how long does a employer have to respond to unemployment claim
|
<P> Claim Notice. You will know if an employee files a claim for unemployment insurance when you receive the claim form from your state's department of labor or similar entity. The claim notice will specify how long you have to respond. <P> If you terminated the employee for gross misconduct, you may be able to prevent a claim against your unemployment insurance. In order to successfully dispute an unemployment claim, you need to respond to the claim within your state's statutory time frame, usually 10 to 14 days. <P> 1 DUA sends a request for wage and separation information to all the employers on your claim. 2 Each employer has 10 days to respond. 3 If after 10 days, a response is not received, DUA will contact the employer or you for needed wage information. <P> DUA will take the following steps to process your unemployment claim: 1 DUA sends a request for wage and separation information to all the employers on your claim. 2 Each employer has 10 days to respond. 3 If after 10 days, a response is not received, DUA will contact the employer or you for needed wage information. <P> Response Time. The time an employer has to respond to a notice of unemployment filing varies by state. However, generally, you must submit your response within 10 to 14 days. The DOL usually provides information about when to respond in the notice or on the state's DOL website. <P> Response Time. The response time to dispute an unemployment claim varies by state. In California, you have 10 days from the mailing date of the claim notice. In Texas, you have 14 calendar days from the date of the notice to respond. Federal law requires states to either pay or deny unemployment benefits promptly.

what does the facial nerve do
|
<P> The facial nerve is the seventh cranial nerve, or simply cranial nerve VII. It emerges from the brainstem between the pons and the medulla, controls the muscles of facial expression, and functions in the conveyance of taste sensations from the anterior two-thirds of the tongue and oral cavity. <P> The facial nerve is also known as the seventh cranial nerve (CN7) . This nerve performs two major functions. It conveys some sensory information from the tongue and the interior of the mouth. Specifically, CN7 serves about two-thirds of the tongue's tip. The nerve extends from the brain stem, at the pons and the medulla. <P> The facial nerve is one of the twelve pairs of cranial nerves in the peripheral nervous system. It is the seventh cranial nerve, and so is often referred to as cranial nerve VII or simply CN VII. <P> Bell's palsy is a condition that affects the facial nerve, and therefore the function of the muscles, on one side of the face. The facial nerve is one of the 12 cranial nerves and is given the designation of the 7th cranial nerve (CN VII). <P> The facial nerve, or cranial nerve (CN) VII, is the nerve of facial expression. The pathways of the facial nerve are variable, and knowledge of the key intratemporal and extratemporal landmarks is essential for accurate physical diagnosis and safe and effective surgical intervention in the head and neck. <P> The facial nerve is the seventh of the twelve cranial nerves. Everyone has two facial nerves, one for each side of the face. The facial nerve travels with the hearing nerve (the eighth cranial nerve) as it travels in and around the structures of the middle ear. <P> The facial nerve is the only cranial nerve that may show normal post-contrast enhancement, although this applies only to the labyrinthine segment up to the stylomastoid foramen. Enhancement of the other segments of the facial nerve and other cranial nerves is considered pathologic. <P> Bell's palsy is a form of temporary facial paralysis resulting from damage or trauma to the facial nerves. The facial nerve-also called the 7th cranial nerve-travels through a narrow, bony canal (called the Fallopian canal) in the skull, beneath the ear, to the muscles on each side of the face.

how long does it take to cook potato cubes in a microwave
|
<P> This allows steam to escape during baking for a dryer, fluffier tater. Place on a microwave-safe plate and cook on high power for three to four minutes per potato. If you are making four potatoes, heat no longer than 12 minutes. Remove the hot baked potatoes using an oven mitt. Slice lengthwise at the top of the potato and fluff with a fork before adding your favorite toppings. <P> Microwave Roasted Potatoes Wash 4 (5- to 6 oz) potatoes. Cut into 1-inch cubes and place into microwave safe dish. Drizzle 2 tablespoons small amount of olive oil over potatoes and sprinkle with seasonings of choice. Toss evenly to disperse oil and seasonings. <P> 1 Check the potatoes after 5 minutes: Cubed potatoes will cook more quickly than whole potatoes; smaller potatoes will cook more quickly than larger potatoes. 2 Begin checking the potatoes after around 5 minutes of boiling; most potatoes will be done in 10 to 20 minutes. <P> If your microwave doesn’t have a potato button, a general rule is that one 7-to-8 ounce Idaho potato takes about 7 minutes to cook. 2 will take about 11 minutes. The microwave will often say REST. That means the potato, not you! You need to just let it sit for a couple of minutes, for it to actually finish cooking. If you are baking potatoes in the oven, you can rub a small amount of oil on them so that the skin gets nice and crispy. It is not necessary to rub oil on potatoes you are cooking in the microwave oven. Place the potato on a microwave-safe dish. Check the small print on the back of the dish to be sure. <P> So, like lot of people, I often zap potatoes in the microwave. In less then 10 minutes, they get cooked, covered with sour cream and bacon, and I’m ready to turn on the TV. Here’s how to cook a potato in the microwave oven. If you are baking potatoes in the oven, you can rub a small amount of oil on them so that the skin gets nice and crispy. It is not necessary to rub oil on potatoes you are cooking in the microwave oven. Place the potato on a microwave-safe dish. Check the small print on the back of the dish to be sure. <P> Step 5. Return the potatoes to the microwave and continue cooking in 1-minute intervals until they are soft to the center and you can easily pierce them with a fork. You should be able to cook one to two medium potatoes in 3 to 5 minutes, but a large bowl of six potatoes might take 10 minutes or more. Step 1. Scrub the potatoes under cold running water and blot them dry with paper towels. Cut the potatoes into cubes roughly 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter. You can peel the potatoes first or leave the peels intact. Add the potatoes to a microwave-safe bowl or spread them on a microwave-safe plate. Add your choice of herbs and spices, if desired. At the very least, the potatoes benefit from salt to add flavor, but you might also add pepper, butter and herbs. Cover the dish with plastic wrap to trap in steam and prevent drying <P> Microwave the sweet potatoes until mostly done. Place the sweet potatoes on a microwave-safe plate and cook for about 16 minutes, or 4 minutes for each potato. 1 Pause and turn the potatoes after each 4-minute mark to prevent them from cooking unevenly over overcooking. 2 When done, the sweet potatoes should be soft but not quite falling apart. <P> Basic Mashed Potatoes Wash 4 (5-to 6-oz.) whole potatoes into microwave-safe dish—do not puncture skin. Cover dish. (If covering dish with plastic wrap, poke small hole in plastic.) Microwave on HIGH for 10 to 12 minutes*. Cut into 1-inch cubes and place into microwave safe dish. Drizzle 2 tablespoons small amount of olive oil over potatoes and sprinkle with seasonings of choice. Toss evenly to disperse oil and seasonings.

The risk of a crash at 0.05% is about half as much as at 0.08%, the limit in all states, according to a safety board report releas <P> There’s no such thing. Australia has strict laws about drinking alcohol and driving, with the legal limit set at 0.05 blood alcohol concentration (BAC). Learners and probationary license-holders must have a 0.00 BAC. There’s no absolute safe level of alcohol consumption for competent driving. Even after just a few, your driving ability is affected. The more you drink, the higher your blood alcohol concentration, and the greater your chance of having an accident. <P> States should reduce the level of blood-alcohol qualifying as drunken driving to .05%, in an effort to reduce fatal crashes, the National Transportation Safety Board recommended Tuesday. <P> It is usually described as the amount of alcohol in mg per 100ml of blood. The maximum prescribed legal drink driving limit in England and Wales is 80mg/100ml blood or 0.08% and in Scotland it is 50mg/100ml blood or 0.05%. UK-ENGLAND & WALES LEGAL DRINK DRIVING LIMIT. <P> NSW has three blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limits: zero, under 0.02 and under 0.05. The limit that applies to you depends on the category of your licence and the type of vehicle you are driving.

How much do UAVs cost
|
<P> Price/Unit Cost: The MQ-1B Predator is no longer being purchased by the Air Force. The unit cost of the Army's MQ-1C Gray Eagle is $4.98 million in FY 2015, while the MQ-9 Reaper costs $13.77 million. These prices are for air vehicles only and does not include the cost of ground stations and other associated equipment. <P> This figure represents the known costs; it does not include funding that may be classified. The CIA has about 30 Predator and Reaper drones, which are operated by Air Force pilots from a U.S. military base in an unnamed U.S. state. The Department of Homeland Security has at least ten unarmed Predator drones, costing approximately $62 million a year. The cost per flight hour varies by type of drone. Predator and Reaper drones cost about $2,500-3,500 per flight hour; larger armed systems such as the military’s Global Hawk cost about 10 times as much: approximately $30,000 per flight hour. <P> Accordingly, the Air Force factsheet for Reaper cites a unit cost not for one air vehicle but for a Reaper CAP (four aircraft with sensors) at $53.5 million in FY 2006 dollars (which would be $60.3 million in 2012 dollars).[1] But even that Air Force fact sheet calculation is incomplete. Air Force flying hour cost data shows Reaper to cost only $3,624 per hour to fly in 2011 for what the Air Force terms operational flying hour costs.[9] That compares to the much higher hourly cost to fly A-10s or F-16s: $17,780 per hour for the newly modified A-10C and $20,809 for an F-16C. <P> The unit cost for one Predator is about $4.5 million, according to DHS estimates. But the costs of operating a UAV can become more than double the costs of operating a manned aircraft, said the Congressional Research Service (CRS) last summer. (See Homeland Security: Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Border Surveillance.). Based on that figure, keeping one UAV in the air every hour of the year would cost about $28.5 million. Homeland Security Today’s Mickey McCarter has written the most thorough piece on SBInet that I have seen in the past several years. <P> The General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper (formerly named Predator B) is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) capable of remote controlled or autonomous flight operations, developed by General Atomics Aeronautical Systems (GA-ASI) primarily for the United States Air Force (USAF). <P> Price/Cost: A full RQ-11 system with 3 UAVs, ground control station, video terminal and associated spares and other equipment has a price tag of about $300,000 (in FY 2012). The unit cost (just the aerial vehicle) is $34,000 (in FY 2012). None. <P> Accordingly, the Air Force factsheet for Reaper cites a unit cost not for one air vehicle but for a Reaper CAP (“four aircraft with sensors”) at $53.5 million in FY 2006 dollars (which would be $60.3 million in 2012 dollars). Air Force flying hour cost data shows Reaper to cost only $3,624 per hour to fly in 2011 for what the Air Force terms “operational” flying hour costs. [9] That compares to the much higher hourly cost to fly A-10s or F-16s: $17,780 per hour for the newly modified A-10C and $20,809 for an F-16C. <P> Operating one UAV could take a crew of up to 20 Border Patrol agents, according to the CRS analysis. CBP’s Air and Marine Branch last fall pegged the per-hour cost of operating a Predator UAV for border surveillance at $3,234. Based on that figure, keeping one UAV in the air every hour of the year would cost about $28.5 million. Homeland Security Today’s Mickey McCarter has written the most thorough piece on SBInet that I have seen in the past several years. <P> These UAV range in cost from a few thousand dollars to tens of millions of dollars, and the aircraft used in these systems range in size from a Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) weighing less than one pound to large aircraft weighing over 40,000 pounds.

what is ivig
|
<P> Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is a blood product that can be administered intravenously or subcutaneously. IVIG contains the pooled IgG antibodies extracted from the plasma of at least 1,000 and more commonly, up to 10,000 donors per dose. IVIG is a plasma protein replacement therapy (IgG) for immune deficient patients who have decreased or suppressed antibody production capabilities. In the case of patients with autoimmune disease, IVIG is administered at a high dose in an attempt to decrease the severity of the autoimmune disease. Most antibodies, whether produced by the patient’s own immune system or given in the form of immunoglobulin, are used up by the body. <P> Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) is a plasma product used in the treatment of certain conditions related to the immune system. IVIG therapy is done by administering medication directly into the bloodstream to help treat autoimmune diseases, immune deficiencies, and certain kinds of infections. IVIG could lead to anaphylaxis in rare cases <P> Side effects of IVIG treatment may include headache. IVIG therapy is done by administering medication directly into the bloodstream to help treat autoimmune diseases, immune deficiencies, and certain kinds of infections. IVIG could lead to anaphylaxis in rare cases <P> IVIG is made up of antibodies called immunoglobulins. It is used to prevent or reduce the severity of infections in people with a weak immune system. Also, it is given to increase platelets in people with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). About This Drug. IVIG is made up of antibodies called immunoglobulins. It is used to prevent or reduce the severity of infections in people with a weak immune system. Also, it is given to increase platelets in people with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). This drug is given in the vein (IV). <P> Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is a blood product prepared from the serum of between 1000 and 15 000 donors per batch. It is the treatment of choice for patients with antibody deficiencies. For this indication, IVIG is used at a ‘replacement dose’ of 200–400 mg/kg body weight, given approximately 3-weekly. In contrast, ‘high dose’ IVIG (hdIVIG), given most frequently at 2 g/kg/month, is used as an ‘immunomodulatory’ agent in an increasing number of immune and inflammatory disorders. <P> Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is a blood product administered intravenously. It contains the pooled, polyvalent, IgG antibodies extracted from the plasma of over one thousand blood donors. IVIG's effects last between 2 weeks and 3 months. Although routine use of IVIG is common practice, sometimes for long term treatments, and is considered safe, complications of IVIG therapy are known and include: 1 headache. 2 dermatitis-usually peeling of the skin of the palms and soles. <P> IVIG is given as a plasma protein replacement therapy (IgG) for immune deficient patients who have decreased or abolished antibody production capabilities. In these immune deficient patients, IVIG is administered to maintain adequate antibody levels to prevent infections and confers a passive immunity. Although routine use of IVIG is common practice, sometimes for long term treatments, and is considered safe, complications of IVIG therapy are known and include: 1 headache. 2 dermatitis-usually peeling of the skin of the palms and soles. <P> IVIG or intravenous immunoglobulin refers to blood plasma that is administered intravenously for people who have weakened immune systems. The plasma component comes from donors who are healthy and this is administered to patients intravenously.

how long can you keep urine sample frozen
|
<P> If properly sealed and stored, urine samples are good for testing up to 24 hours after the sample given. The urine sample should be in a sterile container within a sealed … plastic bag and stored in a refrigerator. 2 people found this useful. Yes, just make sure it is the normal temperature of urine if you use in a drug test. But freezing in until the drug test will be fine. If you are storing it for this purpose … , it may only stay good for a few days. Make sure it is a day or two fresh before using it <P> That depends on what you're testing for. Urine drug levels are good at room temp or in the fridge for several days. Microalbumin testing is also good for several days in the fridge. However, if the urine is being collected for a routine urinalysis or a microscopic, the urine needs to be tested as soon as possible. Yes, just make sure it is the normal temperature of urine if you use in a drug test. But freezing in until the drug test will be fine. If you are storing it for this purpose … , it may only stay good for a few days. Make sure it is a day or two fresh before using it <P> Storing a urine sample until you hand it in. If you can’t hand your urine sample in within an hour, you should keep it in the fridge at around 4C (39F) for no longer than 24 hours. Put the container of urine in a sealed plastic bag first. If the urine sample isn’t kept in a fridge, the bacteria in it can multiply. If this happens, it could affect the test results. <P> Johnny32525 New Member. Urine should be stored in a fridge for no more than 24 hours for use in a lab analysis. Source: Britain's National Health Service (NHS): I cant post link :/ but Google NHS urine sample and you can see my source. I actually have no idea how long urine can be kept at room temp, refrigerated, or frozen. I do know that I keep urine longer than 8 hours until the delivery service gets here. <P> Expert: Dr.tiwari replied 5 years ago. A frozen urine sample can be kept for testing for upto the 7-10 days without loosing the integrity of the sample.If it is then taken up to the body temperature naturally then drug testing can be done on that. Hope this will help you. Hello, Yes,Urine samples can be frozen to be tested later on-. http://www.clinchem.org/cgi/content/full/53/1/153. Hope this will help you. Ask Your Own Medical Question. Customer: replied 5 years ago. <P> I've used frozen (and subsequently thawed) urine three times successfully now, so I'll tell you what worked for me. If you can, I suggest using a sterile container for storage. I've used sterile and non-sterile and had no issues, but just to be safe, use sterile. A frozen urine sample can last up to one year. I haven't tested this-but it seems to be the general consensus on these forums and on other discussions I've seen on the net. I've used urine stored for over a month without complications, so using yours after a week of storage should be fin <P> If you keep your sample in the refrigerator for a week it will go bad.

IamN2pot said: 1, yes (I'm told some KY lube helps). 2. not if washed and rinced well. 3. in an air tight container, up to 1 year frozen, 30 days refrigerated and at least 8 hours at room/body temp. This link may intrest you. I actually have no idea how long urine can be kept at room temp, refrigerated, or frozen. I do know that I keep urine longer than 8 hours until the delivery service gets here. <P> A-Samples should be stored in a refrigerator. If stored for extended periods of time then they should be frozen. The integrity of our samples is ensured by our proprietary vacuum seal. As long as the sample remains in its vacuum seal it may be kept at room temperature away from direct sunlight for days at a time. It will be good for up to six months, in the vacuum seal, if stored in the refrigerator. If frozen in the vacuum seal, it can last for about 1 year. Once the sample is removed from the vacuum seal, it should not remain at room temperature for more than 18 hours. It will keep in the refrigerator, unsealed, for 30 days. In the freezer, an unsealed bag can last up to 6 months.

what are accessory fruits
|
<P> Such fruits are termed false fruits or accessory fruits. Strawberry is a good example of this. The fleshy tissue people consider the fruit is derived from the receptacle (the swollen tip of the flower stalk), and the true fruits are the tiny, seedlike achenes on the surface. <P> In accessory fruits, part of the fruit structure comes from tissue other than the ovary of the plant. The seeds of the strawberry are located on the outside of the fruit. The juicy part is called the receptacle. The most common type of aggregate fruit is a strawberry. <P> Some or all of the edible part of accessory fruit is not generated by the ovary. Accessory fruit can be simple, aggregate, or multiple, i.e., they can include one or more pistils and other parts from the same flower, or the pistils and other parts of many flowers. In botany, a fruit is a part of a flowering plant that derives from specific tissues of the flower, one or more ovaries, and in some cases accessory tissues. Fruits are the means by which these plants disseminate seed <P> Accessory Fruits. Accessory fruit defines a false fruit also known as pseudocarp. In these fruits the parts other than ovary and its wall are important in forming the fleshy fruit part. The true fruit is red and accessory is white. Home » Accessory Fruits. An actual fruit is dry achene; and the accessory is red and juicy at the time of maturity. Most of the accessory fruits are simple fruits that develop from inferior ovaries. Accessory fruits examples are apple, strawberry, quince, pineapple, watermelon etc. <P> Pomes are special kinds of accessory fruits with fleshy pulps more or less like drupes, except that they typically contain more than one seed. The best-known pomes are apples and pears. T hese are fruits in which parts other than the ovary and its wall form an important or conspicuous part of the fruit. Most accessory fruits are simple fruits that have developed from inferior ovaries .. <P> Examples of accessory tissue are the receptacle of the strawberry, pineapple, common fig, or mulberry, and the calyx of Gaultheria procumbens or Syzygium jambos. Pomes, such as apples and pears, are also accessory fruits, with much of the fruit flesh derived from a hypanthium. Other example could be the anthocarps specific to the family Nyctaginaceae, where most of the fruit comes from the perianth (floral whorls). The terms false fruit, spurious fruit, and pseudocarp are older terms for accessory fruit that have been criticized as inapt, and are not used by botanists today. <P> ACCESSORY FRUITS. These are fruits in which parts other than the ovary and its wall form an important or conspicuous part of the fruit. Most accessory fruits are simple fruits that have developed from inferior ovaries.. In our gardens, accessory fruits are represented by squash, cucumber, muskmelon, gooseberry, cranberry, and, if you live in the US's deep Deep South, bananas. The best-known pomes are apples and pears. T hese are fruits in which parts other than the ovary and its wall form an important or conspicuous part of the fruit.

what is a usability test important
|
<P> Why usability is important to you. Usability is the measure of the quality of a user's experience when interacting with a product or system-whether a web site, software application, mobile technology, or any user-operated device. According to Usability Expert Jakob Nielsen: <P> One of the main reasons website usability testing is so important is because of the amount of websites offering the same services and products. If the user cannot find what they are looking for on one site, they will automatically move on to the next. <P> The Importance of Web Site Usability Testing. If you want a great Web site, you must test its usability. Just because no one has complained about your site doesn't mean that all your visitors are using your site effectively, efficiently and to their full satisfaction. <P> The Importance of Web Usability Testing. The term “usability” is something we experience every day. It can refer to just about anything, including tools, books, software, or even cars. <P> Usability testing is a method used to test a system or design in a controlled environment. In web design, this primarily offers us the chance to monitor the strengths and weaknesses of our applications and websites in real time, with real users. Usability testing in action. <P> In the world of web design, the mantra is Always Be Testing. Yet, it’s not always clear how to go about testing your site or how to know what exactly you’re testing for. Fortunately, we’re here to provide the who, what and why of usability testing.

what are nucleic acids used for in the body
|
<P> To make a structural or functional protein, a cell needs to get genetic information from DNA out of the nucleus and into the rest of the cell, where the protein-producing machinery is located. Nucleic acids called mRNA, for messenger ribonucleic acid, form in the nucleus. They copy information from the DNA, and then leave the nucleus. Out in the cytoplasm, or liquid medium of the cell, the mRNA serves as a working template of genetic information for the protein-producing machinery. There are many different roles that nucleic acids, which include DNA and RNA, play in the human body and in other living organisms. Scientists continue to identify new and different functions of nucleic acids on a regular basis. <P> Nucleic acid is a protein found in RNA and DNA to determine our genes. THEY ARE NOT proteins. Nucleic acids are what compose RNA and DNA. They store all of the information … of your body and contain, if you will, the recipes necessary for the production of all the proteins in your body. Hope this helps. K. <P> The main role of nucleic acids is to store information that is used to make proteins. Nucleic acids come in two main forms: deoxyribonucleic acids, also known as DNA, and ribonucleic acids, also known as RNA. The main function of DNA is to store the genetic information that cells in the body need to function. <P> Best Answer: nucleic acids contain genetic information. they are used in protein synthesis and reproduction of the cell it is in. Nucleic acids code for proteins to be produced in the body. These proteins can be used to make the cell, act as enzymes in important reactions, repair the cell etc. Nucleic acids are also used in the reproduction of the cell it is found in. In mitosis, the DNA is copied so produce 2 daughter cells identical to the orginal <P> Perhaps the most familiar function of a nucleic acid in the body is that of DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA contains the genetic code, which consists of the sum of all information a cell or organism requires to perform its functions. Your cells, for instance, have a central nucleus that contains your DNA. There are many different roles that nucleic acids, which include DNA and RNA, play in the human body and in other living organisms. Scientists continue to identify new and different functions of nucleic acids on a regular basis. <P> Nucleic Acids. The third group of macromolecules found in cells contain some of the largest molecules of the body-these are the nucleic acids. There are two major groups of nucleic acids, ribonucleic acid (RNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) . Each group is composed of long chains of building block molecules known as nucleotides. There are four different nucleotides used in the formation of nucleic acids, these are adenine, thymine (uracil instead of thymine is found in RNA), guanine and cytosine (see Figure 11). <P> Report Abuse. 1) The primary use of nucleic acids is to store and transmit genetic Information and then use that information to direct the synthesis of new proteins. ex: DNA controls the synthesis of RNA. RNA transmits genetic information from DNA to the protein synthesizers in the cell. 2) Nucleic acids can be used to create energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). 3) Nucleic acids (primarily DNA) play a vital role in mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is essential to life because it replaces damaged or dead cells, repairs tissues, and allows the body to grow. <P> The two main types of nucleic acids in your body are called deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA, and ribonucleic acid, RNA. There are several sub-types of RNA, including messenger RNA, mRNA, transfer RNA, tRNA, and ribosomal RNA, rRNA. <P> Nucleic acid is a protein found in RNA and DNA to determine our genes.

how to work out energy transferred physics
|
<P> When energy is transferred by an appliance the energy is converted from one form to another. Some of the energy will be usefully transferred by the device and some will be wasted (transferred to a non-useful form). The ratio of energy which was transferred to a useful form compared to the total energy initially supplied is called the efficiency of the device. Efficiencies can be written as decimals like 0.33 or percentages 33%. <P> On the previous page, we learned what heat does to an object when it is gained or released. Heat gains or losses result in changes in temperature, changes in state or the performance of work. Heat is a transfer of energy. When gained or lost by an object, there will be corresponding energy changes within that object. <P> Energy Transfer. Equations. Click on the equation for more information. Efficiency (%) = (useful energy out ÷ total energy in) x 100. Gravitational Potential Energy = mass x gravity x height. GPE = mgh. Kinetic Energy = 0·5 x mass x velocity2. KE = ½mv2. Work done = Force x Distance. <P> Measuring energy transfers. In physics, there is a standard way to work out how much energy has gone from one thing to another. It is to calculate the work done in a change. Work is done when an applied force causes something to move in the direction of the force. δE = work done = force x distance moved in the direction of the force. Notice that no energy goes in or out in these two situations: 1 when an object rests on a shelf – although the object has weight, there is no movement. 2 if the force is perpendicular to the direction of movement-e.g. a satellite in orbit around the Earth <P> For instance, in SI units, energy is measured in joules, and one joule is defined mechanically, being the energy transferred to an object by the mechanical work of moving it a distance of 1 metre against a force of 1 newton. Energy is also transferred from potential energy () to kinetic energy () and then back to potential energy constantly. This is referred to as conservation of energy. In this closed system, energy cannot be created or destroyed; therefore, the initial energy and the final energy will be equal to each other. <P> Definition Of Work. Work is the transfer of energy. In physics we say that work is done on an object when you transfer energy to that object. If you put energy into an object, then you do work on that object (mass). If a first object is the agent that gives energy to a second object, then the first object does work on the second object. The energy goes from the first object into the second object. <P> For closed systems with no external source or sink of energy, the first law of thermodynamics states that a system's energy is constant unless energy is transferred in or out by mechanical work or heat, and that no energy is lost in transfer. This means that it is impossible to create or destroy energy. Energy is also transferred from potential energy () to kinetic energy () and then back to potential energy constantly. This is referred to as conservation of energy. In this closed system, energy cannot be created or destroyed; therefore, the initial energy and the final energy will be equal to each other. <P> Energy Transfer Diagrams. Most of the machines or devices we use transfer energy from one form to another. Input energy is taken in by the device in one form and transformed to output energy in another form. An energy transfer diagram or a Sankey diagram is used to show the transfer of energy across a process or a device. <P> Efficiency. The ratio of energy which was transferred to a useful form compared to the total energy initially supplied is called the efficiency of the device. Efficiencies can be written as decimals like 0.33 or percentages 33%. To convert a efficiency expressed as a decimal to a percentage you need to multiply by 100

how did hawaii become a state
|
<P> Hawaii is the only U.S. state located in Oceania and the only one composed entirely of islands. It is the northernmost island group in Polynesia, occupying most of an archipelago in the central Pacific Ocean. Hawaii is the only U.S. state not located in the Americas. On June 27, 1959, a referendum asked residents of Hawaii to vote on the statehood bill; 94.3% voted in favor of statehood and 5.7% opposed it. The referendum asked voters to choose between accepting the Act and remaining a U.S. 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> Hawaii Becomes a State August 21, 1959. Hawaii officially became the fiftieth state on August 21, 1959. It is one of the smallest states, and it is the only state made up entirely of islands. The islands are the tops of volcanoes, some of them still active.Hawaii's story begins long before 1959. The earliest inhabitants were Polynesians who settled in the islands more than 1,000 years ago. <P> In 1959, Hawaii became the 50th state after a plebiscite in which 90 percent of the islanders supported statehood. The businessmen who conspired to overthrow the queen claimed that they were overthrowing a corrupt, dissolute regime in order of advance democratic principles. <P> Hawaii was annexed as a territory in June of 1898 by an Act of Congress, and became a state on 21 August 1959. Hawaii was annexed to the US in 1898 after private businesses seized control in 1893 from the Hawaiian monarchy and formed an unrecognized republic. Hawaii underwent substantial expansion and modernization during World war II and became an integral part of the US policies in the Pacific. <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> Hawaiian statehood was granted by Act of Congress on March 18, 1959, effective August 21, 1959. During the imperialist 19th century, most undeveloped countries were occupied by European powers. Hawaii was annexed to the US in 1898 after private businesses seized control in 1893 from the Hawaiian monarchy and formed an unrecognized republic. Hawaii underwent substantial expansion and modernization during World war II and became an integral part of the US policies in the Pacific. <P> This Day In History: 08/21/1959 - Hawaii Becomes 50th State. On this day in 1959, the modern United States receives its crowning star when President Dwight D. Eisenhower signs a proclamation admitting Hawaii into the Union as the 50th state. On this day in 1959, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signs a bill making Hawaii the 50th state. Ike, as Eisenhower was known, entered the White House in 1953 in charge of 48 states; two more had been added by the time he left office in 1961. <P> In March 1959, the U.S. government approved statehood for Hawaii, and in June the Hawaiian people voted by a wide majority to accept admittance into the United States. Two months later, Hawaii officially became the 50th state. On this day in 1959, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signs a bill making Hawaii the 50th state. Ike, as Eisenhower was known, entered the White House in 1953 in charge of 48 states; two more had been added by the time he left office in 1961.

Some people with Lyme disease experience other, more advanced symptoms of the illness. Joint pain, especially in the knees, and a stiff neck may occur in the early-symptom stage or several months after your tick bite. Early Symptoms. Perhaps the most well-known symptom of Lyme disease is a rash that looks like a bullseye. Scientifically named erythema migrans, this type of rash occurs in 70-80 percent of people infected by a tick bite. The area directly around the tick bite may be red and raised and look like a normal bug <P> This is normal after a tick bite and does not indicate Lyme disease. However, these signs and symptoms may occur within a month after you've been infected: Rash. From 3 to 30 days after an infected tick bite, an expanding red area might appear that sometimes clears in the center, forming a bull’s-eye pattern. Later signs and symptoms. If untreated, new signs and symptoms of Lyme infection might appear in the following weeks to months.

what is gene sequence is used for phylogenetic trees
|
<P> How to Draw a Phylogenetic Tree (Using differences in molecular sequence). A phylogenetic tree uses data to indicate relatedness of different species. This webpage explains how to construct a phylogenetic tree using differences in molecular sequences (such as differences in amino acids, or differences in nucleotides). Numbers in the table below represent mutational differences in a particular gene. <P> Phylogenetic Analysis. Phylogenetic methods can be used for many purposes, including analysis of morphological and several kinds of molecular data. We concentrate here on the analysis of DNA and protein sequences. Comparisons of more than two sequences. Analysis of gene families, including functional predictions. To know what method is being used, you have to know both how the distance matrix was constructed, and how the tree was determined. Likelihood. A model of sequence evolution can be used to relate the data to a hypothesis (typically a tree topology). <P> In this example, a phylogenetic tree is constructed from mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences for the family Hominidae. This family includes gorillas, chimpanzees, orangutans, and humans. The following procedures demonstrate the phylogenetic analysis features in the Bioinformatics Toolbox™ software. <P> A phylogenetic tree or evolutionary tree is a branching diagram or tree showing the inferred evolutionary relationships among various biological species or other entities—their phylogeny —based upon similarities and differences in their physical or genetic characteristics. In a rooted phylogenetic tree, each node with descendants represents the inferred most recent common ancestor of the descendants, and the edge lengths in some trees may be interpreted as time estimates. Each node is called a taxonomic unit. <P> Molecular phylogenetics /mɵˈlɛkjʉlər ˌfaɪlɵdʒɨˈnɛtɨks/ is the branch of phylogeny that analyses hereditary molecular differences, mainly in DNA sequences, to gain information on an organism's evolutionary relationships. The result of a molecular phylogenetic analysis is expressed in a phylogenetic tree. Molecular phylogenetics is one aspect of molecular systematics, a broader term that also includes the use of molecular data in taxonomy and biogeography. <P> Phylogenetic trees are constructed in a variety of ways to summarize the evolutionary relatedness of different organisms. The data represented in a phylogenetic tree may come from (but are not limited to) observations of an organisms anatomical features and/or molecular sequence information. Phylogenetic trees, or diagrams that trace evolutionary relationships, serve this purpose. Phylogenetic trees are constructed to record the hypothesized classifications of organisms. If a group of organisms is hypothesized to share a common ancestor, the group is referred to as monophyletic. <P> Current Level. Generation of Phylogenetic Tree based upon DNA sequence analysis A phylogenetic tree is a type of graph that scientists use to classify related organisms. Traditionally these trees were created using physical traits of organisms such as bone structure, beak shape, etc. More recently molecular data has been used to support and refine these phylogenetic trees. This is done by aligning DNA sequences for a particular gene from several organisms and then applying a program to examine the number of mutations that have accumulated between these sequences. <P> This Click and Learn explains how DNA sequences can be used to generate such trees, and how to interpret them.

what is your patella
|
<P> Chondromalacia, also known as “runner’s knee,” is a condition where the cartilage on the undersurface of the patella (kneecap) deteriorates and softens. <P> Chondromalacia patella is abnormal softening of the cartilage of the underside the kneecap (patella). It is a cause of pain in the front of the knee (anterior knee pain). Chondromalacia patella is one of the most common causes of chronic knee pain. <P> Because your kneecap (patella) acts like a shield for your knee joint, it can easily be broken. Falling directly onto your knee, for example, is a common cause of patellar fractures. These fractures are serious injuries and often require surgery to heal. Over the long term, they may cause arthritis in the knee. Anatomy. The patella is a small bone located in front of your knee joint — where the thighbone (femur) and shinbone (tibia) meet. It protects your knee and connects the muscles in the front of your thigh to your tibia. <P> The patella, more commonly known as the kneecap, is the hard, triangular bone that protects the front of the knee joint. Seeming to float in front of the knee joint, it is actually connected by ligaments to the muscles above and below the knee. Most people know the patella as the kneecap. The patella, also known as the kneecap, is a rounded triangular bone that connects the upper leg to the lower leg. The patella is involved in movements that straighten the leg, such as leg extensions. The knee is the largest and most injured joint in the body. View slideshow of images abov <P> Definition. Patellar tendinitis is an injury to the tendon connecting your kneecap (patella) to your shinbone. The patellar tendon works with the muscles at the front of your thigh to extend your knee so you can kick, run and jump. Patellar tendinitis, also known as jumper's knee, is most common in athletes whose sports involve frequent jumping — such as basketball and volleyball. <P> Print. The kneecap (the patella) is a triangular bone at the front of the knee. Several tendons and ligaments connect to the kneecap, including ones attached to the upper leg (femur) and lower leg (tibia) bones. <P> For other uses, see Patella (disambiguation) . Kneecap redirects here. For other uses, see NECAP. The patella (/pəˈtɛlə/), also known as the kneecap or kneepan, is a thick, circular-triangular bone which articulates with the femur (thigh bone) and covers and protects the anterior articular surface of the knee joint. The patella is a sesamoid bone roughly triangular in shape, with the apex of the patella facing downards.The apex is the most inferior (lowest) part of the patella. It is pointed in shape, and gives attachment to the patellar ligame <P> The patella is commonly referred to as the kneecap. It is a small, freestanding, bone that rests between the femur (thighbone) and tibia (shinbone). The femur has a dedicated groove along which the kneecap slides. As a form of protection, both bones also contain cartilage — strong, flexible tissue — in the areas near the patella.

what are mastiffs bred for
|
<P> The Neapolitan Mastiff was bred for centuries to guard its family. As such, it is incredibly loyal and devoted to its family, watchful and suspicious of strangers, and tolerant of acquaintances. It is a stay-at-home-type dog. Although it is loving toward children, its sheer size can make accidents possible. <P> The Mastiff is one of the most ancient types of dog breeds. His ancestor, the molossus, was known 5,000 years ago. Then, he was a ferocious war dog, very different from the benevolent behemoth that he is today. Lyme Hall was famous for its strain of Mastiffs, which were bred from the 15th century through the early 20th century, and played a role in saving the breed from extinction. The breed almost came to an end after 1835, when the brutal sports of bear-baiting, bull-baiting, and dog-fighting were outlawed. <P> 1 The Mastiff is considered a breed with a short lifespan, but some Mastiffs have lived to 18 years of age. 2 A dog is a lifelong commitment, and if you are drawn to the breed because of the chance of a short lifespan, you may want to reassess your choice. Lyme Hall was famous for its strain of Mastiffs, which were bred from the 15th century through the early 20th century, and played a role in saving the breed from extinction. The breed almost came to an end after 1835, when the brutal sports of bear-baiting, bull-baiting, and dog-fighting were outlawed. <P> 1 Mastiffs need daily exercise, but take into account the age of the dog and the temperature. 2 Mastiffs can overheat easily. 3 Without exercise and stimulation, Mastiffs can become bored and destructive. 4 The Mastiff is considered a breed with a short lifespan, but some Mastiffs have lived to 18 years of age. Lyme Hall was famous for its strain of Mastiffs, which were bred from the 15th century through the early 20th century, and played a role in saving the breed from extinction. The breed almost came to an end after 1835, when the brutal sports of bear-baiting, bull-baiting, and dog-fighting were outlawed. <P> The Mastiff should at all stages of development show the breed characteristics of massiveness and sound, if cumbersome, movement. The Mastiff is a particularly large dog demanding correct diet and exercise. It has been alleged that the Mastiff was bred with other more numerous giant breeds such as Bullmastiffs and St. Bernards, as these were considered close relatives to the Mastiff. In 1959, a Dogue de Bordeaux, Fidelle de Fenelon, was imported from France to the USA, registered as a Mastiff, and entered the gene pool. <P> The Mastiff is a large, massive, symmetrical dog with a well-knit frame. The impression is one of grandeur and dignity. Dogs are more massive throughout. Bitches should not be faulted for being somewhat smaller in all dimensions while maintaining a proportionally powerful structure. The breed's short coat needs little maintenance beyond regular weekly grooming with a brush and the occasional bath. Exercise They are destined to be very large dogs, so basic obedience training should be a part of every Mastiff's upbringing. <P> The American Kennel Club recognized the breed in 1885, and a Mastiff named Bayard was the first of his breed to be registered with the AKC. The current Mastiff Club of America was formed in 1929 and still watches over the breed today, almost 80 years later. Lyme Hall was famous for its strain of Mastiffs, which were bred from the 15th century through the early 20th century, and played a role in saving the breed from extinction. The breed almost came to an end after 1835, when the brutal sports of bear-baiting, bull-baiting, and dog-fighting were outlawed. <P> The breed commonly referred to as the “Mastiff” in English-speaking countries is more accurately called the English Mastiff or the Old English Mastiff. Also known as the Mestyf and the Mastie, this is a giant breed known for its grandeur and good nature. Originally bred as a guard and watch dog, it is also well-known for its docile disposition, despite a somewhat ferocious appearance. <P> The Mastiff is a dog breed that is quite ancient. From the days of Caesar to the Middle Ages to World War II, the breed has developed and splintered into various mastiff types. The modern Mastiff's large and domineering appearance may be quite intimidating, but the breed is actually quite gentle and very loyal. History and Background. The history of the Mastiff is a bit muddled due to the confusion between this breed and the ancient Mastiff group from which it originates, but the modern Mastiff breed is of relatively recent origin.

what can cure the spot on my tongue
|
<P> In most cases spots on the tongue begin on the sides of the tongue and spread to the center of the tongue. In some cases spots will grow into a coating that covers the tongue. This can continue to grow to be quite thick if it is allowed to continue unchecked. <P> Red spots on tongue are small blood bumps that can be caused due to a variety of reasons like vitamin deficiencies, infections, allergic reactions, autoimmune diseases etc. The tongue is normally pinkish in color. The color, texture and moisture of the tongue communicate a lot about the general health of an individual. <P> The cause and cure of those white spots on your tongue can be determined by your doctor after a thorough examination. Some rules like maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding habits like alcohol and tobacco which irritate the tongue apply for all cases of white spots on the tongue. <P> Red spots on tongue may be caused due to a harmless condition or a severe underlying disease. Hence, it is important for all patients to consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Symptoms. 1 Red spots on tongue may sometimes develop as red bumps. 2 Such unsightly bumps may be painful and elicit a burning sensation. <P> Instead, consult a doctor to clear your doubts. Effective Treatment. As this condition can be caused by a number of reasons, effective treatment of red spots on tongue is primarily dependent on accurate identification of the underlying cause. <P> White spots on tongue can be a harmless coating on the mouth, but they can also be the sign of a more serious condition such as oral cancer. There are a few conditions that can cause white spots to appear on the tongue. <P> White spots on tongue, whether in children or adults can be caused by a number of reasons ranging from simple infection and tongue injury to serious oral cancer. Let’s begin with some of the most common causes. <P> In contrast, some infections, like scarlet fever, can produce red spots on the tongue. Inflammation and whitening of the tongue can also occur due to dryness or environmental irritants such as smoking or other tobacco use, and may be associated with bad breath. Inflammation of the tongue is known as glossitis.

what is a black mamba
|
<P> The black mamba is one of four species of mambas, according to the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS). Others are Jameson’s mamba, eastern green mamba and western green mamba. Mambas are in the same family, Elapidae, as coral snakes and cobras. West African green mamba. Also known as the Western green Mamba or Hallowell’s green mamba, this snake can reach 10 feet (3 m), according to Branson’s Wild World. It is the second-longest venomous snake in Africa, after the black mamba. As its name suggests, it lives in West Africa. <P> The Black Mamba is considered to be the longest venomous of all snakes found around Africa. It is also considered to be one of the deadliest. It features a very powerful venom and that has many people running scared from it. They are fast moving snakes and they are know to be aggressive and strike in a moments notice. <P> The black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis) is a venomous snake endemic to sub-Saharan Africa. It takes its common name not from the colour of its scales, but from the interior of its mouth, which is inky-black. It is the longest species of venomous snake on the African continent, with a length typically ranging from 2 meters (6.6 ft) to 3 meters (9.8 ft) and up to 4.3 to 4.5 meters (14.1 to 14.8 ft). Adult black mambas have few predators in the wild. The venom of the black mamba is highly toxic, potentially causing collapse in humans within 45 minutes or less. Without effective antivenom therapy, death typically occurs in 7–15 hours. <P> Black Mamba. Dendroaspis polylepis. Black mambas are actually brown in color. They get their name from the blue-black of the inside of their mouths, which they display when threatened. <P> The Black Mamba is the most deadly snake in the world. They grow 14 feet in length, and can travel at speeds of up to 12 mph. They have a head shaped like a coffin. The Black Mamba is not actually black. They have a brownish-gray body with a light belly and brownish scales along its back. <P> The black mamba is Africa’s deadliest snake. Untreated, its bite has a fatality rate of 100 percent, making it a killer among killers on a continent where it is thought that nearly 20,000 people die of snake bites each year, and the residents of Swaziland in southern Africa have suffered losses for generations. <P> The black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis) belongs to the Elapidae family of snakes. It is the second largest venomous snake in the world. An adult black mamba can grow up to 14 feet (4.3 m) in length. The black mamba's skin is not actually black, it gets its name from the colour of the roof of its mouth. The black mamba lives in the south and the east of Africa. A black mamba's bite is easily enough to kill an adult man. The deadly poison takes between 30 minutes to 3 hours to kill, in most cases. Unlike most snakes it has enough venom to bite many times in a short period. <P> The black mamba has quite a reputation. It is one of the world’s deadliest snakes. It is the fastest land snake in the world, and “the longest species of venomous snake in Africa and the second longest in the world,” said Sara Viernum, a herpetologist based in Madison, Wisconsin. West African green mamba. Also known as the Western green Mamba or Hallowell’s green mamba, this snake can reach 10 feet (3 m), according to Branson’s Wild World. It is the second-longest venomous snake in Africa, after the black mamba. As its name suggests, it lives in West Africa. <P> For these reasons, the black mamba is widely considered the world’s deadliest snake. Black mambas live in the savannas and rocky hills of southern and eastern Africa. They are Africa’s longest venomous snake, reaching up to 14 feet (4.5 meters) in length, although 8.2 feet (2.5 meters) is more the average. Black mambas are actually brown in color. They get their name from the blue-black of the inside of their mouths, which they display when threatened.

For a basic 1 panel project in zip code 47474, the benchmark cost to Install an Electrical Service Panel ranges between $843.76 - $1,273.51 per panel. To estimate costs for your project: 1. Set Project Zip Code Enter the Zip Code for the location where labor is hired and materials purchased. 2 <P> A qualified electrical contractor usually charges between $800 and $1,200 to upgrade an existing panel to 100 amps. This will only occur in older homes, like in Philadelphia for example, because the current minimum requirement is 100 amps. If a new panel is needed, it will cost between $1,500 and $2,500. An upgrade to 200 amps typically costs from $1,300-$3,000, and an upgrade to 400 amps can cost up to $4,000. Many people believe their circuit breaker or electrical panel is faulty because they experience a tripped breaker. Often, this is not the case <P> This document discusses the typical costs to replace an electrical panel.

what is casting resin
|
<P> Epoxy Resin: These resins are more frequently used in the crafting and hobby world, they are easy to use with a low toxicity, making them suitable for ventilated craft rooms and work areas. Epoxy resin is perfect for jewelry casting as it has a shallow setting depth, so it will cure quickly when used correctly. In this tutorial, you will learn about basic resin casting-the types of resins, how to measure them and how to work with them. You will also learn about different types of molds and how to mix them. <P> Alternately, resin casting may be accomplished with a resin plus a nearly equal amount of a hardener liquid (as in many epoxy resin or polyester resin systems), which functionally contains a second polymer, for use in forming a final product plastic which is a copolymer. In such uses, the curing agent mixed with the resin contains what is loosely referred to as a catalyst , but which is more technically an initial source of free radicals (such as MEKP) to act as an initiator in a free-radical chemical chain reaction polymerization. <P> Product Details. Clear casting resin is designed for deep molds and castings. Use it to embed or encase almost any object in crystal clear plastic. Coins, shells, rocks, dried flowers, insects, paper and photographs are just a few of the examples of encapsulation possibilities. Details: Rated 5 out of 5 by oldschoolwood Castin' craft resin. Clear polyester. I used this as an experiment to see if it could handle weathering. I am a professional designer and maker. <P> Resin casting is a method of plastic casting where a mold is filled with a liquid synthetic resin, which then hardens. In such uses, the curing agent mixed with the resin contains what is loosely referred to as a catalyst , but which is more technically an initial source of free radicals (such as MEKP) to act as an initiator in a free-radical chemical chain reaction polymerization. <P> Casting Resin. Aristocrat crystal clear polyester casting resin is a liquid plastic, when catalyst is added to the resin a chemical reaction causes the resin to cure and harden into a rock hard, crystal clear piece. It is an easy to use, water clear polyester resin, perfect for making decorative plastic craft items. You can use an assortment of molds we offer to embed and encapsulate coins, dried flowers, insects, seashells, stones, and many other objects forever in plastic. <P> TAP Clear-Lite Casting Resin. It's a liquid plastic. Easy-to-use, water-clear polyester resin. Embed and encapsulate coins, dried flowers, insects, seashells, stones, and pebbles, and many keepsakes. Add Chemco Transparent Dyes or TAP Opaque Pigments to color resin. <P> To use casting resin, the resin is poured into a mold and allowed to harden before the mold is removed. Resins used for casting are often clear, although they can be blended with pigments and dyes to create colored finished products. Resin molds can be used to create plastic-like parts for use in manufacturing or for lightweight jewelry components. Backup molds are more rigid molds used to support flexible rubber molds during the resin-casting process. A backup mold prevents the primary rubber molds from distorting when casting resin is added. <P> 10 hilariously insightful foreign words. Casting resin is a resinous material used in casting. Synthetic resins are often used to make casting resin, although it is also possible to use natural resins. A wide variety of industries use resin in casting, and it is also popular with some hobbyists and craftspeople. For example, resin can be used to create casts for a model railroad, or to create thematic elements used in jewelery making. Resin is a highly viscous fluid which hardens as it cures. In the case of synthetic resins, a catalyst needs to be mixed with the resin so that it will harden properly. Natural resins can be processed in a variety of ways to achieve the desired hardness, and these techniques can include the use of a catalyst. <P> Pour Clear Polyester Casting Resin into any mold to make a paperweight, or sculpture. Casting resin is a crystal clear, low viscosity liquid that requires mixing with a catalyst to become rock hard (purchase catalyst separately). It cures to a smooth glossy transparency at room temperature. Use of a mold release is not necessary for flexible plastic or rubber molds. Note — Casting resin has only a 6-month shelf life. Store in a cool place. Polyester Catalyst — Clear, colorless liquid, very low viscosity.

avastin cost for eye injection
|
<P> If a patient gets 12 eye injections in a year, the doctor will make $650 more per patient if they use Lucentis over Avastin. Similarly, there is no financial incentive for Genentech to sell less Lucentis and more Avastin. When Avastin is used to treat cancer patients, it is often delivered at more than 100 times the dose needed for an eye injection, and a full course of Avastin treatment for cancer can cost up to $50,000 per patient. The switch could also save patients $5 billion in insurance copayments, according to a new study in Health Affairs. Ranibizumab, more commonly known by its brand name Lucentis, is delivered as an injection to the eye and runs about $2,023 per dose. Many patients require up to 12 injections per year. That's why some doctors choose to prescribe the much cheaper drug Avastin (bevacizumab) instead, which costs around $55 per dose <P> Although Avastin can cost thousands of dollars a month as a cancer treatment, when used in the tiny portions required for eye-disease injections, it costs only about $30 to $50 per shot. But it was unclear how Medicare should reimburse eye doctors for that use of Avastin. <P> The cost of Lucentis, a drug specifically formulated for the eye, is approximately $2,000 per intravitreal dose, while Avastin, formulated for intravenous use and available in larger quantities that can be compounded into smaller units, costs approximately $60 per intravitreal dose. <P> Medicare as of early 2010 provides a $50 reimbursement per injection when Avastin is used for macular degeneration treatments. In late 2009, eye doctors successfully lobbied to overturn a new Medicare directive that reduced reimbursements for Avastin from $50 to $7 per injection. Medicare's action temporarily forced eye doctors to use Lucentis instead of Avastin. The editorial noted that Lucentis costs more than $2,000 per treatment, while Avastin costs less than $150 per treatment. This price discrepancy could be highly significant for people who have limited or no health insurance coverage. <P> The problem is that Avastin is FDA-approved only for treatment of colon and other cancers, but not for macular degeneration. As an alternative, many eye doctors have been using Avastin as an off-label treatment. The editorial noted that Lucentis costs more than $2,000 per treatment, while Avastin costs less than $150 per treatment. This price discrepancy could be highly significant for people who have limited or no health insurance coverage. <P> Avastin, sold by Genentech, is approved to treat cancer, not eye disease. But many retina specialists use Avastin off label because it costs only about $50 an injection, compared with $2,000 for Lucentis, another Genentech drug that has the same mode of action and is approved as an eye treatment. <P> A dose of Avastin -- used off-label for this purpose, as the drug is currently approved only for cancer indications -- costs about $50 whereas a dose of Ludentis, which is approved for AMD, costs about $2,000. Maguire and colleagues reported that Avastin delivered monthly cost an average of $595 and Lucentis cost $23,400. If the drugs were taken only as needed, rather than on a monthly basis, the cost dropped for both drugs, but Avastin was still the bargain choice: $385 for the year of treatment compared with $13,800. <P> A report last month from the inspector general of the. estimated that in 2008 and 2009, Medicare paid $1.1 billion for 696,927 Lucentis injections but only $40 million for a greater number — 936,382 — of injections of Avastin. Patients get an injection as often as once a month. And patients would have had to pay an extra $370 million because the co-payment for Lucentis was $406, compared to only $11 for Avastin. However, dividing a vial of Avastin meant for a single cancer patient into many tiny doses for the eye introduces the risk of microbial contamination. <P> Email. One drug costs $50 per dose. The other costs $2,000 per dose. Now, new research shows that the drug Avastin, normally used in cancer treatment, is just about as effective at treating an eye disease that can lead to blindness as the more commonly used and more expensive Lucentis. Maguire and colleagues reported that Avastin delivered monthly cost an average of $595 and Lucentis cost $23,400. If the drugs were taken only as needed, rather than on a monthly basis, the cost dropped for both drugs, but Avastin was still the bargain choice: $385 for the year of treatment compared with $13,800.

<P> When an arrector pili muscle contracts, it pulls the hair follicle into position closer to a right angle to the skin surface. Thus, hair stands nearly straight up, or perpendicular to the skin. Ad. Arrectores pilorum are composed of smooth muscles cells, and is therefore an example of smooth muscle. It is the muscle responsible for making hairs stand on end..

When many arrector pili muscles contract at the same time, they are the cause of the phenomenon known as goose bumps .. <P> The follicle is dilated at its base to form the bulb (matrix). In the obtuse angle between the root of a hair and the surface of the skin, a bundle of smooth muscle fibers, known as an arrector pili muscle, is usually found. It extends from the deep part of the hair follicle to the papillary layer of the dermis. <P> Arrector pili muscles are in the skin, connected to the hair follicles. Their job is to help maintain body homeo … stasis. When we are cold, the arrector pili muscles shorten, causing our hairs to stand up so that they block the cold and help keep heat from escaping. <P> Each arrector pili is composed of a bundle of smooth muscle fibres which attach to several follicles (a follicular unit), and is innervated by the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system. The contraction of the muscle is then involuntary–stresses such as cold, fear etc. may stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, and thus cause contraction, but the muscle is not under conscious control. Contraction of the muscles has a number of different purposes. <P> 1 In order to generate heat when the body is cold, the arrector pili muscles contract all at once, causing the hair to stand up straight on the skin. 2 The arrector pili muscle is a source of information when evaluating a skin biopsy since it is well-innervated with autonomic nerves that control when the muscle contracts.

why do veins have valves

<P> EXPERT ANSWER. 1 Veins have valves within them to prevent back flow of blood. 2 Veins do not have as many elastic fibers as arteries. 3 The valves keep the blood from pooling and flowing back to the legs under the influence of gravity. <P> As the blood in the veins flow slowly and with a low pressure thus to prevent this back flow of blood veins have valves but as the blood in the arteries move fast and are unde … r a high pressure they don't have valves. <P> Arteries do not need them as the blood in them is being pumped out from the heart under pressure. The pressure it … self prevents backflow. It is interesting to note that veins in the head and upper chest don't have valves either, because blood in them flows under gravity. <P> arteries don't have valves because the blood that flows through it has a LOT of pressure. If there were valves in arteries, they might burst...as on the other hand veins have … valves because the De-oxygenated blood (blue blood) cntnz less pressure and so the blood could flow in 1 way only needs valves..... <P> Confidence votes 151. Arteries do not have valve s because the heart provides the pressure needed to send blood through the system. Veins have valves because venous pressure is often not great enough (as the blood must overcome gravity and other forces) to return the blood to the heart. <P> Arteries do not have valves because the heart provides the pressure needed to send blood through the system.

what is a double astigmatism
|
<P> Astigmatism is a common eye condition that's usually corrected by eyeglasses, contact lenses, or surgery. Astigmatism is caused by an eye that is not completely round and occurs in nearly everybody to some degree. For vision problems due to astigmatism, glasses, contact lenses, and even vision correction procedures are all possible treatment options. A person's eye is naturally shaped like a sphere. However, the eye of a person with astigmatism is shaped more like a football or the back of a spoon. For this person, when light enters the eye it is refracted more in one direction than the other, allowing only part of the object to be in focus at one time. Objects at any distance can appear blurry and wavy <P> Astigmatism is a vision condition that causes blurred vision due either to the irregular shape of the cornea, the clear front cover of the eye, or sometimes the curvature of the lens inside the eye. An irregular shaped cornea or lens prevents light from focusing properly on the retina, the light sensitive surface at the back of the eye. As a result, vision becomes blurred at any distance. Astigmatism is a very common vision condition. Most people have some degree of astigmatism. <P> The condition can cause blurred vision. Astigmatism occurs when the front surface of your eye (cornea) or the lens, inside your eye, has a slightly different surface curvature in one direction from the other. Instead of being even and smooth in all directions, the surface may have some areas that are flatter or steeper. <P> Introduction. Astigmatism is a common and usually minor eye condition that causes blurred or distorted vision. It occurs when the cornea or lens isn't a perfectly curved shape. Many people who wear glasses have some degree of astigmatism. Astigmatism belongs to a group of related eye conditions known as refractive errors. Astigmatism is usually the result of an irregular-shaped cornea or lens. The cornea is the transparent layer of tissue at the front of the eye. The cornea should be regularly curved like the surface of a football, but in cases of astigmatism it has an irregular curve, more like the shape of a rugby ball. <P> Astigmatism is a vision disorder that occurs when the cornea of the eye is uneven in shape. More rarely, it can result from the way in which the eye's natural crystalline lens refracts light. Either condition causes a distorted image to fall on the retina. <P> Astigmatism is an optical defect in which vision is blurred due to the inability of the optics of the eye to focus a point object into a sharp focused image on the retina. This may be due to an irregular or toric curvature of the cornea or lens. The two types of astigmatism are regular and irregular. <P> Astigmatism Symptoms. Astigmatism usually causes vision to be blurred or distorted to some degree at all distances. Symptoms of uncorrected astigmatism are eye strain and headaches, especially after reading or other prolonged visual tasks. Squinting also is a very common symptom. Most astigmatism is regular corneal astigmatism, which gives the front surface of the eye a football shape. Irregular astigmatism can result from an eye injury that has caused scarring on the cornea, from certain types of eye surgery or from keratoconus, a disease that causes a gradual thinning of the cornea. More Info. <P> Astigmatism is an eye condition with blurred vision as its main symptom. The front surface of the eye (cornea) of a person with astigmatism is not curved properly-the curve is irregular-usually one half is flatter than the other-sometimes one area is steeper than it should be. When light rays enter the eye they do not focus correctly on the retina, resulting in a blurred image. Causes of astigmatism. Corneal astigmatism. The cornea is a clear (transparent) layer of tissue that covers the front of the eye. As well as transmitting and focusing light into the eye, it protects the eye from infection and damage.

what are considered soft foods
|
<P> When preparing a soft food meal, you can also use a food processor to grind or puree foods to make them easier to chew, swallow and digest. It is also wise to avoid or limit your intake of foods in the cabbage family, such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and brussels sprouts. Peas can sometime also cause gas, and therefore are not mentioned on the list of soft foods. <P> List of Foods for a Soft Food Diet. Printer-friendly version. A soft food diet includes soft-textured foods or those softened by cooking, mashing or chopping, which are easy to chew and swallow. Breads, Cereals, Grains. Safe soft foods in the grains group include cooked cereals such as oatmeal, grits, cream of wheat or easily softened cereals such as Rice Krispies and Corn Flakes. Also acceptable are soft breads and muffins, pancakes, French toast with the crusts cut off and pasta. Eggs and Dairy. <P> A soft food diet (also known as a soft diet) consists of foods that are bland, moderately low in fat, and soft in texture. In some cases soft foods can be consumed whole. In other cases it is necessary to blend, mash, or puree foods to make them easier to swallow and digest. DENIO RIGACCI/iStock/Getty Images. Foods to Avoid. High-fat, spicy, tough, and stringy foods aren't permitted with a soft food plan. Foods that contain whole seeds, sharp edges (such as a crisp flatbread), fish scales (such as sardines) should be avoided. Raw fruits and vegetables (except lettuces, bananas, and avocados) are also not permitted. <P> This diet is often confused with the soft diet that is a regular diet but without fibers, spiced foods, and highly fatty foods (some people may call it light diet). A Mechanical soft diet can include many or most foods if they are mashed, pureed, combined with sauce or gravy, or simmered in liquid. Many of the foods listed here can be adapted for a full liquid diet (not a clear liquid diet) by processing in a blender with an appropriate thinning liquid such as a vegetable or meat broth, fruit or vegetable juice, or milk. <P> Advertisement. Soft foods as the name suggests are foods that are soft in texture, making them easy to chew and swallow. Besides being soft in texture, the soft food umbrella also entails foods that are not high in fiber content and also those that conduce to gas. <P> The soft diet limits or eliminates foods that are hard to chew and swallow, such as raw fruits and vegetables, chewy breads, and tough meats. In some cases, high-fiber foods like whole-grain breads and cereals and “gas-forming” vegetables like broccoli or cauliflower may be restricted to ease digestion. The mechanical soft diet is a close cousin of the soft diet. It gets its name from the fact that household tools and machines, like a blender, meat grinder, or knife, are used to make foods easier to chew and swallow. <P> A soft diet that you will be eating foods where the texture is soft and they are easy to chew or swallow. This diet is common when a person is having problems chewing or swallowing their food. It is also wise to avoid or limit your intake of foods in the cabbage family, such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and brussels sprouts. Peas can sometime also cause gas, and therefore are not mentioned on the list of soft foods. <P> Soft foods are generally considered those that can be swallowed without being chewed. Sherbet, puddings, soft eggs and overcooked pastas are considered soft foods. It's recommended that you start with a clear soft food, such as gelatin, and progress to an opaque soft food such as sherbet. Usually, your body will notify you if your appetite is moving too fast <P> Breads, Cereals, Grains. Safe soft foods in the grains group include cooked cereals such as oatmeal, grits, cream of wheat or easily softened cold cereals such as Rice Krispies and Corn Flakes.

what is a carbon monoxide detector
|
<P> Carbon monoxide, or CO, is a poisonous gas that cannot be seen or smelled and can kill a person in minutes. Carbon monoxide can quickly build up to unsafe levels in enclosed or semi-enclosed areas. Yes, these detectors are similar to smoke alarms and can warn you when carbon monoxide levels become unsafe. If the alarm goes off, evacuate the building and call 911. Follow the carbon monoxide detector instructions for routine maintenance, including regular replacement of batteries. <P> I recommend that you have a carbon monoxide detector within 15 feet of each bedroom door, 10 feet is even better if you can afford more detectors. If two bedroom doors are 30 feet apart or less, then place one in the middle. If however they are more than 30 feet apart you will need more than one detector. <P> As of July 1, 2011 the Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Prevention Act (Senate Bill-SB 183) requires owners of all single-family homes with an attached garage or a fossil fuel source to install carbon monoxide detectors within the home by July 1, 2011. You can't see or smell carbon monoxide, but at high levels it can kill a person in minutes. Carbon monoxide (CO) is produced whenever any fuel such as gas, oil, kerosene, wood, or charcoal is burned. <P> Carbon Monoxide detector connected to a North American power outlet. A carbon monoxide detector or CO detector is a device that detects the presence of the carbon monoxide (CO) gas in order to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. CO detectors can be placed near the ceiling or near the floor because CO is very close to the same density as air. Since CO is colorless, tasteless and odorless (unlike smoke from a fire), detection in a home environment is impossible without such a warning device. <P> Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless, and tasteless gas that is near impossible to identify without a proper detector. It is caused by fuels not burning completely, including wood, gasoline, coal, propane, natural gas, gasoline, and heating oil. Difficult to detect and treat once the damage is done, carbon monoxide is known as the silent killer. This sneaky, toxic gas finds its way into your home through a wide range of seemingly harmless sources. <P> Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odorless and tasteless poison gas that can be fatal when inhaled. It is sometimes called the silent killer.. CO inhibits the blood's capacity to carry oxygen. CO can be produced when burning fuels such as gasoline, propane, natural gas, oil or wood. 1 CO inhibits the blood's capacity to carry oxygen. 2 CO can be produced when burning fuels such as gasoline, propane, natural gas, oil or wood. 3 CO is the product of incomplete combustion. 4 If you have fire, you have CO. <P> Carbon monoxide consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom, connected by a triple bond that consists of two covalent bonds as well as one dative covalent bond. It is the simplest oxocarbon and is isoelectronic with the cyanide anion, the nitrosonium cation and molecular nitrogen. Carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, but highly toxic. It combines with hemoglobin to produce carboxyhemoglobin, which usurps the space in hemoglobin that normally carries oxygen, but is ineffective for delivering oxygen to bodily tissues. <P> Some processes in modern technology, such as iron smelting, still produce carbon monoxide as a byproduct. Worldwide, the largest source of carbon monoxide is natural in origin, due to photochemical reactions in the troposphere that generate about 5 × 10 kilograms per year. Other natural sources of CO include volcanoes, forest fires, and other forms of combustion. Carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, but highly toxic. It combines with hemoglobin to produce carboxyhemoglobin, which usurps the space in hemoglobin that normally carries oxygen, but is ineffective for delivering oxygen to bodily tissues. <P> It is produced by the incomplete burning of various fuels, including coal, wood, charcoal, oil, kerosene, propane, and natural gas. Products and equipment powered by internal combustion engines such as portable generators, cars, lawn mowers, and power washers also produce CO. <P> Inside a Carbon Monoxide Detector. You may be surprised to discover that a carbon monoxide (CO) detector really isn't a complicated piece of equipment. Housed inside a plastic chamber approximately 3 inches (7.6 centimeters) in diameter are parts that work in unison to alert a household when lethal gas is detected.

how to tell if someone is missing you
|
<P> It seems as though missing someone is an automatic reaction to not being with someone you love, and it is an impossible reaction to escape. It seems as if when someone you love leaves you, you miss them, and that’s just the way it works. There’s no choice in the matter. This is because when you are already happy, there is no reason to think about the person you have been missing. But when you’re sitting there, not particularly happy, or just not doing much, your mind just keeps bringing up how you would be happier if they were here and that causes you to keep thinking about them. <P> Let me first say this: there is no problem with thinking about anyone. It is not as though you shouldn’t do it or it is a bad thing to do. But, if you want to know how to stop thinking about someone, then you first have to understand why you are thinking about them. This is because when you are already happy, there is no reason to think about the person you have been missing. But when you’re sitting there, not particularly happy, or just not doing much, your mind just keeps bringing up how you would be happier if they were here and that causes you to keep <P> Quotes About Missing. Quotes tagged as missing (showing 1-30 of 205). “They say when you are missing someone that they are probably feeling the same, but I don't think it's possible for you to miss me as much as I'm missing you right now”. ― Edna St. Vincent Millay. Like. “Missing someone, they say, is self-centered <P> When someone close to you goes missing it understandably affects how you feel and think and are able to cope with things yourself. When a person living with a mental illness goes missing, it’s natural to worry even more about their safety and where they are. <P> Surprise him by leaving behind a note! Another way of how to make someone miss you is by writing a small note, and putting it secretly inside your guy’s wallet, car or room before you leave. In this way, when he spots it later, he will love you more and starts missing you instantly. So, the best approach of how to make a man miss you is by keeping your personal life alongside keeping relationship with him. Give him attention, but whenever required. Hangout with him, but also meet your friends, family and relatives. Dine with him, but also attend your social parties. <P> Do the same with the items you have accumulated. It will make missing the person much easier when you don’t see the items on a daily basis. 1 If you find that something is so special to you that you absolutely can’t part with it, then put it in storage for a while. 4. Disconnect yourself from contact with the person. If you are certain your relationship is over yet you still talk to your ex or see him on occasion, this will make it much harder to stop missing him. If you can completely avoid seeing your ex, then you should do so. <P> But, when you want to continue relationship with the person you keep on missing, you need to be clear with your intention. According to me there might be following reasons: 1 You also miss someone special when you are in love with that person. 2 It might be infatuation (just for a few days). 3 You respect her/his qualities. Please don’t ever miss bad times you spend with that person. Always try to cherish the good moments and it will surely bring a smile on your face. Another thing which people do is to hide their feelings in front of person they are missing. You must keep your ego aside and convey your feelings to that person. Life is too short; if you love or you miss someone do let them know. If that person understands you, it would never ruin your relationship <P> And in reality, if you really think about it, to miss someone is to sort of miss a part of yourself. You miss yourself with that person. You miss who they made you become. You became alive. So in closing, and what I personally think, is that when you miss someone, you pretty much miss apart of yourself. Take a look around and realize that there is so much more of you to be loved, and not enough of you to be missed. <P> Answers. Relevance. Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Sometimes, especially when you're younger, people do not want the one thier missing to know thier missing them. They may feel vulanerable if that happens. Or they may feel let down, or even afraid to let the one thier missing down. I would bet if you're missing someone though, chances are high they are missing you too.

what is the specific genetic causes of muscular dystrophy
|
<P> The muscular dystrophies (MD) are a group a group of genetic diseases characterized by progressive weakness and degeneration of the skeletal or voluntary muscles which control movement. Duchenne MD is the most common form of MD and primarily affects boys. It is caused by the absence of dystrophin, a protein involved in maintaining the integrity of muscle. Onset is between 3 and 5 years and the disorder progresses rapidly. <P> Symptoms. The main sign of muscular dystrophy is progressive muscle weakness. Specific signs and symptoms begin at different ages and in different muscle groups, depending on the type of muscular dystrophy. <P> There are more than 20 specific genetic disorders considered to be Muscular Dystrophy. Most have the same result (a reduction in muscle strength due to weakening and deterioration) but these various types of Muscular Dystrophies are specific to different muscles in the body and different rates of degeneration. <P> Mutations in the DMD gene cause the Duchenne and Becker forms of muscular dystrophy. The DMD gene provides instructions for making a protein called dystrophin. This protein is located primarily in skeletal and cardiac muscle, where it helps stabilize and protect muscle fibers. Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies have similar signs and symptoms and are caused by different mutations in the same gene. The two conditions differ in their severity, age of onset, and rate of progression. <P> For example, Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Becker muscular dystrophy are caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene, whereas limb-girdle muscular dystrophies are caused by mutations in other genes. Duchenne MD is the most common form of MD and primarily affects boys. It is caused by the absence of dystrophin, a protein involved in maintaining the integrity of muscle. Onset is between 3 and 5 years and the disorder progresses rapidly. <P> Muscular dystrophy (MD) is a group of muscle diseases that weaken the musculoskeletal system and hamper locomotion. Muscular dystrophies are characterized by progressive skeletal muscle weakness, defects in muscle proteins, and the death of muscle cells and tissue. Specific muscle groups are affected by different types of muscular dystrophy. Often, there is a loss of muscle mass (wasting), which may be hard to see because some types of muscular dystrophy cause a buildup of fat and connective tissue that makes the muscle appear larger. This is called pseudohypertrophy. <P> Certain genes are involved in making proteins that protect muscle fibers from damage. Muscular dystrophy occurs when one of these genes is defective. Each form of muscular dystrophy is caused by a genetic mutation particular to that type of the disease. Many of these mutations are inherited. But some occur spontaneously in the mother's egg or the developing embryo and can be passed on to the next generation. 1 Symptoms. 2 Risk factors. <P> Muscular dystrophies are a group of genetic conditions characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting (atrophy). The Duchenne and Becker types of muscular dystrophy are two related conditions that primarily affect skeletal muscles, which are used for movement, and heart (cardiac) muscle. These forms of muscular dystrophy occur almost exclusively in males. Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies have similar signs and symptoms and are caused by different mutations in the same gene. The two conditions differ in their severity, age of onset, and rate of progression.

what does dsl modem do
|
<P> Telephone Lines. When you connect to the Internet, you might connect through a regular modem, through a local-area network connection in your office, through a cable modem or through a digital subscriber line (DSL) connection. DSL is a very high-speed connection that uses the same wires as a regular telephone line. <P> DSL modem. DSL modems are hardware devices that allow your computer to communicate with an Internet Service Provider over a DSL connection. A traditional phone line (RJ-11) connects to the back of the DSL modem, and a Cat5 (Ethernet) cable connects the modem to router or computer. <P> A modem (MOdulator DEModulator) allows one computer to connect to other systems. Modem is short for Modulator/Demodulator. A modem receives analog signals from the cable provider (in this case a cable modem) and modulates the carrier signal to encode it into a digital signal readable by your router or NIC. <P> There are a couple of different modems, and the one that will work for your situation depends on the internet connection that you have. 1 Cable – Cable modems use coaxial cables. 2 One end connects to the back of the modem and the other end connects to your wall or to the back of your cable box. What your modem does is translate the data that is sent to it so that it can display on your computer. Computer information is stored digitally, however information sent over phone and cable lines are analog waves. <P> Westell Model 6100 AXXDSL DSL router. A digital subscriber line (DSL) modem is a device used to connect a computer or router to a telephone line which provides the digital subscriber line service for connectivity to the Internet, which is often called DSL broadband. 1 DSL modems transfer data at a rate which is at least 10 to 20 times that of a voice-band modem. 2 DSL does not interfere with normal telephone calls on the telephone line, and does not require dialing a telephone number to initiate a connection, it is always on. <P> 1 DSL routers, the most common form of DSL modem, are external to the computer and wired to the computer's Ethernet port or its USB port, whereas voice-band modems are usually internal devices installed in the computer itself in a PCI interface slot in the back. 2 Internal DSL modems are rare but available. 1 DSL modems transfer data at a rate which is at least 10 to 20 times that of a voice-band modem. 2 DSL does not interfere with normal telephone calls on the telephone line, and does not require dialing a telephone number to initiate a connection, it is always on. <P> Best Answer: Digital Subscriber Line When you connect to the Internet, you might connect through a regular modem, through a local-area network connection in your office, through a cable modem or through a digital subscriber line (DSL) connection. * The company that offers DSL will usually provide the modem as part of the installation. But there are disadvantages: * A DSL connection works better when you are closer to the provider's central office. The farther away you get from the central office, the weaker the signal becomes. <P> Note: Most cable modems do not come with routers, while DSL modems usually have routers already built-in. To determine if you are currently being protected with a router, simply follow these easy steps: 1 Click Start in the lower left corner of your computer. 2 Click Run. 3 Type CMD and click OK. A modem is a device that modulates an analog carrier signal to encode digital information, and also demodulates such a carrier signal to decode the transmitted information. A common misconception is that if you only have one computer, you don’t need a router. <P> A modem is the tiny box or device that sits between your computer and your wall or cable box, depending on the type of internet connection you have. If you’re using dial-up or DSL then your modem will connect to the wall and if you’re using cable then it’ll hook up to your cable box or available coaxial cable. What your modem does is translate the data that is sent to it so that it can display on your computer. Computer information is stored digitally, however information sent over phone and cable lines are analog waves. <P> The word modem is short for modulator-demodulator which is essentially what it does. A computer moves data around on parallel wires by applying one or another voltage to each wire (representing 0's and 1's) and the voltage is read at the other end of the wires. This is digital communication. Modem is short for Modulator/Demodulator. A modem receives analog signals from the cable provider (in this case a cable modem) and modulates the carrier signal to encode it into a digital signal readable by your router or NIC.

what is a photovoltaic cell
|
<P> Sunlight consists of little particles of solar energy called photons. As a PV cell is exposed to this sunlight, many of the photons are reflected, pass right through, or absorbed by the solar cell. When enough photons are absorbed by the negative layer of the photovoltaic cell, electrons are freed from the negative semiconductor material <P> Solar cells are made of the same kinds of semiconductor materials, such as silicon, used in the microelectronics industry. For solar cells, a thin semiconductor wafer is specially treated to form an electric field, positive on one side and negative on the other. A number of solar cells electrically connected to each other and mounted in a support structure or frame is called a photovoltaic module. Modules are designed to supply electricity at a certain voltage, such as a common 12 volts system. The current produced is directly dependent on how much light strikes the module. <P> Photovoltaics (PV) is the name of a method of converting solar energy into direct current electricity using semiconducting materials that exhibit the photovoltaic effect, a phenomenon commonly studied in physics, photochemistry and electrochemistry. Photovoltaics are best known as a method for generating electric power by using solar cells to convert energy from the sun into a flow of electrons. The photovoltaic effect refers to photons of light exciting electrons into a higher state of energy, allowing them to act as charge carriers for an electric current. <P> Photovoltaic cells look similar to solar panels but they work in a different way. Solar panels are use to produce hot water or even steam. Photovoltaic panels convert the sunlight directly into electricity. A typical example of a device powered by photovoltaic cells is a solar powered calculator. This type of device only needs a small amount of electrical power to work and can even be used in a room with artificial light (bulbs / fluorescent light). <P> A solar cell or photovoltaic cell is a device which generates electricity directly from visible light by means of the photovoltaic effect. In order to generate useful power, it is necessary to connect a number of cells together to form a solar panel, also known as a photovoltaic module. <P> A solar cell is an electronic device which directly converts sunlight into electricity. Light shining on the solar cell produces both a current and a voltage to generate electric power. This process requires firstly, a material in which the absorption of light raises an electron to a higher energy state, and secondly, the movement of this higher energy electron from the solar cell into an external circuit. <P> The photovoltaic cell. The conversion of solar radiation into an electron current takes place in the photovoltaic cell, a device consisting of a thin sheet of semiconductor metal, very often made of suitably treated silicon. This treatment is characterised by various chemical processes including so-called doping. The direct conversion of solar energy into electrical energy, achieved with photovoltaic cells, exploits the physical phenomenon of the interaction of light radiation with valence electrons in semiconductor materials. This is known as the photovoltaic effect. <P> A solar cell, or photovoltaic cell, is an electrical device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect, which is a physical and chemical phenomenon. A photoelectrolytic cell (photoelectrochemical cell), on the other hand, refers either to a type of photovoltaic cell (like that developed by Edmond Becquerel and modern dye-sensitized solar cells), or to a device that splits water directly into hydrogen and oxygen using only solar illumination. <P> A photovoltaic cell (PV cell) is a specialized semiconductor diode that converts visible light into direct current (DC). Some PV cells can also convert infrared (IR) or ultraviolet (UV) radiation into DC electricity. Photovoltaic cells are an integral part of solar-electric energy systems, which are becoming increasingly important as alternative sources of utility power.

what does the communicating artery in the brain do
|
<P> An aneurysm is a weakening of a blood vessel wall which then forms an outpouching that fills with blood. Aneurysms can form anywhere along an artery's path. In the brain, the most common location for an aneurysm is along the vascular tree at the base of the brain, called the Circle of Willis. The most common types of aneurysms are found in the arteries that connect the two internal carotid arteries: 30% of aneurysms form in the anterior communicating artery (AComm) and 25% form in the posterior communicating artery (PComm). <P> Aneurysms of the posterior communicating artery are the third most common circle of Willis aneurysm (the most common are anterior communicating artery aneurysms) and can lead to oculomotor nerve palsy. The brain is supplied with blood by the internal carotid arteries and also by the posterior cerebral arteries; the posterior communicating arteries connects the two systems. This provides redundancies or collaterals in the cerebral circulation so that, if one system is blocked or narrowed, the other can take over. <P> The noun COMMUNICATING ARTERY has 1 sense: 1. any of three arteries in the brain that make up the circle of Willis. Familiarity information: COMMUNICATING ARTERY used as a noun is very rare. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. In human anatomy, the left and right posterior communicating arteries are arteries at the base of the brain that form part of the circle of Willis. Each posterior communicating artery connects the three cerebral arteries of the same side. The brain is supplied with blood by the internal carotid arteries and also by the posterior cerebral arteries; the posterior communicating arteries connects the two systems. This provides redundancies or collaterals in the cerebral circulation so that, if one system is blocked or narrowed, the other can take over. <P> At the base of the brain, the carotid and vertebrobasilar arteries form a circle of communicating arteries known as the Circle of Willis. From this circle, other arteries—the anterior cerebral artery (ACA), the middle cerebral artery (MCA), the posterior cerebral artery (PCA)—arise and travel to all parts of the brain. Normal function of the brain’s control centers is dependent upon adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients through a dense network of blood vessels. Blood is supplied to the brain, face, and scalp via two major sets of vessels: the right and left common carotid arteries and the right and left vertebral arteries. <P> A Swedish answered. The internal carotid arteries are the two large arteries -- located on either side of the head and neck -- that supply blood to the brain. The most common types of aneurysms are found in the arteries that connect the two internal carotid arteries: 30% of aneurysms form in the anterior communicating artery (AComm) and 25% form in the posterior communicating artery (PComm). The frequency of aneurysms in other locations: 1 4% in the pericallosal artery, which is a segment of another important pair of arteries called the anterior carotid arteries <P> Posterior communicating artery. In the brain, oxygenated blood travels through an extensive and central cerebral arterial circle. This network is called the circle of Willis. The posterior communicating artery makes up a large part of the circle's lower half. The posterior communicating artery develops late during fetal gestation (development that occurs while a baby is still in the womb) as embryonic vessels begin to fuse together. However, this does not lead to any frequently occurring congenital (birth) defects. <P> Posteriorly, it communicates with the posterior cerebral artery. The brain is supplied with blood by the internal carotid arteries and also by the posterior cerebral arteries; the posterior communicating arteries connects the two systems. This provides redundancies or collaterals in the cerebral circulation so that, if one system is blocked or narrowed, the other can take over. <P> Since the cerebral arterial circle is so central in the brain, problems with it may have life-threatening consequences. The posterior communicating artery is one of the potential sites of aneurysms, which are diseased areas of an artery that are weak and bulging (sometimes resulting in rupture). Most aneurysms occur in the anterior communicating artery, but in terms of frequency, the posterior comes in second. The posterior communicating artery develops late during fetal gestation (development that occurs while a baby is still in the womb) as embryonic vessels begin to fuse together. However, this does not lead to any frequently occurring congenital (birth) defects. <P> In human anatomy, the anterior communicating artery is a blood vessel of the brain that connects the left and right anterior cerebral arteries. The anterior communicating artery connects the two anterior cerebral arteries across the commencement of the longitudinal fissure. Sometimes this vessel is wanting, the two arteries joining together to form a single trunk, which afterward divides; or it may be wholly, or partially, divided into two. The arteries of the base of the brain. Anterior communicating artery at top. The temporal pole of the cerebrum and a portion of the cerebellar hemisphere have been removed on the right side.

where are freshwater biomes located
|
<P> Freshwater. By: Elyse, Andrea, Nick. Florida Everglades. Freshwater biomes are located everywhere on earth. The specific freshwater biome that we are focusing on is The Florida Everglades, located in southern Florida. From December to April, the Everglades are mild and pleasant. <P> Freshwater biomes are very important to life on Earth. They are home to many different species and provide a lot of resources. In this lesson, we will go over what a freshwater biome is, where they are located, and the different plants and animals that inhabit them. (Wetlands are not always considered freshwater biomes because they usually have too high of a salt content.). Lakes and ponds are considered still water since they do not move very fast. Rivers and streams move water from one area to another and are known as moving waters. <P> The freshwater biome is a location where there is plenty of nutrition and minerals. That is why so many types of plants and animals are able to thrive in such a location. You may not realize it but salt water can be very harsh. Such conditions aren’t ideal for many forms of plants and animal life. Description of Freshwater Biome. A freshwater biome is one that many people overlook the importance of. They are much smaller bodies of water, but important just the same. These freshwater biomes include lakes, rivers, streams, and creeks. They all dump water into a marsh area, typically from the mouth of the rivers. Some that people never consider though include ditches, gutters, canals, and even puddles <P> Climate of a Freshwater Biome. The freshwater biome covers only 0.8% of the total water on this Earth, yet the water which makes up this biome are distributed unevenly throughout the globe (W2). As a result the climate of these Biomes is greatly diverse depending on the region (W2). The climate of freshwater biomes is determined by by a number of factors including location, season and depth of water as the most prominent ones (W2). On average the temperatures will decline as the water gets deeper. <P> Interesting Freshwater Biome Facts: Only 3% of the water on Earth comes from freshwater biomes. There are over 700 different species of fish that live in a freshwater biome. 99% of all freshwater is either in the form of ice or located in an aquifer. Many animals besides fish live in freshwater biomes. This includes crocodiles, hippopotamus, turtles, and frogs. <P> In Biomes.

what is butter lettuce
|
<P> Butter lettuce leaves become progressively smaller toward the heart. Butter lettuce, or butterhead, is one of the four main types of annual lettuce (Lactuca sativa) widely available in the United States, along with leaf, crisphead and romaine varieties. Red-leaf varieties of butter lettuce feature leaves that are similar to green-leaf varieties but have distinctive edges, swirls or speckles of red on the foliage. <P> Butter Lettuce Also called Boston and Bibb lettuce, good-quality butter lettuce will have fairly large, loose heads with thick leaves and even green coloring. Scratch the stalk and smell. A sweet or bitter smell means sweet or bitter flavor. Experts suggest that Butter lettuce should be stored in a perforated bag in the vegetable crisper of the refrigerator. Select nice unwilted green leaves with no signs of damage or yellowing. Its wide leaves can be used to wrap whipped goat cheese, or fresh cheese such as ricotta or cottage cheese seasoned with herbs. <P> Grower. Butter lettuce is a leaf lettuce. Leaf varieties have loose heads and are known as the cut and come again lettuces as they can be harvested multiple times from a single plant. They are great short season varieties as well as more heat-tolerant than head lettuce. Butter lettuce's large, tender, mild flavored leaves lend themselves to a number of culinary applications. Add to salads or sandwiches, or use whole leaves as cups to hold fillings such as minced chicken or Korean BBQ. It's vibrant color also makes it perfect for garnishing serving dishes and buffets. <P> Butter lettuce in field Photo Credit bangkokhappiness/iStock/Getty Images. Butter lettuce is a variety of butterhead lettuce, known for its smooth, loosely bunched, tender leaves. Because of its delicacy, this heading lettuce is often kept in plastic clamshell containers in grocery stores to protect it from accidental bruising. <P> Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is an annual plant of the daisy family Asteraceae. It is most often grown as a leaf vegetable, but sometimes for its stem and seeds. Lettuce spread to the Greeks and Romans, the latter of whom gave it the name lactuca , from which the English lettuce is ultimately derived. By 50 AD, multiple types were described, and lettuce appeared often in medieval writings, including several herbals. <P> One of two major kinds of lettuce (the other being crisphead), butter lettuce's silken leaves grow in softly folding heads. Two popular varieties of butter lettuce are Boston and Bibb; both have a delicate flavor and range from pale green to medium green. Great in salads, especially with creamy dressings, its pretty cupped leaves also make a good bed for other foods. <P> The two most widely known and available types of butter lettuce in the United States are Boston and Bibb.. These types are so prevalent that their names are frequently interchanged with the terms butter lettuce and butterhead. Red-leaf varieties of butter lettuce feature leaves that are similar to green-leaf varieties but have distinctive edges, swirls or speckles of red on the foliage. <P> Selection Butter lettuce has a slightly sweet, buttery flavor. Good-quality Butter lettuce will have fairly large, loose heads with thick leaves and even green coloring. Scratch the stalk and smell. A sweet or bitter smell means sweet or bitter flavor. Avoid Avoid product with thin, wilted leaves and brown spots near the stalk end. Don't throw away lettuce, greens, celery, etc that has been in your refrigerator a little too long and gone limp. Revive most leafy vegetables by cutting a small amount from the stem-end, soaking in warm (100 degree) water for 5 minutes, drain and refrige. Modern lettuce had its start as a Mediterranean weed. <P> Butter lettuce is very fragile and its leaves wilt quickly. Experts suggest that Butter lettuce should be stored in a perforated bag in the vegetable crisper of the refrigerator. Select nice unwilted green leaves with no signs of damage or yellowing. Its wide leaves can be used to wrap whipped goat cheese, or fresh cheese such as ricotta or cottage cheese seasoned with herbs.

what particles form radioactive
|
<P> This energy is released in the form of subatomic particles (alpha and beta) or waves (gamma and x rays). Most elements and their atoms are not radioactive. A few radioactive elements, like uranium, radium, and thorium, occur in nature. <P> Radiation Basics. Radiation is energy given off by matter in the form of rays or high-speed particles. All matter is composed of atoms. Atoms are made up of various parts; the nucleus contains minute particles called protons and neutrons, and the atom's outer shell contains other particles called electrons. <P> Some materials are radioactive because the nucleus of each atom is unstable and gives out nuclear radiation in the form of alpha particles, beta particles or gamma rays. The radiation can be detected using a Geiger counter. Nuclear reactors use a type of nuclear reaction called nuclear fission. <P> Radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay or radioactivity, is the process by which a nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by emitting radiation. A material that spontaneously emits such radiation — which includes alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays and conversion electrons — is considered radioactive. <P> Almost zero. -1. Some materials are radioactive because the nucleus of each atom is unstable and can decay, or split up, by giving out nuclear radiation in the form of alpha particles, beta particles or gamma rays. The nuclear radiation given off can be detected using a Geiger counter.

what does the eardrum do
|
<P> If you have any of the symptoms of a ruptured eardrum, the doctor will do an otoscopic exam. An otoscope is an instrument with a light that's used to look inside the ear. In most cases, if there is a hole or tear in the eardrum, the doctor will be able to see it. <P> Ruptured eardrum. A ruptured eardrum — or perforated tympanic membrane as it's medically known — is a hole or tear in your eardrum, the thin tissue that separates your ear canal from your middle ear. A ruptured eardrum can result in hearing loss. <P> Dull eardrum: A dull eardrum usually indicates there is a little fluid in the middle ear space. It does not always mean an associated infection. Ear drum usually is like plastic wrap-you can see through it. Dull ear drum looks more like waxed paper. Depends: A dull or absent light reflex from the eardrum may be a sign of a middle ear infection or fluid. The eardrum may be red and bulging if there is an infection. Amber liquid or bubbles behind the eardrum are often seen if fluid collects in the middle ear. <P> A ruptured eardrum is a tear in the thin membrane that separates your outer ear from your inner ear. That membrane, known as the tympanic membrane, is made of tissue that resembles skin. The eardrum serves two important functions in your ear. Another common cause of a ruptured eardrum is poking the eardrum with a foreign object, such as a cotton-tipped swab or a bobby pin that's being used to clean wax out of the ear canal. Sometimes children can puncture their own eardrum by putting objects such as a stick or a small toy in their ear. 1 | 2 | 3. <P> Middle ear infections may cause pain, hearing loss, and spontaneous rupture of the eardrum, resulting in a perforation. In this case,there may be infected or bloody drainage from the ear. Infections can cause a hole in the eardrum as a side effect of otitis media. Symptoms of acuteotitis media (middle ear fluid with signs of infection) include a senese of fullness in the ear, some hearing loss, pain, and fever. <P> A number of things can cause the eardrum to rupture; one of the most common causes is an ear infection. When the middle ear is infected, pressure builds up and pushes against the eardrum. When the pressure gets too great, it can cause the eardrum to perforate. Another common cause of a ruptured eardrum is poking the eardrum with a foreign object, such as a cotton-tipped swab or a bobby pin that's being used to clean wax out of the ear canal. Sometimes children can puncture their own eardrum by putting objects such as a stick or a small toy in their ear. 1 | 2 | 3. <P> Not to be confused with the secondary tympanic membrane of the round window. In human anatomy, the eardrum, or tympanic membrane, is a thin, cone-shaped membrane that separates the external ear from the middle ear in humans and other tetrapods. Its function is to transmit sound from the air to the ossicles inside the middle ear, and then to the oval window in the fluid-filled cochlea. Hence, it ultimately converts and amplifies vibration in air to vibration in fluid. The malleus bone bridges the gap between the eardrum and the other ossicle <P> A hole or rupture in the eardrum, a thin membrane that separates the ear canal and the middle ear, is called a perforated eardrum. The medical term for eardrum is tympanic membrane. In this case,there may be infected or bloody drainage from the ear. Infections can cause a hole in the eardrum as a side effect of otitis media. Symptoms of acuteotitis media (middle ear fluid with signs of infection) include a senese of fullness in the ear, some hearing loss, pain, and fever. <P> Causes of a ruptured, or perforated, eardrum may include: 1 Middle ear infection (otitis media). 2 A middle ear infection often results in the accumulation of fluids in your middle ear. 3 Pressure from these fluids can cause the eardrum to rupture. <P> Once the sound waves travel into the ear canal, they vibrate the tympanic membrane, commonly called the eardrum. The eardrum is a thin, cone-shaped piece of skin, about 10 millimeters (0.4 inches) wide. It is positioned between the ear canal and the middle ear. The middle ear is connected to the throat via the eustachian tube. Since air from the atmosphere flows in from your outer ear as well as your mouth, the air pressure on both sides of the eardrum remains equal. This pulls the eardrum and the connected bones in two different directions, so the drum becomes more rigid. When this happens, the ear does not pick up as much noise at the low end of the audible spectrum, so the loud noise is dampened.

what is paranasal sinus mucosal disease
|
<P> Paranasal sinus disease, also called a sinus infection, is a condition that causes inflamed nasal passages, a feeling of pressure in the face, coughing, fever, bad breath, nasal congestion and a thick mucous buildup. Shares & Saves. Save. Paranasal sinus disease is an infection of the sinuses that can be quite bothersome for anyone who has contracted it.

Sinusitis is an inflammation of the mucosal lining of the paranasal sinuses. As the mucosa of the sinuses is continuous with that of the nose, rhinosinusitis is a more suitable term. Sinusitis can be subdivided into acute, subacute, and chronic disease. Acute sinusitis is defined as disease lasting less than 1 month. <P> This may also include a runny nose, yellow or green discharge and pain when you meet cold air. In a few days, this can also incorporate toothache, a fever, earache, a stuffy nose and even problems with your vision. Maxillary sinus disease is a term given to an infection of the maxillary sinus. In many cases, chronic sinus disease can be treated with antibiotics and nasal sprays as prescribed by the doctor or, in milder cases, via over the counter or homeopathic remedies. As quite a lot is know about sinusitis today, there are plenty of options available for you. <P> Some of the usual symptoms of Paranasal sinus disease are headache, swelling, and pain on the jaw, slow fever and toothache. Your sinus might also occur along with nasal discharge with pus which is green to yellow in color. After knowing what paranasal sinus disease is as well as its symptoms, you must also identify what are the possible ways of getting rid of it. Humidifiers and decongestants are the typical treatment for paranasal sinus disease. Irrigation using saline water is also used. <P> As you can see, sinus disease does not have to be that serious because it is relatively easy to take the swelling down and give the functions of the cavities a kick start if you realize what is wrong with you in the first place. In many cases, chronic sinus disease can be treated with antibiotics and nasal sprays as prescribed by the doctor or, in milder cases, via over the counter or homeopathic remedies. As quite a lot is know about sinusitis today, there are plenty of options available for you. <P> Inflammatory paranasal sinus disease. Inflammatory sinus disease is the most common disease process involving the paranasal sinuses. When the maxillary sinus is involved, it is the disease entity where a dentist will most often be asked to make a differential diagnosis. Anatomy, function and disease of the paranasal sinuses. The paranasal sinuses, along with the turbinates, facilitate the function of the nasal space in the warming and humidification of air and contribute to the body's defences against microbial ingress. <P> Recent research on inflammatory sinus disease has implicated a central role for the ethmoid labyrinth, which may influence changes in the maxillary and frontal sinuses. CT scan can provide excellent definition of the paranasal sinuses and particularly the ethmoids, which is a prerequisite for endoscopic surgery. Radiographic sign of maxillary sinus mucosal thickening is common finding in routine outpatient paranasal sinus x-rays.Radiography can improve the diagnostic accuracy of sinusitis and correlate well with sinus aspiration.However,many issues remain unsolved,especially the question of when to order CT. <P> Sinus disease, often referred to as paranasal sinus disease, is a debilitating condition which can affect everyone of us. Sinus disease is undoubtedly one of the most uncomfortable ailments you can experience without being termed seriously ill. In many cases, chronic sinus disease can be treated with antibiotics and nasal sprays as prescribed by the doctor or, in milder cases, via over the counter or homeopathic remedies. As quite a lot is know about sinusitis today, there are plenty of options available for you.

Plus pickup time for materials. I probably would give my carpenter 12 hours of labor which gives him some set up time for the work station,mitre saw,etc. 12 hours x $48 per hour = $576 labor. Basemold should be no more than $1.25 per foot and base mold around .38 per foot. That's around $400 for materials. So without painting or staining + fill nail holes. I would say no more than $ 1,000 for labor and materials. 90% of the labor in moulding install is the corners. If you've got lots of architectural details that could double or triple the number of miters that have to cut, and that would push the labor up a lot.

normal range of lipids profile
|
<P> The lipid profile normal values of high density lipoprotein are 30 to 60 mg per dl. If a person’s HDL is lesser than the lipid profile normal values, he or she may be at risk of having a heart disease since the HDL is not enough to transport the accumulated cholesterol in the arteries to the liver for proper usage. 1 Thus, when the cholesterol level is slightly above the lipid profile normal value then immediate management should be the focus to prevent it from going higher. 2 Having a cholesterol level of 240 mg per dl and above means that the person is at risk of developing heart diseases such as atherosclerosis. <P> A simple investigation called the lipid profile done by drawing your blood is the answer (after an overnight fasting and having a diet low in fat for three days) is recommended. This test measures the triglyceride levels, total cholesterol, LDL, VLDL and HDL levels. A simple blood test is all you need to check for high cholesterol, triglyceride, VLDL and HDL levels and your lipid range. And, the procedure is quite simple all you need to do is go to a pathology lab where some blood from your arm will be drawn for testing. <P> The lipid profile normal values for low density lipoprotein are 100 to 129 mg per dl. If the person has 130 to 189 mg per dl LDL, he/she is considered have high low density lipoprotein; but if the person has 190 mg per dl and above then the person has very high low density lipoprotein. 1 Thus, when the cholesterol level is slightly above the lipid profile normal value then immediate management should be the focus to prevent it from going higher. 2 Having a cholesterol level of 240 mg per dl and above means that the person is at risk of developing heart diseases such as atherosclerosis. <P> A lipid profile or a lipid panel is a type of blood test that is used to check the levels of cholesterol in the blood. A lipid profile typically indicates the following: 1 HDL cholesterol. 2 Total cholesterol. 3 Triglycerides, which is a type of fat that is usually increased by alcohol and sweets. 4 LDL cholesterol. Lipid profile normal values. – by admin 0. Lipid refers to the fatty substances that are present in the outer linings or membranes of the cells in animals as well as in the blood circulation. It is commonly referred to as <P> Triglycerides are fats that can cause the narrowing of the arteries if too much of it has accumulated in the blood. The lipid profile normal values for triglyceride are 150 mg per dl and below. Having 200 mg per dl of triglyceride level makes the person more prone to having atherosclerosis. Knowing the lipid profile normal values and doing the necessary steps to keep to these desirable values will help in averting heart diseases. 1 Thus, when the cholesterol level is slightly above the lipid profile normal value then immediate management should be the focus to prevent it from going higher. 2 Having a cholesterol level of 240 mg per dl and above means that the person is at risk of developing heart diseases such as <P> 1 The lipid profile normal values or the LDL cholesterol values for most individuals should be below 130 mg/dL i.e. milligrams (mg) of cholesterol per deciliter (dL) of blood OR 3.4 mmol/L i.e. millimoles (mmol) of cholesterol per liter (L) of blood.

It is commonly referred to as cholesterol <P> High: At or above 240 mg/dL. If your total cholesterol is high, you have twice the risk for heart disease as a person with normal total cholesterol. Here is the adult range for HDL cholesterol: Normal: 35 to 65 mg/dL for men, 35 to 80 mg/dL for women. If your number is less than 25 mg/dL, your risk for coronary heart disease is doubled. If your number is between 60 and 74 mg/dL, your risk for coronary heart disease is below average <P> This test may be measured any time of the day without fasting. However, if the test is drawn as part of a total lipid profile, it requires a 12-hour fast (no food or drink, except water). For the most accurate results, wait at least two months after a heart attack, surgery, infection, injury or pregnancy to check cholesterol levels. Goal values: 1 Less than 70 mg/dL for those with heart or blood vessel disease and for other patients at very high risk of heart disease (those with metabolic syndrome). 2 Less than 100 mg/dL for high risk patients (e.g., some patients who have multiple heart disease risk factors). <P> Reference Range. The standard lipid profile, as recommended by the Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III), consists of direct measurement of total cholesterol, HDL-C, and triglycerides, with a calculated LDL-C, obtained after a 9-hour to 12-hour fast.

what are the resins of pitch pines
|
<P> You can form fishhooks with the glue, repair holes in water containers, repair the soles of shoes, apply feathers to homemade arrows or harden the ends of hunting spears to keep them from splintering, etc. 5. Start a fire with pine resin. You can use a pine resin to start a fire in damp conditions. 3. Light and heat. Pine resin can be used to make a lamp. Look for a stone with depression, a can, a clam shell or anything that can be filled with resin. For a wick, use some twisted cloth. Fill the depression with the resin, lay the wick on top and ignite the wick. <P> 2. Use the resin to make shoes and other items waterproof. Heat the resin to liquid form and then apply it to the material you want to make impervious to water like the lower half of your hiking boots. You can also use resin to seal seams, repair holes in shoes, boats or structures to prevent leaks. 3. Light and heat. Pine resin can be used to make a lamp.

Fill the depression with the resin, lay the wick on top and ignite the wick. <P> Pine resin has multiple uses for survival. This sap is produced by the pine tree to seal up cuts or damages to the tree. If you ever find yourself lost in a wilderness environment, having a pine tree in the area is one of the best case scenarios you can hope for. 3. Light and heat.

The separation of the oleo-resin into the essential oil (spirit of turpentine) and common rosin is accomplished by distillation in large copper stills. <P> Several genera of conifers produce resin in copious quantities, which are then harvested and put to a wide variety of uses. These have made resin one of the most important non-wood products from conifers. The following sections describe some of the more important sources and uses of conifer resins. Virtually all pines will yield resin if tapped. Key factors that determine feasibility for tapping are the quality (terpene content) and quantity of resin obtained. Today, only the diploxylon (hard) pines are commercially tapped. <P> Wilderness. Survival Uses for Pine Resin. Pine resin or pitch is the secretion from pine trees caused by cuts in the tree trunk or from broken limbs. The trees secrete the resin to seal up any cuts or damage to the tree. If you find yourself lost or stranded in a wilderness environment one of the best-case scenarios is that there are pine trees in the area. Find some hardened pine resin and some pine sticks/branches. Split the sticks and look for streaks of resin in the wood. Use magnesium shavings and a flint bar or you can use a Ferro rod to ignite the pitch. Lay some dried pine needles near the pitch and <P> Pitch is a name for any of a number of viscoelastic, solid polymers. Pitch can be natural or manufactured, derived from petroleum, coal tar or plants. Various forms of pitch may also be called tar, bitumen or asphalt. Pitch produced from plants is also known as resin. Some products made from plant resin are also known as rosin. Pitch was traditionally used to help caulk the seams of wooden sailing vessels (see shipbuilding) <P> At room temperature rosin is brittle, but it melts at stove-top temperature. It chiefly consists of various resin acids, especially abietic acid. The term colophony comes from colophonia resina or resin from the pine trees of Colophon , an ancient Ionic city.

Stir the resin with a stick as it liquefies. Remove the tuna can from the heat source and pour the hot resin into a clean tuna can 1/3 of the way full. Next, add a “filler material” to the tuna can of resin. You can use dung from any herbivore. I like using rabbit droppings that are so dry that they turn to dust when you work them into the pitch. You can also use hardwood ash, bone dust, sawdust, animal hair, or dried up stems from hearty plant stalks.

employee net earnings definition
|
<P> For example, a disposable earnings definition might specify the calculation of an employee's gross earnings minus all federal and state taxes and health insurance premiums. Note: Use the calculation formula to define which taxes subtract from the disposable earnings. See Setting Up Garnishment Rules. <P> Definition. Net Income per employee is frequently used as a profitability metric as to how companies have been performing over the last couple of years. Higher net income per employees is generally seen as a favorable sign. Net Income per employee is frequently used as a profitability metric as to how companies have been performing over the last couple of years <P> Net Income per Employee (NIPE) is a company's net income divided by the number of employees. In general, the higher the number, the more efficient the company uses its employees, however the numbers are only directly comparable when comparing companies of a very similar nature. <P> An employee earnings report is a record that details an employee's payroll history. Employee earnings reports, or pay stubs, are usually attached to employee paychecks. These reports often have columns totaling how many employee hours were worked, their net pay, gross pay, deductions from payroll, and other year-to-date payroll information. Many times employers also report payroll taxes on employee earnings reports like FICA, FUTA, SUTA taxes. <P> The information that is reported on an employee earnings report is taken directly from the employer's payroll register. Here is an example of a typical employee earnings report. As you can see, the employee's name, employee number, social security number, pay period, check date, regular hours worked, and overtime hours worked are reported. Download this accounting example in excel. These reports often have columns totaling how many employee hours were worked, their net pay, gross pay, deductions from payroll, and other year-to-date payroll information. Many times employers also report payroll taxes on employee earnings reports like FICA, FUTA, SUTA taxes. <P> DEFINITION of 'Net Income-NI'. 1. A company's total earnings (or profit). Net income is calculated by taking revenues and adjusting for the cost of doing business, depreciation, interest, taxes and other expenses. This number is found on a company's income statement and is an important measure of how profitable the company is over a period of time. <P> An employee earnings record is a record for each payroll for each employee. The employee earnings record include the following information for each paycheck: 1 Gross pay. 2 Federal, state, and local income tax withheld. 3 FICA tax deductions (social security and Medicare). 4 Other voluntary deductions. If a payroll audit is done by the IRS or state agency, the employee earnings record is one of the first things they look at. All earnings, deductions, and withholding must be recorded in a file for each employee for every payroll. <P> Net income can be distributed among holders of common stock as a dividend or held by the firm as an addition to retained earnings. As profit and earnings are used synonymously for income (also depending on UK and US usage), net earnings and net profit are commonly found as synonyms for net income. In the context of the presentation of financial statements, the IFRS Foundation defines net income as synonymous with profit and loss. Net income is a distinct accounting concept from profit. Net income can also be calculated by adding a company's operating income to non-operating income and then subtracting off taxes.

what does MPV mean
|
<P> Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a machine-calculated measurement of the average size of platelets found in blood and is typically included in blood tests as part of the CBC. Since the average platelet size is larger when the body is producing increased numbers of platelets, the MPV test results can be used to make inferences about platelet production in bone marrow or platelet destruction problems. <P> Hello Momoffive, MPV on a CBC stands for mean platelet value, which is basically a measure of platelet size. It varies depending on when the CBC is done because new platelets are larger and get smaller as they age. If you had your CBC done shortly after your bone marrow released new platelets the MPV will be higher. <P> Another clue in the CBC is the mean platelet volume or MPV, which is an estimate of the average size of platelets in the blood. A low MPV number may suggest platelet production problem, whereas, a high number may indicate increased destruction. <P> mean platelet volume (MPV) test, a blood test that measures the volume of a large number of platelets as determined by an automated analyzer. The MPV is very useful in the differential diagnosis of thrombocytopenic disorders. <P> Mean Platelet Volume. MPV is otherwise known as the Mean Platelet Volume. Of course, you may be wondering why this particular count has any importance to your daily health, and the answer is quite simple. Now, let's quickly go over what platelets do in your body and how they can impact your well-being. MPV is a count of how large your platelets actually are. The purpose of measuring the size of the platelets is also to determine whether or not there is an issue with the platelet production in the bone marrow. <P> Having a Low MPV indicates that the platelet count in your blood is lower than normal and that you are in danger of suffering more blood loss in case you get injured. Besides this, a low MPV is also considered a symptom of many other diseases and disorders. It is a reading which represents the size of the platelets in a blood sample and is determined by a machine. CBC or Complete Blood Profile is the test in which the calculation of this reading is usually included. <P> Mean Platelet Volume or MPV blood test is primarily ordered to assess the production of platelet in the bone marrow by measuring the size of the platelet in the bloodstream. Typically, a person with serious platelet production problem will register a low count of platelets. <P> MPV is the abbreviated form of Mean Platelet Volume. It is a reading which represents the size of the platelets in a blood sample and is determined by a machine. CBC or Complete Blood Profile is the test in which the calculation of this reading is usually included. <P> MPV is mean platelet volume. The average normal range for MPV is a blood test is around 7.5-10.5 fl. A low MPV can mean many things. In a female during her reproductive years her MPV will be low for the first few days of menses [her period]. Platelet count is high in a woman after delivering a child and newborns have naturally low levels. Basically all it means is you have a low platelet count. <P> MPV stands for mean platelet volume. This value is calculated by automated blood cell counters and is reported as part of a complete blood count (CBC) test. Platelets are the smallest blood cells. They clump together into a plug at bleeding sites, helping to form blood clots.

how long does a heart catheter procedure take
|
<P> Ask your doctor what drugs should be taken on the day of your cardiac cath. You may be told to stop taking certain medications, such as Coumadin (a blood thinner), for a few days before the procedure. If you have diabetes, ask your doctor how to adjust your diabetes drugs the day of your test. A nurse will start an intravenous (IV) line in your arm so that medications and fluids can be administered through your vein during the procedure. The cardiac cath room looks similar to an operating room. <P> How long will the procedure last? A cardiac catheterization usually takes 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remember, this does not include the time it takes for preparation or transportation to and from the cardiac catheterization lab, which may result in a total time of two to three hours. <P> During a cardiac catheterization, a long, narrow tube called a catheter is inserted through a plastic introducer sheath (a short, hollow tube that is inserted into a blood vessel in your leg or arm). The catheter is guided through the blood vessel to the coronary arteries with the aid of a special x-ray machine. The cardiac catheterization procedure itself generally takes 30 minutes, but the preparation and recovery time add several hours to your appointment time (five to nine hours or longer). <P> A Dr. Benjamin K. Yang, MD, Cardiology (Cardiovascular Disease), answered on behalf of Sky Ridge Medical Center. It takes only about 30 minutes to take the pictures during a cardiac catheterization procedure. Other time is for set-up to make sure that everything is sterile so no infection occurs. If doctors need to fix something, however, the procedure time can extend to about an hour and a half or two hours, and sometimes even longer. It depends on the complexity of the case and the severity of the disease. <P> Skin Problems The routine cardiac catheterization usually takes less than 30 minutes to complete. However, in order to start the procedure the patient must be given informed consent, taken to the catheterization lab and prepped and prepared with sterile drapes and other equipment; this may take 30 minutes by itself. Other time is for set-up to make sure that everything is sterile so no infection occurs. If doctors need to fix something, however, the procedure time can extend to about an hour and a half or two hours, and sometimes even longer. It depends on the complexity of the case and the severity of the disease. <P> 1 This procedure takes place in a special hospital room called an electrophysiology (EP) lab or a cardiac catheterization (cath) lab. 2 It takes 2 to 4 hours. 3 Your doctor will tell you what to eat and drink during the 24 hours before the test. 1 This destroys heart muscle cells in a very small area (about 1/5 of an inch) that are responsible for the extra impulses that caused your rapid heartbeats. 2 Catheter ablation usually takes 2 to 4 hours. 3 If you have more than one area of abnormal tissue, the procedure will take longer. <P> Cardiac catheterization (KATH-eh-ter-ih-ZA-shun) is a medical procedure used to diagnose and treat some heart conditions. A long, thin, flexible tube called a catheter is put into a blood vessel in your arm, groin (upper thigh), or neck and threaded to your heart. Through the catheter, your doctor can do diagnostic tests and treatments on your heart. For example, your doctor may put a special type of dye in the catheter. The dye will flow through your bloodstream to your heart. Then, your doctor will take x-ray pictures of your heart. <P> A cardiac cath procedure usually takes about 30 minutes (and longer if you undergo an intervention), but the preparation and recovery time add several hours. Plan on being at the hospital all day for the procedure. A nurse will start an intravenous (IV) line in your arm so that medications and fluids can be administered through your vein during the procedure. The cardiac cath room looks similar to an operating room. <P> The actual left heart cath procedure usually takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes. However, it may take longer if the patient has unusual anatomy of the arteries and there are technical difficulties. An additional 10 to 15 minutes are needed if the patient requires right heart catheterization. Approximately three to four hours after the procedure, the patient gets out of bed. The patient is usually discharged within six hours of the procedure unless additional treatment or procedures are required.

why is wool dense
|
<P> Confidence votes 258. Wool is the dense, warm coat of sheep, also called a fleece. The hair of sheep has many unique properties that make it well suited to textile production. Wool is used in a variety of textiles and can be found woven or knitted. It takes away moisture from skin and keeps dry. Cotton is a soft, white, downy substance consisting of the hairs or fibers attached to the seeds of plants of the mallow family, used in making fabrics, thread, wadding, etc. <P> Wool is often used in winter coats because it is durable and rain resistant. Wool, which has been used to make textiles since 8000 BCE, has traditionally been spun on wheels. An estimated 80% of the world's wool is used to make sweaters, coats, and other garments. Dyed wool may be used in a variety of craft projects. Wool yarn can be used for knitting. People have been using wool to keep warm for thousands of years. Post 20. It's important to remember when washing wool garments to use the gentle cycle and cold water. Warm water might cause the wool to shrink. Also, it can be tempting to put the wool garment in the dryer on the delicate setting, but this is a bad idea. <P> Boiled wool is a special type of fabric primarily used in berets, scarves, vests, cardigans, coats and jackets. Created by a mechanical process using water and agitation, shrinking knitted or woven wool or wool-blend fabrics, compressing and interlocking the fibers into a tighter felt-like mass. Boiled wool/felt yardage is created commercially by first weaving or knitting wool fibers resulting in a fabric of uniform thickness. The material may either be dyed first or left natural, with or without design and embellishment. <P> Mineral wool. Mineral wool is a porous material that traps the air, making it one of the best insulating materials. The porous and elastic structure of the wool also absorbs noise. Mineral wool is incombustible and does not fuel fire or propagate flames <P> Adorable animal families that will make you aww. Wool is the dense, warm coat of sheep, also called a fleece.

how much deposit do i need for buying a house nationwide
|
<P> 25% - 40% deposit: The best rates on the market, as cheap as it gets. Also, remember your income will be taken into account, so even if you have-for example-a 20% deposit for a 500,000 property, you'll also need earnings well in excess of 100,000 a year before lenders will consider that you can afford the mortgage. Full best buy comparisons to see top rates: MSE Mortgage Best Buys. <P> So for a £200,000 house you would need to have £20,000 in savings for a 90% mortgage or £10,000 in savings for a 95% mortgage. However 100% mortgages, where you don’t need any deposit, are virtually non-existent unless you have additional financial help from your family. In recent years first time buyers have typically used a 20% deposit to buy a house. But don’t despair if you’re struggling to save a large deposit there are still many mortgages out there for first time buyers. <P> For example, buy to let mortgages require a larger deposit than regular loans (typically 25%), and you’ll need to show the lender that the rent will cover your interest payments on the mortgage by at least 125% – in case the property stands empty for a while or needs maintenance. <P> Buying with a 10% deposit. Always think of your deposit as a percentage of the property you want to buy. The larger the percentage, the cheaper the interest rate and the easier you will find it to get a mortgage. You will need a bare minimum of a 10% deposit to get a mortgage with most banks and building societies. Before the credit crunch in 2007, banks would regularly hand out mortgages to people with no savings. These loans were worth 100% or more of a property’s value. Then the recession hit, mortgage funding dried up and house prices fell, leaving thousands of people owing more to the bank than their house was worth. <P> 90%, 95% and 100% mortgages. The number of 90% and 95% mortgages on the market is on the increase so provided you meet lenders’ affordability criteria if you have a 10% or 5% deposit it may be possible for you to get a mortgage. In recent years first time buyers have typically used a 20% deposit to buy a house. But don’t despair if you’re struggling to save a large deposit there are still many mortgages out there for first time buyers. <P> The cheapest mortgage deals on the market will typically require you to have a 40% deposit or more, so on a £150,000 property this would mean a deposit of £60,000. However, saving up a 40% deposit is unrealistic for many people. Minimum mortgage deposit. In the current mortgage market you’ll need a deposit of at least 5% of a property’s value to get a mortgage. A lender would then lend you 95% of the property’s value. So, if you wanted to buy a £150,000 property you would need to save up at least £7,500 and borrow £142,500. But 5% is just the minimum; there are a few different reasons why you would usually be better off with a bigger mortgage deposit <P> Suddenly 100% mortgages didn’t seem such a great idea after all. These days, banks are much more cautious about lending. Most will insist that you have a deposit worth at least 10% of the value of the property you’re buying. So if you are buying a house for £200,000, you’ll need to put down at least £20,000. Before the credit crunch in 2007, banks would regularly hand out mortgages to people with no savings. These loans were worth 100% or more of a property’s value. Then the recession hit, mortgage funding dried up and house prices fell, leaving thousands of people owing more to the bank than their house was worth. <P> Nationwide's Save to Buy account offers an interest rate of 2pc and the opportunity to apply for a 95pc mortgage once you have saved for at least six months. Savers who are granted a mortgage receive the added bonus of a cashback reward up to £1,000. In the north east, where the average first–time property costs £104,000, someone could qualify for Help to Buy if he or she earned £20,000. In London, because the average first–time property is so much more expensive at £256,000, they would need to earn £54,000. <P> Most lenders insist on a deposit of at least 10% of the property’s value. Nationwide is a rare exception, although eligibility is complicated. The building society has a scheme called Save To Buy where you must save every month for six months in order to qualify for a mortgage with only a 5% deposit. Before the credit crunch in 2007, banks would regularly hand out mortgages to people with no savings. These loans were worth 100% or more of a property’s value.

what types of muscle would be affected in a patient with DMD
|
<P> Muscular dystrophy (MD) is a group of muscle diseases that weaken the musculoskeletal system and hamper locomotion. Muscular dystrophies are characterized by progressive skeletal muscle weakness, defects in muscle proteins, and the death of muscle cells and tissue. The main cause of the Duchenne and Becker types of muscular dystrophy is the muscle tissue's cytoskeletal impairment to properly create the functional protein dystrophin and dystrophin-associated protein complex. <P> The muscular dystrophies are a group of genetic diseases that affect skeletal muscles and often also heart muscle. The symptoms include muscle weakness and progressive muscle wasting. Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common and a very severe form of the disease. It is caused by a genetic fault which prevents the production of a protein called dystrophin. Without dystrophin, muscles are fragile and are easily damaged. <P> Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The main symptom of Duchenne muscular dystrophy is muscle weakness associated with muscle wasting. DMD is inherited. Females will typically be carriers for the disease while males will be affected. PubMed Health Glossary. (Source: Wikipedia). <P> Different types of muscular dystrophy affect specific groups of muscles, have a specific age when signs and symptoms are first seen, vary in how severe they can be, and are caused by imperfections in different genes. Muscular dystrophies are a group of diseases caused by defects in a person’s genes. Over time, this muscle weakness decreases mobility and makes the tasks of daily living difficult. There are many muscular dystrophies and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) studies the major types. <P> The main symptom of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a progressive neuromuscular disorder, is muscle weakness associated with muscle wasting with the voluntary muscles being first affected, especially those of the hips, pelvic area, thighs, shoulders, and calves. Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a recessive X-linked form of muscular dystrophy, affecting around 1 in 3,600 boys, which results in muscle degeneration and premature death. The disorder is caused by a mutation in the gene dystrophin, located on the human X chromosome, which codes for the protein dystrophin <P> Muscular dystrophies are a group of genetic conditions characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting (atrophy). The Duchenne and Becker types of muscular dystrophy are two related conditions that primarily affect skeletal muscles, which are used for movement, and heart (cardiac) muscle. These forms of muscular dystrophy occur almost exclusively in males <P> Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an inherited (genetic) condition which affects the muscles, causing muscle weakness. It is a serious condition which starts in early childhood. The muscle weakness is mainly in the 'proximal' muscles, which are those near the trunk of the body, around the hips and the shoulders. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a condition which causes muscle weakness. It starts in childhood and may be noticed when a child has difficulty standing up, climbing or running. It is a genetic condition and can be inherited. It usually affects only boys, although girls may carry the Duchenne gene. <P> Muscular dystrophy cannot be cured, but there are various treatments which can help. Muscular dystrophy (MD) is the name given to a group of disorders which cause muscle weakness. There are many different types of MD. The different types vary as to how mild or severe they are, and which muscles they affect.

A speleothem (pronounced /ˈspiːliːɵθɛm/ ; from the Greek for cave deposit), commonly known as a cave formation, is a secondary mineral deposit formed in a cave. Speleothems are typically formed in limestone or dolostone solutional caves. Speleothems formed from salt, sulfur and other minerals are also known. Speleothems made of pure calcium carbonate are a translucent white color, but often speleothems are colored by minerals such as iron, copper or manganese, or may be brown because of mud and silt particulate inclusions. <P> Speleothem. Speleothems are mineral deposits formed from groundwater within underground caverns. Stalagmites, stalactites, and other forms may be annually banded or contain compounds that can be radiometrically dated.

The universe formed from an expansion of a singularity is known as
|
<P> The model of the universe's expansion is known as the Big Bang. As of 2015, this expansion is estimated to have begun 13.799 ± 0.021 billion years ago. It is convenient to divide the evolution of the universe so far into three phases. At the time of this singularity, the expansion rate of the universe will reach infinity, so that any and all forces (no matter how strong) that hold composite objects together (no matter how closely) will be overcome by this expansion, literally tearing everything apart. <P> The big bang theory states that at some time in the distant past there was nothing. A process known as vacuum fluctuation created what astrophysicists call a singularity. From that singularity, which was about the size of a dime, our Universe was born. It is hard to imagine the very beginning of the Universe. Physical laws as we know them did not exist due to the presence of incredibly large amounts of energy, in the form of photons. Eventually, however, the expansion will slow, stop, and then the Universe will begin to contract. The contraction will continue until all of the mass of the Universe is contained in a singularity, a process known as the big crunch. The singularity then undergoes a big bang, and the process begins afresh. <P> Our understanding of the Universe has greatly increased over the past few decades. The current model of how the Universe formed is known as the Big Bang theory. This article discusses the highlights of that theory. Eventually, however, the expansion will slow, stop, and then the Universe will begin to contract. The contraction will continue until all of the mass of the Universe is contained in a singularity, a process known as the big crunch. The singularity then undergoes a big bang, and the process begins afresh. <P> Extrapolation of the expansion of the universe backwards in time using general relativity yields an infinite density and temperature at a finite time in the past. This singularity signals the breakdown of general relativity and thus, all the laws of physics. In 1965, the cosmic microwave background radiation was discovered, which was crucial evidence in favor of the Big Bang model, since that theory predicted the existence of background radiation throughout the universe before it was discovered. <P> Some scientists believed that if our universe was created by a singularity, there would have to be a background heat still in existence in the universe. To understand why a scientist would think there is still heat from the big bang you have to know that the universe is still expanding. In other words, the big bang was the beginning of everything. The big bang theory is not the only model that tries to explain the origins of our universe. There are several other theories, but the big bang is the most popular and well known. Here is a link the the NASA page about the big bang theory. <P> According to this theory, all the matter in the universe came into existence at the same time during an event known as the big bang, which happened about 13.7 billion years ago. At that time, all matter was compacted into a single point with infinite density and intense heat called a singularity. Many people are under the misconception that the big bang was an explosion in which this singularity unpacked and propelled matter out across space, thereby instigating the birth of the universe. <P> Before the Big Bang, there was no time or space. The Big Bang marked the beginning of the universe's expansion from a singularity (or something close to a singularity) — a single point that was infinitely small, infinitely hot, and infinitely dense. <P> The chronology of the universe describes the history and future of the universe according to Big Bang cosmology, the prevailing scientific model of how the universe developed over time from the Planck epoch, using the cosmological time parameter of comoving coordinates. At the time of this singularity, the expansion rate of the universe will reach infinity, so that any and all forces (no matter how strong) that hold composite objects together (no matter how closely) will be overcome by this expansion, literally tearing everything apart. <P> In this work, the authors analyzed glow dot big bang singularity and space. Key words: Black hole singularity, explosion, expansion space and time PACS: 01.50.Kw; 02.40.Xx The Big Bang: The big bang is the generally accepted cosmological model. This Universe was created out of nothing. This nothingness is called big bang singularity.

what is foxtail
|
<P> A foxtail (or fox tail) can mean the tail of a fox, or: 1 Foxtail (diaspore) , the dry spikelet or spikelet cluster of some grasses. <P> The name foxtail is applied to a number of grasses that have bushy spikes of spikelets that resemble the tail of a fox. Not all of these are hazardous; most of the hazardous ones are in the genus Hordeum, and are also called wild barley. Grasses known as foxtails include: 1 Alopecurus (foxtail grasses-the scientific name literally means fox tail). 2 Bromus madritensis (foxtail brome). <P> A foxtail is a spikelet or spikelet cluster of a grass, that serves to disperse its seeds as a unit. Thus, the foxtail is a type of diaspore or plant dispersal unit. Some grasses that produce a foxtail are themselves called foxtail, also spear grass . Not all of these are hazardous; most of the hazardous ones are in the genus Hordeum, and are also called wild barley. Grasses known as foxtails include: 1 Alopecurus (foxtail grasses-the scientific name literally means fox tail). 2 Bromus madritensis (foxtail brome). <P> In this article. Foxtail plants can be risky for your dog. The barbed seed heads of the foxtail plant can work their way into any part of your dog or cat, from the nose to between the toes and inside the ears, eyes, and mouth. They can even simply dig themselves directly into a patch of skin. The foxtail plant is a grass-like weed. 1 If you see discharge from the nose, or if your dog is sneezing frequently and intensely, there may be a foxtail lodged in a nasal passage. 2 Genitals. 3 Foxtails can find their way into these areas, too. 4 So if you notice your dog persistently licking at its genitals, foxtails could be the cause. <P> Foxtails are found most often on wild barley grasses and grow to be 2 to 5 feet in height and have a top with hairlike needles that ressemble a fox's tail. In some varieties the spikelets (top) look like common barley or rye grass. Not all foxtails have lethal awns, but grasses such as foxtail barley and foxtail grass have particularly nasty awns. Other kinds of grass, such as Ripgut brome and Canada wild rye, also have potentially dangerous awns. Like a bullet, a foxtail's torpedo-shaped awns can penetrate any part of a dog's body. <P> Most people living in the Eastern U.S. haven't heard of foxtails and how dangerous they can be to dogs. Foxtails are grass-like weeds which resemble the tails of foxes and are usually found only in states west of the Mississippi. Southern California has a variety of wild grasses with similar characteristics. These annual grasses are often found in weedy areas along paths and roads. A foxtail seed can cause an inflamed, painful, infected lump anywhere on an animal's body. A dog with a foxtail seed in its ear might rub its head on the ground or shake its head violently from side to side. If a dog gets a foxtail seed in its eye, it might squint. <P> For example, a foxtail within the ear canal causes head shaking, under the skin a draining tract, or within the lung, labored breathing and coughing. Not only is the dog’s body incapable of degrading or decomposing foxtails, these plant awns are barbed in such a way that they can only move in a “forward” direction. If you suspect your dog has a foxtail-related issue, contact your veterinarian right away to find out what steps can be taken (at home or in the veterinary hospital) to rid your dog of this unwanted plant material. Whenever possible, avoidance of foxtail exposure is the best and only foolproof preven <P> Foxtails are grasses with seed awns that are extremely dangerous to dogs. Foxtail awns are barbed, razor-sharp needles, designed to burrow into the ground with the seed. However, they can also burrow through a dog's skin and enter soft tissue where they can cause serious injury, infection and death. Not all foxtails have lethal awns, but grasses such as foxtail barley and foxtail grass have particularly nasty awns. Other kinds of grass, such as Ripgut brome and Canada wild rye, also have potentially dangerous awns. Like a bullet, a foxtail's torpedo-shaped awns can penetrate any part of a dog's body.

<P> The shelf life for an unrefrigerated egg is 7 to 10 days and for refrigerated, it's 30 to 45 days. A good rule of thumb is one day at room temperature is equal to one week under refrigeration.. <P> Cooked eggs can sit out at room temperature for about the length of the day. The eggs will need to be refrigerated if they will not be eaten in 24 hours. <P> Properly handled and stored, eggs rarely spoil. If you keep them long enough, they are more likely to simply dry up! But, don't leave eggs out at room temperature. They'll age more in 1 day at room temperature than they will in 1 week in the refrigerator. Room temperature is also an ideal temperature for bacterial growth.. <P> There's a global divide on the age-old question as to whether eggs should be stored in the fridge or kept at room temperature: Americans generally tend to store their eggs in the refrigerator to increase shelf life and to prevent bacterial contamination. <P> After eggs are refrigerated, they need to stay that way. A cold egg left out at room temperature can sweat, facilitating the movement of bacteria into the egg and increasing the growth of bacteria. Refrigerated eggs should not be left out more than 2 hours. <P> How to bring eggs to room temperature. February 24, 2011 in Baking, How-To's and Tips 13 Comments.

what is Atmospheric water vapor
|
<P> It is also known as vapor density of water. an atmospheric condition which occurs when the maximum amount of water vapor is available to keep moist air in equilibrium with a surface of pure water or ice. It represents the maximum amount of water vapor that air can hold at observed temperature and pressure. the portion of total air pressure exerted by water vapor in a sample of air. The maximum possible vapor pressure is about 4% of the mean sea level pressure, or about 40 mb. Assuming that the water vapor is 1% of the atmospheric composition at the sea level, the vapor pressure, on the average, is about 10 mb. <P> Over 99% of the atmospheric moisture is in the form of water vapor, and this vapor is the principal source of the atmospheric energy that drives the development of weather systems on short time scales and influences the climate on longer time scales. Water vapor is a critical component of Earth's climate systems. It is the Earth's primary greenhouse gas, trapping more heat than carbon dioxide. Movement of water vapor, and its associated latent heat of vaporization, is also responsible for about 50% of the transport of heat from the tropics to the poles. The movement of water vapor is also important for determining the amount of precipitation a region receives. Total column water vapor is a measure of the total gaseous water contained in a vertical column of atmosphere. It is quite different from the more familiar relative humidity, which is the amount of water vapor in air relative to the amount of water vapor the air is capable of holding <P> The water vapor from these instruments are used to create a Total Precipitable Water (atmospheric water vapor) product that is best for use in climate study. This 1-degree, monthly gridded product is further described in this document Merged Monthly 1-degree Total Precipitable Water-TPW. The movement of water vapor is also important for determining the amount of precipitation a region receives. Total column water vapor is a measure of the total gaseous water contained in a vertical column of atmosphere. It is quite different from the more familiar relative humidity, which is the amount of water vapor in air relative to the amount of water vapor the air is capable of holding <P> the mass of water vapor (in grams) per mass of dry air (in kgs). Mixing ratio (w) can be expressed as: w = A e / (p-e), where e is vapor pressure, p is the atmospheric pressure, and A is a constant (= 0.622). the ratio of the mass of water vapor (in grams) to the ratio of the mass of moist air (in kgs). the portion of total air pressure exerted by water vapor in a sample of air. The maximum possible vapor pressure is about 4% of the mean sea level pressure, or about 40 mb. Assuming that the water vapor is 1% of the atmospheric composition at the sea level, the vapor pressure, on the average, is about 10 mb. <P> Water in Earth's atmosphere is not merely below its boiling point (100 °C), but at altitude it goes below its freezing point (0 °C), due to water's highly polar attraction. When combined with its quantity, water vapor then has a relevant dew point and frost point, unlike e. g., carbon dioxide and methane. Also, a net condensation of water vapor occurs on surfaces when the temperature of the surface is at or below the dew point temperature of the atmosphere. Deposition, the direct formation of ice from water vapor, is a type of condensation. <P> Heat radiated from Earth’s surface is absorbed by water vapor molecules in the lower atmosphere. The water vapor molecules, in turn, radiate heat in all directions. Some of the heat returns to the Earth’'s surface. Thus, water vapor is a second source of warmth (in addition to sunlight) at the Earth’s surface. These maps show the average amount of water vapor in a column of atmosphere in a given month. The units are given in centimeters, which is the equivalent amount of water that could be produced if all the water vapor in the column were to condense. <P> 1 Specific humidity-measures mass of water vapor in a fixed total mass of air. 2 In general it is greater in the tropics (16 g/kg) than in the polar regions (4 g/kg). 3 This definition is used when we are interested in the actual amount of water that is in the atmosphere as a gas. 1 Absolute humidity-mass of water vapor in a fixed volume of air, or the water vapor density. 2 We don't ever use this definition so don't bother memorizing it! 3 Actual vapor pressure-the amount of water vapor in terms of the amount of pressure that the water vapor molecules exert. <P> Water vapor, water vapour or aqueous vapor, is the gaseous phase of water. It is one state of water within the hydrosphere. Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or from the sublimation of ice. Unlike other forms of water, water vapor is invisible. Under typical atmospheric conditions, water vapor is continuously generated by evaporation and removed by condensation. Also, a net condensation of water vapor occurs on surfaces when the temperature of the surface is at or below the dew point temperature of the atmosphere. Deposition, the direct formation of ice from water vapor, is a type of <P> Water vapor is a relatively common atmospheric constituent, present even in the solar atmosphere as well as every planet in the Solar System and many astronomical objects including natural satellites, comets and even large asteroids.

what is the name of white marble
|
<P> Construction marble is a stone which is composed of calcite, dolomite or serpentine which is capable of taking a polish. More generally in construction, specifically the dimension stone trade, the term marble is used for any crystalline calcitic rock (and some non-calcitic rocks) useful as building stone. Geologists use the term marble to refer to metamorphosed limestone; however, stonemasons use the term more broadly to encompass unmetamorphosed limestone. Marble is commonly used for sculpture and as a building material. <P> The name marble is used in a different way in the dimension stone trade. Any crystalline carbonate rock that has an ability to accept a polish is called marble. The name is sometimes used for other soft rocks such as travertine, verd antique, serpentine and some limestones. Before metamorphism, the calcite in the limestone is often in the form of lithified fossil material and biological debris. During metamorphism, this calcite recrystallizes and the texture of the rock changes. In the early stages of the limestone-to-marble transformation the calcite crystals in the rock are very small. <P> Marble. Marble is a metamorphic rock resulting from regional metamorphism of sedimentary carbonate rocks. It comes in a vast range of colours from white, green, red to black and its veining generally contrasts with the base stone colour. It has been used as a building material for centuries and is suitable for many different applications including outdoor and kitchen worktops depending on the particular type of marble. <P> Pighes white marble is quarried in Greece in a near the town Piges. It is nearly all white but can range to a gray color; the higher the quality the more white the stone becomes.White of Volakas. This is a pure white marble with small veins of colors ranging from black and brown. The cost of white marble depends on the quality of slab or tile you purchase. The price between white marble tiles and a white marble slab is vastly different as well. You will find that purchasing white marble tiles will be cheaper per square foot than a marble slab. <P> Marble is a stunning natural stone material, but due to the bursting popularity of granite marble has taken a back seat. Granite is always very stunning and not as susceptible to staining as marble, which is a concern keeping marble from becoming a widely popular countertop material. The cost of white marble depends on the quality of slab or tile you purchase. The price between white marble tiles and a white marble slab is vastly different as well. You will find that purchasing white marble tiles will be cheaper per square foot than a marble slab. <P> Marble is a non-foliated metamorphic rock composed of recrystallized carbonate minerals, most commonly calcite or dolomite. Geologists use the term marble to refer to metamorphosed limestone; however, stonemasons use the term more broadly to encompass unmetamorphosed limestone. Marble is commonly used for sculpture and as a building material. <P> White Thassos is a pure white marble with the brilliant crystalline color of refined sugar. Taking its name from the Greek Island where it has been quarried since ancient times, it is fresh and timeless. Suitable to traditional and contemporary design projects alike, this classic offers a bright and airy aesthetic. There are different types of white marble that exist around the world, each carrying different veins and patterns and color tones. These include Calacatta, Carrara, Statuario, Thassos, Afyon and many others that give timeless and stunning appearance to your kitchen, bathroom and other living spaces. <P> Marble is a rock resulting from metamorphism of sedimentary carbonate rocks, most commonly limestone or dolomite rock. Metamorphism causes variable recrystallization of the original carbonate mineral grains.

how long to cook flat iron steak in oven
|
<P> Place the steaks into the oven and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until your desired doneness. I discovered that the broiling process can get a little smokey. If you do not have a good hood over your stove, then like me, you may have to run and crack a window. It will be fine, the steaks will come out great. <P> Take the flat iron steak out of the roasting pan and put in on a plate. Let it rest for five to 10 minutes. This allows the moisture that seeps out of the muscle fibers during cooking to be reabsorbed, making the steak juicier. 1 Store beef below 40 F and don't leave it out at room temperature longer than two hours. <P> Bake the flat iron steak to the desired level of doneness, checking it with a food thermometer. Cook it for about 10 minutes to 120 F for rare; about 12 minutes to 130 F for medium-rare; about 15 minutes to 140 F for medium; about 20 minutes to 150 F for medium-well; or about 23 minutes to 160 F for well done. <P> Stir the sesame oil and butter, then set aside. Place the steak on a broiler pan or rack over a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Broil to desired doneness — about 5 minutes per side for medium rare — then cover with foil and let stand for about ten minutes. <P> Place the flat iron steak in the marinade and cover the dish with its lid or plastic wrap. Put it into the refrigerator. Soak the beef in pineapple or papaya juice marinades for about an hour. If it's buttermilk marinade, leave it in there two to three hours. <P> 1 Cook the steaks in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes. 2 The steak will still look fairly uncooked when you remove it from the oven. 3 A thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the steak will reveal a cooking temperature five to ten degrees lower than the desired doneness. <P> Best Answer: Flat iron steaks really are not meant to be cooked in the oven. Like flank steak, they benefit from marinating for a long time (at least 6-8 hours-I usually marinate overnight). Then grill or broil. If you go past medium, they tend to become tough.

when was seal born
|
<P> In California, harbor seal pups are born between February and April and weigh about 20 to 24 pounds at birth. If born prematurely, harbor seals retain a whitish lanugo coat (which is usually lost before birth). A pup can swim at birth and will sometimes ride on its mother's back when tired. <P> JOB ONE: EAT. When this baby harp seal was born, he weighed a little more than 20 pounds. That may sound big for a baby, but a newborn harp seal, called a yellowcoat, is actually pretty skinny for its size. Right away, the little yellowcoat got down to the business of packing on the pounds. Good thing Mom's milk is made for the job. <P> Seal was born Olusegun Olumide Adeola Samuel on 19 February 1963 in Paddington, London, England, to a Nigerian mother, Adebisi Ogundeji, and a Brazilian father, Francis Samuel. In 2004 a greatest hits album entitled Seal: Best 1991–2004 was released, including a cover of the Bacharach / David classic Walk on By and a cover of Echo & the Bunnymen 's song Lips Like Sugar. <P> Seal was born on February 19, 1963 in Paddington, London, England as Seal Henry Olusegun Olumide Adelo Samuel. He was previously married to Heidi Klum. Seal is of Brazilian and Nigerian descent. The scars on his face are the result of discoid lupus erythematosus, a type of Lupus that affects the skin, resulting in the classic Lupus butterfly rash across the cheeks, and nose. <P> Harbor Seal Born at the Milwaukee County Zoo. The Milwaukee County Zoo is proud to announce the birth of a harbor seal pup, born in the early morning of June 14. The pup was born to mother, Sydney, and father, Ringo, both of whom were born in the wild. <P> Seal was born on February 19, 1963 in Paddington, London, England as Seal Henry Olusegun Olumide Adelo Samuel. <P> The Hawaiian monk seal is the second-most endangered marine mammal in the United States -- their population is currently hovering around 1,100 -- so when a new one is born, it's as celebrated as a royal birth. <P> 1992: Winner of the Brit Awards for British Male Solo Artist, British Album for Seal and British Video for Killer. Father of Henry Guenther Günther Ademola Dashtu (samuel born on 12 september) 2005 And Johan Riley Fyodor Taiwo (samuel born on 22 november). 2006 Seal is of Brazilian and Nigerian descent. The scars on his face are the result of discoid lupus erythematosus, a type of Lupus that affects the skin, resulting in the classic Lupus butterfly rash across the cheeks, and nose. <P> Harp seals are born on vast ice floes and stay on the ice for the first few weeks of their lives, until they are able to swim. Cape fur seal pups are currently being massacred for their fur and blubber in Namibia, in so-called 'seal reserves', where pups are born and nurse for up to a year. In the Canadian harp seal slaughter, the pups are just three weeks to three months of age <P> Lifespan. If they survive the dangers of being a pup, seals are relatively long-lived animals. Both species often live longer than 30 years and one female grey seal in the Shetland Islands was known to be 46 years old. Since many seals die at sea, it is difficult to know the major causes of death. Grey seal mothers feed their pups with milk for 16 to 21 days, during which time the pup gains an average of 30 kg (66 lbs). During this period of intensive care, the mother might lose 65 kg (143 lbs) of her own body weight.

what is lechon
|
<P> In its literal sense, the pig used to make lechon is like a “suckling pig” or a pig that is being fed by his/her mother’s milk. When speaking of lechon, the whole pig is being roasted usually on charcoal. In the past, only suckling or baby pigs were used to make this very popular pork dish because younger pigs have very tender and juicy meat. Not many people can actually afford to buy a whole pig and have it roasted. Perhaps this is also one reason that lechons are only served during big and important occassions. There are even times when lechons are paraded on the streets during town festivals. All these make lechon a very popular dish. <P> Lechon kawali from a Filipino food truck in Los Angeles, California.

where are neurotransmitter receptors located
|
<P> In postsynaptic cells, neurotransmitter receptors receive signals that trigger an electrical signal, by regulating the activity of ion channels. The binding of neurotransmitters to specific receptors can change the membrane potential of a neuron. Ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) are one type of ionotropic receptor or channel-linked receptor. They are a group of transmembrane ion channels that are opened or closed in response to the binding of a chemical messenger (i.e., a ligand), such as a neurotransmitter. <P> There are two types of neurotransmitter receptors: ligand-gated receptors or ionotropic receptors and G protein-coupled receptors or metabotropic receptors. Ligand-gated receptors can be excited by neurotransmitters (ligands) like glutamate and aspartate. Ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) are one type of ionotropic receptor or channel-linked receptor. They are a group of transmembrane ion channels that are opened or closed in response to the binding of a chemical messenger (i.e., a ligand), such as a neurotransmitter. <P> Neurotransmitters are checmials in the brain that help promote brain health by participating in the process of sending signals to various parts of the brain to function ap … propriately. When neurotransmitters are not functioning appropriately, medication is often used such as Prozac or Paxil. They are present in all of the nerve cells, but predominately in the ganglia or nerve bundles of invertebrates, and in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) of vertebrates. There are many kinds of neurotransmitter chemicals. <P> Receptors for the various neurotransmitters are located on both the presynaptic and postsynaptic nerve terminals of the neuron.

why do you tear when you cut onions
|
<P> Unstable chemicals. Onions produce the chemical irritant known as syn-propanethial-S-oxide. It stimulates the eyes' lachrymal glands so they release tears. Scientists used to blame the enzyme allinase for the instability of substances in a cut onion. <P> A. When an onion is cut, certain (lachrymator) compounds are released causing the nerves around the eyes (lacrimal glands) to become irritated. These compounds consist of methionine and cystine that are part of the amino acid family. <P> This gas reacts with the water in your tears to form sulfuric acid. The sulfuric acid burns, stimulating your eyes to release more tears to wash the irritant away. Cooking the onion inactivates the enzyme, so while the smell of cooked onions may be strong, it doesn't burn your eyes. <P> Onions may cause your eyes to tear for the following reason: When you cut into an onion, you slice through cells which contain sulfur compounds. Sulfur is quite a noxious (bad smelling) element. The compounds released are highly volatile, meaning they quickly enter the air in their vicinity. <P> Most people do. It turns out when you cut an onion, it releases a gas called, ready for this, Propanethiol S-oxide. When mixed with certain enzymes in the onion, it creates a sulfur gas. These gases then get to your eyes and create a mild acid which irritates the eyes. <P> When you cut onions, the onion oil gases enter your eyes. It irritates your eyes and your tear glands produce extra tears to clean it. Then the excess amount runs down your face and the irritant is also removed along with it. See, how your body has its own way of cleaning itself! <P> Well, onions contain a oil, which has lots of sulphur in it. When you cut the onion, this oil is released. It evaporates very fast. When the oil gases reach your eyes, it causes irritation and sends signals to your tear gland to produce tears. So that the tears can wash away the irritant from your eyes.

Onions produce the chemical irritant known as syn-propanethial-S-oxide. It stimulates the eyes' lachrymal glands so they release tears

what does jicama look like
|
<P> 3. Make stir-fried jicama. Jicama is a great vegetable to substitute for water chestnuts or potatoes in a stir fry. Chop your jicama into bite-sized pieces, then add it to the frying pan with other cut vegetables like snow peas, carrots, and green beans. 1. Add jicama to your salad. Jicama is a crunchy, flavorful, bright addition to any type of salad. Slice it into thin sticks or small cubes and simply toss it into your salad along with your other favorite mix-ins. Jicama pairs especially well with citrusy dressings. <P> by www.SixWise.com. Jicama, a tan, brown or gray root vegetable that looks somewhat like a turnip or large radish, may not yet have caught your eye in the produce section, but it definitely deserves a second (and third) look. Jicama is available in most grocery stores. Jicama can be used in your cooking like a super-potato (one that also tastes great, and is healthy, eaten raw). Jicama is less starchy than a potato, and one cup has only about 45 calories. It's high in vitamins C, A and B, along with calcium and phosphorus. <P> How to Buy Jicama. Jicama is a root vegetable that is native to Mexico. It has a thick brown skin that resembles a potato's, and is shaped like a large turnip. The interior of the jicama root is crisp and white. Its texture is similar to a potato, while its flavor is mildly sweet and similar to some varieties of apples. Jicama can be stored for up to 3 weeks. 1 If storing cut jicama, cover the root loosely with a paper towel and place it in a plastic bag. 2 The bag can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. 3 Before use, you may want to cut away some of the exposed flesh if it has become soggy or discolored. <P> Jicama is relative of the potato family and looks similar to a turnip or a large radish. The taste is best described as a cross between a water chestnut and an apple. <P> Jicama is a crispy, sweet, edible tuber that resembles a turnip in physical appearance, although the plants are not related. It has been cultivated in South America for centuries, and the vegetable is quite popular in Mexican cuisine. Jicama's unique flavor lends itself well to salads, salsas, and vegetable platters. First, peel the skin off until you have the meat of the fruit. After that, get a potato peeler and slice the jicama meat with it. the product should look like a pile of jicama chips then you should get out a big plate or cutting board and lay the jicama chips on it(don't overlap them). <P> Jicama (yam bean) nutrition facts. Jicama, also known as yam bean, is a round, fleshy taproot vegetable of bean family plants. Its underground starchy root is one of the popular edible tuber-vegetables grown in many parts of Central American, South Asian, Caribbean, and some Andean South American regions. Jicama is a perennial vine, growing vigorously under semitropical and tropical climates. It has similar growth characteristics as that of lima bean or any other bean species plant. The most distinguishing feature, however, is that it bears globular, fleshy, turnip-like starchy edible root below the ground surface. <P> Jicama (Yam Bean, MexicanTurnip). - Jicama, a legume, is grown for the large tuberous roots which can be eaten raw or cooked and are used as a source of starch. The jicama plant is a vine which grows to a length of 20 feet or more. The roots are light brown in color, and may weigh up to 50 pounds <P> Pachyrhizus erosus, commonly known as jicama (/ˈhɪkəmə/ ; Spanish jicama [jícama] (ˈxikama·help) ; info From nahuatl, [xīcamatl]), ʃiːˈkamatɬ mexican yam, bean Or mexican, turnip is the name of a Native mexican, vine although the name most commonly refers to the'plant s edible tuberous. root Other names for jicama include Mexican potato, ahipa, saa go t, and Chinese potato.

how much pressure can concrete withstand
|
<P> Many Monolithic Domes are buried up to 30 feet deep. They must withstand pressures up to 1 ton per square foot (2000 psf)]. Against tornado pressure a Monolithic™ Dome 100 feet in diameter, 35 feet tall would still have a safety margin of nearly 1½ times its minimum design strength. In other words, the stress created by the 300 mile per hour wind would increase the compressive pressure in the concrete shell to 1,098 psi. Then p = (0.00449) Vh2 for V = 300 mph; p = 404psf. The maximum concrete stress in dome 100 feet in diameter by 35 feet high with p = 400psf is 1,098psi compression. From the “Concrete Dome Seismic Analysis” example we see the allowable stress is significantly higher at 2,394 psi. <P> I tried looking up what lbs per foot concrete can hold but only got back how much concrete weighs. Please let me know thinking about putting a 7500 lbs machine on 4 of concrete. 04-25-2011, 09:10 AM #17. Diamond. I tried looking up what lbs per foot concrete can hold but only got back how much concrete weighs. Please let me know thinking about putting a 7500 lbs machine on 4 of concrete All depends on WHERE ..... <P> Alex Wilson, President, Resilient Design Institute. It is possible to design buildings to withstand 250 mph winds. You can buy tornado doors that are rated to 300 mph, but those are very expensive. Thick, laminated, and reinforced glass is available that can withstand 250 mph wind, but again, cost is a major issue. That said, even designing buildings to withstand 140 or 150 mph winds would be a huge step up from conventional practice today. I have long advocated extending wind provisions of the Miami-Dade County hurricane code to much of the U.S. Henry L. Green, Hon. AIA, President, National Institute of Building Sciences. <P> Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: A common allowable stress for steel is 24,000 psi for A36 steel. Note that allowable stress is a working stress that is less than ultimate stress the stress at which the material will rupture. This allowable stress keeps the steel within the elastic range. Concrete allowable stress is typically around 3000 psi. Your question is not specific,there are many types of Concrete according to ratio and many types of steel but if want general answer,Concrete is good for compression and for 1:2:4 Cement-Sand-Gravel Ratio up to 4000 psi but very weak in tension where as tor steel is good for tension and is about 70000-80000 psi. <P> Concrete. Reinforced concrete is a strong, dense material, resistant to fire and if used in a building that is designed appropriately, can withstand the destructive force of very strong winds, thumping waves and even high speed fragments. The physical geometry of a building affects its aerodynamic properties and how well it can withstand a hurricane, gently sloping roofs or buildings constructed from timber, steel, or concrete have low drag coefficients and can withstand higher wind forces than a square building of the same area. <P> Best Answer: You didn't give units of area for me to work with, but I will tell you what I can. Medium strength concrete would fail at about 28 MPa (4,000 pounds per square inch). High strength concrete would fail at about 40 MPa (6,000 pounds per square inch). In a 5 X 5 section, it would be able to hold 10000 pounds if it is medium strength, 150000 pounds if it is high strength. Source(s): My mechanics of materials course.

what is normal oximeter reading
|
<P> According to Dr. Fred Furgang in his article Hypoxia, Oxygen, and Pulse Oximetry, a pilot should use supplemental oxygen if the oximeter reading is below 90%, maintain at 91-92% level when doing remedial tasks and above 93% with increased workload. <P> A pulse oximeter is a medical device that indirectly measures levels of hypoxia. The device senses levels of oxygen saturation in arterial blood using spectral analysis, along with pulse rate. Generally, oximeters are accurate in measuring oxygen saturation between 70 and 100 percent. <P> Though the pulse oximeter actually measures the saturation of oxygen in your blood, the results are often used as an estimate of blood oxygen levels. Normal pulse oximeter readings range from 95 to 100 percent, under most circumstances. Values under 90 percent are considered low. <P> A pulse oximeter is a medical device that measures levels of blood oxygen saturation, monitors pulse rate and calculates heart rate. It utilizes a non-invasive analysis to measure blood oxygen saturation, so no blood samples need to be drawn. <P> Pulse oximetry is a procedure used to measure the oxygen level (or oxygen saturation) in the blood. It is considered to be a noninvasive, painless, general indicator of oxygen delivery to the peripheral tissues (such as the finger, earlobe, or nose). <P> The oxygen level from a pulse oximeter is reasonably accurate. Most oximeters give a reading 2% over or 2% under what your saturation would be if obtained by an arterial blood gas. For example, if your oxygen saturation reads 92% on the pulse oximeter, it may be actually anywhere from 90 to 94%. <P> The best place to get the answer to this question is in your doctor's office. Your pulse oximetry normal values are dependent on your health condition, respiratory rate, percentage of oxygen in the air, activities you are performing, and other factors. Here are some general guidelines to understand oximeter readings. For a regular healthy person, the normal blood oxygen saturation level (SpO2) should be around 94% to 99%. For patients with mild respiratory diseases, the SpO2 should be 90% or above.

definition of innate immunity
|
<P> Adaptive immunity refers to antigen-specific immune response. The adaptive immune response is more complex than the innate. The antigen first must be processed and recognized. Once an antigen has been recognized, the adaptive immune system creates an army of immune cells specifically designed to attack that antigen. <P> Innate immunity is not pathogen-specific and does not create immunological memory. It includes the actions of adhesion molecules; cellular chemotaxis; the secretion of cytokines; cytotoxicity; the activities of dendritic and natural killer cells; inflammation; and phagocytosis. Synonym: innate immune system.rtificial immunity acquired (active or passive) immunity produced by deliberate exposure to an antigen, as in vaccination. cell-mediated immunity (CMI), cellular immunity acquired immunity in which the role of T lymphocytes is predominant. genetic immunity innate i. <P> antigen specific immunity attributable to the production of antibody and of specific immune T lymphocytes (responsible for cell-mediated immunity), following exposure to an antigen, or passive transfer of antibody or immune lymphoid cells (adoptive immunity).rtificial immunity acquired (active or passive) immunity produced by deliberate exposure to an antigen, as in vaccination. cell-mediated immunity (CMI), cellular immunity acquired immunity in which the role of T lymphocytes is predominant. genetic immunity innate i. <P> Our second line of defense. The second line of defense is the innate (or natural) immune system, so-called because all animals are born with it. Innate immunity provides the body with a non-specific defense against all objects or organisms perceived as being foreign. <P> Innate immunity: Immunity that is naturally present and is not due to prior sensitization to an antigen from, for example, an infection or vaccination. Since it is not stimulated by specific antigens, innate immunity is generally nonspecific. It is in contrast to acquired immunity. Also called natural immunity. <P> The innate immune system, also known as the nonspecific immune system, is an important subsystem of the overall immune system that comprises the cells and mechanisms that defend the host from infection by other organisms. The cells of the innate system recognize and respond to pathogens in a generic way, but, unlike the adaptive immune system (which is found only in vertebrates), it does not confer long-lasting or protective immunity to the host. <P> The adaptive immune system is one of the two main immunity strategies found in vertebrates (the other being the innate immune system). Adaptive immunity creates immunological memory after an initial response to a specific pathogen, leads to an enhanced response to subsequent encounters with that pathogen.his process of acquired immunity is the basis of vaccination. Like the innate system, the adaptive system includes both humoral immunity components and cell-mediated immunity components. Unlike the innate immune system, the adaptive immune system is highly specific to a specific pathogen. <P> innate immunity, n the ability of the body to protect itself against foreign organisms and toxins. The defense mechanisms of skin, white blood cells, macrophages, stomach acid, and chemicals in the bloodstream are all part of innate immunity.n. Immunity that occurs naturally as a result of a person's genetic constitution or physiology and does not arise from a previous infection or vaccination. Also called genetic immunity, inherent immunity, native immunity, natural immunity, nonspecific immunity. <P> • INNATE IMMUNITY (noun).

The price paid by all conformal projections is great variation in scale away from the central portions of the map. The Transverse Mercator Projection. The familiar Mercator projection used on so many world maps is a cylindrical projection, meaning the globe is encircled by an imaginary cylinder touching at the equator, and the earth is projected onto the cylinder. <P> Mercator Projection. The Mercator projection is a map projection that was widely used for navigation since loxodromes are straight lines (although great circles are curved).

how long it takes to get pregnant after stopping the pill
|
<P> There's no telling how long it will take for you to get pregnant after stopping the pill. Some women can get pregnant immediately; others may take a few months to conceive. You can increase your chances of getting pregnant if you know when you're ovulating and have intercourse around that time. <P> About 50 percent of women who are trying for a baby become pregnant within 3 months of stopping the Pill (and 20 percent within the first month). The Pill prevents pregnancy by stopping ovulation (the release of an egg during a monthly menstrual cycle). If there is no egg, the woman can't get pregnant. <P> Menstrual bleeding usually results from a decrease in natural hormone levels about 14 days after the ovulation, if you're not pregnant. The average woman takes one month to three months to start ovulating again after stopping the pill. Sometimes ovulation may occur sooner; other times, it may take longer. So the first sign that your ovulation has returned is usually the reappearance of your regular menstrual cycle, a couple of weeks after ovulation. Without ovulating you cannot get pregnant. So if you are on the birth control pill, the first step in trying to get pregnant is to stop the pill. Preferably, if you want to get pregnant and you have been on the pill, you wait until the end of the birth control pill pack and then just don't start with the new pack. <P> 1 You can get pregnant right away after stopping regular-dose or low-dose hormonal birth control. 2 About half of women get pregnant in the first 3 months after stopping the Pill, and most women get pregnant within 12 months after stopping the Pill. 1 With the implant, you can get pregnant as soon as it is removed. 2 It may take 3 to 18 months after your last shot to get pregnant. 3 The progestin-only pill, also called the mini-pill, does not seem to delay fertility. 4 Most women will get pregnant within 6 months after stopping the mini-pill. <P> Found This Helpful. The length of time needed to get pregnant after stopping birth control pills depends on how long it takes for a woman to start ovulating again. For some women, this may happen in as little as two weeks; others may need several months. Benefit of Waiting. While it may be possible for you to get pregnant very soon after stopping the pill, waiting until you have at least one normal period will help you and your doctor estimate the date of conception and your baby's due date, useful information for monitoring the fetus's development. <P> Now, if you had problems with ovulation before you started the pill then the same issues may still be there. Some women take the pill for irregular periods and ovulation, and you cannot expect this to change once you stop the pill. By the way, five months of TTC is not long enough to be concerned. It takes on average four to five months to get pregnant, and 85% of couples take up to one year. Good luck. <P> Some women may ovulate within 1-2 weeks after stopping the pill, while in others it could take several months. Ovulation may be delayed or may not happen for a long time if you had started the pill initially because your periods were irregular and you already had problems with ovulation. Without ovulating you cannot get pregnant. So if you are on the birth control pill, the first step in trying to get pregnant is to stop the pill. Preferably, if you want to get pregnant and you have been on the pill, you wait until the end of the birth control pill pack and then just don't start with the new pack. <P> After the cycle, attempts can be made to start getting pregnant although it may be advisable to wait for the first normal menstrual period after you stop taking your pills, he says. But this precaution is not essential. Some women conceive within a week or two after stopping birth control pills. <P> It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been on the pill, twelve months or twelve years, most doctors recommend waiting one to three months before you start trying to get pregnant. Many women are worried about being able to conceive after being on the pill so they find themselves in a bit of a rush to get started!

<P> 1 Antibiotic treatment for strep throat can also help prevent some of the rare complications related either to the strep infection itself or to the body's immune response to the infection. 2 Complications of strep throat are rare but can occur, especially if strep throat is not properly treated. It is possible for you to carry the strep bacteria in the throat and not have any symptoms. Antibiotics for the carrier state are usually not needed unless you have a history of rheumatic fever or frequent infections or infections are occurring frequently in the family. <P> 1 Antibiotics will reduce the time you are contagious. 2 You are usually not contagious 24 hours after starting antibiotics. 3 Antibiotic treatment for strep throat can also help prevent some of the rare complications related either to the strep infection itself or to the body's immune response to the infection.

Antibiotics for the carrier state are usually not needed unless you have a history of rheumatic fever or frequent infections or infections are occurring frequently in the family. <P> Strep throat is an infection in the throat and tonsils caused by group A Streptococcus bacteria (called group A strep). Group A strep bacteria can also live in a person's nose and throat without causing illness. The bacteria are spread through contact with droplets after an infected person coughs or sneezes. Strep throat is a common type of sore throat in children, but it's not very common in adults. Healthcare professionals can do a quick test to detemine if a sore throat is strep throat and decide if antibiotics are needed. <P> Why It Is Used. Antibiotics may be prescribed if you have strep throat. Your doctor may diagnose strep throat by talking to you, examining you, and looking in your mouth. The doctor also may lightly rub the back of your throat with a long cotton swab, to test for strep bacteria. Penicillin is often the first choice of antibiotic for strep throat unless you are allergic to it. Most antibiotics are taken for 10 days. Or a single shot of penicillin may be given. The shot does not help you get better any faster than other types of penicillin <P> Strep throat is a contagious bacterial infection caused by Group A Streptococcus bacteria. It is treated with antibiotics to prevent a serious but rare complication called rheumatic fever. Strep throat occurs most often in children ages 5 to 15 years and spreads easily through coughing and sneezing. Symptoms appear 2 to 5 days after exposure and include a sore throat and fever. While strep throat eventually improves without treatment, antibiotics are prescribed to prevent a rare but permanent heart disease caused by untreated strep infections (rheumatic fever). Be sure to give your child the full course of antibiotics as prescribed, even when he or she feels better. <P> Antibiotics are the treatment of choice for a confirmed strep throat infection. 1 Antibiotics will reduce the time you are contagious. 2 You are usually not contagious 24 hours after starting antibiotics. It is possible for you to carry the strep bacteria in the throat and not have any symptoms. Antibiotics for the carrier state are usually not needed unless you have a history of rheumatic fever or frequent infections or infections are occurring frequently in the family. <P> 1 Antibiotics provide the mainstay for successfully treating a strep throat infection. 2 The GAS bacteria are generally susceptible to the penicillin family (for example, amoxicillin [ Amoxil ]) and the cephalosporin family (for example, cephalexin [ Keflex ], cefprozil [ Cefzil), cefdinir [Omnicef] and others). 1 Regardless of what antibiotic is prescribed, it is incumbent to complete the entire course of the antibiotic. 2 A rapid reduction in symptoms within 24 to 48 hours is to be expected. 3 Viral throat infections do not require antibiotics since they provide no benefit.

Aldosterone is a key steroid hormone critical for maintaining salt and water balance. It regulates the concentration of minerals, like sodium and potassium, in the fluid outside your cells.

It is normally released when the body detects a drop in blood volume. … It functions by increasing the reabsorption of sodium and water from the collecting ducts of the nephron <P> Mineralocorticoids. Mineralocorticoids are hormones that help regulate the salt and water balance in the body. The two important salt ions that are involved in this regulation are sodium and potassium. As we often see in biochemistry, where sodium goes, water follows. Mineralocorticoids are hormones secreted by the adrenal cortex that help regulate the salt and water balance in the body. Mineralocorticoids are able to regulate sodium by telling the kidneys to reabsorb it, so it does not leave the body in urine. <P> Vasopressin, also known as antidiuretic hormone or ADH, maintains the body's water balance by promoting the kidneys to reabsorb water. ADH is secreted by the posterior pit … uitary gland. It works by making collecting tubules of nephrons in the kidneys permeable to water. <P> Answers. Best Answer: Primarily fluid balance is controlled by the hormones ADH (anti-diuretic hormone, also known as Vasopressin) which is produced in the hypothalamus and released from the pituitary gland. It acts on the distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct of the kidney and causes water to be retained. <P> It is A, growth hormone. It is the main stimulator of growth and has some effect on water and elctrolytes as well as reproductive function. However, C and D are basically for water and electrolyte balance. B and E are basically involved in reproductive function. None of B-E are related to growth. <P> Your body only needs a small amount of sodium. Water is the primary fluid in your body, accounting for 60 to 70 percent of your body weight, so regulating salt and water is critical in maintaining the proper fluid balance. Despite the large variation in sodium and water intake, your body works to keep sodium and water within a specific range. The hormones that regulate fluid balance are tightly controlled through a region of your brain called the hypothalamus. It's situated at the base of the brain and acts as the control center for various hormones that regulate a wide variety of physiological processes, including salt and water balance. <P> Three major hormones are involved in regulating sodium and water balance in the body at the level of the kidney. (1) ADH (antidiuretic hormone) from the posterior pituitary acts on the kidney to promote water reabsorption, thus preventing its loss in the urine. (2) Aldosterone from the adrenal gland acts on the kidney to promote sodium reabsorption, thus preventing its loss in the urine.

A beneficiary bank is the receiving bank where you have your account. The intermediary/correspondent bank is a third-party bank used by the beneficiary bank to facilitate international transfer and settlement of funds.
