is silicon metal or nonmetal
|
<P> In a periodic table, metals are arranged on the left side and non-metal on the right side, while metalloids are present as a connecting line between metals and non-metals. Boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium are included among the metalloid category. Metalloids are also known as semi metals. <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. silicon is a metalloid meanind it is both metal and nonmetal. it is the secon most abundant element on earth which takes up 27.7% of the Earths crust. it cannot be found in pure form. <P> silicon is a metalloid meanind it is both metal and nonmetal. it is the secon most abundant element on earth which takes up 27.7% of the Earths crust. it cannot be found … in pure form. + 30 others found this useful. <P> Metalloids such as boron and silicon are the elements that form a diagonal separation between metals and nonmetals in the periodic table. Metalloids have properties somewhat between those of metals and nonmetals, and they often exhibit some of the characteristic properties of each type. <P> Silicon is normally classified as a metalloid. It resembles a non-metal in the following respects:- elemental silicon is not a good conductor and is a brittle solid. In it … s chemistry silicon does not form ionic compounds where it is the cation. <P> The generally accepted list of metalloids is silicon, germanium, boron, arsenic, antimony, tellurium and polonium. Silicon can have properties like a metal or a non-metal depending on what other elements it combines with. Glass is a very common silicon compound that has non-metal qualities, while the silicon used in electronics can be made to act very much like a metal.

cost of metal roof per square
|
<P> 1 Copper is the most expensive metal at $11-$12 a square foot just for the roofing material; with installation it can run $15-$18 and up per square foot, or $25,500-$39,600 for a basic single-story ranch-style house, with the price going up for complex installation work. 1 Installing interlocking steel shingles starts around $3-$7.50 a square foot (for labor and materials), or about $5,100-$16,500 for professional installation on a one-story ranch-style house with a gently sloping roof of 1,700-2,100 square feet. <P> 1 Aluminum metal roof: Can cost anywhere between $700 and $1,200 per square foot. 2 Copper and zinc metal roofs: Averages $800 to $1,100 to purchase the materials. 3 Installation costs around $700 to $1,200 per square foot. Metal roofing costs can vary depending on whether you choose steel, aluminum or copper. 1 Steel shingle metal roof: Installation can cost at least $600 per square foot for the shingles. 2 Or run $750 per square foot for a standing seam steel roof. <P> 1 Or run $750 per square foot for a standing seam steel roof. 2 Aluminum metal roof: Can cost anywhere between $700 and $1,200 per square foot. 3 Copper and zinc metal roofs: Averages $800 to $1,100 to purchase the materials. Metal roofing costs can vary depending on whether you choose steel, aluminum or copper. 1 Steel shingle metal roof: Installation can cost at least $600 per square foot for the shingles. 2 Or run $750 per square foot for a standing seam steel roof. <P> 1 Steel shingle metal roof: Installation can cost at least $600 per square foot for the shingles. 2 Or run $750 per square foot for a standing seam steel roof. 3 Aluminum metal roof: Can cost anywhere between $700 and $1,200 per square foot. 4 Copper and zinc metal roofs: Averages $800 to $1,100 to purchase the materials. Metal roofing costs can vary depending on whether you choose steel, aluminum or copper. 1 Steel shingle metal roof: Installation can cost at least $600 per square foot for the shingles. 2 Or run $750 per square foot for a standing seam steel roof. <P> On the lower end of the scale, a home owner can expect to spend anywhere from $1.20 to $1.50 per square foot for a decent metal roof, which of course does not include removal and disposal of old roofing material, but covers the average cost of material and installation. For mid-grade, coated metal roofing, one might expect to pay up to $4.00 per square foot, with copper tipping the scales at over $6.50 per square foot. Of course, prices fluctuate according to the market price of the various metals used, as well as their availability for metal roofing manufacturing. <P> The average cost of new residential metal roofs is $5.50 per square foot of roof material. This is the average price per square for metal roof of mid-grade quality. A low-grade roof costs around $1.40 per square foot on the average. Some materials of high-grade quality are around $12 per square foot. Thus, the cost of new metal roof would range anywhere from $3,400 to $28,000 for a total area of 2,500 square feet. Keep in mind, the cost of material installation or removal is not yet included in these figures. <P> 1 Since metal shingles are often sold by the square, or 100 square feet, chances are you’ll see prices labeled $200-$600 per square. 2 Including installation, the total cost for steel or aluminum roofing is often $500-$1,000 per square. 3 For a 1,500-square-foot roof, that works out to $7,500 to $15,000. Installation adds about $80-$200 per square and removal of the old shingles costs about $80-$150 per square. 1 For a 1,500-square-foot roof, the total cost for materials and installation would be $2,100-$4,800. 2 That does not include removal of the old shingles, which might cost an additional $1,200-$2,250. <P> The Costs. Average Minimum Cost: $400 per square ($4.00 per square foot). Average Maximum Cost: $650 per square ($6.50 per square foot). Because it's a premium alternative and may require specialized tools, many home improvement experts recommend having a professional install standing seam metal roofing. Otherwise, the cost of installing standing seam metal roofing generally ranges between $100 per square and $400 per square, depending on the quality of materials used, the experience of the contractor and the area where the home is located. <P> 1 For a 1,500-square-foot roof, that works out to $7,500 to $15,000. 2 For a 2,500 square foot roof, the cost is $12,500 to $25,000. 3 Premium metal roofing products such as copper cost about $10-$15 per per square foot, or $1,000-$1,500 per square, not including installation. Installation adds about $80-$200 per square and removal of the old shingles costs about $80-$150 per square. 1 For a 1,500-square-foot roof, the total cost for materials and installation would be $2,100-$4,800. 2 That does not include removal of the old shingles, which might cost an additional $1,200-$2,250.

what is limb pain
|
<P> Phantom limb pain (PLP) refers to ongoing painful sensations that seem to be coming from the part of the limb that is no longer there. The limb is gone, but the pain is real. The onset of this pain most often occurs soon after surgery. It can feel like a variety of things, such as burning, twisting, itching or pressure. <P> Pain in limb is a term used to describe discomfort affecting any part of a limb or extremity (such as an elbow or knee) or the entire limb (arm or leg). The term is general in nature and could be used to describe pain that arises from various causes. Risk for pain in limb is difficult to determine. As we age, musculoskeletal pain is more common. Unhealthy aging may be accompanied by both musculoskeletal and medical conditions that may generate pain. Every individual will experience some pain yearly. <P> Phantom pains occur when nerves that would normally innervate the missing limb cause pain. It is often described as a burning or similarly strange sensation for people who are missing limbs. The missing limb often feels shorter and may feel as if it is in a distorted and painful position. Occasionally, the pain can be made worse by stress, anxiety, and weather changes. Phantom limb pain is usually intermittent. The frequency and intensity of attacks usually declines with time. <P> Phantom limb pain is often described as a burning, stabbing, or throbbing sensation caused by neuropathic post-amputation pain. The pain is also typically described as the feeling of pins and needles. Phantom limb pain is a sensation of pain or a feeling of pins and needles following amputation. <P> Phantom limb sensation is the term given to any sensory phenomenon (except pain) which is felt at an absent limb or a portion of the limb. It has been known that at least 80% of amputees experience phantom sensations at some time of their lives. Sensations are recorded most frequently following the amputation of an arm or a leg, but may also occur following the removal of a breast or an internal organ. Phantom limb pain is the feeling of pain in an absent limb or a portion of a limb. <P> For other uses, see Phantom limb (disambiguation) . A phantom limb is the sensation that an amputated or missing limb (even an organ, like the appendix) is still attached to the body and is moving appropriately with other body parts. The missing limb often feels shorter and may feel as if it is in a distorted and painful position. Occasionally, the pain can be made worse by stress, anxiety, and weather changes. Phantom limb pain is usually intermittent. The frequency and intensity of attacks usually declines with time. <P> Phantom pain sensations are described as perceptions that an individual experiences relating to a limb or an organ that is not physically part of the body. Limb loss is a result of either removal by amputation or congenital limb deficiency. Sensations are recorded most frequently following the amputation of an arm or a leg, but may also occur following the removal of a breast or an internal organ. Phantom limb pain is the feeling of pain in an absent limb or a portion of a limb. <P> Phantom sensations may also occur after the removal of body parts other than the limbs, e.g. after amputation of the breast, extraction of a tooth (phantom tooth pain) or removal of an eye (phantom eye syndrome). The missing limb often feels shorter and may feel as if it is in a distorted and painful position. Occasionally, the pain can be made worse by stress, anxiety, and weather changes. Phantom limb pain is usually intermittent. The frequency and intensity of attacks usually declines with time. <P> Phantom limb pain is pain that is felt in the area where an arm or leg has been amputated. Although the limb is gone, the nerve endings at the site of the amputation continue to send pain signals to the brain that make the brain think the limb is still there. <P> Although the limb is no longer there, the nerve endings at the site of the amputation continue to send pain signals to the brain that make the brain think the limb is still there. Sometimes, the brain memory of pain is retained and is interpreted as pain, regardless of signals from injured nerves. Successful treatment of phantom limb pain is difficult. Treatment is usually determined based on the person's level of pain, and multiple treatments may be combined. Some treatments include: 1 Heat application. 2 Biofeedback to reduce muscle tension. 3 Relaxation techniques.

viruses that infect a cell without causing symptoms
|
<P> Viruses and bacteria are two types of potentially disease-causing (pathogenic) particles. Viruses are much smaller than bacteria and can’t reproduce without the assistance of a host. Bacteria are capable of reproducing on their own. The symptoms of viral and bacterial illnesses are sometimes similar. Examples include: 1 Rhinovirus is the virus that most often causes the common cold, but there are more than 200 different viruses that can cause colds. 2 Cold symptoms like coughing, sneezing, mild headache, and sore throat typically last for up to 2 weeks. <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. HIV infects and destroys certain white blood cells called CD4+ cells. <P> Viral diseases: Introduction. A viral infection is any type of illness or disease caused by a virus, a type of microbe. Microbes are tiny organisms that cannot be seen without a microscope and include bacteria, fungi, and some parasites, as well as viruses. <P> Other Viral Infections. Viruses are abundant in the world and cause many other infections ranging from mild to life-threatening. 1 Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a type of herpes virus that’s associated with fever, fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, and an enlarged spleen. Examples include: 1 Rhinovirus is the virus that most often causes the common cold, but there are more than 200 different viruses that can cause colds. 2 Cold symptoms like coughing, sneezing, mild headache, and sore throat typically last for up to 2 weeks. <P> Virus is a microscopic organism that lives in a cell of another living thing. Although viruses are extremely small and simple, they are a major cause of disease. Some viruses infect human beings with such diseases as measles, influenza, and the common cold. Others infect animals or plants, and still others attack bacteria. Viruses produce disease in an organism by damaging some of its cells. Viruses infect all kinds of plants and can cause serious damage to crops. Plant cells have tough walls that a virus cannot penetrate. But insects penetrate the cell walls while feeding on a plant and thus enable viruses to enter. Plant viruses may infect one or two leaves or an entire plant. <P> The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a lentivirus (a subgroup of retrovirus) that causes HIV infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). AIDS is a condition in humans in which progressive failure of the immune system allows life-threatening opportunistic infections and cancers to thrive. <P> A virus is a tiny organism that causes an infection in the body. Viruses are made up of the genetic material known as DNA or RNA, which the virus uses to replicate. In order for a virus to survive, it must invade and attach itself to a living cell. When the cell dies, new types of viruses are released, and they infect other cells. This is how viruses cause disease. Generally, viruses will only infect one type of cell. For example, the cold virus will only infect cells of the upper respiratory tract. Viruses can be transmitted in numerous ways, such as through contact with an infected person, swallowing, inhalation, or unsafe sex

how does the gut bacteria work
|
<P> If you could count all the bacteria in your gut, you would find that they outnumber the total number of cells in your body by a large number. The cells that make up your body (heart, liver, bone, and brain cells) add up to around 10 13 cells (10,000,000,000,000). <P> Gut Flora. The use of the word 'flora' to describe gut bacteria is apt. Just as weeds compete for space and nutrients in a garden and 'choke out' healthy plants, so 'bad' bacteria can behave the same way in the intestines, potentially threatening digestive – and therefore overall – health. <P> Probiotics are good bacteria that are the same as or similar to the bacteria naturally present in healthy bodies. For example, you normally have a thriving population of bacteria in your gut, which help you digest food. Probiotic supplements can increase your levels of these good-for-you microorganisms. <P> There is some evidence that the bacteria in the gut help to stimulate and help to train the immune system. 3 There is also some intriguing new research that supports the theory that gut bacteria can have a calming effect on an overactiv <P> While it is predominantly bacteria that populate our gut-zoo, some fungi, and even viruses, can set up house in the digestive system. Most people know their guts house bacteria, but many are unaware of how important they are to overall health. <P> Bacteria line your intestines and help you digest food. During digestion, they make vitamins that are vital for life, send signals to the immune system, and make small molecules that can help your brain work. “Without gut bacteria, we wouldn’t be anything. <P> The bacteria in your gut outnumber the cells that make up you ten to one. By far, most of these bacteria are found in the colon. It is estimated that together, all the bacteria in your gut weigh between three and five pounds. <P> Food enters the mouth and passes to the anus through the hollow organs of the GI tract. The liver, pancreas, and gallbladder are the solid organs of the digestive system. The digestive system helps the body digest food. Bacteria in the GI tract, also called gut flora or microbiome, help with digestion. <P> Gut bacteria aren’t the only thing influencing your immune system. Your intestines are home to many different kinds of bacteria (and some non-bacterial organisms as well). Together they’re called the “gut microbiome.”. They come from the food you eat – and whatever else gets into your mouth.

non-indigenous species definition
|
<P> Several human activities form pathways for the introduction of non-indigenous species: 1 Ballast water of freighters is a possible way of introducing non-indigenous species. 2 If a ship is not fully loaded, water is used to maintain the draft, stability and strength of the ship. Non-indigenous species are species introduced outside their natural past or present range, which might survive and subsequently reproduce. These species are introduced in situations where exchange of people or goods takes place between countries and continents, by shipping for example. <P> The term “non-indigenous population,” or “NIP” may be used for this concept. 2.2 Marine Resource Center staff, to whom queries and notices regarding non-indigenous species may be directed, include: 2.2.1 The Marine Resources Department Manager. 2.2.2 The MBL Veterinarian. 2.1.1 MBL also distinguishes and treats non-local species of native species as non-indigenous based on an assumption that populations may possess distinct traits or genetic diversity and may also possess associated non-native pathogens or other commensal or parasitic organisms. <P> Definition of terms. Non-native species. The term 'non-native species' is used throughout this website and is the equivalent of 'alien species' as used by the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). It refers to a species, subspecies or lower taxon, introduced (i.e. by human action) outside its natural past or present distribution; includes any part, gametes, seeds, eggs, or propagules of such species that might survive and subsequently reproduce. <P> The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) defines non-indigenous species as species whose introduction or spread threaten biodiversity. Non-indigenous species are species introduced outside their natural past or present range, which might survive and subsequently reproduce. These species are introduced in situations where exchange of people or goods takes place between countries and continents, by shipping for example. <P> Non-native species are species that have been introduced into new areas that have not historically been part of their native range. 'Exotic,' 'alien,' 'nonindigenous,' and 'introduced' are all synonymous terms referring to non-native species. In contrast, native species are species that have historically occurred as part of an ecosystem in a specific location. Native species are also called indigenous species. Introduction is defined by Krueger and May (1991) as the transfer by humans of an organism outside its native range. Exotic species have the potential to become invasive when they are released into a new environment. Invasive nonindigenous species are those species whose introduction causes, or is likely to cause, significant economic or environmental harm. Not all non-native species become invasive when released to novel systems. <P> 1 Ballast water of freighters is a possible way of introducing non-indigenous species. 2 If a ship is not fully loaded, water is used to maintain the draft, stability and strength of the ship. 3 This ballast water is usually taken up locally in harbours during unloading or en route on rivers and oceans. Non-indigenous species are species introduced outside their natural past or present range, which might survive and subsequently reproduce. These species are introduced in situations where exchange of people or goods takes place between countries and continents, by shipping for example. <P> Other definitions include: 1. An introduced, non native species, or a species that is the result of direct or indirect, deliberate or accidental introduction of the species by humans, and for which introduction permitted the species to cross a natural barrier to dispersal (Noss and Cooperrider 1994). Invasion biology is the study of these organisms and the processes of species invasion. The terminology in this page contains definitions for invasion biology terms in common usage today, taken from accessible publications. References for each definition are included. <P> More than 500 fish and wildlife nonnative species, also known as exotic species, have been observed in Florida. Not all nonnative species present a threat to native species, but some have become invasive by causing harm to native species, posing a threat to human health and safety, or causing economic damage. <P> In the event that a non-indigenous species or member(s) of a non-indigenous population of a native species is accidentally released in the local environment, immediate reporting is the key to an effective response. 2.1.1 MBL also distinguishes and treats non-local species of native species as non-indigenous based on an assumption that populations may possess distinct traits or genetic diversity and may also possess associated non-native pathogens or other commensal or parasitic organisms. <P> 2.1 The term “non-indigenous species,” as used in this document, is synonymous with, or includes, the terms “introduced,” “alien,” “exotic” and “non-native” species. 2.1.1 MBL also distinguishes and treats non-local species of native species as non-indigenous based on an assumption that populations may possess distinct traits or genetic diversity and may also possess associated non-native pathogens or other commensal or parasitic organisms.

what does the loop of henle do
|
<P> Merge this question into. Split and merge into it. Answer by Mrbuttersworth. Confidence votes 2. The Loop of Henle is a specialized portion of the Nephron that is partly situated in the Renal Cortex, and partly situated in the Renal Medulla. <P> A loop of Henle can be found in one of the hundreds of thousands of nephrons contained within the kidneys. The loop of Henle dips down from the nephron into the medulla and then back into the cortex. The loop of Henle is part of a nephron, a tiny tube inside the kidneys that filters solutes. The loop of Henle allows the kidneys to maintain the correct balance of water in the body. <P> The function of the ascending loop of henle is draw Sodium out of the filtrate. The ability of the ascending loop to actively transport sodium into the surrounding tissue is d … irectly related to the amount of water that can be diffused out of the descending loop of henle. <P> The Loop of Henle creates an osmotic concentration gradient in the fluid immediately surrounding it, making it possible to produce urine which is more osmotically concentrated than blood plasma. The descending limb of Henle loop promotes re-absorption of fluids. <P> In the kidney, the loop of Henle is the portion of a nephron that leads from the proximal convoluted tubule to the distal convoluted tubule. Named after its discoverer F. G. J. Henle, the loop of Henle's main function is to create a concentration gradient in the medulla of the kidney. <P> The loop of Henle is a part of a nephron, a tiny tube inside the kidneys that filters solutes. Each kidney contains hundreds of thousands of individual nephrons, which pass between the cortex of the kidneys and the medulla, connecting to collecting ducts which route urine to the ureter so that it can be expressed.

what kind of medicine can a chiropractor do
|
<P> Chiropractic is a form of alternative medicine that focuses on diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine, under the belief that these disorders affect general health via the nervous system. Chiropractic's foundation is at odds with mainstream medicine, and has been sustained by pseudoscientific ideas such as subluxation and innate intelligence that are not based on solid science. <P> Chiropractic is primarily used as a pain relief alternative for muscles, joints, bones, and connective tissue, such as cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. It is sometimes used in conjunction with conventional medical treatment. A chiropractor first takes a medical history, performs a physical examination, and may use lab tests or diagnostic imaging to determine if treatment is appropriate for your back pain. <P> View ChiropracticVideos. Chiropractic is a health care profession dedicated to the non-surgical treatment of disorders of the nervous system and/or musculoskeletal system. Generally, chiropractors maintain a unique focus on spinal manipulation and treatment of surrounding structures. <P> Natural health care without drugs or surgery. Chiropractic is a natural form of health care that uses spinal adjustments to correct these misalignments and restore proper function to the nervous system, helping your body to heal naturally. Chiropractic doesn't use drugs or surgery. <P> Spinal manipulation and chiropractic care is generally considered a safe, effective treatment for acute low back pain, the type of sudden injury that results from moving furniture or getting tackled. A chiropractor first takes a medical history, performs a physical examination, and may use lab tests or diagnostic imaging to determine if treatment is appropriate for your back pain. <P> A chiropractor is a health care professional focused on the diagnosis and treatment neuromuscular disorders, with an emphasis on treatment through manual adjustment and/or manipulation of the spine. In the first visit with a chiropractor, the doctor performs an evaluation and may perform chiropractic adjustments to help relieve pain. Chiropractic Adjustment of the Lumbar Spine (Low Back) Video. Lower back pain can be treated by a chiropractor performing adjustments to the lumbar spine, demonstrated in this video. <P> Back and neck pain are the specialties of chiropractic but many chiropractors treat ailments other than musculoskeletal issues. There is a range of opinions among chiropractors: some believed that treatment should be confined to the spine, or back and neck pain; others disagreed. Chiropractic's foundation is at odds with mainstream medicine, and has been sustained by pseudoscientific ideas such as subluxation and innate intelligence that are not based on solid science. <P> Chiropractic treatments usually involve spinal manipulation. Spinal manipulation is a treatment that uses pressure on a joint of the spine. It is also called spinal adjustment. It is used to improve pain and function. Manipulation can be done with the hands or a special device. Sometimes other joints of the body are also worked on to help treat the spine. The goal of chiropractic treatment is to increase movement in the joint and relax the muscles. Some chiropractors use heat, electrical stimulation, or ultrasound to help relax your muscles before doing <P> Chiropractors use hands-on spinal manipulation and other alternative treatments, the theory being that proper alignment of the body's musculoskeletal structure, particularly the spine, will enable the body to heal itself without surgery or medication.

fat soluble vitamins liver disease
|
<P> RESULTS: The proportion of patients with fat-soluble vitamin deficiencies in the treatment and placebo groups was similar and the data sets were combined. The proportion with vitamin A, D, E or K deficiency was 33.5%, 13.2%, 1.9%, and 7.8%, respectively. Serum fat-soluble vitamin levels were obtained in most patients in the initial three years of the study and rechecked every year. Annual examinations included a complete history, physical examination, and measurements of liver biochemistries, prothrombin time, and serum fat-soluble vitamin levels. <P> Foods that contain these vitamins will not lose them when cooked. The body does not need these every day and stores them in the liver when not used. Most people do not need vitamin supplements. Mega doses of vitamins A, D, E or K can be toxic and lead to health problems. Vitamins are essential nutrients your body needs in small amounts for various roles in the human body. Vitamins are divided into two groups: water-soluble (B-complex and C) and fat-soluble (A, D, E and K). <P> Fat-Soluble Vitamins. Small amounts of vitamins are required in the diet to promote growth, reproduction, and health. Vitamins A, D, E, and K are called the fat-soluble vitamins, because they are soluble in organic solvents and are absorbed and transported in a manner similar to that of fats. Evidence regarding anticancer roles for other fat-soluble vitamins is not persuasive. Intake of vitamin E by itself has not been related to overall risk of cancer, but the combination of low serum levels of vitamin E and selenium may be related to increased risk of some cancers, such as breast and lung cancers. <P> Fat-soluble vitamins are primarily stored in the liver and adipose tissues. With the exception of vitamin K, fat-soluble vitamins are generally excreted more slowly than water-soluble vitamins, and vitamins A and D can accumulate and cause toxic effects in the body. Vitamin A. Vitamin A was the first fat-soluble vitamin identified (in 1913). Vitamin A comprises the preformed retinoids, plus the precursor forms, the provitamin A carotenoids. Preformed retinoids is a collective term for retinol, retinal, and retinoic acid, all of which are biologically active. <P> 8888 2 nd epor ator it .S. opulation Vitamins A, E and Carotenoids Background Information Sources and Physiological Functions. Vitamins A (retinol) and E (alpha-tocopherol) and the carotenoids are fat-soluble micronutrients found in many foods, including some vegetables, fruits, meats, and animal products. 172172 2 nd epor ator it .S. opulation Vitamin D Background Information Sources and Physiological Functions. Vitamin D (calciferol) comprises a group of fat soluble seco-sterols found naturally in only a few foods, such as fish-liveroils, fatty fishes,mushrooms, egg yolks, and liver. <P> Retinoids are converted to retinol in the intestines and transported with dietary fat to the liver, where it is stored. A special transport protein, retinolbinding protein (RBP), transports vitamin A from the liver to other tissues. Carotenoids are absorbed intact at a much lower absorption rate than retinol. Vitamin A. Vitamin A was the first fat-soluble vitamin identified (in 1913). Vitamin A comprises the preformed retinoids, plus the precursor forms, the provitamin A carotenoids. Preformed retinoids is a collective term for retinol, retinal, and retinoic acid, all of which are biologically active. <P> Vitamin E. Vitamin E is the third of the fat soluble vitamins. Foods rich in Vitamin E include plant oils such as safflower and wheat germ. As with the other fat soluble vitamins, Vitamin E is also highly concentrated in meats such as liver and fat. Of these, A, D, E, and K are the fat soluble vitamins. Vitamins C and B complex are water soluble vitamins. The fat soluble vitamins are commonly stored in special fat storage cells called lipocytes, whereas, the water soluble vitamins are not stored within the body except in small amounts. <P> The fat-soluble vitamins are A, D, E, and K. Adequate absorption of these vitamins is dependent on efficient fat intake and absorption. Except for vitamin K, fat-soluble vitamins are not easily excreted from the body, so they can be toxic at excessive levels. <P> Fat-soluble vitamins are primarily stored in the liver and adipose tissues. With the exception of vitamin K, fat-soluble vitamins are generally excreted more slowly than water-soluble vitamins, and vitamins A and D can accumulate and cause toxic effects in the body.

what is unsaturated fats nutrients
|
<P> Olive oil is full of healthy unsaturated fats. 1 Tbsp. of oil has almost 12 grams of unsaturated fat and only 2 grams of the saturated stuff. In addition, olive oil provides a heart-friendly dose of both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Mix it with vinegar to create salad dressings and use it to cook meat or veggies. <P> Unsaturated fats. Unsaturated fats are the healthiest type of fat. 1 You want most of the fats you eat to be unsaturated (say: uhn-SACH-uh-ray-tid) fats. 2 Unsaturated fats are found in plant foods, like avocados, nuts, olive oil, peanut oil, canola oil, corn oil, and safflower oil. <P> On the other hand, unsaturated fats (monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats) may actually lower the risk for some diseases, including some cancers and heart disease. In addition, mono and polyunsaturated fats actually raise good cholesterol levels while lowering bad cholesterol. <P> Unsaturated fat: A fat that is liquid at room temperature and comes from a plant, such as olive, peanut, corn, cottonseed, sunflower, safflower, or soybean oil. Unsaturated fat tends not to raise the level of LDL ('bad') cholesterol in the blood. <P> Fat-soluble vitamins, such as Vitamin A, could not be absorbed without some fat in the diet. Fat also supplies the body with energy. It contains more energy than any other nutrient (9 calories per gram). There are different types of fat, including saturated fats and unsaturated fats. Saturated fats are normally solid at room temperature, while unsaturated fats are liquid. Saturated fats and trans fatty acids (trans fats) are associated with negative health effects, including heart disease. <P> Unsaturated fats are considered the ‘healthy’ fats and are encouraged as part of a healthy diet. Unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature, unlike saturated fats that are solid at room temperature. Healthy unsaturated fats come in two main forms, polyunsaturated and monounsaturated. <P> Unsaturated fats include the two heart healthy choices-polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. Found primarily in fish, plant oils, seeds and nuts, these healthy fats have been shown to lower blood cholesterol levels and lessen your risk of cardiovascular disease. <P> 1 Unsaturated fats are found in plant foods, like avocados, nuts, olive oil, peanut oil, canola oil, corn oil, and safflower oil. 2 Fatty fish, such as salmon, herring, albacore tuna, trout, and mackerel, also have unsaturated fats.

what do enteroendocrine cells secrete
|
<P> Enteroendocrine cells are located in the stomach, in the intestine and in the pancreas. <P> In the case of the enteroendocrine cells, these particular cells are present in the stomach and intestines. One more type of endocrine cells in the digestive tract, called the islets of Langerhans, are located in the pancreas. <P> Enteroendocrine cells of the intestine are the most numerous endocrine cells of the body. In a sense they are known to act as chemoreceptors, initiating digestive actions and detecting harmful substances and initiating protective responses. <P> Enteroendocrine cells are those endocrine cells found int eh gastrointestinal tract. Enteroendocrine cells are present in the stomach and intestines. The endocrine system produces signaling chemicals for specific internal parts of the body. <P> Enteroendocrine cells (EEC) form the basis of the largest endocrine system in the body. They secrete multiple regulatory molecules which control physiological and homeostatic functions, particularly postprandial secretion and motility. <P> A further preproglucagon splice product, GLP-2, is secreted by enteroendocrine L-cells in the distal small intestine and has been shown to improve intestinal wound healing in a TGF-yss yß mediated, process small bowel responding better than large. bowel <P> In contrast to other endocrine systems, enteroendocrine cells (EEC) are scattered as single cells throughout the intestinal tract, located within the intestinal crypts and villi, and comprising ~1% of the epithelial cell population [ Sternini et al. 2008 ]. <P> Enteroendocrine cells of the intestine are the most numerous endocrine cells of the body. In a sense they are known to act as chemoreceptors, initiating digestive actions and detecting harmful substances and initiating protective responses. <P> The enteroendocrine cells are those endocrine cells that are located in the gastrointestinal system. They produce hormones and other signaling molecules that act on the brain and other parts of the body, in response to environmental changes in the digestive tract. <P> Enteroendocrine cells secrete satiation peptides that produce the feeling of 'fullness' in the brain.

average cost per gallon to maintain a commercial swimming pool
|
<P> Pool Size. Before you add the chlorine, you need to know how many gallons of water are in the pool. A round ring pool, 48 inches tall and 15 feet across, holds 4,978 gallons. An in-ground pool can hold 31,000 gallons or more. To find the number of gallons in a pool, measure and multiply together the length, width and average depth, then multiply by 7.5 for a rectangular pool, 6.7 for an oval pool or 5.9 for a round pool. <P> $142 - $665. On average, pool maintenance costs $256, with most homeowners spending between $132 and $381. This data is based on actual project costs as reported by HomeAdvisor members. While a swimming pool adds many years of fun and exercise to your home life, it needs to be maintained correctly and consistently. <P> Average Inground Swimming Pool Maintenance Cost. On average a residential pool owner spends between $50 - $150 monthly on pool maintenance cost. The good news is if you do it yourself you can save a little bit here and there. A good water testing kit will ensure your chemicals are balanced correctly. Chemicals for an average 20,000 - 25,000 gallon pool should be no more than around $20 per month. According to the National Association of Realtors inground swimming pools can add an average of 7.7% to the value of a home <P> For the purpose of this discussion, we will look at the costs associated with the installation of both kinds of modern swimming pools. According to P.K. Data the average cost of a 19' diameter above ground swimming pool is $6,243; while the average cost of a 32'x16' inground swimming pool is $21,919. 1 Most pools begin with the liner, and they can be made from vinyl or fiberglass. 2 The vinyl is the least expensive with a standard cost of roughly $18,000. 3 The fiberglass bump up the costs to $20,000 without installation. 4 There are also concrete and gunite pools that require around $20,000 to $50,000 to install. <P> An average cost per month for a 10' by 30' pool should cost about $25. Of course more pool traffic, more chemicals. more cost. But the enjoyment of the pool certainly makes up for any cost. Inground pool prices vary widely depending on the size of the pool, the materials used, and many other factors. However, for your typical backyard pool, you should expect to p … ay somewhere in the range of $20,000-40,000. <P> 1 Chemicals-between the chlorine, pH testing strips, and other materials, the average pool owner spends roughly $80 per month for above ground swimming pools and $95 per month for inground swimming pools. 1 Most pools begin with the liner, and they can be made from vinyl or fiberglass. 2 The vinyl is the least expensive with a standard cost of roughly $18,000. 3 The fiberglass bump up the costs to $20,000 without installation. 4 There are also concrete and gunite pools that require around $20,000 to $50,000 to install. <P> Although costs have been rising, water is still an inexpensive resource in most American towns. An average cost is less than $5 per 1000 gallons. Filling a swimming pool, in most areas, costs less than $100. You’ll need to add some replacement water during the year, to replace splash out and backwash water. Most trucks hold 5000 gallons or so, and can make repeated trips to the hydrant until your pool is full. Water truck companies usually charge by the load, and a complete fill of the pool can be expensive, as much as $50 <P> For the third year in a row, Phoenix's average single-family residential water bill will remain at $37.75 per month, and the average single-family residential sewer bill will remain at $20.71 per month, both among the lowest in the nation. <P> With balancing, winterizing, and miscellaneous costs, I’d expect the owner of a 20,000 gallon pool will drop about $300 every summer. Total for the summer; with chemicals, water, electricity and miscellaneous maintenance, most inground pools probably cost about $500 a summer to maintain. <P> 1 Installing an aboveground pool can cost $1,500-$5,000; for in-ground estimated costs are $7,000-$16,000 for a vinyl-lined model, $15,000-$25,000 for a fiberglass shell and $17,000-$45,000 for concrete or gunite. 2 However, custom designs can run prices much higher.

where does manuka honey come from
|
<P> Manuka honey is produced in New Zealand from two closely related plants, both of which are commonly referred to as manuka. The most common honey source of these is Leptospermum scoparium. Other names for this plant include kahikatoa, red tea tree, and red manuka. <P> Mānuka honey is a monofloral honey produced in New Zealand and Australia from the nectar of the mānuka tree. The honey is commonly sold as an alternative medicine. While a component found in Manuka honey has demonstrated antibacterial properties in vitro, there is no conclusive evidence of benefit in medical use and no evidence that the whole honey has any benefit beyond its nutritional content. <P> Mānuka honey is produced by introduced European honey bees (Apis mellifera) feeding on the mānuka or tea tree (Leptospermum scoparium) which grows uncultivated throughout New Zealand and southeastern Australia. Mānuka honey is markedly thixotropic and has shown the highest viscosity among a range of studied honeys. While a component found in Manuka honey has demonstrated antibacterial properties in vitro, there is no conclusive evidence of benefit in medical use and no evidence that the whole honey has any benefit beyond its nutritional content. <P> Manuka honey is produced in New Zealand by bees that pollinate the native manuka bush. Advocates say it treats wound infections and other conditions. In manuka honey, MG comes from the conversion of another compound -- dihydroxyacetone -- that is found in high concentration in the nectar of manuka flowers. <P> Manuka (Leptospermum scoparium) essential oil in a clear glass vial. Leptospermum scoparium, commonly called mānuka, manuka myrtle, New Zealand teatree, broom tea-tree, or just tea tree, is a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family Myrtaceae, native to New Zealand and southeast Australia. <P> Another antibacterial component in manuka honey is methylglyoxal (MG). MG is a compound found in most types of honey, but usually only in small quantities. In manuka honey, MG comes from the conversion of another compound -- dihydroxyacetone -- that is found in high concentration in the nectar of manuka flowers. M G is thought to give manuka honey some of its antibacterial power. The higher the concentration of MG, the stronger the antibiotic effect <P> Manuka honey is produced in New Zealand by bees that pollinate the native manuka bush. Advocates say it has been in traditional use for generations to treat wound infections. More recently it has been tested as a weapon against hospital infections like MRSA. How manuka honey is used. The main traditional medical use for manuka honey is on top of a wound. It is generally used for treating minor wounds and burns. The honey used to treat wounds is a medical-grade honey. It is specially sterilised and prepared as a dressing, not just a jar from a shelf in a kitchen. <P> Manuka Trees & Native NZ Forests. The manuka tree grows only in New Zealand. Manuka trees typically act as a pioneering species in the regeneration of native New Zealand forests. The history of land use in New Zealand included the clearing of native forests for pastoral farming. <P> This antibacterial facet of the honey has been called the Unique Manuka Factor or UMF. Not all manuka honey possesses UMF; and it is not yet clear why honey produced in some regions has a UMF while honey produced in other areas does not. The honey that possesses the factor is called Active Manuka Honey or UMF Honey. Manuka honey is honey that is made by bees collecting pollen predominantly from the flowers of the Leptospermum Scoparium tree. The honey cannot be called as such unless at least 70% of the pollen it is made of comes from the Manuka Tree.

how much can you write a check to the irs
|
<P> For example, if the IRS notice says you reported $6,129 of miscellaneous income on your return but that a Form 1099 sent to the IRS shows the payment was actually $16,129, check your return to see if the IRS is correct. Sometimes even the IRS is wrong. For more details about Forms 1099, click here. 7. Powers of attorney are submitted to the IRS on Form 2848. See IRS Form 2848 and IRS instructions for Form 2848. Even if you don’t have a power of attorney on file, the IRS is (quite appropriately) procedure-conscious in the extreme. <P> 3. Debit card. Paying your taxes can be as easy as swiping your debit card like you do to pay for groceries. There is a fee, however, of $3.89 to $3.95, imposed by the company that provides the debit card services. If you’d rather keep that money to buy yourself a latte, consider paying with another method, such as writing a check. <P> Form or Notice. Provide the number for the form or IRS notice with the balance due that you are paying. Write the tax year or period and the form number, such as 2014 Form 1040 for a tax return. Use Form 4868 on the check to pay the estimated tax if you're asking for more time to file your return. <P> Visit this page to learn how to pay for state income taxes. Pay by Check or Money Order: You can mail a check or money order to the IRS. A payment voucher (Form 1040-V) will be generated with your tax return and you should include this form when you mail your check. 1 A payment voucher (Form 1040-V) will be generated with your tax return and you should include this form when you mail your check. 2 The correct IRS mailing address to use is based on your state residence, and you can find the appropriate mailing address on your payment voucher [ Form 1040-V sample ]. <P> You can also call the IRS to check the status. However, the IRS phone representatives can only research your refund status if 21 days have passed since you e-filed, or six weeks since you filed a paper return, or if their web-based tool directs you to call them. Plus, they might be a little busy around tax time. If you e-file, you can check after 24 hours. If you do a paper-based return, wait four weeks. The IRS states that the online tool is only updated once every 24 hours, so there is no need to check it more often. In general, you can expect your refund about 21 days after you e-file. <P> In New York, passing a bad check can get you up to 3 months in jail or a fine of up to $750 based on the face value of the check and additional penalties. In California, if it is a first time offense and the amount is less than $200 the penalty is limited to up to a year in county jail. <P> You can pay by credit or debit card through a third-party payment processor. The IRS does not pay the card fees like merchants do, so you are responsible for paying the card fees in addition to the tax fees. Fees can range from $2.99 to $3.95 for a debit card payment to 1.8 - 2.35 percent for credit card payments. <P> Installment Payments: If you can't pay the full amount you owe on your tax return (or on a notice sent by the IRS), you can use the Installment Agreement Request (Form 9465) to request a monthly installment plan. Generally, you can have up to 60 months to pay. Form 9465 is available during the checkout process. Once your return is accepted, if you chose Direct Deposit, your refund should be deposited into your account in about 2-3 weeks. If you chose to receive a paper check, the IRS needs to print and mail it. In this case your check may take 2-3 weeks longer to arrive. <P> The IRS payment plan has a fee of $105 to set up. You can lower the fee to $52 with a direct debit agreement. If your income is below a certain level, you may qualify for a reduced payment plan fee of $43. This is a one-time only fee and is not part of your payments. The IRS does not pay the card fees like merchants do, so you are responsible for paying the card fees in addition to the tax fees. Fees can range from $2.99 to $3.95 for a debit card payment to 1.8 - 2.35 percent for credit card payments.

long run marginal cost curve
|
<P> The long-run marginal cost curve intersects the long-run average cost curve at the minimum point of the latter. When long-run marginal costs are below long-run average costs, long-run average costs are falling (as to additional units of output). Given that LRAC is an average quantity, one must not confuse it with the long-run marginal cost curve, which is the cost of one more unit. The LRAC curve is created as an envelope of an infinite number of short-run average total cost curves, each based on a particular fixed level of capital usage. <P> In the short run, the shape of the average total cost curve (ATC) is U-shaped. The, short run average cost curve falls in the beginning, reaches a minimum and then begins to rise. The reasons for the average cost to fall in the beginning of production are that the fixed factors of a firm remain the same. The change only takes place in the variable factors such as raw material, labor, etc. <P> Long-run marginal cost is the slope of the long-run total cost curve. With TC (Q) =2 Q, the slope of the long-run total cost curve is 2, and thus MC (Q) = 2. Long-run mar-ginal cost also does not depend on Q. Its graph is the same horizontal line.This exercise illustrates a general point. <P> While the shape of the long-run marginal cost curve looks surprisingly like that of a short-run marginal cost curve, the underlying forces are different. This U-shape is NOT the result of increasing, then decreasing marginal returns that surface in the short run when a variable input is added to a fixed input. The negatively-sloped portion of this long-run marginal cost curve reflects economies of scale and increasing returns to scale. 1 Long-run Average Cost: This curve graphically illustrates the relation between long-run average cost, which is the per unit cost incurred by all of the factors of production used in the long run by a firm to produce a good or service, and the level of production. <P> The long-run marginal cost curve shows for each unit of output the added total cost incurred in the long run, that is, the conceptual period when all factors of production are variable so as minimize long-run average total cost. Given that LRAC is an average quantity, one must not confuse it with the long-run marginal cost curve, which is the cost of one more unit. The LRAC curve is created as an envelope of an infinite number of short-run average total cost curves, each based on a particular fixed level of capital usage. <P> It is clear from the diagram (13.9), that the long run marginal cost curve and the long run average total cost curve show the same behavior as the short run marginal cost curve express with the short run average total cost curve. The marginal cost of the second unit is the difference between the total cost of the second unit and total cost of the first unit. The marginal cost of the 5th unit is $5. It is the difference between the total cost of the 6th unit and the total cost of the, 5th unit and so forth. <P> When long-run marginal costs are above long run average costs, average costs are rising. Long-run marginal cost equals short run marginal-cost at the least-long-run-average-cost level of production. LRMC is the slope of the LR total-cost function. Given that LRAC is an average quantity, one must not confuse it with the long-run marginal cost curve, which is the cost of one more unit. The LRAC curve is created as an envelope of an infinite number of short-run average total cost curves, each based on a particular fixed level of capital usage. <P> The long-run marginal cost curve is shaped by returns to scale, a long-run concept, rather than the law of diminishing marginal returns, which is a short-run concept. The long-run marginal cost curve tends to be flatter than its short-run counterpart due to increased input flexibility as to cost minimization. Given that LRAC is an average quantity, one must not confuse it with the long-run marginal cost curve, which is the cost of one more unit. The LRAC curve is created as an envelope of an infinite number of short-run average total cost curves, each based on a particular fixed level of capital usage. <P> Long Run Average Cost Curve: In the long run, all costs of a firm are variable. The factors of production can be used in varying proportions to deal with an increased output. The firm having time-period long enough can build larger scale or type of plant to produce the anticipated output. The, short run average cost curve falls in the beginning, reaches a minimum and then begins to rise. The reasons for the average cost to fall in the beginning of production are that the fixed factors of a firm remain the same. The change only takes place in the variable factors such as raw material, labor, etc. <P> Long Run Marginal Cost Curve: The long run marginal cost curve like the long run average cost curve is U-shaped. As production expands, the marginal cost falls sharply in the beginning, reaches a minimum and then rises sharply. The marginal cost of the second unit is the difference between the total cost of the second unit and total cost of the first unit. The marginal cost of the 5th unit is $5. It is the difference between the total cost of the 6th unit and the total cost of the, 5th unit and so forth.

<P> Posted By admin on May 31, 2013. In same cases, you may want to change an SAP table from a customizing SAP table to an application table. The difference between these two is that a customizing table typically prompts you to create a transport upon any changes saved on the table. In an application table, as data is saved in the table via SM30 or through a table maintenance transaction, a transport would not be required. <P> SCC4 SAP ABAP transaction code-Client Administration. SCC4 (Client Administration) is a standard SAP transaction code available within R/3 SAP systems depending on your version and release level. Below for your convenience is a few details about tcode SCC4 including any standard documentation available. In-order to use this transaction within your SAP system simply enter it into the command input box located in the top left hand corner and press enter. Here are a few additional command options available to use when doing this. <P> Pinterest0. Transaction code SCC4 is used to define the client. This is a cross-client transaction; any changes made will affect all the clients in the SAP system. This is a controlled transaction which is to be authorized user only. 1. A client has various characteristics that are maintained considering for which purpose the client is used. <P> Tip: using transaction code SE16, in the SAP table TSTC all transaction codes can be viewd. Remark: The usual SAP terminology create, read, update and delete (CRUD) is here abbreviated referred to as change or maintain. Transaction Codes-Overview. When I started to work with SAP I got really mad about all these non-sensical 4 digit SAP transactions. In the usual help section of SAP, or under tips & tricks, I could not find what I was looking for. <P> 2. No changes allowed. The thrid option. 3. automatic recording of changes is always used in a development client. This is because changes done in that system have to be transported to quality and production systems and hence a transport request is automatically generated. 4. Hi, As per the Auditors infstructions we need to change the SCC4 settings in Production Environment to No Changes allowed from Changes without automatic recording.. Could you please let us know what is actually meant by that and what would happen if we chaNge that option in Production environment.. <P> No Changes allowed this is the standard option to be set in production environment.This option does not allow cross-client object to be changed.Change is only possible in the system through importing transport requests. Reward points if helpfull. Regards, Vamshi. Hi, As per the Auditors infstructions we need to change the SCC4 settings in Production Environment to No Changes allowed from Changes without automatic recording.. Could you please let us know what is actually meant by that and what would happen if we chaNge that option in Production environment.. <P> Table T000 is a fundamental table in your SAP System. You create and maintain your SAP System clients in this table. Therefore, you should protect this table in your productive system from unauthorized access. To protect T000, take the following precautions: · Give maintenance access to system administrators only. The corresponding authorization object is S_ADMI_FCD. <P> It is also called as customizing organizer which tracks any changes via this transaction code. A transport request depends on its type can be created in Workbench Organizer or Customizing Organizer. It is not possible to include different types of data in any of these request types.

<P> 1 Green beans can be cooked ahead of time and stored up to a few days if desired. 2 Cook until crisp-tender using your method of choice. 3 Rinse in cold water and dry thoroughly with paper towels. 4 Store refrigerated, wrapped in plastic or sealable bag for up to 4 days. Beans should be stored in a cool place. If they are not going to be used for 2 or 3 days, store in a perforated bag in the crisper area of the refrigerator. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. They are best if eaten shortly after harvesting. <P> This is good news because if you are in a crisis situation and can’t get to the grocery store to get meat, you can use beans and rice. Beans and rice in the dry form are easy to store and will keep for a long time. That is why we call them staples. They should be in everyone’s pantry. Beans are classified as legumes. Dry beans and legumes are regarded as an important staple in countries where fresh vegetables are not available during the winter months. Beans can easily be stored in a one-gallon container or a five-gallon bucket with a tight-fitting lid. <P> Legume (Bean) varieties such as: Adzuki, Black, Black-eyed, Black Turtle, Garbanzo, Great Northern, Kidney, Lentils, Lima, Mung, Navy, Pink, Pinto, Small Red, Soy, and Split-pea can all be dried and stored. The shelf life of dry beans depends on their storage condition. Soak most beans in three times their volume of cold water for six hours before cooking. Dried beans are often soaked too long. Most recipes say overnight. The best way is to put them in cold water; bring them gently to a boil and then with saucepan off the heat, allow them to remain in the water for 1 to 2 hours only. <P> Home › Dry Beans. Legume (Bean) varieties such as: Adzuki, Black, Black-eyed, Black Turtle, Garbanzo, Great Northern, Kidney, Lentils, Lima, Mung, Navy, Pink, Pinto, Small Red, Soy, and Split-pea can all be dried and stored. Quality & Purchase. Storage Conditions. Beans in normal polyethylene (food-grade) bags have a shelf life of 1 year or more. Like most stored foods, colder storage temperatures will increase shelf life. When packaged in #10 cans or Mylar-type bags, with the oxygen removed, they have a shelf life of 10 or more years 1. <P> Uncooked beans can be stored in glass containers for up to a year, while cooked beans should be refrigerated and can last for up to a week. This bean may also be referred to as a cave bean, a New Mexico cave bean, a New Mexico appaloosa, the Aztec bean, and Jacob's cattle bean. Beans should be stored in a cool place. If they are not going to be used for 2 or 3 days, store in a perforated bag in the crisper area of the refrigerator. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

If you do it right, beans will last up to a year, lentils, up to 6 months. Cooked: Refrigerate cooked beans in a covered container for up to 5 days. <P> Since the bulk of the recommended legume storage is beans, here is a basic summary of Do’s and Don’ts. BEAN DO’S: 1 Store dry beans in a cool, dry place. 2 Lightly rinse packaged dry beans; sort through them and remove any pebbles, seed pods, leaves or twigs. Key Points. 1 Beans, peas and lentils are the richest source of vegetable protein and are a good source of both soluble and insoluble dietary fiber. 2 Utilizing dried beans and soaking them overnight is the best way to get the true bean flavor and a smooth texture. 3 When legumes are eaten with grains, nuts or seeds, a complete protein can be formed ... <P> Shelf life. Scientific studies on vitamin loss in dried beans during prolonged storage could not be found. The loss would be expected to follow similar patterns as other long term stored foods where vitamin degradation occurs after 2-3 years and most vitamins are no longer present after approximately five years. Storage Conditions. Beans in normal polyethylene (food-grade) bags have a shelf life of 1 year or more. Like most stored foods, colder storage temperatures will increase shelf life.

how long is cooked pork safe to eat
|
<P> Under these temperatures, cooked meat can develop staleness as quickly as 3 to 4 hours. So if you are planning on eating cooked meat which has been left out for more than 4 hours on the shelf, you will be doing it at a health risk. In most food establishments, 4 hours is the maximum duration that a cooked meat is allowed to stand on the shelf when the room temperature is between 40F to 140F. At temperatures less than 40F, foods can remain bacteria free for a longer duration. <P> Cooked pork at room temperature is safe to eat for a few hours. If stored in the refrigerator, cooked pork is safe to eat for 3 to 5 days. If you freeze the cooked pork, y … ou can store it for 4 months. Answered. Anything that you have cooked and put into the refrigerator should only be good for 7 days then it will make you sick, but you really should eat it with in 2 or 3 days. <P> Do not leave any pork at room temperature for more than two hours. If cooked pork is not going to be used within four days of cooking, it should be frozen. Refrigerating. Raw or cooked meat can be stored safely in a refrigerator at 40°F or lower for several days. Smaller cuts can be cooked to a lower temperature to prevent them from drying out too quickly, but should be cooked to at least 145°F. Pork cooked to these temperatures may still be slightly pink inside, but safe to eat as long as it has reached the proper degrees. <P> Duration Cooked Meat Can be Left Out. In most food establishments, 4 hours is the maximum duration that a cooked meat is allowed to stand on the shelf when the room temperature is between 40F to 140F. At temperatures less than 40F, foods can remain bacteria free for a longer duration. <P> Cooked muscle meats can be pink even when the meat has reached a safe internal temperature. If fresh pork has reached 145 °F throughout, and is given a 4 minute rest, even though it may still be pink in the center, it will be safe. The pink color can be due to the cooking method or added ingredients. Cooking the Meat: For safety, FDA recommends cooking ground pork patties and other ground mixtures to 155 °F. Cook whole muscle meats such as chops and roasts, and fresh cured ham to 145 °F (medium rare) with a 4 minute rest before carving or eating, 160 °F (medium), or 170 °F (well done). <P> Too many people rely on scent and visual examination to determine the safety of eating leftovers -- a recipe for food-related illness. Here are guides to determine how long cooked meat leftovers can be safely eaten: 1 Cooked ground beef or turkey: 3 to 4 days. 2 Deli meat: 3 to 5 days. <P> NEVER thaw meat at room temperature. Allow a 24-hour thawing period in the refrigerator. After defrosting raw pork by this method, it will be safe in the refrigerator up to five days before cooking or, if you decide not to use the pork, you can safely refreeze it without cooking it first.

coffee pods expiration date
|
<P> * Two thirds of the bags with expired expiration dates were roasted in the fourth quarter of 2004 (if the embossed expiration dates are typos, as the vendor claims). Although this vendor has assured me, via E-mail, that all of the coffee pods they sent me are absolutely fresh... I certainly wouldn’t have purchased the coffee if I had known how old it was and/or that most of it had “expired” expiration dates. <P> However, in terms of the shelf life of coffee, how long coffee lasts, and if coffee expires-it does not matter whether it has caffeine or is decaffeinated. Like a lot of other drinks, it usually has a best before date or a sell by date and not a use by date or expiration date. <P> How long do K-cups last? The shelf life of K-cups is influenced mainly by the best by date and your taste buds. K-cups are individually sealed pods of ground coffee, tea, hot chocolate or apple cider. These products do not actually go bad for a very long time, but the flavor and quality do decrease over time. Of course, K cups last for a shorter period of time if they not stored properly or if their original seal is somehow broken. But remember that K cups, like a lot of other drinks, usually have a best by date which is simply the last day a manufacturer will vouch for their optimal quality and flavor, not their safety. <P> That being said, we're finding that some roasters are putting extremely short expiration dates on their pods (Timothy's is the best example). Most roasters give nitrogen flushed pods about 18 months of shelf lift, but Timothy's seems to be targeting just 2-3 months. Although this vendor has assured me, via E-mail, that all of the coffee pods they sent me are absolutely fresh... I certainly wouldn’t have purchased the coffee if I had known how old it was and/or that most of it had “expired” expiration dates. <P> The vendor confirms that the dates stamped on the coffee pods are, indeed, expiration dates. In their E-mail response, the vendor stated that The standard law in Europe for coffee pod technology allows a 2 year shelf life.. (This would seem to be totally irrelevant for a variety of reasons... Although this vendor has assured me, via E-mail, that all of the coffee pods they sent me are absolutely fresh... I certainly wouldn’t have purchased the coffee if I had known how old it was and/or that most of it had “expired” <P> How long before coffee pods expire? I know some of the boxes come stamped with a use by date, but what I'm really wondering is how many packages I can order from a site like betterpods and not have to worry about them expiring before I get a chance to use them. All the stuff in between is oxygen-free (it's filled with Nitrogen) so the pods are packed without oxygen and will last a long long time. Our pods are officially rated with 18 months til expiration, but we quote 15 months to our customers. <P> It’s a little more involved than that, but generally expired coffee beans are ok to drink. However, sometimes it just can’t be helped, so in those instances, I hope that this information will be of use to you. I can’t honestly tell you what the coffee expiration date is as this isn’t a hard science. And the coffee best buy date or the coffee use by date that you find on the bag of coffee beans is the manufacturers estimate of how long coffee will stay at it’s peak flavor. So that really doesn’t tell you much. <P> Each K-Cup ® pod has a Best-Used-by-Date imprinted on the side. The Best-Used-by-Date is a guideline for optimal freshness recommended by the Roaster; it’s not an expiration date. K-Cup ® pods are nitrogen-flushed, sealed for freshness and impermeable to oxygen, moisture and light. <P> In this case, three quarters of the bags in the shipment contained coffee pods with expired expiration dates: * Two thirds of the bags with expired expiration dates had dates that expired in the fourth quarter of 2005. Although this vendor has assured me, via E-mail, that all of the coffee pods they sent me are absolutely fresh... I certainly wouldn’t have purchased the coffee if I had known how old it was and/or that most of it had “expired” expiration dates.

<P> The muscular system is comprised of the sum total of muscles throughout the body that move the skeleton, maintain posture through steady contraction, and generate heat through cell metabolism. Humans have three types of muscle. Read More. Without muscle, humans could not live. The primary job of muscle is to move the bones of the skeleton, but muscles also enable the heart to beat and constitute the walls of other important hollow organs. There are three types of muscle tissue: 1 Skeletal muscle: This type of muscle creates movement in the body. <P> The bodily system that is composed of skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle tissue and functions in movement of the body or of materials through the body, maintenance of posture, and heat production. <P> It permits movement of the body, maintains posture, and circulates blood throughout the body. The muscular system in vertebrates is controlled through the nervous system, although some muscles (such as the cardiac muscle) can be completely autonomous. Muscles provide strength, balance, posture, movement and heat for the body to keep warm. Upon stimulation by an action potential, skeletal muscles perform a coordinated contraction by shortening each sarcomere. The best proposed model for understanding contraction is the sliding filament model of muscle contraction. <P> Muscular system. Definition. noun.

geography of the tundra biome
|
<P> Tundra. Introduction: The word tundra derives from the Finnish word for barren or treeless land. The tundra is the simplest biome in terms of species composition and food chains. Vegetation: lichens, mosses, sedges, perennial forbs, and dwarfed shrubs, (often heaths, but also birches and willows). Growthforms: typical are ground-hugging and other warmth-preserving forms including: 1 tussock-forming graminoids. <P> In physical geography, tundra is type of biome where the tree growth is hindered by low temperatures and short growing seasons. The term tundra comes through Russian тундра from the Kildin Sami word tūndar tūndâr, uplands treeless mountain. tract There are three types of tundra: arctic tundra, alpine tundra, and Antarctic tundra. In tundra, the vegetation is composed of dwarf shrubs, sedges and grasses, mosses, and lichens. <P> WEATHER: The tundra is the coldest and the driest of all the biomes on Earth. There is very little rainfall in the tundra; it rains less than ten inches a year. Winters here are long, and summers short, sometimes they last for only 6 - 10 weeks. In the winter the temperature can reach -50°F (-45.5°C). LOCATION: The tundra biome is the coldest of all biomes. It is also quite big. The tundra covers about one fifth of the land on earth. The word tundra comes from a Finnish word that means treeless plain, which is a good description of the biome. <P> The tundra biome. Tundra is the coldest of all the biomes. Tundra comes from the Finnish word tunturi, meaning treeless plain. It is noted for its frost-molded landscapes, extremely low temperatures, little precipitation, poor nutrients, and short growing seasons. Dead organic material functions as a nutrient pool. Arctic tundra. Arctic tundra is located in the northern hemisphere, encircling the north pole and extending south to the coniferous forests of the taiga. The arctic is known for its cold, desert-like conditions. The growing season ranges from 50 to 60 days. <P> Tundra is the coldest of all the biomes.

A Tundra is a treeless area near the Arctic where the ground is always frozen and there's very little plant life. Tundras are found just below the ice caps of the Arctic, across North America, in Europe, Siberia and Asia. Most of Alaska and almost half of Canada are located in the Tundra biome. Tundras cover about one-fifth of Earth's land surface. There are two different types of Tundras: Arctic and Alpine. <P> Geography. The Tundra is the youngest biome and a treeless land. The soil is permanently frozen and called permafrost. The Tundra is located in Alaska and the Alpine Tundra are alike, but the Alpine Tundra is on mountain tops. For the cold weather, you may want a big coat and thick clothes in general. Also, in the Alpine Tundra, you can climb mountains

exempt salary threshold
|
<P> The proposed rule has three major changes to the existing overtime rules: 1 It more than doubles the threshold for the salary-basis test to $970 per week ($50,440 annually); 2 It increases the “highly compensated” employee’s annual salary level from $100,000 to $122,148; and. <P> Deduct Social Security tax from your employees’ taxable wages at 6.2 percent, up to the annual threshold of $113,700, as of 2013. Once an employee satisfies the yearly wage limit, she is exempt from Social Security tax until the start of the next year. <P> It has been increased only once since 1975. The salary threshold for the exemption to the overtime protections of the Fair Labor Standards Act has eroded to such a level—$455 per week, or $23,660 for someone who works year-round—that it is currently less than the poverty threshold for a family of four. <P> 1 It more than doubles the threshold for the salary-basis test to $970 per week ($50,440 annually); 2 It increases the “highly compensated” employee’s annual salary level from $100,000 to $122,148; and. <P> That threshold is roughly equivalent to $11.38 per hour for a forty-hour week – not much more than the $10.10 minimum wage that the administration seeks, and which it claims is the equivalent of $561 in today’s dollars. <P> The announcement makes it clear that the goal is to significantly narrow the number of individuals who qualify as exempt. A major target of the proposed revisions is the current $455-per-week salary threshold for executive, administrative and professional employees. <P> Some states have a higher minimum weekly wage for salaried employees; Connecticut is one such state where the minimum for salaried workers is $475, instead of the federal threshold of $455. Related Reading: How to Dock Pay From Exempt Employees' Salaries. <P> Specifically, the U.S. Department of Labor proposed this week that the salary threshold needed to maintain such exempt classifications should increase from $23,660 to $50,440 per year (or $970 per workweek). This amounts to more than a doubling of the current salary requirement. <P> On March 13, 2014, President Barack Obama signed a Presidential Memorandum criticizing the level of the salary-basis threshold of $455 per week for exempt employees and directing the Secretary of Labor to update the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) regulations.

when did hawaii become a territory
|
<P> Answer. Hawaii—a U.S. territory since 1898—became the 50th state in August, 1959, following a referendum in Hawaii in which more than 93% of the voters approved the proposition that the territory should be admitted as a state. There were many Hawaiian petitions for statehood during the first half of the 20th century. In retrospect, perhaps, the genuinely interesting question about Hawaii’s becoming a state is why it took so long—60 years from the time that it became a U.S. possession. There were many Hawaiian petitions for statehood during the first half of the 20th century. These were denied or ignored. <P> 7.3k Views • Upvoted by Andrew Hamada, born and raised on Oahu. Until January 17, 1893, when Queen Liliuokalani was overthrown, Hawaii was an independent kingdom. After a short period as a republic, Hawaii was annexed by the United States on July 4, 1898 and became a territory. There were several attempts at attaining statehood over the next 60 years, but it wasn't until March 1959 that Congress passed the Hawaii Admission Act and President Eisenhower signed it. Following a referendum in June, Hawaii became the 50th state of the Union on August 21, 1959. Written 29 Dec, 2010 • View Upvotes. <P> Then, following its annexation in 1898, Hawaii became a U.S. territory in 1900. In 1900 the islands were made a territory, with Dole as governor. In this period, Hawaii's pineapple industry expanded as pineapples were first grown for canning purposes. After having sought statehood for many decades, Hawaii was finally admitted to the union on Aug. 21, 1959; although it was thought at first to be solidly Republican, the state has long been a Democratic stronghold. Movements for a return of some sort of native sovereignty have been periodically active. <P> 1 After 1900 Hawaii was a territory of the U.S., until the statehood vote in 1959, but today many challenge the legitimacy of this vote and statehood itself.

safe gestation period for twins
|
<P> It's usual for twins and multiples to be delivered before 38 weeks. Fewer than half of all twin pregnancies go beyond 37 weeks, and hardly any triplet pregnancies go beyond this stage. About 75% of triplets are born before 35 weeks. Be prepared for your babies to spend some time in special care. <P> No. 6: You don't feel the babies kicking any earlier with twin pregnancies. Generally when you are pregnant with twins, fetal movements become more noticeable at weeks 18 through 20 of pregnancy, and the same is true in singleton pregnancies, Al-Khan says. When a woman begins to feel fetal movements actually depends on whether she has been pregnant before. <P> The average twin is delivered after 36 weeks of gestation. Contrast that with the average for non-twins: 40 weeks. In other words, twins tend to be delivered a full month earlier than non-twins. Our twin girls were delivered at 36 weeks but remember that your twin delivery will likely be different. <P> According to the March of Dimes, close to 60 percent of all twins and more than 90 percent of triplets are born prematurely (before 37 weeks). The average twin pregnancy lasts 35 weeks. Triplet pregnancies average 33 weeks, and quad pregnancies average 29 weeks. <P> A twin pregnancy is different in the sense that it can carry greater risks as compared to singleton pregnancies. However, you can learn how to be safe during your pregnancy, especially when you're 35 weeks pregnant with twins.Keep reading to learn more about your symptoms and baby growth in 35 th week of pregnancy. <P> The reasons vary (twin pregnancies are high risk pregnancies and are susceptible to more complications than singletons, often leading to early or premature births).

how many valves are in your heart
|
<P> There are four valves of the heart: two are located between the atria and ventricles of the heart (called atrioventricular valves) and two are located in the major vessels leaving the valves (called semilunar valves). The left atrioventricular valve is also known as the bicuspid valve or the mitral valve. <P> The heart has four valves-one for each chamber of the heart. The valves keep blood moving through the heart in the right direction. The mitral valve and tricuspid valve are located between the between the atria (upper heart chambers) and the ventricles (lower heart chambers). <P> Heart valve disease occurs if one or more of your heart valves don't work well. The heart has four valves: the tricuspid (tri-CUSS-pid), pulmonary (PULL-mun-ary), mitral (MI-trul), and aortic (ay-OR-tik) valves. These valves have tissue flaps that open and close with each heartbeat. <P> There are four valves that separate the chambers of the heart and control blood flow. For more information on the valves in your heart, watch this animation. <P> Valves of the Heart. The schematic diagram below illustrates the four valves of the heart and how they are oriented within the heart. The heart valves in reality are not in this simplified orientation, but the diagram serves to show the valves and their relationship to each other. <P> All of the valves, when functioning normally, act as one-way valves, allowing blood to flow either from one chamber to another, or allowing blood to flow out of the heart, in only one direction. The valves control the flow of blood through the heart by opening and closing during the contractions of the heart. <P> Your heart valves lie at the exit of each of your four heart chambers and maintain one-way blood flow through your heart. The four heart valves make sure that blood always flows freely in a forward direction and that there is no backward leakage. <P> These are the only valves in the heart. There are four valves in the heart (not counting the valve of the coronary, the isotonic valve and the valve of the inferior vena cava): two atrioventricular valves (mitral valve and tricuspid valve); and two semilunar valves (aortic valve and pulmonic valve).

what is seizure disorder
|
<P> 1 Epilepsy is a brain disorder in which clusters of nerve cells, or neurons, in the brain sometimes signal abnormally causing strange sensations, emotions, and behavior, or sometimes convulsions, muscle spasms, and loss of consciousness. 2 Epilepsy is not contagious and is not caused by mental illness or mental retardation. <P> A seizure is a sudden disruption of the brain's normal electrical activity accompanied by altered consciousness and/or other neurological and behavioral manifestations. Epilepsy is a condition characterized by recurrent seizures that may include repetitive muscle jerking called convulsions. <P> Epilepsy is a central nervous system disorder (neurological disorder) in which nerve cell activity in the brain becomes disrupted, causing seizures or periods of unusual behavior, sensations and sometimes loss of consciousness. Seizure symptoms can vary widely. <P> Epilepsy is a brain disorder in which a person has repeated seizures over time. Seizures are episodes of disturbed brain activity that cause changes in attention or behavior. <P> Epilepsy, which is sometimes called a seizure disorder, is a disorder of the brain. A person is diagnosed with epilepsy when they have had two or more seizures. A seizure is a short change in normal brain activity. Seizures are the main sign of epilepsy. <P> Seizures, abnormal movements or behavior due to unusual electrical activity in the brain, are a symptom of epilepsy. But not all people who appear to have seizures have epilepsy, a group of related disorders characterized by a tendency for recurrent seizures. <P> Seizure disorder is a general term used to describe any condition in which seizures may be a symptom. Seizure disorder is a general term that it is often used in place of the term ''epilepsy.''.

how to add project in your resume
|
<P> Use your resume to present projects as accomplishments, particularly those that are directly relevant to the job you seek. Focus on specific projects in which you successfully used your skills and abilities to create a beneficial outcome for a former employer. Step 1. Quantify the results of your projects. Don't just say led project to increase production.. Instead, focus on the specific results: Designed and managed the streamlining of my division's production processes, resulting in a 200-percent increase over the previous year.. Step 2. Discuss how your specific involvement was beneficial to the project. <P> 2. Writing that you were a “volunteer” on your resume might be accurate, but it leaves employers wondering how your volunteer work experience applies to their workplace. Think of a title that represents the kind of volunteer work you did on the job. 3. The volunteer work on your resume should show employers the important skills you learned. As with any job on your resume, the best way to describe volunteer work is to relate it to the job to which you are applying. <P> That said, creativity blog 99U suggests that those personal projects you undertake are a great way to pad out your resume and showcase your potential. Most people don't walk out of a college with a lot of relevant work experience, but chances are you have plenty of experience in the field you're looking to get into. Don't limit yourself to the confines of a traditional resume. Recognize that under Skills you can list everything from Photoshop to silk-screening, that studio time can be just as important as past employment, and that unpaid side projects show dedication, initiative, and responsibility. <P> You can incorporate a project list within any of the three resume formats (chronological, functional, or hybrid). If you have 2–3 significant projects to highlight for each of your past positions, it would make sense to utilize the chronological format and include the projects as bulleted achievements. <P> Step 3. Include discussion of any projects in which your leadership or specialized abilities resulted in surpassing a project's established goals or objectives. If you led a project designed to reduce production costs by 10 percent, and you succeeded in reducing costs by 20 percent, emphasize that on your resume. Highlight how your involvement led to the project exceeding its goals. Don't just say led project to increase production.. Instead, focus on the specific results: Designed and managed the streamlining of my division's production processes, resulting in a 200-percent increase over the previous year.. Step 2. Discuss how your specific involvement was beneficial to the project. <P> The hours you spent doing the grunt-work -- or all of the work -- for your professor as a research assistant, deserves to be showcased on your resume. Treat this experience like you would any other. Paid or unpaid, the skills and knowledge you learned can enhance your resume. Choose which section of your resume to list this experience based on the position you are applying for and whether you have more than one resume entry for research experience. <P> Not all projects will make it on your resume. In fact, you might develop project summaries for several projects and then select the key ones that best match a specific job you are applying for. As you go through the list, start diagnosing the project. This process results in a different structure to the work history section – you still organize your experiences by job and by employer, but instead of including one list of bullet points for each job, you have the flexibility to add bullet points specific to each project you’ve worked on. <P> 1 Consider it the start of your own new business. 2 Include a link to your github or bitbucket repositories. 3 This allows the curious to see the project as a living and growing thing. 4 They'll notice your perseverance and professionalism. 5 Add a personal passions block to your resume. 6 Talk about your project. 1 Include a link to your github or bitbucket repositories. 2 This allows the curious to see the project as a living and growing thing. 3 They'll notice your perseverance and professionalism. 4 Add a personal passions block to your resume. 5

how to become anesthesiologist assistant
|
<P> Anesthesiologist assistants must complete a bachelor's degree, a graduate degree and certification. Depending on the program they choose, anesthesiologist assistants could go to school for just over six years. Anesthesiologist assistants work under the direction of a licensed anesthesiologist. They help to prepare a patient for surgery by taking a health history, inserting an IV and administering drugs. They also provide support during the administration of anesthesia, such as by monitoring fluid intake <P> The Graduate Degree. After completing a suitable undergraduate degree, the future anesthesiologist assistant must enroll in an accredited physician assistant program. These typically take a little more than two years and result in a master's degree. Outlook. The demand for anesthesiology assistants runs in parallel to demand for anesthesiologists and nurse anesthetists, all of which are high. A 2009 article in Becker's Hospital Review reported shortages of both anesthetists and anesthesiologists, and citing a need for additional anesthesia providers. <P> The work of an anesthesiologist assistant (or AA) directly contributes to the success of surgical operations by ensuring the comfort and wellbeing of the patient. AAs perform their duties under the direct supervision and discretion of the supervising medical anesthesiologist. (Either test can be retaken to achieve a higher score.). Apply to an accredited school that grants anesthesiologist assistant degrees. The American Academy of Anesthesiologist Assistants lists the ten or so schools that offer a master’s program in this area. <P> Overview. Anesthesiologist assistants occupy a growing segment of the health care community. As valued members of the anesthesia care team, these professionals provide very important assistance to the anesthesiologist in treating patients before and after surgery. (Either test can be retaken to achieve a higher score.). Apply to an accredited school that grants anesthesiologist assistant degrees. The American Academy of Anesthesiologist Assistants lists the ten or so schools that offer a master’s program in this area. <P> Anesthesia Training. Becoming an anesthesiologist assistant requires specialized training in the principles and practice of anesthesia and clinical experience. Licensed physician assistants can complete a certificate program, adding just the required courses and clinical rotations to their existing education. Outlook. The demand for anesthesiology assistants runs in parallel to demand for anesthesiologists and nurse anesthetists, all of which are high. A 2009 article in Becker's Hospital Review reported shortages of both anesthetists and anesthesiologists, and citing a need for additional anesthesia providers. <P> Complete a bachelor's degree that includes the normal premedical classes. Graduate school admission requirements often include two semesters of biology, two semesters of chemistry, anatomy, physiology, two semesters of physics and two semesters of advanced college math. The National Commission for Certification of Anesthesiologist Assistants administers a certifying exam, which you can take in your last year of study or after graduation. Maintain your certification by completing 40 hours of continuing education every two years and documenting your study to the NCCAA. <P> Anesthesia assistants, known more commonly as anesthesiologist assistants, work with licensed anesthesiologists to administer painkillers and anesthetics to patients prior to surgery. During surgery, you'll monitor a patient's vitals, such as blood pressure, heart rate and respiration. You'll want to complete a master's degree program in anesthesia. Programs are designed for prospective anesthesiologist assistants who want to work as part of an anesthesia team, which also includes nurses, an anesthesiologist technician and an anesthesiologist. <P> In order to become an anesthesiologist, you must attend at least four years of college, four years of medical school and then do a four year residency in anesthesia. So … at least 12 years of school after high school. Barney9. Medical Degree Before you can choose to become an anesthesiologist you have to graduate from a 4-year Doctoral program. This is a general degree in medicine that you should gain before deciding on the specialization. You can pursue this degree in one of 170 accredited medical schools in the US.

<P> A large bowl of mirin. Mirin (味醂 or みりん) is an essential condiment used in Japanese cuisine. It is a type of rice wine similar to sake, but with a lower alcohol content and higher sugar content. The sugar content is a complex carbohydrate formed naturally via the fermentation process; it is not refined sugar. <P> Mirin is used to add a bright touch to grilled (broiled) fish or to erase the fishy smell. A small amount is often used instead of sugar and soy sauce. It should not be used in excess, however, as its flavor is quite strong. It is sometimes used to accompany sushi. Mirin is used in teriyaki sauce. November 30 has been designated the Day of hon-mirin by the mirin industry because in Japanese wordplay the date words sound like '11' (いい, good) and '30' (みりん, mirin). <P> Definition of MIRIM. lake 108 miles (174 kilometers) long on boundary between Brazil & Uruguay near Atlantic coast. <P> Mira.

describe the characteristics of bacteria
|
<P> The most elemental structural property of bacteria is Cell morphology (shape). Cell shape is generally characteristics of a given bacteria, but can vary depending on growth conditions. Bacteria generally form distinctive cell morphologies when examined by light microscopy. The examples are as follows. 1 Coccus (spherical): Coccus can be used to describe any bacterium that has a spherical shape. 2 Bacillus (rod-like): Bacillus is used to describe any rod-shaped bacterium. 3 Spirillum (spiral): This refers to a bacterium with a spiral shape. <P> Characteristics of Bacteria. Bacteria are prokaryotes, i.e. they do not have their DNA enclosed in a nucleus (Bacteria, 2005). They are among the earliest life forms that appeared on Earth billions of years ago, and helped change the environment, creating oxygen which enabled higher forms to evolve. <P> Bacteria-Characteristics Of Bacteria. Although all bacteria share certain structural, genetic, and metabolic characteristics, important biochemical differences exist among the many species of bacteria. These differences permit bacteria to live in many different, and sometimes extreme, environments. Bacteria are mostly unicellular organisms that lack chlorophyll and are among the smallest living things on earth—only viruses are smaller. Multiplying rapidly under favorable conditions, bacteria can aggregate into colonies of millions or even billions of organisms within a space as small as a drop of water. <P> The characteristics of bacteria are among the most varied in any domain of life-the relatedness between 2 species of bacteria is often much less than the relation between any 2 given metazoans, say a human and a slug. The examples are as follows. 1 Coccus (spherical): Coccus can be used to describe any bacterium that has a spherical shape. 2 Bacillus (rod-like): Bacillus is used to describe any rod-shaped bacterium. 3 Spirillum (spiral): This refers to a bacterium with a spiral shape. <P> Characteristics. Bacteria are grouped in a number of different ways. Most bacteria are of one of three typical shapes—rod-shaped (bacillus), round (coccus, e.g., streptococcus), and spiral (spirillum). An additional group, vibrios, appear as incomplete spirals. <P> How can you tell a tiger from a wolf? By observing the characteristics of the animal. In the same way, each species of bacteria exhibits characteristics that, when taken together, can be used to differentiate the bacterial species in question from other species of bacteria. <P> Split and merge into it. Answer by HEB417. Confidence votes 2. Characteristics of bacteria are prokaryotes, meaning they do not have membrane bound organelles, peptidoglycan cell wall, and asexual reproduction, meaning they only need themselves to multiply. <P> 1 Bacillus (rod-like): Bacillus is used to describe any rod-shaped bacterium. 2 Spirillum (spiral): This refers to a bacterium with a spiral shape. 3 Filamentous: Filamentation is the growth of certain bacteria, such as E.coli, in which cells continue to elongate but do not divide. The examples are as follows. 1 Coccus (spherical): Coccus can be used to describe any bacterium that has a spherical shape. 2 Bacillus (rod-like): Bacillus is used to describe any rod-shaped bacterium. 3 <P> General Characteristics of Bacterium. The following characteristics are common to most of the bacteria 1 –. Found everywhere, in all possible habitats. 2 These are basically unicellular but may live in association with other cells forming colonies. 3 The bacterial cell is delineated by a rigid cell wall. Characteristics of a Gram-positive bacterium are given below 1 –. The cell is made of two layers; the cell membrane and the cell wall (thick layer of peptidoglycan). 2 Thus, making the cell wall thick. 3 The amount of lipid is less in the cell wall, which retains the stain back in the cell. <P> The cytoplasm and plasma membrane of most bacterial cells are surrounded by a cell wall; further classification of bacteria is based on cell wall characteristics (see Gram's stain). They can also be characterized by their patterns of growth, such as the chains formed by streptococci. Many bacteria, chiefly the bacillus and spirillum forms, are motile, swimming about by whiplike movements of flagella; other bacteria have rigid rodlike protuberances called pili that serve as tethers. Most bacteria are of one of three typical shapes—rod-shaped (bacillus), round (coccus, e.g., streptococcus), and spiral (spirillum). An additional group, vibrios, appear as incomplete spirals.

what is broth made of
|
<P> Broth is a liquid food preparation, typically consisting of water, in which bones, meat, fish, cereal grains, or vegetables have been simmered. Broth is used as a basis for other edible liquids such as soup, gravy, or sauce. <P> When I was in culinary school, I was taught that broth and stock are two different animals: broth is made from vegetables and meat simmered in water, while stock includes vegetables, a little meat, but mostly bones (which are often roasted). But in the years since my graduation, everything seems to have changed. <P> 1 Stock is typically simmered for a moderate amount of time (3 to 4 hours). 2 Stock is a good source of gelatin. 3 Bone Broth is typically made with bones and can contain a small amount of meat adhering to the bones. 4 As with stock, bones are typically roasted first to improve the flavor of the bone broth. <P> 1 Broth is typically simmered for a short period of time (45 minutes to 2 hours). 2 It is very light in flavor, thin in texture and rich in protein. 3 Stock is typically made with bones and can contain a small amount of meat (think of the meat that adheres to a beef neck bone). <P> A: Chicken stock tends to be made more from bony parts, whereas chicken broth is made more out of meat. Chicken stock tends to have a fuller mouth feel and richer flavor, due to the gelatin released by long-simmering bones. Canned low-sodium chicken broth is the busy home-cook's best friend. <P> 1 Broth is typically made with meat and can contain a small amount of bones (think of the bones in a fresh whole chicken). 2 Broth is typically simmered for a short period of time (45 minutes to 2 hours). 3 It is very light in flavor, thin in texture and rich in protein. <P> 1 Stock is a good source of gelatin. 2 Bone Broth is typically made with bones and can contain a small amount of meat adhering to the bones. 3 As with stock, bones are typically roasted first to improve the flavor of the bone broth. <P> Commercially prepared liquid broths are available, typically for chicken broth, beef broth, and vegetable broth. Dehydrated meat stock, in the form of tablets, is called a bouillon cube.

explain the definition realism art
|
<P> Broadly defined as the faithful representation of reality, realism in the arts is the attempt to represent subject matter truthfully, without artificiality and avoiding artistic conventions, implausible, exotic and supernatural elements. Literary realism is part of the realist art movement beginning with mid nineteenth-century French literature (Stendhal), and Russian literature (Alexander Pushkin) and extending to the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. <P> Definitions. Broadly defined as the faithful representation of reality or verisimilitude, realism is a literary technique practiced by many schools of writing. Although strictly speaking, realism is a technique, it also denotes a particular kind of subject matter, especially the representation of middle-class life <P> Kitchen sink realism (or kitchen sink drama) is a term coined to describe a British cultural movement that developed in the late 1950s and early 1960s in theatre, art, novels, film and television plays, which used a style of social realism. Literary realism is part of the realist art movement beginning with mid nineteenth-century French literature (Stendhal), and Russian literature (Alexander Pushkin) and extending to the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. <P> Political Realism. Political realism is a theory of political philosophy that attempts to explain, model, and prescribe political relations. It takes as its assumption that power is (or ought to be) the primary end of political action, whether in the domestic or international arena. <P> : the quality of a person who understands what is real and possible in a particular situation and is able to deal with problems in an effective and practical way. : the quality of being very much like real life: the quality of seeming to be real. : the theory or practice of fidelity in art and literature to nature or to real life and to accurate representation without idealization. — re·al·ist \-list\ adjective or noun. — re·al·is·tic \ˌrē-ə-ˈlis-tik\ adjective. — re·al·is·ti·cal·ly \-ti-k(ə-)lē\ adverb. <P> Regardless of one’s point of view on the definition of realism, realistic art undoubtedly has at its disposal an unusually diverse assortment of methods of generalization, methods for approaching reality, and stylistic forms and devices. From the standpoint of literary style, the term “realism” refers to the literary means used in works characterized by the realistic method. For many centuries the language of literature was special and “poetic.” In almost all genres, works of art were written in verse. <P> A Realist painting by Gustave Courbet. Realism (or naturalism) in the arts is the attempt to represent subject matter truthfully, without artificiality and avoiding artistic conventions, implausible, exotic and supernatural elements. Realism has been prevalent in the arts at many periods, and is in large part a matter of technique and training, and the avoidance of stylization. In the visual arts, illusionistic realism is the accurate depiction of lifeforms, perspective, and the details of light and colour. Realist works of art may emphasize the ugly or sordid, such as works of social realism, regionalism, or Kitchen sink realism <P> Alberto lvaro R os. The following is a compendium of magical realism definitions and defining narratives. The struggle to define magical realism is evident in that, as a literary practice, it subverts definition in the same ways that it subverts other kinds of rules rules of nature, rules of science, rules of behavior. Each work is singular, so that grouping texts is necessarily difficult.

what is a polar bear
|
<P> A symbol of the Arctic, polar bears are the world’s largest land predator and biggest member of the bear family. With heavy fur, blubber up to four inches thick and black skin that absorbs heat from the sun, polar bears are amazingly well adapted to the Arctic climate. <P> The polar bear is the newest of the eight bear species, and scientists believe that the polar bear evolved about 200,000 years ago from brown bear ancestors. Both polar bears and brown bears are big and are the largest land carnivores. <P> Polar bears roam the Arctic ice sheets and swim in that region's coastal waters. They are very strong swimmers, and their large front paws, which they use to paddle, are slightly webbed. <P> The total polar bear population is divided into 19 units or subpopulations. Of those, the latest data from the IUCN Polar Bear Specialist Group show that three subpopulations are in decline and that there is a high estimated risk of future decline due to climate change. <P> Polar bears are the largest land carnivores in the world, rivaled only by the Kodiak brown bears of southwestern Alaska. Polar bears are marine mammals, and spend much of their time on Arctic sea ice. Many adaptations make polar bears uniquely suited to life in icy habitats. <P> The polar bear is classified as a vulnerable species, with eight of the nineteen polar bear subpopulations in decline. For decades, large scale hunting raised international concern for the future of the species but populations rebounded after controls and quotas began to take effect. <P> The polar bear (Ursus maritimus) is a carnivorous bear whose native range lies largely within the Arctic Circle, encompassing the Arctic Ocean, its surrounding seas and surrounding land masses. It is a large bear, approximately the same size as the omnivorous Kodiak bear (Ursus arctos middendorffi). <P> Complete facts and information on polar bears, including size, feeding habits, cubs, snow dens, adaptations to the Arctic, and population status. <P> Often referred to as the largest land carnivores in the world, polar bears are actually marine mammals, and spend much of their time on Arctic sea often ice hundreds of miles from land. Climate change is melting their icy habitat, making it increasingly difficult to travel, hunt and raise their young.

what type of cloud most likely produces hail
|
<P> Stronger thunderstorm cells are capable of producing tornadoes and waterspouts. There are four types of thunderstorms: single-cell, multicell cluster, multicell lines, and supercells. Supercell thunderstorms are the strongest and the most associated with severe weather phenomena. Dry thunderstorms, with no precipitation, can cause the outbreak of wildfires with the heat generated from the cloud-to-ground lightning that accompanies them. Several methods are used to study thunderstorms, such as weather radar, weather stations, and video photography. <P> A cloud is made up of liquid water droplets. A cloud forms when air is heated by the sun. As it rises, it slowly cools it reaches the saturation point and water condenses, forming a cloud. As long as the cloud and the air that its made of is warmer than the outside air around it, it floats! Clouds move with the wind. Clouds are white because they reflect the light of the sun. Light is made up of colors of the rainbow and when you add them all together you get white. The sun appears a yellow color because it sends out more yellow light than any other color. Clouds reflect all the colors the exact same amount so they look white. <P> Hail is possible within most thunderstorms as it is produced by cumulonimbi, and within 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) of the parent storm. Hail formation requires environments of strong, upward motion of air with the parent thunderstorm (similar to tornadoes) and lowered heights of the freezing level. Any thunderstorm which produces hail that reaches the ground is known as a hailstorm. Hail has a diameter of 5 millimetres (0.20 in) or more. Hailstones can grow to 15 centimetres (6 in) and weigh more than 0.5 kilograms (1.1 lb). Unlike ice pellets, hailstones are layered and can be irregular and clumped together. <P> Hail is a form of solid precipitation. It is distinct from sleet, though the two are often confused for one another. It consists of balls or irregular lumps of ice, each of which is called a hailstone. Sleet falls generally in cold weather while hail growth is greatly inhibited at cold temperatures. Any thunderstorm which produces hail that reaches the ground is known as a hailstorm. Hail has a diameter of 5 millimetres (0.20 in) or more. Hailstones can grow to 15 centimetres (6 in) and weigh more than 0.5 kilograms (1.1 lb). Unlike ice pellets, hailstones are layered and can be irregular and clumped together. <P> thunderstorm clouds. High winds can flatten the top of the cloud into an anvil-like shape. Cumulonimbus clouds are associated with heavy rain, snow, hail, lightning and even tornadoes. The anvil usually points in the direction the storm is moving. Cirrus clouds. the most common of the high clouds. They are composed of ice and are thin, wispy clouds blown in high winds into long streamers. Cirrus clouds are usually white and predict fair to pleasant weather. By watching the movement of cirrus clouds you can tell from which direction weather is approaching. <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. The most likely type of cloud that would result in hail and lightning would be the nimbous cloud. <P> A thunderstorm, also known as an electrical storm, a lightning storm, or a thundershower, is a type of storm characterized by the presence of lightning and its acoustic effect on the Earth's atmosphere known as thunder. Thunderstorms occur in association with a type of cloud known as a cumulonimbus. Dry thunderstorms, with no precipitation, can cause the outbreak of wildfires with the heat generated from the cloud-to-ground lightning that accompanies them. Several methods are used to study thunderstorms, such as weather radar, weather stations, and video photography. <P> Hail forms in strong thunderstorm clouds, particularly those with intense updrafts, high liquid water content, great vertical extent, large water droplets, and where a good portion of the cloud layer is below freezing 0 °C (32 °F). These types of strong updrafts can also indicate the presence of a tornado. Any thunderstorm which produces hail that reaches the ground is known as a hailstorm. Hail has a diameter of 5 millimetres (0.20 in) or more. Hailstones can grow to 15 centimetres (6 in) and weigh more than 0.5 kilograms (1.1 lb). Unlike ice pellets, hailstones are layered and can be irregular and clumped together. <P> Hail requires strong updrafts to keep the hydrometeors suspended to accumulate ice. The only clouds that can normally support these updrafts are cumulus or cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds. Hail requires TWO elements. One is an updraft and the other is that the water inside the cloud reaches the freezing level. This normally occurs only in cumulus or cumulonimbus clouds that extend to fairly high altitudes. Fair weather cumulus, for example, do not obtain the needed height to reach the freezing level. <P> Clouds. A cloud is a large collection of very tiny droplets of water or ice crystals. The droplets are so small and light that they can float in the air. All air contains water, but near the ground it is usually in the form of an invisible gas called water vapor. When warm air rises, it expands and cools. Clouds are white because they reflect the light of the sun. Light is made up of colors of the rainbow and when you add them all together you get white. The sun appears a yellow color because it sends out more yellow light than any other color. Clouds reflect all the colors the exact same amount so they look white.

<P> The average cost of living for an American [edit]. 1 $20,194 per person per year according to Bureau of Labor Statistics (value given divided by 2.5 average household size ('consumer unit') - [1]. Cost over a lifetime [edit]. Say a person lives 78 years [9] , and you take the average cost of living from BLS. Over 78 years, one spends an average of about $1.6 million dollars just to survive. Of this, one spends about $1M on housing, food, and cars ($12683 per year * 78). <P> Average Diet Food Budget = $7 a day per person. This USDA plan assumes this family of 4 always eats at home, never at McDonald’s, Subway, or Applebee’s. A single meal out can blow the entire days food budget ! Knowing that Americans eat out 5 times a week I consider this a low number. To answer that question we need to know just how much do people spend on food on average on both an average diet and a real food diet. According to the USDA the average family of four is spending somewhere between $544 to $1235 per month for food eaten at home. That’s a huge range! They break it down into 4 plans: Thrifty, low-cost, moderate, and liberal <P> The average cost of one meal per day per person is 7 dollars. However, the average price of a home cooked meal per day per person is just under 3 dollars. <P> Young adults' average weekly food spending is $173, more than what older Americans say they spend. Those with incomes of $75,000 or more per year are averaging $180 per week, compared with $144 for those with incomes of $30,000 to $74,999, and $127 for the lowest income group. One in 10 Americans say they spend $300 or more per week and, at the other extreme, 8% spend less than $50. Gallup has asked a version of this question as far back as 1943, but has not asked it since 1987. In 1943, an average of $15 per week was spent on food. <P> I spend about 360 month on food total ($12 a day). That includes going out so much of my socializing with friends and other single person activities (dating). But for just cooking at home I'm closer to 250 a month ($8 a day). But this is not an area I choose to optimize. I've been spending $565 a month for three people which is just over $6 per person per day. That includes mostly eating in with eating out for a meal ~once a week but nothing fancy. Beer/wine for one social drinker is included in the figure. <P> Right now my monthly budget for food is around $100 a month. That's for me mostly, but I also have kids who don't live with me who come stay with me a couple of weekends a month. At my current budget, that's working out to be around $3.33 per day (or $1.11 per meal). I've been spending $565 a month for three people which is just over $6 per person per day. That includes mostly eating in with eating out for a meal ~once a week but nothing fancy. Beer/wine for one social drinker is included in the figure. <P> WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Americans report spending $151 on food per week on average. One in 10 Americans say they spend $300 or more per week and, at the other extreme, 8% spend less than $50. Gallup has asked a version of this question as far back as 1943, but has not asked it since 1987. In 1943, an average of $15 per week was spent on food. The final 1987 estimate was $106 <P> Average daily water use in USA is 50 to 100 gallons per person per day, showers, hand washing, dishes, toilets, laundry ect. Equals about 2,000 - 3,000 gallons a month. This s … ite has a great calculator - http://ga.water.usgs.gov/edu/sq3.html Jusy copy and paste it in your browser window. <P> So, just $5 per day each. That’s $2 less per person per day than the average USDA food budget. For a family of 4 that is $600 per month, with some families coming in a lot lower. The average USDA monthly food budget for that same family is $840. To answer that question we need to know just how much do people spend on food on average on both an average diet and a real food diet. According to the USDA the average family of four is spending somewhere between $544 to $1235 per month for food eaten at home. That’s a huge range! They break it down into 4 plans: Thrifty, low-cost, moderate, and liberal

what is ammonia solution
|
<P> 1 Ammonia gas dissolves easily in water to form ammonium hydroxide, a caustic solution and weak base. 2 Ammonia gas is easily compressed and forms a clear liquid under pressure. 3 Ammonia is usually shipped as a compressed liquid in steel containers. <P> Water solutions of ammonia are also called ammonium hydrate, aqua ammonia, or ammonia water; the solution may contain up to 30% ammonium hydroxide by weight at room temperature and pressure. The major use of ammonia and its compounds is as fertilizers. <P> Ammonia is a gas that is highly soluble in water. When in solution with water, ammonia becomes ammonium hydroxide, which is strongly basic. The pH of the solution depends on the concentration of ammonium hydroxide, temperature, etc. I happen to think its about 11.5. Dude, yer wrong-its 11.6 definitely. <P> Household ammonia, also known as Ammonium Hydroxide, is an excellent and budget-friendly cleaner to use throughout the home. Ammonia cleaning solutions suitable for household use are generally 5-10% ammonia mixed with water. <P> 1 Ammonia has alkaline properties and is corrosive. 2 Ammonia gas dissolves easily in water to form ammonium hydroxide, a caustic solution and weak base. 3 Ammonia gas is easily compressed and forms a clear liquid under pressure. 4 Ammonia is usually shipped as a compressed liquid in steel containers. <P> Uses. Ammonia solutions are used to clean, bleach, and deodorize; to etch aluminum; to saponify (hydolyze) oils and fats; and in chemical manufacture. The ammonia sold for household use is a dilute water solution of ammonia in which ammonium hydroxide is the active cleansing agent. It should be used with caution since it can attack the skin and eyes. The vapors are especially irritating—prolonged exposure and inhalation cause serious injury and may be fatal.

what are the causes of post nasal drip
|
<P> The sensation of post-nasal drip is not usually caused by an increased amount of mucus coming from your nose or sinuses, says Dr. Dolan. “It is more likely to be caused by the mucus becoming too thick or by irritation of your throat. In my experience, the three most common causes are allergy, gastric reflux, and medications that cause dryness.”. Here are some other common conditions that may cause post-nasal drip: 1 Cold or flu viruses. 2 Sinus infection. <P> Postnasal drip is a condition in which the sinuses produce excessive amounts of mucus. This excessive mucus accumulates in the back of the nose and drips into the throat. Postnasal drip is a symptom of a variety of conditions and diseases. Postnasal drip: Treatments. Treatment of post nasal drip varies depending on the underlying cause, the age and general health of the patient, the severity, and other factors. A common general treatment is gently irrigating the nose with a sterile saline solution. <P> When sinusitis causes postnasal drip, an infection of the sinuses results in the development and discharge of extra mucus from the nose. This mucus can also run down the throat, causing symptoms of postnasal drip. When postnasal drip is due to allergic rhinitis, allergens breathed into the nose trigger an allergic reaction. This leads to a release of chemicals, including histamine, which cause inflammation and the production of extra mucus. Postnasal drip: Treatments. Treatment of post nasal drip varies depending on the underlying cause, the age and general health of the patient, the severity, and other factors. A common general treatment is gently irrigating the nose with a sterile saline solution. <P> Post-nasal drip is the sensation of mucus accumulating or dripping in the back of your throat. Post-nasal drip can irritate your throat, causing a sore throat or cough. It can go along with a stuffy nose if you have a nasal allergy. “It is more likely to be caused by the mucus becoming too thick or by irritation of your throat. In my experience, the three most common causes are allergy, gastric reflux, and medications that cause dryness.”. Here are some other common conditions that may cause post-nasal drip: 1 Cold or flu viruses. 2 Sinus infection. <P> Post-nasal drip often leads to a sore, irritated throat. Although there is usually no infection, the tonsils and other tissues in the throat may swell. This can cause discomfort or a feeling that there is a lump in the throat. Successful treatment of the post-nasal drip will usually clear up these throat symptoms. <P> Post-nasal drip may become worrisome if it is accompanied by symptoms such as persistent cough, severe stuffy nose, recurrent infections, blood tinged mucus, or voice changes. In severe or persistent cases of post-nasal drip, a patient may be referred to an ear, nose, and throat specialist, explains Dolan. “It is more likely to be caused by the mucus becoming too thick or by irritation of your throat. In my experience, the three most common causes are allergy, gastric reflux, and medications that cause dryness.”. Here are some other common conditions that may cause post-nasal drip: 1 Cold or flu viruses. 2 Sinus infection. <P> Post-nasal discharge, also called post-nasal drip (PND), describes the sensation of mucous accumulation in the throat or a feeling that mucus is dripping downward from the back of the nose. PND can be caused by excessive or thick secretions or throat muscle and swallowing disorders. <P> In fact, postnasal drip is the most common cause of chronic cough. Excess mucus running down your throat may also make you feel hoarse and give you a sore throat. If the mucus plugs up the Eustachian tube -- the tube that connects the throat to the middle ear -- it can lead to a painful ear infection. The excess mucus production that triggers postnasal drip has a number of possible causes, including: 1 Colds. 2 Flu. 3 Allergies (called allergic postnasal drip). 4 Sinus infection or sinusitis (inflammation of the sinuses). <P> This mucus can also run down the throat, causing symptoms of postnasal drip. When postnasal drip is due to allergic rhinitis, allergens breathed into the nose trigger an allergic reaction. This leads to a release of chemicals, including histamine, which cause inflammation and the production of extra mucus. This excessive mucus accumulates in the back of the nose and drips into the throat. Postnasal drip is a symptom of a variety of conditions and diseases. Conditions and diseases that commonly cause postnasal drip include allergic rhinitis and sinusitis. <P> Treatment for postnasal drip depends on the cause of the problem. Bacterial infections are treated with antibiotics. However, green or yellow mucus is not necessarily proof of a bacterial infection. Colds can also turn the mucus these colors and they are caused by viruses, which don't respond to antibiotics.

what is edta in chemistry
|
<P> For example; many EDTA complex with sodium, calcium or magnesium metal ions are used for different purposes and that is known as edta chelation therapy. In this chelation therapy around 20-30 or more doses of EDTA complexes are delivered to the patient with vitamin/mineral supplements under the supervision of a doctor. EDTA Chelation. EDTA, ethylene diaminetetraacetic acid is a hexadentate ligand that acts as a chelating agent in the formation of coordination complexes. There are various applications of this chelating agent in biochemical, medical and other industries. <P> EDTA is a chemical that binds and holds on to (chelates) minerals and metals such as chromium, iron, lead, mercury, copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, calcium, cobalt, manganese, and magnesium. When they are bound, they can't have any effects on the body and they are removed from the body. EDTA is sometimes used as an ointment for skin irritations produced by metals such as chromium, nickel, and copper. Eye drops containing EDTA are used to treat calcium deposits in the eye. In foods, EDTA bound to iron is used to “fortify” grain-based products such as breakfast cereals and cereal bars. <P> EDTA. n. 1. (Elements & Compounds) ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid; a colourless crystalline slightly soluble organic compound used in inorganic chemistry and biochemistry. It is a powerful chelating agent used to stabilize bleach in detergents. Noun. 1. EDTA-a complex molecule used medically to chelate metal ions in cases of lead or heavy metal poisoning. ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. molecule - (physics and chemistry) the simplest structural unit of an element or compound. <P> EDTA. n. A crystalline acid, C 10 H 16 N 2 O 8, that acts as a strong chelating agent. The sodium salt of EDTA is used as an antidote for metal poisoning, an anticoagulant, and an ingredient in a variety of industrial reagents. Noun. 1. EDTA-a complex molecule used medically to chelate metal ions in cases of lead or heavy metal poisoning. ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. molecule - (physics and chemistry) the simplest structural unit of an element or compound. <P> Chelation therapy is a treatment that involves repeated intravenous (IV) administration of a chemical solution of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, or EDTA. It is used to treat acute and chronic lead poisoning by pulling toxins (including heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and mercury) from the bloodstream. EDTA is a synthetic chemical and not found naturally. Because there is concern that EDTA may deplete important vitamins and minerals, EDTA chelation therapy is often given with essential nutrients (including calcium, B vitamins, vitamin C, and magnesium). <P> A chelate is a chemical compound composed of a metal ion and a chelating agent. A chelating agent is a substance whose molecules can form several bonds to a single metal ion. In other words, a chelating agent is a multidentate ligand. An example of a simple chelating agent is ethylenediamine. ethylenediamine. A single molecule of ethylenediamine can form two bonds to a transition-metal ion such as nickel(II), Ni 2+ . EDTA is a versatile chelating agent. It can form four or six bonds with a metal ion, and it forms chelates with both transition-metal ions and main-group ions. EDTA is frequently used in soaps and detergents, because it forms a complexes with calcium and magnesium ions. <P> Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, widely abbreviated as EDTA (for other names, see Table), is an aminopolycarboxylic acid and a colourless, water-soluble solid. Its conjugate base is named ethylenediaminetetraacetate. It is widely used to dissolve limescale. As a structural isomer of EDTA, ethylenediamine-N,N’-disuccinic acid can exist three isomers : (S,S), (R,S)/(S,R) and (R,R), but only the S,S-isomer is readily biodegradable. EDDS exhibits a surprisingly high rate biodegradation at 83% in 20 days. <P> Adult. For heavy metal toxicity: EDTA chelation therapy is often given intravenously with calcium, magnesium, and vitamins B and C over a period of 1 to 3 hours. The recommended adult dosage varies depending on the size of the person and the amount of lead or other metal in the body. EDTA is a synthetic chemical and not found naturally. Because there is concern that EDTA may deplete important vitamins and minerals, EDTA chelation therapy is often given with essential nutrients (including calcium, B vitamins, vitamin C, and magnesium).

Urine test – Detectable after 2 to 5 hours of use, till a period of 3 <P> Confidence votes 25. Cocaine can be detected in the urine for 4-8 hours after a single snorted (nasal) dose, and up to 24 hours after a single ingested (oral) dose. A breakdown product of cocaine, benzoylecgonine can be detected in the urine for up to 60 hours after a single use, or up to 22 days after repeated use. <P> Cocaine can be detected in the system anywhere from 12 hours to 4 days after use. The length of time cocaine stays in your system depends on the dosage amount ingested, the route of administration and frequency of use. When cocaine is metabolized, the liver turns it into benzoylecgonine, which is then excreted in urine. <P> Cocaine normally stays in the system for approximately 48 hours. Although the method of administration and the dose administered affects how long it takes for the body to metabolize this drug. When coca leaves are chewed, absorption time is around 30 minutes. <P> Injected cocaine can be detected in the urine even 20 hours or more from use. The cocaine metabolites (benzoylecgonine, ecgonine methyl ester and coca ethylene) are detected until 60 hours from last single use or 22 days after continual use. <P> According to WebMD, the length of time that cocaine will stay in your blood is about 12 hours from the time that you last use it. However, if a drug test is your concern, few people use blood tests to check for cocaine abuse because their ability to check for traces of the drug are limited to a small window. <P> Very low concentrations may be detected during the initial few hours, however, benzoylecgonine persists in urine at detectable concentrations from 2-4 days. Chronic, heavy use of cocaine can result in detectable amounts for up to 10 days following a binge use. <P> Cocaine is a fast acting drug with a short half life. The detection times reflect how long Cocaine stays in your system. Cokes half life is only about 60 minutes. Its effects can be felt within about 10-15 minutes after use.

medium rare lamb chop temperature
|
<P> Grill or broil chops for 7 to 11 minutes (or until a meat thermometer measures 145 degrees Fahrenheit) for medium rare. Cook lamb chops for 15 to 19 minutes (or until a meat thermometer measures 160 degrees Fahrenheit) for medium preparation. <P> The proper temperature to cook a medium-rare steak is 130° - 135° F. Although, according to foodsafety.gov, beef, lamb, and pork should be cooked to at least 145° (or above, if desired). Ground meat must be cooked to at least 160° F. Ground poultry must be cooked to at least 165°. <P> “For safety, the USDA recommends cooking lamb patties and ground lamb mixtures such as meat loaf to a safe minimum internal temperature of 160 °F as measured on a food thermometer. However, whole muscle meats such as roasts, steaks, and chops may be cooked to 145 °F (medium rare), 160 °F (medium), or 170 °F (well done). For approximate cooking times for use in meal planning, see the following chart compiled from various resources. Times are based on lamb at refrigerator temperature (40 °F). Remember that appliances and outdoor grills can vary in heat. Use a food thermometer to check for safe cooking and doneness of lamb.”. <P> Chops and roasts should be cooked to 145 degrees fahrenheit (medium rare), 160 degrees fahrenheit (medium), or 170 degrees fahrenheit (well-done). Tasting the best: Serve the cooked lamb in a shiny platter with clean hands. Finally taste the wonderful dish that you have prepared. <P> However, chops cooked to this temperature are medium-well, gray and tough. Cooking lamb chops to a pink, medium-rare temperature of 120 degrees to 125 degrees F still safely destroys any bacteria present on the surface of the meat. Meanwhile, bacteria is unlikely inside the chops. <P> Cook the lamb chops for 3 minutes on the first side, flip the meat, and cook for another 3 minutes on the other side. Check the internal temperature of the lamb with the meat thermometer to ensure that it has reached a medium-rare temperature of 125 to 130 degrees Fahrenheit.

<P> Confidence votes 20.2K. The hook-loop fastener was invented in 1948 by Swiss engineer, Georges de Mestral who lived in Commugny, Switzerland. The idea came to him in 1941 after returning from a hunting trip with his dog in the Alps. He took a close look at the burrs (seeds) that kept sticking to his clothes and his dog's fur. A man named George de Mestral found burrs stuck to his pants and dog's fur after a nature hike in 1948. He studied the way the hook-like pattern of the burrs stuck to the clot … h of his pants under a microscope. <P> Georges de Mestral (June 19, 1907 – February 8, 1990) was a Swiss electrical engineer who invented the hook and loop fastener. <P> Velcro was invented by George de Mestral a Swiss electrical engineer in 1941. This idea of inventing Velcro came to him when one day he returned after a walk from the hills and found cockleburs stuck to his clothes and his dog’s fur. George noticed its natural hook and loop quality and started making a fabric fastener on the same quality. <P> See the original patent and drawings for the invention of Velcro. The invention of Velcro was created by Swiss engineer, George de Mestral. He received a patent from the Swiss government in 1955 and was subsequently granted patents from other countries around the world <P> The original patented hook and loop fastener was invented in 1948 by the Swiss electrical engineer George de Mestral, who patented it in 1955 and subsequently refined and developed its practical manufacture until its commercial introduction in the late 1950s.

Among them is a series of mechanical-based fastening products, including a brand of fabric hook and loop fastener often colloquially referred to by the company name, Velcro. <P> The Velcro® brand of hook and loop was invented by a man named George de Mestral in the 1940's while hunting in the Jura mountains in Switzerland. Mr. de Mestral, a Swiss engineer, realized that the tiny hooks of the cockle-burs were stuck on his pants and in his dog's fur and wondered how they attached themselves. De Mestral, along with help from friends in the weaving business, finally duplicated mother natures hook and loop fastener in the manufacturing plant. The result of his new invention was Velcro ® brand fasteners, from the French words for velvet velour, and hook, crochet. <P> Velcro, which was invented by a Swiss Electrical Engineer George de Mestral, comprises two layers and when both these sides are hard-pressed together, they assist in fixing two surfaces. The thought to invent Velcro hits Mestral’s mind in the year 1941 after coming back from a hunting tour with his dog. <P> The hook-loop fastener was invented in 1948 by Swiss engineer, Georges de Mestral who lived in Commugny, Switzerland.

<P> This article is about the original convention that created the U.S. Constitution. For that Constitution's yet-unused method of changing itself, see Convention to propose amendments to the United States Constitution. The Constitutional convention took place in Philadelphia on May 14, 1787. Rhode Island, fearing that the Convention would work to its disadvantage, boycotted the Convention and, when the Constitution was put to the states, initially refused to ratify it. <P> In 1789, Madison, then a member of the newly established U.S. House of Representatives, introduced 19 amendments to the Constitution. On September 25, 1789, Congress adopted 12 of the amendments and sent them to the states for ratification. America Gets a Constitution. After several failed attempts at creating a government, a 1787 convention is called to draft a new legal system for the United States. This new Constitution provides for increased federal authority while still protecting the basic rights of its citizens. <P> The delegates elected George Washington to preside over the Convention. The result of the Convention was the creation of the United States Constitution, placing the Convention among the most significant events in the history of the United States. The Constitutional convention took place in Philadelphia on May 14, 1787. Rhode Island, fearing that the Convention would work to its disadvantage, boycotted the Convention and, when the Constitution was put to the states, initially refused to ratify it. <P> The Constitution was created because the previous government structure under the Articles of Confederation was not working.

what are proteins made of
|
<P> Protein molecules are often very large and are made up of hundreds to thousands of amino acid units. Though large, the protein typically has a small working region, such as a pocket located on the three-dimensional surface of the folded protein chain which acts as a binding site. <P> The sequence of amino acids in a protein is defined by the sequence of a gene, which is encoded in the genetic code. Protiens are made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sometimes even sulfur. <P> Proteins, our most complex substances, are made up of varying combinations of nitrogen-containing amino acids. 1 There are twenty different amino acids that are important to the body. These twenty combine together in hundreds of intricate chemical patterns to create a variety of complex protein structures. <P> Protein molecules are often very large and are made up of hundreds to thousands of amino acid units. The 20 amino acids are combined in different ways to make up the 100,000 or so different proteins in the human body. <P> Knowledge center. Proteins are large molecules consisting of amino acids which our bodies and the cells in our bodies need to function properly. Our body structures, functions, the regulation of the body's cells, tissues and organs cannot exist without proteins. <P> Proteins (also known as polypeptides) are organic compounds made of amino acids arranged in a linear chain and folded into a globular form. The amino acids in a polymer are jo … ined together by the peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino groups of adjacent amino acid residues. <P> Proteins are made in the cytoplasm. In prokaryotes, there are proteins called ribosomes that link on to the mRNA and synthesize a protein. This process is called transla … tion. In eukaryotes however, translation also occurs on ribosomes which are situated on the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum. <P> Each protein has its own sequence of amino acids. Proteins are made of amino acids hooked end-to-end like beads on a necklace. To become active, proteins must twist and fold into their final, or native, conformation.. This final shape enables proteins to accomplish their function in your body. <P> Amino Acids: The Building Blocks of Protein. There are a total of 20 different amino acids, and depending upon the sequence in which they appear, a specific job or function is carried out in your body. Think of amino acids as similar to the alphabet—26 letters that can be arranged in a million different ways.

<P> It is thus the intravascular component of volume contraction (or loss of blood volume due to things such as hemorrhaging or dehydration), but, as it also is the most essential one, hypovolemia and volume contraction are sometimes used synonymously. Hypovolemia can be recognized by tachycardia, diminished blood pressure, and the absence of perfusion as assessed by skin signs (skin turning pale) and/or capillary refill on forehead, lips and nail beds. The patient may feel dizzy, faint, nauseated, or very thirsty. <P> However, in minority of cases the red blood cells are destroyed due to mechanical damage, external toxins, parasites that enter the cell or immune proteins (complement) that attach to the blood cell and triggers its destruction. This is known as intravascular hemolysis. More prominent symptoms are seen in cases where there is rapid and massive red blood cell destruction. Signs and symptoms include 1 : Shortness of breath. 2 Easily fatigued. 3 Chest pain. 4 Rapid heart rate. 5 Red to brown or dark yellow color of the urine. 6 Jaundice – yellow discoloration of the skin and eye. 7 Enlarged spleen and/or liver. <P> Antemortem extravascular blood discoloration. discoloration before death occuring on the outside of the blood vascular system; ecchymosis, hematomea, petechia, Tardieu spots (are pinpoint hemorrhages seen in areas of advance livor mortis.

which immunoglobulin is also called surface immunoglobulin
|
<P> 1 IgD molecules are located on the surface membranes of mature B cells. 2 The heavy chain type in IgD is a delta chain. 3 IgE: Found mostly in saliva and mucus, these antibodies are involved in allergic responses to antigens. 4 The heavy chain type in IgE is an epsilon chain. The antigen-binding site is the area of the antibody that recognizes and binds to the antigen. Photo Credit: Image Credit: Darryl Leja, NHGRI. Antibodies (also called immunoglobulins) are specialized proteins that travel thorough the blood stream and are found in bodily fluids. They are utilized by the immune system to identify and defend against foreign intruders to the body <P> An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shape protein produced by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to identify and neutralize pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. The antibody recognizes a unique molecule of the harmful agent, called an antigen, via the variable region. The membrane-bound form of an antibody may be called a surface immunoglobulin (sIg) or a membrane immunoglobulin (mIg). It is part of the B cell receptor (BCR), which allows a B cell to detect when a specific antigen is present in the body and triggers B cell activation. <P> an·ti·bod·y. A protein produced in the blood or tissues in response to the presence of a specific foreign antigen. Antibodies provide immunity against certain microorganisms and toxins by binding with them and often by deactivating them. Also called immunoglobulin. <P> Though strictly speaking, an antibody is not the same as an immunoglobulin; B cells can produce two types of immunoglobulins-surface immunoglobulins, which are B cell receptors; and secreted immunoglobulins, which are antibodies. So antibodies are one of two classes of immunoglobulins. The membrane-bound form of an antibody may be called a surface immunoglobulin (sIg) or a membrane immunoglobulin (mIg). It is part of the B cell receptor (BCR), which allows a B cell to detect when a specific antigen is present in the body and triggers B cell activation. <P> In response to specific antigens, immunoglobulins are formed in the bone marrow, spleen, and all lymphoid tissues except the thymus. Classes of immunoglobulins are IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM. Also called immune serum globulin. See also antibody, antigen, immunity. IgG is the most abundant of the five classes of immunoglobulins, representing about 80% of serum immunoglobulin protein. It is the major antibody in the secondary humoral response of immunity, serves to activate the complement system, and is frequently involved in opsonization. <P> What It Is. An immunoglobulin test measures the level of certain immunoglobulins, or antibodies, in the blood. Antibodies are proteins made by the immune system to fight antigens, such as bacteria, viruses, and toxins. The body makes different immunoglobulins to combat different antigens. 1 Immunoglobulin M (IgM) , which is found mainly in the blood and lymph fluid, is the first antibody to be made by the body to fight a new infection. 2 Immunoglobulin E (IgE) , which is associated mainly with allergic reactions (when the immune system overreacts to environmental antigens such as pollen or pet dander). <P> Definition: Immunoglobulin (IgE) Immunoglobulin E (IgE) is a type of protein in the body called an antibody. Blood Test: Immunoglobulin E (IgE) The immunoglobulin E (IgE) test is often performed as part of an initial screen for allergies. 1 Immunoglobulin M (IgM) , which is found mainly in the blood and lymph fluid, is the first antibody to be made by the body to fight a new infection. 2 Immunoglobulin E (IgE) , which is associated mainly with allergic reactions (when the immune system overreacts to environmental antigens such as pollen or pet dander). <P> Antibodies recognize specific antigens by identifying certain areas on the surface of the antigen known as antigenic determinants. Once the specific antigenic determinant is recognized, the antibody will bind to the determinant. The antigen is tagged as an intruder and labeled for destruction by other immune cells. The antigen-binding site is the area of the antibody that recognizes and binds to the antigen. Photo Credit: Image Credit: Darryl Leja, NHGRI.

what is Bromelain and what is its function
|
<P> Overview. Bromelain is a mixture of enzymes found in pineapples (Ananas comosus) that digest protein (proteolytic). Pineapple has been used for centuries in Central and South America to treat indigestion and reduce inflammation. <P> Pineapple-image from Shutterstock. Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme (an enzyme that digests proteins) found in fresh pineapple. It is often used to treat muscle injuries and as a digestive aid. ROLE IN ANTI-AGING: Bromelain is a natural anticoagulant that works by breaking down the blood-clotting protein fibrin. Bromelain aids digestion by enhancing the effects of the digestive enzymes trypsin and pepin. It can also help to prevent heartburn by ease diarrhea, if either are caused by a deficiency of digestive enzymes. Bromelain supplements often contain a plant pigment called quercetin. <P> Bromelain is a protein extract derived from the stems of pineapples, although it exists in all parts of the fresh plant and fruit. The extract has a history of folk medicine use. As a culinary ingredient, it may be used as a meat tenderizer. Along with papain, bromelain is one of the most popular proteases to use for meat tenderizing. Bromelain is sold in a powdered form, which is combined with a marinade, or directly sprinkled on the uncooked meat. <P> Bromelain extract is a mixture of protein-digesting (proteolytic) enzymes or proteases, and several other substances in smaller quantities. The proteolytic enzymes are sulfhydryl proteases; a free sulfhydryl group of a cysteine amino acid side chain is required for function. Along with papain, bromelain is one of the most popular proteases to use for meat tenderizing. Bromelain is sold in a powdered form, which is combined with a marinade, or directly sprinkled on the uncooked meat. <P> Bromelain seems to cause the body to produce substances that fight pain and swelling (inflammation). Bromelain also contains chemicals that interfere with the growth of tumor cells and slow blood clotting. Bromelain is POSSIBLY SAFE for most people when taken in appropriate amounts. Bromelain may cause some side effects, such as diarrhea and stomach and intestinal discomfort. Bromelain may also cause allergic reactions, especially in people who have other allergies. <P> Share. Bromelain is a protein-digesting (proteolytic) enzyme complex found in the fruit and, in higher concentrations, in the stem of the pineapple (Ananas comosus). It is able to hydrolyze or break down a wide variety of protein types in a range of both acid and alkaline environments. Many of bromelain’s benefits; however, are actually based on absorption of the intact enzyme in the small intestine; it is this absorption makes possible its systemic effects such as reducing redness. <P> Bromelain: Enemy of Proteins Everywhere. Columbus first laid eyes on a pineapple in 1493, although pineapple wasn't native to the Caribbean islands where they met [source: Kew ]. Though commonly thought of as a traditional Hawaiian food, the sweet, spiky fruit originally hails from Brazil. They discovered that bromelain is quite effective at dividing proteins such as the collagen in steak, as well as in your tongue. Although bromelain is found in every part of the pineapple, it's most plentiful in the stem. <P> Some people use a product (Phlogenzym) for arthritis (osteoarthritis) that combines bromelain with trypsin (a protein) and rutin (a substance found in buckwheat). Bromelain used in this way seems to reduce pain and improve knee function in people with arthritis. Bromelain is POSSIBLY SAFE for most people when taken in appropriate amounts. Bromelain may cause some side effects, such as diarrhea and stomach and intestinal discomfort. Bromelain may also cause allergic reactions, especially in people who have other allergies.

how does the defrost cycle work on a refrigerator
|
<P> If your refrigerator is stuck in a defrost cycle the timer will be the reason. It's the only part that controls the defrost system as to when it goes into a defrost and out of defrost. It's a simple procedure to manually advance it out of defrost. First unplug the unit from the wall outlet. The refrigerator does have a defrost timer that causes the unit to go into a defrost cycle every 10 hours of cumulative compressor run time. The defrost cycle will normally take about 30 minutes. <P> During the cooling mode, the defrost timer closes a contact to the compressor circuit so it will run. The circuit to the defrost heater is open. While in this mode, the thermostat (a.k.a. cold control) cycles the compressor and fan motors on and off to maintain an appropriate temperature. How does a frost free refrigerator's defrost system work? There are many separate components in a refrigerator's defrost system that must work in concert for a frost free system to work properly. We will attempt to explain the workings using simplified electrical schematics. <P> Some defrost timers are an accumulative run timer, which means when the refrigerator is off the defrost timer is off and not running, when the refrigerator is running the defrost timer is running. If the timer in this case is a 10 hr timer, it will cycle into a defrost when the compressor has been running for 10 hrs. <P> Given your symptoms, it is likely that the defrost timer has failed. The refrigerator does have a defrost timer that causes the unit to go into a defrost cycle every 10 hours of cumulative compressor run time. The defrost cycle will normally take about 30 minutes. <P> Auto-defrost, automatic defrost or self-defrosting is a technique which regularly defrosts the evaporator in a refrigerator or freezer. Appliances using this technique are often called frost free, frostless or no-frost. <P> The timer remains in the defrost cycle until the timer advances back to the cooling mode. Since the limit switch is open, the heaters are no longer on for the rest of the cycle. When the timer again advances back into the cooling mode, the compressor will start to run along with any air circulation fans. How does a frost free refrigerator's defrost system work? There are many separate components in a refrigerator's defrost system that must work in concert for a frost free system to work properly. We will attempt to explain the workings using simplified electrical schematics. <P> How it Works: The defrost control board determines how often to run the defrost cycle. If the board fails, the refrigerator will not go into the defrost cycle. Before replacing the defrost control board, first test the defrost heater and defrost thermostat. If the defrost heater and defrost thermostat are working properly, the defrost control board is likely defective. If the defrost sensor fails to shut off the defrost heater, the fuse will blow in order to shut off the defrost heater. If the defrost sensor fuse blows, the defrost system will not work, and the refrigerator will not defrost. <P> REFRIGERATOR DEFROST CYCLE DIAGNOSIS If you bypassed the Warning & Disclaimer page, please read it now. (Required) NOTE: Most newer refrigerators use electronic devices to control the defrost system. If your refrigerator does not have a defrost timer, do not attempt this diagnosis procedure. <P> Some refrigerators have an Adaptive Defrost Control. This is what makes a refrigerator energy efficient. It varys the length of time it takes the machine to go into defrost. So instead of the energy hogging heater coming on every eight hours, it may be 24 hours, 18 hours, 10.5 hours, who knows. When the refrigerator is in defrost there is a heater that is tied into the evaporator coils inside the freezer that comes on. This heater is behind the rear panel inside the freezer where the evaporator coils are located. <P> A refrigerator's defrost cycle works by turning on a heating element that's integrated into the evaporator coil in the appliance's freezer. The heating element warms the evaporator coil and melts any ice that has accumulated on the coil.

<P> All fluids are not created equal. This Drinking Guide offers expert advice on the best drinks for runners. By Kristen Wolfe Bieler Thursday, August 31, 2006, 12:00 am. As you approach the first water stop along the racecourse, you see sports drink in some of the cups and water in others. <P> You should drink 16 ounces of fluids two hours before the race, either water or a sports drink. After the marathon is over, drink fluids to replace the weight you have lost, two cups for every lb. Sports drinks replenish carbs and electrolytes lost during the race. Low-fat chocolate milk is preferred by some athletes. <P> As a runner it is important to look at the ingredients and make sure that you choose an energy drink that meets your running and fuel needs. It has been proven that caffeine does not greatly enhance performance if at all. <P> As a marathon runner the answer is undoubtedly, yes. In fact in any endurance sport there is almost always a need for some sort of supplemental energy drink. During a marathon you are losing a lot of fluid and not only that but you are offsetting your sodium balance through sweating. <P> Energy Drinks for Runners. There's a lot of discussion about energy drinks in the sports realm and particularly in the field of running. Some could never run another step without their sports drink while others have no faith in them at all. <P> You are probably familiar with the most common energy drinks such as 5 Hour Energy, Red Bull, and Monster however even soda pops can be classified as an energy drink with the high levels of caffeine that it contains. <P> RELATED: Effective Fueling Strategies For Runners. Nevertheless, some energy drinks may enhance exercise performance, just as sports drinks do. That’s because the water and carbs they provide are better than nothing, and also because they contain caffeine, which is ergogenic. <P> Long answer to a short question. Ideally, you would run with one source of fuel that addresses all of the above takeaways. Unfortunately, there is no energy drink or running energy source does it all in terms of maintaining hydration balance and fueling your body. <P> Runner after workout holding a energy drink Photo Credit vladans/iStock/Getty Images.

Reduced to its essence the United States is a federal republic, a federation of states with a republican form of government, i.e., a representative democracy, where the citizens elect their representatives for fixed terms of office. <P> The United States is a federal constitutional republic, in which the President of the United States (the head of state and head of government), Congress, and judiciary share powers reserved to the national government, and the federal government shares sovereignty with the state governments. The federal government's layout is explained in the Constitution. Two political parties, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, have dominated American politics since the American Civil War, although there are also smaller parties like the Libertarian Party, the Green Party, and the Constitution Party. <P> However, as with other political systems, there are different types of monarchies. The type that many of us think of as common is the absolute monarchy, in which the monarch truly has the ultimate say in matters of government. However, most monarchies in political systems today do not follow this method. One of the more common types of dictatorship is the military dictatorship, in which a military organization governs, running the political system. Sometimes, the military just exerts a great deal of pressure on the government, running the country de facto. <P> Confidence votes 262K. The political system that the United States has is known as a constitutional republic. The President of the US, Congress, and the judiciary share powers that is reserved to the national government. The federal government also shares sovereignty with the state governments. <P> When we speak of political systems, it’s difficult to determine what the most common types are. After all, many political systems are similar, or have similar roots. Many countries actually have republics of some kind — variants of democracy. One of the more common types of dictatorship is the military dictatorship, in which a military organization governs, running the political system. Sometimes, the military just exerts a great deal of pressure on the government, running the country de facto. <P> The modern political party system in the United States is a two-party system dominated by the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. These two parties have won every United States presidential election since 1852 and have controlled the United States Congress since 1856. The federal government's layout is explained in the Constitution. Two political parties, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, have dominated American politics since the American Civil War, although there are also smaller parties like the Libertarian Party, the Green Party, and the Constitution Party. <P> Posted on. (Answer #1). The United States has a mixed economy. It is a combination of a free market economy and a command economy. Compared with most other countries around the world, it is more towards a free market economy and less towards a command economy. In most ways, the US has a market economy. <P> Most political systems are a mixture of these types. The United States comprises more a libertarian system, but increasingly is oriented in the totalitarian direction as the modern welfare state and the political elites, with their mixed present and future goals, intervene in the activities of all groups. <P> In the United States, people also vote on public policies and for the political leaders who set policies that have major economic effects. Some of the most important organizations in the U.S. economy are businesses that produce and distribute goods and services to consumers. For the most part, the United States has a market economy in which individual producers and consumers determine the kinds of goods and services produced and the prices of those products. The most basic economic institution in market economies is the system of markets in which goods and services are bought and sold.

average surface temperature of neptune
|
<P> However, the distance to Neptune from the sun is enormous--on average, the planet is 2.8 billion miles (4.5 billion kilometers) from the heat-giving star. As a result, the pole tipped toward the sun reaches higher temperatures than the rest of the planet for a quarter of a Neptunian year, or for about 40 Earth-years. Temperature and pressure shift at different heights. The average temperature at the top of the cloud tops is minus 346 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 210 degrees Celsius). Like the other gas giants, the enormous planet lacks a solid surface. <P> The seventh planet from the sun, Uranus has the coldest atmosphere of any of the planets in the solar system, even though it is not the most distant. Despite the fact that its equator faces away from the sun, the temperature distribution on Uranus is much like other planets, with a warmer equator and cooler poles. <P> Although Neptune lies half again as far from the Sun as Uranus, and receives only 40% its amount of sunlight, the two planets' surface temperatures are roughly equal. The upper regions of Neptune's troposphere reach a low temperature of 51.8 K (−221.3 °C). <P> Unlike the terrestrial planets, Neptune and the other gas giants still hold much of the atmosphere they had at their formation. Temperature and pressure shift at different heights. The average temperature at the top of the cloud tops is minus 346 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 210 degrees Celsius). Like the other gas giants, the enormous planet lacks a solid surface. Instead, the gas stretches down to the water-ammonia ocean that makes up the planet's mantle. Scientists have defined the surface of Neptune as the region where the surface pressure is equivalent to the pressure on Earth at sea level. The temperature at this surface is approximately minus 346 F (minus 201 C) <P> 1 Neptune is the furthest planet from the sun and the fourth largest. 2 It has a diameter of 30,775 miles (49,528 km) which is four times larger than Earth. 3 Neptune is 30 times further away from the sun than Earth is. 4 The dwarf planet Pluto moves inside Neptune's orbit every 248 years, for periods of 20 years. <P> In the paper, Orton and his colleagues report that the temperature at Neptune's south pole is hotter than anywhere else on the planet by about 10 degrees Celsius (18 degrees Fahrenheit). The average temperature on Neptune is about minus 200 degrees Celsius (minus 392 degrees Fahrenheit). Neptune, the farthest known planet of our solar system, is located about 30 times farther away from the sun than Earth is. <P> Temperatures. As it's 2.8 billion miles from the sun, about 30 times as far as Earth, Neptune gets little sunlight. The average surface temperature is about --200 degrees Celsius. However, it has an internal source of heat, thought to be from radioactive minerals deep in the planet. At Neptune's core, the temperature goes to 7,000 degrees Celsius. <P> It is also one of the coldest planets in the solar system. Neptune s temperature can be as low as 55 Kelvin (-218 degrees Celsius). The average temperature of Neptune is about 73 Kelvin (-200 Celsius). However, at the South Pole of Neptune the temperature is about -10 degrees Celsius warmer than the rest of the planet. The South Pole is warmer due to its exposure to the sun. <P> According to scientists, the surface of Neptune is one of the coldest places in the Solar System. At its surface, where the clouds of the planet touch space, the temperature of Neptune can dip down to 55 Kelvin. That’s -218 degrees Celsius. Neptune and its Great Dark Spot. Image credit: NASA/JPL. The average temperature of Neptune is 73 K (-200 Celsius). But one strange anomaly is the planet’s south pole, which is 10 degrees warmer than the rest of planet. This “hot spot” occurs because Neptune’s south pole is currently exposed to the Sun. <P> Neptune has the wildest and strangest weather in the entire Solar System. It has huge storms with extremely high winds. Its atmosphere has dark spots which come and go, and bright cirrus-like clouds which change rapidly. Neptune has an average temperature of -353 Fahrenheit (-214 Celsius). On Earth sunlight drives our weather, but Neptune is so far away that it receives a thousand times less sunlight than Earth does. How Neptune gets the energy for such intense weather is still a mystery. 1 Javascript must be enabled to use Cool Cosmos.

who are at risk for taking drugs
|
<P> Addiction is defined as a chronic, relapsing brain disease that is characterized by compulsive drug seeking and use, despite harmful consequences. † It is considered a brain disease because drugs change the brain—they change its structure and how it works. As with any other disease, vulnerability to addiction differs from person to person, and no single factor determines whether a person will become addicted to drugs. In general, the more risk factors a person has, the greater the chance that taking drugs will lead to abuse and addiction. Protective factors, on the other hand, reduce a person’s risk of developing addiction. Risk and protective factors may be either environmental (such as conditions at home, at school, and in the neighborhood) or biological (for instance, a person’s genes, their stage of development, and even their gender or ethnicity) <P> Even occasional alcohol use by a teen increases the risk for future alcohol and drug problems. Even casual use of certain drugs can cause severe health problems, such as an overdose or brain damage. Many illegal drugs today are made in home labs, so they can vary greatly in strength. Teens tend to try new things and take risks, so they may take drugs or drink alcohol because it seems exciting. Teens with family members who have problems with alcohol or other drugs are more likely to have serious substance abuse problems. <P> Consider the long-term effects. If you are taking drugs, it is possible you believe that you can manage the effects of the drugs and that you can deal with the impact it has on your life. Taking drugs might make you feel good, and there may not even appear to be any immediate consequences to taking the drug. Making an informed decision. When making a decision about whether to take drugs it is important for you to know the facts about the drug you choose, and understand the risks related to taking that drug. Feeling confused about whether or not taking drugs is the right choice for you is not unusual. <P> 1 Drug addiction is more common in some families and likely involves genetic predisposition. 2 If you have a blood relative, such as a parent or sibling, with alcohol or drug problems, you're at greater risk of developing a drug addiction. 3 Being male. 4 Men are more likely to have problems with drugs than women are. However, certain factors can affect the likelihood and speed of developing an addiction: 1 Family history of addiction. 2 Being male. 3 Having another mental health disorder. 4 Peer pressure. 5 Lack of family involvement. 6 Anxiety, depression and loneliness. 7 Taking a highly addictive drug. 8 Causes. 9 Complications. <P> Research has established that some of the risk for addiction to both drugs and alcohol is inherited. Children of alcoholics are 50 to 60 percent more likely to develop alcohol use disorders than people in the general population (4). Similarly, children of parents who abuse illicit drugs may be 45 to 79 percent more likely to do so themselves than the general public (5–7). This suggests that some of the risk factors for alcohol and other drug use are rooted in genetics, though studies of specific families have not proven a genetic contribution. <P> If you're one of the 44 million Americans at risk for osteoporosis—a disease in which bones become weak and are more likely to break—you may be taking bisphosphonates. This class of drugs has been successfully used since 1995 to slow or inhibit the loss of bone mass. <P> These adverse effects include side effects, drug-drug interactions, food-drug interactions, and allergic reactions. It is best to be aware of the risks so you know how to avoid them. Certain situations put you at higher risk for adverse effects. Because the possible adverse effects differ from 1 OTC medicine to another, it’s best to carefully read the drug facts label of any OTC medicine so you know what to expect. OTC medicines have a low risk of adverse effects when used occasionally and properly by adults who are generally healthy. However, they can pose greater risks for some people, including very young children, older adults, and people taking more than 1 type of medicine. <P> 1 If you have a blood relative, such as a parent or sibling, with alcohol or drug problems, you're at greater risk of developing a drug addiction. 2 Being male. 3 Men are more likely to have problems with drugs than women are. 4 However, progression of addictive disorders is known to be faster in females. However, certain factors can affect the likelihood and speed of developing an addiction: 1 Family history of addiction. 2 Being male. 3 Having another mental health disorder. 4 Peer pressure. 5 Lack of family involvement. 6 Anxiety, depression and loneliness. 7 Taking a highly addictive drug. 8 Causes. 9 Complications.

what elements does nickel have an unstable reaction with
|
<P> Sources. Nickel is found as a constituent in most meteorites and often serves as one of the criteria for distinguishing a meteorite from other minerals. Iron meteorites, or siderites, may contain iron alloyed with from 5 percent to nearly 20 percent nickel. <P> Uses. Nickel resists corrosion and is used to plate other metals to protect them. It is, however, mainly used in making alloys such as stainless steel. Nichrome is an alloy of nickel and chromium with small amounts of silicon, manganese and iron. <P> Nickel-61 is the only stable isotope of nickel with a nuclear spin (I = 3/2), which makes it useful for studies by EPR spectroscopy. Nickel-62 has the highest binding energy per nucleon of any isotope for any element, when including the electron shell in the calculation. 58 Ni may decay by double beta-plus decay to 58 Fe. 26 radioisotopes have been characterised with the most stable being 59Ni with a half-life of 76,000 years, 63Ni with a half-life of 100.1 years, and 56Ni with a half-life of 6.077 days. <P> Nickel metal does react with fluorine gas, F 2, but only slowly. This makes nickel an important metal for containers of fluorine. The dichloride, NiCl 2, dibromide, NiBr 2, and diiodide, NiI 2, are formed in the reactions of nickel metal and chlorine, Cl 2, bromine, Br 2, or iodine, I 2. Reaction of nickel with air. Nickel metal does not react with air under ambient conditions. Finely divided nickel metal reacts readily with air and in this form may be pyrophoric. At higher temperatures, the reaction between nickel metal and oxygen appears not to proceed to completion but gives some nickel(II) oxide <P> The isotopes of nickel range in atomic weight from 48Ni to 78Ni. Nickel-48, discovered in 1999, is the most neutron-poor nickel isotope known. With 28 protons and 20 neutrons 48Ni is doubly magic (like 208Pb) and therefore unusually stable. 58 Ni may decay by double beta-plus decay to 58 Fe. 26 radioisotopes have been characterised with the most stable being 59Ni with a half-life of 76,000 years, 63Ni with a half-life of 100.1 years, and 56Ni with a half-life of 6.077 days. <P> Because of nickel's slow rate of oxidation at room temperature, it is considered corrosion-resistant. Historically, this has led to its use for plating metals such as iron and brass, coating chemistry equipment, and manufacturing certain alloys that retain a high silvery polish, such as German silver. As a compound, nickel has a number of niche chemical manufacturing uses, such as a catalyst for hydrogenation. Enzymes of some microorganisms and plants contain nickel as an active site, which makes the metal an essential nutrient for them. <P> Nickel is present in metallic meteorites and so has been in use since ancient times. Artifacts made from metallic meteorites have been found dating from as early as 5000 BC – for example beads in graves in Egypt. (1). Iron is the most abundant element in metallic meteorites, followed by nickel. It was not until the 1750s that nickel was discovered to be an element. In the 1600s, a dark red ore, often with a green coating, had been a source of irritation for copper miners in Saxony, Germany. They believed the dark red substance was an ore of copper, but they had been unable to extract any copper from it. <P> 1 Nickel is 100 times more concentrated below Earth’s crust than in it. 2 Nickel is believed to be the second most abundant element in the earth’s core, with iron most abundant by a large margin. 3 Nickel is the main metal in Mu-metal, which has the fascinating property of magnetic shielding. It was not until the 1750s that nickel was discovered to be an element. In the 1600s, a dark red ore, often with a green coating, had been a source of irritation for copper miners in Saxony, Germany. They believed the dark red substance was an ore of copper, but they had been unable to extract any copper from it. <P> The use of nickel (as a natural meteoric nickel–iron alloy) has been traced as far back as 3500 BCE. Nickel was first isolated and classified as a chemical element in 1751 by Axel Fredrik Cronstedt, who initially mistook its ore for a copper mineral. As a compound, nickel has a number of niche chemical manufacturing uses, such as a catalyst for hydrogenation. Enzymes of some microorganisms and plants contain nickel as an active site, which makes the metal an essential nutrient for them.

how to prepare base for a shed
|
<P> The slab should be the exact dimension of your shed base minus 3/4 inch on all sides to allow the shed to overhang the slab. Add 6 inches to all sides of the dimensions where the slab will be and dig down 4 to 6 inches, depending upon the softness of the soil. The softer the soil, the deeper the hole should be. Using a mechanical compactor tamp the ground firmly, to make it level. Use a 4-inch thick layer of gravel or substrate. <P> http://countrylifeprojects.com/shedplan/ - All 15 How To Build a Shed Step by Step videos, as well as other projects and videos, can be viewed on our website for free.

<P> A pigs testicles are just called testicles. If you are talking about testicles prepared for humans to eat, they are called Rocky Mountain oysters, the same name used for b … ull calves and sheep. Many male sheep may mate with the same female sheep when she is in heat. Therefore the male that deposites more sperm has a better chance of having his sperm fertilize the egg … and pass on his particular genetic information. Larger testicles produce more sperm. 9 people found this useful <P> Testosterone or no, for the cowboy culture in the American West in both centuries past and today, livestock testicle consumption is mainly just another part of the animal to eat. In addition to calf testicles, lamb testicles, frequently called “lamb fries” are also eaten. Even turkey testicles are a relatively common meal item. Logistically and economically, eating testicles makes sense on the ranch. <P> Answered by The Community. Making the world better, one answer at a time. Sheep 'balls are called testicles; as are bovine balls and human balls.

You can use either lamb or goat testicles. Khasia Kapura or Kapoora refers to testicles. In United States, the lamb testicles are normally called 'lamb fry'. 'Rocky Mountain oysters' is a common name for bull testicles. Choose testicles from young lamb or baby goat (kid). <P> Sheep are most likely descended from the wild mouflon of Europe and Asia. One of the earliest animals to be domesticated for agricultural purposes, sheep are raised for fleece, meat (lamb, hogget or mutton) and milk. A sheep's wool is the most widely used animal fiber, and is usually harvested by shearing. Ovine meat is called lamb when from younger animals and mutton when from older ones. Use of the word sheep began in Middle English as a derivation of the Old English word scēap; it is both the singular and plural name for the animal. A group of sheep is called a flock, herd or mob. Many other specific terms for the various life stages of sheep exist, generally related to lambing, shearing, and age. <P> Testicles are known by a wide variety of euphemisms, including 'stones', 'mountain oysters ', ' prairie oysters', and so on. Lamb testicles in particular are often called ' lamb fries ' or simply fries (though that may also refer to other organ meats). Bulls testicle stew (right) in Austria. The testicles of calves, lambs, roosters, turkeys, and other animals are eaten in many parts of the world, under a wide variety of euphemistic culinary names. <P> Best Answer: Well, cows are females, so no testicles. ^_^ I have heard of a bull's testicles being called Rocky mountain oysters.. My dad was tricked into eating them... They are also called calf fries and huevos de toro.. Seems like, so far as I can find, Rocky Mountain Oysters refers to bulls, pigs, turkeys, sheep, you name it. From a sheep, sometimes lamb fries. From a bull, calf fries. So I'd guess you could also say turkey fries. <P> They are sometimes called Rocky Mountain Oysters. Why anyone would eat these is beyond me. Rocky Mountain oysters are sliced and breaded and fried bull testicles. Many male sheep may mate with the same female sheep when she is in heat.

<P> 242,353 Helpful Votes. 191 Followers. A. The kidneys are located on either side of the body underneath the diaphragm near the lower back. Each kidney is connected to the bladder in the pelvis by ureters (long tube-like structures) that drain the urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Urine stored in the bladder is excreted from the body through the urethra. <P> The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs (actually resembling kidney beans) that are located in the middle of the back, with one on each side of the spine. Envision two fist-sized organs lying just beneath the rib cage but toward the back, with other organs such as the stomach, liver and large intestine in front of them. <P> Your kidneys are 2 reddish, bean-shaped organs located on either side of your spine in the middle of your back. Their main job is to filter your blood. Each kidney contains about a million tiny filters that can process around 40 gallons of fluid every day—about enough to fill a house’s hot water heater. <P> Kidney pain facts. 1 The function and purpose of the kidneys are to remove excess fluid and waste products from the body. 2 The kidneys are located in the upper abdominal area against the back muscles on both the left and right side of the body. 1 <P> All rights reserved. The kidneys are a pair of organs located in the back of the abdomen. Each kidney is about 4 or 5 inches long -- about the size of a fist. The kidneys' function are to filter the blood. All the blood in our bodies passes through the kidneys several times a day. The kidneys remove wastes, control the body's fluid balance, and regulate the balance of electrolytes. As the kidneys filter blood, they create urine, which collects in the kidneys' pelvis -- funnel-shaped structures that drain down tubes called ureters to the bladder. Each kidney contains around a million units called nephrons, each of which is a microscopic filter for blood. <P> Kidneys are any of the two bean-shaped organs situated just below the rib cages. As you must know, these are excretory organs that filter wastes from the blood and release them from the body. A pain in the kidney region typically arises when there is some ailment or interference in normal activity in the region. They mistake pains in the back or stomach as pain in kidney area. There is also a misconception about the location of the kidneys. Many people believe the kidneys to be located somewhere in their lower abdomen region. Actually, it is placed just below the diaphragm on each side of the body <P> Kidney pain — also called renal pain — refers to pain arising from infection, injury or inflammation of a kidney. You may feel kidney pain as a dull, one-sided ache in your upper back, often accompanied by fever and urinary symptoms. Some people are surprised to learn exactly where the kidneys are located. Your kidneys are located relatively high in your body, under your lower ribs. It's not unusual to attribute back pain or side (flank) pain to your kidneys. But more often than not, your kidneys probably aren't the cause of your back or flank pain. 1 Causes. <P> Kidneys. The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs located on either side of the spine, at the small of the back. The kidneys filter wastes from the blood and help balance water, salt, and mineral levels in the blood. Wastes filtered out of the blood are carried out of the body as urine

what is a machining process
|
<P> Adorable animal families that will make you aww. Machining is a form of manufacturing used to create objects out of metal. During this process, workers cut away materials to alter the appearance and shape of a product. Machining serves as an alternative to other forms of production processes, including molding or casting. <P> Overviews. Machining is a term used to describe a variety of material removal processes in which a cutting tool removes unwanted material from a workpiece to produce the desired shape. The workpiece is typically cut from a larger piece of stock, which is available in a variety of standard shapes, such as flat sheets, solid bars, hollow tubes, and shaped beams. Machining can also be performed on an existing part, such as a casting or forging. <P> Machining is any process in which a cutting tool is used to remove small chips of material from the workpiece (the workpiece is often called the work). To perform the operation, relative motion is required between the tool and the work. There are many kinds of machining operations, each of which is capable of generating a certain part geometry and surface texture. In turning, a cutting tool with a single cutting edge is used to remove material from a rotating workpiece to generate a cylindrical shape. <P> Machining can be a business, a hobby, or both. Much of modern day machining is carried out by computer numerical control (CNC), in which computers are used to control the movement and operation of the mills, lathes, and other cutting machines. There are many kinds of machining operations, each of which is capable of generating a certain part geometry and surface texture. In turning, a cutting tool with a single cutting edge is used to remove material from a rotating workpiece to generate a cylindrical shape. <P> machining. Process such as abrading, cutting, drilling, forming, grinding, and/or shaping of a piece of metal or other material performed by machine tools such as lathes, power saws, and presses. I was really good at machining and would spend most of the day at the machine cutting and drilling a bunch of different stuff. 9 people found this helpful. A company involved in the business of machining often makes parts for automobiles, medical equipment, air craft, or other machinery out of aluminum or steel. <P> Machining is a part of the manufacture of many metal products, but it can also be used on materials such as wood, plastic, ceramic, and composites. A person who specializes in machining is called a machinist. There are many kinds of machining operations, each of which is capable of generating a certain part geometry and surface texture. In turning, a cutting tool with a single cutting edge is used to remove material from a rotating workpiece to generate a cylindrical shape. <P> Turning is an engineering machining process in which a cutting tool, typically a non-rotary tool bit, describes a helical toolpath by moving more or less linearly while the workpiece rotates. The turning processes are typically carried out on a lathe, considered to be the oldest machine tools, and can be of four different types such as straight turning, taper turning, profiling or external grooving. <P> Machining.

how long thawed lasagna good for
|
<P> Thawing frozen lasagna. by KaREN GRAVES. (Fayetteville, AR). I am going to freeze several pans of lasagna and am not sure how long to allow it to thaw before cooking or heating. <P> I've never thawed it before. 350 is my temp choice...keep it covered with foil until the last 10 -15 minutes. Remove the foil so the cheese can brown up a little..I always add some more parm on top at that time. Should take about an hour maybe an hour and 15 minutes give or take. Thawed, probably 45 minutes. <P> If you thaw, thaw in fridge and give it at least a full 24 hours to thaw. Thawed, cook for 45 min to an hour. But you can also cook straight from frozen. Give yourself two hours just in case. It will take at least an hour and a half. Good Morning Ladies! So I made a tray (9x13) of lasagna last Saturday to bake it on Sunday, but then plans changed, and it stayed in the fridge till Monday afternoon, and then I put it in the freezer. <P> 1 Always label and date frozen food so that you know how long it has been frozen. 2 Lasagna is easier to cut into individual size portions when it is cold. 3 To heat individual portions, place the wrapped lasagna in a microwave on high for 3 minutes. 4 Pierce the plastic with a knife to let steam out. When you make lasagna and freeze it for later, you'll have a homemade, healthy meal on hand whenever you need it. You can freeze lasagna baked or unbaked, but you'll need to thaw it overnight before cooking it to serve. <P> How long does lasagna last? Lasagna, although there are many variations, is most often made with tomato sauce, ground beef, lasagna noodles or pasta and ricotta cheese. The shelf life of lasagna depends on a variety of factors, such as possibly a best by date, the preparation method and how the lasagna was stored. <P> For our lasagne size and oven conditions, the total time it takes to cook from frozen in a cold oven is about 100 minutes (1 hour 40 min) covered with foil plus 5 uncovered. This may seem like a long time but I am pleased to report that it turned out just as perfect as the freshly prepared batch. <P> I can't believe how many people have lasagna in their weekend plans! I've got mine in the fridge defrosting, I guess it never occurred to me to cook it from frozen. :) I usually thaw lasagna out and cook it for about 45-50 minutes with the last 15 or so uncovered so the top can brown a bit. 350 is my temp choice...keep it covered with foil until the last 10 -15 minutes. Remove the foil so the cheese can brown up a little..I always add some more parm on top at that time. Should take about an hour maybe an hour and 15 minutes give or take. Thawed, probably 45 minutes. <P> Since it's thawed, you won't have to cook it as long as the package indicates. Cut about 20 minutes from the cooking time and check it. If it isn't to your liking, put it back in for another 10 minutes, or so. Cheryl G · 7 years ago. You're supposed to be them in the microwave or oven when they are still frozen. So I'm not sure how long for thawed. Just put it in and check on it in about 10 minutes.

<P> 1 According to WHO, sub-Saharan Africa is the most affected region, with 24.7 million people living with HIV in 2013. 2 Seventy-one percent of all people who are living with HIV in the world live in this region. 3 HIV is the world’s leading infectious killer. The Global HIV/AIDS Epidemic. HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, is one of the world’s most serious health and development challenges: 1 According to the World Health Organization (WHO) , <P> (July 2002) Despite the fact that sub-Saharan Africa contains only about 11 percent of the Earth's population, the region is the world's epicenter of HIV/AIDS. The numbers are daunting. Adult HIV prevalence is 1.2 percent worldwide (0.6 percent in North America), but it is 9.0 percent in sub-Saharan Africa. UNAIDS estimates that at the end of 2001, there were 40 million people living with HIV/AIDS, 28.5 million of them from sub-Saharan African. <P> Today the region continues to be the epicentre of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, with 48 per cent of the world’s new HIV infections among adults, 55 per cent among children, and 48 per cent of AIDS-related deaths [1]. The Southern Africa sub-region, in particular, experiences the most severe HIV epidemics in the world. Nine countries-Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia and Zimbabwe-have adult HIV prevalence rates of over 10 per cent. <P> As of 2012, approximately 35.3 million people are living with HIV globally. HIV/AIDS is considered a pandemic —a disease outbreak which is present over a large area and is actively spreading. Genetic research indicates that HIV originated in west-central Africa during the late 19th or early 20th century. Common methods of HIV/AIDS prevention include encouraging and practicing safe sex, needle-exchange programs, and treating those who are infected. There is no cure or vaccine; however, antiretroviral treatment can slow the course of the disease and may lead to a near-normal life expectancy. <P> 1 The vast majority of people living with HIV are in low-and middle-income countries. 2 According to WHO, sub-Saharan Africa is the most affected region, with 24.7 million people living with HIV in 2013. 3 Seventy-one percent of all people who are living with HIV in the world live in this region. The Global HIV/AIDS Epidemic. HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, is one of the world’s most serious health and development challenges: 1 According to the World Health Organization (WHO) , <P> AIDS in Africa. The prevalence of HIV/AIDS is highest in Southern Africa. HIV/AIDS in Africa is one of the most important global public health issues of our time, and perhaps, in the history of mankind. In Africa, AIDS is one of the top causes of death. <P> Globally, 68 percent of all people who have HIV live in this region. About 76 percent of all HIV-positive women in the world live in this region. Sixty percent of people living with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa are women and girls. Prevention efforts and treatment are helping to stabilize the global HIV/AIDS epidemic. But progress is uneven. Infection rates are still unacceptably high, and women in many parts of the world are increasingly becoming infected with HIV/AIDS. <P> Nearly all Africans who have HIV eventually die from AIDS-related illnesses, most within 10 years of infection. 1 In most of the developing world, tuberculosis is the most common opportunistic infection for people living with HIV/AIDS. 2. <P> Human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is a spectrum of conditions caused by infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Following initial infection, a person may experience a brief period of influenza-like illness. Common methods of HIV/AIDS prevention include encouraging and practicing safe sex, needle-exchange programs, and treating those who are infected. There is no cure or vaccine; however, antiretroviral treatment can slow the course of the disease and may lead to a near-normal life expectancy. <P> Southern Africa is the worst affected region on the continent. As of 2011, HIV has infected at least 10 percent of the population in Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. The number of AIDS-related deaths in Sub-Saharan Africa in 2011 was 33 percent less than the number in 2005. The number of new HIV infections in Sub-Saharan Africa in 2011 was 25 percent less than the number in 2001.

<P> Best Answer: Before giving examples of legally binding contract terms and conditions, it is worth pointing out that a UK court will not normally decide that a contract exists unless both parties intend it to be legally binding. In law, it generally assumed that commercial agreements are intended <P> A business contract is a legally binding agreement between two or more parties to do or not to do certain things. For example, a business contract could be for the sale of goods or supply of services at a certain price. <P> Another examples of when an agreement will not constitute a legally binding contract is when its terms are not sufficiently certain. <P> Common legal phrase indicating that an agreement has been consciously made, and certain actions are now either required or prohibited. For example, a lease for an apartment is legally binding, because upon signing the document, the lessor and the lessee are agreeing to a number of conditions. <P> 2. The legal parts of a contract are known as ‘terms’. An employer should make clear which parts of a contract are legally binding. Contract terms could be: 1 in a written contract, or similar document like a written statement of employment. 2 verbally agreed. 3 in an employee handbook or on a company notice board. 4 in an offer letter from the employer.

<P> Water that is saline contains significant amounts (referred to as concentrations) of dissolved salts, the most common being the salt we all know so well—sodium chloride (NaCl). In this case, the concentration is the amount (by weight) of salt in water, as expressed in parts per million (ppm). <P> In medicine, saline (also saline solution) is a general phrase referring to a sterile solution of sodium chloride (NaCl, more commonly known as table salt) in water, but is only sterile when it is to be placed parenterally (such as intravenously); otherwise, a saline solution is a salt water solution. The solution is 9 grams of sodium chloride (NaCl) dissolved in water, to a total volume of 1000 ml (weight per unit volume(w/v)). The mass of 1 millilitre of normal saline is 1.0046 gram at 22 °C. <P> Saline solution refers to a salt solution, which you can prepare yourself using readily available materials. The solution can be used as a disinfectant, sterile rinse, or for labwork. This recipe is for a salt solution that is normal, which means it is the same concentration or isotonic to body fluids. The salt in saline solution discourages bacterial growth while rinsing away contaminants. Prepare the Saline Solution. As a mouth rinse, you can simply dissolve the salt into very warm water. You may even wish to add a teaspoon of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate). For a sterile solution, dissolve the salt in boiling water. <P> Saline solution is a mixture of sodium chloride, or salt, and sterile water. It is available in several concentrations, but the most common one is 0.9% sodium chloride in water. It's typically used for medical purposes, and is found in intravenous (IV) drips, contact lens solution, and nasal irrigation sprays. Other Uses. Besides its medical uses, saline solution is also used in chemistry experiments, where it can serve as a buffer or be used to maintain the pH of a solution or cell culture. In this context, the mixture often contains other ingredients, like potassium, calcium, or magnesium. <P> saline. salty; of the nature of a salt. saline solution a solution of salt (sodium chloride) in purified water. See also physiologic saline solution.a solution of salt (sodium chloride) in purified water. Physiological saline solution is a 0.9% solution of sodium chloride and water and is isotonic, i.e. of the same osmotic pressure as blood serum. saline water poisoning. see sodium chloride <P> Sodium Chloride (sodium chloride (sodium chloride injection) injection) Injection, USP is a sterile, nonpyrogenic solution for fluid and electrolyte replenishment in single dose containers for intravenous administration. It contains no antimicrobial agents. The nominal pH is 5.5 (4.5 to 7.0). <P> Water salinity diagram. Saline water is water that contains a significant concentration of dissolved salts (mainly NaCl) and is commonly known as salt water. The salt concentration is usually expressed in parts per thousand (permille, ‰) or parts per million (ppm). <P> As an adjective, saline means salty, containing salt.. As a noun saline is a salt solution, often adjusted to the normal salinity of the human body. Salt, in medicine, is referring to sodium chloride. Sodium chloride is common table salt and the salt concentrated in the earth and in sea water. Certain concentrations of both sodium and chloride in the blood are essential for normal body functions. Saline solutions are commonly used in medicine as fluid replacements to treat or prevent dehydration. <P> If, however, you are cleaning a wound or want to use the saline solution for your eyes, it's important to use pure ingredients and maintain sterile conditions. 1 salt. 2 You can use salt from the grocery store. 3 water. 4 Use distilled water or reverse osmosis purified water over ordinary tap water. Prepare the Saline Solution. As a mouth rinse, you can simply dissolve the salt into very warm water. You may even wish to add a teaspoon of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate). For a sterile solution, dissolve the salt in boiling water. <P> Normal saline is a sterile mixture of salt and water. It is called normal because its salt concentration is similar to tears, blood, and other body fluids (0.9% saline). It is also called isotonic solution. Normal saline is soothing and will not burn or sting when applied.
