what is sugar crystals made of
|
<P> 1 Stir in the sugar, a teaspoonful at a time. 2 Keep adding sugar until it starts to accumulate at the bottom of the container and won't dissolve even with more stirring. 3 This means your sugar solution is saturated. 4 If you don't use a saturated solution, then your crystals won't grow quickly. <P> The white stuff we know as sugar is sucrose, a molecule composed of 12 atoms of carbon, 22 atoms of hydrogen, and 11 atoms of oxygen (C12H22O11). Like all compounds made from these three elements, sugar is a carbohydrate. Its found naturally in most plants, but especially in sugarcane and sugar beetshence their names. <P> The chemical elements that a crystal is made of are what tell the crystal what shape it will be. A crystal of salt is a different shape than a crystal of sugar (do the Salt vs. Sugar project to see for yourself!) because they are both formed from different elements. <P> It's easy to grow your own sugar crystals! Sugar crystals are also known as rock candy since the crystallized sucrose (table sugar) resembles rock crystals and because you can eat your finished product. You can grow beautiful clear sugar crystals with sugar and water or you can add food coloring to get colored crystals. It's simple, safe, and fun. <P> What a crystal is made of actually depends on what kind of crystal it is -- for example, salt, sugar, and snowflakes are actually formed out of different kinds of crystals! Snowflakes are made from crystals formed by frozen water. <P> It depends on what the crystals are being made from. Ice is a crystal made up of water (hydrogen and oxygen) Quartz is a crystal made up of silica and oxygen Py … rite (fools gold) is a crystal made from iron and sulfur.

how long should i rest between sets to build muscle
|
<P> How Long Should I Rest Between Exercises? You should rest about as long as you rested between sets of the previous exercise, which means if you rested 2 minutes between sets of your first exercise you should rest about 2 minutes before doing your first set of your NEXT exercise. Believe it or not, the amount of time that you rest between sets has an effect on your training results. Here are my recommendations for how long you should rest between sets based on the following THREE goals…. <P> Listen to your body and make your own judgement on how much time you should rest between sets. Depending on the exercise, a typical rest time usually falls between 2 - 6 minutes. Make sure you are near 100% strength for every single set that you start. Using this way of resting will go a long way for your overall muscle building results. You will build more muscle mass than you ever could before! He sets his stopwatch for another 2 minutes for his next set. This approach of resting in the gym is a big mistake if you want great muscle gains. But if you learn the best way to rest between sets in the gym, you WILL build more muscle mass. <P> none Comment author #28236 on How Long to Rest Between Sets by LeanLifters. When I do back to back, 5-8 reps, I rest for 1.5 minutes after the 2nd set, but when it’s back to back, 10+ reps, it’s more like 20-30 secs. The 5 sets should all be more weight than your 3 sets of 10, and will probably have more rest in between them. For example, you might only do 150 lbs. on a bench press for 3 sets of 10 reps, but 190 lbs. for 5 sets of 6 reps. If you do the math you end up doing 4,500 lbs. in the 3 sets vs. 5,700 lbs. <P> 1 The more intense an exercise is the more you should stay closer to the 2-3 minute rest range. 2 The less demanding the exercise is the more you should stay in the 1-2 minute rest range. 3 TYPICALLY THESE REST RANGES ARE UTILIZED BY THOSE LOOKING TO TONE AND BUILD MUSCLE WHILE TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT. Believe it or not, the amount of time that you rest between sets has an effect on your training results. Here are my recommendations for how long you should rest between sets based on the following THREE goals…. <P> Here you will learn how to properly rest between muscle building sets in the gym to build more muscle mass. Many people make the costly mistake of using a specific rest time between their sets. For example, after finishing a set they may wait for exactly 2 minutes until they start their next set. This approach of using timed rest periods is not the best way to go about it if you want to gain the most muscle mass that you can. He sets his stopwatch for another 2 minutes for his next set. This approach of resting in the gym is a big mistake if you want great muscle gains. But if you learn the best way to rest between sets in the gym, you WILL <P> 1 Resting 1-3 minutes between sets is probably ideal for you. 2 The higher your training intensity is for a given exercise and/or the more demanding it is on your body, the more you should stay nearer to the 2-3 minute range. 1 For Increasing Strength And Maximizing Muscular Power…. 2 Resting 2-5 minutes between sets is probably ideal for you. 3 The higher your training intensity is for a given exercise and/or the more demanding it is on your body, the more you should stay towards the higher end of that range. <P> For circuit workouts or higher-calorie-burning programs, keep your resting time between sets to 30 seconds or less. For alternating sets, however, you can bump that time up to 30-90 seconds. Strength gain: Time is on your side when you're training for pure strength, says Stankowski. In other words, the amount of time you rest between sets can have a major impact on how the exercise you're doing affects your body.. Rest too long and your workouts lose intensity; rest too little and you burn out too quickly. Luckily, we have expert advice on how to tailor your rest periods to any fitness goal. <P> UPGRADE. To build more muscle and finish your workout in less time, try cutting back on your rest periods by five to 10 seconds every week (don't increase the weight). For instance, if you rested 60 seconds between sets this week, rest only 50-55 seconds next week. In other words, the amount of time you rest between sets can have a major impact on how the exercise you're doing affects your body.. Rest too long and your workouts lose intensity; rest too little and you burn out too quickly. Luckily, we have expert advice on how to tailor your rest periods to any fitness goal. <P> 1 If you want increased muscular endurance or want the benefits of increased metabolic or circuit type training…You should rest 20-60 seconds between sets. 2 If the exercise being performed is more demanding on the body you should rest closer to the 60 sec range. Believe it or not, the amount of time that you rest between sets has an effect on your training results.

why is nuclear energy bad
|
<P> Nuclear energy has no place in a safe, clean, sustainable future. Nuclear energy is both expensive and dangerous. And just because nuclear pollution is invisible doesn’t mean it’s clean. Renewable energy is better for the environment, the economy, and doesn’t come with the risk of a nuclear meltdown. Greenpeace got its start protesting nuclear weapons testing back in 1971. We’ve been fighting against nuclear weapons and nuclear power ever since. High profile disasters in Chernobyl, Ukraine in 1986 and Fukushima, Japan in 2011 have raised public awareness of the dangers of nuclear power. <P> Nuclear power is neither good nor bad. The way nuclear power is produced (Safety) can be good or bad, though. Nuclear power can be generated by small power plants, creates … no air pollution, and is safe when done right. On one side, it's believed that nuclear energy is bad because of the potentially massive fallout associated with nuclear accidents. <P> Nuclear Energy. Nuclear energy is a rare form of energy. It is the energy stored in the center or the nucleus of an atom. After we bombard the nucleus into two parts, two different elements are formed along with the emission of high energy. The process generally followed is called fission. <P> Nuclear Energy’s True Costs. Nuclear energy isn’t just bad for the environment, it’s bad for our economy. Nuclear power plants are expensive to build, prompting Wall Street to call new nuclear a “bet the farm” risk. Every nuclear plant under construction in the U.S. is well behind schedule and at least $1 billion over budget. Greenpeace got its start protesting nuclear weapons testing back in 1971. We’ve been fighting against nuclear weapons and nuclear power ever since. High profile disasters in Chernobyl, Ukraine in 1986 and Fukushima, Japan in 2011 have raised public awareness of the dangers of nuclear power. <P> Nuclear power could cause a meltdown any day at any time which could cause many casualties and the radiation of the meltdown could also cause thyroid cancer in far places. Also the underground pipes have been leaking radioactive waste for many years and is contaminating the ground water at different sites. Report Post. The only harmful thing about nuclear energy is that the process of getting uranium pollutes the earth!!!! Uranium energy can be dangerous if the people working at the power plant aren't taught well enough to handle it. <P> Nuclear power is used by many nations to produce electricity. Nuclear power plants are put up for mechanical power of sea vessels. Nuclear power is useful to the needs of the people and the nations to operate but then there are also bad effects of nuclear power. Nuclear power is hazardous to the environment. The use of substances in nuclear plants such as uranium can be dangerous because of its radioactive characteristics. Once these substances flow into the water, there is a great danger of water poisoning which may damage the seawater creatures and marine species. It’s difficult to store nuclear power <P> Nuclear energy--- as in, nuclear power plants--- have quite a few bad effects. 1) Carbon Dioxide. Building and running nuclear power plants omits a lot of Carbon Dioxide int … o the air. (Too much Carbon Dioxide could lead to global warming) 2) Low-level Radiation. On one side, it's believed that nuclear energy is bad because of the potentially massive fallout associated with nuclear accidents. <P> Nuclear power generation and its usage are not found to be creating any problems regarding the global warming. Nuclear power is generated from the Uranium and Plutonium fission. The Uranium in nature consists of two isotopes as U-235 and U-238. U-235 is used for nuclear power generation and is unstable atom decay to give away some energized particles. The emitted particles are known to have drastic impact on the human body. Nuclear energy power generation will not stop our relying on oil supply from the Middle ‚East. There is an argument by the nuclear energy generating scientists that this energy will decrease our oil usage. <P> On the other hand, nuclear energy is very clean and produces a lot more energy when compared to a fossil fuel plant of the same size. The risks of an accident are small and get smaller as technology is allowed to advance. It's also argued that nuclear energy can allow the U.S. to reduce its dependence on foreign oil. On one side, it's believed that nuclear energy is bad because of the potentially massive fallout associated with nuclear accidents. <P> The nuclear energy industry is making the government officials to concentrate on the investment on the nuclear energy generation. The scientists say that nuclear energy will save us from economic and environmental problems. Nuclear energy power generation will not stop our relying on oil supply from the Middle ‚East. There is an argument by the nuclear energy generating scientists that this energy will decrease our oil usage.

But the top round (also called inside round, because it comes from the inside of the leg), is actually a good cut of meat for roasting, as long as it's done slowly at a low temperature. Cooking it this way ensures that it comes out medium rare, thus preserving what little tenderness the top round has to begin with. <P> Cut Description. 1 Separated from the knuckle and bottom round, the Inside Round is the inside portion of the round primal, with all bones, cartilages and exposed lymph glands removed. <P> A beef roast cut from the top round muscle, which is the inside muscle of the upper portion of the rear leg. It is one of the better cuts from the round primal in terms of flavor.

how fast can a broken arm heal
|
<P> 1 Most broken bones heal quicker when properly repositioned, compressed and immobilized. 2 Casts are made of a soft bandage and a hard covering (such as plaster of Paris). 3 They usually need to stay on for between 4-12 weeks, depending on which bone is broken and how badly. 2. Put some weight on it. In addition to some light movements in the joints surrounding your broken bone, putting some weight on it after a week or so can be beneficial — especially for weight-bearing bones of the legs and pelvis. <P> Introduction. A broken arm or wrist is usually caused by a fall onto an outstretched arm. It typically takes about six to eight weeks to heal in adults, and less time in children. Doctors refer to all breaks or cracks in bones as fractures. How a broken arm or wrist is treated. A broken arm or wrist is usually treated in a hospital accident and emergency department. The treatment differs depending on the severity of the injury. A doctor will give you or your child painkillers and fix a splint to the arm to secure it in position and prevent further damage. <P> Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: There's really no way you can get a broken bone bone heal faster. It depends on what bone you broke,where you broke it,how many places it broke,and the severity of the break on how long it takes to heal. I broke a little bone in my left wrist called the Scaphoid twice. It took mine 4 months to heal both times and it was hell being in the cast. If your arm's hurting,get an ice pack,a towel,something to do,some pain relievers,or the pain medicine they gave you <P> For most adult dogs or cats, broken bone healing time is 8 to 12 weeks. In puppies or kittens, broken bone healing time is 6 to 9 weeks. Complicated fractures can take as much as 16 weeks. Delayed Union and Non-Union Fractures. <P> You should find out how to heal a broken arm faster if you have suffered this type of injury. Listen to what your doctor tells you, and try not to overdo it during your recovery period. If you can take some time off of work to rest and recover, that can help you heal a broken arm faster. Things You May Need: 1 Physical therapy. 2 Bone stimulator. 3 Ask the doctor if they can refer you to a physical therapist. 1 See if the doctor or therapist will give you an arm immobilizer. 2 Rather than using a standard sling, an immobilizer keeps your arm secured against your body. 3 This can help you heal a broken arm faster, since you will not be able to move your arm accidentally. 4 Follow the physical therapist’s instructions. <P> The time for a broken collarbone to fully heal depends on the severity of the injury. In children, complete healing may take as little as three to six weeks. In adults, six to 16 weeks or more are often necessary for a collarbone to heal solidly. Unfortunately, during that time there is no way to completely immobilize a collarbone fracture to keep it from moving and, thus, speed healing, as can be done using a cast on other broken bones, such as a wrist, arm or leg. <P> 1 This device uses ultrasound to help heal a broken arm faster. 2 If the doctor agrees to permit you to use the device, make sure your insurance will cover the cost of the bone stimulator, since they can be expensive. 1 See if the doctor or therapist will give you an arm immobilizer. 2 Rather than using a standard sling, an immobilizer keeps your arm secured against your body. 3 This can help you heal a broken arm faster, since you will not be able to move your arm accidentally. 4 Follow the physical therapist’s instructions. <P> The length of time taken for healing depends on where the fracture is and how severe the break is. For example, a simple buckle fracture will need a plaster cast for 2 to 3 weeks and be almost completely healed in 4 weeks. Children heal in about half the time it takes an adult to heal from a similar injury.

what does opium do
|
<P> Dear Reader, Opium is a plant product derived from the sap inside of the opium poppy's seedpod. This poppy (papaver somniferum) grows in dry, warm climates, especially in the mountains stretching from Turkey through Central and South Asia all the way to Laos. It is increasingly being grown in South America, as well. <P> There are a wide range of effects that opium derivatives can have on the body including physical drug dependence, withdrawal symptoms and health problems. When opium is smoked, the drug causes a short-term high that includes relaxation, pain relief, reduced anxiety and impaired alertness and coordination. <P> As opium use progresses, the body becomes tolerant to the drug and the pain reduction qualities of this drug or its derivatives are not as profound. Feelings of pleasure and euphoria are ultimately replaced with feelings of desire or need to use more and more of the drug to produce similar euphoric effects. <P> Opium is a plant product derived from the sap inside of the opium poppy's seedpod. This poppy (papaver somniferum) grows in dry, warm climates, especially in the mountains stretching from Turkey through Central and South Asia all the way to Laos. <P> Opium (poppy tears, lachryma papaveris) is the dried latex obtained from the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum). Opium latex contains approximately 12% of the analgesic alkaloid morphine, which is processed chemically to produce heroin and other synthetic opioids for medicinal use and for the illegal drug trade. <P> The harmful effects that opium has on the body will depend largely on the method of opium use, the length of time that the drug is used and the individual person. If opium is refined to Morphine or Heroin and then it is injected, the dangers and harmful effects on the body can be dramatically increased. <P> Opium preparation is an opioid. An opioid is sometimes called a narcotic. Opium is derived from the seed pod of a poppy plant. It works by increasing smooth muscle tone and decreasing fluid secretions in the intestines. This slows the movement of bowel matter through <P> Using opium for a prolonged time or using opium excessively can lead to a tolerance of the common side effects of opium and the user may not feel as relaxed when the drug is used. In fact, over time, opium use can lead to heightened anxiety, weight loss, and mental deterioration.

what type of volcano is mauna loa
|
<P> The Mauna Loa Volcano is the largest volcano on the planet as it rises over 4 kilometers above the sea level but the 4 kilometers that you see on top is not even half the size of the volcano. The Mauna Loa Volcano is not only a big size; it is also one of the most active volcanoes in the world. Since the first documented eruption in 1843 there have been an additional 32 eruptions. <P> Mauna Loa, or Long Mountain in Hawaiian, is located on the island of Hawaii. It is pictured above rising 13,680 ft. (4,170 m) above sea level (this photo was taken from over Loihi seamount, some 30 km or so to the south). Since 1832, Mauna Loa has erupted 39 times; its last eruption was in 1984. The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory celebrated the 30th anniversary of Mauna Loa's last eruption (in 1984) on March 25, 2014, underscoring that it has been a realtively quite 3 decades at the world's largest active volcano. <P> Articles. Mauna Loa is the largest volcano on Earth with an estimated volume of 9,600 cubic miles (40,000 cubic kilometers). It makes half of the area of the Island of Hawaii. Mauna Loa began to form nearly a million years ago. There is a caldera, Mokuaweoweo, at the summit and rift zones extend to the northeast and southwest. Mauna Loa is in the shield-building stage and is one of the most active volcanoes on Earth, erupting 15 times since 1900. <P> Mauna Loa (which means long mountain in Hawaiian) is one of the world's great peaks. It's the largest active volcano, and one of the most energetic. Its dramatic bulk comprises half of the island of Hawaii (the Big island), which it shares with several fellow volcanoes. Mauna Loa is also one of the most active of the world's volcanoes. Its last major eruption was in 1984, and vulcanologists expect another blow. Around 98 percent of the peak is blanketed in lava flows under 10,000 years old. <P> At 1 million to 700,000 years of age, Mauna Loa is the second youngest of the five volcanoes on the island, making it the third youngest volcano in the Hawaiian – Emperor seamount chain, a chain of shield volcanoes and seamounts extending from Hawaii to the Kuril–Kamchatka Trench in Russia. It is an active shield volcano with relatively gentle slopes, with a volume estimated at approximately 18,000 cubic miles (75,000 km 3), although its peak is about 120 feet (37 m) lower than that of its neighbor, Mauna Kea. Lava eruptions from Mauna Loa are silica-poor and very fluid, and they tend to be non-explosive <P> Mauna Loa's most recent eruption occurred from March 24 to April 15, 1984. No recent eruptions of the volcano have caused fatalities, but eruptions in 1926 and 1950 destroyed villages, and the city of Hilo is partly built on lava flows from the late 19th century. It is an active shield volcano with relatively gentle slopes, with a volume estimated at approximately 18,000 cubic miles (75,000 km 3), although its peak is about 120 feet (37 m) lower than that of its neighbor, Mauna Kea. Lava eruptions from Mauna Loa are silica-poor and very fluid, and they tend to be non-explosive <P> Rising gradually to more than 4 km above sea level, Mauna Loa is the largest volcano on our planet. Its long submarine flanks descend to the sea floor an additional 5 km, and the sea floor in turn is depressed by Mauna Loa's great mass another 8 km. This makes the volcano's summit about 17 km (56,000 ft) above its base! <P> Mauna Loa, a shield volcano, is not a super volcano. A super volcano is a volcano marked by the inordinately massive nature of its eruption. There are a number of candid … ates for the super volcano list made up of areas in the U.S. (and around the world), and Hawaii is not on it. <P> The world’s largest volcano, Mauna Loa in Hawaii, is a shield volcano. Mauna Loa is about 55,770 feet (17,000 meters) from its base beneath the ocean to the summit, which is 13,681 feet (4,170 meters) above sea level. It is also one of the Earth’s most active volcanoes and is carefully monitored.

It may also be defined as the extinction of lust, hatred and ignorance, The whole world is in flames, says the Buddha. <P> nir·va·na. n. 1. often Nirvana. a. Buddhism A state in which the mind, enlightened as to the illusory nature of the self, transcends all suffering and attains peace. b. Hinduism A state in which the soul, having relinquished individual attachments and recognized its identity with Brahman, escapes samsara. 2. <P> NOTE -- Here is a Zen master's definition of Nirvana that is in agreement with Ajaan Thanissaro (a Theravadan monk): Dainin Katagiri: The original meaning of this term is to blow out or extinguish because of lack of fuel (i.e., desire). <P> Nibbana Nibbana is the highest bliss, a supramundane state of eternal happiness.

carbohydrates in food

<P> Low-carb diets. Low-carbohydrate (low-carb) diets usually involve cutting out most starchy foods. These diets tend to be high in fat, and eating a high-fat diet (especially saturated fat from foods such as meat, cheese and butter) could increase your risk of heart disease. Starchy foods such as potatoes, bread, cereals, rice and pasta should make up about a third of the food you eat, as shown by the eatwell plate. Where you can, choose wholegrain varieties, or eat potatoes with their skins on for more fibre. Starch is the most common form of carbohydrate in our diet. <P> Carbohydrates provide your body with glucose it needs to function properly. Two types of carbohydrates exist: complex carbohydrates and simple carbohydrates. Complex carbohydrates take time to break down into glucose. Foods rich in complex carbohydrates and fiber are called good carbohydrates. Simple carbohydrates include sugars found in foods such as fruits and milk products and sugars added during food processing. Foods rich in white flour and added sugars are called bad carbohydrates <P> Carbohydrates from food and drinks provide energy for your daily activities. In general, about 47-50% of your daily daily calories intake should be in the form of carbohydrates. The amount of carbohydrates that your body needs in a day depends on your size, age, activities level and many other factors. <P> Carbs in Natural Foods. Sugar-carbs are found in a range of natural food, including milk (containing lactose, or milk sugar), fruits (containing fructose, or fruit sugar) and sugar beet (containing sucrose). Starch-carbs are found in all cereal grains, as well as roots and tubers. Starchy foods include: bread, pasta, rice, noodles, couscous, tapioca, potatoes, sweet potatoes and yams. Dietary fiber carbohydrates (soluble and insoluble fiber) are found in most plant foods, like fruits and vegetables, legumes and whole grain cereals. <P> Understanding Carbohydrates.

And eating a diet high in bad carbohydrate foods, as most everyone does, increases your risk of heart disease, stroke, arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes and obesity. Bad carbs are carbohydrate foods that have been highly refined and processed, removing most of the nutritional value and fiber. They're generally loaded with high-calorie fats, sweeteners, preservatives and other unhealthy additives. <P> by Anne Harding. Carbohydrates are sugar-based molecules found in many foods, from cookies to cantaloupes. If you have diabetes, planning your carb intakeand sticking to the planis critical to keep blood sugar on an even keel and to cut your risk of diabetes-related problems like heart disease and stroke. Whether or not you have diabetes, you should aim to get about half your calories from complex carbohydrates (which are high in fiber), 20-25% from protein, and no more than 30% from fat, says Lalita Kaul, PhD, RD, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association.

how long do ducks lay eggs
|
<P> Mallards lay between 8-12 eggs and muscovies lay between 12-18 eggs. The egg laying process lasts for an equal number of days (it takes 12 days to lay 12 eggs). Once egg laying is complete, she will leave the male (who will wait at the water for her) and she will begin incubation on the nest fulltime. <P> Most ducks start laying between 4 to six months if a drake is present. If not they may take longer however the eggs will not hatch. When a drake is not present these eggs should b gathered daily and refridgerated for eating. If a drake is present each duck will lay between 10 to 15 eggs in about a week. <P> Eggs from common ducks like Pekins require 28 days to hatch. Eggs from Muscovy ducks hatch in about 35 days after setting. When larger numbers of duck eggs are to be hatched, large commercial incubators (setters) and hatchers are normally used. Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Duck eggs need to be incubated for 28 days. That is 28 days from the time she starts sitting on them. It may take her a couple of weeks to lay enough eggs for her to start sitting. When she feels that her clutch (group of eggs) is the right size, she will start sitting. Wait for 28 days <P> I know chickens for egg laying, that most lay best within the first year to 18 months and then slow down after that. If varies per breed, etc. Muscovies aren't the most prolific layers around, perhaps 90 to 100 eggs a year or so. We only keep our hens for around three years because it seems they lose 10 to 20% of their production for every year of life. They also go broody in a heartbeat, which interferes with egg production. <P> Ducks. For information on raising ducklings, go to Raising Ducklings and Goslings. Duck eggs take 28-30 days to hatch, except for Muscovy eggs, which take 35 days. If you find a wild duck's nest on your property and don't see the mother on the eggs, don't necessarily worry. Ducks lay an egg every day or two until they have a full clutch (usually 8 to 15); only then will the mother start to sit on them. It takes the eggs 28 days to hatch from when she starts sitting all the time. <P> When mallard ducks laying eggs how long does it take for them to hatch? incubated for 27-28 days to hatching with 50-60 days to fledging so 50-60 days i guess. At best, this is an ill formed answer, as it is not accurate. Duck eggs hatch dependi … ng on the species of duck. Mallard ducks can hatch as early as 25 days, they do not follow the 28 scenario. They could also take as long as 35 days. Everything depends on the species, the incubator temp and its humidity. <P> Since Muscovy are genetically disimilar to other domestic waterfowl, many folks believe that they're more of a goose than a duck. For instance, they eat grass, as do geese, have a similarly long egg incubation period of 35 days (compared with 28 days for ducks), and they don't quack. This is a good trait since they are quiet ducks. The male has a low breathy call, and the female a quiet trilling coo. <P> Muscovy will lay up to 180 eggs a year and hatch about four sets of ducklings if they get lots of high protein feed. Muscovy ducks are great mothers and do a good job raising their young. Muscovy take longer to hatch than other poultry... an egg takes 33 to 35 days to hatch. A chicken, for example, hatches in 21 days. Muscovy meat is one of the healthiest meats on the market today, being 98% or greater fat free. For instance, they eat grass, as do geese, have a similarly long egg incubation period of 35 days (compared with 28 days for ducks), and they don't quack. This is a good trait since they are quiet ducks. The male has a low breathy call, and the female a quiet trilling coo. <P> My ducks lay 1 egg per day, everyday. I think there was only one month in which they didn't lay any eggs. Ducks don't normally sit on their nest of eggs till they have a full clutch(which is approx. 12-15 eggs).

It lasts for an equal number of days (it takes 12 days to lay 12 eggs).

<P> Cultural Bias is interpreting and judging perceived through someone's own culture. In other words, a person may be biased towards someone else because they do not fit into that persons own culture, or they may be different.

what is localized in the somatic sensory area of the brain
|
<P> The sensory nervous system is a part of the nervous system responsible for processing sensory information. A sensory system consists of sensory receptors, neural pathways, and parts of the brain involved in sensory perception. Commonly recognized sensory systems are those for vision, auditory (hearing), somatic sensation (touch), gustatory (taste), olfaction (smell) and vestibular (balance/movement). <P> The sensory information (touch, pain, temperature etc.,) is then conveyed to the central nervous system by afferent neurons. There are a number of different types of afferent neurons that vary in their size, structure and properties. The somatosensory system is spread through all major parts of a mammal 's body (and other vertebrates). It consists both of sensory receptors and sensory (afferent) neurons in the periphery (skin, muscle and organs for example), to deeper neurons within the central nervous system. <P> The motor cortex is the region of the cerebral cortex involved in the planning, control, and execution of voluntary movements. Other brain regions outside the cerebral cortex are also of great importance to motor function, most notably the cerebellum, the basal ganglia, pedunculopontine nucleus and the red nucleus, as well as other subcortical motor nuclei. <P> Processing primarily occurs in the primary somatosensory area in the parietal lobe of the cerebral cortex: information is sent from the receptors via sensory nerves, through tracts in the spinal cord and finally into the brain. The somatosensory system is spread through all major parts of a mammal 's body (and other vertebrates). It consists both of sensory receptors and sensory (afferent) neurons in the periphery (skin, muscle and organs for example), to deeper neurons within the central nervous system. <P> The primary somatosensory area in the human cortex (also called primary somatic sensory cortex or SI) is located in the postcentral gyrus of the parietal lobe and makes up four distinct fields or regions known as Brodmann areas 3a, 3b, 1, and 2. The somatosensory system is spread through all major parts of a mammal 's body (and other vertebrates).

functional testing definition
|
<P> Functional testing is a quality assurance (QA) process and a type of black box testing that bases its test cases on the specifications of the software component under test. Functional testing usually describes what the system does. Functional testing does not imply that you are testing a function (method) of your module or class. Functional testing tests a slice of functionality of the whole system. Functional testing differs from system testing in that functional testing verifies a program by checking it against ... design document(s) or specification(s), while system testing validate[s] a program by checking it against the published user or system requirements (Kaner, Falk, Nguyen 1999, p. 52) <P> Essentially non-functional testing lets us measure and compare the results of testing the non-functional attributes of software systems, for example, by testing the application or system against the client’s requirement or a performance requirement. For example, in functional testing it might be revealed that the function of inputting data into a set of cells in a database works, however, usability testing (a part of Non Functional Testing) reveals that saving a version of the document requires 2 minutes, which will (or should) be judged as too long to wait. <P> Functional testing is concerned only with the functional requirements of a system or subsystem and covers how well (if at all) the system executes its functions. These include any user commands, data manipulation, searches and business processes, user screens, and integrations. For example, in functional testing it might be revealed that the function of inputting data into a set of cells in a database works, however, usability testing (a part of Non Functional Testing) reveals that saving a version of the document requires 2 minutes, which will (or should) be judged as too long to wait. <P> Functional Testing is a type of software testing whereby the system is tested against the functional requirements/specifications. ELABORATION. Typically, functional testing involves the following steps: 1 Identify functions that the software is expected to perform. 2 Create input data based on the function’s specifications. 3 Determine the output based on the function’s specifications. 4 Execute the test case <P> Functional testing is to testing the functionality of the software application under test. Basically, it is to check the basic functionality mentioned in the functional specification document. Also check whether software application is meeting the user expectations. We can also say that checking the behavior of the software application against test specification. This type of testing is mandatory and irrespective of what type of application this should be exercised. <P> Role of functional testing is to validating the behavior of an application. Functional testing is more important because it always verifies that your system is fixed for release. The functional tests define your working system in a useful manner. Functional testing is executed using the functional specifications given by the client or by the design specifications according to use cases given by the design team. <P> Definition FUNCTIONAL TESTING Evaluation of programs based on functional requirements to ensure the program works as it was specified to do. Definition Definition A functional test case validates the solution as defined by the requirements specification or detailed technical specification of the component. <P> DEFINITION.

why does magma form at divergent boundaries
|
<P> A volcano forms at a convergent boundary when two plates (At least one being Oceanic) collide. Then the less dense Oceanic plate sinks/slides under the other. This process is … called subduction. From here the Oceanic plate melts in the mantle. <P> As the plates separate along the boundary, the block between the faults cracks and drops down into the soft, plastic interior (the asthenosphere). The sinking of the block forms a central valley called a rift. Magma (liquid rock) seeps upward to fill the cracks. In this way, new crust is formed along the boundary. Earthquakes occur along the faults, and volcanoes form where the magma reaches the surface. Where a divergent boundary crosses the land, the rift valleys which form are typically 30 to 50 kilometers wide. Examples include th e East Africa rift in Kenya and Ethiopia, and the Rio Grande rift in New Mexico. <P> Effects that are found at a divergent boundary between oceanic plates include: a submarine mountain range such as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge; volcanic activity in the form of fissure eruptions; shallow earthquake activity; creation of new seafloor and a widening ocean basin. <P> In plate tectonics, a divergent boundary or divergent plate boundary (also known as a constructive boundary or an extensional boundary) is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other. Divergent boundaries within continents initially produce rifts which eventually become rift valleys. Most active divergent plate boundaries occur between oceanic plates and exist as mid-oceanic ridges. <P> The first sort of plate boundary is called a divergent boundary, or spreading center. At these boundaries, two plates move away from one another. As the two move apart, mid-oc … ean ridges are created as magma from the mantle up wells through a crack in the oceanic crust and cools. Friction between these plates causes heat that … creates magmas. At a divergent boundary upwelling mantle (athenosphere) decompresses due to reduced pressures, allowing magma to form. This magma is extruded onto the seafloor as pillow basalts, and beneath the seafloors as massive gabbros and sheeted (gabbro) dikes. <P> 1 Pressure decrease-this is a very important mechanism at divergent boundaries. 2 Addition of water-this is a very important mechanism at convergent boundaries. 3 Partial melting always produces a magma that is less mafic than the parent rock. 1 These are the elements that make up the rock forming silicate minerals. 2 Volatiles are substances, dissolved in the magma, which don't go into minerals as the magma solidifies. 3 They are released in the form of liquids or gasses. <P> The process of magma formation is different at each type of plate boundary, where the tectonic setting is unique. Therefore, the composition of magma differs in each of these settings. As a result, tectonic settings determine the types of volcanoes that form and the types of eruptions that take place. Volcanoes at Divergent Boundaries At divergent boundaries, plates move away from each other. What You Will Learn • Nonexplosive eruptions of basaltic magma occur at divergent boundaries. • Shield volcanoes that form from enormous volumes of basaltic magma occur at hot spots. • Explosive eruptions of silica-rich magma occur at con <P> Magma rises into and through the other plate, solidifying into new crust. Magma formed from melting plates solidifies into granite, a light colored, low-density rock that makes up the continents. Thus at convergent boundaries, continental crust, made of granite, is created, and oceanic crust is destroyed. Two plates sliding past each other forms a transform plate boundary. Natural or human-made structures that cross a transform boundary are offset—split into pieces and carried in opposite directions. <P> As the plates move away from each other at divergent boundaries, the lithosphere becomes thinner. A set of deep cracks form in rift zone. It is formed by the magma fro … m magma chambers rising at the rifts in the sea floor. Cooling and hardening then occurs. Friction between these plates causes heat that … creates magmas. At a divergent boundary upwelling mantle (athenosphere) decompresses due to reduced pressures, allowing magma to form. This magma is extruded onto the seafloor as pillow basalts, and beneath the seafloors as massive gabbros and sheeted (gabbro) dikes.

what is gilead
|
<P> Gilead expanded its move into respiratory therapeutics in 2007 by entering into a licensing agreement with Parion for an epithelial sodium channel inhibitor for the treatment of pulmonary diseases, including cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and bronchiectasis. In 2004, Gilead launched Truvada, a fixed-dose combination of tenofovir and emtricitabine. In November 2005, George W. Bush urged Congress to pass $7.1 billion in emergency funding to prepare for the possible bird flu pandemic, of which $1 billion is solely dedicated to the purchase, and distribution of Tamiflu. <P> Mount Gilead--literally, Mount of the Gilead--may refer to some particular height which we have now no means of identifying (Genesis 31:23). The name Jebel Jil`ad is still, indeed, applied to a mountain South of Nahr ez-Zerqa and North of es-Salt; but this does not meet the necessities of the passage as it stands. The name Gilead is sometimes used to denote the whole country East of the Jordan (Genesis 37:25; Joshua 22:9; 2 Samuel 2:9, etc.). Again, along with Bashan, it indicates the land East of Jordan, as distinguished from the Moab plateau (Deuteronomy 3:10; Joshua 13:11; 2 Kings 10:33). <P> Gilead is later mentioned as the homeplace of the prophet Elijah. King Tiglath-pileser III of Assyria says he established the province of Gal'azu (Gilead). Gilead (Arabic: جلعاد Ǧalʻād ) is also used to refer to the mountainous land extending north and south of Jabbok. It is used more generally for the entire region east of the Jordan River. From its mountainous character, it is called the mount of Gilead (Genesis 31:25). It is called also the land of Gilead (Numbers 32:1), and sometimes simply Gilead (Psalms 60:9; Genesis 37:25). As a whole, it included the tribal territories of Gad, Reuben, and the eastern half of Manasseh (Deut 3:13; Num 32:40). <P> From its mountainous character it is called the mount of Gilead (Genesis 31:25). It is called also the land of Gilead (Numbers 32:1), and sometimes simply Gilead (Psalms 60:7; Genesis 37:25). It comprised the possessions of the tribes of Gad and Reuben and the south part of Manasseh (Deuteronomy 3:13; Numbers 32:40). The name Gilead is sometimes used to denote the whole country East of the Jordan (Genesis 37:25; Joshua 22:9; 2 Samuel 2:9, etc.). Again, along with Bashan, it indicates the land East of Jordan, as distinguished from the Moab plateau (Deuteronomy 3:10; Joshua 13:11; 2 Kings 10:33). <P> There are quite a few Gileads mentioned in the Bible: 1 Probably the most familiar Gilead is the mountainous area east of the Jordan, predominantly between the rivers Arnon and Jabbok but also applied to a larger area (Judges 20:1, 10:4). 1 Probably the most familiar Gilead is the mountainous area east of the Jordan, predominantly between the rivers Arnon and Jabbok but also applied to a larger area (Judges 20:1, 10:4). <P> Question: What is the balm of Gilead?. Answer: A balm is an aromatic, medicinal substance derived from plants. Gilead was an area east of the Jordan River, well known for its spices and ointments. The balm of Gilead was, therefore, a high-quality ointment with healing properties. The balm was made from resin taken from a flowering plant in the Middle East, although the exact species is unknown. It was also called the balsam of Mecca. <P> Profile. Gilead Sciences, Inc. is a research-based biopharmaceutical company that discovers, develops, and commercializes therapeutics to advance the care of patients suffering from life-threatening diseases. <P> In 1990, Gilead entered into a collaborative research agreement with Glaxo for the research and development of genetic code blockers, also known as antisense. This collaboration was terminated in 1998, and Gilead's antisense intellectual property portfolio was sold to Isis Pharmaceuticals. In 2004, Gilead launched Truvada, a fixed-dose combination of tenofovir and emtricitabine. In November 2005, George W.

why does skeletal muscle appear striated or striped
|
<P> Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Sarcomeres The sarcomeres are what give skeletal and cardiac muscles their striated appearance. A sarcomere is defined as the segment between two neighbouring Z-lines (or Z-discs, or Z bodies). <P> Cardiac muscle. Cardiac muscle tissue, like skeletal muscle tissue, looks striated or striped. The bundles are branched, like a tree, but connected at both ends. Unlike skeletal muscle tissue, the contraction of cardiac muscle tissue is usually not under conscious control, so it is called involuntary. Skeletal muscle looks striped or striated – the fibres contain alternating light and dark bands (striations) like horizontal stripes on a rugby shirt. In skeletal muscle, the fibres are packed into regular parallel bundles <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. 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 <P> 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. 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. Skeletal muscle is made up of individual muscle cells or myocytes, known as muscle fibers. <P> A striated muscle is a muscle composed of thousands of units known as sarcomeres. Each sarcomere is composed of distinct bands of different material which give the muscle a striped or striated appearance when it is viewed at a high level of magnification. Skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle are types of striated muscle. Skeletal muscles, a type of striated muscle, are voluntary muscles that allow for the movement of bones and joints. Thousands of sarcomeres form striated muscles. View slideshow of images above. <P> These paired striations on skeletal muscles are actually bands of sarcomeres that contract and/or relax during movement. In its simplest explanation, the striations on skeletal muscle are necessary for the muscle’s essential functioning in movement and locomotion. So the striations on skeletal muscles actually perform a vital function for limb and/or joint movements. The bands of stripes have specific tasks to ensure that movement occurs smoothly and as directed by the person involved. But striations are not exclusive to skeletal muscles. The muscles of the heart also have similar striations or bands of sarcomeres. The major difference is that cardiac muscles work automatically or involuntarily without the person wanting to do so, while skeletal muscles are voluntarily activated <P> The A and I bands repeat along the length of the muscle fibers to create the striations visible under the light microscope. 1 Sarcomeres repeat along skeletal and cardiac fibers. 2 Components between adjacent Z-lines comprise the sarcomere. 3 Sarcomeres are considered the functional units of striated muscles. 1 Sarcomeres repeat along skeletal and cardiac fibers. 2 Components between adjacent Z-lines comprise the sarcomere. 3 Sarcomeres are considered the functional units of striated muscles. 4 I Bands are lighter areas of non-overlap between actin and myosin that contain the Z-lines. <P> Answers. Best Answer: Seen from the side under the microscope, skeletal muscle fibers show a pattern of cross banding, which gives rise to the other name: striated muscle. Stria simply means-Any of a number of tiny parallel grooves such as: the scratches left by a glacier on rocks or the streaks or ridges in muscle tissue.

what is hypertension
|
<P> Hypertension is classified as either primary (essential) hypertension or secondary hypertension. About 90–95% of cases are categorized as primary hypertension, defined as high blood pressure with no obvious underlying cause. Kidney disease is the most common secondary cause of hypertension. Hypertension can also be caused by endocrine conditions, such as Cushing's syndrome, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, acromegaly, Conn's syndrome or hyperaldosteronism, hyperparathyroidism and pheochromocytoma. <P> Hypertension is present if the blood pressure is persistently at or above 140/90 mmHg for most adults; different numbers apply to children. Kidney disease is the most common secondary cause of hypertension. Hypertension can also be caused by endocrine conditions, such as Cushing's syndrome, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, acromegaly, Conn's syndrome or hyperaldosteronism, hyperparathyroidism and pheochromocytoma. <P> Hypertension (HTN or HT), also known as high blood pressure or arterial hypertension, is a chronic medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated. Kidney disease is the most common secondary cause of hypertension. Hypertension can also be caused by endocrine conditions, such as Cushing's syndrome, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, acromegaly, Conn's syndrome or hyperaldosteronism, hyperparathyroidism and pheochromocytoma. <P> High blood pressure is a common condition in which the long-term force of the blood against your artery walls is high enough that it may eventually cause health problems, such as heart disease. Blood pressure is determined both by the amount of blood your heart pumps and the amount of resistance to blood flow in your arteries. The more blood your heart pumps and the narrower your arteries, the higher your blood pressure. <P> High blood pressure, sometimes called hypertension, happens when this force is too high. Health care workers check blood pressure readings the same way for children, teens, and adults. They use a gauge, stethoscope or electronic sensor, and a blood pressure cuff. <P> Hypertension Overview. High blood pressure or hypertension increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. Hypertension risk factors include obesity, drinking too much alcohol, smoking, and family history. Beta-blockers are a common treatment for hypertension. Symptoms of High Blood Pressure. One of the most dangerous aspects of hypertension is that you may not know that you have it. In fact, nearly one-third of people who have high blood pressure don't know it. <P> Hypertension is serious because people with the condition have a higher risk for heart disease and other medical problems than people with normal blood pressure. Serious complications can be avoided by getting regular blood pressure checks and treating hypertension as soon as it is diagnosed. When a person has hypertension caused by another medical condition, it is called secondary hypertension. Secondary hypertension can be caused by a number of different illnesses. Many people with kidney disorders have secondary hypertension. The kidneys regulate the balance of salt and water in the body. <P> High blood pressure is a common and dangerous condition. Having high blood pressure means the pressure of the blood in your blood vessels is higher than it should be. But you can take steps to control your blood pressure and lower your risk of heart disease and stroke <P> 1 Hypertension is a blood pressure higher than 140 over 90 mmHg (millimeters of mercury). 2 One or both readings can be high, either the first, systolic reading (the pressure as the heart pumps blood around the body) or the diastolic one (as the heart relaxes and refills with blood). 1 Hypertension itself does not cause symptoms but in the long-term leads to complications caused by narrowing of blood vessels. 2 Doctors diagnose high blood pressure over a number of visits using a sphygmomanometer, which involves applying an inflatable cuff to the upper arm. <P> High blood pressure (hypertension) is defined as high pressure (tension) in the arteries, which are the vessels that carry blood from the heart to the rest of the body. Blood pressure readings are given as two numbers. Normal blood pressure is below 120/80; blood pressure between 120/80 and 139/89 is called pre-hypertension , and a blood pressure of 140/90 or above is considered high while a systolic blood pressure of about 90 to 100 is considered low blood pressure.

what category does insulin aspart belong in
|
<P> BRAND NAME: various. DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Insulin is a naturally-occurring hormone secreted by the pancreas. Insulin is required by the cells of the body in order for them to remove and use glucose from the blood. Cells use glucose to produce energy that they need to carry out their functions. People with diabetes mellitus have a reduced ability to take up and use glucose from the blood, and, as a result, the glucose level in the blood rises. In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas cannot produce enough insulin. <P> Therefore, insulin therapy is needed. In type 2 diabetes, patients produce insulin, but cells throughout the body do not respond normally to the insulin. Nevertheless, insulin also may be used in type 2 diabetes to overcome the resistance of the cells to insulin. People with diabetes mellitus have a reduced ability to take up and use glucose from the blood, and, as a result, the glucose level in the blood rises. In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas cannot produce enough insulin. <P> NovoLog Mix 70/30 (insulin aspart protamine and insulin aspart (rdna origin)) should not be mixed with any other insulin product. NovoLog Mix 70/30 (insulin aspart protamine and insulin aspart (rdna origin)) should not be used intravenously. NovoLog Mix 70/30 (insulin aspart protamine and insulin aspart (rdna origin)) should not be used in insulin infusion pumps. Glucose monitoring is recommended for all patients with diabetes. Any change of insulin dose should be made cautiously and only under medical supervision. <P> A: Novolog 70/30 (insulin aspart/insulin aspart protamine) is a fast-acting medication that begins to work very quickly. After taking Novolog 70/30, you should eat a meal right away. Waiting too long to eat could result in dangerous hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). It's a short-acting, manufactured version of human insulin that lowers sugars in the blood. The medication works by replacing insulin that's normally produced by the body, helping move sugar from the blood into other areas of the body, and stopping the liver from producing more sugar. <P> In people with type 2 diabetes, NovoLog may be used with another type of insulin or with oral diabetes medicines. Insulin aspart was approved by the FDA in the year 2000 and is manufactured by Novo Nordisk. It's a short-acting, manufactured version of human insulin that lowers sugars in the blood. The medication works by replacing insulin that's normally produced by the body, helping move sugar from the blood into other areas of the body, and stopping the liver from producing more sugar. <P> Short-acting insulin (regular).

If the insulin mix that your regimen calls for isn't available as a pre-mix, you'll have to do the mixing yourself because you can't adjust the dosage of one of the insulins in a pre-mix without also adjusting the dosage of the other. <P> Insulin aspart is a fast-acting form of insulin that works by lowering levels of glucose (sugar) in the blood. Insulin aspart is used to treat type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes in adults and children who are at least 2 years old. Insulin aspart is usually given together with another long-acting insulin. Choose a different place in your injection skin area each time you use this medication. Do not inject into the same place two times in a row. If you use this medicine with an insulin pump, do not mix or dilute insulin aspart with any other insulin. Infusion pump tubing, catheters, and the needle location on your skin should be changed every 48 hours.

hierarchies psychology definition
|
<P> In a ' branching hierarchy' , one or more objects has a degree of 2 or more (and therefore the maximum degree is 2 or higher). For many people, the word hierarchy automatically evokes an image of a branching hierarchy. Two types of containment hierarchies are the subsumptive containment hierarchy and the compositional containment hierarchy. A subsumptive hierarchy subsumes its children, and a compositional hierarchy is composed of its children. <P> Social dominance theory (SDT) is a theory of intergroup relations that focuses on the maintenance and stability of group-based social hierarchies. This means that these hierarchies are based on (1) age (i.e., adults have more power and higher status than children), (2) gender (i.e., men have more power and higher status than women), and (3) arbitrary-set, which are group-based hierarchies that are culturally defined and do not necessarily exist in all societies. <P> A hierarchy (from the Greek ἱεραρχία hierarchia, rule of a high priest, from ἱεράρχης hierarkhes, leader of sacred rites) is an arrangement of items (objects, names, values, categories, etc.) in which the items are represented as being above, below, or at the same level as one another. Two types of containment hierarchies are the subsumptive containment hierarchy and the compositional containment hierarchy. A subsumptive hierarchy subsumes its children, and a compositional hierarchy is composed of its children. <P> A hierarchy (in Greek: often used in Geographic studies ἱεραρχία, it is derived from ἱερός -hieros, sacred, and ἄρχω -arkho, rule) is a system of ranking and organizing things or people, where each element of the system (except for the top element) is subordinate to a single other element. Most evolutionary biologists assert a hierarchy extending from the level of the specimen (an individual living organism -- say, a single newt), to the species of which it is a member (perhaps the Eastern Newt), outward to further successive levels of genus, family, order, class, phylum, and kingdom. <P> A subsumptive containment hierarchy is a classification of objects from the general to the specific. Other names for this type of hierarchy are taxonomic hierarchy and IS-A hierarchy. The last term describes the relationship between each level—a lower-level object is a member of the higher class. Two types of containment hierarchies are the subsumptive containment hierarchy and the compositional containment hierarchy. A subsumptive hierarchy subsumes its children, and a compositional hierarchy is composed of its children. <P> 1 Concept hierarchies, even those that start with the same large concept, may differ from person to person. 2 Their classification, especially if based on preference, may be different from yours. 3 Think of it like a pyramid. 4 The bottom is more broad so the subject would be vague at first. <P> ANXIETY HIERARCHY: An anxiety hierarchy is constructed for a given individual for a given anxiety disorder with the intention of exposing him or her to the earlier items first, then the later items.. <P> A hierarchical organization is an organization structured in a way such that every entity in the organization, except one, is subordinate to a single other entity. This is the dominant mode of organization among large organizations; most corporations, governments, and organized religions are hierarchical organizations. <P> The only direct links in a hierarchy, insofar as they are hierarchical, are to one's immediate superior or to one of one's subordinates, although a system that is largely hierarchical can also incorporate alternative hierarchies. Two types of containment hierarchies are the subsumptive containment hierarchy and the compositional containment hierarchy. A subsumptive hierarchy subsumes its children, and a compositional hierarchy is composed of its children. <P> n. in the study of of behavior, refers to a ranking of possible behavioral responses based on the relative probablity that each of them will be elicited from a person. As a result, more-probable behaviors rank higher than those which are less-probable.

what happens if you put foil in a microwave
|
<P> But instead of reflecting an image, it reflects microwaves. If you were to put food in a heavy metal pan and put it in the microwave, it wouldn't cook. The pan would shield the food from the microwaves, so the food would never heat up. Other metals are a no-no in the microwave, too. Tim Flach/Riser/ Getty Images. Tiny sharp pieces and thin pieces of metal are a different story. <P> 1 If the microwave oven has metal shelves OR a metal turntable, don't microwave food in foil containers or metal pans, and don't let foil used for shielding touch or be close to the shelves or turntable. <P> Though a small amount of aluminum foil might not cause problems with your microwave, it's wise to err on the side of caution and never nuke metal. When food is microwaved, electromagnetic radiation is created in the form of microwaves, which are absorbed by water inside the food. <P> Finally, never put metal such as aluminum foil into a microwave oven. Besides preventing the microwaves from reaching and heating up the food it conceals, aluminum foil tends to give off sparks that might start a fire. Here's why. As its name implies, a microwave oven uses intense microwaves to heat and cook food. <P> It can be safe to use small amounts of aluminum foil in a microwave oven. Microwaves cannot pass through metal but are absorbed by food. No food completely covered by aluminum foil or in a covered metal pan should be put in a microwave oven because food wouldn't be available to absorb the microwaves.

what causes blocked bowels
|
<P> Other causes include hernias and Crohn's disease, which can twist or narrow the intestine, and tumors, which can block the intestine. A blockage also can happen if one part of the intestine folds like a telescope into another part, which is called intussusception. In the large intestine, cancer is most often the cause. Other causes are severe constipation from a hard mass of stool, and narrowing of the intestine caused by diverticulitis or inflammatory bowel disease. Symptoms include: 1 Cramping and belly pain that comes and goes. 2 The pain can occur around or below the belly button. 3 Vomiting. 4 Bloating and a large, hard belly. 5 Constipation and a lack of gas, if the intestine is completely blocked. 6 Diarrhea, if the intestine is part <P> Tumors, scar tissue (adhesions), or twisting or narrowing of the intestines can cause a bowel obstruction. These are called mechanical obstructions. In the small intestine, scar tissue is most often the cause. Symptoms include: 1 Cramping and belly pain that comes and goes. 2 The pain can occur around or below the belly button. 3 Vomiting. 4 Bloating and a large, hard belly. 5 Constipation and a lack of gas, if the intestine is completely blocked. 6 Diarrhea, if the intestine is part <P> Intestinal obstruction occurs when there is a blockage of your small or large intestine. The blockage prevents the passage of fluid or digested food. The blockage may be partial or total. There are many potential causes of intestinal obstruction. In many cases, this condition can’t be prevented. <P> If the bowel blockage is in the large intestine, the most common cause is cancer. When blood flow gets restricted to only one part of the colon, this condition is known as Ischemic Bowel. The colon actually becomes strangled to the point where nothing can pass through. Some of the most common causes of blocked bowel include: 1 Tumors in the colon. 2 Heavy scar tissue. 3 Hernias. 4 Infestation by hostile organisms. 5 Severe or occasional constipation. 6 Crohn’s disease. 7 Cancer <P> About bowel obstruction. A bowel obstruction is a blockage in the bowel. The diagram below shows the bowel and the rest of the digestive system. Your bowel may become completely or partly blocked. This means that the waste from food you have digested can't get past the blockage. <P> Causes of Bowel Blockage. Some of the most common causes of blocked bowel include: 1 Tumors in the colon. 2 Heavy scar tissue. 3 Hernias. 4 Infestation by hostile organisms. 5 Severe or occasional constipation. 6 Crohn’s disease. 7 Cancer <P> Obstruction within the small intestine (small bowel obstruction or SBO) is more common than a blockage elsewhere in the gastrointestinal tract. Given its length and structure, it is more prone to a number of causes that can result in a partial or complete obstruction. Any strangulation which compromises blood flow to the bowel is considered as a medical emergency and needs immediate treatment, usually surgical intervention. Causes of a Blocked Bowel. Most cases of small bowel obstruction are due to mechanical causes. A small portion of cases are due to impaired intestinal motility, thereby preventing the flow of chyme further down the gastrointestinal tract. This causes intestinal contents to become ‘backed up’. <P> The cause of the blockage can be mechanical, meaning that there is a physical obstruction. Mechanical blockage may be caused by scar tissue, adhesions, entrapment through a hernia, foreign bodies, gallstones, tumors, impacted feces, and volvulus (twisting of the intestines). <P> Volvulus can also occur in the large bowel, most often in the sigmoid colon. Other possible causes of bowel obstruction include: 1 Impacted stools (poo) from severe constipation. 2 Diseases that affect the intestinal wall such as Crohn's disease or diverticular disease. 3 Gallstones. 4 A swallowed item. 5 Intussusception, where part of the intestine folds in on itself.

how long does the moon take to complete an entire phase change
|
<P> How long does it take the moon to change from one phase to the next? The full lunar cycle is 28 days from full moon to full moon. So, from full to last half is seven days, to new moon (no moon visible) is fourteen days, to first half is twenty- … one days, and back to full moon is 28 days. The full lunar cycle is roughly 4 weeks, and from full-moon to new-moon is half the cycle, so it would take (roughly) 2 weeks to go from full to new moon. <P> How long does it take the Moon to orbit the Earth? The Moon takes about 27 days (27 days, 7 hours, 43 minutes, 11.6 seconds) to go all the way around the Earth and return to its starting position. The Moon's orbit around the Earth is a slightly squashed circle called an ellipse. <P> What is a blue Moon? A blue moon is the name for the second full moon in a single month. The moon takes 29.5 days to go through a full cycle of phases, so on rare occassions (about once every 2 3/4 years), two full moons will fit in a single month. This is rare that is why it is called the blue moon. <P> A lunar month is about 29.5 days (29 days, 12 hours, 43 minutes, 11.6 seconds). Why is a Lunar month (29.5 days) longer than the number of days it takes the Moon to orbit the Earth (27.3)? Whilst the Moon is orbiting the Earth, the Earth is constantly moving because it is orbiting the sun. The Moon takes about 27 days (27 days, 7 hours, 43 minutes, 11.6 seconds) to go all the way around the Earth and return to its starting position. The Moon's orbit around the Earth is a slightly squashed circle called an ellipse. <P> The time it takes an object to complete one revolution with respect to the stars is called a sidereal period. The Moon has a sidereal period of 27.3 days and a synodic period of 29.5 days. The Earth has a sidereal period of 365.25 days but it doesn't have a synodic period. The Moon has a synodic period of 29.5 days. (Actually that's 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 3 seconds. ) The Moon returns to its phase during a synodic period so there are 29.5 days between each New Moon (or Full Moon, or Crescent Moon, etc.). <P> Technically, each phase, just like the one called a New Moon, when the Moon is exactly between Earth and the Sun, lasts only a brief instant. But to our eyes, a New Moon can last for a few days, representing the time that the Moon appears in the sky too near the Sun's position for us to see it at all. The Moon itself puts out no light at all. It takes about four weeks for the Moon to orbit once around Earth. During this time, the Moon's position relative to Earth and the Sun is constantly changing. During part of its journey, the Moon is between Earth and the Sun. Then, a few days later, it is off to one side <P> The cycle of phases is a bit longer than its orbital period of 27.32 days, becau … se as the Earth orbits the Sun during that period, the moon's orbit must 'catch up' a little bit to cycle through the same geometric positions with the Earth and Sun. This accounts for the extra 1.18 days. The full lunar cycle is roughly 4 weeks, and from full-moon to new-moon is half the cycle, so it would take (roughly) 2 weeks to go from full to new moon. <P> It takes (exactly) 27.321661 days (Earth days) for the Moon to complete one revolution around the Earth. So the time between two Full Moons is about 27.3 days and a Moon day equals 27.3 Earth days. The Moon has a synodic period of 29.5 days. (Actually that's 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 3 seconds. ) The Moon returns to its phase during a synodic period so there are 29.5 days between each New Moon (or Full Moon, or Crescent Moon, etc.). <P> How long does it take our Moon to go around Earth? It takes 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes for our Moon to complete one full orbit around Earth. This is called the sidereal month, and is measured by our Moon's position relative to distant fixed stars. However, it takes our Moon about 29.5 days to complete one cycle of phases (from new Moon to new Moon). This is called the synodic month. The difference between the sidereal and synodic months occurs because as our Moon moves around Earth, the Earth also moves around our Sun

what to put on hair to stop frizz
|
<P> 1 When using products on frizzy hair, focus the product toward the ends of your hair. 2 Work the product up until it is about halfway through up your hair. 3 The ends dry out faster, and applying product to your scalp will only make your hair look greasy. <P> Instead, wet your hair and apply conditioner before you brush it. The viscosity of the conditioner will help the brush glide smoothly over your hair and will make knots easy to untangle. *Find the right brush or comb: Never brush your hair with a fine-toothed brush or comb. <P> 2. Choose air-drying over blow-drying your hair. Air drying your hair will help eliminate frizz by reducing friction and heat caused by styling, blow-drying and towel-drying. To help the cuticles dry flat, tie it in a loose bun or braid as it dries. <P> 1 If you choose to blow dry your hair, consider investing in a diffuser. 2 Applying direct heat to hair is one of the leading causes of frizz. 3 When using a standard blow dryer, wait until hair is 90% air dried, then use the blow dryer to dry the last 10% of your hair. <P> Instead, stylist Connie Eeyerlin of Dionysius Salon in Eugene, Ore., says, towel-dry hair after a shower and brush, comb, or finger-comb it. Next, add a touch of your preferred conditioner or anti-frizz product and just say no to styling with brush or comb. 2. Comb dry hair with wet fingers. <P> Frizzy hair tends to be drier, so you need to put moisture into it. Use a conditioner, a natural oil, or a frizz cream, Baker says. He says natural oils are better than synthetic because they are absorbed into the hair. Synthetic silicon moisturizers, on the other hand, lie on top of the hair, making it appear dirty. <P> Water is the key, Eeyerlin says. The problem with frizzy hair is that it's dry. Water is a basic response to this basic problem.. Eeyerlin suggests wetting your hands, then finger-combing to tackle frizz and tame tangles. 3. Tame with a touch of conditioner.

what is a normal dog temperature
|
<P> A temperature of more than 103 F is considered a dog fever. When dogs have high temperatures that are the result of hot external temperatures or excessive exercise in humid conditions, the condition is referred to as hyperthermia or heat stroke. When temperatures reach 106 F, serious and fatal complications can occur. <P> Dogs have higher body temperature than we do. Therefore, even if your dog may feel hot or feverish to you, his body temperature may still be within normal limit. The normal dog temperature is 101.5°F (38.6°C). A body temperature of 102°F (38.9°C) or above is considered a fever. Dogs can run a high fever of 104°F (40°C) and sometimes up to 105°F (40.5°C). <P> The normal body temperature for a dog falls within the range of 100°F to 102.5°F (about 38°C to 39.2°C). If your dog's temperature is outside of this range, you should contact your veterinarian. Body temperature over 104°F or under 99°F indicates an emergency situation. In general, the most accurate way to measure a dog's body temperature is rectally. <P> The normal body temperature for dogs is between 101 and 102.5 F, compared to 97.6 to 99.6 F for humans. This means your dog may feel feverish to you even when his temperature is completely normal. The word “fever” is typically used to describe elevated body temperature caused by infection or inflammation. <P> A temperature of 100.5° to 102°F degrees is normal. Taking your dog's temperature by ear. When used properly, ear thermometers are a reliable and less invasive way to take your dog's temperature. An ear thermometer works by measuring infrared heat waves that are emitted from the dog's eardrum area.

<P> A zero-energy building, also known as a zero net energy (ZNE) building, net-zero energy building (NZEB), or net zero building, is a building with zero net energy consumption, meaning the total amount of energy used by the building on an annual basis is roughly equal to the amount of renewable energy created on the site. <P> Document Actions. The net energy yield refers to the gross energy produced by the biomass, minus the energy provided from the fossil fuels used in the production and processing of the biomass. It is usually expressed on a per unit basis. 1 Log in. <P> Net Energy Gain (NEG) is a concept used in energy economics that refers to the difference between the energy expended to harvest an energy source and the amount of energy gained from that harvest. <P> Best Answer: Net Energy Gain (NEG) is a concept used in energy economics that refers to the difference between the energy expended to harvest an energy source and the amount of energy gained from that harvest. <P> 5. Energy quality matters. Net energy is only one attribute of an energy system that determines it usefulness to society. The usefulness of an energy system is determined by a complex combination of physical, technical, economic, and social attributes. <P> Part of the Data centers glossary: A net-zero energy (NZE) building is one that relies on renewable sources to produce as much energy as it uses, usually as measured over the course of a year. Net-zero energy buildings start with energy-conscious design.

cabinet refacing average cost
|
<P> While you may not be able to calculate the exact cost of refacing your kitchen cabinets, the following tips can help you estimate the approximate cost of refacing: 1 Educate Yourself: According to BobVila.com, a typical cabinet refacing job costs between $1000 and $5000. 1 Refacing jobs done with high-quality wood veneer can cost up to $9000, depending on the size of the job. 2 Ask What's Included: When you're speaking with various contractors about your cabinet refacing job, make sure you know exactly what is included in the quote they are giving you. <P> Cabinet Refacing is up to 60% less than new cabinets. New cabinets range from $12,500.00 for average cabinets with wood fronts but particle board sides to $30,000.00 dollars for quality all wood cabinets. Cabinet Refacing USA averages between $4,900.00 to $8,900.00 pending the size of the kitchen. <P> 1 According to CostHelper.com, the cheapest refacing jobs use rigid thermofoil (RTF), which costs between $1000 and $3000. 2 Refacing jobs done with high-quality wood veneer can cost up to $9000, depending on the size of the job. 1 Refacing jobs done with high-quality wood veneer can cost up to $9000, depending on the size of the job. 2 Ask What's Included: When you're speaking with various contractors about your cabinet refacing job, make sure you know exactly what is included in the quote they are giving you. <P> In the broadest terms, refacing costs about half of what it would cost to completely replace kitchen cabinetry. The average kitchen is about 10 feet by 12 feet and features approximately 30 linear feet of cabinetry. Frequently, contractors will quote estimates based on the linear foot. <P> 1 Multiply the linear cabinet footage by $130 and $200 and use this as your pre-materials price range. 2 A contractor may include materials when giving you a quote, so be sure to ask. 3 For laminate refacing, an average kitchen costs around $1,000 to $3,000. 1 For laminate refacing, an average kitchen costs around $1,000 to $3,000. 2 Real wood veneer runs anywhere between $2,500 and $6,500, going all the way up to $7,000 to $9,000 for nicer hardwoods. <P> New kitchen cabinetry can be expensive. Refacing is an attractive alternative because it can cost 30-50% less than replacing existing cabinets with cabinets of comparable quality. The average kitchen has about 15 cabinets and, at an average cost per cabinet of $500, can easily exceed $7,500 for cabinets alone. A common rule of thumb in pricing remodeling costs is to figure the cost of cabinets and installation at 50-60% of the total remodeling budget. New cabinets range from $12,500.00 for average cabinets with wood fronts but particle board sides to $30,000.00 dollars for quality all wood cabinets. Cabinet Refacing USA averages between $4,900.00 to $8,900.00 pending the size of the kitchen. <P> 1 Refacing the cabinets in a typical kitchen starts around $1,000-$3,000 for rigid thermofoil (RTF) or plastic laminate and $2,500-$6,000 for real wood veneer (about 1/4-inch think), although costs can rise to $7,000-$9,000 or more for a large project with high-quality wood veneer. <P> Cabinet organizers and accessories will also drive up the cost of your refacing, however, many opt to reface their cabinets because then they will have enough money for a few extras! Think of cookbook rack pull-downs, drawer partitions, lazy susan's, under sink storage or even a knife rack pull-down. Refacing a kitchen with wood will cost from 10 percent to 25 percent more than RTF and laminates, and it can be done in oak, maple, cherry, birch, walnut or almost any other wood a customer wants. <P> Find out how much your project will cost. Provide a few details about your project and receive competitive quotes from local pros. The average national cost to reface cabinets is $6,699, with most homeowners spending between $4,334 and $9,064. This data is based on actual project costs as reported by HomeAdvisor members. Refacing a kitchen with wood will cost from 10 percent to 25 percent more than RTF and laminates, and it can be done in oak, maple, cherry, birch, walnut or almost any other wood a customer wants. <P> A typical refacing project also includes new pulls and handles to finish the job. While the average refacing job costs between $4,000 and $5,000, according to a 2012 report by Cabinet Inventions, the price of cabinet refacing varies significantly based on the type of material you choose.

how much does sleep apnea test cost
|
<P> 1 According to the website, the cost to have sleep study in any part of the country can range anywhere from $2,475 to $3,200. 2 ApneaSupport.org is an online website that offers a wealth of information regarding sleep disorders as well as different treatments for each sleeping disorder. 1 On average, to have a sleep study done, the sleep study cost can vary anywhere from $2,000 to as much as $4,000 per study. 2 If you have a health insurance policy, be sure to check with them before signing up for a study. 3 As long as the study is deemed medically necessary, your insurance company may cover the procedure. <P> Average yearly deductibles for diagnostics can be anywhere between $1000-5000. A hospital Sleep Study can cost as much as $2000 to you whereas a Home Sleep Test will not cost you more than $350. <P> 1 At the Saint Elizabeth Regional Medical Center a sleep study costs $3,077. 2 Some hospitals may charge a facility fee of up to $500 and consultation fees of $150-$350. 3 Most insurers cover an overnight sleep study to diagnose and treat sleep apnea. 1 For example, at the Saint Elizabeth Regional Medical Center, the cost of polysomnography with CPAP is $3,514; the two procedures, when listed separately, total about $4,500. 2 The American Academy of Sleep Medicine offers a list of accredited centers and labs that may help in diagnosing and treating <P> However, with proper screening approximately 75% of people with moderate to severe sleep apnea can be accurately diagnosed with this test. And at about 1/4 of the cost of an in-lab sleep study, it's often the most cost-effective choice. Technical Fee - $800.00. Physician Fee - $500.00. Multiple Sleep Latency Test Cost. A multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) is a sleep study that is performed during the day to measure how sleepy you get or to discern whether breathing treatments for your disorder are working properly. <P> The cost of a home sleep study, at home sleep study, and use of home sleep study equipment, varies. It often costs between $150 – $500. The costs is often covered by most insurance companies. However, the patient most have the symptoms and meet ‘medical necessity’ for a test. Medicare, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, and most other insurance companies cover home sleep testing for sleep apnea. <P> 1 Split Night studies are typically less expensive than doing a sleep study and CPAP titration separately. 2 For example, at the Saint Elizabeth Regional Medical Center, the cost of polysomnography with CPAP is $3,514; the two procedures, when listed separately, total about $4,500. 1 For example, at the Saint Elizabeth Regional Medical Center, the cost of polysomnography with CPAP is $3,514; the two procedures, when listed separately, total about $4,500. 2 The American Academy of Sleep Medicine offers a list of accredited centers and labs that may help in diagnosing and treating sleep apnea. <P> 1 A Blue Cross Blue Shield report finds that the average cost for an oral appliance to treat mild to moderate sleep apnea is $100 - $1,200 with an average cost of $826. 1 For example, at the Saint Elizabeth Regional Medical Center, the cost of polysomnography with CPAP is $3,514; the two procedures, when listed separately, total about $4,500. 2 The American Academy of Sleep Medicine offers a list of accredited centers and labs that may help in diagnosing and treating sleep apnea. <P> Answered on: 4/17/2012. The cost of a sleep study varies from sleep lab to sleep lab and city to city. The average cost of a diagnostic sleep study is about $1700. Hospital based sleep labs can, for some reason, charge twice that amount. Look for a lab associated with a physician who is board certified in sleep medicine. There will be charges for the doctor's consult and for the equipment to treat the sleep apnea. Answered on: 6/12/2013. Depending on the sleep study and center, typically the cost runs between $500 - $1000. This also depends on how many tests you need done. Please call the center to discuss the pricing. <P> 1 A continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine, which applies air pressure to the throat during sleep to keep airways open, is often used to treat moderate to severe sleep apnea. 2 CPAPs typically cost about $1,000-$3,000 or more depending on the make and model of the machine and its features. 1 For example, at the Saint Elizabeth Regional Medical Center, the cost of polysomnography with CPAP is $3,514; the two procedures, when listed separately, total about $4,500. 2 The American Academy of Sleep Medicine offers a list of accredited centers and labs that may help in diagnosing and treating

what is a structure in the midbrain
|
<P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The midbrain or mesencephalon (from the Greek mesos, middle, and enkephalos, brain) is a portion of the central nervous system associated with vision, hearing, motor control, sleep/wake, arousal (alertness), and temperature regulation. Caudally the midbrain adjoins the metencephalon (afterbrain) (pons and cerebellum) while rostrally it adjoins the diencephalon (thalamus, hypothalamus, etc.). The midbrain is located below the cerebral cortex, and above the hindbrain placing it near the center of the brain. <P> Introduction. Human brain midsagittal cut description. The midbrain or mesencephalon represents the connection between the brain stem and the higher centres of the brain and is involved in most body systems including sleep/consciousness, vision, hearing and temperature regulation. The midbrain is located between the diencephalon and the hind brain, or brain stem. Midbrain Development. The midbrain arises from the mesencephalon. One of the key roles of this area of the brain during development is the maintainance of a patent cerebral aqueduct to facilitate the appropriate development of higher brains structures including the cerebral hemispheres. <P> The Pons. The pons, which is also part of the brain stem, is inferior to the midbrain and superior to the medulla. Its posterior border is separated from the cerebellum by the aqueduct of Sylvius, and more inferiorly, by the fourth ventricle. Motor and sensory tracts traverse the anterior surface of the pons. The corpora quadrigemina, which is located on the posterior surface of the midbrain, is composed of two superior colliculi and two inferior colliculi. The superior colliculi are part of the visual system, relaying input from the optic tract to the lateral geniculate bodies of the thalamus. <P> Tectum | Tegmentum | See also. The midbrain, or mesencephalon is made up of two main structures and surrounds the cerebral aqueduct. The tectum is in the dorsal part of the midbrain. The superior colliculi are a part of the visual system and are involved in visual reflexes and reactions to moving stimuli. The inferior colliculi appear as four bumps on the dorsal surface of the brain stem and are a part of the auditory system <P> The hindbrain is made of the cerebellum, pons and medulla. Often the midbrain, pons, and medulla are referred to together as the brainstem. The Cerebrum: The cerebrum or cortex is the largest part of the human brain, associated with higher brain function such as thought and action. <P> Tectum. The tectum is in the dorsal part of the midbrain. The superior colliculi are a part of the visual system and are involved in visual reflexes and reactions to moving stimuli. The inferior colliculi appear as four bumps on the dorsal surface of the brain stem and are a part of the auditory syste <P> The midbrain, also called the mesencephalon, is a region in the brainstem that is critical in producing orienting movements, species-specific behaviors, and the perception of pain. All this information is relayed to the brain to help our pre-frontal cortex make executive decisions. <P> The midbrain is formed by three main structures: the cerebral peduncle (peduncle meaning 'foot' or 'base' of the cerebrum), the corpora quadrigemina (meaning 'quadruplet bodies' since it has four mound or hill-like structures), and the cerebral aqueduct, which is a canal dividing the two structures. In this lesson, we'll explore the midbrain, including where it's located, what structures compose it, and what its role is in the functions of your brain.

IMHO, I think $65 for hair/makeup trial is a fair price to be argued for. <P> Average Wedding Cost. The average wedding cost in the United States is $26,444. Couples typically spend between $19,833 and $33,055 but, most couples spend less than $10,000. This does not include cost for a honeymoon. Understanding wedding cost now can help you with your wedding budget later. <P> However, while the average, magazine-worthy hair/makeup artist will charge around $500/day for several different looks, it still seems overpriced to pay a potentially less qualified wedding hair/makeup artist $300 for one look. Bridesmaid/mother of the bride hair/makeup: $150. Hair or makeup only : $80. *Note, these prices do not include a “trial” hair/makeup run, which can cost anywhere from $50-$150. IMHO, I think $65 for hair/makeup trial is a fair price to be argued for. <P> 1 On the low end, hair and makeup might cost a total of $70, for a one-time makeup application and an updo or partial updo, at the artist's salon. 2 In the mid-range, it might cost $150 or more for an experienced artist to travel to the wedding. I love this places had my hair and makeup done by TWO B BRIDAL for my wedding they did an amazing job on my updo and makeup there prices are the best $100.00 for trial and $180.00 for the day of my wedding.

what were the original fiestaware colors

<P> Vintage Fiesta Covered Casserole in Original 50s Chartreuse Glaze ». Circa 1951-1959: It is a treat to find the rarer 50s colors, and especially the most desirable of them, the Chartreuse Green glaze, on the classic Fiesta shapes that were in production since the lines release in the mid 30s. <P> During the 1950's, several additional colors were added to the original five Fiesta colors. Colors introduced during the 1930's and 1950's are often referred to as original or vintage Fiesta. During the 1960’s Homer Laughlin faced fierce foreign competition that threatened the survival of the business. Homer Laughlin, having retained all original molds to the Fiesta pattern would produce the items for Bloomingdales. Five new colors were introduced in the Bloomingdales line. These colors were a bit pale compared to the bright reds and deep blues of the original Fiesta line and those that are in production today. <P> Fiesta ware was originally introduced in just 5 colors, Red (it may look orange, but everyone seems to have agreed to keep with its original name of red), Blue (cobalt now), Green (light or original green), Yellow and Old Ivory (simply ivory now), with Turquoise not hitting the shelves until 1937. <P> Beginning in 1959, Fiesta was available in the following colors: Red (original orange red), Green (new Medium green), Yellow (original golden), and Turquoise (original robin's egg blue). Although this color assortment was available and sold for ten years (1959–1969), the popularity of Fiesta had fallen. Some of the original shapes were redesigned and other new shapes were designed as part of the 1986 reintroduction by Jonathan O. Parry, who became the company art director in 1984. As a line of open-stock dinnerware, Fiesta allows buyers to select by the piece, rather than requiring the purchase of entire sets. <P> Fiesta, or Fiestaware, was first presented in 1936, at which time there were five colors: green, yellow, ivory, blue, and red. It should be noted that the red is quite orange, the green is often called light green, the yellow is brilliant, and the blue is deep, often called dark blue or cobalt. <P> The original 1936 Fiesta line was limited to just five colors — red (which resembles orange), blue (these days it’s known as cobalt), green (sometimes called light or original green), yellow, and old ivory (“old” was dropped). A year later, turquoise hit the shelves. <P> Well discuss more about red Fiestaware in a later post. The 1950s Fiesta Colors In the 1950s, the Fiestaware line was greatly expanded to include chartreuse, forest green, gray, rose and medium green. Of these colors, medium green is often the rarest color to find a piece of Fiestaware in. Medium green was in production between 1959 and 1969. These discontinued Fiestaware colors can be divided into several categories: The Original Fiesta Colors The original colors are cobalt blue, light green, ivory, red, turquoise and yellow. These colors were introduced in 1936. Of these colors, the production periods are as follows: 1 Cobalt Blue Fiestaware - 1936 to 1951 <P> The first six colors were produced through the 1930's and 40's until a change in fashion direction dictated a change to a softer palette of pastel colors at the beginning of the 1950's. Color trends moved back to brighter colors in the early 1960's and FIESTA® moved with the trend. By the late 60's earthtones were in vogue and the dinnerware industry turned in that direction. Popularity of these colors proved to be short-lived and sales began to fall. In the seventy-nine years since FIESTA® was first produced, there have been a total of 47 colors in the line. Today, Homer Laughlin introduces one new color each year and FIESTA® has become the leading dinnerware brand in casual tabletop, as well as a consistent leader in bridal registries across America. <P> Fiesta is a line of ceramic Art Deco dinnerware glazed in differing solid colors manufactured and marketed by the Homer Laughlin China Company of Newell, West Virginia. The original shapes, glazes and concept of combining various colors were designed by the company's art director Frederick Hurten Rhead in the 1930s. The dinnerware was introduced for retail sales to great success in 1936. Some of the original shapes were redesigned and other new shapes were designed as part of the 1986 reintroduction by Jonathan O. Parry, who became the company art director in 1984. As a line of open-stock dinnerware, Fiesta allows buyers to select by the piece, rather than requiring the purchase of entire sets.

how long to cook pork for
|
<P> 1 Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. 2 An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). 3 Remove roast to a platter. 4 Heat the wine in the pan and stir to loosen browned bits of food on the bottom. 5 Serve with pan juices. 1 Place pork loin into oven, turning and basting with pan liquids. 2 Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. 3 An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). 4 Remove roast to a platter <P> 1 Preheat oven to 425 degrees F for 15 minutes. 2 Place the roast in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature down to 200 degrees F. 3 Roast for about 4 hours or until the meat is falling-apart tender (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast). 1 Place the roast in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature down to 200 degrees F. 2 Roast for about 4 hours or until the meat is falling-apart tender (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast). 3 Stir the salt and black pepper into the juice (do not omit the salt!). <P> 1 Cover tightly. 2 Preheat oven to 425 degrees F for 15 minutes. 3 Place the roast in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature down to 200 degrees F. 4 Roast for about 4 hours or until the meat is falling-apart tender (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast). 1 Place the roast in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature down to 200 degrees F. 2 Roast for about 4 hours or until the meat is falling-apart tender (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast). 3 Stir the salt and black pepper into the juice (do not omit the salt!). <P> Swirl to coat the bottom. Roast the pork for 10 minutes: Set the pork in the pan. (It's fine if your pork tenderloin is a little long for the pan; just bend it to fit as we did here.) Return the pan to the oven. Roast for 10 minutes. Flip the pork, reduce the heat, and roast another 10 to 15 minutes: Flip the pork to the other side. Reduce the oven temperature to 400°F and continue roasting another 10 to 15 minutes. The pork is done when its internal temperature registers 140°F to 145°F in the thickest part of the meat (20 to 25 minutes total). <P> In general, cooking the pork tenderloin over high heat for about 20 to 27 minutes per pound brings it to the required 145 F while preserving its inner juiciness. Whether pan-cooking the tenderloin on a stovetop, broiling it in an oven or cooking it on an indoor electric grill, the technique remains the same. The meat may still have a pink tint in the middle when it's sliced. In the past, cooks recommended cooking pork until it became white and opaque throughout. This can dry out a lean cut like pork tenderloin. Store fresh pork tenderloin for 3 to 5 days in the refrigerator or in the freezer for 4 to 6 months. <P> Cook Pork Tenderloin to 145 F. According to the USDA, pork tenderloin must be cooked to a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. After cooking, remove the meat from the heat and rest it for at least 3 minutes, which raises its temperature a bit more. The meat may still have a pink tint in the middle when it's sliced. In the past, cooks recommended cooking pork until it became white and opaque throughout. This can dry out a lean cut like pork tenderloin. Store fresh pork tenderloin for 3 to 5 days in the refrigerator or in the freezer for 4 to 6 months. <P> 1 Remove pork from oven, lightly cover with foil, and let rest 5-10 minutes to redistribute internal juices. 2 Roast should be done, very slightly pink in the center, and very moist. 3 After resting 10 minutes, the roast should reach a safe 145-150 degrees. <P> Continue cooking about 50-80 minutes or until the meat registers 145 degrees on a meat thermometer. Some roasts are long and thin and others are short and fat, consequently the cooking times will vary depending on the shape of your roast. The meat thermometer is the best way to judge the right amount of cooking time. <P> Place the pork on a high shelf in the oven and roast it for 25 minutes. Turn the heat down to 190C/375F/Gas 5, and calculate the total cooking time allowing 35 minutes to the pound, then deduct the initial 25 minutes cooking time. In this case it would be a further 2½ hours.

what is the symbolism of the name drummle
|
<P> Names. We're pretty sure Dickens had one party of a time cooking up the names in this novel. For example, Pip is the nickname Pip gave himself, because he could not say his full name (Phillip Pirrip). Or Magwitch: he pretty much collects names, but we like this one the best, mainly because it sounds like a magnet met a witch. The witch part of his name is very interesting, because we fancy him to be a bit of a magician himself, a bit of a mysterious creature. <P> A person would be called by the word for an animal or force of nature in orde … r to bring valued attributes to that person. Later names described something about a person and referred to what they did, what they looked like or where they came from. As a result, most names derive from a word with some meaning. However, in many cases the knowledge of that meaning is lost in everyday usage ad is merely an interesting but trivial piece of information, not expected to reflect any actual aspect of the person using the name. The idiomatic phrase you name it is a way of describing the completeness or wide extent of a collection or group. Whatever individual version of a thing or concept you can s … elect (name) is already included in the group. <P> Consider the symbolism or significance of the character names: “Estella”, the “Pockets”, “Havisham”, and “Drummle”. Explain how their names reflect their role in the story or reveal some aspect of their personalities. <P> Estella, whose name means star is perceived as an almost ethereal being of great beauty by the naive Pip. Of course, the figurative irony of her name is later revealed. Mr. Jaggers, then, is a character whose name has meaning that extends beyond the identity of his person. For, as Pip describes him in Chapter 18, The strange gentleman, with an air of authority not to be disputed, and a manner expressive of knowing something secret about every one of us.... Instead, any other name would not work for many of his characters since these names are symbolic. That is, the names represent more than the literal nomenclature of a character; the names have figurative meanings as well. One such example of a character whose silly name indicates his foolish nature is Uncle Pumblechook. <P> Answered by The Community. Making the world better, one answer at a time. Drummle is an ancient Irish name for a hilltop fortress, usually built as a lookout point on top of an old faery ring or Drumlin. The idiomatic phrase you name it is a way of describing the completeness or wide extent of a collection or group. Whatever individual version of a thing or concept you can s … elect (name) is already included in the group. <P> Dickens’ uses pathetic fallacy by the mists to demonstrate clarity of thinking. Whenever the mists rise, Pip is able to see things around him clearly. When the mists are present, they can symbolize danger and uncertainty like when Magwitch attacks Pip, shortly after arriving in London or before the attack of Orlick. Dickens uses the ever so famous archetype of light to represent the goodness and dark to represent the evil or unknown. Joe’s character almost emits light to guide Pip along the way while the Satis House is almost completely dark. <P> Like the protagonist, Pip, Estella is introduced as an orphan, but where Pip was raised by his sister and her husband to become a blacksmith, Estella was adopted and raised by the wealthy and eccentric Miss Havisham to become a lady. Estella Havisham (best known in literature simply as Estella) is a significant character in the Charles Dickens novel, Great Expectations. <P> Read an in-depth analysis of Pip. Estella-Miss Havisham’s beautiful young ward, Estella is Pip’s unattainable dream throughout the novel. He loves her passionately, but, though she sometimes seems to consider him a friend, she is usually cold, cruel, and uninterested in him. Analysis of Major Characters. Pip-The protagonist and narrator of Great Expectations, Pip begins the story as a young orphan boy being raised by his sister and brother-in-law in the marsh country of Kent, in the southeast of England. <P> Jaggers actually likes Drummle (well, he is a shady lawyer), but tells Pip to stay away from him. Drummle eventually marries Estella, to Pip's great anguish, and he becomes an abusive husband. He dies while mistreating a horse, and we're only a little sorry.

what is manga
|
<P> (Note that anime in Japan technically means any animated film, and manga is any printed cartoon, but people in the rest of the world take them to mean animated films or comics from Japan.). First of all, though an outsider might think Japan stole comics from the West, this is not true. <P> Manga is the Japanese comics with a unique story line and style. In Japan people of all ages read manga, manga does not target younger audiences like american comics. The genre includes a broad range of subjects. Here you will find 1000s of free english translated manga scans to read online. <P> Manga originated in Japan as a graphic novel form of pornographic content for men, eventually it became so popular that they started creating more child and women appropriate manga. (of course some have not changed) Manga is the graphic novel form of an anime. <P> The term manga (kanji: 漫画; hiragana: まんが; katakana: マンガ; listen (help·info) ; English /ˈmaeŋɡə/ ˈmæŋɡə /or/) ˈmɑːŋɡə is A japanese word referring both to comics and. Cartooning manga as a term used Outside japan refers specifically to comics originally published In. japan <P> Manga (漫画, Manga) are comics created in Japan, or by creators in the Japanese language, conforming to a style developed in Japan in the late 19th century. They have a long and complex pre-history in earlier Japanese art. <P> Many people might say Manga are Japanese comics, and Anime is the Japanese version of animation. Anime is usually, but not always, the animated version of popular manga.. That's partially true, but it can be misleading. <P> Usually the manga or anime have a book of it and a show. Both were made by the Japanese but they have a lot of differences besides the fact that one is a show and one is a book. Anime is animation of a cartoonish show and manga is book of pictures or comics (also graphic novels).

where does the myelin sheath in nervous tissue
|
<P> 1 The damaged myelin forms scar tissue (sclerosis), which gives the disease its name. 2 When any part of the myelin sheath or nerve fiber is damaged or destroyed, nerve impulses traveling to and from the brain and spinal cord are distorted or interrupted, producing a wide variety of symptoms. Myelin – the protective coating around nerve fibers in the central nervous system – is a primary target of the immune attack in MS. <P> Depending on the location, different glial cell types make myelin in a different manner. Schwann cells make myelin in the peripheral nervous system (PNS: nerves) and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS: brain and spinal cord). In the PNS, one Schwann cell forms a single myelin sheath (Figure 1A). The ratio between axon diameter and that of the total nerve fiber (axon and myelin) is 0.6–0.7, a ratio that is well maintained regardless of the axon caliber. The length of the myelin sheath along the axon is approximately 1 mm in the PNS. <P> Myelin is a fatty white substance that surrounds the axon dielectric (electrically insulating) material that forms a layer, the myelin sheath, usually around only the axon of a neuron. It is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system. It is an outgrowth of a type of glial cell. The production of the myelin sheath is called myelination. In humans, myelination begins in the 14th week of fetal development, although little myelin exists in the brain at the time of birth. Myelin is considered a defining characteristic of the (gnathostome) vertebrates, but myelin-like sheaths have also been seen in some invertebrates, although they are quite different from vertebrate myelin at the molecular level. Myelin was discovered in 1854 by Rudolf Virchow. <P> myelin sheath. n. The insulating envelope of myelin that surrounds the core of a nerve fiber or axon and that facilitates the transmission of nerve impulses, formed from the cell membrane of the Schwann cell in the peripheral nervous system and from oligodendroglia cells. Also called medullary sheath. <P> 1 : : Forms part of the Myelin sheath (protective covering) around a PNS neuron. 2 That is, Schwann cells wrap around the axon of the neurone, forming areas in which myelin forms-resulting in the formation of a myelin sheath around the axon-between the axon and the Schwann cell(s). Oligodendrocyte cells are found in the Central Nervous System (CNS), that is in the tissues of the Brain and Spinal Cord. : Oligodendrocytes differ from astrocytes (listed higher-up this page) by having fewer and thinner processes and no gap junctions. : 1 Forms supporting network around CNS neurons. <P> Myelin sheath. made up by oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system and schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system; provides protection and insulation for the axon, and also increases teh speed of conductivity of the nervous impulse; myelinated axons are also calle dmyelinated fibers. <P> Schwann cells, in the peripheral nervous system, and oligodendrocytes, in the central nervous system, wrap around the axons of neurons to form myelin sheaths. Myelin sheaths are electrical insulators and prevent current from leaving axons. Nerve Fibers. The nerve fiber consists of a neuron's axon and its myelin sheath, if present. Nerve fibers are found in the peripheral nervous system and central nervous system. In the peripheral nervous system, Schwann cells form the sheath around axons, and each Schwann cell forms the sheath for just one neuron. <P> medullary sheath myelin sheath. myelin sheath (nerve sheath) the sheath surrounding the axon of myelinated nerve cells, consisting of concentric layers of myelin formed in the peripheral nervous system by the plasma membrane of Schwann cells, and in the central nervous system by the plasma membrane of oligodendrocytes. n.

what kind of work does forged metals do
|
<P> Cold forging is generally preferred when the metal is already a soft metal, like aluminum. This process is usually less expensive than hot forging and the end product requires little, if any, finishing work. Sometimes, when aluminum is cold forged into a desired shape, it is heat treated to strengthen the piece. One of the most common types of cold forging is a process called impression-die forging, where the metal is placed into a die that is attached to an anvil. The metal is then hit by a descending hammer and forced into the die. <P> Another common open die forging process performed in industrial metal forging manufacture, involves using flat die to round an ingot. With the use of mechanical manipulators, a work piece is compressed and rotated in a series of steps eventually forming the metal into a cylindrical part. Flashless Forging. Flashless forging is a type of precision forging process in which the entire volume of the work metal is contained within the die and no material is allowed to escape during the operation. Since no material can leave the mold as the part is forged, no flash is formed. <P> The forge is used by the smith to heat a piece of metal to a temperature where it becomes easier to shape by forging, or to the point where work hardening no longer occurs. Sometimes such as when hardening steel or cooling the work so that it may be handled with bare hands; the workpiece is transported to the slack tub, which rapidly cools the workpiece in a large body of water. The slack tub also provides water to control the fire in the forge. <P> Forging is a manufacturing process involving the shaping of metal using localized compressive forces. The blows are delivered with a hammer (often a power hammer) or a die. Forging is often classified according to the temperature at which it is performed: cold forging (a type of cold working), warm forging, or hot forging (a type of hot working). For the latter two, the metal is heated, usually in a forge. Impression-die forging is also called closed-die forging. In impression-die forging, the metal is placed in a die resembling a mold, which is attached to an anvil. Usually, the hammer die is shaped as well. The hammer is then dropped on the workpiece, causing the metal to flow and fill the die cavities. <P> It is important that when manufacturing a metal forging by this process, the part is worked significantly enough to change the structure of the material in the center of the work piece. Large shafts for motors and turbines are forged this way from cast ingots. Flashless Forging. Flashless forging is a type of precision forging process in which the entire volume of the work metal is contained within the die and no material is allowed to escape during the operation. Since no material can leave the mold as the part is forged, no flash is formed. <P> A forge is a type of hearth used for heating metals, or the workplace (smithy) where such a hearth is located. Sometimes such as when hardening steel or cooling the work so that it may be handled with bare hands; the workpiece is transported to the slack tub, which rapidly cools the workpiece in a large body of water. The slack tub also provides water to control the fire in the forge. <P> Metal forging is a metal forming process that involves applying compressive forces to a work piece to deform it, and create a desired geometric change to the material. Flashless Forging. Flashless forging is a type of precision forging process in which the entire volume of the work metal is contained within the die and no material is allowed to escape during the operation. Since no material can leave the mold as the part is forged, no flash is formed. <P> Introduction. Forging is the process by which metal is heated and is shaped by plastic deformation by suitably applying compressive force. Usually the compressive force is in the form of hammer blows using a power hammer or a press. Forging refines the grain structure and improves physical properties of the metal. Physical properties (such as strength, ductility and toughness) are much better in a forging than in the base metal, which has, crystals randomly oriented. Forgings are consistent from piece to piece, without any of the porosity, voids, inclusions and other defects. <P> The Difference Between Casting & Forging. Casting is the process where metal is heated until molten. While in the molten or liquid state it is poured into a mold or vessel to create a desired shape. Forging is the application of thermal and mechanical energy to steel billets or ingots to cause the material to change shape while in a solid state.

what kind of learning did pavlov demonstrate in dogs
|
<P> Developed by the Russian scientist Ivan Pavlov, classical conditioning is the first type of learning wherein an organism responds to an environmental stimulus. <P> Several types of learning exist. The most basic form is associative learning, i.e., making a new association between events in the environment. There are two forms of associative learning: classical conditioning (made famous by Ivan Pavlov’s experiments with dogs) and operant conditioning. Pavlov’s Dogs. In the early twentieth century, Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov did Nobel prize-winning work on digestion. <P> Pavlov's experiment was an experiment of classical conditioning. Everyone knows that when a dog sees food it salivates. In Pavlov's experiment, he rang a bell every time he ga … ve food to his dogs. Eventually, Pavlov found that even when he rang the bell, but did not give his dogs food, they would still salivate. <P> Summary: Classical conditioning is a reflexive or automatic type of learning in which a stimulus acquires the capacity to evoke a response that was originally evoked by another stimulus. <P> During the 1890s Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov was looking at salivation in dogs in response to being fed, when he noticed that his dogs would begin to salivate whenever he entered the room, even when he was not bringing them food. At first this was something of a nuisance (not to mention messy!). <P> Classical Conditioning. One important type of learning, Classical Conditioning, was actually discovered accidentally by Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936). Pavlov was a Russian physiologist who discovered this phenomenon while doing research on digestion. His research was aimed at better understanding the digestive patterns in dogs.

what is the formula for area of a square and rectangle
|
<P> Area of a Rectangle. The area of a square that has a side-length of 1 cm is 1 square centimetre (or 1 cm 2). To find the area of a rectangle by the method of counting squares, we divide the rectangle into small squares of one centimetre side-length. Consider a rectangle of length 5 cm and width 3 cm. Using the method of counting squares, we find that the area of the rectangle is 15 cm 2 <P> The formula is written as Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width). As you can see, the formula can be written in various ways that mean the same thing.So let's do a couple of examples: If the length of a rectangle is 3 inches and the width is 1 inch, the perimeter = 2(3in) + 2(1in) = 8 in. So the perimeter is 8 inches. The area would equal 6 x 4, which equals 24 inches squared.Here's another example: if the rectangle is 8 inches long by 2 inches wide, the area would equal 8 x 2, which equals 16 inches squared. Now lets move on to finding the perimeter of a rectangle. <P> To find the area of a triangle, multiply the base by the height, and then divide by 2. The division by 2 comes from the fact that a parallelogram can be divided into 2 triangles. For example, in the diagram to the left, the area of each triangle is equal to one-half the area of the parallelogram. <P> Area of a Rectangle. The area of a polygon is the number of square units inside the polygon. To understand the difference between perimeter and area, think of perimeter as the length of fence needed to enclose the yard, whereas area is the space inside the yard. Given the length and width of a rectangle, we can find the area. Given the area and one dimension of a rectangle, we can find the other dimension. The formula for area of a rectangle is: where is the length and is the width. <P> In another example, the length of our rectangle is 5 inches and the width is 4 inches. So 2(5in) + 2(4in) = 18. Therefore the perimeter of this rectangle is 18 inches. So that's how you calculate the area and perimeter of a rectangle. The area would equal 6 x 4, which equals 24 inches squared.Here's another example: if the rectangle is 8 inches long by 2 inches wide, the area would equal 8 x 2, which equals 16 inches squared. Now lets move on to finding the <P> The opposite sides of a rectangle are always parallel and equal in length.The formula for finding the area of a rectangle is very easy, you simply multiply the length of the rectangle by the width. Therefore Area = Length x Width. The area would equal 6 x 4, which equals 24 inches squared.Here's another example: if the rectangle is 8 inches long by 2 inches wide, the area would equal 8 x 2, which equals 16 inches squared. Now lets move on to finding the perimeter of a rectangle. <P> Area of a Rectangle. A quadrilateral is a called rectangle, if it is a parallelogram and each angle measures 90 degrees. A rectangle is a four sided and closed figure. In a rectangle all opposite sides are parallel and equal. Also in a rectangle all the adjacent sides are perpendicular. A rectangle is a quadrilateral and also a parallelogram. Let us consider a rectangle with length x units and width y units. Area of the above rectangle = L × W. Example 1: Given a rectangle where the length is 5cm and the width is 3cm. <P> Units. Area is measured in square units. The area of a figure is the number of squares required to cover it completely, like tiles on a floor. Area of a square = side times side. Since each side of a square is the same, it can simply be the length of one side squared. If a square has one side of 4 inches, the area would be 4 inches times 4 inches, or 16 square inches. (Square inches can also be written in2.) Be sure to use the same units for all measurements. <P> Area of a rectangle formula. The area of a rectangle is equal to a product of lenghts of two sides (height and width). where A-the area of a rectangle, a, b-the length of sides(the height and width of rectangle). A = a · b. You can use online calculator for computing the area of a rectangle. <P> To find the area of a rectangle, multiply the length by the width. The formula is: , where is the area, is the length, is the width, and · means multiply. A square is a rectangle with 4 equal sides. To find the area of a square, multiply the length of one side by itself. The formula is: or, where A is the area, s is the length of a side, and · means multiply. Let's look at some examples of finding the area of rectangles. Given the length and width of a rectangle, we can find the area. Given the area and one dimension of a rectangle, we can find the other dimension. The formula for area of a rectangle is: where is the length and is

what does testing mean in textiles
|
<P> Testing: Testing is the process or procedure to determines the quality of a product. Quality: The term quality refers the excellence of a product. When we say the quality of a product is good. We mean that the product is good for the purpose for which it has been made. Control: To check or verify and hence to regulate. Quality Control: Quality control is the synthetic and regular control of the variable which affect the quality of a product. The operational techniques and activities that sustain the quality of a product or service in order to satisfy given requirements. <P> The Martindale abrasion test is an international standard and widely accepted throughout the world as a reliable means of determining a fabric’s ability to withstand abrasion and pilling. It was developed for the express purpose of testing woven and knit fabrics. This abrasion testing method has been modified to test all types of materials against abrasion. In its various iterations, the test can be used to test clothing textiles, leather, upholstery fabric, automotive tires and floor covering. <P> Oeko-Tex Standard 100 or Öko-öko Tex standard (100 sometime Misspelled) oktex is an independent testing and certification system for textile products from all stages of (production, fibres, yarns, fabrics-ready-to use end, products including) accessories along the textile value. chain The global standard is issued by the International Association for Research and Testing in the Field of Textile Ecology (Oeko-Tex) with headquarters in Zurich (Switzerland). It currently includes 15 neutral test and research institutes in Europe and Japan with contact offices in over 60 countries around the world. <P> Eco-Textile Testing-The trend of green consumerism has extended to textile and apparel products. Major European and U.S. textile product buyers have responded to this public awareness by viewing their textile products from an ecological standpoint, and are establishing relevant requirements.

How long do you cook chicken schnitzel in fan forced oven
|
<P> When using ovens with both fan-forced and conventional settings, it is best to use conventional when you are baking long and slow (like for cakes) and fan-forced for fast cooking at high temperatures. If using a fan-forced oven, as a general rule, drop the temperature by 20°C to imitate conventional. <P> This is based on a chicken of about 2 kg. Cook in a fan oven at 180° for 50 to 55 minutes per kg and measure the temperature in the middle of the breast. If it's stuffed, take out when the temperature is 82°. Otherwise take it out when the temperature is 88°. The time should be pretty much the same. Rack of lamb. Cook to 55° in a 200° fan-forced oven, about 30 minutes. I'm pretty sure that 63° is the right temperature, but last time I tried it was with a deboned leg in a net, and I suspect I put the temperature probe into an air pocket: at any rate, it took nearly two hours and was overcooked. <P> Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, in 2 batches, for 2 to 3 minutes each side or until browned and cooked through. <P> Place in an oiled baking tray, breast-side up. Roast for 15 minutes. Turn the heat down to 160C (again, fan-forced) and roast for a further 45 minutes to an hour, basting with the pan juices every 20 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven once cooked. Rest it in a draught free place for 15 to 20 minutes, uncovered. Use this time to make the gravy <P> #2 Escapin. Posted. if you can cook them on a rack over a baking dish you'll get better results. I reckon 190 degrees for 10-15 minutes (you'll need to check, as it depends how thick they are). Also, if you don't mind adding a little extra fat, you can spray them with non-stick cooking spray to get them a bit more crunchy. <P> 1 The ideal temperature to fry schnitzel is around 375 degrees F. 2 When the oil is hot (but not smoking or splattering), fry the coated breasts in single-layer batches until they are golden brown on both sides. 3 If your oil is at the right temperature, it should take about 3-4 minutes per side.

what is a riveting machine
|
<P> The downward force required to deform the rivet with an automatic riveting machine is created by a motor and flywheel combination, pneumatic cylinder, or hydraulic cylinder. Manual feed riveting machines usually have a mechanical lever to deliver the setting force from a foot pedal or hand lever. Riveting machines can be sub-divided into two broad groups — impact riveting machines and orbital (or radial) riveting machines. <P> Superior Rivet Machines is an innovative manufacturer and distributor of high quality rivet machines. Superior’s commitment to the customer is what drives us to bring the best solution to each individual application. Superior's Revolution impact rivet machines are made completely in-house in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Furthermore, we have partnered with companies from around the world to provide our customers with solutions where there may be special requirements or budgetary constraints. <P> A rivet is a permanent mechanical fastener. Before being installed, a rivet consists of a smooth cylindrical shaft with a head on one end. The end opposite the head is called the tail. On installation the rivet is placed in a punched or drilled hole, and the tail is upset, or bucked (i.e., deformed), so that it expands to about 1.5 times the original shaft diameter, holding the rivet in place. In other words, pounding creates a new head on the other end by smashing the tail material flatter, resulting in a rivet that is roughly a dumbbell shape. To distinguish between the two ends of the rivet, the original head is called the factory head and the deformed end is called the shop head or buck-tail. <P> Send Enquiry. Riveting Machine. Riveting Machine is used in automatic squeezing of rivets that provide support for joining two pieces together. The latest technology support used in these riveting machines makes them provide superior consistency and productivity. Further, these also offer lower operation costs in comparison to manual riveting.... These multi point riveting machines, multi spindle drilling machines allows riveting to be done on more than one rivet at a time. The smallest distance between the rivets can be 10 mm. The largest center distance can be about 60 mm. <P> Orbital Riveting and Forming. Orbital riveting and forming is a cold forming process using a peen tool held at a fixed angle to create a sweeping line of pressure around the part, progressively forming the material with each rotation. This process reduces the amount of forming force required by approximately 80% of a standard press. <P> Noun. 1. riveting machine-a machine for driving rivets. riveter, rivetter. machine-any mechanical or electrical device that transmits or modifies energy to perform or assist in the performance of human tasks. <P> Because there is effectively a head on each end of an installed rivet, it can support tension loads (loads parallel to the axis of the shaft); however, it is much more capable of supporting shear loads (loads perpendicular to the axis of the shaft). Bolts and screws are better suited for tension applications. In other words, pounding creates a new head on the other end by smashing the tail material flatter, resulting in a rivet that is roughly a dumbbell shape. To distinguish between the two ends of the rivet, the original head is called the factory head and the deformed end is called the shop head or buck-tail. <P> Click on a category to drill down.

origin of term doldrums
|
<P> Colloquially, the doldrums are a state of inactivity, mild depression, listlessness or stagnation. The word is derived from dold (an archaic term meaning stupid) and-rum(s) , a noun suffix found in such words as tantrum . The doldrums are notably described in Samuel Taylor Coleridge 's The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, in Laura Hillenbrand's Unbroken, and in Patrick O'Brian 's Desolation Island. <P> Origin. The Doldrums is the region of calm winds, centered slightly north of the equator and between the two belts of trade winds, which meet there and neutralize each other. It is widely assumed that the phrase 'in the doldrums' is derived from the name of this region. Actually, it's the other way about. In the 19th century, 'doldrum' was a word meaning 'dullard; a dull or sluggish fellow' and this probably derived from 'dol', meaning 'dull' with its form taken from 'tantrum'. From the bluff head where I watch'd to-day, I saw her in the doldrums; for the wind Was light and baffling. [Note: baffling winds are those which are shifting and variable, making progress under sail impossible.]. The 'equatorial doldrums' is another of these calm places. <P> More. To most people the doldrums refers to a state or period of stagnation or depression, but to sailors it is an equatorial region of the Atlantic Ocean with calms, sudden storms, and light unpredictable winds. For sailing ships, being becalmed in the doldrums was a serious occupational hazard. 1 On the equator there is little wind, mariners called this region the doldrums (after an old English word meaning dull) because they feared being stranded there. 2 The trade winds from both hemispheres converge towards the doldrums and a zone of low pressure, the equatorial trough, that girdles the earth. <P> Definition of DOLDRUM. 1. doldrums plural a: a spell of listlessness or despondency: blues b: a state of bafflement: quandary. 2. archaic: a sluggish or slow-witted person. 3. doldrums plural a: a region over the ocean near the equator abounding in calms, squalls, and light baffling winds b: the calms met with in that region. 4. <P> 1 doldrums: meaning and definitions-doldrums: Definition and Pronunciation. 2 Doldrums-Doldrums (The). 3 The name given to that region of the ocean near the equator noted for calms, ... 4 equatorial belt of calms-equatorial belt of calms: equatorial belt of calms: see doldrums.

The doldrums are notably described in Samuel Taylor Coleridge 's The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, in Laura Hillenbrand's Unbroken, and in Patrick O'Brian 's Desolation Island.

what is peat moss made of
|
<P> The most common use of peat moss is to lower the pH of soil for planting certain species. Mixing peat moss into a planting bed allows plants that prefer a more acidic environment to survive in soil that is otherwise more alkaline. <P> This wonderful gardening material is also what peat pots and pellets are made of. Peat pots holds seed starting soil, yet is soft enough for the plant roots to grow right through the walls of the pots. At transplanting time, the plant and pot are planted in the garden soil. <P> Two-thirds of the world's peat moss is found in Russia, with large reserves also common in Finland, Ireland, Canada and the northern part of the Midwestern states in the United States, according to the University of Vermont. <P> Overview. Coco coir is made from the residue of the extraction of long fibers from the husks of coconuts. Peat moss is a dead layer under living sphagnum moss growing on top of bogs in North America, Ireland, Scotland and northern Europe. Peat moss is a traditional soilless growing medium. <P> Peat moss is made from decomposed mosses, such as sphagnum, hypnum, reeds or sedge. The most common source of peat moss is sphagnum. <P> Sphagnum. Peat moss is the common name for a variety of mosses from the genus Sphagnum, all of which can be found growing on and in peat bogs. The tough, fibrous moss increases the acidity of the bog on which it grows, as well as reducing airflow to the decaying matter underneath. <P> Peat moss is commonly used in flower beds and planters to help regulate water and air flow to flowers, shrubs and other plants. There are many common sources of this common product for your garden. <P> Peat moss is mined, which involves scraping off the top layer of living sphagnum moss. The sphagnum peat bog above the mined product is a habitat for plants like sundews, butterwort and bog rosemary, as well as rare and endangered animals like dragonflies, frogs and birds, not to mention the living moss itself. <P> Many potting mixes are based on a combination of soil and peat moss. Soils and potting mixes can seem very confusing to the novice gardener, as there are so many different choices available. An important point to remember is that most plants are so adaptable, they can survive in just about any mix.

what single cell were all of the cells derived from in the body
|
<P> Pluripotent stem cells are master cells. They’re able to make cells from all three basic body layers, so they can potentially produce any cell or tissue the body needs to repair itself. Stem cells made by somatic cell nuclear transfer (ntES cells). The term somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) means, literally, transferring the nucleus (which contains all of a cell’s genetic instructions) from a somatic cell—any cell of the body—to another cell, in this case an egg cell. <P> Stem cells are categorized by their potential to differentiate into other types of cells. Embryonic stem cells are the most potent since they must become every type of cell in the body. The full classification includes: 1 Totipotent-the ability to differentiate into all possible cell types. 2 Examples are the zygote formed at egg fertilization and the first few cells that result from the division of the zygote. Stem cells are a class of undifferentiated cells that are able to differentiate into specialized cell types. Commonly, stem cells come from two main sources: 1 Embryos formed during the blastocyst phase of embryological development (embryonic stem cells) and. 2 Adult tissue (adult stem cells). <P> Within the bone marrow, all blood cells originate from a single type of unspecialized cell called a stem cell. When a stem cell divides, it first becomes an immature red blood cell, white blood cell, or platelet-producing cell. <P> 1 Examples include embryonic stem cells and cells that are derived from the mesoderm, endoderm, and ectoderm germ layers that are formed in the beginning stages of embryonic stem cell differentiation. 2 Multipotent-the ability to differentiate into a closely related family of cells. Stem cells are a class of undifferentiated cells that are able to differentiate into specialized cell types. Commonly, stem cells come from two main sources: 1 Embryos formed during the blastocyst phase of embryological development (embryonic stem cells) and. 2 Adult tissue (adult stem cells). <P> About Monoclonal Antibodies: Monoclonal Antibodies are cells derived by cell division from a single ancestral cell. Monoclonals are a class of antibodies with identical offspring of a hybridoma and are very specific for a particular location in the body derived from a single clone and can be grown indefinitely. <P> IV. An adult stem cell is thought to be an undifferentiated cell, found among differentiated cells in a tissue or organ. The adult stem cell can renew itself and can differentiate to yield some or all of the major specialized cell types of the tissue or organ. The primary roles of adult stem cells in a living organism are to maintain and repair the tissue in which they are found. <P> 1 Pluripotent-the ability to differentiate into almost all cell types. 2 Examples include embryonic stem cells and cells that are derived from the mesoderm, endoderm, and ectoderm germ layers that are formed in the beginning stages of embryonic stem cell differentiation. Stem cells are a class of undifferentiated cells that are able to differentiate into specialized cell types. Commonly, stem cells come from two main sources: 1 Embryos formed during the blastocyst phase of embryological development (embryonic stem cells) and. 2 Adult tissue (adult stem cells). <P> One population, called hematopoietic stem cells, forms all the types of blood cells in the body. A second population, called bone marrow stromal stem cells (also called mesenchymal stem cells, or skeletal stem cells by some), were discovered a few years later. The adult stem cell can renew itself and can differentiate to yield some or all of the major specialized cell types of the tissue or organ. The primary roles of adult stem cells in a living organism are to maintain and repair the tissue in which they are found. <P> Embryonic stem cell. Also called ES cells, embryonic stem cells are cells derived from the inner cell mass of developing blastocysts. An ES cell is self-renewing (can replicate itself), pluripotent (can form all cell types found in the body) and theoretically is immortal. Stem cells that can give rise to all cell types that are found in an embryo, fetus, or developed organism, including the embryonic components of the trophoblast and placenta required to support development and birth. <P> The cell (from Latin cella, meaning small room) is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known living organisms. Cells are the smallest unit of life that can replicate independently, and are often called the building blocks of life. The study of cells is called cell biology.

what causes a pinched nerve in neck
|
<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> Pinched median nerve. A pinched nerve occurs when too much pressure (compression) is applied to a nerve by surrounding tissues. In some cases, this tissue might be bone or cartilage, such as in the case of a herniated spinal disk that compresses a nerve root. <P> Pinched Nerve in Neck Causes. To better understand causes of a pinched nerve in the neck, conditions of the cervical spine should be examined. As it leaves the spine, a nerve can be affected by an unwanted condition such as a neck bone spur (osteophytes) or a bulging, or herniated neck disc compressing the nerve. <P> 1 A pinched nerve in the neck can cause neck pain or stiffness, along with symptoms down the arm. 2 A pinched nerve in the lower back causes back pain and stiffness with symptoms down the leg. 1 A pinched nerve in the lower back causes back pain and stiffness with symptoms down the leg. 2 A doctor can often identify which nerve is pinched in the neck or lower back based on what portion of the patient's arm or leg is affected. <P> A pinched nerve in the neck or lower back can be caused by a herniated disc, arthritis, bone spurs, or spinal stenosis. If the doctor suspects the patient has a pinched nerve (compression of the nerves) in the neck or lower back, X-rays may be necessary to assess possible injury to the spine or arthritis of the spine. Depending on the severity and duration of the patient's symptoms, he or she may also need a CT scan or an MRI scan <P> Symptoms of a pinched nerve in your neck, all of which can extend down into your arms and all the way to your hands and fingers, include: 1 Pain that radiates from your neck. 2 Numbness, burning, or a prickling sensation. 3 Problems with sensation. 4 Feeling weakness. <P> Causes of Pinched Nerves. A pinched nerve occurs when there is compression (pressure) on a nerve. The pressure may be the result of repetitive motions. Or it may happen from holding your body in one position for long periods, such as keeping elbows bent while sleeping. These symptoms may result from changes that develop in the spine 's discs and bones. For example, if a disc weakens or tears -- known as a herniated disc -- pressure can get put on a spinal nerve. Nerve compression in your neck or arm may also cause symptoms in areas such as your: 1 Elbow. 2 Hand. 3 Wrist. 4 Fingers.

what is the effect of parathyroid secretion
|
<P> 1 Suppression of calcium loss in urine: In addition to stimulating fluxes of calcium into blood from bone and intestine, parathyroid hormone puts a brake on excretion of calcium in urine, thus conserving calcium in blood. 2 This effect is mediated by stimulating tubular reabsorption of calcium. <P> Parathyroid hormone is the most important endocrine regulator of calcium and phosphorus concentration in extracellular fluid. This hormone is secreted from cells of the parathyroid glands and finds its major target cells in bone and kidney. Another hormone, parathyroid hormone-related protein, binds to the same receptor as parathyroid hormone and has major effects on development. <P> What is parathyroid hormone? Parathyroid hormone is secreted from the four parathyroid glands, which are small glands in the neck, located behind the thyroid gland. Parathyroid hormone regulates calcium levels in the blood, largely by increasing the levels when they are too low. <P> Parathyroid hormone is secreted by the parathyroid glands and is the most important regulator of calcium levels in the blood and within the bones. Alternative names for parathyroid hormone PTH; parathormone; parathyrin. <P> Tweet. The parathyroid hormone (PTH) is secreted by the parathyroid gland, four small glands located on the posterior surface of the thyroid gland. The hormone is regulated by the calcium and phosphate levels in the blood and acts primarily on the bone and kidneys to increase circulating levels of calcium. <P> Hypoparathyroidism is the state of decreased secretion or activity of parathyroid hormone (PTH). This leads to decreased blood levels of calcium (hypocalcemia) and increased levels of blood phosphorus (hyperphosphatemia). <P> The secretion of both calcitonin and parathyroid hormone is determined by the level of calcium in the blood. When levels of calcium in the blood increase, calcitonin is secreted in higher quantities.

what does a blood test for the liver show
|
<P> Liver tests (LTs) are blood tests used to assess the general state of the liver or biliary system. Few of these tests actually measure how well the liver or biliary system is functioning, but rather reflect the presence of damage or inflammation. <P> No blood test is 100% accurate. If the doctor suspects a liver problem, they usually do more blood test ,with intervals in between, to be sure of the tests results. The blood tests only give the doctor an idea that there is something wrong. They cannot give a true diagnoses until other tests are done. Usually, a liver problem starts out as inflammation of the liver cells. This means that the liver cells are stress and can become damage which causes the immune system to respond. The blood tests may show a rise in the liver enzymes at this point. But, in some people no rise is detected. <P> Liver blood tests are some of the most commonly performed blood tests. These tests can be used to assess liver functions or liver injury. An initial step in detecting liver damage is a simple blood test to determine the level of certain liver enzymes (proteins) in the blood. <P> Liver enzyme tests, formerly called liver function tests (LFTs), are a group of blood tests that detect inflammation and damage to the liver. They can also check how well the liver is working. Most often, a liver test panel is ordered as a routine lab test. Many doctors check the liver in new patients or during annual physicals. Your doctor may conduct liver enzyme and liver function tests if: 1 You are taking a medication that can harm the liver. 2 You have liver disease. 3 You have symptoms of liver or bile system disease (abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, or yellow skin) <P> A liver (hepatic) function panel is a blood test to check how well the liver is working. This test measures the blood levels of total protein, albumin, bilirubin, and liver enzymes. High or low levels may mean that liver damage or disease is present. The liver serves several important functions in the body, including changing nutrients into energy for the body and breaking down toxic substances. <P> Liver function tests (LFTs or LFs) are groups of blood tests that give information about the state of a patient's liver. These tests include prothrombin time (PT/INR), aPTT, albumin, bilirubin (direct and indirect), and others. <P> Liver function tests are blood tests used to help diagnose and monitor liver disease or damage. The tests measure the levels of certain enzymes and proteins in your blood. Some of these tests measure how well the liver is performing its normal functions of producing protein and clearing bilirubin, a blood waste product. Other liver function tests measure enzymes that liver cells release in response to damage or disease. Abnormal liver function test results don't always indicate liver disease. Your doctor will explain your results and what they mean. 1 Why it's done. <P> You may have blood tests to check your liver enzymes. These can help show whether you have had liver inflammation for a long time. These blood tests include: 1 Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) , alanine aminotransferase (ALT) , and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Measuring the levels of certain chemicals produced by the liver can show how well your liver is working. Blood tests may be used to measure: 1 Albumin and total serum protein. 2 Albumin is a type of protein. <P> Blood tests to check liver function.

I DO NOT LIKE SPRAYING INSECTICIDE AROUND THE HOUSE. <P> Flea shampoos and dips are effective for adult fleas. Flea collars. Flea collars work one of two ways-by emitting a toxic (to fleas, anyway) gas, and by being absorbed into the animal's subcutaneous fat layer. The toxic gas is usually only effective in the immediate area of the head and neck. Shampoos and dips. A shampoo, or flea bath is a good first attack on fleas for the pet that has large numbers of fleas visible on its body. Cats can be difficult to bathe. It is important to know how to properly use the medicated shampoo to effectively rid your pet of fleas. <P> you need to remove the collars and flea spray your cats to kill the fleas and then hoover a lot and put new collars on your cats to stop the fleas coming back. hoover and spray a home flea spray twice a day for about a month to kill all the adults and the little ones that will hatch out in a couple of weeks. to me personally the flea collar dont work and try to give them a bath and put two tubes of frontline plus on each of them and only do it when you read the package and it depends on the weight of the cats.. Deanna · 6 years ago. Thumbs up. <P> Flea collars don't work. The fleas just go to the tail and it seems like that's where the problem is. I suggest Frontline. If it's too pricey for you, you should check out some non-profit neutering/spaying locations and sometimes they sell Frontline for really cheap (approx. 20-40 dollars.

I DO NOT LIKE SPRAYING INSECTICIDE AROUND THE HOUSE. <P> Flea collars are the oldest but not necessarily the most effective method of flea control for dogs. A flea collar is a plastic collar designed to gradually release pesticides that kill adult fleas on the animal wearing it. First introduced in 1964, flea collars are one of the oldest flea control products available today. Flea collars are significantly less expensive than other flea control products currently available on the market. They are also long-lasting, with some brands claiming to maintain effectiveness for up to 12 months. <P> Here's the lowdown: Flea collars do kill fleas. However they do it slowly. It takes about 4 days for a flea collar to kill a flea. In that amount of time, the flea has laid about 400 eggs. Then mom and dad flea die. Now 2 weeks later 400 newly hatched fleas jump onto Fido or Mittens. The flea collar again kills the newly acquired fleas....in another 4 days. <P> Flea collars don't work. They can actually cause skin irritation and other problems. Hartz products are by far the worst, and dogs have actually died from Hartz products.You need to give your dog a flea bath, and remove the ticks. Flea collars aren't very reliable. And if it makes the fleas jump off your dog, it may not kill the eggs and flea larvae. If you bought a cheap collar, it may take hours before you see any results. <P> # 2. 6318. flea collars are generally meant to prevent fleas from jumping on your dog not used after the fact there are certain kinds that do kill fleas make sure you are using that kind. Then i would make sure it isnt some sort of rash or some other insect like a tick. Flea collars aren't very reliable.

why is pita bread good for you
|
<P> Whole-wheat pita bread is the healthiest type of pita bread since it’s made with whole grains and contains lots of vitamins and minerals. Whole-wheat pita bread boasts a few powerful health benefits – it helps reduce your risk of cholesterol and high blood sugar. Brown rice bread is also perfect for weight loss. It keeps you full, energetic, and it’s low in calories and sugar. Try eating brown rice bread with butter and fresh vegetables or low fat cheese. If you stick to a very strict diet, consider having steamed or boiled vegetables with a few pieces of brown rice bread. <P> The U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends at least half of your grain servings consist of whole grains. There's a good reason for this -- whole grains are more nutritious and provide more health benefits. The healthiest type of pita bread is one made with whole grains, such as whole-wheat. You'll get the most minerals from eating whole-grain pitas. Each whole-grain pita provides 11 percent of the DV for iron and magnesium, 12 percent of the DV for phosphorus, 56 percent of the DV for manganese and 40 percent of the DV for selenium. <P> Pita Bread. As far as the nutritional value of pita bread goes, it is a mixed picture. Pita bread has both healthy as well as unhealthy attributes in its nutritional value. As far as calories go, one large pita (60 grams) comes with 165 calories. While regular bread is more common for making sandwiches in the West, pita bread has grown in popularity in the same region due to the use of its pocket as a way of making a sandwich. <P> White pitas each provide 0.7 gram of fat, 5.5 grams of protein and 33.4 grams of carbohydrates, while whole-wheat pitas have 1.7 grams of fat, 6.3 grams of protein and 35.2 grams of carbohydrates. The big difference between these types of pita bread is the fiber content. You'll get the most minerals from eating whole-grain pitas. Each whole-grain pita provides 11 percent of the DV for iron and magnesium, 12 percent of the DV for phosphorus, 56 percent of the DV for manganese and 40 percent of the DV for selenium. <P> Unenriched white pita bread, enriched white pita bread and whole-wheat pita bread all have about the same number of calories, with a 6-inch white pita containing 165 calories and a same-sized whole-wheat pita containing 170 calories. You'll get the most minerals from eating whole-grain pitas. Each whole-grain pita provides 11 percent of the DV for iron and magnesium, 12 percent of the DV for phosphorus, 56 percent of the DV for manganese and 40 percent of the DV for selenium. <P> While the salt content is somewhat worrisome in the same serving of both pita as well as regular bread, regular bread just doesn't have as many waist-busting carbs in a comparable serving, and it has more fiber, which is great for bowel movements, among other things. While regular bread is more common for making sandwiches in the West, pita bread has grown in popularity in the same region due to the use of its pocket as a way of making a sandwich. <P> However, regular bread is not that much healthier than pita bread because while it beats pita bread in some areas of nutritional value, it is nearly equal to it in others. For instance, in a 60 gram slice of whole wheat bread, you get 4 grams of fiber, which is almost four times as much as in pita bread. While regular bread is more common for making sandwiches in the West, pita bread has grown in popularity in the same region due to the use of its pocket as a way of making a sandwich. <P> Pita is not bad. There are low fat english muffins and Arnold has a bread similar to pita, but I can't recall the name. I highly suggest Weight Watchers-you can do it online if you aren't into the group thing, but it is really supportive. Is pita bread good for you? I'm about to go on a diet, and I was wondering if eating pita bread can help me? If not, please tell me something else that is good to eat (besides vegetables). <P> yes pita bread is good as long as you don't eat to much of it. Brown bread and the new weight watchers bread is great to eat too. Proteing is very helps just not to much red meat. Chicken is great! Is pita bread good for you? I'm about to go on a diet, and I was wondering if eating pita bread can help me? If not, please tell me something else that is good to eat (besides vegetables).

<P> The internet in simple terms is a network of the interlinked computer networking worldwide, which is accessible to the general public. These interconnected computers work by transmitting data through a special type of packet switching which is known as the IP or the internet protocol. The internet and World Wide Web are both the networks yet; the internet is the network of the several different computers which are connected through the linkage of the accessories like the copper wires, the fiber optics and even the latest wireless connections. <P> 1. A network is a collection of computers, servers, mainframes, network devices, peripherals, or other devices connected to one another allowing for data to be shared and used. A great example of a network is the Internet, connecting millions of people all over the world together. Below is an example image of what a home network with multiple computers and other network devices all connected to each other and the Internet. Any device capable of connecting to a network is considered a network device. Below are some of the more common network devices you are likely to find on a home network. 1 Computer (e.g. desktop, laptop, or server computer). 2 Console. 3 Firewall. 4 Hub. <P> It is a network of networks (internet is short for internetworking) that consists of millions of private, public, academic, business, and government networks of local to global scope, linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless, and optical networking technologies. The Internet standards describe a framework known as the Internet protocol suite. This is a model architecture that divides methods into a layered system of protocols, originally documented in RFC 1122 and RFC 1123. The layers correspond to the environment or scope in which their services operate. <P> The Internet is the global system of interconnected computer networks that use the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to link billions of devices worldwide.

The layers correspond to the environment or scope in which their services operate. <P> The Internet: Computer Network Hierarchy. Every computer that is connected to the Internet is part of a network, even the one in your home. For example, you may use a modem and dial a local number to connect to an Internet Service Provider (ISP). <P> The use of IP in the Internet is the integral part of the network, as they provide the services of the internet, through different layers organization through the IP data packets. There are other protocols that are the sub-classes of the IP itself, like the TCP, and the HTTP. The internet and World Wide Web are both the networks yet; the internet is the network of the several different computers which are connected through the linkage of the accessories like the copper wires, the fiber optics and even the latest wireless connections. <P> The Internet is not synonymous with World Wide Web. The Internet is a massive network of networks, a networking infrastructure.

The World Wide Web, or simply Web, is a way of accessing information over the medium of the Internet. <P> A computer network or data network is a telecommunications network which allows computers to exchange data. In computer networks, networked computing devices exchange data with each other along network links (data connections). A local area network (LAN) is a network that connects computers and devices in a limited geographical area such as a home, school, office building, or closely positioned group of buildings. Each computer or device on the network is a node. Wired LANs are most likely based on Ethernet technology. <P> When you have two or more computers connected to each other, you have a network.

what type of magnesium for migraines
|
<P> Many patients ask about the best type of magnesium supplement to take for the prevention of migraines and other symptoms. Research studies have compared magnesium oxide with chelated magnesium and a slow release form of magnesium chloride and showed that all three types are absorbed equally well. I usually recommend starting with 400 mg of magnesium oxide but chelated magnesium is also very inexpensive and either one can be effective. <P> If you decide to take supplemental magnesium, the recommended starting dose is 400-500 mg/day in divided doses. The limiting factor for most people is diarrhea. If you are on a migraine preventative medication that is constipating, like amitriptyline or verapamil, this might be a plus. It’s always wise to check with your doctor before starting on magnesium, especially if you are on medication. It is best not to take magnesium at the same time as medications. If you have concerns about whether or not you should be taking magnesium, or about the timing of magnesium and your medications, your pharmacist may be of help in advising you. <P> Migraines are extremely painful, recurring headaches that are sometimes accompanied by other symptoms, such as visual disturbances, for example, seeing an aura or nausea. There are 2 types of migraine -- migraine with aura, formerly called common migraines, and migraine without aura, formerly called classic migraines. Pregnancy. Many of the medications, herbs, and supplements used to prevent or treat migraines should not be used during pregnancy. Talk to your doctor before using any medication, over-the-counter or prescription, or any complementary therapy before or during your <P> No, there is no advantage in magnesium sulfate over chloride when given intravenously, although there is a little more magnesium in 1 gram of magnesium chloride than in 1 gram of magnesium sulfate. We use magnesium sulfate for our migraine and cluster headache patients. Research studies have compared magnesium oxide with chelated magnesium and a slow release form of magnesium chloride and showed that all three types are absorbed equally well. I usually recommend starting with 400 mg of magnesium oxide but chelated magnesium is also very inexpensive and either one can be effective. <P> However, if one type of magnesium causes upset stomach or diarrhea, another one should be tried. Chelated magnesium is a form of magnesium which is attached to an amino acid and depending on the amino acid it is called magnesium aspartate, glycinate, gluconate, orotate, malate, and other. Besides chelated and magnesium oxide, magnesium citrate or carbonate can be tried. Research studies have compared magnesium oxide with chelated magnesium and a slow release form of magnesium chloride and showed that all three types are absorbed equally well. I usually recommend starting with 400 mg of magnesium oxide but chelated magnesium is also very inexpensive and either one can be effective. <P> Some headache patients who use magnesium report relief from migraines. However, studies regarding the effectiveness of magnesium for migraines are limited. Authors of a 1996 German study wrote that “high-dose oral magnesium appears to be effective in treating migraine (Peikert et al., 1996). Magnesium is thought to affect changes in the blood vessels in the brain. Magnesium supplements are sometimes recommended to prevent migraines. They are also recommended to treat acute <P> Researchers have been investigating the magnesium migraines connection because of magnesium's role in stabilizing blood vessels walls. Magnesium is also an important mineral when it comes to helping you get to sleep. Symptoms of low magnesium... Magnesium is important to the body, and so low magnesium can cause a host of problems, such as: irregular heartbeats, loss of appetite, insomnia (a killer for migraineurs!), weakness, shortness of breath, PMS, anxiety, dizziness, nausea, and poor coordination. <P> A 2002 study demonstrated that intravenous magnesium sulfate helped relieve migraines in patients with or without an “aura,” and a 1996 German trial showed that a single daily dose of 600 mg oral trimagnesium citrate decreased the frequency of migraine attacks by over 40 percent among the study's subjects. Magnesium is an essential mineral that has demonstrated some benefit in treating and preventing migraine headache. The Institute of Medicine’s recommended daily allowances for magnesium range from 30 to 420 milligrams, depending on your age, gender and pregnancy status. <P> As to what to take, I tend to use magnesium citrate in practice, and usually aim for a dose of about 300-400 mg of magnesium each day (this equates to about 1750-2350 mg of magnesium citrate each day). References: 1. Maukop A, et al. Why all migraine patients should be treated with magnesium. For example, magnesium deficiency can make constriction in blood vessels more like (magnesium normalises the function of the ‘smooth’ muscle that lines blood vessels). It is thought that constriction and then dilation of blood vessels around the brain can be at the root of some migraine headaches. <P> Magnesium is found in many foods, but some of the best include wheat germ, beans, soy products, whole grains, seafood, dark green leafy vegetables, bananas (warning: bananas are a major migraine trigger for some people) and milk. Symptoms of low magnesium... Magnesium is important to the body, and so low magnesium can cause a host of problems, such as: irregular heartbeats, loss of appetite, insomnia (a killer for migraineurs!), weakness, shortness of breath, PMS, anxiety, dizziness, nausea, and poor coordination.

how much space do i need for system image
|
<P> PB. I am planning to buy an external hard drive so I can store my system image on it in case my computer fails. I just want to know how much will an average system image takes up if you have a few programs worth about 20 GB. Look at your computer's hard drive in the Windows GUI. <P> I used to make a repair disc on a dvd (4.7 GB), but it is not enough it only create 30% completion of the repair disc on one dvd. How many memory do I need to make a repair disc? Is it normally if you'll use a 4 dvd to burn a repair disc? A Windows Repair disk requires about 50% of a CD. You make it via the Control Panel / Backup and Restore. An Windows Image disk requires about as much space as is consumed on your system drive. It is best stored on an external USB disk. Using DVDs is not a good idea: You need too many of them, they are unreliable and if any one of them becomes unreadable then the whole image is useless. <P> Does the image actually require the amount of space that is being used on the hard drive you are trying to backup? For example, I have 104GB used up on my computer right now. do i need 104GB to create a system image for backup? thanks in advance! Report Abuse. Yes, you will need to have as much space available for the image as you have on the hard drive you are making the image of. This is because an image is essentially an exact replica or copy of your hard drive. If you need an image of a 500 GB HD, the image is going to be 500 GB as well, since it's a complete copy. <P> How to Create and Restore System Images. To create a system image on Windows. You can then restore these backup images using the Advanced Startup Options on Windows 8 or the System Recovery option on Windows 7. These can be accessed from a Windows installation disc or recovery drive. On a Mac, you can use Time Machine create and restore system image backups. You then have a complete system image you can copy back onto a drive to restore the system state. The system image contains a complete snapshot of everything on the computer’s hard drive at any given time. So, if you have 500 GB of space used on a 1 TB drive, the system image will be about 500 GB. Some system image programs use compression to shrink the system image’s size by as much as possible, but don’t count on saving much space in this way <P> After nearly 2 hours(!) the system image stopped with a message that there wasn't enough space on the backup disk, and that to free up space I could delete a previous backup. It identified the current backup I was doing as a possible previous backup, and reported it had taken 17.8Gb of the external drive disk space. I just tried to do a System Image for the first time of my Home Premium 64-bit laptop to an external USB2 HD (which I have used with for several years with Acronis TrueImage for my XPH desktop PC).

describe the two layers of the pericardium. what is the function of pericardial fluid
|
<P> Surrounding the heart is a fibrous sac called the pericardium. This sac protects the heart, and is actually composed of two layers: an inner visceral one and an outer parietal one. When the heart moves (i.e. when the heart beats), these two layers move with it. For this to happen, it is important that there is no friction between the two layers of the pericardium, which is why pericardial fluid lines the inner space between the them. Much like oil in an engine, the pericardial fluid makes for less friction between the inner and outer layer of the pericardium. The pericardial cavity or sac is the potential space between the parietal and visceral layers of serous pericardium. In other words, two different layers of cardiac tissue. <P> This serous layer has two membranes which enclose the pericardial cavity into which is secreted the pericardial fluid. The fluid is similar to the cerebrospinal fluid of the brain which also serves to cushion and allow some movement of the organ. The pericardial fluid reduces friction within the pericardium by lubricating the epicardial surface allowing the membranes to glide over each other with each heart beat. <P> The pericardium (from the Greek περί, around and κάρδιον, heart) is a double-walled sac containing the heart and the roots of the great vessels. The pericardial sac has two layers, a serous layer and a fibrous layer. It encloses the pericardial cavity which contains pericardial fluid. The pericardium fixes the heart to the mediastinum, gives protection against infection, and provides the lubrication for the heart. In between the parietal and visceral pericardial layers there is a potential space called the pericardial cavity, which contains a supply of lubricating serous fluid known as the pericardial fluid. When the visceral layer comes into contact with heart (not the great vessels) it is known as the epicardium. <P> The pericardium is a tough double layered fibroserous sac which covers the heart. The space between the two layers of serous pericardium (see below), the pericardial cavity, is filled with serous fluid which protects the heart from any kind of external jerk or shock. There are two layers to the pericardial sac: the outermost fibrous pericardium and the inner serous pericardium. In between the parietal and visceral pericardial layers there is a potential space called the pericardial cavity, which contains a supply of lubricating serous fluid known as the pericardial fluid. When the visceral layer comes into contact with heart (not the great vessels) it is known as the epicardium. <P> The pericardium has several functions: The pericardium is divided into three layers: The pericardial cavity lies between the visceral pericardium and the parietal pericardium. This cavity is filled with pericardial fluid which serves as a shock absorber by reducing friction between the pericardial membranes. Pericardial Membranes. 1 Fibrous Pericardium-the outer fibrous sac that covers the heart. 2 Parietal Pericardium-lies between the visceral pericardium and the fibrous pericardium. 3 Visceral Pericardium-also called the epicardium, this is the outer layer of the wall of <P> Pericardial fluid is the serous fluid secreted by the serous layer of the pericardium into the pericardial cavity. The pericardium consists of two layers, an outer fibrous layer and the inner serous layer. The pericardial fluid reduces friction within the pericardium by lubricating the epicardial surface allowing the membranes to glide over each other with each heart beat. <P> The Pericardium. The pericardium is a thin, two-layered, fluid-filled sac that covers the outer surface of the heart. It shields the heart from infection or malignancy and contains the heart in the chest wall. It also prevents the heart from over-expanding when blood volume increases, which keeps the heart functioning efficiently. <P> The pericardium is a tough, layered sac that wraps around the heart. When the heart beats, it slides easily within the sac. Normally, only 2 to 3 tablespoons of clear-yellow pericardial fluid are present between two layers, which lubricates the heart's movements within the sac. A pericardial effusion is an abnormal amount of fluid between the heart and the pericardium, which is the sac surrounding the heart. Pericardial effusions are associated with many different medical conditions.

what is pathogen
|
<P> In biology, a pathogen (Greek: πάθος pathos “suffering, passion” and -γενής -genēs “producer of”) in the oldest and broadest sense is anything that can produce disease, a term which came into use in the 1880s. The host may be an animal, a plant, a fungus, or even another microorganism. There are several substrates including pathways where the pathogens can invade a host. The principal pathways have different episodic time frames, but soil contamination has the longest or most persistent potential for harboring a pathogen. <P> Typically the term is used to describe an infectious agent such as a virus, bacterium, prion, fungus, viroid, or parasite that causes disease in its host. The host may be an animal, a plant, a fungus, or even another microorganism. There are several substrates including pathways where the pathogens can invade a host. The principal pathways have different episodic time frames, but soil contamination has the longest or most persistent potential for harboring a pathogen. Diseases caused by organisms in humans are known as pathogenic diseases <P> Infectious diseases are caused by pathogens, which include bacteria, fungi, protozoa, worms, viruses, and even infectious proteins called prions. Pathogens of all classes must have mechanisms for entering their host and for evading immediate destruction by the host immune system. Even within each class of pathogen, there is striking diversity. Viruses vary tremendously in their size, shape, and content (DNA versus RNA, enveloped or not, and so on), and the same is true for the other pathogens. <P> Pathogen. Definition. noun, plural: pathogens. An agent causing disease or illness to its host, such as an organism or infectious particle capable of producing a disease in another organism. Supplement. Pathogens are mostly microscopic, such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi, thriving in various places such as air, dust, surfaces, soil, etc. Not all bacteria are pathogens, in fact most of them are harmless and only a few are pathogenic. Examples of pathogenic bacteria are Mycobacterium tuberculosis (causing tuberculosis), Streptococcus penumoniae (causing pneumonia), Shigella, Campylobacter and Salmonella (causing foodborne illnesses). <P> Bloodborne pathogens are infectious microorganisms in human blood that can cause disease in humans. These pathogens include, but are not limited to, hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
