Definition of BIOLUMINESCENCE. : the emission of light from living organisms; also: the light so produced. — bio·lu·mi·nes·cent \-ənt\ adjective <P> Bioluminescence, or the ability of an organism to create light, is one of nature’s most amazing phenomena, seemingly drawn more from science fiction than science and natural history. While only a few land dwellers, like fireflies and some fungi, can make their own light, bioluminescence is very common in the deep sea. <P> Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism. Bioluminescent creatures are found throughout marine habitats, from the ocean surface to the deep sea floor. If you’ve ever seen a firefly, you have encountered a bioluminescent organism. In the ocean, bioluminescence is not as rare as you might think.

cost to cut down a large tree
|
<P> Tree Sizes. The size of the tree in question plays a large role in how much you’ll pay to have it removed. For example: 1 Small Trees up to 30 Feet in Height – $125 to $450. 2 Medium Trees between 30 and 60 Feet in Height – $175 to $950. 3 Large Trees between 60 and 80 Feet in Height – $400 to $1,100. <P> Calculate the cost based on the size of your tree. Although prices vary depending on the company and the area in which you live, you can assume that you'll pay $10 per foot to have a large tree cut down. The smaller the tree, the less money per foot it will cost. <P> One of the ways that you can determine how much it would cost to remove your tree is to find out how large your tree is. The cost of a smaller tree is going to be around 125 dollars while a taller tree can run between 900-1400 dollars to be cut down. Stability of your tree is also an important factor in pricing your tree, and taller trees can tend to be less stable which partially attributes to their higher costs. <P> To remove a tree that is 45 feet tall, consumers can expect to pay around $450. Large trees are between 50 and 90 feet in height and two to four feet thick. These trees will cost around $10 per foot. To remove a 90-foot tree, consumers will pay at least $900. <P> Although it can vary depending on the company, typically a large tree is 60 to 80 feet tall. A small tree is usually 30 feet tall or shorter, and a medium tree is commonly 30 to 60 feet in height. Anything over 80 feet tall is considered to be very large and, therefore, much more costly to remove. <P> Estimate the height of the tree you need removed. The cost of cutting the tree down will depend on the size of the tree, and what you consider to be large might be in a different category as far as the tree-cutting service is concerned. <P> Step 2. Calculate the cost based on the size of your tree. Although prices vary depending on the company and the area in which you live, you can assume that you'll pay $10 per foot to have a large tree cut down. The smaller the tree, the less money per foot it will cost.

Prep. Ready In. 1 In a small bowl, mash blue cheese and buttermilk together with a fork until mixture resembles large-curd cottage cheese. 2 Stir in sour cream, mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and garlic powder until well blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper. <P> 6. Remove the curd from the press in the morning and create air holes by inserting a sterilized rod, about 1⁄4 inch (0.6 cm) in diameter (6 mm), through the cheese every inch or so. This will allow air to enter the cheese which is necessary for growth of the mold. <P> Blue cheese is also known to be used as a dressing. You can crumble it and spread over various dishes like lamb, beef or Buffalo wings. They are also great companions of hamburgers and are often a part of various Italian delicacies. <P> The Blue cheese generally is sharp and a bit salty to taste. Blue cheese can be eaten in all kinds of ways. You can eat it by itself or you can also crumble or melt it over other foods. They are also served with fruits or wine in various cuisines. Sometimes they are also eaten with crackers.

<P> SEARCH. Known as the ankle joint, the talocrural joint is actually two basic articulations working in cohesive junction. Each are hinge joints, with one formed at the end of the tibia and one formed at the lateral malleolus of the fibula. Each joins with the talus. The distal joint is formed with the juncture of the medial malleolus and the tibia joining the talus. The lateral joint is formed at the juncture of the lateral malleolus and the fibula with the talus. With 4 ligament supports, the entire joint process in encapsulated within one joint capsule. The ligaments support the ankle joints from the outside of this capsule. <P> The medial malleolus is the prominence on the inner side of the ankle, formed by the lower end of the tibia. The lateral malleolus is the prominence on the outer side of the ankle, formed by the lower end of the fibula. Medial malleolus [edit]. The medial surface of the lower extremity of tibia is prolonged downward to form a strong pyramidal process, flattened from without inward-the medial malleolus. 1 The medial surface of this process is convex and subcutaneous <P> The lateral malleolus is a bony prominence on the fibula, one of the long bones that makes up the lower leg. The fibula is the narrowest of the long bones, situated on the outside of the leg, with this prominence creating the distinctive bump on the outside of the ankle. It is frequently involved in ankle fractures. The lateral malleolus is in one of the long bones that comprise the lower leg. The ends of the fibula are cartilaginous at birth, solidifying into bone as people age. The lateral malleolus is often involved in ankle injuries. Rest and casting are sometimes enough to allow a lateral malleous fracture to heal on its own. <P> The medial malleolus forms the medial side of the ankle joint with the talus of the foot; it can be easily located by palpation of the skin in this region.

how long do kittens need to stay with their mother
|
<P> The absolute minimum is 8 weeks but ideally a kitten should stay with its mom until he's at least 12 weeks. Kittens need much more from their moms than just milk, contrary to popular belief, so the longer the kitten stays with mom the better. Reply. 1. Kittens will nurse up to 8 weeks old. 2. They really are not reliable with the litter pan under 12 weeks old. 3. They need more social time with mom/siblings to be mentally and physically ready to leave. 4. Many kitten problems are due to kittens being taken too soon. <P> · just now. Report Abuse. kittens should not be seperated from their mother until they are at least 6 weeks of age most pet shops will take them from 8 weeks it is the time when they no longer need milk and cat eat dry cat food and use a litter tray properly. Report Abuse. New born kittens should have their mother for the first 4 weeks of their lives. If they don't, then they should be bottle fed kitten formula in order to be sure they are getting all of the correct nutrients. You can tell how old a kitten is by this. <P> Kittens six to eight weeks old have not learned any important socialisation or behaviour skills yet, which kittens learn from eight weeks onwards. During this time kittens will learn how to play and interact with their littermates, mother and any other animals and humans in the house. Keeping kittens with their mothers and siblings until they are twelve weeks old is ideal. Sadly, too many kittens are taken away from their mo … thers too early, usually around six to eight weeks old (some kittens aren't even weaned properly at that age). <P> Report Abuse. To be fully socialized, kittens should stay with the mother and litter mates for at least 12 weeks-perhaps as little as 10 weeks but it will depend upon the kitten. Removing kittens before this will almost always product behavior problems in the first year of the kitten's life. Report Abuse.

Kittens and puppies need to stay with their mother until they are at least 6 weeks old, but 8 weeks is better. The mother teaches the kittens appropriate behaviors as they become less dependent upon her. <P> Report Abuse. A kitten should stay with its mother for an absolute minimum of eight weeks and preferably 12 weeks. Although they may be weaned prior to eight weeks, they will still have the occasional need to nurse. <P> The ASPCA indicates that mother cats usually start weaning the little fluff balls when they are about 1 month old. In general, kittens need their mother's milk until they are a minimum of 4 weeks old. The complete weaning process generally takes about a month, meaning that the wee kittens are usually fully weaned when they are between 8 and 10 weeks in age. Towards the end of the run, however, kittens should be receiving the vast majority of their dietary intake via food that is made specifically for kittens. <P> When puppies stay with their mother and littermates for a minimum of between 8 and 10 weeks, they have sufficient time to develop a strong foundation of social skills. In regular playing with their siblings, puppies receive an important education on life in the canine real world.. It is important for puppies to stay with their mothers at least until they are all through with weaning. However, in certain situations, that may not be realistic -- such as in the event of the mother dog's illness. <P> I'm not sure how long the kittens should stay with their mother, so would you please let me know what is the appropriate length of time a kitten should stay with its mother? Answer: Thank you for asking! A kitten should stay with its mother for an absolute minimum of eight weeks and preferably 12 weeks. Although they may be weaned prior to eight weeks, they will still have the occasional need to nurse. Kittens taken from their momcats before this time often develop nursing behavior on themselves, other cats, humans, or fabric, and these habits will often continue throughout adulthood.

what is an average life span of a cow
|
<P> On average, a cow is expected to have a breeding span of 10 to 15 years. However, the actual span depends … on the breed; Brahman and Brahman-type cows tend to live longer than British or Continental cattle, and they tend to breed for longer than dairy cows. The average life of a cow is up to 20 years if they are kept in good conditions and has a proper diet. On occasion up to 25 years. Normal would be about 15 years. My wife works on a dairy farm they have at least one cow of 15 years of age that is producing milk, She is milked twice daily <P> While most cattle live between 18 to 22 years, it's not unusual for Jerseys to live 25 years or more. The oldest Jersey cow recorded was 37 years old living at an animal rescue center in the United Kingdom. Jersey cows reach productive age earlier -- often bearing a calf months earlier than other dairy breeds. <P> Selymes (1996) determined the minimal life span of beef cow lines as 8 years but, in his opinion, 10 years would be optimal.

Best Answer: The life expectancy of a cow if it was never milked, never been in calf etc is around 15 years. It depends on hard a cow is milked. Some of the big dairy units will only milk for 2 -3 years before the cow is sent barren and slaughtered. Also, I could find no info on the bulls used as herd sires for the dairy industry, only the cows. The normal and average life expectancy of the cow is from between 15 and 20 years. <P> Most sources agree that 15-20 years is average for dairy cows.

what is the ureter
|
<P> ureter. the fibromuscular tube, 41 to 46 cm long, through which the urine passes from the kidney to the bladder. adj., adj ure´teral, ureter´ic. As urine is produced by each kidney, it passes into the ureter, which, by contracting rhythmically, forces the urine along and empties it in spurts into the bladder. After being stored temporarily in the bladder, the urine passes out of the body by way of the urethra. <P> The ureter is the tube that connects each kidney to the bladder. The kidneys clean the blood and filter waste from it. This process produces a liquid waste, urine. Urine flows from the kidneys through the ureters to the bladder. The urine is stored in the bladder until a person urinates. During urination, the urine leaves the body by passing from the bladder through another tube, the urethra, which is open at one end. <P> The ureter is a paired fibromuscular tube that conveys urine from the kidneys in the abdomen to the bladder in the pelvis. The ureter is 25-30 cm long and has three parts: <P> Ectopic Ureter. Ureters are the two funnel-shaped tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. A ureter that does not connect properly to the bladder and drains somewhere outside of the bladder is called an ectopic ureter. In boys the ectopic ureter usually drains into the urethra closer to the prostate. 1 Hydronephrosis: When the ectopic ureter connects outside the bladder, the insertion is usually narrow, creating a level of obstruction. 2 The urine that is draining from the kidneys backs up and causes the kidney and ureter to dilate (hydronephrosis). <P> Ureter. The ureter is a tube that carries urine from the kidney to the urinary bladder. There are two ureters, one attached to each kidney. The upper half of the ureter is located in the abdomen and the lower half is located in the pelvic area. The ureter is about 10 to 12 inches long in the average adult <P> The renal pelvis is the top part of the ureter. The ureter is a long tube that connects the kidney to the bladder. There are two kidneys, one on each side of the backbone, above the waist. The kidneys of an adult are about 5 inches long and 3 inches wide and are shaped like a kidney bean. Tiny tubules in the kidneys filter and clean the blood <P> ureter. the fibromuscular tube through which the urine passes from the kidney to the bladder. ectopic ureter. an abnormally placed opening of the ureter, either into the urinary bladder or at another site in the lower urinary or genital tract. There is usually constant dribbling of urine and commonly an associated pyuria. As urine is produced by each kidney, it passes into the ureter, which, by contracting rhythmically, forces the urine along and empties it in spurts into the bladder. After being stored temporarily in the bladder, the urine passes out of the body by way of the urethra. <P> In human anatomy, the ureters are tubes made of smooth muscle fibers that propel urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder. In the adult, the ureters are usually 25–30 cm (10–12 in) long and ~3–4 mm in diameter. Histologically, the ureter contains transitional epithelium and an additional smooth muscle layer in the more distal one-third to assist with peristalsis. <P> Each ureter enters the bladder through a tunnel in the bladder wall, which is angled to prevent the urine from running back into the ureter when the bladder contracts. A ureter is one of two uterine tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Each ureter is about ten to twelve inches long. Urine flows down partly by gravity, but mainly by waves of contractions, which pass several times per minute through the muscle layers of the urethral walls.

what did the united states hope to accomplish through its good neighbor policy
|
<P> The Cold War Museum-Franklin D. Roosevelt. Roosevelt had pledged the United States to the good neighbor policy, transforming the Monroe Doctrine from a unilateral American manifesto into arrangements for mutual action against aggressors. He also sought, through neutrality legislation ... Good Neighbor Policy. We get to freedom through democracy; to prosperity through trade; and to security through a concerted, multiple-layered effort to combat the scourges of terrorism, narcotics trafficking, criminality and lawlessness, and other transnational threats.. <P> The greatest risk faced by the United States in the post-cold war era is that the U.S. will declare victory against communism and fail to fundamentally reassess its foreign policy toward Latin America and the rest of the globe. To begin this assessment, it is helpful to examine several past criticisms of U.S. foreign policy toward Latin America. It is also important to understand the two basic approaches the United States has adopted toward Latin American governments, the motives for each policy, and their respective results. <P> Roosevelt had pledged the United States to the good neighbor policy, transforming the Monroe Doctrine from a unilateral American manifesto into arrangements for mutual action against aggressors. Assuming the Presidency at the depth of the Great Depression as our 32nd President (1933-1945), Franklin D. Roosevelt helped the American people regain faith in themselves. Assuming the Presidency at the depth of the Great Depression <P> Canada, like the United States, was little damaged by the war and in 1945 was one of the world's largest economies. It operated its own aid program. In 1948, the U.S. allowed ERP aid to be used in purchasing goods from Canada. Canada made over a billion dollars in sales in the first two years of operation. <P> The Good Neighbor policy was the foreign policy of the administration of United States President Franklin Roosevelt towards Latin America. Although the policy was implemented by the Roosevelt administration, 19th-century politician Henry Clay paved the way for it and coined the term Good Neighbor. <P> The Good Neighbor Policy terminated the U.S. Marines occupation of Nicaragua in 1933 and occupation of Haiti in 1934, led to the annulment of the Platt Amendment by the Treaty of Relations with Cuba in 1934, and the negotiation of compensation for Mexico's nationalization of foreign-owned oil assets in 1938. Although the policy was implemented by the Roosevelt administration, 19th-century politician Henry Clay paved the way for it and coined the term Good Neighbor. <P> President Roosevelt intended that his Good Neighbor Policy improve U.S. relations with nations around the world. But it was in the Western Hemisphere that FDR s new foreign policy framework had its most dramatic impact. The Good Neighbor Policy demonstrated that it was possible to alter the course of international relations and U.S. foreign policy. As in 1932, it is time once again to change course, and the model of the Good Neighbor policy is a good one to follow. <P> The United States tried unsuccessfully to subvert the revolution in Cuba through the Bay of Pigs invasion by Cuban exiles in 1961. Castro allowed the Soviet Union to place nuclear missiles in Cuba a year later, to defend the island against continued threats from the United States. Good Neighbor Policy. We get to freedom through democracy; to prosperity through trade; and to security through a concerted, multiple-layered effort to combat the scourges of terrorism, narcotics trafficking, criminality and lawlessness, and other transnational threats.. <P> The Good Neighbor Policy and the Pan-American war propaganda were further abandoned when the United States ignored free trade overtures and viewed Latin America merely as a supplier of raw materials and tropical foodstuffs. Good Neighbor Policy. We get to freedom through democracy; to prosperity through trade; and to security through a concerted, multiple-layered effort to combat the scourges of terrorism, narcotics trafficking, criminality and lawlessness, and other transnational threats..

<P> New Ethnography is a recent development in the field of Anthropology. It is also known as Cognitive Anthropology or Ethnoscience.It accords special importance to empirical data as well as theoretical abstraction. <P> Ethnography-or field research-is a sociological method that explores how people live and make sense of their lives with one another in particular places. The focus might be on people and the meaning they produce through everyday interactions, or places, and the organizational logics that guide our activities. Columbia provides an enormously rich environment for ethnographic research. <P> ethnography. (noun) A qualitative research method in which a researcher observes a social setting to provide descriptions of a group, society, or organization. 1 Plural: ethnographies. 2 Also called descriptive anthropology. 3 Ethnography used in a sentence: I completed an ethnography of a domestic violence shelter. 4 An (noun) ethnographer uses the research methodology of ethnography to produce (adjective) ethnographic or (adjective) ethnographical work (adverb) ethnographically. <P> Ethnography. Ethnography is a qualitative research design aimed at exploring cultural phenomena. The resulting field study or a case report reflects the knowledge and the system of meanings in the lives of a cultural group. An ethnography is a means to represent graphically and in writing, the culture of a people <P> The term ethnography has come to be equated with virtually any qualitative research project where the intent is to provide a detailed, in-depth description of everyday life and practice. While an ethnographic approach to social research is no longer purely that of the cultural anthropologist, a more precise definition must be rooted in ethnography’s disciplinary home of anthropology. <P> Definition: An ethnography is a descriptive account of social life and culture in a particular social system based on detailed observations of what people actually do. <P> Critical ethnography: is a kind of ethnographic research in which the creators advocate for the liberation of groups which are marginalized in society. Critical researchers typically are politically minded people who look to take a stand of opposition to inequality and domination. The word 'Ethnography' is derived from the Greek ἔθνος (ethnos), ethnós meaning a, company later a, people nation ' -and graphy meaning field of. Study ethnographic studies focus on large cultural groups of people who interact over. time <P> The typical ethnography is a holistic study and so includes a brief history, and an analysis of the terrain, the climate, and the habitat.

Study ethnographic studies focus on large cultural groups of people who interact over. time <P> Ethnography (from Greek ἔθνος ethnos folk, people, nation and γράφω grapho I write) is the systematic study of people and cultures. It is designed to explore cultural phenomena where the researcher observes society from the point of view of the subject of the study.

The word 'Ethnography' is derived from the Greek ἔθνος (ethnos), ethnós meaning a, company later a, people nation ' -and graphy meaning field of. Study ethnographic studies focus on large cultural groups of people who interact over. time <P> Thus, ethnography may be defined as both a qualitative research process or method (one conducts an ethnography) and product (the outcome of this process is an ethnography) whose aim is cultural interpretation. The ethnographer goes beyond reporting events and details of experience. While an ethnographic approach to social research is no longer purely that of the cultural anthropologist, a more precise definition must be rooted in ethnography’s disciplinary home of anthropology.

What is the vital role of neurons that glial cells cannot perform
|
<P> Glial cells, sometimes called neuroglia or simply glia (Greek γλοία glue; pronounced in English as either /ˈɡliːə/ or /ˈɡlaɪə/), are non-neuronal cells that maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for neurons in the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system. As the Greek name implies, glia are commonly known as the glue of the nervous system; however, this is not fully accurate. Neuroscience currently identifies four main functions of glial cells: 1 To surround neurons and hold them in place. 2 To supply nutrients and oxygen to neurons. <P> The nervous system is comprised of two primary cell types: neurons and glial cells. These cells communicate with each other to perform important tasks in the nervous system. The glial cells support neurons structurally and maintain their long-term neuronal integrity, and neurons regulate glial cell behavior. <P> 1 Neurons CAN generate action potentials...glial cells CANNOT. 2 However, glial cells do have a resting potential. 3 Neurons HAVE synapses that use neurotransmitters...glial cells do NOT have chemical synapses. 4 There are many MORE (10-50 times more) glial cells in the brain compared to the number of neurons. 1 However, glial cells do have a resting potential. 2 Neurons HAVE synapses that use neurotransmitters...glial cells do NOT have chemical synapses. 3 <P> There are a few ways in which glia cells are different from neurons: 1 Neurons have TWO processes called axons and dendrites....glial cells have only ONE. 2 Neurons CAN generate action potentials...glial cells CANNOT. 3 However, glial cells do have a resting potential. 1 However, glial cells do have a resting potential. 2 Neurons HAVE synapses that use neurotransmitters...glial cells do NOT have chemical synapses. 3 There are many MORE (10-50 times more) glial cells in the brain compared to the number of neurons. <P> The nervous system is the part of an animal 's body that coordinates its voluntary and involuntary actions and transmits signals to and from different parts of its body. Nervous tissue first arose in wormlike organisms about 550 to 600 million years ago. The central nervous system functions to send signals from one cell to others, or from one part of the body to others and to receive feedback. Malfunction of the nervous system can occur as a result of genetic defects, physical damage due to trauma or toxicity, infection or simply of ageing. <P> At the cellular level, the nervous system is defined by the presence of a special type of cell, called the neuron, also known as a nerve cell. Neurons have special structures that allow them to send signals rapidly and precisely to other cells. The central nervous system functions to send signals from one cell to others, or from one part of the body to others and to receive feedback. Malfunction of the nervous system can occur as a result of genetic defects, physical damage due to trauma or toxicity, infection or simply of ageing. <P> They communicate with one another, with cells in the sensory organs, and with muscles and glands. Each neuron has the same structure: 1 Each neuron has a soma, or cell body, which is the central area of the neuron. 2 It contains the nucleus and other structures common to all cells in the body, such as mitochondria. <P> 1 These cells receive signals from and send signals to other nerve cells. 2 Interneurons serve to process information in many different ways and constitute the bulk of the human nervous system. 3 Effectors or motor neurons are the third class of neurons. <P> Nerve Tissue. Although the nervous system is very complex, there are only two main types of cells in nerve tissue. The actual nerve cell is the neuron. It is the conducting cell that transmits impulses and the structural unit of the nervous system. The other type of cell is neuroglia, or glial, cell. The word neuroglia means nerve glue.. These cells are nonconductive and provide a support system for the neurons. They are a special type of connective tissue for the nervous system. <P> 1 Neurons have TWO processes called axons and dendrites....glial cells have only ONE. 2 Neurons CAN generate action potentials...glial cells CANNOT. 3 However, glial cells do have a resting potential. 4 Neurons HAVE synapses that use neurotransmitters...glial cells do NOT have chemical synapses. 1 However, glial cells do have a resting potential. 2 Neurons HAVE synapses that use neurotransmitters...glial cells do NOT have chemical synapses. 3 There are many MORE (10-50 times more) glial cells in the brain compared to the number of neurons.

<P> Activity 1 - Capture LLMNR Traffic [edit]. To capture LLMNR traffic: 1 Start a Wireshark capture. 2 Open a command prompt. 3 Type, where is any unknown host name on your network. 4 An unknown host name is used for this activity because names resolved by DNS will not generate LLMNR traffic. 5 Close the command prompt. 6 Stop the Wireshark capture. <P> File shares to modern Microsoft Windows Operating Systems typically requires UDP port 138, TCP 139, TCP 445, and UDP 5355. Echo Request – ICMPv4-In. Internet Control Message Protocol for IPv4 – is typically used with tools like Ping and Traceroute to indicate a host or endpoint is available. <P> Wireshark is a free and open source packet analyzer used for network troubleshooting and analysis. These activities will show you how to use Wireshark to capture and analyze Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) traffic. To capture LLMNR traffic: 1 Start a Wireshark capture. 2 Open a command prompt. 3 Type, where is any unknown host name on your network. 4 An unknown host name is used for this activity because names resolved by DNS will not generate LLMNR traffic. 5 Close the command prompt. 6 Stop the Wireshark capture. <P> UDP port 5355 is part of the Link-local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) process and technically in IPv6 is actually a multicast process listening on the multicast address FF02::1:3. Unfortunately, LLMNR isn't utilized by Linux or OSX at all. Apple came up with mDNS and later DNS-SD to address the name resolution issues for local networking and it appears that some Linux implementations utilize that also. There is a nice write up of some of the Zero Configuration Networking options on Wikipedia. <P> Zero-configuration networking (zeroconf) is a set of technologies that automatically creates a usable computer network based on the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP) when computers or network peripherals are interconnected. It does not require manual operator intervention or special configuration servers. Following the failure of LLMNR to become an Internet standard, Apple was asked by the IETF to submit the mDNS/DNS-SD specs for publication as informational RFC as well, given that mDNS/DNS-SD is used much more widely than LLMNR. <P> The Link Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) is a protocol based on the. (DNS). protocol that allows computers to perform name resolution for addresses on the same local network without the. need for a centrally coordinating DNS server. the DNS process for LOCAL name resolution. The problem arises because all older computers running LLMNR listen on the IPv4 multicast address 224.0.0.252. and instruct their Ethernet network adapters to listen for Ethernet frames with a destination multicast address. <P> Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. (Redirected from LLMNR). The Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) is a protocol based on the Domain Name System (DNS) packet format that allows both IPv4 and IPv6 hosts to perform name resolution for hosts on the same local link. 1 ID-A 16-bit identifier assigned by the program that generates any kind of query. 2 QR-Query/Response. 3 OPCODE-A 4-bit field that specifies the kind of query in this message. 4 This value is set by the originator of a query and copied into the response. <P> Assuming that a DNS server is inaccessible, link local multicast name resolution steps in and provides name resolution services for hosts on the ad-hoc network. A less obvious example of how link local multicast name resolution is useful is that it can be used during a router failure. For example, imagine that your company’s DNS server resides in the main office, and that DNS queries from branch offices flow across a WAN link. In most cases, it is either impossible or impractical to add a DNS server to a home network or to an ad-hoc network. This makes name resolution impossible. Windows Vista in Longhorn Server will change this with the new technology called link local multicast name resolution. In this article, I will show you how it works.

what does procyon mean?
|
<P> The noun PROCYON has 2 senses: 1. the brightest star in Canis Minor. 2. the type genus of the family Procyonidae: raccoons. Familiarity information: PROCYON used as a noun is rare. <P> It’s hard to think of Procyon – the Little Dog Star – without also thinking of the other Dog Star, Sirius. If you’re looking at the right time of year (or right time of night), you can always find Sirius because it’s the sky’s brightest star. Currently Procyon is designated as an F5IV-V star, where the F5 essentially gives the color or temperature of the star’s surface, and the IV-V means that it is in a transitional phase between the Main Sequence (V) and subdwarf (IV) periods. <P> Procyon in history and mythology. Procyon is the alpha star of the constellation Canis Minor the Small Dog. In mythology, Canis Minor is the smaller of two of Orion the Hunter’s companion hunting dogs. The constellation Canis Major depicts the Great Dog, highlighted by Sirius, the sky’s brightest star (after the sun). Currently Procyon is designated as an F5IV-V star, where the F5 essentially gives the color or temperature of the star’s surface, and the IV-V means that it is in a transitional phase between the Main Sequence (V) and subdwarf (IV) periods. <P> The Dog Stars are Sirius in the constellation Canis Major, and Procyon in the constellation Canis Minor. In this photo, Orion is in the upper right. Notice that the three stars of Orion’s Belt point to the brightest star in this photo, Sirius. Currently Procyon is designated as an F5IV-V star, where the F5 essentially gives the color or temperature of the star’s surface, and the IV-V means that it is in a transitional phase between the Main Sequence (V) and subdwarf (IV) periods. <P> Visibility [edit]. Procyon is the eighth brightest star in the night sky, culminating at midnight on January 14. It forms one of the three vertices of the Winter Triangle asterism, in combination with Sirius and Betelgeuse. The prime period for evening viewing of Procyon is in late winter. At 0.6 M☉ , Procyon B is considerably less massive than Sirius B; however, the peculiarities of degenerate matter ensure that it is larger than its more famous neighbor, with an estimated radius of 8,600 km, versus 5,800 km for Sirius B. The radius agrees with white dwarf models that assume a carbon core. <P> Procyon is a binary star system with a bright primary component, Procyon A, having an apparent magnitude of 0.34, and a faint companion, Procyon B, at magnitude 10.7. The pair orbit each other with a period of 40.82 years along an elliptical orbit with an eccentricity of 0.407. At 0.6 M☉ , Procyon B is considerably less massive than Sirius B; however, the peculiarities of degenerate matter ensure that it is larger than its more famous neighbor, with an estimated radius of 8,600 km, versus 5,800 km for Sirius B. The radius agrees with white dwarf models that assume a carbon core. <P> Procyon or Alpha Canis Minoris (Alp CMi) is the brightest naked eye star in the constellation Canis Minor. With an apparent magnitude of 0.4, Procyon is the 8th brightest star in the entire sky (see: 50 Brightest Stars). Its absolute magnitude is 2.68 and its distance is 11.4 light years. The Equinox J2000 equatorial coordinates are RA = 07h 39m 18.1s, Dec = +05° 13' 30. Procyon has a spectral type of F5IV, a surface temperature of 6650° Kelvin and a luminosity 6.9 times the Sun.

what is a diol?
|
<P> 1,3-Propanediol is the organic compound with the formula CH 2 (CH 2 OH) 2. This three-carbon diol is a colorless viscous liquid that is miscible with water. 1,3-Propanediol may be chemically synthesized by the hydration of acrolein, or by the hydroformylation of ethylene oxide to afford 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde. The aldehyde is hydrogenated to give 1,3-propanediol. <P> Another example is propane-1,2-diol, or alpha propylene glycol, HO−CH 2 −CH(OH)−CH 3, used in the food and medicine industry, as well as a relatively non-poisonous antifreeze product. On commercial scales, the main route to vicinal diols is the hydrolysis of epoxides. In general, organic geminal diols readily dehydrate to form a carbonyl group. For example, carbonic acid ((HO) 2 C=O) is unstable and has a tendency to convert to carbon dioxide (CO 2) and water (H 2 O). Nevertheless, in rare situations the chemical equilibrium is in favor of the geminal diol. <P> A diol is a chemical compound containing two hydroxyl groups (−OH groups). This pairing of functional groups is pervasive, and many subcategories have been identified. The most common industrial diol is ethylene glycol. Examples of diols in which the hydroxyl functional groups are more widely separated include 1,4-butanediol HO−(CH 2) 4 −OH and bisphenol A, and propylene-1,3-diol, or beta propylene glycol, HO−CH 2 −CH 2 −CH 2 −OH. In general, organic geminal diols readily dehydrate to form a carbonyl group. For example, carbonic acid ((HO) 2 C=O) is unstable and has a tendency to convert to carbon dioxide (CO 2) and water (H 2 O). Nevertheless, in rare situations the chemical equilibrium is in favor of the geminal diol. <P> Ethane-1,2-diol, (ethylene glycol, monoethylene glycol, MEG) which is manufactured from ethene via epoxyethane, is used to make polyester fibres, resins and films although it is probably better known for its use as a coolant in cars. Figure 1 Uses of ethane-1,2-diol. By far the most important uses of the diol is in the manufacture of polyesters, particularly PET (polyehylene terephthalate), used widely for clothes and for packaging. Another important use is as a coolant in engines. <P> glycol. (glī`kōl) , dihydric alcohol alcohol,any of a class of organic compounds with the general formula R-OH, where R represents an alkyl group made up of carbon and hydrogen in various proportions and-OH represents one or more hydroxyl groups...... The most important glycol is the simplest, ethylene glycol, or 1,2-ethanediol, CH 2 OHCH 2 OH, a slightly sweet-tasting, somewhat viscous liquid that is miscible with water. <P> A diol is a chemical compound containing two hydroxyl groups. This pairing of functional groups is pervasive and many subcategories have been identified. The most common diols in nature are sugars and their polymers, cellulose. The most common industrial diol is ethylene glycol. Examples of diols in which the hydroxyl functional groups are more widely separated include 1,4-butanediol HO—(CH2)4—OH and bisphenol A, and propylene-1,3-diol or beta propylene glycol, HO-CH2-CH2-CH2-OH. <P> extracted from green tea. The wide polarity range of the diol column was exploited to purify different families of compounds. Note that the column was run as normal phase from 100% hexane through 100% water as a normal phase column in a single run. . Tables 1 and 2 demonstrate that diol TLC plates provide a reasonable. prediction of how a variety of compounds will behave in a column. As the. polarity of the solvent is increased, the compounds show higher retention. factors demonstrating that the diol is running as normal phase. <P> The conversion from epoxyethane to the diol takes place in two stages. First the epoxide reacts with carbon dioxide to form 1,3-dioxolan-2-one (ethene carbonate): An organophosphorus compound is used as the catalyst. Ethene carbonate is then reacted with water to form ethane-1,2-diol and regenerates carbon dioxide. Figure 1 Uses of ethane-1,2-diol. By far the most important uses of the diol is in the manufacture of polyesters, particularly PET (polyehylene terephthalate), used widely for clothes and for packaging. Another important use is as a coolant in engines. <P> In a vicinal diol, the two hydroxyl groups occupy vicinal positions, that is, they are attached to adjacent atoms. These compounds are called glycols. Examples include 1,2-ethanediol or ethylene glycol HO−(CH 2) 2 −OH, a common ingredient of antifreeze products. In general, organic geminal diols readily dehydrate to form a carbonyl group. For example, carbonic acid ((HO) 2 C=O) is unstable and has a tendency to convert to carbon dioxide (CO 2) and water (H 2 O). Nevertheless, in rare situations the chemical equilibrium is in favor of the geminal diol.

where do goldenrod gall flies live
|
<P> Interestingly, the adult goldenrod gall fly does not eat. Goldenrod larvae and gall flies have predators; Downy Woodpeckers and Chickadees know there is a juicy treat waiting for them in those galls and they will break them open to eat a larva. There is a beetle that will burrow into the gall to have a meal. Goldenrod gall flies do not seem to have any effects on us. They do not sting or bite and they tend to be focused only on mating and goldenrods; in fact, their activities do not even harm the goldenrod. <P> The adult will leave the gall and look for a mate. Adult Goldenrod Gall Flies do not eat. Copyright, Dr. Warren Abrahamson and Paul Heinrich Copyright, Dr. Warren Abrahamson and Paul Heinrich Goldenrod Gall Flies have many predators, some even when they are in the larval stage in their gall. The Goldenrod Gall Fly is a parasite on goldenrod plants. The fly's entire life, and death, is centered around Goldenrod. This small brown fly is about five millimeters long. Males are slightly smaller than females <P> Goldenrod Gall Fly Life-Cycle. The goldenrod gall fly (Eurosta solidaginis) is a common and widely distributed insect found coast to coast in the central part of North America. The adult flies emerge from their galls in late spring. In Manitoba they emerge mid to late May, or even early June. In southern Manitoba there is one critter that is particularly suited for a class room demonstration of survival at sub-zero temperatures. The larva of the Goldenrod Gall Fly (Eurosta solidaginis) is both common and easy to get. <P> The commonest goldenrod gall is a round gall in the middle of a stem called a ball gall, made by the Goldenrod Gall Fly, Eurosta solidaginis. In spring, the female fly lays her eggs on goldenrod stems. When the larvae hatch, they chew their way into the stems and galls start to develop. A very different type of gall is made by a tiny fly called the Goldenrod Gall Midge, Rhopalomyia solidaginis. The gall is a tight cluster of small leaves at the top of a stalk that resembles a green flower and is called a bunch gall, rosette gall or flower gall. <P> Adult Goldenrod Gall Flies only live about two weeks. Fly larvae will hatch from the eggs in about 10 days. The larvae will immediately begin to eat from inside the stem of the goldenrod. The Goldenrod Gall Fly is a parasite on goldenrod plants. The fly's entire life, and death, is centered around Goldenrod. This small brown fly is about five millimeters long. Males are slightly smaller than females <P> In the spring it pupates and by late May or early June emerges from the gall, breaking through the thin surface of its exit hole, as a fly with banded wings. Adults usually live about 2 weeks. A similar gall that is eliptical, not round is produced by the Goldenrod Gall Moth, Gnorimoschema sp. As you walk around Fermilab in the fall keep your eyes open for a round lump on the stems of many of the goldenrod plants that grow throughout the site. This gall is produced by the activity of the Goldenrod Gall Fly, Eurosta solidaginis. <P> 0 Comment. The goldenrod gall fly lives its entire life on goldenrod plants. This fly is small and grows to be about five millimetres long with females usually being a bit larger. Females have an ‘egg-laying tube’ (ovipositor) that extends from their abdomen making them easier to identify. Goldenrod gall flies do not seem to have any effects on us. They do not sting or bite and they tend to be focused only on mating and goldenrods; in fact, their activities do not even harm the goldenrod. <P> Remember, the goldenrod stems have to have emerged first. Adult gall flies are small (about 5 mm) , clumsy and are poor fliers. (They have difficulty righting themselves if they fall on their backs!) They do most of their traveling by walking. Adult flies only live about 2 weeks, during which time they mate and the females lay their eggs. In southern Manitoba there is one critter that is particularly suited for a class room demonstration of survival at sub-zero temperatures. The larva of the Goldenrod Gall Fly (Eurosta solidaginis) is both common and easy to get.

where is the moonstone found
|
<P> In the United States, the moonstone is the state gem of Florida. Ironically, the moonstone is not found in Florida. However, in the United States, moonstone can be found in Alabama, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Indiana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Tennessee, and Virginia. In North Queensland, Australia there is a location known where a lot of moonstone can be found. This location is Moonstone Hill. There is a path for walking that leads up to the hill, and this path glimmers with pieces of moonstone. <P> Deposits of moonstone occur in Armenia (mainly from Lake Sevan), Australia, the Austrian Alps, Mexico, Madagascar, Myanmar, Norway, Poland, India, Sri Lanka and the United States. It is currently the state gem for Florida, to commemorate the Moon landings, which took off from Florida. <P> Cambria Moonstones. Moonstone Gems are a different mineral than the stones found on Cambria's beaches. Most of them come from the India and Sri Lanka area and are found in a variety of colors such as white, blue flash and rainbow. In Cambria we have a beautiful white translucent stone on our beaches. Moonstones-Stones of the Moon-Goddess Power. The name moonstone was coined by the ancient Greeks to describe gemstones that displayed the moon's ethereal silvery light. They valued the moonstone as a talisman for lovers. To wear it was thought to arouse the most tender of passions and true love <P> While the stone that Moonstone comes from is located throughout the world, the most likely sources of Moonstone are Sri Lanka, India, Tanzania, Brazil, Germany, Mexico and the United States. Moonstone can come in many different colors and one of the more popular and aesthetically pleasing colors is blue. Moonstone also comes in shades of brown, yellow, orange and in a colored or rainbow variety. What makes Moonstone very appealing is the fact that it includes an attribute called adularecence. <P> Rainbow moonstone is milky white with a rainbow colored sheen. Moonstone is the most valuable form of feldspar and is composed of albite, which gives it the bluish scheen, and orthoclase feldspar. Moonstone is found in Brazil, Germany, India, Madagascar, Mexico, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Tanzania and the United States. Moonstone was used in jewelry by the Romans who believed that the stone was formed from the light of the moon. Moonstone is considered a sacred stone in India. Moonstone belongs to the large mineral family of feldspars. It is an opalescent stone which can range from colorless to blue, peach, green, pink, yellow, brown or gray with a silvery scheen. This iridescence is known as schiller but in moonstone it is called adularescence. Clarity ranges from transparent to translucent. <P> Ironically, moonstone is not mined anywhere in Florida, nor is moonstone found on the moon. Our home of Chanthaburi in Thailand would seem like a better choice to adopt the moonstone as a symbol. Chanthaburi means moon town in Thai. <P> The most important moonstone deposits are from Sri Lanka and India. Other notable sources include Australia, Brazil, Germany, India, Myanmar (Burma), Madagascar, Mexico, Norway, Switzerland, Tanzania, and the United States. Moonstone can be identified by the presence of adularescence. Other gems with a similar appearance do not have the phenomenal presence of adularescence which makes identification of moonstone fairly easy. Moonstone is a potassium aluminum silicate and can be easily identified by composition. <P> Moonstone is one of the more common gemstones and it has attributes that many higher priced gemstones don’t have. Moonstone is not an extremely expensive or rare stone, it is a gemstone that is found in feldspar, a stone that makes up 60% of the earth’s crust. Moonstone is popular because of its colors and distinct attributes. Moonstone can come in many different colors and one of the more popular and aesthetically pleasing colors is blue. Moonstone also comes in shades of brown, yellow, orange and in a colored or rainbow variety. What makes Moonstone very appealing is the fact that it includes an attribute called adularecence. <P> The Moonstone (1868) by Wilkie Collins is a 19th-century British epistolary novel, generally considered the first detective novel in the English language. The story was originally serialised in Charles Dickens ' magazine All the Year Round. The Moonstone and The Woman in White are considered Wilkie Collins' best novels.

what are the new rules in baseball
|
<P> (Reuters) - Major League Baseball instituted several rule changes on Friday designed to step up the pace of play amid growing concerns that its games are growing too long. All of the new rules will be enforced through a warning and fine system, MLB said, with discipline resulting for flagrant violators. MLB also announced several changes to its use of the instant replay system, including allowing managers to challenge a call from the dugout rather than by approaching an umpire. <P> Comment. Major League Baseball's new pace-of-game rules already appear to be having a major impact early this season. According to MLB, the new rules helped to cut nearly eight minutes off the average time of a nine-inning game over the first week of the 2015 season. The general consensus among players and baseball officials is that between-inning clocks have had the greatest impact on MLB's effort to speed up the pace of the game <P> The complete rules are published as the Official Baseball Rules at MLB.com, the official web site of Major League Baseball in the United States and Canada. The rules are also published in book form in North America by the Sporting News. Rule changes have been implemented at different levels of baseball to quicken the pace of the game. In college baseball, the Southeastern Conference experimented with a 20 second pitch clock during the 2010 season, and the NCAA instituted the pitch clock before the 2011 season for when no runners are on base. <P> But most definitely aren't and even the most loyal fan ought to agree that there's a lot of downtime that could be eliminated. To that end, MLB's pace-of-game committee has come up with six experimental rules to move things along. The committee, which was formed earlier this month and consists of MLB, MLBPA, and team executives, made recommendations that will be tried during the Arizona Fall League, which runs from Oct. 7 through Nov. 15. 1 If the pitcher doesn't throw a pitch by 2:05, the umpire can call a ball. 2 Teams will have a maximum of 2:30 to change pitchers, with the clock starting as soon as the reliever enters the playing field. 3 Teams are limited to a maximum of three mound visits per game, not including pitching changes. <P> 1 Hitters must be in the batter's box by 1:45. 2 If the hitter's not ready, the umpire can call a strike. 3 If the pitcher doesn't throw a pitch by 2:05, the umpire can call a ball. 4 Teams will have a maximum of 2:30 to change pitchers, with the clock starting as soon as the reliever enters the playing field. 1 If the pitcher doesn't throw a pitch by 2:05, the umpire can call a ball. 2 Teams will have a maximum of 2:30 to change pitchers, with the clock starting as soon as the reliever enters the playing field. 3 Teams are limited to a maximum of three mound visits per game, not including pitching changes. <P> DUNEDIN, Fla. -- Major League Baseball began briefing its 30 teams this week on its new pace-of-game rules, and clubs are learning that the ramifications will have an impact in a variety of areas, including midinning pitching changes and new ways for managers to signal for replay reviews. As with between-inning breaks, relievers are supposed to throw their final warm-up pitch with 30 seconds left on the clock. That change wasn't specified in last week's news release announcing the new rules but was included in MLB's written explanation of the changes to all 30 clubs. <P> 1 Pitchers must throw a pitch within 20 seconds of receiving the ball. 2 Clocks posted in each dugout will count down the 20 seconds. 3 There will be a maximum break between innings of 2:05, with a clock keeping track. 4 Hitters must be in the batter's box by 1:45. 5 If the hitter's not ready, the umpire can call a strike. 1 If the pitcher doesn't throw a pitch by 2:05, the umpire can call a ball. 2 Teams will have a maximum of 2:30 to change pitchers, with the clock starting as soon as the reliever enters the playing field. 3 Teams are limited to a maximum of three mound visits per game, not including pitching changes. <P> It is 2 minutes 45 seconds, not 2 hours 45 seconds. Tim Rohan contributed reporting from Port St. Lucie, Fla. A version of this article appears in print on February 21, 2015, on page D4 of the New York edition with the headline: Major League Baseball Issues New Rules to Quicken the Pace of Games. <P> MLB to use timers during breaks in action and will force batters to stay in the box, among other changes. By. Major League Baseball announced new rules Friday aimed at speeding up the plodding pace of its games. Beginning this season, hitters will be required to keep one foot in the batter’s box during at-bats and managers will no longer be required to leave the dugout to challenge calls.

how to handle a lake trout
|
<P> Think Like the Trout. Before you bait a hook or choose a lure, remember to think about what your game fish prefers to eat. In the case of lake trout, you can't go wrong with minnows -- small ones. Lake trout have been known to feed on other small freshwater baitfish such as perch, smelts, herring and sunfish. You can find lake trout in cooler northern waters. They live throughout the Great Lakes region and Canada, as well as in Alaska, Washington, Idaho, Wyoming and much of New England. They also appear in a few more southerly lakes in California, Utah, Colorado, Kentucky and Tennessee. <P> They will flop around if you dangle them by the jaw though. Trout are a lot more fragile though. A lot of trout do not need to be netted or handled. You could release them in the water by pinch the hook with a hemostat or a very thin needlenose plier and give it a light twist or lift will remove the hook. Just be carful not to pinch the knot or you'll give the fish a free bling bling. Fish usually flop around a lot less in those fine mesh net. If you must touch trout and you intend to release it, be sure to wet your hands first. Scales and protective slime will stick onto dry hands a lot better. Here is a fine mesh net: http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templa... <P> In the spring the Lake Trout are shallow so you can just troll along the shore or around islands in any boat or cast towards rocky points and the dark water just off the edge of sandbars with Little Cleos, Crocodiles or other casting spoons. 1) You can't feel the Lake Trout bite and you can't set the hook normally, which is half the fun. The fish either stays on the line or it does not stay on. You miss a lot of fish that strike because you can't set the hook right away. <P> In a spring-fed lake, lake trout might always be close to the surface. On the whole, however, you can expect to fish lake trout from the boat, not from the shore. You'll always find more game fish near underwater formations -- sandbars, rocks, docks, shoals, wrecks, whatever. You can find lake trout in cooler northern waters. They live throughout the Great Lakes region and Canada, as well as in Alaska, Washington, Idaho, Wyoming and much of New England. They also appear in a few more southerly lakes in California, Utah, Colorado, Kentucky and Tennessee. <P> 1. Use a light-action rod with 4 to 6 pound test line. This is the best rod to use for trout fishing and allows you to use a variety of techniques to catch your trout. The lighter line has less friction with the water, allowing you cast your line to the very bottom of the lake with ease. 1 Some lake trout can be over 35 pounds, you will need a heavier rod for these. 2 Use an open faced spinning reel with a thin line. 3 Use either number 6 or 10 hooks. Drop your line near the bottom of the lake and slowly work your way up, jiggling the line to so that your jig resembles a wounded baitfish and attracts your trout. 1 This technique does not require any special rod or reel. 2 This technique works best from a boat, rather than the shore. <P> How to handle trout for catch and release. Posted on: August 11th, 2013 by Rhett No Comments. Studies have shown that the survival rate for catch and release when done properly is between 95% and 99%, (depending on which study you see) so you need not feel guilty about catching and releasing the trout. Where you fish is important if you intend to catch and release. You should start by choosing a stream that is clear. Sediment will hamper the fish to “breath” after it is caught. Also, the trout need oxygenated water to live and that is especially important when the trout is stressed after being caught. <P> 3-Way Swivel Trolling Rig. If you are in a small boat with a 25hp motor or smaller or you are in a big boat with a small kicker motor or electric motor then the very best way to fish deep for Lake Trout is with a 3-way swivel rig. 1) You can't feel the Lake Trout bite and you can't set the hook normally, which is half the fun. The fish either stays on the line or it does not stay on. You miss a lot of fish that strike because you can't set the hook right away. <P> 2) You have a big steel ball screaming through the water and the Lake Trout tend to swim off to the side and away from the path of the lure. 3) In a big boat with multiple lines you can't stop the boat so you just horse the trout in and don't feel the fight or strength of the fish. 1) You can't feel the Lake Trout bite and you can't set the hook normally, which is half the fun. The fish either stays on the line or it does not stay on. You miss a lot of fish that strike because you can't set the hook right away.

weight do professional dart players use
|
<P> a profesional dart can be up to 30 lbs Edit: Assuming you are talking about the dart board game, the professionals on average use from 18 to 23 gram darts. Some use lighter an … d some use heavier. I use 26 gram darts as does Phil Taylor. It all comes down to what you're comfortable with. <P> Best Answer: the weight on a dart depends on the player, phil taylor throws a 24 gram dart, but dennis priestley throws a 14 gram dart. Bdo playing rules say that a dart can be no heavier than 50 grams and no longer than 12 inches. my darts are 22 grams. <P> Confidence votes 217. There are a few that use lighter weights, even 14 grams, and some that use heavier, around 30 grams. However most professional dart players use from 18 to 23 grams. It's best though to throw what you're comfortable with. I myself use 26 gram darts. Heavy darts make the release a bit easier and stick in the board better, but can be less accurate than lighter darts as they are heavier to throw. <P> There are a few that use lighter weights, even 14 grams, and some that use heavier, around 30 grams.

papaya as meat tenderizer
|
<P> The most common meat tenderizer used in India is raw (un-ripened) papaya. The leaves, and green skin of raw papaya contain an enzyme called Papain. The connective tissue in the meat breaks down when it comes in contact with Papain. Papaya is preferred tenderizer for red meat (Lamb, Mutton, Goat, Beef). It can be used for fowl. You do not need to add salt. Adolph's meat tenderizer already has the salt. Add one teaspoon to 1 Tablespoon of water to make Papaya paste. You need 2 Tablespoon of Papaya paste for one pound of meat, it only hast 2 teaspoons of the Adolph's meat tenderizer. <P> A meat tenderizer is used to tenderize slabs of meat in preparation for cooking the meat. Pineapple and raw papaya are excellent meat tenderizers pineapple and papaya used as meat tenderizer. Ingredients. http://www.vahrehvah.com/meat-tenderi... Ingredients: <P> In an older entry about using baking soda as meat tenderizer, I mentioned that my father once told me how papaya leaves can be used as meat tenderizer. The way I understood him, the papaya leaves are crushed, spread on the meat and allowed to infuse overnight. The papaya leaves are rinsed off before cooking. <P> The papaya fruit and papaya seeds are a prime source of an enzyme called papain that breaks down protein. This active tenderizing ingredient is a protein-digesting enzyme which is very similar to human stomach pepsin. Papain powder made from papayas and other fruits are sold as brand name meat tenderizers. My father -- the cook in the family -- would use papaya seeds to tenderize tough cuts of meat. This is how he did it. First, use a mortar and pestle or spice grinder to grind the papaya seeds. <P> In United States, Papain is available in Grocery stores as Adolph's Meat Tenderizer. You can also buy Papain in tablet for at health food stores. If you score the skin of a raw Papaya with knife, the fruit will exude a milky white substance known as the latex that contains Papain. You do not need to add salt. Adolph's meat tenderizer already has the salt. Add one teaspoon to 1 Tablespoon of water to make Papaya paste. You need 2 Tablespoon of Papaya paste for one pound of meat, it only hast 2 teaspoons of the Adolph's meat tenderizer. <P> To make your own natural meat tenderizer, you can use fresh papaya seeds or dry papaya seeds -- just wash the seeds and spread them on a paper towel in a plate, then set the plate on a sunny window sill to dry for a few days. My father -- the cook in the family -- would use papaya seeds to tenderize tough cuts of meat. This is how he did it. First, use a mortar and pestle or spice grinder to grind the papaya seeds. <P> Papain is taken from the fruit of the papaya tree. It is used to make medicine. Papain is used for pain and swelling (inflammation) as well as fluid retention following trauma and surgery. <P> Papain, also known as papaya proteinase I, is a cysteine protease (EC 3.4.22.2) enzyme present in papaya (Carica papaya) and mountain papaya (Vasconcellea cundinamarcensis). Papain belongs to a family of related proteins with a wide variety of activities, including endopeptidases, aminopeptidases, dipeptidyl peptidases and enzymes with both exo-and endo-peptidase activity. <P> Unripe Green Papaya. Unripe papaya contains an enzyme called papain. Even the leaves of the papaya tree contains this enzyme. Papain works as a meat tenderizer by breaking down the connective tissues of the meat that it comes into contact with. This works on all types of meat such as chicken, beef, lamb, and pork. So how does it work? It’s actually quite simple to do if you have a couple common kitchen utensils. To prepare a meat tenderizer using green papaya, you first take a whole green papaya and peel the skin of the papaya up to about 1 ⁄ 4 inch deep. You will know you have peeled deep enough when the white flesh of the papaya is exposed.

name the valve that prevents regurgitation
|
<P> Mitral Valve Prolapse. In MVP, when the left ventricle contracts, one or both flaps of the mitral valve flop or bulge back (prolapse) into the left atrium. This can prevent the valve from forming a tight seal. As a result, blood may leak from the ventricle back into the atrium. The backflow of blood is called regurgitation (re-GUR-jih-TA-shun). MVP doesn't always cause backflow. <P> What is the name of the valve that prevents regurgitation of food from the small intestine back into the stomach? <P> For the type of tooth, see dental anatomy. The tricuspid valve, or right atrioventricular valve, is on the right dorsal side of the mammalian heart, between the right atrium and the right ventricle. The function of the valve is to prevent back flow of blood into the right atrium. <P> Mitral regurgitation is sometimes called mitral insufficiency or mitral incompetence. In mitral regurgitation the valve does not close properly. This causes blood to leak back (regurgitate) into the left atrium when the left ventricle contracts. Basically, the more open the valve remains, the more blood regurgitates, the more severe the problem. Mitral regurgitation can occur if the valve is weakened or damaged. Mitral valve prolapse. This is also called floppy mitral valve. In this condition the valve is slightly deformed and bulges back into the left atrium when the ventricle contracts. This can let a small amount of blood leak back into the left atrium. As many as 1 in 20 people have some degree of m <P> See also: aortic insufficiency and tricuspid insufficiency. Mitral insufficiency (MI) , mitral regurgitation or mitral incompetence is a disorder of the heart in which the mitral valve does not close properly when the heart pumps out blood. The mitral valve apparatus comprises two valve leaflets, the mitral valve annulus, which forms a ring around the valve leaflets, and the papillary muscles, which tether the valve leaflets to the left ventricle and prevent them from prolapsing into the left atrium. <P> 1 Mitral regurgitation is the most common type of valve problem. 2 Aortic valve regurgitation may stem from a congenital heart defect, complications of an infection or other more rare causes. 3 Pulmonary or spumoni regurgitation is more rare and is usually a result of other problems like pulmonary hypertension. Regurgitation is the name for leaking heart valves. Sometimes the condition is minor and may not require treatment, but other times valve regurgitation places a strain on the heart. It can cause the heart to work harder to pump the same amount of blood. Regurgitation occurs when: <P> Mitral valve prolapse and regurgitation. When your heart is working properly, the mitral valve closes completely during contraction of the left ventricle and prevents blood from flowing back into your heart's upper left chamber (left atrium). The bulging may keep the valve from closing tightly. When blood leaks backward through the valve, it's called mitral valve regurgitation. This may not cause problems if only a small amount of blood leaks back into the atrium. <P> As the right ventricle contracts, the tricuspid valve closes and the pulmonary valve opens. The closure of the tricuspid valve prevents blood from backing into the right atrium and the opening of the pulmonary valve allows the blood to flow into the pulmonary artery toward the lungs. Left Ventricle. Left Ventricle: The left ventricle receives oxygenated blood as the left atrium contracts. The closure of the mitral valve prevents blood from backing into the left atrium and the opening of the aortic valve allows the blood to flow into the aorta and flow throughout the body. Aortic Valve. Aortic Valve: The aortic valve separates the left ventricle from the aorta. <P> Mitral regurgitation is where blood leaks back through the mitral valve in the heart as the valve does not close properly. This increases the pressure in the left atrium and in the blood vessels coming from the lungs. This may lead to various problems and symptoms, depending on the severity of the leak. Mitral valve prolapse. This is also called floppy mitral valve. In this condition the valve is slightly deformed and bulges back into the left atrium when the ventricle contracts. This can let a small amount of blood leak back into the left atrium. As many as 1 in 20 people have some degree of m

how does emotion affect memory
|
<P> While these previous studies focused on how emotion affects memory for emotionally arousing stimuli, in their arousal-biased competition theory, Mather and Sutherland (2011) argue that how arousal influences memory for non-emotional stimuli depends on the priority of those stimuli at the time of the arousal. An interesting issue in the study of the emotion-memory relationship is whether our emotions are influenced by our behavioral reaction to them, and whether this reaction—in the form of expression or suppression of the emotion—might affect what we remember about an event. <P> -This article explains how emotions can distort memory. 2. Affect of Mood and Emotion. -This article explains the different effects that mood and emotion have on memory. 3. Brain Structure Video. -This video demonstration what structures in the brain are affected by emotion. 4. Stress and Memory-. -This video displays how a stressful mood can have a negative effect on memory. 5. Interaction of Regions in the Brain. - This article describes the interactions of the amygdala and hippocampus during emotional situations. <P> Notwithstanding this study, however, it does seem clear that, in some circumstances and for some types of stimuli, at least, the emotional attributes of a stimulus do affect the way we perceive it and process it-that is, the encoding of the memory. Another aspect of emotion is mood-your emotional state at the time of encoding or retrieving. There has been quite a lot of research on the effect of mood on memory. It is clear that mood affects what is noticed and encoded. <P> However, as with emotional content, we cannot simply say that emotional state affects memory. The nature of the emotion being felt is also important. And this, too, is not straightforward. We cannot simply say, for example, that anxiety impairs memory and happiness improves it. Another aspect of emotion is mood-your emotional state at the time of encoding or retrieving. There has been quite a lot of research on the effect of mood on memory. It is clear that mood affects what is noticed and encoded. <P> “1. It builds long-term memory. The more intensely that you engage the emotions, the longer you’ll recall what you have learned. In fact, what you remember most from your childhood are your lowest lows and your highest highs. 2. <P> To gain a better perspective of the link between emotion and memory and their dependence on each other, we dig deeper into how these two correlate. How Emotions Affect Our Memories. There are varied factors that come into play when considering the case of how emotions affect our memories. Let's first draw an outline on how an emotion controls our memory, as and when a scenario presents itself. The hippocampus is an important part of the brain that behaves like an organizer that separates the memory into different areas of the brain meant for permanent storage, while also being able to tap into these memories upon recollection. <P> How Do Emotions Affect Memory. The human brain is a fascinating organ where its labyrinthine structure has secret passages that scientists are still trying to uncover. We find out in particular how memory influences the way we store, dismiss and retrieve information based on how we feel. The hippocampus is an important part of the brain that behaves like an organizer that separates the memory into different areas of the brain meant for permanent storage, while also being able to tap into these memories upon recollection. <P> Emotion can have a powerful impact on memory. Numerous studies have shown that the most vivid autobiographical memories tend to be of emotional events, which are likely to be recalled more often and with more clarity and detail than neutral events. An interesting issue in the study of the emotion-memory relationship is whether our emotions are influenced by our behavioral reaction to them, and whether this reaction—in the form of expression or suppression of the emotion—might affect what we remember about an event. <P> However, accurate expression of emotion does seem to require considerable expertise (if the emotion is not, in fact, being felt) - people are very good at distinguishing false expressions of emotion. The way people go about controlling their reactions to emotional events does seem to affect their memory of the event. People shown a video of an emotional event and instructed not to let their emotions show were found to have a poorer memory for what was said and done than did those who were given no such instructions. Another aspect of emotion is mood-your emotional state at the time of encoding or retrieving. There has been quite a lot of research on the effect of mood on memory. It is clear that mood affects what is noticed and encoded.

<P> This term is used by companies that offer subscription services to clients for example, telephone carriers, Internet service providers, and hosts. It is a measure of the revenue generated by one customer phone, pager, etc., per unit time, typically per year or month. A related measure is ARPDAU (Average Revenue Per Daily Active User) and a less used measure of AMPU, or average margin per user. ARPU is widely used by Internet Protocol television (IPTV) service providers. <P> For their 2005 fiscal years, these companies had sales per employee figures of only $320,215 and $293,883, respectively. The comparison of Microsoft (Nasdaq:MSFT) and Wal-Mart (WMT), two businesses in very different industries, illustrates how the sales per employee ratio can differ because of this circumstance. The sales, or revenue, figure is the numerator (income statement), and the average number of employees for the year is the denominator (annual report or Form 10-K). <P> Whenever I see this type of information for a company, I usually calculate the simple ratio of Revenue Per Employee. For example, for a video production company mentioned, with sales of $15 million and 130 employees, the Revenue Per Employee is about $115,000. For Optiva, a maker of a sonic toothbrush, and another company profiled, the revenue was $100 million. Optiva had 250 employees, giving a Revenue Per Employee of $400,000. Revenue Per Employee is a key ratio for start-up companies. A low Revenue Per Employee in comparison to similar companies is a bad sign, often boding possible failure.

Average revenue per unit allows for the analysis of a company's revenue generation and growth at the per-unit level, which can help investors to identify which products are high or low revenue-generators. Next Up. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Average revenue per user (sometimes known as average revenue per unit), usually abbreviated to ARPU, is a measure used primarily by consumer communications and networking companies, defined as the total revenue divided by the number of subscribers.

what is distal caries
|
<P> distal caries. Definitions: 1. loss of structure on the tooth surface that is directed away from the median plane of the dental arch. The definition information for distal caries is provided by Stedman's. You can search our medical dictionary here. Stedman's, part of Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, provides a comprehensive line of health-science publications for healthcare professionals and medical students. <P> Dental caries or cavities, more commonly known as tooth decay, are caused by a breakdown of the tooth enamel. This breakdown is the result of bacteria on teeth that breakdown foods and produce acid that destroys tooth enamel and results in tooth decay. <P> No caries was found in relation to transverse impactions.It was concluded that distal caries in second molars is common, especially in cases of mesioangularmandibular third molar impactions and prophylactic removal of these impacted teeth may beconsidered appropriate. 19 The development of distal cervical caries in man-dibular second molar is a protracted process whichdevelops over time and increases with continued expo-sure to the oral cavity. The incidence of second molardistal caries as reported is between 0.5–8%. <P> Dental caries (caries is Latin for rottenness), also known as tooth decay, cavities, or caries, is a breakdown of teeth due to activities of bacteria. The cavities may be a number of different colors from yellow to black. Symptoms may include pain and difficulty with eating. The cause of caries is bacterial break down of the hard tissues of the teeth (enamel, dentin and cementum). This occurs due to acid made from food debris or sugar on the tooth surface. Simple sugars in food are these bacteria's primary energy source and thus a diet high in simple sugar is a risk factor <P> Related Conditions. Cavities are a result of poor oral hygiene and retained dental plaque on the tooth surface. Specific bacteria in plaque cause decay. Different types of bacteria in plaque, retained near the gum line, cause gum disease to occur, which is a condition that your dentist and periodontist can help treat. Cavities refer to tooth decay, which occurs when specific types of bacteria produce acid that destroys the tooth’s enamel and its underlying layer, the dentin. 1 All About Cavities. 2 Dental Caries: How They Are Formed and What You Can Do to Prevent Them. <P> Dental caries is the scientific term for tooth decay or cavities. It is caused by specific types of bacteria. They produce acid that destroys the tooth's enamel and the layer under it, the dentin. Eventually, uncontrolled decay may destroy the tooth. Having caries increases your risk of more caries for several reasons: 1 Caries is caused by bacteria. 2 The more decay you have, the more bacteria exist in your mouth. 3 The same oral care and dietary habits that led to the decay of your teeth will cause more decay. <P> These medical condition or symptom topics may be relevant to medical information for Distal caries: 1 Distal. 2 Caries. 3 Loss. 4 Structure. 5 Tooth. 6 Tooth symptoms (886 causes). 7 Tooth disorder. 8 Tooth pain (15 causes). 9 Surface. 10 Median. <P> A RealAge answered. A distal cavity is an area of decay on a tooth surface, this surface being the furthest from the middle of the front of your jaw. These types of cavities often occur on a part of a tooth that faces an adjacent mesial tooth surface. The terms distal (and mesial) are used to denote the location of a cavity relative to the front of the jaw. <P> Just to clarify; if you get caries in between your back teeth e.g. mesial (M) caries, the dentist will call out MO because in order to access the caries they must drill through the occlusal (O) surface making the filling an MO-it is impossible to fill this area otherwise. The previous chapter on where you can get caries is also useful reading if you just skipped ahead to this one. 1 Smooth surface caries. 2 This means decay on the easily seen and cleaned fronts and backs of the front teeth and the sides and insides of back teeth. 3 Approximal or interporximal caries.

how long is the process for weight loss surgery
|
<P> Combined Restrictive/Malabsorptive Weight Loss Surgeries. Advantages: Most patients lose weight quickly and continue to lose for 18 to 24 months after the procedure. With the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, many patients maintain a weight loss of 60 to 70 percent of their excess weight for 10 years or more. <P> A new surgical weight-loss procedure is now available to women who are looking to slim down and lose 25 to 70 pounds. Dr. Tom Lavin, founder of Surgical Specialists in Louisiana, is a pioneer behind the hottest new weight-loss procedure called POSE, which stands for primary obesity surgery endoluminol. POSE is for patients who want to lose 25-50, maybe 60 or 70 pounds, says Lavin. <P> 7. If I want to undergo a gastric bypass, how long do I have to wait? New evaluation appointments are usually booked 4-6 weeks in advance. Once a patient is seen, if the surgeon and patient agree it is appropriate, the patient is enrolled in our weight loss surgery program which is about 6 months. <P> One study shows that the average time from the point someone considers weight loss surgery to actually having the procedure is 3 years. A lot of time can be spent studying, reading and talking to post-op patients about their surgery. The average cost of gastric bypass surgery is $23,000, the average cost of lap band is $14,500, and the average cost of sleeve gastrectomy surgery is $14,900. So before getting too involved, spend time determining if your insurance will cover weight loss surgery <P> FAQ: Recovery After Surgery. Q: What is the recovery period for each type of weight loss surgery? A: One to three weeks for the Adjustable Gastric Band; two to three weeks for the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy; two to six weeks for the Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass. Q: What will my diet look like after weight loss surgery? A: After surgery, you must learn how to eat again. You will consume full liquids (soups, protein drinks and yogurt) for one to three weeks, pureed foods for two to three weeks, and then soft, regular foods. <P> A Dr. Anthony Gonzalez, MD, Surgery, answered on behalf of Baptist Health South Florida. Typically, gastric band weight-loss surgery takes about 30 minutes; gastric sleeve and gastric bypass surgeries typically last for just under one hour. The hospital stay can be a day for gastric band surgery and up to two days for a gastric sleeve or gastric bypass procedure. At South Miami Hospital’s Weight-loss Surgery Program, we have processes in place to ensure patients receive the best care. <P> Gastric Bypass. Initial weight loss with the gastric bypass is approximately 3 lbs. to 5 lbs. per week for the first 3 to 6 months. Over 18 months, a gastric bypass can result in the loss of about 65 percent to 75 percent of excess weight. <P> Patients are asked to lose some weight prior to surgery in a healthy manner to optimize the results of the surgery itself, usually about 10% of their weight. Pre-Operative weight loss has been shown to shrink the liver size which may be enlarged and fatty in an obese person. 1 Write a letter to yourself and your surgeon explaining your reasons for having the surgery and outlining your plans to maintain your weight loss after surgery. 2 Start a journal about your experience. 3 Record how you feel now, the obstacles you encounter, the things you hope to be able to do <P> Qualifying for surgery as a weight loss option. Weight loss surgery is not right for everyone. You should take in consideration of all the hard work, lifestyle change and motivation it will take after surgery. 1 Write a letter to yourself and your surgeon explaining your reasons for having the surgery and outlining your plans to maintain your weight loss after surgery. 2 Start a journal about your experience. 3 Record how you feel now, the obstacles you encounter, the things you hope to be able to do <P> A. Again, your time off of work will depend on the type of weight loss surgery you have and the type of work you do. In general, plan to take about two to four weeks off of work. A. The amount of weight you lose -- and how fast you lose it -- depends on which weight loss surgery you have. Patients who have adjustable gastric banding (Lap-Band ®) procedures usually lose weight more slowly the first year than those who have gastric bypass (RYGB) or duodenal switch procedures (DS).

what is cryptology
|
<P> In symmetric systems the same key (the secret key) is used to encrypt and decrypt a message. Data manipulation in symmetric systems is faster than asymmetric systems as they generally use shorter key lengths. Asymmetric systems use public key to encrypt a message and a private key to decrypt it. Use of asymmetric systems enhances the security of communication. In colloquial use, the term code is often used to mean any method of encryption or concealment of meaning. Symmetric-key cryptography, where a single key is used for encryption and decryption. Symmetric-key cryptography refers to encryption methods in which both the sender and receiver share the same key (or, less commonly, in which their keys are different, but related in an easily computable way). <P> Modern cryptography is heavily based on mathematical theory and computer science practice; cryptographic algorithms are designed around computational hardness assumptions, making such algorithms hard to break in practice by any adversary. Symmetric-key cryptography, where a single key is used for encryption and decryption. Symmetric-key cryptography refers to encryption methods in which both the sender and receiver share the same key (or, less commonly, in which their keys are different, but related in an easily computable way). <P> Purpose. Cryptography is the use of codes to convert data so that only a specific recipient will be able to read it, using a key. <P> This leads us to more general problem of cryptology than of the intractability of the various mathematical concepts, which is that the more time, effort, and resources that can be devoted to studying a problem, then the greater the possibility that a solution, or at least a weakness, will be found. <P> You won't believe these 10 facts about people. Cryptology or cryptography is the study and process of encoding and decoding plain text messages so that they cannot be read by anyone without a guide or key. Cryptology is the study and process of encoding and decoding plain text messages so they cannot be ready by other people without a guide. <P> Cryptography for Network and Information Security. Cryptography is a cornerstone of the modern electronic security technologies used today to protect valuable information resources on intranets, extranets, and the Internet. <P> Full Definition of CRYPTOGRAPHY. 1. : secret writing. 2. : the enciphering and deciphering of messages in secret code or cipher; also: the computerized encoding and decoding of information. 3. : cryptanalysis. See cryptography defined for English-language learners. See cryptography defined for kids. ADVERTISEMENT. <P> Today, cryptology is often very technical in encoding or decoding processes, due to the use of computers. Computers can frequently evolve codes that are virtually unbreakable. A certain amount of cryptology is necessary too, to protect the security of computers. Cryptology is the study and process of encoding and decoding plain text messages so they cannot be ready by other people without a guide. <P> Cryptography is the science of providing security for information. It has been used historically as a means of providing secure communication between individuals, government agencies, and military forces. Today, cryptography is a cornerstone of the modern security technologies used to protect information and resources on both open and closed networks. Top Of Page.
