what does escargot taste like
|
<P> Really taste a lot like escargot. Doesn't taste like chicken. Doesn't taste like anything else. It is however quite amazing. If you are at a spot that serves escargot, I would recommend you have some frog legs as well. <P> Best Answer: It depends on what is cooked with. The snail itself is more of a consistency (chewy) than a flavor and picks up its taste from the additional ingredients. The traditional snails in the shell cooked in garlic taste of the garlic. <P> What it is: An escargot is a French cuisine the main ingredient of which is snails. They are usually cooked in a varying mixture of ingredients, the main ones being salt and garlic as well as butter and wine. How it tastes: The three most common descriptions given to this delicacy are chicken, rubbery clam or greasy and mushy tastes. The usually seasoning also makes them taste quite strongly of garlic and be quite salty. Tips: These are usually a one try delicacy for those who don’t have a cultured (or French) taste. <P> It is not so much the taste that people are afraid of. It is the texture. after the snail is cooked, it is slightly chewier than normal meats but it takes on the flaver of the fat that it was cooked with. The French are not the only cuisine that involves snails in their food. After drinking all night in New York we would usually go to China town to get snails. They prepare the snails with a sauce and the snails takes the same taste as the sauce it was cooked with. It's not all that bad.

Best Answer: Depends on where you live (availability of breeders), the age, color and quality of the peacock. There are a decent number of breeders where I live in Ohio, and an average quality male sells for anywhere between $50-100. Peacocks are very slow to mature and do not reproduce readily, so expect to spend a decent amount of money on any bird. I've seen nice males go at auction for over $200.

what did apirana think of the treaty of waitangi
|
<P> Signed in 1840, the Treaty of Waitangi is an agreement between the British Crown and Maori. Around this time, there were 125,000 Maori and about 2000 settlers in New Zealand. Sealers and whalers were the first Europeans settlers, followed by missionaries. As British settlement increased, the British Government decided to negotiate a formal agreement with Maori chiefs to become a British Colony. A treaty was drawn up in English then translated into Maori. The Treaty of Waitangi was signed on February 6, 1840, at Waitangi in the Bay of Islands. Forty-three Northland Chiefs signed the treaty on that day. Over 500 Maori Chiefs signed it as it was taken around the country during the next eight month <P> The Waitangi Treaty Grounds is New Zealand’s premier historic site where in 1840 New Zealand’s most significant document was signed by the British Crown and Māori Chiefs: the Treaty of Waitangi. The Treaty House was originally known as ‘the Residency’. It is where James Busby conducted much of his official business as the British government’s representative in New Zealand from 1833 to 1840. It was also home for James and his wife Agnes and their six children. <P> After the initial signing at Waitangi, copies of the Treaty were taken around New Zealand and over the following months many other chiefs signed. In total there are nine copies of the Treaty of Waitangi including the original signed on 6 February 1840. From the British point of view, the Treaty gave Britain sovereignty over New Zealand, and gave the Governor the right to govern the country. Māori believed they ceded to the Crown a right of governance in return for protection, without giving up their authority to manage their own affairs. <P> The Treaty of Waitangi (Māori: Tiriti o Waitangi) is a treaty first signed on 6 February 1840 by representatives of the British Crown and various Māori chiefs from the North Island of New Zealand. From the British point of view, the Treaty gave Britain sovereignty over New Zealand, and gave the Governor the right to govern the country. Māori believed they ceded to the Crown a right of governance in return for protection, without giving up their authority to manage their own affairs. <P> Until the 1970s, the Treaty was generally regarded as having served its purpose in 1840 New Zealand, and was ignored by the courts and parliament alike; although it was usually depicted in New Zealand history as a generous act on the part of the British Empire, which was at the time at its peak. From the British point of view, the Treaty gave Britain sovereignty over New Zealand, and gave the Governor the right to govern the country. Māori believed they ceded to the Crown a right of governance in return for protection, without giving up their authority to manage their own affairs. <P> The Treaty of Waitangi had accomplished what it was authorized to do, it gave Sovereignty of New Zealand to Britain and Maori the same rights as the people of England under the jurisdiction of the New South Wales Government. The Treaty of Waitangi has never been breached it gave Sovereignty to Britain and Maori the same rights as the people of England. If there are any breaches, then they can only be breaches of the laws of New Zealand and therefore must be heard by a Court of Law. <P> As Sir Apirana Ngata stated in his book, The treaty of Waitangi-An Explanation, Some have said that these confiscations were wrong and that they contravene the articles of the Treaty of Waitangi, but the chiefs placed in the hands of the Queen of England, the Sovereignty and authority to make laws. Queen Victoria sent William Hobson to New Zealand in 1840 to draft and sign a Treaty with the Aboriginal Natives of New Zealand to give, as requested by them on many occasions, a Government for law, order and mainly protection. <P> The Whare Runanga (meeting house) named Te Tiriti o Waitangi and the restored Treaty House (former home of James Busby, the first British Resident) were presented to the nation on Waitangi Day, February 6th 1940. At the same time the ceremonial waka taua (war canoe) Ngatokimatawhaorua was launched. <P> Hone Heke, the first Maori chief to sign the Treaty. t was on the 6th day of February, 1840, when the Treaty of Waitangi was made. Waitangi is part of Ithe Bay of Islands in the northern part of the North Island. It was made between Governor William Hobson on behalf of Queen Victoria and Maori Chiefs who gathered there on that day. ARTICLE THE FIRST These are the words of the first article of the Treaty of Waitangi. The First Article: The Chiefs assembled including Chiefs not present at the assembly hereby cede absolutely to the Queen of England for ever the government of all of their lands.

how long can you keep frozen pastry
|
<P> Here are some tips for working with ready-made puff pastry. Thaw frozen pastry sheets at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before gently unfolding. Wrap unused sheets in plastic wrap or foil and return to the freezer. Always preheat the oven prior to baking as directed in the recipe. <P> Yes. Uncooked, frozen pastry can be stored for 3-4 months; cooked pastry will keep up to 6 months. Make sure to cover it well with plastic wrap and/or a sealable container. When you are ready to use it, thaw it at room temperature for 3 or 4 hours, or overnight. 1 person found this useful. <P> The plan was to make my very first cheese danish this weekend, so I thawed a box of frozen puff pastry sheets. Something came up and I was unable to go through with the recipe, and now the pastry has been sitting, thawed, in my fridge for a couple days now. <P> If frozen, thaw in the refrigerator for 2 days before using -- thawing at room temperature will cause the layers to stick together. Phyllo will keep in the refrigerator for up to one month, in the freezer for a year. Do no refreeze phyllo as the dough becomes dry adn crumly and hard to work with. How to prepare: Phyllo dough is very fragile and thin. Handle slowly and carefully. <P> Answers. Best Answer: UNBAKED PIE DOUGH Unbaked pie dough will keep in the refrigerator, tightly wrapped, for about 4 days. Pat the dough into a ball and wrap it well with foil or plastic wrap. Let it soften a bit at room temperature before you roll it out. Unbaked pie dough can also be frozen for at least 3 months. Save bits and scraps each time you make pastry and you will soon have enough for a complete pie. Or line small tart shells with unbaked pastry scraps and keep them in the freezer; filled with savories or sweets, they make delightful appetizers or desserts. Wrap well in foil or freezer paper, an unbaked pie shell will keep in the freezer for at least 3 months. Unbaked shells should be unwrapped and baked while still frozen in a 450 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes (less for a tart shell, longer for a basic pie crust), or until browned. <P> Think about what it is made from. Basic shortcrust pastry only has flour, fat (butter/lard/shortening), water and sugar for sweet crust, so well wrapped shortcrust can last about two weeks. If you are using eggs or any other perishable ingredients then much less-a couple of days. If you keep the uncooked lobster in the fridge with a gel cold pack in the container, the lobster can be kept for about two days. If the lobster is not alive when you take … it out, do not cook it, throw it away. <P> Here's how to do each of these three ways successfully. How to freeze pastry dough. Mix the dough and form into a disc so it's easier to roll out later. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store in an air-tight container or re-sealable plastic bag in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. If you store it any longer, the dough may begin to lose its flavour. To thaw the frozen pastry dough, move it from the freezer to the fridge the night before and roll it out chilled. Heat them up just before serving in a 350°F (177 °C) oven for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through. It's important to keep in mind that baked and frozen pastry tends to stale quicker once heated a second time, so try to avoid defrosting more than you can eat immediately. <P> Many brands of frozen puff pastry cut their butter with vegetable oil. It’s worth searching for and buying the all-butter brands (Our favorite is Dufour). “This is for both flakiness and flavor,” says Perry, explaining that all-butter puff pastry will result in those gorgeous layers of dough, similar to in a pie crust. <P> More From Woman's Day. Preparation Tips: • Store-bought puff pastry can be stored in the freezer for up to 6 months in the original packaging so it doesn't absorb any of the flavors or odors around it.. If you have unused dough, Simmons advises wrapping it in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil before freezing again.

Although it is large and chaotic, providing you read Chinese and speak some Mandarin and are prepared to fight through the queues, you can buy a ticket to almost anywhere in China from here. Rail travel is by far the cheapest way to travel in and out of Changchun. If you do not want to go to the train station yourself, you can go to any good travel agent who will do this on your behalf, usually for ¥10-20 extra. <P> Between 1932 and 1945, Changchun was renamed Hsinking and was the capital of a Japanese puppet state Manchukuo occupying Northeast region of China. After Communist China 's foundation in 1949, Changchun was established the provincial capital of Jilin in 1954. Renamed Changchun by the People's Republic of China government, it became the capital of Jilin in 1954. The Changchun Film Studio is also one of the remaining film studios of the era.

<P> (veni (I came), vidi (I saw), vici (I conquered). Pepped-up horny teenagers term: vidi (I saw), vici (I conquered), veni (I came). Meaning: I saw the women, I talked to her and convinced her to go to her place, I ejaculated. Caeser: Veni, vidi, vici. Dumbass 16 y/o: vidi, vici, veni. <P> Report to Legatus Lanius immediately-he'll brief you on the plan of battle. Come back victorious, or don't come back. Veni, Vidi, Vici is the final main quest in Fallout: New Vegas if you choose to side with Caesar's Legion. Quest: Veni, Vidi, Vici. Cross the dam and make your way to the western power plant. (Optional) Take out the snipers who've taken up position in the western portion of the dam. (Optional) Release the waiting Legion reinforcements inside the intake tower. <P> Detailed walkthrough Edit. First, to initiate the quest, the player must have finished Arizona Killer and by then have access to start Veni, Vidi, Vici (which is a final test that results in the Legion attaining victory and control of the dam and New Vegas with the rest of the Mojave). Quest: Veni, Vidi, Vici. Cross the dam and make your way to the western power plant. (Optional) Take out the snipers who've taken up position in the western portion of the dam. (Optional) Release the waiting Legion reinforcements inside the intake tower. <P> Definition of Veni, vidi, vici from the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary. a Latin phrase meaning 'I came, I saw, I conquered'. It was first said by Julius Caesar after winning a battle in Asia Minor (now Turkey). Many people, especially in Britain, wrongly think he said it after defeating the Britons. <P> By N.S. Gill. Definition: In May of 47 B.C., Julius Caesar left a pregnant Cleopatra, soon to bear their son Caesarion, to rout the enemy. This enemy was Pharnaces of Pontus, an area by the Black Sea in what is modern northeastern Turkey. Caesar captured Phranaces near the town of Zela. Caesar claimed he did it all in only four hours. To inform the Senate of his victory, Caesar succinctly wrote, veni, vidi, vici 'I came, I saw, I conquered'. Pharnaces of Pontus was the son of Rome's old trouble-maker, Mithridates (Mithradates). <P> Confidence votes 70. I came, I saw, I conquered. This is a phrase that was used by Julius Caesar (13 July 100 BC - 15 March 44 BC). Veni, Vidi, Vici is the wording on a sign carried on one of Julius Caesar's triumphs celebrating his rapid victory over a kingdom in the east. It means I came, I saw, I conquered. No. However, other Latin phrases are used, such a E pluribus unum (from many, one) and Dei Gratia Regina (by the grace of God, queen). The phrase veni vidi vici is a quotati … on from Julius Caesar, meaning I came, I saw, I conquered.. It refers to one of his victories as a Roman general. <P> The phrase is used to refer to a swift, conclusive victory. Veni, vidi, and vici are first person perfect forms of the Latin verbs venire, videre, and vincere, which mean to come, to see, and to conquer, respectively. The sentence's form is classed as a tricolon and a hendiatris. It appears in Plutarch (Plut. Caes. 50) and Suetonius (Suet. Iul. The title of the poem Veni, vidi, vixi by French poet Victor Hugo, written after the death of his daughter Leopoldine at age 19 in 1843, means I came, I saw, I lived, and the first verse is J'ai bien assez vecu... , vécu which roughly translated Is i have lived well long.... enough <P> The Latin phrase veni vidi vici means I came, I saw, I conquered and is recorded as part of a declaration given by Caesar as early as 55 B.C.

what is nadh used for
|
<P> The compound is a dinucleotide, because it consists of two nucleotides joined through their phosphate groups. One nucleotide contains an adenine base and the other nicotinamide. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide exists in two forms, an oxidized and reduced form abbreviated as NAD+ and NADH respectively. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, like all dinucleotide s, consists of two nucleotides joined by a pair of bridging phosphate groups. The nucleotides consist of ribose rings, one with adenine attached to the first carbon atom (the 1' position) and the other with nicotinamide at this position. <P> Just to clear out some things: As stateted above, NADH is produced in catabolic reactions and is later used in the electron transport chain to obtain energy by converting NADH back to NAD+. NADPH is primarily produced in the oxidative part of the pentose phosphate pathway. NADPH is used in a) anabolic syntheses to produce cholesterol, fatty acids, transmittor substances and nucleotides. b) detoxifying processes as an antioxidant. <P> NAD (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). The cellular respiration processes of all living cells make use of the coenzyme Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). It plays a key role in energy metabolism by accepting and donating electrons. The low energy form NAD + shown at left is raised to the high energy form NADH. The change in the form of the active nicotinamide group in NADH is indicated above. It accepts two electrons and a hydrogen in reaching the high energy state. The NAD + is used in redox reactions in the cell and acts as a reducing agent. <P> Flavin adenine dinucleotide, or FADH2, is a redox cofactor that is created during the Krebs cycle and utilized during the last part of respiration (the electron transport chain). Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, or NADH, is a similar compound and used more actively in the electron transport chain as well. In fact, more NADH is produced and used than FADH2 in the process of creating energy. There are actually 6 NADH produced and only 2 FADH2 molecules. <P> FADH2 is the reduced version of FAD (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide) which forms from FAD by oxidising succinic acid into fumaric acid. NADH actually carries a hydrogen ion with … it and is the reduced form of NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) with a positively charged nitrogen that an electron can neutralize. They are used in the production of ATP, the 'energy currency' of the cell. FADH2 and NADH have the very important role of being electron carriers for the electron transport chain. Both are used at key points in glycolysis and/or the Kreb's cycle. FADH2: Carries electrons in the form of hydrogen atoms (1 proton and 1 electron) with 0 net charg <P> NADH Overview Information. NADH stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) + hydrogen (H).. This chemical occurs naturally in the body and plays a role in the chemical process that generates energy. People use NADH supplements as medicine <P> In metabolism, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is involved in redox reactions, carrying electrons from one reaction to another. The coenzyme is, therefore, found in two forms in cells: NAD + is an oxidizing agent – it accepts electrons from other molecules and becomes reduced. This reaction forms NADH, which can then be used as a reducing agent to donate electrons. These electron transfer reactions are the main function of NAD. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, like all dinucleotide s, consists of two nucleotides joined by a pair of bridging phosphate groups. The nucleotides consist of ribose rings, one with adenine attached to the first carbon atom (the 1' position) and the other with nicotinamide at this position. <P> The process of creating ATP from ADP is called oxidative phosphorlyation. During the electron transport chain, NADH become NAD+ and the H get transported across the membrane. As a result, electrons reduced from NAD+ are used in the transport chain. Similar thing happens to FADH2 as well. FADH2 becomes FAD+ and the H's are transported across the membrane. (Answer #1). The role of NADH and FADH2 is to donate electrons to the electron transport chain. They both donate electrons by providing an hydrogen molecule to the oxygen molecule to create water during the electron transport chain. NADH is a product of both the glycolysis and Kreb cycles.

how long should medical records be retained
|
<P> GP records should be retained until 10 years after the patient's death or after the patient has permanently left the country, unless they remain in the European Union. <P> The California Medical Association has concluded that, while a retention period of at least 10 years may be sufficient, all medical records should be retained indefinitely or, in the alternative, for 25 years. <P> Records should be retained for as long as the state's applicable statute of limitations. If the state does not have a statute of limitations regulation, then the COP recommends medical records be kept for 5 years after discharge. <P> 10 How long records are to be kept. (1) A record must be kept for at least 7 years from the date of last entry in the record, unless the patient was less than 18 years old at the date of last entry in the record. <P> The safest approach is to retain medical records for adult patients at least 10 years; longer if the patient was a minor or incompetent at the time of treatment. State regulations tend to vary widely, and often depend on how the provider is licensed. <P> In California, where there is no statutory requirement, the California Medical Association recommends that medical records be retained indefinitely or for at least 25 years after the patient’s last visit. <P> Therefore, medical records for such patients should be retained for several years after the patient reaches the age of majority; indefinitely if the patient is incompetent. Fortunately, it is not usually necessary to retain the records in paper form for the entire time. <P> 1 In all cases, medical records should be kept for at least as long as the length of time of the statute of limitations for medical malpractice claims. 2 The statute of limitations may be three or more years, depending on the state law. <P> GP records. GP records should be retained until 10 years after the patient's death or after the patient has permanently left the country, unless they remain in the European Union. Electronic patient records must not be destroyed or deleted for the foreseeable future.

<P> World’s first video arcade game. The first video game was invented by Willy Higginbotham. Willy was no teenage computer wizkid, however. In the early 1940s he worked on advanced radar displays for B28 bombers and went on to work for the Manhattan Project where he designed the timing mechanism for the first atomic bomb. The first game console was called the Brown Box, created by Ralph Baer in 1966 to control a video home console ping-pong game. <P> Introduced in 1985, the NES was an instant hit. Over the course of the next two years, it almost single-handedly revitalized the video game industry. Selling over 60 million units, people brought games like Mario and Zelda into their homes for the first time on the NES. <P> The first home video game was introduced by a physicist called Willy Higinbotham in October 1958 at the Brookhaven Nation Laboratory in New York. This video game was similar t … o a tennis match and it was played on the Oscilloscope. 1 person found this useful. <P> 1972 Magnavox's Odyssey, is the first home video game system created 1980 Battle-zone is first 3-D game ever created. 1986 Nintendo's NES is released in the U.S 1989 The first game boy was created. 1984 They start putting age limits on games 1994 PlayStation is created.

Two people played the electronic tennis game with separate controllers that connected to an analog computer and used an oscilloscope for a screen. In 1982, Creative Computing magazine picked up on the idea that Tennis for Two might be the first video game ever and it published a story on the game in that year’s October issue. It credited Higinbotham as the inventor of the video game — until they heard from someone who could document an earlier game. <P> The History of Video Games. Video games have been around since the early 1970s. The first commercial arcade video game, Computer Space by Nutting Associates, was introduced in 1971. In 1972, Atari introduced Pong to the arcad <P> In 1975, Atari introduced a home version of its popular arcade game, Pong. The original home version of Pong was sold exclusively through Sears, and even carried the Sears logo. Pong was a phenomenal success, opening the door to the future of home video games. Video games have been around since the early 1970s. The first commercial arcade video game, Computer Space by Nutting Associates, was introduced in 1971. <P> Higinbotham’s Tennis for Two was actually preceded by several other inventions — one in the late 1940s and two in the early 1950s. But it would not be fair or correct to award the title of “the first video game” to any one of these specific inventions.

how much weight can a floor joist support
|
<P> So, if I tell you that your floor can safely support 1000 pounds then that also means that your floor might theoretically fail when it receives a load of 1500 to 2000 pounds. Bearing Wall: This is a wall in your house or apartment that was designed to support the weight of the floor, wall, ceiling or roof. <P> Here are some additional details: the joists are are 2 x 8s, 16 apart. The span from a floor support beam to the exterior wall is 10 feet. The house was built in 1938. I do have an unfinished basement below, and could reinforce the floor from below with one of those adjustable posts that are sold at the home centers. <P> Question regarding how much weight 8 X 2 old joists can carry if they span a 12-13 foot area. <P> The aquarium is oriented perpendicular to the joists and my floor framing is wood joists spanning 12 ft. So this 6 ft by 12 ft portion of the floor was designed to safely support a total live load of at least 6 ft x 12 ft x 40 psf = 2880 pounds total and may actually be much stronger than that, as discussed above. <P> In this application the 2” x 6” floor joists were “let in” or mortised into a 6” x 6” beam. To do this, the 1863, carpenters cut a 3” high x 3” deep notch into the end of the joist. The beam was also cut with a 3” x 3” deep mortise or pocket to receive the floor joist. <P> Let's say you have a three foot wide safe that weighs 1,000 pounds, and your floor joists span 12 feet (which is typical). This three foot by 12 foot section of the floor was designed to safely carry a live load of 3 x 12 x 40 PSF, which equals 1,440 pounds. <P> The aquarium is oriented perpendicular to the joists and my floor framing is wood joists spanning 12 ft. So this 6 ft by 12 ft portion of the floor was designed to safely support a total live load of at least 6 ft x 12 ft x 40 psf = 2880 pounds total and may actually be much stronger than that, as discussed above. <P> A heavy aquarium such as you describe is a point load, and a 700 lb point load is a lot. Consider that standard floor loading for a bedroom is approximately 40 pounds per square foot, so a single joist spaced 16 inches on center, 15 feet long, would only pick up approximately 750 lbs total, spaced over 15 feet. <P> The safety factor in most structures is usually somewhere between 1.5 and 2.0. So, if I tell you that your floor can safely support 1000 pounds then that also means that your floor might theoretically fail when it receives a load of 1500 to 2000 pounds. Bearing wall: This is a wall in your house or apartment that was designed to support the weight of the floor, wall, ceiling or roof.

what is a registered nurse
|
<P> There are three major educational paths that can be followed to become a Registered Nurse. A student must successfully complete one of these degree programs to be eligible for the NCLEX-RN licensing examination. Once a student passes this exam they are able to practice as a Registered Nurse (RN). <P> (October 2014). A registered nurse (RN) is a nurse who has graduated from a nursing program and met the requirements outlined by a country or state licensing body in order to obtain a nursing license. An RN's scope of practice is determined by local legislation governing nurses, and usually regulated by a professional body or council. Registered nurses are employed in a wide variety of professional settings, often specializing in their field of practice. The title 'Registered Nurse' (also known in the state of Victoria as a 'Division 1 Nurse') is granted to a Nurse who has successfully completed a board approved course in the field of nursing, as outlined by education and registration standards defined by the NMBA. <P> The nursing profession, like healthcare in general, is in a state of change. The profession of nursing is becoming increasingly complex as patient care is moving out of hospitals and into outpatient and primary care settings. For years, the role of nurses has been evolving from a bedside caregiver to a specialized member of an interdisciplinary medical team. RN Salary Range. According to the latest data from the BLS, registered nurses earned an average salary of $66,640 in 2014. Reported salaries ranged from $45,880 for those in the lowest 10% to more than $98,880 in the highest 90% of earners. <P> Nursing is an excellent profession within the medical field, and registered nurse RN skills are in high demand. This site provides information about how to become a registered nurse, what a registered nurse does on the job, nursing school programs, salary information, career choices, and much more. In short, the goal of this website is to provide the best single source of information about registered nursing on the web. <P> Registered nurses usually take one of three education paths: a bachelor's degree in nursing, an associate’s degree in nursing, or a diploma from an approved nursing program. Registered nurses must also be licensed. The median annual wage for registered nurses was $65,470 in May 2012. The median wage is the wage at which half of the workers in an occupation earned more than that amount and half earned less. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $45,040 and the top 10 percent earned more than $94,720. <P> Welcome to the official Registered Nurse RN website. This site provides information about registered nurses (RNs), the nursing profession, nursing news, nurse blogs, careers & job information, nursing schools & tips for students, nursing care plans, and much more. This site is maintained by an active Registered Nurse. This site provides information about how to become a registered nurse, what a registered nurse does on the job, nursing school programs, salary information, career choices, and much more. In short, the goal of this website is to provide the best single source of information about registered nursing on the web. <P> RNs also develop and manage nursing care plans, instruct patients and their families in proper care and help individuals and groups take steps to improve or maintain their health. While state laws govern the scope of nursing practice, it is usually patient needs that determine a nurse's daily job activities. Registered nurses earn on average $64,690 a year, although compensation depends on level of education, experience, geographic location and the type of facility. Experienced registered nurses with advanced education can earn $80,000 a year or more. <P> Overview. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, registered nursing is among the top 10 occupations with the largest job growth. Registered nursing (RN) requires a large base of knowledge used to assess, plan and intervene to promote health, prevent disease and help patients cope with illness. Registered nurses earn on average $64,690 a year, although compensation depends on level of education, experience, geographic location and the type of facility. Experienced registered nurses with advanced education can earn $80,000 a year or more. <P> Registered nurses set up plans for patient care. Registered nurses (RNs) provide and coordinate patient care, educate patients and the public about various health conditions, and provide advice and emotional support to patients and their family members. The median annual wage for registered nurses was $65,470 in May 2012. The median wage is the wage at which half of the workers in an occupation earned more than that amount and half earned less. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $45,040 and the top 10 percent earned more than $94,720.

what does denier mean
|
<P> Denier is a measurement of the thickness of the yarn used to make the hosiery. The higher the denier, the thicker the yarn and hence the more opaque the hosiery will be. 40 denier hose are usually semi-opaque and 100 denier ones are opaque tights/pantyhose. However, there are also sheer tights/pantyhose that are of 100 denier as well. The higher the denier also means that the hosiery is also stronger and less likely to run easily. <P> Generally speaking, the higher the denier the heavier the fabric. Denier is not a type of fabric, weave or chemical composition. Officially, denier is a unit of measure for the linear mass density of fibers. It is defined as the mass in grams per 9,000 meters. <P> Confidence votes 9. Denier is not French for last- that's dernier . Denier is a unit of weight to measure nylon or silk, so is used in hosiery to describe the thickness of the material used. It also relates to the opacity of the material-the higher the number, the less opaque your tights. Denier nylon is a unit of measuring the thickness/weight of a thinly spun fiber. It indicates the material's durability, plus the fineness of fiber filaments and yarns - … both natural and synthetic. The higher the denier, the thicker the fiber; the lower the denier, the finer the fiber. <P> When looking at rugs with a nylon type weatherproof materials, a Denier rating will often be given. The finer the thread used, the more strands can be used per square inch of material. This makes the material more tear resistant but also stiffer. <P> The noun DENIER has 3 senses: 1. a unit of measurement for the fineness of silk or nylon or rayon. 2. any of various former European coins of different denominations. 3. one who denies. Familiarity information: DENIER used as a noun is uncommon. <P> The linear density of a fiber is commonly measured in units of denier or tex. Traditional units include worsted count, cotton count and yield. Tex is more likely to be used in Canada and Continental Europe, while denier remains more common in the United States and United Kingdom. <P> Report Abuse.

It refers to the thickness of the thread, 15 denier tights are sheer, very fine, so that you can hardly see that you're wearing any. Therefore, 100 denier, is almost opaque, so that you can barely see through them. It is obvious then that 40 denier is somewhere between the two, smart and hard-wearing. 40 denier hose are usually semi-opaque and 100 denier ones are opaque tights/pantyhose. However, there are also sheer tights/pantyhose that are of 100 denier as well. The higher the denier also means that the hosiery is also stronger and less likely to run easily. <P> Well denier just means how thick/heavy the yarn is used to make the tights. It doesn't necesseraly mean they are more opaque, it just means the tights will be thicker So 80 denier are made with the heaviest yarn. Source(s): My tights drawer and years of wearing tights (sorry I can't add links, I'm on my I pod. Best Answer: The denier is fabric thickness. The higher the number the thicker the fabric. Thus you get much more opaque tights. They tend to go hand in hand which is why hosiery manufacturers market denier as level of sheerness.

Denier is a unit of weight to measure nylon or silk, so is used in hosiery to describe the thickness of the material used.

at what age should chickens have grower feed
|
<P> If you’re raising layer hens: From when your chicks hatch until six weeks of age, feed your chicks a starter feed that has a protein level of 20-22 percent. Once the chicks hit six weeks of age, feed them pullet grower (14 to 16 percent protein) until age 20 weeks. After that, switch your hens to layer feed with a protein level of 15 to 18 percent. (MONEY-SAVING SECRET: Layer feed is often expensive. It can be costly, to both your budget and your chickens’ health! The University of California-Davis recommends the following for feeding layer hens: 1 Chick starter: 2 to 2.9 lbs. 2 per chick for the first six weeks. 3 Pullet grower: 12 to 13 lbs. 4 per pullet for approximately 14 weeks. 5 Layer feed: 1.8 to 2.4 lbs. <P> For feeding meat chickens, the university notes that 10 chickens will eat 30 to 50 lbs. of broiler starter until six weeks of age, and 16 to 20 lbs. of broiler finish until slaughter. It can be costly, to both your budget and your chickens’ health! The University of California-Davis recommends the following for feeding layer hens: 1 Chick starter: 2 to 2.9 lbs. 2 per chick for the first six weeks. 3 Pullet grower: 12 to 13 lbs. 4 per pullet for approximately 14 weeks. 5 Layer feed: 1.8 to 2.4 lbs. <P> This DuMOR® Chick Starter/Grower 20% Feed is a complete formula for starting chicks, ducks, and geese up to 10 weeks of age and for growing turkeys and gamebirds from 6 weeks to market or laying age. Grower --. Feed as the sole ration to chicks 12 weeks of age as a finisher. Grower feed is meant to feed until the chickens begin to lay, then bird can be switched to a complete Laying. Most Grower feed is Non-Medicated but some are Medicated with Bacitracin. <P> 1. Change the starter feed to “grower feed” purchased from a feed supply store at 8 to 10 weeks. The protein level should be around 16 percent protein. Birds that will be used for meat can have up to 20 percent protein in their grower feed <P> As an energy supplement, I add one tablespoon of sugar per quart the first time I water newly hatched chicks. A chick starter feed should be fed to all chicks until they are 6 weeks of age. You can get this at your local feed store. After this time, feed them a pullet grower feed until about 20 weeks. Then they can be switched to a laying feed. <P> Food. From hatching until 8 weeks of age chickens should be fed chick starter. From 8 weeks of age until about 18-20 weeks of age they should be fed pullet grower. These foods are specifically formulated to provide chickens with the high nutrition demands of the rapid early growth that chickens have. Once chickens reach the point where they start laying eggs (usually about 18 – 20 weeks of age) you can start them on a layer food. We feed our chickens layer pellets or crumble rather than a scratch mix as we find there is less waste with layer pellets. <P> 1. Begin feeding your laying hens layer feed at 20 weeks of age. You can also use all-purpose feed; however, layer feed can have up to 2 percent more protein and more calcium content to promote better eggshells. You will need 18 to 24 lbs. (8 to 11 kg) of feed per week for 10 chickens. Change the starter feed to “grower feed” purchased from a feed supply store at 8 to 10 weeks. The protein level should be around 16 percent protein. Birds that will be used for meat can have up to 20 percent protein in their grower feed <P> Grower Feeds. At 10 weeks of age, a grower feed should replace the starter feed. Grower feeds are typically 15%-16% protein, and are designed to sustain growth to maturity. The higher protein content (20%), in starter/grower feeds is recommended for growing game birds. Grower --. Feed as the sole ration to chicks 12 weeks of age as a finisher. Grower feed is meant to feed until the chickens begin to lay, then bird can be switched to a complete Laying. Most Grower feed is Non-Medicated but some are Medicated with Bacitracin. <P> HOW TO FEED. Chick Grower is a complete feed that should be fed to broiler and pullet chicks as the sole ration. Broilers -- offer free-choice to broiler chicks 3 to 7 weeks of age. At 7 weeks of age, transition birds to Ranch-Way’s Broiler-Finisher Ration. Pullets – offer free-choice to pullet chicks from 3 to 12 weeks of age.

how much do water polo players make
|
<P> Recently it has really started taking off. League players and Olympic participants, while earning less than most other Olympic athletes, still make a healthy salary. The average water polo player earns $47,300 per year. The general range of income for professional water polo players is between $36,400 and $57,200. <P> You can't hit the ball if you can't get to it. A polo pro's income depends on being well mounted. Competition forces a pro to be prepared physically, mentally, and with ponies that allow him to play at the highest level. The majority of polo pros devote significant amounts of time to training polo ponies. A polo pro will normally own a string of 7 to 20 playing ponies and have additional ponies in training. A polo pro will use at least 6 horses in a polo match. <P> The salary for a professional water polo player varies by team, location and how good the player is. An average is around $30,000. Answer Obviously, the amount of money a professional racquetball player makes will depend largely upon their skill and the events that they enter. IRT Pro event p … rize moneys range from $0-$30,000+, with 33 such events being held each season. <P> Dimensions of the water polo pool are not fixed and can vary between 20×10 and 30×20 meters. Minimum water depth must be least 1.8 meters (6 feet), but this in reality is sometimes not the case due to practicalities. The goals are 3 meters wide and 90 centimeters high. In addition to this, teams may have substitute field players and one substitute goalkeeper who are not in the water. Water polo is typically played in an all-deep pool (usually at least 1.8 m deep or 5.9 feet), and players require stamina and endurance to play the game. Water polo is a contact sport. Minor fouls occur frequently and exclusion fouls (in which a player is suspended from the game for 20 seconds) are common <P> To make recruiting even more difficult, coaches value international water polo players just as much as they do domestic water polo players. If you want to secure a water polo scholarship by the time you are a senior in high school, you must learn how to control your own fate when it comes to recruiting. <P> Polo has started to take off recently in terms of popularity. But how much do the players make? The average professional polo player earns a salary of $142,000 per year. Individual salaries can range from anywhere between $73,000 and $500,000. The most prestigious players can even break $1 million. Many pro polo players supplement their salary through managing polo clubs and teaching the sport as well as horseback riding. Others train and sell polo ponies. <P> Average Salary There's been a revision to the 2005 average salary. The baseball players' association revised its 2005 salary average on Tuesday, lowering it by abo … ut $2,500 to $2,476,589. Even players not eligible for arbitration do pretty well, but if you can stick around four years, you're pretty much set for life. It all depends on how many matches they play. If they play so many matches they will earn so much money it depends on how much there sports agent allowed them to average. As … of Nov 14 2011, The professional volleyball player's average salary is 69,000. <P> Joan Gould. Water Polo Planet. The idea of a professional water polo league is not a new one in the US, having been discussed off an on for the past few years. The idea has gained momentum in the past few years and more water polo people are looking at such a league as a positive growth move for the sport. <P> The salary for a professional water polo player varies by team, location and how good the player is.

what does the dormant commerce clause prohibit
|
<P> The Dormant Commerce Clause involves not federal power to act but the restrictions on state power which are inherent in the Commerce Clause. There is no actual “Dormant Commerce Clause” found in the Constitution. Rather, the restrictions on state action have been inferred by the Supreme Court from the Commerce Clause. You will recall that in Gibbons v. Ogden, 9 Wheat. In Lopez, Kennedy pointed out that “One element of our dormant Commerce Clause jurisprudence has been the principle that the States may not impose regulations that place an undue burden on interstate commerce, even where those regulations do not discriminate between in-state and out-of-state businesses” Lopez at 579. <P> The Commerce Clause does not prohibit a state from imposing a tax on a natural resource that is produced within its borders and that is sold primarily to residents of other states. In Commonwealth Edison Co. v. Montana, 453 U.S. 609, 101 S. Ct. 2946, 69 L. Ed. <P> Therefore, individual states are limited in their ability to legislate on such matters. The dormant Commerce Clause does not expressly exist in the text of the United States Constitution. It is, rather, a doctrine deduced by the U.S. Supreme Court and lower courts from the actual Commerce Clause of the Constitution. A negative or dormant component to the Commerce Clause has been the subject of scholarly discussion for many decades. Both Supreme Court Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas have rejected the notion of a Dormant Commerce Clause. <P> Dormant Commerce Clause Law & Legal Definition. Dormant commerce clause refers to a constitutional principle that is inferred from the commerce clause. The dormant commerce clause provides that the exclusive power granted to Congress through commerce clause, implies a negative consequence. The negative consequence is a restriction prohibiting a state from passing legislation that improperly discriminates against interstate commerce. The dormant clause doctrine is also known as negative commerce clause. The following is an example of a case law defining dormant commerce clause: Dormant commerce clause means differential treatment of in-state and out-of-state economic interests that benefits the former and burdens the latter. <P> The “dormant commerce clause” of the Constitution limits state power over interstate commerce. The dormant commerce clause is implicated when: • A state enacts a law that regulates, directly or indirectly, interstate commerce; and • Congress has not legislated on the matter that is regulated by the state law. However, this doctrine is not based on the text of the Constitution. • Transportation, especially regulations applying to trucking and railroads. • Waste disposal and related public health issues. Congress also has a role to play in the dormant commerce clause analysis. As was stated above, the dormant commerce clause only applies to state laws that do not have a federal counterpart. <P> The “dormant” Commerce Clause refers to the prohibition, implied in the Commerce Clause, against states passing legislation that discriminates against or excessively burdens interstate commerce. The Commerce Clause has been used to justify the use of federal laws in matters that do not on their face implicate interstate trade or exchange. Early on, the Supreme Court ruled that the power to regulate interstate commerce encompassed the power to regulate interstate navigation. Gibbons v. Ogden, 22 U.S. 1 (1824) <P> The dormant Commerce Clause doctrine stands for the proposition that, since regulation of interstate commerce is a power affirmatively granted to the Federal government, the states have no right to regulate it in a way that unduly burdens interstate commerce. <P> Therefore, the dormant commerce clause limits the power individual states to legislate on such matters. Dormant commerce clause is not an express clause in the U.S. Constitution. It is, rather, a doctrine developed by the U.S. Supreme Court. The dormant clause doctrine is also known as negative commerce clause. The following is an example of a case law defining dormant commerce clause: Dormant commerce clause means differential treatment of in-state and out-of-state economic interests that benefits the former and burdens the latter. <P> The idea behind the dormant Commerce Clause is that this grant of power implies a negative converse — a restriction prohibiting a state from passing legislation that improperly burdens or discriminates against interstate commerce. A negative or dormant component to the Commerce Clause has been the subject of scholarly discussion for many decades. Both Supreme Court Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas have rejected the notion of a Dormant Commerce Clause.

what is yellow bumps on kale leaves
|
<P> Now the leaves on my kale containers are continuing to yellow. From what I've heard and read there a bunch of causes for the leaves of kale to yellow. The most important thing is that kales are a decent size, so I am gonna harvest and eat them before the end of the week. <P> Now the leaves on my kale containers are continuing to yellow. From what I’ve heard and read there a bunch of causes for the leaves of kale to yellow. It could be a lack of nitrogen, so I added coffee grinds to help with the yellow leaves. <P> This has let to some of the plant leaves getting rather large 6-7 across and easily over a foot in length. On one of my Siberian Kale plants the leaves have these spiny bumps on them (see pic). None of my other Kales plants have this. <P> Losing Nutrition. Kale loses nutrients as the leaves yellow, so you won't get the same nutritional punch. Green kale is rich in vitamins A, C and K, along with the mineral manganese and plenty of fiber. Steaming kale makes more of the nutrients available when it's fresh and green. <P> Upon inspection we identify the ‘culprit’ as Leaf Galls, which is not an active insect problem. Leaf Galls appear as bumps on the leaves. They can be red, green or black and can be shaped like little round BB’s or like a Unicorn horn sticking out of the leaf. <P> Symptoms. Kale infected with downy mildew produces yellowish spots on the tops of leaves, according to the Alabama Cooperative Extension. As the disease progresses, yellow spots enlarge, leaves become thin or take on the consistency of paper, defoliation occurs and the plant dies. Furthermore, young kale plants may turn completely black when the disease enters their vascular system.

<P> In general, doctors recommend that people stay on an antidepressant at least one year to experience the full benefits. Beyond that, when -- and whether -- you should to go off depression medication is a personal choice that requires serious thought. This article will help you understand different types of medications that treat depression, how the use them most effectively, and what to consider when deciding how long to take them. Reviewed by Brunilda Nazario, MD. If you are considering taking an antidepressant, you may be concerned about how long you’ll need to stay on it. Even if you feel that it will help treat your depression, you may not like taking any medicine if you can help it. You may wonder about side effects or long-term effects of taking a drug that alters brain chemistry. If you’re already taking a medication for depression, you might be wondering about when to stop <P> Postpartum psychosis requires immediate treatment, often in the hospital. Treatment may include: 1 Medication. 2 When your safety is assured, a combination of medications — such as antidepressants, antipsychotic medications and mood stabilizers — may be used to control your signs and symptoms. 3 Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). <P> In contrast to the postpartum “baby blues,” which affects 50 to 85 percent of women for a brief duration (usually 1 or 2 weeks after delivery), postpartum depression is associated with more severe and persistent symptoms that are present most of the day nearly every day for at least two weeks. Postpartum Depression. Following childbirth, about 10 to15 percent of all women experience postpartum depression, or PPD, which is depression associated with the aftermath of pregnancy. About 30 to 70 percent experience symptoms for one year or even longer. <P> Postpartum Depression-Medications. Antidepressants are commonly used, usually in combination with counseling and support. You may start to feel better within 1 to 3 weeks of taking antidepressant medicine. But it can take as many as 6 to 8 weeks to see more improvement. If you have questions or concerns about your medicines, or if you don't notice any improvement by 3 weeks, talk to your doctor <P> Depression: Dealing With Medicine Side Effects. Antidepressants are typically used for at least 6 months, first to treat postpartum depression and then to prevent a relapse of symptoms. To prevent a relapse, your doctor may recommend that you take medicine for up to a year before you think about stopping it. Antidepressants are commonly used, usually in combination with counseling and support. You may start to feel better within 1 to 3 weeks of taking antidepressant medicine.

effect of water current climate
|
<P> In fact, almost all rain that falls on land starts off in the ocean. The tropics are particularly rainy because heat absorption, and thus ocean evaporation, is highest in this area. Outside of Earth’s equatorial areas, weather patterns are driven largely by ocean currents. Currents are movements of ocean water in a continuous flow, created largely by surface winds but also partly by temperature and salinity gradients, Earth’s rotation, and tides (the gravitational effects of the sun and moon). Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. <P> This tutorial explores ocean circulation patterns and the effect that the ocean has on climate. Water in the ocean holds a lot of thermal energy (more than an equal amount of land). Throughout the ocean there is a global circulation system that transfers this thermal energy across the Earth. The Earth’s weather patterns, which consist of different conditions of temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind, air pressure, etc., result in various climate zones across the globe. Weather and climate are the result of the transfer of energy from the sun at and near the surface of <P> Surface ocean currents are primarily affected by wind patterns. Trade winds can push water along the top of the ocean and aid in the formation of surface currents. One example of a wind-driven circulation affecting an ocean current is the Gulf Stream. Increasing carbon dioxide levels in waters and warmer water temperatures impact global ocean circulations, which are one of the primary drivers of weather, temperature, precipitation, and seasons, and therefore affect a variety of aspects of health. <P> Surface Currents and Climate Surface currents greatly affect the climate in many parts of the world. The surface temperature of the water affects the temperature of the air above it. Warm currents heat air and cause warmer air temperatures. Section 2 Currents and Climate Key Concept Ocean currents transport energy, affect climate and weather, and distribute nutrients. What You Will Learn • Surface currents affect climate by distributing energy around Earth. • Changes in surface currents, such as El Nino, niño can cause changes in weather. patterns <P> How they move influences climate and living conditions for plants and animals, even on land. Currents flow in complex patterns affected by wind, the water's salinity and heat content, bottom topography, and the earth's rotation. Surface water movement takes place in the form of currents. Currents move ocean water horizontally at the ocean's surface. Surface currents are driven mainly by the wind. Other forces such as the Coriolis effect and the location of landmasses do affect surface current patterns. The Coriolis Effect explains how the earth's spin causes the wind to curve. <P> The ocean plays a fundamental role in shaping the climate zones we see on land. Illustration of major ocean currents throughout the globe. Ocean currents act as conveyer belts of warm and cold water, sending heat toward the polar regions and helping tropical areas cool off. The world’s ocean is crucial to heating the planet. While land areas and the atmosphere absorb some sunlight, the majority of the sun’s radiation is absorbed by the ocean. Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. <P> Winds blowing on the surface of the ocean push the water. Friction is the coupling between the wind and the water's surface. A wind blowing for 10 hours across the ocean will cause the surface waters to flow at about 2% of the wind speed. Water will pile up in the direction the wind is blowing. These waters make up about 10% of all the water in the ocean. These waters are the upper 400 meters of the ocean. 2. Deep Water Currents -- Thermohaline Circulation. These waters make up the other 90% of the ocean. These waters move around the ocean basins by density driven forces and gravity. <P> Warm-Water Currents and Climate Surface currents are often warmer than deep currents, but the temperatures of surface currents do vary. Coastal areas that are affected by warm-water currents tend to have warmer climates than inland areas of the same latitude have.

<P> A VA loan is a mortgage loan in the United States guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The loan may be issued by qualified lenders. The VA loan was designed to offer long-term financing to eligible American veterans or their surviving spouses (provided they do not remarry).

how long does diazepam stay in your system for a urine test
|
<P> Answer by sanityrose (2664). Valium is a benzodiazepine that can be detected in the urine for 1-4 days after use. Since the drug is metabolized weight, time of use, and milligram will determine the exact days. If you are using a higher dosage (heavy user) it will take 5-11 days to leave the urine. add a comment. Answer by Anonymous. I once took 2, 5mg tablets of valium in an evening and that showed up in a drug test I took 3 weeks later, so I know first hand that it takes at least 3+ weeks to get out of your system. <P> Answer by Liz59 (10966). Valium will stay in your urine for about 2-3 days before it actually comes out. The reason for this is that you will need to detoxify your body before total elimination. A way in which you can actually get rid of all the valium is by constantly drinking water all of the time. Answer by Anonymous. I once took 2, 5mg tablets of valium in an evening and that showed up in a drug test I took 3 weeks later, so I know first hand that it takes at least 3+ weeks to get out of your system. <P> If it's just a general knowledge question, like I said, about 72 hours. It depends on you, what your dose is, what benzodiazepine you are on. If you are a long time user of benzodiazepines, or short time user. It can stay in your system for 1-5 days or 1-6 weeks, or up to 6 months. It just depends. <P> Hi, diazepam stay in your sistem up to 6 weeks but allot relies on your height and weight, amount of physical activity ect. Also Detection Period for Benzodiazepines (Includes Diazepam, Valium, Xanax, ect) : urine test- 1- 42 days hair,blood and saliva tests-unknown. Pamela R · 7 years ago. Thumbs up. 0. Report Abuse. The elimination half life of diazepam (including its metabolites) is 100 hours. It will take approx. 700 hours (29 days) to be able to pass a urine drug test. <P> Testing cutoff concentrations for benzodiazepine are at 200 ng/mL. So how long do benzos stay in the body? Benzodiazepine can be detected up to 30 days in urine although chronic use (1+ years) can be detected 4–6 weeks after last dose in urine. Benzos can also be detected in serum and plasma for 12 hours to 2 days after last dose. 1. Ultra short acting benzos – The half-life of ultra short acting benzodiazepines is less than 5 hours. These drugs are essentially non-accumulating. 2. Short acting and intermediate benzos – This class of benzodiazepines have half-life values from 5-24 hours and can be dosed more frequently. <P> 182. Valium can stay in your system and be detected in urine for up to 5-7 days after therapeutic use. Chronic use (over one year) of Valium, however, can be detected much longer. The detection window for Valium in urine screens is up to 4-6 weeks. More here on the detection window and drug testing for Valium. Valium half life: how long does Valium stay in your system. The half life of any drug, medication or substance is the period of time necessary for 1/2 the drug to be eliminated or disintegrated by natural processes in the body. The half life of Valium is particularly long, 20-80 hours. <P> For benzos allot depends on the body fat ratio and metabolic rate. Approx detection time for single use (urine test) is 7-10 days but 10 mg is not to much so best you can do is to give your self 4-5 days and home test your first morning urine, with highest concentration. Valium can be detected in urine for up to 25 days usually. The length of time it takes for the drug to leave the body depends on a persons age, height, and weight. 1 person found this useful. Edit.

what causes tear stains
|
<P> 1. Excessive tearing can occur as a result of irritation to your dog’s eyes or because your dog’s tears are not draining properly. Just as your eye waters if a speck of dust blows into it, dogs’ eyes will make tears when irritated to flush away anything harmful. <P> Nature of Tear Stains. Tear staining is most obvious on dogs with white and other light color coats or with heavy wrinkles. The stain is usually reddish-brown. Whenever hair rests around the eyes some amount of tear staining results from the hair wicking moisture from the eyes, both above and mainly below the eye. <P> The most common cause of tear stains in dogs is excess tearing or epiphora, which makes the hair and skin around the eyes damp. This can lead to the growth of bacteria and yeast. Red yeast, which produces a reddish brown discoloration of the face, is a common cause of tear stain problems. <P> 1 Tear staining in dogs and cats is typically caused by excessive tear production, though it can also be a sign of a serious eye-related disease. 2 The condition is more common in certain breeds and is more obvious in pets with light-colored coats. <P> Tear Stains are a leaky brown or reddish goop that flows from the pets eye and creates a mark or streak on the fur that is hard to remove. They can also be called blood stains. Tear Stains can begin as a puppy or occur later in the adult years of dogs. They sometimes even have a smell to them, which is not pleasant. <P> There can be many reasons for why your pet gets tear stains. Different causes include blocked tear ducts, eye diseases, parasites, bacterial infections, allergies, abnormally shaped eyes and genetic predisposition. The most common cause of tear staining is excessive tearing, a condition called epiphora. This makes the hair around the eyes damp, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria and yeast. Red yeast produces a reddish brown discoloration on the face, and it is a common cause of tear stain problems. <P> Excess Tearing. The most common cause of tear stains in dogs is excess tearing or epiphora, which makes the hair and skin around the eyes damp. This can lead to the growth of bacteria and yeast.

SINGAPORE has the fourth-best life expectancy rate in the world, latest World Health Organisation (WHO) figures reveal. Average life expectancy at birth stood at 82 years in 2011, making it a joint fourth with Italy. Women here can expect to live to 85 and men to the age of 80. The top three countries were Japan-which has a female life expectancy of 86 and a male life expectancy of 82 - Switzerland and San Marino. All three have an average life expectancy of 83, far outstripping the global average of 70.

delayed type hypersensitivity mechanism
|
<P> Cell-mediated immunity (CMI) is a T-cell–mediated defense mechanism against microbes that survive within phagocytes or infect nonphagocytic cells. CMI functions to enhance antimicrobial actions of phagocytes to eliminate microbes. CMI manifests as delayed type cellular immune responses as typically seen in Mantaux test. In experimental animal models, delayed-type hypersensitivity responses are characterized by a granulomatous response consisting of macrophages, monocytes, and T lymphocytes. In skin, keratinocytes are also thought to have a role. <P> The cellular events that result in delayed hypersensitivity reactions primarily involve T cells and macrophages. First, local immune and inflammatory responses at the site of foreign antigen up-regulate endothelial cell adhesion molecule expression, promoting the accumulation of leukocytes at the tissue site. Delayed hypersensitivity is a major mechanism of defense against various intracellular pathogens, including mycobacteria, fungi, and certain parasites, and it occurs in transplant rejection and tumor immunity. The central role of CD4 + T cells in delayed hypersensitivity is illustrated in patients with AIDS. <P> The actual mechanisms underlying cell destruction are multiple (see Table Type II hypersensitivity-antibody-dependent cytotoxicity) : (i) complement-dependent red blood cell lysis, for example as a result of haemolytic transfusion reactions (HTR) caused by ABO incompatibility and in other forms of haemolytic anemias. The tissue response caused by type I hypersensitivity reactions is now well understood and is determined by the binding of IgE antibodies to a high affinity receptor which binds the Fc portion of IgEs with subnanomolar affinity and is located on the membrane of mast cells and basophils. <P> Type 4 hypersensitivity is often called delayed type hypersensitivity as the reaction takes two to three days to develop. Unlike the other types, it is not antibody mediated but rather is a type of cell-mediated response. CD4+ helper T cells recognize antigen in a complex with Class II major histocompatibility complex. Activated CD8+ T cells destroy target cells on contact, whereas activated macrophages produce hydrolytic enzymes and, on presentation with certain intracellular pathogens, transform into multinucleated giant cells. <P> The cellular events that result in delayed hypersensitivity reactions primarily involve T cells and macrophages. First, local immune and inflammatory responses at the site of foreign antigen up-regulate endothelial cell adhesion molecule expression, promoting the accumulation of leukocytes at the tissue site. <P> Hypersensitivity reactions can be divided into four types: type I, type II, type III and type IV, based on the mechanisms involved and time taken for the reaction. Frequently, a particular clinical condition (disease) may involve more than one type of reaction. The precise mechanism as to why some individuals are more prone to type-I hypersensitivity is not clear. However, it has been shown that such individuals preferentially produce more of TH2 cells that secrete IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 which in turn favor IgE class switch. <P> They are also termed type IV hypersensitivity reactions. Delayed hypersensitivity is a major mechanism of defense against various intracellular pathogens, including mycobacteria, fungi, and certain parasites, and it occurs in transplant rejection and tumor immunity. The central role of CD4 + T cells in delayed hypersensitivity is illustrated in patients with AIDS. <P> Type IV Hypersensitivity. Type IV hypersensitivity is also known as cell mediated or delayed type hypersensitivity. The classical example of this hypersensitivity is tuberculin (Montoux) reaction (figure 5) which peaks 48 hours after the injection of antigen (PPD or old tuberculin). The lesion is characterized by induration and erythema. The precise mechanism as to why some individuals are more prone to type-I hypersensitivity is not clear. However, it has been shown that such individuals preferentially produce more of TH2 cells that secrete IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 which in turn favor IgE class switch. <P> • 3 involve antibody- • Type I (immediate): mediated by IgE (Mast Cells)• Type II: mediated by IgG or IgM• Type III (immune complex disease): IgG & complement • One involves antigen specific cells. • Type IV: Delayed type hypersensitivity, cell-mediated immune memory response. Type II hypersensitivity. • The antibodies produced by the immune response bind to antigens on the patient's own cell surfaces• These cells are recognized by macrophages, which act as antigen presenting cells• This causes a B cell response where antibodies are produced against the foreign antigen. <P> Five types of hypersensitivity reactions have been described: types I, II, III and V depend on antigen antibody interactions and have been termed ‘immediate’ and type IV reactions depend on interaction of antigen with T lymphocytes and has been called ‘delayed‐type hypersensitivity’, or DTH.

how long does a bottle of wine take to get out your system
|
<P> If you are talking about the alcohol, it takes and hour for you body to dissolve (for lack of a better word) 1 beer, shot, or glass of wine. So two drinks, two hours, ect. ect … . The EtG, a widely-used urine alcohol test is unreliable. Unfortunately, is sensitive for several days after any exposure to alcohol products. Depends on how fast you metabolize alcohol and how big the glass is, but usually a human will metabolize it at the rate of 1 oz. per hour. Assuming the wine is a standard 12% … ABV, then for a normal glass I'd say about 1 to 11/2 hour. <P> A small (125ml) glass of wine is equivalent to about 1.5 units as is a 275ml bottle of alcopops. A 5% alcohol-strength pint of beer is 2.8 units. Adding up your units If you drink a large (250ml) glass of wine, your body takes about three hours to break down the alcohol. If you drink one pint of beer, your body takes about two hours to break it down. One pint of strong lager is equivalent to three units, so this will take longer. <P> The alcohol in wine that is consumed is metabolized at the rate of .015 of blood alcohol concentration (BAC) every hour. Thus a person with a very high BAC of .15 will have no … measurable alcohol in the bloodstream after ten hours (.15 divided by .015 = 10). 15 people found this useful. Zenballwizard. A long time! Usually the longer the bottle of wine stays unopened; the better it is supposed to be. I know a person who owns a bottle of wine that is 30 years old. <P> After drinking, your liver processes about 1 shot per hour. The equivalent of 1 shot of straight alcohol is an 8oz glass of wine. Also, you didn't give a starting time or ending time of the wine drinking, nor did you include how much wine. A bottle could be 12oz or 64oz. Alcohol leaves the system at approx 1 unit per hour. So a 75cl bottle of wine, the normal size, at 14% will be gone from your system in 9 hours (approx 12 hours per litre). Weatherman · 6 years ago. Thumbs up. <P> Alcohol is metabolized at a different rate in each person, but there are some factors that play a role in how long alcohol stays in your system. The body can metabolize about one drink per hour, which is the equivalent of the following: 1 One can of beer or a 12-ounce glass. 2 Five ounces of wine. <P> Adding up your units. If you drink a large (250ml) glass of wine, your body takes about three hours to break down the alcohol. If you drink one pint of beer, your body takes about two hours to break it down. One pint of strong lager is equivalent to three units, so this will take longer. If you have a few drinks during a night out, it can take many hours for the alcohol to leave your body. The alcohol could still be in your blood the next day. This means that if you drive the day after an evening of drinking, you could be over the legal alcohol limit. <P> Well it depends on the consumption. One drink will stay in your system for one hour. So say you had 5 drinks in 4 hours. You would still have one in your system. the only thing water does is keep you hydrated because alcohol depletes you of water. <P> Report Abuse. That depends on what time you finish drinking. Alcohol leaves the system at approx 1 unit per hour. So a 75cl bottle of wine, the normal size, at 14% will be gone from your system in 9 hours (approx 12 hours per litre). Weatherman · 6 years ago. Thumbs up. <P> Confidence votes 16.4K. On average it takes the body 3 hours to metabolize one ounce of wine. Therefore, a standard five ounce glass of wine will be in your system for approximately 15 hours. It takes about an hour for the body to metabolize one standard drink (five ounces of dinner wine). Depends on how fast you metabolize alcohol and how big the glass is, but usually a human will metabolize it at the rate of 1 oz. per hour. Assuming the wine is a standard 12% … ABV, then for a normal glass I'd say about 1 to 11/2 hour. <P> Too many variables. Anyway, usually whatever the answer of these question is - 8 hours is enough to absorb 3 glasses of wine at the 90% of peoples (except if your glass is a huge 0.5l glass :P), so you must be safe.

<P> thyrotropin. a hormone secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland that has an affinity for and specifically stimulates the thyroid gland. Called also thyroid-stimulating hormone. thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH). a tripeptide produced in the hypothalamus and released into the hypothalamohypophyseal portal circulation to reach the adenohypophysis where it triggers the release of <P> Thyroid stimulating hormone is produced by the pituitary gland. Its role is to regulate the production of hormones by the thyroid gland. Alternative names for thyroid stimulating hormone TSH; thyrotropin, thyrotrophin. What is thyroid stimulating hormone? Thyroid stimulating hormone is produced and released into the bloodstream by the pituitary gland. It controls production of the thyroid hormones, thyroxine and triiodothyronine, by the thyroid gland by binding to receptors located on cells in <P> Thyroid-stimulating hormone, also known as thyrotropin, is secreted from cells in the anterior pituitary called thyrotrophs, finds its receptors on epithelial cells in the thyroid gland, and stimulates that gland to synthesize and release thyroid hormones. The most important controller of TSH secretion is thyroid-releasing hormone. Thyroid-releasing hormone is secreted by hypothalamic neurons into hypothalamic-hypophyseal portal blood, finds its receptors on thyrotrophs in the anterior pituitary and stimulates secretion of TSH. <P> thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), a substance produced in the hypothalamus that stimulates the release of thyrotropin (thyroid-stimulating hormone) from the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. Formerly called thyrotropin-releasing factor, TSH-releasing factor. (thī'rō-lib'ĕr-in). thyrotropin-releasing hormone. n. Abbr. TRH A tripeptide hormone secreted by the hypothalamus that stimulates the release of thyrotropin. <P> Clinical Significance. Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone (TRH) is a tripeptide produced primarily by the hypothalamus. TRH is produced from a prohormone, which contains multiple copies of the TRH molecule meaning that several TRH entities can be released from one precursor. It has a stimulatory effect on the pituitary releasing thyrotropin (TSH). TRH secretion is controlled in a negative feedback system by thyroid hormones. Binding of TRH to its receptor causes a rise in calcium which initiates TSH secretion. <P> Principle. TRH (thyrotropin releasing hormone) is a tripeptide secreted by the hypothalamus which stimulates the production and secretion of TSH by the anterior pituitary. TRH stimulates prolactin release. <P> The system of the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. TRH is produced by the hypothalamus in medial neurons of the paraventricular nucleus. 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. The sequence of TRH was first determined, and the hormone synthesized, by Roger Guillemin and Andrew V. Schally in 1969. Both parties insisted their labs determined the sequence first: Schally first suggested the possibility in 1966, but abandoned it after Guillemin proposed TRH was not actually a peptide. <P> Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), also called thyrotropin-releasing factor (TRF), thyroliberin or protirelin, is a tropic, tripeptidal hormone, produced by the hypothalamus, that stimulates the release of TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) and prolactin from the anterior pituitary. The sequence of TRH was first determined, and the hormone synthesized, by Roger Guillemin and Andrew V. Schally in 1969.

what does contractionary mean?
|
<P> Definition: Expansionary monetary policy is when a central bank, such as the Federal Reserve, uses its tools to stimulate the economy. The effect is an increase in the money supply, lower interest rates, and a rise in overall aggregate demand. <P> Definition: Monetary policy is the macroeconomic policy laid down by the central bank. It involves management of money supply and interest rate and is the demand side economic policy used by the government of a country to achieve macroeconomic objectives like inflation, consumption, growth and liquidity. <P> DEFINITION of 'Contractionary Policy'. A type of policy that is used as a macroeconomic tool by the country's central bank or finance ministry to slow down an economy. Contractionary policies are enacted by a government to reduce the money supply and ultimately the spending in a country. This is done primarily through: 1. Increasing interest rates. 2. <P> DEFINITION of 'Expansionary Policy'. A macroeconomic policy that seeks to expand the money supply to encourage economic growth or combat inflation (price increases). One form of expansionary policy is fiscal policy, which comes in the form of tax cuts, rebates and increased government spending. Expansionary policies can also come from central banks, which focus on increasing the money supply in the economy.

what compounds can catalyze a reaction of a weak nucleophile and a carbonyl group
|
<P> The acid protonates the oxygen of the carbonyl group first, rendering the carbon more positive. Then the nucleophile attacks. This is the typical route with weaker nucleophiles, such as water, alcohols and phenols. These nucleophiles will all add to the carbonyl group without added acid, but the addition of acid catalyzes the reaction. Many of the additions to carbonyl groups are reversible, with the equilibrium favoring the carbonyl compound, so that not all addition products are able to be isolated. <P> For carbonyl as a ligand, see Metal carbonyl. A compound containing a carbonyl group (C=O). In organic chemistry, a carbonyl group is a functional group composed of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom: C=O. It is common to several classes of organic compounds, as part of many larger functional groups. A compound containing a carbonyl group is often referred to as a carbonyl compound. <P> Because of the polarization of the carbonyl group, with partial positive charge on carbon, nucleophiles attack the carbon of the carbonyl group, and an electrophile. most commonly a proton or a metal cation, attaches to oxygen. These nucleophiles will all add to the carbonyl group without added acid, but the addition of acid catalyzes the reaction. Many of the additions to carbonyl groups are reversible, with the equilibrium favoring the carbonyl compound, so that not all addition products are able to be isolated. <P> Nucleophilic acyl substitution describe a class of substitution reactions involving nucleophiles and acyl compounds. In this type of reaction, a nucleophile – such as an alcohol, amine, or enolate – displaces the leaving group of an acyl derivative – such as an acid halide, anhydride, or ester. Under basic conditions, a nucleophile (Nuc) attacks the carbonyl group of the acyl compound 1 to give tetrahedral alkoxide intermediate 2. The intermediate collapses and expels the leaving group (X) to give the substitution product 3. <P> Let's begin reviewing reactions of amines with carbonyl compounds. When we first looked at aldehydes and ketones, we learned that the characteristic pattern of many reactions of the carbonyl group begins with the formation of a bond between the carbonyl carbon and an attacking nucleophile. The idea which emerges from this is that a strong nucleophile can attack directly, without help from an acid catalyst. For a weak nucleophile, an acid catalyst is needed so that the carbonyl carbon is prepared to share a pair of electrons as a new covalent bond. If we look at the mechanism of reaction between an aldehyde and an amine, we see how these factors balanc <P> Nucleophiles are Lewis bases (such as NH 3 or the OH-ion). The polarity of the C=O double bond can be used to explain the reactions of carbonyl compounds. Aldehydes and ketones react with a source of the hydride (H -) ion because the H-ion is a Lewis base, or nucleophile, that attacks the d + end of the C=O bond. When this happens, the two valence electrons on the H-ion form a covalent bond to the carbon atom. Reactions at the Carbonyl Group. Reagents that attack the electron-rich d-end of the C=O bond are called electrophiles (literally, lovers of electrons). Electrophiles include ions (such as H + and Fe 3+) and neutral molecules (such as AlCl 3 and BF 3) that are Lewis acids, or electron-pair acceptors. <P> Nomenclature of Aldehydes and Ketones. Aldehydes and ketones are organic compounds which incorporate a carbonyl functional group, C=O. The carbon atom of this group has two remaining bonds that may be occupied by hydrogen or alkyl or aryl substituents. If at least one of these substituents is hydrogen, the compound is an aldehyde. <P> Here's an early example in which the nucleophile is an OH-group. This reaction step works because the OH-group is a strong nucleophile (and a strong base) very capable of using one of its unshared pairs of electrons to make a new covalent bond. The idea which emerges from this is that a strong nucleophile can attack directly, without help from an acid catalyst. For a weak nucleophile, an acid catalyst is needed so that the carbonyl carbon is prepared to share a pair of electrons as a new covalent bond. If we look at the mechanism of reaction between an aldehyde and an amine, we see how these factors balance <P> Aldehydes and ketones are simple compounds which contain a carbonyl group-a carbon-oxygen double bond. They are simple in the sense that they don't have other reactive groups like-OH or-Cl attached directly to the carbon atom in the carbonyl group-as you might find, for example, in carboxylic acids containing-COOH. The slightly positive carbon atom in the carbonyl group can be attacked by nucleophiles. A nucleophile is a negatively charged ion (for example, a cyanide ion, CN -), or a slightly negatively charged part of a molecule (for example, the lone pair on a nitrogen atom in ammonia, NH 3).

what is bad aerophagia
|
<P> Everyone has experienced aerophagia to a certain extent, and when it happens and enough air is swallowed it's often expelled through burping. Aerophagia can be caused by eating foods that produce gas in the stomach-like bran, vegetables, beer or soda-or by excessive salivation. Eating quickly, eating with your mouth open, and drinking while eating are also said to contribute to aerophagia. <P> Aerophagia may also refer to an unusual condition where the primary symptom is excessive flatus, belching is not present, and the actual mechanism by which air enters the gut is obscure. Aerophagia in psychiatry is sometimes attributed to nervousness or anxiety. Aerophagia is a dangerous side effect of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) , commonly used in treatments of respiratory problems and cardiovascular critical care or in surgery when a general anaesthetic is required. <P> To define, aerophagia is a condition that occurs when a person swallows too much air, which goes to the stomach. It causes gas bloating of the abdomen and frequent belching. It may cause pain, too, which sometimes is difficult to diagnose. DoctorQuestion. For about 4 years now i have what i believe to be aerophagia. it is controlling my life and making me miserable. some articles say it's mainly behavioral but i have a hard time believing that because i will try and follow the suggestions and nothing helps. <P> Aerophagia occurs when air from a CPAP enters the esophagus and goes into the belly, rather than the airway and into the lungs. This can cause gas pains and distension of the stomach. It is common and can happen to anyone who uses CPAP. For the CPAP patient, aerophagia and stomach bloating is much more prevalent than you might think. It’s not a subject many feel comfortable talking about, but this side effect of CPAP use is an important issue to discuss and with proper changes to therapy, it can be resolved. <P> Aerophagia Causes and Resolutions. Tracy R. Nasca. CPAP users who experience excessive belching, stomach bloating, stomach distension and agonizing gas pains may be suffering from aerophagia. It’s the medical term for the phenomenon when air enters the esophagus, goes into the belly and causes bloating. For the CPAP patient, aerophagia and stomach bloating is much more prevalent than you might think. It’s not a subject many feel comfortable talking about, but this side effect of CPAP use is an important issue to discuss and with proper changes to therapy, it can be resolved. <P> The simple definition of aerophagia is when you swallow too much air into your gastrointestinal tract. Most people swallow a little air when speaking, eating or drinking. But in cases of aerophagia, the amount of swallowed air is so large it can cause abdominal bloating, intestinal pain and excessive burping and belching. The majority of swallowed air is usually burped back out, but with excessive mouth breathing the air may regularly pass from the stomach into the small intestine. Aerophagia and Anxiety. When we are anxious, nervous or tense we may swallow air without realizing it. Too much caffeine from coffee can definitely contribute to this but stress at work or in personal relationships is also often a factor. <P> Aerophagia and excessive belching are 2 different conditions that often are mistaken for each other. Aerophagia is a disorder in which the voluminous intake of air results in abdominal distention and bloating, in contrast to excessive belching disorder in which belching is the predominant symptom. In this review the available knowledge on the management of belching, hiccups, and aerophagia is discussed. 1 of 5. <P> Aerophagia Symptoms. Aerophagia (air swallowing, excessive or constant burping) is defined as a condition when a person swallows too much air. This air is usually goes to the stomach. People with Aerophagia are believed to have excessive belches due to air swallowing. You probably also heard terms like constant or excessive belching or burping. These conditions are closely related to aerophagia but not necessarily caused by it. <P> Aerophagia (var. aerophagy) is a condition of excessive air swallowing, which goes to the stomach. Aerophagia is associated with chewing gum, smoking, drinking carbonated drinks, eating too quickly, CPAP air pressure (if it is too high) and wearing loose dentures. Aerophagia is a dangerous side effect of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) , commonly used in treatments of respiratory problems and cardiovascular critical care or in surgery when a general anaesthetic is required.

what is the genre soul pop music
|
<P> Alternative music can be separated in the following genres: Alternative rock is a genre of rock music that emerged from the underground music scene of the 1980s and became widely popular in the 1990s. The term alternative was coined in the 1980s to describe punk rock-inspired bands on independent record labels that did not fit into the mainstream genres of the time. Alternative Dance. Alternative dance is a term used for the genre of music combining elements of dance-pop (or other forms of electronic dance music such as house or techno) and alternative rock genres such as indie pop. <P> Soul is a popular music genre that originated in the United States in the 1950s and early 1960s. Soul music dominated the U.S. African-American music charts in the 1960s, and many recordings crossed over into the pop charts in the U.S. Otis Redding was a huge success at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967. The genre also became highly popular in the UK, where many leading acts toured in the late 1960s. <P> View More. Soul music is a combination of R&B and gospel and began in the late 1950s in the United States. Soul diffirentiates from R&B due to Soul music's use of gospel-music devices, its greater emphasis on vocalists and its merging of religious and secular themes. Soul music can find its roots in 4 different sources: racial, geographical, historical and economical. Soul music was born in Memphis and more widely in the southern US where most of the performing artists were from. More than any other genre of popular American music, Soul is the result of the combination and merging of previous styles and substyles in the 1950s and 60s. <P> Rhythm and Blues (R&B) was, and still is, a term used for a number of post-war American popular music forms. The term is credited to Jerry Wexler when he was editing the charts in Billboard magazine (1947). It was formally introduced to American vernacular in 1949, when it was used in the Billboard chart listings. <P> Soul also became popular around the world, directly influencing rock music and the music of Africa. According to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, soul is music that arose out of the black experience in America through the transmutation of gospel and rhythm & blues into a form of funky, secular testifying. Catchy rhythms, stressed by handclaps and extemporaneous body moves, are an important feature of soul music. Soul music dominated the U.S. African-American music charts in the 1960s, and many recordings crossed over into the pop charts in the U.S. Otis Redding was a huge success at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967. The genre also became highly popular in the UK, where many leading acts toured in the late 1960s. <P> Read More. Pop-Soul is soul music that has been polished slightly and given a commercially viable, crossover production. The vocals are still raw, but the material and the sound of the record could easily fit onto pop radio stations' playlists. Motown was the pioneering label of pop-soul, and through much of the '60s, it was one of the most popular pop music genres. <P> Soul music dominated the U.S. R&B chart in the 1960s, and many recordings crossed over into the pop charts in the U.S., Britain and elsewhere.

how much sugar recommended in a day
|
<P> The recommended sugar intake will stay at below 10% of total calorie intake a day, with 5% the target, says the WHO. The suggested limits apply to all sugars added to food, as well as sugar naturally present in honey, syrups, fruit juices and fruit concentrates. <P> 1 Women may reduce the daily sugar intake to 17 g per day and men can aim for 25 g per day. 2 Your physician can help you develop a target range for sugar intake. 3 A glucometer is a portable device that measures blood glucose levels. 4 These can be found at any drug store and you should become skilled at using it. <P> The average American consumes 3 pounds of sugar a week and 130 pounds a year, reports Forbes.com. This is equal to about 3,550 pounds of sugar in a lifetime. The consumption of added sugar accounts for an intake of 500 calories per day, which can cause a weight gain of 1 pound per week. <P> For an average 2000-calorie diet, the World Health Organization recommends that a maximum of 10% of the total calories come from added sugar. This equates to less than 50 grams of added sugar per day. <P> The recommended sugar intake for adult women is 22 grams of sugar per day, for adult men, it’s 36 grams daily, and for children, it’s 12 grams a day. <P> Recommendations vary based on organization. For example, the World Health Organization recommends keeping added sugar intake to 10% of total calories. For the average 2000 calorie-diet that's a maximum of 50 grams. The American Heart Association recommends 6 teaspoons of sugar for women and 9 for men (1 teaspoon of sugar has about 4g of sugar). <P> 1 In Portugal, official dietary recommendations suggested limiting added sugar to 20-30 grams per day. 2 Turkish officials suggested 30 grams for women and 40 for men, or 10% of total calories. 3 Georgia wanted its citizens eating between 50-100 grams of sugar per day. <P> The World Health Organization recommends people obtain no more than 5% of daily calories from added sugar. That’s about 6 teaspoons or 25 grams on a typical diet, and it’s half of what they previously recommended a year or two ago.

golden state starting lineup

<P> David Lee has been the starting power forward for the Golden State Warriors since the 2010-11 season and has put up numbers worthy of that spot since his arrival.

In Andrew Bogut's place is the once-formidable Andris Biedrins, who has shown a lot more effort this season. <P> The Golden State Warriors’ starting lineup, also known as #FullSquad, was arguably the best starting unit in the entire league last season. With the entire group returning and a new head coach who is going to put an emphasis on spreading the floor and moving the ball around, the offense is expected to improve. <P> With arguably the best roster in the whole league, Golden State didn’t do much during the off season, and their starting five is unlikely to change from now until the start of the season. Here is the projected starting five for the defending champs: PG – Stephen Curry. <P> The Golden State Warriors have not strayed too far from their normal starting lineup this season. The biggest hole to fill has been the center position, where the extended absence of Andrew Bogut has given more time to rookie Festus Ezeli and backup center Andris Biedrins. <P> Predicting the Golden State Warriors’ Starting Five for the 2015-2016 Season.

Confabulation: A term used when imagination becomes confused with memory or true memories are confused with false memories. 2 It may have a psychological basis or may be caused by some sort damage to the brain or certain drugs used in chemical warfare (e.g. Quinuclidinyl benzilate). <P> Still others propose that all types of false memories, including confabulation, fit into a general memory and executive function model. In 2007, a framework for confabulation was proposed that stated confabulation is the result of two things: problems with executive control and problems with evaluation. Confabulation is associated with several characteristics: 1 Typically verbal statements but can also be non-verbal gestures or actions. 2 Can include autobiographical and non-personal information, such as historical facts, fairytales, or other aspects of semantic memory. 3 The account can be fantastic or coherent. <P> Confabulation (verb: confabulate) is a memory disturbance, defined as the production of fabricated, distorted or misinterpreted memories about oneself or the world, without the conscious intention to deceive.

Confabulation is a memory disturbance that is characterized by verbal statements or actions that inaccurately describe history, background, and present situations. Provoked, momentary, or secondary, confabulation represents a normal response to a faulty memory and is common in both amnesia and dementia. Provoked confabulations can become apparent during memory tests. Another distinction found in confabulations is that between verbal and behavioral. <P> What is important to remember is that confabulation is a direct result of damage to the brain — the person is not making things up as we traditionally understand it, but truly believes what he or she is reporting. The areas of the brain generally associated with confabulation are the frontal lobes and basal forebrain.

what is one function of the skeletal system
|
<P> The musculoskeletal system provides form, support, stability, and movement to the body. It is made up of the bones of the skeleton, muscles, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, joints, and other connective tissue that supports and binds tissues and organs together. The musculoskeletal system's primary functions include supporting the body, allowing motion, and protecting vital organs. <P> Protection. One of the main functions of skeletal system involves protection to the soft and delicate internal organs of the body. The brain is protected by the skull, the nerves are protected by the spinal column, the rib cage provides protection to the heart and lungs. The skeletal system is made up of bones and cartilages. There are 206 bones in the body and these bones and cartilages help provide the support and points of attachment to many soft tissues, muscles and ligaments in the body. <P> This is a little in brief about the skeletal system functions in the body. You are able to move because of the skeletal system and your internal organs are protected by the sturdy skeletal system. You need to eat a healthy diet and provide your bones with much-needed minerals and nutrients. The skeletal system is made up of bones and cartilages. There are 206 bones in the body and these bones and cartilages help provide the support and points of attachment to many soft tissues, muscles and ligament <P> The skeletal system includes all of the bones and joints in the body. Each bone is a complex living organ that is made up of many cells, protein fibers, and minerals. The skeleton acts as a scaffold by providing support and protection for the soft tissues that make up the rest of the body. The skeletal system’s primary function is to form a solid framework that supports and protects the body's organs and anchors the skeletal muscles. The bones of the axial skeleton act as a hard shell to protect the internal organs—such as the brain and the heart —from damage caused by external forces. <P> Advertisement. The most obvious and one of the important skeletal system functions is to provide the body support and shape. Without the skeletal system, our bodies will be just mass of flesh and guts. The skeletal system helps provide a framework to your body. The skeletal system is made up of bones and cartilages. There are 206 bones in the body and these bones and cartilages help provide the support and points of attachment to many soft tissues, muscles and ligaments in the body. <P> The adult human skeletal system consists of 206 bones, as well as a network of tendons, ligaments and cartilage that connects them. The skeletal system performs vital functions — support, movement, protection, blood cell production, calcium storage and endocrine regulation — that enable us to survive. The skeletal system is also susceptible to breaks, strains and fractures. While bones are meant to protect the body’s vital organs, it takes about 10 to 16 pounds of pressure to break an average bone. <P> The skeletal system. The skeletal system is comprised of bones and joints and provides the basic supporting structure of the body. It consists of the joined framework of bones called the skeleton. The human skeleton is made up of 206 bones. Click here for a drawing of a the major bone structures of the body. The function of the musculoskeletal system is to: 1 protect and support the internal structures and organs of the body. 2 allow movement. 3 give shape to the body. 4 produce blood cells. 5 store calcium and phosphorus. 6 produce heat. <P> The skeletal system in the body provides the shape, supports and protects organs and the soft areas of the body. Its others functions are bodily movement, producing blood for the body, and storing minerals that the physical structure needs. Shape and Support. The skeleton is made up of various bones and provides the framework for the body. Thus, the skeleton provides the basic shape and structure for the body. Cranium: protects the brain. Ribs/sternum: protects the lungs, heart and digestive organs. Pelvis: protects and supports the digestive and reproductive organs. Spinal column: protects the major nervous system branching into the entire system, and holds up your body like the trunk on a tree. <P> Overview. The human skeleton consists of 206 bones. When put together, the skeletal system provides the base framework to which all the other tissues and organs attach, giving shape to the human body. <P> : Knowledge of the structure and function of bones and aspects of skeletal system generally are essential parts of training in human biology, medicine and associated health sciences. This page is intended to include the detail required for most Basic / First Level Courses in many therapies, and some ITEC Diplomas.

irs someone claimed by social security number
|
<P> The IRS uses your Social Security Number (SSN) to make sure your filing is accurate and complete, and that you get any refund you are due. Identity theft can affect how your tax return is processed. 1 1-800-908-4490. 2 Report the fraud. 3 Send a copy of your police report or an IRS ID Theft Affidavit Form 14039 [PDF] and proof of your identity, such as a copy of your Social Security card, driver’s license or passport. 4 Update your files. <P> An identity thief also might use your Social Security number to file a tax return to receive your refund. If you are eligible for a refund, a thief could file a tax return before you do and get your refund. Then, when you do file, the IRS will think you already received your refund. A dishonest person who has your Social Security number can use it to get other personal information about you. Identity thieves can use your number and your good credit to apply for more credit in your name. Then, they use the credit cards and do not pay the bills <P> 4. Contact the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). If an identity thief is using your Social Security number for employment, the employer will use your Social Security number to report income earned. The identity thief may also use your number to file a tax return in order claim a tax refund. <P> Identity theft occurs when someone, without your permission, uses your or your child’s personal information such as name, Social Security number, or other identifier to commit fraud or other crimes. Identity theft, and child identity theft in particular, can cause a host of problems in the credit and financial worlds. You usually won’t even realize you are victim of tax-related identity theft until you get a notice from the IRS. That notice might tell you that someone has already filed using your, or your child’s, Social Security number. The IRS also might say that: 1 More than one tax return was filed in your name. <P> If Someone Claims Your Child as a Dependent. When you try to file your taxes, rightfully claiming your child as a dependent, you’ll likely receive a message from the IRS saying someone has already claimed the person with that Social Security number as a dependent and your return has been modified to exclude that person. Once someone’s Social Security number has been stolen, it can be extremely difficult to prevent abuse. Contact the credit bureaus and notify them your child’s Social Security number has been stolen, and regularly request the child’s credit reports to make sure no one is opening unauthorized accounts in his or her name. <P> Identity theft places a burden on its victims and presents a challenge to businesses, organizations and government agencies, including the IRS. Tax-related identity theft occurs when someone uses your stolen social security number to file a tax return claiming a fraudulent refund. The IRS combats tax-related identity theft with an aggressive strategy of prevention, detection and victim assistance. We are making progress against this crime, but it remains one of our highest priorities. And, if you become a victim, we are committed to helping you resolve your case as quickly as possible. <P> 1 Report the fraud. 2 Send a copy of your police report or an IRS ID Theft Affidavit Form 14039 [PDF] and proof of your identity, such as a copy of your Social Security card, driver’s license or passport. 3 Update your files. 4 Record the dates you made calls or sent letters. 5 Keep copies of letters in your files. 1 1-800-908-4490. 2 Report the fraud. 3 Send a copy of your police report or an IRS ID Theft Affidavit Form 14039 [PDF] and proof of your identity, such as a copy of your Social Security card, driver’s license or passport. 4 <P> You need a Social Security number to claim your child as a dependent on your income tax return. Your child may also need a number if you plan to• Open a bank account for the child;• Buy savings bonds for the child;• Get medical coverage for the child; or• Apply for government services for the child. <P> Filing. Since someone else has already claimed your dependents on their income tax return, you will not be able to file electronically as the e-file system does not allow for duplicate input of Social Security numbers.

how long does henna dye last
|
<P> Henna will stain your hair red-orange; but this stain is translucent and will combine with your natural color. Body art quality henna has a much higher dye content than the henna usually sold for hair. Henna is the best hair conditioner of all. It will make your hair heavy, thick and silky. <P> Henna tattoo designs can be equivalent in how they look to regular tattoos. Tattoos have been in existence practically as long as humans have and include a wide assortment cultural meanings and importance. Tattoos are recognized nowadays as a type of creative reflection. <P> A. Designs last from one to three weeks on the skin, depending on your body temperature, skin type, body chemistry, lifestyle, and where the henna is applied. The average person gets a stain that lasts 10 days to two weeks. <P> It is permanent on most. But like a car it will fade over time. It all depends on your hair and how absorbent it is etc. More than likely it will last a 30-90 days and you do it again. Get the root touch up kit so if it does last longer and you do not want it deeper red then just do the root touch ups. The root touch up comes with the application kit. <P> 234. 738. 2758. Depending on how long the paste was left on, where the tattoo is located, and the natural properties of the individual's skin, henna stains will last anywhere between a week and a month.

what is the difference between a certified and registered respiratory therapist
|
<P> Respiratory Care credentials are a bit like nursing. We have two primary levels. A CRT or certified respiratory therapist is the entry level credential. The next level up is called RRT or registered respiratory therapist. It requires (a bit more school-maybe) and passing two additional exams. We are often called RCP (respiratory care practitioner). RCP includes both CRTs and RRTs. <P> Registered Respiratory Therapist. The registered respiratory therapist credential requires additional education and professional experience. Those interested in obtaining the registered respiratory therapist credential have several pathways to qualify to take the registered respiratory therapist exam. All states except Alaska require a license to practice professionally as a respiratory therapist. Most states require completion of an educational program approved by the state, submitting an application and fee and passing a state-administered exam. <P> Answers. Best Answer: After completing a course of study in Respiratory Therapy, you can take the voluntary exam to become a Certified Respiratory Therapist (CRT) and after that you can take two (2) more national exams to become a Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT).. Submit. · just now. Report Abuse. after completing 2 yrs of respiratory school, u can take your boards for the crt-certified respiratory therapist. u have to pass the crt in order to become an rrt-registered respiratory therapist, which u have to take another boards and a simulation test. <P> David, The difference between CRT (Certified Respiratory Therapist) and RRT (Registered Respiratory Therapist) is one of education and training. The RRT will have a college degree, either an associates or bachelors. The CRT is an entry-level program. <P> Confidence votes 18. A registered respiratory therapist passes a national board exam (2 part exam) and is considered an advanced respiratory practitioner. A certified resp. therapist also must pass a board exam (1 single exam) and is considered an entry-level practitioner. Pay rates are better if you are registered, job opportunities are also better. In my experience though, CRT's and RRT's work side-by-side doing the same jobs in the workplace <P> The third pathway includes a bachelor’s degree in a discipline other than respiratory care, with 62 hours of college coursework in mathematics, chemistry, physics, microbiology, anatomy, and physiology and 2 years of full-time clinical experience. All states except Alaska require a license to practice professionally as a respiratory therapist. Most states require completion of an educational program approved by the state, submitting an application and fee and passing a state-administered exam. <P> The Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT) national credential is an advanced. credential in the profession that recognizes the individual as having advanced. clinical skills, advanced decision-making skills, and further training to act in a. consulting role in matters concerning patient care planning and treatment. Certified Respiratory Therapist (CRT) Entry-Level exam is taken first. After. passing the exam with at least a 75%, the CRT credential is awarded and the. therapist must then apply for state license.

what zone do almond trees grow in
|
<P> 1 There are two types of almond tree: trees that grow sweet almonds and trees that grow bitter almonds. 2 Bitter almonds and their fruit aren't safe for eating. 3 Bitter almonds contain prussic acid, a toxic chemical. 4 Just a handful of raw, unprocessed bitter almonds can potentially be deadly. <P> Step 1. Find a place to plant the almond tree. It should be an area with full sun where it can be watered generously, although almond trees are a little more tolerant to dry weather. The area also needs proper drainage, so plant the tree on a slope if possible. Plan to plant the almond tree in the spring. Almond trees can be planted in most regions, but they do not fare well in areas with long winters that have long periods with temperatures in the single digits. They grow best in moderate to dry climates. <P> Almond. Almond trees (Prunus dulcis) grow in zones 7 to 9, producing edible fruit and showy, fragrant blooms in hues of white and pink. To achieve the best fruit production, two or more almond trees are required. Almond trees reach heights of only 10 to 15 feet and grow well in compact gardens. <P> Make sure your area has proper almond growing conditions. Almond trees, which are native to the hot and arid climate of the Middle East and South Asia, do best with hot summers and mild winters and do not adapt to other conditions especially well. Almonds do not usually grow at all in colder climates. <P> Growing in zones 5 through 9, black walnut (Juglans nigra) trees can grow up to 100 feet tall and are drought tolerant with a resistance to verticillium wilt. <P> Almond trees are well-suited for most home growers because of their small, compact nature. The almond tree is a relative of the peach tree and the edible almond seed even develops inside a peach-like fruit or “hull” that is discarded after harvest. <P> Almond trees can provide you with a yearly harvest of nuts for up to 50 years once they start, which is usually by the age of five years. By 12, your almond trees should be producing a full harvest of nuts for you. A healthy tree can product between 30 and 50 pounds of almonds each year. <P> Delicious, nutritious almonds come from the fruit of the almond tree, which is native to the Middle East and South Asia and a relative to peach, apricot, and other stone fruit trees.

what transports nutrients and waste
|
<P> It carries oxygen from and carbon dioxide to the lungs, nutrients from the digestive system or storage sites to tissues that require them, and waste products from the tissues to the liver for detoxification and to the kidneys for disposal. <P> The function of the red blood cells is to transport oxygen from the lungs to the body cells. A red protein called Haemoglobin, when the blood reaches the lungs, oxygen diffuses from the alveoli to the red blood cells and combines with haemoglobin forming an unstable compound called oxyhaemoglobin. Plasma from the blood capillaries move to the tissue through gaps in the walls. They become tissue fluid. They exchange their content of oxygen and nutrients with the cells and take carbon dioxide and waste products. <P> The Circulatory System. The heart, the blood, and the blood vessels make up a system for the transport of gases, nutrients, and chemical wastes. The primary functions of the circulatory system are the following: 1 To transport nutrients and oxygen to the cells. 2 To remove waste and carbon dioxide from the cells. <P> The human transport system is a system of tubes with a pump and valves to ensure one way blood flow. We need a transport system to deliver oxygen, nutrients and other substances to all our body cells, and take away waste products from them. The oxygenated blood (high in oxygen, red in color) comes to the heart from the lungs in the pulmonary vein; the heart pumps it to the aorta (an artery) to the rest of the body. Plasma from the blood capillaries move to the tissue through gaps in the walls. They become tissue fluid. They exchange their content of oxygen and nutrients with the cells and take carbon dioxide and waste products. <P> The blood is the transport system by which oxygen and nutrients reach the body's cells, and waste materials are carried away. The heart, a muscular organ, positioned behind the ribcage and between the lungs, is the pump that keeps this transport system moving. In the capillaries, food and oxygen are released to the body cells, and carbon dioxide and other waste products are returned to the bloodstream. The blood then travels in veins back to the right side of the heart, where it is pumped directly to the lungs. <P> This makes up most of the blood. It is mostly water with some substances dissolved in it, these include carbon dioxide, hormones, food nutrients, urea and other waste products. The blood plasma transports substances from one place to another. Plasma from the blood capillaries move to the tissue through gaps in the walls. They become tissue fluid. They exchange their content of oxygen and nutrients with the cells and take carbon dioxide and <P> ❑ Circulates OXYGEN and removes Carbon Dioxide. ❑ Provides cells with NUTRIENTS. ❑ Removes the waste products of the metabolism to the excretory organs for disposal. ❑ Protects the body against disease and infection. ❑ Clotting stops bleeding after injury. ❑ Transports HORMONES to target cells and organs. <P> The four major functions of the cardiovascular system are: 1. To transport nutrients, gases and waste products around the body. 2. To protect the body from infection and blood loss. 3. To help the body maintain a constant body temperature (‘thermoregulation’). 4. The systemic circuit is made up of the heart and all the remaining arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, and veins in the body. This circuit pumps oxygenated (red) blood from the heart to all the tissues, muscles and organs in the body, to provide them with the nutrients and gases they need in order to function.

why is genetic variation necessary for evolution to occur
|
<P> Best Answer: Evolution by natural selection requires three ingredients: 1. Variation 2. Inheritance 3. Competition If any of these three factors are absent, no evolution can occur. They work *together*. The reason that variation is important is because there is competition among members of the same species. Namely, more individuals are born than can possibly survive to reproduce. So that means that some will produce more offspring than others <P> A source of new variability is necessary for continued evolution to occur. Sources of genetic diversity External. Much of variation in populations, species, is retained due to changes in the environment (adaptive traits are only good in some environments, and not in others). For any evolutionary change to occur there must be some genetic variation in the population; the greater the amount of variability, the greater the possibilities for change. Natural selection decreases variability in populations: in a uniform environment, better adapted types should completely replace unfit types. <P> RE: Why is genetic variation important for evolution? if everyone in the gene pool has all the alleles mixed among everyone, how can evolution take place? and should not there be less genetic variation so that there are more drastic allele frequencies for something actually evolve please thank you. The reason that variation is important is because there is competition among members of the same species. Namely, more individuals are born than can possibly survive to reproduce. <P> Genetic variation is a fact that a biological system – individual and population – is different over space. It is the base of the genetic variability of different biological systems in space. Genetic variation is based on the variation in alleles of genes in a gene pool. It occurs both within and among populations, supported by individual carriers of the variant genes. Genetic variation is brought about by random mutation, which is a permanent change in the chemical structure of a gene. Random mutations are the ultimate source of genetic variation. Mutations are likely to be rare and most mutations are neutral or deleterious, but in some instances the new alleles can be favored by natural selection. <P> Report Abuse. Genetic variation is considered the raw material for natural selection. When an organism comes up with a mutation, and it appears in the phenotype, the variation either increases, decreases, or doesn't change the animal's fitness, thus furthering natural selection. <P> 1 A single mutation can have a large effect, but in many cases, evolutionary change is based on the accumulation of many mutations. 2 Gene flow is any movement of genes from one population to another and is an important source of genetic variation. 3 Sex can introduce new gene combinations into a population. Without genetic variation, some of the basic mechanisms of evolutionary change cannot operate. There are three primary sources of genetic variation, which we will learn more about: 1 Mutations are changes in the DNA. <P> Genetic variation is the raw material of evolution. Without genetic variation, a population cannot evolve in response to changing environmental variables and, as a result, may face an increased risk of extinction. <P> 1 Mutations are changes in the DNA. 2 A single mutation can have a large effect, but in many cases, evolutionary change is based on the accumulation of many mutations. 3 Gene flow is any movement of genes from one population to another and is an important source of genetic variation.

Definition: In genetic variation, the genes of organisms within a population change. Gene alleles determine distinct traits that can be passed on from parents to offspring. Gene variation is important to the process of natural selection. The genetic variations that arise in a population happen by chance, but the process of natural selection does not. Natural selection is the result of the interactions between genetic variations in a population and the environment. The environment determines which variations are more favorable.

average cost to make a jacket
|
<P> The cost of a jacket depends on the design of the item and the amount of work needed to create it. We try our very best to give our customers the very best prices. We can do this as we design and manufacture ourselves. The main factor which will effect the price of your jacket will be the size and length of the garment and the type of leather used. The more leather that is required the more it will cost to manufacture. There are three kind of leather we use the most. Soft Lambskin, Milled Cowhide and Aniline Cowhide. <P> 1 This will usually include anywhere from 1,000 to 5,000 stitches. 2 The more stitches that you need for a particular piece, the more it will cost. 3 Larger logos that take up more space, such as a jacket back, can cost upwards of $30 to $45 per piece. 1 The more stitches that you need for a particular piece, the more it will cost. 2 Larger logos that take up more space, such as a jacket back, can cost upwards of $30 to $45 per piece. 3 To play it safe, it is best to budget $1 to $2 per 1,000 stitches. <P> 1 Larger logos that take up more space, such as a jacket back, can cost upwards of $30 to $45 per piece. 2 To play it safe, it is best to budget $1 to $2 per 1,000 stitches. 3 There are several companies that offer embroidery services and you can expect them to charge at different rates. 1 The more stitches that you need for a particular piece, the more it will cost. 2 Larger logos that take up more space, such as a jacket back, can cost upwards of $30 to $45 per piece. 3 To play it safe, it is best to budget $1 to $2 per 1,000 stitches. <P> 1 The average price of adjusting the shoulders of a coat or a jacket is at $30 to $50. 2 Adjusting the hem runs at $15 to $20 while shortening the sleeves with or without buttons can cost $35 to $45. 3 Shortening the length of the coat costs around $40 to $45. 1 While all of these are factors in determining the cost of alterations, each tailor determines his own prices, and therefore the price will vary from one shop to the next. 2 <P> Leather jackets and items really are not that expensive when bought wholesale. But most mark up a lot, so that’s why leather jackets seem to cost so much. A good quality motorcycle jacket, when bought wholesale, cost around $45.00 to $110.00. So, most sell it retail for $90.00 to around $220.00. Now I’m talking quality stuff, not cheap crap, and I’m talking about a thick, tuff motorcycle jacket. Good quality suede leather jackets and coats cost less because suede is cheaper to make. Now like anything that sells, there is a normal range that you expect to pay for an item. A lamp cost around $10.00 to $50.00 bucks. A kids plastic toy truck, $2.00 to $10.00. But leather jackets, there seems to be a wide range of prices. <P> 1 This piece can range anywhere from a simple hat to a larger t-shirt. 2 This will usually include anywhere from 1,000 to 5,000 stitches. 3 The more stitches that you need for a particular piece, the more it will cost. 4 Larger logos that take up more space, such as a jacket back, can cost upwards of $30 to $45 per piece. 1 The more stitches that you need for a particular piece, the more it will cost. 2 Larger logos that take up more space, such as a jacket back, can cost upwards of $30 to $45 per piece. 3 To play it safe, it is best to budget $1 to $2 per 1,000 stitches. <P> A short jacket made from this type of leather will cost on average 120 UK Pounds. Aniline Cowhide is made from Top Cow skin. It is soft and waxy at the same time very durable. It is heavier than Lambskin but lighter then Milled Cowhide. The main factor which will effect the price of your jacket will be the size and length of the garment and the type of leather used. The more leather that is required the more it will cost to manufacture. There are three kind of leather we use the most. Soft Lambskin, Milled Cowhide and Aniline Cowhide. <P> Not anybody can do this type of stuff, and at that point when you start spending $200 to $300 in alterations on a single piece of clothing, that’s when you may want to start considering getting something new unless it is a high-quality jacket that you’d pay $1500 or $2000. Now let’s say you want to have the sleeves shortened or lengthened. That’s going to cost you approximately $25 to $35 to have those sleeves shortened or lengthened. The exception to this is if you have working buttonholes. <P> The wholesale price is $152, he says, and the average retail price is $335. Of course, plenty of these jeans sell at substantially less than full price. ENLARGE. True Religion's top-selling jeans, the Super T, cost about $50 to make and sell wholesale to retailers for $152 a pair. The average price in stores is $335. They feature white stitching on the back pocket and around the waistband. F. Martin Ramin for The Wall Street Journal, Styling by Anne Cardenas.

what is the average cost of a morkie
|
<P> The cost for a purebred Yorkie with AKC registration varies drastically based on the many factors below, but on average, an AKC licensed breeder will charge around $1200 and $1500 and up per puppy. Additionally most breeders request a non-refundable deposit (of around $200-$300) during the application process. One of the best ways to spot a backyard breeder is based on the price of the puppy. While reputable AKC breeders charge around $1200 – $1500 for a typical companion Yorkie, backyard breeders usually range on the lower end and are always more than willing to negotiate on price if they feel a sale is likely. <P> Morkie appearance varies widely, some expressing more of a Yorkshire terrier appearance and some a more Maltese look. They are a small breed dog, usually ranging from 4-12 pounds. Common colors expressed in Morkie coats are: Black, brown, tan and white. The Morkie is a designer breed of dog which is a cross between a purebred Yorkshire terrier and a purebred Maltese. This crossbreed originated in the United States. In addition, Morkies can be bred with each other. The Morkie hybrid breed is not recognized by the American Kennel Club as a “bona fide” breed of dog <P> 1 On average, a Yorkie Poo is going to cost anywhere from $400 to as much as $1,000. 2 Puppyfind.com, for example, has several Yorkie Poos for sale. 3 Here, the prices range anywhere from as little as $350 to as much as $850. 4 The puppies here range anywhere from 7-14 weeks on average. <P> The smaller it is the higher the risk. As for cost it's going to vary depending on where you live. Yorkies are the toy dog of the moment so from a breeder for an AKC registered pup you can probably look at $500 and upwards. I know where I am it would be $1,000-$1,500. They don't come cheap. As I said a Yorkie rescue is a much better choice for a reasonibly priced dog. <P> 1 Texasteacups.com quotes $675 to $3,500 as an average price for morkie puppies currently available for sale. 2 Morkies sold by some breeder have complete shots and up-to-date worming, together with feeding and care instructions and a health certificate from the veterinarian. A Morkie is a crossbreed between a Maltese and Yorkshire terrier; therefore it is not a pure breed. The dog inherits combined traits of both breeds making it very affectionate, playful and energetic, and definitely making it a wonderful pet to have <P> 1 According to the popular online pet store Puppyfind.com, morkies range anywhere from $350 to $3,000, and most morkies that are available for sale here are aged 6 weeks to 4 months old. 2 Standard sized morkies occupy the bottom end of the price range while teacup morkies are at the higher end. A Morkie is a crossbreed between a Maltese and Yorkshire terrier; therefore it is not a pure breed. The dog inherits combined traits of both breeds making it very affectionate, playful and energetic, and definitely making it a wonderful pet to have <P> United States. Morkies, also known as Yorktese, are a cross between a Yorkshire Terrier and a Maltese. It can be difficult to determine the size of a Morkie due to the fact that the offspring can take on characteristics from each breed involved. Generally Morkie's range in height between 6-15 inches and weigh between 5-15 pounds. Typically, the coat of the Morkie is silky, straight and fine. Usually the hair is long and comes in a variety of colors such as black, tan, white, a combination of each, sable, etc. <P> 1 On average, a morkie can cost anywhere from $350 to as much as $3,000. 2 Like any dog breed, the price will come down to the age, its bloodline, the breeder, etc. 3 Morkies can be found up for adoption with prices ranging from $50 to $675.

what causes salmonella
|
<P> Diagnosing salmonellosis requires testing a clinical specimen (such as stool or blood) from an infected person to distinguish it from other illnesses that can cause diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. Once Salmonella is identified in the specimen, additional testing can be done to further characterize the Salmonella. <P> Causes and Symptoms of Salmonellosis. Salmonellosis is an infection with a bacteria called Salmonella, Salmonella live in the intestinal tracts of animals, including birds. Salmonella are usually transmitted to humans by eating foods contaminated with animal feces. Every year, approximately 40,000 cases of salmonellosis are reported in the United State <P> Salmonella infection, or salmonellosis, is a bacterial disease of the intestinal tract. Salmonella is a group of bacteria that cause typhoid fever, food poisoning, gastroenteritis, enteric fever and other illnesses. People become infected mostly through contaminated water or foods, especially meat, poultry and eggs. Salmonella is a gram-negative, rod-shaped bacilli that can cause diarrheal illness in humans. Put simply-Salmonella is a bacterium shaped like a rod with a cell wall composed of peptidoglycan. <P> Salmonellosis is an infection caused by Salmonella bacteria. Most people infected with Salmonella develop diarrhea, fever, vomiting, and abdominal cramps 12 to 72 hours after infection. <P> 1 Salmonella infection occurs from consumption of raw meats and eggs, contaminated dairy foods such as unpasteurized (raw) milk, or fruits and vegetables contaminated by food handlers. 2 A Salmonella infection causes gastrointestinal symptoms, including. 3 diarrhea, 4 abdominal pain, 5 nausea, 6 vomiting. <P> Salmonella food poisoning is the most common cause of foodborne illness. Salmonella food poisoning, also known as salmonellosis, is a bacterial infection caused by a variety of types of Salmonella bacteria. Salmonella food poisoning is spread from the feces of infected people or animals through food or beverages. Common foods contaminated with Salmonella bacteria include undercooked eggs and poultry. However, any food can become contaminated with Salmonella bacteria if it is handled by an infected person with unwashed hands or if the food comes in contact with other food that is contaminated. <P> Salmonella are a group of bacteria that can cause food poisoning. Food poisoning occurs when food or water contaminated with germs (microbes), poisons (toxins) or chemicals is eaten or drunk. Microbes include bacteria, viruses and parasites. <P> Causes. Salmonella bacteria live in the intestines of people, animals and birds. Most people are infected with salmonella by eating foods that have been contaminated by feces. Commonly infected foods include: 1 Raw meat, poultry and seafood. 2 Feces may get onto raw meat and poultry during the butchering process. 3 Seafood may be contaminated if harvested from contaminated water.

<P> Definition of AIDS for Kids. : a serious disease of the human immune system in which large numbers of the cells that help the body fight infection are destroyed by the HIV virus carried in the blood and other fluids of the body. <P> Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is an infectious disease caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). There are two variants of the HIV virus, HIV-1 and HIV-2, both of which ultimately cause AIDS. <P> HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is a virus that attacks the immune system, the body's natural defense system. Without a strong immune system, the body has trouble fighting off disease. Both the virus and the infection it causes are called HIV. White blood cells are an important part of the immune system. <P> Noun. 1. HIV-infection by the human immunodeficiency virus. viral infection, virus infection-infection by a virus that is pathogenic to humans. <P> : any of several retroviruses and especially HIV-1 that infect and destroy helper T cells of the immune system causing the marked reduction in their numbers that is diagnostic of AIDS—called also AIDS virus, human immunodeficiency virus. <P> n human immunodeficiency virus; one of two retrovirus strains, HIV-1, or HIV-2, that attacks the T cells of the immune system with debilitat-ing effects, producing a syndrome called acquired immune deficiency (AIDS). <P> Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a chronic, potentially life-threatening condition caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). By damaging your immune system, HIV interferes with your body's ability to fight the organisms that cause disease. HIV is a sexually transmitted infection. <P> : either of two retroviruses that infect and destroy helper T cells of the immune system causing the marked reduction in their numbers that is diagnostic of AIDS —called also AIDS virus, human immunodeficiency virus — compare HIV-1, HIV-2.

what is goiter
|
<P> The term “goiter” simply refers to the abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland. It is important to know that the presence of a goiter does not necessarily mean that the thyroid gland is malfunctioning. A goiter can occur in a gland that is producing too much hormone (hyperthyroidism), too little hormone (hypothyroidism), or the correct amount of hormone (euthyroidism). A goiter indicates there is a condition present which is causing the thyroid to grow abnormally. Therefore, Graves’ disease produces a goiter and hyperthyroidism. Multinodular goiters are another common cause of goiters. Individuals with this disorder have one or more nodules within the gland which cause thyroid enlargement. This is often detected as a nodular feeling gland on physical exam. <P> Introduction. A goitre (sometimes spelt goiter ) is an abnormal swelling of the thyroid gland that causes a lump to form in the neck. There can be many possible causes, including an under-or overactive thyroid gland, iodine deficiency and, rarely, thyroid cancer (see below). <P> In both cases, the primary symptom is an enlargement of the thyroid gland, a small gland in the front of the neck. While this article focuses on simple goiter, other causes of an enlarged thyroid gland are inflammatory conditions and nodules or tumors. Endemic goiter is very rare in the United States because of the use of iodized table salt; however, it occurs more frequently in other areas of the world. <P> Hyperthyroidism is also a cause of goiter-from an overactive thyroid gland, which produces too much thyroid hormone. This usually happens as a result of Graves' disease, also an autoimmune disorder in which the body's immunity turns on itself and attacks the thyroid gland, causing it to swell. 3. In rare cases, enlargement of the thyroid gland is caused by cancer, leading to a diagnosis of thyroid cancer rather than goiter. 3. The degree of swelling, and the severity of symptoms produced by the goiter depend on the individual. <P> Goitre which is associated with hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism may be present with symptoms of the underlying disorder. For hyperthyroidism, the most common symptoms are associated with adrenergic stimulation: tachycardia, palpitations, nervousness, tremor, increased blood pressure and heat intolerance. <P> Goiter. Goiter is an enlargement of the thyroid gland. The resulting bulge on the neck may become extremely large, but most simple goiters are brought under control before this happens. Occasionally a simple goiter may cause some difficulty in breathing and swallowing. PubMed Health Glossary. <P> Basics. Symptoms. Treatment. Another type, called toxic nodular goiter, results when one or more nodules, or adenomas, develop in the thyroid and trigger excess production of thyroid hormone. In short, a goiter is any enlargement of the thyroid gland. A goiter may be a temporary problem that will remedy itself over time without medical intervention, or a symptom of another, possibly severe, thyroid condition that requires medical attention. Enlargement could also occur with normal production of thyroid hormone, such as a nontoxic multinodular gland. Another type of thyroid growth, called a sporadic goiter, can form if your diet includes too many goiter-promoting foods, such as soybeans, rutabagas, cabbage, peaches, peanuts, and spinach. <P> Goiter is a swelling (hypertrophy) of a gland in the neck called the thyroid gland. 1-3 The thyroid gland is situated in front of the windpipe and is responsible for producing and secreting hormones that regulate growth and metabolism. In rare cases, enlargement of the thyroid gland is caused by cancer, leading to a diagnosis of thyroid cancer rather than goiter. 3. The degree of swelling, and the severity of symptoms produced by the goiter depend on the individual.

<P> Crispus Attucks (. 1723—March 5, 1770) may have been a Native American slave or freeman, merchant seaman and dockworker of Wampanoag and African descent. His father was an African-born slave and his mother a Native American. Attucks was of mixed African and Native American parentage and was descended from John Attucks, of Massachusetts who was hanged during King Philip's War. In 1750 William Brown, a slave-owner in Framingham, advertised for the return of a runaway slave named Crispus. <P> • J. Mark Miller, who has helped arrange for some needed repairs at Crispus Attucks and assisted with the food pantry program. The awards will be presented at Crispus Attucks Community Center’s 27th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Rita Smith-Wade-El, professor of psychology and African American Studies at Millersville University. Crispus Attucks Community Center has named the recipients of its Ruby M. Payne Cook and Essence of Humanity awards. <P> Crispus Attucks, the first martyr of the Boston Massacre in 1770, was probably born near Framingham, Massachusetts, a Christianized and multitribal town of Indians, whites, and blacks, in 1723. On November 27, 1770, the soldiers were tried in a Boston court for murder. During the trial it was reported that Attucks fell first with one bullet lodged in his right chest. He was shot by the British soldier William Warren. <P> 1 Neither the Crispus Attucks Association, the CEO, the board of directors, or employees warrant the accuracy or timeliness of any information provided. 2 Information may be updated or changed at any time without notice, and they are not responsible for information contained in any third party hyperlinks. A career is a lot like a colorful book of many chapters– there are characters, problems, successes, and ultimately there’s an end to each chapter. In August, Carol Heagy closed the chapter on her days as the Crispus Attucks Early Learning Center Director. <P> Born into slavery, Crispus Attucks was the son of Prince Yonger, a slave shipped to America from Africa, and Nancy Attucks, a Natick Indian. Little is known about Attucks' life, or his family, who resided in Framingham, Massachusetts, just outside Boston. What has been pieced together paints a picture of a young man who showed an early skill for buying and trading goods. He seemed unafraid of the consequences for escaping the bonds of slavery <P> He was the first casualty of the Boston massacre, in Boston, Massachusetts, and is widely considered to be the first American casualty in the American Revolutionary War. Attucks was of mixed African and Native American parentage and was descended from John Attucks, of Massachusetts who was hanged during King Philip's War. In 1750 William Brown, a slave-owner in Framingham, advertised for the return of a runaway slave named Crispus. <P> The Crispus Attucks National Alumni Association announced two winners of the Annual Russell Clemmons Book Award. Crispus Attucks graduating Senior’s, Zaria Strayhorn and Darrell R. Hutchison, Jr. each submitted such outstanding essays that the Book Award Committee voted to award each student a $500 scholarship. The Crispus Attucks National Alumni Association held a Meet and Greet for newly selected principal Lauren Franklin.

what cell produces pepsin
|
<P> One of the important products of gastric juice that is secreted by these cells is pepsin. Pepsin is the chief digestive enzyme in the stomach that breaks down proteins. You can think of pepsin as the 'chief' digestive enzyme in the stomach because it is produced by the chief cells. This can help you remember the term, but I should clarify that pepsin is the active protein-digesting enzyme. The chief cells actually produce pepsinogen (an inactive form of pepsin). Mucus that is produced by the epithelial cells of the stomach help protect the lining of the stomach from the corrosive hydrochloric acid and pepsin. If this protective lining fails, it can result in a peptic ulcer, which is a lesion of the mucosa. <P> Special cells in your stomach produce an inactive enzyme, pepsinogen, which changes into pepsin when it contacts the acid environment in your stomach. Pepsin breaks certain chemical bonds in proteins, producing smaller molecules called peptides and beginning protein digestion. Any enzyme that breaks down protein into its building blocks, amino acids, is called a protease, which is a general term. Your digestive tract produces a number of these enzymes, but the three main proteases are pepsin, trypsin and chymotrypsin. <P> 1 It is produced by the stomach cells called chief cells in its inactive form pepsinogen, which is a zymogen. 2 Pepsinogen is then activated by the stomach acid into its active form, pepsin. 3 Pepsin breaks down the protein in the food into smaller particles, such as peptide fragments and amino acids. There are four types of cells in the stomach: 1 Parietal cells: Produce hydrochloric acid and intrinsic factor. 2 Gastric chief cells: Produce pepsinogen. 3 Chief cells are mainly found in the body of stomach, which is the middle or superior anatomic portion of the stomach. <P> Pepsin is an enzyme whose zymogen (pepsinogen) is released by the chief cells in the stomach and that degrades food proteins into peptides. Pepsin is a digestive protease, a member of the aspartate protease family. Pepsin is one of three principal protein-degrading, or proteolytic, enzymes in the digestive system, the other two being chymotrypsin and trypsin. The three enzymes were among the first to be isolated in crystalline form. <P> Pepsin is the chief digestive enzyme in the stomach that breaks down proteins. We see that chief cells produce pepsinogen (an inactive form of pepsin). Pepsinogen is converted to pepsin when the parietal cells found within the gastric glands secrete hydrochloric acid. Mucus that is produced by the epithelial cells of the stomach help protect the lining of the stomach from the corrosive hydrochloric acid and pepsin. If this protective lining fails, it can result in a peptic ulcer, which is a lesion of the mucosa. <P> Pepsinogen is activated into the digestive enzyme pepsin when it comes in contact with acid produced by gastric parietal cells. This type of cell also secretes gastric lipase enzymes, which help digest triglycerides into free fatty acids and di-and mono-glycerides. <P> Pepsinogen becomes pepsin when activated by the stomach's Hydrochloric acid. This protein digest proteins, it could not be produced nor stored in the body's cells in its activ … e form because it would destroy the cell that made it. The cells protect themselves by producing and storing the enzyme in an inactivated form. <P> Noun. 1. pepsinogen-precursor of pepsin; stored in the stomach walls and converted to pepsin by hydrochloric acid in the stomach. enzyme-any of several complex proteins that are produced by cells and act as catalysts in specific biochemical reactions. 1 Facebook. 2 Twitter. <P> pepsinogen. a zymogen secreted by the chief cells of the gastric glands and converted into pepsin in the presence of gastric acid or of pepsin itself. plasma pepsinogen. high levels are indicative of extensive mucosal damage in the abomasum, as in ostertagiasis in ruminants. A proenzyme or zymogen formed and secreted by the chief cells of the gastric mucosa; the acidity of the gastric juice and pepsin itself remove 44 amino acyl residues from pepsinogen to form active pepsin. Synonym(s): propepsin.

what exactly is gene therapy
|
<P> Gene therapy is a rapidly growing field of medicine in which genes are introduced into the body to treat diseases. Genes control heredity and provide the basic biological code for determining a cell's specific functions. <P> Most commonly, gene therapy uses a vector, typically a virus, to deliver a gene to the cells where it's needed. Once it's inside, the cell's gene-reading machinery uses the information in the gene to build RNA and protein molecules. The proteins (or RNA) can then carry out their job in the cells. <P> Gene therapy is one of the most promising areas of research in the drive to save and restore vision for people with inherited retinal diseases. <P> Gene therapy is the addition of new genes to a patient's cells to replace missing or malfunctioning genes. Researchers typically do this using a virus to carry the genetic cargo into cells, because that's what viruses evolved to do with their own genetic material.. Gene therapy cures leukaemia in eight days. <P> Gene therapy could be a way to fix a genetic problem at its source. By adding a corrected copy of a defective gene, gene therapy promises to help diseased tissues and organs work properly. This approach is different from traditional drug-based approaches, which may treat symptoms but not the underlying genetic problems. <P> Gene therapy is an experimental technique that uses genes to treat or prevent disease. In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient’s cells instead of using drugs or surgery. Researchers are testing several approaches to gene therapy, including: Replacing a mutated gene that causes disease with a healthy copy of the gene. <P> Gene therapy is designed to introduce genetic material into cells to compensate for abnormal genes or to make a beneficial protein. If a mutated gene causes a necessary protein to be faulty or missing, gene therapy may be able to introduce a normal copy of the gene to restore the function of the protein.

what is fibroglandular tissue
|
<P> A. Breasts are composed of both fatty tissue and fibro-glandular tissue (see diagram). The degree of density is determined by the mammogram. The more fibro-glandular tissue, the denser the breast. Fatty tissue is basically black on the mammogram and fibro-glandular tissue is white. Breasts are divided into 4 categories based on the proportion of fatty and dense tissue on the mammogram: fatty, scattered fibroglandular, heterogeneously dense, and dense. <P> When this type of tissue is present in the breasts one or both of the breasts may be tender, and you may also feel lumps within the breast tissue. It is common for women between the ages of 30 and 50 to have fibroglandular tissue present in the breast. The condition is most often benign and non cancerous. Fibroglandular Tissue. Facts About Fibroglandular Tissue in Breasts. Fibroglandular tissue in breasts is a very common condition and is known as Fibrocystic Breast Disease. This disease is characterized by having fibroglandular tissue present in the breast. <P> Breast density is determined by the ratio of fibroglandular tissue to fat; the more fat, the less dense the breast. Since women with dense breasts are at greater risk for breast cancer, it's important to pay more attention to the breast's fibroglandular tissue than to its fat. My recent mammogram showed an area of increased density that was described as overlying fibroglandular tissue. I'm not sure what fibroglandular tissue is. Processing... <P> Your breast is made up of two main types of tissue: fat, and fibroglandular. We all know what fat is (unfortunately!); fibroglandular tissue in the breast is the milk glands and ducts, muscle, and connective tissue that make up the rest of the breast, giving it structure and purpose. My recent mammogram showed an area of increased density that was described as overlying fibroglandular tissue. I'm not sure what fibroglandular tissue is. Processing... <P> Dense breast tissue refers to the appearance of breast tissue on a mammogram. It's a normal and common finding. Breast tissue is composed of milk glands, milk ducts and supportive tissue (dense breast tissue), and fatty tissue (nondense breast tissue). Dense breast tissue: What it means to have dense breasts. Dense breast tissue is detected on a mammogram. Additional imaging tests are sometimes recommended for women with <P> To: babydoll572. Hi, Fibroglandular elements is what breast tissue is made of. It's a combination of glands and fibrous tissues and this is normal. It simply describes the tissue as lumpy,or dense. <P> Breasts are composed of fibroglandular tissue and fatty tissue. Dense breasts contain more fibroglandular tissue than fatty tissue. Approximately one-half of women have dense breasts. Women cannot tell that their breasts are dense simply by touching them. Breast density is revealed on a mammogram. Fatty tissue appears as a dark shade of grey on mammograms and fibroglandular tissue appears as a light shade of white. <P> Breasts are almost all fatty tissue. There are scattered areas of dense glandular and fibrous tissue.More of the breast is made of dense glandular and fibrous tissue. This can make it hard to see small tumors in or around the dense tissue.Breasts are extremely dense, which makes it hard to see tumors in the tissue. Breast Density and Your Mammogram Report Regular mammograms are the best way to find breast cancer early. But if your mammogram report said that you had dense breast tissue, you may be wondering what that means. <P> What Breast Density Means to You. Breast density is one of the strongest predictors of the failure of mammography to detect cancer. About half of women younger than 50 are dense, and 1/3 of women over 50 are dense. That’s a large number of women for whom mammography alone is not enough. Dense breasts have more fibrous and glandular tissue (which appear white on the films and can hide cancers, which also appear white), while breasts that are NOT dense have more fatty tissue (which appears grey and is easy to see through on the mammogram).

<P> It should be emphasized, however that the Necessary and Proper Clause authorizes Congress to enact laws that are appropriate and plainly adapted for carrying into execution Congress's enumerated powers; it does not authorize Congress to enact any law that Congress thinks is reasonable.. It authorizes what is necessary to render effectual the particular powers that are granted.. Congress thus can make laws about something otherwise outside the enumerated powers, insofar as those laws are necessary and proper to effectuate federal policy for something within an enumerated power. <P> An Act of Congress is a statute enacted by the United States Congress. It can either be a Public Law, relating to the general public, or a Private Law, relating to specific institutions or individuals. The term can be used in other countries with a legislature named Congress , such as the Congress of the Philippines. <P> Congress can borrow money on the credit of the U.S., they can make laws, and they have the power of calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union.

who originally sang take me out to the ballgame
|
<P> Take Me Out to the Ball Game was co-written in 1908 by lyricist Jack Norworth (who also wrote Shine on Harvest Moon) and composer Albert Von Tilzer. Inspired by a subway billboard, Norworth wrote the song without ever having actually been at a game. But no one sang it like the former voice of the Chicago Cubs, Harry Caray. During his 27 years in Chicago, Caray made the seventh-inning stretch almost as fun as the game (sometimes more fun) as he belted out Take Me Out to the Ball Game in his vibrato-filled, off-kilter voice. <P> Chicago Cubs baseball announcer and Baseball Hall of Famer Harry Caray conducts fans singing Take Me Out to the Ball Game in 1997. <P> Baseball song Take Me Out To the Ball Game by Edward Meeker September 1908 recording. Edison Record. The original 1908 lyrics. Increase Pitching Velocity - 3X Pitching: http://1772a4wksx1ydlc1dtxz12hk01.hop... http://www.Myzeidi.com. An instant hit in 1908, and still running strong after one hundred years. <P> The song was always lead by Cub’s announcer Harry Caray. While he began singing “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” originally for the Chicago White Sox in the 1970s, he moved on to Wrigley Field and sang it from 1982 until 1997. After his death in 1998, celebrities began taking their turns. And that’s where our list begins. <P> Of the several hundred songs written for or about the National Game, 'Take Me Out To The Ball Game' looms above them all -- like a Stan Musial coming to bat in the ninth inning, Harold Rosenthal wrote in the March 16, 1958, issue of The Sporting News. Jack Norworth, a songwriter and Vaudeville performer, saw that sign while riding a New York subway in 1908. Although not a baseball fan himself at the time, he saw the meaning in a single game for New York Giants fans and for so many others. Song History. Take me out to the ballgame, <P> Although more than 300 other baseball songs have been composed in the last 50 years, 'Take Me Out To The Ball Game' has withstood all the challenges and remains the musical classic of our national sport, Clyde Snyder wrote that year in the Los Angeles Times.

When the score was just two to two, Katie Casey knew what to do, Just to cheer up the boys she knew, She made the gang sing this song: Take me out to the ball game, Take me out with the crowd. Buy me some peanuts and cracker jack, I don't care if I never get back, Let me root, root, root for the home team, If they don't win it's a shame. For it's one, two, three strikes, you're out, At the old ball game.. Take Me Out to the Ball Game. In 1858, the first known baseball song was written, The Base Ball Polka!. It was not quite as famous as Jack Norworth's 1908 classic, Take Me Out to the Ball Game, which was written on some scrap paper on a train ride to Manhattan, New York. <P> The first verse of the 1927 version is sung by Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra at the start of the MGM musical film, Take Me Out to the Ball Game (1949), a movie that also features a song about the famous and fictitious double play combination, O'Brien to Ryan to Goldberg.

what is square feet
|
<P> The foot squared, also called the square foot, is the standard unit of area in the English foot-pound-second (fps) system. The symbol for foot or feet squared is ft 2. Less formally, square foot or feet is sometimes abbreviated sq ft. <P> The square foot (plural square feet; abbreviated ft 2 or sq ft) is an imperial unit and U.S. customary unit (non-SI, non-metric) of area, used mainly in the United States and partially in Canada, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Bangladesh, India and Pakistan. It is defined as the area of a square with sides of 1 foot. <P> Measure the length and width of the floor in a square or rectangular room, and multiply the figures together to get the floor area in square feet. For example, in a room that is 10 feet wide and 18 feet long, the area would be 10 multiplied by 18 to obtain 180 <P> Definition of Square Footage. Square footage is a measurement of area, and area is the measurement of any two-dimensional space contained within a set of lines. Think of it in the sense of a dance floor. Take a moment to imagine a dance floor that is 20 feet by 20 feet (6.09 meters by 6.09 meters). <P> In a typical square space, the length is simply multiplied with the width to get the total square footage of the area. If for example a home measures 200 feet in length and 100 feet in width, the square foot would result to 20,000. <P> *Square Footage is also known as (a.k.a) square feet, square ft, SqFt, Sq.Ft., sq.ft., ft2 & ft 2. **This Calculator also calculates square inches, total height in feet, total height in inches, total length in feet and total length in inches. <P> If you literally put four feet and form a square, the space or area inside the square is called the “square foot”. In mathematical terms, a square foot refers to the area of the square with each side measuring 1 foot in length. <P> 1 square foot = approximately 0.000022959 acres. 1 acre = 43,560 square feet. To calculate the area of a room in square feet, measure the length and width of the room in feet, then multiply these figures together to give an area in ft². For example, a room measuring 12 ft x 15 ft would be described as having an area of 180 ft² (12 x 15 = 180).

<P> A layman would reject the order because he would think that the order is leading to loss of $100 per unit assuming that the total cost per unit is $800 (fixed cost of $300,000/1,000 and variable cost of $500 as compared to revenue of $700). Effectively, the additional cost which Company A would have to incur is the variable cost of $500 per unit. Hence, the order will yield $200 per unit ($700 minus $500 of variable cost). <P> If Safety decides to make the parts under these conditions, the total relevant costs will be: A) $127,500 B) $102,500 C) $107,500 D) $122,500. <P> Example. Company A manufactures bicycles. It can produce 1,000 units in a month for a fixed cost of $300,000 and variable cost of $500 per unit. Its current demand is 600 units which it sells at $1,000 per unit. It is approached by Company B for an order of 200 units at $700 per unit. Effectively, the additional cost which Company A would have to incur is the variable cost of $500 per unit. Hence, the order will yield $200 per unit ($700 minus $500 of variable cost). <P> 500 DLHs × $3.00 per DLH 1,500. Total relevant cost of the special order $23,200. 2.

<P> MSM, which stands for methylsulfonylmethane, is naturally found in healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables, and is thought to help form connective tissue in the body and may possibly reduce arthritis pain. Some studies have supported the claim that MSM can lower inflammation, Wei notes, but the effects are modest. <P> Vitamin D got its nickname, the sunshine vitamin, because sun exposure helps promote vitamin D production in the body. This essential nutrient is also found naturally in a few foods such as oily fish (mackerel, salmon) and is used to fortify milk, baby formula, cereal, and juice. <P> It is thus, one of the best vitamins for arthritis. The best sources of Vitamin E are raw vegetables and fruits like cabbage, Brussels sprouts, asparagus and others. You can also try including nuts, fish oil and soya bean oil. <P> Best Vitamins for Arthritis. According to the Association of Medical Practitioners in the US, a major swelling in a joint coupled with inability to move, irritation, and painful spasm refer to the joint condition called arthritis, typically occurring in aged people. <P> Vitamin D. Along with calcium, Vitamin D are most important vitamins for arthritis that can aid you in your fight against joint mobility problems. They not only cement collagen and strengthen bones, but also lead to proper lubrication and mobility of joints. <P> While the vitamin C benefits are clear, the amount of Vitamin C for people with different kinds of arthritis is questionable. Learn about recent studies on vitamin C amounts and effects. <P> 1 Antioxidants protect cells from free radicals which damage cells. 2 Vitamin E is important for healthy immune function. 3 Vitamin E is found in avocados, egg yolk, nuts, wheat germ, whole grains, and peanut butter. 4 Because vitamin E is stored in the body large doses can lead to toxicity. <P> 5 Replies. The most commonly deficient vitamins for people dealing with rheumatoid arthritis are vitamin C, vitamin B6, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin D, vitamin B12 and vitamin E. It is preferable to get these vitamins in your diet however if that is not possible then supplements can be used.

what is a collegiate professional degree
|
<P> Frequently, the professional degree is a master’s level or doctorate degree. There are a few professional degrees that require only bachelor’s degree training, and even a couple that require only an Associate of Arts or Sciences(A.A. or A.S.) degree, essentially two years in college. Typically, most professional degrees will require a fairly extensive education. <P> Just like college, graduate and professional schools have specific course requirements. However, there is more to earning a Master’s Degree or Ph.D. than passing all of your classes. In most graduate schools, students are required to plan and conduct original research. <P> Other types of work require a professional degree that is earned by attending a college and obtaining a four-year degree. For example, people who wish to become licensed accountants, work as researchers in most of the sciences, become registered nurses or physicians assistants must all hold bachelor’s degrees. <P> There is such a thing as a Certificate, which is for students who want to specialize in a specific area of study in addition to having a Bachelors or Masters degree. Within each degree, except doctoral, there are Arts degrees and Science degrees i.e. Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Master of Science (M.S.). <P> There are two broad categories of undergraduate college degrees: associate's degrees and bachelor's degrees. The average amount of time it takes to earn a degree-also called time to degree-is two years for an associate's degree and four years for a bachelor's degree. <P> The A.A. and A.S. degrees are most suited to transfer to a 4-year college or university. Associate's degree programs are also very popular for students who are seeking more direct professional training or credentials. The most common type of vocational associate's degree is the Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.). <P> A degree-completion program is one that allows adults to transfer their completed college credits to obtain their bachelor's degree. Schools often require a minimum number of transferable credits and an associate's degree in a technical or professional field. <P> 10 hilariously insightful foreign words. A professional degree is generally a college degree that allows you to work in a certain profession. There are some types of employment that are not open to people without a professional degree.

how much does it cost to use dryer
|
<P> An average is about 7 cents/KW-Hr or 0.007cents for one watt for one hour. Hair dryers draw at least 1000 watts and some go even higher (how can the poor little hairs take it !). 1000 watts (or 1 KW) is a good average. Therefore a typical hair dryer of 1000 Watts will cost about 7 cents to run for one hour. The cost of a bottle of Coke will run the dryer for about 8 hours. In Hawaii the cost is 12 cents, and for a jumbo hair dryer of 1500 watts the cost is 18 cents <P> In the U.S. it costs approximately $.45 to dry a load of laundry in an electric dryer*. For an exact calculation of how much it costs to run your dryer, use this formula: (dryer's wattage x length of load in hours)/1000 = kilowatt hours (kwh) used. kilowatt hours x cost per kwh = cost per load. cost per load x # of loads per month = cost per month. cost per month x 12 = cost per year. <P> The “Saving Electricity” website reports that the average dryer uses 3.3 kilowatt hours of energy and estimates an average of 11 cents per kilowatt hour. A small load of clothes takes about 45 minutes in the dryer, so the cost of that load is $0.36. The dryers in my building just went up to $2.00 for 60 minutes (which doesn’t get a large load fully dry). I use drying racks for 3 out of 4 loads, so I save about $12-16 a month. Plus, my clothes retain their shape and colour so much better. <P> A clothes dryer accounts for a whopping 12% of electricity use in a typical household. (source) And clothes drying is one of the easiest places to save energy, because you can erase 100% of the cost by simply hanging your clothes up to dry. At a sample rate of $0.15/kWh and 7.5 loads per week, we're talking a savings of $196 per year by line-drying instead of using an electric dryer. That's hefty. <P> For water, we'll figure 40 gallons for a standard top-loading U.S. washer, and the national average of $5.44 per thousand gallons, which gives us $0.22 per load for water. For electricity to power the washer, we'll figure 0.256 kWh times a sample cost of 15 /kWh, which gives us $0.04 for electricity. <P> A typical dryer uses between approximately 11,000 BTUs per hour because the gas cycles on and off during the drying time. One therm equals 100,000 BTUs, which means a dryer uses .11 therm per hour. The gas costs roughly $.11 for an hour. Electricity to power the drum uses .15 per kilowatt hour, resulting in a cost of $.12 per hour to run the dryer. <P> This means that it costs about $0.70 every morning to run your dryer for an hour. One month would run your electric bill up $21. Of course there are alternatives to dryers, but they aren’t as convenient. For example, a good drying rack can be picked up at many local retailers for between $25 and $50. A drying rack is one alternative. The dryer is one of the higher users of electricity in a home. It can consume up to about 5,000 watts, but let’s say it uses only about 3,500 watts on “medium.”. 1 3,500 watts / 1,000 watts = 3.5 kilowatts (3 kW). 2 3.5 kW X 1 hour = 3.5 kWh. 3 One kWh costs about $0.20. 4 $0.20 X 3.5 kW = $0.7 <P> 1 On average, a gas dryer can cost $250 to $800 for a higher end model. 2 Generally, the more gadgets you want, as well as the more space you want inside of the dryer, the more you are going to have to pay. 3 A GE gas dryer with a 6 cubic feet capacity with basic features can run from $400 to $500.

what is poke in hawaii
|
<P> by Lauren Cosgrave. Poke (pronounced po-kay) is a Hawaiian specialty that I wish was available on the mainland. The tremendous amount of high quality ahi that is available in Hawaii, even in the supermarkets, can’t be compared to anywhere else. <P> Ahi poke is a traditional Hawaiian food prepared with raw marinated ahi tuna. It is a traditional part of a plate lunch. Of the various styles of Hawaiian poke, ahi poke is likely the most popular one in Hawaii. <P> Mention regional foods to Hawaiians, and people think of poke. It is considered a local food or local grind - comfort food to the Hawaiians. Normally local food is not the cuisine that is served in upscale hotels and restaurants of Hawaii, but poke has crossed such boundaries. Poke is still evolving in the Hawaiian Islands. It was not until the 1970s that the recipes for poke started appearing in cookbooks. In September of each year, Sam Choy, one of Hawaii's most famous chefs, hosts an annual 3-day poke festival. <P> (Redirected from Poke (Hawaii)). Poke with ahi poke (yellow-fin tuna poke) made with green onions, chili peppers, sea salt, soy sauce, sesame oil, roasted kukui nut (candlenut), and limukohu seaweed, shown here served on a bed of red cabbage. Poke /poʊˈkeɪ/ is a raw salad served as an appetizer in Hawaiian cuisine. Pokē is the Hawaiian verb for section or to slice or cut. Ahi poke is made with yellowfin tuna <P> 5 5. Excellent recipe! It reminds me of the poke we had in Hawaii on the Big Island. If you don't like your food too salty, though, I would eliminate the salt and let the soy sauce do the work. I also found that previously frozen ahi tuna works just as well as the fresh kind, provided you buy sashimi grade. <P> Poke (pronounced POH-kay) is served in most Hawaiian homes and restaurants as a side dish, and no gathering in Hawaii would be complete without a few bowls of poke. In Hawaiian, poke means cut piece or small piece.. Poke is still evolving in the Hawaiian Islands. It was not until the 1970s that the recipes for poke started appearing in cookbooks. In September of each year, Sam Choy, one of Hawaii's most famous chefs, hosts an annual 3-day poke festival. <P> According to the food historian Rachel Laudan, the present form of poke became popular around the 1970s. It used skinned, deboned, and filleted raw fish served with wasabi and soy sauce. This form of poke is still common in the Hawaiian islands. Poke /poʊˈkeɪ/ is a raw salad served as an appetizer in Hawaiian cuisine. Pokē is the Hawaiian verb for section or to slice or cut. Ahi poke is made with yellowfin tuna <P> Hawaiian Poke History: Poke (pronounced POH-kay) is served in most Hawaiian homes and restaurants as a side dish, and no gathering in Hawaii would be complete without a few bowls of poke. In Hawaiian, poke means cut piece or small piece.. Poke is bite-size pieces of raw fish doused in seasonings. Poke is still evolving in the Hawaiian Islands. It was not until the 1970s that the recipes for poke started appearing in cookbooks. In September of each year, Sam Choy, one of Hawaii's most famous chefs, hosts an annual 3-day poke festival. <P> While this traditional style of poke is still very popular and widely available across Hawaii, poke has evolved to include tasty ingredients such as avocado, cucumber, onions, tomatoes, soy sauce or shoyu, wasabi, oyster sauce, chili pepper, spicy mayonnaise, kimchi and more. Our favorite poke is from Foodland Hawaii, which has been voted Hawaii's Best Grocery Store and Hawaii's Best Poke for the last 2 years by the readers of Honolulu Star Advertiser. Be sure to check out Foodland's amazing selection of great tasting poke and don't be hesitant to ask for samples before you buy!

how long to plant grass seed after roundup
|
<P> How long to wait to plant after using Roundup® Weed & Grass Killer products: After 24 hours: flowers, trees, shrubs. After 3 days: lawn grasses, herbs, vegetables or fruits. After 7 days: treated lawn areas may be reseeded. 1 Skip one mowing before spraying. <P> Best Answer: You should wait 7 days before you mow or till to let the round-up go to the roots and kill the weeds. Some things can be planted the next day but lawn grasses may be planted 7 days after application. <P> Yes you can. You would need to wait about 7 days after using the roundup to plant seed. If you have roundup extended control, you will have to wait 4 months. If you have used Roundup Poison Ivy Plus Tough Brush Killer, wait 6-8 weeks. <P> Using Roundup. Glyphosate is a systemic herbicide absorbed through plant leaves and circulated through the plant's vascular system down to its roots. According to its manufacturer, Roundup does not leech into soil from plant roots and chemical washed into the soil does not persist for more than 24 to 48 hours. Because glyphosate is a non-selective herbicide, users must take care to avoid overspraying target plants. <P> -Ron. According to Scotts, the manufacturer of Roundup (glyphosate) weed killer, its safe to plant ornamental flowers, shrubs, and trees the next day; and they say you can plant grasses and edible plants and trees after three days. <P> Overview. Killing your old grass with Roundup can be an effective way to prepare your planting area for a new lawn. After using Roundup, you can skip tilling your lawn and seed directly into the old grass. Your new seed can use the old grass as mulch to prevent the seeds from washing away in rain. Also, by not tilling your planting area, you won't be bringing any weed seeds to the surface <P> When Roundup is applied in fall, wait until the following spring to seed warm-season grasses. When planting cool-season grass after summer use of Roundup, wait until the weather cools in October before planting. According to its manufacturer, Roundup does not leech into soil from plant roots and chemical washed into the soil does not persist for more than 24 to 48 hours. Because glyphosate is a non-selective herbicide, users must take care to avoid overspraying target plants. <P> If you depend on label recommendations for planting after use, you must follow the directions for use. Some Roundup products contain a pre-emergent herbicide, diquat, in addition to glyphosate and will retard growth of any seed for up to four months, making immediate re-seeding impossible. According to its manufacturer, Roundup does not leech into soil from plant roots and chemical washed into the soil does not persist for more than 24 to 48 hours. Because glyphosate is a non-selective herbicide, users must take care to avoid overspraying target plants. <P> The active ingredient in Roundup is glyphosate. After the first application of Roundup, keep area moist for two weeks to encourage any lingering weed seeds to sprout and apply another application of Roundup. After another two weeks, the area should be safe to add seed for the new lawn. Overview. Most lawn specialists and horticulturalists recommend clearing the existing vegetation from an area where a new lawn is to be planted by spraying Roundup or another brand of non-selective herbicide that does not linger in the landscape. <P> Trees and shrubs can be planted in this time frame, as well as flowers whose blossoms you don't plan to eat. Roundup Ready-To-Use Weed and Grass Killer III and Roundup Weed and Grass Killer Concentrate Plus are two formulas that fall into this category. Be sure to wait the entire 24 hours before replanting. You should wait a minimum of three days, from the time of the last treatment, with either of the products, to plant edible plants like vegetables and herbs or fruit-bearing plants.

psat scores for sophomores
|
<P> The PSAT Score Report provides a score for each section, as well as a total exam score that is the sum of all three sections with a maximum score of 240. Most parents find it helpful to consider their child’s PSAT scores in the context of national averages for students taking the PSAT at the same grade level. However, sophomores will have the option of taking the current version of the SAT until January 2016, so, for sophomores, 2014 PSAT scores will provide some indication as to which SAT version would best benefit your child. <P> PSAT scores will arrive for anxious high school students this week. These scores mark the time when sophomores and juniors can begin to target colleges that are in range. Realistically, there are only 5 months left for juniors to visit colleges before campuses empty out in the first week of May. Most students should begin SAT prep in the fall or winter of their junior year, and spend 10-12 weeks studying before they take the test. However, some students with lower scores or those aiming for highly competitive colleges, may want to begin prep as early as sophomore year. <P> On this list of scores and percentiles for sophomores who took the PSAT in 2014, note that there are a range of scores that made it into the 99%. This means you don't have to have a perfect score to achieve the highest percentile. Prep for the Junior Year PSAT Once you find out the results of your sophomore year PSAT, you can set goals for the junior year PSAT. Based on how much time you have to prep, you can set your target scores. With serious prep, you could improve by hundreds of points. <P> Good PSAT Scores for Sophomores Average scores (scores in the 50th percentile) are around 42 in each section, or about 126 total. A good score would be higher than average. This chart shows estimates for the minimum section and composite scores you would need to make it in the 70th, 80th, 90th, and 99th percentiles. Prep for the Junior Year PSAT Once you find out the results of your sophomore year PSAT, you can set goals for the junior year PSAT. Based on how much time you have to prep, you can set your target scores. With serious prep, you could improve by hundreds of points. <P> Sophomore PSAT means nothing. Study for the PSAT for junior year if you think you have a shot a NMSF, and that will also help you with SAT prep as well. And study for the SAT. This year's score means nothing at all. It is a chance for you to see the format of the test and get a feeling for what it is like. honestly, i'm not really sure how the psat scores match up. i went from 205 to 210 -.- . but i got a 2250 sat after taking a couple practice tests. You could probably improve your score by using books recommended in the sat forum. i hear a vocab book called Direct Hits is good for critical reading. <P> You’ll see a benchmark for each section of the PSAT/NMSQT and PSAT 10. Benchmarks are the scores that represent college readiness. In other words, if you score at or above the benchmark, you’re on track to be ready for college when you graduate high school. Find out how your PSAT/NMSQT and PSAT 10 scores are calculated and what those scores mean. Because there’s no penalty for guessing, your raw score is the number of questions you answered correctly. <P> Of those noting racial/ethnic background, 37.2% of sophomores indicated a category other than “white.” Sophomore average scores for 2002 (with comparison to 2001 data): Verbal: 44.4 (0.7 decrease) Math: 45.5 (no change) Writing Skills: 45.9 (0.3 decrease). 54.4% of sophomores who took the PSAT/NMSQT were female. Of those noting racial/ethnic background, 37.2% of sophomores indicated a category other than “white.”. Sophomore average scores for 2002 (with comparison to 2001 data): <P> If National Merit is in your sights, you want to aim for a score of around 1400 on the new PSAT. This score varies somewhat by state. Check out the cut-off scores by state here, as well as all the other criteria you must meet to quality for National Merit. Prep for the Junior Year PSAT Once you find out the results of your sophomore year PSAT, you can set goals for the junior year PSAT. Based on how much time you have to prep, you can set your target scores. With serious prep, you could improve by hundreds of points. <P> A PSAT score report contains a separate score for each of the three section types (Critical Reading, Math, and Writing Skills) on a scale from 20 to 80. The score report also contains the test-taker’s Selection Index, which is the sum of the scaled scores for each of the three section types.

what is pernicious anemia symptoms
|
<P> Pernicious anemia: Pernicious anemia is a blood disorder where the body is unable to use it properly use Vitamin B12 to make red blood cells. More detailed information about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of Pernicious anemia is available below. Pernicious anemia is also called vitamin B12 deficiency anemia, and is the most common form of a variety of types of vitamin deficiency anemias. Pernicious anemia can be serious, even life-threatening, if untreated. Vitamin B12 is crucial to the process of producing red blood cells in the body. <P> A lack of vitamin B12 (vitamin B12 deficiency) causes the signs and symptoms of pernicious anemia. Without enough vitamin B12, your body can't make enough healthy red blood cells, which causes anemia. Some of the signs and symptoms of pernicious anemia apply to all types of anemia. Other signs and symptoms are specific to a lack of vitamin B12. These symptoms include nausea (feeling sick to your stomach) and vomiting, heartburn, abdominal bloating and gas, constipation or diarrhea, loss of appetite, and weight loss. An enlarged liver is another symptom. A smooth, thick, red tongue also is a sign of vitamin B12 deficiency and <P> Overview. Pernicious anemia is a type of anemia. The term anemia usually refers to a condition in which the blood has a lower than normal number of red blood cells. In pernicious anemia, the body can't make enough healthy red blood cells because it doesn't have enough vitamin B12. Pernicious anemia (per-NISH-us uh-NEE-me-uh) is a condition in which the body can't make enough healthy red blood cells because it doesn't have enough vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 is a nutrient found in some foods. The body needs this nutrient to make healthy red blood cells and to keep its nervous system working properly. <P> The symptoms of pernicious anemia can vary amongst individuals, depending on the cause, the severity of anemia, and other factors. Direct symptoms of pernicious anemia are due to a lack of red blood cells, which are vital to carrying oxygen to the cells of the body. Symptoms can include pale skin, shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, headache, cold hands and feet, heart palpitations, and chest pain. <P> Historically, pernicious anemia (PA) was detected only after it caused symptoms and the anemia was well established, i.e., liver stores of B 12 had been depleted. The pernicious aspect of the disease – prior to the discovery of treatment – was its fatal prognosis, similar to leukemia at that time. While the term 'pernicious anemia' is sometimes also incorrectly used to indicate megaloblastic anemia due to any cause of B 12 deficiency, its proper usage refers to that caused by atrophic gastritis, parietal cell loss, and lack of intrinsic factor only. <P> Pernicious anemia is a type of vitamin B12 anemia. The body needs vitamin B12 to make red blood cells. You get this vitamin from eating foods such as meat, poultry, shellfish, eggs, and dairy products. A special protein, called intrinsic factor, helps your intestines absorb vitamin B12. <P> Pernicious anaemia is a condition in which the body's immune system attacks stomach cells that produce a protein vital for the absorption of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12, which is found naturally in meat, fish and dairy products, is absorbed into the body through the stomach. <P> Direct symptoms of pernicious anemia are due to a lack of red blood cells, which are vital to carrying oxygen to the cells of the body. Symptoms can include pale skin, shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, headache, cold hands and feet, ... more symptoms ». Pernicious anemia is also called vitamin B12 deficiency anemia, and is the most common form of a variety of types of vitamin deficiency anemias. Pernicious anemia can be serious, even life-threatening, if untreated. Vitamin B12 is crucial to the process of producing red blood cells in the body. <P> Pernicious Anemia. Pernicious anemia (PA) is an autoimmune disorder in which the body fails to make enough healthy red blood cells (RBCs). The body requires vitamin B-12 and a type of protein called intrinsic factor (IF) to make red blood cells. Vitamin B-12, or cobalamin, is found in certain foods and medications. <P> A lack of vitamin B12 (vitamin B12 deficiency) causes the signs and symptoms of pernicious anemia.

Just about anyone can find a use for spreadsheets. See related questions for some ideas how you can use a spreadsheet. All major companies and a lot of smaller ones do use spreadsheets. It is useful in budgets, accounting, graphing and a lot of clerical work. <P> Not only can spreadsheets perform basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, they also make available many financial, scientific and statistical mathematical functions as well. In addition, you can print your work or save it as a spreadsheet or workbook file for reference or later use. Early users of software such as VisiCalc, MultiPlan and Lotus 123 recognized the power of spreadsheets to create business simulations, models or what if scenarios. <P> Model Information. The main purpose of a spreadsheet is storage and modeling of a data set. Whatever business sector you are in, you will likely have a store of information that is potentially of great value to you. Spreadsheets model financial, statistical and any other numerical data within systems of rows and columns. A spreadsheet can give you an insight into how your business is performing. Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images. Many companies use spreadsheets on a daily basis. Spreadsheets are designed to store information but in reality they do a lot more than that. <P> A spreadsheet is an interactive computer application program for organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. Spreadsheets developed as computerized simulations of paper accounting worksheets. The program operates on data represented as cells of an array, organized in rows and columns. <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. People use spreadsheets to use for some important tables of registrars to create. People use spreadsheets because it is a good way to chart information and the software will work out the calculation for you if you use the correct formula. Accountants use spreadsheets to keep track of the amounts spent and received. <P> Why do so many of us use spreadsheets for databases? A spreadsheet has serious drawbacks when used for data storage, is cumbersome to retrieve data from any but the most simplistic queries, offers little or no data validation and little or no protection against data corruption from well-meaning but poorly trained users. <P> Spreadsheets are useful and powerful number-crunching and data-analysis tools. Comstock Images/Comstock/Getty Images. Much of the early success of consumer electronics giant Apple Inc. was due to the demand of businesses for the Apple II home computer to run the VisiCalc spreadsheet software application. Early users of software such as VisiCalc, MultiPlan and Lotus 123 recognized the power of spreadsheets to create business simulations, models or what if scenarios. <P> **Spreadsheets really get there power from the use of mathematical formulas and these can be used in a cascading manner to calculate values in complex spreadsheets. For example to add up long columns of figures and then to deduct tax off the end result i.e. such as a phone bill for example. I'm doing a College assignment and I would like some help with this, if anybody knows why people use spreadsheets the help would be appriciated, thanks. Follow.

how long after i file can the IRS audit you
|
<P> According to the IRS, the agency attempts to audit tax returns as soon as possible after they are filed. Traditionally, most audits take place within two years of filing. For example, if you get an audit notice in 2014, it will most likely be for a tax return submitted in 2012 or 2013. <P> Audit Time Limitation. Most taxpayers who file a complete and accurate tax return before the filing deadline can be audited by the IRS within three years of the filing deadline. For example, even if you file your tax return before the April 15 deadline, the three-year period doesn't begin until April 15. <P> If you filed your personal tax return on time, and if your return was accurate, the IRS has three years from the due date to initiate an audit. The due date of a personal return is generally April 15 of the following year, unless that date falls on a weekend or holiday. <P> While it is unwelcome news for most, the truth is that the IRS typically has up to three years to select a return to audit. However, if the agency suspects you of committing fraud to prevent paying owed taxes or you did not file a return, there is no time limit and you could receive an audit notice after three years. According to the IRS, most audit notifications occur within the first two years after filing. <P> The real question is what is the assessment statute expiration date or ASED. First, if you file your tax return on or before April 15th, the IRS has three years (normally) from April 15th to audit you. <P> The IRS tries to audit tax returns as soon as possible after they are filed. Accordingly most audits will be of returns filed within the last two years. If an audit is not resolved, you may be asked to extend the statute of limitations for assessment tax. The statute of limitations limits the time allowed to assess additional tax. The statute of limitations is generally three years after a return is due or was filed, whichever is later.

what is a neuron that has neurotransmitter receptors?
|
<P> There are two types of neurotransmitter receptors: ligand-gated receptors or ionotropic receptors and G protein-coupled receptors or metabotropic receptors. Ligand-gated receptors can be excited by neurotransmitters (ligands) like glutamate and aspartate. In postsynaptic cells, neurotransmitter receptors receive signals that trigger an electrical signal, by regulating the activity of ion channels. The binding of neurotransmitters to specific receptors can change the membrane potential of a neuron <P> [v]. Glutamate, a neurotransmitter known for exciting neurons, is very important in helping to propagate neural signals in the brain. But research has linked its receptors to a variety of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s diseases. <P> Neurotransmitters. A Neuron is a specialized nerve cell that receives, processes, and transmits information to other cells in the body. We have a fixed number of neurons, which means they do not regenerate. <P> Information comes into the neuron through the Dendrites from other neurons. It then continues to the Cell Body – (soma) which is the main part of the neuron, which contains the nucleus and maintains the life sustaining functions of the neuron. The soma processes information and then passes it along the Axon. A Neuron is a specialized nerve cell that receives, processes, and transmits information to other cells in the body. We have a fixed number of neurons, which means they do not regenerate. <P> The neuron that is acted upon by the chemical is termed the postsynaptic neuron. The neurotransmitter molecules released from the presynaptic vesicles traverse the synaptic gap and bind to proteins, termed neurotransmitter receptors, on the surface membrane of the postsynaptic neuron. GABA B receptors also are found on presynaptic terminals of neurons in many brain regions (Bowery et al. 1990). When activated, these receptors inhibit neurotransmitter release via mechanisms that involve inhibition of voltage-gated calcium channels whose function is necessary for proper release. <P> Communication of information between neurons is accomplished by movement of chemicals across a small gap called the synapse. Chemicals, called neurotransmitters, are released from one neuron at the presynaptic nerve terminal. Dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine are a group of neurotransmitters called catecholamines. Norepinephrine is also called noradrenalin and epinephrine is also called adrenalin. Each of these neurotransmitters is produced in a step-by-step fashion by a different enzyme. <P> A neurotransmitter receptor (also known as a neuroreceptor) is a membrane receptor protein that is activated by a neurotransmitter. In postsynaptic cells, neurotransmitter receptors receive signals that trigger an electrical signal, by regulating the activity of ion channels. The binding of neurotransmitters to specific receptors can change the membrane potential of a neuron <P> The first is neuron. 1 A neuron is another name for a nerve cell. 2 Nerve cells float in fluid. 3 Each neuron has an axon — a thread-like part of the cell that sends signals from the cell body, and a dendrite—a part of the cell that receives signals from other neurons. 1 The CNS transmits signals to the rest of the body using chemical messengers called neurotransmitters. 2 These neurotransmitters carry a message from a neuron to receptors on another neuron. 3 The action of the neurotransmitters on the receptors has been likened to a key being inserted in a lock. <P> In addition to being found in neuron cells, neurotransmitter receptors are also found in various immune and muscle tissues. Many neurotransmitter receptors are categorized as a serpentine receptor or G protein-coupled receptor because they span the cell membrane not once, but seven times. In postsynaptic cells, neurotransmitter receptors receive signals that trigger an electrical signal, by regulating the activity of ion channels.

what does anatomic pathology mean is used in an autopsy
|
<P> Anatomical pathology (Commonwealth) or Anatomic pathology (U.S.) is a medical specialty that is concerned with the diagnosis of disease based on the macroscopic, microscopic, biochemical, immunologic and molecular examination of organs and tissues. Molecular pathology is an emerging discipline within anatomical and clinical pathology that is focused on the use of nucleic acid-based techniques such as in-situ hybridization, reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, and nucleic acid microarrays for specialized studies of disease in tissues and cells. <P> The second is to commence training in anatomical pathology, and complete an initial anatomical pathology examination, which takes a minimum of three years; then go on to train solely in forensic pathology and complete a forensic pathology examination, which takes a minimum of two years. Becoming an anatomic pathologist in the United States requires completing a residency in anatomic pathology, which is on-the-job training one must perform upon completing medical school before one may practice unsupervised. <P> An autopsy is a medical examination of a dead person’s body. It is performed by a physician specially trained in such procedures. Like many medical procedures, the physician has one or more trained technicians to assist. The physician who performs an autopsy is an anatomic pathologist. The death certificate is not a complete document until the funeral director files it with the Registrar of Vital Statistics in the town in which the person has died (called the town of death) . The original document stays in the registrar’s office forever. <P> Autopsy. An autopsy, also known as a post-mortem examination consists of a thorough examination of a corpse to determine the cause and manner of death and to evaluate any disease or injury that may be present. It is usually performed by a specialized medical doctor called a Pathologist. It is of the utmost importance that an autopsy performed following a controversial death be thorough in scope. The documentation and recording of the autopsy findings should be equally thorough so as to permit meaningful use of the autopsy results (see annex II). <P> 10 most extreme places on Earth. Anatomic pathology, also known as anatomical pathology, is a branch of the medical field which involves the examination of anatomical specimens to learn more about the processes of disease and death. One of the more unique specialties within the field of anatomic pathology is autopsy pathology, which involves the study of deceased individuals to learn how they died. Autopsies are routinely requested in cases where a death is suspicious, or when the cause of death is unclear. <P> Anatomical pathology is one of two branches of pathology, the other being clinical pathology, the diagnosis of disease through the laboratory analysis of bodily fluids and/or tissues. Often, pathologists practice both anatomical and clinical pathology, a combination known as general pathology. Molecular pathology is an emerging discipline within anatomical and clinical pathology that is focused on the use of nucleic acid-based techniques such as in-situ hybridization, reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, and nucleic acid microarrays for specialized studies of disease in tissues and cells. <P> In contrast, a medical examiner is typically a physician who holds the degree of Doctor of Medicine or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine. Ideally, a medical examiner has completed both a pathology residency and a fellowship in forensic pathology. Becoming an anatomic pathologist in the United States requires completing a residency in anatomic pathology, which is on-the-job training one must perform upon completing medical school before one may practice unsupervised. <P> Anatomic (or anatomical) pathology is the branch of medicine that studies the effect of disease on the structure of body organs, both as a whole (grossly) and microscopically. The primary role of anatomic pathology is to identify abnormalities that can help to diagnose disease and manage treatment. Anatomic pathologists are also involved in performing post-mortem examinations (autopsies). An autopsy may be performed after a person has died of an illness that could not, for whatever reason, be properly or fully diagnosed before death. The physician will seek consent from the family to have an autopsy performed <P> Anatomic pathology relates to the processing, examination, and diagnosis of surgical specimens by a physician trained in pathological diagnosis. Molecular pathology is an emerging discipline within anatomical and clinical pathology that is focused on the use of nucleic acid-based techniques such as in-situ hybridization, reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, and nucleic acid microarrays for specialized studies of disease in tissues and cells.
