how long does it take rice to cook in a rice cooker
|
<P> White rice usually takes about 15 to 20 minutes to cook. Check the rice about 4 minutes before the timer is due to go off. When you take the cover off, the top of the rice may look like it is totally cooked. <P> A: Generally white rice takes around 10 minutes per uncooked cup of rice to cook in both cool touch and Pot Style rice Cookers. Brown rice will take around 20 minutes per uncooked cup of rice to cook in Pot Style Rice Cookers and 2 hours to cook in Cool Touch Rice Cookers due to the extra bran layers on the grain. Please note that these measurements refer to the measuring cup provided by AROMA Housewares Company that came with your unit. <P> Measure the rice with a cup and put it into your cooking pot. Some rice cookers have a removable bowl or pot, while others must have the rice placed directly in the cooker. Most of the time, rice cookers will come with a measuring cup or scoop that can fit 3/4 cup (180 mL). <P> Cooking Time. One cup of regular long, medium, or short grain rice typically takes 15 minutes to cook in a rice cooker, parboiled rice tends to take 20 minutes for 1 cup, and 1 cup of whole grain rice can take between 40 and 45 minutes. <P> Add the rice to the slow cooker that is cooking on high, when there is 2 hours left in the cooking time. If your slow cooker is set on low, add when there is 2 hours 45 minute <P> My video “Cooking White Rice” uses the 1-2-3 ratio for perfect white rice. (1 cup of rice, 2 cups of water, will make 3 cups of rice.). This formula does not work for brown rice. Check the back of the package of rice to determine how much water is needed for your particular brand of rice. <P> 1 Rice works on a 2 to 1 ratio in the slow cooker, 2 cups water to 1 cup rice, just as it does when cooking on the stove top or baking. 2 So if there is about 2 cups of liquid already in the slow cooker, then just add the rice. 3 If there only seems to be 1 cup, then add in an additional cup of hot water or broth. <P> Also, You can use your slow cooker as a rice cooker. Simply spray the sides and bottom with a non-stick cooking spray. Add the amount of water plus rice that you’d like to cook using the 2 to 1 ratio (explained above). If you are using brown rice, add an additional 1/2 cup, or use a 2 1/2 cup water to 1 cup rice ratio.

what are the tropics
|
<P> tropics. also called tropical zone or torrid zone, all the land and water of the earth situated between the Tropic of Cancer Tropic of Cancer,parallel of latitude at 23°30' north of the equator; it is the northern boundary of the tropics. <P> About. HEARTWATCH. The name is new but the band-fka The Tropics-is no stranger to hoards of San Francisco's young and beautiful. In late 2014 the group released their inaugural EP, Wind House, to national acclaim, solidifying their status as the Bay Area's favorite new band. <P> Tropical is sometimes used in a general sense for a tropical climate to mean warm to hot and moist year-round, often with the sense of lush vegetation. <P> Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. Located at 23.5 degrees North and 23.5 degrees South of the Equator, this area of Planet Earth (between those two lines) is known as the Tropics, and is colored with a lighter blue color on the globe. <P> The tropics include all the areas on the Earth where the Sun reaches a subsolar point, a point directly overhead at least once during the solar year. The tropics are distinguished from the other climatic and biomatic regions of Earth, the middle latitudes and the polar regions on either side of the equatorial zone. <P> The reason for the location of the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn at 23.5° north and south respectively is due to the axial tilt of the Earth. The Earth is titled 23.5 degrees from the plane of the Earth's revolution around the sun each year. The area bounded by the Tropic of Cancer on the north and Tropic of Capricorn on the south is known as the tropics.. This area does not experience seasons because the sun is always high in the sky.

you best way to clean paint brushes
|
<P> Report Abuse. I wipe the oil paint off my brushes, then I use shampoo and water to clean off most of the paint. For any stubborn bits remaining I use a brush cleaner, I use a brush cleaner on all of my brushes as it restores the bristles and nourishes them. I rarely use synthetic brushes. Rinse and dry with the bristles pointing up. When you use oil paints first use turpentine to remove the majority of the paint. It's not the most glamorous part of painting but it has to be done right away before the paint starts to set in and ruins your brushes. <P> 1 Remove as much paint as your can from your paint brush by brushing it along an old rag or paper towel. 2 You want as little paint as possible still on your brush for a faster cleaning in the solvent. 3 Pour a little solvent into your vessel. 4 I prefer to use an old tupperware or glass jar. 1 Disposable Gloves. 2 Remove as much paint as your can from your paint brush by brushing it along an old rag or paper towel. 3 You want as little paint as possible still on your brush for a faster cleaning in the solvent. 4 Pour a little solvent into your vessel. 5 <P> 2. Rinse the brush in the appropriate solvent. It's okay to use the dirty solvent from your painting session. Pour it into a bowl or bucket and gently run your brush back and forth through the solvent to release the paint. You can wipe it along the sides and bottom of the container as well. 1 If you use acrylic (latex), acetone (nail paint remover) or denatured alcohol can be used to save a dried up brush. 2 Simply soak it for a minute or two in acetone, then wash off with soap. 3 Repeat till the bristles are soft and clean. 4 Use tweezers to remove those frizzy hairs on the side. <P> Don't clean the brush with dish soap; it will gum up the ferrule and bristles. And there's no need to rinse the tool in fresh water. The more often you clean it with the softener solution, the better it gets. Fabric softener coats the handle, ferrule, and bristles, allowing paint to flow effortlessly off the tool. 4. To dry your paintbrush quickly, use a paintbrush spinner to fling water from the brush. Spin the brush in a wet waste bucket. To make one, start with an empty 5-gallon plastic bucket with lid. Cut an 8-inch hole in the center of the lid. Place a plastic trash bag in the bucket and snap on the lid. <P> Clean paint brushes immediately after use. Do not soak brushes in solvent or water, as this can damage the bristles. Consider using one set of synthetic painting tools for oil-based products and another set for water-based products. It is much easier to clean the paint brushes if you don't switch back and forth between the two types of bases. Do not use a wire brush on a paint brush. While it will help remove the dried paint from the tips of the bristle, it also knocks off the flag (splits) at the end of the bristles. Using a paint brush comb to clean the paint from the inside of the brush will increase the life of the brush. <P> The best way to determine if there is any residual paint in the brush is to suspend it in a clear container after you think it is clean. Use a string or thin wire through the hole at the end of the brush handle to suspend just the bristles in clean water. Let it sit in the water for about four hours. <P> You can clean water-based paint from brushes and paint pads in 10 seconds: 1. Remove excess paint from the brush or pad by scraping it with the edge of a 5-in-1 tool or the teeth of a brush-cleaning tool. 2. 4. To dry your paintbrush quickly, use a paintbrush spinner to fling water from the brush. Spin the brush in a wet waste bucket. To make one, start with an empty 5-gallon plastic bucket with lid. Cut an 8-inch hole in the center of the lid. Place a plastic trash bag in the bucket and snap on the lid. <P> Two Methods: Mineral Turpentine Laundry Detergent. Cleaning paint brushes which have been used for oil paints or varnish can be a chore and result in dried paint clogging the brush if not done thoroughly. You can also use a lot of turps in the process! An easy and economical way to clean them is as follows. Ad. <P> After cleaning, remove excess solvent or water by spinning the paint brush or using a mechanical paint brush spinner. Purdy ® strongly recommends the use of a paint brush comb as one of the best ways to clean a paint brush. Do not use a wire brush on a paint brush. While it will help remove the dried paint from the tips of the bristle, it also knocks off the flag (splits) at the end of the bristles. Using a paint brush comb to clean the paint from the inside of the brush will increase the life of the brush. <P> Best Answer: I just started using Ammonia + Water (warm even better) and it works great removing old or hard to clean paint from brushes and other art materials. Ammonia is stronger than soap so with less you do more; just use a cap of ammonia, add some water, let the brush soak overnight and then rinse it. Rinse and dry with the bristles pointing up. When you use oil paints first use turpentine to remove the majority of the paint. It's not the most glamorous part of painting but it has to be done right away before the paint starts to set in and ruins your brushes.

what is a lab grown diamond
|
<P> What are the differences between lab-grown and mined diamonds? One is created in weeks in a precisely controlled laboratory environment and the other grows beneath the earth for centuries. Otherwise, lab-grown diamonds and mined diamonds are chemically, physically and optically identical. HPHT is sometimes used to improve the color of mined or lab-grown diamonds. Our proprietary CVD process allows us to produce stunning diamonds in color and size combinations that are seldom found in mines, such as fancy color pink diamonds that are prized for fine jewelry. SEE OUR SPECIAL GROWTH CHAMBER. <P> Synthetic diamond is also widely known as HPHT diamond or CVD diamond after the two common production methods (referring to the high-pressure high-temperature and chemical vapor deposition crystal formation methods, respectively). For economic reasons, the growth of most synthetic diamonds is terminated when they reach a mass of 1 carat (200 mg) to 1.5 carats (300 mg). In the 1950s, research started in the Soviet Union and the US on the growth of diamond by pyrolysis of hydrocarbon gases at the relatively low temperature of 800 °C. <P> Visually beautiful diamonds aren't exclusively sourced from the earth. Introducing the Lab-Grown E3 diamond. Every E3 diamond is grown in a laboratory and possesses the same exceptional color, clarity, beauty and brilliance of a quality mined diamond found in nature. With this evolutionary process, this eco-friendly diamond is environmentally responsible and guaranteed conflict free. Each E3 diamond is laser-inscribed with an IGI certificate number. Only the most exquisite lab-grown diamonds will earn the E3 name. <P> HPHT, used since the 1950s, puts a pure, solid carbon source under high pressure and high temperature. In the presence of a catalyst, the pressurized and heated carbon crystalizes into diamond. HPHT is sometimes used to improve the color of mined or lab-grown diamonds. Our proprietary CVD process allows us to produce stunning diamonds in color and size combinations that are seldom found in mines, such as fancy color pink diamonds that are prized for fine jewelry. SEE OUR SPECIAL GROWTH CHAMBER. <P> You won't be able to tell the difference between a lab-grown diamond and a mined diamond. If you go to the legitimate sources, you'll find that their gems are essentially the same as mined diamonds. The gems have the same physical and chemical properties as mined diamonds. Where to buy. Currently, the leader in the lab-grown diamond industry seems to be Gemesis. You can order diamond jewelry on its website, or you can also opt to order loose stones. To all ring shoppers, here's a basic guide to buying an engagement ring if you have no clue where to start. <P> cultured diamonds. Lab created diamonds, also known as cultured diamonds, are grown in highly controlled laboratory environments using advanced technological processes that duplicate the conditions under which diamonds naturally develop when they form in the mantle, beneath the Earth’s crust. <P> Mined Diamonds. Lab-grown diamonds are chemically, physically and optically identical to mined diamonds. Scio Diamond’s technology offers the flexibility to produce lab-grown diamonds in size, color and quality combinations that are rare in mined diamonds. Scio Diamond creates high quality, single-crystal, Type IIa diamonds for the jewelry market and industrial applications. The company employs a patent-protected chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process in a precisely controlled laboratory setting to produce diamonds. <P> Editor’s note: The following is a summary of a presentation given at the 2014 JCK Show in Las Vegas. The various means of distinguishing colorless and colored synthetic gem-quality diamonds from natural diamonds is well documented in research results published over the past 30 years. A few companies sell CVD-grown synthetic diamonds in small quantities for jewelry purposes. Most CVD crystals are brownish or grayish, but if a tiny amount of nitrogen or boron is introduced into the chamber, yellow, pink-orange, or blue crystals can be created. <P> A newer method of creating synthetic diamonds, called chemical vapor deposition or CVD, involves growth at high temperatures in a vacuum chamber. Hydrocarbon gases, such as methane, are introduced into the chamber and broken down by means of an energy source, such as microwave plasma, to release their carbon atoms. A few companies sell CVD-grown synthetic diamonds in small quantities for jewelry purposes. Most CVD crystals are brownish or grayish, but if a tiny amount of nitrogen or boron is introduced into the chamber, yellow, pink-orange, or blue crystals can be created. <P> Synthetic diamonds of various colors grown by the high-pressure high-temperature technique. Synthetic diamond (also known as cultured diamond or cultivated diamond) is diamond produced in an artificial process, as opposed to natural diamonds, which are created by geological processes. For economic reasons, the growth of most synthetic diamonds is terminated when they reach a mass of 1 carat (200 mg) to 1.5 carats (300 mg).

what is polyarteritis nodosa
|
<P> Polyarteritis Nodosa (PAN) is a very rare vasculitic disease which affects the medium sized vessels. It can affect any organ in the body but commonly the muscles, joints, intestines, nerves and skin are affected. It can be associated with Hepatitis B virus infection. <P> Polyarteritis nodosa is a serious disorder that causes chronic inflammation of the small and medium arteries of the body. Inflammation of the arteries leads to an inability of the arteries to adequately supply oxygenated blood to various tissues and results in many manifestations in different organs and body systems. Polyarteritis nodosa results in a wide variety of symptoms and complications that can affect many parts of the body. The most common sites of symptoms and complications include the eyes, nerves, skin, kidneys, heart, genitals, and gastrointestinal tract. <P> Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a type of vasculitis that mainly affects medium-sized arteries. Vasculitis includes a group of diseases where your immune system attacks the blood vessels and results in inflammation. <P> Polyarteritis Nodosa. Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a rare disease that results from blood vessel inflammation (vasculitis) causing injury to organ systems. The areas most commonly affected by PAN include the nerves, intestinal tract, heart, and joints. Vasculitis is a general term that refers to inflammation of the blood vessels. When inflamed, the blood vessel may become weakened and stretch in size, which can lead to aneurysms, or become so thin that they rupture resulting in bleeding into the tissue. <P> Additional Info. Polyarteritis nodosa is a rare, but potentially life threatening, inflammation of the blood vessels (vasculitis) that damages the walls of the body's small-and medium-sized arteries. <P> Polyarteritis nodosa is a type of inflammation of the blood vessels (vasculitis) that affects medium-and large-sized arteries. Depending on which blood vessels are involved and specifically the tissues they supply, injury can occur to internal organs, such as the kidneys or bowel. Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) facts. 1 Polyarteritis nodosa is an autoimmune disease that affects arteries. 2 Common areas affected include the muscles, joints, intestines (bowels), nerves, kidneys, and skin. <P> Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a condition that causes swollen arteries. It primarily affects small and medium-sized arteries, which can become inflamed or damaged. This is a serious disease of the blood vessels caused by an immune system malfunction. Ongoing treatment is crucial for survival, and there is a risk of serious complications for patients who don’t seek medical care. <P> Infantile polyarteritis nodosa is restricted to infants. In polyarteritis nodosa, small aneurysms are strung like the beads of a rosary, therefore making rosary sign an important diagnostic feature of the vasculitis. With treatment, five-year survival is 80%; without treatment, five-year survival is 13%. Polyarteritis nodosa: Macroscopic specimen of the heart with abundant adipose tissue and nodular thickened coronary vessels. In this disease, symptoms result from ischemic damage to affected organs, often the skin, heart, kidneys, and nervous system. <P> Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a systemic necrotizing vasculitis that typically affects medium-sized muscular arteries and occasionally affects small muscular arteries, resulting in secondary tissue ischemia.

what do carbohydrates consumed during carbon-fixation in photosynthesis
|
<P> By using the energy of sunlight, plants can convert carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates and oxygen in a process called photosynthesis. As photosynthesis requires sunlight, this process only happens during the day. We often like to think of this as plants `breathing in carbon dioxide and `breathing out oxygen. However, the process is not exactly this simple. Just like animals, plants need to break down carbohydrates into energy. <P> Carbon fixation or сarbon assimilation refers to the conversion process of inorganic carbon (carbon dioxide) to organic compounds by living organisms. The most prominent example is photosynthesis, although chemosynthesis is another form of carbon fixation that can take place in the absence of sunlight. In the second step, called the Calvin cycle, the actual fixation of carbon dioxide is carried out. This process consumes ATP and NADPH. The Calvin cycle in plants accounts for the preponderance of carbon fixation on land. <P> Carbon dioxide is converted into sugars in a process called carbon fixation. Carbon fixation is an endothermic redox reaction, so photosynthesis needs to supply both a source of energy to drive this process, and the electrons needed to convert carbon dioxide into a carbohydrate. In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product. Most plants, most algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs. Photosynthesis maintains atmospheric oxygen levels and supplies all of the organic compounds and most of the energy necessary for life on Earth. <P> Lesson Summary. Carbon fixation is the process by which inorganic carbon is added to an organic molecule. Carbon fixation occurs during the light independent reaction of photosynthesis and is the first step in the C3 or Calvin Cycle. <P> Carbon fixation (The Calvin Cycle). Carbon fixation stage in photosynthesis. The carbon fixation stage occurs in the stroma and results in the production of glucose [glucose: a simple sugar made by the body from food, which is used by cells to make energy in respiration] . <P> In photosynthesis, energy from sunlight drives the carbon fixation pathway. Oxygenic photosynthesis is used by the primary producers —plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. They contain the pigment chlorophyll, and use the Calvin cycle to fix carbon autotrophically. In the second step, called the Calvin cycle, the actual fixation of carbon dioxide is carried out. This process consumes ATP and NADPH. The Calvin cycle in plants accounts for the preponderance of carbon fixation on land. <P> Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy, normally from the Sun, into chemical energy that can be later released to fuel the organisms' activities. In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product. Most plants, most algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs. Photosynthesis maintains atmospheric oxygen levels and supplies all of the organic compounds and most of the energy necessary for life on Earth. <P> In C4 plants the photosynthesis takes place in a chloroplast of a thin-walled mesophyll cell and a 4-carbon acid is handed off to a thick-walled bundle sheath cell where the Calvin cycle occurs in a chloroplast of that second cell. This protects the Calvin cycle from the effects of photorespiration. In CAM plants the photosynthesis and initial carbon fixation occur at night and a 4-carbon acid is stored in the cell's vacuole. During the day, the Calvin cycle operates in the same chloroplasts. <P> Chapter 17 Reactions Photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which most of the energy in the biosphere. is produced. Most of the carbon dioxide and the production of oxygen in. the atmosphere results from photosynthesis. The overall reaction of. Photosynthesis consists of a set of light and dark reactions. <P> This chemical energy is stored in carbohydrate molecules, such as sugars, which are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water – hence the name photosynthesis, from the Greek φῶς, phōs, light, and σύνθεσις, synthesis, putting together. In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product. Most plants, most algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs. Photosynthesis maintains atmospheric oxygen levels and supplies all of the organic compounds and most of the energy necessary for life on Earth.

how long to fast before fasting glucose test
|
<P> 1 Fasting blood sugar test. 2 A blood sample will be taken after an overnight fast. 3 A fasting blood sugar level less than 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) is normal. 4 A fasting blood sugar level from 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L) is considered prediabetes. 1 A fasting blood sugar level less than 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) is normal. 2 A fasting blood sugar level from 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L) is considered prediabetes. 3 If it's 126 mg/dL (7 mmol/L) or higher on two separate tests, you have diabetes. 4 Oral glucose tolerance test. <P> 1 Oral glucose tolerance test. 2 For this test, you fast overnight, and the fasting blood sugar level is measured. 3 Then you drink a sugary liquid, and blood sugar levels are tested periodically for the next two hours. 4 A blood sugar level less than 140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L) is normal. 1 A fasting blood sugar level less than 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) is normal. 2 A fasting blood sugar level from 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L) is considered prediabetes. 3 If it's 126 mg/dL (7 mmol/L) or higher on two separate tests, you have diabetes. 4 Oral glucose tolerance test. <P> Standard rules dictate that in order to be fasting, you must not have had anything to eat or drink from 8-12 hours. At least 8 hours, but not more than 12, or you run the risk of dehydration or fainting. To help counteract that, make sure you drink plenty of water. For fasting sugar tests it can have an affect. Fasting longer than 12 to 14 hours will cause your body to start utilizing glycogen th … at is primarily stored in your muscles and that can affect blood tests for fasting sugar. <P> 1 A blood sample will be taken after an overnight fast. 2 A fasting blood sugar level less than 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) is normal. 3 A fasting blood sugar level from 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L) is considered prediabetes. 4 If it's 126 mg/dL (7 mmol/L) or higher on two separate tests, you have diabetes. 1 A fasting blood sugar level less than 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) is normal. 2 A fasting blood sugar level from 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L) is considered prediabetes. 3 If it's 126 mg/dL (7 mmol/L) or higher on two separate tests, you have diabetes. 4 Oral glucose tolerance test. <P> Fast for eight to 12 hours before you have your first blood taken. The glucose tolerance test includes a blood draw before you drink a sugary liquid, and an hour after that as well. If you're doing a three-hour glucose tolerance test, then it's one blood draw every hour for three hours. <P> All these blood test fasting rules are explained to the candidates at the time of consultation. The exact duration for the fast before a blood test is given below. Fasting Period Before a Blood Sugar Test. For blood glucose test, 8 hours of fasting is enough. As mentioned before, blood sugar reading is higher after food consumption. The rise in value will depend on the type of food ingested and time interval after having meal. To avoid all these confusions, fasting for blood work is directed to the patients. In general, the fasting period for blood test is 8 hours, and the maximum duration does not exceed 12 hours.

how long does it take to do a glass tile backsplash
|
<P> Estimating kitchen backsplash installation time. Actual time to install a kitchen backsplash determined by a number of factors, and accurate number of man-hours for completing the project can be estimated only after analyzing difficulty of work. Additional couple hours will be necessary for grout application and cleaning the job site. But complex backsplash installation with incorporation of different types of tile and creating unique design could be a very time consuming project which might last a few days to complete. <P> Project size. It is very uncommon that basic installation of 30 square feet marble tile backsplash will last longer than one day. But 8 hours might be insufficient time for a single tile setter to complete installation of 6” x 6” travertine tile and apply grout on over 55 ft 2 backsplash. Additional couple hours will be necessary for grout application and cleaning the job site. But complex backsplash installation with incorporation of different types of tile and creating unique design could be a very time consuming project which might last a few days to complete. <P> With a proper installation tile backsplash will last for many years. Tile is very long lasting product and it can easily serve its decoration function on a backsplash for 25 – 30 years or more. In majority of cases it won’t be a problem with longevity, but with appearance. Let say in 10 – 15 years you might just want to replace old fashion backsplash with some new and modern product. The prices for getting a new tile backsplash installed will depend on which product you will use and who will perform installation. There is a very huge price range for backsplash tile. Some products might cost as low as $1 s/f and some $20 s/f plus there will be additional cost for tile adhesive and grout if necessary. For the installation of tile backsplash and apply grout prepare to pay $10 - $20 <P> If so you should be able to grout as soon as you're done installing the tile. If you used spacers and have joints 1/8 or larger let the tile set up for about an hour before grouting. Make sure you remove the spacers! If your lines are wider than 1/8 make sure you use sanded or floor grout. Wall grout or unsanded is only for grout lines 1/8 or less. <P> This is a video of two homeowners installing a new glass tile backsplash in the kitchen. All items were bought at the local hardware store for about $200.00. This video shows how to install around the light sockets, how to cut the glass, and basically how to do a complete install from start to finish. <P> If you are planning to do it yourself it might take longer and everything will depend on your ability to manage the installation of tile. Usually, if you hire a professional installer to tile a kitchen backsplash it shouldn’t take longer than couple of days to complete 30 – 40 s/f of backsplash area. The prices for getting a new tile backsplash installed will depend on which product you will use and who will perform installation. There is a very huge price range for backsplash tile. Some products might cost as low as $1 s/f and some $20 s/f plus there will be additional cost for tile adhesive and grout if necessary. For the installation of tile backsplash and apply grout prepare to pay $10 - $20 <P> On average, an experienced tile setter is able to install 35 – 40 square feet of natural stone or glass mosaic tile set on 12” x 12” mesh for 5 – 6 hours. Additional couple hours will be necessary for grout application and cleaning the job site. But complex backsplash installation with incorporation of different types of tile and creating unique design could be a very time consuming project which might last a few days to complete. <P> Apply it with a notched trowel sized to your tile. For most wall tiles, the trowel will have 1/4- or 3/8-inch notches. Use the flat side of the trowel to spread the mastic onto the wall, starting at the center mark and working up to the horizontal reference line. <P> When tiling a backsplash, you have three simple materials: tile, wall, and the adhesive used to join tile to wall. If you are using a wet adhesive, your project will take several days to complete because the adhesive needs to dry to properly set. http://www.custombuildingproducts.com/TDS/TDS-119.pdf. So, a 14-foot-long wall that is two feet high is 28 square feet. http://buybondera.com/how-to. Use this number to purchase tile mat and tiles, adding five percent to 10 percent for wastage. In this example, you would purchase about 30 square feet of mat and tile.

the federal civil service was created by quizlet
|
<P> 1 Changes in the second half of the nineteenth century dramatically increased the government’s regulatory power. 2 The federal civil service, created by the 1883 Pendleton Civil Service Act, ensured that bureaucrats would be hired on the basis of merit rather than political connections. <P> The federal civil service was created by an Act of Congress in 1871. It was done to prevent the extreme unfairness in the hiring practices for those who worked for the government. <P> Which 1883 act of Congress outlawed political contributions by officeholders and created the Civil Service Commission to oversee competitive merit-based examinations for federal government positions? <P> The federal bureaucracy consists of the roughly 500 departments, agencies, administrations, authorities, and commissions that carry out responsibilities assigned to them through Congressional legislation. The oldest executive department is the Department of State, created by Congress in 1789. <P> Answered by The Community. Making the world better, one answer at a time. The federal civil service was created by an Act of Congress in 1871. It was done to prevent the extreme unfairness in the hiring practices for those who worked for the government. <P> To the Congress of the United States: I am transmitting to the Congress today a comprehensive program to reform the Federal Civil Service system. My proposals are intended to increase the government's efficiency by placing new emphasis on the quality of performance of Federal workers. <P> PENDLETON ACT (16 January 1883), the federal government's central civil service law, was written by Dorman B. Eaton, sponsored by Sen. George H. Pendleton of Ohio, and forced through Congress by public opinion. <P> This act, largely drafted by the New York Civil Service Reform Association, created the Civil Service Commission, which was directed to create a system of competitive examinations to fill vacancies in federal service positions and to ensure that the civil service was not used for political purposes.

<P> Facet Joints Video. Facet Hypertrophy is the term used to describe a degeneration and enlargement of the facet joints. The facet joints, which are a pair of small joints at each level along the back of the spine, are designed to provide support, stability, and flexibility to the spine. <P> Facet hypertrophic change is a term commonly found in x-ray and MRI reports concerning the condition of the spine. A facet is a type of joint found at the back or rear porti … on of the spine that gives support and strength to the spinal column while still allowing the spine to move. Facet joints are the joints which connect the vertebrae to one another. Degeneration of the facet joints is commonly caused by arthritis and is a cause of pain and loss of … mobility. <P> Hypertrophy is a word which means abnormal enlargement of the joint structures. Hypertrophy of the spinal facet joints is the process which is theorized to enact painful symptoms and is usually diagnosed as facet joint syndrome. The condition is a normal degenerative process that occurs in the spine as we age. Facet hypertrophy is a diagnosis which is often blamed for creating the ideal circumstances for chronic back pain. After all, hypertrophic changes to the spinal joints will not get better with time. <P> Sections. Facet joint hypertrophy is a condition in which the facet joints of the spine become enlarged. Facet joints are cartilage-encased hinges that hold adjacent vertebrae together. The pain of facet joint hypertrophy doesn’t come from the inflammation itself, but rather from the effect the inflammation has on surrounding spinal nerves. The vertebrae are surrounded by openings called foramina, through which our spinal nerves pass on their way to and from the muscles and sensory organs. <P> Facets are tiny joints in your spinal column. Sclerosis means hardening. So, mild facet sclerosis means mild hardening (or calcification) of the tiny joints in your spinal col … umn. This is a degenerative change that occurs in older people, in people with osteoarthritis, or in response to trauma. Facet joints are the joints which connect the vertebrae to one another. Degeneration of the facet joints is commonly caused by arthritis and is a cause of pain and loss of … mobility. <P> Facet Hypertrophy: Definition. Facet Hypertrophy is an enlargement of the facet joint. It can increase to the point where. nerves in the spine come under pressure and can cause lateral recess stenosis with subsequent radiculopathy. The hypertrophic degenerated joint is also a pain generator of its own. Facet Hypertrophy in a CT. The inferior articular process of a vertebra with the superior articular processes of the adjacent. lower vertebra forms a facet joint, also known as the zygapophysial joint. The facet joint is a synovial joint, as opposed to cartilaginous or fibrous joint. <P> Confidence votes 494. Facet hypertrophic change is a term commonly found in x-ray and MRI reports concerning the condition of the spine. A facet is a type of joint found at the back or rear portion of the spine that gives support and strength to the spinal column while still allowing the spine to move. In the case of facet hypertrophic changes, the ligaments would typically thicken and the bones in and around the joint would become more dense or harder, and extra bone tissue might be laid down to increase the size of the boney projections that make up the facet joint.

<P> According to a survey of U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data, the average cost of benefits as a percentage of total compensation has increased from around 20 percent in 1966 to nearly 30 percent today. Other People Are Reading. Employers pay 7.65 percent of the first $117,000 of an employee’s earnings for Social Security and Medicare, and 1.45 percent on earnings above that amount, for Medicare only. Other, smaller statutory benefits paid by the employer are workers’ compensation and unemployment tax <P> Benefits Costs per Category. Paid leave costs average $1.92 per hour worked (6.8 percent), while supplemental pay comes to 72 cents (2.7 percent), according to BLS. Insurance benefits average $2.26 per hour (8 percent). The remaining 30.4 percent comes from benefits. That means that a little less than one third of your employee expenses are benefits such as health insurance, and these costs should be factored in when you are considering adding employees. <P> The value of employer benefits. Benefits combined are worth about 30 percent of your total compensation package, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. They cost employers an average of $8.81 per hour worked in December 2008.Suppose you're offered an annual salary of $50,000. They cost employers an average of $8.81 per hour worked in December 2008. Suppose you're offered an annual salary of $50,000. Your benefits package would theoretically be worth more than $15,000, so your total compensation would be valued at roughly $65,000. <P> Use this percentage as a tool to quickly calculate the approximate benefits load for an employee. For example, if the average benefits load of the organization is 0.44, then an employee brought on at $20 per hour will earn $8.80 in benefits: 20 x 0.44 = 8.8. Calculate the fringe benefits as a percentage of salary to identify the benefits load.. Identify the average benefits load for the organization by dividing the total benefits cost for all employees by the total salary cost for all employees. <P> The highest percentage of benefit costs for private employers was required benefits, at 8.2%, followed by insurance at 7.8% and paid leave at 6.8%. According to the report, an employee with an annual salary of $50,000 would have a total compensation of $70,721. That employee would be paid: <P> (See table 5.) Retirement and savings costs were higher both in amount and as a proportion of total compensation for union workers ($4.05 and 8.7 percent of total compensation) than for nonunion workers (96 cents and 3.2 percent). Costs for management, professional, and related workers were $2.56 per hour worked (4.6 percent of total compensation), compared to $1.94 for natural resources, construction, and maintenance workers (5.7 percent) and 24 cents for service workers (1.6 percent). <P> Benefits combined are worth about 30 percent of your total compensation package, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. They cost employers an average of $8.81 per hour worked in December 2008. Suppose you're offered an annual salary of $50,000. Your benefits package would theoretically be worth more than $15,000, so your total compensation would be valued at roughly $65,000. <P> Wages and salaries account for 69.6 percent of employee expense. The remaining 30.4 percent comes from benefits. That means that a little less than one third of your employee expenses are benefits such as health insurance, and these costs should be factored in when you are considering adding employees. <P> Benefits as a Dollar Amount. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), as of March 2011, the average employee compensation expense was $30.07 per hour. Wages made up $20.91 of that. Benefits averaged $9.15 per hour. The remaining 30.4 percent comes from benefits.

Each red blood cell is about one third hemoglobin by volume. Each red blood cell can carry four hemoglobin molecules. Hemoglobin is responsible for the color of blood. When they put that thing on the tip of your finger at the ER they are measuring the percentage of hemoglobin's that are in red blood cells <P> Beta-globin is a component (subunit) of a larger protein called hemoglobin, which is located inside red blood cells. In adults, hemoglobin normally consists of four protein subunits: two subunits of beta-globin and two subunits of another protein called alpha-globin, which is produced from another gene called HBA. More than 10 mutations in the HBB gene have been found to cause methemoglobinemia, beta-globin type, which is a condition that alters the hemoglobin within red blood cells. These mutations often affect the region of the protein that binds to heme. <P> In mammals, the protein makes up about 96% of the red blood cells' dry content (by weight), and around 35% of the total content (including water). Hemoglobin has an oxygen-binding capacity of 1.34 mL O 2 per gram, which increases the total blood oxygen capacity seventy-fold compared to dissolved oxygen in blood. 1 Hemoglobin S (α 2 β S 2) – A variant form of hemoglobin found in people with sickle cell disease. 2 There is a variation in the β-chain gene, causing a change in the properties of hemoglobin, which results in sickling of red blood cells. <P> Myoglobin is an iron-and oxygen-binding protein found in the muscle tissue of vertebrates in general and in almost all mammals. It is related to hemoglobin, which is the iron-and oxygen-binding protein in blood, specifically in the red blood cells. In humans, myoglobin is only found in the bloodstream after muscle injury. It is an abnormal finding, and can be diagnostically relevant when found in blood <P> Hemoglobin (or haemoglobin, frequently abbreviated as Hb), which is contained in red blood cells, serves as the oxygen carrier in blood. The name hemoglobin comes from heme and globin, since each subunit of hemoglobin is a globular protein with an embedded heme (or haem) group. Each heme group contains an iron atom, and this is responsible for the binding of oxygen. <P> hemoglobin (hēˈməglōˌbĭn) [ key ], respiratory protein found in the red blood cells (erythrocytes) of all vertebrates and some invertebrates. A hemoglobin molecule is composed of a protein group, known as globin, and four heme groups, each associated with an iron atom. In the lungs, each iron atom combines reversibly with a molecule of oxygen. Each hemoglobin molecule also has attached a single cysteine amino acid, which attracts nitric oxide from the lung <P> Hemoglobin in the blood carries oxygen from the respiratory organs (lungs or gills) to the rest of the body (i.e. the tissues). There it releases the oxygen to permit aerobic respiration to provide energy to power the functions of the organism in the process called metabolism. 1 Hemoglobin S (α 2 β S 2) – A variant form of hemoglobin found in people with sickle cell disease. 2 There is a variation in the β-chain gene, causing a change in the properties of hemoglobin, which results in sickling of red blood cells. <P> Hemoglobin and hemoglobin-like molecules are also found in many invertebrates, fungi, and plants. In these organisms, hemoglobins may carry oxygen, or they may act to transport and regulate other things such as carbon dioxide, nitric oxide, hydrogen sulfide and sulfide. 1 Hemoglobin S (α 2 β S 2) – A variant form of hemoglobin found in people with sickle cell disease. 2 There is a variation in the β-chain gene, causing a change in the properties of hemoglobin, which results in sickling of red blood cells. <P> Hemoglobin is also found outside red blood cells and their progenitor lines. Other cells that contain hemoglobin include the A9 dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, macrophages, alveolar cells, and mesangial cells in the kidney. 1 Hemoglobin S (α 2 β S 2) – A variant form of hemoglobin found in people with sickle cell disease. 2 There is a variation in the β-chain gene, causing a change in the properties of hemoglobin, which results in sickling of red blood cells.

how soon can nausea start in pregnancy
|
<P> When to Expect Morning Sickness. For most women, morning sickness starts about the sixth week of pregnancy, which is about three weeks after conception, assuming you have a normal menstrual cycle. It can start as early as the fourth week, which is right around when you might get your period. <P> Morning sickness usually starts around week six of your pregnancy. But because every pregnancy is different, this can vary from woman to woman. If you have morning sickness, you may feel queasy when you wake up. But although it is called morning sickness, nausea can strike at any time of the day or night. <P> Nausea is one of the earliest signs of pregnancy. While breast tenderness is often the first noticeable sign of pregnancy, nausea usually starts quickly after that. Nausea can begin as early as the second week of your pregnancy. Most of the time, nausea does not start until between the fourth and sixth weeks of pregnancy. This will typically be between five and seven weeks after the end of the last menstrual period. <P> Once you have a confirmed pregnancy, the morning sickness usually starts around the first 4 to 6 weeks of pregnancy and it tends to get worse over the next month or so after it begins. However, for some women, the queasiness begins as early as two weeks after conception. <P> Nausea caused by pregnancy, sometimes called “morning sickness,” is a fairly common symptom of pregnancy. Around 70% of all new moms-to-be will experience morning sickness.

what kind of examination is a biopsy
|
<P> A breast biopsy is a test that removes tissue or sometimes fluid from the suspicious area. The removed cells are examined under a microscope and further tested to check for the presence of breast cancer. A biopsy is the only diagnostic procedure that can definitely determine if the suspicious area is cancerous. The good news is that 80% of women who have a breast biopsy do not have breast cancer. <P> Bone marrow biopsy. This is a procedure that removes a small, solid piece of bone marrow tissue for examination to determine whether a person has a blood disorder or blood cancer, such as leukemia or multiple myeloma. A fine needle biopsy may be the first type of biopsy done on smaller tumors that the doctor can feel through the skin. The doctor uses a very thin, hollow needle attached to a syringe to collect a small amount of fluid and cells from the suspicious area for examination and further testing. <P> A cervical biopsy is a procedure performed to remove tissue from the cervix to test for abnormal or precancerous conditions, or cervical cancer. The cervix is the lower, narrow part of the uterus (womb) located between the bladder and the rectum. <P> When a sample of tissue or fluid is removed with a needle in such a way that cells are removed without preserving the histological architecture of the tissue cells, the procedure is called a needle aspiration biopsy. Biopsies are most commonly performed for insight into possible cancerous and inflammatory conditions. The tissue is generally examined under a microscope by a pathologist, and can also be analyzed chemically. When an entire lump or suspicious area is removed, the procedure is called an excisional biopsy. <P> A biopsy is a procedure performed to remove tissue or cells from the body for examination under a microscope. A lung biopsy is a procedure in which samples of lung tissue are removed (with a special biopsy needle or during surgery) to determine if lung disease or cancer is present. <P> Fine needle aspiration biopsy. A fine needle biopsy may be the first type of biopsy done on smaller tumors that the doctor can feel through the skin. The doctor uses a very thin, hollow needle attached to a syringe to collect a small amount of fluid and cells from the suspicious area for examination and further testing. <P> Listen to the Cancer.Net Podcast: Biopsy-What to Expect, adapted from this feature. A biopsy is a medical procedure that, for most types of cancer, is the only way to make a definitive cancer diagnosis, as it provides the most accurate analysis of tissue. A fine needle biopsy may be the first type of biopsy done on smaller tumors that the doctor can feel through the skin. The doctor uses a very thin, hollow needle attached to a syringe to collect a small amount of fluid and cells from the suspicious area for examination and further testing. <P> Here are some types of biopsies: 1 Needle biopsy. 2 Most biopsies are needle biopsies, meaning a needle is used to access the suspicious tissue. 3 CT-guided biopsy. 4 A person rests in a CT-scanner; the scanner's images help doctors determine the exact position of the needle in the targeted tissue. 5 Ultrasound-guided biopsy. 1 <P> A prostate gland biopsy is a test to remove small samples of prostate tissue to be examined under a microscope. For a prostate biopsy, a thin needle is inserted through the rectum (transrectal biopsy), through the urethra, or through the area between the anus and scrotum (perineum). A transrectal biopsy is the most common method used. The tissue samples taken during the biopsy are examined for cancer cells. <P> A biopsy is a medical test commonly performed by a surgeon, interventional radiologist, or an interventional cardiologist involving sampling of cells or tissues for examination. It is the medical removal of tissue from a living subject to determine the presence or extent of a disease. The tissue is generally examined under a microscope by a pathologist, and can also be analyzed chemically. When an entire lump or suspicious area is removed, the procedure is called an excisional biopsy.

definition of executive agreements
|
<P> This article is about executive agreements between nations in general. For information on executive agreements in US foreign policy, see Foreign policy of the United States#Law. An executive agreement is an agreement between the heads of government of two or more nations that has not been ratified by the legislature as treaties are ratified. Executive agreements are considered politically binding to distinguish them from treaties which are legally binding. An executive agreement is one of three mechanisms by which the United States enters into binding international agreements. They are considered treaties by some authors as the term is used under international law in that they bind both the United States and a foreign sovereign state. <P> Executive agreements. an agreement between the United States and a foreign government that is less formal than a treaty and is not subject to the constitutional requirement for ratification by two-thirds of the U.S. Senate. <P> An agreement made between the executive branch of the US government and a foreign government without ratification by the Senate. <P> Executive agreement, also called “international agreement other than treaties” is an international agreement that the US president enters without the Senate’s approval. The President constitutionally enters into these agreements without the advice and consent of the Senate. These agreements are drawn on the sole constitutional authority of the president. <P> Definition of EXECUTIVE AGREEMENT. : an agreement between the United States and a foreign government made by the executive branch either alone or with Congressional approval and dealing usually with routine matters.

Britannica.com: Encyclopedia article about executive agreement. <P> An accord made by joint authority of the Congress and the president covering areas of International Law that are not within the ambit of treaties. A congressional-executive agreement comes about in different ways. Congress may authorize the president to conclude a particular agreement already negotiated, as when a multilateral agreement establishes an international organization such as the International Monetary Fund. <P> President Obama has entered into a number of executive agreements, including the U.S.-Afghanistan Strategic Partnership Agreement in May 2012 (aka the Enduring Strategic Partnership Agreement between the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan). The president of the United States possesses the authority to enter into executive agreements. However, this power does not derive from the U.S. Constitution. The power to enter into a particular executive agreement flows from one of two sources: <P> INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS WITHOUT SENATE APPROVAL. The capacity of the United States to enter into agreements with other nations is not exhausted in the treaty-making power. The Constitution recognizes a distinction between ''treaties'' and ''agreements'' or ''compacts'' but does not indicate what the difference is. In the 50-year period from 1839 to 1889, a few more executive agreements than treaties were entered into. From 1889 to 1939, almost twice as many executive agreements as treaties were concluded. In the period since 1939, executive agreements have comprised more than 90% of the international agreements <P> An executive agreement is an agreement entered into between a foreign government and the executive branch of the United States. Although the agreement binds the United States with as much force as a treaty, it is not as formal as a treaty and does not require Senate approval.

<P> Astaxanthin is a powerful, naturally occurring carotenoid pigment that's found in certain marine plants and animals. Often called the king of the carotenoids, astaxanthin is recognized as being one of the most powerful antioxidants found in nature. It is of particular significance, because unlike some other types of antioxidants, astaxanthin never becomes a pro-oxidant in the body so it can never cause harmful oxidation. <P> Under the Sea. Fish oil isn't the only thing from the ocean that can improve function in the human body. Astaxanthin is a carotenoid pigment that’s found in trout, microalgae, yeast, and shrimp, among other sea creatures. It is most commonly found in Pacific salmon, and is what gives the fish its pinkish color. An antioxidant, astaxanthin is said to have many health benefits. <P> It's a little-known carotenoid called astaxanthin, which is now believed to be the most potent antioxidant nature has to offer. Scientists long ago discovered that a class of naturally occurring pigments called carotenoids held powerful antioxidant properties that are crucial for your health. However, this powerful carotenoid is harder to come by. Natural Astaxanthin is in a League of Its Own Natural astaxanthin is produced only by the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis when its water supply dries up, forcing it to protect itself from ultraviolet radiation. <P> Astaxanthin (pronounced asta-ZAN-thin) is a naturally-occurring carotenoid found in algae, shrimp, lobster, crab and salmon. Carotenoids are pigment colors that occur in nature and support good health. Beta carotene, for example, is orange. Astaxanthin, dubbed the king of the carotenoids is red, and is responsible for turning salmon, crab, lobster and shrimp flesh pink. In the animal kingdom, astaxanthin is found in the highest concentration in the muscles of salmon. <P> In this article. Astaxanthin is a carotenoid, a chemical found naturally in certain plants and animals. A type of algae makes astaxanthin. This algae is used as a source for the astaxanthin in supplements. Some types of seafood also contain astaxanthin. <P> Astaxanthin is a reddish pigment that belongs to a group of chemicals called carotenoids. It occurs naturally in certain algae and causes the pink or red color in salmon, trout, lobster, shrimp, and other seafood. Astaxanthin is POSSIBLY SAFE when taken by mouth as a supplement. Astaxanthin has been used safely by itself in doses of 4 to 40 mg daily for up to 12 weeks. It has been used safely in combination with other carotenoids, vitamins and minerals at 4 mg daily for up to 12 months. <P> Astaxanthin is part of the carotenoid family, an organic pigment found in algae (Haematococcus Pluvialis), bacteria and plants. Carotenoids are what gives flowers, fruits and vegetables their vibrant colors. <P> Astaxanthin is a carotenoid and a powerful antioxidant. Our bodies do not synthesize astaxanthin, so it can only be obtained from food or supplementation. Astaxanthin does not convert into vitamin A – good news, because it means that supplementation will not lead to vitamin A overdose and toxicity.

why do small dogs live longer than big dogs
|
<P> Like us on Facebook. Large animals tend to live longer (sometimes much more so) than smaller ones*. A cat is going to live longer than a rat, you’re going to live longer than a cat and a Galapagos tortoise is going to live longer than you. The world’s smallest mammal, the bumblebee bat, is thought to live 5 to 10 years, while the largest, the blue whale, lives for 80 to 90. <P> As a practicing veterinarian of over twenty years, I’ve been nagged by an obvious and seemingly unanswerable question: why do small dogs live longer than large dogs? For years it’s been widely accepted and understood in the pet world that tiny teacup poodles will live ten or more years longer than a Great Dane. They’re both dogs, share the same basic DNA, eat the same types of foods, and live in similar homes. Yet one breed lives up to three times longer. <P> A mixed breed dog is not more likely to live longer than a pure breed. A bigger determinant of dog life span is the size of the dog. Little dogs generally live longer than big … dogs. The most long-lived little dog may live up to twice as long as the most short-lived big dog. Hybrid vigor refers to the fact that if a dog is bred from a mix of breeds it may be less likely to have problems caused by a recessive gene that may prevail in one breed. <P> A. It is true that the small, or toy, breeds live longer. The Chihuahua, for example, has a life expectancy of 16 to 18 years. The larger the dog, the shorter its life. Great Danes rarely live more than 8 years. In the simplest terms, there is less strain on the organs (liver, heart, lungs, etc.) of a small dog to keep it alive and much more strain on those of larger dogs <P> It is widely known and accepted that small dogs live longer than large dogs. For example, a Great Dane is considered “senior” at 5 years of age, while a small poodle or Chihuahua is barely considered middle aged at the same age. Another theory has to do with concentrations of growth hormone. Studies suggest that small dogs have lower concentrations of the growth hormone IGF-1, in their blood than big dogs. Lower concentrations of IGF-1 shows reduced risk of age-related diseases and longer lifespans. <P> The scientists found that larger dogs appeared to age at a faster rate than smaller dogs. Interestingly, the research concluded that every increase in 4.4 pounds (2 kg) reduces life expectancy by approximately one month. Okay, so my observations on small dogs living longer than big dogs were correct. For years it’s been widely accepted and understood in the pet world that tiny teacup poodles will live ten or more years longer than a Great Dane. They’re both dogs, share the same basic DNA, eat the same types of foods, and live in similar homes. Yet one breed lives up to three times longer. <P> Normally, across species, larger mammals live longer than their smaller counterparts; for instance, elephants can get up to 70 years old in the wild, while house mice reach only 4 years. Puzzlingly, within species, the opposite seems true — in mice, horses and perhaps even humans. <P> Relevance. Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: It's certainly true that very large dogs tend to come with more health problems because their bodies simply can't take the strain of their size-Great Danes and St Bernards and the like are simply 'too big'!! <P> The phenomenon is well known to dog lovers: Dogs from bigger breeds don’t live as long as smaller ones. The small breeds have an average life expectancy of 12 to 14 years; for larger breeds, it's 8 to 10; and for the so-called “giant breeds,” lifespan is 5 to 8 years. A cat is going to live longer than a rat, you’re going to live longer than a cat and a Galapagos tortoise is going to live longer than you. The world’s smallest mammal, the bumblebee bat, is thought to live 5 to 10 years, while the largest, the blue whale, lives for 80 to 90. <P> do small dogs live longer than big dogs, and if so how much longer, my sister bought my parents a 1yr old male maltese shitzu. Answer. James -. Small dogs do tend to have a longer lifespan than larger dogs. Small dogs tend to live until they are between 12-15 years; large dogs tend to live to between 8-11 years old depending on the breed of the dog. These numbers are average; big dogs can live long lives far into their teens with good healthcare and good breeding.

Because there is less strain on the organs (liver, heart, lungs, etc.) of a small dog to keep it alive and much more strain on those of larger dogs.

what are the pyramids of giza
|
<P> The Great Pyramid at Giza, after all, is one of the seven ancient wonders of the world. To visit the Pyramids is to be struck dumb by their monumentality, their celebration of the fundamental human need to create. It's even more affecting in the midst of a revolution, when there are no tourists at all. <P> Khufu's son, Pharaoh Khafre, built the second pyramid at Giza, circa 2520 B.C. His necropolis also included the Sphinx, a mysterious limestone monument with the body of a lion and a pharaoh's head. The Sphinx may stand sentinel for the pharaoh's entire tomb complex. All three of Giza's famed pyramids and their elaborate burial complexes were built during a frenetic period of construction, from roughly 2550 to 2490 B.C. The pyramids were built by Pharaohs Khufu (tallest), Khafre (background), and Menkaure (front). <P> The Great Pyramid of Giza (also known as the Pyramid of Khufu or the Pyramid of Cheops) is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids in the Giza Necropolis bordering what is now El Giza, Egypt. It is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact. The Giza pyramid complex, which includes among other structures the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, is surrounded by a cyclopean stone wall, the Wall of the Crow. <P> Standing at the base of the Great Pyramid, it is hard to imagine that this monument—which remained the tallest building in the world until early in this century—was built in just under 30 years. It presides over the plateau of Giza, on the outskirts of Cairo, and is the last survivor of the Seven Wonders of the World. <P> Khafre's son, Menkaure, built the smallest of the 3 main Pyramids on the Giza Plateau. This one was only a mere 65.5m (215ft) tall, nowadays 62m (203ft), with sides of only 105m (344ft) and an angle of 51.3 degrees. There are three main Pyramids here, which were built in the 4th Dynasty (circa 2550 B.C). The Pyramids of Ancient Egypt were built as tombs for Kings (and Queens), and it was the exclusive privilege to have a Pyramid tomb. However, this tradition only applied in the Old and Middle Kingdoms. <P> The Great Pyramid is surrounded by a complex of several buildings including small pyramids. The Pyramid Temple, which stood on the east side of the pyramid and measured 52.2 metres (171 ft) north to south and 40 metres (130 ft) east to west, has almost entirely disappeared apart from the black basalt paving. The Giza pyramid complex, which includes among other structures the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, is surrounded by a cyclopean stone wall, the Wall of the Crow. <P> Khufu – 2575-2566 BC. The largest of the three pyramids at Giza, known as the Great Pyramid, is truly an astonishing work of engineering. It was built over a twenty year period. Some believe that it was built by slaves, but this is not true. <P> Khufu, son of Snefru and second ruler of the 4th dynasty (time line) moved the royal necropolis to Giza, north of modern-day Cairo. According to ancient Greek historian Herodotus, Khufu (aka Cheops) enslaved his people to build his pyramid. On the Giza Plateau, Khufu's builders oriented his pyramid almost perfectly north. The largest pyramid ever built, it incorporates about 2.3 million stone blocks, weighing an average of 2.5 to 15 tons each. It is estimated that the workers would have had to set a block every two and a half minutes. <P> Back to Site List. Giza is located west and south of modern Cairo, in the vast desert imagined by the ancient Egyptians to be the land of the dead. Guarded by the Great Sphinx, the plateau is dominated by the massive pyramids of Khufu (Gr. Cheops), Khafre (Gr. Chephren), and Menkaure (Gr. Mycerinus), all of whom ruled Egypt during the 4th Dynasty (c. 2500 BC). <P> 1 Khufu’s pyramid, known as the great pyramid of Giza, is the oldest and largest, rising at 481 feet (146 meters). 2 Archaeologists say it was the tallest structure in the world for about 3, 800 years. 3 The relationship between Pi (p) and Phi (F) is expressed in the fundamental proportions of the Great Pyramid. 1 The Pyramid of Menkaure, the Pyramid of Khafre and the Great Pyramid of Khufu are precisely aligned with the Constellation of Orion. 2 The base of the pyramid covers 55,000 m2 (592,000 ft 2) with each side greater than 20,000 m2 (218,000 ft2) in area.

what is spongiform encephalopathies
|
<P> Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) is the bovine (cattle) form of a group of diseases called transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). TSEs are chronic degenerative diseases that affect the central nervous system of the infected animal. They are known to occur in sheep and goats (scrapie), deer and elk (chronic wasting disease), mink (transmissible mink encephalopathy) and domestic cats (feline spongiform encephalopathy). Cattle suffering from BSE are often irritable and can react violently to stimuli that normally do not impact healthy animals. <P> As BSE is the bovine (beef) form of a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE), there also are several TSEs expressed in humans: Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), variant-CJD (vCJD), Gerstmann-Straeussler-Sträussler scheinker (SYNDROME), gss fatal familial (INSOMNIA) ffi And. kuru They are known to occur in sheep and goats (scrapie), deer and elk (chronic wasting disease), mink (transmissible mink encephalopathy) and domestic cats (feline spongiform encephalopathy).

what will the weather be like when air pressure is rising
|
<P> 1 Rising barometric pressure is a good indicator that no storms are developing in the following 24 hrs and there will be fair weather or no precipitation. 2 In winter, rising pressure can also indicate snow if the weather has been frosty. 3 Clear skies are associated with high air pressure. <P> 1 Weather in a high pressure system is usually drier. 2 As the sinking air increases in pressure and temperature, the number of clouds in the sky decreases leaving less chance for precipitation. 3 Some avid fishermen even swear by a rising barometer to get their best catches! Air pressure is typically reported in units called millibars or inches of mercury. 1 The origin of a high pressure zone will determine the type of weather to come. 2 If a high pressure zone moves in from the south, the weather is usually warm and clear in the summer. <P> 1 If the air pressure rises very quickly, the calm weather and clear skies will generally be over as quickly as they came. 2 An abrupt rise in pressure can indicate a short-lived high pressure zone with a stormy low pressure zone behind it. 3 That means you can expect clear skies followed by a storm. Air pressure is typically reported in units called millibars or inches of mercury. 1 The origin of a high pressure zone will determine the type of weather to come. 2 If a high pressure zone moves in from the south, the weather is usually warm and clear in the summer. <P> High pressure systems are usually called Fair Weather Systems because the 7 types of weather in a high pressure zone are generally comfortable and clear. Keep in mind that high and low pressures mean the air is under higher or lower pressure relative to the surrounding air. Air pressure is typically reported in units called millibars or inches of mercury. 1 The origin of a high pressure zone will determine the type of weather to come. 2 If a high pressure zone moves in from the south, the weather is usually warm and clear in the summer. <P> Answer by Big cat fan. Confidence votes 1.3K. When air pressure is rising, it means that a high pressure area is coming in your direction. High pressure areas tend to bring very sunny and calm weather so the weather should improve when the air pressure is rising. Since temperature is related to air pressure.

diseases that occur through genotype
|
<P> Huntington disease is a progressive brain disorder that causes uncontrolled movements, emotional problems, and loss of thinking ability (cognition). Adult-onset Huntington disease, the most common form of this disorder, usually appears in a person's thirties or forties. The HTT mutation that causes Huntington disease involves a DNA segment known as a CAG trinucleotide repeat. This segment is made up of a series of three DNA building blocks (cytosine, adenine, and guanine) that appear multiple times in a row. <P> Infection is the invasion of an organism's body tissues by disease-causing agents, their multiplication, and the reaction of host tissues to these organisms and the toxins they produce. Infectious disease, also known as transmissible disease or communicable disease, is illness resulting from an infection. The symptoms of an infection depend on the type of disease. Some signs of infection affect the whole body generally, such as fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, fevers, night sweats, chills, aches and pains. Others are specific to individual body parts, such as skin rashes, coughing, or a runny nose. <P> Hepatitis C Virus Genotypes. An important variable for all patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the genotype of HCV with which they are infected. This is the strain of the virus to which they were exposed when they were infected, often many years prior to their evaluation, and it is determined by a simple blood test. <P> the genetically inherited condition in which there is a marked deficiency of pigmentation in skin, hair, and eyes. An individual with these traits is an albino.. Since the gene for albinism is recessive, it only shows up in the phenotype of homozygous recessive people. the situation in which two different alleles for a trait are expressed unblended in the phenotype of heterozygous individuals. Neither allele is dominant or recessive, so that both appear in the phenotype or influence it. Type AB blood is an example. <P> Cystic fibrosis occurs as a result of inheriting a recessive allele for it from both parents. This is ultimately a fatal disease, but with modern medical care, about 2/3 of the people with it survive into early adulthood. About 30,000 people have cystic fibrosis in the U.S. today. the situation in which two different alleles for a trait are expressed unblended in the phenotype of heterozygous individuals. Neither allele is dominant or recessive, so that both appear in the phenotype or influence it. Type AB blood is an example. <P> Obesity results from the energy imbalance that occurs when a person consumes more calories than their body burns. Obesity is a serious public health problem because it is associated with some of the leading causes of death in the U.S. and worldwide, including diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and some types of cancer. <P> The Genotype is that part (DNA sequence) of the genetic makeup of a cell, and therefore of an organism or individual, which determines a specific characteristic (phenotype) of that cell/organism/individual. The distinction between genotype and phenotype is commonly experienced when studying family patterns for certain hereditary diseases or conditions, for example, haemophilia. Due to the diploidy of humans (and most animals), there are two alleles for any given gene. <P> Hepatitis C is a liver disease caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV), which is found in the blood of persons who have this disease. HCV is spread by contact with the blood of an infected person. <P> A simple example to illustrate genotype as distinct from phenotype is the flower colour in pea plants (see Gregor Mendel). There are three available genotypes, PP (homozygous dominant), Pp (heterozygous), and pp (homozygous recessive). The distinction between genotype and phenotype is commonly experienced when studying family patterns for certain hereditary diseases or conditions, for example, haemophilia. Due to the diploidy of humans (and most animals), there are two alleles for any given gene. <P> Sickle cell disease is a group of disorders that affects hemoglobin, the molecule in red blood cells that delivers oxygen to cells throughout the body. People with this disorder have atypical hemoglobin molecules called hemoglobin S, which can distort red blood cells into a sickle, or crescent, shape. Sickle cell disease affects millions of people worldwide. It is most common among people whose ancestors come from Africa; Mediterranean countries such as Greece, Turkey, and Italy; the Arabian Peninsula; India; and Spanish-speaking regions in South America, Central America, and parts of the Caribbean.

cold fill bottling process
|
<P> Asia countries have successfu lly put hot fill process of PET bottles in production of shelf stable low-acid tea drinks, especially Woo-long and green tea. Other sensitive low-acid products would become main stream products by using implemented hot fill technology. Preheating of glass bottles is necessary before filling in order to reduce the risk of glass splintering. Prior to closure the bottle beck is flushed with steam. Steam injection keeps foaming to redu ces the oxygen content of the neck space and lowers the recontamination risk. <P> Hot Fill, Cold Fill and Flash Pasteurization. Hot-fill is a common process for liquid sampling that sterilizes the product prior to being poured into the bottle. The hot-fill process creates vacuum after fiiling, which along with the high filling temperatures requires a very sturdy container. EliteFill™ has in depth experience at both Hot Fill and Cold Fill applications, as well as Flash Pasteurization techniques, thereby allowing you to offer modern sampling packaging for your liquids and juice products without loss of quality, taste or flavoring. <P> Cold-fill is a filling process used for many fresh products such as milk and fresh juices, using containers that don’t interfere with the flavor or taste of the product. Cold fill also allows a great deal of flexibility in terms of design freedom with package, as well as providing tast and flavor protection. EliteFill™ has in depth experience at both Hot Fill and Cold Fill applications, as well as Flash Pasteurization techniques, thereby allowing you to offer modern sampling packaging for your liquids and juice products without loss of quality, taste or flavoring. <P> A cold-aseptic filling system can replace hot-filling processes, or bottle and can filling systems that use tunnel pasteurisers. There must always be an integrated approach in which equal attention is paid to filling safety, operating costs and operating safety, and which factors these aspects in during implementation. The process involves bottling a product at ambient temperatures without tunnel pasteurisation or hot filling and without the use of preservatives or cold sterilising agents. The products are only briefly heated before filling. <P> Hot Fill Bottling Lines in the Beverage Industry. * * * *. The hot fill packaging process has become very popular in the beverage industry for several reasons. Firstly, the heat is an effective method to sterilize the container and prevent bacteria growth. Many consumers are becoming aware of the ill effects of chemicals and preservatives in the packaging process and hot fill offers bottlers an alternative to incorporating these into their process. Hot fill can be suitable for multiple different types of drinks and can significantly extend the shelf life of a product. <P> Cold-aseptic filling is now a widely used process that is consistently being adapted to new demands. For example, rising energy prices are having an effect on energy efficiency in mechanical and plant engineering, and thus companies are focusing on economic efficiency. The process involves bottling a product at ambient temperatures without tunnel pasteurisation or hot filling and without the use of preservatives or cold sterilising agents. The products are only briefly heated before filling. <P> Beverage Production. Bottling facilities differ in the types of bottling lines they operate and the types of products they can run. There are Cans vs. Bottles, Hot-Fill vs. Cold-Fill and Natural vs. Conventional packaging. It is critical to understand the requirements of the beverage brand before you begin the production process. Demand for non-alcoholic beverages has been the catalyst for innovations in drink production in recent years, including beverage plants, processing and, packaging. No two-beverage plants are alike <P> Drinks cartons have been filled aseptically for decades. Cold-aseptics is the state-of-the-art process, but with relatively low throughput volumes and a firm commitment to the suppliers of the packaging material. Aseptic filling is ‘relatively’ new to PET containers, but has been undergoing practical testing for over a decade. The process involves bottling a product at ambient temperatures without tunnel pasteurisation or hot filling and without the use of preservatives or cold sterilising agents. The products are only briefly heated before filling. <P> This feature is not available right now. Please try again later. Yeo's had launched the First Aseptic Cold Fill PET Beverage Production Line in Malaysia, delivering Malaysian's all-time favourite Asian Drinks with natural goodness and great refreshing taste.

how long can lovebirds breed
|
<P> Health Requirements: To breed sucessfully, each breeding Lovebird should be healthy, normal, and between one and five years of age. Nesting Requirements: Lovebirds need a nest box in which to lay their eggs. The proper size for a Lovebird is about 12x12x12, with an entrance hole of about 3 inches in diameter. Egg Laying: Female Lovebirds will lay their eggs between 5 - 12 days after mating. Many will lay an egg every other day until they have all been laid. Each clutch usually contains between 3 and 7 eggs. Incubation Time: On average, Lovebirds incubate their eggs for about 23 days <P> 1 Lovebirds will breed willingly as single pairs and some species of lovebirds can be bred in a colony setting. 2 Especially suited to a colony are the white eye-ring group of lovebirds. 3 Breeding Age for Lovebirds. 4 Lovebirds need to be at least 10 months old, though 12 to 13 months is better. Housing. Lovebirds are very active birds. When housing your lovebird, bird cages or an aviary best suited to them must provide a lot of space. 1 Bird Cages: A minimum of 32 x 20 x 20 (81 x 50 x 50 cm) per pair of birds is recommended with about four perches, feed and water dishes and an area for a bath. <P> As the breeding season approaches, the female lovebird will tuck nesting material into her wings and will carry it back to the nest. During this time, males will mate with the female repeatedly and eggs can be expected within three to five days after mating. <P> Refer to Housing Birds web page for additional general details on the housing of Parrots. Lovebirds are inexpensive, easy to breed, easy to feed. One pair can be housed indoors in a Budgie breeder type cage of about 900mm long, 500mm wide and 500mm high (36 x 20 x 20 inches). Larger numbers can be housed in an outside aviary. Suspended cages can be used and be the same size as stated for the cages. Commercially made lovebird breeding boxes can be purchased cheaply form most bird dealers, pet shops and bird clubs. Boxes are usually timber and the lower part is about 200 - 250 mm long, 150 - 200 mm wide, and about 200 - 250 mm high. <P> Often after a long separation or stressful period of time, breeding pairs of lovebirds feed each other to re-establish their bond. One bird transfers food to the mouth of its mate, a feeding technique reminiscent of affection in humans—hence the inspiration for the parrots' name. 1. Lovebirds mate for life. The monogamous birds reach sexual maturity when they're about ten months old. Mating begins with courtship behavior, and can continue throughout their roughly 15-year lifespans. <P> Usually a combination of these are best. Determined Lovebirds can build their nest in 4 or 5 days. The first egg is laid about 10 days after mating, and another egg is laid every other day until the clutch is 4 to 6 eggs. After 6 or 7 days, you should be able t o tell if the eggs are fertile by candling them. Hold the eggs gently near a bright light. <P> Usually breeding Lovebirds lay their eggs between 5 to 12 days after mating. The hen spends long period of time in the nest box as laying time approaches and at this time, sufficient supplies of drench seed and cuttle fish bone should be made available. There are four to six eggs laid in alternating days.

what size can a carry on bag be for southwest
|
<P> Size. Southwest accepts luggage that is no more than 62 linear inches. This means the height, width and length of the bags you check must equal 62 inches or less. Checking larger items will cause you to incur a $50 fee per item that is larger than 62 inches. Southwest will accept items that equal as many as 80 linear inches <P> Some airlines provide weight requirements in addition to size requirements for carry-on luggage. Southwest Airlines does not have a maximum weight for carry-on bags. On short flights, you might not bother packing a carry-on bag because you can pass the time with ease. On a longer flight, however, a carry-on bag allows you to pack several items to keep you entertained. <P> Each airline has its own luggage policy regulating the size of carry-on and checked luggage. The regulations provide a smoother flying experience by limiting the amount of luggage in the cabin and by giving airlines a better idea of how much weight the plane is carrying. For example, Southwest Airlines (southwest.com) requires the dimensions of duffel bags to be no larger than 10 inches by 16 inches by 24 inches, and has no weight limitation for carry-ons. Measure each of your bag's dimensions -- the width, length and height -- to ensure it's within those measurements <P> Each passenger on Southwest Airlines (southwest.com) is permitted one regular carry-on bag and one small personal item. This item can be a camera, laptop, purse, briefcase, or food. Most of the rules governing carry-ons are made by TSA, and apply to passengers on all airlines. These rules include restrictions on large and potentially dangerous items, liquids and gels. Southwest Airlines also limits carry-ons to one bag and one small personal item per passenger, with a few exceptions. <P> 1 The maximum size carry-on bag for most airlines is 45 linear inches (the total of the height, width, and depth of the bag). 2 Anything larger should be checked. 3 No oversize packages or luggage can be stowed onboard. Think Small…. 1 The maximum size carry-on bag for most airlines is 45 linear inches (the total of the height, width, and depth of the bag). 2 Anything larger should be checked. <P> Size Regulations. Carry-on baggage size regulations are set by each airline, rather than the Transportation Security Administration or another governing body. Southwest Airlines requires that carry-on baggage measures no more than 10-by-16-by-24 inches. When you arrive at the Southwest counter in the airport, you'll see a receptacle in which your carry-on bag must fit comfortably to be permitted onto the airplane. On short flights, you might not bother packing a carry-on bag because you can pass the time with ease. On a longer flight, however, a carry-on bag allows you to pack several items to keep you entertained. <P> Types of Baggage. Each passenger on Southwest Airlines (southwest.com) is permitted one regular carry-on bag and one small personal item. This item can be a camera, laptop, purse, briefcase, or food. Pet carriers can count as either a carry-on or personal item. Most of the rules governing carry-ons are made by TSA, and apply to passengers on all airlines. These rules include restrictions on large and potentially dangerous items, liquids and gels. Southwest Airlines also limits carry-ons to one bag and one small personal item per passenger, with a few exceptions. <P> In order to keep the passenger compartment uncluttered and safe, the airlines place rules and size limits on the luggage that each traveler can carry on the plane. The primary rule is the size limit stating that bags carried on board must be small enough to store below your seat or in the overhead compartment. Currently the basic rule is that carry on baggage must be no taller than 22 inches, no wider than 14 inches, and no deeper than 9 inches. In many cases, you'll also have to contend with limits on weight.

<P> The Guide to American Hardwood Species. Hardwoods are the botanical group of trees that have broad leaves, produce a fruit or nut, and generally go dormant in the winter. America's temperate climates produce forests with hundreds of hardwood species -- trees that share certain biological characteristics. Although oak, maple and cherry all are types of hardwood trees, for example, they are different species. Together, all the hardwood species represent 40 percent of the trees in the United States. <P> Red maple is one of the most abundant and widespread hardwood trees in North America (Figure 3.8). Probably no other species of forest tree, certainly no hardwood, can thrive on a wider variety of soil types and sites. There are thirteen native maple species in North America (Table 3-1). While most of these species are probably tapped to some extent, at least by hobbyists, sugar and black maple, along with red maple (Acer rubrum), provide most of the commercial sap. <P> By Steve Nix. Start your tree ID with my Tree Finder and Tree Leaf Key if you are not sure what kind of tree you have and the tree has leaves. If you have a dormant tree with no leaves in winter, review my Winter Tree Finder and my Dormant Tree Photo Gallery for extra help. The Most Common North American Hardwood Trees. Here are the most common North American hardwoods or trees variously known as angiosperms, broadleaf, deciduous and hardwoods. These trees are abundant in both individual tree count and varieties of species in the Eastern North American forest. Hardwood foliage are leaves that can be broad or narrow, thick and thin generally shed annually and can be aligned in an alternate or opposite arrangement. <P> Here is a guide to a selection of nut trees native to North America: the common, the disappearing, and the gone.

The tree has horizontal branches and occurs naturally in sub-tropical regions of South America and the islands of Oceania. The Chile pines are valued for their excellent quality wood which is used for building. The floss silk tree (Ceiba speciosa, formerly Chorisia speciosa). The floss silk is a species of deciduous tree native to the tropical and subtropical forests of South America. It has a host of local common names, such as palo borracho (in Spanish literally “drunken tree”). <P> Introduction. The diversity of forest types in North America is extensive and comprises a cross section of forest types from the northern boreal to the subtropical regions. A thorough and detailed description of all forest types found in North America is not the intent of this encyclopedia. Rather, a generalized description of the broad categories of types across the North American continent is the objective. <P> 1 Hardwoods are deciduous trees that have broad leaves, produce a fruit or nut and generally go dormant in the winter. 2 North America’s forests grow hundreds of varieties that thrive in temperate climates, including oak, ash, cherry, maple and poplar species.

what can a lpn do
|
<P> State regulations may put restrictions on what duties an LPN/LVN can perform or how much RN and physician supervision is required. Licensed practical nurse training typically covers a wide variety of topics, such as pediatric nursing and emergency care, so LPN/LVN graduates can be well-versed in all areas of their job. <P> The acronym LPN stands for Licensed Practical Nurse. Some states refer to this job as an LVN or Licensed Vocational Nurse. What the LPN does depends on the “scope of practice” laws in the state where you work. Each state board of nursing regulates what the LPN can and cannot do. In general, LPN's provide patient care in a variety of settings within a variety of clinical specializations. <P> Role of an LPN. LPN s provide patient care in a variety of healthcare settings. They are most often found in nursing homes, group homes, private homes or similar locations. They often work under the supervision of an RN or doctor and may be responsible for the oversight of nursing aides. <P> Licensed practical nurses (LPNs) work with doctors and registered nurses to perform health care tasks, such as measuring vital signs and observing patients. To become an LPN, you need to complete a practical nursing training program and pass a licensing exam. Keep reading to find out more about what an LPN does. <P> Career Overview. As a licensed practical nurse, also called a licensed vocational nurse (LVN), your job duties will be to provide basic care and assistance for sick, injured, disabled, and other patients in a variety of settings. <P> But I keep hearing how LPN's can't do this and can't do that. I'm in North Carolina and I've seen many job openings for LPN's so I'm not worried about not being able to find a job. Also, the NCLEX pass rate for LPN's at my school is 100% whereas the pass rate for the ADN students is 77%. <P> You'll be an important part of the health care team in your role as a licensed practical or vocational nurse. Licensed practical and licensed vocational nurse (LPN or LVN) jobs are actually the same role despite the slight difference in name. The LVN title is only used in Texas and California. The job involves a variety of daily tasks ranging from dressing wounds to feeding infants.

However, the average granite countertop will cost approximately $50 to $100 per square foot. In addition to the size, the cost will also depend on how thick you want the slab to be. <P> There are a number of factors and options that can affect the final price of a countertop installation. The stone itself can cost anywhere from as low as $30 to over $100 per square foot. First of all, it depends on the color, pattern and rarity of the granite you choose. <P> Perhaps the most comparable product around is a type of simulated granite, or quartz with resins, that can indeed approach or meet the price of granite at around $35.00 to $80.00 per square foot, depending on color chosen. <P> Installed granite countertops can range from $40 to $150 per square foot. This wide price range is because the final cost of granite countertops will depend on several factors including the variation, quality and availability of the granite as well as the individual costs of the fabricator and installer. <P> 1 For Do-It-Yourselfers, granite tile countertops cost $4-$19 per square foot, or $120-$570 for a typical kitchen with 30 square feet of counter space. <P> An examination of other countertops does reveal it is not the most expensive countertop option however.

what hotel was the movie the shining filmed in
|
<P> The interior sets were partly based, not on the Timberline, but on the Ahwahnee Hotel, in Yosemite Park, California. To complicate matters further, it’s sometimes claimed that the film was made at the Stanley Hotel, 333 East Wonderview Avenue, Estes Park in Colorado. This is the hotel in which King stayed in 1973, and which inspired the original story. <P> Apparently the ABC miniseries, THE SHINING was filmed at the Stanley Hotel. However the movie, THE SHINING was filmed at Mt Hood Lodge in Oregon. Not filming the movie at The Stanley had, according to one site, annoyed Stephen King and this had been the part of the motivation for ABC's refilming of the story! Stephen King-the Overlook-the Stanley Hotel and Ghosts. back to historyinfo. Most folks have either seen the movie, THE SHINING or read Stephen King's book of the same title (one of King's best and scariest books!). The story takes place in a very haunted hotel named The OverLook. <P> Though the Stanley is often referred to as The Hotel from the Shining, this is a misnomer; Kubrick actually used exteriors from a different hotel for the film starring Jack Nicholson and Shelley Duval. The one thing people notice is we have a much lighter coloring than you'd expect, Oglesby said. <P> The movie The Shining was based on the Stephen King novel of the same name, which was inspired by The Stanley Hotel in Colorado. Kubrick was asked not to depict room #217 (featured in the book) in The Shining, because future guests at the Lodge might be afraid to stay there. So a nonexistent room, #237, was substituted in the film. <P> The Shining is a 1980 British-American psychological horror film produced and directed by Stanley Kubrick, co-written with novelist Diane Johnson, and starring Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd, and Scatman Crothers. In the film, Jack Torrance, a writer and recovering alcoholic, takes a job as an off-season caretaker at the isolated Overlook Hotel. His young son possesses psychic abilities and is able to see things from the past and future, such as the ghosts who inhabit the hotel. <P> The Timberline Lodge located on Mt. Hood in Oregon is the name of the hotel that was used for the front exterior shots in the film. Confidence votes 3. The Timberline Lodge located on Mt. Hood in Oregon is the name of the hotel that was used for the front exterior shots in the film.

Hood in Oregon was used for the front exterior, but all the interiors as well as the back of the hotel were specially built at Elstree Studios in London, England. <P> All interior scenes were shot at Elstree Studios as well, and do not depict the interior of the Timberline Lodge. Kubrick was asked not to depict room #217 (featured in the book) in The Shining, because future guests at the Lodge might be afraid to stay there.

Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by
|
<P> Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by the gradual loss of the normal density of bone. This condition causes bones to become porous, which in turn becomes weak and brittle increasing the risk of fractures. <P> Osteoporosis is a bone condition characterized by decreased bone mass and the subsequent deterioration of bone tissue. Often called the silent disease, this progressive condition causes bones to become more porous, thin and brittle, thus more susceptible to fracture. Men, women and in rare cases even children can develop osteoporosis; however, the condition is most prevalent in older adults. An estimated 44% of Americans over age 50 – some 44 million people – have been diagnosed with the condition or identified at increased risk for osteoporosis due to low bone mass. <P> Osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by weak, brittle bones, which dramatically increases a person’s risk for broken bones—mainly in the hips, wrists and spine. Approximately 52 million Americans have osteoporosis and low bone density (osteopenia). Because it has very few, if any, symptoms, Osteoporosis is considered a “silent disease.” Those who do exhibit symptoms may have noticed a loss of height or severe back pain. In addition, people with bone loss can easily fracture bones from a low-impact fall (from a standing position or less). <P> 1 Osteoporosis is a condition of fragile bone with an increased susceptibility to fracture. 2 Osteoporosis weakens bone and increases risk of bones breaking. 3 Bone mass (bone density) decreases after 35 years of age, and bone loss occurs more rapidly in women after menopause. This disorder of the skeleton weakens the bone and results in frequent fractures (breaks) in the bones. Osteopenia is a condition of bone that is slightly less dense than normal bone but not to the degree of bone in osteoporosis. <P> Osteoporosis-pseudoglioma syndrome is a rare condition characterized by severe thinning of the bones (osteoporosis) and eye abnormalities that lead to vision loss. In people with this condition, osteoporosis is usually recognized in early childhood. <P> Osteopenia is a bone condition characterized by a decreased density of bone, which leads to bone weakening and an increased risk of breaking a bone (fracture). The difference between osteopenia and osteoporosis is that in osteopenia the bone loss is not as severe as in osteoporosis. That means someone with osteopenia is more likely to fracture a bone than someone with a normal bone density but is less likely to fracture a bone than someone with <P> Osteoporosis Overview. Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and loss of bone tissue that may lead to weak and fragile bones. If you have osteoporosis, you have an increased risk for fractured bones (broken bones), particularly in the hip, spine, and wrist. Osteoporosis is often considered to be a condition that frail elderly women develop. However, the damage from osteoporosis begins much earlier in life. <P> Osteopenia is defined as a condition of decreased bone density caused by a greater bone resorption than bone creation (see the eMedTV article Bone) . Osteopenia is considered a milder form of bone loss that does not meet the criteria of osteoporosis. <P> Osteoporosis facts. 1 Osteoporosis is a condition of fragile bone with an increased susceptibility to fracture. 2 Osteoporosis weakens bone and increases risk of bones breaking. 3 Bone mass (bone density) decreases after 35 years of age, and bone loss occurs more rapidly in women after menopause. This disorder of the skeleton weakens the bone and results in frequent fractures (breaks) in the bones. Osteopenia is a condition of bone that is slightly less dense than normal bone but not to the degree of bone in osteoporosis. <P> Osteoporosis, or porous bone, is a disease characterized by low bone mass and structural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and an increased risk of fractures of the hip, spine, and wrist. Men as well as women are affected by osteoporosis, a disease that can be prevented and treated. 1 Characterized by an irrational fear of weight gain, this eating disorder increases your risk for osteoporosis. 2 Calcium and vitamin D intake. 3 A lifetime diet low in calcium and vitamin D makes you more prone to bone loss.

As the first rocket completely developed in the 21st century, Falcon 9 was designed from the ground up for maximum reliability. Falcon 9, along with the Dragon spacecraft, was designed from the outset to deliver humans into space and under an agreement with NASA, SpaceX is actively working toward that goal. <P> Falcon 9 is a family of two-stage-to-orbit launch vehicles designed and manufactured by SpaceX. The Falcon 9 versions are the Falcon 9 v1.0 (phased-out), Falcon 9 v1.1 (current version, expendable), and the Falcon 9-R (reusable launch system). The Falcon 9 v1.1 will be the base for the Falcon Heavy launch vehicle. Falcon 9 will also be human-rated for transporting NASA astronauts to the ISS as part of a Commercial Crew Transportation Capability contract. <P> Falcon 9 made history in 2012 when it delivered Dragon into the correct orbit for rendezvous with the International Space Station, making SpaceX the first commercial company ever to visit the station. Falcon 9, along with the Dragon spacecraft, was designed from the outset to deliver humans into space and under an agreement with NASA, SpaceX is actively working toward that goal. <P> SpaceX's reusable Grasshopper reaches a new record height of just over 1,066 feet (325 meters) on June 14, 2013 during a test flight from its McGregor, Texas proving ground.

SpaceX's reusable Grasshopper rocket prototype rises skyward from its McGregor, Texas launch pad during a June 14, 2013 test flight that reached 1,066 feet (325 meters) before descending back to Earth. <P> A reusable first stage is now being flight tested by SpaceX with the suborbital Grasshopper rocket. By April 2013, a low-altitude, low-speed demonstration test vehicle, Grasshopper v1.0, had made five VTVL test flights including an 80-second hover flight to an altitude of 744 metres (2,441 ft). The Falcon 9 v1.1 will be the base for the Falcon Heavy launch vehicle. Falcon 9 will also be human-rated for transporting NASA astronauts to the ISS as part of a Commercial Crew Transportation Capability contract. <P> The Falcon 9 v1.1 ELV is a 60 percent heavier rocket with 60 percent more thrust than the v1.0 version of the Falcon 9. It includes realigned first-stage engines and 60 percent longer fuel tanks, making it more susceptible to bending during flight. The Falcon 9 v1.1 will be the base for the Falcon Heavy launch vehicle. Falcon 9 will also be human-rated for transporting NASA astronauts to the ISS as part of a Commercial Crew Transportation Capability contract. <P> In its sixth-ever test flight, SpaceX's experimental Grasshopper rocket hopped to a maximum altitude of 1,066 feet (325 meters) on June 14. It then made a slow and controlled descent back to Earth at the company's rocket development facility in McGregor, Texas. SpaceX's reusable Grasshopper rocket prototype rises skyward from its McGregor, Texas launch pad during a June 14, 2013 test flight that reached 1,066 feet (325 meters) before descending back to Earth. <P> In November 2012, CEO Elon Musk announced SpaceX's plans to build a second, much larger, reusable rocket system, this one to be powered by LOX / methane rather than LOX/ RP-1 used on Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy. The SpaceX reusable launch system development program is a privately funded program to develop a set of new technologies for an orbital launch system that may be reused many times in a manner similar to the reusability of aircraft. <P> Thrust at liftoff is equal to approximately eighteen 747 aircraft operating simultaneously. [ How SpaceX's Falcon Heavy Rocket Works (Infographic) ]. SpaceX's Falcon Heavy will stand a towering 224.4 feet (68.4 meters) tall with 27 engines powering its three-booster first stage. The rocket's second stage has one engine that can help deliver a satellite or other payload to a chosen orbit after it separates from the first stage of the rocket. SpaceX representatives expect to start flights of the Falcon 9 Heavy later this year. When Falcon Heavy lifts off later this year, it will be the most powerful operational rocket in the world by a factor of two, SpaceX representatives wrote in a video description.

cost to abandon a well
|
<P> A: Costs vary depending upon the well depth, diameter, location, and other factors. A shallow driven well may be plugged for as little as $50. The average cost for plugging a well in Michigan is $500. Your costs may be reduced by having your old well plugged at the time the replacement well is drilled or at the time you connect to municipal water service. <P> Demonstration pr ojects approved under the PDEGP will allow SWCDs to expend as much as $5,000 for well abandonment. Under this option, 100% of the expenses for a field day for water well sealing demonstrations could be covered. However, total project and field day costs may not to exceed the $7,500 PDEGP maximum limit. Cost-share cannot exceed $500 or 80% of the actual cost, whichever is less. REQUIRED APPLICATION FORMS AND DEADLINES $ A Request for Cost-Share Funds to Abandon a Water Well (IWWAP-1) $ A Water Well Sealin g Plan (IWWAP-2) (77 Ill. <P> If your estimate is only $600.00 to properly abandon the well, and your income reduction is $750.00, you should not apply because your abandonment cost is less than the income reduction, therefore you will not be getting a reimbursement check. The DNR will cover eligible costs up to the invoice amount, less the 25 percent cost-share requirement. Well abandonment work must be done according to DNR specifications and the unused private well must be properly abandoned and filled by a licensed well driller or pump installer before payment will be made. <P> 1 Drilling the well hole, installing the casing (a tubular lining that prevents the well hole from collapsing) and adding a well cap (a tight-fitting, vermin-proof top seal) typically costs $15-$30 per foot, or $1,500-$3,000 for a 100' deep well, and $6,000-$12,000 for a 400' well. 1 The well driller should provide a written contract listing the work to be done and the specific costs, including potential fees for drilling deeper or drilling a second well if the first must be abandoned. 2 Foster Water Well Drilling in California explains how to hire a water well contractor. <P> under the PDEGP will allow SWCDs to expend as much as $5,000 for well abandonment.

How much will it cost to have my well filled & sealed? It would be approximately $1000 to fill and seal a 100-foot deep 6-inch diameter well with bentonite chips, remove the pump and piping, and file the report. It would be approximately $1600 if that same well were 200 feet deep. A 2-inch diameter 50-foot well would cost approximately $300 to fill and seal. Grant funding may be available to assist with the cost of filling and sealing private wells through the Department of Natural Resources Well Abandonment Grant program. <P> Abandonment costs are costs associated with the abandonment of a business venture. This term traditionally applied to the process of abandoning an under-producing or non-producing oil or gas well. The cost of a routine abandonment of a typical well in the United States is about $5000 (~Texas average cost in year 2000). <P> Example of income reduction. Your family income is $47,500 for both you and your spouse. Your licensed well driller has given you an estimate that the proper well abandonment will cost $600. Your family income is $47,500 - minus the maximum base allowed, without income reduction, is $45,000. The difference is $2,500 - this number multiplied by .30 (30 percent) is $750.00, or your income reduction. The DNR will cover eligible costs up to the invoice amount, less the 25 percent cost-share requirement. Well abandonment work must be done according to DNR specifications and the unused private well must be properly abandoned and filled by a licensed well driller or pump installer before payment will be made. <P> 1 This brings the typical total for drilling a well and setting up a private water delivery system to $3,500-$20,000 or more, but an especially deep and difficult well with a complex water system can cost $20,000-$50,000 or more, depending on depth, water yield and system complexity. 1 The well driller should provide a written contract listing the work to be done and the specific costs, including potential fees for drilling deeper or drilling a second well if the first must be abandoned. 2 Foster Water Well Drilling in California explains how to hire a water well contractor. <P> It is occasionally referred to as Removal and Abandonment or R & A. The objective of well abandonment is to ensure that no hydrocarbons leak into surface water or into the atmosphere. The cost of a routine abandonment of a typical well in the United States is about $5000 (~Texas average cost in year 2000). If a well has developed a leak that allows gas to flow up the outside of the well casing, finding and correcting the leak can push the cost of abandonment beyond $100,000

what does potassium do in muscle contraction
|
<P> High K-induced contractions in the smooth muscle of rabbit aorta and guinea pig taenia coli may be described as follows: High K depolarizes the smooth muscle cell membrane and opens voltage dependent Ca channels, resulting in an influx of extracellular Ca and an activation of contractile machinery. <P> Potassium plays a role in many body functions including transmission of nerve signals, muscle contractions, fluid balance, and various chemical reactions. Potassium is safe for most people when taken by mouth in amounts of up to 90 mEq of total potassium from the diet and supplements combined. <P> Potassium is a very important mineral for the proper function of all cells, tissues, and organs in the human body. It is also an electrolyte, a substance that conducts electricity in the body, along with sodium, chloride, calcium, and magnesium. Potassium is crucial to heart function and plays a key role in skeletal and smooth muscle contraction, making it important for normal digestive and muscular function. <P> This movement of calcium ions triggers the muscle cell to contract. Magnesium ions found in the fluid surrounding the cells generate a small electrical charge in response to the calcium ions and propels the calcium ions back across the calcium sensitive potassium pump in the cell membrane. This stimulates potassium ions to flow out of the cell, which produces muscle cell relaxation. <P> Electrolytes are especially important for normal contraction of skeletal and cardiac muscle fibers. Without the appropriate balance of electrolytes such as potassium and sodium, heart contractions become abnormal and the risk of heart attack increases. <P> Sodium and Potassium. Sodium and potassium play essential roles in muscle contraction because of their importance in nerve function. Your nervous system communicates with your muscles through structures called neuromuscular junctions, and the activation of a nerve triggers muscle contraction. <P> Potassium, along with sodium and calcium, functions as an electrolyte, which means that it balances the amount of fluid in the body and transmits the tiny electrical nerve impulses. Its role in transmitting electrical impulses gives potassium an important role in muscle contractions. <P> The balance between sodium and potassium creates an electrical and chemical gradient that functions to transport molecules in and out of the cell and transmit nerve signals that induce muscle contraction.

can you become disabled osteoarthritis
|
<P> Share on Google Plus. Osteoarthritis, the most common type of arthritis, occurs when the cartilage on the ends of your bones wears down. This can cause pain and stiffness in the joints, swelling, muscle weakness, and a reduced range of motion in the affected joints. Osteoarthritis can occur in any joint, but is most often found in the hands, hips, knees, or spine. <P> It is fairly common for osteoarthritis to occur in the vertebrae of the spine, but osteoarthritis in the spine qualifies for disability benefits only under certain conditions. To meet the requirements of the listing for spinal disorders, you must have a diagnosis of osteoarthritis in your spine and one of the following: <P> Osteoarthritis: Symptoms, Information & Treatment. Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, and the leading cause of chronic disability in the United States affects nearly 27 million people. <P> Osteoarthritis causes pain and stiffness in the joints for many, many people as they get older (it is sometimes called degenerative arthritis), but few people qualify for disability on account of arthritic pain and stiffness. <P> If you have osteoarthritis in the vertebrae of the spine, you are not alone. This is a very common area of the body to have OA. Under certain specific condition, a person with OA of the spine can be approved for disability. <P> But keep this all in perspective: Most people with OA don't become disabled by it. And you can take many steps, exercising and losing weight, for example, that will help you keep your osteoarthritis manageable and prevent disability down the road. <P> Introduction. Osteoarthritis is a condition that causes the joints to become painful and stiff. It is the most common type of arthritis in the UK. The severity of osteoarthritis symptoms can vary greatly from person to person, and between different affected joints. <P> Few people qualify for disability benefits for their osteoarthritis, despite how painful it can be. However, if your OA symptoms get progressively worse to the point where you lose the ability to use your hands for daily living activities, or it limits your mobility, there is a chance of getting disability payments.

what is the average cost to get a henna tattoo done
|
<P> Answers. Best Answer: Henna tattoos will last about a month. Im sure u can get them without adult consent. i got a henna tattoo of a cross on my shoulder at a local fair a few months ago and it cost like 15ish dollars. Source(s): Gauged · 6 years ago <P> 1 Most tattoo artists charge an hourly rate that varies from about $75 to $150 an hour, according to Bill Johnson, executive office director of the Alliance of Professional Tattooists.. 2 The length of time it takes to do a tattoo can vary from one to many hours, depending on the size and complexity of the design. <P> 1 On average, a henna tattoo can cost anywhere from $20 to as much as $150 or more for a complex design. 2 Some artists will charge by the design while others will charge by the hour. 3 A typical henna tattoo can take up to 2 hours to perform. 1 A service such as HennaSanDiego.com shows that the price for the service ranges anywhere from $100 to $300, while individual henna tattoos can cost anywhere from $10 to $80 depending on the type of design. 2 Another service such as Hennabodyartgallery.com offer types of henna tattoos that cost between $15 to $40. <P> It depends on the intricacy of design and expertise of the henna artist. For me, a simple palm size design takes 5 to 8 minutes. Henna design on hands of a bride may take anywhere from one hour to two hours. After henna is applied, the paste dries of in 5-10 minutes. We spray lemon and sugar juice to moist the paste again so that it gets good color to the skin. Henna paste is applied in skin just like you are writing in your skin from a marker. The henna paste is like toothpaste (dark brown in color though) <P> 1 Another service such as Hennabodyartgallery.com offer types of henna tattoos that cost between $15 to $40. 2 This is going to depend on the complexity of the design. 1 A service such as HennaSanDiego.com shows that the price for the service ranges anywhere from $100 to $300, while individual henna tattoos can cost anywhere from $10 to $80 depending on the type of design. 2 Another service such as Hennabodyartgallery.com offer types of henna tattoos that cost between $15 to $40. <P> The cost of the kit is similar to the cost of getting it done and you get natural henna from them. You can not get it black like in your picture though with henna. It will be a dark brown. Only a real tattoo or stage makeup can get it black and still be safe. I would like someone to quote me a price for this henna tattoo that I'd like to get on my upper back. (If it helps, I will be getting this done in Ocean City, MD, so the prices may be slightly inflated haha). here's the link to the picture: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a166/d... <P> 1 According to IndyHenna.com, the prices can range anywhere from $5 to $150 depending on the design of the tattoo. 2 A service such as HennaSanDiego.com shows that the price for the service ranges anywhere from $100 to $300, while individual henna tattoos can cost anywhere from $10 to $80 depending on the type of design. 1 A service such as HennaSanDiego.com shows that the price for the service ranges anywhere from $100 to $300, while individual henna tattoos can cost anywhere from $10 to $80 depending on the type of design. 2 Another service such as Hennabodyartgallery.com offer types of henna tattoos that cost between $15 to $40. <P> That small amount of henna should cost $6.00 if you have someone else do it for your. You can get a great kit and learn how to do it yourself.http://www.hennacaravan.com/shop/kits.ht... YOu can draw on your skin with a child's marker or have another person do it for you. <P> Henna tattoos are not expensive and may be done at home. The paste itself is only a few dollars. However, intricate and complex designs can cost about $20-$40 or more depending on the extent of the tattoo. Most artists spend about 1-2 hours designing henna tattoos.

why is gaba an inhibitory neurotransmitter
|
<P> GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter that is very widely distributed in the neurons of the cortex. GABA contributes to motor control, vision, and many other cortical functions. It also regulates anxiety. <P> Neurotransmitters: Exciting and Inhibiting. Gamma-Amino-Butyric-Acid, or GABA, is the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the human brain. Along with serotonin, dopamine, glutamate, glycine, histamine, and norepinephrine, among dozens of other neurotransmitters, GABA regulates brain function. <P> Glutamate. Glutamate is an excitatory relative of GABA. It is the most common neurotransmitter in the central nervous system-as much as half of all neurons in the brain-and is especially important in regards to memory. Curiously, glutamate is actually toxic to neurons, and an excess will kill them. It is an inhibitory neurotransmitter, meaning that when it finds its way to its receptor sites, it blocks the tendency of that neuron to fire. Dopamine is strongly associated with reward mechanisms in the brain. Drugs like cocaine, opium, heroin, and alcohol increase the levels of dopamine, as does nicotine. <P> GABA'S ROLE IN THE BRAIN. GABA is made in brain cells from glutamate, and functions as an inhibitory neurotransmitter meaning that it blocks nerve impulses. Glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter and when bound to adjacent cells encourages them to fire and send a nerve impulse. Serotonin is another neurotransmitter and it enhances GABA. Therefore, as precursors to serotonin, Tryptophan and 5-HTP increase GABA action. Theanine is an amino acid found in large amounts in tea. It is why a cup of tea can be calming despite the fact it contains caffeine. <P> Some of these release activating (or depolarizing) neurotransmitters; others release inhibitory (or hyperpolarizing) neurotransmitters. GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter, which means it decreases the neuron's action potential. When the action potential drops below a certain level, known as the threshold potential, the neuron will not generate action potentials and thus not excite nearby neurons. Neurons in every region of the brain use GABA to fine-tune neurotransmission. Increasing GABA at the neuronal synapse inhibits the generation of the action potential of the neuron, thereby making it less likely to excite nearby neurons. A single neuron may have thousands of other neurons synapsing onto it. <P> The resultant action potential is always the same, whether it was created by relatively strong or relatively weak stimuli. action potential is a constant. Decreasing the action potential: GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter, which means it decreases the neuron’s action potential. When the action potential drops below the threshold potential, the neuron will not excite nearby neurons. Neurons in every region of the brain use GABA to fine-tune neurotransmission. Increasing GABA at the neuronal synapse inhibits the generation of the action potential of the neuron, thereby making it less likely to excite nearby neurons. A single neuron may have thousands of other neurons synapsing onto it. <P> Inhibitory Neurotransmitters. SEROTONIN is an inhibitory neurotransmitter – which means that it does not stimulate the brain. Adequate amounts of serotonin are necessary for a stable mood and to balance any excessive excitatory (stimulating) neurotransmitter firing in the brain. There are two kinds of neurotransmitters – INHIBITORY and EXCITATORY. Excitatory neurotransmitters are not necessarily exciting – they are what stimulate the brain. Those that calm the brain and help create balance are called inhibitory. <P> GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter that is often referred to as “nature’s VALIUM-like substance”. When GABA is out of range (high or low excretion values), it is likely that an excitatory neurotransmitter is firing too often in the brain. GABA will be sent out to attempt to balance this stimulating over-firing. There are two kinds of neurotransmitters – INHIBITORY and EXCITATORY. Excitatory neurotransmitters are not necessarily exciting – they are what stimulate the brain. Those that calm the brain and help create balance are called inhibitory. <P> INTRODUCTION: Gamma-Amino Butyric acid (GABA) is an amino acid which acts as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It inhibits nerve transmission in the brain, calming nervous activity. As a supplement it is sold and promoted for these neurotransmitter effects as a natural tranquilizer. Serotonin is another neurotransmitter and it enhances GABA. Therefore, as precursors to serotonin, Tryptophan and 5-HTP increase GABA action. Theanine is an amino acid found in large amounts in tea. It is why a cup of tea can be calming despite the fact it contains caffeine.

Because when it finds its way to its receptor sites, it blocks the tendency of that neuron to fire.

in what organ does chemical digestion begin
|
<P> Definition. Your body utilizes two types of digestion: chemical digestion and mechanical digestion. Chemical digestion refers the to the breakdown of food in the mouth, stomach and intestines through the use of acids and enzymes. <P> Digestion begins in the mouth. Mechanical digestion begins with the chewing of food. Chemical digestion also begins in the mouth with the enzymes been produced and used … to break down the food. 4 people found this useful. The main parts of the digestive system are the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver, gull bladder, and pancreas. Food does not actually pass thro … ugh the liver, gull bladder and pancreas, but they do produce a green liquid called bile that helps digestion. <P> Big Ideas Digestion. Digestion is the breakdown of food into simpler molecules that can be absorbed by the body. The digestive system is actually a long hollow tube called the gastrointestinal tract, or GI tract. The digestive system includes the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. The first task of the digestive system is to break down food into a fine pulp (mechanical digestion). When the food is physical broken down, digestive chemicals break the food down into small molecules (chemical digestion). The mouth is the organ in which the process of digestion begins <P> Saliva. -saliva (a fluid in your mouth) is released and moistens the food-saliva has enzymes-saliva begins to break down food (chemical digestion of starches and some lipids) -cleanses the mouth-dissolves food to enhance taste. <P> Proteins in the mouth, stomach and intestine called enzymes are the primary facilitators of chemical digestion. In the mouth, chemical digestion begins when the food enters and encounters saliva and the enzymes that it contains. When the food reaches the stomach, different hormones trigger the body to begin releasing enzymes that further digest the food. Pepsin is the name of the enzyme that breaks down most of the proteins in the food. The digestion of carbohydrates, which began in the mouth with an enzyme called amylase, also continues here. <P> Digestive System Anatomy. Although you may think the stomach is the primary site for digestion, the multistep process involves several organs and structures. The second you bite into your sandwich, your mouth and pharynx begin the mechanical and chemical breakdown of your food. <P> Digestion involves the mixing of food, its movement through the digestive tract, and the chemical breakdown of the large molecules of food into smaller molecules. Digestion begins in the mouth, when we chew and swallow, and is completed in the small intestine. <P> Mechanical digestion involves physically breaking the food into smaller pieces. Mechanical digestion begins in the mouth as the food is chewed. Chemical digestion involves breaking down the food into simpler nutrients that can be used by the cells. Chemical digestion begins in the mouth when food mixes with saliva. Saliva contains an enzyme (amylase) that begins the breakdown of carbohydrates. The organs produce digestive chemicals (enzymes and acids) that break down the nutrients into simpler forms so that absorption through the intestinal wall and into the blood stream can occur. Mechanical and Chemical Digestion. There are two kinds of digestion: mechanical and chemical. <P> Chemical digestion is the process through which the body of a mammal reduces food to a size where the nutrients that it contains can be absorbed into the bloodstream. The process begins in the mouth, continues in the stomach and ends when the digested particles move through the small intestine for absorption. When the food reaches the stomach, different hormones trigger the body to begin releasing enzymes that further digest the food. Pepsin is the name of the enzyme that breaks down most of the proteins in the food. The digestion of carbohydrates, which began in the mouth with an enzyme called amylase, also continues here.

how much liquid chlorine to add to pool daily
|
<P> Check chlorine level in pool water at least daily with a pool testing set and add this product as needed to maintain 0.6 to 1.0 ppm available chlorine. One pint of Clorox Bleach-Regular Scent per 6,000 gallons of water will supply approximately <P> Pool Size. Before you add the chlorine, you need to know how many gallons of water are in the pool. A round ring pool, 48 inches tall and 15 feet across, holds 4,978 gallons. An in-ground pool can hold 31,000 gallons or more. <P> Before adding chlorine to the pool, test the current chlorine level with a pool chlorine test strip. Generally, you should maintain the pool's chlorine level between 1 and 3 ppm. Thus, if the chlorine level is already 1 ppm and you want it higher, add 0.00013 ounces per gallon to raise the chlorine by 1 ppm. Simply multiply the number of gallons in the pool, such as 4,978, by 0.00013 to find that you should add -- in this example -- .65 ounces of chlorine. <P> Once you have calculated the gallons in your pool, you can begin depositing the recommended amount of chlorine into it daily or weekly. According to the Pool and Spa website, you add 2.5 ounces of the chlorine for every 10,000 gallons of water. This is generally the standard with most chlorine manufacturers, but reading the label of the brand you have purchased is suggested, in case of slight differences. <P> Start-Up. Add 52-104 oz. per 10,000 gallons of pool water to yield an available chlorine level of 5-10 ppm. Winterizing. While the pool water is still clear and clean, add 3 oz. per 1000 gallons, while filter is running, to obtain an available chlorine level of 3 ppm. <P> – Add 52-104 oz per 10,000 gallons of pool water to yield an available chlorine level of 5-10 ppm. How much should I add when I winterize my pool in the fall? – While the pool water is clear and clean, add 3 oz. per 1000 gallons, while filter is running to obtain an available chlorine level of 3ppm.

what is net primary product
|
<P> Net primary production is the rate at which all the plants in an ecosystem produce net useful chemical energy; it is equal to the difference between the rate at which the plants in an ecosystem produce useful chemical energy (GPP) and the rate at which they use some of that energy during respiration. <P> Production can also be quantified by measuring the rate of new biomass accumulation over time. The distinction between gross primary production (GPP), net primary production (NPP), and net ecosystem production (NEP) is critical for understanding the energy balance in plants and in whole ecosystems. <P> Primary Productivity. The flow of energy through any ecosystem starts with the fixation of sunlight by plants and other autotrophic organisms. In this way the plant accumulates energy and this energy is called primary production. The rate at which this energy accumulates is called primary p <P> Gross primary production (GPP) is the amount of chemical energy as biomass that primary producers create in a given length of time. <P> Net Primary Productivity (NPP) is the amount of carbon uptake after subtracting Plant Respiration (RES) from Gross Primary Productivity (GPP). GPP is the total rate at which the ecosystem capture and store carbon as plant biomass, for a given length of time. NPP = GPP – RES. <P> (GPP is sometimes confused with Gross Primary productivity, which is the rate at which photosynthesis or chemosynthesis occurs.) Some fraction of this fixed energy is used by primary producers for cellular respiration and maintenance of existing tissues (i.e., growth respiration and maintenance respiration ). <P> NPP is the net amount of biomass produced each year by plants; it is a major indicator for trophic energy flows in ecosystems. HANPP measures to what extent land conversion and biomass harvest alter the availability of NPP (biomass) <P> Net primary productivity. The rate at which an ecosystem accumulates energy or biomass, excluding the energy it uses for the process of respiration. This typically corresponds to the rate of photosynthesis, minus respiration by the photosynthesizers.

what is thought to be shakespeare first play
|
<P> What plays were performed at the Globe?Probably the first Shakespeare play to be performed at the Globe was Julius Caesar, in 1599. Some other Shakespeare plays first performed there are: As You Like It; Hamlet; Measure for Measure; Othello; King Lear; Macbeth and Antony and Cleopatra. Other playwrights wrote for the Globe, including Ben Jonson, Thomas Dekker and John Fletcher. What happened to the first Globe?Disaster struck the Globe in 1613. On 29 June, at a performance of Shakespeare’s Henry VIII, some small cannons were fired. <P> King Lear is thought by many to be one of Shakespeare's greatest triumphs, a play layered with complexities of the human condition: it is a study in human suffering and the kinship of man. It follows the story of Lear, the King of England, as he descends slowly into madness and his three daughters. It was coined by George Bernard Shaw, who disliked Shakespeare-thinking his works were not relevant to this time-period as they did not engage with social issues-and refers to the fact that Shakespeare is often known as 'the Bard'. <P> Edmond Malone was the first scholar to construct a tentative chronology of Shakespeare's plays in An Attempt to Ascertain the Order in Which the Plays attributed to Shakspeare were Written (1778), an essay published in the second edition of Samuel Johnson and George Steevens ' The Plays of William Shakespeare. Evidence: Richard II is usually seen as one of the 'lyrical plays', along with Love's Labour's Lost, Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer Night's Dream; four plays in which Shakespeare used rhymed iambic pentameter more than anywhere else in his career. <P> The first of Shakespeare’s plays to be printed in quarto was Titus Andronicus, in 1594. The earliest quartos were anonymous. Shakespeare’s name did not appear on a title-page until 1598, with Love’s Labour’s Lost. Until recently, scholars have been agreed that Shakespeare took no interest in the printing of his plays. Seventeen of Shakespeare’s plays are usually thought of as comedies: The Taming of the Shrew, created in about 1590-1591 or perhaps earlier. First printed in the first folio of 1623. Reprinted in quarto in 1631. The Two Gentlemen of Verona, created in about 1592-1593. <P> THE GLOBE Many of Shakespeare’s plays were first performed at the Globe, although his plays were performed at other theatres and many playwrights wrote for the Globe.Who built the first Globe?The first Globe was built by the company Shakespeare was in – the Lord Chamberlain’s Men. Other playwrights wrote for the Globe, including Ben Jonson, Thomas Dekker and John Fletcher. What happened to the first Globe?Disaster struck the Globe in 1613. On 29 June, at a performance of Shakespeare’s Henry VIII, some small cannons were fired. <P> Unfortunately, there is no definitive record of the chronology of Shakespeare’s plays – or even exactly how many he wrote! Although we know when the plays were printed, it doesn’t necessarily follow that this is the order the plays were produced in. However, What Was The First Play Shakespeare Wrote? is not an easy question to answer. <P> Answer: Shakespeare first play was a history play called Henry VI Part II and was first performed in 1590-1591. It is impossible to be sure of the exact order of the plays because no definitive record was made in Shakespeare’s time. <P> It is widely believed that the first play written by Shakespeare was Henry VI Part II, a history play, first performed in 1590-1591. However, What Was The First Play Shakespeare Wrote? is not an easy question to answer. <P> Nineteen of Shakespeare’s plays had appeared in quarto by 1622. In the following year the first folio added another 18. A handful of plays were excluded from the first folio, probably because they were known not to be wholly by Shakespeare. One of these, Pericles, is now accepted as his. Seventeen of Shakespeare’s plays are usually thought of as comedies: The Taming of the Shrew, created in about 1590-1591 or perhaps earlier. First printed in the first folio of 1623. Reprinted in quarto in 1631. The Two Gentlemen of Verona, created in about 1592-1593.

The purpose of this writing is to give the judges an introduction to you as a whole person, beyond the work you have done on the Senior Project. They will be able to see you as a young adult with goals, interests and opinions. <P> In May, Lieutenant Peter Puget, under Vancouver's orders, explored more remote western channels, while Vancouver surveyed south of Bainbridge Island's Restoration Point. George Vancouver's 1792 investigations of Puget Sound and environs were for the purpose of seeking scientific and commercial information. His principal assignment, however, was to arrange meetings with Spanish representatives in Nootka Sound on the west coast of Vancouver Island. He served for 25 years in the British Navy, and commanded the Discovery on her expedition to the North Pacific. In April 1792, George Vancouver entered the Strait of Juan de Fuca and commenced his exploration of Puget Sound. He named every island, mountain, waterway, and point of land in sight -- 75 in all. <P> By Ryan Ware On October 15, 2015 · Add Comment · In Archeology & Collections, News. Fort Vancouver entered the National Park Service in 1948 as Fort Vancouver National Monument. The fort acted to preserve the original Hudson’s Bay stockade of Fort Vancouver. Throughout the years the park was expanded. In 1961, the boundaries were enlarged and the park was renamed Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. In 2011 the army discontinued its operations at the East and South Vancouver Barracks, and in 2012 that area was transferred to the National Park Service as well. <P> Sir George Simpson was instrumental in establishing the fort, and Dr. John McLoughlin was its first Chief Factor (manager); a position he held for nearly 22 years. James Douglas spent nineteen years in Fort Vancouver; serving as Chief Accountant until 1834 when he was promoted to Chief Trader of the post. While the Hudson's Bay Company continued to operate out of Fort Vancouver, every year saw less and less fur trade and more and more settlers and U.S. Army warfare against the HBC's former customer base. <P> The OREGON TREATY of 1846 effectively terminated Fort Vancouver as Columbia district headquarters, and in 1849 it was superseded by Fort Victoria. The crown colony of Vancouver Island was also established in 1849 and Richard Blanshard, who became its first governor in 1850, resided at Fort Victoria. <P> Today, a full-scale replica of the fort, with internal buildings, has been constructed and is open to the public as Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. While the Hudson's Bay Company continued to operate out of Fort Vancouver, every year saw less and less fur trade and more and more settlers and U.S. Army warfare against the HBC's former customer base. <P> Named for Captain George Vancouver, the fort was located on the northern bank of the Columbia River in present-day Vancouver, Washington.

average cost of utilities in canada
|
<P> Answers. Best Answer: I do not know in regards to utility prices in Canada, however, in the US that would be considered low for my particular home. Our home is approximately 2500 sq. ft. all electric, but use a large wood stove and wood burning fireplaces in the winter as we live in the NE area. Our electric bill is $215.00 monthly, every month as we chose to be billed on a budget plan. It makes it easier for us to know exactly what the fixed cost is per month. <P> You’re definitely one of the lucky ones if you’re paying $800 a month in rent…the average one-bedroom rented for $1867 last year…and the average rent on a $450,000 Toronto home is around $2,000-$2,200. 1 Property taxes – How much you pay in property taxes will depend on the city-assessed value of your house. 2 For a house assessed at $447,090, the tax bill for 2012 would be $3,448 annually. <P> You have to consider the size of your apartment and the general climate. An average electric bill may be as low as $30 per month or as high as $100. Gas may cost, on average, anywhere from $40 to $150 and can fluctuate depending on the season. Trash. Although many apartments have an apartment complex trash can in which you can deposit your garbage, you’re still likely to be billed for pickup. If your complex follows average utility costs, you could expect to pay between $10 and $40 a month for trash pickup. <P> 1 Hydro – In our experience, the average hydro bill for a typical 3 bedroom Toronto home is $125-200 a month. 2 There are tons of ways you can bring your hydro rates down – click here for more information about conserving energy and time-of-use hydro rates. 3 Gas – Average monthly gas bills are around $125-150. 1 Property taxes – How much you pay in property taxes will depend on the city-assessed value of your house. 2 For a house assessed at $447,090, the tax bill for 2012 would be $3,448 annually. <P> The average Canadian household currently pays about $100 a month, before taxes, for electricity — though the provincial range is wide, from $68.75 in Montreal to $161 in Charlottetown. The costs will be borne by consumers, and the average household electricity bill will rise to more than $150. (Since 2000, by comparison, electricity rates have only nudged up 12 per cent after adjusting for inflation.). <P> Avg home in Calgary is ~$500,000. Average rent is $1,500 per month, will go up at end of summer break. Avg Salary (according to this site $5,660 before tax. Bullshit - $68,000 is in the top 10th percentile of earners in Canada.) Average salary is more like $42,000, which is barely enough to live here. If not insurance will cost upwards of $2,000 a year for minimum coverage to drive. For long haul or commercial driving, expect to pay $10,000 + per year to obtain insurance without experience. Public transit is acceptable, but not frequent or always reliable. <P> Average rental prices are quite similar in both cities, although Calgary is slightly more expensive on average than Edmonton. Two Bedroom Rentals. For a two bedroom dwelling, expect to pay from $800 to $1,500 per month, depending on location, size and type. For example, you’ll pay an average of about $1,200 for a two bedroom apartment in downtown Calgary. Three Bedroom Rentals. To rent a 3 bedroom dwelling, expect to pay from $1,200 to $2,500 a month. For example, you’ll pay an average of about $1,200 to $1,300 for a standard three bedroom townhouse in suburban Calgary. <P> In comparison, the total installed capacity of Canada was 111,000 MW in 2000. In 2010, the leading type of power generation by utilities in Canada is hydroelectricity, with a share of 63.7%. nuclear (15.0%), Coal (13.1%), natural gas (6.2%), wind (0.6%), fuel oil (0.5%), and wood (0.4%) follow. <P> Each year, the City of Edmonton conducts a survey of property taxes and utility charges for an average, single-detached house in major Canadian cities and municipalities in the Edmonton region. The survey is intended to compare the property tax and utility costs of owning a similar kind of house in different municipalities across Canada and with

what does an average bathroom remodel cost

<P> The mean is the average you're used to, where you add up all the numbers and then divide by the number of numbers. The median is the middle value in the list of numbers. To find the median, your numbers have to be listed in numerical order, so you may have to rewrite your list first. <P> 1 The range of a set of numbers is the highest number minus the lowest number. 2 So, in the set { 2,5,8,2,1,4,3] the highest number is 8 and the lowest number is 1, so the range is. 1 So, in the set { 2,5,8,2,1,4,3] the highest number is 8 and the lowest number is 1, so the range is. 2 If there are any negative numbers in the set, then you have to be really careful, because subtracting a negative number is the same thing as adding the positive number. 3 So, in the set. <P> Range (statistics). more ... The difference between the lowest and highest values. In {4, 6, 9, 3, 7} the lowest value is 3, and the highest is 9, so the range is 9 − 3 = 6. Range can also mean all the output values of a function. See: Range of a function. The Range (Statistics). Search :: Index :: About :: Contact :: Contribute :: Cite This Page :: Privacy. <P> From the Values. A function can be written as a list of values. {(5,3), (2,7), (1,-3), (-2,9)}. The range of this simple function is the second number from each pair, or the list of output values. In this case they are 3, 7 -3, 9. In the function example above, f(x) = x ^2, you also used values to determine the range. <P> Range: The range is the set of all possible output values (usually the variable y, or sometimes expressed as f(x)), which result from using a particular function. Definition. Domain: The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (often the x variable), which produce a valid output from <P> The range of these test scores is 21 points. Definition: The range of a set of data is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the set. In the problem above, the set of data consists of 7 test scores. We ordered the data from least to greatest before finding the range. We recommend that you do this, too. Summary: The range of a set of data is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the set. To find the range, first order the data from least to greatest. Then subtract the smallest value from the largest value in the set. <P> The range is the set of all possible values of a function for the values of the variable. For Statistical Data. The range is the difference between the greatest data value and the least data value of a set. To find the range of numbers you need to subtract the smallest listed value from the largest. *In a Cartesian coordinate system, the domain is measured along the x-axis and the range is along the y-axis. *If you have a set of numbers, it is the difference between the highest number and the lowest number. The range is the difference between the largest and smallest terms of the set of numbers. So to find the range find the largest number then find the smallest number and finall … y take the largest number from the smallest. For example, imagine the set of numbers is {2,8,9,5,10,20,1,31}.

which of the following is a function of the right hemisphere of the brain
|
<P> The lateralization of brain function refers to how some functions, or cognitive processes tend be more dominant in one hemisphere than the other. The medial longitudinal fissure separates the human brain into two distinct cerebral hemispheres, connected by the corpus callosum. If a specific region of the brain, or even an entire hemisphere, is injured or destroyed, its functions can sometimes be assumed by a neighboring region in the same hemisphere or the corresponding region in the other hemisphere, depending upon the area damaged and the patient's age. <P> Functions: Responsible for control of the right side of the body, and is the more academic and logical side of the brain. If you would split the brain right down the middle into two symmetrical, or equal parts, you would have a right and left hemisphere. Although equal in size, these two sides are not the same, and do not carry out the same functions. The left side of the brain is responsible for controlling the right side of the body. It also performs tasks that have to do with logic, such as in science and mathematics. <P> Right hemisphere brain damage (RHD) is damage to the right side of the brain. The brain is made up of two sides or hemispheres. Each hemisphere is responsible for different body functions and skills. In most people, the left side of the brain contains the person's language functions. The right side contributes to a number of functions, such as attention, memory, reasoning, and problem solving (all of which contribute to effective communication). 1 Stand to the person's right side and place objects to the person's right if he or she is experiencing left-side neglect. 2 Use calendars, clocks, and notepads to remind the person of important information. <P> Left and Right Brain Functioning. Each hemisphere of the brain functions like two different personalities with their own way of processing information. The left brain thinks methodically and likes to organize and categorize information from the environment. It connects new information with old, making sense of our world. What's important to know. Whatever that part of the brain which sends this type of information is the same part of the brain that receives it. And, for our purposes it's also important to know that the right hemisphere functioning is the first area of the brain to develop. The left hemisphere develops later. <P> The two hemispheres communicate information, such as sensory observations, to each other through the thick corpus callosum that connects them. The brain's right hemisphere controls the muscles on the left side of the body, while the left hemisphere controls the muscles on the right side of the human body. When you wink your right eye, that's the left side of your brain at work. Because of this criss-cross wiring, damage to one side of the brain affects the opposite side of the body. In general, the left hemisphere is dominant in language: processing what you hear and handling most of the duties of speaking <P> Cerebral Dominance. Each hemisphere of the brain is dominant for other behaviors. For example, it appears that the right brain is dominant for spatial abilities, face recognition, visual imagery and music. The left brain may be more dominant for calculations, math and logical abilities. <P> The vertebrate cerebrum (brain) is formed by two cerebral hemispheres that are separated by a groove, the medial longitudinal fissure. The brain can thus be described as being divided into left and right cerebral hemispheres. <P> Damage to the right hemisphere of the brain may lead to disruption of these cognitive processes, resulting in unique cognitive and communication problems. In many cases, the person with right brain damage is not aware of the problems that he or she is experiencing (anosognosia). 1 Stand to the person's right side and place objects to the person's right if he or she is experiencing left-side neglect. 2 Use calendars, clocks, and notepads to remind the person of important information. <P> Hemisphere Brain Functions. The brain is divided into two halves (hemispheres). Usually, the left half of the brain controls the right side of the body. The right half of the brain controls the left side of the body. LEFT BRAIN DAMAGE. Problems seen on the right side of the body. RIGHT BRAIN DAMAGE. Problems seen on the left side of the body. <P> Brain function lateralization is evident in the phenomena of right-or left-handedness and of right or left ear preference, but a person's preferred hand is not a clear indication of the location of brain function. If a specific region of the brain, or even an entire hemisphere, is injured or destroyed, its functions can sometimes be assumed by a neighboring region in the same hemisphere or the corresponding region in the other hemisphere, depending upon the area damaged and the patient's age.

normal heart rhythm is called
|
<P> 1 Restoring a normal heart rhythm. 2 This is called rhythm control. 3 Rhythm control allows the atria and ventricles to work together to efficiently pump blood to the body. 4 Treating any underlying disorder that's causing or raising the risk of AF—for example, hyperthyroidism (too much thyroid hormone). Another procedure to restore a normal heart rhythm is called maze surgery. For this procedure, the surgeon makes small cuts or burns in the atria. These cuts or burns prevent the spread of disorganized electrical signals. <P> 1 The electrical activity spreads through the walls of the atria and causes them to contract. 2 This forces blood into the ventricles. 3 The SA node sets the rate and rhythm of your heartbeat. 4 Normal heart rhythm is often called normal sinus rhythm because the SA (sinus) node fires regularly. <P> Heart Rhythm Disorders Definition and Overview. A heart rhythm disorder is an abnormal variation from the normal heartbeat. Heart rhythm disorders involve abnormalities of one or more of the following: heart rate, regularity of beats, sites where electrical impulses originate, or sequence of activation of heartbeats. Normally, the heart beats about 60 to 100 times a minute. This state is called normal sinus rhythm or normal rhythm or normal heartbeat.. Depending upon the needs of the body, it may beat faster (sinus tachycardia) due to stress or slower (sinus bradycardia) such as during sleep. <P> In normal sinus rhythm, a resting heart rate of below 60 bpm is called bradycardia and a rate of above 90 bpm is called tachycardia. <P> Normal Sinus Rhythm. Description. A normal heart rhythm is called normal sinus rhythm (NSR for short). An NSR will have a heart rate (this is the same as the pulse) between 50 and 100 beats per minute and a normal impulse formation from the SA node (P wave). Also, all the waveforms must be of a normal shape with no ST changes. In children, normal heart rate ranges are much higher. Infants to 1 year have a normal range to 180 beats per minute, 1-3 years to 150 beats per minute, 4-10 years to 130 beats per minute and 110 beats per minute to age 16. <P> In the above example, the rate varies slightly from 72-75 beats per minute, the PR interval is .16 seconds, the QRS is .08 seconds and the QT interval is .34 seconds. Also, all the wave forms are normal. Each individual’s normal resting heart rate will vary, and can range from 40 to 120, higher in young children. Also, all the waveforms must be of a normal shape with no ST changes. In children, normal heart rate ranges are much higher. Infants to 1 year have a normal range to 180 beats per minute, 1-3 years to 150 beats per minute, 4-10 years to 130 beats per minute and 110 beats per minute to age 16. <P> Sinus rhythm: The normal regular rhythm of the heart set by the natural pacemaker of the heart called the sinoatrial (or sinus) node. Sinus arrhythmia refers to the normal increase in heart rate that occurs during inspiration (when you breathe in). This is a normal response and is more accentuated in children than adults. Sinus tachycardia refers to a fast heartbeat (tachycardia) because of rapid firing of the sinoatrial ( <P> The normal heart rhythm (normal sinus rhythm) shows the electrical activity in the heart is following the normal pathway. The rhythm is regular and the node is normal (about 50 to 100 beats per minute). Tachycardia: fast heart rhythm (greater than 100 beats per minute). <P> Abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias). Arrhythmias are abnormal beats. The term arrhythmia refers to any change from the normal sequence of electrical impulses, causing abnormal heart rhythms. Arrhythmias may be completely harmless or life-threatening.

how many sq feet in an acre
|
<P> www.1howmany.com. Example How Many Feet in an Acre. Units of Measure / How Many Feet in an Acre. When we are talking about how many feet are in one acre 1, of course, we mean square feet 2, because acres and square feet are units of area and a foot is a length unit. Everybody can imagine an area of a square foot, but it is not so easy to visualize an acre. A good example comes from sport <P> Step 3. Determine the number of acres you wish to calculate into square feet. Let's use our example number of 37.5 acres. Multiply the number of acres you wish to calculate into square feet by 43,560---the number of square feet in an acre. In our example, we would multiply 37.5 times 43,560 for a result of 1,633,500. Divide the total number of square feet by 1.000002 if you want to be extremely precise. <P> The answer is 43560. We assume you are converting between square foot and acre. You can view more details on each measurement unit: square feet or acre. The SI derived unit for area is the square meter. 1 square meter is equal to 10.7639104167 square feet, or 0.000247105381467 acre. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. <P> An acre is a measure of land area in Imperial units or U.S. customary units. It is equal to 43 560 square feet, 4840 square yards, or 160 square rods. The precise meaning of this depends on the exact definition adopted for a foot: the international acre is 4 046.856 422 4 m (for the UK, see). You can view more details on each measurement unit: square feet or acre. The SI derived unit for area is the square meter. 1 square meter is equal to 10.7639104167 square feet, or 0.000247105381467 acre. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. <P> It is important to realise that an acre can be measured in any shape-from rectangles to circles or even hexagons-so long as the total area of land is 43,560 square feet. The most common shape for an acre is 1 furlong by 1 chain, or 660 feet by 66 feet. <P> Alternatively, you may use the converters below to convert any other values. 1 Acre = 43 560 Square Feet. Acre is an imperial and US customary system area unit. In metric system, it's replaced by hectare. The abbreviation is ac. Square foot is an imperial and US customary area unit. In metric system, it's replaced by square meters (metres). The abbreviations are sq ft and ft 2 . <P> The acre is a unit of land area used in the imperial and US customary systems. It is defined as the area of 1 chain (22 yards) by 1 furlong (220 yards), which is exactly equal to 1⁄640 of a square mile, approximately 4,046.856 m 2, or about 40% of a hectare. One acre equals 0.0015625 square miles, 4,840 square yards, 43,560 square feet or about 4,047 square metres (0.405 hectares) (see below). <P> Now that we know a bit about acres and square feet, we can move to conversion of these units and find out how many square feet there are in an acre. One US customary acre is equivalent to 43 560 square feet, 4840 square yards, or about 4047 square meters. There are also some other types of acres, used in various countries: Irish acre (7843 yd), Roman acre (1260 m), Cheshire acre (10240 yd), etc. <P> There are 43,560 square feet in one acre. An acre is a unit of area. 640 acres equal a square mile. Hence, it is 1/640 of a square mile. Since a square mile contains 2 … 7,878,400 square feet, an acre is 27,878,400 divided by 640, which is 43,560 square feet. Remember: an acre can be converted to SQUARE feet, not plain (linear) feet. Square feet and feet are not the same units. A foot is unit of distance. <P> There are 43,560 square feet in a acre; this is 4,840 square yards. You can find a conversion calculator at http://www.unitconversion.org/area/acres-to-square-foots-conversion.html Originally, the size of an acre was approximately the amount of land an ox could plow in a day.

what type of hypersensitivity reaction is rheumatoid arthritis
|
<P> Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity Type I. Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity Type I, is also called immediate hypersensitivity reaction where the reaction takes place in the skin or eczema, eyes as conjunctivitis, gastrointestinal tract, on bronchopulmonary tissues as asthma, etc. Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity Type IV. Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity Type IV is also called mediated or delayed hypersensitivity reaction where the reaction takes place on the skin. This is termed so because the reaction takes two to three days to develop. <P> • 3 involve antibody- • Type I (immediate): mediated by IgE (Mast Cells)• Type II: mediated by IgG or IgM• Type III (immune complex disease): IgG & complement • One involves antigen specific cells. • Type IV: Delayed type hypersensitivity, cell-mediated immune memory response. • Immune complex hypersensitivity• The reaction may be general or may involve individual organs including skin, kidneys, lungs, blood vessels, joints (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis) or other organs. <P> Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity Type III is called immune complex hypersensitivity reaction where the reaction takes place in the organs like the skin, kidney, blood vessels, lungs, and in the joints too. Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity Type IV. Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity Type IV is also called mediated or delayed hypersensitivity reaction where the reaction takes place on the skin. This is termed so because the reaction takes two to three days to develop. <P> Symptoms develop 3 to 10 hours after the immune complex forms. ASPERGILLOSIS, SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS (SLE) , GLOMERULONEPHRITIS, polyarteritis and other forms of VASCULITIS, and RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS are type III hypersensitivity reactions. Symptoms and Diagnostic Path. Symptoms vary with the type and severity of the hypersensitivity reaction. Itching and skin rash or URTICARIA (hives) are common with type I hypersensitivity reactions. Symptoms may involve the airways (allergic asthma) or gastrointestinal tract (food allergies). <P> What is Hypersensitivity reaction – Type III. Hypersensitivity means that the body responds to a particular substance (called allergens) in an exaggerated fashion, where it does not happen in normal circumstances. There are 4 types of hypersensitivity reaction, type I, II, III and IV. They are different in terms of the disease manifestation and pathological processes. However, only type III hypersensitivity reaction will be discussed here. In type III hypersensitivity, soluble antibodies bind to antigens to form immune complexes in the blood. These complexes travel through the blood stream and get deposited in various organs. Hence this can occur in many parts of the body. Generally, common sites of deposition include: 1 skin. 2 kidney. 3 joints. <P> Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity is a state of opposite reaction where the immune system of a body attacks the body cells as an alien substance. Rheumatoid arthritis on the other hand is an autoimmune disease where the joints of the bones are affected. Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity Type IV. Rheumatoid arthritis hypersensitivity Type IV is also called mediated or delayed hypersensitivity reaction where the reaction takes place on the skin. This is termed so because the reaction takes two to three days to develop. <P> Presentation [edit]. Type III hypersensitivity occurs when there is an excess of antigen, leading to small immune complexes being formed that do not fix complement and are not cleared from the circulation. It involves soluble antigens that are not bound to cell surfaces (as opposed to those in type II hypersensitivity). When these antigens bind antibodies, immune complexes of different sizes form. Large complexes can be cleared by macrophages but macrophages have difficulty in the disposal of small immune complexes. These immune complexes insert themselves into small blood vessels, joints, and glomeruli, causing symptoms.

what is colpopexy
|
<P> The goal of laparoscopic colpopexy is to re-suspend the vagina and associated pelvic organs through the key-hole incisions. In certain circumstances, a simultaneous hysterectomy, bladder suspension, or rectocele repair may be required, all of which can be accomplished through a vaginal approach. A Johns Hopkins Medicine answered. Laparoscopic colpopexy is a minimally invasive surgical technique to treat pelvic organ prolapse, which is when the vagina and the surrounding organs lose their support and fall from their normal positions. <P> Laparoscopic Abdominal Sacral Colpopexy. The abdominal sacral colpopexy is performed in patients with vaginal vault prolapse. Laparoscopic abdominal sacral colpopexy is performed using several small incisions. A synthetic mesh is used to support the vagina to the sacral promontory inside the pelvis. Prior to surgery you will be asked to do a bowel prep and a clear liquid diet <P> Sacral colpopexy is a surgical procedure designed for correction of prolapse of the vagina. It is an ideal procedure for those women who are sexually active but who have total prolapse of the vaginal canal. Prolapse of the vagina can occur following a hysterectomy or with the uterus in place. <P> A colpopexy is a common occurrence in women who have had a hysterectomy. Vaginal prolapse might occur in women as a result of menopause. A vaginal prolapse may occur as a result of childbirth. A colpopexy is done to reposition a woman's vagina. A hysterectomy is a surgical procedure in which the uterus is removed. In most colpopexy procedures, the vagina is sutured to the sacrospinous ligament in order to hold it in place. Patients should receive plenty of rest following a colpopexy. A sacral colpopexy is an invasive procedure that involves an incision in the abdominal wall <P> Sacro-colpopexy is a surgical procedure in which mesh is used to suspend the uterus / the vaginal vault to the sacrum. What are the benefits of laparoscopic sacro-colpopexy? The benefits of laparoscopic sacro-colpopexy include those seen in laparoscopic pelvic floor repair-high success rates (over 90%), good anatomical restoration, little post-operative pain, reduced risk of painful vaginal scars and avoidance of vaginal strictures. <P> Practice Essentials. Sacrocolpopexy (sacral colpopexy) is a surgical technique for repairing pelvic organ prolapse. Reconstruction is achieved with an open abdominal technique or with the use of minimally invasive techniques. Specifically, it is intended to address apical or vaginal vault prolapse in women. Reconstruction is achieved using an open abdominal technique or with the use of minimally invasive surgery, such as laparoscopy or robotic-assisted surgery. <P> Sacrocolpopexy (sacral colpopexy) is a surgical technique to repair pelvic organ prolapse.

what are duffy antigens
|
<P> Genetic testing and malaria resistance (Duffy antigen). Malaria is one of the most common infectious diseases, infecting about 200 million people annually. It is widespread in tropical and subtropical regions, including parts of the Americas, Asia and Africa. As there are no antigens on the surface of red blood cells, through which the parasite infects them, the infection with this parasite is not possible. The vast majority Caucasians (whites) are Duffy-positive and the absence of Duffy antigen is more common in Africans and inhabitants of Papua New Guinea. <P> Duffy positive people have these antigens, while blood cells of Duffy negative people are absent of these antigens. Plasmodium vivax needs Duffy proteins to enter the red blood cells and subsequently develop the infection. As there are no antigens on the surface of red blood cells, through which the parasite infects them, the infection with this parasite is not possible. The vast majority Caucasians (whites) are Duffy-positive and the absence of Duffy antigen is more common in Africans and inhabitants of Papua New Guinea. <P> Plasmodium then forms a protein called PvDVP that binds to a specific antigen, called Duffy antigen. Such antigens are encountered quite commonly in our red blood cells and they form the Duffy antigen system, which is similar to the AB0 blood group system. As there are no antigens on the surface of red blood cells, through which the parasite infects them, the infection with this parasite is not possible. The vast majority Caucasians (whites) are Duffy-positive and the absence of Duffy antigen is more common in Africans and inhabitants of Papua New Guinea. <P> Duffy Antigens Most common: Fya and Fyb.Present at 6 weeks of gestation, well developed at birth –anti-Fy can cause hemolytic disease of newbornDuffy antigens can be destroyed by enzymes such as ficin, papain, bromelain, chymotrypsin, ZZAPWhen compared to Rh or Kell antigens, Duffy antigens are not very immunogenic. Fy3 antigen is part of the Fya and Fyb antigen (one of the 3 extracelluar loops)Fy4: 1973 a Fy(a+b+) black made anti-Fy4 reacted with all Fy(a-b-) blacks, Fy(a+b-), and Fy(a-b+) blacks, but not with Fy(a+b+) blacks and not with whites of any Duffy type. Fy(a-b-) blacks carry Fy4Fy4 antigens. <P> The Duffy blood group antigen serves not only as blood group antigen, but also as a receptor for a family of proinflammatory cytokines termed chemokines, and as a receptor for Plasmodium vivax malaria parasites. Individuals with the Duffy-negative phenotype are resistant to P. vivax invasion, and the molecular mechanism that gives rise to the phenotype Fy(a-b -) in black individuals has been associated with a point mutation - 33TC expressed in homozigosity in the FYB allele [5]. <P> Antigen-carrying molecules. Glycoprotein that is a red cell receptor. The Duffy glycoprotein is a receptor that binds cytokines released during inflammation. It also binds the malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax, and RBCs that lack the Duffy Fy a and Fy b antigens are resistant to invasion. Even Fy(a-b-) individuals who do not produce Duffy antigens on their RBCs do express Duffy antigens elsewhere, including endothelial cells that line blood vessels, epithelial cells of kidney collecting ducts, lung alveoli, and Purkinje cells of the cerebellum. <P> Plasmodium vivax (Pv) is a major cause of human malaria and is increasing in public health importance compared with falciparum malaria. Pv is unique among human malarias in that invasion of erythrocytes is almost solely dependent on the red cell's surface receptor, known as the Duffy blood-group antigen (Fy). Because of the critical role played by the Duffy antigen in P. vivax erythrocyte invasion, the corresponding parasite ligand, the Duffy binding protein (PvDBP), which is expressed at the parasite's cellular surface upon invasion, is a major vaccine candidate (10). <P> The Duffy glycoprotein is a receptor for chemicals that are secreted by blood cells during inflammation. It also happens to be a receptor for Plasmodium vivax, a parasite that invades red blood cells (RBCs) and causes malaria. RBCs that lack the Duffy antigens are relatively resistant to invasion by P. vivax. Even Fy(a-b-) individuals who do not produce Duffy antigens on their RBCs do express Duffy antigens elsewhere, including endothelial cells that line blood vessels, epithelial cells of kidney collecting ducts, lung alveoli, and Purkinje cells of the cerebellum. <P> The antigens of the Duffy Blood Group System, in addition to incompatibilities in transfusions and hemolytic disease of the newborn, are of great interest in medicine due to their association with the invasion of red blood cells by the parasite Plasmodium vivax. (1). The antigens of the Duffy Blood Group System, in addition to involvement in transfusion incompatibility and hemolytic disease of the newborn, are of great interest in medicine because of their association with the invasion of red blood cells (RBCs) by the parasite P. vivax.

what are plant cell plastids
|
<P> Plastids are cell organelles that store specific things found only in plant cell but absent in animal cells. In plant cell they are found in the cytoplasm. Plastids are spherical or ovoid in shape. They are involved in manufacture and storage of certain important chemical compounds. The term plastids was coined by Schimper in 1885 and was derived from a Greek word ' plastikas' which means formed or mou lded. <P> Plant cells contain cell structures like cell wall, plastids, and large vacuoles. Cell wall provide plant cells rigidity and structural support and cell to cell interaction. Plastids help in storage of plant products. <P> Plant chloroplasts develop mainly in cells located in plant leaves. Chloroplasts and other plastids develop from cells called proplastids. Proplastids are immature, undifferentiated cells that develop into different types of plastids. A proplastid that develops into a chloroplast, only does so in the presence of light. <P> Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and other eukaryotic organisms that conduct photosynthesis. The word chloroplast is derived from the Greek words chloros, which means green, and plast, which means form or entity. Chloroplasts are members of a class of organelles known as plastids. <P> Plastids are sub-cellular self-replicating organelles present in all living plant cells, and the exclusive site of many important biological processes, the most fundamental being the photosynthetic fixation of CO2 within chloroplasts, a process which is vital to life on earth. <P> Plant cells: Plastids: As previously mentioned, plastids are doubled membraned 'sac-like' organelles, generally involved in either the manufacture or storage of food. They include chloroplasts, chromoplasts and leucoplasts. All develop from proplastids: simple, generally colorless undifferentiated plastids.. <P> Plastids are found in plant and algae cells that use photosynthesis to manufacture and store food. Chloroplasts, chromoplasts, and leucoplasts are the most common plastids. <P> Organelles, called plastids, are the main sites of photosynthesis in eukaryotic cells. Chloroplasts, as well as any other pigment containing cytoplasmic organelles that enables the harvesting and conversion of light and carbon dioxide into food and energy, are plastids.

<P> Smell depends on sensory receptors that respond to airborne chemicals. In humans, these chemoreceptors are located in the olfactory epithelium — a patch of tissue about the size of a postage stamp located high in the nasal cavity. The olfactory epithelium is made up of three kinds of cells: <P> 1 The cilia of the sensory neurons are immersed in a layer of mucus. 2 Odorant molecules (molecules that we can smell) dissolve in the mucus and. 3 bind to receptors on the cilia. 4 These are 7-pass transmembrane proteins. 5 Binding of the odorant activates a G protein coupled to the receptor on its cytoplasmic side. <P> The sense of smell, just like the sense of taste, is a chemical sense. They are called chemical senses because they detect chemicals in the environment, with the difference being that smell works at dramatically larger distances than that of taste. <P> The olfactory nerve is the cranial nerve located closest to the front of the brain, and is therefore called cranial nerve I..

what is colombard
|
<P> In South Africa it is widely planted, although some may call it Colombar, a name which is unique to South Africa, and which has helped to distinguish wines from this country from similar wine products from France or Australia. No matter what it is called, Colombard is a very popular wine to grow. Its origins lie in the South West of France, and it was mostly used as a base wine on which other white wines could be mixed. This has lead to its decline in the country as more wine growers produce Chenin Blanc for that purpose. This is made from 100% Colombard grapes, and has a light honey taste with a strong hint of guava and tropical fruits. The sweetness of the wine, plus the golden-green colour of its current maturity, mean that the wine is suitable with a light lunch, or as an aperitif. <P> Colombard. Colombard is one of the grapes used in both Cognac and Armagnac. As a table wine, it is hugely popular in California, where it was once known as French Colombard. Today, French growers are producing light, fragrant whites of their own. Colombard makes delightfully crisp, dry whites with a leafy, spring blossom fragrance and fresh green apple flavors. <P> Colombard is a white French wine grape variety that is the offspring of Gouais blanc and Chenin blanc. This makes the grape the sibling of the Armagnac Meslier-Saint-Francois françois and the nearly Extinct cognac Grape balzac. blanc <P> Colombard is also planted in South Africa, where it is known as Colombar. A lot of this is used in the production of brandy, but as in California, it is also used to make bulk wine. At this time, Colombard was mostly used for brandy production, and many producers considered Ugni Blanc to be a more attractive prospect for this end. <P> Colombard and Chardonnay blends. Which is where the highly-acidic Colombard comes in. The neutrality of this grape means that it offers little in the way of flavors but can provide some structure to the Chardonnay, making a wine that combines a fruit-driven palate with a balance of acidity. As producers begin to experiment with Chardonnay blends, they tend to use the other varieties at their disposal, and so Colombard is used mostly in regions where it is widespread. <P> Colombard. Colombard is one of those wines which are often drunk but rarely recognised, and that is a great pity because the grape and wine are both exceptional, and can produce very fruity, sweet liquids that make it delicious as a dinner accompaniment, or simply as an evening glass of wine. This is made from 100% Colombard grapes, and has a light honey taste with a strong hint of guava and tropical fruits. The sweetness of the wine, plus the golden-green colour of its current maturity, mean that the wine is suitable with a light lunch, or as an aperitif. <P> Colombard Wine. Colombard is one of the world's great blending grapes, most famously used alongside Ugni Blanc and Folle Blanche in the production of Cognac and Armagnac (see Colombard – Folle – Ugni wines). At this time, Colombard was mostly used for brandy production, and many producers considered Ugni Blanc to be a more attractive prospect for this end. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Colombard (also known as French Colombard in North America) is a white French wine grape variety that is the offspring of Gouais blanc and Chenin blanc. This grape is mainly grown in California to provide backbone, due to its natural acidic character, for white jug wine blends. It is also widely grown in South Africa where it is known as Colombar, the wine gives lovely flavours of Guava, and to a lesser extent in Australia. <P> History of the grape: Colombard is believed to be a crossing of Gouais Blanc and Chenin Blanc, although horticultural DNA tests have not been confirmed. It is believed to originate in the Charente region of France, where it was used as a primary base for Cognac and Armagnac brandy.

what is thinking psychology
|
<P> Psychologists explore concepts such as perception, cognition, attention, emotion, intelligence, phenomenology, motivation, brain functioning, personality, behavior, and interpersonal relationships, including psychological resilience, family resilience, and other areas. Psychology is the study of mind and behavior. It is an academic discipline and an applied science which seeks to understand individuals and groups by establishing general principles and researching specific cases. <P> I had the pleasure of talking to the team about the role that language plays in the development of children's thinking. In my view, we don't think hard enough about what we mean by this term 'thinking'. And if we're not clear enough, the age-old question of how language is involved in cognition becomes very messy. It seems to me that there are two common usages of the term <P> Thought can refer to the ideas or arrangements of ideas that result from thinking, the act of producing thoughts, or the process of producing thoughts. Although thought is a fundamental human activity familiar to everyone, there is no generally accepted agreement as to what thought is or how it is created. Somehow, thoughts arise in the mind from the product of subconscious brain processing. Thinking allows humans to make sense of, interpret, represent or model the world they experience, and to make predictions about that world. It is therefore helpful to an organism with needs, objectives, and desires as it makes plans or otherwise attempts to accomplish those goals. <P> Cognitive psychology focuses on the way humans process information, looking at how we treat information that comes in to the person (what behaviorists would call stimuli), and how this treatment leads to responses.

Cognitive psychology is also a reductionist approach. <P> I would hold that this view of thinking is the one that makes the most sense to us, because it is the one that most closely matches our experience. In the Radiolab show, I suggest that we can get a handle on what thinking is by introspecting on this experience. In my view, we don't think hard enough about what we mean by this term 'thinking'.

when is the best time to cut back shrubs
|
<P> The best time to prune or trim trees and shrubs is during the late winter while they’re dormant. Pruning during the dormant season is ideal because: 1 The wounds heal faster, keeping the plant strong. 2 There is less risk of disease or pest infestation. <P> The best time to prune deciduous shrubs is during late winter and early spring before the new growth begins, as cited by the Iowa State University Extension. <P> The best time to prune most bushes and shrubs is in late winter or early spring—usually during the later half of March or the beginning of April—before new growths have formed after the dormant period. <P> Prune shade trees such as oak, linden, and ash when they are dormant in winter. It's easiest to see the branching structure at this time of year, and you're less likely to spread diseases through the pruning wounds. As with nonblooming shrubs, avoid pruning them late in summer. <P> Pruning is also a good method for training a plant to grow in a certain direction or shape. Although bushes and shrubs can be cut back at almost any time during the year, there are better and worse times recommended for pruning. <P> For this reason, it is best to begin pruning plants while they are young to encourage a compact growth habit. Prune young hedge plants (one to two years old) to within 12 inches of ground level. This procedure is called heading back, where stems are shortened and new growth is promoted below the cut. <P> Bushes and shrubs should ideally be pruned every year. However, gardeners should take a three year approach to cutting back overgrown bushes and shrubs before pruning the entire plant annually. During the first year, remove one-third of the biggest and older branches starting at the bottom of the plant. <P> Deciduous Shrubs. The best time to prune deciduous shrubs is during late winter and early spring before the new growth begins, as cited by the Iowa State University Extension. Avoid pruning in late summer, as the tender new growth will be susceptible to cold and frost damage. <P> Renewal pruning means cutting the plants back to within 6 to 12 inches of ground level. In this instance, timing is more important than technique. The best time to prune severely is before spring growth begins.

how long for vitamin c to work
|
<P> A Stacy Wiegman, PharmD, Pharmacy, answered. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, which means that it will dissolve in water. It works as an antioxidant, which means that it helps to prevent the growth of free radicals, problematic molecules that damage cells. <P> Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid or L-ascorbate, is an essential vitamin to the human body. It could very well be one of the safest and most important vitamins you could take on a daily basis. Vitamin C is most known as the first thing people go for whenever they have a cold. <P> The best way to take vitamin C supplements is 2 - 3 times per day, with meals, depending on the dosage. Some studies suggest that adults should take 250 - 500 mg twice a day for any benefit. Talk to your doctor before taking more than 1,000 mg of vitamin C on a daily basis and before giving vitamin C to a child. Daily intake of dietary vitamin C (according to the National Academy of Sciences) is listed below. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, meaning that your body doesn't store it. You have to get what you need from food, including citrus fruits, broccoli, and tomatoes. <P> Read on to learn about all the different things that Vitamin C does, a little more about how it does them (I promised I've translated as much as possible into regular language, though this post is definitely of a higher level than most), and what to look for in a Vitamin C preparation. Vitamin C as Anti-Oxidant. As I understand it, most of the Vitamin C in our bodies is in the Ascorbic Acid form (top right). If it accepts an electron (as part of being an anti-oxidant) it becomes the Ascorbate Ion. <P> Meaning, you can drink all the OJ you want, just because there is more Vitamin C in your system doesn't mean that your body will transport it to your skin or that your skin will even work to take up more of the available Vitamin C from the blood. As I understand it, most of the Vitamin C in our bodies is in the Ascorbic Acid form (top right). If it accepts an electron (as part of being an anti-oxidant) it becomes the Ascorbate Ion. <P> To the origional poster: Duration-Expect to be using the vitamin c for a minimum of 6 days, bleeding rarely begins before then. Vitamin C should not be taken for more than 10 to 14 days at a time. 14 days maximum. Some women have used vitamin C longer than that, as long as 30 days, however you should know that taking large amounts of ascorbic acid over an extended period of time will increase your risk for getting kidney stones. show more this is my fourth day using vitamin c and im nervous that it doesn't work, how long exactly does it take to work im only 3 days behind in my period and I never missed a day so until now I haven't had my period and satrting the next day i missed it I satrted to use Vitamin C ... <P> Ester C, ascorbyl palmitate, and tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate are all pretty stable, but they are not as potent or effective as l-ascorbic acid. If you make your own vitamin C product with l-ascorbic acid, it is essential that you make a new batch every day so the vitamin C stays fresh. If you are going to use a vitamin C product, it's best to use one in a form your skin can use with the least amount of irritation. Vitamin C Stability and Effectiveness One of the bad things about Vitamin C is that it oxidizes very easily. When a C serum oxidizes, it turns yellow or orange and looses its effectiveness. <P> Vitamin C has plays many roles in your body such as a coenzyme, antioxidant, and immune system booster. Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, acts as a coenzyme that is needed to synthesize and use certain amino acids. In particular, vitamin C is needed to make collagen, the most abundant protein in your body. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, which means that it will dissolve in water. It works as an antioxidant, which means that it helps to prevent the growth of free radicals, problematic molecules that damage cells. <P> Overview. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, meaning that your body doesn't store it. You have to get what you need from food, including citrus fruits, broccoli, and tomatoes. You need vitamin C for the growth and repair of tissues in all parts of your body. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, meaning that your body doesn't store it.

what does the myelin sheath do in a nerve cell
|
<P> Depending on the location, different glial cell types make myelin in a different manner. Schwann cells make myelin in the peripheral nervous system (PNS: nerves) and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS: brain and spinal cord). In the PNS, one Schwann cell forms a single myelin sheath (Figure 1A). The length of the myelin sheath along the axon is approximately 1 mm in the PNS. Between two adjacent myelin segments, there are approximately 1-μm-long gaps called nodes of Ranvier (Figure 1A and E). At the nodes, the axon is exposed to the extracellular space. <P> Each neuron is made up of a cell body and an axon (the extension of the cell body that carries messages). Most of the axons in the central nervous system are wrapped in myelin, a substance rich in lipids (fatty substances) and proteins. CNS myelin is produced by special cells called oligodendrocytes. PNS myelin is produced by Schwann cells. The two types of myelin are chemically different, but they both perform the same function — to promote efficient transmission of a nerve impulse along the axon. <P> Myelin Function. By Sally Robertson, BSc. The myelin sheath is a protective covering that surrounds fibres called axons, the long thin projections that extend from the main body of a nerve cell or neuron. This sheath is composed of protein and lipids. Damaged myelin. Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune condition where the body’s own immune cells attack this myelin sheath. T cells strip the myelin from the nerve fibers it protects, meaning the fibers are left exposed and uninsulated. <P> T cells from the body's own immune system attack and destroy the myelin sheath Click to view larger image. In multiple sclerosis, T cells from the body's own immune system attack and destroy the myelin sheath, leaving the nerve cell fibers unprotected. In multiple sclerosis (MS), the body's immune system T cells attack the myelin sheath that protects the nerve fibers. The T cells either partially or completely strip the myelin off the fibers, leaving the nerves unprotected and uninsulated. <P> The myelin sheath is a layer of fat and protein that covers the axon of a neuron, or nerve cell. The axon, which is a long, thin projection, is designed to carry electrical signals from a neuron to other cells. <P> Myelin is a fatty white substance that surrounds the axon dielectric (electrically insulating) material that forms a layer, the myelin sheath, usually around only the axon of a neuron. It is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system. It is an outgrowth of a type of glial cell. The production of the myelin sheath is called myelination. In humans, myelination begins in the 14th week of fetal development, although little myelin exists in the brain at the time of birth. <P> 1 A long, thin axon. 2 The axon is covered by a myelin sheath. 3 The axon passes information to the next neuron or other cell in the body. 4 A myelin sheath. 5 The axons have a protective covering called myelin. 6 Without myelin, the brain and spinal cord can't communicate with each other or with the nerves in the rest of the body. 1 Dendrites. 2 The dendrites receive signals from other neurons. 3 A long, thin axon. 4 The axon is covered by a myelin sheath. 5 The axon passes information to the next neuron or other cell in the body. 6 A myelin sheath. 7 <P> The myelin sheath is a covering of the neuron (nerve cell) made by schwann cells wrapping themselves around the neuron down the length of the axon. The main purpose of the myelin sheath is to speed up the conduction velocity of nerve impulses. While there is an electrical charge involved in signals along nerves, it's not the same as a current along a wire. Instead, small channels in the membrane of the neruon open up, and ions flood through.

who is service of process central authority in australia
|
<P> Each country that signs the Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoption is required to have a central authority to implement its standards. Our department is the Australian Central Authority for intercountry adoption under the convention. <P> In contrast to the Hague. Service Convention, however, a Request for service under the Additional Protocol must. bear the signature and seal of the court where the United States action is pending and of. the United States Central Authority, acting through its contractor PFI. The Office of International Judicial Assistance (OIJA), acting through its contractor Process Forwarding International (PFI), also known as ABC Legal, plays a very limited role with regard to requests for service of documents coming from the United States to be served upon persons or entities in foreign countries. <P> Japan ratified the Convention of 15 November 1965 on the Service Abroad of Judicial and Extrajudicial Documents in Civil or Commercial Matters, also called the Hague Service Convention, on May 28, 1970. The Convention’s provisions entered into force in Japan the following July 27. Articles 10(b) and 10(c): Japan objects to direct service by judicial officials and “interested persons” under the Convention. LLS can assist you with service and can help you understand and meet the requirements for service of process in Japan. <P> The Australian Government Attorney-General's Department is the Australian Central Authority for intercountry adoption under the Convention. As Australia is a federation, a Central Authority has also been designated in each State and Territory. The way in which an adoption is finalised depends on the process used in the country of origin and the procedures of the State or Territory. For some of Australia’s intercountry adoption programs, a final adoption order or decision is made in the country of origin. <P> Under this 5-year contract, ABC Legal shall perform all duties of the United States Central Authority with respect to process service. ABC shall hold the only official certificate in conformity with formal service under the Hague Service Convention. ABC Legal shall manage all formal service of process for the U.S. on judicial documents under the following treaties and conventions: Hague Service Convention, Inter-American Convention, and Letters Rogatory. The Fee is $95 for service of process within the USA and its Territories. <P> While all Hague Service Convention member countries maintain a national Central Authority for service of process, each of Canada’s provincial and territorial governments also maintains a Central Authority for Hague purposes (the United States, in contrast, has but a single Central Authority). The Convention of 15 November 1965 on the Service Abroad of Judicial and Extrajudicial Documents in Civil or Commercial Matters, also called the Hague Service Convention, entered into force in Canada on May 1, 1989. <P> The Hague Service Convention established a more simplified means for parties to effect service in other contracting states. Under the convention, each contracting state is required to designate a central authority to accept incoming requests for service. Upon receiving the request, the central authority in the receiving state arranges for service in a manner permitted within the receiving state, typically through a local court. Once service is effected, the central authority sends a certificate of service to the judicial officer who made the request. Parties are required to use three standardised forms: a request for service, a summary of the proceedings (similar to a summons), and a certificate of <P> Adoption Australia is a national service and central point of contact for people at all stages of the intercountry adoption process including those considering applying to adopt a child from overseas. For further information, go to http://www.intercountryadoption.gov.au/about/. The way in which an adoption is finalised depends on the process used in the country of origin and the procedures of the State or Territory. For some of Australia’s intercountry adoption programs, a final adoption order or decision is made in the country of origin. <P> The Hague Service Convention provision for service by a Central Authority is the exclusive method for service of process in the Federal Republic of Germany. As of June 28, 1978, the United States will not charge a fee for service of judicial documents which it receives from any State Party to the Convention which does not impose a charge for service of documents sent from the United States for service under the Convention.

similarities between protozoans and algae
|
<P> Among them are algae and protozoa. Algae and protozoa belong to the Protista kingdom. Actually, there are four other kingdoms in which all organisms are grouped into. The other four kingdoms are: Monera, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. Protozoans and some algae species are able to eat food. And lastly, most algae and some protozoans are able to do the process of photosynthesis. Algae come in different colors, shapes, and sizes. Most algae look green in color and slimy. You can find algae near bodies of water or other humid places <P> The protist kingdom includes protozoa and algae. (Two groups of fungi with similar characteristics to protozoa, myxomycetes and oomycetes, have been classified as protists.). Unicellular protozoa and algae are unicellular eukaryotes. Pluricellular algae are also eukaryotes of simple structure. Protists are believed to be the phylogenetic ancestors of the living organisms of the other eukaryotic kingdoms (fungi, animals and plants). 1 Protists Review-Image Diversity: protozoa algae. <P> Answers. Best Answer: Classification Algal protists and protozoans are both classified under the Protista kingdom in the Eukarya domain. This means they are both unicellular, meaning these organisms consist of only one cell. Algal protists are plant-like in that they use photosynthesis to turn light from the sun into energy. Protozoans are more animal-like by ingesting food through their membranes. There are a variety of protozoans, and they eat in a variety of ways. <P> Nutrition One of the primary differences between algal protists and protozoans is the way they ingest food. Algal protists are plant-like in that they use photosynthesis to turn light from the sun into energy. Protozoans are more animal-like by ingesting food through their membranes. There are a variety of protozoans, and they eat in a variety of ways. <P> Algae can either be unicellular or multicellular. Seaweeds are examples of multicellular algae. On the other hand, protozoans are unicellular, and they are more animal-like. People describe protozoa as a blob without a definite shape since they lack a cell wall. Protozoans and some algae species are able to eat food. And lastly, most algae and some protozoans are able to do the process of photosynthesis. Algae come in different colors, shapes, and sizes. Most algae look green in color and slimy. You can find algae near bodies of water or other humid places <P> Both algal protists and protozoans, as well as other members of the Protista kingdom, have a simple organization. There is significant diversity within the protist and protozoan groupings, mostly in regard to nutrition, how they move about in their environment, their membranes and life cycles. Algal protists are plant-like in that they use photosynthesis to turn light from the sun into energy. Protozoans are more animal-like by ingesting food through their membranes. There are a variety of protozoans, and they eat in a variety of ways. <P> Algae and protozoans belong to the same kingdom, Protista, which is the kingdom that is used for many organisms that do not fit neatly into another category. Protists include algae, protozoa and slime molds. The major difference between algae and protozoa is that algae are able to make their own food, as plants do, while protozoa ingest other organisms or organic molecules, as animals do. In scientific terms, algae are autotrophs and protozoa are heterotrophs.. Difference Between Protozoans & Algae. In many ways, protozoa and algae are similar. In biological terms,... 1 Characteristics of Protozoa & Algae. <P> Protozoa, fungi and algae are eukaryotes, that is, their DNA is packed into a nucleus. Protozoa are unicelled and paraphyletic. Fungi are a kingdom on their own, can be unicelled or multicelled, they're always heterotrophic organisms, unlike most algae, but can be symbionts, parasits or saprobes. <P> Best Answer: Biology is often stranger and more diverse than the language we use to describe it. Neither protozoa or algae are clearly defined groups like Animals, or mammals.. Both groups are very diverse. Euglena are classified as flagellates, and the flagellates are normally considered protozoans. Most people also consider Euglena to be a species of algae. Lets assume that you are talking about those algae that are in the protist kingdom
