841899 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histiocytosis | Histiocytosis | Histiocytosis is the name for a medical condition, when a human (or other animal) has too many hystiocytes. Hystiocites are specialized macrophages. Hystiocitosis is also used as a name for a number of diseases, which have this symptom. The diseases are relatively rare, they affect about one to two newborns per million. The WHO has classified the diseases in three groups. There are different forms of chemotherapy, to treat theose affected.
A histiocyte is a normal immune cell that is found in many parts of the body especially in the bone marrow, the blood stream, the skin, the liver, the lungs, the lymph glands and the spleen. In histiocytosis, the histiocytes move into tissues where they are not normally found and cause damage to those tissues. These proliferating immune cells may form tumors, which can affect various parts of the body.
In children, histiocytosis usually involves the bones and may consist of single or multiple sites. The skull is frequently affected. Children over five years of age usually have the single system disease, with just bone involvement. Young children, especially infants, are more likely to have the multisystem disease.
Symptoms
The first sign of histiocytosis is often a rash on the scalp, similar to cradle cap. There may be a pain in a bone, discharge from the ear, loss of appetite and fever. Sometimes the stomach is swollen and painful. Occasionally, an area of the brain known as the pituitary gland is affected, and this can lead to the child passing large amounts of urine and being very thirsty. Other potential signs and symptoms include: weight loss, jaundice, vomiting, limping, short stature, delayed puberty, mental deterioration, headache, dizziness, seizures, protruding eyeballs, and/or a generalized rash.

In 2005, she had a minor role in the BBC adaptation of Charles Dickens' Bleak House. In 2011, she appeared in the first series of Psychoville. She also appeared in 8 episodes of the British Crime Drama Vera, from 2015–2017.
Career
She played the character Denny in Grange Hill between 1994–1996. Hammond did not star in any major roles again until 2004 when she played Tina in Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere. However, she had minor appearances in television programmes such as Holby City, Where the Heart Is and Casualty, and in the film Quills. Hammond also played the major role of the herald in the Royal Shakespeare Company revival of Marat/Sade in 2011.

In June 2015 Hammond appeared in BBC crime drama The Interceptor as a rental car salesperson.
EastEnders
On 19 March 2014, it was announced that the popular BBC long-running continuous drama EastEnders, had cast Hammond in the role of disabled market trader Donna Yates. The character of Donna was not originally going to be written into EastEnders as a disabled character, but Hammond impressed bosses at her audition, and was awarded the part. Donna is the second disabled regular in the soap, after Adam Best (David Proud) who left the show in 2010. Speaking of her casting, Hammond said: "I'm really excited to join the cast of EastEnders. It's a great opportunity to be a part of such a big and popular show. Donna is a bit of a handful but they're always the most fun characters to play! It feels good to be bad!" Donna's storylines have included: her fierce attitude, which often runs her into arguments; the introduction of her family; and a relationship with Fatboy (Ricky Norwood). Lisa decided to leave the soap in 2018 to pursue other roles. Her last appearance in EastEnders was on 20 July 2018, when Donna was seen leaving in the back of a black cab.
Personal life
Hammond grew up with a restricted growth condition. She revealed in October 2015 that she has received abuse from strangers in the street because of her disability. She spoke about how her wheelchair use received backlash from the public. "The main image of wheelchair users is that of paralysis. So when I get out of my chair to do a scene on my feet, people don't like it. If I'm feeling good and want to walk in that scene, I will. But if I can't or pain levels are bad then I'll use my chair. I've been shouted at. I've had people say, 'Oi, why are you in a chair when you were walking on EastEnders last night?'" Hammond also revealed how she had received criticism like this before joining EastEnders and that she can struggle with this backlash. "People always think I'm this feisty girl and I can hold my own but in those moments you just don't think of anything to say. It's shock and disbelief. I have to laugh it off."
On 7 September 2017, she participated in the documentary series Who Do You Think You Are? and discovered that her maternal side originally came from Wales.

841990 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blind%20Ambition | Blind Ambition | "Blind Ambition" is the 3rd episode of Family Guys 4th season. It was first broadcast on the Fox network on May 15, 2005. The episode was written by Steve Callaghan and Chuck Klein is the director of the episode. The episode is about Peter Griffin going blind after trying to get a world record.
Story
Mort Goldman gets popular for getting the highest possible score in bowling. Lois goes to the bowling alley and is shocked to see Glenn Quagmire watching her in a bathroom. Quagmire gets arrested but is freed by his neighbor Joe Swanson. Lois and other wives in her neighborhood want Quagmire taken away from the neighborhood. They later say they will let him stay if he stops harassing women. They help Quagmire control himself using operant conditioning (learning about the consequences of one's behaviors). They take Quagmire to a shopping mall. Quagmire sees cheerleaders in a fountain and starts to feel worried. He finds a room with video cameras of women in changing rooms. He sees a woman having a heart attack in one of the cameras. He runs to the woman and does CPR. Quagmire gets awarded for saving the woman from dying.
Peter feels sad because his friends have had success, but he says he has not. He thinks he will be famous if he gets a world record for eating the most nickels. He tries to eat many nickels, but gets poisoned and goes blind. Peter gets a guide dog and goes to a bar. He ties the dog's leash to a homeless person thinking it is a parking meter. He goes to the bar and does not know it is burning. He saves the bartender from the fire and is called a hero by a news anchor. Peter gets new eyes from the homeless person he tied his guard dog to.
Production
Family Guy was first cancelled after its 3rd season. 5 scripts were made in 2001 for if Family Guy was brought back by the Fox network. "Blind Ambition" was made from one of the scripts. This is the second episode where Peter and Ernie the Giant Chicken get in a fight. This was supposed to be shown in the episode "The Cleveland-Loretta Quagmire". That episode was too long to show them fighting, so it was put in "Blind Ambition". Some parts of this episode were made but not broadcast. One of these was during Quagmire trying to control himself, where Brian Griffin uses a forklift to carry pornographic magazines away from Quagmire's house.
Many people called David Goodman to say they did not like blind Peter seducing his son Chris thinking he is Lois. Chris Sheridan said that people were also not happy with Quagmire watching Lois in the bathroom. The Fox network can not use the words "Jesus Christ" if they are not talking about Jesus himself. One part of the episode shows God saying "Jesus Christ!" when he accidentally kills a person. Jesus was put in the episode with God so that the part of the episode can be broadcast.
Reception
The episode was seen by about 9.26 million people when it was first broadcast.
Kevin Wong from PopMatters said that the episode was better than the 4th season's first two episodes. Mike Drucker from IGN thought that Peter and Ernie's fight was funny in the first episode they were in, but said it was not interesting this time. However, Drucker liked the reference to Star Wars at the end of the episode.

842089 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega-6%20fatty%20acid | Omega-6 fatty acid | Omega-6 fatty acids are a family of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Some medical research notes that high levels of omega-6 fatty acids from seed oils may increase the chance for a number of diseases. However, having non-rancid nuts, which are high in omega-6, is associated with lower risk for some diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, stroke, heart attacks and certain cancers.
Modern Western diets often have ratios of omega-6 to omega 3 higher than 10. Some are as high as 30. The normal ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 in the Western diet is 15–16.7, mainly from vegetable oils.
Dietary sources
Vegetable oils are a major source of omega-6 linoleic acid. Worldwide, more than 100 million metric tons of vegetable oils are extracted annually from palm fruits, soybean seeds, rape seeds, and sunflower seeds, providing more than 32 million metric tons of omega-6 linoleic acid and 4 million metric tons of omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid.
Dietary sources of omega-6 fatty acids include:
poultry
eggs
nuts
hulled sesame seeds
cereals
durum wheat
whole-grain breads
pumpkin seeds
most vegetable oils including
grape seed oil
evening primrose oil
borage oil
blackcurrant seed oil

The most common sources for plant oils are walnuts, hemp oil and flaxseed oil. Sources of animal omega-3 fats include eggs, squid oils and fish.
Dietary supplementation does not affect the risk of cancer, heart disease or death.
They are not a main treatment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism and other developmental disabilities. However, omega-3 supplements are often given to children with these conditions.
