what is the niche of a bengal tiger
|
<P> The most common subspecies of tiger is the Bengal tiger. Male Bengal tigers, on average, are 270-310 cm head to tail, weighi … ng 488 pounds. Female Bengal tigers average 240-265 cm head to tail and weigh an average of 308 pounds. <P> Bengal tigers have also inherited a few useful traits from their ancestors, the sabre toothed tiger. One of these traits is nocturnal vision that allows the Bengal tiger to hunt their prey relentlessly night or day. Actually, a Bengal tiger’s vision can function with up to one-sixth the light that a human eye needs. Deforestation of the Bengal tigers’ habitat is playing a major part in the Bengal tigers’ reduction. Where once they had thousands of acres to roam, they now have only a few scarce sanctuaries (refer to map on page 2) and even there they are not completely safe from poachers. <P> Bengal tigers are also able to consume other predators such as leopards, wolves, and crocodiles. In very rare cases these creatures are able to take down animals as big as elephants or rhinoceroses. Also, very rarely, these tigers attack and kill humans. Unlike other big animals Bengal Tigers do not hibernate. Since it is hot almost all year in India, they have no need to hibernate to avoid the cold winters. Bengal Tigers have a total gestation period of around 3.5 months (about 16 weeks) and tend to reproduce in the spring time. <P> This article on the Bengal tiger habitat looks at where it is and what it is. When you write about habitat you have to write about the location as well. It is an area where there are dense mangrove forests and where the land meets the sea. Bengal tigers in this region have adapted to the dense forest and the sea water. Tigers are good swimmers anyway. In the Sunderbans (a national park) the primary prey for the tiger is the chital (axis deer), wild boar, and monkeys. <P> Bengal tigers live in tropical rainforests in India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, Myanmar and Nepal. However, most of the population is found in grassland or deciduous forests. Bengal tigers like the constant shade that the forest floor guarantees with the understory’s leaves leaving the tigers cool. Deforestation of the Bengal tigers’ habitat is playing a major part in the Bengal tigers’ reduction. Where once they had thousands of acres to roam, they now have only a few scarce sanctuaries (refer to map on page 2) and even there they are not completely safe from poachers. <P> The original habitat of Royal Bengal Tigers (Indian Tigers or panthera tigris) is India Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, and Burma where these splendid animals live mostly in sanctuaries. <P> Dry and wet deciduous forests, grassland and temperate forests, mangrove forests. The Bengal tiger is found primarily in India with smaller populations in Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, China and Myanmar. It is the most numerous of all tiger subspecies with more than 2,500 left in the wild <P> Ecological Niche. The Bengal Tiger, like most animals, is a heterotroph which means that they need to consume other organisms to obtain energy. These creatures are also endothermic which means they are warm blooded. By perfroming live birth and being covered head to tail in hair, Bengal Tigers are also classified as mammals. Unlike other big animals Bengal Tigers do not hibernate. Since it is hot almost all year in India, they have no need to hibernate to avoid the cold winters. Bengal Tigers have a total gestation period of around 3.5 months (about 16 weeks) and tend to reproduce in the spring time. <P> The only big predator to the Bengal Tiger is humans. We take their habitat, fur, bones, and meat until they can no longer supply for us and we move on. Humans are greedy when it comes to these animals and play a vital role in their extinction. Unlike other big animals Bengal Tigers do not hibernate. Since it is hot almost all year in India, they have no need to hibernate to avoid the cold winters. Bengal Tigers have a total gestation period of around 3.5 months (about 16 weeks) and tend to reproduce in the spring time.

Defining alcoholism as a disease is associated with Jellinek
|
<P> self-proving definition: the disease of alcoholism. By defining alcoholism as a disease and attaching each of the elements of the disease theory to that definition, it proves itself. Just like the basic assumptions about witchcraft proved to almost everyone’s satisfaction the existence of witchcraft in the Middle Ages. <P> The formation of AA – Alcoholics Anonymous – in the 1930s and the publication of noted psychiatrist and Director of the Center of Alcohol Studies at Yale Medical School E. M. Jellinek’s famous book defining the concept of alcoholism as a medical disease facilitated moving alcoholism into a different light. As alcoholism is an addiction, it is considered a disease of the brain. The brain has been physically altered by extended exposure to alcohol, causing it to function differently and therefore creating addictive behavior. <P> The NIAAA defines an alcohol use disorder, or AUD, as a diagnosable medical condition in which an individual’s alcohol consumption causes harm or distress. The AUD most are familiar with is alcoholism. Symptoms of alcoholism include: 1 Physical craving or urge to drink. As alcoholism is an addiction, it is considered a disease of the brain. The brain has been physically altered by extended exposure to alcohol, causing it to function differently and therefore creating addictive behavior. <P> 1 JELLINEK PHASES: THE PROGRESSIVE SYMPTOMS OF ALCOHOLISM The behavioral characteristics of the alcoholic are progressive as is the person's tolerance to alcohol and as is the course of the disease itself. Types of alcoholism: Jellinek's species The pattern described above refers to the stages of alcohol addiction. Jellinek continued his study of alcoholism, focusing on alcohol problems in other countries. <P> For example, the AMA's definition of alcoholism is: Alcoholism is an illness characterized by preoccupation with alcohol and loss of control over its consumption, such as to lead usually to intoxication if drinking; by chronicity, by progression and by a tendency toward relapse. In a recent Gallup poll, 90 percent of people surveyed believe that alcoholism is a disease. Most argue that because the American Medical Association (AMA) has proclaimed alcoholism a disease, the idea is without reproach. But, the fact is that the AMA made this determination in the absence of empirical evidence. <P> Dr. E.M. Jellinek, a native of Brooklyn, NY is recognized as one of the premier researchers in the field of alcoholism. He was one of the strongest proponents of alcoholism as a disease. <P> He was fluent in nine languages and could communicate in four others. Addiction researcher Griffith Edwards holds that, in his opinion, Jellinek's The Disease Concept of Alcoholism was a work of outstanding scholarship based on a careful consideration of the available evidence. During the 1920s, he conducted research in Sierra Leone and at Tela, Honduras. In the 1930s he returned to the U.S.A. and worked at the Worcester State Hospital, Worcester, Massachusetts, from whence he was commissioned to conduct a study for the Research Council on Problems of Alcohol. <P> Nonetheless, it was Jellinek's Stages of the Alcoholism that led to diagnosing alcoholism as a disease and eventually to the medical acceptance of alcoholism as a disease. Astoundingly, the inception of the disease theory and treatment for substance abuse is based on fraud. In a recent Gallup poll, 90 percent of people surveyed believe that alcoholism is a disease. Most argue that because the American Medical Association (AMA) has proclaimed alcoholism a disease, the idea is without reproach. But, the fact is that the AMA made this determination in the absence of empirical evidence. <P> ALCOHOLISM: A DISEASE. In 1956 the American Medical Association decided that alcoholism is a disease, however more than 30 years later this is still debated in certain circles. Besides the medical opinion, there are many others (e.g., legal, sociological, religious) which derive from any number of social pressures. <P> 1 Jellinek, E. M., Phases in the Drinking History of Alcoholics: Analysis of a Survey Conducted by the Official Organ of Alcoholics Anonymous, Quarterly Journal of Studies on Alcohol, Vol.7, (1946), pp. 2 1–88. 3 Jellinek, E. M., The Disease Concept of Alcoholism, Hillhouse, (New Haven), 1960. During the 1920s, he conducted research in Sierra Leone and at Tela, Honduras. In the 1930s he returned to the U.S.A. and worked at the Worcester State Hospital, Worcester, Massachusetts, from whence he was commissioned to conduct a study for the Research Council on Problems of Alcohol.

death penalty cost
|
<P> Using conservative rough projections, the Commission estimates the annual costs of the present (death penalty) system to be $137 million per year. The cost of the present system with reforms recommended by the Commission to ensure a fair process would be $232.7 million per year. Executing all of the people currently on death row, or waiting for them to die there of other causes, will cost California an estimated $4 billion more than if they had been sentenced to die in prison of disease, injury, or old age; California death penalty trials have cost as much as $10.9 million. <P> For the states which employ the death penalty, this luxury comes at a high price. In Texas, a death penalty case costs taxpayers an average of $2.3 million, about three times the cost of imprisoning someone in a single cell at the highest security level for 40 years. [3] In Florida, each execution is costing the state $3.2 million. Kansas, for example, estimated that the annual cost for implementing the death penalty would be $11.4 million, of which $9.2 million would be for trial costs. Kansas Legislative Research Dept. Memorandum, Feb. 11, 1987. <P> With 11 executions spread over 27 years, on a per execution basis, California and federal taxpayers have paid more than $250 million for each execution. It costs approximately $90,000 more a year to house an inmate on death row, than in the general prison population or $57.5 million annually. The Attorney General devotes about 15% of his budget, or $11 million annually to death penalty cases. Executing all of the people currently on death row, or waiting for them to die there of other causes, will cost California an estimated $4 billion more than if they had been sentenced to die in prison of disease, injury, or old age; California death penalty trials have cost as much as $10.9 million. <P> That translates to $37.2 million for each of the state’s five executions since the state reenacted the death penalty. The study estimates that the average cost to Maryland taxpayers for reaching a single death sentence is $3 million - $1.9 million more than the cost of a non-death penalty case. In its review of death penalty expenses, the State of Kansas concluded that capital cases are 70% more expensive than comparable non-death penalty cases. The study counted death penalty case costs through to execution and found that the median death penalty case costs $1.26 million. <P> 1 The most rigorous cost study in the country found that a single death sentence in Maryland costs almost $2 million more than a comparable non-death penalty case. 2 Before ending the death penalty, Maryland spent $186 million extra to carry out just five executions. 1 Even states with the fewest protections and a faster process face exorbitant death penalty costs. 2 In Texas, for example, the death penalty still costs an average of three times more than 40 years in prison at maximum security. <P> 1 Since 1978, the cost to taxpayers for the five executions the state carried out was $37.2 million dollars — each.” [Fox News]. “ 2 Since 1983, taxpayers in New Jersey have paid $253 million more for death penalty trials than they would have paid for trials not seeking execution.” [Fox News]. 1 “An Urban Institute study of Maryland’s experience with the death penalty found that a single death-penalty trial cost $1.9 million more than a non-death-penalty trial. 2 <P> A Seattle University study examining the costs of the death penalty in Washington found that each death penalty case cost an average of $1 million more than a similar case where the death penalty was not sought ($3.07 million, versus $2.01 million). In its review of death penalty expenses, the State of Kansas concluded that capital cases are 70% more expensive than comparable non-death penalty cases. The study counted death penalty case costs through to execution and found that the median death penalty case costs $1.26 million. <P> A 2012 study showed that death penalty has cost California more than $4 billion since 1978, and suggested that commuting all the state's death sentences to life imprisonment would immediately result in $170 million in savings per year. In Kansas, death penalty cases studied between 2004-2011 cost around four times more than cases where the death penalty was not sought. States could save millions of dollars a year by eliminating the death penalty. <P> Texas death penalty cases cost more than non-capital cases. Each death penalty case in Texas costs taxpayers about $2.3 million. That is about three times the cost of imprisoning someone in a single cell at the highest security level for 40 years. (Executions Cost Texas Millions, Dallas Morning News, March 8, 1992). In its review of death penalty expenses, the State of Kansas concluded that capital cases are 70% more expensive than comparable non-death penalty cases. The study counted death penalty case costs through to execution and found that the median death penalty case costs $1.26 million.

<P> Also called aphthous ulcers, canker sores are round or oval sores that occur in the mouth, usually inside the lip, cheeks, floor of the mouth or on the tongue. <P> Types of stomatitis include: 1 Canker sore: A canker sore, also known as an aphthous ulcer, is a single pale or yellow ulcer with a red outer ring or a cluster of such ulcers in the mouth, usually on the cheeks, tongue, or inside the lip. 2 Cold sores: Also called fever blisters, cold sores are fluid-filled sores that occur on or around the lips. 3 Mouth 1 <P> Aphthous Stomatitis (Canker Sores). Aphthous stomatitis is an illness that causes small ulcers to appear in the mouth, usually inside the lips, on the cheeks, or on the tongue. <P> No one knows what causes these small, painful blisters inside your mouth. Triggers include hypersensitivity, infection, hormones, stress, and not getting enough of some vitamins. Also called aphthous ulcers, canker sores can show up on the tongue, cheek, even your gums. They usually last a week or two. Persistent, severe canker sores can be treated with numbing creams, prescription drugs, or dental lasers. <P> Canker sores (also called aphthous ulcers) are different than fever blisters. They are small, red or white, shallow ulcers occurring on the tongue, soft palate, or inside the lips and cheeks; they do not occur in the roof of the mouth or the gums. They are quite painful, and usually last 5-10 days. Oral lesions (mouth sores) make it painful to eat and talk. Two of the most common recurrent oral lesions are fever blisters (also known as cold sores) and canker sores. Though similar, fever blisters and canker sores have important differences. <P> Canker sore. Canker sores, also called aphthous ulcers, are small, shallow lesions that develop on the soft tissues in your mouth or at the base of your gums. Unlike cold sores, canker sores don't occur on the surface of your lips and they aren't contagious. They can be painful, however, and can make eating and talking difficult <P> Canker sores are shallow, painful sores in the mouth. They are usually red or may sometimes have a white coating over them. You might get them on the inside of your lips, the insides of your cheeks, the base of your gums or under your tongue. Canker sores are different from fever blisters, which usually are on the outside of your lips or the corners of your mouth. Canker sores are also called aphthous ulcers. Anyone can get canker sores, but women and people in their teens and 20s get them more often. <P> Canker sores (also called aphthous ulcers) are different than fever blisters. They are small, red or white, shallow ulcers occurring on the tongue, soft palate, or inside the lips and cheeks; they do not occur in the roof of the mouth or the gums. They are quite painful, and usually last five–ten days. <P> Aphthous stomatitis (also termed recurrent aphthous stomatitis, recurring oral aphthae or recurrent aphthous ulceration; from Greek: ἄφθα aphtha, mouth ulcer) is a common condition characterized by the repeated formation of benign and non-contagious mouth ulcers (aphthae) in otherwise healthy individuals.

The DAX is up 1.45% while France's CAC 40 is up 1.10% and London's FTSE 100 is up 1.04%. <P> Yet investors are impatient for FDA approval to see just how big the opportunity will be for MannKind, especially in light of potential competition.

When predicting the short term movements in stocks, I try my best to keep the fundamental data out of it. With that said, I tend to look for trends in the chart that are signs of a coming breakout in one direction or the other. Looking at the chart to the left, I see a breakout on the horizons. What we're currently seeing from MannKind is a common pattern that we tend to see in the market called a flag. For a flag to happen, an asset has to have a great climb; then, the market stalls. As you can see that's exactly what we're seeing from MNKD <P> The story of MannKind (NASDAQ: MNKD) and Afrezza has been well-documented as interest in the stock picks up and as MannKind moves closer to the ADCOM & PDUFA dates. Deerfield is able to immediately sell these shares into the market, if they choose to. I think it is likely they have done so. In the event of anything but approval, MNKD stock will be crushed. With a third CRL, folks would certainly start to wonder if MNKD could survive for a fourth round. <P> Despite what MNKD management may or may not say, I do not think that having an ADCOM meeting is a positive for the stock. Once the briefing documents come out, it may turn into a positive, but it is certainly not a positive right now. Deerfield is able to immediately sell these shares into the market, if they choose to. I think it is likely they have done so. In the event of anything but approval, MNKD stock will be crushed. With a third CRL, folks would certainly start to wonder if MNKD could survive for a fourth round. <P> MannKind Corp is a development stage company engaged in the discovery, development, and commercialization of therapeutic products for diseases such as diabetes. Sector: Healthcare. <P> Summary. Deerfield debt-to-equity conversion is not necessarily a positive. Scheduling of an ADCOM is not a positive event for the stock. Release of briefing documents at the end of March is the next big catalyst. Deerfield is able to immediately sell these shares into the market, if they choose to. I think it is likely they have done so. In the event of anything but approval, MNKD stock will be crushed. With a third CRL, folks would certainly start to wonder if MNKD could survive for a fourth round.

three advantages of federal system of government
|
<P> A unitary state is a sovereign state governed as one single unit in which the central government is supreme and any administrative divisions (subnational units) exercise only … powers that the central government chooses to delegate. Most states in the world have a unitary system of government. Advantages: Single, all decisive legislative and/or executive offices. Usually more efficient use of tax dollars (fewer people trying to get in on the money). Advantages of federal government are the following: (1) It ensures that government remains close to the people because the state government argue that they are more in tune wi … th the daily needs and aspirations of people especially relevant to small and isolated places. <P> Unitary System. In a unitary system of government, the central government holds most of the power. The unitary state still has local and regional governmental offices, but these are under the auspices of the central government. The United Kingdom is one example of a unitary nation. In a unitary system, laws and policies throughout the state are uniform, laws are more easily passed since they need only be approved by the central government, and laws are rarely contradictory since there is only one body making those laws. There are disadvantages of this type of <P> What this common Hollywood plot line reveals is the nature of a federal government. A federal government is a system of dividing up power between a central national government and local state governments that are connected to one another by the national government. Some areas of public life are under the control of the national government, and some areas are under control of the local governments. A federal government is a system that divides up power between a strong national government and smaller local governments. We'll take a look at how power plays out between the national and local government, and the benefits of a federal government. <P> The Articles of Confederation represented an opposite form of government, a confederation, which has a weak central government and strong state governments. In a confederation, the state or local government is supreme. The national government only wields powers granted by the states. Most confederations have allowed the local government to nullify a federal law within its own borders. Federalism is a compromise meant to eliminate the disadvantages of both systems. The British government was — and remains — a unitary system, or one in which power is concentrated in a central government. In England, government has traditionally been centralized in London, and even though local governments exist, they generally have only those powers granted them by Parliament. <P> By dividing power between the states and the national government, one level can serve as a check on the other. This should provide a double security to the rights of the people. According the James Madison, this system was especially fitting for American because the nation was one of diverse interests. In a very short summary, our Federal system of government is one that creates three balanced branches of government, with power and authority shared among them and limits plac … ed upon each branch. The Federal government is assigned the task of improving things of national importance. <P> Save. A federal system of government divides legislative powers between a central government and the governments of the states. This structure of government has many advantages, such as the ability to be creative and be closer to the people rather than having a central government making all the decisions. Creating a federal system of government requires many different layers within the government. The system in the United States has a national government, state government and local city and county governments. This makes for a very large system that gets very complicated <P> Disadvantages: There may be infringements on other states, often causing rivalry and competition. Advantages: There are several checks and balances so the National governme … nt and the state governments. In my personal opinion, a federal system is better then a unitary system of government or a confederation. Advantages of federal government are the following: (1) It ensures that government remains close to the people because the state government argue that they are more in tune wi … th the daily needs and aspirations of people especially relevant to small and isolated places. <P> A federal system of government is one that divides the powers of government between the national (federal) government and state and local governments. The Constitution of … the United States established the federal system, also known as federalism. Under federalism, each level of government has sovereignty in some areas and shares powers in other areas. For example, both the federal and state governments have the power to tax. In a very short summary, our Federal system of government is one that creates three balanced branches of government, with power and authority shared among them and limits plac … ed upon each branch. The Federal government is assigned the task of improving things of national importance.

where is the equatorial countercurrent
|
<P> In the western Pacific the countercurrent is centered near 5°N while in the central Pacific it is located near 7°N. The northern boundary of the Pacific NECC is easily defined by the adjacent westward flow found in the North Equatorial Current (NEC). The southern boundary, however, can be more ambiguous. <P> In the Indian Ocean, the countercurrent is present only during the winter. Equatorial countercurrents, driven by tropical surface wind patterns, flow in the opposite direction of the surface winds. There are large month-to-month changes in the strengths of the Pacific and Atlantic equatorial coun-tercurrents. <P> Equatorial Countercurrent (Global Warming). EQUATORIAL COUNTERCURRENTS ARE major surface flows that carry water eastward in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans. They are located near the equator and are sandwiched between two westward-flowing currents, the North Equatorial Current and the South Equatorial Current. <P> The North Equatorial Counter Current (NECC) lies between 3°-10°N and is considered to roughly serve as the northern boundary for the South Equatorial Current (SEC) (Peterson and Stramma 1991; Bourles et. al. 1999). <P> ...is very strong and is definable year-round. The Atlantic Equatorial Countercurrent is strongest off the coast of Ghana (Africa), where it is known as the Guinea Current. The countercurrent of the Indian Ocean flows only during the northern winter and only south of the equator. <P> Equatorial Countercurrent--Why it occurs • South Equatorial Current is located around 5°S and the North Equatorial Current is located around 5°N. • Both flow in the same direction, resulting in a “piling up” of water on one side. <P> The equatorial countercurrent in the Pacific is clearly definable year-round between 2° and 12° N lat.; the countercurrent in the Atlantic Ocean, in the summer between 3° and 10° N lat.; and that in the Indian Ocean, in the winter between 2° and 10° S lat. <P> In the Indian Ocean, the equatorial countercurrent is located several hundred mi. (km.) south of the equator, but is caused by a similar mechanism. In all three oceans, the equatorial countercurrent is concentrated in the upper 656 ft. (200 m.), above the thermocline. <P> There is also a South Equatorial Countercurrent (SECC) that transports water from west to east in the Pacific and Atlantic basins between 2°S and 5°S in the western basin and farther south toward the east.

how will i know when my cat is in labor
|
<P> Warnings. 1 If your cat is in labor and if she doesn't have her first kitten within 2 hours of active labor commencing, then you should see a vet immediately, as there may be something wrong. 2 This also applies if there is more than an hour's delay between each kitten. Cats need a warm, calm, safe place to give birth, and your cat will deliberately seek out such a place prior to giving birth. Your cat will usually display nesting signs several days before the birth is imminent, and this is the perfect opportunity to direct her to the nest that you have already prepared for her. <P> Gestation or the length of pregnancy of a cat averages 64 days. It is generally between 62 and 67 days or about 9-10 weeks. You might notice subtle indications of pregnancy after the first 3 weeks. The cat’s nipples will begin to swell and their color will change from white to a rosy pink. By the 4th or 5th week, your cat’s belly will begin to swell. <P> Your cat is due to go into labour around the 64th day of her pregnancy, although it is very unlikely that you will be able to be that accurate in your calculations. Instead, you will have to rely on your ability to read the signs of the stages of pregnancy and of her impending labour. A further sign of your cat's labour is that she may become particularly clingy and want to be around you constantly, seeking your affection. As she gets closer to the time that her labour begins in earnest, you may find that your cat starts pacing about, appearing nervous or particularly excitable. <P> Usually about two days before giving birth your cat's mammary glands will increase in size and she will begin. producing milk. Stage 1 - The onset of labour is often around 12 hours before the appearance of the first kitten.. The cat's temperature will decrease to about 99 degrees F and you may notice a drop in her appetite. She may become restless and begin nesting in earnest. <P> My cat is going to have her kittens in the next week or two and I don't know how to tell when she is going into labor,and when she is ready to give birth. So if she has her kittens in the middle of the night nothing will get them. She had one litter of kittens last year. She had them in July in the middle of the night so I had no way to tell that she was in labor. Maybe she will have them in the middle of the day this time! <P> 1 If your cat is in labor and if she doesn't have her first kitten within 2 hours of active labor commencing, then you should see a vet immediately, as there may be something wrong. Cats need a warm, calm, safe place to give birth, and your cat will deliberately seek out such a place prior to giving birth. Your cat will usually display nesting signs several days before the birth is imminent, and this is the perfect opportunity to direct her to the nest that you have already prepared for her. <P> When your cat goes into active labor, you will be able to see the contractions along her sides. It may take a couple hours for the first kitten to emerge, and it will be covered in a membrane that the mother cat will have to lick away in order for the kitten to breathe. My cat's stomach is pretty big and she looks as though she'll give birth any minute (although I don't know how many months she is) But lately she has been breathing pretty heavily and fast. <P> Whether you are breeding purebred cats for a living or you are responsible for a cat that has become pregnant in your care, it is important to know what to do when the cat goes into labor and begins to give birth to her kittens. Cats need a warm, calm, safe place to give birth, and your cat will deliberately seek out such a place prior to giving birth. Your cat will usually display nesting signs several days before the birth is imminent, and this is the perfect opportunity to direct her to the nest that you have already prepared for her. <P> Twenty-four to forty-eight hours before labor begins, your cat will seem more anxious and restless. It will often poke its head about looking for a place to nest and have the litter. But this behavior sometimes occurs early as three days before they actually deliver. You might notice subtle indications of pregnancy after the first 3 weeks. The cat’s nipples will begin to swell and their color will change from white to a rosy pink. By the 4th or 5th week, your cat’s belly will begin to swell.

how to determine a quorum
|
<P> Vote on the number required for a quorum, so that you can place it in the by-laws. Ask the Secretary to write up the number required for a quorum. Give every member of the organization and opportunity to weigh in on the change before the vote. <P> The larger number is the number of members required for a quorum. Count the members present at a meeting to determine whether the required number of members is present <P> A simple majority is the best way to determine a quorum if you don’t have a certain number already listed in the by-laws. Find out the total membership of your organization, and then divide that number in such a way as to have one number greater than the other by one. <P> According to Robert's Rules, a quorum is the minimum number of voting members who must be present at a properly called meeting in order to conduct business in the name of the group. A quorum should consist of as large as can be depended upon for being present at all meetings when the weather is not exceptionally bad.. <P> This process will help you determine the by-law for quorum. 1 For example, you may find that three people show up to any given meeting, even if you have an eight-person board. 2 In this case, you may overrule your majority quorum in favor of a three-person quorum. <P> A quorum is the number of members of a governing body who must be present for the body to conduct business; no binding decisions can be made unless a quorum is present. Robert's Rules of Order, the definitive source on parliamentary procedure states that a majority of members must be present to have a quorum. <P> A quorum is the number or proportion of the members of an organization that must be present in order to transact any business. A meeting cannot start or transact business until there is a minimum number of voting members, a quorum. <P> This process will help you determine the by-law for quorum. 1 For example, you may find that three people show up to any given meeting, even if you have an eight-person board. 2 If your number of board members is flexible or changes frequently, consider using a percentage of board members present, rather than a set number.

<P> Email Us. All you need to do is: Climate San Pedro de Atacama Chile It is important to remember that San Pedro de Atacama is located in the heart of a dry desert and that it is at an altitude of 2, 443m as these factors influence the climate and local weather considerably. <P> The Atacama Desert (Spanish: Desierto de Atacama) is a plateau in South America, covering a 1,000-kilometre (600 mi) strip of land on the Pacific coast, west of the Andes mountains. It is the driest non-polar desert in the world. According to estimates the Atacama Desert proper occupies 105,000 square kilometres (41,000 sq mi), or 128,000 square kilometres (49,000 sq mi) if the barren lower slopes of the Andes are included. Geological research suggests that in some sections of the Atacama Desert, such as in today's Chile, hyperaridity has persisted for the last 200 million years (since the Triassic). This desert is so arid, many mountains higher than 6,000 m (20,000 ft) are completely free of glaciers. <P> October 14, 2015; 4:13 PM ET. The same storm system that brought welcome rain and mountain snow to Chile will threaten places from central Argentina to southeastern Brazil with heavy rain and locally severe thunderstorms into Thursday. <P> On March 25, 2015, heavy rainfall affected the southern part of the Atacama desert. Resulting floods triggered mudflows that affected the cities of Copiapo, Tierra Amarilla, Chile, Chanaral, and Diego de Almagro, causing the deaths of more than 100 people. Geological research suggests that in some sections of the Atacama Desert, such as in today's Chile, hyperaridity has persisted for the last 200 million years (since the Triassic).

An inch of rain represents multiple years worth of rain for the Atacama Desert. Areas this dry simply cannot handle a large amount of rain in a short period of time. The rock hard ground does not absorb the water. The lack of vegetation leads to rapid erosion and a massive generation of mud. <P> Flooding in Chile’s Atacama Desert after years’ worth of rain in one day. If you’ve ever heard about the Atacama Desert in South America, you likely remember at least one of the region’s unique features. 1 Its high-altitude location, up to 13,000 feet (4,000 meters), in northern Chile and southern Peru. 2 Its lack of precipitation. 3 Its favorable, cloud-free conditions for star gazing. 4 Its use as a Mars analog.

what is coastal bermuda
|
<P> Best Answer: Tifton 44 is the best of several thousand F1 hybrid bermudagrasses screened for winter hardiness at the Georgia Mountain Experiment Station, Blairsville, GA. It is a cross between Coastal bermuda and a bermudagrass collected in Berlin, Germany in 1966. Tifton 44 is the most winter hardy of the Tifton hybrid bermudagrasses, thanks to its Berlin parent that will survive in Michigan. Tifton 44 bermudagrass is a fine stemmed F1 hybrid that must be propagated vegetatively. <P> Midland bermudagrass is a winter-hardy hybrid (Coastal x a winter-hardy Indiana common) best adapted to the upper Piedmont and Mountain regions. Midland is similar to Coastal in yield, growth habit and forage quality. <P> Coastal bermuda and bermuda grass are common names frequently used for the same lawn and livestock forage grass species, Cynodon dactylon. <P> Tifton 85 bermudagrass is the best grass for the Coastal bermudagrass belt. Compared with Tifton 78 in duplicate two-acre pastures fertilized annually with 225 lb/A of N in a 4-1-2 (N-P205-K20) ratio fertilizer split-applied in March, June and August, Tifton 85 produced 47% more LWG/A/yr. <P> Overview. Coastal Bermuda grass was created in 1943. It is a hybrid grass that is now used around the world as both a forage grass as well as a lawn grass. Coastal Bermuda does not produce viable seeds, so it must be propagated through sprigs or tufts of exiting Bermuda. <P> Coastal, an F 1 hybrid of Tift common bermuda and a bermudagrass introduced from Asia, was released more than 55 years ago and has been established for hay and grazing on approximately 15 million acres in the southern United States. In Georgia, Coastal is best adapted to the Coastal Plain and lower Piedmont areas.

what is modulation
|
<P> In electronics and telecommunications, modulation is the process of varying one or more properties of a periodic waveform, called the carrier signal, with a modulating signal which typically contains information to be transmitted. Modulation in a modem is process of modification one of the parameters of carrier signal(periodical signal; sin/cos wave in this case) with the message signal(random digital signal in this case, string of 0’s and 1’s) so that can be transmitted over the network. <P> In telecommunications, modulation is the process of conveying a message signal, for example a digital bit stream or an analog audio signal, inside another signal that can be physically transmitted. Modulation of a sine waveform transforms a baseband message signal into a passband signal. Digital modulation methods can be considered as digital-to-analog conversion, and the corresponding demodulation or detection as analog-to-digital conversion. The changes in the carrier signal are chosen from a finite number of M alternative symbols (the modulation alphabet). <P> SecurActive Performance Vision. Modulation is the addition of information to an electronic or optical carrier signal. A carrier signal is one with a steady waveform -- constant height (amplitude) and frequency. Information can be added to the carrier by varying its amplitude, frequency, phase, polarization (for optical signals), and even quantum-level phenomena like spin. <P> Amplitude modulation. Amplitude modulation (AM) is a modulation technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for transmitting information via a radio carrier wave. In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the carrier wave is varied in proportion to the waveform being transmitted. That waveform may, for instance, correspond to the sounds to be reproduced by a loudspeaker, or the light intensity of television pixels <P> In digital modulation, an analog carrier signal is modulated by a discrete signal. Digital modulation methods can be considered as digital-to-analog conversion, and the corresponding demodulation or detection as analog-to-digital conversion. The changes in the carrier signal are chosen from a finite number of M alternative symbols (the modulation alphabet). <P> Modulation is the process of superimposing a low frequency signal on a high frequency carrier signal. . OR. . The process of modulation can be defined as varying the RF carrier wave in accordance with the intelligence or information in a low frequency signal .. <P> In amplitude modulation, the amplitude or strength of the carrier oscillations is what is varied. For example, in AM radio communication, a continuous wave radio-frequency signal (a sinusoidal carrier wave) has its amplitude modulated by an audio waveform before transmission. Amplitude modulation (AM) is a modulation technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for transmitting information via a radio carrier wave. In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the carrier wave is varied in proportion to the waveform being transmitted. That waveform may, for instance, correspond to the sounds to be reproduced by a loudspeaker, or the light intensity of television pixels <P> Where: A is the carrier amplitude. M is the modulation amplitude and is the peak change in the RF amplitude from its unmodulated value. From this it can be seen that for an AM modulation index of 0.5, the modulation causes the signal to increase by a factor of 0.5 and decrease to 0.5 of its original level. <P> Definition [edit]. Modulation is a process of mixing a signal with a sinusoid to produce a new signal. This new signal, conceivably, will have certain benefits over an un-modulated signal. we can see that this sinusoid has 3 parameters that can be altered, to affect the shape of the graph.

which parts of the cell does the cytoplasm include
|
<P> Cytoplasm. All cells in the human body have three distinctive parts. These are the nucleus, the cytoplasm, and the cell membrane. The cell membrane is the outer-boundary of a cell, and it contains various channels to let materials into and out of a cell. The nucleus is at the center of the cell, and it is home to all of a cell’s chromosomes, or genetic material. Organelles. The organelles within the cytoplasm do not contain any of a cells genetic material, because all of that is exclusive contained within the nucleus. The organelles inside cytoplasm are very important for the maintenance of the cell. <P> Each cell has a cell membrane, which surrounds the cell and protects the inner components. These internal components include a nucleus (a central structure that holds your genetic information), ribosomes (tiny structures that make proteins) and organelles (little organs that perform various functions). Cytoplasm is the fluid that fills cells and serves several important functions. Cytoplasm holds the internal components of cells in place and protects them from damage. Cytoplasm stores molecules used for cellular processes, as well as hosts many of these processes within the cell itself. <P> It is within the cytoplasm that most cellular activities occur, such as many metabolic pathways including glycolysis, and processes such as cell division. Within the cells of eukaryote organisms the contents of the cell nucleus are separated from the cytoplasm, and are then called the nucleoplasm. The cytoplasm is about 80% water and usually colorless. <P> Inclusions. Unlike organelles, inclusions within the cytoplasm do not have membranes or take part in metabolic activities. They are typically simple crystals and granules of materials such as glycogen and silica. Glycogen is a form of glucose and an important energy source in animal cells. <P> Animal cells and plant cells. Animal cells usually have an irregular shape, and plant cells usually have a regular shape. Cells are made up of different parts. It is easier to explain what these parts are by using diagrams like the ones below. Animal cells and plant cells both contain: cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus. Plant cells also contain these parts, not found in animal cells: chloroplasts, vacuole, cell wall. The table summarises the functions of these parts. <P> Submit. · just now. Report Abuse. Cytoplasm contains the organelles of a cell, including the mitochondria, proteins, ribosomes, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus, lysosomes and the cytoskeleton. Julia · 5 years ago. <P> Organelles are specialized membrane-enclosed structures in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. The nucleus, which contains DNA in the form of chromosomes, is the most characteristic eukaryotic organelle. The nuclear envelope is connected to a system of membranes in the; cytoplasm called the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). <P> The cytoplasm comprises cytosol (the gel-like substance enclosed within the cell membrane) – and the organelles – the cell 's internal sub-structures. All of the contents of the cells of prokaryote organisms (such as bacteria, which lack a cell nucleus) are contained within the cytoplasm. Within the cells of eukaryote organisms the contents of the cell nucleus are separated from the cytoplasm, and are then called the nucleoplasm. The cytoplasm is about 80% water and usually colorless. <P> Some of the most important organelles that cytoplasm contains are the ribosomes, mitochondria, proteins, the endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, and the the Golgi apparatus. The mitochondria are areas of ‘energy-making’, because they contain the materials necessary for ATP synthesis, or the fueling of the cell. Organelles.

extensors of the forearm are found in what compartment
|
<P> Anconeus. The aconeus is situated medially and superiorly in the extensor compartment of the forearm. It is blended with the fibres of the triceps brachii, and the two muscles can be indistinguishable. 1 Attachments: Originates from the lateral epicondyle, and attaches to the posterior and lateral part of the olecrannon. There are five muscles in the deep compartment of the posterior forearm – the supinator, abductor pollicis longus, extensor pollicis brevis, extensor pollicis longus and extensor indicis. With the exception of the supinator, these muscles act on the thumb and the index finger. Supinator. <P> Deep Muscles. There are five muscles in the deep compartment of the posterior forearm – the supinator, abductor pollicis longus, extensor pollicis brevis, extensor pollicis longus and extensor indicis. With the exception of the supinator, these muscles act on the thumb and the index finger. Supinator. <P> Extensor tendon compartments of the wrist are anatomical tunnels on the back of the wrist that contain tendons of muscles that extend (as opposed to flex) the wrist and the digits (fingers and thumb). The patient presents with pain over dorsal aspect of the forearm and wrist. The tendon of 6th compartment (extensor carpi ulnaris) can suffer recurrent dislocation due to a tear of the ulnar side of the compartment. <P> The posterior compartment of the forearm (or extensor compartment) contains 12 muscles which are chiefly responsible for extension of the wrist and digits, and supination of the forearm. It is separated from the anterior compartment by the interosseous membrane between the radius and ulna. Muscles [edit]. There are generally 12 muscles in the posterior compartment of the forearm, which can be divided further into the superficial, the intermediate and the deep layer. Most of the superficial and the intermediate muscles share a common origin which is the outer part of the elbow, the lateral epicondyle of humerus <P> Muscles of the forearm segregate into these compartments consisting of (1) an anterior group (the flexors of the wrist and fingers and the pronators) and (2) a posterior group (the extensors of the wrist and fingers and the supinator) (fig. 10-1). Increased pressure in the anterior compartment of the forearm, such as can occur due to injury to the brachial artery near the elbow (e.g., from a supracondylar fracture of the humerus) can prevent normal blood flow to the compartment and ischemic damage to the deep flexors (pollicis longus and digitorum profundus). <P> This is a tutorial on the muscles of the posterior compartment of the forearm. These muscles are extensors. It’s also called the extensor compartment. Hopefully, you’ve watched the tutorial I did on the muscles of the anterior compartment. The muscles of the posterior compartment do the opposite to the anterior compartment muscles-they extend the wrist and digits, and they supinate the hands, and they have a common origin on the lateral epicondyle of the humerus. <P> http://www.anatomyzone.com. 3D anatomy tutorial on the muscles of the extensor compartment of the forearm, using the BioDigital Human Browser (http://www.biodigitalhuman.com). <P> The supinator and the anconeus are the two muscles in the posterior compartment of the forearm that do not pass through wrist extensor compartments. Muscles [edit]. There are generally 12 muscles in the posterior compartment of the forearm, which can be divided further into the superficial, the intermediate and the deep layer. Most of the superficial and the intermediate muscles share a common origin which is the outer part of the elbow, the lateral epicondyle of humeru <P> The distinction of these extensor muscles (forearm elevators) as to superficial (1-6) and deep (7-11) is much less precise than it was in the flexor compartment. Some consider there to be a single extensor compartment with digital and thumb muscles. 1 Identify brachioradialis and the superficial group of extensors. 2 Lift the brachioradialis to expose the radial nerve splitting into deep and superficial branches. 3 Verify that the radial nerve innervates all the muscles of the extensor group of the forearm.

what part of the flower is female
|
<P> The female parts of a flower are called style, ovary, ovule and stigma. All of these parts together are called the pistil. <P> The male parts of the flower are called the stamens and are made up of the anther at the top and the stalk or filament that supports the anther. The female elements are collectively called the pistil. The top of the pistil is called the stigma, which is a sticky surface receptive to pollen. <P> The female part is the pistil. The pistil usually is located in the center of the flower and is made up of three parts: the stigma, style, and ovary. The stigma is the sticky knob at the top of the pistil.

where can i find catnip oils
|
<P> Nepeta cataria, commonly known as catnip, catswort, or catmint, is a species of the genus Nepeta in the family Lamiaceae, native to southern and eastern Europe, the Middle East, central Asia, and parts of China. Nepetalactone is a mosquito and fly repellent. Oil isolated from catnip by steam distillation is a repellent against insects, in particular mosquitoes, cockroaches and termites. Research suggests that it is not as effective as a repellent when used on the skin when compared to DEET or SS220. <P> A study from China compared catnip essential oil along with other plant essential oils and DEET. Catnip essential oil (composed of 36%, 45%, 18% isomer 1, isomer 2, and caryophyllene) provided the best protection against mosquitoes and the only oil to provide complete protection for over six hours. <P> One can make a very simple blend including catnip alone in this manner: Mix 1 cup of rubbing alcohol (or Vodka) and 1 cup of water, plus 2 milliliters (40 drops) Catnip essential oil in a spray bottle. Shake vigorously. Learn about our conscientious selection process here... Catnip essential oil is an especially pungent, herbal oil. The essential oil has been found to be 10 times more effective than DEET at repelling mosquitos, and can be used at very low concentrations in your formulas for this purpose. <P> Catnip Essential Oil There are currently only two farms in Canada producing high quality catnip oil with 80-90% nepatalactone. antities. A very nice golden colored oil direct from the farm and best of all the oil has no pesticide residues! <P> The data suggests that catnip can be used as an effective insect repellent when used as an unfractionated essential oil due to the presence of both nepetalactone isomers and other components such as caryophyllene. Catnip essential oil (composed of 36%, 45%, 18% isomer 1, isomer 2, and caryophyllene) provided the best protection against mosquitoes and the only oil to provide complete protection for over six hours. <P> Safety Information: Tisserand advises that Catnip Oil may be a skin sensitizer and to use it with caution. Reading Tisserand and Young's full profile is recommended. [Robert Tisserand and Rodney Young, Essential Oil Safety (Second Edition. United Kingdom: Churchill Livingstone Elsevier, 2014), 237.]. Aromatic Description: Herbaceous with a subdued mint aroma. Catnip Oil Uses: Minimal documentation on essential oil use. Lots of anecdotal statements exist that it is effective as an insect repellent. May act as a topical anesthetic, anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatic, astringent, carminative, nervine, sedative. <P> The Nepeta plants became known as catnip very simply due to the effect of the plants on cats. The ingredient that causes a reaction in cats is called Nepetalactone. It is an essential oil found in the stems and the leaves of the Nepeta plant. This chemical is thought to mimic the effects of a cat pheromone and causes a variety of behaviors. When a cat encounters catnip, a chain reaction occurs. <P> From Ananda Aromatherapy, pure Catnip essential oil steam distilled from the flowering tops of catnip herb grown in Canada. Catnip oil has an herbaceous, complex aroma, and is prized for its exceptional ability to repel mosquitos. Learn about our conscientious selection process here...

what do people do when they lose their sight
|
<P> Unfortunately, you cannot prevent it. Many cases can be treated or corrected with lens. There are so many reasons why people lose their sight. There are many illnesses that cause the eyes to go bad or weak. I have a 4 yr old grandson who has worn glasses since he was 2 yrs old. He has a brain dysfunction that affected his eyes and speech. But, thank God he can see fine with his glasses and he is so young he does not even realize he has a problem. I am not a doctor and cannot give you all the technical names of the problems that can cause people to lose their site but eye injury is one, cataracts if not taken care of can cause it. <P> Friends and family. Of course sight loss can have an impact on others in a family. You may be the parent of a child with a sight problem, or the partner of someone who has recently been diagnosed with sight loss and you don’t know where to turn. Just how much help you will need depends on how your vision has been affected, but whatever your sight loss, we can help. Action for Blind People is an expert national organisation, ensuring blind and partially sighted people receive practical support. <P> However, the consultant may not have had the time to explain to you the vast array of opportunity and support that is available, even if nothing more can be done for your sight. We have the time, the expertise and understand the life changes that people may need to make and can help them. Just how much help you will need depends on how your vision has been affected, but whatever your sight loss, we can help. Action for Blind People is an expert national organisation, ensuring blind and partially sighted people receive practical support. <P> People who are blind do dream. The dreams of people who have been blind from a very early age (called “congenital blindness”) tend to be different from those who are blind now but had sight before. Those who are congenitally blind often have dreams that include more instances of sounds. Therefore I think they dream. People that are born blind might dream, but not as people who lost their sight, because their memory isn't filled with visual data, thus the brain creates different type of dreams based on sound and touch. <P> Blindsight is the ability of people who are cortically blind due to lesions in their striate cortex, also known as primary visual cortex or V1, to respond to visual stimuli that they do not consciously see. <P> (2). Who became blind due to any happening in life: These people see colors in their dreams but the intensity of the colors is associated with the time when they last seen the colors in their original life before being blind. Therefore I think they dream. People that are born blind might dream, but not as people who lost their sight, because their memory isn't filled with visual data, thus the brain creates different type of dreams based on sound and touch. <P> Well, people that lost their sight after some period before that, they already captured the colors from that their lens and registered them as data in their memory. As far as I know everybody knows that the sky is blue, and cherries are red, so, those people can dream though they are blind. Therefore I think they dream. People that are born blind might dream, but not as people who lost their sight, because their memory isn't filled with visual data, thus the brain creates different type of dreams based on sound and touch. <P> 155 Why Children Lose Their Vision and What We Can Do Chapter 16 W hen people confront health problems like blindness, they often look for physical and medical causes. It usually happens to children who are between 6 months and 6 years old. Children under 6 months who only breastfeed usually get enough vitamin A from their mother’s milk. Signs: 1. First, a child has trouble seeing in the dark or does not want to play outside after dark.2. <P> Losing some or all of your sight can be very distressing and have a big effect on your life. People tell us that they struggle with a range of emotions from shock, anger, sadness and frustration, to depression and grief. This is quite normal and understandably coping with these emotions can be very difficult. Just how much help you will need depends on how your vision has been affected, but whatever your sight loss, we can help.

what is wernicke korsakoff
|
<P> Wernicke's encephalopathy is a degenerative brain disorder caused by the lack of thiamine (vitamin B1). It may result from alcohol abuse, dietary deficiencies, prolonged vomiting, eating disorders, or the effects of chemotherapy. Korsakoff's amnesic syndrome-a memory disorder-also results from a deficiency of thiamine, and is associated with alcoholism. The heart, vascular, and nervous system are involved. Symptoms include amnesia, confabulation, attention deficit, disorientation, and vision impairment. <P> Definition. Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome (WKS) is a neurological disorder. Wernicke’s Encephalopathy and Korsakoff’s Psychosis are the acute and chronic phases, respectively, of the same disease. WKS is caused by a deficiency in the B vitamin thiamine. Thiamine plays a role in metabolizing glucose to produce energy for the brain. <P> Due to the close relationship between these two disorders, patients suffering from both are usually diagnosed with WKS, as a single syndrome. It is a manifestation of thiamine (vitamin B 1) deficiency, a spectrum of disorders which also encompasses beriberi, Wernicke's encephalopathy, and Korsakoff's psychosis. These disorders may manifest concurrently or separately. WKS is usually secondary to alcohol abus <P> Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome (WKS) is a type of brain disorder caused by a lack of vitamin B1. The syndrome is actually two separate conditions that can occur at the same time. Usually you’ll experience symptoms of Wernicke’s encephalopathy first. Signs of Korsakoff psychosis tend to follow as the Wernicke’s symptoms wane. If Wernicke’s disease is treated quickly and effectively, Korsakoff syndrome may not develop (Mayo Clinic). Korsakoff psychosis is the result of chronic brain damage. Korsakoff syndrome affects the areas of your brain that control memory. <P> The syndrome is a combined manifestation of two namesake disorders, Wernicke's encephalopathy and Korsakoff's psychosis, named after Carl Wernicke and Sergei Korsakoff respectively. It involves an acute Wernicke-encephalopathy phase, followed by the development of a chronic Korsakoff's syndrome phase. It is a manifestation of thiamine (vitamin B 1) deficiency, a spectrum of disorders which also encompasses beriberi, Wernicke's encephalopathy, and Korsakoff's psychosis. <P> Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome. Important. It is possible that the main title of the report Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report. <P> Knowledge center. Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome is directly caused by a thiamin deficiency and is linked to long-term (chronic) alcohol consumption-however, some patients who do not abuse alcohol may also develop this syndrome. <P> Wernicke–Korsakoff syndrome (WKS), also called wet brain, Korsakoff's psychosis, and alcoholic encephalopathy, is the combined presence of Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE) and Korsakoff's syndrome. It is a manifestation of thiamine (vitamin B 1) deficiency, a spectrum of disorders which also encompasses beriberi, Wernicke's encephalopathy, and Korsakoff's psychosis. <P> This neurological disorder is caused by a lack of thiamine (vitamin B1) in the brain, and is also often exacerbated by the neurotoxic effects of alcohol. When Wernicke's encephalopathy accompanies Korsakoff's syndrome, the combination is called the Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome. Korsakoff's is a continuum of Wernicke's encephalopathy or disease, though a recognized episode of Wernicke's is not always obvious. Korsakoff's syndrome (also called Korsakoff's dementia, Korsakoff's psychosis, or amnesic-confabulatory syndrome) is a manifestation of Wernicke's encephalopathy, also called Wernicke's disease. It happens in Wernicke's disease in almost all alcohol abuser

what is dna profiling definition
|
<P> A DNA profile is a small set of DNA variations that is very likely to be different in all unrelated individuals, thereby being as unique to individuals as are fingerprints (hence the alternate name for the technique). DNA profiling should not be confused with full genome sequencing. Although 99.9% of human DNA sequences are the same in every person, enough of the DNA is different that it is possible to distinguish one individual from another, unless they are monozygotic (identical) twins. <P> DNA profiling. DNA profiling is the process where a specific DNA pattern, called a profile, is obtained from a person or sample of bodily tissue. Even though we are all unique, most of our DNA is actually identical to other people’s DNA. <P> A method used to identify multilocus DNA banding patterns that are specific to an individual by exposing a sample of the person's DNA to molecular probes and various analytical techniques such as Southern blot analysis. DNA fingerprinting is often used to provide evidence in criminal law cases. DNA fin·ger·print·ing. a technique used to compare individuals by molecular genotyping. DNA isolated from a biologic specimen is digested and fractionated. Southern hybridization with a radiolabeled repetitive DNA provides an autoradiographic pattern unique to the individual. Synonym(s): DNA profiling, DNA typing. <P> Definition of DNA FINGERPRINTING. : a technique used especially for identification (as for forensic purposes) by extracting and identifying the base-pair pattern in an individual's DNA —called also DNA typing. — DNA fingerprint noun. See DNA fingerprinting defined for kids. ADVERTISEMENT <P> DNA is made up of molecules called nucleotides. Each nucleotide contains a phosphate group, a sugar group and a nitrogen base. The four types of nitrogen bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C). The order of these bases is what determines DNA's instructions, or genetic code. <P> DNA profiling (also called DNA fingerprinting, DNA testing, or DNA typing) is a forensic technique used to identify individuals by characteristics of their DNA. Although 99.9% of human DNA sequences are the same in every person, enough of the DNA is different that it is possible to distinguish one individual from another, unless they are monozygotic (identical) twins. <P> A technique used especially for identification (as for forensic purposes) by extracting and identifying the base-pair pattern of an individual's DNA -- called also DNA typing, genetic fingerprinting. Definition from: Merriam-Webster's Medical Dictionary by Merriam-Webster Inc. DNA fingerprinting is a laboratory technique used to establish a link between biological evidence and a suspect in a criminal investigation. A DNA sample taken from a crime scene is compared with a DNA sample from a suspect. <P> DNA profiling. DNA profiling is a technique employed by forensic scientists to assist in the identification of individuals by their respective DNA profiles. DNA profiles are encrypted sets of numbers that reflect a person's DNA makeup, which can also be used as the person's identifier. <P> DNA profiling uses repetitive (repeat) sequences that are highly variable, called variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs), in particular short tandem repeats (STRs). VNTR loci are very similar between closely related humans, but are so variable that unrelated individuals are extremely unlikely to have the same VNTRs. Although 99.9% of human DNA sequences are the same in every person, enough of the DNA is different that it is possible to distinguish one individual from another, unless they are monozygotic (identical) twins. <P> DNA Profiling Law & Legal Definition. DNA profiling is a technique employed by forensic scientists to assist in the identification of individuals on the basis of their respective DNA profiles. The term is also known as DNA testing, DNA typing, or genetic fingerprinting. DNA profiles are encrypted sets of numbers that reflect a person's DNA makeup.

why does the cerebral cortex contain so many folds
|
<P> The surface of the brain has fissures or folds to increase the surface area for the cortex. Dumber animals such as rats have smooth brains. Much of the work carried out in the brain is performed by the top few layers of cells, a lot of the brain’s volume is, in effect, point-to-point wiring. <P> Cerebral Convolutions: The reason your cerebral cortex has so many folds, like a wrinkled up walnut, is that there is a limited amount of space inside your skull. By wrinkling up, the cortex creates more space to fit in more neurons. <P> Share. The cerebral cortex is the layer of the brain often referred to as gray matter. The cortex (thin layer of tissue) is gray because nerves in this area lack the insulation that makes most other parts of the brain appear to be white. The cortex covers the outer portion (1.5mm to 5mm) of the cerebrum and cerebellum. <P> Cerebral Cortex The cerebral cortex is the outer surface of the cerebral hemispheres. It is the highest level of the brain and has about 20 billion neurons in the human brain which carry out the highest levels of mental functioning. The cerebral cortex is a layer of grey matter up to about 1/2 cm thick. <P> This is where the wrinkles come in. The surface of your brain is called the cortex, and the cortex is the part of your brain that contains your neurons. The more surface your brain has, the more cortex it has. The more cortex it has, the more neurons it has. The more neurons it has, the smarter it is.

<P> The cost of veneers will vary depending on the difficulty of your individual case, the amount of veneers needed, and the city and state you are located in. Only your individual dentist can tell you what the final cost will be. Typically, veneers can cost on average $1000 per tooth. between $800 and $2, <P> 1 At 0.2mm-0.3mm thick, the Lumineers brand of veneers are thin like a contact lens, and cost $700-$1,300 per tooth, or total costs of $2,800-$5,500 on four upper front teeth. 2 Veneers are considered purely cosmetic and are rarely covered by dental insurance. <P> Although the cost of veneers varies significantly, there are national averages serving as a price indicator. Composite veneers cost per tooth ranges between $250 and $1,500. Porcelain veneers cost per tooth ranges between $925 and $2,500. <P> This is an expensive treatment and will cost you USD 700 to USD 1000 or more per tooth. The cost may vary from place to place. The average cost of lumineers is much higher than the porcelain veneers average cost. This is because the lumineers are very thin, and so you do not need to do as much tooth preparation. <P> Porcelain veneers are one the most expensive types of veneers, but they are also one of the longest lasting. Porcelain veneers cost can range anywhere from $1000 to $3000 per tooth. This seems a bit steep for some, but they can last anywhere from 10-15+ years. <P> A poor result may cost you far more in the long run. On average, Lumineers or traditional veneers can cost anywhere between $800 and $2,000 per tooth, depending on individual cases and needs. Factors that will influence the cost of treatment are case difficulty, size, geography, and more. <P> Porcelain veneers are more expensive than indirect or direct composite resin veneers. Traditional porcelain veneers cost between $925 and $2,500 per tooth but can last 10 to 15 years. Composite veneers cost approximately $250 to $1500 per tooth and may last between five and seven years.

how long does a rabies shots for humans last
|
<P> Rabies Shots are only effective for 1 year. There is a 3 Year vaccine, but most states only recognize the 1 Year vaccine and so require a dog/cat to be vaccinated every year. … No matter if they received the 1 Year or 3 Year Vaccination. 2 people found this useful. Some sources say 2-3 years but that titers should be checked after two years. Emergency room physicians that gave me a rabies vaccination series a few months ago after a cat bite said that immunity lasts one year. <P> Rabies postexposure vaccinations consists of a dose of human rabies immune globulin and four doses of rabies vaccine given on the day of the exposure, and then again on days 3, 7, and 14. The vaccine is given in a muscle, usually in the upper arm. This set of vaccinations is highly effective at preventing rabies if given as soon as possible following an exposure. If a person has previously received postexposure vaccinations or received preexposure vaccinations, only two doses of vaccine (on the day of exposure and then 3 days later) are needed. Human rabies immune globulin is not required. Your doctor and local health department will be able to guide you through the process <P> Report Abuse. Some states now say animals only need rabies shots every 3 years; however, some states (like Alabama where I live) still requires a rabies vaccination yearly. I have heard there is no need for them every year and that is why many states have changed it to every 3 years. A rabies shot last for one year, however, if they are bit by a rabid animal in that time, they may need a booster shot as well at that time. <P> Report Abuse. Where I live there are 1 year and 3 year shots. For the first shot a 1 year is given or if the 3 year one expires before another one is given you have to have a 1 year shot. Otherwise it is a 3 years shot. Your rabies certificate should say when the shot expires. A rabies shot last for one year, however, if they are bit by a rabid animal in that time, they may need a booster shot as well at that time. <P> This is called postexposure prophylaxis * . The person receives one dose of rabies immune globulin * , which provides the body with antibodies against rabies, followed by five doses of rabies vaccine * given over a period of 28 days. Once a person has been infected with the rabies virus, symptoms may appear as soon as 10 days or as long as 90 days after exposure. These symptoms typically happen in stages. <P> There are a number of reputable sources online that state that immunity lasts at least 2 years. Some sources say 2-3 years but that titers should be checked after two years. Emergency room physicians that gave me a rabies vaccination series a few months ago after a cat bite said that immunity lasts one year. <P> Get help from a doctor now ›. Uncertain: We really are not 100% certain. Cdc feels--if high risk--test every 2 years (e.g. Vet working in rabies zone) latest who consensus is every 10 years. In general, if continued risk, recommend periodic retesting titers though immunity may persist even when antibodies are no longer detectable. Maybe lifelong but.. <P> Best Answer: Colorado requires rabies shots for cats every three years, although it does seem to me that the first one only lasts a year. What shots your cat receives should be decided upon by you and your vet, based on the cat's risks. A rabies shot last for one year, however, if they are bit by a rabid animal in that time, they may need a booster shot as well at that time. <P> How long does a rabies shot last? it depends on the type of animal,for example u have to give a cat rabies shots every 3 years, dogs rabies shots every 5-7 years or lower. You have to take prophylactic vaccine … for rabies on day 0, 7, 28 and 90 or on day 0, 28 and then on day 90. Booster doses are to be taken yearly.

what cause hives
|
<P> Acute urticaria: Hives lasting less than six weeks. The most common causes are certain foods, medications, or infections. Insect bites and internal disease may also be responsible. The most common foods that cause hives are nuts, chocolate, fish, tomatoes, eggs, fresh berries, and milk. Fresh foods cause hives more often than cooked foods. <P> Hives and angioedema can be caused by: 1 Foods. 2 Many foods can trigger reactions in people with sensitivities. 3 Shellfish, fish, peanuts, tree nuts, eggs and milk are frequent offenders. 4 Medications. 5 Almost any medication may cause hives or angioedema. <P> Hives, also known as urticaria, are red welts that appear on the skin and are typically caused by an allergic reaction to foods or medication. They may appear like a normal skin rash that is slightly raised, forming in large patches. <P> Urticaria, also known as hives, is an outbreak of swollen, pale red bumps or plaques (wheals) on the skin that appear suddenly -- either as a result of the body's reaction to certain allergens, or for unknown reasons. Hives usually cause itching, but may also burn or sting. <P> Hives are a skin rash condition known medically as urticaria. Hives are a type of skin allergy or rash that is caused by an allergen in most cases. Hives are raised welts on the skin’s surface that are generally circular with a pale center and red halo. <P> Hives are also known as urticaria, welts, wheals, or nettle rash. It is a red, raised, itchy skin rash that is sometimes triggered by something that produces an allergic reaction-an allergen. When there is an allergic reaction the body releases a protein called histamine.

in a synapse where are neurotransmitters stored
|
<P> synaptic vesicles. The chemical synapse is bounded by the ________ neuron, from which neurotransmitters are released across the synaptic cleft, to the ________ neuron, where the receptors for that neurotransmitter are located. <P> An action potential cannot cross the synaptic cleft between neurones. Instead the nerve impulse is carried by chemicals called neurotransmitters. These chemicals are made by the cell that is sending the impulse (the pre-synaptic neurone) and stored in synaptic vesicles at the end of the axon. <P> Molecules of neurotransmitters are stored in small packages called vesicles (see the picture on the right). Neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal when their vesicles fuse with the membrane of the axon terminal, spilling the neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft. Unlike other neurotransmitters, nitric oxide (NO) is not stored in synaptic vesicles. <P> Neurotransmitters are formed in a presynaptic neuron and stored in small membrane-bound sacks, called vesicles, inside this neuron. When this neuron is activated, these intracellular vesicles fuse with the cell membrane and release their contents into the synapse, a process called exocytosis. <P> At rest, neurotransmitter-containing vesicles are stored at the terminal of the neuron in one of two places. A small number of vesicles are positioned along the pre-synaptic membrane in places called active zones.. This is where neurotransmitter release occurs. <P> Neurotransmitters and Neuroactive Peptides. Communication of information between neurons is accomplished by movement of chemicals across a small gap called the synapse. Chemicals, called neurotransmitters, are released from one neuron at the presynaptic nerve terminal.

<P> Full Definition of AMPERSAND. : a character typically & standing for the word and. See ampersand defined for English-language learners. See ampersand defined for kids. ADVERTISEMENT. <P> Etymology [edit]. The Roman ampersand on the left is stylised, but the italic one on the right is clearly similar to et. A mondegreen of and per se and, meaning and (the character) '&' by itself, which is how the symbol (&) was originally referred to in English. <P> The ampersand should not be confused with the Tironian et (⁊), which is a symbol similar to the numeral 7. Both symbols have their roots in the classical antiquity, and both signs were used up through the Middle Ages as a representation for the Latin word et (and). The ampersand often appeared as a letter at the end of the Latin alphabet, as for example in Byrhtferð's list of letters from 1011. Similarly, & was regarded as the 27th letter of the English alphabet, as used by children (in the US). <P> Over the next six centuries the ampersand gradually became more elaborate until we get the form of the symbol that is used today: The name for the symbol, “ampersand”, didn’t commonly come into use until the 19th century, from “and per se and”, meaning more or less: “and [the symbol] by itself is and”. Today I found out where the ampersand symbol and name came from. The symbol for “&” comes from combination of letters in the Latin for “and”, “et”. Specifically, in Old Roman cursive, it became common to combine e’s and t’s, which produced something like this: <P> URL example. Within a URL the ampersand is used to separate variables. For example, in the example below there are two different variables, q that equals example search and example that equals test. These variables can be read by the search.cgi script and used to perform different functions. Ampersand. The Ampersand (&) symbol, also referred to as the epershand or and symbol, is found above the number 7 key on a US QWERTY keyboard. In literature or English text, the ampersand is used as shorthand to mean and, as in John & Rob went to the baseball game <P> The word ampersand is a corruption of the phrase and (&) per se and, meaning and (the symbol &) intrinsically (is the word) and .

Similarly, & was regarded as the 27th letter of the English alphabet, as used by children (in the US). <P> The ampersand can be used to indicate that the and in a listed item is a part of the item's name and not a separator (e.g. Rock, pop, rhythm & blues, and hip hop). The ampersand may still be used as an abbreviation for and in informal writing regardless of how and is used.

Similarly, & was regarded as the 27th letter of the English alphabet, as used by children (in the US). <P> The word ampersand is not an acronym. It's the term used to describe this (&) symbol. An ampersand is usually used in the place of the word And.. For example, the fast food … restaurant A&W stands for Allen and Wright, the companies two founders. The symbol & was one of several used over history to stand for and. The name comes from contraction of and per se and, meaning (the character) '&' by itself is 'and.' … The symbol is based on the Latin word et meaning and. <P> This page is about the meaning, origin and characteristic of the symbol, emblem, seal, sign, logo or flag: Ampersand.

how deep do you plant canna bulbs
|
<P> Plant canna rhizomes between 2 and 5 inches deep, depending on their size. In general, multiply the rhizome's diameter by two or three for the right planting depth. Position the rhizome on its side. The stems and tightly rolled leaves extend from the rhizome's ends until they reach the light. <P> 1 Cannas can be started in the house in small pots if your gardening season is short. 2 Where not hardy, plant outdoors in early summer—around the same time you'd put in tomato plants. 3 To plant, loosen the soil to a depth of 12 to 15 inches, then mix in a 2- to 4-inch layer of compost. <P> Our souces suggest plannting cannas about 4 inches deep, laying them horizontally, with eyes up (if you can find the eyes) in rich, most moisture-retentive soil. Fertlize when you plant with a balanced mix (or per the instructions on the canna packaging) and once a month in the summer. <P> Plant cannas to a depth two to three times the height of the bulb. Measure distance from the bottom of the bulb and cover with loose soil. Keywords: canna bulbs, planting bulbs, canna planting depth. <P> Plant rhizomes in the spring. Canna plants prefer a rich, organic soil. Plant in full sun. Canna needs plenty of water, but soil should be well draining (except varieties grown in water). Divide roots, leaving one or two growing tips on each section. Plant roots 3 to 4 inches deep, separated one to three feet apart. <P> Unlike most bulbs, cannas can thrive in moist soils but will not tolerate standing in water puddles. 3- How to Plant your Canna Bulbs: For outdoor planting, dig holes that are 4 to 6 inches deep, and 2 feet apart for tall varieties and 1 foot for the others. Then dig in a little peat moss and perlite. For planting in pots, fill a large pot to within 6 inches of the top with a well-draining potting mix into which you have added a little peat moss and perlite. Place one bulb into each hole. If your pot is large, you can plant two or three canna bulbs in each pot. <P> After the first frost dig up the canna bulbs and cut off the foliage to about 2-3 inches from the bulb. Place the bulbs in a dry area to cure for a couple of days. Then wrap the bulbs in newspaper and store in a cool, dry place for the winter. Do not water. In the spring plant outside and then dig up in the fall.

<P> For a closer look, check out:VIDEO: How to Cook Pasta with Giuliana. EIGHT STEPS TO PERFECT PASTA. 1 For every one pound of pasta, bring 5 quarts of water to a rolling boil. 2 Once water is boiling, then add about 2 tbsp. of coarse salt, or 1/4 cup table salt. 3 Stir to keep the pasta from sticking. 4 Stir within the first 2 minutes of cooking pasta. 1 For every one pound of pasta, bring 5 quarts of water to a rolling boil. 2 Once water is boiling, then add about 2 tbsp. of coarse salt, or 1/4 cup table salt. 3 Stir to keep the pasta from sticking. <P> The length of time it needs to cook will depend if it's regular spaghetti noodles, thin spaghetti, vermacelli, or angel hair. Read the box, it will give you an idea as to how long to cook that particular type of noodle. Source(s): MarLo · 8 years ago. <P> Spaghetti takes about 10 minutes to cook as long as you bring the water to the boil before you add it :) hope this helps. Then place it cut side down in a pan and put about a half inch of water in the pan. Bake about 350 degrees for 20 to 30 minute … s. Then scrape the insides with a fork into a bowl. The bowl of squash will look like a bowl of yellow spaghetti <P> Don't rely on the package to give you the correct cooking time (this is only a guideline). Start timing when the water returns to a boil. Most pastas cook in 8 to 12 minutes. Test dry pasta for doneness after about 4 minutes of cooking by tasting it. It is difficult to give exact cooking times since different shapes and thickness of pasta will take less or more time to cook. To cook pasta properly, pasta needs a lot of water. A too-small pot and too little water encourages the pasta to clump and stick together, thus cooking unevenly. For a pound (16 ounces) of pasta, you will want a pot that holds at least 5 or 6 quarts of water. <P> Bake for about 40 minutes, or until you can easily pierce the squash with a fork. Let cool for about 15 minutes, or until squash is cool enough to handle. With a fork, scrape out the spaghetti-like strands and prepare as desired.

what is the function of an antibody
|
<P> To enhance the function of phagocytosis. The antibody binds to the antigen (on the organism). The antibody also binds to the phagocyte thus facilitating the coming together of … the antibody and phagocyte and phagocytosis can then proceed. 1 person found this useful. Antibodies have a number of functions, they can directly kill the invader, or they can recruit cell to the infection. Different antibodies work on different substances; this is why you need immunizations, so your body knows which antibodies to make for those diseases. <P> The antibody binds to specific antigens. This signals the other cells of the immune system to get rid of the invading microbes. The strength of binding between the antibody and an antigen at a single binding site is known as the antibody’s affinity for the antigen. Immunoglobulins are basically proteins that function as antibodies. The terms antibody and immunoglobulin are often used interchangeably. Immunoglobulins are found in blood and other tissues and fluids. They are made by the plasma cells that are derived from the B cells of the immune system. <P> Antibodies Defined. Antibodies are proteins that are produced by the immune system to help stop harm from occurring. They are also called immunoglobulins. When an intruder, such as a virus, bacteria, or other chemical, enters the body, the immune system springs into action. Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins that latch onto antigens, invaders looking to cause harm or infection to the body. The antibodies work with the immune system to destroy these antigens. For every different kind of antigen, there is a different type of antibody. <P> Answer An antibody is what your body produces to fight of disease and infection. When a person has an autoimmune disease, the body's antibodies are attacking hea … lthy and normal cells. 3 people found this useful. Antibodies have a number of functions, they can directly kill the invader, or they can recruit cell to the infection. Different antibodies work on different substances; this is why you need immunizations, so your body knows which antibodies to make for those diseases. <P> The two structural portions of the antibody, i.e. the variable (Fab) and the constant (Fc) fragments, impart distinct biological functions. These functions are outlined as follows: Fab-mediated functions: 1 Antigen recognition – One of the major functions of the Fab region is antigen recognition. 2 The immune system generates large number of antibodies that can recognize virtually all possible antigens present in pathogens and their products. 1 <P> Each antibody binds to a specific antigen; an interaction similar to a lock and key. An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shape protein produced by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to identify and neutralize pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. The antibody recognizes a unique molecule of the harmful agent, called an antigen, via the variable region. Though strictly speaking, an antibody is not the same as an immunoglobulin; B cells can produce two types of immunoglobulins-surface immunoglobulins, which are B cell receptors; and secreted immunoglobulins, which are antibodies. So antibodies are one of two classes of immunoglobulins <P> Confidence votes 108. An antibody is a protein that your body produces which binds to the surface of a foreign body, like a bacteria or virus, and prevents it from actively damaging your body. Antibodies, generally bind other proteins, and they will bind to specific portions of the proteins. Answer An antibody is what your body produces to fight of disease and infection. When a person has an autoimmune disease, the body's antibodies are attacking hea … lthy and normal cells. 3 people found this useful. <P> Functions [edit]. Antibodies are major components of humoral immunity. IgG is the main type of antibody found in blood and extracellular fluid allowing it to control infection of body tissues. By binding many kinds of pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi, IgG protects the body from infection.

<P> The Alaska Permanent Fund is a constitutionally established permanent fund managed by a state-owned corporation, the Alaska Permanent Fund Corporation (APFC). The fund was established in Alaska in 1976 by Article 9, Section 15 of the Alaska State Constitution under Governor Jay Hammond. The Alaska Permanent Fund Corporation manages the assets of both the Permanent Fund and other state investments, but spending Fund income is up to the Legislature. The Corporation is to manage for maximum prudent return, and not—as some Alaskans at first wanted—as a development bank for in-state projects <P> 2. Canada Permanent Trust Company was the previous name of Canada Trust. it came about with the merger of Canada Trust and the Permanent Trust Company in the late 70's early 80's the Permanent was eventually dropped. LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked MaltedMilk for this post. They had a building on Bay, just south of Adelaide in Toronto. The building is now CIBC Melon, a company jointly owned by CIBC and NY Melon. During a previous Doors Open, I got a chance to take some pictures in there. Absolutely beautiful building. <P> Now that you have the idea of what Irrevocable means, how does that apply to a Trust. Basically an irrevocable Trust is a Trust in which you have made the decision not to have the capacity to REVOKE it. This means that it is permanent and that whatever you set forth in the Declaration of Trust is the way it will stay. Comment. What if I have a irrevocable trust in I want to get a divorce after being marriage for 25 year can my wife get any of my money from my trust I set up the irrevocable trust in 2014 please let me know. As with all trusts, the devil is in the details. <P> Once the trust is funded with the grantor’s residence, the residence and any future appreciation of the residence are excluded from the grantor’s estate, if the grantor survives the term of the trust, as explained below. Personal residence trusts (“PRTs”) are irrevocable split interest trusts. If a grantor dies during the retained term of a residence trust, the full value of the trust property is included in the grantor’s estate under Code Section 2036(a)(1) (because the grantor retains the right to possess or enjoy the property). <P> The Permanent Endowment Trust Fund was established in the Arizona Constitution under Article 10, Section 7. The Arizona Constitution requires the Treasurer to deposit and track the proceeds of land sales in the endowment fund according to the grant under which the land was conveyed to the State. <P> The property is held by a Trustee in the name of the trust and managed by the Trustee for the benefit of a Beneficiary. You (the Grantor) can be the Trustee and Beneficiary of your own Living Trust, and retain management control over your own property. The beneficiary is the person or persons for whom the trust is for. After the death of the grantor, the trustee will divide the trust property among the beneficiaries in accordance with the terms of the trust. <P> The Alaska Permanent Fund Corporation is a government instrumentality of the State of Alaska created to manage and invest the assets of the Alaska Permanent Fund and other funds designated by law.

See peptone defined for kids. ADVERTISEMENT <P> Peptone Special is an ingredient of media where a wide range of fastidious organisms are to be cultured. It is an enzymatic digest of animal tissues, carefully processed to ensure consistent growth characteristics when used in differential media. <P> Best Answer: Peptone is used in media as food for bacteria. It is obtained through partial hydrolysis of a protein by an acid or enzyme. Agar is an unbranched polysaccharide made from the cell walls of red algae or sea weed. It is used as a microbiological culture medium by dissolving it in hot water, and then cooling it to form a jelly. Agar and peptone are used together for bacterial cultures. <P> πεπτός, digested, derived from πέσσειν, to digest) are biologically occurring short chains of amino acid monomers linked by peptide (amide) bonds. The covalent chemical bonds are formed when the carboxyl group of one amino acid reacts with the amino group of another. Amino acids that have been incorporated into peptides are termed residues due to the release of either a hydrogen ion from the amine end or a hydroxyl ion from the carboxyl end, or both, as a water molecule is released during formation of each amide bond. <P> Product Description Bacto ™ Peptone is an enzymatic digest of animal protein. Bacto Peptone was first introducedin 1914 and became the standard Peptone for the preparation of bacteriological culturemedia. The nutritive value of Bacto Peptone is largely dependent on the amino acid contentthat supplies essential nitrogen. <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time.

what is gmo foods

<P> Save. DAJ/amana images/Getty Images. According to the World Health Organization, or WHO, genetically modified foods were introduced to the market in the mid-1990s with herbicide-resistant soybeans. The most common genetically modified foods are corn, canola, soybean and cotton, which is used to make cottonseed oil. Crop Durability and Food Security. Scientists developed genetically modified, or GM, plants by introducing genes that kill insects or weeds or protect against viruses. Some GM plants require less water so they can be grown in areas of the world where water is scarce or during times of drought. <P> Most vegetable oil used in the US is produced from GM crops canola, corn, cotton and soybeans. Vegetable oil is sold directly to consumers as cooking oil, shortening and margarine and is used in prepared foods. There is a vanishingly small amount of protein or DNA from the original crop in vegetable oil. As of 2011, the US is the leading country in the production of GM foods. Twenty-five GM crops had received regulatory approval. In 2015, 92% of corn, 94% of soybeans, and 94% of cotton produced in the US were genetically modified. <P> A GMO (genetically modified organism) is the result of a laboratory process where genes from the DNA of one species are extracted and artificially forced into the genes of an unrelated plant or animal. The foreign genes may come from bacteria, viruses, insects, animals or even humans. <P> A genetically modified organism (GMO), also known as a transgenic organism, is any organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques (i.e. genetically engineered organism). In 2014, sales of products which had been labeled as non-GMO grew 30 percent to $1.1 billion. There is a general scientific agreement that food from genetically modified crops is not inherently riskier to human health than conventional food. <P> Genetically modified (GM) foods are foods derived from organisms whose genetic material (DNA) has been modified in a way that does not occur naturally, e.g. through the introduction of a gene from a different organism. <P> 1. Corn. One of the most prominent GMO foods, avoiding corn is a no-brainer. If you’ve watched any food documentary, you know corn is highly modified. “As many as half of all U.S. farms growing corn for Monsanto are using genetically modified corn,” and much of it is intended for human consumption. Wheat REALLY needs to be mentioned here as a GMO food. The VAST majority of the world's wheat crop has been genetically modified to increase yielde per acre – they call this dwarf wheat, and is an entirely different type of wheat than what our ancestors used to eat. <P> Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are living organisms whose genetic material has been artificially manipulated in a laboratory through genetic engineering. Almost all commercial GMOs are engineered to withstand direct application of herbicide and/or to produce an insecticide. Despite biotech industry promises, none of the GMO traits currently on the market offer increased yield, drought tolerance, enhanced nutrition, or any other consumer benefit. <P> Genetically modified foods (GMO foods) have been shown to cause harm to humans, animals, and the environment, and despite growing opposition, more and more foods continue to be genetically altered. Wheat REALLY needs to be mentioned here as a GMO food. The VAST majority of the world's wheat crop has been genetically modified to increase yielde per acre – they call this dwarf wheat, and is an entirely different type of wheat than what our ancestors used to eat. <P> The genetically modified foods controversy is a dispute over the use of food and other goods derived from genetically modified crops and other uses of genetic engineering in food production. As of 2011, the US is the leading country in the production of GM foods. Twenty-five GM crops had received regulatory approval. In 2015, 92% of corn, 94% of soybeans, and 94% of cotton produced in the US were genetically modified.

what did the berlin conference do
|
<P> The Berlin Conference of 1884–85, also known as the Congo Conference (German: Kongokonferenz) or West Africa Conference (Westafrika-Konferenz), regulated European colonisation and trade in Africa during the New Imperialism period, and coincided with Germany’s sudden emergence as an imperial power. <P> This fact inspired the Great Act of the Berlin Conference, and Africa was split into 50 countries across boundaries that split natural allies and joined warring enemies. Using military and economic savvy, the main countries that benefited from this coup were France, Germany, Great Britain, and Portugal. <P> The Berlin Conference of 1884–85, also known as the Congo Conference (German: Kongokonferenz) or West Africa Conference (Westafrika-Konferenz), regulated European colonization and trade in Africa during the New Imperialism period, and coincided with Germany's sudden emergence as an imperial power. Before the conference, European diplomacy treated African indigenous people in the same manner as the New World natives, forming trading relationships with the indigenous chiefs. By the mid-19th century, Europeans considered Africa to be disputed territory ripe for exploration, trade, and settlement by their colonists. <P> Share to: The countries that attended the Berlin Conference (1884-1885) were Austria-Hungary, Belgium, Danmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, R … ussia, Spain, Sweden-Norway (unified from 1814-1905), the Ottomn Empire (Turkey), and the United States of America. 63 people found this useful.

what temp should a fridge be at
|
<P> 1 Keep the refrigerator temperature at or below 40° F (4° C). 2 The freezer temperature should be 0° F (-18° C). 3 Check temperatures periodically. 4 Appliance thermometers are the best way of knowing these temperatures and are generally inexpensive. 1 Also, when putting food away, don't crowd the refrigerator or freezer so tightly that air can't circulate. 2 Keep your appliances at the proper temperatures. 3 Keep the refrigerator temperature at or below 40° F (4° C). 4 The freezer temperature should be 0° F (-18° C). 5 <P> Normally a domestic freezer is best set to −18 °C (0 °F) or colder, as that's what the expiration dates for many food items are based on. It's also a requirement for freezers in restaurants, supermarkets & other places that sell food (at least here in Europe) to maintain a temperature of at most -18 °C. A general purpose domestic fridge should be at around 1-4 °C (so, just above the freezing point, and below 5 °C). In order to keep food out of the Danger Zone, your fridge must be set between 32-40°F (0-4°C). Your freezer must be below 32°F (0°C). I keep mine as cold as it will go. Keep your freezer efficient by half-filling it with bottles of water. <P> 1 A fridge should have a temperature of between 37°F(3°C) and 40°F (5°C). 2 Any higher and the food will go off, any lower and you’ll lose nutrients and fresh food can be ruined. 3 The ideal freezer temperature is 0°F (-18°C) which will store food safely and stop bacteria forming. To measure the temperature: 1 Fridge: put the thermometer in a glass of water. 2 Check the temperature during the first door opening after not using the fridge for 8 hours or more (such as overnight). 3 Freezer: put thermometer between two bags of vegetables and as above check after 8 hours or more. <P> Therefore, you want your refrigerator to be cold, but not so cold that it freezes things. The preferred temperature is somewhere between 35 and 38 degrees F (1.7 to 3.3 degrees C). Anything higher and foods will spoil too quickly (it also presents food poisoning problems, as described in several of the links below). <P> If you keep potatoes in the fridge they should not be stored at temperatures below 7 °C (45 °F). If, that is, you intend to use them for roasting for frying. At lower temperatures the starch in the potato breaks down giving a burnt look and a bitter taste after roasting. In order to keep food out of the Danger Zone, your fridge must be set between 32-40°F (0-4°C). Your freezer must be below 32°F (0°C). I keep mine as cold as it will go. Keep your freezer efficient by half-filling it with bottles of water. <P> In order to keep food out of the Danger Zone, your fridge must be set between 32-40° F (0-4 degrees Celsius). Your freezer must be below 32° F (0° Celsius). I keep mine as cold as it will go. Keep your freezer efficient by half-filling it with bottles of water. You're not hugging the danger zone like you would be at 40° F (4.4° C), and you're distancing yourself sufficiently from 32° F (0° C) that you don't freeze half the stuff in your refrigerator. <P> Commercial (store) freezers are kept at 0 degree F, because of the large amount of products that need to be kept frozen. Home freezers and the freezer side of a refrigerator are usually about 20 deg F. Make sure when you store food in either side, that it is not packed tightly. There should be space for air circulation to maintain correct temperatures. The refrigerator side should have a temp between 35-40 degrees F. <P> Everyone should have a refrigerator thermometer to monitor temperature. Buy the best quality thermometer that you can afford. To check the temperature of your refrigerator, put a glass of water in the middle of the refrigerator and put the thermometer in it. Wait 8 hours before checking temperature. <P> 1 If you do lose power, keep the doors to your fridge and freezer closed as much as possible to keep foods cold. 2 Before using any foods, check your refrigerator and freezer thermometers. 3 If the fridge is still at or below 40 °F, or the food has been above 40 °F for only two hours or less, it should be safe to eat. <P> The FDA advises that you should keep the temperature of your fridge between 32 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit, preferably right in the middle of that range, at, say, 35 degrees. Set the temperature at 35, and you avoid the risk of frozen food (that’s what the freezer’s for!) and you avoid the risk of spoilage. That said, this does not mean the temperature inside your fridge will be uniformly 35; temperatures can vary depending on the part of the fridge. So, in conclusion: set your fridge temp at 35 and be mindful of what you put in the door. While you’re at it with the fridge, make sure to set your freezer temperature below 32 degrees. This sounds super obvious, but it’s super important.

what vitamins are good for inflammation in the body
|
<P> Vitamins that may help reduce inflammation include A, E, C, K, B6 and D. Considered a possible treatment for inflammation, vitamin E is found in many food sources, such as sunflower oil. Vitamin D, which is produced naturally within the body when skin is exposed to sunlight, is good for inflammation. The Vitamin C found in citrus fruit may help reduce inflammation. Cranberry pills can help with inflammation. Vitamin A may help diminish inflammation of the lungs. <P> People who have low levels of vitamin B6 tend to have high levels of C-reactive protein, which is a measure of inflammation within the body. Vegetables that are high in B vitamins, including B6, include mushrooms, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, and bell peppers. Animal sources include turkey, chicken, cod, and tuna. <P> Many health experts believe that vitamin E is also among the best vitamins for inflammation. Specifically, vitamin E may reduce the occurrence of heart-related inflammation. This vitamin can be found in a range of foods, including some grains, nuts, leafy vegetables, poultry, and certain oils. <P> ______________________________________________________________________________. The different roles and actions of vitamins for inflammation is an important concept that should be known to all. These 6 vitamins seem to have anti-inflammatory actions that work in reducing inflammation in our body naturally. <P> Supplements, including herbs and vitamins, have been shown to possess powerful properties that effectively treat various types of inflammation. Among the most studied and potent in this category are ginger, omega-3s, resveratrol, curcumin, vitamins C and E and quercetin. <P> Inflammation is part of the body’s immune response; without it, we can't heal. But when it's out of controlas in rheumatoid arthritisit can damage the body. Plus, it's thought to play a role in obesity, heart disease, and cancer. Foods high in sugar and saturated fat can spur inflammation.

After she successfully tamed and brought the little creature back to their camp, Bane used the Force to snap its neck and had her drop it in a pot of bubbling stew. The neeks would become jittery at the first sign of danger, as their visual and aural sense were far more attuned than most sentient species in the galaxy. Over time, the neeks developed an immunity to the dark side of the Force, due to them living in close proximity to the dark side nexus that was Lake Natth. <P> Neeks were reptilian herbivores, averaging at about thirty centimeters in height, indigenous to the planet Ambria. They were non-sentient, and could often be seen congregating in flocks of about half a dozen, banding together for protection against the larger, carnivorous creatures, such as the Hssiss.

how much does it cost to buy a toyota dealership
|
<P> Secret factory to dealer incentives can be $1,000-$6,000 in addition to known rebates! Because of these secret incentives, if you buy a car at invoice, the dealer earns thousands more. You should haggle over this incentive, as many dealers willingly give up all or part of this incentive, making your cost lower. <P> This check will be done whether you purchase directly from Toyota or from a franchise owner. Get your financing in order. The cost for a Toyota franchise will vary greatly depending on location. Prices range from $500,000 to $15,000,000 plus. You must have at least 15 percent down of money not tied to your assets. <P> Toyota cars are known for reliability and high quality. Prices start around $16,000 for a basic Yaris and go all the way up to $80,000 for a Land Cruiser. This huge price range reflects a wide range of body styles, from compacts like the aformentioned Yaris to larger vehicles like the Sienna minivan and 4Runner SUV. <P> 1 The true dealer cost of a Toyota Tacoma is lower. 2 The invoice price has Holdback and other hidden markup built into the price. 3 Knowing the true dealer cost gives you needed leverage when it comes time to negotiate a great price. 4 Negotiate from the cost up and not MSRP down. <P> To be fair for both sides, you should make an offer of 3% - 5% over the actual dealer's cost, not above the invoice price. Dealerships will gladly accept a 5% profit. In fact, many dealers survive on 3%. <P> If you buy a car in a dealership, the dealer can offer you a price for your old car. This amount will be taken off the price of the new car. A discount may be offered by the dealer to sweeten the deal. The final price you pay is called the 'changeover price'. <P> 1 The invoice price & true dealer cost are not the same. 2 The true dealer cost of a Toyota Tacoma is lower. 3 The invoice price has Holdback and other hidden markup built into the price. 4 Knowing the true dealer cost gives you needed leverage when it comes time to negotiate a great price. <P> Invoice Price is the Amount the Dealer Paid not the Cost. This can get somewhat confusing so the best way to understand it is to think of it like a rebate you get from a product. If you buy something for $39 and send in a $10 rebate form, you paid $39 but it only cost you $29.

what are muscles made of
|
<P> Every fibre of the muscle is approximately forty millimeter in length and is made up of a number of very small strands which are known as fibrils. These fibres are extremely slender, so much so that one square centimeter of a muscle contains in it up to one million fibres. Each fibre is commanded by a nerve which makes it to contract. The number of fibres, contracting, determine the strength of muscles work. Muscle is mainly composed of muscle cells. Within the cells are myofibrils; myofibrils contain sarcomeres, which are composed of actin and myosin. Individual muscle fibres are surrounded by endomysium. <P> The muscular system is responsible for the movement of the human body. Attached to the bones of the skeletal system are about 700 named muscles that make up roughly half of a person’s body weight. Each of these muscles is a discrete organ constructed of skeletal muscle tissue, blood vessels, tendons, and nerves. Muscle tissue is also found inside of the heart, digestive organs, and blood vessels. In these organs, muscles serve to move substances throughout the body.... <P> All muscles are basically made of the same material, a kind of elastic tissue; packages of stretchable fiber-like material, similar to what goes into making a rubber band. Each muscle is made of thousands, and sometimes tens of thousands of small musculus fibers. Striated muscles consist of thousands of sarcomeres-muscle units. The muscle has a striped (striated) appearance when viewed under a microscope because each sarcomere is made up of parallel bands of different materials. When various bands in the sarcomeres relax or contract, the whole muscle extends or relaxes. <P> Functions of the Muscles. The Human muscular system is made up of a complex network of soft tissues which are called muscles. Muscle tissue is found throughout the human body and it has the following functions; 1 Movement. 2 Skeletal muscles attached to the skeleton move the body by moving bones. 1 Within each skeletal muscle, the muscle fibers are separated into groups. 2 Each group, which resembles a bundle of sticks tied together, is called a fascicle (bundle). 3 Surrounding each fascicle is a layer of fibrous connective tissue called perimysium (around the muscle [fascicle]). <P> Skeletal muscle is made up of individual muscle cells or myocytes, known as muscle fibers. They are formed from the fusion of developmental myoblasts (a type of embryonic progenitor cell that gives rise to a muscle cell) in a process known as myogenesis. Muscle fibres are cylindrical, and multinucleated. <P> Muscles are made of protein, and their building blocks are the amino acids. When you use your muscles in daily activity or exercise, they are broken down. But protein repairs this damage and rebuilds muscle. <P> Muscle tissues are derived from the mesodermal layer of embryonic germ cells in a process known as myogenesis. There are three types of muscle, skeletal or striated, cardiac, and smooth. Muscle action can be classified as being either voluntary or involuntary. 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). <P> Muscle is a soft tissue found in most animals. Muscle cells contain protein filaments of actin and myosin that slide past one another, producing a contraction that changes both the length and the shape of the cell. 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).

prevailing wage definition
|
<P> The prevailing wage is defined as the hourly wage and the usual benefits and overtime paid to the majority of workers, laborers, and mechanics within a particular geographic area. <P> Trade and public work wages paid to the majority of workers in a specific area. The prevailing wage is usually an hourly wage and determines overtime pay as well as benefits for laborers in that field. Overall, employment in the town was relatively steady, but the prevailing wage was lower than average and a source of complaint for many workers. 9 people found this helpful. I wondered what the prevailing wage would be at the job I took because I would not work for no money again. 7 <P> Prevailing wage may include both wages, benefits, and other payments such as apprenticeship and industry promotion. It encompasses the compensation for a worker given for performed labor. The Federal Davis-Bacon Act and Related Amendments pertain to federally funded projects. Supporters suggest that prevailing wage laws seek to prevent public construction projects from destabilizing a local construction industry and to advance other priorities such as workforce development, green building, and greenhouse gas reduction. <P> Prevailing wage. In government contracting, a prevailing wage is defined as the hourly wage, usual benefits and overtime, paid to the majority of workers, laborers, and mechanics within a particular area. The goal is that, with everyone playing on a level field, contractors seek to maximize their workers' output and their own ability to manage work better than their competition. In practice, a construction project will have most of the same workers on the job whether it is a prevailing wage job or not. <P> Prevailing wages is a term used in a legislative effort to provideorganized labor a fair chance to bid for government contracts. Federal law requires all employers engaged in the performance of federal contracts to pay prevailing wages to their workers. This ensures that nonunion employers cannot gain an unfair bidding advantage by paying wages far below the union rate and passing the savings on to the government in lower bid <P> Prevailing Wage is defined as the hourly wage, usual benefits and overtime, paid in the largest city in each county, to the majority of workers, laborers, and mechanics. Prevailing wage rates are published the first business day in August and in February and take effect 30 days after publication. The publications are necessary to adjust the rates based on rate surveys, changes to the minimum wages, and changes to rates that are based on a union majority. <P> Prevailing wages are established by regulatory agencies for each trade and occupation employed in the performance of public work, as well as by State Departments of Labor or their equivalents. Prevailing wages were first established shortly after the Civil War when Congress passed the National Eight Hour Day law. Supporters suggest that prevailing wage laws seek to prevent public construction projects from destabilizing a local construction industry and to advance other priorities such as workforce development, green building, and greenhouse gas reduction. <P> Prevailing Wage. It is the wage construction and maintenance contractors must pay their employees for work on projects paid for by public funds, such as a state office building or county roads. L&I is responsible for establishing these wages. <P> A prevailing wage is a rate of pay determined by the U.S. Department of Labor based upon the particular geographic area for a given class of labor and type of project. Federal law requires all employers engaged in the performance of federal contracts to pay prevailing wages to their workers. <P> A. The prevailing wage rate is the basic hourly rate paid on public works projects to a majority of workers engaged in a particular craft, classification or type of work within the locality and in the nearest labor market area (if a majority of such workers are paid at a single rate).

what are aeolian processes
|
<P> 1 2 3 4. Now that we have observed landforms created by aeolian processes, let's examine the mechanisms of wind-action, and how these processes shape the landforms that we observed. <P> Aeolian processes, in the study of geology and weather, pertain to wind activity and specifically to the wind's ability to shape the surface of the Earth. Winds may erode, transport, and deposit materials, and are effective agents in regions with sparse vegetation and a large supply of unconsolidated sediments. <P> The term Aeolian describes the process of wind erosion, deposition, and how it is transported. It also has to do with the deposits that wind leave behind, such as sand dunes. A sand dune is an elongated mound of sand formed by wind or water. In this paper we are only going to look at wind made dunes. <P> Aeolian Transport is the first process of coastal dune formation and involves the movement and weathering of sand particles behind and parallel to the shoreline. There are three main processes involved in Aeolian Transport: 1 Suspension-The finer sand particles are moved by the wind, high in the air. <P> Aeolian geology is the study of landforms formed by wind (Aeolus is the wind god in Greek mythology). On Mars, where other processes such as fluvial erosion, volcanism, and tectonism are slow, intermittent, or do not occur in the present era, aeolian activity is the most dynamic geologic process in non-polar areas. Numerous depositional and erosional landforms attributable to wind activity are present. <P> Aeolian Processes are related to wind activity and how wind can erode, transport, and deposit sediments. Throughout the different sites visited during the Bodega Bay field trip on January 31, 2015, there were several sources of evidence observed of Aeolian processes taking place. <P> Large basins are complex and there is often one or more non-aeolian processes work. These non-aeolian processes include tectonics, glacial and alluvial forces. (See Table 1) Depositional Landforms Deposition is the laying down of sediment transported by wind, water or ice.

what is the blackfoot language called
|
<P> Blackfoot (also called Blackfeet, Pikanii) is an Algonquin language spoken by the Native American Blackfoot tribe. Primarily, it is spoken in southern Alberta. However, it is also spoken in Montana. There are about 5,000 Blackfoot speakers in Canada, and 5,100 speakers total. Schools on Blackfoot preserves are working to encourage the use of the language. In certain areas, Blackfoot is still used as the principle language among older Native Americans. Younger Blackfoot generations prefer English <P> Blackfoot Language. The Blackfoot language is important to the Blackfoot. It helps them understand their relationship with the rest of Creation and reinforces their values and beliefs. The Blackfoot language in this website uses the Kainai version for many of the words and concepts. We hope this will help preserve Blackfoot and encourage others to learn the language. <P> There is a distinct difference between Old Blackfoot (also called High Blackfoot), the dialect spoken by many older speakers; and New Blackfoot (also called Modern Blackfoot), the dialect spoken by younger speakers. Among the Algonquian languages, Blackfoot is relatively divergent in phonology and lexicon. Like the other Algonquian languages, Blackfoot is typologically polysynthetic. The Cuts Wood Academy in Browning, Montana, founded by Darrell Kipp and the Piegan Institute, offers language immersion instruction in Blackfoot. Blackfoot language has been on a drastic decline in the number of native speakers and now faces extinction in the early 21st century. Once, the Blackfoot people were one of a few Native American nations that inhabited the Great Plains west of the Mississippi river. <P> The Blackfoot Confederacy or Niitsitapi (ᖹᐟᒧᐧᒣᑯ, meaning original people) is the collective name of three First Nation band governments in the provinces of Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia. It is also a Native American tribe in Montana, United States. The Niitsitapi, also known as the Blackfoot Indians, reside in the Great Plains of Montana and the Canadian provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. Only one of the Niitsitapi tribes are called Blackfoot or Siksika. The name is said to have come from the color of the peoples’ moccasins, made of leather. <P> 1 Each of the four tribes, although independent, share one official language called Algonquian. 2 This language is also spoken by many other Indian tribes in the U.S. 3 The Europeans arrival in the 1800's meant big changes for the Blackfoot. Blackfoot Indian Facts. The Blackfoot, who are also called Blackfeet, Indians were originally a nomadic American Indian tribe that migrated from the Great Lakes region to the Northwestern United States. They lived in the Northern Great Plains, specifically in Montana and Idaho as well as Alberta Canada <P> Blackfoot is an Algonquian language spoken primarily in Alberta and Montana. There are approximately 5000 speakers in Canada, and another 100 in Montana (Gordon 2005). Blackfoot is an endangered language, as it is no longer common for children to learn the language. <P> Blackfoot, also known as Siksika (ᓱᖽᐧᖿ) – the language's denomination in ISO 639-3 – Pikanii, Pied Noir, and Blackfeet, is the Algonquian language spoken by the Blackfoot tribes of Native Americans, who currently live in the northwestern plains of North America. Nearly all speakers live in Canada. Blackfoot language has been on a drastic decline in the number of native speakers and now faces extinction in the early 21st century.

what is the function of an egg shell membrane
|
<P> Inner shell membrane. These two membranes -- outer and inner -- are just inside the shell surrounding the albumen (white). The two membranes provide an efficient defense against bacterial invasion and are made partly of keratin. The outer membrane sticks to the egg shell while the inner membrane sticks to the albumen. When an egg is first laid, it is warm. As it cools, the contents contract and the inner shell membrane separates from the outer shell membrane to form the air cell (see 14 below). <P> An eggshell is the outer covering of a hard-shelled egg and of some forms of eggs with soft outer coats. <P> There are various ways in which the membrane of an eggshell is separated from the shell, including chemical, mechanical, steam and vacuum processes: see Eggshell and protein membrane separation. The isolated membrane is then partially hydrolyzed and dried to produce a powder, distributed as eggshell membrane (EM). <P> 1 The outer membrane sticks to the egg shell while the inner membrane sticks to the albumen. 2 When an egg is first laid, it is warm. 3 As it cools, the contents contract and the inner shell membrane separates from the outer shell membrane to form the air cell (see 14 below). <P> 1 Exterior albumen (outer thin albumen) — The outer thin albumen is a narrow fluid layer next to the shell membrane. 2 Middle albumen (inner thick albumen) -The inner thick white (chalaziferous layer) is a dense, matted, fibrous capsule of albumen around the vitelline membrane of the yolk. <P> The shell and shell membrane also function to keep the nutrients inside the egg. The inside of the shell is lined by the double-layered shell membrane. One of the functions of the shell membrane is to provide a barrier to disease organisms (for example bacteria). <P> 1 The entry for the fertilization of the egg. 2 Shell Membrane: The egg's second line of defence against bacteria. 3 There are two membranes on the inside of the shell: one sticks to the shell and the other surrounds the albumen. <P> 1 When an egg is first laid, it is warm. 2 As it cools, the contents contract and the inner shell membrane separates from the outer shell membrane to form the air cell (see 14 below). 3 Chalaza – are twisted in opposite directions and serve to keep the yolk centered.

<P> About Ecuador. Ecuador is situated along the north west coast of South America, and it borders the countries of Peru and Columbia. Ecuador’s capital is Quito which is less than 15 miles from the equator. The Galapagos Islands are considered a province of Ecuador. Ecuador is divided into 24 provinces. Its three largest cities are Guayaquil, Quito, and Cuenca. The national currency is the US dollar. With the Andes Mountains and the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador is one of the top tourist destinations in South America. <P> After Guayaquil, Quito is the second most populous city of Ecuador. By virtue of situated at the elevation of 2,800 meters, Quito is the second highest capital city of the world (the first one is La Paz-Bolivia). Interestingly, Quito and Krakow have been declared as the first World Cultural Heritage Sites by UNESCO in the year 1978. Quito is the second most significant city that contributes to the national GDP after Guayaquil. It has also the second highest per capita income after Cuenca. But Quito has the highest level of tax collection in Ecuador <P> Quito (. [ˈkito]), formally San Francisco de Quito, is the capital city of Ecuador, and at an elevation of 2,850 metres (9,350 ft) above sea level, it is the highest official capital city in the world. Parque Bicentenario is the second largest urban park in Quito (surpassed only by the Parque Metropolitano), located in the site of the Old Mariscal Sucre International Airport. It was inaugurated on April 27, 2013. This park has 200 acres (81 ha), and it's located at 2,800 m (9,186 ft), above mean sea level. <P> The central square of Quito is located about 25 kilometres (16 mi) south of the equator; the city itself extends to within about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) of zero latitude. Parque Bicentenario is the second largest urban park in Quito (surpassed only by the Parque Metropolitano), located in the site of the Old Mariscal Sucre International Airport. It was inaugurated on April 27, 2013. This park has 200 acres (81 ha), and it's located at 2,800 m (9,186 ft), above mean sea level. <P> Quito’s Altitude, Climate, and Weather. Quito’s altitude, at 2820 M (9252 feet), Quito is almost twice as high as Denver, Colorado. Though because it sits only 25 kilometres from the Equator, Quito does not suffer through long winters like the Mile High City. On the contrary, Ecuador’s capital enjoys mild days and cool nights almost year-round <P> Quito is located in the northern highlands of Ecuador in the Guayllabamba river basin. The city is built on a long plateau lying on the east flanks of the Pichincha volcano.

what is focal dystonia
|
<P> Dystonia is a disorder characterized by involuntary muscle contractions that cause slow repetitive movements or abnormal postures. The movements may be painful, and some individuals with dystonia may have a tremor or other neurologic features. Cervical dystonia, also called spasmodic torticollis or torticollis, is the most common of the focal dystonias. In cervical dystonia, the muscles in the neck that control the position of the head are affected, causing the head to turn to one side or be pulled forward or backward. Sometimes the shoulder is pulled up. <P> Focal Dystonia (isolated region): Focal dystonia describes cases with involvement of isolated areas, such as the muscles of the neck in torticollis, the muscles around the eyes in blepharospasm, or the muscles of the hand in writer’s cramp. The best treatments depend on the type of dystonia. For many focal dystonias, injection of botulinum toxin as a muscle relaxer is the treatment of choice. Botulinum toxin can virtually eliminate the jerky posturing of the head in torticollis or the eye spasms in blepharospasm. <P> FOCAL DYSTONIA. Focal dystonia is a neurological condition affecting a muscle or group of muscles in a specific part of the body causing an undesirable muscular contraction or twisting. Many sufferers have continuous pain, cramping and relentless muscle spasms due to involuntary muscle movements <P> Definition. Focal dystonia is an irregular movement disorder specific to one part of the body. In dystonia, muscle contractions cause irregular movements, twitches, tics, and twisted or repetitive postures. These may be continuous or off and on. The most common types of focal dystonia are: 1 Blepharospasm—an eye twitch. <P> Dystonia is a neurological movement disorder. It is caused by the brain sending incorrect information to the muscles and is characterised by involuntary, prolonged muscle contractions, which cause affected parts of the body to be twisted into abnormal postures. <P> Dystonia is a neurological condition with a very broad range of manifestations. The basic underlying problem involves over-activity of the main muscles needed for a movement, extra activation of other muscles that are not needed for the movement, and simultaneous activation of muscles that work against each other. The best treatments depend on the type of dystonia. For many focal dystonias, injection of botulinum toxin as a muscle relaxer is the treatment of choice. Botulinum toxin can virtually eliminate the jerky posturing of the head in torticollis or the eye spasms in blepharospasm. <P> For example, in focal hand dystonia, the fingers either curl into the palm or extend outward without control. In musicians, the condition is referred to as Musician's Focal Dystonia, or simply musician's dystonia. In sports, it is commonly referred to as (the) yips. <P> In this article. Dystonia is a movement disorder in which a person's muscles contract uncontrollably. The contraction causes the affected body part to twist involuntarily, resulting in repetitive movements or abnormal postures. Dystonia can affect one muscle, a muscle group, or the entire body. <P> Knowledge center. The yips refer to a very real physical condition called focal dystonia. Dystonia is a neurologic disorder characterized by involuntary movements or spasms of small muscles. In focal hand dystonia, the fingers either curl into the palm or extend outward without control.

how much meat should a person eat 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> 1 Next, they’d figure out that 20-30% of 2500 calories is between 500-750 calories. 2 They’d then divide 500 and 750 by 9 (because there’s 9 calories per gram of fat) and get a range of 55-83. 3 So, in this example, this person would eat between 55-83 grams of fat per day. 1 They’d then divide 500 and 750 by 9 (because there’s 9 calories per gram of fat) and get a range of 55-83. 2 <P> Consuming around 46 grams of protein per day if you're female and 56 grams per day if you're male will meet your protein needs, whether you get your protein from meat or from plant sources. A 3-ounce portion of meat contains 21 to 24 grams of protein. Three 3-ounce meat servings per day would supply all your protein needs, but this much meat could include a large amount of saturated fat, which could increase your risk of heart disease. What you do need is the nutrients that make up meat, such as amino acids -- the building blocks of protein -- fats, iron and other vitamins and minerals. <P> Protein. The 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend specific amounts of each food group, based on the amount of calories you ingest daily. For example, if you take in 2,000 calories each day, you should consume about 5 1/2 ounces of protein daily. The protein group contains all types of meat, poultry, seafood, eggs, nuts and seeds, as well as legumes, which are protein-rich and also included in the vegetables group. Eating a nutritious, well-balanced diet with appropriate amounts of each food group is one way to guarantee good health. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, there are five basic food groups: fruits, vegetables, protein, grains and dairy. <P> A person who consumes 2,000 calories daily should eat about 5½ ounces of protein each day. You can get protein from seafood, lean meat and poultry, as well as eggs, beans and peas, tofu, nuts, and seeds. 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> The answer varies depending on the meat source, the weight and health of the person, the amount of exercise she/he gets, the gender and so forth. However, the average adult person should eat between 5 and 6 ounces of quality meat, or protein, daily. <P> Five portions of fruit and veggies per day help people live longer-a team from the Karolinska Institute, Sweden, reported in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (July 2013 issue) that if you eat your five-a-day portions of fruit-and-veggies you are likely to live longer. Calories are a measure of how much energy there is in the food we eat. By understanding calories you can work out how much food you need to eat. Different foods have varying number of calories per gram or ounce of weight. Below are some general daily calorie requirements for males and females. <P> Your intake of grain-based foods should total about 6 ounces daily if you consume 2,000 calories, with at least half of this amount from whole grains and the remainder from enriched grains. Whole-grain foods retain the bran, which is the fibrous, outer covering of the grain that provides dietary fiber. Eating a nutritious, well-balanced diet with appropriate amounts of each food group is one way to guarantee good health. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, there are five basic food groups: fruits, vegetables, protein, grains and dairy. <P> Risks of Too Much Meat. Eating one serving per day of red meat might increase your risk of dying from cancer or heart disease by 13 percent, according to a Harvard School of Public Health study published in the April 2012 issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine.. What you do need is the nutrients that make up meat, such as amino acids -- the building blocks of protein -- fats, iron and other vitamins and minerals. <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).

what to do if your dining room table is scratched deep
|
<P> 1 Lightly sand the Formica top to remove burn marks or scorching. 2 Apply a laminate repair product that allows you to match the surface appearance of your dining room table, as sanding may change its look. 3 Apply furniture polish when dry. <P> Repair deep gouges or scratches in the surface of your dining room table with a color-matched laminate repair paste. Some kits require you to mix a resin and catalyst together to re-create the plastic resin material, while others allow to you mix and match the right colors in a chip seal product. <P> If the scratch is deep and the piece is coated with poly, plan on refinishing the entire surface. Use 320-grit sandpaper to remove the existing finish. Use a 400-grit sandpaper to smooth out the scratch. Wipe the surface with a cloth soaked in mineral spirits to remove the sanding dust. <P> Originally Posted by Robzherenow.

Start with a 300-grit paper to remove the finish, then change to a 400-grit to smooth it even more. Wipe the tape down with a slightly damp rag to remove dust. Brush on a wood stain that matches the rest of the wood. <P> Reputation: 127. Advertisements. We just brought a very nice formal dining room set and before we begin using it, I was wondering what is the best way to protect the table from scratches and marks (from plates, utensils, etc). <P> No matter how hard you try to protect your furniture and your dining table, scratches are inevitable, especially if you have children. However, do not get discouraged over small or even deep scratches. They can be repaired. You can temporarily fix the scratches to hide them, or completely remove them. <P> If the scratch is not deep and the wood has not been covered with polyurethane, use a finish or stain pen to cover the scratch. These pens resemble a marker and come in a variety of colors to match almost any wood stain. Gently rub the scratched area with 00-gauge steel wool.

average cost of renting a car
|
<P> On July 6, the average rate for a weekly rental of a compact car booked a week in advance from an airport location was $396.50, up from $296.43 a year ago. There is sticker shock, says Neil Abrams, president of Abrams Consulting. <P> In early July, the average rate for a one-day rental of a midsized car booked a week in advance from an airport location was $99.81, up from $75.96 a year ago. That extra $23.85 per day can put a real dent in your vacation budget. <P> The average weekly cost of an Enterprise rental car will depend mostly upon the size and features of your selected vehicle. An economy car, such as a Chevy Aveo, gives you great mpg, but is the smallest of the options available. This car will cost an average of $125 to $150 per week. <P> Standard. Cars in the standard-or full-size rental class range in price from $55 to $75 per day. Standard cars offer the most room for the best price. In addition to two adults in the front, the back seats of full-size cars are roomy enough to comfortable fit two adults and a child. <P> The average cost of a house for rent in Florida ranges from $800 to $1500 per month depending on factors such as size, outdoor space, local ameneties and location. <P> On July 6, the average rate for a weekly rental of a compact car booked a week in advance from a non-airport location was $198.03, up from $174.34. And if higher rates weren't bad enough, there are also fewer cars available for renting this summer. <P> Intermediate-or mid-size rental cars are a step up from the compact class in both pricing and roominess. Intermediate cars cost approximately $50 to $70 per day and can comfortably accommodate two adults and two children. <P> Standard car: The average cost of $84.40 can be deceiving.

how much fiber should a diabetic woman eat per day
|
<P> So just how much fiber do you need? The national fiber recommendations are 30 to 38 grams a day for men and 25 grams a day for women between 18 and 50 years old, and 21 grams a day if a woman is 51 and older. Another general guideline is to get 14 grams of fiber for every 1,000 calories in your diet. <P> The ADA: http://www.diabetes.org/food-and-fitness/food/what-can-i-eat/carbohydrates.html. For good health, adults need to try to eat 25 to 30 grams of fiber each day.. You can also go to http://nutritiondata.self.com/tools/calories-burne d. Put in your info, and one of the items is the recommended amount of fiber. I personally get my fiber from nuts and vegetables. Works for me <P> 1 People with diabetes should consume at least the recommended amount of fiber for the general population: about 25 grams per day for women and 38 grams per day for men. 2 Many Americans only get about half of what is recommended. <P> The problem is that 50 grams of fiber per day is a lot of fiber. Most Americans consume only 15 grams every day, according to the American Heart Association, and the American Diabetes Association recommends that people with diabetes eat 25 to 50 grams daily. Check nutrition labels to see how much fiber there is in the foods you eat, says LuAnn Berry, RD, a certified diabetes educator and diabetes specialist at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. <P> The TLC diet calls for you to consume 10 to 25 grams of soluble fiber each day to reduce your LDL cholesterol. Soluble fiber is found in psyllium seeds, legumes, fruits, some vegetables, barley and oats. Nuts and seeds are also rich in soluble fiber. Your total fiber needs—soluble plus insoluble fiber--are based on your individualized calorie recommendations. According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010, you should aim for 14 grams of fiber for each 1,000 calories you consume. <P> For example, eat 38 grams of fiber each day if you’re a man ages 19 to 50, 30 grams per day if you’re a man age 50 or older, 25 grams if you’re a woman ages 19 to 50, 21 grams if you’re a woman age 50 or older, 28 grams if you’re pregnant and at least 29 grams of fiber each day if you’re breastfeeding. For example, if you require 2,000 calories per day for healthy weight maintenance you should consume 28 grams of fiber each day, and if you need 3,000 calories you should eat 42 grams of fiber every day. It is ideal to get your fiber from a well-balanced diet containing plenty of fiber-rich foods. <P> Adequate intake levels for total fiber are 21 grams per day for women ages 50 and older, 25 grams for women younger than age 50, 30 grams for men ages 50 and older and 38 grams of fiber each day for men younger than age 50. Your total fiber needs—soluble plus insoluble fiber--are based on your individualized calorie recommendations. According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010, you should aim for 14 grams of fiber for each 1,000 calories you consume. <P> A 2000 study of 13 patients showed that patients with diabetes who consumed 50 grams of fiber each day lowered their glucose levels 10% and insulin levels 12% more than those who consumed 24 grams of fiber a day. Check nutrition labels to see how much fiber there is in the foods you eat, says LuAnn Berry, RD, a certified diabetes educator and diabetes specialist at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. <P> The average adult only eats 15 grams of fiber per day. Women need 25 grams of fiber per day, and men need 38 grams per day, according to the Institute of Medicine. Eating more plant foods -- vegetables, beans, fruit, whole grains, and nuts -- is the best way and is one of the major recommendations from the U.S. government's 2010 Dietary Guidelines

how to cook a medium steak
|
<P> Step 1: Preheat a barbecue grill or flatplate on medium-high. Brush both sides of the steak with olive oil to prevent it from sticking to the barbecue. This is better than brushing the barbecue, as it prevents the oil from burning. Excess oil can create smoke and cause flare-ups on the barbecue. <P> Place your steak into pan and time 30 seconds, then turn the steak. again time 30 seconds then turn it. Continue to turn steak every 30 seconds until you get rare medium or well done. once cooked let meat rest for 3 minutes. 1 Rather than oiling the pan, brush the steak with oil to prevent it sticking. 2 Cook a 2cm-thick piece of steak for 2-3 minutes each side for rare, 4 minutes each side for medium, and 5-6 minutes each side for well-done. 3 Turn the steak only once, otherwise it will dry out. <P> Medium Steaks: An Unhappy Compromise. The best thing you can say about a steak cooked medium is that it's the steak least likely to offend, which is really not saying much. The inside of a medium steak is mostly gray with a small amount of pink at the center and no red. So let's say you're throwing a grill party. <P> A medium rare steak should be warm through the middle with a hint of red. Most of the center of the steak should be pink. The sides should be well browned, the top and bottom caramelized to a dark brown color with good grill marks. This steak should have a firm surface but give towards the middle. A Well Done steak is the hardest to cook. The secret is to do it low and slow. It's the only way to prevent burning while fully cooking it through the middle. Grill this steak over a medium heat between 10 and 12 minutes per side. Most people will tell you that this is the steak for people who don't like steak. While there is some truth to that, it is a popular request so, any good griller needs to know how to do it <P> About 20 minutes before grilling, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let sit, covered, at room temperature. Heat your grill to high. Brush the steaks on both sides with oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Place the steaks on the grill and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the steaks over and continue to grill 3 to 5 minutes for medium-rare (an internal temperature of 135 degrees F), 5 to 7 minutes for medium (140 degrees F) or 8 to 10 minutes for medium-well (150 degrees F). When I order a steak in a restaurant I ask for medium rare...closer to rare than medium and my steak always (or almost always) comes to me perfectly cooked. The key is to order the correct cut of steak for grilling and the correct cooking time. Otherwise you'll receive hot shoe leather. <P> 1 Cook a 2cm-thick piece of steak for 2-3 minutes each side for rare, 4 minutes each side for medium, and 5-6 minutes each side for well-done. 2 Turn the steak only once, otherwise it will dry out. 3 Always use tongs to handle steak as they won't pierce the meat, allowing the juices to escape. 1 Rather than oiling the pan, brush the steak with oil to prevent it sticking. 2 Cook a 2cm-thick piece of steak for 2-3 minutes each side for rare, 4 minutes each side for medium, and 5-6 minutes each side for well-done. 3 Turn the steak only once, otherwise it will dry out. <P> That video Cooking Class will teach you how to make a delicious Steak-The steak is sauteed in oil and finished basted with butter-You will learn how to identify different cooking temperatures-Rare Steak-Medium Rare Steak-Medium Steak-Medium well Steak-Well Done steak-All the cuts below can use that cooking technique.

asbestos abatement cost per sf
|
<P> If asbestos is found, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has guidelines for proper removal of asbestos. Ask the asbestos abatement professional for an estimate on how much this will cost. Usually, it is around $2 or $3 per square foot. For instance, if you have a building that has 1,750 square feet and was quoted $2 per square foot for asbestos removal, the cost for this part of the demolition will cost $3,500. Add this price to the amount the professional asbestos inspector charged for the discovery of asbestos. <P> 1 Some companies might charge a minimum fee of as much as $2,500 or more. 2 Asbestos removal cost for an entire home could be $25,000 to $35,000. 3 Asbestos disposal cost should be included in the initial price quote. Asbestos is a fibrous silicate mineral that, prior to 1980, was used in a wide variety of building materials and other products because of its strength, fire and heat resistance, affordability, and other desirable characteristics. <P> Ductwork made of asbestos is a major concern because, when it begins to deteriorate, fibers are blown into the house. Talk with an asbestos abatement contractor about removal. Removing ductwork costs from $12 to $25 per lineal foot—from $1,000 to $2,000 for a standard-sized basement. New ductwork is an additional cost. Wrapped ducts should be removed if the wrapping is friable. <P> 6. Repair = $9 – $15 per square foot (approx. 40% of removal cost). Removal teams are usually composed of two different companies; one that conducts asbestos inspections and one to remove the asbestos. While some companies are able to offer both services, many do not in the interest of conflict of interest. Depending on how small or large the job, your costs should be anywhere from $1500 – $30,000 with most companies dictating set fees for smaller jobs. There are several abatement options that may be offered to you based on your initial inspection; removal, enclosure, encapsulation and repair. <P> 1 Some contractors have a minimum fee of $1,500-$3,000, no matter how small the job is. 2 And a complete removal in a 1,500 square foot home with asbestos everywhere--walls, floors, ceilings, attic, roof, pipes--could be as high as $20,000-$30,000. 1 Have an independent inspector do an initial asbestos inspection; the White Lung Association says this costs $400-$800 for an average 1,500 square foot house, including lab fees; and a re-inspection at the end of the project can be $200-$400. 2 If lab work is done separately, a sample analysis averages $25-$75. <P> Asbestos Abatement Average Costs. The actual cost of asbestos abatement may vary depending on your location, the size of the job, and other factors. 1 It costs $400 to $500 for professional home asbestos testing. 2 A professional inspection before and after the removal, recommended by some experts, might cost $600 to $1,200. Asbestos is a fibrous silicate mineral that, prior to 1980, was used in a wide variety of building materials and other products because of its strength, fire and heat resistance, affordability, and other desirable characteristics. <P> 1 Removing a 10-foot section of asbestos pipe insulation could be $400-$650. 2 Some contractors have a minimum fee of $1,500-$3,000, no matter how small the job is. 3 And a complete removal in a 1,500 square foot home with asbestos everywhere--walls, floors, ceilings, attic, roof, pipes--could be as high as $20,000-$30,000. 1 Have an independent inspector do an initial asbestos inspection; the White Lung Association says this costs $400-$800 for an average 1,500 square foot house, including lab fees; and a re-inspection at the end of the project can be $200-$400. 2 If lab work is done separately, a sample analysis averages $25-$75. <P> 1 The removal period is an entirely separate process and requires containment of any debris or dust. 2 The average costs vary, but standard removal runs at $15 to $25 per square foot while encapsulation or enclosure of stable asbestos runs around $2 to $6 per square foot; 1 It is hard to simply look at a material in order to know if asbestos is present, and this usually means that a sampling is the first step in the process. 2 The SeattleAsbestosTest.com website indicates that a standard on site sampling will range from $250 to $750. <P> 1 And a complete removal in a 1,500 square foot home with asbestos everywhere--walls, floors, ceilings, attic, roof, pipes--could be as high as $20,000-$30,000. 1 Have an independent inspector do an initial asbestos inspection; the White Lung Association says this costs $400-$800 for an average 1,500 square foot house, including lab fees; and a re-inspection at the end of the project can be $200-$400. 2 If lab work is done separately, a sample analysis averages $25-$75.

what is sip alg cisco
|
<P> TCP proxy is an essential component that terminates a TCP connection passing through NAT ALG and regenerates the TCP connection. This connection allows NAT ALG to modify the TCP payload without any TCP session handling issues. The table below identifies the six available SIP request messages. By default, support for SIP is enabled on the standard TCP port 5060 to exchange SIP messages. You can also configure nonstandard ports for SIP to operate. NAT ALG accepts and attempts fixup operations on all TCP segments that originate from or are destined to the configured SIP port. <P> The NAT TCP SIP ALG Support feature adds NAT ALG support for fixing up TCP-based SIP messages. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an ASCII-based, application-layer control protocol that can be used to establish, maintain, and terminate calls between two or more endpoints. By default, support for SIP is enabled on the standard TCP port 5060 to exchange SIP messages. You can also configure nonstandard ports for SIP to operate. NAT ALG accepts and attempts fixup operations on all TCP segments that originate from or are destined to the configured SIP port. <P> SIP ALG should be disable into the router. I have manage to run following command to disable SIP ALG, no ip nat service sip udp port 5060. I cannot find any other command to disable SIP ALG. IP Phone provider said SIP ALG should be disable router wide and not just specific to one port. <P> An application-layer gateway (ALG) is used with NAT to translate the SIP or Session Description Protocol (SDP) messages. This module describes the NAT TCP SIP ALG Support feature and explains how to configure it. 1 Finding Feature Information. 2 Prerequisites for NAT TCP SIP ALG Support. By default, support for SIP is enabled on the standard TCP port 5060 to exchange SIP messages. You can also configure nonstandard ports for SIP to operate. NAT ALG accepts and attempts fixup operations on all TCP segments that originate from or are destined to the configured SIP port. <P> Objective. Application Level Gateway (ALG) facilitates the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) to support address and port translation as it allows the Network Address Translation (NAT) traversal to be plugged into the gateway. By doing this operation ALG allows SIP to operate through NAT. Check Enable to enable this feature or uncheck Enable to disable the SIP ALG features. If this feature is disabled, the router blocks all the incoming calls to the User Agent Client (UAC). The UAC is a client application which uses a network protocol to have communications between both ends of the communication session. <P> SIP application-level gateway (ALG) parses the Contact header and uses the IP address and the port value in the Contact header to create a firewall pinhole and a Network Address Translation (NAT) door. SIP ALG creates a firewall pinhole or a Network Address Translation (NAT) door based on the first value in the Via header field for each SIP request received, except the acknowledge (ACK) message. <P> So unless you know the SIP ALG on your router/firewall works (the SIP ALG on a Cisco router for example), we recommend that you disable it and all NAT traversal technologies including, but not limited to, SIP ALG (ALG), and SIP Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI), and SIP Transformations. NAT (Network Address Translation) is a technology most commonly used by firewalls and routers to allow multiple devices on a LAN with 'private' IP addresses to share a single public IP address. <P> The SIP ALG Hardening for NAT and Firewall feature provides better memory management and RFC compliance over the existing Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) application-level gateway (ALG) support for Network Address Translation (NAT) and firewall. SIP ALG creates a firewall pinhole or a Network Address Translation (NAT) door based on the first value in the Via header field for each SIP request received, except the acknowledge (ACK) message. <P> Anonymous said... I've had 2 routers with SIP ALG in them and had to disable this feature on both routers. What it does for me is disable inbound VoIP traffic. The caller can hear me, but I cannot hear them. Many of today's commercial routers implement SIP ALG, coming with this feature enabled by default. Basics SIP ALG operations. 1-Control SIP call activity,The call duration and inactivity media timeout features help you to conserve network resources and maximize throughput. <P> SIP ALG (Application Layer Gateway) is a mechanism found in most routers that rewrites packets transmitted across the device. Certain protocols are processed by the application layer gateway (ALG) and rewritten to allow better flow through a firewall or when NAT (Network Address Translation) is employed. However, the following example should provide a good reference for the more common models and show you how to disable SIP ALG on your Netgear router. While connected to the LAN, open a browser and enter the router's IP address.

<P> They include: 1 Lithium is the main medication used for bipolar disorder and is usually the first drug prescribed. 2 Antiseizure medications used for bipolar disorder treatment include valproic acid (Depakene, generic), divalproex sodium (Depakote, generic), and lamotrigine (Lamictal, generic). The following are the treatment options for most patients with bipolar disorder, depending on the bipolar disorder phase or episode. Patients should understand that, even with aggressive therapy, either mania or depression recurs in about 75% of patients. Drugs Used in Bipolar Disorder <P> In the 12-year period leading up to 2007, almost 1 in 10 visits to primary care physicians (9.3%), resulted in the patient coming away with a prescription for an antidepressant, the study found. But in only 44% of such cases did the doctor make a formal diagnosis of major depression or anxiety disorder. […]That trend escalated between 1996 and 2007, as both primary care physicians and specialists stepped up their prescribing of antidepressants. <P> A number of medications are used to treat bipolar disorder. The types and doses of medications prescribed are based on your particular symptoms. Medications may include: 1 Mood stabilizers. 1 Children and teens with bipolar disorder are often prescribed the same types of medications as those used in adults. 2 There's less research on the safety and effectiveness of bipolar medications in children than in adults, so treatment decisions are often based on adult research. 3 Psychotherapy. <P> Examples of well-studied antidepressants in bipolar depression include Prozac (fluoxetine), Wellbutrin (bupropion), and Zoloft (sertraline). In about 10% to 20% of people with bipolar disorder, antidepressants may cause shifts from depression into a manic or hypomanic episode. Because of this risk, your health care provider should monitor you closely if you take an antidepressant. However, in bipolar disorder, a primary mood stabilizer is recommended. According to the 2002 APA guidelines, the first-line treatment for acute depression in bipolar patients is lithium or Lamictal (lamotrigine). <P> Mood stabilizing drugs are the mainstay for patients with bipolar disorder. They are defined as drugs that are effective for acute episodes of mania and depression and that can be used for maintenance. The standard first-line mood stabilizers are lithium and valproate. The following are the treatment options for most patients with bipolar disorder, depending on the bipolar disorder phase or episode. Patients should understand that, even with aggressive therapy, either mania or depression recurs in about 75% of patients. Drugs Used in Bipolar Disorder <P> Antidepressants are commonly prescribed to treat depressive disorders. However, in bipolar disorder, a primary mood stabilizer is recommended. According to the 2002 APA guidelines, the first-line treatment for acute depression in bipolar patients is lithium or Lamictal (lamotrigine). <P> Last year, antidepressants were the second most commonly prescribed medications, right after drugs to lower cholesterol. About 254 million prescriptions were written for them, resulting in nearly $10 billion in costs. ii. Antidepressants are approved for the treatment of certain mood and anxiety disorders. <P> Antidepressants have long enjoyed a reputation as being a quick and “easy” treatment for all types of depression — from a mild feeling of being a little down, all the way up to severe, life-debilitating depression. But like all medications, they have side effects and instances where they should not be prescribed. But in only 44% of such cases did the doctor make a formal diagnosis of major depression or anxiety disorder. […]That trend escalated between 1996 and 2007, as both primary care physicians and specialists stepped up their prescribing of antidepressants. <P> CNS depressants are commonly used to treat anxiety and sleep disorders and are sometimes prescribed as adjunctive therapy with bipolar disorder. Commonly used benzodiazepines include Klonopin (clonazepam), Ativan (lorazepam), Xanax (alprazolam), and Valium (diazepam). However, in bipolar disorder, a primary mood stabilizer is recommended. According to the 2002 APA guidelines, the first-line treatment for acute depression in bipolar patients is lithium or Lamictal (lamotrigine).

how many minutes per pound to cook a tri tip roast
|
<P> 4 Cover the grill and cook until the temperature of the interior of the tri-tip reaches 120°F for a rare roast, 130°F for medium-rare and 140°F for medium. At this point the meat will take anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes to cook, depending on how hot your grill is, how well done you want it, and the size of the cut. Tri-tip roasts range from 2 1/2 pounds to 4 pounds. Figure on 1/2 pound of meat (before cooking) per person. A Santa Maria rub has salt, pepper, and either garlic salt or garlic powder. That's the base of the rub, anything beyond that is optional <P> 3) Light the grill and bring to medium heat (between 350 – 375 degrees). Preheat for 7-8 minutes. This is the ideal heat to cook the tri tip fully in 35-40 minutes, depending on the size of the roast. 4) Place the meat fat side up in between the burners. <P> Step 6. Cook for 12 to 25 minutes per pound of tri-tip, depending on how well-done you want the roast. When the internal temperature reaches 125 degrees, the roast is rare. A temperature between 130 to 135 degrees is medium rare, with a 145-degree internal temperature denoting a well-done roast. Step 5. Put the roast in the center of the oven for 18 to 30 minutes per pound of roast. For a rare roast, internal temperature should be 125 degrees, medium ranges from 130 to 130 degrees, and well-done registers 145 degrees. <P> 3. Oven-roasting the tri-tip roast Place roast in the oven and roast, uncovered, for 30 to 35 minutes or until the thermometer registers 135 degrees F. Remove from the oven and cover with foil. Let the meat stand for 15 minutes, which will bring the temperature up to 145 degrees F (medium rare) after standing. A boneless tri-tip roast weighs around 1-1/2 to 2 pounds and is around 2 inches thick. It can also be cut into steaks or cubed for kabobs. Tri-tip meat should be nicely marbled even though it is considered a lean, tender cut. It is especially prized for its rich, beefy flavor. <P> Other names for the tri-tip are bottom sirloin roast and triangle roast.

thyroid where is it in the body
|
<P> The thyroid gland controls how quickly the body uses energy, makes proteins, and controls the body's sensitivity to other hormones. It participates in these processes by producing thyroid hormones, the principal ones being thyroxine (T 4) and triiodothyronine (T 3), which is more active. These hormones regulate the growth and rate of function of many other systems in the body. T 3 and T 4 are synthesized from iodine and tyrosine. <P> Hyperthyroidism occurs when the gland produces excessive amounts of thyroid hormones, the most common cause being Graves' disease —an autoimmune disorder. In contrast, hypothyroidism is a state of insufficient thyroid hormone production. Worldwide, the most common cause is iodine deficiency. It participates in these processes by producing thyroid hormones, the principal ones being thyroxine (T 4) and triiodothyronine (T 3), which is more active. These hormones regulate the growth and rate of function of many other systems in the body. T 3 and T 4 are synthesized from iodine and tyrosine. <P> Having thyroid hormone levels that are too high (overactive thyroid gland). Sometimes the thyroid gland makes too much thyroid hormone, which is called hyperthyroidism. Think of your body as a car and your thyroid as the engine. An overactive thyroid makes your body idle too fast. <P> The thyroid gland covers the windpipe from three sides. Two hormones of the thyroid gland, T3 (thyroxine) and T4 (triiodothyronine), help the body to produce and regulate the hormones adrenaline (also called epinephrine) and dopamine. Hormones are chemical substances that help control certain cells and organs. <P> 1 Hypothyroidism: Low production of thyroid hormone. 2 Thyroid damage caused by autoimmune disease is the most common cause of hypothyroidism. 3 Graves disease: An autoimmune condition in which the thyroid is overstimulated, causing hyperthyroidism. 1 Thyroid nodule: A small abnormal mass or lump in the thyroid gland. 2 Thyroid nodules are extremely common. 3 Few are cancerous. 4 They may secrete excess hormones, causing hyperthyroidism, or cause no problems. 5 Thyroid storm: A rare form of hyperthyroidism in which extremely high thyroid hormone levels cause severe illness. <P> Background. Thyroid hormone is responsible for the regulating the metabolic rate of every cell in the body Since every cell in the body depends on its metabolism to perform its function, when the thyroid system is malfunctioning it can affect every system of the body. <P> Every cell in the body depends upon thyroid hormones for regulation of their metabolism. The normal thyroid gland produces about 80% T4 and about 20% T3, however, T3 possesses about four times the hormone strength as T4. The function of the thyroid gland is to take iodine, found in many foods, and convert it into thyroid hormones: thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). Thyroid cells are the only cells in the body which can absorb iodine. These cells combine iodine and the amino acid tyrosine to make T3 and <P> The thyroid gland, or simply the thyroid /ˈθaɪrɔɪd/ , is one of the largest endocrine glands in the body, and consists of two connected lobes. It is found in the neck, below the laryngeal prominence (Adam's apple). It participates in these processes by producing thyroid hormones, the principal ones being thyroxine (T 4) and triiodothyronine (T 3), which is more active. These hormones regulate the growth and rate of function of many other systems in the body. T 3 and T 4 are synthesized from iodine and tyrosine. <P> Your thyroid is a small gland at the base of your neck that makes thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormone controls many activities in your body, including how fast you burn calories and how fast your heart beats. Diseases of the thyroid cause it to make either too much or too little of the hormone. Hypothyroidism is treated with medicine that gives your body the thyroid hormone it needs to work normally. The most common medicines are man-made forms of the hormone that your thyroid makes. You will likely need to take thyroid hormone pills for the rest of your life.

what is maple syrup used for
|
<P> Fourteen of these are indigenous to the United States. In Minnesota, the four species used for producing maple syrup are: sugar maple (hard maple) Acer saccharum; red maple (soft maple) Acer rubrum; silver maple (soft or cutleaf maple) Acer saccharinum; and boxelder (Manitoba maple) Acer negundo. Most maple syrup is made from sugar maple sap. <P> Maple syrup can be used in the place of sugar for just about any recipe, for it is just a matter of learning the substitution ratio. To replace white sugar with maple syrup in general cooking, it is ideal to use ¾ cup of maple syrup for every one cup of sugar. When it comes to baking, that same amount is used but also be sure to reduce the amount of overall liquid in the recipe by about three tablespoons for each cup of maple syrup substituted. <P> Three species of maple trees are predominantly used to produce maple syrup: the sugar maple (Acer saccharum) , the black maple (A. nigrum) , and the red maple (A. rubrum) , because of the high sugar content (roughly two to five percent) in the sap of these species. <P> Maple syrup is a syrup usually made from the xylem sap of sugar maple, red maple, or black maple trees, although it can also be made from other maple species. In cold climates, these trees store starch in their trunks and roots before the winter; the starch is then converted to sugar that rises in the sap in the spring. <P> To apply maple syrup as a white or brown sugar alternative, use a one-for-one substitution and reduce the quantity of liquid ingredients in the recipe (water, milk, juice) by about one-quarter of a cup. <P> Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is caused by a gene defect. Persons with this condition cannot break down the amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine. This leads to a buildup of these chemicals in the blood.

what is thrombus aspiration
|
<P> Thrombus aspiration is applicable in a large majority of patients with myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation, and it results in better reperfusion and clinical outcomes than conventional PCI, irrespective of clinical and angiographic characteristics at baseline. A total of 1071 patients were randomly assigned to the thrombus-aspiration group or the conventional-PCI group before undergoing coronary angiography. Aspiration was considered to be successful if there was histopathological evidence of atherothrombotic material. <P> Thrombus aspiration during primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Svilaas T(1), Vlaar PJ, van der Horst IC, Diercks GF, de Smet BJ, van den Heuvel AF, Anthonio RL, Jessurun GA, Tan ES, Suurmeijer AJ, Zijlstra F. Author information: <P> Manual thrombus aspiration or rheolytic thrombectomy results in only incomplete removal of thrombus in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Rheolytic thrombectomy as compared with manual aspiration was more effective in thrombus removal and in achieving myocardial reperfusion. Large residual thrombus was more frequently revealed in the manual aspiration thrombectomy arm (patients with number of quadrants above the median value 60% in the manual aspiration thrombectomy arm and 37% in the RT arm, P =0.039). All markers of reperfusion were better in the RT arm. <P> Along with the clinical benefits of thrombus aspiration, retrieval of atherothrombotic material provides us with new possibilities to study the pathophysiology of thrombus formation, and thrombus characteristics may become of value in predicting outcome. Thrombus aspiration now enables the histopathological analysis of platelets, erythrocytes, inflammatory cells, and plaque components in living patients. Characterization of these components may contribute to the current understanding of the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. <P> Not to be confused with Embolism. A thrombus, or colloquially a blood clot, is the final product of the blood coagulation step in hemostasis. There are two components to a thrombus: aggregated platelets that form a platelet plug, and a mesh of cross-linked fibrin protein. <P> The clinical effect of routine intracoronary thrombus aspiration before primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is uncertain. We aimed to evaluate whether thrombus aspiration reduces mortality. Coronary-artery thrombus aspiration, a simple, rapidly performed, and relatively inexpensive adjunct to PCI, may improve blood flow and resolution of ST-segment elevation, 5-9 although this is not a universal finding. <P> We performed a randomized trial assessing whether manual aspiration was superior to conventional treatment during primary PCI. A total of 1071 patients were randomly assigned to the thrombus-aspiration group or the conventional-PCI group before undergoing coronary angiography. Aspiration was considered to be successful if there was histopathological evidence of atherothrombotic material. <P> In conclusion, thrombus aspiration is emerging as an integral component of the interventional approach of acute myocardial infarction, enabling new insights into thrombus composition. It holds great therapeutic as well as diagnostic promise and leads us into a new era of mechanistic and pathophysiological studies. Thrombus aspiration now enables the histopathological analysis of platelets, erythrocytes, inflammatory cells, and plaque components in living patients. Characterization of these components may contribute to the current understanding of the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. <P> In fact, prior research supported this line of thinking. TAPAS (Thrombus Aspiration during Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Acute Myocardial Infarction Study), published in NEJM in 2008, demonstrated benefits in STEMI patients who were randomized to thrombus aspiration prior to stenting.

what is braising
|
<P> 1 Remove the pan from the oven. 2 To make a sauce or gravy from the braising liquid, first make a roux, then whisk some of the braising liquid (strain it first) into the roux until it thickens. 3 Cook on low heat for a few minutes, then season. 4 Here's more about how to make gravy. 1 Bring the braising liquid back to a simmer, then cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid and transfer it to the 300°F oven. 2 Braise for 1 to 5 hours, depending on the size of the meat. 3 Figure about an hour per pound. 4 <P> Adorable animal families that will make you aww. Braising is a cooking term. It means to brown food in very hot fat quickly and then simmer it in liquid at a low temperature for hours. It is traditionally used to tenderize tough cuts of meat or poultry, but vegetables and fish can be braised as well. <P> Braising is a process of slow cooking tougher cuts of meat in liquid in order to add flavor and to moisten and tenderize the meat. This technique is also known as pot-roasting. Beef that has been braised is always cooked until it is well done because moist heat cooking methods permeate the meat with hot liquid and high temperatures, making the meat tender and flavorful. However, braised dishes like pot roast can be overcooked in spite of the moist heat cooking method. <P> This method of cooking is great for tough cuts of meat but also works well with chicken, fish and/or vegetables. You can braise in a crock pot, pressure cooker, large saute pan or the most often used cooking vessel for braises, a Dutch oven. Some popular dishes you may have heard of that use a braising technique are osso buco, pot roast, braised veal & lamb shanks and braised cabbage. Whether you choose to use the oven or the top of the stove, you will be pleased with the results. Braising is often used as a way to cook less expensive, tough cuts of meat. The end result is tender and flavorful. Other than great taste and economy, there are other reasons to cook this way. <P> Braising is a cooking technique in which the main ingredient is seared, or browned in fat, and then simmered in liquid on low heat in a covered pot. The best equipment to use would be a crock pot, pressure cooker or Dutch oven. Whether you choose to use the oven or the top of the stove, you will be pleased with the results. Braising is often used as a way to cook less expensive, tough cuts of meat. The end result is tender and flavorful. Other than great taste and economy, there are other reasons to cook this way. <P> Braising. Technically, braising is simmering food in a small amount of liquid in a covered or uncovered pan or casserole. In some ways it's similar to stewing, except that with braising there's generally only enough water, wine or stock to add a little moisture while stewing immerses the ingredients in liquid. Both achieve the same purpose of tenderizing ingredients while adding flavor. While braising works well with tough cuts of meat, you can use the techniques for quick cooking as well. Braising can be a great choice for delicate fish or vegetables, but the cooking time is much shorter. This takes less liquid: about half as much as for beef and longer cooking ingredients. <P> Braising (from the French word, “braiser”) is a combination-cooking method that uses both moist and dry heats: typically, the food is first seared at a high temperature, then finished in a covered pot at a lower temperature while sitting in some (variable) amount of liquid (which may also add flavor). A successful braise intermingles the flavors of the foods being cooked, with those of the cooking liquid. This cooking method dissolves the meat's collagen into gelatin, which can greatly enrich and thicken the liquid. <P> A classic braise is done with a relatively whole cut of meat, and the braising liquid will cover two-thirds of the food in the pan. Then, the dish is covered and cooked at a very low simmer, until the meat becomes so tender that it can be cut with just the gentlest of pressure from a fork (versus a knife). A successful braise intermingles the flavors of the foods being cooked, with those of the cooking liquid. This cooking method dissolves the meat's collagen into gelatin, which can greatly enrich and thicken the liquid. <P> You know that we love braising, here at The Kitchn. It's one of our favorite ways to cook meat because it's easy, hands-off, and foolproof. It also works well on cheaper cuts of meat. We've noticed that we tend to braise more pork and lamb than beef, but we miss the great beef braises from our childhood. Braising cooks large cuts of beef in enough liquid to partially cover the meat as shown in Classic Beef Pot Roast with Root Vegetables. Stewing uses small, uniform pieces of beef pot roast or beef for stew meat that are totally immersed in liquid. <P> Chilly weather is made for braising. Cooking tougher cuts of meat in a braise transforms them into tender, fall-off-the-bone dinner masterpieces that satisfy our desire to hunker down and cozy up. As an added bonus, the low-and-slow cooking time is largely hands-off, making your kitchen warm and great-smelling.

how long does a white pine live
|
<P> How big are white pine? White pine are the largest conifer east of the Mississippi and the second largest pine in North America. Mature White Pine are usually about 100 ft tall and 3ft in diameter. Historically white pine of up to 250 ft tall and 10 ft in diameter were found. The largest white pine in Minnesota is in Itasca State Park, it is 14 1/2 ft around and 113 feet tall. People thought that the forests white pines, 200 feet tall and stretching for miles, would last forever. Between 1776 and 1940 2.4 quadrillion board feet of white pine was logged. All of this wood stacked in a city block would stack 400 miles high! By the 1950’s all of the vast forests of white pines had been cut down. <P> White pine are the largest conifer east of the Mississippi and the second largest pine in North America. Mature White Pine are usually about 100 ft tall and 3ft in diameter. Historically white pine of up to 250 ft tall and 10 ft in diameter were found. The largest white pine in Minnesota is in Itasca State Park, it is 14 1/2 ft around and 113 feet tall. <P> Pine trees reach a range of mature sizes that depends on the species. The dwarf mugo pine (Pinus mugo pumilio) grows to a mature size of 4 feet tall, while slash pines (Pinus elliottii) reach 100 feet. White pines reach up to 150 feet tall, growing only 8 to 12 inches a year, when planted in favorable environments. As a group, pine trees are long-lived conifers. Most varieties live over a century when growing in favorable conditions. Bristlecone pine trees are known to live at least 4,800 year <P> Growth and Yield-White pine is a long-lived tree commonly reaching 200 years if undisturbed; maximum age may exceed 450 years. It has a remarkable rate of growth compared to other pine and hardwood species within its range (20). Height growth of both planted and natural white pine is slow during the first 2 to 3 years. Afterwards, growth accelerates rapidly, peaking at an average annual rate of 1 m (3 ft) between 10 and 15 years on site index 80 (base 50 years) (6). <P> California’s storied redwood trees are probably best-known as the tallest trees in the world, towering 350 to 400 feet tall. The conifers are a fast-growing tree, growing 3 to 5 feet per year in the first five years and reaching 90 feet tall by 25 years. The average life span of a redwood tree is more than 600 years. Spruce trees are native to the western United States and Canada. The Colorado blue spruce, also called the silver spruce, was first discovered on Pikes Peak in 1862. Blue spruce can live 800 years. White spruce has a life expectancy of 200 or more years, with some 300-year-old specimens documented in Manitoba, Canada. <P> California's redwoods are both tall and long-lived, with an average life span of 600 years. Conifers are trees and shrubs such as pine and spruce trees that generally produce seeds in cones instead of berries or flowers. The evergreens especially are prized in landscapes for their year-round color. Spruce trees are native to the western United States and Canada. The Colorado blue spruce, also called the silver spruce, was first discovered on Pikes Peak in 1862. Blue spruce can live 800 years. White spruce has a life expectancy of 200 or more years, with some 300-year-old specimens documented in Manitoba, Canada. <P> The seeds are 4–5 mm (0.16–0.20 in) long, with a slender 15–20 mm (0.59–0.79 in) wing, and are wind-dispersed. Cone production peaks every 3 to 5 years. While eastern white pine is self-fertile, seeds produced this way tend to result in weak, stunted, malformed seedlings. Mature trees can easily be 200 to 250 years old. Pinus strobus grows approximately 1 m (3.3 ft) per year between the ages of 15 and 45 years, with slower height increments before and after that age range. The current tallest eastern white pines reach between 50–57.55 m (164.0–188.8 ft), as determined by the NTS—Native Tree Society. <P> White Pine -----Pinus strobus The White Pine is a fast growing (2-3 ft per year or more) evergreen that has needles of from 3-6 inches long and are arranged in bundles of five on the stem. In Sep-Oct this pine sheds all of its needles that grew out the previous year.

what is the fda definition of over-the-counter medical devices
|
<P> Medical devices sold over-the-counter generally are not approved by the FDA. This is because most over-the-counter medical devices are deemed “low-risk,” or things that probably won’t cause life-threatening harm to a patient if used incorrectly. The FDA uses its own statisticians, biologists, chemists, physicians, and other experts to analyze the data from the manufacturer’s clinical trials and other research. Based on this analysis, the agency decides whether or not to approve a drug or medical device for a particular use. <P> As the classification level increases, the risk to the patient and FDA regulatory control increase. Accessories to medical devices, devices used with a medical device to support use of the device, are considered the same classification as the medical device. The FDA classification of medical devices is based upon classifications for devices currently legally marketed in the United States. The FDA determines the device classification by the device intended use and risk the device presents to the patient. There are 3 FDA regulatory classifications of medical devices: Class I, Class II and Class III. The classifications are assigned by the risk the medical device presents to the patient and the level of regulatory control the FDA determines is needed to legally market the device. <P> The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a new final guidance document intended to clarify the process by which manufacturers of custom medical devices can comply with federal regulations. It would not necessarily be a custom medical device, FDA said. The component is only a custom device if it is designed to treat a unique pathology or physiological condition that no other device is domestically available to treat and meets all the other requirements of section 520(b), FDA explained. <P> Medical maggots represent the first living organism allowed by the Food and Drug Administration for production and marketing as a prescription medical device. In June 2004, the FDA cleared Hirudo medicinalis (medicinal leeches) as the second living organism to be used as a medical devices. New drugs receive extensive scrutiny before FDA approval in a process called a New Drug Application (NDA). New drugs are available only by prescription by default. A change to over-the-counter (OTC) status is a separate process, and the drug must be approved through an NDA first. <P> FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) regulates products used with animals. If your product is not a medical device but regulated by another Center in the FDA, each component of the FDA has an office to assist with questions about the products they regulate. A device is: 1 an instrument, apparatus, implement, machine, contrivance, implant, in vitro reagent, or other similar or related article, including a component part, or accessory which is: 2 recognized in the official National Formulary, or the United States Pharmacopoeia, or any supplement to them, <P> For approval of a generic drug, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires scientific evidence that the generic drug is interchangeable with or therapeutically equivalent to the originally approved drug. This is called an ANDA (Abbreviated New Drug Application). New drugs receive extensive scrutiny before FDA approval in a process called a New Drug Application (NDA). New drugs are available only by prescription by default. A change to over-the-counter (OTC) status is a separate process, and the drug must be approved through an NDA first. <P> The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or USFDA) is a federal agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, one of the United States federal executive departments.

types of benzene reactions equation
|
<P> Benzene is the simplest aromatic compound with C6H6 molecular formula and contains three pi bonds arranged in alternate manner in hexagonal ring. The carbon-carbon bond length in benzene is intermediate to C-C single bond (154 pm) and C = C double bond (134 pm) that is 139 pm due to resonance in molecule. Since six pi electrons are delocalized over whole ring, therefore the cyclically conjugated double bonds represents by a circle and the carbon-carbon bond length becomes equal. This structure of benzene is called as resonance hybrid of benzene and generally used to represents the benzenemolecule. <P> Benzene reacts with chlorine or bromine in an electrophilic substitution reaction, but only in the presence of a catalyst. The catalyst is either aluminium chloride (or aluminium bromide if you are reacting benzene with bromine) or iron. <P> The chemical reactivity of benzene contrasts with that of the alkenes in that substitution reactions occur in preference to addition reactions, as illustrated in the following diagram (some comparable reactions of cyclohexene are shown in the green box). 1. A two-step mechanism has been proposed for these electrophilic substitution reactions. In the first, slow or rate-determining, step the electrophile forms a sigma-bond to the benzene ring, generating a positively charged benzenonium intermediate. <P> The most common reactions of benzene involve substitution of a proton by other groups. Electrophilic aromatic substitution is a general method of derivatizing benzene. Benzene is sufficiently nucleophilic that it undergoes substitution by acylium ions and alkyl carbocations to give substituted derivatives. Via hydrogenation, benzene and its derivatives convert to cyclohexane and derivatives. This reaction is achieved by the use of high pressures of hydrogen at high temperatures in the presence of a finely divided nickel, which serves as a catalyst. In the absence of the catalyst, benzene is impervious to hydrogen. <P> ASSORTED REACTIONS OF BENZENE AND METHYLBENZENE This page gives details of some reactions of benzene and methylbenzene (toluene) not covered elsewhere in this section. It deals with the combustion, hydrogenation and sulphonation of benzene and methylbenzene (toluene), and with the oxidation of side chains attached to benzene rings. Remember that benzene, methylbenzene and similar hydrocarbons based on benzene rings are collectively known as arenes. Combustion. <P> Benzene is an important organic chemical compound with the chemical formula C 6 H 6. Its molecule is composed of 6 carbon atoms joined in a ring, with 1 hydrogen atom attached to each carbon atom. Via hydrogenation, benzene and its derivatives convert to cyclohexane and derivatives. This reaction is achieved by the use of high pressures of hydrogen at high temperatures in the presence of a finely divided nickel, which serves as a catalyst. In the absence of the catalyst, benzene is impervious to hydrogen. <P> Benzene and its derivatives are mainly used in synthetic organic chemistry. The main source of polynuclear aromatic compounds is coal tar. For example, naphthalene is the largest single constituent (6 - 10%) of coal tar. Since six pi electrons are delocalized over whole ring, therefore the cyclically conjugated double bonds represents by a circle and the carbon-carbon bond length becomes equal. This structure of benzene is called as resonance hybrid of benzene and generally used to represents the benzenemolecule. <P> 1. Electrophilic substitution reaction. Table: Various electrophilic substitution reactions of Benzene. 1 Reaction of AlCl 3 with chlorine molecule (Cl 2) to form Chlorinium ion (Cl +) which acts as electrophile and attack on benzene ring. Since six pi electrons are delocalized over whole ring, therefore the cyclically conjugated double bonds represents by a circle and the carbon-carbon bond length becomes equal. This structure of benzene is called as resonance hybrid of benzene and generally used to represents the benzenemolecule. <P> Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Simple alkenes tend to undergo addition reactions: Br Br 2 HBrBr BrC 3 H 6 Br 2 C 3 H 6 C 3 H 7 Br The elements of the reagent (HBr or Br 2) are simply added to the starting material. This is called, unsurprisingly, and addition reaction. Aromatic compounds do not react in this manner. <P> Benzene is a natural constituent of crude oil, and is one of the most elementary petrochemicals. Benzene is an aromatic hydrocarbon and the second [ n ]- annulene ([6]-annulene), a cyclic hydrocarbon with a continuous pi bond. Via hydrogenation, benzene and its derivatives convert to cyclohexane and derivatives. This reaction is achieved by the use of high pressures of hydrogen at high temperatures in the presence of a finely divided nickel, which serves as a catalyst. In the absence of the catalyst, benzene is impervious to hydrogen.

what is refined sunflower oil
|
<P> Sunflower oil is high in the essential vitamin E and low in saturated fat. The two most common types of sunflower oil are linoleic and high oleic. Linoleic sunflower oil is a common cooking oil that has high levels of polyunsaturated fat. It is also known for having a clean taste and low levels of trans fat. <P> There are so many different kinds of oils available to us: Canola Oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Rapeseed Oil, Avocado Oil, Sunflower Oil, Sesame Oil, Peanut Oil, Coconut Oil, Corn Oil, Soy Bean Oil and more. It can be a bit daunting if you are used to using the same kind for everything. <P> The generic cooking term vegetable oil refers to a blend of a variety of oils often based on palm, corn, soybean or sunflower oils. Refined cooking oils are made by highly intensive mechanical and chemical processes to extract the oil from the seeds. <P> The expressed sunflower oil is amber in colour with a mild and pleasant taste. Refined oil is pale yellow in colour. Being extremely light with a high content of polyunsaturated fat, sunflower oil is often preferred over other oils like canola, safflower, corn and olive oils for cooking purposes. <P> Margarine and cooking fats are made of refined sunflower oil by hydrogenation. Refined sunflower oil is also used in manufacturing of canned food, as well as in soap boiling and paint and varnish industry. <P> Sunflower oil is the non-volatile oil compressed from sunflower (Helianthus annuus) seeds. Sunflower oil is commonly used in food as a frying oil, and in cosmetic formulations as an emollient. <P> Refined sunflower oil is perfectly clean oil, which preserves all the nutrients during the production process. This oil can be used in conditions of extremely high cooking temperatures. <P> Sunflower oil is a non-volatile oil extracted from the seeds of sunflowers. It is commonly used as a cooking oil as well as in cosmetic formulations due to its emollient properties. Its nutritious composition makes it one of the healthiest oils for consumption as well as application on the skin and the hair. <P> The fats from plant seeds are polyunsaturated, meaning they remain in a fluid state at room temperature. There are many different kinds of commercially refined vegetable based oils, including canola or rapeseed oil, soybean oil, canola oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, and peanut oil.

cesar chavez against illegal aliens
|
<P> By Bryan Fischer. This week has been Cesar Chavez week at Boise State University, as our local campus celebrates the legacy of one of the three men to have his birthday celebrated as an official holiday in California (the other two: Jesus Christ and Martin Luther King, Jr.). According to a 2006 article in The American Conservative by Steve Sailer, although Chavez's union, the United Farm Workers, did manage to raise wages significantly for stoop laborers from 1965 to 1981, those gains have largely disappeared for one reason: illegal immigration. <P> Chavez demanded that the federal government close the border, routinely reported suspected illegal immigrants to immigration officials, and put his brother in charge of Minutemen-like border patrols which on more than one occasion resulted in the beatings of intruders. According to a 2006 article in The American Conservative by Steve Sailer, although Chavez's union, the United Farm Workers, did manage to raise wages significantly for stoop laborers from 1965 to 1981, those gains have largely disappeared for one reason: illegal immigration. <P> Watch the full length Cesar Chavez segment below. While Cesar Chavez has become one of the most iconic Latino civil rights leaders in U.S. history, his stance on the issue of illegal immigration didn't always reflect the dominant attitude among today's Hispanics. As a union organizer, Chavez worried that that employers would recruit undocumented immigrants to break strikes. By the 1980s, however, Chavez had become a supporter of immigration reform and backed the 1986 bill signed by President Ronald Reagan that legalized the status of nearly 3 million people. <P> Yes, Virginia: Not only was Cesar Chavez against illegal immigration, not only did he speak out against the Mexican invasion before Congress, not only did United Farm Workers members monitor the United States-Mexico border a à la The, minutemen But chavez even sicced la migra on the undocumented from time to. time The curious case of Chavez and his evolving views on illegal immigration is best explained in University of California, San Diego professor David G. Gutierrez's 1995 book, Walls and Mirrors: Mexican Americans, Mexican Immigrants, and the Politics of Ethnicity. <P> Cesar Chavez Against Illegals. The UFW during Chavez'chávez s tenure was committed to restricting. Immigration Cesar césar Chavez Chávez and dolores Huerta Fought the bracero program that existed from. 1942 to 1964 their opposition stemmed from their belief that THE program undermined us workers and exploited. the migrant workers In 1979 testimony to Congress, Chavez complained, ... when the farm workers strike and their strike is successful, the employers go to Mexico and have unlimited, unrestricted use of illegal alien strikebreakers to break the strike. <P> In 1969, Chavez actually led a march to the Mexican border to protest illegal immigration, accompanied by Sen. Walter Mondale and Ralph Abernathy, whom alert readers will recognize as Martin Luther King's successor as head of the Southern Leadership Conference. According to a 2006 article in The American Conservative by Steve Sailer, although Chavez's union, the United Farm Workers, did manage to raise wages significantly for stoop laborers from 1965 to 1981, those gains have largely disappeared for one reason: illegal immigration. <P> That’s likely because the National Farm Workers Association cofounder was strongly against illegal immigration. “Cesar Chavez” actress America Ferrera and director Diego Luna during the 64th Berlinale International Film Festival, Feb. 12, 2014 in Berlin. On Nov. 5, 2009, then-Rep. Brian Bilbray (R-Calif.) noted Chavez’s activism against illegal border crossings on the House floor. “Cesar Chavez was probably a good, well, 20 years ahead of his time,” Bilbray said. “In fact, Cesar Chavez in 1969 led the first march on the Mexican border to protest illegal immigration. <P> Conservative scholar and talk radio host Mark Levin reminded Americans, including left-wing liberals and even some Republicans, that the late labor leader Cesar Chavez did not think it was compassionate to enable and encourage illegal immigration. Chavez, who was also against ethnic organizations like La Raza, would tell illegal immigrants to get out of the country, especially because they lowered the wages of American workers. <P> If so, then the movie isn't really about Cesar Chavez because he did not support illegal aliens flooding into the U.S.A. and causing his farm workers to compete with them for low pay. In fact, Chavez would find illegal aliens and turn them in to immigration. The pro-amnesty for illegal alien people think they can use the movie about Cesar Chavez to spark more support for amnesty for the 12 million illegal aliens in
