<P> They are of either sex and there is no sure way to know one, though they usually look withered and old, because they have added so many lives to their own. At night, when some one is sick or dying in the settlement, the Raven Mocker goes to the place to take the life. He flies through the air in fiery shape, with arms outstretched like wings, and sparks trailing behind, and a rushing sound like the noise of a strong wind. When the Raven Mocker comes to the house he finds others of his kind waiting there, and unless there is a doctor on guard who knows bow to drive them away they go inside, all invisible, and frighten and torment the sick man until they kill him. <P> Kalona-Raven Mocker (imitator). This is the Kalona Ayeliski. It's also known as the Raven Mocker (imitator), the worst of all evil spirits. Think of it as the “Angel of Death”. Because of this, the point man in a Cherokee attack was designated the Kalona. Though it is sometimes referred to as a witch, that is a European term <P> In Tempted Edit. Stevie Rae Johnson finds an injured Raven Mocker. He speaks to her, urging her to release him from the pain of a slow death. Stevie Rae decides it would be best to heal him, because no matter what, every life is worth saving. She slowly heals him back to health while keeping the horrible secret from her friends. <P> A Raven Mocker is the chief antagonist in Evil in the Night, episode 57 of Walker, Texas Ranger. The Raven Mocker is depicted as a medicine man with shape shifting abilities and the capability of causing hallucinations in his victims. After tormenting and killing their victim by slitting the victim's head they consume his heart (doing so without leaving a mark on the victim's skin), and add a year to their life for every year that the slain would have still lived. Much like a banshee, the sound of a raven mocker means that someone will soon die. Raven mockers are normally invisible when feeding, but those with strong medicine can not only spot them but cause them to die within seven day <P> A Raven Mocker is an evil, immortal creature. They are the children of Kalona and the women of the ancient Cherokee tribes. They are products of rape and hatred. Kalona used the women to his hearts content and enslaved the men.

She slowly heals him back to health while keeping the horrible secret from her friends. <P> Only one who has the right medicine can recognize a Raven Mocker, and if such a man stays in the room with the sick person these witches are afraid to come in, and retreat as soon as they see him, because when one of them is recognized in his right shape he must die within seven days. When the Raven Mocker comes to the house he finds others of his kind waiting there, and unless there is a doctor on guard who knows bow to drive them away they go inside, all invisible, and frighten and torment the sick man until they kill him. <P> Raven Mocker. Raven Mockers are the most feared type of witches found in the folklore of the Cherokee people.

how many eggs does a woman lose each period
|
<P> The study published by the University of St. Andrews and Edinburgh University in Scotland found that women have lost 90 percent of their eggs by the time they are 30 years old, and only have about 3 percent remaining by the time they are 40. By the time a woman hits 30, nearly all of her ovarian eggs are gone for good, according a new study that says women who put off childbearing for too long could have difficulty ever conceiving. <P> While the average length of a menstrual cycle is 28 days, it is perfectly normal for a cycle to last anywhere from 21 to 35 days. On average, most women have menstrual flow for three to five days but it is very normal to menstruate for as much as seven days. The First Weeks. The first day of your menstrual cycle is the first day of your period. At this time, your estrogen levels are at their lowest which sends a signal to your brain that more FSH is needed. As your body produces more FSH, about 20 egg follicles begin to mature. <P> Shortly before birth, a female fetus has a few million immature eggs stored in her ovaries. Yet, by the onset of puberty, this number has already dwindled down to about 400,000. During the menstrual years, a woman will only release about 300 eggs. While each menstrual cycle usually sees the ovaries releasing one egg, what many women may not realize, though, is that their body actually prepares about 20 immature eggs every month for release. The First Weeks. The first day of your menstrual cycle is the first day of your period. At this time, your estrogen levels are at their lowest which sends a signal to your brain that more FSH is needed. As your body produces more FSH, about 20 egg follicles begin to mature. <P> On average, a woman’s cycle normally is between 28-32 days, but some women may have much shorter or much longer cycles. Ovulation can be calculated by starting with the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP) or by calculating 12-16 days from the next expected period. Most women ovulate anywhere between Day 11 – Day 21 of their cycle, counting from the first day of the LMP. <P> Women who have more pregnancies are fertile for longer, and some women are born with more eggs than others, she said. The more eggs with which a woman is born, the longer she will be fertile and more time she will have until the onset of menopause. By the time a woman hits 30, nearly all of her ovarian eggs are gone for good, according a new study that says women who put off childbearing for too long could have difficulty ever conceiving. <P> Some of this decline is due to loss of egg inventory (or egg count) as women age, but it should be noted that although women lose 88% of their eggs by age 30, the monthly chance of having a live birth only decreases by 1% (from 20 to 19%). So, loss of egg inventory is only part of the story. Nothing, not even pregnancy or birth control, can slow the monthly recruitment and loss of eggs. Even though hundreds of eggs are recruited each month, more than 99% will ultimately die without ever being ovulated. It is estimated that only 450 eggs will be ovulated by a woman during her reproductive years. <P> A: No. Savard says birth control pills do not in any way affect a woman's fertility or egg count. Even if you'ree on the pill for a long period of time, that doesn't influence your fertility, she said. The length of a woman's cycle -- whether it is longer or shorter -- does not predict a woman's fertility, she added. By the time a woman hits 30, nearly all of her ovarian eggs are gone for good, according a new study that says women who put off childbearing for too long could have difficulty ever conceiving. <P> Throughout the reproductive life span, from puberty until menopause, women lose about 1000 eggs each. month. Every female fetus is born with the possibility of 300 eggs. By the time she is 35 she has about 50% left and by the time she is 40 she has about 20% left. So it depends on th … e woman since not all ovulates every month and depends on when they start and stop but in her 20's she should have almost all left.

what is normal bilirubin levels in bd
|
<P> It is normal for a baby's bilirubin level to be a bit high after birth. When the baby is growing in the mother's womb, the placenta removes bilirubin from the baby's body. The placenta is the organ that grows during pregnancy to feed the baby. After birth, the baby's liver starts doing this job. <P> In order to analyze of the bilirubin levels in adults are normal or not, the doctor will need to look at the values of all three, direct bilirubin, indirect bilirubin and total bilirubin. Given below is the normal bilirubin range in adults: 1 Direct bilirubin: 0.1 mg/ dl to 0.3 mg/ dl (1.7 mmol/ l to 5.1 mmol/ l). <P> A bilirubin test measures the amount of bilirubin in a blood sample. Bilirubin is a brownish yellow substance found in bile. It is produced when the liver breaks down old red blood cells. Bilirubin is then removed from the body through the stool (feces) and gives stool its normal color. <P> Bilirubin is a yellow pigment that is in everyone’s blood and stool. If you notice a yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes, this is called jaundice, and it may be caused by high levels of bilirubin. Bilirubin is made in the body when old red blood cells are broken down. The breakdown of old cells is a normal, healthy process. After circulating in your blood, bilirubin then travels to your liver. In the liver, bilirubin is excreted into the bile duct and stored in your gall bladder. <P> Normal results for a bilirubin test are 1.2 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) of total bilirubin for adults, and usually 1 mg/dL for those under 18. Normal results for direct bilirubin are generally 0.3 mg/dL. These results may vary slightly from laboratory to laboratory. <P> In a newborn, higher bilirubin is normal due to the stress of birth. Normal bilirubin in a newborn would be under 5 mg/dL, but up to 60 percent of newborns have some kind of jaundice and bilirubin levels above 5 mg/dL. <P> A bilirubin test is used to detect an increased level in the blood. It may be used to help determine the cause of jaundice and/or help diagnose conditions such as liver disease, hemolytic anemia, and blockage of the bile ducts. <P> Bilirubin testing checks for levels of bilirubin in your blood. Bilirubin (bil-ih-ROO-bin) is an orange-yellow substance made during the normal breakdown of red blood cells. Bilirubin passes through the liver and is eventually excreted out of the body.

how much would it cost to replace floorboards
|
<P> Just a small amount of moisture can make particle board floors -- the low-cost and low-quality subfloor material -- buckle and rot. Plywood is a little tougher, but once moisture is trapped under carpet or flooring, it stays wet, leading to mold and rot. It's not difficult to replace the floor, however, just messy. <P> 1 Costs can run $10,000-$30,000 or more for a typical home, depending on its size, the extent of the extent of the damage and the ease of access to install jacks and replace the timbers. 2 If the damage is limited to just one section of floor joists, the project could run $5,000-$10,000. <P> Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: if you have a wood floor,you can't replace it with concrete. an area that small would be very little to replace.take the bad flooring out. nail or screw new joists to the existing joist ends,overlap the old joist ends with the new board and screw or nail them together. cut a sheet of 3/4 or 5/8 inch plywood for the sub floor,then replace the flooring that was there to match the existing. <P> 1 Total costs will depend on the extent of the damage and the ease of access to the joists (through a basement or crawlspace), but in general sistering averages $100-$300 or more per joist, and could run $1,000-$3,000 or more to repair a tilted, wavy or bouncy floor under an average room. <P> The average cost to repair a hardwood floor is $200 to $650 per repair, depending on the problem and type of hardwood floor. The most common hardwood flooring repairs include masking small blemishes and refinishing and resealing surfaces. <P> To clarify the following prices it is recommended that you read the article in the INFORMATION box below the PRICES…. (These prices are based on a tradesman’s rate of £150.00 per day and a labourer if required at £100.00 per day. <P> The cost to have vinyl flooring repaired is anywhere between $100 and $300 per job, though you might pay more if the damage is extensive. Vinyl flooring is durable and economic -- and there are various styles from which to choose. <P> A pound of screws costs about $5, and there are about 150 screws in a pound, so the square-foot cost for screws is about $0.30. Adding these to the price of the sealer or stain you plan to use should give you an idea of the cost of the board replacement.

what techniques did picasso use
|
<P> Picasso is known for the great number of techniques used in producing his original graphics. We have summarized the distinctions between many of those printmaking methods below and illustrated examples with actual works of art displayed in this exhibition, Picasso: Original Graphics and Ceramics. Rembrandt, in the 17th century, created more than 300 etchings. Picasso, in 1968, created 347 etchings for a single suite at age 87! porous ground of acid-resistant particles is used to cover areas of the metal plate. Heat is then used to fuse the particles to the plate. <P> Pablo Picasso was one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. He experimented in many different styles and changed the world of art during his time. Pablo Picasso was born in Malaga, Spain in 1881. His father was a drawing teacher. At 10 Pablo became his father’s pupil and at the age of 13 he held his first exhibition. His family moved to Barcelona in 1895 where Pablo joined an art academy. <P> Pablo Picasso 1881 - 1973 Spanish painter and sculptor, generally considered the greatest artist of the 20th century. He was unique as an inventor of forms, as an innovator of styles and techniques, as a master of various media, and as one of the most prolific artists in history. He created more than 20,000 works. <P> Picasso is known for having extended the boundaries and traditional means of the printmaking techniques shown below and often combined techniques in producing his original graphics. A drypoint (form of engraving) is made by scratching a sharp needle into a metal plate, raising tiny ridges that also catch ink. Rembrandt, in the 17th century, created more than 300 etchings. Picasso, in 1968, created 347 etchings for a single suite at age 87! porous ground of acid-resistant particles is used to cover areas of the metal plate. Heat is then used to fuse the particles to the plate. <P> Picasso started cubism with Georges Braque. For the rest of his life he is not associated with any-isms.Also Pablo Picasso favorite artist was Georges Braque he was fascinat … ed with his art work. <P> Best Answer: Picasso's cubist pictures fall into two categories: for the first category-his analytic cubist paintings-where the forms and objects were broken up into fragments looking like shards of glass-he used traditional materials-oil paints on canvas, or occasionally on board. <P> Pablo Picasso's Cubism Period - 1909 to 1912. Analytical Cubism is one of the two major branches of the artistic movement of Cubism and was developed between 1908 and 1912. In contrast to Synthetic cubism, Analytic cubists analyzed natural forms and reduced the forms into basic geometric parts on the two-dimensional picture plane <P> Born in M laga on October 25, 1881, Picasso was the son of Jos Ruiz Blasco, an art teacher, and Mar a Picasso y Lopez. Until 1898 he always used his father's name, Ruiz, and his mother's maiden name, Picasso, to sign his pictures. After about 1901 he dropped Ruiz and used his mother's maiden name to sign his pictures. He was unique as an inventor of forms, as an innovator of styles and techniques, as a master of various media, and as one of the most prolific artists in history. He created more than 20,000 works. <P> Picasso's work beyond Cubism took on more symbolic elements and was influenced by Surrealism and the art of Salvador Dali. Rather than moving on to a totally new style, Picasso instead combined many of his previous techniques. Spanish painter Pablo Picasso transitioned between four distinct styles during his career, exploring different techniques in each. These styles coincided with major personal and world events during his lifetime. Picasso was an accomplished multimedia artist, having worked primarily with oil paint, sculpture and collage

what vitamins will help tendons & ligaments?
|
<P> Vitamin C. Tendons and ligaments also need vitamin C, a nutrient found in many vegetables and fruits, because both tissues contain large amounts of collagen. Vitamin C plays an essential role in new collagen production, and a vitamin C deficiency can weaken your tendons and ligaments by preventing collagen synthesis. Lentils contain tendon-and ligament-healthy protein, as well as manganese and copper. Tendons and ligaments make up essential parts of your musculoskeletal system. <P> Ligaments are the flexible structures that connect bones to bones. Tendons connect muscles to bones. Although they have different functions, ligaments and tendons are both made up primarily of collagen, a strong, flexible, connective tissue. Keep your Joints Healthy. Ligaments and tendons are important for your everyday movements and activities. They can take a lot of wear and tear with just normal activities, but take a tremendous amount of strain when we exercise. This increases the need for certain vitamins and minerals in our bodies <P> Glucosamine helps build cartilage, which is the body's shock absorber. This nutrient is also known to help build strong joints, ligaments and tendons. Glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate produce a material the body needs for healthy skin, tendons, ligaments and joints. Vitamin C. Not only may vitamin C help reduce or prevent delayed onset muscle soreness due to exercise, it may also speed along recovery. Vitamin C helps our bodies produce collagen, which strengthens the connective tissue that forms our <P> Collagen is one of the main ingredients in tendons and the supplementation or addition of Vitamin C to an injured body can help repair muscle and tendon tissue. Collagen is a protein that makes up muscle tissues, as well as connective tissues including tendons and ligaments. <P> Vitamin B-6. Vitamin B-6 may help control inflammation that can damage tendons and ligaments, according a study published in the September 2010 European Journal of Clinical Nutrition.. Participants supplemented with 100 milligrams per day of vitamin B-6 for 12 weeks. SHARE SHARE TWEET EMAIL. Your tendons, which attach muscles to bones, and ligaments, which attach adjacent bones to each other, are made of cords of connective tissue comprised of primarily water and protein strands. These important structures receive very little blood supply relative to muscles and, as a result, heal more slowly from injury <P> Protein makes up the bulk of your tendons and ligaments. Collagen makes your tissues strong, while the protein elastin in ligaments provides some elasticity. Protein from your diet allows your body to produce new collagen and elastin to help keep your tendons and ligaments strong. Lentils contain tendon-and ligament-healthy protein, as well as manganese and copper. Tendons and ligaments make up essential parts of your musculoskeletal system. <P> Eating foods rich in essential minerals also helps maintain healthy tendons and ligaments. Tendons contain small amounts of calcium and manganese as well as the trace mineral copper. Calcium also maintains healthy bones, helping to prevent bone disorders that could interfere with tendon and ligament function. Lentils contain tendon-and ligament-healthy protein, as well as manganese and copper. Tendons and ligaments make up essential parts of your musculoskeletal system. <P> To fully understand how vitamins and supplements can help to protect and repair ligaments and tendons, you must first learn what these tissues need and how each vitamin or supplement contributes to the needs of the tissue.

<P> The largest mountain in Mexico is El Pixo de Orizaba. This mountain, which was formerly a volcano, is among the highest mountains in North America. Only Denali and Mount Logan are taller. The summit of El Pixo de Orizaba is approximately 18,900 feet above sea level--this is about three and a half miles. <P> Western North American Population. Monarchs living west of the Rocky Mountain range in North America overwinter in California along the Pacific coast near Santa Cruz and San Diego. Here microclimatic conditions are very similar to that in central Mexico. Monarchs roost in eucalyptus, Monterey pines, and Monterey cypresses in California. <P> You can find most of the mountains in Mexico in one of two regions. The highest mountain peaks are located in the state of Puebla. The main mountain range in Mexico--the Sierra Madre Mountains--runs from the northwest to the southeast portion. The mountains start near the California border and continue into Guatemala. This mountain, which was formerly a volcano, is among the highest mountains in North America. Only Denali and Mount Logan are taller. The summit of El Pixo de Orizaba is approximately 18,900 feet above sea level--this is about three and a half miles. <P> The Sandia Mountains (Tiwa Pueblo name posu gai hoo-oo, where water slides down arroyo ) are a mountain range located in Bernalillo and Sandoval counties, immediately to the east of the city of Albuquerque in New Mexico in the southwestern United States. Lying to the east and northeast of the Sandias are two smaller ranges, the Ortiz Mountains and the San Pedro Mountains. The Sandia Mountains are home to the world's second longest tramway, which is 2.7 miles (4.3 km) long. Over this distance the tram cars ascend over 4,000 feet (1,200 m). <P> 1 The deserts of the Basin and Range Province in the United States and Mexico, which includes the dry areas east of the Cascade Mountains of Oregon and Washington and the Great Basin, which covers almost all of Nevada and parts of Utah are rain shadowed. 1 The central region of Myanmar is in the rain shadow of the Arakan Mountains and is almost semi-arid with only 750 millimetres (30 in) of rain as against as much as 5.5 metres (220 in) on the Rakhine State coast. <P> Mountains. The Sierra Madres are the major mountain ranges in Mexico. They are an extension of the Rocky Mountains in the neighboring U.S. The ranges are divided into the Sierra Madre del Sur, Sierra Occidental and Sierra Oriental. The Sierra Occidental and Oriental run from north to south through Mexico. Although this is the least well known of the landforms in Mexico, the Mexican Plateau is famous within the country. It is located between the Sierra Madres Mountains, in the center of the country. The plateau receives a large amount of rain, and because volcanoes surround it, has very fertile soil. <P> Mountains on the flanks of the Rio Grande rift in the southwestern United States are examples of fault block mountains.

The mountains block the passage of rain-producing weather systems and cast a shadow of dryness behind them. 1 The central region of Myanmar is in the rain shadow of the Arakan Mountains and is almost semi-arid with only 750 millimetres (30 in) of rain as against as much as 5.5 metres (220 in) on the Rakhine State coast. <P> Three ranges exist: * On the western coast is Sierra Madre Occidental * On the eastern side is Sierra Madre Oriental * and on the southern is Sierra Madre del Sur. It is the Pico de Orizaba, the seventh tallest mountain in the world, with 5,636 metres (18,490 ft) of height. <P> The Rocky Mountains took shape during a period of intense plate tectonic activity that formed much of the rugged landscape of the western United States. Three major mountain-building episodes reshaped the west from about 170 to 40 million years ago (Jurassic to Cenozoic Periods). The last mountain building event, the Laramide orogeny, (about 70-40 million years ago) the last of the three episodes, is responsible for raising the Rocky Mountains. The Rockies form a majestic mountain barrier that stretches from Canada through central New Mexico. Although formidable, a look at the topography reveals a discontinuous series of mountain ranges with distinct geological origins. List of National Parks exhibiting the Rocky Mountain Province.

what is malted milk
|
<P> Malted milk is a powder made of barley, wheat flour, and malt powder that is combined with milk to form a beverage. Often, malted milk powder is added to milkshakes to add sweetness and flavor. <P> A jar, mug, and a couple of teaspoons of Horlicks malted milk. Malted milk is a powdered gruel made from a mixture of malted barley, wheat flour, and whole milk, which is evaporated until it forms a powder. Malt powder comes in two forms: diastatic and nondiastatic. Diastatic malt contains enzymes that break down starch into sugar; this is the form bakers add to bread dough to help the dough rise and create a good crust. Nondiastatic malt has no active enzymes and is used primarily for flavor, mostly in beverages. <P> Malted milk is a powder made from milk, salt, baking soda, and malted barley and wheat extract. While slightly bitter if tasted straight, malted milk powder takes on a sweet flavor when added to milk shakes and other confections. <P> The powder is made by combining malted barley with whole milk and wheat flour, which is then dried for convenience. In baking, malted milk with starch converting enzymes is used to make crustier bread doughs with more rise. The enzymes are usually absent in powder that is intended for use as a flavoring. <P> Full Definition of MALTED MILK. 1. : a soluble powder prepared from dried milk and malted cereals. 2. : a beverage made by dissolving malted milk in milk and usually adding ice cream and flavoring —called also malted. <P> Malted Milk Powder. Malted milk powder is a fine light-yellow powder with a mellow, nutty flavor and a natural sweetness. The term “malt” refers to a grain (usually barley) that has been sprouted and quickly dried. Malt has many uses, including a base for beer, whiskey, and malt vinegar.

After you get a CDL, apply for a background check from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) if you'll be obtaining a hazardous materials endorsement. You may do this online or by contacting a TSA agent. They will ask for: 1 Your CDL or CDL permit number. 2 Proof of legal status. 3 Proof of Identity. <P> TSA estimates that most background record checks will take 30 days or less, however in some instances the process can take up to 60 days and in rare instances longer. <P> Hazardous materials endorsement (hazmat). If you’re a commercial driver and want to transfer, add, or renew a hazardous materials endorsement (HME) in Washington state (WA), you’ll need to know the following: 1 The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) HME clearance is valid for 5 years. 1 1. Complete the HME background check through TSA. 2 The TSA HME clearance can take up to 45 days to process, allow enough time so you can add or renew license with HME. 3 Take the HME knowledge test at a CDL/CLP office location. <P> In addition to the normal requirements for a CDL, you will need a background records check before a hazardous materials endorsement (HME) can be issued. Only commercial drivers transporting hazardous materials are required to undergo a background record check. These requirements do not apply to drivers or applicants for a CDL that do not apply for a hazardous materials endorsement (HME). <P> 1 • The expiration of the HME clearance will determine how long or if we can issue you a license with HME. 2 The Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) background check will not suffice for the HME background check. • 3 Adding a hazmat endorsement could affect your current license expiration date. 1 1. Complete the HME background check through TSA. 2 The TSA HME clearance can take up to 45 days to process, allow enough time so you can add or renew license with HME. 3 Take the HME knowledge test at a CDL/CLP office location. <P> Why is a background records check (BRC) now required before getting a hazardous materials endorsement (HME)? The requirement is a result of the U.S. PATRIOT Act (Public Law 107-56, Section 1012), the Safe Explosives Act (Public Law 107-296, Section 1121-1123), ARS § 28-3103(A)(2) and 49 CFR 1572.

how to make credit score go up fast
|
<P> Get a responsible loan. If you know you'll be able to pay it off, a small personal loan can increase your credit score. About 10% of your FICO credit score is what's called account mix, or basically how many different loans and credit accounts you have. 1 Ideal credit utilization rates are under 10%. 2 If you can get your total debt to under 10% of your available credit, you've done very well. 3 This should be your target debt level, even if it might take you a while to get there. <P> If you pay off those balances, your score will rebound within 3 months. Just depends on how fast it gets reported to the credit bureaus. Paying down or off credit card debt is the fastest way to get a score boost. Applying for a new card will generate a hard inquiry which can cost your score up to 10 pts. Best Answer: How fast your score improves and to what level depends on a few different factors. Credit Utilization-You want to keep your running balance (if you can't afford to pay your credit debt in full) at less than 30% of your credit limit. Credit utilization accounts for 30% of your credit score <P> The higher your credit score, the more likely you will be approved for a loan or other forms of credit and at a lower interest rate. If your credit score is low and you find yourself needing to get your score up quickly different measures will take different amounts of time, ranging from days to months. Paying your bills late will hurt your score the most, therefore always make your payments on time. Bill payment history makes up 35 percent of your credit score. A credit complaint to a collection agency will take up to seven years to come off your report, but your credit score will go up with each timely payment you make. Obtain your credit scores after a few months to verify the increase <P> The fastest way to raise your credit score is by reducing your balance to credit ratio. For example, if you have a $5000 limit credit card, but owe $4900, that will kill your score. Reducing that balance down to 0 or even $1000, would likely cause a jump of 40+ points or more in your score. Increase your credit limits. The first simple and fast tip to raising your credit score is by increasing your credit card limits. If your balance is $4900 on your $5000 limit card, your balance to credit ratio is nearly 100%. <P> The First Step. The first step in making your credit score go up is to determine the reason why it is bad in the first place. Generally it will be from late payments, maxed out credit cards ,excessive credit inquiries and other irresponsible behavior. The best way to accomplish this is to buy and examine a copy of your credit report. Once you determine why it is bad you need to develop a plan and a budget to keep from making the same mistake twice! The Second Step. Next, find the items on your credit report that are pulling your credit scores down and put them into a list, organize the list with the oldest accounts at the top of the list. You are going to be using this list to dispute these negative accounts with the credit bureaus through dispute letters <P> Every time you apply for credit, the lender makes a hard inquiry into your credit history, and this type of inquiry hurts your FICO score a few points. You get all these hard inquiry points back over the course of a year after the hard inquiry, and the inquiry falls off your reports at the 2-year mark. 30% of your score is credit utilization: how much of your credit limit is used up by your balance? On each revolving account, you need to keep your balance below 30% of your credit limit, or you will hurt your FICO score. For example, if you have a $200 credit limit, you must not have a balance higher than $60, which is 30% of $200

what is frit in ceramics
|
<P> $26.95. Frits are important components of most ceramic glazes. A frit is a type of ceramic glass that predominantly consists of silica, diboron trioxide, and soda. This combination of raw materials are industrially melted and rapidly cooled, making them insoluble. <P> A frit is a ceramic composition that has been fused in a special fusing oven, quenched to form a glass, and granulated. <P> Frit is used in a variety of industries. For example, in the ceramic whiteware industry it is used as a glaze component. In the glass decorating industry, it is used as a flux in the formulation of ceramic colors. In the abrasives and refractory industries, frit is employed as a bonding agent. <P> Ceramic Frits. Frit is a ceramic composition formed by fusing inorganic materials into a glass by heating them in smelters and quenching them in water. This process, known as “fritting” was developed to render any soluble and/or toxic components insoluble and/or nontoxic. <P> Frits form an important part of the batches used in compounding enamels and ceramic glazes; the purpose of this pre-fusion is to render any soluble and/or toxic components insoluble by causing them to combine with silica and other added oxides. <P> Frit 3110 primarily consists of sodium and is used as a component in both earthenware and stoneware glazes. This frit is a good choice to use in glaze recipes that require a high alkaline frit. Ceramic Frits are important components of most ceramic glazes and predominantly consist of silica, diboron trioxide, and soda.

measure air temperature without thermometer
|
<P> A variety of sensors are available for measuring air temperature, including mercury-in-glass thermometers, bimetallic thermometers, pressure thermometers, thermocouples, resistance temperature detectors, thermistors and monolithic (ICTT) temperature sensors. THERMOMETER(Temperature Sensing and Measuring Devices)A device that senses temperature changes of a body or space. It consists essentially of some confined substance, such as mercury, the volume (or other measurable physical property) of which changes with a change in temperature. <P> A common mistake is to measure air temperature at some location other than in the immediate vicinity of the animals. For example, measuring air temperature at four foot from the floor when the animals are only one foot in height, can sometimes result in errors of several degrees Celsius.B. THERMOMETER(Temperature Sensing and Measuring Devices)A device that senses temperature changes of a body or space. It consists essentially of some confined substance, such as mercury, the volume (or other measurable physical property) of which changes with a change in temperature. <P> Air temperature is relatively easy to measure. However, the investigator must be aware that air temperature is subject to considerable variation through space and time. THERMOMETER(Temperature Sensing and Measuring Devices)A device that senses temperature changes of a body or space. It consists essentially of some confined substance, such as mercury, the volume (or other measurable physical property) of which changes with a change in temperature. <P> The temperature of the air is a measure of how quickly the molecules are moving. The more energy of motion the molecules have, the higher the temperature you feel in the air. Air temperature is measured with thermometers. Common thermometers consist of a glass rod with a very thin tube in it. The tube contains a liquid that is supplied from a reservoir, or bulb, at the base of the thermometer. Sometimes the liquid is mercury, and sometimes it is red-colored alcohol. The tube is marked with a scale, in degrees Fahrenheit or in degrees Celsius. When you are measuring the air temperature, be sure to have the thermometer in the shade. If the sun shines on the thermometer, it heats the liquid. Then the reading is higher than the true air temperature. <P> They include the thermal expansion of solids or liquids with temperature, or the change in pressure of a gas on heating or cooling. Radiation-type thermometers measure the infrared energy emitted by an object, allowing measurement of temperature without contact. Thermometers are widely used in industry to control and regulate processes, in the study of weather, in medicine, and scientific research. The precision or resolution of a thermometer is simply to what fraction of a degree it is possible to make a reading. For high temperature work it may only be possible to measure to the nearest 10 °C or more. Clinical thermometers and many electronic thermometers are usually readable to 0.1 °C. <P> Description. A demonstration of how to measure the air temperature using a thermometer. There are temperature differences between day and night, and the temperature varies between shade and full sunshine. We can describe the temperature as being hot, mild, chilly or freezing. <P> The temperature at which condensation sets in is called the dew point. The dew point, and other measures of humidity can be calculated from readings taken by a hygrometer. A hygrometer has two thermometers, one dry bulb or standard air temperature thermometer, and one wet bulb thermometer. <P> A. Use a Thermometer to measure Temperature Overview Temperature is measured with a thermometer usually made of a glass tube with colored alcohol. As the air gets hotter, the level of the liquid rises and, as the air gets cooler, the level falls. The temperature of the air is always changing. Use a Thermometer to measure Temperature Materials Purchased thermometer (unfortunately the thermometer you just made will NOT be able to provide accurate measurements) Procedure Go outside and wait two minutes before you take a reading. This is to allow the thermometer to adjust to the outside air temperature. <P> A thermometer is a device that measures the temperature of things. The name is made up of two smaller words: Thermo means heat and meter means to measure. You can use a thermometer to tell the temperature outside or inside your house, inside your oven, even the temperature of your body if you're sick.

what is statute law australia
|
<P> Legislation is law made by parliaments. Legislation is also known as statute law, statutes, or Acts of Parliament. In Australia, legislation is made by the Commonwealth parliament, the State parliaments, and by the legislatures of the Northern Territory, the Australian Capital Territory and Norfolk Island. Other bodies, such as local governments, are given certain powers by parliaments to make legislation as well. <P> All of the states and territories of Australia that are self-governing are separate jurisdictions, and have their own system of courts and parliaments. The systems of laws in each state are influential on each other, but not binding. Laws passed by the Parliament of the Commonwealth apply to the whole of Australia. The organized system of law and government now in force in Australia is historically dependent for its legal validity on a series of British statutes, notably including the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900. <P> Expert: Brisbane-Lawyer replied 4 years ago. The difference between common law and statute law is relatively easy to understand. Common law is the law that has come out of the cases that judges have decided. Statute law is law made by the legislature and is written and contained in Acts. As for negligence, the common law elements of that tort are: (a) That the defendant owed a duty of care to the plaintiff, that is a duty to look out for the interests and well being of the plaintiff; <P> Statute law refers to the laws that have been passed by the legislature and have been written down and 'codified' for use. Common law refers to the laws that are more or less that's the way it has always been done.. There only difference between legislation and statute law is that the word legislation can refer to the act of trying to create law, regardless of whether any law is actually … passed. In contrast, statutes are laws that have actually been passed. <P> Statute. An act of a legislature that declares, proscribes, or commands something; a specific law, expressed in writing. A statute is a written law passed by a legislature on the state or federal level. Statutes set forth general propositions of law that courts apply to specific situations. A statute may forbid a certain act, direct a certain act, make a declaration, or set forth governmental mechanisms to aid society. <P> Report Abuse. Statute law is legislation created by a legislature-in the US that is Congress, in the UK and Australia it is Parliament. It's origins-at least in countries with an English legal heritage-are the royal proclamations made by the King or Queen. <P> Statute law is legislation that has been passed through Parliament. The terms 'statute' and 'legislation' may be used interchangeably. Creating statute law. Here is a brief overview of the process of legislation in Federal Parliament: An issue is brought before Parliament. If Parliament decides to take on the issue, they draft a Bill, which is a proposal for a law or a proposal to amend an existing law. <P> Tort law in Australia is the body of precedents and, to a lesser extent, legislation, that together define the operation of tort law in Australia. A tort is a civil wrong, other than a breach of contract. Australian tort law is heavily influenced by the common law in other countries, principally the United Kingdom, by virtue of Australia's colonial heritage. However, this has since been modified by statutes such as the various State's Civil Liabilities Acts. <P> Common Law. Common law or case law is law as declared by judges. Legislation is the primary source of law today and all cases start with interpreting the legislation as made by Commonwealth and the States. There are a few notable exceptions to this rule that are common law jurisdictions. <P> Common law is separate from statute law and does not rely on there being any Act of Parliament underpinning it. While statute law is the main source of law in Australia, the common law remains a vital and developing part of our legal system. Statute law always prevails over common law if there is a conflict. The common law relies on the principle of precedent. How law is made. The most important role of parliaments is to make laws for their state, territory or the Commonwealth. The parliamentary process of passing of statutes, known as ‘Acts’, deals with regulating various aspects of our society. For a detailed explanation of the process of law making see The Legislature.

Towards the front of the foot, at the mid-metatarsal level, it divides into five sections, each extending into a toe and straddling the flexor tendons. <P> When dissected, aponeuroses are papery and peel off by sections. The primary regions with thick aponeurosis are in the ventral abdominal region, the dorsal lumbar region, the ventriculus in birds, and the palmar and plantar regions.

how old is a FREE RANGE chicken before slaughter
|
<P> In Australia, free range and organic chicken accounts for about 16.6% of value in the poultry market. This percentage is expected to grow to up to 25% in the next 5 years. <P> At approximately 5-7 weeks of age, chickens have reached the 'target' weight for slaughter. Before catching the chickens to be transportation for slaughter, food is withdrawn for 8-12 hours and water for 1 hour. Catchers walk through the sheds at night grabbing birds by one leg and carrying them in bunches (up to five each hand) to crates. They are then bundled into the crates and stacked onto a truck. <P> Chickens are very fast growing and sexually mature by the age of 6 months. Most chickens are slaughtered for consumption at between 30 days and 6 months of age. The chickens are usually between 4 and 5 pounds by this age and marketed as a Fryer or Broiler. This is when the meat is the most tender. <P> *criteria for birds to be called free range. birds must have access to the range for a minimum of 8 hours per day once they are reasonably feathered. when fully feathered (around 5-6 weeks old) birds must have easy access to an outdoor range during daylight hours. Comparison table for conventional, free range and organic meat chickens. You will notice in this chart, that although free range and organic chicken must have access to the outdoors, they are still slaughtered when they are just 1-3 months old even though they would naturally live until they were about 7 years old. <P> I have searched the forums, but could not find an answer. My chickens are 10 weeks old-they are getting so big! They have been in their coop and attached run since they were 5 weeks old. I want to let them out of their run (when we are home and watchful). Hi, <P> Chickens will naturally live for 6 or more years, but broiler chickens typically take less than 6 weeks to reach slaughter size. A free range or organic meat chicken will usually be slaughtered at about 14 weeks of age. The chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is a domesticated fowl, a subspecies of the red junglefowl. As one of the most common and widespread domestic animals, with a population of more than 24 billion in 2003, there are more chickens in the world than any other species of bird. <P> “Free range” is a meaningless term in this sense, since almost all chickens raised for meat are uncaged. 5. Heart failure afflicts chickens at a rate of at least 4.7% and is attributed to genetic manipulation, but this figure only covers birds within their first 42 days of life. Industry Facts About Chickens Raised for Meat. 1. 51.4 billion chickens are artificially hatched, fattened up and slaughtered as 42-day-old babies every year globally. A chicken’s normal lifespan is 10–15 years. (1). <P> Broiler Chickens Fact Sheet. Every year in Australia alone, over half a billion chickens are raised and slaughtered for meat. Only around 15% of chickens are raised 'free range' in Australia (and about half of that is also 'organic'). *Australian Chicken Meat Federation estimate for 2010/11. Before catching the chickens to be transportation for slaughter, food is withdrawn for 8-12 hours and water for 1 hour. Catchers walk through the sheds at night grabbing birds by one leg and carrying them in bunches (up to five each hand) to crates. They are then bundled into the crates and stacked onto a truck. <P> There is a bigger price hike in free-range for chicken meat than for eggs. At Sainsbury's, breast fillets-the most commonly bought chicken-vary from £6.95 per kg for Basics fillet portions, to £12.99 for standard, to £14.95 for free-range, to £19 for organic free-range. Free-range accounts for 5% and organic 1% of UK chicken production, according to the British Poultry Council. The remaining 94% comes from intensively reared birds. This is in stark contrast to eggs, where free-range and organic together make up 45% of UK production.

how to check your oil on a polaris atv
|
<P> The oil determins how long your 4-stroke ATV will last. Check it after each ride... Here's how: 1 Before you check the oil level, start your engine and let it turn for a minute or 2 before you shut it down again. 2 Screw out the oil dipstick. 3 Clean it with a clean cloth and screw it back in. 4 The way you put the dipstick back in depends on the ATV model you own. <P> Next is the oil change. On the Polaris's you take this side panel off and it fits in grooves right here, right here and there is a rubber pin that sits in there. You just set it aside and then the oil on the Polaris's to check the oil, you need a rage. To check your oil on the Polaris's they have a separate oil tank. All the oil is not in a Polaris motor. Most Polaris motors they have what they call a remote reservoir oil system and this is the dipstick for a Polaris. <P> Some of them are up under here and the dipstick on a Polaris when you check it, you pull it out and wipe it off and you don't screw it back on. You just set it on back on top and bring it out and you can tell your oil level. This one is right here. It's right where it is supposed to be. <P> In this video I walk through how to change the oil on a Polaris Sportsman four wheeler. I cover draining the oil tank, draining the crank case, changing the oil filter and cleaning off the oil screen. Some people who own a Sportsman don't even know where the crank case drain plug is located, let along how to remove it.

how much does it cost to provide welfare
|
<P> On average, each federal income taxpayer in America spends $8,776 annually to keep federal welfare programs afloat. In the U.S. today,[1] there are more than 80 federal means-tested welfare programs that provide cash, food, housing, medical care, and social services to low-income residents. <P> The annual cost to the Federal government of these programs, according to CATO, is $668.2 billion. Add in State programs that cost $284 billion and the annual welfare costs in the country often exceeds $1 trillion dollars. Cato considered only six of the Federal programs and none of the State programs to reach their “average annual welfare benefit” number. If a welfare recipient receives $40,000 per year, that income equals $19.23 per hour for someone who works 40 hours a week for 52 weeks a year. An income of $19.73 per hour is 2.7 times the federal minimum wage of $7,25 per hour. Articles quantifying the total income of welfare recipients are badly needed. <P> Report Abuse. On Welfare about $ 1423.00 per month Substance abuse $1382.00 per month A child in Foster Care $11,698.00 per year And these are not updated figured for 2006. Source(s): For one State in the United States/ for the year 2004. ibelieve · 9 years ago. Thumbs up. You are looking in the wrong place. The average cost of an average childbirth to a hospital is in the thousands. The average cost of a child's education in California NOT counting construction costs for new schools is over $10,000 per year. The cost of those on welfare, while high per individual, doesn't include the biggest costs since education and health care costs are much more prevelant <P> Applying the same standard to means-tested welfare spending reveals that welfare will cost each household $560 per month in 2009 and $638 per month in 2010. Most of Obama's increases in welfare spending are permanent expansions of the welfare state, not temporary increases in response to the current recession. According to President Obama's budget projections, federal and state welfare spending will total $10.3 trillion over the next 10 years (FY 2009 to FY 2018). This spending will equal $250,000 for each person currently living in poverty in the U.S., or $1 million for a poor family of four. <P> Total means-tested welfare spending in FY 2008 amounted to around $16,800 for each poor person in the U.S.; however, some welfare spending goes to individuals who have low incomes but are not below the official poverty line (about $22,200 per year for a family of four). According to President Obama's budget projections, federal and state welfare spending will total $10.3 trillion over the next 10 years (FY 2009 to FY 2018). This spending will equal $250,000 for each person currently living in poverty in the U.S., or $1 million for a poor family of four. <P> In the U.S. today, total spending on means-tested welfare programs amounts to $956 billion per year. This figure represents an increase of 32% over the level of welfare spending that was in place at the beginning of the Obama presidency. In the U.S. today,[1] there are more than 80 federal means-tested welfare programs that provide cash, food, housing, medical care, and social services to low-income residents. <P> In 2010, the average unlawful immigrant household received around $24,721 in government benefits and services while paying some $10,334 in taxes. This generated an average annual fiscal deficit (benefits received minus taxes paid) of around $14,387 per household. This cost had to be borne by U.S. taxpayers. In reality, postponing access to government benefits has only a marginal impact on fiscal costs. If amnesty recipients are barred from receiving welfare aid and health benefits from Obamacare for 13 years after initial amnesty, the total fiscal deficit falls by 12 percent from $7.1 trillion to $6.3 trillion. <P> Of the $714 billion in welfare spending, $522 billion (73 percent) was federal expenditures, and $192 billion (27 percent) was state government funds. Nearly all state government welfare expenditures are required matching contributions to federal welfare programs. According to President Obama's budget projections, federal and state welfare spending will total $10.3 trillion over the next 10 years (FY 2009 to FY 2018). This spending will equal $250,000 for each person currently living in poverty in the U.S., or $1 million for a poor family of four. <P> Welfare is slightly more generous in Connecticut, where benefits are worth $38,761; a person leaving welfare for work would have to earn $21.33 per hour to be better off. And in New Jersey, a worker would have to make $20.89 to beat welfare. In 33 states and the District of Columbia, welfare pays more than an $8-an-hour job. In 12 states and DC, the welfare package is more generous than a $15-an-hour job. Of course, not everyone on welfare gets all seven of the benefits in our study.

adenovirus incubation period
|
<P> Respiratory Disease caused by Adenovirus. Respiratory symptoms caused by adenoviruses are most commonly seen amongst children under the age of two. The incubation period before the onset of these symptoms is generally 5-8 days. Patients most often complain of symptoms including pharyngitis (sore throat), fever, cough, croup, and bronchioliti <P> The conjunctiva can also act as a portal of entry. The virus is most communicable during the first few days of disease but viral shedding can occur for several months. Incubation period for respiratory tract infections is 2-14 days. Incubation period for gastrointestinal disease is 3-10 days. <P> Once a child is exposed to the virus, there is an incubation period of 2 to 14 days before he has symptoms. The incubation period for gastroenteritis can range from 3 to 10 days. <P> Transmission is person-to-person via respiratory secretions, ocular discharge, hands, fecal-oral, urine, contaminated fomites, and swimming pools. Adenoviral conjunctivitis is highly contagious, with an incubation period of 7 to 10 days and a duration of 4 to 6 weeks. The virus is shed during the initial 2 weeks of symptoms. Infectious particles can survive on fomites for 2 months. AHC, like EKC, is highly contagious, causing epidemics, and produces severe conjunctivitis. Clinical characteristics helpful in distinguishing AHC from EKC are the shorter incubation period of 1 to 2 days, the shorter duration of 1 week, and the high prevalence of subconjunctival hemorrhages. <P> The incubation period for pink eye will vary, depending on whether it is caused by bacteria or a virus and the specific type. For a viral infection, generally 12 hours to three days later, signs and/or symptoms of pink eye will appear. For pink eye caused by a bacterial infection, symptoms generally start one to three days after transmission. For a viral infection, the incubation period is generally 12 hours to three days. Pink eye is the layman's term for conjunctivitis. <P> Apart from respiratory involvement, illnesses and presentations of adenovirus include gastroenteritis, conjunctivitis, cystitis, and rash illness. Symptoms of respiratory illness caused by adenovirus infection range from the common cold syndrome to pneumonia, croup, and bronchitis. <P> Adenoviruses are a group of viruses that typically cause respiratory illnesses, such as a common cold, conjunctivitis (an infection in the eye that is sometimes called pink eye), croup, bronchiolitis, or pneumonia. In children, adenoviruses usually cause infections in the respiratory tract and intestinal tract. <P> The incubation period is 8-10 days. Diarrhea is the most common symptoms in humans, with the virus found in stools for 7-14 days. About 50% of human patients have respiratory symptoms before the gastrointestinal symptoms start. In humans, mild fever, vomited and abdominal pain accompany the period of diarrhea, which can last for 10 days or so. During the first 4-5 days, no virus cells are shed. <P> Incubation period. For an airway infection it takes around 2 to 14 days for the symptoms to appear after exposure to the virus. This is called the incubation period. For intestinal infections the incubation period is 3 to10 days. Adenoviruses are a family of viruses. These may cause infections in humans as well as animals. The most common infections caused by adenoviruses are respiratory tract infections. Adenovirus often infects the airways and the intestinal tract. <P> Incubation Period. The symptoms of adenovirus can sometimes take up to two weeks to manifest, though symptoms can be seen in as little as two days. It is important to remember that the virus can live outside of the body for a considerable amount of time. Contagiousness Of The Adenovirus. Adenovirus is a very highly contagious virus that is spread easily through areas of dense population such as schools, day care facilities, public transit, and office buildings. However, there are precautions one can take to help avoid the risk of coming into contact with the virus.

There is no bending upon entering, nor upon leaving the block. <P> Longitudinal waves cause the medium to vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. It consists of multiple compressions and rarefactions. The rarefaction is the farthest distance apart in the longitudinal wave and the compression is the closest distance together. <P> 1 Refraction: 2 is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another with different densities. 3 amount of refraction depends upon: 4 density of the materials. 5 angle at which the light enters the material. 6 wavelength-causes colors of white light to separate when passing through a prism. <P> Refraction of Light. 1 Refraction: 2 is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another with different densities. 3 amount of refraction depends upon: 4 density of the materials. 5 angle at which the light enters the material. 6 wavelength-causes colors of white light to separate when passing through a prism. <P> A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium.

what is an average dose of GHB?
|
<P> An average dose of GHB is equivalent to approximately 2.5 grams of powdered gamma hydroxybutyrate. GHB has many street names. The most common ones are liquid ecstasy, liquid X, fantasy, salty water, scoop, and organic quaalude. GHB has been a drug of abuse for about ten years now. Its sale is now illegal in Quebec and the rest of Canada. <P> In liquid form, it is clear, odorless, tasteless, and almost undetectable when mixed in a drink. GHB is typically consumed by the capful or teaspoonful at a cost of $5 to $10 per dose. The average dose is 1 to 5 grams and takes effect in 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the dosage and purity of the drug. Its effects last from three to six hours. Consumption of less than 1 gram of GHB acts as a relaxant, causing a loss of muscle tone and reduced inhibitions. <P> It’s also one of the more famous “date rape” drugs, but most drug users who take GHB do so intentionally to achieve a high, often in conjunction with other drugs. GHB is often used in medicine, but it’s always carefully measured out to prevent the possibility of an overdose. <P> In other words, there is no reliable relationship between the amount of GHB you take and what happens to you. A dose that gets you high tonight might land you in the emergency room tomorrow, or in Tahiti two days from now. GHB isn't a biological agent, it's the devil in a teaspoon * ! Perfectly untrue. <P> Rohypnol and Gamma hydroxybutyrate -- GHB -- are two of the most common substances used in drug-facilitated sexual assaults. Rohypnol. Rohypnol is the trade name for flunitrazepam. It has been a concern for the last few years because of its abuse as a date rape drug. <P> GHB is usually sold as a liquid or as a white powder that is dissolved in a liquid, such as water, juice, or alcohol. GHB. dissolved in liquid has been packaged in small vials or small water bottles. In liquid form, GHB is clear and colorless. and slightly salty in taste.

Why do an amphibian or reptiles metabolism slows down when the temperature drops?
|
<P> There is no animal alive today that truly fits the description of cold-blooded. Reptiles, insects, fish and all other so called cold-blooded animals (basically anything that is not a bird or mammal) are actually quite capable of controling their body temperatures. They do it through a process known as thermoregulation. <P> Reptiles do not maintain their own body temperature within a narrow range like mammals and birds, so controlling their environmental temperature is critical for normal activity and good health. Reptiles are poikilothermic-which means that their body temperature alters with the surrounding environmental temperature. The reason for this is that they do not generate and maintain body heat internally, but rely on external heat sources-ie they are ectothermic creatures-hence the common description cold-blooded. <P> Animals are either cold-or warm-blooded. Cold-blooded animals' bodies are the same temperature as the air around them; warm-blooded animals' bodies maintain a regular temperature despite the air temperature. Mammals and birds are warm-blooded; snakes, lizards, other reptiles, fish and insects are cold-blooded. <P> Thermoregulation is the act of regulating one's body temperature. This term is usually reserved for animals, such as reptiles, that maintain their body temperatures through external means. Reptiles and other cold-bloods accomplish this by moving to different areas of their environment to warm up or cool down. <P> Snakes, being cold-blooded, do not shiver or put on more fat or fur to remain warm and alive during colder temperatures like warm-blooded creatures do. The sun's warmth plays a large part in keeping their bodies at the ideal temperature, as does their ability to slow down their metabolism and other body systems.

what does current compensation mean
|
<P> Compensation is the total amount of the monetary and non-monetary pay provided to an employee by an employer in return for work performed as required. Essentially, it's a combination of your pay, vacation, bonuses, health insurance, and any other perk you may receive, such as free lunches and parking. <P> Answers. Best Answer: First check the Current Salary range for that job for freshers and experienced.. Then based on it see what they are offering and then decide based on your requirement If you give a number too low then they might not consider you or put you in a lower position with little room to advance. Too high no consideration. No number then they start at their wage and you have to negotiate upward. <P> DEFINITION of 'Base Pay'. An employee's initial rate of compensation, excluding extra lump sum compensation or increases in the rate of pay. An employee's base pay can be expressed as a base hourly rate of pay or as an annual salary. Next Up. <P> Midpoint, market ratio, mean, median, merit bonus-I don’t know what it is with “m” words in compensation, but there are a lot of them and it can get confusing. Let’s try to simplify things by breaking down the difference between two commonly confused words: mean and median. First, let’s talk about the mean. The mean is the same thing as the average. It is the result of dividing the sum of two or more values by the number of values. So (a+b+c)/3 = the mean or average. <P> Remuneration is the compensation that one receives in exchange for the work or services performed. Typically, this consists of monetary rewards, also referred to as wage or salary. A number of complementary benefits, however, are increasingly popular remuneration mechanisms. <P> People generally think first about their annual wages or salary when asked about earnings. For example, if you earn $45,000 per year, that's what you'll think of as your annual wages or salary. However, your wages or salary doesn't encompass all of your compensation, especially if you work full time and for a large, established company. What you earn for working over the course of a year is made up of a variety of components. Your annual wages or pay -- what you bring home before taxes in your paycheck -- and what you earn in total annual compensation are two very different things, particularly if your company provides significant benefits. <P> Total Compensation (Salaries & Benefits). Total compensation is about more than salaries. Today it means health care benefits, retirement options, flexible schedules, paid time off, work environment and so much more. The state's total compensation plan emphasizes families and career employment, investing in the growth and retention of good employees. Our compensation package is a combination of salary, benefits, and other employee programs: Salary. <P> For a $50k job over 2,080 hours (you’re getting 2 weeks paid vacation included in your total compensation), the hourly rate is $24.04 per hour. For a job with no paid time off — meaning if you work 2,000 hours and don’t get the 80 hours free — the hourly rate jumps to $25 per hour. The biggest point that most people get caught up on is the salary. Salary, obviously, is very important. What you are paid by your employer impacts how much take home pay you have, what tax bracket you fall in, and what your standard of living can be without going into debt. <P> Total Compensation. Total compensation is everything the company provides an employee in exchange for working. It includes base salary, bonuses, benefits, perks and on-site amenities. Total compensation indicates that an employee is making two or three times his base salary. Base Salary. Base salary is what you see on your paycheck. It is the amount per hour or per year that you are paid for performing your job. Base salary does not include any bonuses, benefits or perks associated with the job.

Signs and Symptoms of Toxicity
|
<P> The symptoms of digoxin toxicity range from obvious to non-specific. Obvious signs of digoxin poisoning may include vomiting, nausea, hypotension, or hypothyroidism. <P> Signs and symptoms of poisoning depend on the amount and type of toxin, the form of exposure (e.g., ingestion, skin absorption, inhalation), and the age and overall health of the person. In some cases, poisoning does not cause noticeable symptoms. <P> Some signs and symptoms of poisoning can imitate signs and symptoms of common illnesses. 1 For example, nausea and vomiting are a sign (vomiting) and symptom (nausea) of poisoning. 2 However, nausea and vomiting can also be found in many illnesses that have nothing to do with poisoning. 3 Examples include: <P> In adults, the signs and symptoms of toxicity are similar to those described in Adverse Reactions (6) but may be more frequent and severe. The most common signs and symptoms of digoxin toxicity are nausea, vomiting, anorexia, and fatigue that occur in 30 to 70% of patients who are overdosed. Extremely high serum concentrations produce hyperkalemia especially in patients with impaired renal function. <P> Signs and symptoms [edit]. Digoxin toxicity is often divided into acute or chronic toxicity. In both of these toxicity, cardiac effects are of the greatest concern. With an acute ingestion, symptoms such as nausea, vertigo, and vomiting are prominent. <P> Signs and Symptoms in Adults and Children. The signs and symptoms of toxicity are generally similar to those described in the Adverse Reactions (6.1) but may be more frequent and can be more severe. Signs and symptoms of digoxin toxicity become more frequent with levels above 2 ng/mL. <P> Children. In pediatric patients, signs and symptoms of toxicity can occur during or shortly after the dose of digoxin. Frequent non-cardiac effects are similar to those observed in adults although nausea and vomiting are not seen frequently in infants and small pediatric patients.

how long to incubate chickens
|
<P> It takes 21 days to hatch an egg, but it has to be turned for the first 18 days, twice a day (one turn in the morning, and one at night). Some chickens have hatched at 21-24 d … ays, though 21 days is the main time. Chicken eggs take exactly 21 days from the date they are started incubating. Hatched naturally, most broody hens will take about 6 days to gather enough eggs and then set the nest. For the next 21 days she will seldom leave the nest except for defecating and occasionally for food and water. She will not allow the eggs to drop more than a degree or two in temperatur <P> Related tutorials: How-To #2: The First 60 Days. General Hints. First things first-eggs should hatch in 21 days, though some may hatch a day or 2 early and some a day or 2 late, after the incubation period began. <P> It takes 21 days on average for an egg to hatch once incubation begins. Before placing the eggs inside, turn on the heat source and measure the temperature and humidity over a 24-hour period, making adjustments as necessary to create the optimal environment. Hatching rates on eggs straight from the coop are often in the 75 to 90 percent range; with mail-order eggs, there is no guarantee that any will hatch. When picking eggs to incubate, use those that are clean, well-formed and full-size. <P> If for some reason the temperature has dropped below the correct temperature on a few occasions, you could find some of your eggs only hatching on day 22, 23, or even on day 24 or 25. Whereas fertilized chicken eggs usually take exactly 21 days to hatch, most duck eggs take 28 days, apart from Muscovy ducks. As a general rule of thumb, the eggs of Muscovy ducks take 35 days, but once again, it can vary slightly depending on conditions. Candling fertile chicken eggs during incubation. Once fertilized chicken eggs have been under a brooding hen or in an incubator for a period of about three or four days, you can candle the eggs to see if they've started developing. <P> Turning. Turning is essential during the first 14 days of incubation and should be continued until 3 days prior to the eggs expected hatch day. If hand turning, always turn the eggs an uneven number of times a day, so the eggs do not spent two nights in a row in the same position. First things first-eggs should hatch in 21 days, though some may hatch a day or 2 early and some a day or 2 late, after the incubation period began. <P> Candle the eggs after 7 to 10 days. Candling the eggs is when you use a light source to view how much space the embryo occupies within an egg. After 7 to 10 days, you should see development of the embryo. Candling allows you to remove eggs with embryos that are not viable. 1 A broody hen can be used to incubate and hatch chicken eggs, even if she didn't lay the eggs herself. 2 This is a great, natural option for hatching eggs. 3 Just make sure you choose a broody breed to hatch your eggs, popular broody breeds include Silkies, Cochins, Orpingtons and Old English Games. <P> 6. Record the day and how many eggs you've incubated on a calendar. You should be able to estimate your hatch date based on average incubation times for the bird species you want to hatch. For example, chicken eggs typically take 21 days to hatch, whereas many duck varieties and peafowl may take 28 days. 1 Consider how many eggs you want to incubate. 2 Note that it is very rare for all of the incubated eggs to hatch and that certain species have higher viability than others. 3 You should expect about 50-75% of the fertile eggs will hatch, although it possible that this could be higher. <P> Temperature: The eggs need to be kept at 99.5 degrees at all times; just one degree higher or lower for a few hours can terminate the embryo. Humidity: 40 to 50 percent humidity must be maintained for the first 18 days; 65 to 75 percent humidity is needed for the final days before hatching. Hatching rates on eggs straight from the coop are often in the 75 to 90 percent range; with mail-order eggs, there is no guarantee that any will hatch. When picking eggs to incubate, use those that are clean, well-formed and full-size. <P> Fertility and Candling. Natural fertility is rarely 100% - it may vary from 55% to 95% with season, condition and type of birds. You might be safe to expect that 50% to 75% of the fertile eggs will hatch, though 90%-100% hatches can and does happen. With shipped eggs the hatch rate is approximately 50% overall. First things first-eggs should hatch in 21 days, though some may hatch a day or 2 early and some a day or 2 late, after the incubation period began.

how much do members in the senate make in salary
|
<P> House of Representatives 41 The maximum annual salary for employees of committees, as revised in the 2009 pay order, is $172,500 for up to three staff members (two majority and one minority); $170,696 for up to nine staff members (six majority and three minority); and a maximum of $168,411 for other staff. <P> That’s a fraction of the current salary for rank and file House and Senate members, which is $165,200 per year. The pensions of the 143 former members who retired under the newer Federal Employees’ Retirement System (FERS) average even less. Their pensions averaged $35,952, according to the CRS. <P> That, too, is wrong. Salaries and benefits of members of the U.S. Congress have been the source of taxpayer unhappiness and myths over the years. Here are some facts for your consideration. As of 2015, the base salary for all rank-and-file members of the U.S. House and Senate is $174,000 per year, plus benefits. Salaries have not been increased since 2009. Compared to private-sector salaries, the salaries of members of Congress is lower than many mid-level executives and managers. Also See: The 10 Wealthiest Members of Congress.

shoulder ligaments anatomy
|
<P> With this tool, they have been able to identify and treat a shoulder injury called a glenoid labrum tear. Anatomy. The shoulder joint has three bones: the shoulder blade (scapula), the collarbone (clavicle), and the upper arm bone (humerus). The head of the upper arm bone (humeral head) rests in a shallow socket in the shoulder blade called the glenoid. <P> The “ball” is the head of the humerus and the “socket” is theglenoid part of the shoulder blade (scapula).The anatomy of the shoulder is unique – it has a relatively shallow socket which results in amazing flexibility and range of motion to the shoulder joint which is unparalleled elsewhere in the body. <P> The shoulder joint also known as the glenohumeral joint, is the major joint of the shoulder, but can more broadly include the acromioclavicular joint. In human anatomy, the shoulder joint comprises the part of the body where the humerus attaches to the scapula, the head sitting in the glenoid cavity. The shoulder is the group of structures in the region of the joint. There are two kinds of cartilage in the joint. <P> The human shoulder is made up of three bones: the clavicle (collarbone), the scapula (shoulder blade), and the humerus (upper arm bone) as well as associated muscles, ligaments and tendons. The articulations between the bones of the shoulder make up the shoulder joints. In human anatomy, the shoulder joint comprises the part of the body where the humerus attaches to the scapula, the head sitting in the glenoid cavity. The shoulder is the group of structures in the region of the joint. There are two kinds of cartilage in <P> The shoulder is not a single joint, but a complex arrangement of bones, ligaments, muscles, and tendons that is better called the shoulder girdle. The primary function of the shoulder girdle is to give strength and range of motion to the arm. The shoulder girdle includes three bones—the scapula, clavicle and humerus. If you think of the shoulder in layers, the deepest layer is bone, then ligaments of the joint capsule, and the tendons and muscles are on top. Nerves and blood vessels supply the muscles and bones of the shoulder. <P> The muscles and tendons of the rotator cuff form a sleeve around the anterior, superior, and posterior humeral head and glenoid cavity of the shoulder by compressing the glenohumeral joint. In addition to stabilization, the rotator cuff provides the shoulder with tremendous mobility. Shoulder anatomy, lateral view. The shoulder complex is composed of many different tissue types, and it is the connective tissue that provides the supportive framework for the shoulder's many functions. The different types of connective tissues in the shoulder are bone, articular cartilage, ligaments, joint capsules, and bursa (see Gross Anatomy). <P> The most flexible joint in the entire human body, our shoulder joint is formed by the union of the humerus, the scapula (or shoulder blade), and the clavicle (or collarbone). Commonly thought of as a single joint, the shoulder is actually made up of two separate joints-the glenohumeral and acromioclavicular joints. <P> The rotator cuff is a group of tendons and muscles in the shoulder, connecting the upper arm (humerus) to the shoulder blade (scapula). The rotator cuff tendons provide stability to the shoulder; the muscles allow the shoulder to rotate. The muscles in the rotator cuff include: 1 Teres minor. 2 Infraspinatus. 3 Supraspinatus.

what resolution was passed to allow johnson to start war in vietnam
|
<P> The American public was incensed, and Johnson requested from Congress the authority to take “all necessary steps” to protect U.S. interests in Vietnam. Congress complied and passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution in August 1964. <P> Eisenhower and Kennedy went to war against the communists in SOUTH Vietnam, but President Johnson (LBJ) commenced bombing NORTH Vietnam after naval forces of NORTH Vietnam attacked US destroyers in the Tonkin Gulf in '64. <P> The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution was a joint resolution of the U.S. Congress passed on August 7, 1964 in direct response to a minor naval engagement known as the Gulf of Tonkin Incident. <P> Congress was also attempting to correct a mistake of its own. In August 1964, after a confrontation between U.S. and North Vietnamese ships in the Gulf of Tonkin, Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution giving President Lyndon B. Johnson free rein to conduct the Vietnam War as he saw fit. <P> Vietnam War-Americanization of the War: In August 1964, a US warship was attacked by North Vietnamese torpedo boats in the Gulf of Tonkin. Following this attack, Congress passed the Southeast Asia Resolution which allowed President Lyndon Johnson to conduct military operations in the region without a declaration of war. <P> U.S. Involvement in the Vietnam War: the Gulf of Tonkin and Escalation, 1964. In early August 1964, two U.S. destroyers stationed in the Gulf of Tonkin in Vietnam radioed that they had been fired upon by North Vietnamese forces. In response to these reported incidents, President Lyndon B. Johnson requested permission from the U.S. Congress to increase the U.S. military presence in Indochina. <P> In August 1964, Congress passed the Tonkin ∇ Gulf Resolution—or Southeast Asia Resolution, as it is officially known—the congressional decree that gave Johnson a broad mandate to wage war in Vietnam. Its passage was a pivotal moment in the war and arguably the tipping point for the disaster that followed.

why sugar is compound
|
<P> Best Answer: If you mean, table sugar, it's a compound -- sucrose. One molecule of it consists of 12 C's, 11 O's and 22 H's. If you mean, generic sugar, that can be any single one of many different sugars (making it also a compound), or a mixture of two or more of them. Besides sucrose, other common sugars include glucose (aka dextrose), lactose, fructose, galactose, maltose, mannose, etc. <P> A compound is a substance composed of two or more different types of atom held together of chemical bonds. In the case of sucrose, it is made of the elements carbon, oxygen and hydrogen and the atoms are held together by covalent bonds. All sugars are compounds. Presumably you are talking about common table sugar. It is called sucrose and it is a disaccharide.

The elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are bonded chemically together to form tab … le sugar, or sucrose. 1 The Periodic Table of Elements Life is sustained by a number of chemical elements. <P> Glucose. Glucose is a carbohydrate, and is the most important simple sugar in human metabolism. Glucose is called a simple sugar or a monosaccharide because it is one of the smallest units which has the characteristics of this class of carbohydrates. Glucose is also sometimes called dextrose. Corn syrup is primarily glucose. Glucose is one of the primary molecules which serve as energy sources for plants and animals. It is found in the sap of plants, and is found in the human bloodstream where it is referred to as blood sugar. <P> The white stuff we know as sugar is sucrose, a molecule composed of 12 atoms of carbon, 22 atoms of hydrogen, and 11 atoms of oxygen (C12H22O11). Like all compounds made from these three elements, sugar is a carbohydrate. Its found naturally in most plants, but especially in sugarcane and sugar beetshence their names. Sucrose is actually two simpler sugars stuck together: fructose and glucose. <P> Sugar is made of more than one element, so it is a compound.

how to cook a smoked pork picnic shoulder in the oven
|
<P> Step 5. Put the picnic ham into the middle of the oven. Roast it for 18 to 22 minutes per lb. Cooking times are approximations, as they vary by oven and according to the size of the roast. Picnic hams and other meat on the bone cook a bit faster than boneless meat. <P> Directions. 1 Turn oven on to 300. 2 Place pork in lasagne pan fat side up. ( 3 can be placed on a rack,optional). 4 Score fat lightly in a diamond pattern, not piercing through to the meat. 5 Rub salt, pepper and garlic on the fat. 6 Cover lightly with tin foil and roast for 3 hours, this gets the fat melting. 1 <P> Cook's bone-in smoked picnics are fully cooked and ready to eat, or you may heat them using the following directions. If frozen, thaw in refrigerator for 1 to 2 days before heating. Heat oven to 325°F. Remove all packaging materials. Place picnic on rack in shallow roasting pan (FAT SIDE UP). Add 1 cup water to pan and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Heat 20 to 25 minutes per pound. <P> The best way to do this is to place the ham on a rack in a roasting pan. Add water to the bottom of the pan and cover tightly with aluminum foil (cover the pan with the ham). Cook approximately 12 to 15 minutes per pound for a whole or boneless ham and approximately 18 to 20 minutes per pound for a half ham. <P> Step 4. Braise the pork shoulder at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for about 2 1/3 to three hours in your oven or on the Low setting in your crockpot all day. Test with a meat thermometer to make sure the internal temperature reads at least 170 degrees Fahrenheit. Step 2. Set the pork shoulder on a rack in a shallow roasting pan to allow fat to drip off the meat during roasting. Insert an oven-proof meat thermometer into a meaty section the shoulder roast; avoid placing it near a bone. <P> Step 4. Set your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, preheat and then set the roasting pan in your oven. Because this is a dry-heat method of cooking, do not cover the pork shoulder or add any liquid to the roasting pan. Step 2. Set the pork shoulder on a rack in a shallow roasting pan to allow fat to drip off the meat during roasting. Insert an oven-proof meat thermometer into a meaty section the shoulder roast; avoid placing it near a bone. <P> (3- to 4-lb) bone-in fresh pork shoulder picnic 2 garlic cloves, cut into slivers 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 1/2 lb onions (5 or 6 medium), halved lengthwise, then cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices 3/4 cup apple cider (unfiltered is the best) Preheat oven to 325°F. Lucky you! Let the meat come to room temperature and make a dry rub from these ingredients or cut the recipe in half: 1/4 cup cumin 1/4 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup paprika 1/4 cup chili powder 1 tbsp red pepper 1/4 cup salt 1/4 cup black pepper 1 tsp onion powder 1 tsp garlic and rub it into the meat. <P> Cover the pork with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or up to overnight. Allow the meat to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking. Preheat the oven to 350F. Roast the pork for 4 hours, uncovered, until the skin is crispy-brown. <P> • Leave the netting on the meat; do not remove it at this time. • Place the meat skin side up in the pan. • Put the lid on the roasting pan and place it in the oven. • The ham should cook about 22 minutes per pound of weight or until the meat thermometer registers 170F. • My 3.7 kg ham took 4.5 hours to reach 170F. • During the last half hour, take out the ham [be careful it’s hot] and place it on a tray.

what are the functions of the cell body
|
<P> Cells are the basic building blocks of all living things. The human body is composed of trillions of cells. They provide structure for the body, take in nutrients from food, convert those nutrients into energy, and carry out specialized functions. Cells also contain the body’s hereditary material and can make copies of themselves. <P> Mitochondria are the organelles that function as the cell powerhouse, generating ATP, the universal form of energy used by all cells. It converts food nutrients such as glucose, to a fuel (ATP) that the cells of the body can use. Mitochondria are tiny sac-like structures found near the nucleus. Although there are specialized cells-both in structure and function-within the body, all cells have similarities in their structural organization and metabolic needs (such as maintaining energy levels via conversion of carbohydrate to ATP and using genes to create and maintain proteins). <P> The cell body, called the SOMA, is the main part of the neuron. It is the main metabolic center or region of the neuron. The neuron has 3 parts: DENDRITES (inputs), SOMA (ce … ll body), and AXON (output). The axon is the part which FIRES when sufficient inputs reach it at the axon hillock. 1 person found this useful. Confidence votes 81. The main part of the neuron, containing the nucleus and other organelles and serving as the site of the cell's metabolic reactions; processes input from the dendrites and if input is large enough relays to the axon, where an impulse is initiated. <P> Body functions are the physiological or psychological functions of body systems. The body's functions are ultimately its cells' functions. Survival is the body's most important business. Survival depends on the body's maintaining or restoring homeostasis, a state of relative constancy, of its internal environment. <P> Human body has a number of cells and related tissues. Since the Cell is the basic unit of any tissue, it decides the type, nature and function of the tissues. A group of different types of cells form tissues in the human body and one or more types of tissues form organs. For more detailed study go through an anatomy & physiology book. These body organs working in mutual manner form the organ system <P> SUMMARY. The cell body of a neuron contains the nucleus and lysosomes and is the site of synthesis and degradation of virtually all neuronal proteins and membranes. Axons are long processes specialized for the conduction of action potentials away from the neuronal cell body. Each has profusely branched dendrites, (more...). The cell body contains the nucleus and is the site of synthesis of virtually all neuronal proteins and membranes. Some proteins are synthesized in dendrites, but no proteins are made in axons and axon terminals, which do not contain ribosomes. <P> 5. Mitochondrium-this is the part of the cell responsible for the supply of energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Neurons need an enormous amount of energy. The brain is one of the most metabolically active tissues in the body. In man, for example, the brain uses 40 ml of oxygen per minute. With ribosomes, the ER is important for protein synthesis. Nissl Bodies-Groups of ribosomes used for protein synthesis. Cytosol-Is the watery and salty fluid with a potassium-rich solution inside the cell containing enzymes responsible for the metabolism of the cell. <P> An action potential originates at the axon hillock, the junction of the axon and cell body, and is actively conducted down the axon into the axon terminals, small branches of the axon that form the synapses, or connections, with other cells (Figure 21-2b). Each has profusely branched dendrites, (more...). The cell body contains the nucleus and is the site of synthesis of virtually all neuronal proteins and membranes. Some proteins are synthesized in dendrites, but no proteins are made in axons and axon terminals, which do not contain ribosomes. <P> The soma (pl. somata or somas), perikaryon (pl. perikarya), cyton, or cell body is the bulbous end of a neuron, containing the cell nucleus. The word soma comes from the Greek σῶμα, meaning body.

<P> In addition to these lines Amtrak owns station and yard tracks in Chicago, Los Angeles, New Orleans, New York City, Oakland (Kirkham Street Yard), Orlando, Portland, Oregon, Saint Paul, Seattle, and Washington, D.C. Amtrak leases station and yard tracks in Hialeah, near Miami, Florida, from the State of Florida. Kummant makes a comparison of public subsidies: it's like $40 a passenger for Amtrak and $500 to $700 per automobile.. Moreover, Amtrak provides all of its own security, while airport security is a separate federal subsidy. <P> The National Railroad Passenger Corporation, doing business as Amtrak, is a partially government-funded American passenger railroad service. It is operated and managed as a for-profit corporation, and provides medium-and long-distance intercity service in the contiguous United States. Kummant makes a comparison of public subsidies: it's like $40 a passenger for Amtrak and $500 to $700 per automobile.. Moreover, Amtrak provides all of its own security, while airport security is a separate federal subsidy. <P> The average Amtrak salary ranges from approximately $17,000 per year for Reservation Agent to $175,000 per year for Chief Engineer. Average Amtrak hourly pay ranges from approximately $11.02 per hour for Customer Service Team Lead to $28.68 per hour for Mechanic. Salary information comes from 268 data points collected directly from employees, users, and jobs on Indeed. <P> Amtrak owns the Chicago Union Station Company (Chicago Union Station) and New York Penn Station. It has a 99.7% interest in the Washington Terminal Company (tracks around Washington Union Station) and 99% of 30th Street Limited (Philadelphia 30th Street Station). Also owned by Amtrak is Passenger Railroad Insurance. Kummant makes a comparison of public subsidies: it's like $40 a passenger for Amtrak and $500 to $700 per automobile.. Moreover, Amtrak provides all of its own security, while airport security is a separate federal subsidy. <P> Amtrak Salary. Amtrak average salary is $37,170, median salary is $37,170 with a salary range from $37,170 to $37,170. Amtrak salaries are collected from government agencies and companies. Each salary is associated with a real job position. Amtrak salary statistics is not exclusive and is for reference only. <P> Paying Newly Hired Employees. In conjunction with Amtrak’s probationary periods, new hires are further discriminated against by reduced vacation entitlements, vesting periods for unemployment and sickness annuities, and entry rates of pay. Railroad employers have fought long and hard to choke the earnings of workers. (b) For the second 12 calendar months of employment employees will be paid 95% of the applicable rates of pay (including COLA). (c) At the conclusion of the second period specified in (b) above, employees will be paid at 100 <P> The following table illustrates pay rates resulting from the March 25, 2014 PRLBC/Amtrak arbitration. This is a general list representative of the most common BMWED positions. The agreement provided a 1.5% increase effective July 1, 2014, and a 3% increase (compounded) effective January 1, 2015. (b) For the second 12 calendar months of employment employees will be paid 95% of the applicable rates of pay (including COLA). (c) At the conclusion of the second period specified in (b) above, employees will be paid at 100 <P> Therefore, Amtrak is subsidizing the freight railroads' contribution to Railroad Retirement; Amtrak's excess Railroad Retirement payments (about $150 million a year) is what Amtrak contributes to Railroad Retirement for workers that Amtrak never employed.

what is oceania considered
|
<P> Oceania is one of eight terrestrial ecozones, which constitute the major ecological regions of the planet. The Oceania ecozone includes all of Micronesia, Fiji, and all of Polynesia except New Zealand. New Zealand, New Guinea, Melanesia apart from Fiji, and Australia constitute the separate Australasian ecozone. The Malay Archipelago is part of the Indomalaya ecozone. In geopolitical terms, however, New Zealand, the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and New Caledonia are almost always considered part of Oceania, and Australia and Papua New Guinea are usually considered part of Oceania too. The rest are Maluku Islands and Papua, as Puncak Jaya is often considered the highest peak in Oceania. <P> Africa, the Americas, Antarctica, Asia, Australia together with Oceania, and Europe are considered to be Continents. The term continent is used to differentiate between the various large areas of the earth into which all the land surface of Earth is divided. <P> As an ecozone, Oceania includes all of Micronesia, Fiji, and all of Polynesia except New Zealand. New Zealand, along with New Guinea and nearby islands, part of Philippines islands, Australia, the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, and New Caledonia, constitute the separate Australasian ecozone. In geopolitical terms, however, New Zealand, the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and New Caledonia are almost always considered part of Oceania, and Australia and Papua New Guinea are usually considered part of Oceania too. The rest are Maluku Islands and Papua, as Puncak Jaya is often considered the highest peak in Oceania. <P> Biogeographically, Oceania is used as a synonym for either the Australasian ecozone (Wallacea and Australasia) or the Pacific ecozone (Melanesia, Polynesia, and Micronesia apart either from New Zealand or from mainland New Guinea). In geopolitical terms, however, New Zealand, the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and New Caledonia are almost always considered part of Oceania, and Australia and Papua New Guinea are usually considered part of Oceania too. The rest are Maluku Islands and Papua, as Puncak Jaya is often considered the highest peak in Oceania. <P> Oceania is the collective name for the lands of the Pacific Ocean, including Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia. Oceania is a convenient way to name these areas, which, with the exception of Australia, are not part of any continent. But Oceania itself is not a continent. A continent is a landmass with specific characteristics. Each continent is unique, but they are all characterized by two features: ancient, geologically stable regions and younger geologically active areas.

what is welted

<P> The welt – On better-constructed shoes, the welt is a strip of leather which runs along the perimeter of the outsole. Its primary function is for attaching the upper to the outsole. The last – A three-dimensional model of a foot, the last is what gives a shoe its shape. Of the two primary welting methods, blake is the simplest and most common. It also is a byproduct of the industrial revolution because the stitching is done on the inside of the shoe – making it impossible to do by hand. For a blake welt, the upper is wrapped around the insole and attached between it and <P> Full Definition of WELT. 1. : a strip between a shoe sole and upper through which they are stitched or stapled together. 2. : a doubled edge, strip, insert, or seam (as on a garment) for ornament or reinforcement. 3. a: a ridge or lump raised on the body (as by a blow or allergic reaction) b: a heavy blow. <P> But just like many other signals, it can be abused. First, even most Goodyear-welted shoes are indirectly glued, for the welt is attached to a rib of canvas that is glued to the sole. Second, stitching the lower sole to the welt is a matter of minutes for a skilled maker, so it doesn't add much costs. They have their benefits just as Goodyear welted shoes do, though I find Goodyear welted have the most advantages. Some of the really expensive Italian shoes even use adhesive construction, which is no better than the cheap shoes that are glued together. <P> A Goodyear welt is stitched to the upper and a strip of canvas (known as gemming) which is cemented to the insole of a shoe as an attach-point for the sole. The upper part of the shoe is shaped over the last and fastened on by sewing a leather, linen or synthetic strip (also known as the welt) to the inner and upper sole. As well as using a welt, a thread is used to hold the material firmly together. The welt forms a cavity which is then filled with a cork material. <P> 1. A strip, as of leather or other material, stitched into a shoe between the sole and the upper. 2. A tape or covered cord sewn into a seam as reinforcement or trimming. 3. a.

A Goodyear welt is a strip of leather, rubber, or plastic that runs along the perimeter of a shoe outsole. The machinery used for the process was invented in 1869 by Charles Goodyear, Jr., the son of Charles Goodyear. Goodyear construction is time-consuming but is considered the best method of shoe construction. The upper part of the shoe is shaped over the last and fastened on by sewing a leather, linen or synthetic strip (also known as the welt) to the inner and upper sole. As well as using a welt, a thread is used to hold the material firmly together.

<P> List of Foods Containing Good Bacteria. Yogurt is rich in good bacteria. Photo Credit George Doyle/Stockbyte/Getty Images. When you think of bacteria your first thoughts maybe of disease and sickness, but some bacteria are necessary for human health and can even help prevent disease. These bacteria are known as probiotics. Photo Credit oksix/iStock/Getty Images. Though yogurt may be the most well-known source of probiotics, kefir is actually a better source of the healthy bacteria, with three times more probiotic amount present than yogurt. <P> While probiotic-foods have live bacteria, prebiotic foods feed the good bacteria already living in your gut. You can find prebiotics in items such as asparagus, Jerusalem artichokes, bananas, oatmeal, red wine, honey, maple syrup, and legumes. Choose the unpasteurized kind, because pasteurization (used to treat most supermarket sauerkraut) kills active, good bacteria. This sour, salty food -- and the similar but spicy Korean dish, kimchi -- is also loaded with immune-boosting vitamins that may help ward off infection. <P> Foods rich in good bacteria include kefir, yogurt, miso soup, kombucha tea and fermented foods. Photo Credit oksix/iStock/Getty Images. Though yogurt may be the most well-known source of probiotics, kefir is actually a better source of the healthy bacteria, with three times more probiotic amount present than yogurt. <P> 2. Kefir. Similar to yogurt, this fermented dairy product is a unique combination of goat’s milk and fermented kefir grains. High in lactobacilli and bifidus bacteria, kefir is also rich in antioxidants. Look for a good, organic version at your local health food shop. 1. One of the best probiotic foods is live-cultured yogurt, especially handmade. Look for brands made from goat’s milk that have been infused with extra forms of probiotics like lactobacillus or acidophilus. Goat’s milk and cheese are particularly high in probiotics like thermophillus, bifudus, bulgaricus and acidophilus <P> Yogurt. Yogurt is one of the most familiar sources of probiotics -- good bacteria that keep a healthy balance in your gut. Studies suggest that probiotics can help ease lactose intolerance. They also may help tame gas, diarrhea, and other digestive problems. Choose the unpasteurized kind, because pasteurization (used to treat most supermarket sauerkraut) kills active, good bacteria. This sour, salty food -- and the similar but spicy Korean dish, kimchi -- is also loaded with immune-boosting vitamins that may help ward off infection. <P> Lactobacillus. There are more than 80 species of the Lactobacillus genus of probiotics. One of these species, acidophilus, is the most frequently used good bacterium, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center. Lactobacillus acidophilus, also called L. acidophilus, resides in the intestines where it helps in the digestion of food. As part of the digestion process, L. acidophilus produces lactic acid and hydrogen peroxide, which create unfavorable conditions for the growth of harmful bacteria. Good bacteria, also called probiotics, are similar to bacteria that reside naturally in your body. Probiotics may be beneficial to your health, and they are available in yogurt or in various dietary supplements, according to the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine <P> Probiotics are beneficial forms of gut bacteria that help stimulate the natural digestive juices and enzymes that keep our digestive organs functioning properly. In addition to taking a probiotic supplement, you can also eat probiotic foods that are a host to these live bacterium. 1.

how much does brake service cost
|
<P> Parts: $145 - $213. The average cost for a brake pad and rotor replacement is between $297 to $406. Labor costs are estimated between $152 to $193 while parts are priced between $145 to $213. Get a personalized estimate based on your location and specific car. Estimate does not include taxes and fees. Brake rotors should be measured at every brake pad replacement. If found to be at or below the manufacturer's minimum thickness specification, they will require replacement. These measurements should always be noted on your repair order. We recommend braking gently for the first 40 to 50 miles of driving on new pads. <P> 1 For work on front and back brakes, CostHelper readers reported paying $273-$1,025 for an average of $567 at standard repair shops, or $280-$935 for an average of $578 at dealerships. He charged me $70 for the part and $60 for the labor. The defogger button needed to be fixed and that cost me $50. In all it is $480. I really wasn't expecting these extensive and expensive repairs since the school year and book costs are coming up in 2 weeks. <P> 1 CostHelper readers who bought the needed replacement parts and then paid a mobile mechanic or one at a local shop or gas station to install them report total costs of $80-$430, for an average of $251. He charged me $70 for the part and $60 for the labor. The defogger button needed to be fixed and that cost me $50. In all it is $480. I really wasn't expecting these extensive and expensive repairs since the school year and book costs are coming up in 2 weeks. <P> Sample brake service estimate. Take a typical brake job, for example. It might take your mechanic one hour to install new brake pads on a car. Based on a $50 per hour straight rate, the brake service cost will be $50 + price of new brake pads. On the other hand, the book rate may indicate that it usually takes 90 minutes to complete the brake job. You would be charged $75 for service + price of new brake pads. So, with the book rate example, if the mechanic only needs one hour to change the brake pads, you will still be charged for 90 minutes of labor. In most cases the garage will benefit more than the client under the book rate system <P> 1 Edmunds provides do-it-yourself instructions for replacing brake pads, calling it an easier-than-expected DIY project that requires standard tools and takes about an hour, for a savings of about $250 in labor costs on most cars. He charged me $70 for the part and $60 for the labor. The defogger button needed to be fixed and that cost me $50. In all it is $480. I really wasn't expecting these extensive and expensive repairs since the school year and book costs are coming up in 2 weeks. <P> 1 CostHelper readers report paying $23-$285 for an average of $104 for materials for brakes on one axle, and $135-$439 for all parts for both front and back brakes, for an average of $304. He charged me $70 for the part and $60 for the labor. The defogger button needed to be fixed and that cost me $50. In all it is $480. I really wasn't expecting these extensive and expensive repairs since the school year and book costs are coming up in 2 weeks. <P> The average cost of master cylinder repair is usually between $200 and $300, but it can be more, again, depending on the scope of the fix. If individual wheel cylinders need to be replaced, the cost will go up. The repair price for an entire brake job—rotors, calipers, drums, pads, cylinders—can run you $750 or more. Therefore, it's best to stay on top of brake repair and get the pads replaced when you hear squeaking. Components like master cylinders wear down after time, so eventually it will have to be replaced <P> Rotors will cost between $30 and $60 per wheel. This repair can be done at home as well, though a bit more work is required than in a simple pad replacement. If your brake rotors haven't been rotated or replaced in a while, they might be fused to the internals of your wheel. The Average Cost of Brake Repair.

what is the oort cloud
|
<P> Definition: The Oort Cloud is a theoretical spherical cloud of predominantly icy planetesimals that is believed to surround the Sun at a distance of up to around 100,000 AU (2 ly). In time, these observations led to the theory that far beyond the Sun and planets, there exists a large cloud of icy material and rock where most of these comets come from. This existence of this cloud, which is known as the Oort Cloud (after its principal theoretical founder), remains unproven. <P> A giant shell of icy bodies known as the Oort Cloud encircles the solar system. When its inhabitants interact with passing stars, molecular clouds, and gravity from the galaxy, they may find themselves spiraling inward toward the sun, or cast completely out of the solar system into distant regions of space. The two regions vary primarily in terms of distance and location. The Kuiper Belt orbits in approximately the same plane as the planets, ranging from 30 to 50 times as far from the Sun as Earth. But the Oort Cloud is a shell that surrounds the entire solar system, and is a hundred times as distant. <P> The Oort Cloud is an extended shell of icy objects that exist in the outermost reaches of the solar system. It is named after astronomer Jan Oort, who first theorized its existence. The Oort Cloud is roughly spherical, and is the origin of most of the long-period comets that have been observed. This cloud of particles is theorized to be the remains of the disc of material that formed the Sun and planets. Astronomers now refer to those primeval objects as a protoplanetary disk <P> The Oort cloud is thought to comprise two regions: a spherical outer Oort cloud and a disc-shaped inner Oort cloud, or Hills cloud. Objects in the Oort cloud are largely composed of ices, such as water, ammonia, and methane. Astronomers conjecture that the matter composing the Oort cloud formed closer to the Sun and was scattered far into space by the gravitational effects of the giant planets early in the Solar System's evolution. The Kuiper belt and the scattered disc, the other two reservoirs of trans-Neptunian objects, are less than one thousandth as far from the Sun as the Oort cloud. The outer limit of the Oort cloud defines the cosmographical boundary of the Solar System and the region of the Sun's gravitational dominance. <P> The outer Oort cloud is only loosely bound to the solar system – this means that it is easily effected by gravitational pull from passing stars and the Milky Way galaxy. In fact, the outer limit of the Oort cloud defines the cosmographical boundary of the solar system on the edges of the Sun’s gravitational dominance. The Kuiper Belt and the scattered disc are less than one thousandth as far from the Sun as the Oort cloud is. It is believed that this cloud of particles are the remains of the disc material which formed the Sun and the eight planets. <P> Structure and Composition: The Oort Cloud is thought to extend from between 2,000 and 5,000 AU (0.03 and 0.08 ly) to as far as 50,000 AU (0.79 ly) from the Sun, though some estimates place the outer edge as far as 100,000 and 200,000 AU (1.58 and 3.16 ly). In time, these observations led to the theory that far beyond the Sun and planets, there exists a large cloud of icy material and rock where most of these comets come from. This existence of this cloud, which is known as the Oort Cloud (after its principal theoretical founder), remains unproven. <P> The Oort Cloud is a hypothetical sphere of comets left over from the birth of the solar system. It is named after the scientist who proposed its existence, and lies in a loose orbit far outside our Solar System. <P> Definition of OORT CLOUD. : a spherical shell of cometary bodies believed to surround the sun far beyond the orbits of the outermost planets and from which some are dislodged when perturbed to fall toward the sun — compare kuiper belt. See Oort cloud defined for kids. ADVERTISEMENT. <P> Oort cloud. A sphere-shaped mass of comets that makes up the outer edge of the solar system, surrounding the Kuiper belt and the planets. The more than 100 billion comets in this region orbit the sun at a distance of one to two light-years. <P> All rights reserved. The Oort cloud is an immense spherical cloud surrounding the planetary system and extending approximately 3 light years, about 30 trillion kilometers from the Sun. This vast distance is considered the edge of the Sun's orb of physical, gravitational, or dynamical influence. The Oort Cloud.

vitamins or minerals that help knees
|
<P> Joint Support. Joint support products should contain therapeutic amounts of all of the above vitamins and minerals as well as other ingredients to help you to with musculoskeletal problems and to deal with muscle aches, pains and injuries. For example, ample amounts of vitamin B12 are also included in these products. <P> A Stacy Wiegman, PharmD, Pharmacy, answered. Several vitamins and minerals have been studied for their protective effects on the joints. They include copper, selenium and vitamins C and D. Copper is a trace mineral available in shellfish, organ meats, beans and several other foods. <P> Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, may also help protect and strengthen joints by preventing free radical damage to cells. The vitamin also helps form the protein in tendons, ligaments and other tissues. You can get vitamin C in fruit -- especially oranges and grapefruits -- and many vegetables. <P> Some animal research indicates that taking copper supplements may help slow or prevent arthritis, but more study is needed to prove this benefit occurs in humans. Selenium is a trace mineral found in tuna, whole grains, chicken, Brazil nuts and sunflower seeds. <P> A rheumatoid arthritis diet that involves plenty of multi vitamins and minerals are highly recommended. Increasing the intake of vitamin and minerals can definitely help to relieve the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. The consumption of vitamins and minerals can be increased through either diet or supplement or both. The effect of vitamin and minerals deficiency, especially for rheumatoid arthritis patients, will have a very serious implication to the health of the joints. <P> Several supplements may help manage joint pain from arthritis. Glucosamine, chondroitin, omega-3, and green tea are just a few of them. Glucosamine. Glucosamine helps keep the cartilage in joints healthy and may have an anti-inflammatory effect.

<P> The wc (word count) command in Unix/Linux operating systems is used to find out number of newline count, word count, byte and characters count in a files specified by the file arguments. The syntax of wc command as shown below. The following are the options and usage provided by the command. 2. To count number of newlines in a file use the option ‘ -l ‘, which prints the number of lines from a given file. Say, the following command will display the count of newlines in a file. In the output the first filed assigned as count and second field is the name of file <P> Count Number of Lines. To count number of newlines in a file use the option ‘ -l ‘, which prints the number of lines from a given file. Say, the following command will display the count of newlines in a file. In the output the first filed assigned as count and second field is the name of file. 2. To count number of newlines in a file use the option ‘ -l ‘, which prints the number of lines from a given file. Say, the following command will display the count of newlines in a file. <P> In Unix, to get the line, word, or character count of a document, use the wc command. At the Unix shell prompt, enter: Replace filename with the file or files for which you want information. For each file, wc will output three numbers. The first is the line count, the second is the word count, and the third is the character count. For example, if you entered wc .login, the output would be something similar to the following: To narrow the focus of your query, use one or more of the following wc options: <P> wc is the word counter in UNIX and UNIX-like operating systems, you can to use it to count lines in a file, by adding the-l option, so wc-l foo will count the number of lines in foo. Youcan also pipe output from a program like this: ls-l | wc-l, which will tell you how many files are in the current directory. <P> These files can grow quickly. If you want to know how many lines are in a Unix text file, use the wc command. This command shows the number of words, lines and characters are in a particular file. Determine the number of lines by counting the newline -- \n -- characters in a particular file. Open a terminal window or log into an SSH session to access a command prompt. Type the command wc-l filename to show the number of lines in the file. Replace filename with the exact name of the file. Press the Enter key to display the information on the next line. <P> (3) Add line numbers to search results. The -n option adds line numbers to the output: $ grep-n unix examplefile.txt 2:this is line 2 unix This makes it easier to locate the pattern in a large file that doesn't have its own line numbers. (4) Display how many lines contain the search pattern. Another option instructs grep to count the number of times a pattern appears. <P> To split large files into smaller files in Unix, use the split command. At the Unix prompt, enter: Replace filename with the name of the large file you wish to split. Replace prefix with the name you wish to give the small output files. You can exclude [options] , or replace it with either of the following: If you use the-l (a lowercase L) option, replace linenumber with the number of lines you'd like in each of the smaller files (the default is 1,000).

Mirtazapine acts on serotonin and noradrenaline receptors in the brain, and this is how it is thought to improve the symptoms of depression. <P> Mirtazapine is a prescription drug used to treat depression. Mirtazapine (Remeron ®) is a prescription medicine used for the treatment of depression (also known as major depression or clinical depression). Mirtazapine's actions on other types of receptors may cause some of its side effects, such as drowsiness or low blood pressure. Certain receptors decrease the levels of serotonin and norepinephrine released by the nerves. Mirtazapine blocks these inhibitory receptors, causing more to be released <P> Remeron ® (mirtazapine) is a prescription medicine used for the treatment of depression (also known as major depression or clinical depression). It is thought that the antidepressant effects of the drug are due to its actions on serotonin and norepinephrine. These are chemicals used to send messages in between nerves. However, if serotonin or norepinephrine levels become unbalanced, it can cause a variety of conditions, including depression. <P> Mirtazapine is an antidepressant drug prescribed to treat Major Depressive Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and a range of anxiety disorders. Alongside these, it may be prescribed ‘off-label’ to people experiencing prolonged periods of poor sleep.

what were the impacts of the treaty of versailles
|
<P> As a result, by 1919 Germany was no longer the second most economically advanced nation in the world. The immediate economic consequences of the terms of the Treaty of Versailles were a significant concern and added to Germany’s humiliation. Under the terms of the treaty Germany had to pay huge sums in reparations. In 1921, this amount was set at £6.6 billion; a sum that Germany could not pay. <P> The financial impact of the Treaty. The Treaty of Versailles blamed Germany for the First World War. As a result of this Germany was also held accountable for the cost of the war and the Treaty dictated that compensation would have to be paid to the Allies. A detailed evaluation of the impact of the Treaty of Versailles on the German economy. Our excellent online testking-toefl sample test-certification training programs will lead you to success in the testinside-itil training-practice test exam. <P> Posted on. (Answer #1). The biggest negative effect of the Treaty of Versailles was on Germany. The treaty helped lead to German problems in at least two ways. Economically, it saddled Germany with a huge debt in the form of war reparations. This forced Germany to borrow money from the United States in order to pay. <P> One of the chief contributing causes of the Second World War was the Treaty of Versailles (June, 1919), that officially ended the First World War. Its main terms were surrender of ALL German colonies in Africa and the Far East, which would be mandated to Britain, France, Belgium, South Africa, Japan and Australia. <P> The Impact of the Treaty of Versailles. The Treaty of Versailles was the Peace Settlement between the Allies and Germany at the end of the First World War. The German authorities had little choice but to accept the terms of the Treaty presented by 'the Big Three'. This section looks at some of the implications of the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. A detailed evaluation of the impact of the Treaty of Versailles on the German economy. Our excellent online testking-toefl sample test-certification training programs will lead you to success in the testinside-itil training-practice test exam. <P> Mostly, if it isn't all, Germans detested the fact that their government signed the Treaty at all... 6,600 billion was going to be payed as reparations, to the Triple Entente. France, Britain and other countries were given colonies of Germany, land was constantly being taken from them. The Rhineland was abouts to be demilitarised (by Germany)... and these are just a few of the terms of the Treaty... The reparations, alone, was depressing the country. The treaty of Versailles was made up of 10 harsh terms, including number 5 - Germany had to pay $6.6 billion in reparations to the countries that had won the war. Germany didn … 't have this money, so they printed more, therefore creating hyperinflation, so an egg would cost 80 million marks! The effect was pretty bad. <P> France wanted Germany to pay (hence the Treaty), but Britain was worried by how harsh the terms of the Treaty was.. The depression of the Treaty, combined with that of when the World Market had crashed, caused the country to be vulnerable. It's people were desperate for change.... The treaty of Versailles was made up of 10 harsh terms, including number 5 - Germany had to pay $6.6 billion in reparations to the countries that had won the war. Germany didn … 't have this money, so they printed more, therefore creating hyperinflation, so an egg would cost 80 million marks! The effect was pretty bad. <P> Despite Germany’s claim that the terms of the treaty were far too harsh, most historians today agree that the terms, in fact were “relatively lenient.” 30 Henig alludes to this earlier in her book, when she concludes that “the Treaty of Versailles was not excessively harsh on Germany. France feared that not levying harsh enough penalties upon Germany would only make her stronger and she would eventually rise up against France in revenge. So while the British felt that the Treaty of Versailles was too harsh on Germany, France felt as though it were not harsh enough. <P> Play media. The Signing of the Peace Treaty of Versailles. The Treaty of Versailles was a peace treaty between the five nations, France, Germany, Britain, Austria-Hungary and the United States after World War I. The treaty was made in 1919, but the German government did not participate in it.

which describes the cells of a wilted plant
|
<P> A second structure important to all plant cells is the central vacuole, which is a large storage compartment in plant cells. Both the cell wall and the central vacuole help plant cells regulate water movement, or osmosis, to keep plant cells strong enough to withstand a few days without water. A wilting plant! Notice, however, that even in a hypertonic environment, the cell wall helps maintain the shape of the plant cell. As soon as you started watering the plant regularly, the plants were again in an isotonic, or equal, water environment. <P> if the soil around the roots of a plant lacks water or the rate of loss of water is faster than the rate of absorption of water,the cells in the plant will contain less water … and fail to support the plant.the leaves and stems become soft and drop in a condition called wilting. If the plant is watered with fresh water, the osmotic potential would cause water to move into the cells of the plant because the concentration of water outside is greater tha … n the concentration of water inside. <P> Plant cells have certain distinguishing features, including chloroplasts, cell walls, and intracellular vacuoles. Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts; cell walls allow plants to have strong, upright structures; and vacuoles help regulate how cells handle water and storage of other molecules. Besides the presence of chloroplasts, another major difference between plant and animal cells is the presence of a cell wall. The cell wall surrounds the plasma membrane of plant cells and provides tensile strength and protection against mechanical and osmotic stress. It also allows cells to develop turgor pressure, which is the pressure of the cell contents against the cell wall <P> In addition to a cell wall, plant cells also have this very large structure that can take up as much as 80% of the cell's volume. This is called a central vacuole, a large storage compartment in plant cells. A wilting plant! Notice, however, that even in a hypertonic environment, the cell wall helps maintain the shape of the plant cell. As soon as you started watering the plant regularly, the plants were again in an isotonic, or equal, water environment. <P> Plant cells have high concentrations of molecules dissolved in their cytoplasm, which causes water to come into the cell under normal conditions and makes the cell's central vacuole swell and press against the cell wall. With a healthy supply of water, turgor pressure keeps a plant from wilting. In drought, a plant may wilt, but its cell walls help maintain the structural integrity of its stems, leaves, and other structures, despite a shrinking, less turgid vacuole. Besides the presence of chloroplasts, another major difference between plant and animal cells is the presence of a cell wall. The cell wall surrounds the plasma membrane of plant cells and provides tensile strength and protection against mechanical and osmotic stress. It also allows cells to develop turgor pressure, which is the pressure of the cell contents against the cell wall <P> A plant cell differs from an animal cell in having certain distincti … ve structures-cell wall, vacuoles, plasmodesmata and plastids. On the contrary, plant cells lack centrioles and intermediate filaments, which are present in animal cells. If the plant is watered with fresh water, the osmotic potential would cause water to move into the cells of the plant because the concentration of water outside is greater tha … n the concentration of water inside. <P> Plant Cell Walls. All plant cells have a plasma membrane just like an animal cell, which provides the same barrier and regulates transport. However, plant cells also have a specialized structure called the cell wall. The cell wall is a protective layer surrounding the cell on the outside of the plasma membrane. A wilting plant! Notice, however, that even in a hypertonic environment, the cell wall helps maintain the shape of the plant cell. As soon as you started watering the plant regularly, the plants were again in an isotonic, or equal, water environment. <P> The membrane surrounding a vacuole is called tonoplast. A mature plant cell has a single vacuole at the near center of the cell (central vacuole), which contributes to about 30-80 percent of the cell's volume. Cytoplasm Cytoplasm is filled up by cytosol, which is a gelatinous and semitransparent fluid. All the organelles of plant cell are present in this cytoplasm. This part of the plant cell is the site for cell division, glycolysis and many other cellular activities. If the plant is watered with fresh water, the osmotic potential would cause water to move into the cells of the plant because the concentration of water outside is greater tha … n the concentration of water inside. <P> Wilted fig leaves on a branch. Wilting refers to the loss of rigidity of non-woody parts of plants. This occurs when the turgor pressure in non-lignified plant cells falls towards zero, as a result of diminished water in the cells. The rate of loss of water from the plant is greater than the absorption of water in the plant.

<P> The 24-hour clock is the convention of time keeping in which the day runs from midnight to midnight and is divided into 24 hours, indicated by the hours passed since midnight, from 0 to 23. This system is the most commonly used time notation in the world today, and is used by international standard ISO 8601. <P> Online Clock's Explanation for Military Time. 1 Military Time is a time format using a 24 Hour Time system that eliminates the need for the designations A.M. and P.M.. 2 Military Time is sometimes referred to as 24 Hour Time. 3 Military Time leaves less room for confusion than Standard Time. 1 Military Time is a time format using a 24 Hour Time system that eliminates the need for the designations A.M. and P.M.. 2 Military Time is sometimes referred to as 24 Hour Time. <P> 24 hour time– Easy 24 hour clock chart. examples of military TIME v.s 24 hour time. Military time can be converted to 24 hour time by removing the colon. In the U.S. and Canada, the 24 hour clock is called the military time. The military time does not use any symbol to separate hours and minutes, whereas the 24-hour format uses a colon. There is no ante meridiem (a.m.) or post meridiem (p.m.) in military time. examples of military TIME conversion: <P> Midnight. Military time is a method used to measure the time based on a 24 hour clock instead of using two groups of 12 hours each. The military time is more accurate and is more commonly used in the U.S. and Canada than in other countries. Download Excel Military Time Converter-DOWNLOAD NOW. Military time is a method used to measure the time based on a 24 hour clock instead of using two groups of 12 hours each. <P> The main difference between regular and military time is how hours are expressed. Regular time uses numbers 1 to 12 to identify each of the 24 hours in a day. In military time, the hours are numbered from 00 to 23. Under this system, midnight is 00, 1 a.m. is 01, 1 p.m. is 13, and so on. Regular and military time express minutes and seconds in exactly the same way. When converting from regular to military time and vice versa, the minutes and seconds do not change. Regular time requires the use of a.m. and p.m. to clearly identify the time of day. Since military time uses a unique two-digit number to identify each of the 24 hours in a day, a.m. and p.m. are unnecessary. <P> Military Time Chart – About The 24 Hour Clock.

When keeping hours in this fashion, the day starts at midnight and is written as 00:00. The last minute of the day is written as 23:59, or one minute before the next midnight. Sometimes you may see 00:00 written as 24:00. <P> A usage example showing the 12 hour clock vs military time would be a time table showing 4:00 pm to 12:00 midnight. This would be written as 16:00 – 24:00. Another example highlighting the difference between the two would be to show that 10:15 am is written as 10:15 in military time but 2:30 pm is written as 14:30. How to Read Military Time.

what hormone does the hypothalamus produce
|
<P> Overview of Hypothalamic and Pituitary Hormones. The pituitary gland is often portrayed as the master gland of the body. Such praise is justified in the sense that the anterior and posterior pituitary secrete a battery of hormones that collectively influence all cells and affect virtually all physiologic processes. The pituitary gland may be king, but the power behind the throne is clearly the hypothalamus. As alluded to in the last section, some of the neurons within the hypothalamus-neurosecretory neurons-secrete hormones that strictly control secretion of hormones from the anterior pituitar <P> Best Answer: Some of the hormones synthesized and secreted by the special neurons of the hypothalamus are called hypothalamic releasing and inhibiting hormones or factors. They act directly on the tissues of the anterior pituitary gland. <P> The hypothalamus is responsible for certain metabolic processes and other activities of the autonomic nervous system. It synthesizes and secretes certain neurohormones, often called releasing hormones or hypothalamic hormones, and these in turn stimulate or inhibit the secretion of pituitary hormones. <P> Cells in the hypothalamus synthesize at least nine different hormones. The neurons of the gland secrete hormones called neurohormones (= releasing factors) which are given below: 1) Adenocorticotropic Releasing Hormone (ARH) or Corticotropin Releasing Hormone. 2) Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone (TRH). TRH is produced by the hypothalamus in medial neurons of the paraventricular nucleus.[3] At the beginning, it is synthesized as a 242-amino acid precursor polypeptide … that contains 6 copies of the sequence -Gln-His-Pro-Gly-, flanked by Lys-Arg or Arg-Arg sequences. <P> Prolactin, which stimulates milk production Thyroid stimulating hormone, which stimulates the thyroid gland to secrete thyroid hormones. There are also some hormones that are produced by the hypothalamus and then stored in the posterior pituitary gland prior to being released into the bloodstream. The anterior pituitary gland produces the following hormones and releases them into the bloodstream: 1 Adrenocorticotropic hormone, which stimulates the adrenal glands to secrete steroid hormones, principally cortisol. <P> There are two sets of nerve cells in the hypothalamus that produce hormones. One set sends the hormones they produce down through the pituitary stalk to the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland where these hormones are released directly into the bloodstream. These hormones are anti-diuretic hormone and oxytocin. The hypothalamus is located on the undersurface of the brain. It lies just below the thalamus and above the pituitary gland, to which it is attached by a stalk. It is an extremely complex part of the brain containing many regions with highly specialised functions. <P> The hypothalamus by itself does not produce any hormones, but regulates the hormone production by endocrine glands by releasing various controlling factors that act on the pit … uitary and help in maintaining balance. 1. ACRH (adrenocortin releasing hormone) 2. The posterior lobe of the pituitary releases the two hormones it receives from the hypothalamus, called vasopressin and oxytocin, into the bloodstream. Vasopressin plays a role in the fluid balance of the body; oxytocin is thought to pace the onset and progress of labor during childbirth. <P> The hypothalamus by itself does not produce any hormones, but regulates the hormone production by endocrine glands by releasing various controlling factors that act on the pit … uitary and help in maintaining balance. 1. ACRH (adrenocortin releasing hormone) 2. TRH is produced by the hypothalamus in medial neurons of the paraventricular nucleus.[3] At the beginning, it is synthesized as a 242-amino acid precursor polypeptide … that contains 6 copies of the sequence -Gln-His-Pro-Gly-, flanked by Lys-Arg or Arg-Arg sequences. <P> The posterior pituitary is, in effect, a projection of the hypothalamus. It does not produce its own hormones, but only stores and releases the hormones created by the hypothalamus, whereas the anterior pituitary produces and secretes its own hormones. Although the hypothalamus does not produce the hormones of the anterior pituitary as in the posterior pituitary, it plays an important role in their production. Releasing hormones synthesized by hypothalamic neurons travel down axons and diffuse into the primary plexus of the hypophyseal portal system.

where is marble black found
|
<P> Marble is a metamorphic rock that comes from metamorphosed limestone or dolomite. Limestone is mostly calcite or calcium carbonate, CaCO 3. Dolomite CaMg(CO 3) 2 is related to limestone but is rich in magnesium. Marble has a uniform texture (non-foliated). It can be most any color including white, black, reds, greens, and more. It is usually course grained though fine-grained marble is found in some places and is highly prized for creating sculptures. Marble is used as building materials for its strength and beauty. <P> Marble is a metamorphic rock that forms when limestone is subjected to the heat and pressure of metamorphism. A related rock, dolomitic marble, is produced when dolostone is subjected to heat and pressure. Photo Gallery: The Many Uses of Marble. Most marble forms at convergent plate boundaries where large areas of Earth's crust are exposed to regional <P> Color: Marble is usually a light-colored rock. When it is formed from a limestone with very few impurities it will be white in color. Marble that contains impurities such as clay minerals, iron oxides or bituminous material can be bluish, gray, pink, yellow or black in color. Marble of extremely high purity with a bright white color is very useful. A related rock, dolomitic marble, is produced when dolostone is subjected to heat and pressure. Photo Gallery: The Many Uses of Marble. Most marble forms at convergent plate boundaries where large areas of Earth's crust are exposed to regional metamorphism. <P> It can be found in mountainous areas all over the world...in particular, Italy, China, Turkey and Mexico, but also in Belgium, France, Great Britain, Spain, India, and in many parts of the United States, such as Vermont, Colorado, Tennessee and Alabama.

Once cut, turned and polished, its shiny black surface is highly decorative. Ashford Black Marble is a very fine-grained sedimentary rock, and is not a true marble in the geological sense. It can be cut and inlaid with other decorative stones and minerals, using a technique known as pietra dura. Derby Museum has a diagram of Ecton Hill made from Ashford Black Marble and other minerals <P> Marble is a non-foliated metamorphic rock composed of recrystallized carbonate minerals, most commonly calcite or dolomite. Geologists use the term marble to refer to metamorphosed limestone; however, stonemasons use the term more broadly to encompass unmetamorphosed limestone. Marble is commonly used for sculpture and as a building material <P> There is a lot of variation in the color and texture of marble. The two main influences are the kind of limestone that makes up the parent rock and the kind and degree of metamorphism. It can be most any color including white, black, reds, greens, and more.

how long will a chicken lay eggs
|
<P> Thus: 3 chickens will lay 1 egg in 1/2 of a day. Then it follows that 3 chickens will lay 2 eggs in 1 day. Now, if we allow those 3 chickens three times as long (3 days), they will produce 6 eggs. 3 chickens will lay 6 eggs in 3 days. One chicken will lay 1/3 of that number of eggs (1/3 * 6 = 2 eggs) in 3 days. 1 chicken will lay 2 eggs in 3 days. Now, if we want 1 chicken to lay 12 eggs, it will take 6 of these lengths of time. 6 * 3 = 18 days. <P> Hen usually start laying at about 5 to 7 months old and reach peak egg production at 11 months old. The number of eggs laid will drop at about 18 to 24 months old but some birds will continue to lay up to a year after that. Egg production will also drop when the hen molts or if nutritional needs are not met. 3 chickens will lay 6 eggs in 3 days. One chicken will lay 1/3 of that number of eggs (1/3 * 6 = 2 eggs) in 3 days. 1 chicken will lay 2 eggs in 3 days. Now, if we want 1 chicken to lay 12 eggs, it will take 6 of these lengths of time. 6 * 3 = 18 days. <P> For backyard/pet chickens, the peak laying time is the first 3 to 4 years of age. Again, this can vary greatly between individual birds and breeds. Hens don't have a definite end to egg-laying, but eggs become fewer and at greater intervals as they age. Fertilized eggs will hatch 21 days after the hen begins incubating (sitting on) the nest. Caution is advised with some broody hens; they may keep laying or collect eggs into a giant nest that they are unable to properly incubate. <P> Chickens usually don't simply stop laying eggs when they get to a certain age, but they will lay fewer as they get older. That said, most laying breeds will lay more or less productively in backyard terms for five or seven years. <P> Fall is a normal time of year. Fall is a normal time of year for chickens to stop laying eggs as the sunlight decreases and they molt, but 7 months is a long time. She's not that old. Another common reason is dietary, though it sounds as if your other chicken is laying. When depends on the chicken. Most of ours went “off lay” as the days grew shorter. They laid fewer and fewer eggs until one day they simply stopped. One or two continued to lay sporadically throughout the cold, dark days of winter, although most of those eggs froze and cracked before we got out to collect them. <P> This is another varies with the individual bird and the breed answer. Some chickens lay an egg almost every day, others every 1.5 to 2 days. Younger hens (called pullets if less than one year old) will lay smaller eggs at larger intervals until they reach maturity. Fertilized eggs will hatch 21 days after the hen begins incubating (sitting on) the nest. Caution is advised with some broody hens; they may keep laying or collect eggs into a giant nest that they are unable to properly incubate. <P> Most hens will start laying between 5-7 months of age. They will lay best at 1 to 2 years of age. All pullets (female chicken under 1 year of age) lay small eggs at first and after a while will lay larger eggs. Younger hens will lay 1 egg every 3-4 days. A hen 30 weeks old can lay 2 eggs every 3 days. Some have been known to lay an egg a day. <P> Chickens are individuals as much as any other animal. Some will lay for two years, then decide to retire. Some will keep laying up to 5 years, then slow down/stop. And some will just slowly decline steadily over the years. Older hens lay just fine, some of them very nicely. As for how many years, perhaps some long-time chicken lovers can chime in and let us know how their old biddies are doing. ....waiting waiting waiting for the day when my eggs aren't costing me $500 a dozen.... Reply. <P> Chickens never lay more than one egg per day. As a rule, chickens lay in the morning, but each day a little later. Sometimes the last egg of a series is produced in the early afternoon. When it gets too late, they take the next day off. My five commercial hybrids will sometimes lay for a series of 30 days or more.

how big of a suitcase can you check in
|
<P> Find the sum of the width, depth and length of the bag. For a bag with a width of 9 inches, a depth of 5 inches, and a length of 13 inches, add the three values. In this instance the lineal value of the bag is 27 inches. 1 Familiarize your self with the regulations of the particular airline you are flying on. <P> If you're over your weight limit on a particular checked bag, make use of a packable spare bag to divide the load: the charge for an additional bag is usually less than that for an overweight one. Your daypack or lightweight duffel will come in handy for this purpose. Further, the rules for carry-on baggage vary (especially on smaller aircraft and in out-of-the-way places), and you are at the mercy of capricious transit personnel in any case. So there may well be situations where you choose — or are obliged — to check your bag. <P> 1 Prepare for a lost, stolen, damaged, or delayed checked bag-Pack your carry-on bags so that you will be able to survive for 48 hours at your destination without your checked bags. 2 If you are checking more than one piece of luggage, distribute items so that the loss of one bag will not cause undue hardship. 1 You may also want to use small ribbons, stickers, or other identifying marks on the bag to make it easier to spot. 2 Check the airline luggage tags-At check in, make sure that tags that the gate agent attaches to each piece of checked luggage matches your baggage claim tickets. <P> Checking Bags. Although carry-on travel is a significant benefit of travelling with one bag, not everyone chooses to exercise this option.

These are the most popular sizes of carry-on luggage for U.S. domestic flights. Most U.S. airlines have carry on restrictions of 22 x 14 x 9, or 45 linear inches. <P> Exceptions. Under certain conditions, you can check in luggage that exceeds the airline's linear height and weight restrictions. For example, if you travel first class or on a Business Elite fare with Delta, you are entitled to check up luggage up to 70 pounds for free. This means that when you add up the length, width and height of the luggage you intend to check, it should not be more than 62 inches. Most standard suitcases, garment bags and duffel bags measure 62 linear inches or less. <P> Checked Luggage. These sizes are the most popular size of luggage to check.

vicarious learning definition
|
<P> It is most associated with the work of psychologist Albert Bandura, who implemented some of the seminal studies in the area and initiated social learning theory. It involves the process of learning to copy or model the action of another through observing another doing it. <P> Vicarious reinforcement is a product of Albert Bandura's efforts to define learning in his Observational Learning theory. This theory was developed in the 1970's. <P> Bandura's social learning theory stresses the importance of observational learning, imitation and modeling. His theory integrates a continuous interaction between behaviors, personal factors-including cognition-and the environment referred to as reciprocal causation model. <P> Book Definition: There was no book definition for this term, but a definition I found from PsychExchange.co.uk was Vicarious reinforcement is a reinforcement which is received indirectly by observing another person who is being reinforced.. <P> The fact that they can all be used for vicarious reinforcement! When two people are given the same task, and one is excelling and the other is slacking, one way to push the slacker to do more is to reward the positive behavior of the other person. <P> Vicarious Learning/Observational Learning/Social Learning/Modeling. Observational learning (also known as: vicarious learning or social learning or modeling) is learning that occurs as a function of observing, retaining and replicating behavior observed in others. <P> Observational learning is exactly what is sounds like; the only difference between the aforesaid and vicarious learning is that vicarious learning applies solely to learning b … y observing the consequences of others' actions. <P> According to the social learning theory, behaviours are learned through different means, one of them being observation of others. This is sometimes called vicarious rein … forcement. A reinforcement goal is to increase the probability of apparition of a behavior. <P> 1 Learning from observing tutoring collaboratively: Insights about tutoring effectiveness from vicarious learning. 2 Cognitive Science. 3 Craig, S.

<P> Kefir, keefir, or kephir (/kəˈfir/ kə-FEER), alternatively milk kefir, or bulgaros, búlgaros is a fermented milk drink made with kefir (grains a/yeast bacterial fermentation) starter and has its origins in the North Caucasus. mountains Kefir grains, a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeasts. Kefir grains are a combination of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts in a matrix of proteins, lipids, and sugars, and this symbiotic matrix, (or SCOBY) forms grains that resemble cauliflower. <P> Water kefir is made from kefir grains, also known as sugar grains, tibicos, tibi, or Japanese water crystals. The grains make up cultures of various strains of healthy bacteria and yeast, held together in a polysaccharide matrix created by the bacteria. <P> This is because kefir is made by fermenting milk with 10 to 20 different types of bacteria and yeasts, where yogurt is usually just fermented with a handful of types; this leads to a higher probiotic count in the final product. There are actually two types of kefir: milk kefir and water kefir. Milk kefir is made from dairy (or non-dairy milks like coconut milk) and water kefir is made from, as the name implies, water. <P> Kefir, keefir, or kephir (/kəˈfir/ kə-FEER), alternatively milk kefir, or bulgaros, búlgaros is a fermented milk drink made with kefir (grains a/yeast bacterial fermentation) starter and has its origins in the North Caucasus.

Kefir grains are a combination of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts in a matrix of proteins, lipids, and sugars, and this symbiotic matrix, (or SCOBY) forms grains that resemble cauliflower. <P> Kefir made from live kefir grains has 35 different strains of beneficial bacteria and yeasts. Kefir isn’t at all like yogurt in that kefir actually colonizes our digestive tracts with this beneficial bacteria and yeast. Kefir is the drink made from the kefir grains and it has the consistency of a drinkable yogurt but is much more tart and is actually effervescent. Upon trying kefir the first time, my 3 year old daughter commented that it tasted like a milk soda! <P> Fresh kefir grains. Kefir is a popular, health-boosting drink made from the fermentation of kefir grains and milk. The origins of the name come from the Turkish word for pleasure; probably because when drunk daily, kefir promotes health and an overall good feeling. <P> The drink is made either with kefir grains or a powdered kefir starter — the grains aren't an actual grain like wheat, but are made of bacteria and yeast. Generally of a thinner consistency than yogurt, kefir is usually sold as a drink, either plain or flavoured. Here are a dozen things you should know about kefir. There are actually two types of kefir: milk kefir and water kefir. Milk kefir is made from dairy (or non-dairy milks like coconut milk) and water kefir is made from, as the name implies, water. <P> Although it is slightly mucous forming, the mucous has a “clean” quality to it that creates ideal conditions in the digestive tract for the colonization of friendly bacteria. Kefir is made from gelatinous white or yellow particles called “grains.” This makes kefir unique, as no other milk culture forms grains. These grains contain the bacteria/yeast mixture clumped together with casein (milk proteins) and complex sugars.

why does seawater intrusion occur
|
<P> Saltwater intrusion is the movement of saline water into freshwater aquifers, which can lead to contamination of drinking water sources and other consequences. Saltwater intrusion occurs naturally to some degree in most coastal aquifers, owing to the hydraulic connection between groundwater and seawater. Because saltwater has a higher mineral content than freshwater, it is denser and has a higher water pressure. As a result, saltwater can push inland beneath the freshwater. Certain human activities, especially groundwater pumping from coastal freshwater wells, have increased saltwater intrusion in many coastal areas <P> Another problem that takes place when saltwater intrusion occurs in coastal freshwater aquifers is the changing of the saltwater-freshwater interface. Also known as the zone of dispersion or transition zone, this is the area where the body of saltwater and freshwater meet and form a hydrologic barrier. When this occurs, it will move the saltwater freshwater interface inland, resulting in a higher saline concentration in the aquifers' water, rendering it useless for human consumption, unless it is treated. Figure 4. Saltwater Intrusion Situation(University of Florida, 2000)). <P> Seawater intrusion due to pumping. The most common source for seawater intrusion is when the pressure in the aquifers is lowered, this causes an up dwelling of saline water into the aquifers. As you can see from fig. 2, the usage of groundwater causes a depression in the water level and a seawater intrusion. Seawater intrusion is when saline water, defined as water with a concentration of dissolved salts of more than 1000 mg/L, migrates into the groundwater system. When the fresh water in aquifers gets replaced by saline water the wells becomes useless for drinking and agriculture. <P> exists and is an alternate of. Merge this question into. Split and merge into it. Answered by The Community. Making the world better, one answer at a time. Saltwater intrusion is the movement of ocean water into fresh groundwater that causes contamination of the freshwater by salt. This is a process of nature and usually occurs near the coastlines where the fresh groundwater level approaches the same level as the sea. <P> Seawater intrusion is the movement of seawater into fresh water aquifers due to natural processes or human activities. Seawater intrusion is caused by decreases in groundwater levels or by rises in seawater levels. <P> Salt water intrusion occurs in coastal freshwater aquifers when the different densities of both the saltwater and freshwater allow the ocean water to intrude into the freshwater aquifer. When this occurs, it will move the saltwater freshwater interface inland, resulting in a higher saline concentration in the aquifers' water, rendering it useless for human consumption, unless it is treated. Figure 4. Saltwater Intrusion Situation(University of Florida, 2000)). <P> Answers. Best Answer: Saltwater intrusion can happen if to much water is removed from an aquifer. Normally excess water from the aquifer would flow out into the ocean keeping the saltwater out of the aquifer. When to much water is removed from the aquifer, by say irrigation, water stops flowing into the ocean and allows saltwater to enter or intrude the freshwater aquifer. Source(s): Noah · 8 years ago. <P> Saltwater intrusion occurs when large amounts of saltwater move into an aquifer's freshwater supply and create brackish water. Generally, it occurs when the water level of an aquifer is lowered and freshwater is being withdrawn at faster rate than at which it is being replenished. The rate at which saltwater intrusion occurs depends upon the water level of the aquifer and the rates of replenishment and withdrawal. A certain amount of mixing between freshwater and saltwater in a coastal aquifer is natural. This happens in an area know as a zone of dispersion. The overall flow of freshwater in the aquifer moves toward the ocean. This movement keeps the saltwater from intruding. <P> The intrusion of salt water can also affect habitats and ecosystems. Seawater intrusion can occur naturally, usually together with storm surges, the storm presses salt water into the aquifers. But the most common cause of seawater intrusion is overexploitation of the groundwater by humans. Seawater intrusion is when saline water, defined as water with a concentration of dissolved salts of more than 1000 mg/L, migrates into the groundwater system. When the fresh water in aquifers gets replaced by saline water the wells becomes useless for drinking and agriculture.

<P> Best Answer: It takes dove eggs about 14-17 days depending on what kind of dove it is. Being in such hot weather without the parents to give it moisture, the embryo would die within a couple days. it takes about 20 days for dove eggs to hatch in an incubator.try to wash your hands really good if you find some and do not get them wet because they do not have a waterproof shell like a chicken egg does and keep the eggs at 103 degrees farenheight and 70 degrees humitity. D B · 3 months ago. Thumbs up. <P> Candling Dove Eggs. The dove's egg shell is thin, so candling is easy. Carefully hold an egg that has been incubated for five days in one hand and shine a bright flashlight behind it. In a fertile egg, veins are visible beneath the shell. An infertile egg is clear under the light, with no veins present. <P> Report Abuse. it takes about 20 days for dove eggs to hatch in an incubator.try to wash your hands really good if you find some and do not get them wet because they do not have a waterproof shell like a chicken egg does and keep the eggs at 103 degrees farenheight and 70 degrees humitity. D B · 3 months ago. Thumbs up. <P> Don't get excited if the dove is not sitting on the egg or is standing over the egg not getting it warm. They will sit on it when they are ready. The incubation will take about 15 days for the eggs to fully hatch. Dove eggs do not have a waterproof membrane like chicken eggs so it is important not to get a dove egg wet. Anything you put on the egg will penetrate the shell and affect the baby inside. Dove eggs are larger than those of the average bird. They are a glossy white about 2/3 the size of a golf ball. Sometimes it is difficult to determine which is the small end of the egg and which is the large end. There are usually 2 in each clutch. <P> 1 If the dove refuse to incubate the eggs leave the eggs in the nest box for 14 days and a few more before removing them. 2 Mark the first two eggs with a felt tip pen so they can be removed if the hen decides to lay a second clutch in the nest. <P> Mourning Doves raise three or more broods in a single breeding season. Both parents build a flimsy platform nest of twigs located from 5 to 25 feet up in a tree or bush. Two white eggs hatch in about 14 - 16 days. One egg is laid in the evening, and the second on the next morning. <P> ACD: 28 total eggs laid; 13 days (1); 14 days (22); 15 days (5). Diamond Dove: 34 total eggs laid; 12 days (16); 13 days (17); 14 days (1) Note: the 14 day time is due to the 2nd egg being laid two days after the 1st egg before incubation started & both eggs hatching on same day. Dwarf Turtle Dove: 40 total eggs laid; 12 days (3); 13 days (12); 14 days (16); 15 days (9). Senegal Dove: 148 total eggs laid; 12 days (5); 13 days (76); 14 days (57); 15 days (9); 17 days (1) Note: the 17 day length was due to a two day period between the eggs& both eggs hatched same day. <P> They often incubate two eggs at once, laying the eggs within several hours of each other but not beginning to incubate the eggs until both are laid to ensure the eggs hatch at the same time. The gestation period for most doves is 14 to 16 days. Doves share the parenting, with both males and females incubating eggs. The dove's egg shell is thin, so candling is easy.

which is used to copy dna for dna fingerprinting
|
<P> DNA fingerprinting or DNA profiling, any of several similar techniques for analyzing and comparing DNA from separate sources, used especially in law enforcement to identify suspects from hair, blood, semen, or other biological materials found at the scene of a violent crime. The complete DNA of each individual is unique, with the exception of identical twins. A DNA fingerprint, therefore, is a DNA pattern that has a unique sequence such that it can be distinguished from the DNA patterns of other individuals. DNA fingerprinting is also called DNA typing. <P> Secondly it means we can determine what the bands of our test DNA mean by comparing them to the reference material. Sometimes the reference DNA is called the standard reference material (SRM) and we commonly used SRM2390 (for RFLP), SRM2391a (for PCR) and SRM 2392 (mitochondrial DNA) in DNA fingerprinting. So the skinny answer is that DNA standards are used to assure the quality and comparability of the test performed. In most cases DNA fingerprints are used in identifying crime suspects. If there are fingerprints left at a crime scene then DNA fingerprints are used to attempt to identify t … he suspect. <P> Complimentary DNA (cDNA). The enzyme reverse transcriptase is used to make a DNA copy of human mRNA producing the cDNA, which doesn't contain introns. Bacteria may then transcribe and translate the cloned cDNA to produce a human protein. <P> The amount of DNA associated with a fingerprint will vary from person to person and can vary within the same person. Low Copy Number DNA Profiling. STR DNA, which is used for human identification, is extracted from nucleated cells. The ability to obtain reliable DNA profiles from fingerprints depends on the number of nucleated cells collected from the fingerprints. The more cells there are in a stain or on a surface, the more DNA there will be. If there are very few cells available, it is referred to as low copy number DNA profiling.. Instead of swabbing the fingerprint off the surface of the paper, DDC scientists cut the fingerprint section from the paper, which was used for DNA extraction. DDC has found that it is easier to obtain DNA from a cut section of paper rather than a swabbed section of paper. <P> A DNA profile is a small set of DNA variations that is very likely to be different in all unrelated individuals, thereby being as unique to individuals as are fingerprints (hence the alternate name for the technique). DNA profiling should not be confused with full genome sequencing. The system of DNA profiling used today is based on PCR and uses simple sequences or short tandem repeats (STR). This method uses highly polymorphic regions that have short repeated sequences of DNA (the most common is 4 bases repeated, but there are other lengths in use, including 3 and 5 bases). <P> An individuals unique sequence of DNA base pairs, determined by exposing a sample of the person's DNA to molecular probes. DNA fingerprints can be used as evidence in criminal law cases and the determination of biological mother or father. process of DNA fingerprinting. Investigators use chemicals to cut the long strands of DNA into much smaller segments. Each segment has a specific length. The chemicals cut the segments at the beginning and at the end of the repeating string of nucleotides. <P> Key words: low copy number; shedder; secondary transfer; enhanced fingerprints INTRODUCTION Low copy number (LCN) DNA profiling using the SGM Plus™ multiplex (1) has been used in casework at the Forensic Science Service since January 1999. <P> DNA profiling (also called DNA fingerprinting, DNA testing, or DNA typing) is a forensic technique used to identify individuals by characteristics of their DNA.

what makes concrete strong
|
<P> You don't need lots of water to make concrete strong. The addition of water to a 5 inch or higher slump just makes it easier to pour. Six Bag or 4,000 PSI Mix. You must have enough cement in each cubic yard to make sure it is strong. For concrete exposed to freezing temperatures you want a minimum of six bags (564 lbs.) of cement per cubic yard or a design strength of 4,000 pounds per square inch. Air Bubbles. Special chemicals can be added to concrete as it is mixed. The cement in concrete is the glue that holds everything together. The more water you add when you mix, the weaker the concrete will be for a given amount of cement. Think of cement as sugar in iced tea. If you add just a little sugar the sweetness level is weak. <P> Simply put --- the greater the cement content in the mix = the stronger the concrete.To give you an example of how important this fact is -- most enineers and architects stipulate on their drawings that NO FLY ASH OR SLAG can be used in a mix for foundations or high rise structures, buildings, freeways, etc.. <P> How Concrete is Made. In its simplest form, concrete is a mixture of paste and aggregates, or rocks. The paste, composed of portland cement and water, coats the surface of the fine (small) and coarse (larger) aggregates. The quality of the paste determines the character of the concrete. The strength of the paste, in turn, depends on the ratio of water to cement. The water-cement ratio is the weight of the mixing water divided by the weight of the cement. <P> How to Make Concrete Even Stronger. Standard concrete mixes are useful in most applications, but for some applications, you may want to increase the strength of the concrete. Here are steps to increase the strength of concrete. Adjust the mixture you are using if you are mixing your own concrete. An example would be to use more portland cement and less sand for a home made concrete mix. Large aggregate like gravel and crushed limestone do not affect the strength of concrete as much as the cement to sand ratio. 1 4 Edit step. <P> This results in a C20-rated concrete mix, which means the concrete will be of medium strength. Concrete is rated on a system that indicates the strength of the mix after it’s cured for approximately a month. To make the concrete stronger, add more cement or less sand. The closer you bring the ratio to an even one-to-one of sand to cement, the stronger the rating becomes. This principles works in the opposite direction as well. <P> 1. Understand the two factors determining the strength of concrete when used in building: 1 Compressive strength is obtained by design, using the cement to aggregate ratio as a base, then adding admixtures for increased strength. Adjust the mixture you are using if you are mixing your own concrete. An example would be to use more portland cement and less sand for a home made concrete mix. Large aggregate like gravel and crushed limestone do not affect the strength of concrete as much as the cement to sand ratio. 1 4 Edit step. <P> Concrete is a composite material composed of aggregate bonded together with a fluid cement which hardens over time. Most use of the term concrete refers to Portland cement concrete or to concretes made with other hydraulic cements, such as ciment fondu. However, road surfaces are also a type of concrete, asphaltic concrete, where the cement material is bitumen. <P> Concrete is a type of artificial stone made by mixing dry aggregate (sand or gravel) and cement, then adding water. This makes a soft mix that can be molded easily or transported in a rotating concrete mixer. Different types of concrete can be made by varying the basic ingredients. Concrete owes its strength to the way in which water and cement combine chemically and bind together the particles of aggregate into a very dense mass. Allowing concrete to dry slowly means the concrete stays moist for longer so the chemical reaction is more effective.

what is an honours degree
|
<P> A Bachelors or Honours Level covers degrees with titles such as Bachelor of Arts, BA (Hons), Bachelor of Science, BSc (Hons), Bachelor of Engineering, BEng (Hons), Bachelor of Laws, and LLB (Hons). These are standard higher education qualifications recognised across the UK and Europe. <P> The postgraduate Bachelor's degree With Honours or Baccalaureatus Cum Honore degree is a consecutive academic degree. It’s the continuation of a completed (Honours) Bachelor's degree program in the same field. <P> A Bachelor’s degree, or Bachelor’s degree (Hons), are both academic degrees given to undergraduate students. Though these two are both academic degrees, they only have a very slight difference. In many countries, the bachelor’s degree is differentiated as an ordinary, or pass degree, and honours degree. <P> If you are doing, or have done, particularly well in your Bachelor degree, you should consider an Honours degree. This normally involves one additional year of study following the successful completion of a three-year undergraduate degree. <P> In most countries, using the undergraduate Honours grading system, the term Honours (or Honors in the United States) is an academic distinction, which indicates that students must achieve their bachelor's degree with a sufficiently high overall grade point average. <P> A non-honours degree is also sometimes known as an ordinary degree or pass degree. Achievement of an honours degree is denoted by the appearance of the letters (Hons) after the degree abbreviation-for example BA (Hons). An honours degree is still a Bachelor's degree. <P> A Degree with Honours. A degree 'with honours' is usually awarded in the last year of a four year Bachelor degree to students who obtain defined honours grades (such as an H1) in specified course components. Sometimes students are required to include a research project or thesis as a fourth year elective subject. <P> In Ireland an Honours Degree takes for years to complete (three years in the UK). What determines if you have a 1st (1.1), 2.1, 2.2 or 3.0 depends on your final grade in your last year or your average on graduating. A 1.1 is anything over 70%, a 2.1 is 60% and over, 2.2 50% and a 3rd class is anything below that. <P> In South Africa, non-professional bachelor's degrees (BA, BSc, BCom) are three year degrees (professional degrees such as engineering degrees or medicine are longer). The honours degree is an optional fourth-year and is an additional one-year qualification.

how much do landscape stones weigh
|
<P> Now to get the weight of the stones needed, we multiply the volume by the density of the stones (0.0619 pounds/inch 3). 75.36 inches3 x 0.0619 pounds/inch3 = 4.66 pounds. So, we will need about 4.66 pounds of stone to cover the soil in our flower pot to a depth of about 1 1/2 inches. Much Larger Projects…. Mixed tumbled stones weigh about 0.0618 pounds per cubic inch (or about 107 pounds per cubic foot), and we need 162 cubic inches, so we simply multiply…. 162 inches3 x 0.0619 pounds/inch3 = 10.01 pounds. There’s our answer. We need about 10 pounds of mixed tumbled stones for each planter. <P> How many pieces of Anchor Diamond wall are on a pallet and how much does it weigh? There are 45 pieces of Anchor Diamond wall on each pallet, which will cover approximately 30 face foot of wall. You can build a retaining wall with the Retaining Wall Stone product up to 2 feet high.

how long should it take to recover after having a broken ankle
|
<P> Nine weeks post-surgery, my ankle is in pretty good shape. I have minimal swelling, use a fancy ankle brace, and exercise the soreness right out of me with resistance bands. Learn from my experience things that doctors don't get around to telling you. <P> Simply put, surgically repaired broken ankles take months to recover. You can get back to a mostly normal life at 3 or 4 months post-surgery, but you will still require more time and patience before that ankle feels “good” again. The severity of the fracture will directly impact recovery time. In general, a bone will require at least 6 weeks to heal. Five ligaments and a tendon help hold your ankle together, as well, and these can all be damaged during a fracture. <P> Lisa Vickers MD, an orthopedic surgeon at the TriHealth Orthopedic and Spine Institute, answers a Local 12 viewer question about how long it takes to recover from Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) surgery. <P> If your doctor didn’t already tell you how long your ankle needs to heal, note that you should expect to cater to your ankle’s needs for the next year or so. However, you can expect to see the following from your broken ankle recovery time: If the ankle was a simple break, you should expect to be healed in a minimum of three months. However, if you smoke, it’s important to note that healing will generally take longer. If there were complications in your broken ankle (for example, other bones were dislocated or there were several breaks), you’re looking at a healing time of six months to a year. <P> Broken Ankle Recovery Time. When someone breaks an ankle the broken ankle recovery time can vary. This all depends on the severity of the injury and what caused it. For an average type of broken ankle, it can take up to six weeks to fully heal. But in more severe cases it can take months and surgery may also have to be done to correct the problem. It is important to keep the ankle elevated and to rest the ankle for a period of time. This is the best case scenario when a person suffers with a broken ankle. The broken ankle recovery time for this type of injury is around six weeks. The doctor can place the ankle in a split or cast and the healing can begin. <P> I have been in a cast for nearly six weeks after having ORIF and have been cut on both sides of my ankle and have had plates and a lot of screws fixed in. Also suffered dislocation as well which I had to have a plate in also. I am due to go back next week to have cast removed. Broken Ankle. I am so pleased to read your story. After having read so many disheartening ones full of doom and gloom I was about to stop reading anymore. I broke my ankle 8 weeks ago, was in a cast for only 2 weeks and then non weight bearing for a further 4 weeks. I have a plate and 9 pins. Last week I started seeing the physio and also started walking around with both feet on the ground! Sometimes in the house I only use 1 crutch <P> Recovering. It takes about six to 12 weeks for a broken ankle to heal, but it may take longer to regain full movement and return to all of your normal activities. Swelling can sometimes take a few years to improve. Ask friends or family to go shopping for you, as you won't be able to do this yourself. Most people will stay in hospital for one or two days after surgery. A plaster cast will be placed over the ankle to protect it before you go home. It takes about six to 12 weeks for a broken ankle to heal, but it may take longer to regain full movement and return to all of your normal activities. <P> My ankle fracture recovery sucess story. I am 4-1/2 months into recovery from dislocation and trameleor fracture of my ankle (broke in three places plus some bone fragments that couldn't be pinned back in), and have a plate and 10 pins holding it all together. Broken Ankle. I am so pleased to read your story. After having read so many disheartening ones full of doom and gloom I was about to stop reading anymore.

what is dew point temperature of
|
<P> In simpler terms: the dew point, or frost point, is the temperature at which dew or frost will form should the air temperature fall sufficiently. Other things being equal, as the temperature falls, the relative humidity rises, reaching 100% at the dew point, at least at ground level. A technical definition follows: The dew point is the temperature at which the water vapor in a sample of air at constant barometric pressure condenses into liquid water at the same rate at which it evaporates. At temperatures below the dew point, water will leave the air. <P> Dew point is closely linked to relative humidity, which is the ratio of the pressure of water vapor in a parcel of air relative to the saturation pressure of water vapor in that same parcel of air at a specific temperature. Relative humidity (RH) is expressed as a percentage. The relative humidity is 100 percent when the dew point and the temperature are the same. If the temperature drops any further, condensation will result, and liquid water will begin to form. <P> The dew point is the temperature at which air is saturated with water vapor, which is the gaseous state of water. The relative humidity is 100 percent when the dew point and the temperature are the same. If the temperature drops any further, condensation will result, and liquid water will begin to form. <P> Compared to relative humidity, dew point is frequently cited as a more accurate way of measuring the humidity and comfort of the air, since it is an absolute measurement (unlike relative humidity). Most people are comfortable with a dew-point temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit (16 degrees Celsius) or lower. At a higher dew point of, for example, 70 F (21 C), most people feel hot or sticky because the amount of water vapor in the air slows the evaporation of perspiration and keeps the body from cooling. The relative humidity is 100 percent when the dew point and the temperature are the same. If the temperature drops any further, condensation will result, and liquid water will begin to form. <P> The dew point is always lower than (or equal to) the air temperature. If the air temperature cools to the dew point, or if the dew point rises to equal the air temperature, then dew, fog or clouds begin to form. At this point where the dew point temperature equals the air temperature, the relative humidity is 100%. The dewpoint temperature is the temperature at which the air can no longer hold all of the water vapor which is mixed with it, and some of the water vapor must condense into liquid water. <P> The dew point temperature is the temperature at which the air must become cooled to in order to become completely saturated with water vapor. If the air is cooled to the dew point temperature, it will become saturated and condensation will begin to form. A dew point temperature close to the actual temperature means that the air is quite full of water vapor and thus humid. If the dew point is significantly lower than the air temperature, the air is dry and can still hold much additional <P> The dew point is associated with relative humidity. A high relative humidity implies that the dew point is closer to the current air temperature. Relative humidity of 100% indicates the dew point is equal to the current temperature and that the air is maximally saturated with water. When the moisture content remains constant and temperature increases, relative humidity decreases. A technical definition follows: The dew point is the temperature at which the water vapor in a sample of air at constant barometric pressure condenses into liquid water at the same rate at which it evaporates. At temperatures below the dew point, water will leave the air. <P> Dew Point vs. Humidity. The dew point is the temperature the air needs to be cooled to (at constant pressure) in order to achieve a relative humidity (RH) of 100%. At this point the air cannot hold anymore water in the gas form. <P> Dew point is a measure of atmospheric moisture. It is the temperature to which air must be cooled to reach saturation (assuming air pressure and moisture content are constant). A higher dew point indicates more moisture present in the air. A technical definition follows: The dew point is the temperature at which the water vapor in a sample of air at constant barometric pressure condenses into liquid water at the same rate at which it evaporates. At temperatures below the dew point, water will leave the air.

what does neurofibrillary tangles mean
|
<P> Amyloid Plaques and Neurofibrillary Tangles. The formation of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are thought to contribute to the degradation of the neurons (nerve cells) in the brain and the subsequent symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. One of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease is the accumulation of amyloid plaques between nerve cells (neurons) in the brain. Amyloid is a general term for protein fragments that the body produces normally. <P> Medical Definition of NEUROFIBRILLARY TANGLE. : a pathological accumulation of paired helical filaments composed of abnormally formed tau protein that is found chiefly in the cytoplasm of nerve cells of the brain and especially the cerebral cortex and hippocampus and that occurs typically in Alzheimer's disease.

Tweet. : a pathological accumulation of paired helical filaments composed of abnormally formed tau protein that is found chiefly in the cytoplasm of neuron <P> Tauopathies are a class of neurodegenerative diseases associated with the pathological aggregation of tau protein in the human brain. The best-known of these illnesses is Alzheimer's disease (AD), wherein tau protein is deposited within neurons in the form of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). They were first described by the eponymous Alois Alzheimer in one of his patients suffering from the disorder. (These aggregations of hyperphosphorylated tau protein are also referred to as PHF, or paired helical filaments ). The precise mechanism of tangle formation is not completely understood, and it is still controversial as to whether tangles are a primary causative factor in the disease or play a more peripheral role. <P> Formation [edit]. Neurofibrillary tangles are formed by hyperphosphorylation of a microtubule-associated protein known as tau, causing it to aggregate, or group, in an insoluble form. (These aggregations of hyperphosphorylated tau protein are also referred to as PHF, or paired helical filaments ). It was found that only an increase in neurofibrillary tangle load was associated with severity of aggression and chronic aggression in Alzheimer's patients. While this study does indicate a correlation between NFT load and severity of aggression, it does not provide a causative argument. <P> Neurofibrillary tangles are insoluble twisted fibers found inside the brain's cells. These tangles consist primarily of a protein called tau, which forms part of a structure called a microtubule. The microtubule helps transport nutrients and other important substances from one part of the nerve cell to another.

While this study does indicate a correlation between NFT load and severity of aggression, it does not provide a causative argument. <P> As one of the hallmarks of ALZHEIMER DISEASE, the neurofibrillary tangles eventually occupy the whole of the cytoplasm in certain classes of cell in the neocortex, hippocampus, brain stem, and diencephalon. These double helical stacks of transverse subunits are twisted into left-handed ribbon-like filaments that likely incorporate the following proteins: (1) the intermediate filaments: medium-and high-molecular-weight neurofilaments; (2) the microtubule-associated proteins map-2 and tau; (3) actin; and (4) UBIQUITINS.

what is cephalization in flatworms
|
<P> Basically, cephalization is the process which enables organisms to have a brain. At an intermediate level of this process, organisms may also possess ganglia, which refer to groups of nerve cells or mini control centers that are scattered throughout their bodies. The neurons become concentrated in the head region and allows the brain of the organism to be situated in one place. Cephalization is beneficial because it allows a complex brain to be developed. <P> Platyhelminthes. Members of the phylum Platyhelminthes are flatworms, such as the planarian. Grubs and tapeworms are other examples of flatworms. Flatworms display bilateral symmetry; that is, the left and right halves of the body are mirror images of one another. Another characteristic of the platyhelminthes is cephalization.Cephalization means that one end of the animal functions as a head. The “head” contains a mass of nerve cells that acts as a brain and specialized regions for sensing light, chemicals, and pressure. <P> The flatworms, or Platyhelminthes, Plathelminthes, or platyhelminths (from the Greek πλατύ, platy, meaning flat and ἕλμινς (root: ἑλμινθ-), helminth- , meaning worm) are a phylum of relatively simple bilaterian, unsegmented, soft-bodied invertebrates. <P> The evolutionary trend in cephalization is that more advanced organisms have a larger concentration of neurons at one end of their body. However, this is not always the case. Some organisms, such as starfish, are considered evolutionarily advanced by certain categorizations, but they did not undergo cephalization. <P> Cephalization is considered an evolutionary trend, whereby nervous tissue, over many generations, becomes concentrated toward one end of an organism. This process eventually produces a head region with sensory organs. Cephalization is intrinsically connected with a change in symmetry. It accompanied the move to bilateral symmetry made in flatworms, with ocelli and pinnae placed in the head region. <P> Flatworms live in many environments. Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images. Flatworms, also called planarians, belong to the phylum Platyhelminthes. Characterized by flat bodies, they have no circulatory or respiratory organs and a very simple digestive tract. This body plan limits them to very small, flat shapes to allow them to absorb oxygen and moisture <P> Phylum Platyhelminthes (the flatworms) ~1300 species ie: Planarians, Tapeworms, Flukes Some are free living and some are parasitic. Soft, flattened worms with tissues and internal organ systems. The simplest animals to have 3 germ layers, bilateral symmetry, and cephalization. <P> Even hydras, which are primitive, radially symmetrical cnidarians, show some degree of cephalization. They have a “head” where their mouth, photoreceptive cells, and a concentration of neural cells are located. Flatworms (phylum Platyhelminthes) are the most primitive animals with bilateral symmetry. They also have a fairly advanced degree of cephalization, with sense organs (photosensory and chemosensory cells) and a brain concentrated at the anterior end. This process eventually produces a head region with sensory organs. Cephalization is intrinsically connected with a change in symmetry. It accompanied the move to bilateral symmetry made in flatworms, with ocelli and pinnae placed in the head region. <P> Cephalization refers to an evolutionary trend by which the neurons of an organism are concentrated towards one end of the body. The neurons become concentrated in the head region and allows the brain of the organism to be situated in one place. Cephalization is beneficial because it allows a complex brain to be developed. Together with the bilateral body plan, a complex brain enables an organism to make complex and quick movements <P> Definition of CEPHALIZATION. : a tendency in the evolution of organisms to concentrate the sensory and neural organs in an anterior head.
