what is a colporrhaphy repair
|
<P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Colporrhaphy (also vaginal wall repair, anterior and/or posterior colporrhaphy, anterior and/or posterior vaginal wall repair, or simply A/P repair or A&P repair) is a surgical procedure in humans that repairs a defect in the wall of the vagina. <P> Posterior repair is used to tighten the back (posterior) wall of the vagina. It is used when the rectum drops out of its normal position and bulges into the back of the vagina, causing the back wall of the vagina to sag, which may result in bowel dysfunction. Anterior Repair. Anterior repair is used to tighten the front (anterior) wall of the vagina. It is used when the bladder drops out of its normal position and bulges into the front of the vagina, causing the front wall of the vagina to sag. This condition is known as anterior wall prolapse, cystocele or dropped bladder <P> Colporrhaphy is the surgical repair of a defect in the vaginal wall, including a cystocele (when the bladder protrudes into the vagina) and a rectocele (when the rectum protrudes into the vagina). In this anterior colporrhaphy, a speculum is used to hold open the vagina, and the cystocele is visualized (A). The wall of the vagina is cut open to reveal an opening in the supporting structures, or fascia (B). The defect is closed (C), and the vaginal skin is repaired (D). Colporrhaphy may be performed on the anterior (front) and/or posterior (back) walls of the vagina. An anterior colporrhaphy treats a cystocele or urethrocele, while a posterior colporrhaphy treats a rectocele. Surgery is generally not performed unless the symptoms of the prolapse have begun to interfere with daily life <P> Anterior Repair (Colporrhaphy). (This manuscript was written by Dr. Robert Moore and Dr. John Miklos and is reprinted with their permission. They are located in Atlanta, Georgia at the Atlanta Center for Laparoscopic Urogynecology. For more information you can go to their website: www.urogynecologychannel.net). Even though the anterior repair is the most commonly utilized operation for correction of a cystocele, anterior repair is probably not the most effective, nor is it the correct operation for restoring a woman’s anatomy and maintaining vaginal length and function. <P> A posterior repair also known as a posterior colporrhaphy is a surgical procedure to repair or reinforce the fascial support layer between the rectum and the vagina. A perine-orrhaphy is the term used for the operation that repairs the perineal body. Quoted success rates for posterior vaginal wall repair is 80-90%. There is a chance that the prolapse might come back in the future, or another part of the vagina may prolapse for which you would need further surgery. <P> POSTERIOR COLPORRHAPHY [s7](posterior repair) INDICATIONS. A significant rectocele (bulging of her posterior vaginal wall), with little or no descent of her cervix. Usually her perineum is deficient also. Do the operation at the same time as an anterior repair (see above). If she is postmenopausal, give her a course of oestradiol before starting. ANTERIOR COLPORRHAPHY [s7](anterior repair) INDICATIONS. (1) Prolapse of her anterior vaginal wall which troubles her, especially if she has to push it back to micturate, provided there is little or no descent of her uterus. Preferably wait until childbearing is ended, because a prolapse may recur after pregnancy

how tall is the totem pole tasmania

<P> This 60-metre-tall 'totem pole' should be added to that list. Located at Cape Hauy in the island's south-east, the 'pole' is what's known in the biz as a 'sea stack': a geological curiosity formed when wind and water erode a cliff face, which causes steep vertical columns to form. And steep it is. And steep it is. At just under 65 metres, the pole draws its fair share of adrenalin seekers. Given that the park forbids the use of bolts, rock-climbing is strictly for the diehards. Geologists estimate the Totem was formed about 100 years ago. <P> The link is that Greenpeace climbers scaled the Totem Pole in Tasmania, Australia to highlight attention to the pirate fishing trade during in 2002.

The Totem Pole is part of the Tasman National Park, as it is part of the many miles of rugged coastline and diverse forest ecosystems, which contain several species of rare plant. <P> It overlooks the ocean to the south of Australia where massive amounts of pirate fishing is driving the long-lived toothfish towards commercial extinction. zoom. Greenpeace climbers scale the Totem Pole in Tasmania, Australia to highlight attention to the pirate fishing trade during this week's CITES meeting. It's a 65 meter natural dolerite formation called the Totem Pole. And today two Greenpeace climbers braved it to send a message: Pirate fishing trades away ocean life!. The Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) is the regional body responsible for toothfish conservation. <P> Located at Cape Huay, this amazing structure is a coastal stack, or sea stack, which peeks at the edge of the Tasmanian coast. Its 65 meter (~213 feet) height makes it a tempting attraction for climbers all over the world. As amazing as coast stacks are, they are not a permanent feature in the landscape, as in time, erosion causes them to eventually collapse.

how much do service coordinators make
|
<P> For example the median expected annual pay for a typical Field Service Coordinator in the United States is $85,470, so 50% of the people who perform the job of Field Service Coordinator in the United States are expected to make less than $85,470. Source: HR Reported data as of October 2015. 1 Salary. 2 Salary + Bonus. This chart describes the expected percentage of people who perform the job of Field Service Coordinator that make less than that salary. For example 50% of the people who perform the job of Field Service Coordinator are expected to make less than the median. <P> Average Service Coordinator salaries for job postings nationwide are 38% lower than average salaries for all job postings nationwide. <P> For Patient Care Coordinators, experience does not seem to be a major factor in determining pay. Relatively untried employees who have less than five years' experience make $32K, but folks with five to 10 years under their belts enjoy an appreciably larger median of $36K. Patient Care Coordinators will find that Seattle offers an impressive pay rate, one which exceeds the national average by 23 percent. Patient Care Coordinators can also look forward to large paychecks in cities like San Francisco (+16 percent), New York (+13 percent), Chicago (+9 percent), and Houston (+9 percent). <P> Pay by Experience Level for Service Coordinator. Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience. Respondents with less than five years' experience take home $34K on average. In contrast, those who have been around for five to 10 years earn a noticeably higher average of $38K. The average pay reported by folks with 10 to 20 years of experience is around $41K. Service Coordinators who have racked up more than two decades of experience report lower incomes overall; the average sum for this crowd comes out to only $39K. <P> Pay Rates. Different websites report very different salary data for patient care coordinators. DegreeDirectory,org reports that patient care coordinators can expect to make between $24,128 and $62,716 per year. The wide range in pay is due to factors such as employer, experience, location, your level of education and your job responsibilities. The Indeed job site reports that the average 2014 salary for patient care coordinator positions is only $25,000 a year, while the average salary of a registered nurse care coordinator is $69,000. <P> Typical Pay. On average, service coordinators made $48,060 as of 2009, says the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This is about $23.11 when viewed in hourly pay. However, the pay range for event coordinators is considerable. Those in the 10th percentile made $27,550 in 2009, while those in the 90th percentile made $75,160. This represents a potential difference of over $47,600. Considerations. Although some service coordinators hold salaried positions, putting together events for companies on a regular basis, others own their own businesses and freelance. If an event coordinator does this, then the amount she earns depends on how many services or events she can put together. <P> Service Coordinator Salary. Service Coordinator average salary is $38,522, median salary is $35,000 with a salary range from $21,400 to $110,400.

what is rejuvenation
|
<P> Rejuvenation is a medical discipline focused on the practical reversal of the aging process. Rejuvenation is distinct from life extension. Life extension strategies often study the causes of aging and try to oppose those causes in order to slow aging. Aging is an accumulation of damage to macromolecules, cells, tissues and organs. If any of that damage can be repaired, the result is rejuvenation. There have been many experiments which have been shown to increase the maximum life span of laboratory animals, thereby achieving <P> Asphalt rejuvenation is the process of restoring chemical properties that have been deteriorating since the moment new asphalt was laid down. Unlike conventional asphalt emulsion sealers that are water based, asphalt rejuvenators are made from coal tar blended with aromatic oils and solvents. <P> Rejuvenation can be a means of life extension, but most life extension strategies do not involve rejuvenation. Aging is an accumulation of damage to macromolecules, cells, tissues and organs. If any of that damage can be repaired, the result is rejuvenation. There have been many experiments which have been shown to increase the maximum life span of laboratory animals, thereby achieving life extension. <P> Facial rejuvenation is a cosmetic treatment (or series of cosmetic treatments), which aims to restore a youthful appearance to the human face. Facial rejuvenation can be achieved through either surgical and/or non-surgical options. Procedures can vary in invasiveness and depth of treatment. Surgical procedures can restore facial symmetry through targeted procedures and facial restructuring and skin alterations. Facial rejuvenation procedures experienced the most growth, as 2013 marked the highest number of botulinum toxin type A injections to date, with 6.3 million injections. <P> The photo rejuvenation only affects the targeted tissues and leaves the surrounding tissues intact. The only concerns would be short-term redness, bruising and short-term darkening of age spots. A limitation on this procedure is that it cannot treat patients with excessive sagging skin. Photo rejuvenation, a minimally-invasive procedure, only treats the needed areas while leaving the surrounding tissues intact. This provides the patient with smoother, healthier, younger-looking skin. While typically performed on the face, photo rejuvenation can also treat the neck, chest and hands. <P> Vaginal Rejuvenation. Vaginal rejuvenation and labiaplasty are new plastic surgery procedures that are growing steadily in popularity. In fact, vaginal rejuvenation is the 3rd fastest growing area of plastic surgery at this time. Vaginal rejuvenation is also sometimes referred to as “vaginoplasty” or “female genital reconstruction”. Vaginal rejuvenation procedures aim to restore tone and elasticity to the vaginal walls to help women overcome a variety of issues related to these problems. Labiaplasty differs somewhat from vaginal rejuvenation. <P> You seem to have disabled JavaScript. You should really enable it for this site but most things should work without it. Rejuvenation occurs when the river’s base level falls (i.e. when sea level falls). This can be a consequence of either a fall in the amount of sea water or the land rising. Both are the result of the comings and goings of ice ages. <P> With the increasing popularity of various cosmetic surgery procedures, including photo rejuvenation, it is important that the prospective patient research and understand different issues like what the procedure can and cannot treat, inherent risks, costs, and other factors. Photo rejuvenation, a minimally-invasive procedure, only treats the needed areas while leaving the surrounding tissues intact. This provides the patient with smoother, healthier, younger-looking skin. While typically performed on the face, photo rejuvenation can also treat the neck, chest and hands. <P> Before removing the shrub, consider rejuvenation pruning. There are two types of rejuvenation pruning. The first type, extensive rejuvenation pruning, is the practice of cutting the whole shrub to a height of 4-10 inches. After the cut, the shrub will immediately start growing new, healthy, vigorous shoots which give the shrub a new, manageable look with increased flowering. There are a few things to keep in mind with rejuvenation pruning: 1 Not all shrubs respond well. 2 Avoid rejuvenation pruning to junipers, boxwood, narrow leaved evergreens, and shrubs that have only one primary trunk.

how long do you wait to workout after you eat
|
<P> Make it a practice to eat large meals at least three to 4 hours before working out. If you have a smaller sized meal, you can work out two to 3 hours after eating. Light snacks are typically fine when eaten right before and even during exercise. When you are done working out, you can enjoy a meal immediately. <P> It takes 30 to 40 minutes for food to digest in your stomach and 3 to 4 hours for it to absorb in your intestines. I agree that there is no strict formula for this, since it also depends on what you eat and how you intend to expend that energy. <P> How long you need to wait to exercise depends on how big the meal was. If it’s something small, like around 200 calories, you could probably exercise right after eating. However, if you’re eating a large meal, you may need to wait more like 2-3 hours. The smaller the meal the less it will impact your work out. If you know you’re exercising soon after, don’t stuff yourself. <P> Timing. Make it a practice to eat large meals at least three to 4 hours before working out. If you have a smaller sized meal, you can work out two to 3 hours after eating. Light snacks are typically fine when eaten right before and even during exercise. When you are done working out, you can enjoy a meal immediately. <P> Unfortunately, there is no strict formula for this and the answer strongly depends on the intensity of exercise. If you are uncomfortable when exercising, it has a direct effect on my performance. If I eat a full meal, I have to wait 2 to 3 hours before high intensity exercise. tons of fluids.

It is also tremendously popular as a decorative shrub. Just one leaf can kill an adult, and fatal poisonings have resulted from minimal exposure to the twigs, blooms and berries. As if a deadly legume weren’t bad enough, the pulses aren’t so benign, either. The rosary pea may sound sweet and downright pious, but it’s actually one of the most dangerous plants on earth. Its seeds contain a particular lectin known as abrin; if chewed and swallowed, death will follow shortly. <P> Atropa bella-donna, commonly known as Belladonna or Deadly Nightshade, Belladonna is one of the most toxic plants found in the Eastern Hemisphere.

For Aconitum is among the most deadly plants in the world. The most poisonous part is the roots, though the leaves can pack a punch too. Both contain a neurotoxin that can be absorbed through the skin. Early symptoms of poisoning are tingling and numbness at the point of contact or severe vomiting and diarrhoea if it has been eaten. “There’s a difference between poisonous and harmful. You can say what’s the most poisonous plant fairly easily – theoretically looking at the toxins in it and what they can do,” says John Robertson. <P> 1 Also present are ricinine, an alkaloid, and an irritant oil. 2 According to the 2007 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records, the castor oil plant is the most poisonous in the world, though its cousin abrin, found in the seeds of the jequirity plant, is arguably more lethal. 1 One of the most toxic plants found in the Western hemisphere, all parts of the plant contain tropane alkaloids. 2 The active agents are atropine, hyoscine (scopolamine), and hyoscyamine, which have anticholinergic properties. <P> However, many went down the route of the ultimate deterrent – being so poisonous that anything eating them was unlikely to ever do so again. Many of these deadly poisonous plants are the stuff of folklore and have alarming names such as Devil’s helmet,deadly nightshade, the little apple of death and the suicide tree. Whilst these would be enough to put any sane person off eating them I suppose it only helps if you know the name! It is the seed inside the fruit of this plant that is highly poisonous. It contains the powerful alkaloid, cerberin, which is similar to digoxin in foxgloves. These both work by disrupting the heart’s rhythm often with fatal results. Cerbera odollam is a member of the same family as the previously mentioned oleander. <P> Giant hogweed (Heracleum mantegazzianum) has the worst reputation for it, but ‘friendly’ plants such as carrots, celery and limes can all blister the skin in the wrong conditions.

grand canyon elevation

<P> The South Rim elevations go from 6,000 to 7,000 feet and although cool at night, can warm up dramatically during the day. Grand Canyon West is in the 4,000 elevation range and enjoys quite moderate and warm temperatures. <P> 1 The highest points at the Grand Canyon are found at Point Imperial on the North Rim, which is 8,803 feet high, and Navajo Point on the South Rim, which is 7,498 feet high. 2 Compare this to the elevation of the lowest point at Phantom Ranch on the bottom of the canyon floor—which is 2,400 <P> The Grand Canyon is a massive canyon carved over several million years by the Colorado River. Grand Canyon National Park boasts an elevation change of nearly 7,000 feet (2130 m) from Point Imperial (at nearly 9,000 feet or 2740 m) to the banks of Lake Mead (at just over 2,000 feet or 610 m). The canyon itself is, from rim to river over a mile (1610 m) deep. <P> The average elevation of the south rim is around 6,800 feet (2,072 meters) with the highest spot, Grandview Point, being 7,400 feet (2,255 meters). The average elevation of the north rim is about 8,000 feet (2,438 meters) with the highest point, Point Imperial, being 8,800 feet (2,682 meters). The depth of the Canyon at the South Rim, near Grand Canyon Village, measures almost a vertical mile, about 5,000 feet (1,524 meters). To hike to the bottom of the Grand Canyon, JUST to the bottom-NOT back to the top, requires at least one full day. <P> Climate. The Grand Canyon's South Rim has an elevation 7,000 feet above sea level. Such an elevation means snow in the winter and cool nights, even in summer. The Inner Canyon (below the rim) has a distinctly different climate, since at the bottom along the Coloardo River, elevation is almost a mile lower. <P> The Grand Canyon is 277 miles (446 km) long, up to 18 miles (29 km) wide and attains a depth of over a mile (6,093 feet or 1,857 meters).

what is renovascular hypertension
|
<P> Causes. Renovascular hypertension is caused by renal artery stenosis, a narrowing of the artery in the kidney. This results in a decrease in blood flow to one or both kidneys. Each kidney is capable of regulating the body’s blood pressure to assure that each organ has an adequate supply of oxygenated blood. This pattern increases blood pressure, which may result in renovascular hypertension. High blood pressure is a leading cause of stroke and heart attack. The two most common causes of renovascular hypertension are: 1 Atherosclerosis —Fatty plaque builds up in the arteries and blocks blood flow to the kidneys. <P> Renal hypertension is caused by a narrowing in the arteries that deliver blood to the kidney. One or both kidneys ' arteries may be narrowed. This is a condition called renal artery stenosis. When the kidneys receive low blood flow, they act as if the low flow is due to dehydration. High blood pressure is dangerous partly because there are no symptoms, so organ damage can occur slowly without being recognized. Renal hypertension can cause chronic kidney disease. This is a slow decline in kidney function. Until the condition is well advanced, chronic kidney disease also causes no symptoms. <P> Renovascular hypertension is high blood pressure (greater than 140/80 mmHg) caused by renal artery disease. The good news is that renovascular hypertension is one of the few identifiable and treatable causes of high blood pressure — a condition that, if left untreated, can lead to heart attack, stroke or kidney failure. <P> Definition. Renovascular hypertension is high blood pressure that is caused by narrowing (stenosis) of one or both of the arteries, called the renal arteries, that supply blood to the kidneys. Narrowing of the renal arteries reduces blood flow to the kidneys. <P> Renovascular hypertension (or renal hypertension ) is a condition which consists of high blood pressure caused by the kidneys ' hormonal response to narrowing of the arteries supplying the kidneys. When functioning properly this hormonal axis regulates blood pressure. The cause of renovascular hypertension is consistent with any narrowing/blockage of blood supply to the renal organ. As a consequence of this action the renal organs release hormones that indicate to the body to maintain a higher amount of sodium and water, which in turn causes bp to rise. <P> Renovascular Hypertension: Introduction. Renovascular Hypertension: Renovascular hypertension is high blood pressure resulting from narrowing or damage to kidney blood vessels which prevents the blood from flowing through the kidneys properly. More detailed information about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of Renovascular Hypertension is available below. <P> Description. Renovascular hypertension is high blood pressure (greater than 140/80 mmHg) caused by renal artery disease. Normally, the kidneys regulate body fluid and blood pressure, as well as regulate blood chemistry and remove organic waste. The good news is that renovascular hypertension is one of the few identifiable and treatable causes of high blood pressure — a condition that, if left untreated, can lead to heart attack, stroke or kidney failure. <P> Renal hypertension: Introduction. Renal hypertension: Renovascular hypertension is high blood pressure resulting from narrowing or damage to kidney blood vessels which prevents the blood from flowing through the kidneys properly. More detailed information about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of Renal hypertension is available below. <P> A. Renal hypertension, also called renovascular hypertension, is elevated blood pressure caused by kidney disease. It can usually be controlled by blood pressure drugs. Some people with renal hypertension can be helped by angioplasty, stenting, or surgery on the blood vessels of the kidney. High blood pressure is dangerous partly because there are no symptoms, so organ damage can occur slowly without being recognized. Renal hypertension can cause chronic kidney disease. This is a slow decline in kidney function. Until the condition is well advanced, chronic kidney disease also causes no symptoms.

where is nuclear waste stored
|
<P> The purpose of the Yucca Mountain project is to comply with the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 and develop a national site for spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste storage. 1 In the 2014 American science fiction monster film Godzilla, the Yucca Mountain waste repository is used to store a mysterious radioactive pod that is revealed to be the egg of an enormous monster. <P> Radioactive (or nuclear) waste is a byproduct from nuclear reactors, fuel processing plants, hospitals and research facilities. Radioactive waste is also generated while decommissioning and dismantling nuclear reactors and other nuclear facilities. There are two broad classifications: high-level or low-level waste. First, uranium atoms split, creating energy that is used to produce electricity. The fission creates radioactive isotopes of lighter elements such as cesium-137 and strontium-90. These isotopes, called fission products, account for most of the heat and penetrating radiation in high-level waste. <P> Radioactivity naturally decays over time, so radioactive waste has to be isolated and confined in appropriate disposal facilities for a sufficient period until it no longer poses a threat. The time radioactive waste must be stored for depends on the type of waste and radioactive isotopes. Uranium tailings are waste by-product materials left over from the rough processing of uranium-bearing ore. They are not significantly radioactive. Mill tailings are sometimes referred to as 11(e)2 wastes, from the section of the Atomic Energy Act of 1946 that defines them. <P> Plans to store the majority of our nation’s spent nuclear fuel and other highly radioactive waste at a central repository underneath Yucca Mountain in the Nevada desert 80 miles from Las Vegas were first hatched in the mid-1980s. <P> A summary of the amounts of radioactive waste and management approaches for most developed countries are presented and reviewed periodically as part of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Joint Convention on the Safety of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management. Uranium tailings are waste by-product materials left over from the rough processing of uranium-bearing ore. They are not significantly radioactive. Mill tailings are sometimes referred to as 11(e)2 wastes, from the section of the Atomic Energy Act of 1946 that defines them. <P> Storage and Disposal. All U.S. nuclear power plants store spent nuclear fuel in spent fuel pools.. These pools are made of reinforced concrete several feet thick, with steel liners. The water is typically about 40 feet deep and serves both to shield the radiation and cool the rods. First, uranium atoms split, creating energy that is used to produce electricity. The fission creates radioactive isotopes of lighter elements such as cesium-137 and strontium-90. These isotopes, called fission products, account for most of the heat and penetrating radiation in high-level waste. <P> NEI supports the recycling of used nuclear fuel as part of its integrated fuel management strategy, which includes 1) interim storage 2) research, development and demonstration to recycle nuclear fuel, and 3) development of a permanent disposal facility suitable for the final waste form. Used Nuclear Fuel and High-Level Radioactive Waste. A typical nuclear power plant in a year generates 20 metric tons of used nuclear fuel. The nuclear industry generates a total of about 2,000 - 2,300 metric tons of used fuel per year. <P> High-level radioactive waste primarily is uranium fuel that has been used in a nuclear power reactor and is spent, or no longer efficient in producing electricity. Spent fuel is thermally hot as well as highly radioactive and requires remote handling and shielding. First, uranium atoms split, creating energy that is used to produce electricity. The fission creates radioactive isotopes of lighter elements such as cesium-137 and strontium-90. These isotopes, called fission products, account for most of the heat and penetrating radiation in high-level waste. <P> Radioactive waste is hazardous to most forms of life and the environment, and is regulated by government agencies in order to protect human health and the environment. Uranium tailings are waste by-product materials left over from the rough processing of uranium-bearing ore. They are not significantly radioactive. Mill tailings are sometimes referred to as 11(e)2 wastes, from the section of the Atomic Energy Act of 1946 that defines them.

what is a nucleotide
|
<P> A nucleotide is made of a nucleobase (also termed a nitrogenous base), a five-carbon sugar (either ribose or 2-deoxyribose) depending on if it is DNA or RNA, and one or, depending on the definition, more than one phosphate groups. <P> This nucleotide contains the five-carbon sugar deoxyribose, a nitrogenous base called adenine, and one phosphate group. Together, the deoxyribose and adenine make up a nucleoside (specifically, a deoxyribonucleoside) called deoxyadenosine. <P> Nucleotide Definition: A nucleotide is an organic molecule made up of a nucleotide base, a five-carbon sugar (ribose or deoxyribose) and at least one phosphate group. Nucleotides make up the basic units of DNA and RNA molecules. <P> The nucleotide in DNA consists of a sugar (deoxyribose), one of four bases (cytosine (C), thymine (T), adenine (A), guanine (G)), and a phosphate. Cytosine and thymine are pyrimidine bases, while adenine and guanine are purine bases. The sugar and the base together are called a nucleoside. <P> A nucleotide is a monomer of a nucleic acid consisting of 3 parts. These 3 parts include a pentose sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous bases … include purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (cytosine and thymine). <P> A nucleoside consists of a nitrogenous base covalently attached to a sugar (ribose or deoxyribose) but without the phosphate group. A nucleotide consists of a nitrogenous base, a sugar (ribose or deoxyribose) and one to three phosphate groups. <P> DNA molecule consists of nucleotides in which the sugar component is deoxyribose whereas the RNA molecule has nucleotides in which the sugar is a ribose. The most common nucleotides are divided into purines and pyrimidines based on the structure of the nitrogenous base. <P> Definition of NUCLEOTIDE. : any of several compounds that consist of a ribose or deoxyribose sugar joined to a purine or pyrimidine base and to a phosphate group and that are the basic structural units of nucleic acids (as RNA and DNA) — compare nucleoside. <P> A nucleotide is one of the structural components, or building blocks, of DNA and RNA. A nucleotide consists of a base (one of four chemicals: adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine) plus a molecule of sugar and one of phosphoric acid.

is the neutron the subatomic particle that determines chemical properties of a atom
|
<P> The atomic mass (also referred to as the atomic weight) is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. Atoms of an element that have differing numbers of neutrons (but a constant atomic number) are termed isotopes. The proton is located in the center (or nucleus) of an atom, each atom has at least one proton. Protons have a charge of +1, and a mass of approximately 1 atomic mass unit (amu). Elements differ from each other in the number of protons they have, e.g. Hydrogen has 1 proton; Helium has 2. <P> Atoms are composed of three type of particles: protons, neutrons, and electron. Protons and neutrons are responsible for most of the atomic mass e.g in a 150 person 149 lbs, 15 oz are protons and neutrons while only 1 oz. is electrons. The mass of an electron is very small (9.108 X 10 -28 grams). Both the protons and neutrons reside in the nucleus. Protons have a postive (+) charge, neutrons have no charge --they are neutral. Electrons reside in orbitals around the nucleus. They have a negative charge (-). It is the number of protons that determines the atomic number, e.g., H = 1. The number of protons in an element is constant (e.g., H=1, Ur=92) but neutron number may vary, so mass number (protons + neutrons) may vary <P> We'll start with the subatomic particles, electrons, protons, and neutrons, and then look at the mass of an atom (the mass number), how the particles are arranged in an atom (its structure), and what determines an element's identity (the atomic number). Electrons. All atoms (except hydrogen)* consist of 3 kinds of particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. The properties of an atom – its mass, its charge, what element it is, what isotope of that element it is – are completely determined by how many of each kind of particle it has. <P> The number of protons in the nucleus defines to what chemical element the atom belongs: for example, all copper atoms contain 29 protons. The number of neutrons defines the isotope of the element. The number of electrons influences the magnetic properties of an atom. Atoms can attach to one or more other atoms by chemical bonds to form chemical compounds such as molecules. Every atom is composed of a nucleus and one or more electrons bound to the nucleus. The nucleus is made of one or more protons and typically a similar number of neutrons (none in hydrogen-1). Protons and neutrons are called nucleons. <P> is the. (nucleons) in the nucleus. Isotope is one of two or more forms of atoms of an element that differ in their number of neutrons. They have the same atomic number (same number of protons and electrons), but a different mass number due to more or fewer neutrons. Atoms have an equal number of protons and electrons; therefore, they have a no net charge. Ion is an atom that has gained or lost one or more electrons, thus becoming positively or negatively charged. Neutron is an uncharged particle of the nucleus of all atoms EXCEPT hydrogen. For a given element, the. <P> Structure and Properties of Atoms 1 / 17 PS-2.1 Compare the subatomic particles (protons, neutrons, electrons) of an atom with regard to mass, location, and charge, and explain how these particles affect the properties of an atom (including identity, mass, volume, and reactivity). Compare subatomic particles by Particle type: ο the atom is composed of subatomic particles (protons, neutrons, and electrons) that affect the properties of an atom. Particle mass: ο protons and neutrons have about the same mass. <P> Their properties and interactions are described by nuclear physics. The nucleus consists of Z protons, where Z is called the atomic number, and N neutrons, where N is the neutron number. The atomic number defines the chemical properties of the atom, and the neutron number determines the isotope or nuclide. The terms isotope and nuclide are often used synonymously, but they refer to chemical and nuclear properties, respectively. The atomic mass number, symbol A, equals Z+N.

how to reduce the memory size of an image
|
<P> Of course, you can also reduce the image size by shrinking the actual size of the image. For example, if your image is 6000x4000 pixels and you don't need the image to be larger than 3000x2000 pixels, you can reduce the image size by 50%. A 50% reduction in image size can reduce the file size by as much as 75% since the resulting image only has 1/4 as many pixels. You can also reduce the image's DPI to save disk space. For example, reducing a 600 dpi image to 300 dpi may shrink the file size as much as 75%. However, if you print the image, the resolution will not be as high and the image will not be as sharp <P> Compress the image using image editing software. One of the quickest ways to reduce the file size of an image is to compress it into a different format. Open your file in an image editing program (even Paint will work) and save it as a compressed file type. The most common form of image compression is JPG. 1 JPG will result in a smaller file but with a noticeable drop in quality. 2 Many image editing programs such as Photoshop will allow you to choose the quality of the JPG. 3 The lower the quality, the smaller the file size. 4 Each time you re-compress a JPG image, it will lose quality. <P> 1 For example, Replace “100” with “90” to reduce the image by 10%. 2 Repeat until the image is the size you want. 3 As the image gets smaller, the quality will decrease. 4 This will become especially apparent if you try to enlarge the image back to its original size. 1 JPG will result in a smaller file but with a noticeable drop in quality. 2 Many image editing programs such as Photoshop will allow you to choose the quality of the JPG. 3 The lower the quality, the smaller the file size. 4 Each time you re-compress a JPG image, it will lose quality. <P> 1 The lower the quality, the smaller the file size. 2 Each time you re-compress a JPG image, it will lose quality. 3 There are a variety of programs and online services that will compress images without you needing to install a full-blown image editing suite. 1 JPG will result in a smaller file but with a noticeable drop in quality. 2 Many image editing programs such as Photoshop will allow you to choose the quality of the JPG. 3 The lower the quality, the smaller the file size. 4 <P> Using a computer to re-compress jpeg images is also a big leap in reducing the file size since the parameters of the jpeg library used in digital cameras trade size for memory usage and processing power. The computer has plenty of memory and processing power so that the jpeg library can compress better. - image resolution.

how much does a linear meter of brickwork cost
|
<P> A natural stone wall will cost around $8 to $12 per square foot based on the type of stone chosen. A concrete block wall costs $6.10 to $7.60 per linear foot. Homeowners will also need to pay for any other materials needed, including steel bars, sand to keep the stones from rubbing against each other and mortar. Cost of Materials. The cost of adding a new wall to a home depends on the material used. Brick walls are often an affordable option, and a hollow brick wall costs around $25.40 per square foot. Hollow bricks feature a unique design with a durable shell and a hollow space in the center of each brick. <P> Country: I've been quoted £53 per square meter for block/insulation/brick. This means that a room which is 6x6x6.5 including the laying of engineering bricks and above the ceiling (parapet) is going to cost me approximately £3550. I've worked it out be about 67 square metres. <P> Building prices for repointing. Pointing is the outer layer of mortar that is used when laying a brick wall. To repoint a wall means to remove the old existing mortar to a certain depth and then replace it with new mortar. The old mortar is raked out using a trowel or similar device and then replaced with new mortar. Had to pay 2300 for raking out and repointing 39 meter square, and 1200 for scaffolding front and side of 4 bed house In total 3500 job done all included. <P> It costs roughly … $11-$13 for the materials and contractors average about $5-$8 per square foot for labor, not including steps. For example, my company charges approximately $18 per square foot to build a deck. A cube of brick, which is approximately 500 bricks. Two cubes of brick make up a thousand, so $300/thousand brick means $150/cube. If you buy less than a cube, they hit you hard on the price, so round up and besides, running short a few brick sucks. <P> How much do bricklayers charge for 1 square metre of brickwork and blockwork. According to Homebuilding.co.uk, it will cost you around £145 per day per bricklayer, plus £90 for a labourer. Bricklayers often quote per 1,000 laid bricks; that's often around £350-400, or £10-12 per square meter. <P> - If I were to build a brick vaneer wall the cost would be $280 per linear meter for the outside brick wall part and aprox 70% of the cost of brick for the timber frame (being 70% of $280 per linear meter) is $196 per linear meter making it $280 (brick) + $196 (Timber Frame) ie $476 per linear meter. I have found basic bricks as cheap as 60cent each with the top end quality at $1.50 per brick. I have asked brickies the cost of laying a brick and been told anywhere from $1.00 - $1.2 <P> Given a wall height of x 2.7m high the cost of laying a wall would be. $104m2 x 2.7 heigh = $280 per linear meter. This is for one Skin / row and. - If I was to build a double brick wall the cost would be double per m2 ie - $560 per linear meter. I have found basic bricks as cheap as 60cent each with the top end quality at $1.50 per brick. I have asked brickies the cost of laying a brick and been told anywhere from $1.00 - $1.2 <P> A gardener wishes to enclose a rectangular garden with a brick wall along one side and and wood fencing along the other three sides. The brick wall will cost $80 per foot and the wood fence will cost $40 per square foot. Since each linear foot will cost a total of $34 ($26 for the exterior wall, $8 for the interior wall), the cost to close the garden and add the interior wall is: <P> Average Cost/Price of Pointing /Repointing Walls/Bricks/House.

describe mendel's law of independent assortment

<P> Share. By Regina Bailey. Definition: The principles that govern heredity were discovered by a monk named Gregor Mendel in the 1860's. One of these principles, now called Mendel's law of independent assortment, states that allele pairs separate independently during the formation of gametes. <P> Mendel law of independent assortment states that when two traits are together,followed in same cross ,the distribution of alleles for one trait in the gametes does not affect … the distribution of allele for the other trait. 4 people found this useful. The Law of Independent Assortment states that the factors for individual characteristics are distributed to gametes independently. Is observed only for genes that are located … on separate chromosomes or are far apart on the same chromosome. 12 <P> Independent assortment is a basic principle of genetics developed by a monk named Gregor Mendel in the 1860's. Mendel formulated this principle after discovering another principle now known as Mendel's law of segregation. This principle states that the alleles for a trait separate when gametes are formed. He noticed the same ratios in each case. From these experiments Mendel formulated what is now known as Mendel's law of independent assortment. This law states that allele pairs separate independently during the formation of gametes. Therefore, traits are transmitted to offspring independently of one another.\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t\\t <P> The Law of Independent Assortment states that the alleles (or separate members of a gene pair) separate independently to form the gamete. By doing so, the traits are transferr … ed independent from one another. Novanet answer Different traits are passed on to the offspring seperately from one another.....Good Luck. *****Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment states that factors for different characteristics are distributed to reproductive cells independently. <P> One of these principles, now called Mendel's law of independent assortment, states that allele pairs separate independently during the formation of gametes. This means that traits are transmitted to offspring independently. Novanet answer Different traits are passed on to the offspring seperately from one another.....Good Luck. *****Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment states that factors for different characteristics are distributed to reproductive cells independently. It does NOT state that the alleles separate during the forming of gametes. That is the Law of Segregation <P> B. Mendel's second law, the law of independent assortment, says that alleles of different genes assort independently of one another during gamete formation. The second law describes the outcome of dihybrid (two character) crosses, or hybrid crosses involving more than two traits. 1. <P> Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment To this point we have followed the expression of only one gene. Mendel also performed crosses in which he followed the segregation of two genes. These experiments formed the basis of his discovery of his second law, the law of independent assortment. First, a few terms are presented. Mendel's Second Law-the law of independent assortment; during gamete formation the segregation of the alleles of one allelic pair is independent of the segregation of the alleles of another allelic pair. As with the monohybrid crosses, Mendel confirmed the results of his second law by performing a backcross-F <P> The Law of Independent Assortment. Mendel's third law, the law of independent assortment, states that the way an allele pair gets segregated into two daughter cells during the second division of meiosis has no effect on how any other allele pair gets segregated. A parent may have two distinct alleles for a certain gene, each on one copy of a given chromosome. Mendel's second law, the law of segregation, states that these two alleles will be separated from each other during meiosis.

Nutrients such as oxygen and the likes are transported all throughout the different part of the body through the blood vessels (composed of arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules and veins). Many scientists believe that blood is a specialized form of connective tissue. The reason is because of its origin in the bones and the presence of fibers in the form of fibrinogen. Not all liquids can be a connective tissue. The only reason why blood is considered that way is due to the fact that is has a concentration of ‘ground substances, like calcium, minerals and phosphorus in its extra-cellular matrix.

what causes serratia infection
|
<P> Serratia is a genus of Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria of the Enterobacteriaceae family. The most common species in the genus, S. marcescens, is normally the only pathogen and usually causes nosocomial infections. However, rare strains of S. plymuthica, S. liquefaciens, S. rubidaea, and S. odoriferae have caused diseases through infection. <P> In humans, S. marcescens can cause infection in several sites, including the urinary tract, respiratory tract, wounds, and the eye, where it may cause conjunctivitis, keratitis, endophthalmitis, and tear duct infections. <P> Serratia marcescens is normally associated with nosocomial infections like catheter-associated bacteremia. In hospitalized adults, it is very common in urinary tract infections and sometimes in wound infections. Diagnosis in children often find the disease in the gastrointestinal system. Serratia Marcescens symptoms are commonly associated with urinary tract infections, but in 30% to 50% of reported cases, there are no symptoms to assist diagnosis. <P> S. marcescens is accountable for approximately 2 % of nosocomial infections of the blood, urinary tract, respiratory tract, wounds, and skin in adult patients. S. marcescens wound infections, meningitis and arthritis occur in the neonates. The primary risk factor for sepsis is prolonged hospitalization. Intra-venous, intra-peritoneal, or urinary catheters and instruments introduced in to the respiratory tract are chief hazards among in-patients. <P> While S. marcescens is a rare cause of community-acquired infections, it has emerged as an important nosocomial healthcare-associated pathogen and a frequent source of outbreaks of hospital infection (72), in both adult (122) and paediatric patients (115). Serratia marcescens is a member of the genus Serratia, which is a part of the family Enterobacteriaceae. Currently 14 species of Serratia are recognized within the genus, eight of which are associated with human infection (67). <P> Sepsis: Patients with Serratia sepsis may present with fever, chills, shock, and respiratory distress. Urinary tract infection. 1 Approximately 30-50% of patients with Serratia urinary tract infections are asymptomatic. 2 Symptoms may include fever, frequent urination, dysuria, pyuria, or pain upon urination. 3 In 90% of cases, patients have a history of recent surgery or instrumentation of the urinary tract. Respiratory tract infection. 1 Patients with Serratia respiratory tract infection are usually are colonized with Serratia species after instrumentation (eg, ventilation, bronchoscopy), especially those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. <P> The prevalence of Serratia species as a cause of nosocomial infections is diminishing, but these bacteria are still able to cause hospital outbreaks, especially in intensive care units. Serratia species are opportunistic gram-negative bacteria classified in the tribe Klebsielleae and the large family Enterobacteriaceae. Serratia are widespread in the environment, but are not a common component of the human fecal flora. <P> Serratia infection is responsible for about 2% of nosocomial infections of the bloodstream, lower respiratory tract, urinary tract, surgical wounds, and skin and soft tissues in adult patients. The most common species in the genus, S. marcescens, is normally the only pathogen and usually causes nosocomial infections. However, rare strains of S. plymuthica, S. liquefaciens, S. rubidaea, and S. odoriferae have caused diseases through infection. <P> Currently Serratia is the seventh most common cause of pneumonia with an incidence of 4.1% in the US, 3.2% in Europe and 2.4% in Latin America (51), and the tenth most common cause of bloodstream infection with an incidence of 2.0% amongst hospitalized patients (2).

<P> A mineral is defined as a naturally occurring substance, with a fixed chemical formula, and an ordered atomic structure. Pearl is an animal product. Somewhat similarly, lime … stones are not in themselves minerals, though they are composed of known minerals such as calcite and aragonite. Opal is another curiosity, considered a mineraloid, as its atomic structure is not simply fixed. The heart of a saltwater cultured pearl is a mother-of-pearl bead, but the deposit is completely regular layered scales of calcium carbonate. Therefore, yes, a pearl is most definitely a mineral, and also a semi-precious stone. <P> Crushed Pearl Powder-This white powder has no sheen and has been known to have healing benefits to the skin. Pearl powders have been known to contain about 18 amino acids and over a dozen minerals. There are also 10 essential amino acids necessary for the human body to heal and maintain cell nutrition. <P> Like: Share: PEARL is often considered a gemstone, although it is not a mineral. Rather, pearl is a composite of the mineral Aragonite (Calcium Carbonate) and the organic compound conchiolin (a protein). The combination is called nacre, or mother-of-pearl. In some cases, there is an admixture of the mineral calcite (another mineral composed of Calcium Carbonate). In pearl oysters and freshwater pearl mussels, nacre forms the inner lining of the shell. <P> Pearl. Search Photos of Pearl. A pearl is an organic mineral mixture formed with the soft living tissue of a shelled mollusk.

what is tarmac made of
|
<P> Tarmac (short for tarmacadam, or tar-penetration macadam) is a type of road surfacing material patented by Edgar Purnell Hooley in 1901. The term is also used, with varying degrees of correctness, for a variety of other materials, including tar-grouted macadam, bituminous surface treatments, and modern asphalt concrete. The term is also often used incorrectly to describe airport aprons, ramps, and runways. This method involved spreading tar on the subgrade, placing a typical macadam layer, and finally sealing the macadam with a mixture of tar and sand. Tar-grouted macadam was in use well before 1900, and involved scarifying the surface of an existing macadam pavement, spreading tar, and re-compacting. <P> Macadam (crushed rock) roads are prone to rutting and generating dust. Methods to stabilize macadam surfaces with tar date back to at least 1834 when John Henry Cassell, operating from Cassell's Patent Lava Stone Works in Millwall, patented lava stone. This method involved spreading tar on the subgrade, placing a typical macadam layer, and finally sealing the macadam with a mixture of tar and sand. Tar-grouted macadam was in use well before 1900, and involved scarifying the surface of an existing macadam pavement, spreading tar, and re-compacting. <P> Asphalt is a mixture of aggregates, binder and filler, used for constructing and maintaining all kind of roads, parking areas but also play-and sport areas. Aggregates used for asphalt mixtures could be crushed rock, sand, gravel or slags. In order to bind the aggregates into a cohesive mixture a binder is used. Although asphalt is mainly used for paving roads, it can also be used for various other purposes. The versatility of asphalt makes it such a widely used material. <P> Asphalt (US /ˈaesfɔːlt/ ˈæsfɔːlt OR /uk/ , ˈaesfaelt /ˈæsfælt/), occasionally ˈaeʃfɔːlt ˈæʃfɔːlt also (/known, as-/), bitumen bɪˈtjuːmən baɪ, is a sticky black and highly viscous-liquid or semi solid. form of petroleum Mastic asphalt is a type of asphalt which differs from dense graded asphalt (asphalt concrete) in that it has a higher asphalt/bitumen (binder) content, usually around 7–10% of the whole aggregate mix, as opposed to rolled asphalt concrete, which has only around 5% added asphalt/bitumen. <P> Tarmac = a shortening of tarmacadam, which is a mixture of a binder (usually bitumen) and various sizes of crushed rock and/or sand. It is also called asphalt (as technically … Tarmacadam is a brand name). Tarmac is an oil-based product; the binder is a heavy tar or bitumen and as such, it can be 'thinned' by the addition of a lighter oil, such as paraffin, petrol or even … turpentine. <P> Tarmacadam is a retooling of macadam, a type of road construction invented by John Loudon McAdam in the early 19th century. Macadamized roads are made from three layers of aggregate materials decreasing in size, with the bottom layer being the largest and heaviest. <P> Description. Grant Stott takes a look at the invention of tarmac. Roads used to be made from clay, earth or chalk, but these materials were very messy. John McAdam thought it would be easier if the roads were covered in small stones and invented tarmac. It took his company 30 years to cover all roads across the UK. <P> Best Answer: Tarmac (short for tarmacadam, a portmanteau for tar-penetration macadam) is a type of road surface. Tarmac refers to a material patented by Edgar Purnell Hooley in 1901. The term is also used, with varying degrees of correctness, for a variety of other materials, including tar-grouted macadam, Tarvia, bituminous surface treatments and even modern asphalt concrete. <P> tarmac. n. 1. (Civil Engineering) a paving material that consists of crushed stone rolled and bound with a mixture of tar and bitumen, esp as formerly used for a road, airport runway, etc. Full name: tarmacadam See also macadam. 2. (Aeronautics) the tarmac a runway at an airport: on the tarmac at Nairobi airport. <P> Tarmac is not widely used on roads any more, or ramps. That material is known as asphalt. Most large airports actually use concrete. Some county rural roads are actually paved with a tarmac like, or chip and seal like material over crushed rock. To anon82548: No one said asphalt is not used on airports. Of course it is, and in the manner you stated. Tarmac is not asphalt -- similar, but different! The term tarmac is only used by the clueless when talking about modern and/or US airports.

what is a gong used for in china
|
<P> There are two main types of gongs. The suspended gong is generally a flat sheet of metal (bronze, typically) that is hung in the air vertically. It is not tuned to a specific pitch, and thus makes a loud, multi-toned crash when played. The bossed or button gong is common in gamelan ensembles, among other places. <P> Origin of the Gong Experts state that the word Gong comes from Malaysia. However, all cultures capable of producing bronze had some type of Gons. Gongs have been created in Southeast Asia, India, Tibet, China, Korea, Japan. Indonesian gongs, in particular, produce a specific tone. The reverberation is moderate. Another type of Gong, the Chinese chan luoi is especially popular in orchestras and music therapy. <P> Qi gong is an ancient type of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that has been used for thousands of years. There are many different styles of performing Qi gong. The two main types of Qi gong practice are internal Qi gong and external Qi gong. <P> But they are not noted in Chinese history until about 500 A.D. Chinese history attributes gongs to the HSI YU nation, located between Burma and Tibet. It is believed by historians that Java, Annam, Burma, and China were the main gong producing centers. It is known that these centers produced at least seven gong forms and corresponding sound-structures. <P> Falun Gong (Chinese, Practice of the Wheel of Dharma) is a Chinese movement founded by Li Hongzhi in 1992. Its adherents exercise ritually to obtain mental and spiritual renewal. <P> Gongs are traditionally found throughout East and Southeast Asia, most prominently in China and throughout Indonesia. The significance of the gong: Gongs are used both for religious ceremonial purposes and for making music throughout Asia.

what age can doctors draw pension
|
<P> For each birth year after 1954, the retirement age rises by two months, so if you were born in 1959, your full retirement age is 66 and 10 months. You can collect a Social Security retirement benefit starting at age 62, but it will be 30 percent lower than if you waited until age 66. Persons born in 1960 and later must wait until age 67 to collect their full retirement benefit. At that age you can start withdrawals from your 401(k) or IRA without penalty, although you must pay income taxes on the withdrawals. You must start drawing money from the accounts when you reach age 70 ½. <P> The earlier you start drawing Social Security, the smaller your monthly payment will be. If you start at 62, you will receive 25 percent less per month than you would at your full retirement age of 66 (if you were born between 1943 and 1954). For those born later, the reduction grows gradually to 30 percent. The retirement age is 67 for people born in 1960 or later <P> NOTE: Even though the full retirement age is no longer 65, you should sign up for Medicare three months before your 65 th birthday. Early retirement You can get Social Security retirement benefits as early as age 62. However, we’ll reduce your benefit if you retire before your full retirement age. Age to receive full Social Security benefits Year of birth Full retirement age 1943-1954 661955 66 and 2 months1956 66 and 4 months1957 66 and 6 months1958 66 and 8 months1959 66 and 10 months1960 and later 67 NOTE: People born on January 1 of any year should refer to the previous year. <P> A. No. Unlike some plans, your benefits are not coordinated with amounts you may receive from Social Security. Q. I’m nearing age 65 and heard that I can start drawing my pension at age 65 and still work for the same employer. If you retire after age 65, you also qualify for a late retirement factor that gives you an even higher benefit for the time you wait to retire after age 65 (click here to see how your late retirement factor increases). Remember, you must start receiving benefits by age 70, even if you are still working. <P> Full retirement age is the age at which a person may first become entitled to full or unreduced retirement benefits. No matter what your full retirement age (also called normal retirement age) is, you may start receiving benefits as early as age 62 or as late as age 70. <P> A: PBGC is a federal agency created by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) to protect pension benefits in private-sector defined benefit plans-the kind that typically pay a set monthly amount at retirement. PBGC can pay you only $1000 per month ($900 per month early retirement benefit plus $100 supplement) until age 62 and $900 per month after age 62. Other limitations may reduce your benefit, or the allocation of the assets of the plan may increase it. <P> Full retirement age If you were born in 1944 or earlier, you already are eligible for your full Social Security benefit. If you were born from 1943 to 1960, the age at which full retirement benefits are payable increases gradually to age 67. The following chart lists the full retirement age by year of birth. Age to receive full Social Security benefits Year of birth Full retirement age 1943-1954 661955 66 and 2 months1956 66 and 4 months1957 66 and 6 months1958 66 and 8 months1959 66 and 10 months1960 and later 67 NOTE: People born on January 1 of any year should refer to the previous year. <P> 1 Pension reform is required because people are living longer. 2 Today, a 60-year-old doctor retiring can expect to enjoy 29 years of retirement. 3 This means drawing a pension for almost the same time as they worked for the NHS - 36 years. 1 Compare this with a newly qualified doctor joining the reformed scheme after 2015. 2 He can expect a pension of over £53,000 at age 65 (the normal pension age for new joiners) or a pension of around £68,000 a year at his state pension age of 68. <P> If You Retire Early. You can retire at any time between age 62 and full retirement age. However, if you start benefits early, your benefits are reduced a fraction of a percent for each month before your full retirement age. The chart below lists age 62 reduction amounts and includes examples based on an estimated monthly benefit of $1000 at full retirement age. No matter what your full retirement age (also called normal retirement age) is, you may start receiving benefits as early as age 62 or as late as age 70. <P> Not until you reach retirement age. Typically that's 65, though many pension plans allow you to start collecting early retirement benefits as early as age 55. If you decide to start receiving benefits before you reach full retirement age, the size of your monthly payout will be less than it would have been if you'd waited.

what if my house doesn't appraise for the selling price
|
<P> Another home appraisal function is to help set your downpayment amount on a purchase. Mortgage lenders use home appraisals as the value portion of the your mortgage's loan-to-value (LTV) calculation, where value is equal to the lower of your home's purchase price or its appraised value. <P> So if the home under appraises there are only three options (1) you as the Seller can reduce the price to appraised value (2) the buyer can pay the difference in cash at closing (3) either party can usually cancel the sale (buyer on financing and seller because sale price wasn't met). <P> Conversely, if your home appraises for more than the purchase price, the required downpayment amount is $14,350. When your home appraises for less than its purchase price, there are three potential outcomes 1 : Buyer and seller renegotiate a new, lower home sale price. <P> Your home's market value has nothing to do with what you paid for it, how much money you need to retire or how much you need to buy your next home. Your real estate agent's market analysis doesn't determine market value-only a range of prices so you can choose a listing price that will help your home sell quickly. <P> If not, and you accept an offer on your home and the home doesn't appraise you have the option of dropping the price to the appraised value, negotiating with the buyer to split the difference or holding out for a 20% down payment buyer or cash buyer. <P> So, what happens if your home doesn’t appraise for the selling price. One of several things. You can dispute the appraisal report. You can lower the selling price to match the value determined by the appraiser. The buyer can come up with the difference (rare, for several reasons). <P> If your home doesn’t appraise for the selling price, you and the buyer will both have to make some decisions. Those decisions could result in the deal moving forward, or falling off the tracks. 1 The buyer could pay the difference out of pocket, which doesn’t happen very often. <P> AL BRENT, , Rocky River, OH. If your house does not appraise for the selling price, usually there are three options. No. 1 The buyers can raise their down payment by the difference of their current down payment and the difference in the appraisal. i.e. Selling Price $200,000 Appraisal $190,000.

<P> 3. Important in maintaining biodiversity among species. User Contributions / Comments: 1 Genetic variation is important in that it may provide alternative phenotypes which may respond to the environment in different ways. <P> An alteration in the normal sequence of a gene, the significance of which is often unclear until further study of the genotype and corresponding phenotype occurs in a sufficiently large population. Complete gene sequencing often identifies numerous allelic variants (sometimes hundreds) for a given gene. <P> Genetic variation. Genetic variation, variation in alleles of genes, occurs both within and among populations. Genetic variation is important because it provides the genetic material for natural selection. Genetic variation is brought about by mutation, which is a permanent change in the chemical structure of a gene. Polyploidy is an example of chromosomal mutation. Polyploidy is a condition wherein organisms have three or more sets of genetic variation. <P> Medical Definition of GENETICS. 1. a: a branch of biology that deals with the heredity and variation of organisms b: a treatise or textbook on genetics. 2. : the genetic makeup and phenomena of an organism, type, group, or condition.

ADVERTISEMENT. <P> Human genetic variation is the genetic differences both within and among populations. There may be multiple variants of any given gene in the human population (genes), leading to polymorphism. Many genes are not polymorphic, meaning that only a single allele is present in the population: the gene is then said to be fixed. <P> Your genes have alleles, which are different forms of the same gene. Alleles are like a code for your body that determine hair color and eye color, height, and other genetic features. Genetic variation is the variation in alleles and genes, both within and among populations. Think of a population as a family unit. Gene flow is the movement of genetic information between different populations. This method increases genetic variation because introducing new alleles into a population increases the amount of diversity. The more alleles available in a population, the more variation that can occur. <P> By Regina Bailey. Definition: In genetic variation, the genes of organisms within a population change. Gene alleles determine distinct traits that can be passed on from parents to offspring. Gene variation is important to the process of natural selection. The genetic variations that arise in a population happen by chance, but the process of natural selection does not. Natural selection is the result of the interactions between genetic variations in a population and the environment <P> Genetic variation is a fact that a biological system – individual and population – is different over space. It is the base of the genetic variability of different biological systems in space. Genetic variation is based on the variation in alleles of genes in a gene pool. It occurs both within and among populations, supported by individual carriers of the variant genes. Genetic variation is brought about by random mutation, which is a permanent change in the chemical structure of a gene. <P> 1 Genetic variation is important in that it may provide alternative phenotypes which may respond to the environment in different ways.

what are acetate fibers
|
<P> Federal Trade Commission Definition for Acetate Fiber: A manufactured fiber in which the fiber forming substance is cellulose acetate. Where not less than 92% of the hydroxyl groups are acetylated, the term triacetate may be used as a generic description of the fiber. In cross-dyeing, yarns of one fiber (e.g., acetate) and those of another fiber (cotton or rayon) are woven into a fabric in a desired pattern. After the fabric has been dyed in one bath, this pattern will appear in different colors or shades according to the distribution of the respective fibers. <P> Acetate Fiber: A manufactured fiber in which the fiber-forming substance is called cellulose acetate (FTC definition). Acetate ismanufactured by treating purified cellulose refined from cotton linters and/or wood pulp with acetic anhydride in the presence of a catalyst.he cellulose acetate fibers are intermingled and wound onto a bobbin or shippable metier cheese package, ready for use without further chemical processing. In the manufacture of staple fiber, the filaments from numerous spinnerets are combined into tow form, crimped, cut to the required length, and packaged in bales. <P> Cellulose acetate is the acetate ester of cellulose. It was first prepared in 1865. Cellulose acetate is used as a film base in photography, as a component in some coatings, and as a frame material for eyeglasses; it is also used as a synthetic fiber in the manufacture of cigarette filters and playing cards. <P> Acetate fibers are molded from solutions of cellulose acetate in organic solvents (triacetate cellulose in a mixture of methylene chloride and alcohol, secondary cellulose acetate in acetone), usually by the so-called dry method. By this method filaments, the so-called acetate silk, are obtained. In the process of obtaining staple acetate fibers, molding takes place by the dry or the wet method. Because acetate fibers are twice as elastic as viscose and cuprammonium fibers, fabrics made from them are noted for crinkle resistance. <P> Cellulose acetate or acetate rayon fiber (1924) is one of the earliest synthetic fibers and is based on cotton or tree pulp cellulose (biopolymers). These cellulosic fibers have passed their peak as cheap petro-based fibers (nylon and polyester) and have displaced regenerated pulp fibers. <P> Federal Trade Commission Definition for Acetate Fiber: A manufactured fiber in which the fiber forming substance is cellulose acetate. Where not less than 92% of the hydroxyl groups are acetylated, the term triacetate may be used as a generic description of the fiber. (Complete FTC Fiber Rules here .). <P> Acetate fibers are used principally in the production of general consumer articles (outer clothing, lingerie, and lining and dress fabrics). The staple acetate fibers are used as partial substitutes for wool in the manufacture of fine fabrics and various kinds of knitwear. The use of acetate fibers reduces shrinkage. By this method filaments, the so-called acetate silk, are obtained. In the process of obtaining staple acetate fibers, molding takes place by the dry or the wet method. Because acetate fibers are twice as elastic as viscose and cuprammonium fibers, fabrics made from them are noted for crinkle resistance. <P> Acetate and triacetate. The term acetate fibres is used to describe fibres made from cellulose acetate. The difference between acetate and triacetate fibres lies in the number of the cellulose hydroxyl groups that are acetylated. <P> 2. Acetate fiber is the man-made fiber that is made of cellulose acetate, which is the acetic acid ester of cellulose. It has a very long history, and was first produced in 1923 by an English company, Celanese, in the form of diacetate silk.cetate fiber is produced by reacting high purity wood pulp with acetic anhydride. The acetate flakes that are produced through this chemical reaction are dissolved in a solvent, filtered, and adjusted to obtain spinning stock solution. <P> Definition: Acetate is a manufactured fiber in which the fiber-forming substance is cellulose acetate. Where not less than 92% of the hydroxyl groups are acetylated, the term triacetate may be used as a generic description of the fiber (Source-Textile Fiber Products Identification Act, Federal Trade Commission).cetate was the second manufactured fiber to be developed. 1 Acetate and triacetate are modified cellulosic fibers also known as derivative cellulosic fibers. 2 They are produced by acetylation (replacing the hydroxyl groups with acetyl groups) of the cellulose molecule.

typical throughput on a wifi connection
|
<P> According to CNN, the typical American connection speed is 8.6 Mbps. This is up 27 percent from 2012, and if you live in certain parts of the country, such as Vermont, expect a better-than-average 12.7 Mbps. <P> Routers are also rated on a b, g, or n system, with the same speed ratings as the wireless adapter in your computer. If your computer has a “b” adapter and the router has a “g” rating, the maximum bandwidth that you’ll have is still 11 Mbps, or the highest that your computer can attain. A computer with a wireless “n” adapter connecting to a router with an “n” adapter can achieve the greatest bandwidth at 300 Mbps. <P> Answer: The typical peak throughput (sustained data rate) of an 802.11b wireless connection under ideal conditions for end user data is roughly 4-5 Mbps. This level of performance assumes a wireless client in very close proximity (within a few meters) of the base station or other communication endpoint. <P> The theoretical peak bandwidth of an 802.11b wireless connection is 11 Mbps. This is a performance number advertised on 802.11b Wi-Fi equipment, that many people equate with the expected speed of a network. However, this level of performance is never achieved in practice due to network overhead and other factors. <P> The speed of the router and your computer are ultimately influenced by the bandwidth of the Internet connection you use. If your high-speed Internet provider offers bandwidth up to 100 Mbps, then your router won’t magically transform that into 300 Mbps: it will stay at 100 Mbps. <P> Tags: throughput, speed, actual, Wi-Fi. There are many wireless standards in use today, and newer technologies can bond multiple channels/frequencies together to achieve higher throughput. <P> If you have a broadband Internet connection (wired or wireless), you’ve got two main concerns: cost per month and speed. Faster networks mean quicker downloads and easier uploads, and over time they help minimize your use of bandwidth, which could save you money, depending on your provider.

what is synthrapol
|
<P> Jacquard Synthrapol Detergent is an industrial strength, neutral detergent created especially for fabric dyeing with Jacquard Procion MX Fiber Reactive Dyes. Used as a prewash or afterwash, it helps prevent backstaining by keeping loose dye particles in suspension. <P> Use 1/4 cup (2 oz) of Synthrapol per full washing machine load for cotton, Rayon, hemp, etc. and 1/8 cup (1 oz) for silks or front loading wash machines. Some folks say you can get away with less, but it depends on what you are doing, the hardness of your water, etc. Prewashing in Synthrapol helps remove invisible lubricants, fingerprints, dirt, oil, silk worm gum and other impurities that can interfere with the dye and cause uneven dyeing. It is especially important for tub dyeing where you want an even consistant dye job. <P> (Synthrapol vs. Retayne). We decided to solve this question once and for all. After a diligent Google search, the answer is: Retayne FIXES dye to fabric and should be used in cases where you are concerned that a fabric dye may bleed. Use Retayne as directed, as a pre-wash or before putting suspect fabrics into a quilt. Synthrapol is a special detergent that suspends dye particles so that they do not reattach to fabric <P> It also removes sizing from fabric prior to dyeing. Will allow even color when used in the dye bath. It is recommended to use Synthrapol when washing hand dyed fabrics before using them in a garment or quilt, or when fabric is already quilted and bleeds onto adjacent fabric, or simply to soak fabric before dyeing. Shipping & Returns. <P> Synthrapol is also commonly used as a surfactant to improve the penetration of water (and therefore dye) into the fiber, especially when dyeing wool. Other surfactants will also work. You can substitute one drop of liquid hand dishwashing detergent for this purpose. It is recommended to use Synthrapol when washing hand dyed fabrics before using them in a garment or quilt or when fabric is already quilted and bleeds onto adjacent fabric or simply to soak fabric before dyeing. Buy Procion MX Fiber Reactive Cold Water Dye from Blick Art Materials! <P> Retayne is a color fixative for commercially dyed cotton, linen, and rayon fabrics that bleed. Use in the washing machine or treat by hand washing with hot water. Always test fabric before washing it for the first time. Only one application is necessary.You can treat 24 yards with one 4 ounce bottle. Shipping & Returns. Retayne is a color fixative for commercially dyed cotton, linen, and rayon fabrics that bleed. Use in the washing machine or treat by hand washing with hot water. Always test. <P> Synthrapol®. Synthrapol is an industrial strength, pH neutral, liquid detergent used as a prewash and afterwash for dyed or painted fabrics and as a wetting agent for fabric dyes and paints. Synthrapol helps keep loose dye in suspension and is used to remove excess color and prevent backstaining. Directions: After dyeing or painting, rinse fabric in cold water and then wash for at least 10 min. <P> Synthrapol is a special detergent used in pre-scouring fibers before dyeing, and in washing out fiber reactive dyes after dyeing. It is also sometimes used as a surfactant or wetting agent to improve dye penetration. It is recommended to use Synthrapol when washing hand dyed fabrics before using them in a garment or quilt or when fabric is already quilted and bleeds onto adjacent fabric or simply to soak fabric before dyeing. Buy Procion MX Fiber Reactive Cold Water Dye from Blick Art Materials! <P> Synthrapol works best with HOT water, yes, HOT water, when washing out excess dye, particularly Fiber Reactive Dye. You are getting out the excess loose dye molecules that have not been chemically bonded to the fabric. This is a good thing! Prewashing in Synthrapol helps remove invisible lubricants, fingerprints, dirt, oil, silk worm gum and other impurities that can interfere with the dye and cause uneven dyeing. It is especially important for tub dyeing where you want an even consistant dye job.

perform covenant meaning
|
<P> An auxiliary covenant is one, which, not relating directly to the principal matter of the contract between the parties, yet relates to something connected with it; as, if A covenants with B, that C will perform his covenant to serve him for one year. <P> • COVENANT (noun). The noun COVENANT has 2 senses: 1. a signed written agreement between two or more parties (nations) to perform some action. 2. (Bible) an agreement between God and his people in which God makes certain promises and requires certain behavior from them in return. Familiarity information: COVENANT used as a noun is rare. <P> - 4th. To make a covenant it must, according to the definition above given, be by deed or under seal. No particular form of words is necessary to make a covenant, but any words which manifest the intention of the parties, in respect to the subject matter of the contract, are sufficient. <P> The word covenant, infrequently heard in conversation, is quite commonly used in legal, social (marriage), and religious and theological contexts. The Idea of Covenant. The term covenant is of Latin origin (con venire), meaning a coming together. It presupposes two or more parties who come together to make a contract, agreeing on promises, stipulations, privileges, and responsibilities. <P> Covenant. An agreement, contract, or written promise between two individuals that frequently constitutes a pledge to do or refrain from doing something. The individual making the promise or agreement is known as the covenantor, and the individual to whom such promise is made is called the covenantee. <P> The several kinds of covenants. They are, 1. Express or implied. An express covenant, or a covenant in fact, is one expressly agreed between the parties and inserted in the deed. The law does not require any particular form to create an express covenant. The formal word 'covenant' is therefore not indispensably requisite.

what is baking soda used for in food
|
<P> Baking Soda. Baking soda is pure sodium bicarbonate. When baking soda is combined with moisture and an acidic ingredient (e.g., yogurt, chocolate, buttermilk, honey), the resulting chemical reaction produces bubbles of carbon dioxide that expand under oven temperatures, causing baked goods to rise. Substituting in Recipes. You can substitute baking powder in place of baking soda (you'll need more baking powder and it may affect the taste), but you can't use baking soda when a recipe calls for baking powder. Baking soda by itself lacks the acidity to make a cake rise. <P> In its natural form, baking soda is known as nahcolite, which is part of the natural mineral natron. Natron, which contains large amounts of sodium bicarbonate, has been used since ancient times. For instance, the Egyptians used natron as a soap for cleansing purposes. Use baking soda to scrub your barbecue grill. Clean baby toys in a mixture of 4 tablespoons of baking soda and 1 quart of water. Baking soda can also be used as a fabric softener in your laundry, or to get your clothes whither and brighter (add one cup to your laundry load). <P> A leavening agent which reacts when combined with an acid such as buttermilk, yogurt or molasses producing carbon dioxide bubbles which cause a dough to rise. If such a thing as 'baking soda' does not exist in your country, look for it at the chemist's, where it's usually known as sodium bicarbonate. To test baking soda for freshness: Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda to 1/2 cup of hot water. The soda will actively bubble if it is fresh. Season: available year-round. <P> Baking soda is an alkaline compound that, when combined with an acid, will produce carbon dioxide gas. The small bubbles of carbon dioxide gas become trapped in batter, causing it to inflate, or rise. Common acids used to cause this reaction include vinegar, lemon juice, buttermilk, yogurt, and cream of tartar. The acid compound in baking powder is in the form of a salt, which means it will not react with the base until a liquid is added. Baking soda is good to use in recipes which include other acidic ingredients. <P> 1 Use baking soda to brush your pets’ teeth. 2 For instant relief from bug bites, sunburn and poison ivy, mix baking soda with a little water and apply it directly to the sore. 3 Pour in 1 cup baking soda followed by 1 cup hot vinegar to quickly unclog the kitchen drain. <P> Baking Soda. Hindi Name: Meetha Soda. It is a white crystalline chemical compound usually found in powdered form. This white powder is commonly used as a raising agent in baking. It is used in cakes and baking products. Also know as cooking soda or bicarbonate of soda. It combines with an acidic component to produce tiny bubbles which lightens the dough or batter. However, extra amounts can result in a collapsed cake with an unpleasant flavor. <P> Categories: Baking. Also known as bicarbonate of soda, baking soda is an alkali used as a leavener in baked goods. When combined with an acid ingredient such as buttermilk, yogurt or molasses, baking soda produces carbon dioxide gas bubbles, thereby causing a dough or batter to rise. At one time, baking soda was used in the cooking water of green vegetables to preserve their color. That practice was discontinued, however, when it was discovered that baking soda destroys the vitamin C content of vegetables. From The Food Lover's Companion, Fourth edition by Sharon Tyler Herbst and Ron Herbst. <P> Baking soda, also known as bicarbonate of soda or sodium bicarbonate, is most known for removing odors in the refrigerator and in your home. It is also known for use in baking, but is also a non-toxic compound that can be used as a replacement for hundreds of other less environmentally friendly harmful chemicals. Ad. <P> Bicarbonate of soda. Bicarbonate of soda, or baking soda, is an alkali which is used to raise soda breads and full-flavoured cakes such as gingerbread, fruit cake, chocolate cake and carrot cake. It needs an acid (as well as moisture) to activate it so is often combined with cream of tartar, yoghurt, buttermilk or milk. <P> Answer: Both baking soda and baking powder are leavening agents, which means they are added to baked goods before cooking to produce carbon dioxide and cause them to 'rise'. Baking powder contains baking soda, but the two substances are used under different conditions. Substituting in Recipes. You can substitute baking powder in place of baking soda (you'll need more baking powder and it may affect the taste), but you can't use baking soda when a recipe calls for baking powder. Baking soda by itself lacks the acidity to make a cake rise.

what is Legionnaires’ disease
|
<P> Legionnaires' disease is a common name for one of the several illnesses caused by Legionnaires' disease bacteria (LDB). Legionnaires' disease is an infection of the lungs and is a form of pneumonia. More than 43 species of Legionella have been identified and more than 20 linked with human diseases. <P> Legionnaires' disease, also known as legionellosis or Legion fever, is a form of atypical pneumonia caused by any type of Legionella bacteria. Over 90% of cases of Legionnaires' disease are caused by Legionella pneumophila. Other causative species include L. longbeachae, L. feeleii, L. micdadei, and L. anisa. <P> Legionnaires' disease is a type of pneumonia. It is caused by bacteria called Legionella pneumophila. The bacteria got its name in 1976, when a group of people attending an American Legion convention became infected. <P> Introduction. Legionellosis is a collective term for diseases caused by legionella bacteria including the most serious Legionnaires’ disease, as well as the similar but less serious conditions of Pontiac fever and Lochgoilhead fever. <P> What Is Legionnaires' Disease. Legionnaires’ disease, or Legionellosis, is a severe infection caused by Legionella species, primarily L. pneumophila. In fact, L. pneumophila is responsible for 90% of infections. The disease typically presents as pneumonia and symptoms may include a high fever, chills, cough, muscle aches, headaches, and diarrhea. About the Disease. Legionnaires' disease is a severe, often lethal, form of pneumonia. It's caused by the bacterium Legionella pneumophila found in both potable and nonpotable water systems. Each year, an estimated 10,000 to 18,000 people are infected with the Legionella bacteria in the United States <P> Legionnaires' disease, also called Legionellosis is a lung infection, a form of pneumonia which can be fatal, caused by the legionella bacterium. The name Legionnaires' disease emerged in 1976 - in July there was an outbreak of pneumonia among delegates at a convention of the American Legion in Philadelphia. As Legionnaires' disease signs and symptoms are often mild, it is likely that the real number of infections is considerably higher than the reported ones.

most important characteristic of prokaryotic cell
|
<P> The distinction between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is considered to be the most important distinction among groups of organisms. Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, such as the nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not. Differences in cellular structure of prokaryotes and eukaryotes include the presence of mitochondria and chloroplasts, the cell wall, and the structure of chromosomal DNA. <P> (iii) The genetic material is located on a single chromosome which consists of a circular double strand of DNA. (iv) The basic protein-his tones, which are one of the most important constituents of chromosomes of eukaryotic cells, are absent in prokaryotic chromosomes. (v) The absence of nucleolus and mitotic apparatus. <P> Prokaryotic Cells are cells that have to have organelles that are not surrounded by a membrane and do have ribosomes. Their DNA is in the shape of a circle. They have no … nucleus, the DNA is bunched up in the cytoplasm. The type of cells that are prokaryotic are bacteria and only bacteria cells. <P> By Saritha Pujari Cell. Advertisements: Some of the most important characteristics of prokaryotic cells are as follows: The prokaryotic (Gr., pro-primitive, karyon-nucleus) cells are the most primitive cells from morphological point of view. They occur in bacteria and blue green algae. <P> Prokaryotic cells have genetic material that is not contained in a nucleus; Eukaryotic cells contain a nucleus in which their genetic material is separated from the rest of th … e cell. Also, keep in mind that eukaryotic cells are known to have a nucleus while prokaryotic cells do not. <P> All prokaryotic cells contain large quantities of genetic material in the form of DNA and RNA. Because prokaryotic cells, by definition, do not have a nucleus, the single large circular strand of DNA containing most of the genes needed for cell growth, survival, and reproduction is found in the cytoplasm.

what side of the brain is the cerebellum
|
<P> Cerebellar Stroke. The cerebellum is the area of the brain that regulates all movements and maintains balance. It coordinates movements and speech muscles. Damage to the cerebellum can cause lack of balance or coordination on the same side of the body. It can also cause slurring of speech. <P> Cerebellum: In Latin, the word cerebellum means little brain. The cerebellum is the area of the hindbrain that controls motor movement coordination, balance, equilibrium and muscle tone. Like the cerebral cortex, the cerebellum is comprised of white matter and a thin, outer layer of densely folded gray matter. <P> The Cerebellum: The cerebellum, or little brain, is similar to the cerebrum in that it has two hemispheres and has a highly folded surface or cortex. This structure is associated with regulation and coordination of movement, posture, and balance. <P> The cerebellum is located behind the top part of the brain stem (where the spinal cord meets the brain) and is made of two hemispheres (halves). The cerebellum receives information from the sensory systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain and then regulates motor movements. <P> The right side of your cerebellum controls coordination on the right side of your body; the left side of your cerebellum controls coordination on the left. Diseases that damage the spinal cord and peripheral nerves that connect your cerebellum to your muscles also may cause ataxia. Ataxia causes include: 1 Head trauma. <P> In the back part of the brain is an area called the cerebellum, which controls balance and coordination. In the middle of the brain is the pituitary gland, which is small but very important. It makes hormones that control many different body functions.

There is a friend who is also having major digestion problems which causes additional odors. She needs a suggestion on how to get rid of the bad odor <P> Perspiration can be generated, bad body odor, sweating all the time, smelly armpits just after a shower, still got bad body odor, and so this could be a sign of an intestinal Candida problem, digestive Candida problem. So what happens on the inside of the body goes to the outside of the body. So it’s not uncommon to have like a, “whewwww,” a smell under the armpit or like a body odor. People with Candida often have gas. They have bloating. They have flatulence. They have bad bowel motions, so they’ve got a lot of fermentation going on in the gut. This fermentation creates heat and body odor as a consequence. <P> Just out of curiosity, have any one you candida-sufferers experienced stronger than normal body odor. Is this a result of candida? I was a frequent antibiotic user, which led to my candida infestation, and when I stopped the antibiotics, I started to get really strong body odor. I realize part of this is because my digestion was very poor due to candida and instead of digesting food it seemed to just be fermenting or rotting in my system. If you are eating wheat, dairy and chips, its. worse because you are feeding the candida! You should check out the page for candida. diets on this forum. My symptoms have been body odor, bad breath, weak legs, panic attacks when I try to sleep, bloating, constipation, fuzzy head. <P> The Symptoms of Candida. The term “Candida” is often associated with vaginal yeast infections (also called vaginal Thrush) complete with vaginal itching, odor and sometimes discharge. But Candida overgrowth is common to all bodies, male or female, young and old, and causes many other symptoms, too. We all have a balance of yeast in our bodies. A Candida yeast infection can be caused by. 1 A weakened immune system from prolonged illness or high stress. 2 Sexual Transmission from someone with a yeast infection if your body is weakened and “ripe” to catch it. 3 Antibiotics that kill the beneficial bacteria in the gut. 4 Lifestyle: lots of sugars and carbs. <P> Re: help,body odor due to candida!

gravel driveway cost per linear foot
|
<P> 1 Macadam typically lasts 6-10 years and provides the decorative and rustic appearance of a gravel driveway but with a firm base. 2 An asphalt driveway costs about $2 -$5 a square foot, or $1,200 -$3,000 for 12'x50' to $31,000 -$75,000 for a 12' lane a quarter mile long. <P> A typical two-car driveway is 16 feet wide and 38 feet long without curves or slope, for a total surface area of 610 square feet. It will typically cost $4.99 per square foot to be professionally supplied and paved with concrete. The DIY Material Cost is around $2.59 per square foot. <P> 1 A cubic yard of driveway-grade crushed gravel costs about $10 -$60 or more, depending on whether it is picked up by the customer at the gravel yard or delivered to the job site, and the size and type of gravel used. ( 2 A cubic yard of gravel is 3'x3'x3' and weighs roughly 1.2 to 1.7 tons or more). <P> 1 A gravel driveway starts at roughly $0.75 -$3 or more a square foot, or $300 -$1,000 for a 12'x25' single-car driveway. 2 Costs can double for a roadway-quality driveway. 3 Loose gravel will need replenishing periodically, but a correctly designed, installed and maintained gravel driveway can last 50-100 years or more. <P> 1 Also called tar and chip or oil and stone, macadam driveway can cost $1 -$3 or more a square foot on an existing driveway, or $600 -$1,800 for 12'x50'; and $2 -$4 or more a square foot for a completely new driveway with gravel base, or $1,200 -$2,400 for 12'x50'. <P> Then add $1 to $2.50 per square foot for a plain topcoat, about $3.50 for chip seal or $3 to $5 for a stamped or colored topcoat. If you're putting in a driveway where none existed, add $1 to $2.50 per square foot for an 8- to 10-in. gravel layer beneath the asphalt. <P> Cost. To get the cost of gravel, multiply the number of cubic feet you need by the cost per cubic foot. In the example, we need 150 cubic feet; if it costs $10 per cubic foot, then the gravel costs $1,500. <P> 1 (A cubic yard of gravel is 3'x3'x3' and weighs roughly 1.2 to 1.7 tons or more). 2 A 12'x25' single-car driveway 9 thick requires an estimated 10-14 tons, which can cost $100 -$850. 3 A 14'x100' driveway 6 thick requires about 26 tons of gravel, or $260 -$1,560 for just the stones. <P> For unique looks, you’ve got several options. You can choose a stone or brick perimeter for your driveway at an additional $2-$5 per linear foot involved. In other words, if your driveway is 50 feet long and you’re going to but stone or brick along each edge, that would come to 100 feet, or about 100 square feet.

<P> Furfural is an organic compound derived from a variety of agricultural byproducts, including corncobs, oat, wheat bran, and sawdust. The name furfural comes from the Latin word furfur, meaning bran, referring to its usual source. Furfural is a heterocyclic aldehyde, with the ring structure shown at right. Its chemical formula is O C 4 H 3 CHO. It is a colorless oily liquid with the odor of almonds, which quickly darkens when exposed to air. <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. Furfural is furan-2-carboxaldehyde, a heterocyclic aldehyde. A colorless, sweet-smelling, mobile liquid, C4H3OCHO, made from corncobs and used in the synthesis of furan, as a solvent for nitrocellulose, and as a fungicide and weed killer. <P> Furfural was first isolated in 1821 (published in 1832) by the German chemist Johann Wolfgang Doebereiner, döbereiner who produced a small sample as a byproduct of formic acid. Synthesis at the, time formic acid was formed by the distillation of dead, ants And'doebereiner döbereiner s ant bodies probably contained some. plant matter The name furfural comes from the Latin word furfur, meaning bran, referring to its usual source. Furfural is a heterocyclic aldehyde, with the ring structure shown at right. Its chemical formula is O C 4 H 3 CHO. It is a colorless oily liquid with the odor of almonds, which quickly darkens when exposed to air. <P> Furfural .. Furfural (FF) is an intermediate chemical used in the refining of lubricant oils and rosins. It is also used as herbicides, fungicides, soil fumigants, and as a building block in the production of Lycra® (PolyTHF). What is Ecoral™.

This yellow low-melting solid is highly water-soluble. The molecule consists of a furan ring, containing both aldehyde and alcohol functional groups. HMF has been identified in a wide variety of baked goods. HMF, which is derived from hexoses, is a potential carbon-neutral feedstock for fuels and chemicals. Acid conditions favour generation of HMF. HMF is a well known component of baked goods. Upon toasting bread, the amount increases from 14.8 (5 min.) to 2024.8 mg/kg (60 min). It is a good wine storage time−temperature marker, especially in sweet wines such as Madeira and those sweetened with grape concentrate arrope. <P> Furfural: Future Feedstock for Fuels and Chemicals. Furfural, a sister chemical to the increasingly popular hydroxymethylfurfural or HMF molecule, is regaining attention as a biobased alternative for the production of everything from antacids and fertilizers to plastics and paints. By Jessica Ebert. The primary thrust of the process is to produce ethanol but furfural is a key part of that because what makes our plant very profitable is that the furfural sells for $4.50 to $5 per gallon, Sams explains. <P> Production and reactions [edit]. Related to the production of furfural, HMF is produced from sugars. It arises via the dehydration of fructose. Treatment of fructose with acids followed by liquid-liquid extraction into organic solvents such as methyl isobutyl ketone. Acid conditions favour generation of HMF. HMF is a well known component of baked goods. Upon toasting bread, the amount increases from 14.8 (5 min.) to 2024.8 mg/kg (60 min).

<P> Two of these Volcanic Seven Summits, Kilimanjaro and Elbrus, are also the highest mountains on their continents. In order to consider two peaks as distinct volcanoes, this list requires that they have erupted from separate vents and each have 1000 feet (305 m) of prominence (reascent) above any intervening pass. <P> Highest Mountain Peaks. Most of the highest mountains in the world are located in Asia as part of the Himalaya and Karakoram ranges so let’s check out our list of the highest mountain peaks on each continent of the Earth. What is the highest mountain in North America? <P> As you would imagine, the highest point is found at the peak of the continent’s highest mountain. In mountaineering this is known as the Seven Summits, which was first postulated and achieved on April 30, 1985 by Richard Bass. At 4,884 metres (16,024 ft) above sea level, Puncak Jaya is the highest mountain in Indonesia, the highest on the island of New Guinea (which comprises the Indonesian West Papua region plus Papua New Guinea), the highest of Oceania (Australian continent), and the 5th highest mountain in political Southeast Asia. <P> Mount Everest: Highest Mountain in Asia. Mount Everest as seen from Everest Base Camp, Tibet. Mount Everest is the highest mountain on the Asian continent and the highest mountain in the world. Its summit is 29,035 feet (8,850 meters) above sea level. It is located on the border of Nepal and China. Image of Mount Everest copyright by iStockPhoto and Holger Mette. Mount McKinley (also known as Denali) is the highest mountain on the North American continent. Its summit is 20,237 feet (6,168 meters) above sea level.

polar bear definition

<P> The polar bear is classified as a vulnerable species, with eight of the nineteen polar bear subpopulations in decline. For decades, large scale hunting raised international concern for the future of the species but populations rebounded after controls and quotas began to take effect.

The polar bear is found in the Arctic Circle and adjacent land masses as far south as Newfoundland Island. Due to the absence of human development in its remote habitat, it retains more of its original range than any other extant carnivore. <P> The polar bear is classified as a vulnerable species, with eight of the nineteen polar bear subpopulations in decline.

The median price of mancozeb is $4.80 per pound of active ingredient and the approximate cost per labeled application (2.4 lb ai/A) is $11.52 per acre (19,54). The median price of copper hydroxide is $2.11 per pound of active ingredient and the approximate cost per labeled application (5 lb ai/A) is $10.55 per acre (19,54).

When asked how much they would pay per pound for squash, most chose $1.00 or less, and many said they would not pay as much for baby squash per pound than for medium squash.

Grocery store conventional red potato prices ranged from $0.60/lb to $1.00/lb. Only Wegmans had organic red potatoes available, and they were priced at $1.66/lb. <P> However, small zucchini types decreased in price per pound, because their size decreased slightly but the number sold for a dollar increased considerably. For comparison, most other vendors at the Saturday Farmers Market sold squash the size of my larger squash at 3 4 for $1.00, or at $0.75 per pound. I was the only vendor selling baby squash at either of the Farmers Markets. During peak season, 6 - 7 other produce vendors had squash for sale.

how soon should a calf nurse after birth
|
<P> Standing and getting its first meal is a critical step for the calf. This also requires cooperation from the cow. She must stand relatively quietly while the calf figures things out. For the best chance of survival, the calf should suckle its first meal of colostrum within two hours of birth. <P> The effects of exposure can be minimized if care is taken to ensure calves nurse soon after birth. In addition, during extremely cold or wet conditions calves may need shelter for the first 24-48 hours of life. Chilled calves should be brought in for warming and assisted in nursing if necessary. All calves should be checked to see if they have nursed within 2 to 4 hours of birth. Calves that have not nursed should be assisted or tube fed colostrum with a special calf feeder. Calves need 1 to 2 quarts of colostrum. <P> It is important that the calf nurse as soon as possible after birth to get full benefit from her antibodies. Absorbing Antibodies There are several types of antibodies present in the cow's colostrum. Their absorption rate and role in disease prevention varies depending on the class of antibody (IgG, IgM, IgA). A calf needs to have about five percent of his body weight soon after birth (1.5 quarts for a 60-pound calf, 2 quarts for an 80-pound calf, 2.5 quarts for a 100-pound calf), and the same amount again about 6 hours later. <P> Calves need to have there first drink of colostrum 2 to 4 hours after birth. All calves should be checked to see if they have nursed within 2 to 4 hours of birth. Calves that have not nursed should be assisted or tube fed colostrum with a special calf feeder. Calves need 1 to 2 quarts of colostrum. <P> Calves should stand and nurse within 2 hours of birth if everything is normal and weather is not severe. For maximum antibody exposure from the colostrum, calves need to nurse within four hours of birth. Cows should be checked to see if they have been nursed or calves should be assisted in nursing. <P> How much colostrum does a calf need? Generally a calf should receive 5 to 6 % of its body weight as colostrum within the first six hours of life, and another 5 to 6 % of its body weight when the calf is 12 hours old. <P> A newborn calf requires 6 L of colostrum within 12 hours of being born, preferably 4 L (1 gal.) immediately after birth (or within 4 hours) and 2 L (0.5 gal.) a few hours … after. Basically, newborn calves shouldn't be given milk right after birth. They need colostrum because it contains crucial antibodies and immunoglobins that are needed for its suppressed immune system. Colostrum is, really, a maternal transfer of antibodies from the dam to the calf. It is VERY important that the calf gets its colostrum after birth, otherwise its chances of surviving are very slim, even if the calf is 2 days old. But don't quit, get some electrolytes in it, and powdered colostrum (mixed with water of course.) Good luck! <P> It should be immediately, but with a c-section it has to wait until you are in the recovery room, around 45 minutes later, not 2 hours at all! Really, I was nursing my oldest within 45 minutes of his birth after c-section. Report Abuse. I had a vaginal birth and I nursed my daughter within 30 minutes of her birth. I don't know how long it'll take the doctors to complete your surgery after your baby is born, but I'm sure you'll be able to nurse right after they're done. <P> guide the teat into the mouth of the calf. This first meal is very important for the health of the calf and should be taken within five hours of birth. Figure 4. The calf s first feed of colostrum is essential within five hours of birth For the first couple of days the calf can stickle the cow as and when it wants. During this time the colostrum (which is the first milk) is not suitable for human consumption and should not be sold. But it is very important that within the first 24 hours after being born, that the calf gets at least three or four feeds of this milk. the colostrum (which is the first milk) is not suitable for human consumption and should not. be sold.

The statement must include the following information. Section 475(f) Election to use Mark-to-Market Accounting. Beginning in 1997 the IRS permitted active traders, who have qualified for trader tax status with the IRS and operate as a trading business, to elect a method of accounting called Mark-To-Market (MTM). <P> 1 See your tax advisor (or become a client here) to discuss the ramifications of this as it pertains to your unique situation, it is not as difficult as you may think! 2 If you missed making the IRS Code 475(f) mark-to-market election, but really needed to have it for 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 or 2005... 1 If you lost money trading during 2005 in excess of the normal $3,000 capital loss limitation your excess capital loss carryover could become locked on your Schedule D, while your future gains under a subsequently filed Mark-to-Market election would be fully taxed over on Form 4797. <P> Making the Mark to Market Election In order to make the mark to market election, a trader must enclose a statement of intent with the prior year's tax return (or extension request) by April 15. For example, if you intend to switch to the mark to market method for 2013, you will enclose an election statement with your 2012 tax return by April 15. If you miss the mark to market deadline, you can file for an extension of up to six months to make your mark to market election via a private letter ruling procedure under IRS Section 301.9100-1 (Extensions of Time to Make Elections). Warning: you may get charged by the IRS to do this. <P> There's a rule that says a new taxpayer (a taxpayer for which no federal income tax return was required for the preceding year) can make the mark-to-market election during the first two months and 15 days of the election year. The last day to make the mark-to-market election for the year 2011 is April 18, 2011 (the unextended due date for 2010 tax returns). <P> Part 1 of our explanation of how to make the mark-to-market election. Many elections under the Internal Revenue Code are as simple as putting a checkmark in the proper box. That isn't the case for the mark-to-market election. The last day to make the mark-to-market election for the year 2011 is April 18, 2011 (the unextended due date for 2010 tax returns). <P> In order to make the mark to market election, a trader must enclose a statement of intent with the prior year's tax return (or extension request) by April 15. For example, if you intend to switch to the mark to market method for 2011, you will enclose an election statement with your 2010 tax return by April 15. If you miss the mark to market deadline, you can file for an extension of up to six months to make your mark to market election via a private letter ruling procedure under IRS Section 301.9100-1 (Extensions of Time to Make Elections). Warning: you may get charged by the IRS to do this. <P> Most elections are due at the end of the year, when you file your return. This election has to be made by the due date — without extensions — for the previous year's tax return. The last day to make the mark-to-market election for the year 2011 is April 18, 2011 (the unextended due date for 2010 tax returns). <P> For instance, if you elect mark to market for the 2011 tax year, you'll fill out and send in Form 3115 with your 2011 tax return by the April 15, 2012 due date. If you have any open positions on January 1 of the year you make the election, you'll also need to calculate and report Section 481(a) adjustments on Form 3115. If you miss the mark to market deadline, you can file for an extension of up to six months to make your mark to market election via a private letter ruling procedure under IRS Section 301.9100-1 (Extensions of Time to Make Elections). Warning: you may get charged by the IRS to do this.

what temperature do snakes eggs become female
|
<P> There is another concern when it comes to collecting freshly laid eggs. In some species (most notably with snakes) the eggs are laid in a pile and will adhere to each other about 12 hours after laying. If the eggs are freshly laid when you encounter them, and they separate easily, then do so. Monitoring the Eggs. During incubation, you should regularly check not only the temperature in the incubator, but the condition of the eggs as well. Eggs that are too hot, cold, wet, or dry can all go bad at different stages of incubation, and you need to be aware if this starts to happen. <P> 1 However incubation times in some species can require months. 2 Typically colubrid snakes lay 8 to 14 days after the pre-lay shed, and pythons lay 18 to 26 days after the shed. 3 Offer a nesting site at the time of the pre-lay shed, to allow the snake to become accustomed to something new in her environment. Unlike some pythons, most snakes do not care for their eggs after they are laid. Once the eggs have hatched, maternal care is negligible or non-existent. There are a few exceptions, however. Some viper species will stay with their young until after they shed for the first time. <P> The eggs are affected by the temperature at which they are incubated during the middle one-third of embryonic development. This critical period of incubation is known as the thermosensitive period (TSP). <P> Egg-binding occurs when a female cannot pass the mature eggs formed in her reproductive system. In one survey it was found to occur in approximately 10% of the reptile population. It is reported more often in snakes and turtles, and less so in lizards. Egg-binding, also referred to as ' dystocia ,' 'egg retention,' or 'post-ovulatory stasis' is common in many reptile species, including iguanas, snakes, and turtles. In many cases it is preventable with good nutrition and husbandry. <P> Corn Snake Eggs in Damp Vermiculite. Incubate the eggs until they hatch. The incubation to hatch time varies depending on the incubation temperature. It's recommended that corn snake eggs be incubated at 78-84 degrees F (recommended temperature is 82 degrees F). If they are incubated at 82 degrees, the eggs will take about 58-62 days to hatch. The eggs can be incubated in a commercial incubator, but an incubator isn't necessarily needed. Egg Incubation. After the female corn snake has laid her eggs, gently remove them from her egg laying box. Keep them in the same orientation as they were laid. Place them in an incubation container with a lid. <P> In this case—which governs all snake species—males are the homogametic sex (ZZ) and females are the heterogametic sex (ZW). In temperature-dependent sex determination, however, it is the environmental temperature during a critical period of embryonic development that determines whether an egg develops as male or female. Therefore, in this species, there are both XX and XY males, but females are always XX. A slightly different example of this temperature-induced sex reversal is found in an Australian dragon lizard, which has the ZW system of sex chromosomes. <P> 1 Typically colubrid snakes lay 8 to 14 days after the pre-lay shed, and pythons lay 18 to 26 days after the shed. 2 Offer a nesting site at the time of the pre-lay shed, to allow the snake to become accustomed to something new in her environment. Unlike some pythons, most snakes do not care for their eggs after they are laid. Once the eggs have hatched, maternal care is negligible or non-existent. There are a few exceptions, however. Some viper species will stay with their young until after they shed for the first time. <P> 1 Most snake eggs should hatch in 45 to 70 days. 2 However incubation times in some species can require months. 3 Typically colubrid snakes lay 8 to 14 days after the pre-lay shed, and pythons lay 18 to 26 days after the shed. Unlike some pythons, most snakes do not care for their eggs after they are laid. Once the eggs have hatched, maternal care is negligible or non-existent. There are a few exceptions, however. Some viper species will stay with their young until after they shed for the first time. <P> Egg requirements fall mostly into two categories: temperature and humidity. And for most species of python eggs, the requirements are identical: a temperature of 90 degrees Fahrenheit combined with high humidity. Nearly every python egg has been hatched by the female that laid it. Female pythons are good mothers and have been programmed by millions of years of evolution to do one thing: make baby pythons! Female pythons of different species have varying control over both temperature and humidity. The female, however, only has the ability to raise the temperature of the eggs. She can’t lower it. If the ambient temperature is already set at 90 degrees, then she no longer has any control over temperature. The female can either conserve or release the moisture generated by egg incubation.

<P> Depending on the condition, an autoimmune disorder can affect a variety of organs, joints and muscles, or other bodily tissues. One tissue that’s commonly affected by autoimmune disorders is the skin. <P> 1 Many skin conditions itch, including eczema (dermatitis), psoriasis, scabies, lice, chickenpox and hives. 2 The itching usually affects specific areas and is accompanied by other signs, such as red, irritated skin or bumps and blisters. 3 Internal diseases. <P> This autoimmune disorder is primarily muscular in nature, but because dermatomyositis also affects the skin, it is sometimes categorized with skin-related autoimmune conditions. Dermatomyositis goes hand-in-hand with polymyositis, an autoimmune disease that causes muscle weakness, soreness, and stiffness. <P> Blisters may develop from diseases that cause your body to attack your own skin (autoimmune diseases), such as: 1 Pemphigus, an uncommon, sometimes fatal disease. 2 Blisters of varying sizes break out on the skin, the lining of the mouth, the vagina or penis, and other mucous membranes. <P> Autoimmune Diseases. Autoimmune diseases can affect almost any part of the body, including the heart, brain, nerves, muscles, skin, eyes, joints, lungs, kidneys, glands, the digestive tract, and blood vessels. The classic sign of an autoimmune disease is inflammation, which can cause redness, heat, pain, and swelling. <P> 1 Skin conditions and rashes. 2 Many skin conditions itch, including eczema (dermatitis), psoriasis, scabies, lice, chickenpox and hives. 3 The itching usually affects specific areas and is accompanied by other signs, such as red, irritated skin or bumps and blisters. 4 Internal diseases. <P> Many skin conditions that are common can cause itchy skin. The following can affect any area of skin on the body: 1 dermatitis: inflammation of the skin. 2 eczema: a chronic skin disorder that includes itchy, scaly rashes. 3 psoriasis: an autoimmune disease that causes skin redness and irritation, usually in the form of plaques. <P> A number of skin disorders can cause itching, which is also called pruritus. Eczema, a condition characterized by intense itching and red, flaky skin, is one of the most common causes of itchy skin. Dry skin and psoriasis -- a skin disorder that leads to red, scaly patches -- are also frequent causes of pruritus. <P> Skin Rashes. A rash is a general term for inflammation of the skin. There are many causes of a rash, including, but not limited to, allergic or irritant dermatitis, autoimmune disease, infections, medications, and rarely cancer

what age can i apply for learner permit
|
<P> Getting Your Learner's Permit. When you apply for a learner's permit, you will also complete the application process for your driver's license and pay the fees for both the permit and license. You will be required to pass a vision screening and the two-part knowledge exam. If you are between age 16 years, 3 months and age 18, your driver education certificate and a valid learner's permit allow you to drive without a licensed driver beside you-provided that you have held your learner's permit for nine months and the certificate is signed by a parent or legal guardian. <P> Possessing a learner's permit allows you to operate a motor vehicle when a licensed driver at least 21 years of age is seated beside you. The driver accompanying you may be 18 years of age if he or she is your legal guardian, brother, sister, half-brother, half-sister, step-brother or step-sister. If you are between age 16 years, 3 months and age 18, your driver education certificate and a valid learner's permit allow you to drive without a licensed driver beside you-provided that you have held your learner's permit for nine months and the certificate is signed by a parent or legal guardian. <P> 1 15 1/2 years old: Must take driver's education to get a learner's permit. 2 16 years old: Eligible for a provisional license (with completion of driver's education). 3 17 1/2 years old: Allowed to apply for a provisional permit without taking driver's education. Provisional Permit: Age 17 1/2. So you're at least 17 1/2 years old and you haven't had your 18th birthday yet. That means the process is a little easier for you than younger first-time drivers. You still need to get a Provisional Permit to drive, but you are no longer required to take a CA Driver's Ed course. <P> 1 16 years old: Eligible for a provisional license (with completion of driver's education). 2 17 1/2 years old: Allowed to apply for a provisional permit without taking driver's education. 3 18 years old and older: Allowed to apply for a driver's license without getting a learner's permit. Provisional Permit: Age 17 1/2. So you're at least 17 1/2 years old and you haven't had your 18th birthday yet. That means the process is a little easier for you than younger first-time drivers. You still need to get a Provisional Permit to drive, but you are no longer required to take a CA Driver's Ed course. <P> Age Requirements. 1 15 1/2 years old: Must take driver's education to get a learner's permit. 2 16 years old: Eligible for a provisional license (with completion of driver's education). 3 17 1/2 years old: Allowed to apply for a provisional permit without taking driver's education. Provisional Permit: Age 17 1/2. So you're at least 17 1/2 years old and you haven't had your 18th birthday yet. That means the process is a little easier for you than younger first-time drivers. You still need to get a Provisional Permit to drive, but you are no longer required to take a CA Driver's Ed course. <P> Texas Learners Provisional License. At age 16, you can finally graduate up to having a provisional license if you have displayed good driving behavior, completed 30 hours of behind-the-wheel instruction, had your permit for at least six months, and passed the driving test. <P> If you're between the ages of 15 1/2 years old and 17 1/2 years old, you'll apply for a provisional permit. The difference is that teens under 17 1/2 years old need to complete Driver's Ed, whereas older teens can obtain their learner's permit without Driver's Ed. Provisional Permit: Age 17 1/2. So you're at least 17 1/2 years old and you haven't had your 18th birthday yet. That means the process is a little easier for you than younger first-time drivers. You still need to get a Provisional Permit to drive, but you are no longer required to take a CA Driver's Ed course. <P> If you apply for a drivers permit when you are under 18 years of age, you will need to hold it for a certain period of time, usually between six to twelve months before you can take a drivers test and receive a driver license. Applying for a Permit-Under 18 Years of Age. Start by checking the legal permit age for your state as it can be anything from 14 to 16 years. You can find the legal permit age for your state in the driver license book or by calling the DMV help line. If you meet the age requirement, check if the graduated license law requires to you complete any classes before you can apply for a drivers permit <P> Anyone 18 years of age or older must obtain an adult learner s permit before obtaining a driver's license. An adult learner's permit is valid for two years. DRIVE ONLY APPLICANTS: If you would like to apply for a Drive Only License (for undocumented individuals), please follow these instructions.

genus species name for protists
|
<P> Other protists include pathogenic species such as the kinetoplastid Trypanosoma brucei, which causes sleeping sickness and species of the apicomplexan Plasmodium which cause malaria. Some protists, sometimes called ambiregnal protists, have been considered to be both protozoa and algae or fungi (e.g., slime molds and flagellated algae), and names for these have been published under either or both of the ICN and the ICZN. <P> Unlike some protists that reproduce only by fission, members of the genus Paramecium also reproduce by a process called conjugation, in which individuals of two different strains position themselves beside one another and exchange genetic material. The following are comments and other information relating to the protists. This compilation definitely is neither comprehensive or exhaustive. Thus, in addition to the following, you should study as much other material related to the subjects mentioned as you can get your hands on. <P> Some protists are significant parasites of animals (e.g., five species of the parasitic genus Plasmodium cause malaria in humans and many others cause similar diseases in other vertebrates), plants (the oomycete Phytophthora infestans causes late blight in potatoes) or even of other protists. Some protists, sometimes called ambiregnal protists, have been considered to be both protozoa and algae or fungi (e.g., slime molds and flagellated algae), and names for these have been published under either or both of the ICN and the ICZN. <P> Kingdom: Protista Fast FactPhylum: Pyrrophyta Species in the genus Euglena obtain energy autotrophically and heterotrophically.Class: Euglenoidea;Order: EuglenalesFamily: EuglenaceaeGenus: EuglenaSpecies: gracilis. <P> Protista is a kingdom of misfits. It includes a wide variety of microscopic life that doesn’t fall into any of the other kingdoms. There are plant-like protists, animal-like protists and even fungus-like protists. They are all eukaryotic, meaning that they have a distinct nucleus and complex organelles within their cells, such as mitochondria and Golgi bodies. More recent genetic work into the relationships between organisms has created overarching supergroups that connect parts of the protist kingdom to other life-forms. <P> Felis denotes the genus name for this species, while catus denotes the unique specific epithet for the species. The housecat is closely related to several other feline species such as the bobcat, Felis rufus, and the cougar, Felis concolor, so they are all placed in the same genus. For example, the striped mullet, Mugil cephalus, is found all over the world, and has a variety of common names (striped mullet, black mullet, sea mullet, flathead mullet, and gray mullet) which are used in different regions. Still another problem arises when a species is so obscure that it has no common name. <P> Euglena is actually the genus name as well as the common name for this organism. Finding the exact species is difficult, because the genus Euglena has dozens of species in it. … See the Related Links for more information about the genus Euglena as well as a list of the species in this genus. <P> Euglena are small organisms in the Protist Kingdom. Euglena gracilis is just one of many species of Euglena. They do not have common names like birds or trees, so we have to refer to them by their scientific name. Euglena are interesting because they are a sort of combination of plant and animal. They can make their own food like a plant, but they can also eat other things, like an animal. They can also swim and move. Some species have chemicals in them that make them red. Euglena gracilis is not one of those species. Euglena gracilis has a long hair-like thing that stretches from its body (see top picture). You need a very powerful microscope to see it. This is called a flagellum, and the euglena uses it to swim. <P> 1 Euglena is a typical member of the group (which numbers about 1600 species). 2 Because some members of the group (like Euglena) have chloroplasts, these organisms used to be called Euglenophytes, but in fact they are neither plants (phytes) nor animals (zoa). 1 <P> In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. E.G., Felis catus and F. silvestris are two species within the genus Felis. Felis is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by a taxonomist. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera.

what abiotic factors might affect a river ecosystem
|
<P> Abiotic factors, such as temperature, soil and light, can also influence an organisms success in an area. The tolerance range of an organism are the abiotic conditions in which an organism can survive. At both the high and low ends of the tolerance range an organism is stressed. <P> The above examples of abiotic factors involve physical characteristics of the freshwater environment, which are continued, with subsequent information studying how the chemical composition of the freshwater ecosystem also affects which organisms survive in the environment and how they cope in these conditions. There are many factors which can affect the intensity and length of time that the ecosystem is exposed to sunlight; 1 Aspect-The angle of incidence at which light strikes the surface of the water. 2 During the day when the sun is high in the sky, more light can be absorbed into the water due to the directness of the light. <P> In summary, an ecosystem is any community of living and non-living things that work together. Biotic factors are all of the living organisms within an ecosystem. These may be plants, animals, fungi, and any other living things. Abiotic factors are all of the non-living things in an ecosystem. Both biotic and abiotic factors are related to each other in an ecosystem, and if one factor is changed or removed, it can affect the entire ecosystem. <P> The ecosystem of a river is the river viewed as a system operating in its natural environment, and includes biotic (living) interactions amongst plants, animals and micro-organisms, as well as abiotic (nonliving) physical and chemical interactions. River ecosystems are prime examples of lotic ecosystems. Water flow is the key factor in lotic systems influencing their ecology. The strength of water flow can vary between systems, ranging from torrential rapids to slow backwaters that almost seem like lentic systems. The speed of the water flow can also vary within a system and is subject to chaotic turbulence. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. In biology and ecology, abiotic components or abiotic factors are non-living chemical and physical parts of the environment that affect living organisms and the functioning of ecosystems. Abiotic factors and phenomena associated with them underpin all biology. <P> Abiotic factors are essentially non-living components that effect the living organisms of the freshwater community. When an ecosystem is barren and unoccupied, new organisms colonising the environment rely on favourable environmental conditions in the area to allow them to successfully live and reproduce. These environmental factors are abiotic factors. There are many factors which can affect the intensity and length of time that the ecosystem is exposed to sunlight; 1 Aspect-The angle of incidence at which light strikes the surface of the water. 2 During the day when the sun is high in the sky, more light can be absorbed into the water due to the directness of the light. <P> Abiotic aspects. Abiotic means non-living.. The abiotic aspects of an ecosystem are its non-living chemical and physical characteristics. These factors affect the kinds of organisms that can inhabit a given ecosystem, and their abundance. Abiotic factors in an aquatic environment like the Hudson River include the temperature of the water, how much oxygen it contains, how acid or basic it is (pH), how fast or slowly it moves, and how much sunlight penetrates the surface. <P> Temperature, light and wind turbulence are other abiotic factors but they are independent of the size of the drainage system since they can affect a larger region. Biotic factors are the organisms living in the system and their interactions. Many interactions between the abiotic environment are a result of the organisms living processes. Snails can only live in pond where calcium leaches into the water from the bedrock so the abiotic limits where snails can live. Best Answer: The abiotic factors do include acidity, turbidity (clarity), nitrogen nutrient concentrations plus dissolved oxygen concentration. These are affected by the catchment or volume of the pond or lake. Size of the input flow, the type of bedrock impact the pH, that in turn alters the nutrient composition

what is primary beneficiary vs contingent beneficiary
|
<P> You select a primary beneficiary to receive a specified share of your account in the event of your death. A contingent beneficiary is an alternate person who receives the specified share of your account in the event that none of your primary beneficiaries survive you. <P> BREAKING DOWN 'Contingent Beneficiary'. Contingent and primary beneficiaries can be changed if the policy is a revocable one, such as with many individual policies. In the business world, most policies are irrevocable, as they are only meant to insure the person(s) originally specified as beneficiaries. <P> Beneficiaries are those who inherit from you, and they can do so in a number of ways. You might designate someone to receive your retirement account, investment account or life insurance proceeds. You can name a beneficiary in your will or trust to take some or all of your estate when you die. But there are two kinds of beneficiaries -- contingent and primary -- and if you name someone as a contingent beneficiary, he may never inherit anything from you at all. Your primary beneficiary is the individual you designate to receive an asset or gift from your estate at the time of your death. If he outlives you and you don’t change your estate plan to name someone else, he’s guaranteed to receive this inheritance. <P> Save. Life insurance beneficiaries receive the death benefit after the death of the insured. The primary beneficiary is first in line to receive the payout. The contingent beneficiary receives the benefit in the event that the primary beneficiary is no longer living when the insured dies. 1 Primary vs. Contingent Beneficiaries <P> Order of Inheritance. Naming primary and contingent beneficiaries establishes a pecking order for your bequests. Your primary beneficiary is first in line. Your contingent beneficiary inherits only if your primary beneficiary dies before you do, or if he decides he doesn't want the inheritance. If either of these events occurs, you've named a second person to receive the bequest. <P> DEFINITION of 'Primary Beneficiary'. A beneficiary in a will, trust or insurance policy that is first in line to receive named benefits. Primary beneficiaries are contrasted with contingent beneficiaries, who will only receive benefits if the primary beneficiary has died. There can be more than one primary beneficiary. Next Up. <P> For example, if you name your daughter as the primary beneficiary on your life insurance policy and your son as the contingent beneficiary, your daughter receives the entire $100,000 if she is alive when you die, and your son receives nothing. If your daughter dies before you, your son receives the entire $100,000. Beneficiaries do not have rights to your assets while you are still alive, so you are free to change your beneficiary designations at any time. If you marry or divorce, you may wish to review the beneficiary designations on your life insurance policies, retirement accounts, bank accounts and any other assets. <P> Primary vs. Contingent Beneficiaries. When you establish a beneficiary for your life insurance benefit, you will be asked for the names and social security numbers of the people you wish to receive the policy proceeds. The first name is the primary (main) beneficiary. The second name will be the contingent or secondary beneficiary. According to Life Insurance Hub, a primary beneficiary is the person or persons first in line to receive your life insurance proceeds when you die. Single applicants typically list a parent, sibling or both <P> For example, if you have a $100,000 life insurance policy, you can name your daughter as the sole primary beneficiary, meaning she gets the entire $100,000, or you could name your daughter and son both as primary beneficiaries, meaning they each receive $50,000. Beneficiaries do not have rights to your assets while you are still alive, so you are free to change your beneficiary designations at any time. If you marry or divorce, you may wish to review the beneficiary designations on your life insurance policies, retirement accounts, bank accounts and any other assets.

<P> Riven - $20 million-According to a 1997 BusinessWeek report, the Myst sequel cost $10 million to develop and an additional $10 million to market, suggesting a total spend of around $20 million on the followup to the then-bestselling PC game of all-time. E.T. - $23 million (licensing) - In Master of the Game a 1994 biography about the late Steve Ross, then-CEO of Atari's then-parent company Warner Communications Skip Paul, an Atari executive at the time, told author Connie Bruck the company spent $23 million to secure the license for the infamous bomb. <P> I asked this same question here, but was closed and told to ask it on this site instead. How much would it cost to develop a video game. I mean like a major PS3/360 video game. I know there really is no set price; but there has to be a pall bark, 100 grand, 10 mil, etc. I am asking how much the games cost to make, (studio cost, developer salaries, etc.).

Twisted Metal - $0.8 million-In an interview with IGN, David Jaffe claimed his first car combat game cost $800,000 to develop. Golden Axe: Beast Rider - $15 million-According to a Game Developer postmortem, Sega spent $15 million on development costs for Secret Level's HD Sega IP reboot. Guitar Hero: Aerosmith - $5 million (marketing) - A former RedOctane marketing associate said it cost $5 million to market this single-artist music title. <P> Wii games require about $5-10 million in the average case, including marketing costs. He asserts PS3 and X360 games need much more resources, from $20 million up to a staggering $50 million with sales of 1.3 to 1.5 million units to make money on them. Ubisoft boss Yves Guillemot has predicted game budgets will rise to an average of USD 60 million in the future. Games for Xbox 360 and PS3 cost between USD 20 million and USD 30 million to make. In 2002, as game software and hardware become more elaborate and the profit potential grows, the development budgets of hit software titles are swelling as well. It took between $5 to $10 million to develop a PS2 game versus $800,000 to $1.7 million for the original PlayStation. Namco Bandai Holdings President Takeo Takasu said rising development costs for next-generation games mean companies need to sell at least 500,000 copies in order to make a profit. <P> Four years ago, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot estimated that the average production budget for the generation of games following Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 would be $60 million.

<P> Paying for long-term care in Florida, whether it be a nursing home, assisted living facility, or home health care, is expensive. The average cost of a nursing home in Florida is $7,500 per month. Private health insurance policies generally don't pay for long-term care, and few people purchase long-term care insurance policies. For those covered by Medicare, long-term care services is very limited. <P> If you are or will be moving to a nursing home, you will be required to contribute most of your income to your care. You are allowed to keep a small amount of money, called a “personal needs allowance” (PNA). In 2014, Florida’s PNA for nursing home residents is $35 per month. <P> Cost. 1 There is no charge for Medicaid for children (KidCare Medicaid). 2 For other Florida KidCare programs, monthly premiums depend on your household’s size and income. 3 Most families pay $15 or $20 a month. <P> 1 There is no charge for Medicaid for children (KidCare Medicaid). 2 For other Florida KidCare programs, monthly premiums depend on your household’s size and income. 3 Most families pay $15 or $20 a month. 4 If you need to pay more, Florida KidCare will let you know. <P> 1 For other Florida KidCare programs, monthly premiums depend on your household’s size and income. 2 Most families pay $15 or $20 a month. 3 If you need to pay more, Florida KidCare will let you know. 4 Make checks or money orders payable to Florida KidCare. 5 Do not send cash. <P> The resource (asset) limit for a single person to qualify for Medicaid in Florida in 2014 is $2,000, and it is $3,000 for a married couple when both spouses want to qualify.

what are chelated minerals
|
<P> Promoters sometimes market chelated minerals as dietary supplements that are superior to other mineral supplements, claiming chelated minerals are used more easily by the body (more bioavailable) than non-chelated minerals. But there is no evidence to support this claim. CHELATED MINERALS Side Effects & Safety. There isn't enough information available to know if chelated minerals are safe. Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Not enough is known about the use of chelated minerals during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use. <P> “Chelated” minerals are among the mineral supplements touted for their improved absorption. The word, chelate (pronounced: key late) means to create a ring-like complex, or in loose terms ‘to grab and bond to’. Most clelated formulas use protein molecules, i.e. chains of amino acids. But according to a WebMD.com post, Find a Vitamin or Supplement: Chelated Minerals: “Promoters sometimes market chelated minerals as dietary supplements that are superior to other mineral supplements, claiming chelated minerals are used more easily by the body (more bioavailable) than non-chelated minerals. But there is no evidence to support this claim <P> About Chelated Trace Minerals. Trace minerals are, generally, uncommon minerals that practically all organisms need in minute quantities in order to trigger the production of enzymes and hormones for growth, reproduction and healthy maintenance of the animal or plant body. <P> CHELATED MINERALS Overview Information. Chelated minerals are minerals that have been combined chemically with amino acids to form “complexes.” You will see products labeled as chelated boron, chelated calcium, chelated chromium, etc. CHELATED MINERALS Side Effects & Safety. There isn't enough information available to know if chelated minerals are safe. Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Not enough is known about the use of chelated minerals during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use. <P> Now, not all minerals are difficult to absorb — or even need to be chelated. Yet chelation can improve the absorption of certain minerals by a notable amount. For example, chelated trace minerals possess an increased bioavailability of about 5 to 15 percent. Chelated minerals (on the other hand) are minerals that have been bonded to proteins to help make them easier to absorb. So, if your goal is to help your dog absorb the minerals in her food, you won’t get the results you’re looking for with an enzyme supplement. <P> Most mineral supplements occur as compounds, such as magnesium citrate or calcium carbonate -- and each mineral may appear in several different forms. Some dietary supplement manufacturers sell chelated minerals, which they claim are better absorbed by the body. Chelated basically means firmly attached, usually to an amino acid or other organic component so that the two do not disassociate in the digestive system. For some minerals, a chelated compound is better than some other forms. For some it is similar or worse and therefore a waste of money. All of the minerals are different and individual. Both calcium and magnesium are examples where chelated forms are very little if any better absorbed <P> What is Chelation? Chelation is the suspension of a mineral between two or more amino acids, or bonding to small proteins, peptides or amino acids. (Chela is Greek for claw .) Chelation substances can include things like amino acids, ascorbic acid and orotates, as well as hydrolyzed protein. What is all the fuss about chelated, colloidal and ionic trace minerals versus regular minerals? Inorganic (or metallic) minerals may only be absorbed up to 5% of their potential, whereas, minerals that are chelated typically improve absorption rates up to 45% of the mineral. <P> Mineral supplements provided as chelated minerals have dramatically improved absorptions over minerals supplements provided as simple mineral salts like zinc chloride. Heres why... Chelation is literally the protective enclosure of a mineral like zinc or iron within amino or other natural organic acids. The safety and performance chelated minerals is well-established fact. Minerals chelated within amino acids or fulvic acids (colloidal minerals) provide superior absorption and help protect you from unbalanced absorption that can occur with simple mineral salts. <P> More evidence is needed to rate the effectiveness of chelated minerals for these uses. 1 Bipolar disorder. 2 Use as a dietary mineral supplement. 3 Improving immune system function. 4 Building strong muscles and bones. 5 Other conditions.

<P> 1 Thymus. 2 The thymus gland is the main organ of the lymphatic system. 3 Its primary function is to promote the development of specific cells of the immune system called T-lymphocytes. 4 Once mature, these cells leave the thymus and are transported via blood vessels to the lymph nodes and spleen. The lymphatic system plays a vital role in the proper functioning of the body. One of the major roles of this organ system is to drain excess fluid surrounding tissues and organs and return it to the blood. Returning lymph to the blood helps to maintain normal blood volume and pressure. <P> 1 The thymus gland is the main organ of the lymphatic system. 2 Its primary function is to promote the development of specific cells of the immune system called T-lymphocytes. 3 Once mature, these cells leave the thymus and are transported via blood vessels to the lymph nodes and spleen.

how far can i cut back a boxwood
|
<P> http://www.youtube.com/ehowgarden. Heavy pruning can sometimes damage a boxwood if you're not careful. Find out how far back Japanese boxwoods can safely be pruned without damage with help from a certified horticulturist in this free video clip. <P> Rejuvenation pruning should be done in late spring. Prune one-third of the branches down by no more than 30 percent of their height. Use sharp pruners and make the cut just above a branch that is growing out or a growth bud that is facing out. Prune several of the oldest branches off all the way to the ground to reduce the width of the shrub. Unless the shrub is diseased, there is no need to disinfect the pruners. Spread about 1/3 cup of 10-10-10 fertilizer per 25 square feet of area on the soil around the boxwood. <P> Cut back dead, diseased or damaged branches from the shrub using sharp, sterilized pruning shears, or use a pruning saw if the wood is thick. Make a 45-degree cut to sever a section of the branch from the remaining wood, or snip off the entire branch if the damage is extensive and irreparable. Whether growing the dense, impenetrable shrubs as specimen plantings or growing them close together to form a natural screen, pruning is an essential part of care and maintenance that keeps the shape and size under control. Cut back your overgrown boxwood shrub in spring. <P> Instructions. Determine the size you want to cut the boxwood down to, so you know how much of the growth to remove. Ideally, prune the shrub so its base is wider than the top, so plenty of sunlight reaches the growth near the base. Locate tall, wayward, low-lying and crossing branches, along with those that are damaged or diseased. Whether growing the dense, impenetrable shrubs as specimen plantings or growing them close together to form a natural screen, pruning is an essential part of care and maintenance that keeps the shape and size under control. Cut back your overgrown boxwood shrub in spring. <P> How and When to Prune Boxwoods. As with all shrubs, you should be asking when the best time to trim boxwoods might be and when should you prune. Boxwoods can be trimmed at any time of year, but, for plant health, it’s best to avoid shearing in the late fall. <P> The common boxwood reaches 8 to 20 feet tall, but is generally 6 to 8 feet tall at maturity. You can safely remove 2 to 3 feet of height at one time on taller specimens when the length doesn't represent more than one-third of its height; if it does, make the cuts over several seasons. Renewing Boxwood. Though Viette's Beautiful Gardens in Virginia reports that vigorous boxwoods can survive after being cut to within 2 feet of the ground, renewal pruning is most often recommended for an overgrown boxwood. <P> Neglect regular pruning, though, and a wall of evergreen foliage soon looms over your garden. Severe pruning of boxwoods can have mixed results, but you may be able to safely cut the shrubs back by 2 to 3 feet depending on their size, their health and the time of year you prune. Renewing Boxwood. Though Viette's Beautiful Gardens in Virginia reports that vigorous boxwoods can survive after being cut to within 2 feet of the ground, renewal pruning is most often recommended for an overgrown boxwood. <P> If that old wood is too tall, you will have boxwoods-on-a-stick and not gain much visually for all your trouble. Barnsley Gardens, an old estate in North Georgia cut back their 200 year old boxwoods quite low with good success. Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer like 10-10-10 or 8-8-8 and make sure not to drop the ball on your watering as the boxwoods leaf out. <P> Cancel. Heavy pruning can sometimes damage a boxwood if you're not careful. Find out how far back Japanese boxwoods can safely be pruned without damage with help from a certified horticulturist in this free video clip. Part of the Video Series: Grow Guru. Boxwood's are going to sprout from pretty much anywhere along their stem. So you don't have to worry too much about how far back to cut it. You can use a hedge trimmer to do this if you have a big hedge. I prefer to cut one branch at a time. It's healthier for the plant and I have more control and less likely to make a bad mistake if I'm just cutting one branch at a time

what made contribution did theodore roosevelt make to the environmental movement as president
|
<P> As a boy, Theodore Roosevelt wanted to be a naturalist, a scientist who revels in and examines nature. As an adult, the president never forgot his childhood dream, and preserved vast regions of the U.S. for future generations of Americans. <P> No, that is not precise. Theodore Roosevelt was Eleanor's uncle. He gave his niece's hand to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, America's 32nd President. Franklin D. Roosevelt and Ele … anor Roosevelt were wed in the year of March 17, 1905. Theodore Roosevelt is the 26 president and the teddy bear is named after him.

During his presidency, Roosevelt made conservation a major part of his administration. As the new century began, the frontier was disappearing. Once common animals were now threatened. Many Americans, including Roosevelt, saw a need to preserve the nation's natural resources. 1 The movement for the conservation of wild life and the larger movement for the conservation of all our natural resources are essentially democratic in spirit, purpose, and method.. - 2 President Theodore Roosevelt. <P> Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President of the United States, was one of the most important and effective environmental leaders in American history. <P> The conservation movement, also known as nature conservation, is a political, environmental and a social movement that seeks to protect natural resources including animal, fungus, and plant species as well as their habitat for the future. <P> From the Image Gallery... President Theodore Roosevelt was the nation's first conservationist President. He preached the need to preserve woodlands and mountain ranges as places of refuge and retreat and wanted the United States to change from exploiting natural resources to carefully managing them. He was the first President whose election was based more on the individual than the political party. When people voted Republican in 1904, they were generally casting their vote for Roosevelt the man instead of for him as the standard-bearer of the Republican Party. <P> Theodore Roosevelt was the president of the US from 1901 to 1909. He was New York Assemblyman,, New York Governor, Vice President, President, and Assistant secretary of the … navy all before the age of 43. He mediated the Russo-Japanese War, helped with the Panama Canal, and won the Nobel Peace Prize for Peace. Theodore Roosevelt is the 26 president and the teddy bear is named after him.

Theodore, also known as Teddy and T.R., helped nurture a still young country into the magnificent nation it has become today. Roosevelt's contributions made America finally achieve its dream of equality of all persons. Also he contributed in the industrial area facing monopolies and worker strikes. An example, was when the miners set out a strike and caused a decreased amount of much needed coal. <P> When Theodore Roosevelt became president of the U.S. in 1901 America’s society and economy were changing rapidly, and with his energy and visionary leadership he set the maturing nation on the path to prosperous growth and diplomatic influence that would last throughout the 20th Century. Though he remains the youngest person ever to hold America’s highest office, Roosevelt was one of the best prepared to be president, entering the White House with a broad understanding of governmental and legislative processes and with executive leadership experience.

what part of the body does the aorta artery supply
|
<P> Location: The left coronary artery (left main coronary artery) emerges from the aorta through the ostia of the left aortic cusp, within the sinus of Valsalva. The plane of the semilunar valve is tilted so that the ostium of the left coronary artery is superior and posterior to the right coronary ostium. The left coronary artery travels from the aorta, and passes between the pulmonary trunk and the left atrial appendage. <P> The aorta (/eɪˈɔrtə/) is the main artery in the human body, originating from the left ventricle of the heart and extending down to the abdomen, where it splits into two smaller arteries (the common iliac arteries). The aorta distributes oxygenated blood to all parts of the body through the systemic circulation. <P> Glossary of Terms. Aorta. The human body has two main kinds of blood vessels, arteries and veins. The arteries, with only two exceptions, transport oxygen-rich blood from the heart and lungs to the rest of the body. The veins transport the blood that has been used by the body’s organs to the heart and lungs so that it can be re-oxygenated and pumped back to the rest of the body. The largest of the arteries in the human body is the aorta, bringing oxygenated blood to all parts of the body. The aorta begins at its connection to the left ventricle and distributes blood to <P> The heart receives its own supply of blood from the coronary arteries. Two major coronary arteries branch off from the aorta near the point where the aorta and the left ventricle meet. These arteries and their branches supply all parts of the heart muscle with blood. 1 Left Main Coronary Artery. <P> The abdominal aorta is the largest artery in the abdomen that provides blood to the organs and tissues of the abdomen, pelvis, and legs. 1 The lumbar artery is a parietal artery that splits from the abdominal aorta inferior to the gonadal artery. 2 It provides blood to the tissues and muscles of the abdominal wall. 3 The inferior mesenteric artery is a visceral artery that arises inferior to the lumbar artery. <P> Abdominal Aorta. The abdominal aorta is the largest artery in the abdomen that provides blood to the organs and tissues of the abdomen, pelvis, and legs. It descends from the thorax as a continuation of the thoracic aorta and branches several times to form the major arteries of the abdomen. 1 The lumbar artery is a parietal artery that splits from the abdominal aorta inferior to the gonadal artery. 2 It provides blood to the tissues and muscles of the abdominal wall. 3 The inferior mesenteric artery is a visceral artery that arises inferior to the lumbar artery. <P> The main artery of the body is called the aorta. It supplies blood to all parts of the body with the exception of the lungs. The aorta ascends from the heart and forms an arch, from which arise two subclavian arteries. Each subclavian has two main branches, the common carotid and the vertebral. <P> © 2013 WebMD, LLC. All rights reserved. The aorta is the largest artery in the body. The aorta begins at the top of the left ventricle, the heart's muscular pumping chamber. The heart pumps blood from the left ventricle into the aorta through the aortic valve

what structure is most prominent in cheek cell
|
<P> It is the nucleus. Because while observing the cheek cell the organelles are not clearly visible. Only nucleus can be seen properly. The function organelle of a cheek cell is the nucleus. The main function of a cheek cell is to reproduce. <P> The cheek cell, an example of an animal cell, generally has a circular, oval shape. Due to the fact that the cheek cell was not in groups or clumps, the arrangement of this type of cell is unknown. From previous labs, I remember that the cells were pushed together completely; each cell fitted beside another cell perfectly and so on. The animal cell structure is the most prominent in human cheek cells. The onion skin cell, an example of a plant cell, generally has a rigid, rectangular shape. The onion skin cells were positioned beside each other (length touching length, width touching width) and formed a checkered pattern. <P> Eukaryotic cells, while very similar in function to prokaryotic cells, are much larger and more complex. They are typically characterized by the presense of a prominent, more or less central nucleus. Viewed through a light microscope, this nucleus is by far the most striking visible feature of the cell. 1 Plant cells have cell walls in addition to plasma membranes, not instead of plasma membranes. 2 Plant cell walls are composed all or partially of a carbohydrate called. , 3 which is quite different from the peptidoglycan of prokaryotic cell walls. <P> All eukaryotic cells have within them a variety of different structures called organelles. Organelles are small and function much like organs function in a large organism. Some organelles are responsible for gathering cell energy, others for controlling cell activities. Although some animal cells have this organelle, most of them are small. However, in plant cells, vacuoles are often very large and often take up much of the space in the cell. They hold water, food, or waste for the cells. <P> Nucleus. The nucleus is one of the most important organelles in a cell. It is often the largest organelle in animal cells, but this is not always the case. Nuclei contain the genetic material called DNA that is responsible for controlling and directing all cell activities. Although some animal cells have this organelle, most of them are small. However, in plant cells, vacuoles are often very large and often take up much of the space in the cell. They hold water, food, or waste for the cells. <P> Ribosomes are the most numerous organelles in a standard cheek cell. They are found throughout the cell, and also in other organelles. I'm fairly certain it is the ribosome … as well. Ribosomes cover the surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the nuclear envelope. Many ribosomes float around in the cytosol, also. The function organelle of a cheek cell is the nucleus. The main function of a cheek cell is to reproduce. <P> There are also three kinds of structures found in plant cells and not in animal cells. 1 cells have. ; 2 animal cells do not. 3 As noted in the description of the prokaryotic cell wall, the cell must also have a plasma membrane. 4 Plant cells have cell walls in addition to plasma membranes, not instead of plasma membranes. 1 Plant cells have cell walls in addition to plasma membranes, not instead of plasma membranes. 2 Plant cell walls are composed all or partially of a carbohydrate called. , 3 which is quite different from the peptidoglycan of prokaryotic cell walls. <P> 1 Cheek cells do not move on their own, so you will not find two organelles that function for cell movement. 2 Name these organelles. 3 3. 4 The light microscope used in the lab is not powerful enough to view other organelles in the cheek cell. Biology cell structure function. 1 1. Cell Structure & Function. 2 2. 3 3. Definition of Cell A cell is the smallest unit that is capable of performing life functions. 4 4. Examples of Cells Amoeba Proteus Plant Stem Red Blood Cell Nerve Cell Bacteria. 5 5. 6 Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes. 7 6. <P> The Golgi apparatus (GA), also called Golgi body or Golgi complex and found universally in both plant and animal cells, is typically comprised of a series of five to eight cup-shaped, membrane-covered sacs called cisternae that look something like a stack of deflated balloons. Similarly, the number of Golgi bodies in a cell varies according to its function. Animal cells generally contain between ten and twenty Golgi stacks per cell, which are linked into a single complex by tubular connections between cisternae. This complex is usually located close to the cell nucleus. <P> The nucleus of the inside cheek cells serves the same purpose as the nucleus of every cell, storing the DNA that helps the rest of the cell perform its function. The funct … ion of the cheek cell itself, is to help reproduce the epithelial cells, which are cells that protect different cavities of the body. The onion cell is a plant cell and the human cheek cell is an animal cell. The onion cell would have cell wall, vacuole, and granules of starch or oils.

examples of disease genetics
|
<P> There are several types of genetic disorders. The way in which the disorder is inherited can help determine the risks it will have on a pregnancy and the risk of recurrence it will recur in future children. Risks for having a baby with a birth defect from a genetic abnormality may be increased when: The parents have another child with a genetic disorder. These are also known as Mendelian inheritance disorders, from the first genetic work of Gregor Mendel. In these disorders, a single gene is responsible for a defect or abnormality. Single gene disorders usually have greater risks of inheritance. <P> A genetic disorder is a type of disease that occurs when there is some kind of change in the natural makeup of a person’s DNA. This happens when there are different mutations, or damage, in a person’s genes or chromosome lineup. Genetic disorders are disorders concerning the DNA that is passed on from parents to their children. While this can be a frightening thing to think about, it is important to learn about the most common examples of genetic disordersso you can find out about treatment and preventive measures. <P> Genetic Disease Related Diseases & Conditions. Medical conditions are often related to other diseases and conditions. Our doctors have compiled a list of ailments related to the topic of Genetic Disease. These conditions may be a cause or symptom of Genetic Disease or be a condition for which you may be at increased risk. Anemia Anemia is the condition of having less than the normal number of red blood cells or less than the normal quantity of hemoglobin...learn more » <P> Genes and noncommunicable diseases. Most diseases involve many genes in complex interactions, in addition to environmental influences. An individual may not be born with a disease but may be at high risk of acquiring it. This is called as genetic predisposition or susceptibility. <P> The following is a list of genetic disorders and if known, type of mutation and the chromosome involved. The list of human genes includes genes not listed here, which also affect predisposition toward certain diseases. <P> Examples of genetic disorders: 1 Down Syndrome: Down syndrome occurs when there is an extra copy of a certain chromosome present. 2 Another cause for Down syndrome, although less likely, is a disease called Robertsonian translocation. Genetic disorders are disorders concerning the DNA that is passed on from parents to their children. While this can be a frightening thing to think about, it is important to learn about the most common examples of genetic disordersso you can find out about treatment and preventive measures. <P> When a genetic disorder is recessive, that means that two copies of the gene are necessary to have the trait or disorder. One is inherited from the mother, and one from th … e father. Disorders of this type include: cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and Tay-Sachs disease. 3 people found this useful. <P> Genetic and Non-Genetic Risk. Complex diseases do not have a single cause; it is the interaction between your genes, environment and lifestyle that ultimately cause complex diseases to occur. Examples of complex diseases are cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. <P> These disorders are known as monogenetic disorders (disorders of a single gene). Some examples of monogenetic disorders include: 1 cystic fibrosis, 2 sickle cell anemia, 3 Marfan syndrome, 4 Huntington's disease, and. 5 hemochromatosis. <P> Researchers are learning that nearly all conditions and diseases have a genetic component. Some disorders, such as sickle cell disease and cystic fibrosis, are caused by mutations in a single gene. The causes of many other disorders, however, are much more complex. Common medical problems such as heart disease, diabetes, and obesity do not have a single genetic cause—they are likely associated with the effects of multiple genes in combination with lifestyle and environmental factors. Conditions caused by many contributing factors are called complex or multifactorial disorders.

<P> Learn what foods to eat and what to avoid during pregnancy to ensure a healthy environment for your unborn baby! As a concerned parent, you want to do everything possible to ensure the well being and safety of your baby. <P> To stay safe, also avoid these foods during your pregnancy. Meats. 1 Cold cuts, deli meats, hot dogs, and other ready-to-eat meats. ( 2 You can safely eat these if they are heated to steaming and served hot.). 3 Pre-stuffed, fresh, turkey or chicken. 4 Steak tartare or any raw meat. 5 Rare cuts of meat and undercooked meats. <P> Raw and undercooked meat is another among foods to avoid during first trimester. Make sure that the meat is well cooked and consume while it is still hot. It would be good to avoid processed meat since pregnant women are more prone to food poisoning. <P> So, you must be aware of the kind of foods to avoid during early pregnancy. There are many kinds of food you must say goodbye to, for the health and well being of your unborn child. Here is a list <P> Congratulations, you're pregnant! Pregnancy is an exciting time, but it can also be stressful. Knowing that you are doing all you can to stay healthy during pregnancy and give your baby a healthy start in life will help you to have peace of mind. <P> Although caffeine does not come under the category of foods to avoid during early pregnancy, pregnant women are advised to limit their caffeine consumption. Caffeine can be found in tea, coffee, soft drinks, chocolate etc. <P> There are some foods you should avoid eating during pregnancy because they could cause food poisoning, and the possible presence of bacteria, chemicals or parasites in these foods could harm your unborn baby. <P> As your pregnancy progresses, you should avoid any activity that puts you at risk for falling or increases the chance of trauma to your abdomen.

what carries a nerve impulse toward the spinal cord
|
<P> Each spinal nerve is attached to the spinal cord by two roots: a dorsal or posterior sensory root and a ventral or anterior motor root. The fibers of the sensory root carry sensory impulses to the spinal cord—pain, temperature, touch and position sense (proprioception)—from tendons, joints and body surfaces. It can act as a never center and can work without the brain. The spinal cord carries sensory impulses to the brain and motor impulses from the brain. The spinal cord also controls stretch reflexes, bowel and bladder control. Thirty-one pairs of nerves exit from the spinal cord and innervate our body and limbs. <P> Report Abuse. Sensory nerves carry impulses toward the brain and most of them actually reach the brain (some sensory nerves will connect to other nerves first that will then carry the information on to the brain). As others have said this is an afferent system. Axons are NOT nerve cell bodies. Axons are the projections from the cell body that reach out to a target area...such as to another nerve to convey information or to a muscle to make it contract. Axons are part of most nerves, both efferent and afferent. Axons do carry impulses to the brain...when they are part of afferent neurons. <P> Neurons • Neurons –cells that transmit nerve impulses•3 Types of Neurons –Sensory neurons carry impulses from sense organs to the spinal cord and brain–Motor neurons carry impulses from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands–Interneurons connect sensory and motor neurons and carry impulses between them. <P> Role of the spinal nerves. The spinal nerves (shown here from the front) carry sensory nerve impulses towards the spinal cord and brain. They also carry motor nerve impulses from the brain to the rest of the body. Structure of the spinal cord. The spinal cord has a core of grey matter containing nerve cell bodies, dendrites, and supporting cells. Surrounding the grey matter is white matter containing columns of nerve fibres that carry signals to and from the brain along the length <P> Those that carry impulses in the opposite direction, away from the brain and other nerve centers to muscles, are called efferent neurons, motor neurons, or motoneurons. Another type, the interneuron, found in the brain and spinal cord, conducts impulses from afferent to efferent neurons. There are many types of neurons within the nervous system; some transmit afferent nerve impulses to the brain (e.g. those carrying information from the photoreceptors to the visual cortex), or to the spinal cord (e.g. those carrying information from the receptors in the skin to the spinal cord). <P> The sensory neurone carries the impulse from site of the stimulus to the central nervous system (the brain or spinal cord), where it synapses with an interneurone. The interneurone synapses with a motor neurone, which carries the nerve impulse out to an effector, such as a muscle, which responds by contracting. <P> 1. nerves. a. sensory (afferent)--carry nerve impulse from the body to the brain or spinal cord. b. interneurons (association)--lie in the brain or spinal cord. c. motor (efferent)--go from the brain or spinal cord to the muscle or gland. F. Tracts. 1. ascending tracts--conduct impulses from body parts and carry sensory information to the brain. 2. descending tracts--conduct motor impulses from the brain to muscles and glands. Give the following info concerning the spinal cord: 1 characteristics. 2 location. 3 composition. 4 functions. 5 nerves. 6 tracts. <P> A dermatome is a band or region of skin supplied by a single sensory nerve. Sensory nerves carry sensory impulses to the spinal cord—pain, temperature, touch and position sense (proprioception)—from tendons, joints and body surfaces. The face is supplied by the cranial nerves. It can act as a never center and can work without the brain. The spinal cord carries sensory impulses to the brain and motor impulses from the brain. The spinal cord also controls stretch reflexes, bowel and bladder control. Thirty-one pairs of nerves exit from the spinal cord and innervate our body and limbs. <P> Motor nerves control movement by carrying messages from the brain to the muscles. Sensory nerves carry messages from the sensory receptors in the body to the brain. In many places the motor nerves and sensory nerves run in pairs along side each other. There are 31 pairs of nerves that branch off the spinal cord. It can act as a never center and can work without the brain. The spinal cord carries sensory impulses to the brain and motor impulses from the brain. The spinal cord also controls stretch reflexes, bowel and bladder control. Thirty-one pairs of nerves exit from the spinal cord and innervate our body and limbs.

what is a vegetable shortening
|
<P> Shortening is any fat that is solid at room temperature and used to make crumbly pastry and other food products. Shortening is used in pastries that should not be elastic, such as cake. Although butter is solid at room temperature and is frequently used in making pastry, the term shortening seldom refers to butter, but is more closely related to margarine. Originally shortening was synonymous with lard, but with the invention of margarine by French chemist Hippolyte Mege-Mège mouries mouriès, in 1869 margarine also came to be included in. the term <P> As a solid fat, like butter, it can also be creamed with sugar to help leaven baked goods, although it does not give the flavor benefits of butter. Note that margarine is essentially an emulsion of vegetable shortening (about 80%) and water (about 20%) plus colors and flavorings, meant to imitate butter. Vegetable oil is converted into vegetable shortening by hydrogenating it, forcing hydrogen to bind on to the ends of the fatty acids. This is done by forcing hydrogen to bubble through the oil under pressure, heat, and in the presence of a catalyst. <P> Shortening is any type of solid fat used to prevent the formation of a gluten matrix in baked goods. Lard, hydrogenated (solidified) oils, and even butter can be used as shortening, although in the mainstream market shortening often refers solely to hydrogenated oils. Shortening refers to the process of a fat interfering with the formation of a gluten matrix in dough. This process is important for many baked goods, such as pie crusts, because gluten creates a gummy or chewy end product. <P> A solid fat made from vegetable oils, such as soybean and cottonseed oil. Although made from oil, shortening has been chemically transformed into a solid state through hydrogenation, a process that creates trans fatty acids and converts the mixture into a saturated fat, thereby destroying any polyunsaturate benefits. <P> Vegetable shortening is commonly known in the U.S. by the brand name Crisco. It's made by saturating the molecules of a liquid oil, commonly vegetable or canola oil, with extra hydrogen, which increases its melting point so that it's a solid at room temperature. Vegetable oil is converted into vegetable shortening by hydrogenating it, forcing hydrogen to bind on to the ends of the fatty acids. This is done by forcing hydrogen to bubble through the oil under pressure, heat, and in the presence of a catalyst. <P> Trans Fat. Vegetable shortening is a solid fat made from vegetable oils, so it is rich in fat. Of the 13 grams of total fat found in shortening, 3 grams comes from saturated fat. Vegetable shortening is a key ingredient in many recipes, as it provides the fat required to hold baked goods together and you can use it for frying. <P> A solid fat made from vegetable oils, such as soybean and cottonseed oil, which have been hydrogenated to create a solid. This process creates trans fatty acids which turns polyunsaturated fats into saturated fats. Vegetable shortening is virtually flavorless, and is used to make baked goods light and flaky. <P> Compared to vegetable oil, vegetable shortening is solid at room temperature, white in color, and much less prone to rancidity as it is a saturated fat. It has essentially an unlimited shelf life. It is also very neutral in flavor, so is often used to grease pans. Vegetable oil is converted into vegetable shortening by hydrogenating it, forcing hydrogen to bind on to the ends of the fatty acids. This is done by forcing hydrogen to bubble through the oil under pressure, heat, and in the presence of a catalyst. <P> Answers: Shortening, Vegetable-A solid fat made from vegetable oils, such as soybean and cotton seed oil.

<P> The lower airways or lower respiratory tract includes the portion of the larynx below the vocal cords, trachea, bronchi and bronchioles. The lungs can be included in the lower respiratory tract or as separate entity and include the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs, and alveoli. The lungs are the largest organs in the lower respiratory tract. The lungs are suspended within the pleural cavity of the thorax. The pleurae are two thin membranes, one cell layer thick, which surrounds the lungs. <P> Respiratory System.

The lower tract structures are found in the thorax or chest and include the trachea, bronchi, and lungs (= bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli). * Please note that many authorities include the larynx with the lower respiratory tract structures. <P> Functionally, the respiratory system is separated into a conducting zone and respiratory zone. The conducting zone consists of the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles. These structures form a continuous passageway for air to move in and out of the lungs. The respiratory zone is found deep inside the lungs and is made up of the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli. These thin-walled structures allow inhaled oxygen (O2) to diffuse into the lung capillaries in exchange for carbon dioxide (CO2).

what is a function
|
<P> In the function, y = 3x - 2, the variable y represents the function of whatever inputs appear on the other side of the equation. In other words, y is a function of the variable x in y = 3x - 2. Because of that, we sometimes see the function written in this form: f(x) = 3x - 2. <P> A function is a relation that uniquely associates members of one set with members of another set. More formally, a function from to is an object such that every is uniquely associated with an object. A function is therefore a many-to-one (or sometimes one-to-one) relation. The set of values at which a function is defined is called its domain, while the set of values that the function can produce is called its range. Here, the set is called the codomain of. <P> What is a Function? Definition. A function is a rule which relates the values of one variable quantity to the values of another variable quantity, and does so in such a way that the value of the second variable quantity is uniquely determined by (i.e. is a function of) the value of the first variable quantity. <P> what goes into the function is put inside parentheses () after the name of the function: So f(x) shows us the function is called f , and x goes in. And we usually see what a function does with the input: f(x) = x2 shows us that function f takes x and squares it. Example: with f(x) = x2 1 : an input of 4. <P> In mathematics, a function is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of permissible outputs with the property that each input is related to exactly one output. An example is the function that relates each real number x to its square x 2. The output of a function f corresponding to an input x is denoted by f (x) (read f of x ). In this example, if the input is −3, then the output is 9, and we may write f (−3) = 9. <P> In modern mathematics, a function is defined by its set of inputs, called the domain; a set containing the set of outputs, and possibly additional elements, as members, called its codomain; and the set of all input-output pairs, called its graph. <P> The input and output of a function can be expressed as an ordered pair, ordered so that the first element is the input (or tuple of inputs, if the function takes more than one input), and the second is the output. In the example above, f (x) = x 2, we have the ordered pair (−3, 9).

contract that has exculpatory clause example
|
<P> An example of an exculpatory clause is a dry cleaner's receipt that includes a disclaimer freeing him or her from any liability for damage to the item to be cleaned during the dry cleaning process. An exculpatory clause may be overruled by courts if found to be unreasonable in the circumstances. 2 people found this helpful. Due to the exculpatory clause in his contract, Rich was able to stipulate that he was not liable for any or all damage to his office furniture while he worked at Anger Management, Incorporated. <P> Exculpatory Clause. In general, an exculpatory clause (i.e., a limitation of liability clause) that eliminates a party’s liability for damages caused by a breach of contract is valid and enforceable. Exculpatory clauses are typically upheld if agreed to by businesses with equal bargaining power. A common type of exculpatory clause involves limiting liability on a loan to the collateral. <P> An exculpatory clause is part of an agreement which relieves one party from liability. It is a provision in a contract which is intended to protect one party from being sued for their wrongdoing or negligence. The general rule is that exculpatory clauses are enforceable if they are reasonable. They are not valid if they are unconscionable or unreasonable. Additionally, they cannot excuse liability from harm which is caused intentionally or recklessly. <P> For example, in a construction contract, it may be provided that the contractor will not be liable for damage caused by delays of third parties (subcontractors, for example). There is a trend in the law to invalidate an exculpatory clause if: 1 The parties have unequal bargaining power and the clause is unfair; Exculpatory clauses are typically upheld if agreed to by businesses with equal bargaining power. A common type of exculpatory clause involves limiting liability on a loan to the collateral. <P> An exculpatory clause is a clause of a contract in which one of the parties releases the other party from liability for their actions. An exculpatory clause may or may not be considered contrary to the public interest depending upon what field the party seeking the release of liability typically operates. A contractual clause which limits liability is not automatically grounds that the contract will be declared unenforceable during a contract dispute. If an exculpatory clause is present when there is a contract dispute regarding the lease of a commercial property, the exculpatory clause will usually be enforced. If the property is residential, the exculpatory clause in the contract dispute will usually be considered unenforceable by the courts. <P> While exculpatory clauses are typically upheld, they can be challenged and overturned in court. The court can determine that the clause is unreasonable if both parties in the contract do not have equal bargaining power or if the clause eliminates liability for negligence. For example, a venue may print an exculpatory clause on tickets it sells for a concert indicating that it is not responsible for personal injury caused by employees or others during the show. <P> 1 The parties have unequal bargaining power and the clause is unfair; 2 The clause eliminates liability for negligence, particularly if a negligent party is a public utility or the contract involves a fundamental good or service; or. 3 The exculpatory clause was obtained by fraud or other wrongful conduct. Exculpatory clauses are typically upheld if agreed to by businesses with equal bargaining power. A common type of exculpatory clause involves limiting liability on a loan to the collateral. <P> In contract law, an exculpatory clause relieves one party to the agreement of liability as a result of actions (or lack of actions) performed in the course of carrying out the terms of the contract. In a trust agreement, such a clause protects the trustee from liability resulting from any act performed in good faith under the trust agreement. In a lease, the exculpatory clause relieves the landlord of liability for personal injury to tenants or damage to tenants' property. <P> DEFINITION of 'Exculpatory Clause'. A contract provision that relieves one party of liability if damages are caused during the execution of the contract. The party that issues the exculpatory clause is typically the one seeking to be relieved of the potential liability. For example, a venue may print an exculpatory clause on tickets it sells for a concert indicating that it is not responsible for personal injury caused by employees or others during the show. Next Up <P> An exculpatory clause is language in an agreement which relieves one or both parties from liability under certain conditions. A common example is a parking lot ticket stub that states that the parking lot owner is not responsible for theft or damage to the vehicle. Exculpatory clauses are not automatically enforced by courts and can be voided if determined to be unreasonable or if parties to the contract did not have equal bargaining power.

what foods does DMAE in them
|
<P> DMAE has gotten attention over the last few years for improving mental clarity and alertness. It has also been promoted as an antiaging skin care nutrient. This growing interest in DMAE has many wondering how to get more of it naturally in their diet. Only a few foods contain it, however. Knowing which foods, and adding them to a well-balanced diet, can help you reap the benefits of this potentially valuable nutrient. <P> DMAE Benefits. DMAE or dimethylaminoethanol is a crucial substance that functions as a building block for choline, which allows the brain to manufacturer acetylcholine. In various studies, DMAE has been shown to reduce age-related decline in cognitive ability and memory. DMAE Dosage. According to researchs have shown that use of 200 mg to 500 mg of DMAE on a daily basis is effective. For Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder; 100 mg to 300 mg, taken orally once or twice a day. <P> DMAE Benefits and Food Sources. By superfoods Leave a Comment. DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol) is a naturally occurring nutrient found in high concentrations in fish, sardines and salmon in particular. Also, is a hormone metabolically produced in small amounts by the brain, testes and adrenal glands. DMAE is essential to the production of acetylcholine. DMAE Dosage. According to researchs have shown that use of 200 mg to 500 mg of DMAE on a daily basis is effective. For Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder; 100 mg to 300 mg, taken orally once or twice a day. <P> DMAE DMAE, or dimethylaminoethanol, is a compound that helps improve concentration and memory, and has recently been in the spotlight for its ability to reduce wrinkles, age spots, and other signs of aging. DMAE is found in oily fish, but small amounts of it are also produced in the body. However, the average person gets just enough DMAE to maintain rather than improve brain function, and it is impossible to get enough DMAE from dietary sources to treat mental disorders. <P> The Amount of DMAE in these Foods. There is not a tremendous amount of recent data available on the specific content of DMAE in each type of fish. However, a 1959 study published in “Nature” reported that there are approximately a few milligrams of DMAE per pound of seafood ingested.

why is erosion important
|
<P> Erosion is also a natural process that occurs without human meddling. Without it we wouldn't have the grand canyon or even top-soil (which is eroded rock over time). Check out answers.com to get more info. It is a very lengthy topic. Erosion is generally caused by stripping the land of trees and rooted plants that would hold the soil in place. If the top soil is eroded away, farmers can't grow crops. <P> There are many important agents of erosion, but water would be the largest factor. It falls as rain, then flows across the earth, and the oceans wash endlesly against the c … ontinents, freezes and thaws in the colder climates. All these contribute to the breakdown of rock and soil. + 9 others found this useful. because weathering is where the natural object is being decomposed into sediments or rock particles. Weathering is important part of erosion because weathering is the process … that produces change in the surface of the Earth. <P> A natural process affected by human activities, erosion causes soil or layers of soil to be moved or worn away. Erosion is a potential environmental issue because it usually washes away nutrient-rich topsoil from lands. This can prevent future generations of plants from growing in eroded areas. Because of this, erosion is considered one of the most influential natural forces in nature. Environmental Impact. Erosion can result in radical changes to ecosystems. Plant life may be unable to sustain itself or create new generations of plants in the eroded soil. If the soil that washes away contained hazardous, man-made chemicals, the chemicals enter into the water supply. <P> Erosion occurs mainly because of water. Increased amounts of water tend to overflow onto land. As the water increases, the soil becomes over-saturated with water. According to a Virginia Tech environmental professor, most of the soil particles end up flowing with the water sources, such as lakes, rivers or the ocean. Environmental Impact. Erosion can result in radical changes to ecosystems. Plant life may be unable to sustain itself or create new generations of plants in the eroded soil. If the soil that washes away contained hazardous, man-made chemicals, the chemicals enter into the water supply. <P> Water Erosion. Water is the most important erosional agent and erodes most commonly as running water in streams. However, water in all its forms is erosional. Raindrops (especially in dry environments) create splash erosion that moves tiny particles of soil. The process known as weathering breaks up rocks so that they can be carried away by the process known as erosion. Water, wind, ice, and waves are the agents of erosion that wear away at the surface of the Earth <P> In earth science, erosion is the action of exogenic processes (such as water flow or wind) which remove soil and rock from one location on the Earth's crust, then transport it to another location where it is deposited. Eroded sediment may be transported just a few millimetres, or for thousands of kilometres. Wind erosion is much more severe in arid areas and during times of drought. For example, in the Great Plains, it is estimated that soil loss due to wind erosion can be as much as 6100 times greater in drought years than in wet years. <P> Erosion is one of the things that is involved in all aspects of Earth's natural system. Geologically it is the most important aspect, weathering of rocks removes whatever rock is not left as soil (for plants) from the continents and brings it to the oceans where it creates a new deposit. Erosion is generally caused by stripping the land of trees and rooted plants that would hold the soil in place. If the top soil is eroded away, farmers can't grow crops. <P> Soil erosion begins with rainfall. We become so accustomed to the rain we don't realize how much force is in a single raindrop. But when a rain drop impacts the soil surface, it does so with enough force to dislodge and begin breaking the soil particles into much smaller pieces which are much easier to move. <P> Erosion is important because without it material wouldn't be able to move from one location to another. because weathering is where the natural object is being decomposed into sediments or rock particles. Weathering is important part of erosion because weathering is the process … that produces change in the surface of the Earth. <P> Erosion control is the practice of preventing or controlling wind or water erosion in agriculture, land development, coastal areas, river banks and construction. Effective erosion controls are important techniques in preventing water pollution, soil loss, wildlife habitat loss and human property loss.

what does syndesmosis mean
|
<P> The distal tibia and fibula are held tightly together by the syndesmosis membrane, and the anterior and posterior tibiofibular ligaments. A syndesmotic sprain or high ankle sprain is an injury to the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis with possible disruption of the distal tibiofibular ligaments and interosseous membrane. A high ankle sprain usually occurs in combination with medial ligament injuries and/or distal tibia/fibula fractures. A syndesmosis joint is a type of joint that is held together by dense fibrous tissue. There are several in the body. In the lower leg/ankle, the distal tibia/fibula joint is considered a syndesmosis joint because the tibia and fibula are held together by an interosseous membrane that extends the length of the bones. <P> Injuries to the ankle syndesmosis are commonly known as a high ankle sprain. Although the syndesmosis is a joint, in the literature the term syndesmotic injury is used to describe injury of the syndesmotic ligaments. It comes from the Greek σύν, syn (meaning with) and δεσμός, desmos (meaning a band). Diagnosis of syndesmosis injuries by physical examination is often straightforward. Physical examination findings that are often positive include the squeeze test and the external rotation test. Patients with high-grade syndesmosis injuries often cannot perform a single-leg heel raise. <P> A syndesmosis is a type of articulation, or joint, in which two adjacent bones are joined by an interosseous membrane. The syndesmosis screw is a metal screw designed to replace the syndesmosis of a human, generally short term. When there is a break in a bone causing issues with the syndesmosis a doctor may use this screw to hold the parts together while the bone heals. <P> syndesmosis. [sin′desmō′sis] pl. syndesmoses. Etymology: Gk, syndesmos, ligament. a fibrous union in which two bones are connected by interosseous ligaments, such as the anterior and the posterior ligaments in the radioulnar and tibiofibular articulations. <P> Syndesmosis. A syndesmosis is slightly movable articulation where the contiguous bony surfaces are united by an interosseous ligament, as in the inferior tibiofibular articulation. It comes from the Greek σύν, syn and δεσμός, desmos. Wiktionary (0.00 / 0 votes) Rate this definition: syndesmosis (Noun). A slightly movable articulation or joint where the contiguous bony surfaces are united by an interosseous ligament. <P> A syndesmosis is a slightly movable fibrous joint in which bones such as the tibia and fibula are joined together by connective tissue. Examples include the distal tibiofibular joint as well as the radioulnar joint. Diagnosis of syndesmosis injuries by physical examination is often straightforward. Physical examination findings that are often positive include the squeeze test and the external rotation test.

what is vasopressin
|
<P> Be the first to review this Drug. Vasopressin is a man-made form of a hormone called anti-diuretic hormone that is normally secreted by the pituitary gland. Vasopressin acts on the kidneys and blood vessels. Vasopressin also raises blood pressure by narrowing blood vessels. Vasopressin is used to treat diabetes insipidus, which is caused by a lack of this naturally occurring pituitary hormone in the body. Vasopressin is also used to treat or prevent certain conditions of the stomach after surgery or during abdominal x-rays. <P> Vasopressin: A relatively small (peptide) molecule that is released by the pituitary gland at the base of the brain after being made nearby (in the hypothalamus). Vasopressin has an antidiuretic action that prevents the production of dilute urine (and so is antidiuretic). <P> Vasopressin may affect parenting behaviors. A huge influx of vasopressin into the body can cause blood pressure to spike. In rats, vasopressin has been shown to have considerable impact on sexual, mating, and parenting behaviors. Vasopressin is a hormone formed in the hypothalmus and secreted by the pituitary gland. Some studies have shown that a correlation exists between high levels of vasopressin and happiness in monogamous relationships. Vasopressin is used to control water retention through reduction of urine output. Vasopressin is a hormone formed in the hypothalmus and secreted by the pituitary gland in mammals. <P> Vasopressin is a man-made form of a hormone called anti-diuretic hormone that is normally secreted by the pituitary gland. In the body, vasopressin acts on the kidneys and blood vessels. <P> Vasopressin, also known as arginine vasopressin (AVP), antidiuretic hormone (ADH), or argipressin, is a neurohypophysial hormone found in most mammals. Its two primary functions are to retain water in the body and to constrict blood vessels. Vasopressin regulates the body's retention of water by acting to increase water reabsorption in the kidney's collecting ducts, the tubules which receive the very dilute urine produced by the functional unit of the kidney, the nephrons. <P> Medical Definition of VASOPRESSIN. : a polypeptide hormone that is secreted together with oxytocin by the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland, is also obtained synthetically, and increases blood pressure and exerts an antidiuretic effect—called also antidiuretic hormone, beta-hypophamine; see arginine vasopressin, lysine vasopressin, pitressin. Definition of VASOPRESSIN. : a polypeptide hormone secreted by the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland or obtained synthetically that increases blood pressure and decreases urine flow —called also antidiuretic hormone. ADVERTISEMENT. from Vasopressin, a trademark. <P> Vasopressin is a peptide hormone that increases water permeability of the kidney's collecting duct and distal convoluted tubule by inducing translocation of aquaporin-CD water channels in the plasma membrane of collecting duct cells. Vasopressin regulates the body's retention of water by acting to increase water reabsorption in the kidney's collecting ducts, the tubules which receive the very dilute urine produced by the functional unit of the kidney, the nephrons.

how long does a cheque take to clear in barclays bank
|
<P> When you pay a cheque into your account it has to be sent to the drawer's bank for payment. That bank will decide if it'll honour the cheque. It may not honour it if, for example, the person who gave you the cheque hasn't enough money in their account. This process is known as the central cheque clearing cycle. If you pay in cash or cheques at another bank to your Barclays account (e.g. on a Monday), the timetable starts from the day that the credit is in your account. Ordinarily, and in this example, this will be on Wednesday. In these cases, the funds are available to withdraw on the following Monday. <P> However, Bank holidays that are only observed in Scotland do count as working days. For cheques deposited in Northern Ireland, bank holidays only observed there don’t count as working days. Post offices If you pay a cheque at a post office to your Barclays account, it’ll take 2 working days longer to process them. If you’re sure a cheque won't be returned unpaid, you may be able to access some of the money on the day it's paid into your account using our Instant Access service, Please check with us as to whether you qualify for this service and what limit applies. <P> Report Abuse. It depends on a lot of things, but typically if the check is a local check, then it should clear the first time within 6 days, 9 if it is out of state; however, since banks will try to clear checks twice before they return them as NSF, it can take up to 3 weeks. moonman · 8 years ago. Thumbs up. 0. <P> The worst is the Government-run bank, National Savings, which takes two weeks to clear a cheque into its ordinary savings account. To add insult to injury, interest is payable only on the first day of the month after you have paid in the cheque. So you could wait more than four weeks for interest to kick in. But both refrain from paying interest on savings accounts for a total of five days, up to two days longer than Abbey does on its current accounts. When you pay a cheque into a building society savings account it can take up to 12 days to clear. <P> The 'normal' time for one bank to clear another bank's cheque is three working days. The following table shows the day of deposit, when it would normally clear and the del … ay if there's a bank holiday... Just to clarify, there is a difference between a check that bounces and a check that doesn't clear.. However, they are often related. A check that bounces means that the … bank of the person who wrote the check refuse to transfer the funds to the person attempting to cash or deposit the check. <P> Paying in cash or cheques at another bank. If you pay in cash or cheques at another bank to your Barclays account (e.g. on a Monday), the timetable starts from the day that the credit is in your account. Ordinarily, and in this example, this will be on Wednesday. In these cases, the funds are available to withdraw on the following Monday. <P> The money will be available to you immediately, unless you’ve paid the cheque in between 2am and 3am (when it’ll be available from 3am). If the cheque bounces, we’ll deduct the value of the cheque from your account within 2 working days of when you paid it in, even if you’ve withdrawn the money in the meantime. If you receive a Barclays cheque (£500 or less), we’d like you to pay in this cheque using the Barclays Mobile Banking app. We’ll contact you so you can provide us with feedback that will shape the service when it becomes available to other customers. <P> Paying in your cheque. When you are given a cheque as payment you'll have to visit your local bank to pay it in. Many banks have paying-in machines nowadays that will electronically read the data of your cheque and hold it for processing. Otherwise, the more old-fashioned visit to the bank teller is still an option. <P> How it works. WHEN you pay a cheque into your account, it will take three days to switch between the cheque writer's bank and yours-unless you and the cheque writer bank at the same branch. It works like this: Day One: The cheque is sent to your bank's clearing centre. But both refrain from paying interest on savings accounts for a total of five days, up to two days longer than Abbey does on its current accounts. When you pay a cheque into a building society savings account it can take up to 12 days to clear. <P> Depending on where the cheque is paid in and at what time of day, this timing may be rejigged. For example, Barclays says if you pay in cash or cheques at the Post Office to your Barclays account, it takes two working days longer to process than if you did it at a Barclays branch. On April 26 I paid a cheque into my current account for £13,000, and on the same day wrote two cheques for a total of £11,000. Unfortunately, the two cheques were presented on May 1, quicker than I expected, whereas the funds represented in them took until May 2 to clear.

why is a functional behavior assessment performed
|
<P> What is a Functional Behavioral Assessment? The term Functional Behavioral Assessment comes from what is called a Functional Assessment or Functional Analysis in the field of applied behavior analysis. This is the process of determining the cause (or function) of behavior before developing an intervention. Unfortunately, IDEA does not provide specific guidelines regarding the conduct of a functional behavioral assessment. Each school district is left to its own devices when interpreting the guidelines and may opt for lower quality standards. Below are my comments on conducting a functional behavioral assessment (FBA). <P> Introduction Functional behavioral assessment (FBA) is a variation on procedures originally developed to ascertain the purpose or reason for behaviors displayed by individuals with severe cognitive or communication disabilities (e.g., individuals with mental retardation or autism). Functional behavior assessment is based upon the following assumptions: -challenging behaviors do not occur in a vacuum; there is a reason for their occurrence. -behaviors occur in response to an identifiable stimuli (event). -behaviors are governed (weakened or strengthened) by the consequences that follow them. <P> A functional behavioral assessment looks beyond the behavior itself. The focus when conducting a functional behavioral assessment is on identifying significant, pupil-specific social, affective, cognitive, and/or environmental factors associated with the occurrence (and non-occurrence) of specific behaviors. <P> Although a Functional Behavioral Assessment is not required until the student has been removed from school for specific circumstances, best practice is to perform such an assessment for any student with disabilities who has problem behavior. During disciplinary removals, as appropriate, or when the behavior is a manifestation of the disability, the IEP team must conduct a functional behavioral assessment and implement a behavior intervention plan for the child. <P> Functional assessment as an approach to discipline. Functional assessment is sometimes called functional behavioral assessment (FBA), for example, in IDEA. But this term is redundant because functional assessment always focuses on a child’s behavior. <P> What is a Functional Behavior Assessment? A Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) is a process that identifies specific target behavior, the purpose of the behavior, and what factors maintain the behavior that is interfering with the student’s educational progress. SP0009, page of 4 The Direct FBA Process Rev. 7/06 The Direct FBA is a comprehensive assessment process that is appropriate when the target behavior is severe in duration, frequency, and intensity and/or is complex and deeply ingrained in the student’s behavior patterns. <P> A comprehensive FBA process is the foundation on which a behavior intervention plan (BIP) is created. Though the IDEA advises a functional behavioral analysis approach in determining the “why” behind a student’s behavior, it does not give specific guidance on techniques or assessment strategies. The Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA) Data Record Form is a comprehensive data collection and synthesis. tool designed to assist the professionals in determining what function a specific behavior serves for a student. <P> Functional Assessment vs. Comprehensive Evaluation. A functional assessment has a narrower focus than a comprehensive evaluation. It focuses on the why, how, where, when and what of your child’s behavior. A comprehensive evaluation is a process that’s used to see if your child is eligible for special education services. It looks at all aspects of your child’s learning. <P> Functional behavioral assessment is generally considered to be a problem-solving process for addressing student problem behavior. It relies on a variety of techniques and strategies to identify the purposes of specific behavior and to help IEP teams select interventions to directly address the problem behavior. The focus when conducting a functional behavioral assessment is on identifying significant, pupil-specific social, affective, cognitive, and/or environmental factors associated with the occurrence (and non-occurrence) of specific behaviors.

Make sure you also learn some programming--maybe C, LISP, Perl, or Java. And spend some time with databases such as SQL. <P> (THIS IS WRONG). The person asking the question was asking how much and ETHICAL hacker gets paid. There are two types of hackers, black hat hackers, and the ethical hackers. Black hats hack personal backing information and stuff like that for their own profit. Ethical hackers are paid by a company to hack into their own company to test for security flaws. Overtime is an added half, so that would make it $20 an hour if $16 were the base pay (which may vary from one country to another). Hazard pay adds another $4 per hour (25 percent) for EACH type of hazard. For example: Working on steep terrain. Working on an uncontrolled fire. <P> Therefore, potential employees must be highly skilled to be able to secure such a position, and face a challenging set of selection criteria. RECOMMENDED: Ethical Hacking Training by InfoSec Institute. Remuneration. The average payout to a Certified Ethical Hacker is $71,331 per annum. The salary ranges from $24,760 to $111,502, with a bonus payout between $0.00 and $17,500. Thus the total salary is approximately between $24,760 – $132,322. 1.

In a filter binding assay, the filters are used to trap cell membranes by sucking the medium through them. <P> A radioligand is a radioactive biochemical substance (in particular, a ligand) that is used for diagnosis or for research-oriented study of the receptor systems of the body. In a neuroimaging application the radioligand is injected into the pertinent tissue, or infused into the bloodstream. It binds to its receptor. When the radioactive isotope in the ligand decays it can be measured by positron emission tomography (PET) or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). In in vivo systems it is often used to quantify the binding of a test molecule to the binding site of radioligand. The higher the affinity of the molecule the more radioligand is displaced from the binding site and the increasing radioactive decay can be measured by scintillography. This assay is commonly used to calculate binding constant of molecules to receptors <P> As such, ligand binding assays are a superset of radiobinding assays, which are the conceptual inverse of radioimmunoassays (RIA). Some newer types are called mix-and-measure assays because they do not require separation of bound ligands. Ligand binding assays are used primarily in pharmacology for various demands. Filter assays are a solid phase ligand binding assay that use filters to measure the affinity between two molecules. In a filter binding assay, the filters are used to trap cell membranes by sucking the medium through them. <P> For example, radioligand binding assays can provide information on whether the test drug is binding to the endogenous ligand binding site or is instead acting on another allosterically coupled binding site, such as a blocker of the receptor-coupled ion channel. Alternatively, the receptor density (Bmax) and Kd in the tissue can be obtained by using a saturation radioligand binding assay in which receptor binding is determined in the presence of increasing concentrations of the radioligand alone. <P> Three types of assay are described. In saturation experiments, tissue sections, cultured cells, or homogenates are incubated with an increasing concentration of a radiolabeled ligand, which can be a labeled analog of a naturally occurring transmitter, hormone, or synthetic drug. The affinity and selectivity of an unlabeled ligand to compete for the binding of a fixed concentration of a radiolabeled ligand to a receptor are determined using a competition binding assay. Kinetic assays measure the rate of association to or dissociation from a receptor from which a kinetic K (D) may be derived.

The innermost part of the epidermis, this is made up of a single line of keratinocytes held together and to the underlying dermis by desmosomes, a sort of press stud structure. Each keratinocyte divides to produce two identical daughter cells. Merkel cells (6-10% of the cells in the epidermis), situated between the keratinocytes in the renewal layer, remain in contact with a nerve ending. They can be isolated or grouped together in clusters called Merkel corpuscles. <P> Almost all the cells in the epidermis are known as keratinocytes, which just means they all produce what is called keratin. Split and merge into it. Answer by Peakay Tea. Confidence votes 50.8K. Almost all the cells in the epidermis are known as keratinocytes, which just means they all produce what is called keratin. There are no blood vessels, you have to get deeper into the dermis. <P> In humans and other mammals, the skin has three parts-the epidermis, the dermis and the subcutis (or hypodermis). The epidermis forms the surface of the skin. It is made up of several layers of cells called keratinocytes. The dermis lies underneath the epidermis and contains skin appendages: hair follicles, sebaceous (oil) glands and sweat glands. The subcutis contains fat cells and some sweat glands. <P> Epidermis: The upper or outer layer of the two main layers of cells that make up the skin. The epidermis is mostly made up of flat, scale-like cells called squamous cells. Under the squamous cells are round cells called basal cells. The deepest part of the epidermis also contains melanocytes. These cells produce melanin, which gives the skin its color. The other main layer of the skin is the dermis, the inner layer of skin, that contains blood and lymph vessels, hair follicles, and glands. These glands produce sweat, which helps regulate body temperature, and sebum, an oily substance that helps keep the skin from drying out. <P> Keratinocytes from the stratum corneum are eventually shed from the surface (desquamation). The epidermis contains no blood vessels, and cells in the deepest layers are nourished by diffusion from blood capillaries extending to the upper layers of the dermis.
