what is the difference rdsa rdsb
|
<P> Each of these is a classification for shares in the company. Both types of shares offer the same amount of rights to the shareholder, however the RDSA is more closely linked to the original Royal Dutch Shell company. This means that if you buy RDSA shares you are buying into a Dutch listed company that complies with the Dutch tax regulations. <P> LONDON -- There are things to love and loathe about most companies. Today, I'm going to tell you about three things to loathe about Royal Dutch Shell (LSE: RDSB) (NYSE: RDS-B) . I'll also be asking whether these negative factors make this FTSE 100 Anglo-Dutch oil giant a poor investment today. <P> Summary: 1.RDSA and RDSB shares differ in the location where they are listed – RDSA is formerly of the original Royal Dutch Shell Company of the Netherlands while RDSB is previously associated with Shell Transport and Trading, a U.K.-based company and a subdivision of Royal Dutch Shell. As a business, the company is registered in the stock market as RDSA and RDSB. These are the classifications of shares wherein each share is a share of the company. Both shares have identical rights but have different characteristics <P> RDSA are class A shares, RDSB are class B. Withholding tax on dividends. RDSA have a Dutch dividend withholding tax of 15%. RDSB are considered UK-sourced dividends, and if you are a UK resident then the UK tax benefits apply. In short, if you are UK resident, then it makes sense to buy RDSB over RDSA <P> There are two classes of shares – A and B(RDS.A and RDS.B). For US investors it is a much better option to invest in the B shares, since those do not come with a 15% withholding tax from the Dutch government. You could here about the difference between A and B shares. In addition to that, each Royal Dutch Shell American Depository Receipt (ADR) is equal to two shares, traded on London or Amsterdam. At the same time the company has managed to deliver a 1.10% average annual increase in its EPS since 2000. <P> Royal Dutch Shell is incorporated in England and Wales, but is a tax resident of the Netherlands. The Class B shares come with a dividend access mechanism, which does not require the withholding of a 15% Dutch tax on dividends that the Class A shares are required to pay. That is the only difference. <P> RDSA vs RDSB. Royal Dutch Shell is a company that is associated with oil and gas. It has global operations with its headquarters in The Hague, Netherlands and has a registered office in London, United Kingdom. As a company, it is often referred to simply as Shell. As a business, the company is registered in the stock market as RDSA and RDSB. These are the classifications of shares wherein each share is a share of the company. Both shares have identical rights but have different characteristics <P> Royal Dutch Shell has two classes of share listed on the London stock exchange. One has the ticker RDSB, and you'll find this ticker quoted in articles here on the Motley Fool. The other class of share has the ticker RDSA. Today, I'm going to tell you about three things to loathe about Royal Dutch Shell (LSE: RDSB) (NYSE: RDS-B) . I'll also be asking whether these negative factors make this FTSE 100 Anglo-Dutch oil giant a poor investment today. <P> Looking at the investor website, I was able to glean this information: Royal Dutch Shell PLC Class A shares (NYSE: RDS.A) and Royal Dutch Shell PLC Class B shares (NYSE: RDS.B) are dual share classes with equal economic interest in Royal Dutch Shell. The Class B shares come with a dividend access mechanism, which does not require the withholding of a 15% Dutch tax on dividends that the Class A shares are required to pay. That is the only difference.

Petroleum hydrocarbons are a large group of varied compounds. The compounds can be classified by number of carbon molecules and arrangement. The more carbons in a given compound, the less volatile, or higher the boiling point. <P> Volatile hydrocarbons are hydrocarbons that are liquid at normal pressure and temperature but have a high vapor pressure and therefore evaporate rapidly. Some examples of volatile hydrocarbons include toluene, methylene chloride, and acetone. 3 people found this useful. An organic molecule made of nothing more than hydrogen and carbon atoms. A hydrocarbon contains only hydrogen atoms and carbon atoms. There are a large number of hydrocarbons, but the simplest is CH4 (methane). <P> Their high vapor pressure results from a low boiling point, which causes large numbers of molecules to evaporate or sublimate from the liquid or solid form of the compound and enter the surrounding air.

what temperature do bream spawn
|
<P> For the exoatmospheric nuclear test, refer to Bluegill (nuclear test). The Bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) is a species of freshwater fish sometimes referred to as bream, brim, or copper nose. It is a member of the sunfish family Centrarchidae of the order Perciformes. It is native to North America and lives in streams, rivers, lakes, and ponds. It is commonly found east of the Rockies. <P> Answers. Best Answer:   There are two species of crappie, the black and the white crappie. Both spawn at approximately the same water temperature, anywhere from about 59 degrees Fahrenheit to 68 degrees Fahrenheit. In my area its usually sometime in April but varies in different parts of the country. The bluegill sunfish can spawn multiple times during the warmer months of the year. They typically first spawn sometime in spring when water temps hit 67 degrees Fahrenheit and will spawn up until temperatures rise above 82 degrees <P> Spawn Season. As the late spring days get warmer and longer, water temperatures will also be on the rise. A consistent water temperature above 70 degrees typically signifies the start of the yearly peak in bluegill fishing: Spawn Season. The increase of spring sun and warmer weather will elevate the water temperature. This change encourages the bluegill to make their way into the shallow waters from the deeper hollows where they spent the frigid winter. The temperature change also makes the fish more active and sparks the desirable spawn season. <P> Bass anglers can lose focus after the fish leave the beds. Anglers knew what to do as the fish went through the prespawn and actual spawn, but 10 days later these same anglers can be confused, zipping from one spot to the next like water bugs. It’s this postspawn period, prior to the fish setting up on established summertime areas, that throws a monkey wrench into bass fishing <P> The bluegill will be aggressive and hungry so catching them will be easy work. In many areas, it is possible for a rash of cold weather to hit after spawn season has started. This will decrease the water temperature and change how the male bluegill bite. The increase of spring sun and warmer weather will elevate the water temperature. This change encourages the bluegill to make their way into the shallow waters from the deeper hollows where they spent the frigid winter. The temperature change also makes the fish more active and sparks the desirable spawn season. <P> Bluegill spawning begins in the spring when water temperatures reach about 70 degrees F., peaks in May or June, and continues until the water cools again in the fall. In areas that are free from overcrowding, some will spawn again during the latter part of the season. <P> Spawning occurs when water temperature reaches 69 degrees in water 2 to 3 feet deep. It is during spawn that all panfish are easiest to catch. Fish return to the same spawning beds year after year, so discovering a hotspot ensures fishing success every spring. Common Names. bream, blue bream, sun perch, blue sunfish, copperhead, copperbelly, roach. Description. Bluegills have small mouths and oval-shaped, almost rounded, bodies. Body coloration is highly variable with size, sex, spawning, water color, bottom type, and amount of cover. <P> A female may produce 2,000 to 145,000 eggs. Two sunfish species which may be of interest to area anglers are redear sunfish and bluegill. The redear sunfish spawn usually peaks around 68-70oF (April-May), while bluegill start later in the season and peak around 72-78oF (May-June). <P> Spring Bluegill Spawn. Spring is an excellent time to catch monster bluegills. With the hardships of winter ending, the bluegill's attention turns toward feasting to gather energy for the bluegill spawn. Conditions are optimal for a fisherman to take advantage of this frenzy of activity since the bluegills will be less cautious and more voracious than any other time of the year. <P> [ Fishing for Bluegill]. Common Names. bream, blue bream, sun perch, blue sunfish, copperhead, copperbelly, roach. Description. Bluegills have small mouths and oval-shaped, almost rounded, bodies.

<P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC or DL-PFC) is an area in the prefrontal cortex of the brain of humans and primates. It is one of the most recently evolved parts of the human brain, that undergoes an extremely prolonged period of maturation that lasts until adulthood. DLPFC is not an anatomical structure, but rather a functional one. This region lies in the middle frontal gyrus of humans (i.e., lateral part of Brodmann's area (BA) 9 and 46 and in macaque monkeys, this region is around the principal sulcus (i.e., in Walker's area 46). <P> The Prefrontal Cortex is that part of the brain located behind our forehead that is responsible for the executive function, meaning that it acts like a conductor communicating, guiding, and coordinating the functions of the different parts of the brain. <P> Prefrontal cortex.

what is actinomycosis
|
<P> Introduction. Actinomycosis is a rare type of bacterial infection caused by a group of bacteria called actinomycetaceae. Most bacterial infections are confined to one part of the body because the bacteria are unable to penetrate the body's tissue. Oral cervicofacial actinomycosis is where the infection develops inside the neck, jaw or mouth. In the past, if the condition developed in the jaw it was known as lumpy jaw. Most cases of oral cervicofacial actinomycosis are caused by dental problems, such as tooth decay or a jaw injury. <P> Actinomycosis is caused by a species of bacteria known as actinomyces, which live harmlessly in the lining of the mouth, throat, digestive system and women´s vagina. Unlike other infections, actinomycosis is able to move gradually and infiltrate the body's tissue, causing swelling and inflammation. Eventually there is tissue damage and scaring, pus-filled abscesses appear in the mouth, lungs, or gastrointestinal tract. <P> Actinomycosis is an infection primarily caused by the bacterium Actinomyces israelii. Infection most often occurs in the face and neck region and is characterized by the presence of a slowly enlarging, hard, red lump. Description. Actinomycosis is a relatively rare infection occurring in one out of 300,000(1/300,000) people per year. It is characterized by the presence of a lump or mass that often forms, draining sinus tracts to the skin surface. <P> Back to Top Causes. Actinomycosis is usually caused by an anaerobic bacteria called Actinomyces israelii, which is a common and normally not disease-causing (nonpathogenic) organism found in the nose and throat. Because of the bacteria's normal location in the nose and throat, actinomycosis most commonly appears in the face and neck. <P> Actinomycosis is a rare type of infectious bacterial disease. Unlike other infections, actinomycosis is able to move gradually and infiltrate the body's tissue, causing swelling and inflammation. Eventually there is tissue damage and scaring, pus-filled abscesses appear in the mouth, lungs, or gastrointestinal tract. <P> Actinomycosis is primarily caused by any of several members of the bacterial genus Actinomyces. These bacteria are generally anaerobes. In animals, they normally live in the small spaces between the teeth and gums, causing infection only when they can multiply freely in anoxic environments. Actinomyces bacteria are generally sensitive to penicillin, which is frequently used to treat actinomycosis. In cases of penicillin allergy, doxycyclin is used. Sulfonamides such as sulfamethoxazole may be used as an alternative regimen at a total daily dosage of 2-4 grams. <P> Actinomycosis is an infectious bacterial disease caused by Actinomyces species such as Actinomyces israelii or A. gerencseriae. It can also be caused by Propionibacterium propionicus, and the condition is likely to be polymicrobial aerobic anaerobic infection. Actinomyces bacteria are generally sensitive to penicillin, which is frequently used to treat actinomycosis. In cases of penicillin allergy, doxycyclin is used. Sulfonamides such as sulfamethoxazole may be used as an alternative regimen at a total daily dosage of 2-4 grams. <P> Actinomycosis is a long-term infection that causes sores, or abscesses, in the body’s soft tissues. Actinomycosis is usually found in the mouth, nose, throat, lungs, stomach, or intestines. It rarely appears elsewhere in the body, but usually only if there is a break in the skin. <P> MICROBIOLOGY. Actinomycosis is an uncommon, indolent, progressively invasive bacterial infection caused by organisms of the Actinomyces species, which are non-motile, filamentous, branching, gram-positive and predominantly anaerobic bacteria. <P> Actinomycosis is a rare infectious bacterial disease caused by Actinomyces species. The majority of bacterial infections remain in one area of the body-the body's tissues stop the infection from spreading. In cases of actinomicosis the bacteria do gradually spread through tissue to other parts of the body.

<P> Cooking with Truffle Oil: Truffle oil is a finishing oil not a cooking oil (Truffle oil is created when truffles are soaked in olive oil). Used to enhance foods by adding to them after preparation. Truffle oils are generally not used in cooking, as the heat adulterates their flavors. Truffle oil is more of a flavoring or seasoning (that gives a burst of flavor) and should only be used lightly on your foods or dishes. The best use for truffle oil is summed up in one word, drizzle over foods. Experiment by adding a little truffle oil to some of your favorite dishes. <P> Truffle oil is an oil that seemingly comes from truffles. In fact, truffle oil is a synthetic oil that is derived from chemicals, which are then infused into olive oil. So, lets clear the myth again most of the truffle oil products in the market are not made from truffles. Only a select few companies produce authentic truffle oil, one that is extracted from truffles. Most of the truffle oil on the market still doesn't contain any real truffle ingredients. In fact, it never even touched truffles. It only contains chemicals added to olive oil, or in some cases, grapeseed oil. The chemicals added are 2,4 - dithiapentane, which is a ester. <P> White Truffle Oil vs. Black Truffle Oil: Truffle oil is top-quality olive oil that has been infused with either white or black truffles. Both types of truffles have an earthy, mushroom like flavor. Truffle oil was originally created when truffles are soaked in olive oil. Truffle oil is more of a flavoring or seasoning (that gives a burst of flavor) and should only be used lightly on your foods or dishes. The best use for truffle oil is summed up in one word, drizzle over foods. Experiment by adding a little truffle oil to some of your favorite dishes. <P> Truffle oil is a cooking oil, such as olive or sunflower oil, that has been infused with the aroma of white or black truffles. The intense aroma and flavor of truffle oil doesn’t come from actual truffles but a chemical compound that resembles it closely, often marked on the bottle label as “natural flavors.”. In small amounts, truffle oil adds an intriguing earthiness to vinaigrettes. A few drops just before serving add heady fragrance and luxurious flavor. Because the flavor difference between white and black truffles is subtle, white and black truffle oil may be used interchangeably in cooking. As with all other oil, store truffle oil away from light and heat <P> Truffle oil is meant to be a finishing oil, rather than a cooking oil used for sauteing sautéing or. Frying this means’it s best used just before: serving drizzled over, soup, risotto or seared, fish or used in combination with olive oil and whisked into a simple. vinaigrette In small amounts, truffle oil adds an intriguing earthiness to vinaigrettes. A few drops just before serving add heady fragrance and luxurious flavor. Because the flavor difference between white and black truffles is subtle, white and black truffle oil may be used interchangeably in cooking. As with all other oil, store truffle oil away from light and heat. <P> Truffle oil is commonly used to make truffle fries, which feature French fries tossed in truffle oil, Parmesan cheese, pepper, and sometimes other ingredients. Some pasta dishes and whipped dishes such as mashed potatoes or deviled eggs incorporate truffle oil. Truffle oil may be incorporated into a pizza, as well. Truffle oil, available in all seasons and steady in price, is popular with chefs (and some diners) because it is much less expensive than actual truffles, while possessing some of the same flavors and aroma. The emergence and growth of truffle oil has led to an increase in the availability of foods claiming to be made with or flavored with truffles, in an era when the price of truffles has pushed them out of reach for most diners. <P> Truffle oil is a modern culinary ingredient, used to impart the flavor and aroma of truffles to a dish. Most truffle oils are not made from actual truffles. The emergence and growth of truffle oil has led to an increase in the availability of foods claiming to be made with or flavored with truffles, in an era when the price of truffles has pushed them out of reach for most diners. <P> Truffle oil is used as a lower-cost and convenient substitute for truffles, to provide flavoring, or to enhance the flavor and aroma of truffles in cooking. Most truffle oil, however, does not contain any truffles.

how much sugar per day for elderly
|
<P> A person who eats 2,000 calories daily should not consume more than the equivalent of 6 teaspoons of oil daily. See a chart showing how much to eat from each food group to reach a daily calorie amount. A woman over age 50 should consume about. 1 1,600 calories a day if her level of physical activity is low (only performs activities associated with typical day-to-day life)\. 2 1,800 calories daily if she is moderately active (walks the equivalent of 1.5 to 3 miles a day at 3 to 4 miles per hour). <P> Women should limit sugar intake to no more than 6 teaspoons per day, which provides about 100 calories. Men should limit sugar intake to no more than 9 teaspoons, or about 150 calories. In contrast, the average adult consumes 22 teaspoons per day. This is equal to about 3,550 pounds of sugar in a lifetime. The consumption of added sugar accounts for an intake of 500 calories per day, which can cause a weight gain of 1 pound per week. <P> The Institute of Medicine's Food and Nutrition Board recommends that people between the ages of 51 and 70 consume no more than 1.3 grams of sodium each day, an amount that is roughly equivalent to half of a teaspoon of salt. Seniors older than 71 should limit themselves to 1.2 grams. <P> The average American consumes 3 pounds of sugar a week and 130 pounds a year, reports Forbes.com. This is equal to about 3,550 pounds of sugar in a lifetime. The consumption of added sugar accounts for an intake of 500 calories per day, which can cause a weight gain of 1 pound per week. <P> The World Health Organization is dropping its sugar intake recommendations from 10 percent of your daily calorie intake to 5 percent. For an adult of a normal body mass index (BMI), that works out to about 6 teaspoons -- or 25 grams -- of sugar per day. Many people don't realize much of the sugar they take in are hidden in processed foods, according to WHO. A can of soda may contain up to 10 teaspoons or 40 grams of sugar <P> The recommended sugar intake for adult women is 22 grams of sugar per day, for adult men, it’s 36 grams daily, and for children, it’s 12 grams a day. <P> A person who eats 2,000 calories per day should eat 6 ounces of grain foods daily. At least half (3 ounces) of the grain foods eaten should be whole grains. Approximately one ounce of grain foods counts as a serving. This is about one slice of bread, one roll, or one small muffin. A woman over age 50 should consume about. 1 1,600 calories a day if her level of physical activity is low (only performs activities associated with typical day-to-day life)\. 2 1,800 calories daily if she is moderately active (walks the equivalent of 1.5 to 3 miles a day at 3 to 4 miles per hour). <P> Recommendations vary based on organization. For example, the World Health Organization recommends keeping added sugar intake to 10% of total calories. For the average 2000 calorie-diet that's a maximum of 50 grams. The American Heart Association recommends 6 teaspoons of sugar for women and 9 for men (1 teaspoon of sugar has about 4g of sugar). The primary source of added sugars are soft drinks and other sugar-sweetened beverages. <P> For an average 2000-calorie diet, the World Health Organization recommends that a maximum of 10% of the total calories come from added sugar. This equates to less than 50 grams of added sugar per day. 1 Reducing daily intake of sugar can improve diabetes control. 2 The amount of sugar eaten daily can vary based on activity level and overall health. 3 Be sure your physician is aware of any specific dietary modifications. 4 Women may reduce the daily sugar intake to 17 g per day and men can aim for 25 g per day. <P> The World Health Organisation suggests that adults should eat no more than 50 grams of sugar (12 teaspoons) per day to avoid the risks of obesity and tooth decay. The UN body even advises that limiting ourselves to 25 grams – or 5% of our daily energy intake – would provide “additional health benefits.”. In Portugal that rises to 25%. So Portuguese adults should be consuming 80% less sugar every day if they are to meet the WHO ’s ultimate recommendation of 5% energy intake (25 grams) of sugar per day.

<P> Incubating Pheasant eggs takes between 22-29 days, with egg turning ending at day 23 (or day 19 for breeds with shorter incubation times). The humidity level in the incubator plays the biggest role in successful artificial incubation of pheasant eggs. It is recommended that you maintain the humidity level at 60%. This converts to a wet bulb temperature of 86 - 87 degrees F. <P> The normal incubation time of pheasant eggs is 23-25 days. Time will be affected by incubation temperature, genetics, and management. We use a phenol fogging program: Tri-phenolR256 at 2 oz per gallon; put into automatic fogger after making a set; run for 15 minutes or enough to saturate the air in the room. Day 1 - 20 (Incubator) the temperature should be 99.4 F and the humidity should be 83-84 F wet bulb (53% relative humidity). Day 21 - 25 (Hatcher) the temperature should be 98 <P> gbwf.org 1997-2012, Dan Cowellhttp://www.gbwf.org/pheasants/pheasant_chart.html avicultural forums pheasants & peafowl grouse francolins & partridge quail cracids guineafowl & turkey megapodes hoagba ggbba links facebook Animal Wonders contact.

After reviewing the directory, I chose the species that are more commonly kept in collections. For incubation information of the rarer species, please refer to their indvidual fact sheets. <P> This gave us the information needed during incubation. If eggs are not losing enough weight we need to lower the humidity slightly or raise the humidity if they are losing too much weight.

We are getting more eggs pheasants of incubation than expected this year. We have over 250 eggs in incubation and growing. Since we are new, we are using the over the counter foam incubators. They work great as long as they are watched over. We have been very busy taking care of 400 eggs and many new little chicks. We also are the proud owners of a male Wood Duck, with 4 new females on the way from MN. We have constructed a 32'x32' pen with a 8'x8' pond that is self draining for easy cleaning. We have done well with Chukars this year along with Pheasants. <P> Email me when this is Available. Red Golden PheasantsThe Red Golden Pheasants is probably the most common variety of Golden Pheasants, and is usually simply referred to as the Golden Pheasant. The Golden Pheasant or Chinese Pheasant is native to dense forested and mountainous regions of China. The Golden Pheasants tail is black with cinnamon colored spots and accounts for about two thirds of birds total length. The female Golden Pheasants are much duller in coloration than the males, with mostly mottle or barred brown and buff plumage. The females will lay between 8-12 eggs and incubate for 22-23 days. <P> The Golden Pheasant is one of the most popular of all pheasant species kept in captivity. It is very beautiful, hardy, easy to keep and great for beginners. The Golden has been kept in captivity since as early as 1740 and perhaps was the first type of pheasant brought to North America. Incubation lasts about 22 to 23 days. The chicks are very easy to raise, and are often used to teach rarer species to eat. Golden chicks are easy to sex when very young. The color of the female's iris is a dark brown, while the male's is much lighter. <P> The incubation period for pheasant eggs is 23-28 days. Incubation Temperature. The temperature in the incubator for pheasant eggs is 99.5 degrees fahrenheit. Humidity Levels. The humidity level (wet bulb thermometer) for pheasant eggs is 82-88 degrees fahrenheit. Final Day Of Egg Rotation. The final day of egg rotation for pheasant eggs is day 21. Please note that all of this information is only a guide and that this information may differ according to the incubator manufacturer’s guid <P> They have been laying eggs since April. I have been incubating them in a little giant still air and have had bad luck. Most of the eggs are fertile (out of 24 eggs maybe 1 wasn't fertile) they make it until the week on incubation when I candle them and put them over into my hatching incubator. (I had better luck with the chickens) We had some probs too with the hatching incubator surging temps the first time and I've since replaced it. I've now invested in a circulated air hovabator because the other ones are crappy. Anyway I am 2 days now past the hatching date (22 days) and there is no activity.

sodium normal range
|
<P> Results. A sodium test checks how much sodium (an electrolyte and a mineral) is in the blood. The normal values listed here-called a reference range-are just a guide. These ranges vary from lab to lab, and your lab may have a different range for what's normal. Your lab report should contain the range your lab use <P> Causes. Sodium plays a key role in your body. It helps maintain normal blood pressure, supports the work of your nerves and muscles, and regulates your body's fluid balance. A normal sodium level is between 135 and 145 milliequivalents per liter (mEq/L) of sodium. Hyponatremia occurs when the sodium in your blood falls below 135 mEq/L. Many possible conditions and lifestyle factors can lead to hyponatremia, including: 1 Certain medications. <P> Sodium. Sodium is regulated by the kidneys and adrenal glands. Low sodium levels are caused by kidney disease and adrenal disease, diuretics, diarrhea, and occasionally conditions that cause fluid buildup in the body; the most common cause of high sodium is dehydration. Normal sodium levels are 136 to 142 mmol/L. CO2 helps maintain the body’s acid-base balance (pH) in concert with sodium, potassium and chloride. Bicarbonate levels that are higher or lower than normal may signify an acid/base or electrolyte imbalance, often due to dehydration or drinking too much water. The normal range of CO2 is 23 to 32 mmol/L. <P> The normal range for blood sodium levels is 135 to 145 milliequivalents per liter (mEq/L). The examples above are common measurements for results of these tests. Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. <P> Sodium levels that are far from the normal range can be fatal, so knowing the level of sodium in the body is extremely important. Normal sodium levels indicate that the body is metabolizing properly, with the cells nourished adequately and nervous system is in check. Maintaining sodium levels at normal range is important in having good mood, mental clearness and general sense of happiness. <P> Normal Levels. Blood sodium levels are measured in terms of millequivalents per liter or (mEq/L). The normal range for blood sodium is 135 to 145 mEq/L, according to Medline Plus. A physician will often begin to monitor blood sodium levels when they drop lower than the 120 mEq/L range. While some adults can function sufficiently at these levels, many may have symptoms such as fatigue, lethargy, confusion, muscle cramps and nausea. <P> The mean value and range of 24-hour UNaV in each of these datasets were within 1 SD of our previous estimate. The combined mean and normal range of sodium intake of the 129 datasets were nearly identical to that we previously reported (mean = 158.3±22.5 vs. 162.4±22.4 mmol/d). Merging the previous and new datasets (n = 190) yielded sodium consumption of 159.4±22.3 mmol/d (range = 114-210 mmol/d; 2,622-4,830mg/d). <P> A Normal blood sodium level is 135 - 145 milliEquivalents/liter (mEq/L), or in international units, 135 - 145 millimoles/liter (mmol/L). Excess sodium that is consumed in the diet will be excreted in the urine. Just like potassium and sodium, chloride can have fatal consequences when the increase or decrease is extreme. The normal serum range for chloride is 98 - 108 mmol/L. Increased chloride levels is 'hyperchloremia'. Elevated levels are seen in diarrhea, some kidney disease and sometimes in overactive parathyroid glands. <P> Back to Top Normal Results. The normal range for blood sodium levels is 135 to 145 milliequivalents per liter (mEq/L). The examples above are common measurements for results of these tests. Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories.

how much do nurses take home after taxes
|
<P> $33,696 (gross income) x 0.30 (or your tax percentage)=$10,108 to taxes. subtracted from my gross income (that we already calculated above): $33,696 (gross income) - $10,108 (money to taxes)=$23,585 take home nurse salary or $1965 per month. That sounds about right if I remember correctly! Remember this was back in 2003. According to PayScale.com, the average nurse salary today is somewhere between $38,000 and $78,000 per year ($20- $37 per hour with $26 being the average). There can be huge differences in pay from place to place. <P> Salary Paycheck Calculator How much are your wages after taxes? This powerful tool does all the gross-to-net calculations to estimate take-home (net) pay in any part of the United States. Hourly Paycheck Calculator Enter up to six different hourly rates to estimate after-tax wages for hourly employees. Gross Pay Calculator. Plug in the amount of money you'd like to take home each pay period and this calculator will tell you what your before-tax earnings need to be. <P> Overtime by law has to be paid time and a half of your taxable base rate. So, if you make $20 and hour, then your overtime pay will be $30 an hour. In the world of nursing, $30 an hour isn’t really that much extra money for an extra shift; however, over the long run it does add up. A tax home is your place of residence that you maintain and pay for while you are out on your travel assignment. Ideally, the IRS would like a travel nurse to take an assignment somewhere and then return to their tax home where they maintain a PRN or full-time nursing job. <P> That means each month, you’d make approximately $4,166.66 as your gross income. This is not the net amount, or “take home pay” that you will be able to put in the bank. From this amount, you will have deducted your Social Security taxes, Medicare taxes, and your Federal Income taxes. These totals, as an example, could amount to as much as $515, leaving you about $4,166.66-515=$3651.66. This would generally be your “take home pay.” However, some people also choose to enroll in savings or retirement plans, such as 401k. Also, many hospitals allow you to deduct your health insurance from this amount. <P> For RN's) How much do you take home after taxes???? Hi, i would like to get into nursing and was wondering how much you guys RN's take home after taxes and all. Boy am I glad to live in California! There is a local hospital I hope to work at once I finish nursing school that pays new grads $32.04 p/h. <P> According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, RNs make an average salary of $67,720 per year, and an average hourly wage of $32.56. Note: These are only averages, and if you’d like to see the average for your state, please check our RN Salary statistics page. These totals, as an example, could amount to as much as $515, leaving you about $4,166.66-515=$3651.66.

Also, many hospitals allow you to deduct your health insurance from this amount. <P> 1 Hi, i would like to get into nursing and was wondering how much you guys RN's take home after taxes and all. I think pay depends on where you live. I live in Oklahoma and I started out as a new grad at $16.03 an hour. I work night shift 7p to 7a and I make 2.00 to 4.50 shift differential. With all that considered I take home around $1100 every two weeks working three 12's a week. It sucks, because I take on the same work load as experienced nurses who make more money

<P> Around that date, the price of a liter of gasoline in Turkey reached $2.6 and diesel $2.4, according to International Energy Agency (IEA) data. With the recent price hikes in 2012, gas and diesel prices hit TL 4.92 ($2.71 per liter) and TL 4.81, respectively. On average, US drivers consume 1.49 US gallons (5.6 L) of gasoline per day, or about 10.44 US gallons (39.5 L) per week. As of March 2013, the average price for 87 octane gasoline was $3.22 a US gallon (85¢/L). <P> Finished motor gasoline amounts to 44% of the total US consumption of petroleum products. This corresponds to 18.5 exajoules per year. As of 2012 the cost of crude oil accounted for 62% of the cost of a gallon of gasoline in the United State while refining accounted for just 12%. Taxes and distribution/marketing accounted for 12% and 14% respectively. On average, US drivers consume 1.49 US gallons (5.6 L) of gasoline per day, or about 10.44 US gallons (39.5 L) per week. As of March 2013, the average price for 87 octane gasoline was $3.22 a US gallon (85¢/L). <P> Fuel consumption is based on the estimated average in-use fuel economy: 24.1 miles per gallon (mpg) for passenger cars and 17.3 mpg for light trucks. Fuel consumption is based on the estimated. average in-use fuel economy: 24.1 miles per gallon (mpg) for passenger cars and 17.3 mpg for. light trucks. These values are also from the MOBILE6.2 model. These emission factors and fuel consumption rates are for gasoline-fueled passenger cars and. light-duty trucks only. <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. The average annual distance driven per car in the USA is given as 17862 km (11099 miles). At a fuel consumption of 30 miles per gallon (12.75 km per liter) this would consume 370 gallons (1401 liters) per year. What is the average mileage per car per year? The mileage of a car per year depends on how much you drive it. If you're a commuter that drives 45 minutes to get to work every day, you're going to rack up more miles than a … guy who drives his kids 30 seconds to school. <P> EIA's latest STEO forecasts that Brent crude oil prices will average $68 per barrel (bbl) in 2015, with prices up to $5/bbl below that annual average early in the year. The forecast for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil spot prices averages $63/bbl in 2015. Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, Short-Term Energy Outlook. The average U.S. household is expected to spend about $550 less on gasoline in 2015 compared with 2014, as annual motor fuel expenditures are on track to fall to their lowest level in 11 years. <P> In 2014, about 136.78 billion gallons 1 (or 3.26 billion barrels) of gasoline were consumed 2 in the United States, a daily average of about 374.74 million gallons (or 8.92 million barrels). 3 This was about 4% less than the record high of about 142.35 billion gallons (or 3.39 billion barrels) consumed in 2007. 1 There are 42 U.S. gallons in a barrel. 2 EIA uses product supplied to represent approximate consumption of petroleum products. <P> The average efficiency is 21.5 miles per gallon. So the average gasoline used by each vehicle is 580 gallons annually. According to the US Bureau of Transit Statistics there were 250,844,644 registered passenger vehicles in 2006. The population of the USA is 300,000 people. Let's assume the 'average' person drives 20 miles round trip to work each week, and another 30 miles for errands, etc. 20 x 5 = 100 miles for work + 30 for all else = 130 miles (avg) per week. If we figure the 'average' car gets 24 MPG, then divide 24 into 130, which = 5.41 gallons of fuel each week. Multiply 5.41 x 52 (weeks) and that equals = 281.32 gallons

difference between switching power supply and linear
|
<P> Unlike a linear power supply, the pass transistor of a switching-mode supply continually switches between low-dissipation, full-on and full-off states, and spends very little time in the high dissipation transitions, which minimizes wasted energy. Switched-mode power supplies may also be substantially smaller and lighter than a linear supply due to the smaller transformer size and weight. <P> Please sign in to vote on this Guide. Below is the Difference between Switch Mode (Switching / Regulated) and Linear (Unregulated) Power Supplies. Switch Mode (Regulated). A switched-mode power supply (SMPS) works on a different principle. AC mains input is directly rectified without the use of a transformer, to obtain a DC voltag <P> The newest designs offer persuasive advantages compared with linear power supply technology. Power supplies serve extensive wireless communications applications. Basic distinctions between linear and switching power supplies make a difference, depending on the specific application. Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages. Transformers Power supplies contain two main circuits: a primary side and a secondary side. The .. <P> In these cases, a low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator is generally used as a low-cost, high-accuracy, and easy-to-implement power supply solution. However, a switch-mode power supply (SMPS) more easily meets other possible system design goals such as efficiency and battery run time. Differences Between LDOs And SMPSs. <P> A Switching DC power supply (also known as switch mode power supply) regulates the output voltage through a process called pulse width modulation (PWM). The PWM process generates some high frequency noise, but enables the switching power supplies to be built with very high power efficiency and small form factor. There are two main designs for the DC power supplies: Linear DC Power Supplies and Switching DC Power Supplies. <P> A linear power supply operates pretty much like a voltage divider that constantly changes resistance to regulate the output voltage. The current that goes into it is the same as the current that goes out of it and the difference between the input and output is wasted. A linear power supply is often used because of its simplicity. Linear regulators exist in packaged ICs that only need a rectified voltage source to operate. In comparison, a switched mode power supply is very complex and requires a handful of ICs as well as inductors. <P> The main disadvantage of a switched mode power supply compared to a linear power supply is noise. The voltage oscillations and the constant connecting and disconnecting from the source create too much electrical noise that can interfere with other nearby electronics. A linear power supply is often used because of its simplicity. Linear regulators exist in packaged ICs that only need a rectified voltage source to operate. In comparison, a switched mode power supply is very complex and requires a handful of ICs as well as inductors. <P> In this regard, there are two very common types of power supply, the linear and the switched mode. The main difference between the two is the way they operate. Linear power supplies provide a constant voltage at all times while the power provided by a switched mode power supply constantly varies. A linear power supply is often used because of its simplicity. Linear regulators exist in packaged ICs that only need a rectified voltage source to operate. In comparison, a switched mode power supply is very complex and requires a handful of ICs as well as inductors. <P> Briefly, there is very little difference between the various switching power supplies from the brand-name suppliers. But the difference between switchers and linear designs is a matter of weight, efficiency, heat buildup, etc.

<P> For a shorter period between planting and harvest, you may choose to start the onion seeds indoors eight to 12 weeks before the last frost date for your area and transplant seedlings outdoors when they grow to 1/4 inch in diameter, about two to four weeks before the last frost date for your area. These sets fully mature and are ready for harvest in about 2 months. Sets are also less susceptible to disease, but growing from sets limits your choice in onion varieties. Smaller sets produce best, so choose sets that are no larger than 1/2 inch in diameter for best results. <P> Onions can be grown from seeds, sets (young, small dormant bulbs grown the previous year), or transplants. Growing onions from seed can take as much as five months. You will find seed for many varieties or cultivars of onions. Sets are easer to plant than seeds or transplants. • Starting seeds. Sow onion seeds indoors 8 to 12 weeks before the last average frost date. Sow seeds in pots, flats, or trays. Thin seedlings to one inch apart when they are four inches tall. <P> | 7 Responses. close up of onion growing on the field. From planting to harvest depends on the type and whether they were started from sets (50 to 60 days), seeds (110-125 days), or transplants (70 to 90 days). Harvest when one-forth to one-half of the tops of the onions have fallen down. Planting onions from bulb sets is likely the quickest method for a gardener to establish vigorous and strong onions. Green onions can be harvested when they are around five inches high, the higher they are the stronger the flavor. If you planted from sets or transplants they will be ready to eat in about a month. <P> For the quickest harvest, plant onion sets, which are small, dormant plants grown the previous year. These sets fully mature and are ready for harvest in about 2 months. Sets are also less susceptible to disease, but growing from sets limits your choice in onion varieties. Smaller sets produce best, so choose sets that are no larger than 1/2 inch in diameter for best results. <P> Outdoors, sow seeds thickly in rows about 1/2 inch deep. You can try mixing in radish seeds both to mark the planted rows and as a trap crop to lure root maggots away from the onions. Thin seedlings to 1 inch apart, and thin again in four weeks to 6 inches apart. For transplants or sets, use a dibble to make planting holes 2 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart. Use the closer spacing if you plan to harvest some young plants as green onions. For sets, open a furrow 2 inches deep and place the sets stem (pointed) end up 4 to 6 inches apart, and then fill in the furrow. <P> Space onion sets 4–6 inches (10.2–15.2 cm) apart, and onion seeds 1–2 inches (2.5–5.1 cm) apart. As your onions begin to grow, you can transplant them and space them further apart in order to increase their growing size. 3. Plant the onions. Get the soil ready. When you’re ready to plant, till the soil about 6 inches (15.2 cm) deep and add a layer (1 cup per 20 feet) of phosphorous fertilizer. Using a mixture such as 10-20-10 or 0-20-0 will provide an extra boost for your developing onions. <P> I planted just the root end of the bulb in vermiculite but you could use soil. It took just a few days for the onion leaves to start growing. From seed, it could take a week or more for the seeds to germinate and emerge from the soil. In south Texas, onions seeds are planted in late summer, grow all winter and harvested in May and June. Source(s): Biology instructor for 39 years. saffronesque · 7 years ago <P> Starting onion plants from seed takes the longest for onions to fully grow, but seeds give you the most choices in variety. It can take up to five months for plants to mature enough to harvest. When starting onion plants from seed, allow the soil temperature to warm to at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit before sowing. In areas with mild winters, you can plant varieties of short-day onions four weeks before the first frost in fall. These sets fully mature and are ready for harvest in about 2 months. Sets are also less susceptible to disease, but growing from sets limits your choice in onion varieties. Smaller sets produce best, so choose sets that are no larger than 1/2 inch in diameter for best results. <P> 1 Plant onions as soon as the ground can be worked in the spring, usually late March or April. 2 Make sure temperature doesn’t go below 20 degrees F. 3 For sets or transplants, plant the smaller sets 1 inch deep, with 4 to 5 inches between each plant and in rows 12 to 18 inches apart. About growing conditions and fertilizer, you won’t be able to grow large onions without the proper amount if nutrients and regular, even moisture. I would suggest 10-15-10 applied at 3 to 4 week intervals. If your soil is poor, you may have to fertilize every 2 weeks. <P> Part 2 of 2: Planting Your Onions. 1. Get the soil ready. When you’re ready to plant, till the soil about 6 inches (15.2 cm) deep and add a layer (1 cup per 20 feet) of phosphorous fertilizer. Using a mixture such as 10-20-10 or 0-20-0 will provide an extra boost for your developing onions.

what are hellbender predators
|
<P> Eastern hellbenders are found in small, isolated territories from the state of New York south to Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, and westward to central Missouri and possibly southeastern Kansas. The Ozark hellbender is restricted to small sections of southeastern Missouri and northeastern Arkansas. “What eats me”. Hellbenders and their larvae are vulnerable to large fish, turtles, water snakes, and humans. Adults put up a formidable defense against predation, though, that includes camouflage and slime. Eastern hellbenders are generally described as dark green or gray dorsally and lighter on the underside. <P> Measuring about two feet in length, the hellbender (also known as a snot otter!) is one of the largest species of salamanders in the world. The hellbender's only close relatives are the giant salamanders of China and Japan. Built for Water. Hellbenders are made for life in the water. They usually don't swim, but they walk on the bottom of the stream bed. Their slippery, flattened body moves easily through water, and their well-developed legs and oar-like tail help them walk against the current with little resistance. <P> 1 Prey: Hellbenders feed primarily on crayfish. 2 They have also been known to eat insects, snails, minnows and worms. 3 Although fishermen have reported seeing hellbenders attracted to their creel at the end of their stringer, there is no evidence that hellbenders eat live trout or impact trout populations where they occur. In Virginia, hellbenders have been observed in streams as small as 5 meters and rivers over 100 meters wide. Because of their preference for clean streams and rivers, hellbenders serve as indicators of stream health. The presence of young and adults is synonymous with good water quality. <P> Description. The eastern hellbender (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis alleganiensis) is a large, stout-bodied, fully-aquatic salamander. Its color is usually brown with darker (or lighter) markings on the back, but can range from gray, to yellowish brown to almost black. The belly is lighter and sparsely spotted if at all. In Virginia, hellbenders have been observed in streams as small as 5 meters and rivers over 100 meters wide. Because of their preference for clean streams and rivers, hellbenders serve as indicators of stream health. The presence of young and adults is synonymous with good water quality. <P> The hellbender (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis), also known as the hellbender salamander, is a species of giant salamander endemic to eastern North America. The name 'hellbender' probably comes from the animal's odd look. Perhaps it was named by settlers who thought it was a creature from hell where it's bent on returning.. Another rendition says the undulating skin of a hellbender reminded observers of horrible tortures of the infernal regions.. <P> Big Mouth. Crayfish is the food of choice for hellbenders, making up 90% of their diet. But hellbenders also feed on fish and other small aquatic (water-dwelling) animals-in fact, just about any living critter they can swallow whole. Hellbenders hunt at night, so they depend on smell and touch to find their prey. Once a hellbender locates its quarry, it opens up its large mouth and-chomp! - grabs the unlucky animal with its strong jaws. Built for Water. Hellbenders are made for life in the water. They usually don't swim, but they walk on the bottom of the stream bed. Their slippery, flattened body moves easily through water, and their well-developed legs and oar-like tail help them walk against the current with little resistance. <P> With its large, gaping mouth, the hellbender can eat an animal that is almost as big as itself. Predation: Juvenile hellbenders have many predators, including fish, turtles, water snakes and other hellbenders. Adults have few predators, but may be eaten by raccoon, mink and river otter. Typical Lifespan: The hellbender’s lifespan in uncertain. Description: The hellbender is a large, fully-aquatic salamander with a flat head, wrinkled body, and a paddle-shaped tail. Its body is usually dark grey or brown with irregular, dark spots along the back. <P> 1 Predators: Very little is known about the predators of hellbenders. 2 It is suspected that larva and juveniles could be prey to snapping turtles, watersnakes, and large predatory fish. 3 Other than humans, adults probably have few predators. In Virginia, hellbenders have been observed in streams as small as 5 meters and rivers over 100 meters wide. Because of their preference for clean streams and rivers, hellbenders serve as indicators of stream health. The presence of young and adults is synonymous with good water quality.

why was the gulf of tonkin resolution important
|
<P> Best Answer: The Gulf Of Tonkin Resolution gave LBJ and Congress the authority to increase troops levels in Vietnam without declaring war. The Gulf of Tonkin was the excuse Lyndon Johnson used to escalate the VIETNAM war. Supposedly our ships were attacked by North Vietnamese gun boats, so the resolution got us deeply mired in that war. Nick Name · 8 years ago. Thumbs up. <P> The outcome of the incident was the passage by Congress of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which granted President Lyndon B. Johnson the authority to assist any Southeast Asian country whose government was considered to be jeopardized by communist aggression. The Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution giving the President the power to use whatever force necessary to protect our interests in the area. At the time, the truth was not reported. 1965, the Viet Cong attacked an American military base near Pleiku. <P> Report Abuse. The Gulf of Tonkin was the excuse Lyndon Johnson used to escalate the VIETNAM war. Supposedly our ships were attacked by North Vietnamese gun boats, so the resolution got us deeply mired in that war. Nick Name · 8 years ago. Thumbs up. <P> It was originally claimed by the National Security Agency that a Second Gulf of Tonkin incident occurred on August 4, 1964, as another sea battle, but instead evidence was found of Tonkin ghosts (false radar images) and not actual North Vietnamese torpedo boats. The outcome of these two incidents was the passage by Congress of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which granted President Lyndon B. Johnson the authority to assist any Southeast Asian country whose government was considered to be jeopardized by communist aggression. <P> U.S. Involvement in the Vietnam War: the Gulf of Tonkin and Escalation, 1964. In early August 1964, two U.S. destroyers stationed in the Gulf of Tonkin in Vietnam radioed that they had been fired upon by North Vietnamese forces. In response to these reported incidents, President Lyndon B. Johnson requested permission from the U.S. Congress to increase the U.S. military presence in Indochina. The U.S. Navy stationed two destroyers, the Maddox and the Turner Joy, in the Gulf of Tonkin to bolster these actions. They reported an attack by North Vietnamese patrol boats on August 2, and a second attack on August 4. <P> In August, 1964, President Johnson reported to the nation that American ships had been attacked by North Vietnam gunboats in the Gulf of Tonkin, in international waters. The Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution giving the President the power to use whatever force necessary to protect our interests in the area. At the time, the truth was not reported. 1965, the Viet Cong attacked an American military base near Pleiku. Using the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, President Johnson sent in 3,500 Marines, the first official troops, to South Vietnam <P> 384, enacted August 10, 1964, was a joint resolution that the United States Congress passed on August 7, 1964, in response to the Gulf of Tonkin incident. <P> On August 4, 1964, President Lyndon Johnson announced that two days earlier, U.S. ships in the Gulf of Tonkin had been attacked by the North Vietnamese. Johnson dispatched U.S. planes against the attackers and asked Congress to pass a resolution to support his actions.

how long to cook marinated chicken in oven
|
<P> Place your chicken in a 350-degree preheated oven. Baking at a temperature higher than 350 degrees will cause the outside of your chicken to cook faster, leaving the inside raw or undercooked. Cooking time depends on the chicken's weight and cut. For example, chicken breasts may require only 20 to 30 minutes while a whole chicken will require one to two hours. Once your grill is heated, place the cooking rack on the lowest setting. Place your drained, marinated chicken on the rack and close the lid to your grill. The side closest to the bottom will cook faster; therefore, after 30 minutes, you must turn the chicken over to cook it evenly. <P> 1 Add the chicken breasts, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. 2 Marinate in the refrigerator 30 minutes to overnight. 3 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). 4 Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, or lightly grease a broiler pan. 1 Marinate in the refrigerator 30 minutes to overnight. 2 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). 3 Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, or lightly grease a broiler pan. 4 Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, and shake off excess. <P> Preheat your oven to 325 degrees and place your chicken in a nonstick roasting pan. Cover your chicken and cook it in the oven for 30 minutes to an hour to cook the inside. Remove the cover and baste your chicken with oil or marinade and cook uncovered for one to two hours, basting every 20 to 30 minutes. The oil or marinade will brown the outer skin of your chicken, leaving it crispy on the outside. Once your grill is heated, place the cooking rack on the lowest setting. Place your drained, marinated chicken on the rack and close the lid to your grill. The side closest to the bottom will cook faster; therefore, after 30 minutes, you must turn the chicken over to cook it evenly. <P> Coat a baking pan with a thin layer of cooking spray. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, and allow the excess marinade to drip off before placing them onto the baking pan. Bake the chicken breasts in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the meat's juices run clear. Remove the chicken from the oven. Allow the meat to stand for five minutes before serving <P> Heat a grill or grill pan. When the grill is hot, place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. You can also bake the thawed chicken in a 375 degree F oven for 15 minutes, or until cooked through. Marinated five breasts for several hours put the chicken on a foil lined pan, poured the leftover marinade over it and baked it for about 30 minutes (we had to turn the heat up for a bit from the 375 stated in the recipe near the end, but it did no harm to the chicken). Again delicious. <P> 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). 2 Remove chicken from bag, discarding remaining marinade. 3 Place chicken in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear. 1 Remove chicken from bag, discarding remaining marinade. 2 Place chicken in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear. 3 Note: Turn chicken occasionally while baking. <P> 1 Add wings to the marinade and place in the fridge for about 20 minutes before cooking. 2 Wings don't need to be marinated for very long. 3 Cook on a BBQ or place in a moderate oven, about 180 degrees celcius until caramalized and golden. 4 About 40 minutes.

cyanosis of the skin is caused by
|
<P> Causes of cyanosis. Cyanosis refers to bluish discoloration of skin, nail beds and mucous membranes. Normally haemoglobin carries most of the oxygen in blood. This oxygen carrying capacity of haemoglobin in the blood (present in the arteries) is called oxygen saturation. <P> Cyanosis is the medical term for a bluish color of the skin and the mucous membranes due to an insufficient level of oxygen in the blood. For example, the lips and fingernails may show cyanosis. <P> Cyanosis is a bluish hue to the skin, gums, fingernails, or mucous membranes caused by a lack of oxygen in the blood. When blood is fully oxygenated it appears bright red; when it lacks oxygen supply, the blood is a dark purple or bluish red. This lack of oxygen in the blood supply to a body part, such as the nail bed, skin, or mucous membrane, causes that body part to take on a bluish tint. Oxygen is present in your blood through hemoglobin, a red blood cell protein that carries oxygen <P> 0. Cyanosis is the abnormal blue discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes, caused by an increase in the deoxygenated haemoglobin level to above 5 g/dL. <P> Cyanosis is a physical sign causing bluish discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes. Cyanosis is caused by a lack of oxygen in the blood. Cyanosis is associated with cold temperatures, heart failure, lung diseases, and smothering. cyanosis. [sī′ənō′sis]. Etymology: Gk, kyanos, blue, osis, condition. bluish discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes caused by an excess of deoxygenated hemoglobin in the blood or a structural defect in the hemoglobin molecule, such as in methemoglobin. cyanotic, adj <P> Definition. Cyanosis is a physical sign causing bluish discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes. Cyanosis is caused by a lack of oxygen in the blood. Cyanosis is associated with cold temperatures, heart failure, lung diseases, and smothering. It is seen in infants at birth as a result of heart defects, respiratory distress syndrome, or lung and breathing problems. cyanosis. [sī′ənō′sis]. Etymology: Gk, kyanos, blue, osis, condition. bluish discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes caused by an excess of deoxygenated hemoglobin in the blood or a structural defect in the hemoglobin molecule, such as in methemoglobin. <P> Blue Skin Discoloration-Cyanosis. Cyanosis is a term used to describe a bluish tint to your skin, as well as your fingernails and fingertips. It is a condition caused by not having enough oxygen in your blood. In people with light skin, such as Caucasians, this is quite distinctive. Many of the health conditions that cause cyanosis are the result of abnormalities in the blood, lungs, or heart. Blood abnormalities may make it difficult for the blood to absorb oxygen. Lung abnormalities may be related to the following conditions: 1 a blood clot in the vessels of the lung (pulmonary embolism). <P> Cyanosis. admin | | 0 Comments. Cyanosis occurs when the blood lacks oxygen causing the skin to appear bluish or purplish. This condition could involve the lips, gums, tongue, nail beds, fingers, toes and mucous membranes.

what is ischemia brain
|
<P> Ischemia can also occur in the arteries of the brain, where blockages can lead to a stroke. About 80-85% of all strokes are ischemic. Most blockages in the cerebral arteries are due to a blood clot, often in an artery narrowed by plaque. Sometimes, a blood clot in the heart or aorta travels to a cerebral artery. <P> Causes. A stroke occurs when the blood supply to your brain is interrupted or reduced. This deprives your brain of oxygen and nutrients, which can cause your brain cells to die. A stroke may be caused by a blocked artery (ischemic stroke) or the leaking or bursting of a blood vessel (hemorrhagic stroke). <P> Ischemia leads to alterations in brain metabolism, reduction in metabolic rates, and energy crisis. There are two types of ischemia: focal ischemia, which is confined to a specific region of the brain; and global ischemia, which encompasses wide areas of brain tissue. The main symptoms involve impairments in vision, body movement, and speaking. Other effects that may result from brain ischemia are stroke, cardiorespiratory arrest, and irreversible brain damage. An interruption of blood flow to the brain for more than 10 seconds causes unconsciousness, and an interruption in flow for more than a few minutes generally results in <P> Brain ischemia (aka cerebral ischemia, cerebrovascular ischemia) is a condition in which there is insufficient blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. This leads to poor oxygen supply or cerebral hypoxia and thus to the death of brain tissue or cerebral infarction / ischemic stroke. Other effects that may result from brain ischemia are stroke, cardiorespiratory arrest, and irreversible brain damage. An interruption of blood flow to the brain for more than 10 seconds causes unconsciousness, and an interruption in flow for more than a few minutes generally results in <P> Brain ischemia is insufficient blood flow to the brain, and can be acute or chronic. Acute ischemic stroke is a neurologic emergency that may be reversible if treated rapidly. Chronic ischemia of the brain may result in a form of dementia called vascular dementia. Ischemia, also spelled as ischaemia or ischaemia (/ischæmia/), ɪˈskiːmiə is a restriction in blood supply to, tissues causing a shortage of oxygen and glucose needed for cellular (metabolism to keep tissue). Alive ischemia is generally caused by problems with blood, vessels with resultant damage to or dysfunction of. tissue <P> Ischemia is the medical term for what happens when your heart muscle doesn't get enough oxygen. Ischemia usually happens because of a shortage of blood and oxygen to the heart muscle. It is usually caused by a narrowing or blockage of one or more of the coronary arteries (which supply blood to the heart muscle). In many cases ischemia is a temporary problem. <P> Ischemia is any reduction in blood flow resulting in decreased oxygen and nutrient supplies to a tissue. Ischemia may be reversible, in which case the affected tissue will recover if blood flow is restored, or it may be irreversible, resulting in tissue death. Ischemia can also be acute, due to a sudden reduction in blood flow, or chronic, due to slowly decreasing blood flow. Ischemia can occur anywhere in the body. Heart attacks and strokes can both result from ischemia. <P> Global cerebral ischemia occurs when blood flow to the brain is stopped or reduced. This is usually triggered by cardiac arrest. If adequate circulation is restored within a short period of time, symptoms may be brief. However, if a large amount of time passes before restoration, brain damage can be permanent. Focal cerebral ischemia. Focal cerebral (or brain) ischemia occurs when a blood clot has blocked a cerebral vessel. Focal cerebral ischemia reduces blood flow to the particular brain region, increasing the risk of cell death to that area. It can be either caused by thrombosis or embolism <P> Cerebral Ischemia. Cerebral ischemia or brain ischemia, is a condition that occurs when there isn’t enough blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. This leads to limited oxygen supply or cerebral hypoxia and leads to the death of brain tissue, cerebral infarction, or ischemic stroke. Focal cerebral ischemia. Focal cerebral (or brain) ischemia occurs when a blood clot has blocked a cerebral vessel. Focal cerebral ischemia reduces blood flow to the particular brain region, increasing the risk of cell death to that area. It can be either caused by thrombosis or embolism

somatic cell mutation
|
<P> An alteration in DNA that occurs after conception. Somatic mutations can occur in any of the cells of the body except the germ cells (sperm and egg) and therefore are not passed on to children. These alterations can (but do not always) cause cancer or other diseases. <P> Germinal and Somatic Mutations. Somatic cells give rise to all non-germline tissues. Mutations in somatic cells are called somatic mutations. Because they do not occur in cells that give rise to gametes, the mutation is not passed along to the next generation by sexual means. Mutations can occur in either cell type. If a gene is altered in a germ cell, the mutation is termed a germinal mutation. Because germ cells give rise to gametes, some gamete s will carry the mutation and it will be passed on to the next generation when the individual successfully mates. <P> After birth, a somatic mutation can lead to the development of a cancer if the growth regulators in the cell are damaged, causing the cell to engage in out of control replication, creating new cells which will do the same. If a somatic mutation occurs in utero, all of the cells descended from the somatic cell will carry the mutation. This results in a situation called genetic mosaicism, in which some of the cells in someone's body have DNA which is different from other cells. <P> A somatic mutation is a genetic mutation which occurs in a somatic cell after conception. These mutations can lead to a variety of medical issues, and lay people commonly associate them specifically with cancers. If a somatic mutation occurs in utero, all of the cells descended from the somatic cell will carry the mutation. This results in a situation called genetic mosaicism, in which some of the cells in someone's body have DNA which is different from other cells. <P> 1 Mutations that occur in the somatic cells may disrupt the function of that particular cell, causing it to die, or causing it to become cancerous (highly proliferative and nasty!). 2 The cell has biological repair mechanisms which can restore the original configuration of DNA after mutation. 1 Mutations affecting the germ (spermatogonial or oogonial) cells are the only mutations with evolutionary consequences. 2 <P> Somatic evolution is the accumulation of mutations in the cells of a body during a lifetime, and the effects of those mutations on the fitness of those cells. Somatic evolution is important in the process of aging as well as the development of some diseases, including cancer. <P> Posted on. (Answer #1). Somatic mutations are mutations that occur in cells of the body not including those cells that are responsible for reproduction. This means that these mutations do not happen in the sperm cells or the egg cells. This is because the mutations are not possible in germ cells, which are also known as the sperm and the egg. Thus the mutation is not inheritable. Some examples of somatic mutations are: 1 When someone is exposed to too much sun and develops cancer. 2 Smoking cigarettes and developing lung cancer. <P> Germinal and Somatic Mutations Eukaryotic organisms have two primary cell types --- germ and somatic. Mutations can occur in either cell type. If a gene is altered in a germ cell, the mutation is termed a germinal mutation. Because germ cells give rise to gametes, some gamete s will carry the mutation and it will be passed on to the next generation when the individual successfully mates. <P> Alterations in DNA that occur after conception. Somatic mutations can occur in any of the cells of the body except the germ cells (sperm and egg) and therefore are not passed on to children. These alterations can (but do not always) cause cancer or other diseases <P> point mutation a mutation resulting from a change in a single base pair in the DNA molecule. somatic mutation a genetic mutation occurring in a somatic cell, providing the basis for mosaicism. suppressor mutation the correction of the effect of a mutation at one locus by a mutation at another locus.

Oregano needs only a moderately fertile soil to thrive in, though drainage and friability are important. Plant outdoors 12 inches apart after all danger of frost has passed. Plants are easily started from seed, stem cuttings, or mature root division. <P> Overview: Culinary oregano is a signature flavor of many Italian, Mexican and Spanish dishes. Most cooks are familiar with it in its dried form, but oregano is a hardy perennial plant that is easy to grow in the home garden. A handful of plants will provide you with enough oregano to use fresh in season and to dry for use throughout the winter. <P> Plant Height. Oregano usually grows to a height of 12 to 18 inches (30 - 45cm). Oregano plants should be spaced between 12 and 15 inches (30 and 38 cm) apart. Oregano will grow in a pH range between 6.0 (mildly acid) and 9.0 (strongly alkaline) with a preferred range between 6.0 and 8.0.

<P> Polar bear habitat. The polar bear's Latin name, Ursus maritimus, means 'sea bear-an apt name for this amazing species which spends much of its life in, around, or on the ocean. Polar bears are found throughout the circumpolar Arctic. They're frequently seen along or near coasts and on islands, but they spend the majority of their lives on the sea ice. Sea ice is vital to polar bears. It provides a platform for them to hunt, live, breed, and in some cases, create maternal dens. <P> Polar bears are found across the Arctic. They are most abundant in areas with annual sea ice and productive ringed seal populations. There are five nations with polar bears: U.S. (Alaska), Canada, Russia, Greenland (Kingdom of Denmark), and Norway (Svalbard). Polar bears do not live in Antarctica. <P> “Where I live”. Polar bears live at the top of the world. They range across the circumpolar north, crossing the boundaries of five nations: Canada, Russia, the United States (Alaska), Denmark (Greenland) and Norway. More than 60% of all polar bears live primarily in Canada <P> black bears live in north America and is the most common species of bears. They live in forested areas. They live through out the froests of North America. Brown Bears live in … the froests of North America and now are found in Northern Mexico. <P> Of all the bear species, the brown bear is the most common and is found in Western Europe, western North America, and Asia. The American black bear is the inhabitant of North America while polar bears are limited to Arctic and Polar Regions. The polar bears inhabit all throughout the range of Arctic and Polar Regions that can be as far south as Newfoundland Island. Human’s absence in these cooler regions allows the largest carnivore to retain its original habitat. They are known to reside in the north of 88 o in the James Bay in Canada. <P> The polar bear is found in the Arctic Circle and the nearby islands. They can be found in good numbers in Alaska, Norway, Denmark, Russia and Canada. There are smaller populations in the surrounding regions near the Arctic pole.

Rensselaer County is leading the fight against underage drinking by supporting Frank\'s Law.This resolution was passed on June 12th 2007 by the Rensselaer County Legislature urging NYS Legislature to establish statewide madatory bail standards for crimes that result in the death of an innocent person. <P> The full name of the bill is the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, but it is better known and most often referred to as Dodd-Frank. In simple terms, Dodd-Frank is a law that places major regulations on the financial industry. It grew out of the Great Recession with the intention of preventing another collapse of a major financial institution like Lehman Brothers. <P> Franks Hearing Law & Legal Definition. Franks Hearing is a hearing to determine whether a police officer's affidavit used to obtain a search warrant that yields incriminating evidence was based on false statements by the police officer. <P> In this way, Romance speakers came to be seen as Franks in some contexts. The Salian Franks lived on Roman-held soil between the Rhine, Scheldt, and Meuse rivers in what is now Northern France, Belgium and the southern Netherlands. The kingdom was acknowledged by the Romans after 357 AD. <P> The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, commonly referred to as simply Dodd-Frank, is supposed to lower risk in various parts of the U.S. financial system.

Its complete term is Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform. This was issued as a law by President Barrack Obama in July of 2010. This act is basically a way of producing financial regulatory reform and as a response to different economic issues. This is termed as Dodd-Frank since it was initially proposed by Barney Frank from the House of Representatives and Chris Dodd from the Senate Banking Committee. Since they were the ones who reported the said bill, it was named after them. <P> And it allowed some irresponsible lenders to use hidden fees and fine print to take advantage of consumers. To make sure that a crisis like this never happens again, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act into law. The most far reaching Wall Street reform in history, Dodd-Frank will prevent the excessive risk-taking that led to the financial crisis. Wall Street Reform: The Dodd-Frank Act.

what is peripheral oedema
|
<P> Edema. Peripheral oedema (symptom description): Peripheral oedema is listed as a type of or related-symptom for symptom Edema. Peripheral oedema (symptom description): For a medical symptom description of 'Peripheral oedema', the following symptom information may be relevant to the symptoms: Edema (type of symptom). However, note that other causes of the symptom 'Peripheral oedema' may be possible. <P> A very common place to see edema is in the feet, ankles and lower legs. Edema is fluid build up which may occur in any part of your body. However, due of the effects of gravity, the fluid more commonly appears as painless swelling in the lower legs. Common Causes of Peripheral Edema. As a person gets on in years, he or she is more likely to have a gathering of edema fluid in their lower legs when they stand or sit too long. They may also see a tightness and swelling the shoes and socks are removed at the end of the day. <P> 1 Edema is a swelling, usually of the legs, due to the accumulation of excessive fluid in the tissues. 2 The edema that occurs in diseases of the heart, liver, and kidneys is mainly caused by salt retention, which holds the excess fluid in the body. The swelling is the result of the accumulation of excess fluid under the skin in the spaces within the tissues. All tissues of the body are made up of cells and connective tissues that hold the cells together. This connective tissue around the cells and blood vessels is known as the interstitium. <P> Oedema (formerly known as dropsy or hydropsy) is observable swelling from fluid accumulation in body tissues. Oedema most commonly occurs in the feet and legs, where it is referred to as peripheral oedema. The swelling is the result of the accumulation of excess fluid under the skin in the spaces within the tissues. All tissues of the body are made up of cells and connective tissues that hold the cells together. <P> Introduction. Oedema is the medical term for fluid retention in the body. The build-up of fluid causes affected tissue to become swollen. The swelling can occur in one particular part of the body – for example, as the result of an injury – or it can be more general. <P> Peripheral Edema is a swelling, usually of the legs, due to excessive fluid in the tissues. Standing for an extended period of time or sitting with your legs left hanging for prolonged period of time, especially in hot weather, causes excess fluid accumulation in your legs and ankles. <P> Edema Overview. Edema (or Oedema) is the abnormal accumulation of fluid in certain tissues within the body. The accumulation of fluid may be under the skin-usually in dependent areas such as the legs (peripheral edema, or ankle edema), or it may accumulate in the lungs (pulmonary edema). <P> Leg swelling related to fluid buildup. Leg swelling caused by the retention of fluid in leg tissues is known as peripheral edema. It can be caused by a problem with the circulatory system, the lymphatic system or the kidneys. You may also experience swelling due to fluid buildup after sitting or standing for a long time. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Peripheral edema is edema (accumulation of fluid causing swelling) in tissues perfused by the peripheral vascular system, usually in the lower limbs. In the most dependent parts of the body (those hanging distally), it may be called dependent edema. <P> Edema is observable swelling from fluid accumulation in body tissues. Edema most commonly occurs in the feet and legs, where it is referred to as peripheral edema. The swelling is the result of the accumulation of excess fluid under the skin in the spaces within the tissues.

what does the body stores excess calories as
|
<P> So what happens if you take in more or fewer calories than your body burns? You either gain or lose fat, respectively. An accumulation of 3,500 extra calories is stored by your body as 1 pound of fat -- fat is the body's way of saving energy for a rainy day. <P> If your calorie intake is low that day, your cells can convert excess amino acids to molecules that can burn as fuel. On the other hand, if you consume plenty of calories, your body has no choice but to convert the extra protein to fatty acids and store them in your adipose tissue. <P> Eating too much protein can add excess calories to your diet. Your body does not maintain a store of excess amino acids, the building blocks of protein, and you must therefore include high-quality protein in your daily diet. This nutrient contributes to muscle growth, circulatory health, tissue repair, enzyme and hormone synthesis and the development of a robust immune system. <P> Excess calories are turned into fat, and it takes 3500 extra calories to add one pound of body weight. So if you consume 500 more calories a day than what your body burns, then you will gain one pound of body weight per week. <P> Fat Storage. Once your glycogen stores are full, your body stores excess calories from carbohydrate as fat. Excess calories from fat and protein intake get stored as fat in the body as well. Adipose cells, or fat cells, store the extra calories in the form of triglycerides, a type of fatty acid. <P> Your body stores excess calories as fat. If you eat excess calories, your body stores the energy as glycogen or fat to use at a later time. These compounds get stored in your liver, muscles and fat cells. Overtime, continually eating excess calories causes your body fat stores to expand, resulting in weight gain.

how long do i have to pay for a provisional patent
|
<P> A provisional application for patent (provisional application) is a U.S. national application filed in the USPTO under 35 U.S.C. §111(b) . A provisional application is not required to have a formal patent claim or an oath or declaration. Provisional applications also should not include any information disclosure (prior art) statement since provisional applications are not examined. 1 The benefits of the provisional application cannot be claimed if the 12 month deadline for filing a nonprovisional application has expired (unless the benefit of the provisional application has been restored under 37 CFR 1.78). <P> Anything that is not included in the provisional patent application is not considered to be a part of your invention. For this reason you may hear patent attorneys explain that a provisional patent application is helpful to protect whatever is included in the application (as I said above). Therefore, an applicant who files a provisional patent application must file a corresponding non-provisional application for patent (i.e., “regular patent application”) during the 12-month pendency period of the provisional application in order to benefit from the earlier filing of the provisional application. <P> A fairly typical quote for a provisional patent application (through filing) for a moderately complex mechanical innovation is $2,5000 for attorneys fees plus the cost of the provisional filing fee (typically $130) and the cost of any professional illustrations desired (typically $200 to $300). Therefore, an applicant who files a provisional patent application must file a corresponding non-provisional application for patent (i.e., “regular patent application”) during the 12-month pendency period of the provisional application in order to benefit from the earlier filing of the provisional application. <P> If you do file the nonprovisional patent application within 12 months then the filing date of your nonprovisional patent application will be deemed to be the filing date of your earlier filed provisional patent application, at least with respect to whatever you disclosed in the provisional patent application. Therefore, an applicant who files a provisional patent application must file a corresponding non-provisional application for patent (i.e., “regular patent application”) during the 12-month pendency period of the provisional application in order to benefit from the earlier filing of the provisional <P> Anyone who has ownership rights to an invention can file a provisional patent application. Nolo's Online Provisional Patent Application is only suited for United States-based individuals, companies with fewer than 500 employees or affiliates, and nonprofits. Yes and no. When you file a provisional patent application with Nolo's Online Legal Forms, you can physically be outside of the U.S., but you must supply a mailing address within the United States -- you cannot use a foreign mailing address. <P> In order to patent your invention, you must file a regular patent application -- a more complex document -- and the patent must be approved by the USPTO. To receive the benefit of the earlier provisional patent application date, a regular patent application would have to be filed within one year. Yes and no. When you file a provisional patent application with Nolo's Online Legal Forms, you can physically be outside of the U.S., but you must supply a mailing address within the United States -- you cannot use a foreign mailing address. <P> Once you file the provisional patent application, you have a year before you must file for a regular patent. This gives you time to better assess the commercial potential of your invention. <P> Best Answer: There is no such thing as a provisional patent. There are only provisional APPLICATIONS. A provisional application is never examined and never becomes a patent. All a provisional APPLICATION does is capture a filing date the benefit of which can be claimed for a later filed full Utility Patent Application. For all the good it would do you, you can say patent pending for up to 1 year from the provisional filing date. <P> 1 For Non-Provisional Utility Applications and when Converting a Provisional Application to a Non-Provisional Application the fee is $1000. 2 But again, half of that fee will be credited toward the subsequent application fees, making the net cost of the patent search just $500. Provisional to Non-Provisional Application. In order to properly select this option, you must have already filed a Provisional Application describing your invention in the US Patent and Trademark Office within the last 12 months, and for our purposes, within the last 11 months. <P> Software —. A fairly typical quote for a provisional patent application (through filing) for a software innovation is $5,000 for attorneys fees plus the cost of the provisional filing fee (typically $130) and the cost of any professional illustrations desired (typically $300 to $500). Therefore, an applicant who files a provisional patent application must file a corresponding non-provisional application for patent (i.e., “regular patent application”) during the 12-month pendency period of the provisional application in order to benefit from the earlier filing of the provisional application.

<P> Add all of your debt up: the student loans, mortgage, car payments, any installment loans, credit card balances, the $200 you owe Uncle Joe, and anything else you need to repay. This is your total debt. To calculate your net worth, subtract your total debt from your total assets. Hopefully, that second number is much larger than the first. Remember, calculating your net worth is a valuable starting point to build goals and can help you confront the reality of your finances. <P> A Quick Estimate. For a quick estimate of your annual salary, double your hourly salary and add a thousand to the end. If you make $20 an hour, you make approximately $40,000 a year. If you make $25 an hour, you make about $50,000 a year. You can also figure out your approximate hourly salary if you know your annual salary. If you make $60,000 a year, your hourly salary is approximately $30 an hour. $75,000 a year is about $37.50 an hour. If you make an hourly wage and you'd like a more exact number for your annual salary, you first need to figure out how many hours a week you work. <P> I find it useful to calculate my net worth every month. My goal each month is to increase my net worth over the previous month, which means my expenses for the month was less than my income. I use the excess to pay down debts or increase personal savings. Now that you know about net worth and how it changes, you could use a program like Mint.com to automatically calculate your net worth in real time and manage all of your finances. If you’re worried about online security, then simply stick to the longhand calculation ever month! <P> In a nutshell, your net worth is really everything you own of significance (your assets) minus what you owe in debts (your liabilities). Assets include cash and investments, your home and other real estate, cars or anything else of value you own. I use the excess to pay down debts or increase personal savings. Now that you know about net worth and how it changes, you could use a program like Mint.com to automatically calculate your net worth in real time and manage all of your finances. <P> 1 On the other hand, if you own a home worth $100,000, a car worth $20,000, and have a $50,000 mortgage, your net worth would be a positive $70,000 (or $120,000 of assets minus your $50,000 mortgage liability). 1 For instance, you might be able to sell your five-year-old TV for $100, but replacing it with a comparable new one might cost $250. 2 We’ll pretend your household possessions add up to $25,000, for a running total of $215,000. 3 Be careful not to double-count anything. <P> The easiest way to define net worth is that it is what you own, minus what you owe. It is how much you have left over when you take everything you own, sell it, and use the proceeds to pay off what you owe. 1 Your net worth gives you a good idea of your overall wealth, your the health of your financial situation. 1 For instance, you might be able to sell your five-year-old TV for $100, but replacing it with a comparable new one might cost $250. 2 We’ll pretend your household possessions add up to $25,000, for a running total of $215,000. 3 Be careful not to double-count anything. <P> This is your target net worth. So if you are 30 years old and make $60,000 a year, you’ll be called a wealth accumulator if you have an actual net worth of $180,000 or more. To calculate your actual net worth, you simply add up all your assets, and subtract from that sum all your liabilities. <P> 3. Subtract liabilities from assets. Gathering up all the various dollar values is the most difficult part of this exercise; the actual calculation is quite simple. 1 That said, there are numerous online net worth calculators that can do the calculating for you, and which may help you keep your data more organized. 1 For instance, you might be able to sell your five-year-old TV for $100, but replacing it with a comparable new one might cost $250. 2 We’ll pretend your household possessions add up to $25,000, for a running total of $215,000. 3 Be careful not to double-count anything. <P> Your assets can be defined as everything you own that has monetary value. They may be liquid like a checking account or non-liquid like your home. If an asset is liquid, it simply means you don’t have to sell it first to realize its monetary value. A few general examples of assets are: 1 The market value of your home. You list and add up all your assets and all your liabilities. Then, you subtract your liabilities from your assets. Since determining your net worth is similar to taking a financial snapshot, you don’t consider your annual income, but rather how much money you have “in the bank” right now. <P> Calculate your net worth and more. Net worth is the value of all assets, minus the total of all liabilities. Put another way, net worth is what is owned minus what is owed. This net worth calculator helps determine your net worth. It also estimates how net worth could grow or decline over the next 10 years. Javascript is required for this calculator.

how much room do i need for a washer and dryer
|
<P> If you plan to install the washer and dryer in a closet or recessed space, allow a minimum of 18 inches above each unit, recommends Maytag. You can reduce this minimum clearance to 12 inches when using a stacked washer and dryer in a closet or recess. <P> 1 Width: Keep in mind that washers and dryers need 1 inch of space on either side for air circulation. 2 Depth: Add 6 inches of space for door clearance, dryer vents and hookups. 3 Height: Top loaders need an added 20 inches of above-machine clearance for the door. <P> Wide Loads. The average washer or dryer each measures 27 inches wide, so you'll need at least 54 inches of space just to fit the units themselves. Lowe's Home Improvement recommends adding 1 inch on each side of each of these appliances to allow for proper air circulation, for a total width of 57 inches. <P> Lowe's also recommends allowing 48 inches of free space in front of your washer and dryer so you have room to move freely when working in your laundry room. Top-loading washers average 36 inches in height, while front-loaders vary from 34 to 39 inches. <P> Measure your new washer and dryer. Add 1 inch to the width on each side of both machines for air circulation. For depth, add at least 6 inches for plumbing, electrical and vent connections. Add 20 inches to the height measurement for top-loading washers. A stackable unit is useful in a compact space but will require more room for height. To give yourself a clear pathway with room to move around open doors, leave at least 48 inches of clearance in front of the <P> Measure Your Space. 1 Width: Keep in mind that washers and dryers need 1 inch of space on either side for air circulation. 2 Depth: Add 6 inches of space for door clearance, dryer vents and hookups. 3 Height: Top loaders need an added 20 inches of above-machine clearance for the door. <P> Washers measure 25 to 28 inches deep, while dryers can vary from 25 to 32 inches in depth. Sears suggests leaving 2 inches free behind the washer to accommodate water hoses, plus 4 inches behind the dryer for ventilation.

what temp and humidity incubate duck eggs
|
<P> 1. If the incubator is not already in operation, start the incubator and allow the temperature and humidity to stabilize a day or two before setting eggs. Set the temperature at 37.5°C (99.5°F) and relative humidity at 55% (84.5°F on wet bulb thermometer). Set ventilation as recommended by the incubator manufacturer. When larger numbers of duck eggs are to be hatched, large commercial incubators (setters) and hatchers are normally used. Pekin duck eggs are kept in a setter for 25 days and then transferred on the 25th day to a hatcher where they remain until they hatch on the 28th day. <P> After spending the last 4 years hatching ducklings, I have kept accurate records of humidity (more recently using the recording software of the RCOM 20 Pro USB) and I have kept records of the weight of each egg at different times during the incubation period, in a search to find the ‘right’ humidity for duck eggs. 1 If the air sack in your duck eggs is too small, your incubator humidity is too high. 2 If the air sack is too big, your incubator humidity is too low. 3 The air sac changes slowly at first. <P> 1 If the incubator is not already in operation, start the incubator and allow the temperature and humidity to stabilize a day or two before setting eggs. 2 Set the temperature at 37.5°C (99.5°F) and relative humidity at 55% (84.5°F on wet bulb thermometer). 3 Set ventilation as recommended by the incubator manufacturer. Eggs from common ducks like Pekins require 28 days to hatch. Eggs from Muscovy ducks hatch in about 35 days after setting. When larger numbers of duck eggs are to be hatched, large commercial incubators (setters) and hatchers are normally used. <P> They all developed until the end but most of those that did not hatch never pipped. I had the temperature at 99.5 degrees F to 101 degrees F with 50% - 65% humidity until lock-down and then I raised it to 70% - 75%. I had a brand-new Hova Bator with the circulated air and the automatic egg-turner. What did I do wrong-I did mist the eggs everyday. They also started hatching at day 25 when I increased the humidity. I just read the Wikipedia and it says When using an incubator the temperature should be 99.5 °F at 86% humidity for days 1-25, and 98.5 °F at 94% humidity for days 26-28.. From all I have read, this seems really high <P> 99.5 degrees Fahrenheit (37.5 degrees Celsius) is optimum incubating temp. for duck eggs with the temp. being lowered by one degree to 98.5 in the last 3 days of incubat … ion (25-28th day). Lowest temp. - highest temp. range is 97 - 102. <P> Notes: 1 Use a soft (e.g. HB) pencil to mark the extent of air sac development on the egg shell and compare it to the egg above. 2 If the air sack in your duck eggs is too small, your incubator humidity is too high. 3 If the air sack is too big, your incubator humidity is too low. 4 The air sac changes slowly at first. 1 If the air sack in your duck eggs is too small, your incubator humidity is too high. 2 If the air sack is too big, your incubator humidity is too low. 3 The air sac changes slowly at first. <P> 1 Use a soft (e.g. HB) pencil to mark the extent of air sac development on the egg shell and compare it to the egg above. 2 If the air sack in your duck eggs is too small, your incubator humidity is too high. 3 If the air sack is too big, your incubator humidity is too low. 4 The air sac changes slowly at first. 1 If the air sack in your duck eggs is too small, your incubator humidity is too high. 2 If the air sack is too big, your incubator humidity is too low. 3 The air sac changes slowly at first. <P> 1 At the time of transfer, the temperature of the hatcher should be set at 37.2°C (99°F) and the humidity set at 65% (88°F wet bulb). 2 As the hatch progresses, and eggs begin to pip, increase the humidity to 80% (93°F wet bulb), and increase ventilation openings by about 50%.

causes of excessive underarm sweating
|
<P> Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is a common disorder that produces a lot of unhappiness. An small percentage of Americans suffer from excessive sweating of the underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis) or of the palms and soles of the feet (palmoplantar hyperhidrosis). Underarm problems tend to start around puberty, while palm and sole sweating may begin earlier, often during childhood. Hyperhidrosis facts. 1 Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is a common disorder. 2 Axillary hyperhidrosis is excess sweating of the underarms. 3 Palmoplantar hyperhidrosis is excess sweating of the palms and soles. <P> Illnesses such as endocarditis or lymphoma, medications, obesity and low blood sugar are often found to be causes of generalized hyperhidrosis [source: Mayo Clinic ]. After treating the underlying cause, excessive sweating usually goes away. Focal hyperhidrosis is a different story. In this form of hyperhidrosis, excessive sweating is focused in one part of your body -- such as on your palms, the soles of your feet or your underarms -- in which you sweat for no apparent reason. <P> 1 You're Sloshing in Your Shoes Some people with excessive underarm sweat also have plantar hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating of the soles of the feet. 2 When your feet sweat too much, your socks and shoes get wet, leaving you feeling as if you've stepped in a puddle. 1 You Can't Stop Thinking About It When you have underarm hyperhidrosis, many times it's difficult to think about anything else. 2 You worry that others will notice that your shirt is always soaked, thanks to excessive underarm sweat. <P> An estimated up to 3% of the British population suffers from excessive sweating of the underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis) or of the palms and soles of the feet (palmoplantar hyperhidrosis). <P> It's a vicious circle. Stress can cause sweating, and excessive perspiration can cause stress. Relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation, deep breathing, and biofeedback can help control your triggers and lessen the effects of sweating. <P> See a Doctor. If excessive sweating causes problems in your life, talk to a doctor about treatments. Botox injections, low-level electrical currents, and some medications can help reduce heavy sweating. Call a doctor right away if you also have fever, weight loss, chest pain, or a rapid heartbeat. Stress can cause sweating, and excessive perspiration can cause stress. Relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation, deep breathing, and biofeedback can help control your triggers and lessen the effects of sweating. <P> Some people with excessive underarm sweat also have plantar hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating of the soles of the feet.

Excessive sweating is also more common in people who are overweight or out of shape. The good news is that most cases of excessive sweating are harmless. If you are worried about how much you sweat, here's information to help you decide if you should see a doctor for a medical diagnosis. <P> 1 This is due to a medical condition called hyperhidrosis, which affects almost 3 percent of the population — about 8 million Americans. 2 Though excessive underarm sweat isn't serious or life-threatening, it can be embarrassing and make you uncomfortable and anxious. 1 You Can't Stop Thinking About It When you have underarm hyperhidrosis, many times it's difficult to think about anything else. 2 You worry that others will notice that your shirt is always soaked, thanks to excessive underarm sweat. <P> Localized Sweating: Primary Focal Hyperhidrosis.

what is a phenotype in genetics
|
<P> Definition of a Phenotype. An individual's phenotype consists of the traits we can observe. These can include features of appearance, behavior, metabolism, or anything else we can detect. On the other hand, an individual's genotype is what we call the genes that help to create that phenotype. There may be one gene at work, or more than one. <P> Definition: Phenotype is defined as an organism's expressed physical traits. Phenotype is determined by an individual's genotype and expressed genes, random genetic variation, and environmental influences. Examples: Examples of an organism's phenotype include traits such as color, height, size, shape, and behavior. <P> The phenotype of an organism is the class to which that organism belongs as determined by the description of the physical and behavioral characteristics of the organism, for example its size and shape, its metabolic activities and its pattern of movement. <P> 1. phenotype-what an organism looks like as a consequence of the interaction of its genotype and the environment. physical composition, composition, make-up, makeup, constitution-the way in which someone or something is composed. Translations. <P> A phenotype is an individual's observable traits, such as height, eye color, and blood type. The genetic contribution to the phenotype is called the genotype. Some traits are largely determined by the genotype, while other traits are largely determined by environmental factors.

how old do kittens have to be to open their eyes

<P> Kittens usually open there eyes when there about 7-10 days old.Their eyes will also stay blue until they are about 6-7 weeks old.Their true eye color won't settle in until the … kitten is about 3 months of age. 3 people found this useful. Megan Hafley. 9 Contributions. <P> Newborn kittens generally open their eyes in 10 to 14 days. As far as raising new born kittens the mother generally does all the work. They are very particular about caring fo … r their babies and you shouldn't touch them really at all for about five days at least. <P> When kittens are first born they have their eyes closed... from the time they were born it will take about 7-14 days until they open their eyes! If you carry a baby kitten it will not die, assuming that that you would be gentle. <P> When cats are born they come out with a film over the eyes. A newborn kitten cannot see at birth. It is a natural occurrence and is nothing to be worried about, unless the film remains after a certain period of time. The cat cannot walk, see, or even hear until they are about six or seven days old. <P> 1 1 week-10 days-Eyes beginning to open, ears still flat. 2 A kitten this age is smaller than your hand. 4 to 6oz weight. 3 2 weeks-Eyes open bright blue color, kittens will crawl a bit on their tummies, and basically just sleep and nurse. 4 No teeth yet. 6 to 8oz. weight. <P> Their eyes will open within 5-10 days but don't open fully for another 2-3 days. All kittens eyes are blue and will remain so until 12 weeks old (very much like babies) when they will develop their true colour, although some breeds do not change colour fully until 12 months of age. Hope this makes some sense. <P> Congratulations on the kittens! As you know, kittens are born with their eyes closed. They usually open when the kittens are between 8-14 days old. The eyes will stay blue for 2 more weeks.

starch is composed of
|
<P> Starch is a polysaccharide made from glucose. Since it is only made of glucose, starch is considered a homosaccharide. The basic chemical formula of starch, (C6H10O5) n, is similar to glucose, C6H12O6, - where n is the number of glucose molecules present. <P> Starch is found in potatoes, and in grains such as corn and wheat. Starch is made up of glucose repeat units. Click on the glucose to see it in 3-D. In your body, special proteins called enzymes (which are also polymers, by the way) break starch down into glucose, so your body can burn it for energy. <P> Starch is polysaccharides which contains long carbohydrate chains of glucose. Plants store starch as their energy source, which is used during plant growth and reproduction. Several types of starch storages are found in plants, including grains, legumes, and tubers. The two forms of starch found in plants are amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is composed of long, unbranched chains of glucose molecules, whereas amylopectin is made up of long, branched chains of glucose molecules. <P> Many sugar molecules linked together is a polysaccharide. Starch, therefore, is a polysaccharide. Specifically, starch is composed of the sugar glucose. Plants use glucose to produce energy, but they're not always making glucose, just as we're constantly eating to get our energy. Much like we store up energy reserves after eating, so do plants. <P> Starch is made of Carbon, Oxygen and Hydrogen. Starch is made of glucose mainly and this is why it is referred to as a polymer of glucose. It has several units of glucose th … at are linked together. <P> Starches are carbohydrates in which glucose sugar molecules are bonded together. It is a polysaccharide which plants use to store energy for later use. Foods such as potatoes, rice, corn and wheat contain starch granules which are important energy sources for humans.

what does the poem lady lazarus mean
|
<P> Lady Lazarus is a poem spoken by—yup, that's right—Lady Lazarus. Lady Lazarus is a figment of Plath's imagination. There never was a real Lady L, no matter how hard you Google. But Plath was a smart cookie, and she used the name of her speaker as an allusion to Lazarus (from the Bible). <P> Such dark waters are the subject of Lady Lazarus, a much-quoted poem in which Plath compares herself to that Biblical figure once resurrected by Christ (and to a cat with its nine lives) because she has been resurrected from attempted suicide three times. <P> Lady Lazarus is a poem commonly understood to be about suicide. It is narrated by a woman, and mostly addressed to an unspecified person. <P> Summary. Lady Lazarus is a poem commonly understood to be about suicide. It is narrated by a woman, and mostly addressed to an unspecified person. The narrator begins by saying she has done it again.. Every ten years, she manages to commit this unnamed act. <P> Analysis. Lady Lazarus is a complicated, dark, and brutal poem originally published in the collection Ariel. Plath composed the poem during her most productive and fecund creative period. It is considered one of Plath's best poems, and has been subject to a plethora of literary criticism since its publication. <P> The poem is spoken by Lady Lazarus, a speaker who shares a lot of similarities with the poet herself. Lady Lazarus begins by telling us that she has done it again. What is this it? We don't know at first. <P> This poem Lady Lazarus by Sylvia Plath like many other protest poems should be analyzed from a psychological point of view, as an outpour of a neurotic energy through the channel of creative art, or poetry. It is in a sense a kind of therapy. <P> In the poem “Lady Lazarus”, the poet has used a lot of literary terms. The poet has shown how she plays with her skills. There are some literary terms that I feel so interesting where they appear in her poem. The most interesting literary term in the poem is the first used term called Allusion.

who can i pay my car faster
|
<P> One way to pay off your car loan faster is to finish paying off the balance in one lump sum— provided that you have the money, of course. In case you can pay off the entire loan with one payment, make sure that you negotiate with your lender first. <P> 1 Ask your lender if they can decrease the balance of your car loan if you can pay the remaining balance in one lump sum. 2 In some cases, lenders may lower the remaining balance of your car loan substantially if you can pay off the remaining balance with just one payment. <P> There are many different ways by which you can pay off your car loan faster. Doing so would also be smart since it will allow you to get out of your car debt sooner and of course, lessen the interest payments you have to pay. <P> 1 The easiest way to pay off your car loan in a quick manner is to pay more than the minimum or required monthly payment. 2 If your monthly payment is $200 a month, and you pay $300 a month instead, you will pay off your loan 50% quicker. <P> 5. Refinance Your Loan. This is one of the easiest ways to lower your payment, save interest, and pay off your loan in half the time (if you have semi-good credit, of course). Many local banks and credit unions are offering super-low interest rates on mortgage loans and car loans. <P> Use money from a tax refund or bonus from work to help pay down your loan faster. Or you can divide your monthly payment by 12 and add this amount to all future payments. For example, with my car payment I can divide $264.12 by 12 months and add $22.01 to each payment. Each payment would be increased to $286.13. <P> Another way to pay off the loan more quickly is to give an extra $100 a month to your payments if you can afford it.

Explain why oil is a nonrenewable resource.

<P> Non-renewable resources are resources for which there is a limited supply. The supply comes from the Earth itself and, as it typically takes millions of years to develop, is finite. Non-renewable resources can generally be separated into two main categories; fossil fuels and nuclear fuels. Crude oil is a non-renewable resource that builds up in liquid form between the layers of the Earth’s crust. 1 It is retrieved by drilling deep into the ground and pumping the liquid out. <P> Fossil fuels are non-renewable [non-renewable: A resource that cannot be replaced when it is used up, such as oil, natural gas or coal. ] because they will run out one day. <P> Energy comes from many sources, and to describe these sources we use two terms: renewable and non-renewable. Non-renewable energy resources cannot be replaced – once they are used up, they will not be restored (or not for millions of years). Non-renewable energy resources include fossil fuels and nuclear power. <P> 1 3. 2 Oil Is A Nonrenewable 4 Resource 3Oil is a nonrenewable resource because it takes millions of years to form. 3 Same with natural gas, coal and fossil fuels. 4 natural gas petroleum coal These are all fossil fuels. 1 Oil is not a renewable resource becauseonce you have used it, it never comes back. nonrenewable resource renewable resource. 2 3. 3 Oil Is A Nonrenewable 4 Resource 3Oil is a nonrenewable resource because it takes millions of years to form. 4 Same with natural gas, coal and <P> Coal, produced over millions of years, is a finite and non-renewable resource on a human time scale. A non-renewable resource (also called a finite resource) is a resource that does not renew itself at a sufficient rate for sustainable economic extraction in meaningful human time-frames. An example is carbon-based, organically-derived fuel. The original organic material, with the aid of heat and pressure, becomes a fuel such as oil or gas. Earth minerals and metal ores, fossil fuels (coal, petroleum, natural gas) and groundwater in certain aquifers are all non-renewable resources. <P> Confidence votes 8. Because the crude oil is produced (as are all fossil fuels) from the remains of plants and animals over millions of years. To be considered renewable, a resource must be replaceable within a reasonable amount of time (days to years). <P> Energy exists freely in nature. Some of them exist infinitely (never run out, called RENEWABLE), the rest have finite amounts (they took millions of years to form, and will run out one day, called NON-RENEWABLE). Non-renewable energy is energy from fossil fuels (coal, crude oil, natural gas) and uranium. Fossil fuels are mainly made up of Carbon. It is believed that fossil fuels were formed over 300 million years ago, when the earth was a lot different in its landscape. Air, water and land pollution are all consequences of using fossil fuels. In the pages that follow, we shall take a look at what each source of non-renewable energy is made of, and how they are used. Note that not all non-renewable energy comes from fossil fuels. There is also uranium, which is not a fossil fuel. <P> Non-Renewable Energy. Non-renewable fossil fuels (crude oil, natural gas, coal, oil shales and tar sands) currently supply Australia with more than 95 percent of our electrical energy needs. Non-renewable energy is energy produced by burning fossil fuels such as coal. <P> 1 Oil Is A Nonrenewable 4 Resource 3Oil is a nonrenewable resource because it takes millions of years to form. 2 Same with natural gas, coal and fossil fuels. 3 natural gas petroleum coal These are all fossil fuels. 1 Oil is not a renewable resource becauseonce you have used it, it never comes back. nonrenewable resource renewable resource. 2 3. 3 Oil Is A Nonrenewable 4 Resource 3Oil is a nonrenewable resource because it takes millions of years to form. 4 Same with natural gas, coal and

fragmentation english literature
|
<P> William Faulkner's novels, such as The Sound and the Fury are also fragmented in form, consisting of disjointed and nonlinear narratives. Modernist literature embraces fragmentation as a literary form, since it reinforces the fragmentation of reality and contradicts Hegelian notions of totality and wholeness. During the First World War, the world witnessed the chaos and destruction of which modern man was capable. The modernist American literature produced during the time reflects such themes of destruction and chaos. <P> Modernism is a recent period of Western or World Civilization; modernity or modernization is a historical process rather than a period. Modernization or modernity is ongoing since emergence of humanism and modern science in Classical Greece, or at least since the Renaissance. <P> Related to the theme of destruction is the theme of fragmentation. Fragmentation in modernist literature is thematic, as well as formal. Plot, characters, theme, images, and narrative form itself are broken. Take, for instance, T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land, which depicts a modern waste land of crumbled cities. During the First World War, the world witnessed the chaos and destruction of which modern man was capable. The modernist American literature produced during the time reflects such themes of destruction and chaos. <P> noun. 1 The process or state of breaking or being broken into fragments: the fragmentation of society into a collection of interest groups. More example sentences. 1 To my mind it is certainly correct that the government-imposed fragmentations are the cause of our current problems. 1.1 Computing The storing of a file in several separate areas of memory scattered throughout a hard disk. Example sentences. 1 Similar to a disk defragmenter, Registry Compactor analyzes the Registry and checks for fragmentation. 2 In addition to data fragmentation, there is the issue of data completeness and quality. <P> Modernist literature sees fragmentation and extreme subjectivity as an existential crisis, or Freudian internal conflict, a problem that must be solved, and the artist is often cited as the one to solve it. Though postmodernist literature does not include everything written in the postmodern period, several post-war developments in literature (such as the Theatre of the Absurd, the Beat Generation, and Magic Realism) have significant similarities. <P> Add comment. This essay will focus on two modernist works by Virginia Woolf and E. M. Forster, which might in fact be regarded as very different concerning their subject matter and style. Despite a relatively long time span between these works, the novels are dealing with similar modernist aspects insofar as they are both considering the changes of a society under the influence of modern life, resulting in a social fragmentation caused by political developments within Europe. <P> This is a common technique in modernist fiction: fragmentation and non-linear narratives are central features in both modern and postmodern literature. Temporal distortion in postmodern fiction is used in a variety of ways, often for the sake of irony. Historiographic metafiction (see above) is an example of this. Though postmodernist literature does not include everything written in the postmodern period, several post-war developments in literature (such as the Theatre of the Absurd, the Beat Generation, and Magic Realism) have significant similarities. <P> Best Answer: If I understand your question correctly, you are making reference to an aspect that is common to modernist and postmodern literature. Fragmentation refers the importance of non-linear narratives and the focus on styles that challenge the ideas of mimesis. <P> Fragmentation is another important aspect of postmodern literature. Various elements, concerning plot, characters, themes, imagery and factual references are fragmented and dispersed throughout the entire work. Though postmodernist literature does not include everything written in the postmodern period, several post-war developments in literature (such as the Theatre of the Absurd, the Beat Generation, and Magic Realism) have significant similarities. <P> What does it mean if a disk is fragmented? If a disk is fragmented, this means that the files in your computer are spread out all over the disk taking up too much space. This can be corrected by defragmentation whi … ch consolidate all the data. 1 person found this useful. A sentence fragment has no object; either no subject or no verb.

Using the same methodology employed to gauge the costs of depression and pain—a yearlong telephone survey of 29,000 working adults, dubbed the American Productivity Audit—Stewart’s research team calculated the total cost of presenteeism in the United States to be more than $150 billion per year. <P> This article looks at the causes of absenteeism, the costs of lost productivity and what employers can do to reduce absenteeism rates in the workplace. According to the survey, the annual costs associated with absenteeism vary by industry, with the greatest loss occurring in professional occupations (excluding nurses, physicians and teachers); the 14 occupations and corresponding costs of lost productivity are shown in Figure 1.

how does chlorophyll help your body
|
<P> Chlorophyll is good for your body from the inside out, literally. This includes body and fecal odors. When tested in a nursing home with 62 patients, one study reported improvements in the odors emanating from the test subjects. In addition to odor reduction, it also alleviated constipation and gas. <P> A number of chlorophyll researches have been focused on finding out the potential chlorophyll health benefits in humans. True enough, chlorophyll has been seen to provide health benefits to those who take them. It has anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties. <P> 1 These are only a few of the multitude benefits that chlorophyll can do to the body. 2 It has antimutagenic and anti-carcinogenic properties so that it may be helpful in protecting your body against toxins and in reducing drug side effects. <P> Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in plants. Plants use chlorophyll and light to make food. People use chlorophyll as medicine. Common sources of chlorophyll used for medicine include alfalfa (Medicago sativa) and silkworm droppings. Chlorophyll is used for bad breath and reducing colostomy odor. <P> Chlorophyll is a green pigment present in plants which facilitates the absorption of light from the sun. Chlorophyll has the ability to convert this light energy into usable form which is utilized for various processes such as photosynthesis by virtue of which the green plants prepare their own food. <P> Spirulina: is a blue green algae that is bursting with chlorophyll. It is also 60% protein, high in many other vitamins and minerals, as well as an array of antioxidants. Chlorella: is also a blue-green algae which has a very powerful detoxifying effect for the body. <P> Chlorophyll is what absorbs energy from the sun to facilitate photosynthesis in plants. Chlorophyll to plants is like blood to humans. It is important in many plant metabolic functions such as growth and respiration. <P> Best Answer: Chlorophyll does nothing to the body other than supply a source of nutrients. C55H72O5N4Mg is it's rough formula, so you can see that chlorophyll is a source of carbon, hydrogen, and less so of oxygen, nitrogen and magnesium. <P> 1 Along with other vitamins such as A, C and E, chlorophyll has been seen to help neutralize free radicals that do damage to healthy cells. 2 Chlorophyll is also an effective deodorizer to reduce bad breath, urine, fecal waste, and body odor.

<P> Some muscles are attached to bones by tendons. Others are attached to other muscles, and to skin, producing, for example, the skin twitch, the eye blink and hair erection. Parts of the walls of hollow internal organs, such as the heart, stomach and intestines and also blood vessels, are composed of muscles. See also muscular. For a complete list of named muscles see Table 13. agonistic muscle. prime mover; a muscle opposed in action by another muscle, called the antagonist. one of three kinds of muscle, composed of elongated, spindle-shaped cells in muscles not under voluntary control, such as the smooth muscle of the intestines, stomach, and other viscera. <P> Smooth muscle is found within the walls of blood vessels (such smooth muscle specifically being termed vascular smooth muscle) such as in the tunica media layer of large (aorta) and small arteries, arterioles and veins. <P> There are 3 types of muscle tissue: smooth, skeletal and cardiac. Each type of muscle does different things. Smooth muscle is also called visceral muscle. It is found in the walls of the body’s hollow organs, such as the stomach, intestines, bladder, uterus and blood vessels. Smooth muscle allows organs to relax and get bigger (expand) or tighten and get smaller (contract). Soft tissue is found all over the body. It includes tissues that connect, support or surround other structures and organs in the body. Types of soft tissue include: 1 fat. 2 muscle. 3 fibrous tissue (tendons and ligaments). 4 synovial tissue (in joints). 5 blood vessels. 6 lymph vessels. <P> Visceral, or smooth, muscle is found inside organs such as the stomach and intestines, as well as in blood vessels. It is called a smooth muscle because, unlike skeletal muscle, it does not have the banded appearance of skeletal or cardiac muscle. <P> There are three types of muscles: 1 Smooth muscle or involuntary muscle consists of spindle shaped muscle cells found within the walls of organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, bronchi, uterus, ureters, bladder, and blood vessels. 1 Smooth muscle or involuntary muscle consists of spindle shaped muscle cells found within the walls of organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, bronchi, uterus, ureters, bladder, and blood vessels. 2 Smooth muscle cells contain only one nucleus and no striations. <P> Smooth muscle is also sometimes known as Involuntary muscle due to our inability to control its movements, or Unstriated as it does not have the stripy appearance of Skeletal muscle. Smooth muscle is found in the walls of hollow organs such as the Stomach, Oesophagus, Bronchi and in the walls of blood vessels. Cardiac muscle (heart muscle). This type of muscle is found solely in the walls of the heart. It has similarities with skeletal muscles in that it is striated and with smooth muscles in that its contractions are not under conscious control. However this type of muscle is highly specialised. <P> 1 Smooth muscle or involuntary muscle is found within the walls of organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, bronchi, uterus, urethra, bladder, blood vessels, and the arrector pili in the skin (in which it controls erection of body hair).

what can you treat a established pond with
|
<P> If it is a new pond, make sure the pond and filter have been running for at least two weeks to allow the beneficial bacteria to colonize. Taking your fish home: Typically you will buy a pond fish in a plastic bag of water from your fish dealer. Minimize the amount of time from the store to your pond. Placing fish in the pond: Place the bag in the water for at least 30 minutes so that the water in the bag gradually matches the temperature of the pond. <P> Typically, Koi should be in ponds that are at least 1,000 gallons. Avoid Overstocking the Pond To maintain healthy fish and clear water, do not overload the ecosystem with too many fish. For a new pond, a good rule of thumb is one inch of fish per square foot of surface area. <P> Further information. During warm weather it is natural for the level of water in a pond to drop. Most of the ponds inhabitants can tolerate these fluctuations but in very small ponds it can be a problem, especially if there are tadpoles present. <P> Following are some tried and true methods, which will not only help you treat algae, but also help prevent it. Adding Plants to your Pond. In a natural setting, fish produce nutrients that are absorbed by plants, leaving very little for algae. <P> controlling Green Algae in Pond Water. How to Keep Your Pond Green Free. It’s the number one complaint of pond keepers – algae. This ubiquitous, unwelcome plant life in all its green glory is the bane of the pond keeper's existence and can make the simple pleasures of pond and fish keeping seem like chores. <P> Green water is caused by single-celled algae, which remains suspended in the water. If conditions are right in a pond, i.e., there are plenty of nutrients and sunlight, as many as five million algae cells per milliliter of pond water can be present. These organisms are so tiny, they pass through even the finest filter. <P> Water treatments added to the pond water are an excellent option where algae problems already exist. Green water can be controlled using repeated applications of a green water algae treatment. A variety of TetraPond products are available, depending on your pond’s condition.

what is the strongest muscle in your body and where is it located
|
<P> Ability To Exert Force. If by strongest you mean “ability to exert a force on an external object”, then a human’s strongest muscle is his or her ‘ masseter ‘ muscle. The masseter muscle is a thick muscle in the cheek and is located at the back of the jaw. It’s responsible for opening and closing your jaw during chewing <P> The largest muscle in the human body is the gluteus maximus. The gluteus maximus is located in your buttocks and its size directly corresponds to the important role it has in your everyday life. It’s main function is to keep your body erect and straight. If by strongest you mean “ability to exert a force on an external object”, then a human’s strongest muscle is his or her ‘ masseter ‘ muscle. The masseter muscle is a thick muscle in the cheek and is located at the back of the jaw. It’s responsible for opening and closing your jaw during chewing <P> The strongest skeletal muscle is usually said to be the Masseter, a relatively small and squarish muscle that creates movement at the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) or, in lay terms, the jaw. To be more specific, the masseter is considered the strongest muscle for its size. By this definition, the strongest muscle of the body is usually said to be the quadriceps femoris or the gluteus maximus.A shorter muscle will be stronger pound for pound (i.e., by weight) than a longer muscle. <P> The gluteus maximus is the largest muscle in the human body. It is large and powerful because it has the job of keeping the trunk of the body in an erect posture. It is the chief antigravity muscle that aids in walking up stairs. Masseter. The strongest muscle based on its weight is the masseter. With all muscles of the jaw working together it can close the teeth with a force as great as 55 pounds (25 kilograms) on the incisors or 200 pounds (90.7 kilograms) on the molars. Muscles of the Uterus. The uterus sits in the lower pelvic region <P> The strongest muscle IN the body tongue ON your body Gluteus Maximus (Butt-Bottom) Then again the strongest muscle has to be the one that is used and trained the most. If you’re sitting round all day your heart does not have to work hard because it is happy pumping blood at the rested rate. Report Abuse. The strongest muscle of the body is in your behind; it's also called the gluteus maximus (a muscle in the buttocks) The tongue is also one of the strongest muscles in the body. In ordinary parlance, muscular strength usually refers to the ability to exert a force on an external object—for example, lifting a weight <P> It's not the tongue, it's made up of group of 16 muscles, and while it's a cool little thing it's not the strongest in any category. The strongest muscle depends on what you mean by strongest, for pure force generation it's the gluteus maximus, simply because it is the largest muscle in the body. Meaning, if you were to dissect any muscle from the body, the gluteus maximus would lift the most weight. <P> Yet another answer to this question could be the heart. While the heart is not skeletal muscle tissue, like the muscles that move your bones, it is still a muscle. The heart is comprised of a kind of tissue called cardiac muscle tissue. Because your heart is constantly beating, it is a very strong muscle. By this definition, the strongest muscle of the body is usually said to be the quadriceps femoris or the gluteus maximus.A shorter muscle will be stronger pound for pound (i.e., by weight) than a longer muscle.

what is fibroids
|
<P> Fibroids are abnormal growths that develop in or on a woman’s uterus. Sometimes, these tumors become quite large and cause severe abdominal pain and heavy periods. In other cases, they cause no signs or symptoms at all. The growths are typically benign (non-cancerous). Symptoms of fibroids may include: 1 heavy bleeding between or during your periods that includes blood clots. 2 pain in the pelvis and/or lower back. 3 increased menstrual cramping. <P> Uterine fibroids (leiomyomata) are noncancerous growths that develop in or just outside a woman’s uterus (womb). Uterine fibroids develop from normal uterus muscle cells that start growing abnormally. As the cells grow, they form a benign tumor. <P> Uterine fibroids, also known as uterine leiomyoma, myoma, fibromyoma, fibroleiomyoma, are benign smooth muscle tumors of the uterus. Most women have no symptoms while others may have painful or heavy periods. If they push on the bladder a frequent need to urinate may occur. <P> Most fibroids do not cause any symptoms, but some women with fibroids can have: 1 Heavy bleeding (which can be heavy enough to cause anemia) or painful periods. 2 Feeling of fullness in the pelvic area (lower stomach area). 3 Enlargement of the lower abdomen. 4 Frequent urination. Some have pain and heavy menstrual bleeding. Fibroids also can put pressure on the bladder, causing frequent urination, or the rectum, causing rectal pressure. Should the fibroids get very large, they can cause the abdomen (stomach area) to enlarge, making a woman look pregnant. <P> Fibroid is also known as a uterine leiomyomata or “myoma,”. Fibroid is a lump or growth in the uterus that is not cancerous. Fibroids can be as small as a pea to as large as a basketball. Fibroids are usually round and pinkish in color, and they can grow anywhere inside or on the uterus. While some women have only one fibroid, they typically are present in groups of two or more. Complications in pregnancy of fibroids. 1 When a fibroid grows in or near the fallopian tubes. 2 Fibroids can partially or completely block the egg cells to go down and meet with sperm cells ultimately preventing pregnancy... 3 The fertilized egg cannot implant into the uterus because a fibroid is occupying its space. <P> Fibroids are muscular tumors that grow in the wall of the uterus (womb). Another medical term for fibroids is leiomyoma (leye-oh-meye-OH-muh) or just myoma. Fibroids are almost always benign (not cancerous). Fibroids can grow as a single tumor, or there can be many of them in the uterus. Some have pain and heavy menstrual bleeding. Fibroids also can put pressure on the bladder, causing frequent urination, or the rectum, causing rectal pressure. Should the fibroids get very large, they can cause the abdomen (stomach area) to enlarge, making a woman look pregnant. <P> A uterine fibroid is the most common benign (not cancerous) tumor of a woman's uterus (womb). Fibroids are tumors of the smooth muscle found in the wall of the uterus. They can develop within the uterine wall itself or attach to it. They may grow as a single tumor or in clusters. 1 Fibroids start in the muscle tissues of the uterus. 2 They can grow into the uterine cavity (submucosal), into the thickness of the uterine wall (intramuscular), or on the surface of the uterus (subsersoal) into the abdominal cavity. <P> 1 This surgery is used when a woman's fibroids are large, if she has heavy bleeding, is either near or past menopause, or does not want children. 2 If the fibroids are large, a woman may need a hysterectomy that involves cutting into the abdomen to remove the uterus. Some have pain and heavy menstrual bleeding. Fibroids also can put pressure on the bladder, causing frequent urination, or the rectum, causing rectal pressure. Should the fibroids get very large, they can cause the abdomen (stomach area) to enlarge, making a woman look pregnant. <P> Uterine fibroids are the most common female pelvic tumor, affecting up to 30% of women. Fibroids are non-cancerous tumors that arise from smooth muscle cells within the uterus and can result in symptoms such as pelvic pain, pelvic pressure, urinary frequency, abdominal fullness, infertility and heavy menstrual bleeding. Complications in pregnancy of fibroids. 1 When a fibroid grows in or near the fallopian tubes. 2 Fibroids can partially or completely block the egg cells to go down and meet with sperm cells ultimately preventing pregnancy... 3 The fertilized egg cannot implant into the uterus because a fibroid is occupying its space. <P> Fibroids are non-cancerous (benign) tumors that grow from the muscle layers of the uterus (womb) . They are also known as uterine fibroids, myomas, or fibromyomas. The singular of uterine fibroids is Uterine Fibroma. Fibroids are growths of smooth muscle and fibrous tissue.

<P> •Nerve cells (neurons)carry the message fromthe stimulated receptorsto the correct effectors.• A sensory neuron carriesthe message from the receptorto the central nervous system (the spinal cord and brain). • A motor neuron carries themessage from the centralnervous system to the effector.• This is a reflex arc. <P> Nerves. There are three main types of neurons in the nervous system: 1 Sensory Neurons: Conduct nerve impulses from receptors to the CNS (afferent pathway). 2 Relay Neurons: Conduct nerve impulses within the CNS (also called interneurons or connector neurons). The nervous system contains a specialised network of cells called neurons and coordinates the actions of complex organisms via the transmission of electrochemical signals. The nervous system can be divided into two main parts: <P> Reflex arc. Reflex reactions in humans are controlled by the reflex arc. When the safety of an organism demands a very quick response, the signals may be passed directly from a sensory neuron, via a relay neurone, to a motor neurone for instant, unthinking action. This is a reflex action <P> 1-7. REFLEX ARC An impulse follows a conduction pathway from its origin in the dendrites or neuron cell body in one part of the body to the impulse's end somewhere else in the body. One pathway is called a reflex arc and is a functional unit of the nervous system. The basic parts of a reflex arc are a receptor, a sensory neuron, a center, a motor neuron, and an effector. a. Function of Components of a Reflex Arc. Functions are: (1) Receptor. The receptor activates a nerve impulse in a sensory neuron in response to a change in the body's internal or external environment. (2) Sensory neuron. This neuron conducts the impulse from the receptor to its axonal end in the central nervous system. <P> A neural pathway, neural tract, or neural face, connects one part of the nervous system with another via a bundle of axons, the long fibers of neurons. A neural pathway that serves to connect relatively distant areas of the brain or nervous system is usually a bundle of neurons, known collectively as white matter. <P> Doctors often trigger this reflex to test the function of your nervous system. If the reaction is exaggerated or absent, it may indicate a damage to the central nervous system. Autonomic reflexes. Most reflexes go completely unnoticed because they don't involve a visible and sudden movement. A reflex action often involves a very simple nervous pathway called a reflex arc. A reflex arc starts off with receptors being excited. They then send signals along a sensory neuron to your spinal cord, where the signals are passed on to a motor neuron. <P> 1 Sensory neuron(s) then transmit information from the sensory receptor(s) to the Central Nervous System (i.e. the brain and spinal cord, sometimes referred to in the abbreviated form: C.N.S.). 2 This is happens because peripheral nerves connect to the spinal cord via the network of nerves within the nervous system. 1 (Stimuli is the plural form, referring to more than one stimulus.). 2 In this context, a stimulus is something that human sensory receptors are able to detect. 3 E.g. sounds, physical contact, tastes, visual sensation, etc.. <P> When a physician strikes your patellar tendon, the tendon fibers are stretched and activate the golgi tendon organ (receptor). (This mimics what would happen to the tendon if one were to fall over backwards.) An action potential results, and is carried toward the spinal cord. Within the gray matter the sensory neuron synapses with an interneuron. The interneuron in turn synapses with one or more motor neurons, and an action potential is in turn initiated in the motor neuron(s).

<P> ovum. pl. ova [L.] egg; the female reproductive or germ cell which, after fertilization, is capable of developing into a new member of the same species; sometimes applied to any stage of the fertilized germ cell during cleavage and even until hatching or birth of the new animal. <P> All sexually reproducing organisms make sex cells called gametes. The gamete produced by the female is called the egg or ovum (plural = ova). It joins with the sperm, the male gamete, during fertilization to form the embryo, which will eventually grow into a new organism. <P> Answer by 1Jazz. Confidence votes 9.4K. Ova is the plural for ovum, which is the female gamete (sex cell). An ovum can also be called an egg. Its function is to fuse with a sperm cell during fertilization, and create a zygote. This can then go on to create a new organism (offspring). <P> The term ovum is usually restricted to the single female sex cell, but the term egg, in its common use to indicate a bird's egg, refers to a more complex structure, only part of which is produced in the ovary of the bird. The ovum of such an egg is a cell swollen with yolk material. <P> Ovum: An egg in the ovary of the female. This egg is called the female gamete or sex cell. It combines with the male gamete, called a sperm, to form a zygote.

what blood test for lyme disease
|
<P> Blood tests. Blood tests which look for antibodies to the bacteria that cause Lyme disease are the main test. This is known as serology. If antibodies have not developed sufficiently, it is possible for these tests to be negative despite active infection. <P> A blood test for antibodies to the bacteria is the preferred test for the diagnosis of Lyme disease. However, if a person has central nervous system symptoms, such as meningitis, then IgM, IgG, and western blot testing may sometimes be performed on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) . Lyme disease tests are used to determine if a person with characteristic signs and symptoms has been infected by the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi. The tests detect antibodies produced by the immune system in response to the infection. <P> Other tests. Three other tests that may be used to diagnose Lyme disease are polymerase chain reaction (PCR), antigen detection and culture testing. They are called “direct” tests because they detect the bacteria, not just your immune response to it. <P> Lyme Disease Test. Guide. A Lyme disease test detects antibodies to the Lyme disease bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi in the blood. Lyme disease bacteria are spread by certain kinds of ticks. Lyme disease can be hard to diagnose because its symptoms are similar to those of many other illnesses. <P> Tests and diagnosis. The variable signs and symptoms of Lyme disease are nonspecific and often are found in other conditions, so diagnosis can be difficult. What's more, the ticks that transmit Lyme disease also can spread other diseases at the same time. 1 Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test. 2 The test used most often to detect Lyme disease, ELISA detects antibodies to B. burgdorferi. 3 But because it can sometimes provide false-positive results, it's not used as the sole basis for <P> Why It Is Done. A Lyme disease test is done to diagnose Lyme disease in people who have symptoms of Lyme disease. Symptoms may include: 1 An expanding red rash with a pale center. 2 This is sometimes called a bull's-eye rash. 3 Extreme tiredness. 4 Fever. 5 Headache and stiff neck. 6 Muscle and joint pain. <P> CDC currently recommends a two-step process when testing blood for evidence of antibodies against the Lyme disease bacteria. Both steps can be done using the same blood sample. The first step uses a testing procedure called “EIA” (enzyme immunoassay) or rarely, an “IFA” (indirect immunofluorescence assay). <P> Blood Tests. A blood test for Lyme disease measures the level of antibodies in the blood. These antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to the bacterial infection. However, these antibodies may not show up in the blood for five or more week <P> Laboratory tests are not recommended for patients who do not have symptoms typical of Lyme disease. Just as it is important to correctly diagnose Lyme disease when a patient has it, it is important to avoid misdiagnosis and treatment of Lyme disease when the true cause of the illness is something else.

good food for underactive thyroid
|
<P> For that reason, a deficiency in iodine can lead to an underactive thyroid. However, a lack of iodine is rarely the cause of hypothyroidism in developed countries where it is abundant in the food supply (3). Nevertheless, including iodine-rich foods in your diet is a good idea to be safe. Summary: As iodine is required for thyroid hormone production, ensure your diet contains foods naturally rich in iodine (but if you have Hashimoto’s then check first with your doctor). Unless you are pregnant or breastfeeding, iodine supplements are unnecessary and potentially dangerous. <P> Whole Grains. Constipation is a common symptom of hypothyroidism. Whole-grain foods such as cereal, bread, pasta, and rice are high in nutrients in addition to fiber, which can help with bowel regularity. However, fiber can interfere with synthetic thyroid hormones, cautions Turner. An early symptom of hypothyroidism is weight gain. Low-calorie, high-density foods such as fresh produce are the cornerstone of every successful weight loss program. Include either fresh fruits or veggies at each meal, if possible. <P> If you have an underactive thyroid, you should eat a well-balanced diet and control your weight. A well-balanced diet can help you feel better and can be a positive step in dealing with this condition. It can also help decrease your chances of developing heart disease or certain types of cancer. <P> By eating the right foods for low thyroid, you will be getting the right nutrients to boost your thyroid function. Vitamin D 3 plays a big role in how well your thyroid functions. Even though we get this vitamin from the sun, we rarely eat foods that contain enough Vitamin D to maintain good health. A n underactive thyroid diet is different because it is designed to help your thyroid function improve. If you have already tried to diet to lose weight, you have probably already figured that one out. <P> Foods that are good for the thyroid gland and should be added for a normal thyroid function will likely be among some of your favorites. Most people love strawberries. Strawberries are rich in Vitamin C, but did you know that they also contain iodine. Yogurt is rich in calcium and it also contains iodine. There you have two sources that not only taste great together, but they are among the good foods for thyroid. By eating just a cup of each, you will be providing your body and thyroid with approximately 100 micro grams of iodine. <P> Maybe you are a fan of yogurt and it would be easy for you to add this to your thyroid diet. Yogurt is one food that is good for your thyroid. Yogurt is rich in calcium and it also contains iodine. There you have two sources that not only taste great together, but they are among the good foods for thyroid. By eating just a cup of each, you will be providing your body and thyroid with approximately 100 micro grams of iodine. <P> Fish and shell fish are also a food that aids your thyroid. It is a good choice of food rich in iodine. It is also a great source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids. This, however, can be a hard food to eat if you don’t like it. Fish is one of those foods that would be hard to develop a taste for. Yogurt is rich in calcium and it also contains iodine. There you have two sources that not only taste great together, but they are among the good foods for thyroid. By eating just a cup of each, you will be providing your body and thyroid with approximately 100 micro grams of iodine. <P> Foods that provide selenium are thought to be helpful toward thyroid function. Dietitian Anne Collins suggests that you consistently eat selenium-rich foods such as whole-wheat bread, bran, Brazil nuts, tuna, onions, tomatoes and broccoli to help improve thyroid function. These foods are also high in other nutrients and fiber, which can contribute to overall health and weight management. Photo Credit Thomas Northcut/Digital Vision/Getty Images. Foods that contain good amounts of iron can improve thyroid function. Iron is found in various foods, such as lean red meat, tuna, salmon, clams, most beans, leafy greens, tofu and fortified grain products, such as breads and cereals. <P> Photo Credit Goodshoot/Goodshoot/Getty Images. The Hartford Clinic suggests a high-fiber diet for those who struggle with underactive thyroid. Such a diet improves regularity and can help you to maintain a healthy weight. To increase fiber in your diet, eat fruits and vegetables with most meals and as snacks. Photo Credit Thomas Northcut/Digital Vision/Getty Images. Foods that contain good amounts of iron can improve thyroid function. Iron is found in various foods, such as lean red meat, tuna, salmon, clams, most beans, leafy greens, tofu and fortified grain products, such as breads and cereals. <P> Along with taking your thyroid medication, you can bolster thyroid function with a well-balanced diet that includes lots of produce and protein, among other healthy foods, says Gregory B. Dodell, MD, an endocrinologist in New York City. The next time you're at the grocery store, look for these seven nutrient-rich foods. An early symptom of hypothyroidism is weight gain. Low-calorie, high-density foods such as fresh produce are the cornerstone of every successful weight loss program. Include either fresh fruits or veggies at each meal, if possible.

which receptors are activated by gtp
|
<P> The subunits are tethered at the membrane surface by covalently attached lipid molecules. When a ligand binds, the receptor activates the attached G-protein by causing the exchange of GTP (yellow) for GDP (red). The activated G-protein then dissociates into an alpha (G-alpha) and a beta-gamma complex. After GTP hydrolysis, G-alpha bound to GDP can reassociate with a beta-gamma complex to form an inactive trimeric G-protein that can again associate with a receptor. The GTPase activity of the G-alpha is speeded up by other proteins--sometimes the target protein, sometimes a separate regulatory protein. <P> The receptors are proteins with seven transmembrane alpha-helices. View this ANIMATION to see the sequence of events during the activation of a receptor coupled to a trimeric G protein. The binding of the hormone or neurotransmitter to the receptor causes GTP to replace GDP on the alpha subunit. As a result, the alpha subunit dissociates from the other two. <P> The largest family of cell surface receptors are the G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). There are hundreds of different GPCR proteins, and they are the targets of many drugs. A diverse set of ligands bind to this type of receptor, including peptide hormones, neurotransmitters, and odor molecules. After GTP hydrolysis, G-alpha bound to GDP can reassociate with a beta-gamma complex to form an inactive trimeric G-protein that can again associate with a receptor. The GTPase activity of the G-alpha is speeded up by other proteins--sometimes the target protein, sometimes a separate regulatory protein. <P> G proteins are molecular switches that are activated by receptor-catalyzed GTP for GDP exchange on the G protein alpha subunit, which is the rate-limiting step in the activation of all downstream signaling. Heterotrimeric G proteins couple the activation of heptahelical receptors at the cell surface to the intracellular signaling cascades that mediate the physiological responses to extracellular stimuli. <P> Whereas G proteins are activated by G protein-coupled receptors, they are inactivated by RGS proteins (for Regulator of G protein signalling). Receptors stimulate GTP binding (turning the G protein on). Different types of heterotrimeric G proteins share a common mechanism. They are activated in response to a conformational change in the GPCR, exchanging GDP for GTP, and dissociating in order to activate other proteins in a particular signal transduction pathway. <P> The GTP (or GDP) is bound to the G α subunit in the traditional view of heterotrimeric GPCR activation. This exchange triggers the dissociation of the G α subunit (which is bound to GTP) from the G βγ dimer and the receptor as a whole. Different types of heterotrimeric G proteins share a common mechanism. They are activated in response to a conformational change in the GPCR, exchanging GDP for GTP, and dissociating in order to activate other proteins in a particular signal transduction pathway. <P> G proteins located within the cell are activated by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that span the cell membrane. Signaling molecules bind to a domain of the GPCR located outside the cell, and an intracellular GPCR domain then in turn activates a particular G protein. Different types of heterotrimeric G proteins share a common mechanism. They are activated in response to a conformational change in the GPCR, exchanging GDP for GTP, and dissociating in order to activate other proteins in a particular signal transduction pathway. <P> In the inactive resting complex, the Gα subunit is bound to the guanine nucleotide, guanosine diphosphate (GDP), but when a receptor is activated, the receptor can catalyze nucleotide exchange reactions on the Gα subunit. GDP leaves and guanosine triphosphate GTP enters instead. Termination of GPCR signaling. Termination of signaling requires turning off activated receptors, turning off activated G-proteins, and return of second messenger levels, protein phosphorylation levels, and other changed metabolites to their original values. Consider the first two. <P> B. These proteins are activated after ligand binding and catalyze the exchange of GDP by GTP bound to the subunit. to study the initial steps of G-protein activation by agonist-bound receptors in a quantitative manner, we wish to analyze the binding of radiolabeled GTP analogues. binding of [35S]GTPS to G-proteins is limited by the dissociation of GDP from the binding sites. 2. two components may contribute to this agonist-independent reaction: a. spontaneous, receptor-independent dissociation of G-protein bound GDP. <P> When they are bound to GTP, they are 'on', and, when they are bound to GDP, they are 'off'. G proteins belong to the larger group of enzymes called GTPases. There are two classes of G proteins. The first function as monomeric small GTPases, while the second form and function as heterotrimeric G protein complexes. Different types of heterotrimeric G proteins share a common mechanism. They are activated in response to a conformational change in the GPCR, exchanging GDP for GTP, and dissociating in order to activate other proteins in a particular signal transduction pathway.

T he term rococo style, or the rococo, refers to a style of decoration current in Europe, particularly France, during the 18th century. It applies both to interior decoration and to ornaments. <P> Rococo is an artistic style which originated in the 18th century in France. Often referred to merely as Late Baroque, the Rococo developed from the Baroque artistic movement. Whilst it kept several characteristics of the original style, including elaboration and ornate themes, it was also more playful and asymmetrical. <P> The term rococo comes from the French rocaille,rock-work, and hallmarks of the full-fledged style are architectural decoration based on arabesques, shells, elaborate curves, and asymmetry; iridescent pastel colors; and, in painting, light-hearted rather than weighty subject matter. <P> The Rococo style was used primarily in furniture, silver and ceramics, rather than architecture. It takes its name from the French rocaille (pronounced 'rock-eye'), which means the rock or broken shell motifs that often formed part of the designs. Rococo was fashionable from about 1730 to 1770.

what does cinematography mean
|
<P> The definition of cinematography is the art and process of movie photography. An example of cinematography are the decisions made about lighting, camera filters and lenses when shooting a movie scene. Usage notes. 1 Traditionally the term cinematography referred to working with motion picture film emulsion, but it is now largely synonymous with videography due to the use of digital technology in both fields. <P> Cinematography can not only depict a moving subject but can use a camera, which represents the audience's viewpoint or perspective, that moves during the course of filming. This movement plays a considerable role in the emotional language of film images and the audience's emotional reaction to the action. In digital cinematography, the movie is shot on digital medium such as flash storage, as well as distributed through a digital medium such as a hard drive. Beginning in the late 1980s, Sony began marketing the concept of electronic cinematography, utilizing its analog Sony HDVS professional video cameras. <P> To put it simply, the cinematographer is the person accountable for a film’s cinematography, the art and science of motion picture photography. Every decision the cinematographer makes must also service the director and the story. On a large production, it is unlikely that the cinematographer operate the camera. <P> A cinematographer or director of photography (sometimes shortened to DP or DOP) is the chief over the camera crews working on a film, television production or other live action piece and is responsible for achieving artistic and technical decisions related to the image. <P> Cinematography. Cinematography is the art or science of motion picture photography. It is the technique of movie photography, including both the shooting and development of the film. The cinematographer could also be referred to as the film director's main visual collaborator. <P> The overall control of film lighting and cinematography, or the creative use of a movie camera, is usually given to one individual, the director of photography (or DP). <P> Here's what the cinematographer does. Published by Gabe Moura, on. The cinematographer or director of photography (DP) is the person in charge of actually shooting the film. He is the head of the camera and lighting departments, and as such he has a big role in the making of any movie. Well, behind that gorgeous angle was a cinematographer. Published by Gabe Moura, on.

what is creatine powder
|
<P> Creatine is normally found in meat and fish. Creatine is also naturally made in the human body in the kidney and liver. Creatine is mainly stored in muscles, but about 1.5-2% of the body's creatine is converted to creatinine daily. <P> Creatine supplements are athletic aids used to increase high-intensity athletic performance. Researchers have known of the use of creatine as an energy source by skeletal muscles since the middle of the 20th century. They were popularized as a performance-enhancing supplement beginning in the 1990s. <P> Creatine is a natural substance that turns into creatine phosphate in the body. Creatine phosphate helps make a substance called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP provides the energy for muscle contractions. The body produces some of the creatine it uses. It also comes from protein-rich foods such as meat or fish. Back in the 1970s, scientists discovered that taking creatine in supplement form might enhance physical performance. In the 1990s, athletes started to catch on, and creatine became a popular sports supplement. According to studies, 8% of adolescents take creatine <P> Overview. Creatine is a naturally-occurring amino acid (protein building block) that's found in meat and fish, and also made by the human body in the liver, kidneys, and pancreas. It is converted into creatine phosphate or phosphocreatine and stored in the muscles, where it is used for energy. During high-intensity, short-duration exercise, such as lifting weights or sprinting, phosphocreatine is converted into ATP, a major source of energy within the human body. <P> Knowledge center. Creatine is a nitrogenous organic acid produced in the liver that helps supply energy to cells all over the body-particularly muscle cells. It is made out of three amino acids: L-arginine, glycine, and L-methionine. <P> Creatine is a chemical that is normally found in the body, mostly in muscles. It is made by the body and can also be obtained from certain foods. Fish and meats are good sources of creatine. Creatine can also be made in the laboratory. Many people who use creatine gain weight. This is because creatine causes the muscles to hold water, not because it actually builds muscle. There is some concern that combining creatine with caffeine and the herb ephedra (also called Ma Huang) might increase the chance of having serious side effects such as stroke. <P> SUPPLEMENT WITH CREATINE FOR MORE MUSCLE POWER*. The biggest enemy to a good workout is fatigue. As much as you try to fight it, eventually your muscles grow tired and your strength plummets. It could mean the end to your workout, so fight back! When it comes to supplement absorption in the body-the smaller the particles, the faster the absorption.* That is exactly the principle that micronized creatine follows for its high quality <P> For the use of creatine to increase athletic performance, see Creatine supplements. Not to be confused with creatinine. Creatine (/ˈkriːətiːn/ or /ˈkriːətɪn/) is a nitrogenous organic acid that occurs naturally in vertebrates and helps to supply energy to all cells in the body, primarily muscle. This is achieved by increasing the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

how long before system is back to normal after pancreatic surgery
|
<P> The overall survival after the whipple operation for pancreatic adenocarcinoma is about 20% at five years after surgery. Patients without spread of cancer into their lymph nodes may have up to a 40% survival. In up to 25% of patients, the stomach may remain paralyzed after the surgery and it may take up to 4 to 6 weeks for the stomach to adapt to the changes after the surgery to function normally. During this period you may not a tolerate a diet very well. <P> The pre assessment clinic. About 1 to 2 weeks before your surgery you will have an appointment at the hospital pre assessment clinic. This prepares you for your operation and makes sure you are in the best possible health before surgery. You may have some of the tests mentioned above if you haven't had them already. Before your surgery, you may have. 1 Blood tests to check your general health and kidney function. 2 A chest X-ray to check your lungs are healthy. 3 Tests to check your heart is healthy (ECG, MUGA scan and echocardiogram). 4 Tests to see how well your lungs work (Lung function tests). <P> You will be in the operating room for about 2-5 hours with at least another 1 - 2 hours in the recovery room afterwards. Your hospital stay will depend on the extent of your surgery and may be up to 7-10 days in length if the surgery is extensive. 1 The incision normally heals fully within a few weeks. 2 There is also swelling and a feeling of firmness under the incision that may last for a couple of months. 3 If you have surgical staples closing your wound, these will be removed by 14 days after your operation. <P> If your cancer has spread then your surgeon will not offer you these operations. Unfortunately, only about 10 to 20 in every 100 people with pancreatic cancer (10 to 20%) are able to have surgery. You can view and print the quick guides for all the pages in the treating pancreatic cancer section. So some of the digestive juices are able to get into your abdomen. Around 1 in 10 patients (10%) having major pancreatic surgery will have a fistula. If you get one, you will have a wound drain put in and have drugs to control the inflammation. The drains will be left in until the fistula dries up. <P> The Whipple operation was first described in the 1930s by Allan Whipple. In the 1960s and 1970s the mortality rate for the Whipple operation was very high. Up to 25% of patients died from the surgery. In up to 25% of patients, the stomach may remain paralyzed after the surgery and it may take up to 4 to 6 weeks for the stomach to adapt to the changes after the surgery to function normally. During this period you may not a tolerate a diet very well.

what microorganisms are in sourdough wiki
|
<P> Sourdough is generally considered wild yeast, though the flavor of sourdough is actually from a mixture of yeast and lacto-bacteria. Once a stable culture has been created, the amount of leavening gas is produced roughly equally by the yeasts and bacteria. When making sourdough for the purposes of acid-base leavening, such as pancakes, a more-acid dough is often desired. A simple way for a baker to achieve that using accurate measurement and formula notation is to use an excessively high starter percentage. Generally, sourdough improves with age. <P> Sourdough bread is made by the fermentation of dough using naturally-occurring lactobacilli and yeast. Sourdough bread has a mildly sour taste not present in most breads made with baker's yeast, due to the lactic acid produced by the lactobacilli. Higher refreshment ratios are associated with greater microbial stability in the sourdough. In San Francisco sourdough, the ratio is 40% of the total weight, which is roughly equivalent to 67% of the new-dough's weight. A high refreshment ratio keeps acidity of the refreshed dough relatively low. <P> The bacteria are certain strains of the so-called benign or friendly bacteria Lactobacillus, rod-shaped bacteria that can convert simple sugars into lactic and other acids. To understand more of what a sourdough is, we need to understand what yeast is. In simplest terms it is a plant. The natural yeasts in a sourdough starter are strains of a yeast family whose scientific name is Sacchraromyces exiges. They are of the same family of yeast as commercial bakers' yeast, whose scientific name is Saccharomyces cerrivasae. <P> Microorganisms are used in brewing, baking and other food-making processes. The lactobacilli and yeasts in sourdough bread are especially useful. To make bread, one uses a small amount (20-25%) of starter dough which has the yeast culture, and mixes it with flour and water. However, many eukaryotes are also microorganisms. Eukaryotes are characterised by the presence of organelles in the cells; these structures are absent in bacteria and archaea. The nucleus is an organelle which houses the DNA. A mitochondrion is vital in production and conversion of energy inside a cell. <P> Rye bread is a type of bread made with various proportions of flour from rye grain. It can be light or dark in color, depending on the type of flour used and the addition of coloring agents, and is typically denser than bread made from wheat flour. Timelapse of a fresh rye sourdough culture rising over a 10-hour period at roughly 25.5 °C (78 °F). While rye and wheat are genetically similar enough to interbreed (resulting in hybrids known as triticale), their biochemistries differ enough that they affect the breadmaking process. <P> Sourdough is a dough containing a Lactobacillus culture in symbiotic combination with yeasts. It is one of the principal means of biological leavening in bread baking, the others using cultivated forms of yeast. It is important in baking rye-based breads, where yeast does not produce comparable results. Higher refreshment ratios are associated with greater microbial stability in the sourdough. In San Francisco sourdough, the ratio is 40% of the total weight, which is roughly equivalent to 67% of the new-dough's weight. A high refreshment ratio keeps acidity of the refreshed dough relatively low. <P> From a scientific perspective, a sourdough starter is a natural leaven-a mixture of grains and liquid (usually flour and water) inhabited by so-called wild yeasts and bacteria which leaven and flavor bread dough. The natural yeasts in a sourdough starter are strains of a yeast family whose scientific name is Sacchraromyces exiges. They are of the same family of yeast as commercial bakers' yeast, whose scientific name is Saccharomyces cerrivasae. <P> Obtaining a satisfactory rise from sourdough takes longer than a dough leavened with baker's yeast because the yeast in a sourdough is less vigorous. In the presence of lactic acid bacteria, however, some sourdough yeasts have been observed to produce twice the gas of baker's yeast. Higher refreshment ratios are associated with greater microbial stability in the sourdough. In San Francisco sourdough, the ratio is 40% of the total weight, which is roughly equivalent to 67% of the new-dough's weight. A high refreshment ratio keeps acidity of the refreshed dough relatively low. <P> About Sourdough bread Edit. Wikipedia Article About Sourdough bread on Wikipedia. Rather than leavened with active dry yeast, is made from a starter of fermented flour, sugar, and water, which supports a culture of natural yeast. Sourdough breads have a distinctive sour or tangy taste.

how long does it take for a scratched cornea to heal
|
<P> Medicated eye drops to ease pain and inflammation may also be used. Sometimes, doctors temporarily patch the scratched eye. Pain medication may also be given. A minor scratch should heal on its own in one to three days. More severe abrasions may take longer to heal. Here are some tips to help you while your eye heals: 1 Do not wear contacts until your eye has completely healed and your eye doctor says it is safe to do so. Once you've had a corneal abrasion, you're not likely to forget the unrelenting pain and discomfort it can cause. Symptoms of corneal abrasion may include: 1 Feeling like you have sand or grit in your eye. 2 Eye pain, especially when opening or closing your eye. <P> In this article. A corneal abrasion is a scratch on the eye 's cornea. The cornea is the clear, protective covering over the iris, which is the colored part of the eye, and the pupil -- the black circle in the middle of the eye. And do not try to remove anything that is on the cornea. Only a doctor should do this. If you still feel like something is caught in your eye, see an eye doctor as soon as possible, or go to the emergency room. <P> A scratched cornea does hurt-bad. But the good news is that they heal quickly, within 1-3 days. You may want to check with your pharmacist to see if they can recommend an over-the-counter eyedrop that will help with the pain. If it's not better in a few days, I'd see a doctor to make sure you didn't do any extra damage. How long does it take to heal? In many cases, depending on the severity, the cornea will heal completely in 24 to 48 hours, leaving no permanent damage. However, if the pain is severe or persistent, contact an eye doctor to decide if treatment is required. <P> If you poke your eye or if something gets trapped under your eyelid -- such as dirt or sand -- your cornea may become scratched. When it does, it can cause significant pain and discomfort. If you get something in your eye, do not rub it. Try flushing it out with water or seek help from a doctor. And do not try to remove anything that is on the cornea. Only a doctor should do this. If you still feel like something is caught in your eye, see an eye doctor as soon as possible, or go to the emergency room. <P> What measures can prevent corneal abrasions? A corneal abrasion is a scraped, scratched, or torn area of the corneal surface (named the epithelium), usually resulting from an injury such as a finger in the eye, a tree branch, flying glass, or damage from a contact lens. In many cases, depending on the severity, the cornea will heal completely in 24 to 48 hours, leaving no permanent damage. However, if the pain is severe or persistent, contact an eye doctor to decide if treatment is required. <P> Healing time depends on the size of the corneal abrasion. Most abrasions heal in two to three days, while larger abrasions that involve more than one half of the surface area of the cornea may take four to five days. Most corneal abrasions heal in 24 to 72 hours and rarely progress to corneal erosion or infection. Although eye patching traditionally has been recommended in the treatment of corneal abrasions, multiple well-designed studies show that patching does not help and may hinder healing. <P> The size of a corneal abrasion usually determines the time it will take to heal. Small, uncomplicated abrasions usually heal in two to three days, whereas larger abrasions that affect more than half of the surface area of the cornea may take four to five days. Michael Garin O.D. A scratched cornea, also called a corneal abrasion, is a common injury involving the eye. It is often caused by a foreign body — such as a contact lens, tree branch, or flying debris from a power tool — that scratches the surface of the eye. Most corneal abrasions are minor injuries and heal rapidly. <P> The symptoms of a scratched cornea include eye watering, pain and redness in the eye, spasms in the eyelid, sensitivity to light, blurry vision or the feeling that there is something in your eye. Fortunately, there a number of steps you can take to help your scratched cornea heal. A scratched cornea, or a corneal abrasion, can have a number of causes, including wearing contacts for an extended length of time or wearing cracked or chipped contact lenses, getting hit/poked in your eye, having a foreign object (such as an eyelash or sand) trapped in your eye or getting fluid <P> Best Answer: The most common symptoms of a corneal abrasion are redness, pain, blurred vision, excessive tears, sensitivity to light, or a feeling that an object is in the eye. Most such abrasions occur in one eye only, and many result from wearing contact lenses improperly. How long does it take to heal? In many cases, depending on the severity, the cornea will heal completely in 24 to 48 hours, leaving no permanent damage. However, if the pain is severe or persistent, contact an eye doctor to decide if treatment is required.

how many weeks into pregnancy can you find out the gender
|
<P> I think you can find out as early as 16 weeks, but I doctors usually wait until approx. 20 weeks to do that ultrasound. We didn't find out until closer to 24 though. <P> Answer: An ultrasound is the least invasive way to find out if you are having a boy or a girl. It is best done during the 18-22nd weeks of your pregnancy. Prior to this time the baby may not be well enough developed to get an accurate answer with a gender ultrasound. After this time the baby is more crowded making it more difficult to get a good view. <P> Having ultrasound to find out your baby’s gender is a fairly straightforward and safe procedure, and many expectant parents want to know this before the baby is born. That way, they can settle on a name for the baby and start decorating the nursery for either a girl or a boy. <P> Knowing Your Baby’s Sex. One of the most challenging decisions for many couples during pregnancy is whether or not to find out their baby's gender. Recent surveys suggest that between 50% and 70% of expectant couples decide to find out the sex of their child before birth. <P> At the same time, there are couples who want to wait and choose not to find out the baby’s gender until the moment of birth. They want the discovery of whether the baby is a boy or a girl to be a surprise. The suspense can make pregnancy, labor and delivery more exciting. <P> Usually between weeks 13-28 you will generally have an ultrasound that can detect the gender of your baby. If you have an ultrasound done during the first part of your s … econd trimester it might be more difficult to tell. <P> If you wish to know the gender of your baby, it can usually be determined by 20 weeks. Be sure to tell the health care provider performing the ultrasound whether or not you want to know the gender of your baby.
