salary per annum pro rata
<P> It means the figure shown as a wage in a job ad won't be what you'll be paid. EG - £30k per annum (pro rata) for a job advertised as 17.5 hours per week would probably pay around £15k-the £30k refers to the full time pay. Phlodgeybodge · 9 years ago. Thumbs up. 1. <P> Report Abuse. pro rata means accordingly calculated in latin. Per annum means per year in latin. It means that if the pay was £25,000 a year for a full time person you'd get it calculated for the part time position but it's easier to understand how much the salary is if it is written like this. EG - £30k per annum (pro rata) for a job advertised as 17.5 hours per week would probably pay around £15k-the £30k refers to the full time pay. Phlodgeybodge · 9 years ago. Thumbs up. 1. <P> For example: 23789 per annum for full time (37.5hrs) contracted hours 22.5hrs (23789 per annum Pro Rata - 22.5 hrs per week). 23789 divided by 37.5 x 22.5 = 14273.40 Gross per annum. Stick the 14273.40 into the salary calculator on the homepage and you will see the net per month/week/ etc :D. <P> My definition: Pro rata, when it comes to jobs, generally refers to pay. Say the salary is '$40,000 per annum-pro rata', it will mean that if you only work part time, you get part of the pay. A standard week is (about) 40 hours, so the pay for 20 hours will be $20,000 per annum. <P> Calculation. To arrive at your pro rata salary, you must know what the job pays on a full-time basis, what your employer views as full-time hours, the number of weeks you will be working during the year and your required work hours per week. Your pro rata salary is proportionate to the amount that a full-time employee -- who works the same job and has the same qualifications as you -- would receive. For example, this may happen to a teacher who works on a part-time basis for a college or university. Assume a full-time teacher makes $48,000 per year, based on a 40-hour work week, and does the same work you do. If you work 20 hours per week, your annual pro rata salary would be half of $48,000, or $24,000 <P> Answers. Best Answer: well per annum means per year. Pro rata means at that rate. So for example,if you work the full 37.5 hours per week for the full year you will earn £20,000 per annum, however if you end up working half of that you would earn £10,000. So if you only work 3months that is a 1/4 of £20,000, so you would earn £20,000/4 = £5,000. Source(s): Hey, Can anyone help me understand what this means. If your salary will be £20,000 per annum pro rata what does this means? This is for full time work, 37.5 hrs per week, but only for 3 months. <P> This post is for 38 weeks per year, working 40 hours per week, 8.30-5.30 Monday to Friday. Salary will be in the region of £28,000 - £32,000 per annum, pro rata, depending on qualifications and experience. Contact. <P> Hi If the job states £15,000 per annum for 20 hours a week then that is what you will earn, ie £15,000. However if it mentions pro-rata then you need to find out what it is pro-rata to. For example a job might be £15,000 per annum based on 40 hours a week, so if you are doing 20 hours you would get £7,500 of it because you have done half the hours. Or it could be that it is a short term job like a temporary contract, £15,000 per annum pro rata, so if you are there for 1 month you would get 1/12 of the £15,000. Normally jobs are based on 1 working week of 37.5 hours so I would check carefully that the 20 hours isn't pro-rata Gavin. Gavin T · 8 years ago. Thumbs up. <P> For reduced hours, most employers will multiply the full-time salary by the reduced number of hours divided by the full-time hours. For example, if the full-time salary is £20,000 per year for 37.5 hours’ work per week, the pro-rata salary based on a 18-hour working week would be: £20,000 x (18 / 37.5) = £9,600. Income tax, National Insurance and other deductions are then calculated based on this new salary.

The term sweetmeats usually refers to candy or sweet confections, and it is often shortened simply to sweets.. They likely first began as a way of preserving fruit and/or nuts with sugar. Post 4. @pocurana-It's quite possible that the word meat is used to describe these sweet candies in relation to the core of the candy rather than the meat (as in dead animal meant to for consumption) we think of most often today.

The word sweetbread is first attested in the 16th century, but the etymology of the name is unclear. Sweet is perhaps used since the thymus is sweet and rich-tasting, as opposed to savory-tasting muscle flesh. Bread may come from brede, roasted meat or from the Old English brǣd (flesh or meat).

what is a pistil in a flower
<P> Petal: The parts of a flower that are often conspicuously colored. Stamen: The pollen producing part of a flower, usually with a slender filament supporting the anther. Anther: The part of the stamen where pollen is produced. Pistil: The ovule producing part of a flower. The ovary often supports a long style, topped by a stigma. The mature ovary is a fruit, and the mature ovule is a seed. Stigma: The part of the pistil where pollen germinates <P> The Pistil. In plants that reproduce by flowering (angiosperms), the pistil is the female reproductive portion (the gynoecium) of the flower. <P> The pistil is a flower's female organ. Pistils are typically located in the center of the flower and are surrounded by petals, sepals and stamens. Some flowers, such as the sweet pea, have one simple pistil, while others, including larkspur, have more than five pistils. Flower pistils consist of three parts: the ovary, the style and the stigma. <P> The pistil is the collective term for the female reproductive structures in the flower-The Stigma, Style, Ovary and Ovule. Pistil or the female reproduction structure is the innermost whorl, located in the center of the flower. Often vase-shaped, the pistil consists of three parts: the stigma, the … style and the ovary. <P> Noun. 1. pistil-the female ovule-bearing part of a flower composed of ovary and style and stigma. blossom, flower, bloom-reproductive organ of angiosperm plants especially one having showy or colorful parts. reproductive structure-the parts of a plant involved in its reproduction. simple pistil-consists of one carpel <P> Best Answer: The pistil's function is reproduction. The stigma, the head of the pistil, provides a place for pollen grains to land and germinate. The style, the long part of the pistil, provides protection for the pollen tube that emerges from the pollen grain and grows down the inside of the pistil into the ovary. <P> Gynoecium (from Ancient Greek γυνή, gyne, meaning woman, and οἶκος, oikos, meaning house) is most commonly used as a collective term for the parts of a flower that produce ovules and ultimately develop into the fruit and seeds. The gynoecium is the innermost whorl of (one or more) pistils in a flower and is typically surrounded by the pollen-producing reproductive organs, the stamens, collectively called the androecium. <P> : the part in the center of a flower that is made up of the stigma, style, and ovary and produces the seed. Spanish Central: Spanish translation of pistil.

why is litter and waste a problem
<P> Litter and waste is chosen as the first. theme because: The subject is particularly relevant to and part of the curriculum in both primary and secondary schools. Litter is a visible problem; both students and the local community will notice improvements in the appearance and image of the school. <P> Litter can cause a whole range of problems for everyone in our communities. Litter discarded in streets and parks can travel through the storm water system to our rivers and creeks, where it can cause harm to wildlife. 1 Litter costs money. <P> Litter is always caused by people. It is waste in the wrong place which ruins the appearance of our towns and countryside. Litter has many forms and many sources, from a sweet wrapper thrown on the street to a dumped bag of rubbish or a fly-tipped load of demolition rubble. <P> It is amazing that 94% of people identify litter as a major environmental problem and yet people still litter. Carelessly discarded garbage affects every member of society: it causes harm to people and animals, damages our waterways, cost us money and suggests that we do not care for our environment. <P> 1 Removing litter from the environment costs everyone money. 2 Litter is a threat to public health. 3 Litter attracts vermin and is a breeding ground for bacteria. 4 Items such as broken glass and syringes can be a health hazard in public places. <P> Contacts for waste and litter pollution. Where the depositing of waste causes or threatens material harm to the environment, a number of authorities must be notified-see duty to notify. <P> Before you even start to think about the solution you need to find out more about the problem. Carry out a litter survey in and around the school to find out how big your litter problem is and who or what causes it. <P> Research and experience have shown that litter is the result of individual behavior—choosing to litter or being careless in the handling of waste. And once litter is on the ground, it attracts more litter. A clean community, by contrast, can discourage littering and improve community appearance and quality of life. <P> Cats are fastidious creatures, and nowhere is that more evident than in their litter box habits. When your cat won’t use the litter box -- and at least 10% of all cats develop an elimination problem -- the cause could be anything from an unclean box to an illness.

what is a homolog
<P> In the context of biology, homology is the existence of shared ancestry between a pair of structures, or genes, in different species. A common example of homologous structures in evolutionary biology are the wings of bats and the arms of primates. Evolutionary theory explains the existence of homologous structures adapted to different purposes as the result of descent with modification from a common ancestor. <P> 1 The term, homolog, may apply to the relationship between genes separated by the event of speciation (see ortholog) or to the relationship betwen genes separated by the event of genetic duplication (see paralog). 2 Orthologs are genes in different species that evolved from a common ancestral gene by speciation. <P> 1 A gene related to a second gene by descent from a common ancestral DNA sequence. 2 The term, homolog, may apply to the relationship between genes separated by the event of speciation (see ortholog) or to the relationship betwen genes separated by the event of genetic duplication (see paralog). <P> The word homology, coined in about 1656, derives from the Greek ὁμόλογος homologos from ὁμός homos same and λόγος logos relation. In biology, two things are homologous if they bear the same relationship to one another, such as a certain bone in various forms of the hand. <P> Definition of Homolog, Ortholog and Paralog. It was suggested that I might want to provide definitions which made the difference between these terms clear. These definitions are provided here. 1 A gene related to a second gene by descent from a common ancestral DNA sequence. <P> Homology is a relationship defined between structures or DNA derived from a common ancestor. Homologous traits of organisms are therefore explained by descent <P> Medical Definition of HOMOLOGY. 1. a: likeness in structure between parts of different organisms due to evolutionary differentiation from the same or a corresponding part of a remote ancestor—compare analogy, homomorphy b: correspondence in structure between different parts of the same individual. 2.
Relationship between genes separated by the event of speciation.
which characteristic makes a cell membrane selectively permeable
<P> 3. One important feature of plasma membranes is that they are selectively permeable. Selectively permeable means that substances can pass through the cell membrane but other substances can’t. Sometimes this selectivity is passive. It does not require the cell to do any work. <P> All cells are enclosed with a cell membrane. A selectively permeable cell membrane is one that allows certain molecules or ions to pass through it by means of active or passive transport. Active transport processes require the cell to expend energy to move the materials, while passive transport can be done without using cellular energy. Selectively permeable membranes can be found around a variety of cells and places. The most common example is the phospholipid bilayer cell membrane that surrounds every cell in our bodies. Another example of a selectively permeable membrane is the inner membranes of an egg. <P> Summary. The cell membrane is semi permeable-meaning some particles can cross the membrane while others may not. It is made up of layers that are both attracted to water-the phosphate bilayers and layers that are hydrophobic (fatty acid layers). Outside of the cell water makes the phosphate layers line up. Osmosis is the movement of water across the semi permeable cell membrane. The cell membrane has phospholipid bilayers. These layers are made up of glycerol, two fatty acids, and a phosphate. The phosphate part of the cell membrane is attracted to water but the fatty acid part of the membrane is not. <P> However, only the Selectively cells can enter and go out of the cell! Th … is is why the selectively permeable membrane is permeable! A cell membrane (the outer casing or inner casing in a plant cell) is selectively permeable because some materials can pass freely through the cell membrane while others cannot.

what else are skeletal muscles called
<P> They are called skeletal muscles because they are almost always found attached to the skeleton and produce movements in different parts of the skeleton. Smooth Muscles: Smooth muscles form the soft body organs like stomach, intestine, blood vessels etc. <P> Skeletal muscle is made up of individual muscle cells or myocytes, known as muscle fibers. They are formed from the fusion of developmental myoblasts (a type of embryonic progenitor cell that gives rise to a muscle cell) in a process known as myogenesis. Muscle fibres are cylindrical, and multinucleated. The myofibrils are composed of actin and myosin filaments, repeated in units called sarcomeres, the basic functional units of the muscle fiber. The sarcomere is responsible for the striated appearance of skeletal muscle, and forms the basic machinery necessary for muscle contraction. <P> Skeletal muscles are usually attached to bone by tendons composed of connective tissue. This connective tissue also ensheaths the entire muscle & is called epimysium. Skeletal muscles consist of numerous subunits or bundles called fasicles (or fascicles). <P> Skeletal muscle is an example of muscle tissue, one of the four types of basic tissue. The essential characteristic of muscle tissue is that it shortens or contracts. There are three kinds of muscle tissue, skeletal, cardiac and smooth. At the attachment points of the muscle all the connective tissue elements combine to form the connective tissue attachment of the muscle to bone or other tissue. If this attachment is round and cord-like it is called a tendon. If the attachment is broad and sheet-like it is called an aponeurosis. <P> Skeletal muscle is a form of striated muscle tissue which is under the voluntary control of the somatic nervous system. It is one of three major muscle types, the others being cardiac muscle and smooth muscle. Most skeletal muscles are attached to bones by bundles of collagen fibers known as tendons. The myofibrils are composed of actin and myosin filaments, repeated in units called sarcomeres, the basic functional units of the muscle fiber. The sarcomere is responsible for the striated appearance of skeletal muscle, and forms the basic machinery necessary for muscle contraction. <P> Some skeletal muscles are broad in shape and some narrow. In some muscles the fibers are parallel to the long axis of the muscle; in some they converge to a narrow attachment; and in some they are oblique. Each skeletal muscle fiber is a single cylindrical muscle cell. An individual skeletal muscle may be made up of hundreds, or even thousands, of muscle fibers bundled together and wrapped in a connective tissue covering. Each muscle is surrounded by a connective tissue sheath called the epimysium. Fascia, connective tissue outside the epimysium, surrounds and separates the muscles. <P> Skeletal-muscle Basics. Skeletal muscle is also called striated muscle, because when it is viewed under polarized light or stained with an indicator, you can see alternating stripes of light and dark. Skeletal muscle has a complex structure that is essential to how it contracts. <P> Skeletal muscle is striated muscle tissue that is attached to bones. It is composed of fibers that look like a mixture of dark and light bands bundled together that run along the bone. There are three different types of muscle tissue within the body. Skeletal muscle is striated muscle tissue that is attached to bones. Skeletal muscle attaches to the bones. At the macroscopic level, the skeletal muscles are composed of a variety of layers.

Although fistulas are usually caused by injury or surgery, they may also form after an infection has led to severe inflammation. <P> Colovesical fistula. Definition. noun. (1) An abnormal connection (or passageway) between colon and urinary bladder. (2) A form of vesicointestinal fistula located between the large intestine and urinary bladder. Supplement. Normally the urinary system is not connected to the alimentary canal. However, certain conditions may result in a fistula between them, in this case, between colon and the urinary bladder. <P> These fistulas may form a connection between the bladder and the vagina (vesicovaginal), the skin of the abdomen (vesicocutaneous), or the intestinal tract. Fistulas that connect to any part of the intestine are collectively referred to as vesicoenteric fistulas. Fistulas between the bladder and intestine can occur at the colon (colovesical, most common), rectum (rectovesical), ileum (ileovesical), or the appendix (appendicovesical). The result of any of these conditions is a free exchange of fluids between the bladder and the area connected by the fistula

hematologic response definition
<P> Molecular Response is defined as a negative PCR or other negative molecular test. Molecular responses can only be measured using a Polymerase Chain Reaction/PCR test. A PCR test is defined as a very sensitive test which can be used to detect the presence of very low levels of specific genetic material (DNA) . The response can be partial HR (reduction in white cells,but not down to normal range) or complete CHR (white blood count at or below approximately 12,000 white cells/microliter). Your doctor will anticipate CHR within the first three months of treatment, however, some patients may take longer to achieve this level. <P> 1) C ytogenetic response (CR or CyR): A cytogenetic response means any Ph+ chromosome reading less than what you began with at diagnosis; 2) Major cytogenetic response (MCR or MCyR); Major means 35% or less of the cells in your marrow test positive for the Philadelphia chromosome, but more than 0%; The response can be partial HR (reduction in white cells,but not down to normal range) or complete CHR (white blood count at or below approximately 12,000 white cells/microliter). Your doctor will anticipate CHR within the first three months of treatment, however, some patients may take longer to achieve this level. <P> A major molecular response means that the amount of BCR-ABL protein in your marrow is very low. A complete molecular response, formerly (and sometimes still) referred to as PCRU means that no BCR-ABL protein is detectible in the marrow utilizing the P olymerase C hain R eaction test. Today, the use of PCRU as an indicator of deepest response is changing. The response can be partial HR (reduction in white cells,but not down to normal range) or complete CHR (white blood count at or below approximately 12,000 white cells/microliter). Your doctor will anticipate CHR within the first three months of treatment, however, some patients may take longer to achieve this level. <P> A hematologic response (HR) is one that happens with blood counts. For example, when diagnosed your white count may have been quite high. A positive hematologic response would be indicated by a decrease in your white count. For practical purposes, a HR means that your blood counts have returned to the normal range. A cytogenetic response is indicated by the number (or percentage) of Philadelphia Chromosome positive (PH+) cells contained in the bone marrow. A complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) indicates that no PH+ metaphases are present in the sample. <P> Although imatinib can induce a hematologic response in 52-82% of patients, the response is sustained for at least 4 weeks in only 31-64% of patients. The complete response rate is lower, at 7-34% of patients. In 118 patients with chronic-phase CML, a major cytogenetic response was attained in 32% of patients, a complete cytogenetic response was attained in 24%, and a complete hematologic response was attained in 73%. <P> Major cytogenetic responses occurred in 16% of patients, with 7% of the responses being complete. For patients with chronic-phase CML, imatinib at 400 mg/day is the best candidate for primary therapy, because it induces a complete hematologic response in almost all patients and causes a high cytogenetic response rate. In 118 patients with chronic-phase CML, a major cytogenetic response was attained in 32% of patients, a complete cytogenetic response was attained in 24%, and a complete hematologic response was attained in 73%. <P> In blast phase: 52% of patients achieved a hematologic remission and 31% a sustained remission lasting at least 4 weeks with imatinib mesylate. However, the median response duration is only 10 months, even when considering only patients with sustained remission (i.e., lasting at least 4 weeks). Patients with a lymphoid blastic phase treated with therapy similar to that given for acute lymphocytic leukemia (i.e. vincristine, doxorubicin, and dexamethasone, with or without cyclophosphamide) have a complete response rate of 60%. <P> Standardization studies are ongoing and definition of molecular response currently vary. 1 Complete molecular response: no detectable bcr-abl transcripts by RT-PCR. 2 Major molecular response: ≥ 3-log reduction in the level of bcr-abl transcripts or bcr-abl/abl ratio ≤ 0.05%. Patients with a lymphoid blastic phase treated with therapy similar to that given for acute lymphocytic leukemia (i.e. vincristine, doxorubicin, and dexamethasone, with or without cyclophosphamide) have a complete response rate of 60%. <P> Medical Definition of HEMATOLOGIC. : of or relating to blood or to hematology. — he·ma·to·log·i·cal·ly or chiefly British hae·ma·to·log·i·cal·ly \-i-k(ə-)lē\ adverb.

what is a characteristic of dicotyledonous plants
<P> Daisies, along with most food crops and woody plants such as roses, are dicots. Dicotyledonous plants, commonly called dicots, are one of the two major classes -- along with monocots -- of flowering plants known as angiosperms. Blurred Taxonomy. Some dicotyledonous plants are difficult to classify because they have characteristics of both monocots and dicots. This mixture of characteristics results from the shared ancestry of both classes of angiosperms. DNA sequencing has shown that some dicots may be more closely related to monocots than other dicot <P> di·cot·y·le·don. A flowering plant having two cotyledons that usually appear at germination of the seed. Dicotyledons have leaves with a network of veins radiating from a central main vein, flower parts in multiples of 4 or 5, and a tissue layer known as cambium. Most cultivated plants and many trees are dicotyledons. <P> Monocot and dicot are short for monocotyledon and dicotyledon. These are different types of Angiosperms (flower-producing plants). Monocotyledons have veins going up to the top of the leaf and no midrib, while dicotyledons have veins branching out from a thick, center midrib. Monocots have only one cotyledon in the seed while dicots have two cotyledons <P> They constitute one of the major groups into which flowering plants (or angiosperms) have traditionally been divided, the rest of the flowering plants having two cotyledons and being classed as dicotyledons, or dicots. Historically, this feature was used to contrast the monocots with the dicotyledons or dicots which typically have two cotyledons; however modern research has shown that the dicots are not a natural group. <P> These are different types of Angiosperms (flower-producing plants). Monocotyledons … have veins going up to the top of the leaf and no midrib, while dicotyledons have veins branching out from a thick, center midrib. Monocots have only one cotyledon in the seed while dicots have two cotyledons. <P> Young castor oil plant showing its prominent two embryonic leaves (cotyledons), that differ from the adult leaves. The dicotyledons, also known as dicots (or more rarely dicotyls), were one of the two groups into which all the flowering plants or angiosperms were formerly divided. The traditional dicots are thus a paraphyletic group. The largest clade of the dicotyledons are known as the eudicots. They are distinguished from all other flowering plants by the structure of their pollen. <P> Diffen › Science › Biology › Botany. Flowering plants are divided into monocots (or monocotyledons) and dicots (or dicotyledons). This comparison examines the morphological differences in the leaves, stems, flowers and fruits of monocots and dicots. The number of cotyledons differs in the two types of flowering plants, and forms the basis for the main classification of monocots and dicots. Cotyledons are the seed leaves of the embryo and contain nutrition for the embryo until it is able to grow leaves and produce food by the process of photosynthesis. <P> Plants are classified by botanists as either monocotyledons or dicotyledons. Monocotyledons, or monocots for short, are plants with just one cotyledon. A cotyledon is a seed leaf, which is the first leaf of a plant to develop and an important part of the seed and embryo. Dicotyledons, or dicots, are plants that have two initial cotyledons. This lesson focuses on dicots. In addition to having two seed leaves, dicots have flower parts in groups of four or five. Examples of Dicotyledon Plants. One classic example of a dicotyledon plant is the magnolia tree. These trees grow in many places in the southern United States. In fact, the magnolia is the state tree of Mississippi. Magnolia trees are classified as dicots because they germinate with two <P> The other group of flowering plants were called monocotyledons or monocots, typically having one cotyledon. Historically, these two groups formed the two divisions of the flowering plants. The traditional dicots are thus a paraphyletic group. The largest clade of the dicotyledons are known as the eudicots. They are distinguished from all other flowering plants by the structure of their pollen.

what is marketable title
<P> A marketable title is a title to a piece of real estate which has no defects which could be discovered by a prudent purchaser. It is deemed more or less “perfect” and there are no reasons why the title cannot be transferred. The marketable title is the gold standard in title quality. <P> Both buyers and sellers usually want a marketable title in a real estate transaction. From the point of view of both, when a title is marketable it means that there should be no problems with the legal transfer of title which would hinder the deal. <P> A marketable title is one that contains no defects that would inhibit the transfer or sale of the property. PhotoObjects.net/PhotoObjects.net/Getty Images. When you purchase a home or other piece of real property, the title – or ownership rights – to that property are transferred to you from the seller. <P> Marketable Title: Is a implied warranty in the land sale contract that says the the title to property is not subject to a claim or defect that would present a substantial probability of litigation and buyer is receiving property free from reasonable doubt. Seller is also promising there is no encumbrances on property. <P> Marketable title (real estate) is a title that a court of equity considers to be so free from defect that it will legally force its acceptance by a buyer. <P> Title that is free from reasonable doubt or any sort of threat of litigation. An implied promise in a contract when a seller is selling land to a buyer is that the seller will deliver marketable title to the buyer at the date of the closing. <P> Marketable Title Law & Legal Definition. Marketable title refers to holding ownership of property reasonably free of defects and liens that would subject it to a lawsuit. It is a good and clear title, without adverse claims against it that would cloud the title.

where do fir trees grow
<P> Despite this, nearly 50% of all Christmas trees grown in Oregon are Noble fir. Grand fir (Abies grandis) is the third most common Christmas species in Oregon, accounting for about 10% of the annual production. This tree is a true fir, like noble fir, but it is cultured or shaped like Douglas-fir. Douglas-fir (Psuedotsuga menziesii), Oregon's state tree, has historically been the primary tree species grown for Christmas trees in the Pacific Northwest. About one-half of all trees produced annually are Douglas-fir. This tree takes 5 to 7 years to bring it to market. <P> No newly planted tree grows fast enough to please a gardener, but the Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) is no slow Joe. A mature Douglas fir is one of the tallest and most majestic trees on the planet, a true giant that shoots up to scrape the sky in a natural setting. The mighty Douglas fir is native to the Pacific Northwest, growing in coastal forests from British Columbia to northern California. Its trunk is tall and ramrod straight, and the tree presents a slender, columnar or pyramidal shape. <P> Description: Douglas-fir trees, which are also called red firs, Oregon pines, and Douglas spruce, are neither true fir trees nor pines nor spruces! The scientific genus name Pseudotsuga means “false hemlock,” alluding to another kind of tree that Douglas-firs are similar too. <P> 1 Leaves: Fir trees have needles instead of traditional leaves. 2 The smooth, flexible needles are short, flat and stick up like toothbrush bristles and remain green year-round. 3 Branches: The branches grow in whorls around the tree's trunk to form a pyramid-like shape. 4 The Fir's cones hang from the branches. <P> Three Methods: Planting a Pine Trees Seedling Caring for a Pine Tree Seedling Growing Pine Trees from Seeds. Pine trees are evergreen trees that come in many varieties. Young pines need special attention, and need to be guarded rigorously against animals and sun damage during their first few years. <P> By Nikki Phipps (Author of The Bulb-o-licious Garden). Growing pine and fir trees from seed can be a challenge to say the least. However, with a little (actually a lot) of patience and determination, it is possible to find success when growing pine and fir trees. Let’s take a look at how to grow a pine tree from seed. <P> Nordmann fir, noble fir, Fraser fir and balsam fir are popular Christmas trees, generally considered to be the best for this purpose, with aromatic foliage that does not shed many needles on drying out. Fir Tree redirects here. For the County Durham town, see Fir Tree, County Durham. Firs (Abies) are a genus of 48–56 species of evergreen coniferous trees in the family Pinaceae. They are found through much of North and Central America, Europe, Asia, and North Africa, occurring in mountains over most of the range. Firs are most closely related to the genus Cedrus (cedar) <P> Noble fir (Abies procera) is Oregon's premier Christmas tree. It commands a higher price than any species, up to twice the value of Douglas-fir. Noble fir is a slower growing tree (6 to 10 years) and much more genetically variable. Douglas-fir (Psuedotsuga menziesii), Oregon's state tree, has historically been the primary tree species grown for Christmas trees in the Pacific Northwest. About one-half of all trees produced annually are Douglas-fir. This tree takes 5 to 7 years to bring it to market. <P> Overview. Fraser fir trees grow to a height of 30 to 50 feet and spread 15 to 25 feet. Their nearly perfect pyramidal shape makes them ideal lawn specimens. Fraser fir trees are native to the Appalachian Mountains. Water Fraser fir trees regularly during the growing season. Stop watering after the first part of September but allow the trees to receive any natural rainfall. Give them a good watering before the first hard frost and again just after the second hard frost.

what is brain surgery
<P> Brain surgery is an operation to treat problems in the brain and surrounding structures. Before surgery, the hair on part of the scalp is shaved and the area is cleaned. The doctor makes a surgical cut through the scalp. The location of this cut depends on where the problem in the brain is located. The surgeon creates a hole in the skull and removes a bone flap. <P> Brain Surgery – Brain Tumor And Neurosurgery Resources. The purpose of this website is to provide clear, understandable, non-technical information about the medical conditions that usually require brain surgery, as well as information about the techniques and skills needed for successful surgery on the brain. <P> any surgery involving the brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves. Brain surgery is performed to treat a wound, vascular disorders, or epilepsy; remove a tumor or foreign body; relieve pressure in intracranial hemorrhage or hydrocephaly; excise an abscess; treat parkinsonism; or relieve pain. <P> During open brain surgery, your surgeon may opt to remove tumors, clip off an aneurysm, drain blood or fluid from an infection, or remove abnormal brain tissue. When the procedure is complete, the bone flap is usually secured in place with plates, sutures, or wires. <P> Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a surgical procedure used to treat several disabling neurological symptoms—most commonly the debilitating motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (PD), such as tremor, rigidity, stiffness, slowed movement, and walking problems. <P> The term “brain surgery” refers to various medical procedures that involve repairing structural problems with the brain. There are numerous types of brain surgery. The type used is based on the area of the brain and condition being treated. Advances in medical technology let surgeons operate on portions of the brain without a single incision near the head. Brain surgery is a critical and complicated process. The type of brain surgery done depends highly on the condition being treated. For example, a brain aneurysm is typically repaired using an endoscope, but if it has ruptured, a craniotomy may be used.

average temperature of uranus
<P> Uranus orbits the sun every 84 years at an average distance of 1.8 billion miles (2.9 billion km) and spins on its own axis every 17 hours compared to 24 hours on Earth. Uranus has the coldest atmospheric temperature of any planet in the solar system, around -224C (-371F). Temperatures in its interior are lower than those found in the other outer planets, possibly less than 4500C (8132F) . <P> 1 Uranus is the seventh planet from the sun and the third largest in the solar system. 2 Its diameter is 31,763 miles (51,118 km) which is four times larger than Earth. 3 The planet is categorized as an ice giant due to the high levels of icy elements in its composition. Uranus has the coldest atmospheric temperature of any planet in the solar system, around -224C (-371F). Temperatures in its interior are lower than those found in the other outer planets, possibly less than 4500C (8132F) . <P> Uranus hits the coldest temperatures of any planet: With minimum atmospheric temperature of -224°C Uranus is nearly coldest planet in the solar system. While Neptune doesn’t get as cold as Uranus it is on average colder. Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun. It’s not visible to the naked eye, and became the first planet discovered with the use of a telescope. Uranus is tipped over on its side with an axial tilt of 98 degrees. <P> Uranus Temperature. Taken in 1986 by Voyager 2 (notice Uranus's continuous darkness in coldness). The effective temperature of Uranus is -216°C or -357°F. At 1 bar of pressure in the planet the temperature is -197°C or -322.6°F and at .1 bar of pressure in the planet the temperature is -220°C or -364°F. Although Uranus is not the furthest planet from the Sun it is definitely the coldest planet in our solar system. It also has the least warm core at 4,727°C or 8,540.6°F than any of the other gas planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune) <P> Weather.gov Sioux Falls, SD. Uranus is the third gas giant planet of four in proximity to the Sun. Overall, Uranus is the seventh planet in our solar system, residing at an average distance of 1.8 billion miles from the Sun (twice as far as Saturn). Its rotation is quick, at about 18 hours, enough to flatten the planet at its poles (a characteristic of all gas giants). The coldest temperature found in Uranus' lower atmosphere so far is -371 degrees F., which rivals Neptune's frigid temperatures. Findings from Hubble reveal that clouds circle Uranus at over 300 mph. <P> The seventh planet from the sun, Uranus has the coldest atmosphere of any of the planets in the solar system, even though it is not the most distant. Despite the fact that its equator faces away from the sun, the temperature distribution on Uranus is much like other planets, with a warmer equator and cooler poles. But weather on Uranus functions much as it does on other gas giants. Like Jupiter and Saturn, the planet has bands of zones and belts that orbit parallel to the equator, which is warmer than the poles. The warm temperatures that drive the planet's weather come from the interior of the planet, rather than from the sun. <P> It has been recently found that wind speeds on Uranus range from 90 to 360 mph and the planet's average temperature is a frigid -353 degrees F. The coldest temperature found in Uranus' lower atmosphere so far is -371 degrees F., which rivals Neptune's frigid temperatures. Findings from Hubble reveal that clouds circle Uranus at over 300 mph. <P> The average temperature on Uranus is about 60 Kelvin (- 350 degrees Fahrenheit). The minimum near the tropopause is 52 K (-366 F) at the 0.1-bar pressure level. <P> The atmosphere of Uranus is composed of 83% helium, 15% methane and 2% methane plus trace amounts of other gases such as ethane. The average temperature of the surface of Uranus is 49° Kelvin or -224° Celsius. What makes the planet so cold is that it has a low internal temperature. Uranus is 14.5 times bigger than Earth, making it the third largest planet in the Solar System after Jupiter and Saturn; Uranus’s core alone is as large as our planet. <P> How’s the temperature on Uranus? Cold. In fact, the temperature of Uranus makes it the coldest planet in the Solar System. The average temperature of the cloud tops on Uranus is 49 K (?224 °C).

what is the disease measles
<P> Measles is a disease caused by a virus that is spread through the air by breathing, coughing, or sneezing. Measles virus is highly contagious and can remain so for up to 2 hours in the air or on surfaces. Symptoms of measles are rash, high fever, cough, runny nose, and red, watery eyes. Some people who become sick with measles also get an ear infection, diarrhea, or a serious lung infection, such as pneumonia. <P> Measles is caused by the measles virus (a paramyxovirus). The measles virus is highly contagious. Measles is spread through droplet transmission from the nose, throat, and mouth of someone who is infected with the virus. These droplets are sprayed out when the infected person coughs or sneezes. Among unimmunized people exposed to the virus, over 90% will contract the disease <P> Measles. Measles is a childhood infection caused by a virus. Once quite common, measles can now almost always be prevented with a vaccine. Signs and symptoms of measles include cough, runny nose, inflamed eyes, sore throat, fever and a red, blotchy skin rash. <P> Measles is caused by a virus. It is spread when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or shares food or drinks. The measles virus can travel through the air. This means that you can get measles if you are near someone who has the virus even if that person doesn't cough or sneeze directly on you. Measles is a very contagious (easily spread) infection that causes a rash all over your body. It is also called rubeola or red measles. The measles vaccine protects against the illness. This vaccine is part of the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) and MMRV (measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella [chickenpox]) vaccines. <P> Measles, also known as morbilli, rubeola, or red measles, is a highly contagious infection caused by the measles virus. Initial signs and symptoms typically include fever, often greater than 40 °C (104.0 °F), cough, runny nose, and red eyes. The measles vaccine is effective at preventing the disease. Vaccination has resulted in a 75% decrease in deaths from measles between 2000 and 2013 with about 85% of children globally being currently vaccinated. No specific treatment is available. <P> Rubella, also known as German measles or three-day measles, is an infection caused by the rubella virus.

By comparison, former McDonald's CEO James Skinner raked in $9,247 for an hour of his precious time last year, according to NerdWallet. That means the average McDonald's employee would have to work for 3.86 months straight at an overtime wage -- or 1.5 times her regular hourly pay -- to match what Skinner made in an hou <P> Well, many McDonald’s restaurants are owned and managed by independent franchises. This means salaries can vary according to location. However, a crew trainer is a responsible role, right below the management team, and because of this you will earn more than a regular crew member. There are perks on top of the basic wage as well. <P> A McDonald's employee working overtime for nearly four months straight would make as much as the company's former CEO earned in just 60 minutes, according to an analysis published Tuesday.

The Privacy Act requires that agencies give the public notice of their systems of records by publication in the Federal Register. Following the controversial Passenger Name Record agreement signed with the European Union (EU) in 2007, the Bush administration provided an exemption for the Department of Homeland Security and the Arrival and Departure Information System (ADIS) from the U.S. Privacy Act. <P> There are, however, several exceptions to the Privacy Act. For one thing, government agencies that are engaged in law enforcement can excuse themselves from the Act's rules. Agencies have also circumvented information sharing rules by exploiting a routine use exemption.

principle definition what does the t mean in sport
<P> Usage. The words principle and principal are pronounced in the same way but they do not have the same meaning. Principle is normally used as a noun meaning ‘a fundamental basis of a system of thought or belief’, as in this is one of the basic principles of democracy. Principal, on the other hand, is normally an adjective meaning ‘main or most important’, as in one of the country’s principal cities. Principal can also be a noun, where it is used to refer to the most senior or most important person in an organization or other group: the deputy principal. <P> The key principles when planning a programme are: 1 Specificity – training must be matched to the needs of the sporting activity to improve fitness in the body parts the sport uses. 2 Overload-fitness can only be improved by training more than you normally do. The best training programmes are built on principles of specificity, overload, progression and reversibility. You can also use the FITT acronym to help remember the key things to consider when tailoring programmes for individual sporting goals. It stands for; Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type. <P> Training should be matched to an individual's needs. By using the principles of training as a framework we can plan a personal training programme that uses scientific principles to improve performance, skill, game ability and physical fitness. The best training programmes are built on principles of specificity, overload, progression and reversibility. You can also use the FITT acronym to help remember the key things to consider when tailoring programmes for individual sporting goals. It stands for; Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type. <P> The Reversibility Principle in Sports Training. The length of the detraining period and the training status of the athlete dictate how much performance is lost. Detraining occurs within a relatively short time period after an athlete ceases to train. In short, If you don't use it, you lose it. (1) While rest periods are necessary for recovery, extended rest intervals reduce physical fitness. The physiological effects of fitness training diminish over time, causing the body to revert back to its pretraining condition. <P> Using the FITT principle, the best type of exercise to tax or improve the cardiovascular system should be continuous in nature and make use of large muscle groups. Examples include running, walking, swimming, dancing, cycling, aerobics classes, circuit training, cycling etc. Again, intensity has a say and particularly grueling strength sessions may last as little as 20 - 30 minutes. Perhaps the most important principle of training (that ironically doesn't have it's own letter in the FITT principle) is rest. <P> In planning a programme, use the FITT principles to add the detail: 1 Frequency-decide how often to train. 2 Intensity-choose how hard to train. 3 Time-decide for how long [how long: If you are studying the AQA specification this is known as 'duration'. 4 Type-decide which methods of training to use. The best training programmes are built on principles of specificity, overload, progression and reversibility. You can also use the FITT acronym to help remember the key things to consider when tailoring programmes for individual sporting goals. It stands for; Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type. <P> Think of The FITT principle as a set of rules that must be adhered to in order to benefit from any form of fitness training program. These rules relate to the Frequency, Intensity, Type and Time (FITT) of exercise... Again, intensity has a say and particularly grueling strength sessions may last as little as 20 - 30 minutes. Perhaps the most important principle of training (that ironically doesn't have it's own letter in the FITT principle) is rest. <P> The Reversibility Principle dictates that athletes lose the beneficial effects of training when they stop working out. Conversely, it also means that detraining effects can be reversed when athletes resume training. In short, If you don't use it, you lose it. (1) While rest periods are necessary for recovery, extended rest intervals reduce physical fitness. The physiological effects of fitness training diminish over time, causing the body to revert back to its pretraining condition. <P> Getting the best out of your training requires a little planning. The best training programmes are built on principles of specificity, overload, progression and reversibility. You can also use the FITT acronym to help remember the key things to consider when tailoring programmes for individual sporting goals. It stands for; Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type. <P> The Overload Principle is a basic sports fitness training concept. It means that in order to improve, athletes must continually work harder as they their bodies adjust to existing workouts. Overloading also plays a role in skill learning.

what was mao zedong address
<P> The Early Years. Mao Zedong (1893-1976) was both a product and a part of the revolutionary change in 20th-century China. He was born December 26, 1893, in the small village of Shaoshan in Hunan province. <P> During the early 1960s, Mao became concerned with the nature of post-1959 China. He saw that the revolution and Great Leap Forward had replaced the old elite with a new one. He was concerned that those in power were becoming estranged from the people they were supposed to serve. From the next generation, Zemin's son, Mao Yuanxin, was raised by Mao Zedong's family. He became Mao Zedong's liaison with the Politburo in 1975. In Li Zhisui's The Private Life of Chairman Mao, Mao Yuanxin played a role in the final power-struggles. <P> Mao Zedong, 1957 © Mao was a Chinese communist leader and founder of the People's Republic of China. He was responsible for the disastrous policies of the 'Great Leap Forward' and the 'Cultural Revolution'. Mao was born on 26 December 1893 into a peasant family in Shaoshan, in Hunan province, central China. After training as a teacher, he travelled to Beijing where he worked in the University Library. <P> “In his address, Hu recalled Mao’s achievements, and summarized the outstanding contributions made to the revolution and the development of China by the Chinese communists with Mao as their top representative, who have developed Mao Zedong Thought, namely, Marxism with Chinese characteristics. It’s the most wonderful day of the year…if you’re a fan of British holidays with obscure and poorly understood origins or an unreconstructed Chinese Leftist. December 26 is the birthday of Mao Zedong, the portly gentleman from Hunan who, for 70% better and 30% ill, led China from 1949 until his death in 1976. <P> After Mao Zedong won the Chinese civil war in 1949, his goal became the unification of the five nationalities under the big family, the People's Republic of China, and under a single political system, the Communist Party of China. From the next generation, Zemin's son, Mao Yuanxin, was raised by Mao Zedong's family. He became Mao Zedong's liaison with the Politburo in 1975. In Li Zhisui's The Private Life of Chairman Mao, Mao Yuanxin played a role in the final power-struggles. <P> When this photograph of Mao addressing his followers was taken in 1944, he was the leader of the Chinese Communist Party. Mao had organized and trained a peasant army to resist the Japanese occupation of China during World War II. Background. Mao Zedong was born in China's Hunan province in 1893. At that time, the Chinese people were unhappy with the Qin dynasty. They felt that foreign nations had too much control over China's resources. Mao later said that it seemed to be a time when “the dismemberment of China” would happen quickly <P> In late autumn 1958, Mao Zedong strongly condemned widespread practices of the Great Leap Forward (GLF) such as subjecting peasants to exhausting labour without adequate food and rest, which had resulted in epidemics, starvation and deaths. From the next generation, Zemin's son, Mao Yuanxin, was raised by Mao Zedong's family. He became Mao Zedong's liaison with the Politburo in 1975. In Li Zhisui's The Private Life of Chairman Mao, Mao Yuanxin played a role in the final power-struggles. <P> Mao's Early Life: On December 26, 1893, a son was born to the Mao family, wealthy farmers in Shaoshan, Hunan Province, China. They named the boy Mao Zedong. The child studied Confucian classics at the village school for five years, but left at the age of 13 to help out full-time on the farm. Shortly after Mao took power in China, he sent the People's Volunteer Army in to the Korean War to fight alongside the North Koreans against the South Koreans and United Nations forces. <P> or. (mou dzŭ-do͝ong) , 1893–1976, founder of the People's Republic of China. Mao was one of the most prominent Communist theoreticians and his ideas on revolutionary struggle and guerrilla warfare have been extremely influential, especially among Third World revolutionaries.
Hu recalled Mao’s achievements, and summarized the outstanding contributions made to the revolution and the development of China by the Chinese communists with Mao as their top representative.

how is the nerve cord of a crayfish differ from humans
<P> Near the eyes you may be able to see the brain, a large swelling of the forward nerve cord. The antennal glands, sometimes called green glands, are also in the head-they extract wastes from the blood, and form urine, which is stored in bladders and expelled from excretory pores in the face. <P> The dorsal nerve cord is later modified in vertebrates into the central nervous system which is composed of the brain and spinal cord. Dorsal nerve cord is mainly found in subphylum Vertebrata. Dorsal means the back side, as opposed to Ventral which is the front side of an organism. In organisms with Bipedalism dorsal is the back and ventral is the front. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (June 2013). The dorsal nerve cord is one of the embryonic features unique to chordates, along with a notochord, a post-anal tail, an endostyle, and pharyngeal slits. The dorsal nerve cord is a hollow cord dorsal to the notochord. <P> Flexor muscle: muscle that bends the tail of the crayfish. Digestive gland: glandular organ that produces digestive enzymes. Ganglion of ventral nerve cord: budge related to a collection of nerves of the abdomen of a crayfish. Ventral nerve cord: collection of nerves in the abdomen of a crayfish. Maxilliped: pair of appendages of a crayfish used for holding prey. Esophagus: part of the digestive tract between the mouth and the stomach. Mandible: lower jaw. Mouth: entrance to the digestive tract. Internal anatomy of a crayfish: edible freshwater crustacean, with pincers on the two forelegs. Encephalon: site of the mental functions of a crayfish. Stomach: part of the digestive tract between the esophagus and the intestine. <P> In vertebrates, it also includes a spinal cord. The primary cell type found in the nervous system is the neuron, which has a cell body, containing the nucleus, and long extensions to carry information from one part of the body to another. All vertebrates have a distinct central component that consists of a brain and spinal cord, as well as peripheral structures such as ganglia and nerves. The primary difference from invertebrates is in the number of neurons and the size of nervous system structures. <P> An earthworm also has the same type nervous system as a human, just like a pig. As for the circulatory system, a human’s pumps blood to and from the body and lungs with the help of the heart, blood vessels, and arteries. A pig, however, has a heart, blood, blood vessels, lungs, and a circulatory mechanism. Body Systems of Various Organisms. All organisms in the world have a range of systems and organs in their body. Some organisms may share similar body systems while others have absolutely nothing in common. Several of those organisms include humans, pigs, crayfish, and earthworms. <P> Compared to a human, pigs have the same type of nervous system with the same parts and the same functions. As for a crayfish’s nervous system, it is composed of a ventral nerve cord fused with segmental ganglia, sup esophageal, and sub esophageal ganglia. Body Systems of Various Organisms.

This subphylum ranges in size from microscopic copepods to the king crab-with a leg span of over 12 feet. Crayfish and close relatives like lobsters are sometimes called decapods - meaning that they have ten feet, or five pairs of legs. Crayfish actually have four pairs of walking legs. The other pair of legs are the chelipeds-commonly refered to as pinchers. The body of the crayfish is covered by a two-part exoskeleton made of chitin. Chitin contains a high percentage of calcium, similar to your fingernails. 1 Cephalothorax-the head (5 segments) and thorax (8 segments). 2 Abdomen-composed of 7 segments.

what is wave soldering
<P> These 10 animal facts will amaze you. Wave soldering is an automated process in which components are soldered onto a printed wiring board (PWB) as the board passes over the top of a wave of solder. Air pumped up from the bottom of a container of melted solder creates this wave. The solder connections formed by the wave soldering process not only attach the components to the board, but also form electrical connections between them. This is what allows the final product to function electronically. Soldering defects are not only a cosmetic concern <P> Wave soldering is a process by which large printed circuit boards can be soldered quickly and reliably during PCB assembly. The wave soldering process gains its name from the fact that the process passes the printed circuit boards to be soldered over a wave of solder. In this way a complete board can be soldered in a matter of seconds producing joints that are reliably, both mechanically and electrically. Wave soldering can be used in PCB assembly for both conventional through hole mounted components as well as surface mount components. However other methods such as infra-red reflow soldering are more applicable to the fine features being used today on printed circuit boards for surface mount components. <P> Indium Corporation offers a variety of state-of-the-art and traditional wave soldering products that meet IPC J-STD, Department of Defense, and telecom specifications, as well as customer-specific commercial specifications for wave and selective soldering operations. Wave soldering flux is the heart of the wave soldering operation. There are many types of soldering fluxes. Picking the correct flux chemistry depends on a number of factors, including: 1 The solderability level of the parts to be assembled. 2 The type of finish or coating used on the assembly. 3 The flux application method. <P> The basic equipment used during the process is a conveyor that moves the PCB through the different zones, a pan of solder used in the soldering process, a pump that produces the actual wave, the sprayer for the flux and the preheating pad. The solder is usually a mixture of metals. Flux in the wave soldering process has a primary and a secondary objective. The primary objective is to clean the components that are to be soldered, principally any oxide layers that may have formed. There are two types of flux, corrosive and noncorrosive. <P> PC Board Assembly-Wave Soldering capabilities of Electro Soft, Incorporated. This video shows the process of a PC Board running through a wave soldering machine. For more information on Electro Soft, Incorporated and their PC Board Assembly services, please visit us at: http://electrosoftinc.com/esi/printed... <P> 1 In view of the way that wave soldering works, where the solder wave is caused by the solder flowing out of the reservoir tank, and the board passes over it, the spacing requirements are dependent upon the direction of the board relative to the solder flow. Wave soldering can be used in PCB assembly for both conventional through hole mounted components as well as surface mount components. However other methods such as infra-red reflow soldering are more applicable to the fine features being used today on printed circuit boards for surface mount components. <P> Wave soldering is used for both through-hole printed circuit assemblies, and surface mount. In the latter case, the components are glued onto the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB) by placement equipment, before being run through the molten solder wave.

what is the difference between refraction and diffraction
<P> Report Abuse. DIFFRACTION-diffraction is bending of light at the corner of an obstacle. eg: DIFFRACTION OF LIGHT REFRACTION-Refraction is the bending of a wave when it enters a medium where it's speed is different. Refraction-is the change in direction of waves which occurs when waves travel from one medium to another Diffraction-is the bending of waves around obstacles and opening. <P> Reflection is the rebounding of light from the surface of an object. Refraction is the passing of light through a medium (may be liquid or a transparent solid) with some change in the velocity of light during the process. Reflection: When light beam is in contact with a reflective polished surface than it traces its path according to laws of reflection. Diffraction: Its a phenomenon by which light bends around the corner of small obstacles and it spreads out. (You can imagine this obstacle as a very sharp corner of a lab plane mirror). <P> 1.7k Views. DIFFRACTION: The phenomenon of bending of light around the corners of an obstacle or aperture into region of geometrical shadow. The diffraction of light more pronounced when the dimension of the obstacle or aperture is comparable to the wavelength of the wave. Reflection: When light beam is in contact with a reflective polished surface than it traces its path according to laws of reflection. Diffraction: Its a phenomenon by which light bends around the corner of small obstacles and it spreads out. (You can imagine this obstacle as a very sharp corner of a lab plane mirror). <P> Both diffraction and refraction involve change of direction of waves. When a wave encounters an obstacle, bending or spreading occurs, which we call diffraction. On the other hand, waves refract when they travel from one medium to another. Intensity of the fringes decreases as we move along either side of the central maxima. Refraction. When a wave passes from one medium to another at any angle except 90° and 0°, its line of travel changes at the interface due to the change in velocity of the wave. This is what we call refraction. Although light waves provide most of the examples for refraction, any other wave can also refract <P> Answer by Physics-nerd. Confidence votes 414. in reflection occurs when a wave bounces off a reflective surface, refraction is when a wave enters a new median, changing its speed, direction, and wavelength, and diffraction is when a wave bends due to a boundary. <P> Diffraction is the bending of waves around an obstacle, while interference is the meeting of two waves. For instance, diffraction is what results from a pinhole blocking a wav … e source, the wave spreads out from that one point. <P> Difference Between Diffraction and Refraction. • Diffraction is bending or spreading of waves around an obstacle, while refraction is bending of waves due to change of speed. • Both diffraction and refraction are wavelength dependant. Hence, both can split white light in to its component wavelengths. Intensity of the fringes decreases as we move along either side of the central maxima. Refraction. When a wave passes from one medium to another at any angle except 90° and 0°, its line of travel changes at the interface due to the change in velocity of the wave. This is what we call refraction.

A Physic's definition of refraction involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another. <P> Best Answer: Refraction is the change in direction of waves which occurs when waves travel from one medium to another. Refraction is always accompanied by a wavelength and speed change. Diffraction is the bending of waves around obstacles and openings. The amount of diffraction increases with increasing wavelength. Refraction-is the change in direction of waves which occurs when waves travel from one medium to another Diffraction-is the bending of waves around obstacles and opening.
Diffraction is bending or spreading of waves around an obstacle, while refraction is bending of waves due to change of speed.
what is histones
<P> Types of histones. Each octamer has two pairs of different histone proteins: H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. They are arranged as a pair of H2A-H2B dimers, and an (H3)2(H4)2 tetramer. There is an additional type of histone, the linker histone H1, which is present in condensed DNA. Histone packaging of DNA is a ubiquitous mechanism throughout species, and the structures of histones are highly conserved. They contain high amounts of two positively charged amino acids: lysine and arginine. Of course, there are some differences between the types of histone proteins: 1 H2A and H2B contain more lysine; <P> There are four types of histones found in chromatin: H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. Two of each histone comprise a protein core, a nucleosome, which DNA wraps around twice. What results is a bead on a string model in which the nucleosomes are the beads and the linker DNA binds them together. Another characteristic of histones are the protein tails that extend outward from the bead.. The tails and the degree of their acetylation is an important factor in gene expression. <P> Histones are alkaline (basic pH) proteins. They are found inside the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. Their purpose is to package DNA into structural units called nucleosomes. They are the main proteins in chromatin (a combination of DNA and protein), which makes up the contents of a cell nucleus. The core histones form the center of the nucleosome, hence the term 'core'. The linker histones are found at the entrance and exit sites of the nucleosome and lock the DNA in place, hence the term 'linker'. <P> Histones are one of the specific proteins involved in cell division and cancer. Technically, the ball-like groups of histones are referred to as nucleosomes, but--for simplicity--the website will continue to refer to these groups as histones. <P> H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 are the core histones, and H1 and H5 are the linker histones. The core histones form the center of the nucleosome, hence the term 'core'. The linker histones are found at the entrance and exit sites of the nucleosome and lock the DNA in place, hence the term 'linker'. <P> Histone methylation is a process by which methyl groups are transferred to amino acids of histone proteins that make up nucleosomes, which the DNA double helix wraps around to form chromosomes. The fundamental unit of chromatin, called a nucleosome, contains DNA wound around a protein octamer. This octamer consists of two copies each of four histone proteins: H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. Each one of these proteins has a tail extension, and these tails are the targets of nucleosome modification by methylation. <P> histone / histones. Under the microscope in its extended form, chromatin looks like beads on a string. The beads are called nucleosomes. Each nucleosome is made of DNA wrapped around eight histone proteins that function like a spool and are called a histone octamer. <P> Histones are basic proteins, and their positive charges allow them to associate with DNA, which is negatively charged. Some histones function as spools for the thread-like DNA to wrap around. Under the microscope in its extended form, chromatin looks like beads on a string. The beads are called nucleosomes. Each nucleosome is made of DNA wrapped around eight histone proteins that function like a spool and are called a histone octamer. <P> Best Answer: Histones are the proteins closely associated with DNA molecules. They are responsible for the structure of chromatin and play important roles in the regulation of gene expression. Five types of histones have been identified: H1 (or H5), H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. H1 and its homologous protein H5 are involved in higher-order structures of chromatin. The other four types of histones associate with DNA to form nucleosomes. H1 (or H5) has about 220 residues. Other types of histones are smaller, each consisting of 100-150 residues. Each nucleosome consists of 146 bp DNA and 8 histones: two copies for each of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 <P> Histones are a family of basic proteins that associate with DNA in the nucleus and help condense it into chromatin. Nuclear DNA does not appear in free linear strands; it is highly condensed and wrapped around histones in order to fit inside of the nucleus and take part in the formation of chromosomes. Under the microscope in its extended form, chromatin looks like beads on a string. The beads are called nucleosomes. Each nucleosome is made of DNA wrapped around eight histone proteins that function like a spool and are called a histone octamer.

how tall do you have to be to become a model
<P> You are about 5 inches too short to be a runway model but you can be a bikini model: Bikini models are usually curvaceous and fit. For women, usually the models can be shorter, around 5 ft 5 in-5 ft 8 in (1.65 m-1.73 m) and need to be in the range of 90–110 lb (41–50 kg). Apparently 5'4'' is pretty average so models that are like 5'9 + would be pretty scary lol But I reallllly want to be a model!!

To be an editorial or fashion model, women will need to be between 5-foot-8 and 6 feet tall, while male models will need to be between 6 feet and 6-foot-2. <P> Though today the models are as tall as 5'9 and 6'0. But you have to be really thin and pretty. If you are all that then sure you can be a runway model. im 14 and want to become a runway model and i am 5'7 /170cm tall i want to know how tall i need to be so i can fufill my dreams and do you think i will grow taller?? <P> When you see the incredibly tall and lean figures that grace the runways and editorials for the leading fashion houses and designers, these are the High Fashion models. They are generally required to be between 172cm to 180cm (5”8 to 5”11), with a dress size of 4-6 US (6-8 UK), with a typical bust size of 34. The age range can be from 14 to 25.

They need to be between 180cm to 188cm (5”11 to 6”2), with an excellent physique and a chest size of 94cm to 106cm (37” to 42”) and 76cm to 81cm (30” to 32”) waist. Guys tend to have longer careers if they look after themselves <P> This depends on what kind of modeling you want to do. Fashion/editorial/runway models are required to be between 5'8-6'0 for females and 5'10-6'2 for males. Commercial/pri … nt models should be between 5'5-5'7 for females and 5'9-6'2 for males. If you are trying to do commercial/print, the minimum height is 5'5. For fashion and runway you should ideally already be 5'8 or 5'7 with the hope of growing taller in the … next few years. <P> At age 14, if you want to be a fashion/runway model, agencies will require you to be 5'8 but for younger models they typically will lower the height requirement to 5'6 or 5' … 7 since they know you will have a shot at growing taller as you get older.

what happens when baby is teething
<P> Most babies get their first tooth at around 6 months, but your child's chompers may appear as early as 3 months or as late as 14, depending on such factors as when Mom and Dad started sprouting teeth and whether or not your baby was a preemie (preemies tend to teethe on the late side). <P> 1 Use a clean finger (or cold teething ring) to gently rub your baby's gum for about 2 minutes at a time. 2 Many babies find this soothing, although they may protest at first. Here are some tips to help your baby feel better while teething: 1 Use a clean finger (or cold teething ring) to gently rub your baby's gum for about 2 minutes at a time. 2 Many babies find this soothing, although they may protest at first. 3 Provide safe objects for your baby to chew on, such as teething rings <P> 23. Teething occurs when the teeth emerge through the gums. It can be a frustrating time for many parents, as babies and children can become unsettled when they teethe. There are measures which you can take to improve symptoms of teething in your baby or child. Teething occurs when the 'baby teeth' (or milk teeth) come through the gums. It is a normal part of development. Although the milk teeth develop when the baby is growing in the womb, the teeth only start to grow throughout the gums when the baby is 6-9 months old (although it can be before or after these ages) <P> When a baby begins teething, there is no set pattern on when it will begin, how long it will take and how painful it will be. For one baby cutting a tooth might happen overnight without pain, while another child might have to go through a long, drawn out and painful experience.

how is a caldera different from a crater
<P> Caldera. A large depression made because of volcanic activity is called a caldera. It is the result of a large cavity created underground when a chamber of magma and lava gets emptied. This cavity creates pressure and the over ground rocks collapse to create a large depression. This large depression is called a caldera. Crater. A volcanic crater is a bowl like structure at the top of a volcano around the opening that is used for eruption of magma and lava. This is a depression that is the result of sinking in of the rocks because of high pressure. Mostly it has the opening through which lava and ash flows upwards. <P> A caldera is a cauldron-like volcanic feature on large central volcanoes, a special sort of volcanic crater (from one to several kilometers in diameter), formed when a magma chamber was emptied. The depression then originated either in very big explosive eruptions or in erosion and collapse of the magma chamber roof. <P> Best Answer: A CALDERA is a large depression in a volcano formed either by the collapse of the top of a composite volcano after an explosive eruption, or from the collapse of the top of a shield volcano after the magma chamber is drained. A CRATER is a steep walled depression located at the summit of a volcano. <P> A caldera is a large crater, up to 50 kilometers, that can form when the summit or side of a volcano collapses into the magma chamber during of after an explosion.

While the story maybe be fiction, the real beach where “The Beach” was filmed is real – sort of. To visit “The Beach” (Ko Phi Phi Leh Beach), first you need to get from Bangkok to Phuket (or Krabi). Ko Phi Phi Leh and Maya Beach are both wildly popular with tourists, who are eager to visit the utopian island they saw in the movie (however fictional it was). <P> We have a lot more information on the location where the movie “The Beach” was filmed, but here is some basic information: The movie “The Beach” was filmed in Maya Bay, a small cove surrounded by 300-foot cliffs. Maya Bay is on the island Ko Phi Phi Leh, a picturesque and uninhabited island on Thailand’s west coast. Ko Phi Phi Leh is the smallest of the two Phi Phi islands; many travelers are familiar with Ko Phi Phi Don, which is larger than Leh and offers accommodation. »More about where The Beach was filmed.

what do cell biologists do
<P> Cell biology is the study of cell structure and function, and it revolves around the concept that the cell is the fundamental unit of life. Focusing on the cell permits a detailed understanding of the tissues and organisms that cells compose. <P> Cell biologists research and study the properties, interactions and structure of cellular molecules from which they can extrapolate basic principles or generalizations about the effects of cell behavior on an organism. <P> Cell biologists study the cells of living organisms and analyze their physiological properties, structure, life cycle, and interaction with the environment. They study single-celled organisms such as bacteria and multi-cellular organisms including human beings. <P> Cell biologists study life at the cellular level. They analyze either organisms that can usually only be seen with a microscope or single cells of more complex organisms. They can work for government agencies or for private companies. <P> Cell biology is a branch of biology that focuses on the study of cells and all of their components and properties. Cell biologists are highly educated scientists that focus on the study of cells and living organisms for a variety of purposes. <P> Cells are the fundamental units of all living things. Understanding the relationship between cell structures and their functions -- the main work of a cell biologist -- is necessary for many molecular biology and biomedical fields. <P> Cell biologists also tend to seek similarities between different kinds of cells or between cells belonging to different species. A cell biologist is also typically very interested in proteins; there are many different kinds of proteins within cells, and each has a purpose within the cell. Ad. Many other fields of biology are closely linked with cellular biology; a cell biologist may find his work relating to genetics, chemistry, or other fields.

what cause neck and shoulder pain
<P> Cervical radiculopathy, commonly called a pinched nerve occurs when a nerve in the neck is compressed or irritated where it branches away from the spinal cord. This may cause pain that radiates into the shoulder, as well as muscle weakness and numbness that travels down the arm and into the hand. <P> 1 Degenerative disc disease in the neck (cervical spondylosis) can cause local neck pain or radiating pain from disc herniation, causing pinching of nerves (cervical radiculopathy). 2 Abnormal conditions involving the spinal cord, heart, lungs, and some abdominal organs also can cause neck and shoulder pain. 1 This can also cause muscle spasms in the neck and shoulder areas. 2 Tendonitis: The tendons connect the muscles to the bones. 3 With strain, the tendons can become swollen and cause pain. 4 This is also referred to as tendinitis. 5 Gallbladder disease: This can cause a pain referred to the right shoulder. <P> What causes neck pain? Causes of neck pain include abnormalities in the bone or joints, trauma, poor posture, degenerative diseases, and tumors. Pain in the soft tissues (muscles, tendons, and ligaments) is the most common cause of neck pain and usually occurs as a result of an acute or a chronic muscle strain. The neck is very mobile, which means it is less stable than other areas of the body and more easily injured. <P> By far the most common cause of a stiff neck is a muscle sprain or muscle strain, particularly to the levator scapula muscle. Located at the back and side of the neck, the levator scapula muscle connects the cervical spine (the neck) with the shoulder. A stiff neck may also be accompanied by a headache, neck pain, shoulder pain and/or arm pain, and cause the individual to turn the entire body as opposed to the neck when trying to look sideways or backwards. Stiffness in the neck, or cervical spine, may be accompanied by shoulder pain or headache <P> 1 Pain can lead to a stiff neck or shoulder and loss of range of motion. 2 Headache may result. 3 The character of each symptom is important to your doctor because the particular features can be clues to the cause of your pain. <P> The treatment of soft tissue neck and shoulder pain often includes the use of anti-inflammatory medication such as ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve or Naprosyn). Pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) may also be recommended. Causes of neck pain include: 1 Abnormalities in the bone or joints. 2 Trauma. 3 Poor posture. 4 Degenerative diseases. 5 Tumors. 6 Muscle strain. <P> Neck and Shoulder Pain: Other Causes. Sometimes neck and shoulder pain is a sign of something more serious. While not common, these conditions might include: 1 Spinal cord tumor. 2 When spinal cord tumors arise in the cervical region of the spine, they usually cause neck pain, and may eventually trigger pain in the shoulders, arms, or legs as the tumor grows and compresses different nerves. 1 Bone spurs. 2 In advanced cases of disk degeneration, bone spurs may form. 3 Bone spurs are tiny growths on the bones in your spine that can irritate the spinal nerves, resulting in pressure and irritation and causing pain in your neck, shoulders, and arms. 4 Arthritis of the neck. <P> 1 X-rays can be helpful in diagnosing neck and shoulder pain. 2 Plain X-rays can reveal disc space narrowing, rheumatologic disease, destructive lesions, slippage, stenosis, fractures, and instability with flexion-extension views. Pain in the soft tissues (muscles, tendons, and ligaments) is the most common cause of neck pain and usually occurs as a result of an acute or a chronic muscle strain. The neck is very mobile, which means it is less stable than other areas of the body and more easily injured. <P> Certain medical problems can cause neck pain. These include: 1 Problems related to aging, such as: 2 Narrowing of the spinal canal (cervical spinal stenosis). 3 Arthritis of the neck (cervical spondylosis). 4 Illnesses such as: 5 Meningitis, which causes inflammation around the tissues of the brain and spinal cord. Activities that cause neck pain. Most neck pain is caused by activities that involve repeated or prolonged movements of the neck. This can result in a strain (an overstretched or overused muscle), a sprain (injury to a ligament), or a spasm of the neck muscles. These activities include:
Neck pain include abnormalities in the bone or joints, trauma, poor posture, degenerative diseases, tumors and Abnormal conditions involving the spinal cord, heart, lungs, and some abdominal organs also can cause shoulder pain.
what was the equal rights amendment
<P> Equal Rights Amendment. The Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution was first proposed in the United States Congress in December 1923. It was promoted by Alice Paul and National Women's party, but opposed by many of their colleagues who had worked to pass the Nineteenth Amendment (women's suffrage) in 1920. <P> Section 1. Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex. Section 2. The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article. <P> The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was the most highly publicized and debated constitutional amendment before the United States for most of the 1970s and early 1980s. First submitted by Congress to the states for ratification on March 22, 1972, it failed to be ratified by its final deadline of June 30, 1982. <P> The text of the Equal Rights Amendment is: Section 1. Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex. Section 2. The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article. Section 3. <P> The Equal Rights Amendment is not yet in the U.S. Constitution. The ERA, affirming the equal application of the Constitution to all persons regardless of their sex, was written in 1923 by Alice Paul, suffragist leader and founder of the National Woman's Party. <P> The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was a proposed amendment to the United States Constitution designed to guarantee equal rights for women. The ERA was originally written by Alice Paul and Crystal Eastman. In 1923, it was introduced in the Congress for the first time. <P> The Equal Rights Amendment states: Section 1. Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex. Section 2. <P> The proposed addition would have read, Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex..

where are the thyroid and cricoid cartilage located
<P> The cricoid cartilage /ˌkraɪkɔɪd ˈkɑːrtɪlɪdʒ/ , or simply cricoid (from the Greek krikoeides meaning ring-shaped), is the only complete ring of cartilage around the trachea. Inferior to it are the rings of cartilage around the trachea (which are not continuous-rather they are C-shaped with a gap posteriorly). The cricoid is joined to the first tracheal ring by the cricotracheal ligament, and this can be felt as a more yielding area between the firm thyroid cartilage and firmer cricoid. <P> The cricoid cartilage sits just inferior to the thyroid cartilage in the neck, at the level of the C6 vertebra, and is joined to it medially by the median cricothyroid ligament and postero-laterally by the cricothyroid joints. Inferior to it are the rings of cartilage around the trachea (which are not continuous-rather they are C-shaped with a gap posteriorly). The cricoid is joined to the first tracheal ring by the cricotracheal ligament, and this can be felt as a more yielding area between the firm thyroid cartilage and firmer cricoid. <P> Cricoid cartilage is attached to the thyroid cartilage in the presence of cricothyroid ligament. There is also a cricotracheal ligament that attaches the cricoid cartilage to the first ring of the trachea [ 3 ]. The other five are the following: 1 Epiglottis: This is attached to the thyroid gland. 2 It is made up of fibrocartilage with a shape like that of a spoon. 3 Epiglottis and cricoid cartilage are the laryngeal cartilages that are not paired. <P> The inferior border of the thyroid cartilage is attached to the cricoid cartilage by the cricothyroid membrane in the midline and the cricothyroid muscles on either side. The superior horn along with the entire superior edge of the thyroid cartilage is attached to the hyoid bone by the thyrohyoid membrane. They are pyramidal in shape and have 3 surfaces, a base, and an apex. They are located superior to the cricoid cartilage in the posterior part of the larynx, with the base of the arytenoid cartilages articulating on either side with the posterior aspect of the upper border of the cricoid lamina. <P> The thyroid gland is one of the body's most important endocrine organs. It is located in the neck just below the thyroid cartilage (Adam's apple) and cricoid cartilage. Although its size can vary, based on each individual's size and iodine intake, the thyroid generally weighs approximately 15-20 grams (1/2 - 3/4 oz). <P> The thyroid cartilage is the largest of the nine cartilages that make up the laryngeal skeleton, the cartilage structure in and around the trachea that contains the larynx. The thyroid cartilage is a cartilage that sits in front of the larynx and above the thyroid gland. The cartilage is composed of two halves, which meet in the middle at a peak called the laryngeal prominence, also called the Adam's apple. In the midline above the prominence is the superior thyroid notch. <P> Cricoid Cartilage Definition and Structure. Cricoid cartilage is an unpaired hyaline cartilage located in the larynx at C6 vertebral level. It rests inferior to the thyroid cartilage. It has a characteristic signet ring shape where the anterior part has an arch and the posterior part is a broad lamina. The other five are the following: 1 Epiglottis: This is attached to the thyroid gland. 2 It is made up of fibrocartilage with a shape like that of a spoon. 3 Epiglottis and cricoid cartilage are the laryngeal cartilages that are not paired. <P> The cricoid cartilage is a ring of cartilage that surrounds the trachea, or windpipe. It is located near the middle and center of the neck. This cartilage consists of strong connective tissue constituting the dorsal (back) part of the larynx, or voice box. The cricoid cartilage is located slightly below the thyroid cartilage, which it connects with through the medial cricothyroid ligament. It also joins the first tracheal ring through the cricotracheal ligament. The thyroid gland has an anatomical relationship with this cartilage <P> Fascia and Ligament. The thyroid gland is ensheathed by the visceral fascia, a division of the middle layer of deep cervical fascia, which attaches it firmly to the laryngoskeleton. The anterior suspensory ligament extends from the superior-medial aspect of each thyroid lobe to the cricoid and thyroid cartilage. The posteromedial aspect of the gland is attached to the side of the cricoid cartilage, first and second tracheal ring, by the posterior suspensory ligament (ie, Berry ligament). <P> It is also anatomically related to the thyroid gland; although the thyroid isthmus is inferior to it, the two lobes of the thyroid extend superiorly on each side of the cricoid as far as the thyroid cartilage above it. Inferior to it are the rings of cartilage around the trachea (which are not continuous-rather they are C-shaped with a gap posteriorly). The cricoid is joined to the first tracheal ring by the cricotracheal ligament, and this can be felt as a more yielding area between the firm thyroid cartilage and firmer cricoid.
The cricoid cartilage is a ring of cartilage that surrounds the trachea, or windpipe.The thyroid gland is located in the neck just below the thyroid cartilage (Adam's apple) and cricoid cartilage.

what is fraternal polyandry
<P> Fraternal polyandry has been practised in Tibet and Nepal, as well as the subcontinent of India, but is waning in popularity; it has the advantage of producing fewer heirs per generation, reducing the issues related to primogeniture and the parcelling of lands by succeeding generations. <P> Fraternal polyandry. Fraternal polyandry (from the Latin frater-brother) is a form of polyandry in which two or more brothers share one wife or more. It is also termed adelphogamy, but this term also has other meanings. Fraternal polyandry is found in certain areas of Tibet and Nepal, where polyandry is accepted as a social practice.

As has been seen, fraternal polyandry was a form of marriage that was prevalent among the tre-ba class. Traditionally, marriages were arranged by the parents, often when the children were still very young. <P> Polyandry is contrasted with polygyny, involving one male and two or more females. If a marriage involve a plural number of husbands and wives participants of each gender, it can be called polyamory, group or conjoint marriage. It is a rare form of marriage that exists not only among poor families, but also the elite. For example, polyandry in the Himalayan mountains is related to the scarcity of land; the marriage of all brothers in a family to the same wife allows family land to remain intact and undivided. <P> Fraternal polyandry (from the Latin frater —brother) is a form of polyandry in which a woman is married to two or more men who are one another's brothers.

what kind of cactus is the top part of the grafted cactus
<P> Scientific Name: The two cactus species most commonly used for moon cactus are Gymnocalycium mihanovichii as the top cactus and Hylocereus spp. as the base. Plant Type: Grafted cactus. Light: The moon cactus plant requires bright indirect sunlight. Full sun will actually harm this container plant, so keep it out of direct sunlight for long periods of time. Water: Water moon cactus thoroughly, then let the plant dry out between waterings. The top cactus of the moon cactus has a mutation that causes it to lack the chlorophyll that makes the cactus green. This mutation exposes the red, orange or yellow color beneath. Cactus that lack chlorophyll cannot live on their own – they die as seedlings unless grafted onto another cactus with chlorophyll. <P> Intro: The popular moon cactus plant is a small grafted cactus. Grafting, which can be done with many plants, is a propagation technique in which a gardener will take two separate plant species, cut them and grow them together as one plant. The plants, if they are compatible, will bond and grow as one. The top cactus of the moon cactus has a mutation that causes it to lack the chlorophyll that makes the cactus green. This mutation exposes the red, orange or yellow color beneath. Cactus that lack chlorophyll cannot live on their own – they die as seedlings unless grafted onto another cactus with chlorophyll. <P> A cactus (plural: cacti, cactuses, or cactus) is a member of the plant family Cactaceae within the order Caryophyllales. The word cactus derives, through Latin, from the Ancient Greek κάκτος, kaktos, a name originally used by Theophrastus for a spiny plant whose identity is not certain. Pereskia (which is close to the ancestral species from which all cacti evolved) does have long-lasting leaves, which are, however, thickened and succulent in many species. Other species of cactus with long-lasting leaves, such as the opuntioid Pereskiopsis, also have succulent leaves. <P> Then prepare the rootstock by beheading a cactus to within a few inches of the soil. Set the scion on top of the cut portion of the still rooted rootstock so both vascular cambium are situated together. Use rubber bands to hold the pieces joined as one. Grafted cactus care is the same as ungrafted cactus. Watch for any insects at the union or rot. Grafting cactus plants is also done to create unique forms, such as weeping plants. Advertisement. Grafting is common in fruiting plants because it increases the maturity of an existing cultivar for earlier fruit production. The scion becomes the top part of the plant with all the originating species’s characteristics. <P> The top of one of these is cut off, and another type of cactus is also cut and placed on top. This is the tricky part: you need to know a bit about each plant's vascular system-the part that gets the food and water around in the plants. <P> The tallest free-standing cactus is Pachycereus pringlei, with a maximum recorded height of 19.2 m (63 ft), and the smallest is Blossfeldia liliputiana, only about 1 cm (0.4 in) in diameter at maturity. Pereskia (which is close to the ancestral species from which all cacti evolved) does have long-lasting leaves, which are, however, thickened and succulent in many species. Other species of cactus with long-lasting leaves, such as the opuntioid Pereskiopsis, also have succulent leaves. <P> Propagation of Moon Cactus. The moon cactus is usually sold already grafted in a process that removes the bottom of the Hibotan and the top of the rootstock cactus. The two halves are set together at the cut ends and soon heal together. The life of the moon cactus can be extended by re-grafting it onto a fresh rootstock. In the event that it doesn’t, care of moon cactus is similar to any succulent or cactus species. Hibotan plants prefer temperatures on the warm side but need a minimum of 48 F. (9 C.) to survive. <P> Cactus Grafting Guide. Cacti are grafted for a variety of reasons. One may simply be to produce a different species mechanically, but the process also produces disease free stems, to provide a new stem for an existing stem that is rotting or to enhance photosynthesis in plants that lack the ability. Grafting cactus plants is also done to create unique forms, such as weeping plants. Advertisement. Grafting is common in fruiting plants because it increases the maturity of an existing cultivar for earlier fruit production. The scion becomes the top part of the plant with all the originating species’s characteristics. <P> These grafted cacti -- occurring in yellow and white as well as red -- typically live only a few years and do not grow appreciably. The Gymnocalycium cultivar -- sometimes called ruby ball cactus or moon cactus -- is actually two cacti in one. Assume your grafted cactus is frost-sensitive, for the stock cactus is often a tropical species, and keep it in rooms where the temperature is above 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Fertilize monthly during the growing season of April to September. <P> 7 Steps to Grafting Cactus. 1. Purchase a healthy red, yellow or orange Gymnocalycium mihanovichii and a healthy Hylocereus large enough for grafting. 2. Disinfect a sharp knife (to reduce risk of infection in the cacti). 3. With the knife, cut the top off of a healthy Hylocereus. The top cactus of the moon cactus has a mutation that causes it to lack the chlorophyll that makes the cactus green. This mutation exposes the red, orange or yellow color beneath. Cactus that lack chlorophyll cannot live on their own – they die as seedlings unless grafted onto another cactus with chlorophyll.

This process is significantly less expensive than wire lath plastering, but at an average cost of $1.10 to $1.30 per square foot, it's somewhat more expensive than joint-compound taping. <P> Plaster Skimming. Both dry lining and wet plastering will usually be finished with a plaster skim. This is a final coat of plastering with a very smooth durable finish to it. In general a plaster skim will only be 2-3mm thick. Plaster skimming is again a difficult art to master. In a bathroom as a surface to place tiles on you may want to go with a waterproof plasterboard, these cost more per unit area but are resistant to mold and mildew. As of May 2011 it costs about £12.50 per m 2 for the materials. <P> If you get it right, doing your own skim plastering can save you a lot of money. If you get it wrong it can cost you a fortune putting it right. Buying (and being prepared to throw away) a sheet of plasterboard and a bag of top coat plaster will cost an extra £20.00 or so but will be worth every penny. Practice laying on skim plaster on a spare plasterboard sheet. The main thing that DIY'ers are unaware of is just how quickly top coat plaster goes hard.

what are eyes
<P> Brown eyes are the most common eye color in the world with over 55% of the world's population having brown eyes. Brown eye color is a dominant genetic trait, and is created by the presence of melanin in the eye. Blue Eyes. Green eye color is often confused with hazel eye color, yet is entirely separate and distinct. Green eye color is the rarest color found around the world, and it is estimated that only around 2% of the world's population has green colored eyes. <P> Most of the eye is filled with a clear gel called the vitreous. Light projects through the pupil and the lens to the back of the eye. The inside lining of the eye is covered by special light-sensing cells that are collectively called the retina. The retina converts light into electrical impulses. Behind the eye, the optic nerve carries these impulses to the brain. The macula is a small extra-sensitive area within the retina that gives central vision. It is located in the center of the retina and contains the fovea, a small depression or pit at the center of the macula that gives the clearest vision. <P> Pit eyes, also known as stemma, are eye-spots which may be set into a pit to reduce the angles of light that enters and affects the eyespot, to allow the organism to deduce the angle of incoming light. Found in about 85% of phyla, these basic forms were probably the precursors to more advanced types of simple eye. Apposition eyes are the most common form of eyes, and are presumably the ancestral form of compound eyes. They are found in all arthropod groups, although they may have evolved more than once within this phylum. Some annelids and bivalves also have apposition eyes <P> Human eye color charts once were used to predict eye colors of children. In the most simplified versions of these charts, brown eyes are considered dominant over both blue and green eyes. And green eyes are thought to be dominant over blue eyes. While these concepts generally are true, the genetics of how eye colors are inherited turn out to be far more complicated than once thought. Eye colors depend on the amount of pigment (melanin) found in the iris and how it is distributed. Light gray-blue eyes contain much less pigment than extremely dark brown eyes. And there are many shades of eye color in between. SEE ALSO: <P> Hazel Eyes. Blue eyes are genetically recessive, and therefore much less common worldwide. Blue eyes are formed by the absence of pigments in the eye, where the blue color is formed by the scattering of light as it's reflected off the iris. Blue Eyes. Green eye color is often confused with hazel eye color, yet is entirely separate and distinct. Green eye color is the rarest color found around the world, and it is estimated that only around 2% of the world's population has green colored eyes. <P> Hazel eyes are similar to brown eyes, although they are typically lighter in color, and have more of a green-yellow tint. Hazel eyes have a higher concentration of melanin (pigment) around the eye's border, which can result in a multi-colored appearance that varies between copper and green depending on the lighting. Most people estimate that around 5-8% of the world's population has hazel colored eyes. Blue Eyes. Green eye color is often confused with hazel eye color, yet is entirely separate and distinct. Green eye color is the rarest color found around the world, and it is estimated that only around 2% of the world's population has green <P> Rod and cone cells in the retina allow conscious light perception and vision including color differentiation and the perception of depth. The human eye can distinguish about 10 million colors. By age 13, the eye attains its full size. The typical adult eye has an anterior to posterior diameter of 24 millimetres, a volume of six cubic centimetres (0.4 cu. in.), and a mass of 7.5 grams (weight of 0.25 oz.). <P> A compound eye may consist of thousands of individual photoreceptor units or ommatidia (ommatidium, singular). The image perceived is a combination of inputs from the numerous ommatidia (individual eye units), which are located on a convex surface, thus pointing in slightly different directions. Apposition eyes are the most common form of eyes, and are presumably the ancestral form of compound eyes. They are found in all arthropod groups, although they may have evolved more than once within this phylum. Some annelids and bivalves also have apposition eye

what are the terrestrial planets
<P> Terrestrial and telluric are from the Latin words for Earth (Terra and Tellus) because these planets composition is similar to that of the Earth. The four terrestrial planets are (in order of distance from the Sun): Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. Other than Earth, it is believed that the conditions on Mars are the most hospitable for life. It may have had life there in the past, and there may still be life on Mars today. A terrestrial planet, also known as a telluric planet or rocky planet is defined as a planet that is composed primarily silicate rocks or metals. In our solar system, the terrestrial planets are the inner planets-i.e. the ones closest to the Sun <P> Mercury is the smallest terrestrial planet in the solar system, about a third of the size of Earth. It has a thin atmosphere, which causes it to swing between burning and freezing temperatures. Mercury is also a dense planet, composed mostly of iron and nickel with an iron core. Earth. Of the four terrestrial planets, Earth is the largest, and the only one that has extensive regions of liquid water. Wateris necessary for life as we know it, and life is abundant on Earth — from the deepest oceans to the highest mountains. <P> In our solar system, there are four terrestrial planets, which also happen to be the four closest to the sun: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. During the creation of the solar system, there were likely more terrestrial planetoids, but they likely merged or were destroyed. Earth. Of the four terrestrial planets, Earth is the largest, and the only one that has extensive regions of liquid water. Wateris necessary for life as we know it, and life is abundant on Earth — from the deepest oceans to the highest mountains. <P> The innermost four planets of our solar system are called the “terrestrial” planets, which comes from the word “telluric”. It is derived from the Latin words “terra” and “tellus”, used to refer to Earth. The terrestrial planets (in order of their distances from the Sun) are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. They are made mostly of silicate rocks and metals, with solid surfaces and atmospheres that range from thick (on Venus) to very thin (on Mercury). 1 The terrestrial planets in our solar system orbit relatively close to the Sun, this gives them their other name; the “Inner Planets”. 2 Earth is the most hospitable to life. 3 Mars may have supported life in the past, but there is no evidence that conditions have ever been life-friendly on Mercury or Venus. <P> Terrestrial Planets. A terrestrial planet, also known as a telluric planet or rocky planet is defined as a planet that is composed primarily silicate rocks or metals. In our solar system, the terrestrial planets are the inner planets-i.e. the ones closest to the Sun <P> The terrestrial planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, sizes to scale. A terrestrial planet, telluric planet or rocky planet is a planet that is composed primarily of silicate rocks or metals. Within the Solar System, the terrestrial planets are the inner planets closest to the Sun, i.e. Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The terms terrestrial planet and telluric planet are derived from Latin words for Earth (Terra and Tellus), as these planets are, in terms of composition, Earth-like. The Solar System has four terrestrial planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. Only one terrestrial planet, Earth, is known to have an active hydrosphere. <P> Not all planets are terrestrial. In our solar system, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are gas giants, also known as jovian planets. It's unclear what the dividing line is between a rocky planet and a terrestrial planet; some super-Earths may have a liquid surface, for example. Earth.

what is the difference between isolation and quarantine
<P> For example, hospitals use isolation for patients with infectious tuberculosis. Quarantine is used to separate and restrict the movement of well persons who may have been exposed to a communicable disease to see if they become ill. These people may have been exposed to a disease and do not know it, or they may have the disease but do not show symptoms. <P> Best Answer: There are different types of isolation. Protective isolation (the patients immune system is weakened and people entering must gown, glove and mask up e.g. AIDS, Chemotherapy) or general (people gown and glove, and/or mask to prevent the spread of a disease from the patient to others e.g. TB, MRSA). This is done for the good of the patient, but is not enforced by the law. <P> Isolation and quarantine are public health practices used to stop or limit the spread of disease. Isolation is used to separate ill persons who have a communicable disease from those who are healthy. Isolation restricts the movement of ill persons to help stop the spread of certain diseases. Quarantine is used to separate and restrict the movement of well persons who may have been exposed to a communicable disease to see if they become ill. These people may have been exposed to a disease and do not know it, or they may have the disease but do not show symptoms. <P> Isolation is the process in which people who are known to be ill with a dangerous, contagious disease are treated to prevent the disease from spreading. Quarantine is the process in which people who have been exposed to an infectious disease, but are not yet known to be ill, are kept separate from others and monitored. Isolation lasts for the period of time in which a disease is considered infectious. Quarantine lasts for the incubation period for the disease, after which officials can be certain that an individual is not infected. <P> edit Process. People in isolation receive care for their disease, separate from others, with precautions put into place to protect doctors such as wearing protective clothing. They are usually cared for in a hospital or in a care facility, but occasionally receive care in their home. Isolation lasts for the period of time in which a disease is considered infectious. Quarantine lasts for the incubation period for the disease, after which officials can be certain that an individual is not infected. <P> People who are ill with a contagious disease are put into isolation to prevent the disease from spreading. Healthy individuals who have been exposed to a dangerous contagious disease are put into quarantine. Isolation lasts for the period of time in which a disease is considered infectious. Quarantine lasts for the incubation period for the disease, after which officials can be certain that an individual is not infected. <P> Quarantine is legally enforced isolation, typically to contain the spread of something considered dangerous, often but not always disease. Quarantine can be brief (as in remove those contaminated clothes) or a longer term (when you bring a pet into the UK). AIDS, Chemotherapy) or general (people gown and glove, and/or mask to prevent the spread of a disease from the patient to others e.g. TB, MRSA). This is done for the good of the patient, but is not enforced by the law. <P> The difference between quarantine and isolation can be summed up like this: 1 Isolation applies to persons who are known to be ill with a contagious disease. 2 Quarantine applies to those who have been exposed to a contagious disease but who may or may not become ill. <P> As the definition suggest, isolation is the act of separating people who are already sick from other people in order to keep the general public from getting sick. A person is often kept in an enclosed space in the hospital or home, where they are allowed only limited contact with the other public. Quarantine is often used when a person comes into contact with an unknown substance or hazardous materials, which may or may not be detrimental to the person’s health. In this case, the person is usually placed under quarantine until proper tests are conducted. Difference between Isolation and Quarantine: Isolation. <P> Key Difference: Isolation is when the person who is infected with a particular disease is separated from the public to keep the public safe. The terms quarantine and isolation often scare people because usually represents the seriousness of a disease. Quarantine is often used when a person comes into contact with an unknown substance or hazardous materials, which may or may not be detrimental to the person’s health. In this case, the person is usually placed under quarantine until proper tests are conducted. Difference between Isolation and Quarantine: Isolation.

what constitutes a mountain
<P> Unfortunately, there is no universally accepted standard definition for the height of a mountain or a hill although a mountain usually has an identifiable summit. In the United Kingdom, a mountain must be over 600 meters (1969 feet) or over 300 meters (984 feet) if it's an abrupt difference in the local topography. However, some hills can be called mountains and some mountains can be called hills-it's just a matter of the original name given to the relief. <P> The dictionary defines a mountain as that which is ‘ higher and steeper than a hill ’. A mountain is a landform that rises high above the surrounding terrain in a limited area. They are made from rocks and earth. Generally, mountains are higher than 600 metres. Those less than 600 metres are called hills. <P> · just now. Report Abuse. I'm not sure but according to what I found on the internet 69 feet is enough to get called a mountain cliff and 534 feet by some counts and 509 feet by others is enough to be called a mountain. Pools Bluff is a mountain cliff in Washington County in the state of Louisiana (LA). <P> Defining what a mountain is can be tricky, but a good definition is, any land mass higher and steeper than a hill.. Many geographers agree that mountains are a minimum of two thousand feet high, and have a slope that's greater than two degrees. <P> The dictionary defines a mountain as that which is ‘ higher and steeper than a hill ’. A mountain is a landform that rises high above the surrounding terrain in a limited area. They are made from rocks and earth. Generally, mountains are higher than 600 metres. Those less than 600 metres are called hills. Some common features of mountains include the following: 1 the summit, or the top of a mountain; 2 the slope, or side of the mountain; and. 3 a very steep valley between young mountains, known as a gorge. <P> A mountain's height above sea level is called its elevation, with its highest point called a summit or peak. Geologists, it turns out, don't readily agree what height makes a mountain a mountain, but an elevation of 300 meters (1,000 feet) is generally high enough to earn the classification. Mt. Everest, located in the country of Nepal, rises 8,850 meters (29,035 feet) above sea level, which makes it the world's highest point. <P> A mountain range (also mountain barrier/belt/chain/system) is a geographic area containing numerous geologically related mountains. A mountain system or system of mountain ranges, sometimes is used to combine several geological features that are geographically (regionally) related. If the definition of a mountain range is stretched to include underwater mountains, then the Ocean Ridges form the longest continuous mountain system on Earth, with a length of 65,000 kilometres (40,400 mi). <P> A mountain is a large landform that stretches above the surrounding land in a limited area, usually in the form of a peak. A mountain is generally steeper than a hill. Mountains are formed through tectonic forces or volcanism. For a while, the US defined a mountain as being 1,000 feet (300 m) or taller. Any similar landform lower than this height was considered a hill. However, today, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) concludes that these terms do not have technical definitions in the US. <P> The Answer: According to our dictionary, a mountain is a natural elevation of the earth's surface rising more or less abruptly to a summit, and attaining an altitude greater than that of a hill, usually greater than 2000 ft. (610 m).. <P> Whether a landform is called a mountain may depend on local usage. The highest point in San Francisco, California, is called Mount Davidson, notwithstanding its height of 300 m (980 ft), which makes it twenty feet short of the minimum for a mountain by American designations. Similarly, Mount Scott outside Lawton, Oklahoma is only 251 m (823 ft) from its base to its highest point. For a while, the US defined a mountain as being 1,000 feet (300 m) or taller. Any similar landform lower than this height was considered a hill. However, today, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) concludes that these terms do not have technical definitions in the US.

types of blood cancers
<P> Needless to say, she breathed a big sigh of relief. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or CLL, is one of the many types of blood cancers. Blood cancers derive from the cells of the bone marrow and lymph nodes. <P> There are four types of blood cancer depending upon the course of the disease and the origin of the affected blood cells. The former criterion classifies the types into either acute or chronic. The later criterion further divides the types as lymphoblastic or lymphocytic leukemias and myeloid or myelogenous leukemias. The red blood cells provide oxygen to the entire body. The white blood cells protect our body and platelets helps in clotting of the blood in the face of injury. Irrespective of the types of the disease, any abnormality in these cell types leads to blood cancer. <P> When white blood cells belonging to this system are affected, the cancer is lymphoid cancer. Myeloid Cancer: As mentioned earlier, blood cells are produced in the bone marrow. The process is technically called Haematopoiesis. All these cells of blood are produced from single cell type called the stem cell. The red blood cells provide oxygen to the entire body. The white blood cells protect our body and platelets helps in clotting of the blood in the face of injury. Irrespective of the types of the disease, any abnormality in these cell types leads to blood cancer. <P> 1 Non-Hodgkin lymphoma: Cancer that develops in the lymphatic system from cells called lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell that helps the body fight infections. 2 Hodgkin lymphoma: Cancer that develops in the lymphatic system from cells called lymphocytes. Types of blood cancers. Common types of blood cancer include: 1 Leukemia: Cancer that originates in blood-forming tissue. 2 Non-Hodgkin lymphoma: Cancer that develops in the lymphatic system from cells called lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell that helps the body fight infection <P> 1 Leukemia: Cancer that originates in blood-forming tissue. 2 Non-Hodgkin lymphoma: Cancer that develops in the lymphatic system from cells called lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell that helps the body fight infections. Types of blood cancers. Common types of blood cancer include: 1 Leukemia: Cancer that originates in blood-forming tissue. <P> Blood cancer is a type of cancer or tumor. Blood cancer hurts the blood, bone marrow, lymph, and lymphatic system. Sometimes more than one body part is hurt. The cause is usually different from other types of cancer. The way to find out if a person has this cancer is also different. The treatment is usually drugs. <P> There are three main types of blood cancers: Leukemia, a type of cancer found in your blood and bone marrow, is caused by the rapid production of abnormal white blood cells. Myeloma is a cancer of the plasma cells. Plasma cells are white blood cells that produce disease-and infection-fighting antibodies in your body. Myeloma cells prevent the normal production of antibodies, leaving your body's immune system weakened and susceptible to infection. <P> Blood cancers affect the production and function of your blood cells. Most of these cancers start in your bone marrow where blood is produced. Stem cells in your bone marrow mature and develop into three types of blood cells: red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets. In most blood cancers, the normal blood cell development process is interrupted by uncontrolled growth of an abnormal type of blood cell. Myeloma is a cancer of the plasma cells. Plasma cells are white blood cells that produce disease-and infection-fighting antibodies in your body. Myeloma cells prevent the normal production of antibodies, leaving your body's immune system weakened and susceptible to infection.

where is stars hollow filmed
<P> Scenes from the Town of Stars Hollow: The pilot for “Gilmore Girls” was shot in a small town in Toronto (Historic Unionville) . When the show was picked up, they reproduced the look of the interiors from the pilot on soundstages in Burbank, California. I absolutely LOVE Gilmore Girls! I was also late getting into the show but I watch the reruns on t.v. all the time. I always tell my husband I want to live in Stars Hollow! Thank you for posting these pictures; I love the cozy feeling of Lorelai and Rory’s house. <P> (March 2012). Stars Hollow was inspired by and is loosely based on the actual village of Washington Depot, Connecticut (located in the middle of the western half of the state, about 45 minutes from both Hartford and New Haven) which writer Amy Sherman-Palladino once traveled through. Unionville, Ontario 's Main Street was used as a stand-in for Stars Hollow in the show's pilot which became the first episode. Since 2010, the Gilmore Girls set is used for the ABC Family show, Pretty Little Liars. Luke's Diner is now used as Rosewood Cafe. Hart of Dixie' s fictional Bluebell also uses the square <P> Stars Hollow is a fictional small town in Connecticut featured on the television show Gilmore Girls. It is depicted as a close-knit small town with many quirky characters, located roughly thirty minutes by car from Hartford. It is loosely based on the towns of Essex, Wallingford, and Washington, Connecticut, but filming of the pilot was done in historical Main Street Unionville in Unionville, Ontario. Unionville, Ontario 's Main Street was used as a stand-in for Stars Hollow in the show's pilot which became the first episode.

The show, Gilmore Girls, takes place in a fictional town named Stars Hollow created by Amy Sherman-Palladino. Lorelai came from a wealthy family with everything open to her, but ended up in the small town in Connecticut. Through out the show you learn about how Stars Hollow was founded and how it was named <P> Stars Hollow is actually a Warner Bros. backlot set that was built decades earlier for films like The Music Man. So it was not meant to look like Washington Depot. Still when I arrived in the town center there were all the familiar elements: a town hall, churches, small businesses, and a central lawn. On the show its portrayed a quaint little town with lots of quirky characters and it kind of shaped my expectations of Connecticut when I moved up here. I did a quick search on the Wikipedia and discovered that show creator Amy Sherman-Palladino based Stars Hollow on the real-life town of Washington Depot, CT. <P> Stars Hollow from Gilmore Girls. Despite the fact that Amy Sherman-Palladino’s dramedy was ostensibly about the titular mother-daughter duo, Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, it was the town of Stars Hollow that gave the show its heart. <P> In trying to think of where to go, I came up with the idea of searching for the real Stars Hollow, CT. Stars Hollow is the fictional town that played host to the Gilmore Girls, a television show which I embarrassingly admit I used to watch. On the show its portrayed a quaint little town with lots of quirky characters and it kind of shaped my expectations of Connecticut when I moved up here. I did a quick search on the Wikipedia and discovered that show creator Amy Sherman-Palladino based Stars Hollow on the real-life town of Washington Depot, CT. <P> ``Hey, literally, this place does not exist. It's a total imagination.''. But for fans of ``The Gilmore Girls,'' Stars Hollow is dead-on in its depiction of the cozy Connecticut exurbs, down to its storefront coffee shop and the gazebo on the green. Not bad for a generic back lot that ``has been in thousands of movies,'' Sherman-Palladino said.

what is softwood good for
<P> Classifying wood as either a hardwood or softwood comes down to its physical structure and makeup, and so it is overly simple to think of hardwoods as being hard and durable compared to soft and workable softwoods. <P> Softwood is also used in the production of paper, and for various types of board such as MDF (medium-density fiberboard). The finer softwoods have many special uses. they are used for making window frames,doors,frames,t.v. stands,flooring and beds. <P> Softwood is just normal wood from a tree, but it's only wood from certain types of trees. All the pine and fir trees are softwood trees (conifers) and the leafy trees like oak … s and maples (deciduous) are hardwood trees. <P> When comparing hardwood vs softwood it's important to understand that all firewood is not equal. Specific burning characteristics like heat generation, coaling qualities and lighting ability should all play a role in deciding which type of firewood will work best for you. <P> Softwood timber, which is used for softwood decking comes from faster growing, evergreen or coniferous trees. Commonly used hardwoods for decking are: ipe, teak, iroko and cumaru. The most commonly used softwood for decking is pine. <P> As it turns out, a hardwood is not necessarily a harder material (more dense) and a softwood is not necessarily a softer material (less dense). For example, balsa wood is one of the lightest, least dense woods there is, and it's considered a hardwood. <P> Examples are Pine, Fir, Spruce, Larch, Cedar and the Giant Redwood. Remember, the terms softwoods and hardwoods are used to describe the leaves, seeds and structure of the trees. It is NOT used to describe the type of wood produced. For example, balsa is light and very soft to use. <P> Softwood is just normal wood from a tree, but it's only wood from certain types of trees. All the pine and fir trees are softwood trees (conifers) and the leafy trees like oak … s and maples (deciduous) are hardwood trees. <P> used for making stuff like childrens toys etc Softwood has a huge range of applications: it is the primary material used for building components, and is also found in furnitu … re and other products such as millwork (mouldings, doors, windows).

how do we capture this energy source for kids
<P> It is renewable! It is considered ' Renewable Energy ' because... The technology used to convert the sun's power into electricity does not produce smoke (carbon dioxide and other air pollutants). Tapping the sun's energy does not usually destroy the environment. Solar panels do not generate electricity directly. Instead they heat up water directly. A pump pushes cold water from a storage tank through pipes in the solar panel. The water is heated by heat energy from the Sun and returns to the tank. <P> Turning the energy of the ocean's waves and tides into power that we can use is a new and unproven technology. However, the potential is there for a significant renewable and environmentally clean energy source. There are also three main ways that tidal energy is harnessed: 1 Tidal Barrages-A tidal barrage works like a dam. 2 When the tide goes high, the reservoir fills up. 3 When the tide drops the dam lets the water out. 4 In both directions the moving water can spin the blades of turbines to create electricity. <P> Some people think tidal energy is a very good source of renewable, clean energy and that we should use it in as many places as we can. Other people think that since tidal energy plants can only produce electricity for about ten hours every day, it is not worth the danger to plants, animals, and ecosystems. Benefits of Tidal Energy. Tidal energy is a good source of alternative energy because it does not create any pollution of any kind. It is completely safe for our environment. It is also good because a high amount of energy can be captured using the tides and it does not cost much to turn it to electricity. <P> We asked Paul Alivisatos, deputy laboratory director at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California and a leader of their Helios solar energy research project, to explain how people capture energy from sunlight and how we can do it better. <P> Nuclear reactions energize stars, including our Sun. The energy we capture for use on Earth comes largely from the Sun or from nuclear forces local to our own planet. Sunlight is by far the predominant source, and it contains a surprisingly large amount of energy. <P> The Sun. Most of the energy we capture for use on Earth originates in the nuclear reactions powering our Sun. Coal, oil, natural gas, biomass, and even the wind and hydropower we harness to generate electricity, originally derive their energy content from the Sun. Learn how our local star is the ultimate energy source <P> Play Power Up! Play Power Up! Capture clean energy from the wind and the Sun to produce enough electricity to run the town. Move your wind turbine up and down to keep it in the strongest, fastest winds. Keep your solar panels in the bright sunlight and out of the rain. See if you can light up the whole town. <P> Solar power is energy from the sun. Solar is the Latin word for sun and it's a powerful source of energy. Without it, there will be no life. Solar energy is considered as a serious source of energy for many years because of the vast amounts of energy that is made freely available, if harnessed by modern technology. Solar panels do not generate electricity directly. Instead they heat up water directly. A pump pushes cold water from a storage tank through pipes in the solar panel. The water is heated by heat energy from the Sun and returns to the tank. <P> Electricity can be produced using several kinds of renewable resources. Wind energy can produce electricity in regions where steady winds blow. Giant wind turbines capture the wind’s energy and use it to power generators. Biomass is material that is formed from living organisms, such as wood or agricultural wastes. Biomass can be burned to produce electricity, or be converted to a gas and used for fuel. Geothermal energy uses hot water or steam from deep beneath the earth’s surface to produce electricity. Hydroelectric power plants use the energy of falling water to spin generator turbines.

recommended markup price for temp agencies
<P> 1 The typical fee for employers using a temp agency is 12-50% of the employee's hourly rate. 2 For example, if an employee earns $10 per hour from the temp agency, and the agency's markup is 50%, the employer will pay an extra $5 per hour to the temp agency for a total of $15 per hour. <P> Staffing Markup. Staffing markup is a term used by staffing companies to describe the fees charged over and above wages paid to a contract or temporary employee. The implication is that you, the client, has input into the decision on pay rate of the temp or contract employee. <P> 1 When a business chooses to hire a temp agency as a permanent employee, the business must pay the temp agency a permanent staffing fee ranging from 10-25% of the employee's first-year salary. <P> After settling on an hourly rate that the company is willing to pay the employee, the temp agency adds a markup to this amount. The markup ranges anywhere from 25 percent to 100 percent, depending on the agency and how much demand there is for the employee. <P> 1 For example, if an employee earns $10 per hour from the temp agency, and the agency's markup is 50%, the employer will pay an extra $5 per hour to the temp agency for a total of $15 per hour. 2 Some large organizations have in-house temporary agencies which apply similar fees for their services. <P> The pay rate (aka hourly rate) of the worker plus the markup is called the bill rate. Markups can range from 30% to 60%+ with an average in the high thirtieth percentiles across all skill disciplines. Some staffing suppliers promote rates below 30% and, conversely, some services may charge 75% to 100%+ markups. <P> 1. Temp agencies... generally charge 35 to 40% markup above the pay rate their client is willing to pay the temp employee. However, those rates are subject to negotiation and in this economy, some agencies are charging much less for their services. Also, the rate will change depending on the geographic location. <P> 1 Some large organizations have in-house temporary agencies which apply similar fees for their services. 2 For example, the University of Washington charges a 29% markup, with department's paying $18.06 per hour for a temporary employee who actually earns $14 per hour.

what organisms causes eye corneal ulcer
<P> There are several causes of corneal ulcers in dogs. The most common cause is trauma. An ulcer may result from blunt trauma, such as a dog rubbing its eye on the carpet, or due to a laceration, such as a cat scratch or a contact with a sharp object. Another common cause is chemical burn of the cornea. <P> If your doctor suspects that bacteria are the cause of your corneal ulcer, usually treatment includes frequent application of topical antibiotics, with or without initial cultures. The location and size of the ulceration will guide your eye doctor in determining the need for cultures. Most cases of corneal ulcer are due to a bacterial infection that invades the cornea often following eye injury, trauma or other damage. A corneal ulcer can result from an infection following damage from an eye injury or irritation from an ill-fitting or dirty contact lens. <P> Tiny tears to the cornea may also cause corneal ulcers. These tears can come from direct trauma, scratches or particles such as sand, glass or small pieces of metal. Such injuries damage the cornea and make it easier for bacteria to invade and cause an ulcer. 1 Bacterial infections cause corneal ulcers and are common in people who wear contact lenses. 2 Viral infections are also possible causes of corneal ulcers. 3 Such viruses include the herpes simplex virus (the virus that causes cold sores) or the varicella zoster virus (the virus that causes chickenpox and shingles). <P> Tiny cuts or scratches in the corneal surface may become infected and lead to corneal ulcers. For example, metal, wood, glass, or almost any type of particle that strikes the cornea can cause minor trauma. Such injuries damage the corneal surface and make it easier for bacteria to invade and cause a corneal ulcer. Most corneal ulcers are caused by infections. Bacterial infections cause corneal ulcers and are common in people who wear contact lenses. Bacteria can directly invade the cornea if the corneal surface has been disrupted. Some bacteria produce toxins that can cause ulceration of the cornea. <P> 1 Tiny tears to the cornea may also cause corneal ulcers. 2 These tears can come from direct trauma; scratches; or particles, such as sand, glass, or small pieces of steel. 3 Such injuries damage the cornea and make it easier for bacteria to invade and cause a serious ulcer. 1 People who contract this type of infection have been treated with steroid eyedrops or are wearing contact lenses which are not properly disinfected. 2 Tiny tears to the cornea may also cause corneal ulcers. 3 <P> (Redirected from Ulcerative keratitis). For the condition in animals, see Corneal ulcers in animals. Corneal ulcer, or ulcerative keratitis, is an inflammatory or more seriously, infective condition of the cornea involving disruption of its epithelial layer with involvement of the corneal stroma. It is a common condition in humans particularly in the tropics and the agrarian societies. Corneal ulcers are a common human eye disease. They are caused by trauma, particularly with vegetable matter, as well as chemical injury, contact lenses and infections. Other eye conditions can cause corneal ulcers, such as entropion, distichiasis, corneal dystrophy, and keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye). <P> Corneal ulcer. A corneal ulcer is usually due to a bacteria or virus causing a painful, red eye. The corneal ulcer may feel like something is in the eye irritating it and there may be increased sensitivity to light. People who get a lot of cold sores often develop corneal ulcers. 1 Bacterial infections cause corneal ulcers and are common in people who wear contact lenses. 2 Viral infections are also possible causes of corneal ulcers. 3 Such viruses include the herpes simplex virus (the virus that causes cold sores) or the varicella zoster virus (the virus that causes chickenpox and shingles). <P> Scraping the Ulcer. If your doctor spots an ulcer on your cornea, he or she will further investigate to find out what caused it. Your doctor may determine the cause by numbing your eye with eye drops, then gently scraping the ulcer to obtain a sample of it. He will test the sample to find out if it contains bacteria, fungi, or a virus. At the front of the eye is a clear layer of tissue called the cornea. The cornea is the window of your eye and permits light to enter the eye. Tears constitute the natural defense against bacteria, viruses, or fungi for the cornea. A corneal ulcer is an open sore that forms on the cornea, usually caused by infection <P> 1 Bacterial infections cause corneal ulcers and are common in people who wear contact lenses. 2 Viral infections are also possible causes of corneal ulcers. 3 Such viruses include the herpes simplex virus (the virus that causes cold sores) or the varicella virus (the virus that causes chickenpox and shingles). 1 People who contract this type of infection have been treated with steroid eyedrops or are wearing contact lenses which are not properly disinfected. 2 Tiny tears to the cornea may also cause corneal ulcers. 3 These tears can come from direct trauma; scratches; or particles, such as sand, glass, or small pieces of steel.

how much is enough credit for to qualify for social security
<P> We use your total yearly earnings to figure your Social Security credits. The amount needed for a credit in 2015 is $1,220. You can earn a maximum of four credits for any year. The amount needed to earn one credit increases automatically each year when average wages increase. You must earn a certain number of credits to qualify for Social Security benefits. The number of credits you need depends on your age when you apply and the type of benefit application. No one needs more than 40 credits for any Social Security benefit. More Information. <P> Example: If you became disabled at age 29, you must have enough credits for 4 years of work (16 credits). The following chart outlines how many work credits you will need to receive Social Security Disability benefits. For example, disability applicants who are under 24 years of age may be able to qualify for Social Security Disability benefits if they have earned a total of six work credits in the three years prior to the onset of the disability. <P> No matter how much your household income is, you can qualify for Social Security Disability SSDI benefits if you meet the SSA's disability criteria and have enough work credits to qualify for SSDI benefits from the Social Security Administration. For example, disability applicants who are under 24 years of age may be able to qualify for Social Security Disability benefits if they have earned a total of six work credits in the three years prior to the onset of the disability. <P> The number of credits you need to be eligible for Social Security depends on the program and your age. For retirement benefits, the required number of credits is simple: You have to have earned 40 credits, equivalent to 10 years of work if you earn the maximum number of credits per year. Disability benefits involve complex rules. Having 40 credits is always adequate, but the younger you are, the fewer credits you need. <P> Social Security requires a minimum of 40 credits for retirement benefits, whether you take early retirement at age 62 or wait until your full retirement age (which varies between 65 and 67, depending on the year of your birth). If you don't have the 40 credits, you don't draw any retirement. <P> Earning Social Security credits is simple. Each year, the SSA looks at the amount of money you earn from work on which you pay Social Security payroll taxes. In 2015, you get one credit for every $1,220 you make and pay Social Security taxes on. That $1,220 figure gets adjusted for inflation every year. For retirement benefits, the required number of credits is simple: You have to have earned 40 credits, equivalent to 10 years of work if you earn the maximum number of credits per year. Disability benefits involve complex rules. Having 40 credits is always adequate, but the younger you are, the fewer credits you need. <P> If you have not worked or do not have enough Social Security credits to qualify for your own Social Security benefits, you may be able to receive spouse’s benefits.

For example, disability applicants who are under 24 years of age may be able to qualify for Social Security Disability benefits if they have earned a total of six work credits in the three years prior to the onset of the disability. <P> The Social Security Administration (SSA) determines if you have worked enough to qualify for SSD by converting your earnings into work credits. The dollar amount it takes to earn one work credit is calculated annually. In the year 2015, you must earn $1,220 to get one Social Security work credit, or $4,880 to get the maximum four credits for the year. It doesn't matter in which quarter you did the work. Previously (before 1978), a credit was equal to having worked for one quarter in which you earned at least $50 <P> You are allowed to continue working and still receive Social Security benefits. However, if you are under full retirement age, you are limited in the amount you can earn. In 2011, that amount is $14,160.

how many chromosomes in a human muscle cell
<P> There are 46 chromosomes in a normal human body cell, but in a sperm or an ovum (egg) there are 23 (half the number of chromosomes in a body cell. 2 people found this useful. <P> The human body cells each contain a total of 46 chromosomes, which are grouped into 23 pairs, one set from each parent. Each cell receives a chromosome carrying the same traits from both parents, which then forms a pair. There are 22 pairs of normal chromosomes, and 1 pair of sex chromosomes. Millions in the human body. Each cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes that have genetic importance. 22 of these are autosomes and one sex chromosome. The 22 determine traits and sex chromosomes determine the gender-XX develops into female and XY develops into male. <P> There are 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) in a human body cell with the exception of the sex cells. One of each pair is inherited from the mother's egg, the other from the father's sperm. When the sperm and egg unite in fertilization, they create a single cell, or zygote, with 46 chromosomes. Millions in the human body. Each cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes that have genetic importance. 22 of these are autosomes and one sex chromosome. The 22 determine traits and sex chromosomes determine the gender-XX develops into female and XY develops into male. <P> Somatic cells (body cells) are haploid cells. They have 23 pairs of chromosomes. Reproductive cells (gametes) have half the normal number i.e. 23. This is because two gametes (one male and one female) have to fuse hence, restoring the original number of 23 pairs. Millions in the human body. Each cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes that have genetic importance. 22 of these are autosomes and one sex chromosome. The 22 determine traits and sex chromosomes determine the gender-XX develops into female and XY develops into male. <P> Therefore there is a total of 23 pairs of chromosome in a human body cell. However the human gametes formed by meiosis have haploid number of chromosomes i.e. they have only 23 chromosomes instead of 46; so that after fertilization the zygote has 23 pairs of chromosome(23 from the sperm and 23 from the ovum). Millions in the human body. Each cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes that have genetic importance. 22 of these are autosomes and one sex chromosome. The 22 determine traits and sex chromosomes determine the gender-XX develops into female and XY develops into male. <P> Females have two copies of the X chromosome, while males have one X and one Y chromosome. The 22 autosomes are numbered by size. The other two chromosomes, X and Y, are the sex chromosomes. This picture of the human chromosomes lined up in pairs is called a karyotype. In humans, each cell normally contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46. Twenty-two of these pairs, called autosomes, look the same in both males and females. The 23rd pair, the sex chromosomes, differ between males and females. <P> But sex cells (sperm or ovum, known as gametes or diploid cells) contain only … 23 chromosomes (unpaired), when they meet (forming a Zygote), the 23 from each male and female gamete form a cell containing 46 chromosomes to make a Haploid cell. Yes, genes are constructed from DNA, and the chromosomes are where the genes are held, in the cell nucleus. Note that the chromsomes are not always visible. Normally the nuc … leus is just an amorphous mass of genetic material. <P> Whether you are a male or female depends on the presence or absence of certain chromosomes. Human cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes for a total of 46. There are 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. The sex chromosomes are the X chromosome and the Y chromosome. Sex Chromosomes: In human sexual reproduction, two distinct gametes fuse to form a zygote. <P> All act in the same way during cell division. Human cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes (22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes), giving a total of 46 per cell. In addition to these, human cells have many hundreds of copies of the mitochondrial genome. Compaction of the duplicated chromosomes during cell division (mitosis or meiosis) results either in a four-arm structure (pictured to the right) if the centromere is located in the middle of the chromosome or a two-arm structure if the centromere is located near one of the ends.
In humans, each cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46.
cost of retainers vs braces
<P> Most people wear braces for one to three years, depending on what conditions need correcting. The cost of braces can range from $2,000 to $7,000. Removable appliances: Shaped like a mouth guard, removable appliances (sometimes called retainers) are small, custom-fit devices made of plastic and metal. <P> A retainer usually is included in the overall fee for braces. When retainers are recommended to correct a minor overbite without the need for braces, retainer costs may range from $500 to $1,000. This cost incorporates office visits, X-rays and fittings. <P> A dental retainer is a fixed or removable appliance that is prescribed to patients to wear after their braces are removed. A typical orthodontic treatment goes for 6 months to 2 years (sometimes longer) and when it is completed, patients will be measured for the fabrication of the retainers. <P> 1 However, a retainer is usually included in the overall braces fee, so there is no additional charge for the first set of retainers -- and some orthodontists include one or two replacements in their standard braces package. 2 If not included, replacement retainers can cost $70-$250 for one or $140-$500 or more for a set. <P> 1 Vivera clear plastic retainers by Invisalign have an annual fee of $300-$750, for a new set of identical retainers delivered every three months. 2 Vivera retainers can be used by people whose teeth were straightened by conventional braces as well as those who used Invisalign's series of clear plastic aligner trays. <P> The cost of braces varies, but you can expect the cost for conventional metal braces to average $5,000 (or less in rural areas). Some insurance carriers provide partial coverage for orthodontic treatment, so check with your insurance provider for the specifics of what your policy covers. WebMD Medical Reference. <P> 1 Removable Hawley retainers (made of hard acrylic molded to fit the patient's mouth plus a visible wire to hold the teeth in position) can cost $150-$300 or more for one, or $300-$600 or more for a set (upper and lower). <P> 1 If not included, replacement retainers can cost $70-$250 for one or $140-$500 or more for a set. 2 Most dental insurance does not cover replacement retainers. 3 Removable Essix retainers made of vacuum-formed clear plastic typically cost $100-$250 for one or $200-$500

why do you do a temporal artery biopsy
<P> If a temporal artery biopsy shows no signs of inflammation but your symptoms strongly suggest giant cell arteritis, you and your doctor will discuss the risks and benefits of treatment and of no treatment. You and your doctor will decide whether or not you will proceed with treatment. If you are taking high-dose corticosteroids, the biopsy result may not be accurate. In this case, any biopsy testing must be performed as soon as possible, preferably within 2 to 5 days. Biopsies done more than about a week after the start of high-dose corticosteroids may be falsely normal (false-negative). <P> Temporal artery biopsy. A temporal artery biopsy is most commonly used to test for giant cell arteritis. During the procedure, the skin on the side of your head is numbed with a local anaesthetic. An incision is made close to the hairline in front of your ear, and a small sample of your temporal artery is removed. Blood tests. If your GP suspects you may have giant cell arteritis, they'll refer you for blood tests to help assess the levels of inflammation inside your body. Two blood tests that you may have are erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP). <P> An Overview of Temporal Artery Biopsy. A temporal artery biopsy is a procedure in which a small piece of tissue is removed from your temporal artery and then studied under a microscope to check for signs of inflammation and damage. On the day of the biopsy, you will change into a hospital gown and may be taken to a special room where the procedure will be done. Your healthcare provider will locate your temporal artery. He or she will then use a small needle to deliver medicine that will numb the skin near the biopsy site. <P> If you have symptoms of giant cell arteritis (GCA) and your doctor believes you may have it, he or she may order a temporal artery biopsy to make sure.

Temporal artery biopsy is the primary modality for establishing a diagnosis of giant cell (temporal) arteritis. Giant cell arteritis is a chronic vasculitis affecting medium and large diameter arteries, predominantly in older individuals [ 1,2 ]. Temporal artery biopsy, which identifies the characteristic histopathology, remains the primary modality to diagnose giant cell (temporal) arteritis [ 6,7 ]. <P> (Giant Cell Arteritis). Temporal arteritis, also known as giant cell arteritis, is an inflammatory condition that affects the medium to large arteries in the body. It is a systemic condition, which means that any medium to large artery in any part of the body can be affected. This includes the eye, brain and heart. Temporal artery biopsy: This is performed under local anesthesia and can take up to 40 minutes. It involves shaving hair from your temple and then making a 1 to 2 inch incision. A small piece of your superficial temporal artery is removed and sent to the laboratory for histopathological analysis.

what are composite volcanoes made of quizlet
<P> T he 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. Schematic representation of the internal structue of a typical composite volcano. S ome of the Earth's grandest mountains are composite volcanoes--sometimes called stratovolcanoes. They are typically steep-sided, symmetrical cones of large dimension built of alternating layers of lava flows, volcanic ash, cinders, blocks, and bombs and may rise as much as 8,000 feet above their bases. <P> Composite volcanoes are constructed from multiple eruptions, sometimes recurring over hundreds of thousands of years, sometimes over a few hundred. Andesite magma, the most common but not the only magma type forming composite cones, produces lava more brittle than basaltic lava because of its higher viscosity. <P> Some of the most conspicuous and beautiful mountains in the world are composite volcanoes, including Mount Fuji in Japan, Mount Cotopaxi in Ecuador, Mount Shasta in California, Mount Hood in Oregon, and Mount St. Helens and Mount Rainier in Washington. Volcanic domes commonly occur within the craters or on the flanks of large composite volcanoes. The nearly circular Novarupta Dome that formed during the 1912 eruption of Katmai Volcano, Alaska, measures 800 feet across and 200 feet high. <P> Composite volcanoes, also called strato volcanoes, are formed by alternating layers of lava and rock fragments. This is the reason they are called composite. Strato-volcanoe … s often form impressive, snow-capped peaks which are often exceeding 2500m in height, 1000sq.km in surface, and 400km3 in volume. They are formed when an oceanic plate goes under another oceanic plate. Causing it to go under to the mantle. Which causes it to burn making the magma turn into lava. Once the lava hardens it then forms a Composite Volcano. <P> St. Augustine volcano, Alaska. Composite volcanoes are built by multiple eruptions, sometimes recurring over hundreds of thousands of years, sometimes over a few hundred. Andesite magma, the most common but not the only magma type, tends to form composite cones. <P> A strong amount of lava flows from the central vent of the volcano to the summit where it disperses in all directions, evenly sloping into a flat, dome shape. (Travels long distances) very runny Lava. <P> A composite volcano is built up from alternate layers of ash and lava. It has steep sides because when it erupts it lava is thick and viscous (andesitic) meaning that it does … not travel great distances and stays on the side of the volcano. An example is Mount Vesuvius (which destroyed Pompeii). They are formed when an oceanic plate goes under another oceanic plate. Causing it to go under to the mantle. Which causes it to burn making the magma turn into lava. Once the lava hardens it then forms a Composite Volcano. <P> Composite Volcanoes. http://www.winona.edu/geology/MRW/Archean.htm. Composite volcanoes, also known as stratovolcanoes, make up some of the most known volcanoes that we have here on earth. A composite volcano is made up of many layers of hardened lava and volcano ash from eruptions that have already taken place. Shield volcanoes are very large in size; the picture above shows an example of one which is the largest volcano on earth, Mauna Lau. They are formed by lava flows of low-viscosity, so over time and flow after flow, it is what makes the mountain grow. <P> The volcanoes form on the continental side of a subduction zone. The melting oceanic crust forms pools of molten rock in a magma chamber. The magma, molten rock, in the magma chamber is lighter than the volcano rocks that surround it. The magma works its way to the summit where it erupts as tephra or in thick lava flows. Lava eruptions on stratovolcanoes. <P> Composite Volcano. A composite volcano forms in subduction zones when a crustal plate is forced into the mantle and begins to melt. Andesite, dacite and rhyolite lavas are the primary types of lava that form these volcanoes. Eruptions on the volcanoes often alternate between tephra and lava flows. Subduction zone volcanoes. Geologists often use the term stratovolcanoes to describe the mountains that form in subduction zones. The melting oceanic crust forms pools of molten rock in a magma chamber. The magma, molten rock, in the magma chamber is lighter than the volcano rocks that surround it. The magma works its way to the summit where it erupts as tephra or in thick lava flows.

art therapy definition
<P> Art therapy, sometimes called creative arts therapy or expressive arts therapy, encourages people to express and understand emotions through artistic expression and through the creative process. Art therapy is often one part of a psychiatric inpatient or outpatient treatment program, and can take place in individual or group therapy sessions. Group art therapy sessions often take place in hospital, clinic, shelter, and community program settings. <P> “Art as therapy” embodies the idea that art making is, in and of itself, therapeutic and that the creative process is a growth-producing experience. However, art as therapy is a pretty close match to many other non-therapy approaches, mainly in the realm of art teaching. 1) Art therapy is an interpersonal experience in which a therapist facilitates, guides, witnesses and responds to an individual’s art process and art expressions, based on best practices and current and emerging research. <P> Expressive art therapy is the use of creative arts as a form of therapy and is a fantastic field that has proven to work wonders in many people’s lives. It can help someone express themselves, explore their emotions, manage addictions, and improve their self-esteem. Art therapists are professionals trained in both art and therapy. They are knowledgeable about human development, psychological theories, clinical practice, spiritual, multicultural and artistic traditions, and the healing potential of art. <P> In the past, art therapy has been defined as a “mental health profession*,” but that does not continue to make good sense when research is trending in favor of art therapy in allied health and integrative (mind-body) medicine arenas. For me this dichotomy has always been a distraction from discovering art therapy’s real potential as a health-enhancing practice. And frankly this continuum of practice has not been able to convincingly establish a profession called art therapist because it confounds a unified vision for the field. <P> These are: 1) art as therapy; and 2) art psychotherapy. These two concepts are ubiquitous in art therapy literature and have become well-worn mantras describing the profession and guiding the way art therapists define themselves for the past 40 years in the US and despite the influence of the field of counseling. 1) Art therapy is an interpersonal experience in which a therapist facilitates, guides, witnesses and responds to an individual’s art process and art expressions, based on best practices and current and emerging research. <P> Definition: Art therapy is a form of expressive therapy that uses the creative process of making art to improve a person’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

It is practised by qualified, registered Art Therapists who work with children, young people, adults and the elderly. Clients who can use art therapy may have a wide range of difficulties, disabilities or diagnoses. It may focus on the creative art-making process itself as therapy or on the analysis of expression gained through an exchange of patient/therapist interaction. The psychoanalytic approach was one of the earliest forms of art psychotherapy. <P> Art therapy is a creative method of expression used as a therapeutic technique. Arts therapy originated in the fields of Art and Psychotherapy and may vary in definition. It may focus on the creative art-making process itself as therapy or on the analysis of expression gained through an exchange of patient/therapist interaction. The psychoanalytic approach was one of the earliest forms of art psychotherapy. <P> From The New Medicine. And from the AATA, the definition of the profession:
Art therapy is the therapeutic use of art making, within a professional relationship, by people who experience illness, trauma or challenges in living, and by people who seek personal development. It can be used for counseling by therapists, healing, treatment, rehabilitation, psychotherapy, and in the broad sense of the term, art therapy can be used to massage one’s inner-self in a way that may provide the individual with a deeper understanding of him or herself. <P> And from the AATA, the definition of the profession: Art therapy is the therapeutic use of art making, within a professional relationship, by people who experience illness, trauma or challenges in living, and by people who seek personal development.

what is gluten and where is it found
<P> Gluten is a plant protein found in cereal grains, particularly in wheat. So fruits, vegetables and animal foods such as dairy products, meat, poultry and fish in their natural state are all gluten-free as long as you don’t add anything like breading or sauces to them. <P> A gluten-free diet is a diet that excludes the protein gluten. Gluten is found in grains such as wheat, barley, rye, and a cross between wheat and rye called triticale. A gluten-free diet is primarily used to treat celiac disease. Gluten causes inflammation in the small intestines of people with <P> Gluten is found in wheat, rye, barley and any foods made with these grains. Avoiding wheat can be especially hard because this means you should avoid all wheat-based flours and ingredients. These include but are not limited to: 1 White Flour. 2 Whole Wheat Flour. 3 Durum Wheat. 4 Graham Flour. 5 Triticale. 6 Kamut. <P> Gluten is a general name for the proteins found in wheat (durum, emmer, spelt, farina, farro, KAMUT® khorasan wheat and einkorn), rye, barley and triticale. Gluten helps foods maintain their shape, acting as a glue that holds food together. <P> The gluten proteins are found in the mature seed of these cereal grasses, which is what we refer to as the grain. Close relatives of wheat, such as spelt, triticale, kamut, farro, and einkorn, also contain gluten and must be avoided on a gluten-free diet. <P> Since gluten is a storage protein found in cereal grass seeds, it's not found in the young, green grasses that sprout from these seeds. For this reason, wheatgrass and barley grass are technically gluten-free.

how do you find circumference of a circle
<P> If a circle has a diameter of 4, its circumference is 3.14*4=12.56 If you know the radius, the diameter is twice as large. Calculating the Circumference of a Circle. The circumference of a circle is the distance around the outside of the circle. It could be called the perimeter of the circle. How to find the circumference of a circle: The circumference of a circle can be found by multiplying pi (π = 3.14) by the dia <P> 1. Write down the formula for finding the circumference of a circle using the diameter. The formula is simply this: C = πd. In this equation, C represents the circumference of the circle, and d represents its diameter. That is to say, you can find the circumference of a circle just by multiplying the diameter by pi. Plugging π into your calculator will give you its numerical value, which is a closer approximation of 3.14. <P> The circumference (C) of a circle is its perimeter, or the distance around it. The area (A) of a circle is how much space the circle takes up. Both can be calculated using the radius or diameter of the circle and the value of pi. <P> To calculate the circumference of the circle we have to multiply 2 times the value of Pi times the value of the radius, 4. Therefore the circumference of this circle is 25.12. Now you know how to calculate the circumference of a circle using either the radius or the diameter. <P> The number is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. The value of is approximately 3.14159265358979323846...The diameter of a circle is twice the radius. Given the diameter or radius of a circle, we can find the circumference. <P> How to find the circumference of a circle: 1 The circumference of a circle can be found by multiplying pi (π = 3.14) by the diameter of the circle. 2 If a circle has a diameter of 4, its circumference is 3.14*4=12.56. 3 If you know the radius, the diameter is twice as large.

moral intensity definition
<P> An Investigation of the Components of Moral Intensity Bev Marshall Philip Dewe ABSTRACT. While there is considerable interest in the topic of business ethics, much of the research moves towards measuring components with a view to predicting ethical behaviour. This result is investigated further in the discussion. Another important result is that the components of moral intensity as theorised by Jones (1991) did not emerge in the rationale of the respondents. <P> US Sentencing Commission Guidelines for Organizations. Definition. First the offense is given an offense level (generally between 6 and 38). Each offense level has a base fine associated with it ranging from $5,000 to $72.5 million Next a judge gives the company a culpability score. <P> What is Moral Intensity. 1. The construct that captures the extent of an issue related to moral imperative in a situation (Jones, 1991). This construct will determine whether the issue faced by individuals in an organization includes the moral dilemma. <P> Moral Intensity Moral intensity relates to the issue itself and to every unique situation Shaub (1997). Consequently Jones (1991, p372) described moral intensity as being “a construct that captures the extent of issue-related moral imperative in a situation”. From the web site, Lev Lafeyette : Moral intensity is the degree that people see an issue as an ethical one. Influences on moral intensity include magnitude of consequences, social consequence, concentration of effect, temporal immediacy and proximity. The magnitude of consequences is the anticipated level of impact of the outcome of a given action <P> Show more usage examples... It was not a moral issue, but an ethical issue and required a lot of thought and planning to figure out a solution. 9 people found this helpful. You should always make sure you break down any ethical issue and be on the right side of the disagreement. 11 people found this helpful. When considering this problem, lawyers may do well to ignore the letter of the law and realize that it is, at its heart, an ethical issue <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. ethical issue intensity can be define as perceive relevance or importance of an ethical issue. it reflects the ethical sensitivity of the individual or group triggering the ethical decision process. It is not an ethical issue. The real issue is the federal governments point of view and each of the 50 States that form the United States of America.

what does gamine style mean
<P> How to Dress in a Gamine Style. The gamine style is sweet, childlike, gentle, innocent and adorably charming. Gamine is originally a French word that means waif or playful child. But since the time of Audrey Hepburn (the original gamine), it has been used to describe a slim, boyish, doe eyed girl with mischievous and innocent childlike appeal. In this article, you'll discover some ways to adapt the gamine style to your own needs. <P> Gamine Hairstyles. Gamine hairstyles are sleek and chic styles that are quickly emerging as a very popular choice among many women. The Gamine Haircut. This style originally emerged in the sixties and seventies as a style fitted for small framed individuals with sharp features. <P> In 1997 the publisher HarperCollins drew up a list of 101 words – one a year – that defined the years 1896 to 1997. Gamine was chosen for 1899, being described by Philip Howard in The Times as follows: An elfish young woman. Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday was the archetypal, unforgettable, adorable gamine. It was used in English from about the mid-19th century (for example, by William Makepeace Thackeray in 1840 in one of his Parisian sketches), but in the 20th century, came to be applied in its more modern sense. <P> Beano, TSM. If you haven’t heard of PSY or his internet sensation ‘Gangnam Style,’ you obviously have not been in-tune with anything related to pop-culture (not that that is a bad thing). According to an interview PSY did with NPR, Gangnam is a territory in Seoul, Korea. I describe it as noble at the daytime and going crazy at the night time. I compare ladies to the territory. So — noble at the daytime, going crazy at the night time — and the lyric says I am the right guy for the lady who is like that. <P> A gamine is a slim, often boyish, elegant, wide-eyed young woman who is, or is perceived to be, mischievous, teasing or sexually appealing. The word gamine is a French word, the feminine form of gamin, originally meaning urchin, waif or playful, naughty child. It was used in English from about the mid-19th century (for example, by William Makepeace Thackeray in 1840 in one of his Parisian sketches), but in the 20th century, came to be applied in its more modern sense. <P> Gamine has been used particularly of such women in the performing arts or world of fashion. In that context, the closest English word – of Anglo-Norman origin – is probably waif (although gamine is often seen as conveying an additional sense of style and chic). It was used in English from about the mid-19th century (for example, by William Makepeace Thackeray in 1840 in one of his Parisian sketches), but in the 20th century, came to be applied in its more modern sense. <P> Soft Gamine vs. Ingenue. One of the notable things about Kibbe’s system is that it lacks the Ingenue category. If you look at the quiz, A answers are Dramatic, B are Natural, C is Classic, E is Romantic, and mixed A and E is Gamine. But he does not mention Ingenue, nor what the D category means, at all. <P> Understand that a gamine is an innocent and childlike person. AS a gamine, you might want to keep it quite simple, yet quite romantic. However, this doesn't mean you can't make your outfits more boyish if you prefer to, because, after all, a gamine is a 'street urchin' and a 'girl of impish appeal'. But since the time of Audrey Hepburn (the original gamine), it has been used to describe a slim, boyish, doe eyed girl with mischievous and innocent childlike appeal. In this article, you'll discover some ways to adapt the gamine style to your own needs. <P> One of the notable things about Kibbe’s system is that it lacks the Ingenue category. If you look at the quiz, A answers are Dramatic, B are Natural, C is Classic, E is Romantic, and mixed A and E is Gamine. But he does not mention Ingenue, nor what the D category means, at all. The D answers correlate to the Ingenue answers for systems that do have this category. I think it’s important here to clarify the major difference between Soft Gamine and Ingenue, and that is the amount of yin. In McJimsey ‘s interpretation, the Ingenue is the polar opposite of Dramatic.
Urchin, waif or playful, naughty child.
what is the consultants role
<P> Making sure that you bear in mind that your role, as the consultant, is to identify, analyze and solve your clients’ problems, whatever they may be, and consistently doing so, will help to build your individual reputation.

formula for finding the surface area of a cylinder
<P> The entire formula for the surface area of a cylinder is 2 π r2 + 2 π r h. Surface Area of Cylinders. To find the surface area of a cylinder add the surface area of each end plus the surface area of the side. Each end is a circle so the surface area of each end is π * r 2, where r is the radius of the end. There are two ends so their combinded surface area is 2 π * r 2. <P> So, the formula for the lateral surface area of a cylinder is L. S. A. = 2 π rh. Example 1: Find the lateral surface area of a cylinder with a base radius of 3 inches and a height of 9 inches. L. S. A. = 2 π (3)(9) = 54 π inches 2. ≈ 169.64 inches 2. The general formula for the total surface area of a cylinder is T. S. A. = 2 π rh + 2 π r 2. Example 2: Find the total surface area of a cylinder with a base radius of 5 inches and a height of 7 inches. T. S. A. = 2 π (5)(7) + 2 π (5) 2 = 70 π + 50 π. <P> The surface area of our cylinder is the outside area. The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is 2 times pi times the radius times the height plus 2 times pi times the radius squared. To use this formula, we plug in our radius measurement and height measurement. We then evaluate to find our answer. <P> Our formula to find the surface area of our cylinder is 2 times pi times the radius times the height plus 2 times pi times the radius squared. This formula is actually the combination of two calculations. We first calculate the surface area of the curved part and then we add the two surface areas of our circles.
T. S. A. = 2 π rh + 2 π r 2.

what does metamucil do to stool
<P> In a constipated stool it will hold that water in (your stool enters the colon as a liquid as you dump a bunch of water into your food as you digest it) so it is less likely to become hard and dry and hard to pass. It is more of a stool normalizer than just a laxative. My story of beating IBS: My Story with IBS. It seemed to help prevent constipation, but it didn't really improve my regularity necessarily. But yesterday, I decided to take about 3 teaspoons with 8 ounces of water, and today, for the first time in like a couple of months, I finally had a complete bowel movement. <P> Yes,colored metamucil can change the color of your stool. You don't digest the coloring agent present in metamucil and it goes through, changing the color of your stool. It is very common for people to have color change of their stool when they take flavored/colored metamucil. It will get back to normal,once you stop taking it. Hope this helped. <P> metamucil. Metamucil is a fiber supplement made from psyllium. It is designed to add bulk to the stool and so help waste travel smoothly through the digestive tract. It may be marketed as a bulk laxative because it adds bulk to the stool. Psyllium, the main ingredient in Metamucil, is a soluble plant fiber. If you are gluten intolerant then it is worth noting that the Metamucil powder and capsules are gluten-free, but Metamucil wafers contain gluten (one of the ingredients is wheat flour). This went on for five days of me sticking with the Metamucil. At one point I considered going to hospital because the pain caused by gas was so severe! Finally in desperation I took a stimulant laxative-actually, one didn't do it. I had to take a second one the next day, and then the problem was finally resolved. <P> Yes,it is very common to have reddish colored stools when you take the metamucil of orange flavor. If you are having orange/red/pink colored stool after taking metamucil,it is normal.It is because of the coloring agent present in the metamucil which goes undigested & comes out as it is with the stool. It is very common for people to have color change of their stool when they take flavored/colored metamucil. It will get back to normal,once you stop taking it. Hope this helped. <P> It forms a gel in your gut. Look at what metamucil does in a cup of water. It gels up and swells. It will absorb water into a gel so it helps constipation because it will soften and help hard stools slide along. It helps diarrhea because it absorbs the excess water thickening it adding bulk to the stool. It seemed to help prevent constipation, but it didn't really improve my regularity necessarily.
